But to distribute the profits to Steve Kevin, this is what he does not want.
After thinking clearly, Allen came up with his own idea.
"Movie rights can be sold to you cheaply, but Hasbro has to enjoy a profit share."
Kevin frowned and confirmed:
"How can you enjoy profit sharing?"
Emma answered:
"Hasbro does not make any investment, and the film copyright is sold to you for 500 million US dollars, with a time limit of 20 years, and after the first film is released, Hasbro enjoys 30.00% of the film's pure profit share."
Greed flashed in Emma's eyes.
He is very clear about how profitable the movies directed by Steve Kevin are.
As a practitioner in the film-related industry, he has more or less heard some of the details.
Because of this, Steve Kevin was determined to attach importance to Transformers, so he opened his mouth wide. Of course, he only dared to take the first bite.
Hear Emma's words.
A look of displeasure flashed across Kevin's face.
500 million US dollars, this copyright price is undoubtedly a sky-high price, let's not mention this for now.
Although it is expensive, it is actually not much money.
When it comes to the 30.00% pure profit sharing of Transformers and special forces, this is too greedy.
Is this treating him as a winner?
Kevin suddenly had a calculation in his heart.
If they are willing to do business well, then Kevin will naturally not treat Hasbro badly.
But since he was taken for a fool when he came up, don't blame Kevin for using Hollywood's rules to disgust Hasbro.
How much net profit is, this is all operable.
Hollywood film companies have cheated many overseas investors by using this method.
Kevin still remembers that in later generations, Warner Bros. used to operate the Harry Potter sequel movie at a loss.
However, even at a loss, Warner still had a lot of fun filming the sequel.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Warner Bros. is robbing investors of their money. Even though they are making money, Warner claims they are losing money.
This not only cheats investors, but also saves tax.
Of course, this kind of thing will also damage the reputation of the company. Generally speaking, Hollywood film companies will not do too much.
It is normal for a profit of 5000 million US dollars to be made into [-] million US dollars.
But it will never turn a profit into a loss.
Therefore, this kind of thing has always been the default unspoken rule of the insiders. Outside the circle, there is only speculation, but no one has ever been able to hammer it out.
Kevin used to follow the attitude of win-win cooperation, and basically would not play tricks on it.
But Emma's words made him think, and he was ready to kill Hasbro.
If you are greedy, then naturally I will not hold back.
However, Kevin naturally couldn't agree to such a harsh condition, which would be tantamount to telling Allen that he was going to cheat.
I saw Kevin's face as usual, and said lightly:
"President Allen, don't you think you are too greedy?"
"It's okay to sell the copyright expensively, 30.00% of the net profit is too much."
Kevin's reply made Alan overjoyed.
As the saying goes, the one who bargains is the buyer.
With such harsh conditions, Steve Kevin left without turning his head, which shows that he has taken a fancy to Transformers and special forces.
He became excited at the thought of 30.00% net profit.
I was overjoyed, but Allen's face didn't change much.
It's going to kill Steve Kevin, and laughing in his face is going too far.
Allen said:
"Director Kevin, I don't think it's too much. Transformers and Special Forces are big IPs that Hasbro has cultivated over the years."
"In the United States, it is a childhood memory of generations. The movie adapted from it will definitely be a big hit."
Allen's face clearly showed that the condition of killing him was not relaxed.
Kevin's face remained unchanged, but he just nodded, as if he was convinced by Allen's words, and then said:
"There is also a certain reason. I can accept this condition, but I want 500 years for the film copyright purchased for US$40 million."
Allen pretended to hesitate, and after more than ten seconds, he said:
"Then let's make a deal."
"it is good!"
After a brief chat, Kevin left Hasbro.
Standing at the door of Hasbro, Kevin sneered before heading elsewhere.
The specific business negotiations will be discussed later by the team, and he is just doing a preliminary discussion now.
But he is ready to make Transformers 0 profit.
If it loses money, it will easily affect his reputation, but if it makes 0 profit, it will be easier for people to know that he deliberately cheated Hasbro.
Afterwards, he took out the contract between the two parties, proving that Hasbro was too dark, in exchange for understanding from public opinion.
In this way, the slight loss of reputation was saved.
After going to the company, he explained these negotiations to Dawson.
Kevin went to the WWE arena again, looking for a future big star.
·····
A daily match of the WWE.
Locke, who is the future Dwayne Johnson, is fighting very anxiously with the opposite wrestler.
After several struggles, Johnson punched the enemy in the head, and the enemy fell to the ground on the spot.
Johnson turned around on the ring, made a muscle-defining movement, and shouted angrily:
"I am the invincible Locke!"
Countless screams sounded at the scene, fascinated by Johnson's charm.
After making a series of exit performances, Johnson left the field.
After taking a shower and getting dressed, Johnson was about to leave here to have a big meal, when the agent came over and stopped him.
"what happened?"
The agent's face was very excited, which made Johnson a little confused.
"The opportunity you want is here. Steve Kevin is outside the game right now. He just watched your game and wants to invite you to play in a movie."
"Who invited me?"
Johnson froze for a moment.
Steve Kevin, this is a well-known director in Hollywood, he is looking for himself.
Suffering from the short career life of a wrestler, Johnson, who has been looking for opportunities for transformation, suddenly became excited as if he had met God.
"Take me there!"
Chapter 278 Fast and Furious Movie Series
Johnson couldn't wait to say.
The manager nodded and hurriedly led the way.
····
Dinner has always been the highlight of a day's meals in the West.
In order to express his importance to Johnson, Kevin specially chose a high-end western restaurant.
Of course, they are all men and don't talk about the atmosphere. Kevin directly arranged for two large tomahawk steaks, and then waited silently for Johnson to come over.
In the future, Johnson has become the No. 1 salary in Hollywood. It has to be said that he has unlimited potential.
Who would have imagined that such a muscular tough guy can play a tough guy and be funny, and at the same time, the warm drama is quite good.
This kind of person is not bad for the audience.
The way of acting is also very good.
There's almost nothing he can't do.
···
Under the leadership of the agent, Johnson soon came to the table where Steve Kevin was.
Looking at Steve Kevin who was sitting at the dining table with a strong aura and full of pressure, Johnson walked up to him carefully and said hello:
"Director Kevin, hello, I'm Johnson."
"sit."
Kevin waved his hand and signaled Johnson to sit down.
Johnson obediently sat across from Kevin, looking very reserved.
In terms of quick head and muscles, Johnson can beat Kevin twenty times, but in the United States, fists never mean anything.
Money is everything.
As one of the most important figures in Hollywood, Steve Kevin just appeared in front of Johnson, which made him feel full of pressure.
This is because he knows that Steve Kevin can completely change his destiny as long as he moves his hands.
And he desperately needed this opportunity.
The agent left silently.
This kind of matter, the specific matter, is left to them to discuss by themselves, and he, a relative of Johnson, should not get involved in it.
When the agent left, Kevin smiled and said:
"Come on, Johnson, eat and have a look. This is a $[-] Super Tomahawk Steak. I heard it's quite good. I haven't eaten it yet. Try it."
Although he is a well-known wrestler in WWE, his income is actually not high, about two hundred thousand dollars a year, which is not bad.
But compared to Hollywood, there is no doubt that it is very different.
He definitely couldn't afford a $[-] steak. No normal person would spend his month's salary on a big meal.
Steve Kevin invited him to eat this level of steak, and he was a little panicked.
"Thank you!"
Johnson, who couldn't figure out Kevin's specific thoughts, said thank you, and started eating steak.
Kevin also cut a small piece and ate a little bit, leaving the rest to the two bodyguards.
This can be regarded as the benefit of being his bodyguard.
During the meal, it was very silent, and Johnson didn't dare to speak rashly. He just kept eating until he finished a whole tomahawk steak, and then he let out a long sigh of relief.
It wasn't until this moment that Kevin spoke.
"Johnson, do you want to be an actor?"
"miss you!"
Johnson couldn't wait to say.
