Chapter 609 Protection Fee

China and South Korea have similar definitions of "national actors".

Those actors who are truly popular dramas can certainly be called "national actors". Son Ye-jin, Jeon Do-yeon (the only three European actresses in South Korea so far), Chungmuro ​​Troika, etc. are all South Korea's "national actors". Correspondingly

Yes, Zhao Yanzi, Liu Yifei, Chen Daoming, etc. are treated equally in China.

Both China and South Korea pursue the pursuit of entering Hollywood, being able to star in Hollywood movies, and being able to gild actors. This is the same for actors in both countries.

But there is something special about South Korea. If Korean actors can appear in Hollywood movies, they will be called "national actors."

Starring in a Hollywood movie is a recognized honor in their eyes - this is a similar sentiment in China.

That's why CJ, Lotte and others reacted so strongly to SM's recommendation of Lim Yoona to star in "Ex Machina".

Although a major film company did not promote any Korean actors to Hollywood after Lin Yoona, nor did it accept any investment from Korean capital.

But SM and Yoona Lin opened up the situation with this drama.

Cheng Yuan came to South Korea this time to stabilize the mood of South Korea's four major businessmen.

Cheng Yu'an will not approve the acquisition of Eucalyptus for the time being. It will have to be postponed until at least next year to let the studio finish filming all the movies in hand.

CJ's move is so obvious. The acquisition of the studio is fake, but the real intention is to get benefits from Cheng Yu'an.

They were certain that Cheng Yu'an would not give up the Korean market in the short term. If he wanted to continue operating, he would have to pay another tuition fee.

Therefore, Jianghu is not about fighting and killing; Jianghu is about human relations.

You can't overturn the table. How can we talk if the table is overturned?

Han Fang is a representative of various companies headed by Park Gentae, President of CJ China Headquarters.

The remote side is led by Cheng Yuan and Zhou Tiedong, president of the overseas business unit of YuanYang Film and Television.

Park Geun-tae started by hypocritically congratulating io for another successful movie.

Zhou Tiedong responded with a smile.

He has not been in charge of long-distance overseas business for a long time, but his more than ten years of overseas marketing experience has made him very comfortable in doing things.

He has also worked in the Korean market in the past ten years and has some understanding of Korean people's behavior.

So he doesn't have a good face towards the Koreans now. He is clearly using public opinion to fight against the Korean people and does not want them to become bigger and stronger in his homeland.

But this is better than India.

The Indian market is easy to enter, and its officials even encourage you to enter. After you enter, if you make some achievements, they will evict people or take over, even if the company does not agree. Do you think he will play with you according to market rules? No,

He will simply change the law and tell you to get out.

Therefore, the development of the potato market in India is the slowest in Asia and cannot be done quickly.

This meeting was held in the name of "Annual Summary and 2015 Partner Information Meeting" at the Shilla Hotel in Seoul.

Chinese and Korean media will be invited to participate in some activities, but this negotiation will not be publicized to the outside world.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, they officially entered the topic.

The four major Korean producers, represented by CJ, requested to take a stake in a major film company owned by Cheng Yuan. They were very willing to pay and offered a flat price of US$3 billion, as long as they did not participate in the management of the shares.

Cheng Yu'an got up and scolded Pu Gen for being too greedy: "There is no organizational or personnel relationship between a major film company and Yuan Yuan. Today is a remote meeting. If you have such an attitude, I will not continue the meeting."

"

People in suits and ties sat there sanctimoniously, each speaking more harshly than the other.

Cheng Yu'an didn't care and bullied others like this, so he was rude.

"The worst I can do is not do business in the Korean market, but Mr. Park, you have to think clearly about the consequences of doing so."

Pu Gentai thought that Cheng Yu'an would refuse, and their true purpose was yet to come, but he did not expect Cheng Yu'an to react so strongly.

Pu Gentai immediately comforted Cheng Yu'an: "Businesses are negotiated slowly, President Cheng, don't be so angry."

"I think you are not here to discuss business. If you have this attitude, we will return home immediately, Tiedong, let's go."

The two bosses were about to leave.

Pu Genta apologized hurriedly, saying that he had not thought carefully before and spoke arrogantly.

Cheng Yu'an and Zhou Tiedong also went down the slope: "I hope you can come up with a sincere cooperation plan instead of thinking about the snake swallowing the elephant and overturning the table so that no one can eat."

Park Geun-tae proposed their intention to cooperate. They wanted to sign an exclusive agreement with io and Tudou (Korea), which will be launched on New Year's Day.

But Cheng Yuan disagreed: "If the company wants to develop and grow, it must cooperate with various film producers. It is impossible to cooperate with just the four of you. There are many good small production companies in South Korea. Their distribution capabilities may not be enough, but

Sometimes good films can be produced, but we can't bet all our money on you."

io mainly cooperates with the four major producers such as CJ and Lotte. Tudou (Korea) mainly works online. He does not intend to be tied to the big four. Tudou (Korea) will vigorously support local small producers in order to balance the entire Korean market.

the security and stability of its own development.

The entire meeting lasted until evening, and Cheng Yu'an, Zhou Tiedong and their group walked out of the hotel with tired faces.

I was surrounded by Chinese reporters and asked if there was any substantive progress at the meeting.

Cheng Yu'an didn't want to speak, so Zhou Tiedong answered on his behalf: "Both sides value each other's cooperation. In today's meeting, we have reached consensus on the general direction, but some details of cooperation still need to be discussed in depth."

Reporters also understand that the meaning behind such words is that today's meeting was in vain and no results were achieved.

Cheng Yuan did not go back to China to accompany Liu Yifei at night because he was too tired. Liu Yifei also asked him on the phone not to fly around and rest in South Korea.

The meeting went on to the third day, which is the last day of 2014.

The two sides have only reached a few preliminary understandings so far.

CJ and Lotte each invested 25% to establish a new company. The new company connected with a major film company and was responsible for exporting Korean films overseas.

This is Cheng Yuan's new protection fee.

As for how to go to sea, we will discuss it later.

What io received was a $35 million interest-free loan from the new company for future production and operations.

Cheng Yuan received a promise from Park Gentae and others that he would try his best to ensure the operational safety of io and Tudou (Korea).

"We are operating normally. This has happened twice. I don't want it to happen a third time." Cheng Yu'an finally warned Park Genta sternly not to use this method to gain benefits from him again.

io operates legally, but because it has made huge profits in South Korea, it has been targeted twice by Korean public opinion. Each time, CJ and others used these public opinions to suppress io and gain benefits from Cheng Yu'an.

This kind of thing has been reported to the world and South Korea has no reason to say it. It is said that South Korea has a poor business environment, is not friendly to foreign businessmen, and does not allow foreign businessmen to make money in South Korea.

Park Geun-tae and others vowed to strengthen cooperation and supervision.
