Chapter 263 Meeting with the People from the Eight Major Film Distribution Companies
She watched a movie in Xiaguo called "Taxi Express"
This is one part action-comedy-crime film.
Su Zi wants to shoot the film, but he will not follow the original script. He will make changes with the actors based on the actual situation in Longguo.
Generally speaking, the plot of chasing, showing off and getting slapped in the face will not change, and there will even be more exciting and showy parts.
However, we have to wait until this matter is dealt with.
After scolding the two, she let them rest and reflect on themselves.
By leveraging his personal connections, Su Zi successfully contacted the heads of the eight major film distribution companies in Longguo.
Su Zi was well-known, and they thought that Su Zi contacted them to discuss cooperation.
Since I couldn't come, I arranged for a suitable person to meet Su Zi.
When they arrived at the place agreed with Su Zi, the eight people realized that Su Zi had not invited only one of them.
"So everyone is here." Mr. Chen, who came in last, looked at these enemies and wondered why Su Zi called them here.
"Strange, why did President Su gather us all together?"
"Who knows? Don't worry. Stay calm. You'll know when she comes."
"You have a stable mentality. The Buddhist beads in your hand are almost leaving afterimages because of you spinning them."
"You two shouldn't quarrel whenever you meet. How can you be proud of yourself when being laughed at?"
Su Zi pushed the door open and walked in. "Good morning, CEOs."
Don't hit a smiling person. Su Zi came in with a smile on her face, and the eight people greeted her very politely.
"Good morning, Mr. Su."
Su Zi sat in the empty seat reserved by everyone.
The place she had an appointment to meet today was a teahouse, which had a quiet environment and was perfect for talking about things.
What she hates most is talking about business over a drink.
"I'm sure everyone is curious about why I took so much trouble to invite you all here. I won't hide it from you and will tell you straight to the point."
She told everyone about the conflict between Qi Rong and the foreign film crew.
The eight people were not stupid and they understood Su Zi's meaning instantly.
President Gu: "President Su, what you mean is that we should not buy the screening rights for this movie, and should not distribute this movie, right?"
Mr. Hu: "That won't do. We have so many cinemas to support. The quality of the movies is good and can attract audiences. We can't turn away such benefits just because of your words and that little grudge."
Mr. Chen: "As an actor, everyone gets wronged sometimes. After all, it's a foreign country. Qi Rong just arrived and is not familiar with the rules. It's possible that they are xenophobic."
These people don't take this matter to heart; they only care about their own interests.
Su Zi was also aware of their true colors, so when she heard everyone directly refusing and refusing, she did not show any emotion.
With a polite smile on his face, he said, "You all misunderstood what I meant. I invited everyone to discuss this matter because I am a Dragon countryman like everyone else. We are compatriots, and I don't want to see you being cheated by foreigners."
"You can buy the broadcast rights for this drama, I won't stop you."
"However, I am young and hot-tempered, and I also protect my shortcomings. I have already privately informed Qi Rong's fans and asked them not to support this drama."
"Of course, Qi Rong is popular with the public. When the time comes, just for her reputation, many passers-by will be willing to buy a ticket and go to the cinema to watch it."
"I am soft-hearted and don't want to see passers-by being deceived, so before this movie is broadcast, I will definitely speak out to warn passers-by."
Mr. Chen's face changed. With Su Zi's current traffic, who would watch this movie if she reminded him of this?
"Boss Su, it's not good to threaten us like this. Why don't you just tell me what you want to do?"
Su Zi's mouth curved even more, with a hint of confidence, "I am young and a little impulsive. Please forgive me, seniors. I can't say I am threatening you. I just want to share a mutually beneficial method with you."
President Hu: "President Su, please stop keeping us in suspense and just speak directly."
"I suggest that when you buy the rights to broadcast this movie, you can add a bet agreement to the contract. If the movie's box office take rate does not reach 70%, then the seller of the broadcast rights should bear half of the responsibility. When payment is made, half should be paid first. If the box office take rate reaches 70%, then the remaining half should be paid, and the box office revenue should be increased by 10%."
"If those people have nothing to hide, they will naturally sign this agreement with you. If they know that what they are doing is not fair, they will not sign the agreement with you."
"Whether you sign or not, you won't lose anything."
“The most we’ll lose is the broadcasting rights to a foreign film.”
"As for me, I just want to stand up for my artist."
"What do you think of my proposal?"
President Shen's brows did not relax. He looked at Su Zi with disdain in his eyes, "President Su, as a person who has experienced this, I have something to say to you. Being too rigid will easily lead to failure. This is the case in the entertainment industry in any country. You can't always help out when an artist in your company suffers a loss. You can't help out."
"Thank you for Mr. Shen's advice, but I, Su Zi, only want to do things with a clear conscience. We don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of trouble. If someone provokes me, it is only right for me to fight back. I can't just stand there and take a beating."
President Gu sensed the tension between the two and immediately said, "President Su, I can't answer you about this for now. I need to go back and discuss it with the people in the company. I'll tell you my decision later."
Mr. Chen: "Me too. Mr. Su, you also know that managing a cinema chain is not that simple."
President Hu: "I also need to discuss this with the heads of several departments of the company. President Su, please wait a moment."
None of the eight people expressed their opinions immediately, and all said they would go back and discuss it first.
Although they felt that Su Zi was too impulsive, looking at his young face, they remembered themselves at this age, who seemed to be more impulsive and more youthful.
I praise Su Zi's behavior, but I don't agree with her way of doing things.
Sooner or later, you will suffer.
Su Zi didn't expect these old foxes to be persuaded by just a few words.
She picked up the tea in front of her with a smile on her face: "Then I will wait for your good news."
"Sure, sure."
After the eight people left, Su Zi sat alone in the tea room, calming his mind and going through the entire process of making tea.
Just as I finished drinking the tea I made myself, Su Yuehe, Ni Ruoan, Qi Rong and others pushed the door open.
The three of them sat opposite Su Zi.
Su Yuehe couldn't help but asked, "How is it? Did they agree?"
"No, they probably won't agree to all of them, but it doesn't matter. I've reminded them of what I should have reminded them of. When the time comes, if I do something, they can't blame me."
"Sister Qi Rong, how is the notification from your fans?"
"Yuanyuan first contacts a few big fans, and then invites these big fans to manage the fans below. They will first tell the fans with strong stickiness, and then slowly reveal the news to other fans."
Hearing this, Su Zi nodded. Liu Yuan was right to do so. If he notified everyone all at once, the news would easily leak out, allowing the foreigners to get the message and retaliate.
Ni Ruoan couldn't hide his indignation, "Those foreigners are really getting a bargain!"
"It's okay. I spent some money and got some information. Their movie has to go through post-production, film review, and other procedures. It will take at least four to five months for it to be broadcast internationally."
"We have plenty of time to compete with them."
"Sister Qi Rong, I plan to complete the filming and post-production of the next movie within three months. The time is tight and the task is heavy. You have to hold on."
