Chapter 188 Sale

"Why, the evil hand of capitalism is finally reaching out to the motherland?"

Guo Muzhou had just come back from outside and heard them, teased, took off his suit and handed it to the butler, sat opposite the boy, waiting for dinner.

"Where are you going? The contract is signed now?" Han Xuan asked.

The old man also spoke: "What an evil hand? I am helping them create jobs and drive economic growth. Without foreign capital in, it will take many years for the economic transformation to be completed by just accumulating oneself."

The boy's grandfather nodded in agreement: "In the past, movies such as "The Voice of Music", "The First Drop of Blood" and Breakdancing entered China, but they just purchased the playback rights directly from the film company.

The government is in contact with the other side recently and has reached an agreement. Time Warner's "The Desperate World" will be released in China in the second half of the year and will be divided into accounts.

Hollywood responded very fiercely. The movies allowed to be introduced have requirements for the plot and quantity, and were almost divided up by several major film companies. Dimen Pictures has a small scale and can only watch them from the side.

China's population is close to 1.2 billion. When the economy improves, how big the tertiary industry is, it is terrible to think about it.

By the way, one thing that makes me wonder. China's box office revenue reached more than 200 million US dollars in 1991, and the average annual movie viewing was more than 10 times, but by 1992, it dropped."

"It's not because of piracy. TV shows are also rich, but the population base is too large. Just a small part of it supports genuine editions, and the number is also terrifying.

Movies cannot be put away, but supporting facilities can be made. The market is now small, part of which is because of the limit on the number of cinemas. The land price is now very cheap. Just waiting for the appreciation of the land is considered a good investment.

In recent years, the economic growth rate of mainland China has remained at about 13%. When residents have money, the cultural industry will rise rapidly and make advance arrangements to seize the initiative. Before the eight major film companies, it will be beneficial to expand the share of imported films there in the future."

After eating, Han Xuan wiped his mouth and said that he was not afraid of family thieves day and night. This sentence is about himself. If you understand the future trends in the country, you can easily dig your feet.

But he didn't blush. Instead of letting Hollywood controlled by Wall Street capture the market, it would be better to take advantage of myself, a "family" who is in Cao's camp and is in Han's mind.

"See if you have time next. If you have time, go with you. No one has taken care of the ancestral grave in your family for nearly a hundred years. I will go back and sing incense sticks and tell them that they have lived in the United States well and have not come in vain."

Guo Muzhou sighed and then looked at Han Xuan: "The contract has been signed long ago. Director Luc Besson also brought an art film here and found a cinema to watch it. It was much worse than "This Killer Not Too Cold", so I didn't buy it.

Later I gave me a script that was quite interesting. It was about science fiction. The estimated cost was 50 million US dollars. The French investor, Bastion, and I invested half of it alone. It was under Dimen Pictures. We discussed it until now and starved to death..."

It's almost time to rest.

After talking for a while, Han Xuan went upstairs to wash up first. He called his mother before going to bed. After being tired for a day, he fell asleep quickly.

A good night's dream is sleeping peacefully, and the morning light slowly kicks off.

A long queue was lined up early at the newsstand by the side of the road. A teenage boy with acne on his face said anxiously to the boss: "Why haven't you come yet? Didn't you agree to be seven o'clock?"

"The other books are shipped in advance. Random House Press will not give them this time. What can I do?" The boss covered his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I've booked 100 copies this time, and I will definitely have your share."

"But what should they do?"

The newsstand owner looked forward along the boy's fingers. In a few minutes, the team doubled instantly, and the number was definitely more than one hundred.

Yes, Harry Potter's third Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban will be released today.

The first Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was sold in European countries as early as October last year. From its lukewarm beginning, it gradually became accepted, and then its reputation became the European sales champion in the first two quarters of this year, and its reputation also spread to the United States.

Han Xuan heard the phone ringing in his sleep, and put it in his ear, saying, "Hey? Who is it?"

"Please speak English or German, I can't understand Chinese." Angelica's voice came out: "I'm still sleeping? The book is on sale today, don't you go and read it?"

"Today?" Han Xuan picked up the phone and looked at it. The screen showed August 24th, and then put it back in his ear: "I forgot, let's get up now!"

"I don't care at all. I only contacted you once during the summer vacation. I'll call you and go out and have a look.

I'm next to the newsstand in downtown Providence, forty or fifty people are queuing up here. If there weren't other books on sale or big news, I would be ready to buy your books. Congratulations..."

In March this year, Han Xuan authorized Teacher Angelica. Random House Press began to sell it on the American continent half a month later, and the first and second part were released at the same time.

The regular version is priced at $12.99, and the hardcover version is priced at $22. In more than five months, the first two ordinary versions sold more than 21 million copies in the United States, and the hardcover version was sold for more than 800,000 copies.

The European region is now translated into three main languages: French, German and Spanish. The first Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone European distribution rights are in the hands of Surkamp Publishing House. More than 16 million copies have been sold in the past eleven months.

With the opening of the road to Surkamp Publishing House, Random House in the United States has easily opened up the market there. In more than five months, the second "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" has easily sold over 10 million in more than 20 European countries and regions.

The average price of the "Harry Potter" series in Europe is about $15, and the share stipulated in the contract with Surkamp Press is 10%. In less than a year, Han Xuan received nearly $25 million in royalties, and he gave him 4.8 million after tax payment at the beginning of the year. After paying taxes, he could have nearly $18 million left.

Random Bookstore's US royalties score of Han Xuan was 20%, and other countries and regions dropped to 16.5% due to troubles in procedures.

The ordinary and hardcover versions in the United States earned him a total of about $58 million after tax. The second part of Random House in Europe has so far fallen into the pocket of South Korean Xuan. It should be said that it is about to fall in, because the money is still on the side of Random House, and he and his guardian need to get it in person.

Nowadays, the Internet is not on the rise. Apart from TV, movies, and books, there are only a handful of jobs that can pass the time, and the sales are quite amazing.

The two books are still making continuous profits. So far, Han Xuan has made more than 100 million US dollars from it. It was originally something to celebrate, but now he is thinking of a British woman.
