In fact, even if I didn’t know this before, I now know that the so-called drunkard’s intention is not to drink. Obviously, the main reason for this cocktail party is that He Tiancheng wants to talk to Li Yi and Li Zhenye.
p>
Sure enough, after the cocktail party was over.
He Tiancheng came over with another middle-aged man.
"Li Sheng, why don't Li Sheng and Xiao Li Sheng's movies come to Hong Kong stars for distribution? If "The Gift of Room No. 7" were fully distributed by Hong Kong stars, the box office would definitely be more than 300 million!" He Tiancheng looked at Li Zhenye and
Li Yi said.
Li Yi admitted that He Tiancheng was right, but saying this now is pure fart.
It is true that Li Zhenye did not look for Hong Kong stars at that time.
Firstly, it is because Hong Kong Star itself does not have a mainland distribution license, but that does not mean that if Hong Kong Star takes over the distribution, it will not be able to distribute in the mainland.
In fact, although Hong Kong Star does not have a mainland distribution license, Hong Kong Star does have many distribution companies with good cooperative relations in the mainland.
Therefore, when He Tiancheng said this, he was not bragging.
But the problem is still the same. At that time, Hong Kong stars must be able to watch it!
"Boss He is engaged in big business. We are just making small fuss and don't dare to trouble Boss He." Li Zhenye said with a smile.
"A three-billion-yuan business is not a small deal as Li Sheng said!" He Tiancheng looked at Li Zhenye and said with a smile.
"Haha, that was just an accident. After all, we didn't expect the final box office to reach 300 million." Li Zhenye laughed and laughed.
"Okay, let's not mention this. I heard that Director Li already has an idea for a new movie?" He Tiancheng looked at Li Yi with a smile and asked.
Li Yi was startled when he heard this, and then nodded.
He was not surprised as to how He Tiancheng knew that he had an idea for a new movie.
After all, he is also a director with a box office of 300 million yuan. If He Tiancheng is interested in paying attention to him, he will naturally get the news.
"It's just an idea, not perfect yet." Li Yi admitted it directly.
He does not exclude cooperation. Of course, it depends on the method and conditions of cooperation.
"As long as you have ideas, Hong Kong stars are very optimistic about Director Li's new film. Is Director Li interested in cooperating with me?" He Tiancheng asked with a smile.
"Oh? Thanks for Boss He's favor, but I don't know how Boss He wants to cooperate?" Li Yi asked noncommittally.
"Comprehensive cooperation!" He Tiancheng looked at Li Yi and said.
"Boss He, please give me more details."
He Tiancheng said with a smile: "Leave the movie to the Hong Kong stars. Director Li only needs to be responsible for the filming. The Hong Kong stars can take care of the funding, actors, and movie promotion!"
To be honest, Li Yi was a little surprised by He Tiancheng's appetite.
However, it is definitely impossible for him to accept it.
"Sorry, Boss He, we only accept cooperation in film promotion and distribution. There is no demand for other aspects at the moment." Li Yi shook his head and said.
Sometimes, there is really no need to be polite.
"Li Sheng, Director Li, you should know that it is a taboo in the industry for a director to invest in his own movie, especially fully invest in his own movie. After all, no one can guarantee that the movie will be a hit. Moreover, professional matters cannot be paid.
The right answer is to let professionals do it."
"Director Li is talented and can focus on filming. He doesn't need to be responsible for the profit and loss of the movie, and he doesn't need to worry about things other than the movie. Isn't that good?" He Tiancheng continued.
Li Yi was unmoved, shook his head and said: "Sorry, Boss He, we only accept cooperation in publicity and development. Even if it is investment, we only accept cooperative financial investment."
He Tiancheng's face changed, but he quickly returned to his smile.
"How much investment is Director Li willing to transfer?" He Tiancheng asked again.
"We are not short of funds for small-cost movies, so it depends on how much help investors can provide." Li Yi said, neither humble nor arrogant.
Now, there is really no shortage of investment in his movies, and "Mom Love Me Again" is also only a small-budget movie, with a production cost of several million or tens of millions, which is quite sufficient.
With the box office revenue share of "The Gift of Room No. 7" at the bottom, he really has no shortage of investment.
He Tiancheng nodded: "Half of the investment share, Hong Kong Star fully supports Director Li's new film! We can discuss the details slowly!"
Li Yi shook his head and said: "Sorry, we can accept no more than 30% of the investment amount at most! At the same time, investors must bear the issuance costs!"
Li Yi's conditions are harsh, but it also depends on what kind of movie it is.
The total investment in his movie is not high. If it were not for better distribution, he would not give up the investment quota at all.
Maybe he will let it go in the future, but at least not now.
He Tiancheng's face changed slightly when he heard this, he looked at Li Yi and said with a smile: "It seems that Director Li is very confident in his new movie, but is this condition a bit too harsh?"
Li Yi shook his head and said: "Since Boss He wants to invest in my movie, it also shows that Boss He has full confidence in my new movie. And, to be honest, the 30% quota is not low.
After all, my movies are just small-budget productions."
He Tiancheng glanced at the middle-aged man next to him, then turned around and said: "Thirty percent of the investment amount, the publicity and distribution costs will be settled independently!"
"Director Li, don't refuse in a hurry. Hong Kong Star is not a small company like Oceanwide Films. This condition is already very sincere. Director Li can consider it again. After all, there are many factors that affect the box office of a movie, such as the right
Schedule, such as publicity resources, competitors, etc.!" He Tiancheng said directly.
""The Gift of Room 7" was an unexpected explosion, so the film was already released when competitors at the same time did not make any efforts. But now, I believe that many people are paying attention to Director Li's new film. By then, it may not be released.
It can be so smooth, and if we cooperate with Hong Kong Star, these will not be problems!" He Tiancheng looked at Li Yi thoughtfully and said.
Li Yi felt a cross in his heart.
He Tiancheng's appetite is too big. And what do the last words mean? It sounds like he is reminding Li Yi that "The Gift of Room No. 7" broke out purely because, before that, no one regarded him as a real opponent.
However, Li Yi’s new movie is different.
But the problem is that although what He Tiancheng said is the truth, there is an implicit threat in it.
Thirty percent of the investment amount, to be honest, is a matter of several million at most.
And there will be a share of the announcement and distribution in the future, which means that Li Yi has to give up at least half of the benefits.
If it were the previous "Gift from Room No. 7", Li Yi would have accepted the conditions offered by Hong Kong Star.
But things are different these days.
"The Gift of Room No. 7" is a small and broad-based film, which was both well-received and a hit.
Li Yi already has capital.
Although Hong Kong Star is indeed much stronger than Fanhai Film and Television, it is impossible for Hong Kong Star to really invest all its resources in its own movies.
However, Fanhai Film and Television did not mention any investment at all, and the distribution share was also reduced to the minimum.
Although this is largely due to the fact that Mu Nanxing and Oceanwide Films are in urgent need of high-quality projects, so making concessions cannot be regarded as the norm.
But the conditions are much better than those of Hong Kong Star.
