Mission Flow - Vol 2 Chapter 156
Mission Liu Shenhao Chapter 156 Reason
Jeremy Kepper is fifty-two years old, Jewish. Hollywood Jews are very powerful. But not all Jewish people do well.
Ordinary producers like him who work in Fox can’t catch up with the big olds such as the big director Spielberg, the award-winning master Harvey Weinstein, etc. Not to mention tycoons like David Geffen and Merck.
What he wants to do now is to “fudge” the hot Chinese money in front of him to invest in the film project he leads.
He and his friends have inquired about this: this young Chinese boss claims to be a master of the stock market. He has recently made a lot of money in the US stock market, and has an industry in China’s Internet. Coming to Hollywood is purely for ticketing.
Just think, who spends $1 million on party fees just to open a studio?
This is simply a splurge!
And he has to pay for his fourth child’s college expenses, as well as his and his wife’s insurance and daily expenses. He has to work hard like a bee every day.
…
Jeremy Keppel put away his thoughts and explained: “Mr. Cao, in the 1940s and 1950s, Hollywood was indeed as you thought. dock.
The Big Five had their own theaters at that time. With the end of World War II, the Department of Justice began to intensify its antitrust efforts, which led to the introduction of the Paramount Act. The movie giants had to choose to keep the distribution system and sell the theaters.
However, with the coming to power of President Reagan in the 1980s and the implementation of neoliberalism, the major movie giants began to break through the restrictions of the Paramount Act and continued to merge and acquire shares in major theater chains.
Form a cross, you have me, I have your theater pattern. This has actually formed a new de facto vertical monopoly.
Hollywood’s independent studios have produced twice as many productions as the Big Six. But they couldn’t get the first round of screening rights in theaters. The living environment is very bad.
The major movie giants do not seek to control a certain theater chain. The more important reason is that with the continuous increase of production costs, in fact, ten years ago, there was no movie in Hollywood that could make money from the box office alone!
A blockbuster movie is more dependent on the income brought by DVD, showing on TV, surrounding derivatives and other channels. And that’s exactly what’s happening in the publishing world!
The six major Hollywood companies are not just film companies, but media groups one by one. Involved in television, newspapers, Internet, main parks, derivatives development and other businesses.
Therefore, independent production companies cannot shake the status of the Big Six! Unless you become a new media group. But how can there be so much space for you now? Instead, it is Silicon Valley companies such as Netflix, Amazon, Facebook, and Snapchat that are hitting the top six in Hollywood. I don’t know exactly.
That’s what Hollywood says now. ”
There is a saying within Fox that executives believe that with rising production costs, it must be large enough to handle future competition. Fox is preparing to buy Warner, which has been losing money every year.
“Netflix, Amazon, Facebook?” Cao Su thoughtfully took a sip of coffee. He was surprised to hear that these Silicon Valley technology companies would be the rivals of Hollywood’s Big Six! And it has already made Hollywood practitioners feel it.
This thing needs to be studied carefully.
Anyone who is engaged in the Internet knows that basically any new ideas from the Internet in the United States will be immediately copied by their domestic counterparts, and then they will tell the Chinese version of the story and get listed on Wall Street.
Can he imitate in China?
And, Hollywood movie giants!
How cool would it be if he could secretly acquire one? This way of writing is often found in rebirth and entertainment articles.
Covering the skins of many shell companies and adding various agents to achieve the purpose of vertical and horizontal in the American political arena and business circles. But to be honest, according to the strength of the intelligence empire of the United States, if you want to check it, you can definitely check it!
No matter what the agent is, let the intelligence services of the United States keep an eye on it, and sooner or later, you will be exposed. No one is so loyal because of money. Especially the selfishness evolved from the law of the jungle in European and American culture, people do not kill themselves.
Therefore, Shenhao Jinggao, who has an unlimited card, will no longer set foot in the Five Eyes alliance after 2018, so as to avoid being assassinated or detained.
But he is different.
He is a **** with a system, and maybe the system will give him a surprise.
Of course, now is not the time to think about it. He first dealt with the three scripts in front of him. He just scanned it with the [Project Detector], and he was confident.
Jeremy-Kepel saw Cao Su thinking, drinking coffee, the taste turned out to be very good, he waited slowly, and then heard Cao Su say: “Mr. Keppel, your three scripts, I only like two.
“The Martian” adapted from a web novel, and this “Women Spy”. How much money are you going to take from the Cactus Company? ”
Jeremy Keppel was overjoyed when he heard it, his face was calm, and he smiled and said: “Mr. Cao, if you invest, it can be jointly produced by Cactus and Fox, and the distribution will be done by Fox.
It can also be produced by Fox, with Cactus overseeing the finances and only participating in the movie box office dividends. ”
Cao Su couldn’t help laughing, took a sip of coffee, dialed the outside line, and ordered, “Betty, come in and see off the guests for me.”
When I’m an idiot!
Investment dividends?
Hollywood giants will pay you dividends? You are probably not dreaming. They are famous for their Hollywood bookkeeping. Obviously it is a movie with a big box office, and it can give you the result of the loss of the whole project.
“Okay, Mr. Cao!”
Jeremy Keppel stood up with Cao Su in astonishment, and hurriedly said, “Mr. Cao, if you are not satisfied with the way of cooperation, we can talk again.”
Baimeng Book
Cao Su smiled and said, “Kepel, I am very optimistic about these two scripts, especially the sci-fi book “Mars for Help”. I originally planned to invest 30 million US dollars in the initial stage. But you take me for a fool!”
“No, I didn’t.” Jeremy Kepper skillfully denied it three times. When he wanted to say something else, Secretary Betty had already walked in, and he could only leave in frustration.
…
…
After dealing with chores in the morning, Cao Su instructed Joel Galton, the general manager of Cactus Company, to continue to pay attention.
“I will, Mr. Cao!” Joel Galton, who was from a canning company, assured him and sent Cao Su downstairs.
Uncle Hurley watched as a Cactus Company Mercedes-Benz waited on the side of the street.
Cao Su and Joel Galton shook hands and said goodbye, and drove back to the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills. His project rover shows that The Martian is a big deal. Definitely a box office hit. Belongs to the A-level project.
Americans just love watching science fiction! Watch Americans save the planet. UU reading www.uukanshu. com However, as far as the Ansana virtues are concerned…
As a Chinese, he still likes to watch “Three-Body Problem”. Watch the Chinese save the planet.
And “The Spy” also has a very objective ROI. It is estimated that the box office may exceed 100 million.
But he can’t be in a hurry now. In a hurry, he showed his timidity in front of Fox’s producers.
You have to show the energy of a seasoned hunter.
Back at the Four Seasons Hotel, it was almost lunch time. Cao Su, Cosine, and Gu Yichuan met in the Japanese restaurant on the third floor of the hotel, each with a female companion. The female companions beside them had been replaced by supermodels who had flirted with them the night before.
And Cao Su’s female companion is naturally Qiao Mei.
Cao Su repeated the matter and said, “I will probably stay in the United States for a while now to implement the two film projects. What are you two going to do?”
Cosine restrained the urge to ask Sister Qiao for an autograph, and said, “Look at Brother Chuan’s arrangement.”
At the age of thirty-four, Gu Yichuan said with a smile: “Mr. Cao, you are really a strong man in business! Since we came out together, we naturally go back together. However, we play almost the same classic in Los Angeles.
I went to New York with my brother Cosine to watch the Miss America finale. Let’s keep in touch. However, if you have a top-notch party here, remember to call us back! ”
This is an implicit compliment to Cao Su.
Cao Su laughed, “Brother Chuan, you are very confident in me!”
“That is required!”
Cao Su smiled and raised his glass, drinking with Gu Yichuan and Cosine.
He now has $15.5 million in his pocket and wants to make a name for himself in Hollywood. Isn’t that bullshit? But he does have the confidence to do it. +Bookmark+
