The Berlin Film Festival has not yet concluded, but various film sales activities are already in full swing. Little Red Horse Films was the first to sell the copyrights of "Fatal ID" and "The Pursuit of Happiness".
Both movies were sold to the American Macbeth Film Company. Jeffrey has been getting close to Zhang Tan these days, and the quotations he gave are relatively sincere. In addition, Zhang Tan really wants to establish a solid cooperative relationship with them.
So the price is not overwhelming.
Both movies adopt a bill-sharing model. Little Red Horse Film and Television’s share of the net box office is 25%. This ratio is already quite high. When Hollywood movies enter the country, the general bill-sharing ratio is around 35%. Little Red Horse Film and Television
It's only slightly lower than this.
Jeffrey's Macbeth Film and Television Company considered that the first release of a Chinese film was full of uncertainties, so it agreed to follow the account sharing model instead of the direct buyout model, so that risks and benefits are shared.
Zhang Tan, on the other hand, was very confident in "Fatal ID" and "The Pursuit of Happiness", so he abandoned the buyout model and agreed to the split-account model.
The two parties held a simple signing ceremony in the hotel conference room. As the only reporter present, Zhu Xiaojing interviewed and took photos of the cooperation between the two parties. When she returned to the hotel room, she wrote a report and sent it back to the TV station.
Different from Zhang Tan's full confidence, Li Qing and others are inevitably a little worried. In fact, according to their intention, they want to buy out directly and withdraw after getting a small sum of money. Who knows what the North American film market will do?
I won’t like these two movies of theirs.
It doesn’t mean that if a movie is good, the box office will be high.
The rights sold to Macbeth Company are not global rights, but European and American rights. The rights in Asia and Africa can continue to be sold by Little Red Horse Films.
The next day, Li Qing settled the copyright owner. Japan and South Korea followed the Hollywood model and adopted a 25% share ratio. As for East Asia, considering that the film market here is too fragmented and small, and the market environment is relatively complex, so
Directly adopted the buyout mode
style, sold to Thailand for 5 million yuan, to Singapore for 2 million yuan, to Malaysia for 4 million yuan, and to Indonesia for 3 million yuan. Scattered together, there were actually 26 million yuan, which almost covered the two movies.
Cost.
Based on this calculation, "Fatal ID" and "The Pursuit of Happiness" really made a lot of money, with profits doubled.
Half of the mission of coming to Berlin was completed. All that was left was to wait for the film festival to end and see if there was any hope of winning one or two awards so that "Our Summer" and "Saw" could be sold at a good price.
Japan and South Korea drooled over "Our Summer", while "Saw" made Jeffrey's eyes glow green with greed.
"Chainsaw" is not as good as "Fatal ID" and "The Pursuit of Happiness" in terms of quality. However, what Jeffrey sees is that this movie is clearly a series of works. If the first one can make money, then
We can film a second, third, and sequel series, and the value of this IP will be too great.
Jeffrey had always wanted to buy "Saw" and get first dibs on a sequel.
The closing ceremony of the film festival was arranged in the evening, and the creative teams of "Our Summer", "Saw" and "The Other Shoe" were all invited.
"If you want to walk on the red carpet, you all have to dress up beautifully."
After breakfast in the morning, Zhu Xiaojing and Tan Jiner were dressing up the children's outfits for the red carpet in the evening.
"I want to wear a princess dress." Cheng Cheng's voice was soft, and her father Meng Guangxin immediately made arrangements.
When Liuliu heard this, she immediately applied to Zhu Xiaojing: "I also want to wear a princess dress."
Zhu Xiaojing said unceremoniously: "You are not suitable for wearing a princess dress."
"You, you, you..." Liuliu was furious.
"Stop you, you, you, go and have some food and take a look at your belly."
"...What should I wear?"
"You fit in pants."
"*&%￥%#￥"
Is there anyone who is not suitable for wearing pants? What's the point?
Not only Cheng Cheng wore a princess dress, but Xi'er also wore one.
Xiaobai and Liuliu were envious. Xiaomi and Dudu did not wear princess dresses. It was not that they were not allowed to wear them, but that they did not want to wear them.
Xiaobai was filled with envy and clicked her tongue around Xiwawa and Cheng Cheng. Liuliu came to discuss with her, and the two strongly demanded that they also wear princess dresses.
In order to make them give up, Zhang Tan borrowed Cheng Cheng and Xi'er's dresses for them to try on.
The two of them hurriedly took their skirts to change. Cheng Cheng and Xi'er were a little worried.
"Will our skirts be worn out?" Xi'er said.
Xiaobai and Liuliu are obviously bigger than them, so what should I do if their little skirts are stretched out?
"Mine was taken away by Liliu." Cheng Cheng said quietly. She had more reason to worry. How could Liliu wear her little skirt? She was really worried that the skirt would be stretched.
Xiaobai and Liuliu didn't come out of the room for a long time. Xi'er and Cheng Cheng were really worried and went to check the situation, only to find Xiaobai trying to help Liuliu put on her skirt.
Cheng Cheng felt like he was going to have a heart attack. Her pink skirt was about to burst and it seemed that it would turn into various rags in the next moment.
"Hehe~~ I'm already dressed." Luoliu was a little embarrassed when she saw them appear. She took a deep breath and finally put the skirt on.
They came out of the room and stood in front of the mirror to look at themselves. Xiaobai looked around twice, remained silent, and quickly ran back to the room, consciously changing off her skirt.
She is very self-aware, and it is obvious that this skirt is not suitable for her, as it does not look as good as the pants.
But Liuliu has no self-awareness and wears Chengcheng's dress and asks people everywhere if she looks good.
"Liuliu, please don't damage Cheng Cheng's skirt. The buttons and zipper may be damaged," Xi'er said.
After hearing this, Liliu felt bad.
Xiaobai appeared next to her and told her to quickly change out of her skirt.
"Your mother is right, you are not suitable for wearing skirts."
Liuliu was unconvinced: "Then what should I wear?"
Everyone said in unison: "You are suitable for wearing pants."
Liuliu thought for a while, then reluctantly went back to the room and changed out of her skirt.
In the evening, a group of people left the hotel to walk on the red carpet. The luxury car arranged by the organizer was already waiting downstairs.
Tan Jin'er, Meng Guangxin and others did not go. They stayed in the hotel. Zhang Tan wore a black suit and a bow tie at the collar. Tan Jin'er bought it for him in Berlin. Wearing a tie would make him look too businesslike.
More suitable.
The group of girlfriends were all dressed up carefully, and Dudu was the most special. She also held a little beauty doll in her arms. She decided to take this little beauty to walk on the red carpet.
When Xiaobai saw this, he wanted to get a chicken, but he couldn't buy live chickens in Berlin.
Liuliu wanted to lead Xiaobai, but she didn't dare to say it, she could only think in her heart.
Also traveling with us are Yao Quan and Wan Kun from the "Our Summer" team, as well as Ding Jie, Peng Shuang, Wang Yanyun and Guo Jinhui from the "Saw" team.
The Girlfriends Group belongs to the creative team of "The Other Shoe", and they also have a role in "Our Summer".
Zhu Xiaojing also went along, but she only participated as a reporter to promote the report.
One car couldn't fit in, so they were divided into two cars. Zhang Tan and Yao Quan, Wan Kun and their girlfriends were in the front, and Ding Jie and others were behind.
The car drove slowly. The hotel was not far from the film festival site. It was only a few minutes away and we arrived quickly. The long roadside was crowded with movie fans and media reporters.
As soon as the car approached the drop-off point, I heard a crowd cheering. It was famous movie stars who got out of the car and were walking on the red carpet.
When it was Zhang Tan's car's turn, a staff member opened the door and asked them to get out.
