Chapter 726 Get "Inception"
An hour later, when the banquet was over, Xiao Yunhai rushed to pay. When I got home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
Xiao Yunhai called Zhao Wanqing, asked about the rehearsal, and told her to pay attention to her body and not be too tired.
Zhao Wanqing's concern for Xiao Yunhai was very useful, and the two were tired and crooked for half an hour before they finished chatting.
The next day, Xiao Yunhai received a call from Xiao Yuanyang, telling him that the shareholders of the foreign theater chain had been settled. Yu's real estate and Hu's real estate accounted for 10% of the total, which made Xiao Yunhai very happy.
In the future, with Yu Hai and Hu Yaoting's 20% shares, Xiao Yunhai's entire movie layout can be considered complete.
The good news came one after another. In the afternoon, Wu Hao called to tell him that all the post-production special effects of "Inception" had been completed, and asked him to come to the Dream Effects Imaging Company to see the effects.
When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he drove straight to the company without saying a word.
After reading it from beginning to end, Xiao Yunhai nodded with satisfaction and said, "Boss Wu, these special effects shots are very good, they feel very real."
Wu Hao smiled and said, "Boss Xiao, when is this movie going to be released?"
Xiao Yunhai was stunned for a moment and said, "It's estimated that it will take another month. What? You're not going to see it, are you?"
Wu Hao said, "Of course you're going to watch the movie you're filming in the theater."
Xiao Yunhai was puzzled: "When you were doing these special effects, didn't you see all the plots? What's the point of going to the cinema again?"
Wu Hao said with a smile: "The effect of a film like this on the computer is far inferior to that on the big screen. Boss Xiao, I have to say that the plot of your film is really great.
Especially the setting of the dream is simply incredible. Coupled with our special effects, it is estimated that it will definitely be popular all over the world. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and asked, "Do you think it can exceed the $4.9 billion of "Heroes of Heroes"?"
Wu Haodao: "Although "Heroes of Jingwu" looks good, it relies on kung fu, and the plot is a flaw. The action design in "Inception" is not weaker than "Heroes of Jingwu", and it is far from other aspects. It surpassed it, so we think this drama will definitely be more successful than Jingwu, and it may even take "War Aliens" down at the box office."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Come on, I don't have that much ambition. As long as "Inception" can reach 15 billion Chinese coins."
When Wu Hao heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "Your ambition is really small."
The two chatted about "Inception" for a while, and then Xiao Yunhai brought the topic to 3D imaging technology.
"How's Zhang Yuan's research going?"
Wu Hao said: "The progress is very smooth. I have to say, this Zhang Yuan is really amazing, he is a genius, any kind of problem, he can find a way to solve it. I think you'd better find a way. Leave him in our dream."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Don't worry, he can't escape."
Needless to say? With his sister here, where else can Zhang Yuan run?
The two chatted for a while about the development of the dreamy future, and Xiao Yunhai brought the film to Hanhai. He needs to double-check it in case something goes wrong.
After everything was done, Xiao Yunhai handed over the finished film of "Inception" to the review department of the Film and Television Bureau.
Because the Minister of Culture, Cao Huaqian, had promised him that he would not block the film, the screening license for "Inception" was quickly approved.
In this way, everything is ready, and in just one month, the movie can be released in the newly built Huaxia new theater chain.
However, Xiao Yunhai was not prepared to wait, he took the film to America the next day. He plans to release it in North America first, and after he achieves good results, it will be released in China.
Because Xiao Yunhai is in the process of being blocked, and the heroine Zhao Wanqing is participating in "Night of the Singer" on Jiangsu Satellite TV again. It is rare to see her attaching so much importance to a show. Xiao Yunhai does not want her to be distracted by the movie.
As a result, the male and female protagonists are not present, and the promotion in China will definitely not achieve good results. Therefore, it is better to achieve international success first, and then turn to China to promote it, just like "Heroes of Jingwu", I believe the effect will definitely be good.
After coming out of Los Angeles Airport, Xiao Yunhai went straight to MGM and asked Kerry to help hand over the film to the review board for review.
Kerry naturally has nothing to say about such small things.
In the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai invited Kerry and Jesse to dinner at his manor house, and focused on the issue of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Kerry, has the filming of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" started?"
Kerry nodded and said, "Of course. Because most of the actors are fixed, after we selected the director, it took only two days to set up the crew."
Xiao Yunhai said: "Who did you choose to be the director?"
Kerry said: "Bradley Efron. He is a very famous director in Hollywood. He has made a lot of movies. Although there are good and bad, it is all a matter of script. My ability is still trustworthy. Don't worry, this movie, I will keep up with it myself."
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "Kerry, I have nothing to worry about. Don't forget, if the movie is turned into a bad movie and can't get more than two billion dollars at the box office, then our agreement will be closed. It's over. For me, not only is it not a loss, but it will make me a lot of money in the next few movies because of your exit. So you should be the most nervous."
Kerry said confidently: "Xiao, I am very happy to hear what you said. It shows that you have not forgotten your promise. Haha, look, I will definitely not give you this chance."
"I hope so." Xiao Yunhai turned to look at Jesse and said, "Are the four major publishing houses still contacting you?"
Jesse laughed. "Yes. But I've told them your request, and they're negotiating now."
Xiao Yunhai sneered and said: "Negotiate? They still want to discuss, what a joke. "Harry Potter" has taken the world by storm, do they still want to cheat me like last time? Jesse, tomorrow morning, you will notify me They'll either agree or they'll be out, and I won't have any compromises."
Xiao Yunhai's impression of the four major European publishing houses can be said to be very bad, not only because of the contracts they signed, but also because of their problems in distribution.
Because they signed a gambling contract, the greater the sales of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", the greater the profit Xiao Yunhai made.
For their own benefit, these four major publishing houses actually joined forces to hide the real sales volume, intending to cheat Xiao Yunhai.
What they didn't expect was that "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was so popular that it not only sold tens of millions of copies, but also attracted the attention of major media around the world, which made the four major publishing houses very worried. , I had to spit out the fat that I had eaten to my mouth again.
This came and went, although it was very secretive, it was noticed by the top financial personnel hired by Xiao Yunhai. However, they did not make a sound, but secretly reported the matter to Xiao Yunhai.
Although Xiao Yunhai was very angry, he didn't have a seizure, he just pretended not to know anything. After all, he has nothing to lose, plus there is no evidence, if he rashly spreads the matter to the outside world, he may get himself into big trouble.
Therefore, Xiao Yunhai did not make a statement, but he was already disgusted with these four publishing houses in his heart.
