"Understand, understand!"

"Director Su, you're welcome!"

The bosses all said politely.

These people are not fools. They know very well that since even the Ministry of Culture has intervened in this matter, the focus is definitely not on internal issues in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Moreover, the people attending this meeting were the CEOs of entertainment companies who cooperated with Suo Li. Needless to say, they knew that this matter must have something to do with Suo Li.

Sure enough, after Su Changde finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Xiao.

Zhang Xiao understood, coughed, and said: "Boss, I don't like to talk nonsense. Suo Li built Yuan in China and used a low-interest loan of 200 million US dollars to buy the distribution rights of your movie. It was obviously with ulterior motives.

"

"Recently, everyone knows that they let "Battle of Chibi" and "Zhu Xian" compete in the arena. However, I dare to say that this is just the beginning. Next, it will most likely be the turn of other companies of yours. My

It means that I hope you can cancel your cooperation with Suo Li."

A boss said with a wry smile: "Mr. Zhang, I'm not afraid of your jokes. According to the agreement we signed with Suo Li, we must spend 200 million US dollars to take back the distribution rights of the movie."

"If we can get this money now, we will have to break our muscles and bones. If we don't do it right, we will go bankrupt."

Another boss said: "Yeah, since the "Battle of Red Cliff" thing happened, who doesn't want to get the distribution rights back, but there is really no money on hand!"

Others also complained one after another, probably meaning that they now have no money.

Zhang Xiao knew that these people were the ones who would never betray anyone without seeing the benefits, so he said: "I can use the same interest to pay you 200 million U.S. dollars to help you take back the distribution rights of the movie."

"What conditions?" Everyone focused their attention on Zhang Xiao.

Everyone knows that there is no free lunch in the world, and they want to hear what conditions Zhang Xiao gave.

At this time, Yang Mi said: "We know that you have a quota of eight movies every year, and you can get at least 15% of the film scheduling rate of Suoli Cinema. Our condition is very simple, that is, you have the quota of these eight movies

Four departments were allocated to us, and two staff members were allocated to us on Qingtian."

"Everyone can rest assured that as long as the movies you make are good enough and the attendance rate is high enough, our Sunny Cinemas will also give you a super high number of movies."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, these bosses immediately became interested and said one after another: "Okay, no problem, I agree."

"I agree too!"

"Yes, yes, of course we all agree on such a good thing."

After everyone expressed their opinions, Yang Mi continued: "The second condition is that the loan must be repaid in four years, with an annual amount of 20 million U.S. dollars plus corresponding interest, and you must use the shares of your respective companies as guarantee."

"During this period, the online copyrights of the film and television works you produced will be handed over to Qingtian for release. The specific profit distribution method is the same as the rules set by Qingtian Video website."

Regarding this condition, the bosses quickly agreed: "Anyway, the Internet copyright is given to everyone, and the distribution of benefits to Qingtian is the same, so I agree."

"Okay! No problem."

“···”

"The third condition is that other than Huayi, major companies cannot have any form of cooperation with Chen Gang and Chen Feng."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, Wang Jun trembled all over, looked at Yang Mi and said, "Mr. Yang, are you going to ban Chen Gang?"

At this time, Zhang Xiao said calmly: "What we mean is that cooperation between directors and actors is okay, but investment in Chen Gang's film and television works is not allowed. As for Chen Feng, it is not allowed at all."

Yang Mi nodded and said: "We have these three conditions. If there are no problems, we can sign the contract now."

Wang Jun's face looked extremely ugly at this moment, but there was nothing he could do.

The fate of "The Battle of Red Cliff" depends on Zhang Xiao's thoughts, and Wang Jun does not have any bargaining chips to negotiate with Zhang Xiao.

As for the bosses of other companies, they fully support the third condition. Although Chen Gang is one of the three major directors in China, he has only made films for Huayi in his life. In recent years, all the films invested by their production companies have been filmed by Chen Gang.

Defeated.

Now that they saw Zhang Xiao proposing such conditions, they naturally agreed without any questions.

Besides, between Chen Gang and Zhang Xiao, even a fool knows to choose Zhang Xiao, how can he possibly side with Chen Gang?

Whether it is his directing ability or his filmmaking ability, Zhang Xiao is far ahead of Chen Gang.

Even Chen Gang and other production companies are enemies. Zhang Xiao's blocking of Chen Gang's investment does not bring any harm to these production companies, but is actually a good thing.

"I agree!"

"Our company has never had the opportunity to invest in a film directed by Chen Da, so we agreed."

"Okay, this is no problem at all."

“···”

After hearing what these bosses said, Yang Mi smiled and said, "Since everyone agrees, I wish us a happy cooperation."

“A pleasure to work with.”

Except for Wang Jun, the other bosses took advantage of each other, so they all had bright smiles on their faces.

Two hours later, everyone signed a contract with Qingtian Entertainment.

Zhang Xiao took out a check on the spot and handed over 200 million US dollars to the CEOs of the top ten entertainment companies.

After everything was settled, Zhang Xiao walked up to Wang Jun and said: "Mr. Wang, I will announce the change of schedule of "Zhu Xian" tonight. How you "Battle of Chibi" can reverse the unfavorable situation is up to you.

I'm capable, but I only have one request, and that is that Qingtian and I cannot be used for publicity."

"If there is a media interview, I will not say a good or bad word to you. Of course, I will not say a bad word to you."

Wang Jun asked: "If it is published overseas, can you criticize it?"

Zhang Xiao said: "The theater chain I have in hand will give you 15% of the film schedule in the first two days. If the attendance rate is high and the box office is good, I will increase the response to "Battle of Red Cliff" based on the actual situation.

Arrange films."

"On the contrary, if "Battle of Red Cliff" doesn't work, you can't blame me. After all, I have to take care of the interests of other shareholders."

After hearing this, Wang Jun nodded quickly and said, "Okay, thank you very much."

Zhang Xiao is a shareholder of the four major theater chains: Disney, Warner, Universal, and Sunny. He is able to spend 15% of the film schedule. This is the first time in the history of overseas distribution of domestic films.

This shows that Zhang Xiao is still very sincere in his support for domestic films.

The Department of Culture is also very happy to see the signing of this contract. Not only has the distribution rights of the top ten film production companies been taken back, but Zhang Xiao has also taken over the other party.

Forty movies every year, a 15% film scheduling rate, is enough to give Suoli a headache. Originally, the Department of Culture was a little worried that the theater chain built by Suoli would affect the development of the Chinese film market. Now that Zhang Xiao is so

After some practice, it turned out to be a good thing.

After Zhang Xiao returned home, he immediately contacted Disney CEO Herman.
