Chapter 64: Borrowing the help of Warner to promote the reputation of domestic films

"So Lao Xu, are you planning to let Huashi Media be responsible for overseas distribution and screening?"

He Feiyang asked.

"A little confused."

Xu Nuo couldn't help but frowned.

Warner only wanted to buy the overseas distribution rights of "Terminator" for US$10 million, which was indeed too little money for Xu Nuo.

But Xu Nuo had to consider another issue.

That is, if the overseas distribution rights of "Terminator" are given to Warner, with Warner's energy, it will naturally be unmatched by Huashi Media. When "Terminator" is released overseas, it will have a large scale of release.

In this way, more foreigners can know about the domestic science fiction movie "Terminator", as well as the producer Real Media Technology Company and director Xu Nuo behind it.

"What are you struggling with?"

In the future, more movies produced by Xu Nuo will naturally be released much more smoothly around the world.

Sell ​​it to Warner to expand overseas markets. Although you may lose some money at the box office, Xu Nuo is not short-sighted. A "Terminator" has opened up the reputation of domestic movies. When the next "Transformers" is released overseas

, then it is probably overwhelming.

Guan Ju's voice suddenly sounded.

Xu Nuo gave Guan Ju a calculation task instruction.

Xu Nuo agreed.

Xu Nuo really wants to use Warner's help to make "Terminator" expand the overseas market of domestic films.

"Lao Xu, can Guan Ju really be able to count everything?"

Having opened up the overseas market for domestic films with "Terminator", the next "Transformers" I am filming will have a better overseas environment. When the time comes, I will let Huashi Media distribute it and sign a box office sharing agreement.

, with the market space created by "Terminator", it will be able to earn more box office revenue from foreigners.

He Feiyang knew Xu Nuo.

Xu Nuo consulted Guan Ju.

"I do believe that "Terminator" will perform much better overseas than previous domestic films. However, before this, our domestic films did not gain a foothold in overseas markets."

"Xiao Wen, you are so stupid." He Feiyang said with a smile: "Old Xu is indeed thinking at a deeper level than we just did. We only saw the immediate benefits, and if we take a longer view, it will be clearer.

."

At this time, Wen Ruohan's belated voice came again on the phone.

Wen Ruohan was almost stunned by the words of her boss and Mr. He.

After weighing the two aspects, Xu Nuo must make a choice that is more beneficial to the future.

"Let me check. Sir, according to the box office data of domestic films released overseas over the years, there are 0 films with a box office of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, one film with a box office of more than 80 million U.S. dollars, two films with a box office of more than 50 million U.S. dollars, and more than

There are 5 movies with a box office of more than 20 million US dollars, and 15 movies with a box office of more than 10 million US dollars."

Since there are tangles, it means that even if Warner chooses to get overseas distribution, there will be certain benefits.

Therefore, it can be concluded that choosing Huashi Media for distribution can take into account immediate interests.

"Let me try."

Just now, Lao Xu smacked Warner Bros. and asked if ten million dollars was just for a beggar. Why is he so confused now?

He Feiyang nodded and defended himself: "It's been so many years since I graduated, and I don't need math anymore."

"That's true."

"Boss, it turns out you want to take advantage of Warner Bros.?"

Xu Nuo suddenly smiled and said: "Xiao Wen, you have finally enlightened."

Xu Nuo rolled his eyes at He Feiyang, he must have forgotten all his previous professional studies.

He Feiyang also said at this time: "I know the three movies with a box office of more than 50 million US dollars. Two of them are the movies of the national counselor Li Mou, and the other one is the movie of Wang Zi'an."

Only a director with a national master-level reputation like Li Mou can earn more than 80 million US dollars at the box office.

"Ah? Boss, Mr. He, what are you talking about?"

Xu Nuo touched his chin and muttered.

But from a long-term perspective, it is obviously beneficial to Xu Nuo.

"Old Xu, are you worried that "Terminator" will not perform well at the box office in overseas markets?"

And this benefit is definitely not limited to the 10 million US dollars.

If you choose Warner, you will have greater long-term benefits."

Wen Ruohan: "emmmm I still don't quite understand."

In the past, Huashi Media was responsible for the overseas distribution of domestic films, which were basically based on the circle of overseas Chinese audiences, and the efforts to radiate to gringos were obviously not enough.

"Guan Ju, what is the box office data of our commercially-oriented domestic films released overseas over the years?"

Wen Ruohan expressed her thoughts on the phone.

"Come on, Ah Fei, Guan Ju, Xiao Wen, let's hold a temporary meeting to discuss and see if my idea is right."

"It seems like we really have to let Warner take advantage of this."

On the contrary, if "Terminator" is only distributed by Huashi Media this time, although it can sign a box office split and avoid a buyout of distribution, the scale of overseas release will definitely not be comparable to Warner's energy.

"Okay."

He Feiyang was a little confused when he heard this.

He Feiyang thought deeply for a moment and suddenly understood what Lao Xu meant.

"Boss, what's there to discuss? I think you should choose China Lion. The key is that the money given by Warner is too little. "Terminator" has a box office of 2 billion in our country.

The overseas market is bigger and we can definitely make more money."

To be precise, it's not three people, it's two people, plus an AI Guanju.

Anyway, Xu Nuo believes in the quality of his "Terminator" movie. Even if it is compared to Hollywood, it is at least above the average level.

"Wait a minute, I seem to understand, Old Xu, you are thinking about "Transformers", right?

So you want to give the overseas distribution of "Terminator" to Warner first, borrow Warner's energy, and let "Terminator" help us expand the overseas market first, so that domestic films can have a foothold in the overseas film market?"

Anyway, when it comes to overseas distribution, if you can add a little more money, it's still money. No matter how few mosquito legs there are, it's still meat. What's more, the profit is still the money of that turtle grandson of Warner.

"Guan Ju, if "Terminator" is distributed to Warner Bros. and earns at least 100 million U.S. dollars at the overseas box office, please help me make a mathematical function model based on the overseas film market development index to predict the 100 million U.S. dollars generated by "Terminator"

How much of the box office market can it expand for "Transformers" when it is released overseas in the future?"

Xu Nuo called the three of them to prepare for a meeting to discuss.

Because if "Terminator" is distributed to Huashi Media, with Huashi Media's energy, the scale of "Terminator" release in overseas markets such as North America will definitely be relatively small.

"It seems that the performance of our domestic films in overseas markets is indeed not very good."

This shows how weak the competitiveness of domestic films in overseas markets is.

"I think Lao Xu may have deeper considerations."

US$10 million was used to distribute the overseas distribution of "Terminator" to Warner, although it does seem to be a bit of a loss at the moment.

And if you want more foreigners to see the domestic movie "Terminator" in theaters, you really have to be a big Hollywood company.

"Sir, after establishing a mathematical function model based on the hypothetical data you provided, we calculated that the overseas market size of "Transformers" will be expanded by at least 3.7 times that of "Terminator".

"Didn't I give Guan Ju a piece of hypothetical data? You also study mathematics. If you give the data and establish a mathematical function model, it will definitely be no problem."

After hearing this, Xu Nuo spread his hands.

"Boss, then I will ask the overseas operations department to discuss the overseas distribution rights of "Terminator" with Warner Bros.?" Wen Ruohan asked the boss to confirm.

If Xu Nuo is not famous as a director and his works, what should we do when the next "Transformers" is released overseas?

"Well, sure, remember to tell Warner that 10 million U.S. dollars is a bit steep, and you need to add more money."

"Let's talk about Lao Xu." He Feiyang suddenly came over again: "I have always been curious about how good Guan Ju is in algorithms."

"Um?"

Hearing this, Xu Nuo just replied calmly: "That's all."

"Then if we don't let Guan Ju do the math, how can our national football team win the World Cup?"

Guan Ju:.
