Chapter 50 Buyout Issue (Eighth)

The Wasteland is filmed in Louisiana.

To be honest, it is not because the scenery is beautiful and suitable for TV series shooting.

Mainly, Louisiana’s tax refunds are as high as 25%!

In other words, the production fund of $25 million can save more than $6 million through tax refunds!

This is the highest tax refund policy in the United States.

That was understandable to save money, the crew chose to be in Louisiana.

Louisiana belongs to the southern part of the United States, with high temperatures and difficult conditions for the crew. After all, the shooting place is a bit far away from the big city, but these cannot stop the enthusiastic thoughts of the main creators behind the crew.

This is a big American drama dominated by Chinese people!

The crew's preliminary preparations have begun, with half a month of martial arts training.

After all, it is an action scene, and the fight runs through the whole process. Yuan Kui is very familiar with the North American process. He began training a bunch of supporting roles according to the set actions.

As for Wu Yan's group, he flew to Los Angeles.

No matter how you say it, you should meet the director.

...

Xu Hui's trip to North America also has private affairs besides official business.

Yang Mi is pregnant with Liujia, so this matter must be kept confidential, otherwise it will have a great impact on her career if it is reported.

After all, Paohui was not ready to marry her...

Finding a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers allows her to wait for delivery, and there is no more suitable than a ranch.

He was looking through the ranch for sale in Montana. The price did not need to be too high. He had no intention of being a rancher. The place was just a place for recuperation. Of course, it could not be too small. Xu Hui was planning to treat that as his second home in the future and it would be great to have a storm in his spare time.

“Boss, do you want to buy a ranch?”

Emily saw him looking through the information on the ranch and asked.

Paohui didn't raise his head, and responded casually: "Yes, I have ideas in this regard."

"Why don't you find an agent? He will help you screen the good ones!"

“…”

It’s better not to discuss such a hidden matter with the agent?

"...Oh, you have just arrived in the United States and probably don't have a real estate agent yet. I can introduce mine to you!"

“…Thank you, but I don’t need it for the time being…”

It turned out to be a real estate agent...

When, when, when, when.

Knocking, Emily opened the door, and it was Wu Yan's group.

"Hello, director, I'm Daniel Wu, it's really hard to meet you..."

Wu Yan's group complained a little...

After all, he didn't see Xu Hui even when he flew to Beijing twice...

Xu Hui was a little embarrassed and shook hands with him with a smile.

Wu Yan Group is the male lead he appointed. Although the two have never met each other, they are familiar with each other and are both considered to be beautiful in the prosperous era.

And I also communicated on the phone for a long time.

Unfortunately, the American aesthetic is so interesting. Emily has no intention of kneeling and licking her when facing two large men...

Sitting quietly by the side watching the communication between the director and the male lead.

Xu Hui asked in Chinese: "...Danny, you should have a good understanding of the general settings of the script. Is there anything wrong with me?"

Wu Yan's Mandarin is very bad, and he always feels like he has stockings in his mouth: "...I hope I can get stephen to join the crew. You know, we will all be kung fu fans. With him here, I think we will get twice the result with half the effort..." Tephen is Feng Delun and Wu Yan's gay friend.

In original time and space, Feng Delun is the director of "The Wasteland"...

In fact, the director of the American drama is not very great, and the producer is not him. He just presents the script according to the producer's requirements.

In the first season, he was an action director, and in the second season, he was the director...

To be precise, Feng Delun's talent in director... was not qualified. The "Tai Chi" trilogy directly killed Huayi for 100 million yuan, and the third part was still in the womb; the promotion cost of "The League of Legends" was 140 million yuan, and the total box office was close to 200 million yuan, which was another small loss...

However, he himself thought he was a very talented director, just like Guo Degang happily hugged "The 19th Generation of Ancestors" and said, "All those who have watched it have said it's good, but those who have never watched it are scolding the bad movies."

What a great confidence!

"…This requires Mr. Yuankui's opinion, and our production funding is somewhat insufficient..."

Unless he is willing to bring Shu Qi into the crew...

Forget it, I am already a wife, and the fungus is already black...

After sending Wu Yan's group away in a few words, Xu Hui continued to look through the ranch information.

“…boss, don’t you like him?”

Emily asked a sudden question.

Xu Hui was very interested and put down the things in his hand, turned around and asked, "...Why did you say that?"

"Feel…"

"Your feeling is not very accurate!"

He just doesn't like Von Delun...

Xu Hui doesn't like anyone who is not self-aware!

...

At noon the next day, Xu Hui met Cook Dick.

Cook has had a hard time recently. "Alien Battlefield" has suffered a huge loss, which directly caused Disney Pictures to lose nearly 100 million US dollars in the first quarter.

Although this data will not cause the huge Disneyland damage, it is also a considerable loss.

Cook Dick has always been in charge of live-action film marketing and promotion business. Although he is not the main person in charge of "Alien Battlefield", he cannot escape the connection if he is responsible for joint and several liability.

"Xu, "New Longmen Inn" did not meet expectations, we need to rethink the cooperation between the two parties."

The first sentence of the speech made Xu Hui a little embarrassed.

How to say it, Huiwen did a bit inauthentic in "New Dragon Gate".

Disney has sold nearly US$20 million in promotional fees worldwide, based on trust in Xu Hui.

As a result, the movie's box office in North America and Europe is a bit unreasonable.

After three weeks of release in North America, the cumulative box office has barely reached 12 million US dollars. It is estimated that the total box office will probably stop at 15 million. The European box office is not that good, and the cumulative box office is less than 10 million.

Not to mention compared with "The Lion King's Battle", even the overseas box office of the first "Huang Feihong" is more than twice as high as it...

Disney has just experienced the impact of "Alien Battlefield" and naturally cried...

"You say, I listen."

Disney has always been Huiwen's main partner in North America.

For the time being, Huiwen is unlikely to cut off this hard-earned cooperative relationship.

"...First of all, we will leave the publicity and marketing of "Avengers" to be released next month to you in mainland China. You must ensure its influence in the mainland..."

To put it bluntly, I want to rely on Huiwen Tianxia’s distribution capabilities.

Most of the films introduced are taking the path of Zhongying. Although Zhongying's distribution ability is not bad, their publicity and promotion ability is indeed more than Huiwen's. Moreover, Zhongying's dominant position, Hollywood has very little say in this regard.

“…How do you share the benefits from the mainland?”

"There are two plans. First, you can bid for the mainland issuance right: the second..."

"No need, I'll choose the first one, you can offer a price!"

“50 million US dollars!”

Cookdick spoke.

"50 million? Why don't you grab it?"
Chapter completed!
