Because the test screening time on Louis's side was relatively late, Li Daniu took his sample film and went to meet the two companies contacted by Halena first. "500,000 buyout, do you want to think about it again," Li Daniu asked calmly.
"Don't think about it, young man, your investment in this movie may not have exceeded 250,000 US dollars, what do you want to do if you have doubled," said a person from a film company with a smile.
"Goodbye then" changed companies, and the same conversation began again.
"A million is the highest price we can offer, and the highest price Hollywood can give you.
Young people, this kind of thing is not something that a rookie director like you can enjoy, and besides, your movie is a little too simple.
I'll admit it can scare people, but if you put it in the cinema, I don't think there's any advantage to it. ” "So where do you think this movie has an advantage," Li Daniu felt funny.
"In the home video market, this film can still make some money.
However, if we do it, the cost is a big investment, and you should know that it will be satisfied if it can give you a price of one million.
And you'll be able to get our friendship, and we can continue to work together next time you make another movie. ” Li Daniu finally couldn't help laughing, if he didn't know the box office of this movie, he was likely to be fooled by this person.
I don't know if I will make my own movies in the future, what's the use of wanting their friendship, if I mix for another year or two, I still need to get the friendship of a company of this level, then I just kill myself.
Although this world is not the world it once was, since this movie can create miracles in the previous world, there is no reason to hit the streets in this world with extremely similar cultural backgrounds and living habits.
Besides, even if it really hits the street, it is just a loss of 800,000 yuan, and for the current Li Daniu, what is it It must be resolutely refused On Monday, Mr.
Li received a call from Mr.
Louis.
"Your Majesty, we have performed a miracle."
Louis's voice was very excited.
"Calm down and speak slowly."
"Yesterday, the Lord of the Rings sold 80,000 sets, and with a weekly sales of 110,000 sets, it became the weekly champion for the second time."
"What kind of miracle is this, isn't it normal to win the weekly sales championship" Li Daniu was not excited at all, with the sales and reputation of this book in his previous life, isn't it the same as having fun to win a few weekly championships "Eh" Louis's confidence in Li Daniu's words, admired the five-body casting, in front of the sales data, this sentence is self-confidence, is strength.
But if Li Daniu said something like this before the book went on sale, it would be it.
"Your Majesty, we went last week, but we only had two days to sell, and we beat a lot of books that have been sold for a week, why are you not happy at all?"
"I'm happy."
Li Daniu said perfunctorily, he was indeed happy about the heat of the magic ring, but if he calculated the accounts, he only had more than one million sets of 100,000 sets a week, and there were taxes to be paid.
It's too slow to make money like this, after all, it's only available in the U.S. market, not globally.
Compared with the movie in his hand, as long as it is released, it can create nearly 100 million US dollars for him in just over a month, but he has not yet found a distributor.
When I think of this, even if I am happy, I can't show it.
After two days of boredom in the United States, Li Daniu finally waited for the agreed time on Louis's side.
In the screening room of Sunshine Media, Li Daniu finished showing his movie.
"It's good, it's the least horror movie I've ever seen."
Ross, head of the distribution department of Sunshine Media, said.
"I really didn't expect that not only did you write a good novel, but also made a wonderful movie."
Louis is now familiar with patting Li Daniu's sycophants.
"It's over."
Li Daniu hates politeness the most, and said directly: "So, is your company willing to release my movie?"
"Of course you do, why not," Rose exclaimed, exaggeratedly, "So, how do you want to release this movie?"
” Hearing this, Li Daniu felt much more comfortable, unlike the two companies he saw before, he opened his mouth to buy out, otherwise there was no need to talk about it.
"Of course, it's a cooperative model."
"There is no problem with the sharing, but the sharing ratio may not be comparable to your novel."
Rose smiled and said that the reason why he was polite to Li Da Niu and agreed to Li Da Niu so easily was because Li Da Niu was the author of the Lord of the Rings.
The Lord of the Rings book has been on the shelves for four weeks now, and the first week can't be counted at all, the second week 100,000 sets were sold out directly, and the third week sold out 110,000 sets in two days, and the results of the fourth week are naturally worth looking forward to.
Judging from the current sales and word-of-mouth of the book, it is very likely to compete for the top spot on the bestseller list in the United States this year, which is not only a great thing for Sunshine Press, but also a very happy thing for them Sunshine Media.
It is very normal to adapt a novel and make a movie.
The Lord of the Rings, as long as you have read the content, you know that if it is to be made into a movie, it will definitely be a big production.
Large-scale production means high returns and high risks, but businessmen pursue profits, and risks are never avoidable.
With the current and expected sales of the Lord of the Rings, it is a matter of time before this book is adapted into a movie, although Sunshine Media and Sunshine Publishing House belong to the same group, but the adaptation rights of this book are in the hands of the author Li Daniu.

If you don't have a good relationship with Li Daniu now, will you talk about it in the future?
"Of course, how much do you think is appropriate" Li Daniu has also done some understanding of the film market's share, the United States is relatively complicated, but when the final account is calculated, it is almost 40% for the theater chain, and 60% for the distributor and producer.
The distributor needs to promote the movie, and some movie publicity expenses can reach 100 million US dollars, so this 60% cannot be divided into 50% like the novel.
"Forty percent of the box office, 50 percent of the revenue from the videotapes, what do you think," Ross said a figure that Li Daniu couldn't believe, and then added, "And we put two million dollars into the promotion." ” If he knew the box office results of this movie and offered such a price, Li Da Niu would definitely spit on him, but it was impossible for Ross to foresee the box office of this movie, and even no one in the world except Li Da Niu could foresee the box office of this movie.
"Are you sure" "Of course, your film, we have to support it."
Ross's plan is to lose some money and have a good relationship with Li Daniu, besides, although Ross is not optimistic about the box office of this movie, he is very optimistic about the video tape market of this movie, and if the operation is good, it is not impossible to recover the cost from the video tape market, and it is even possible to make a little money.
Li Daniu pondered for a while, according to the global box office of nearly 200 million US dollars in this movie, giving up 10% is 20 million, Li Daniu is a little unwilling, however, except for Sunshine Media, no company can offer him such a high price, and besides, people still take the initiative to open it, and it is not appropriate to increase the price further.
"Well, trust me, your decision can pay you a lot of money."
Li Daniu stood up and shook Rose's hand.
"Of course, I'm pretty sure of it."
Ross thought that Li Daniu meant the film rights about the Lord of the Rings, and he didn't believe how much money the movie could bring him now.
After the two sides confirmed, someone went to sort out the contract, and Li Daniu asked: "How are you going to publicize it?"
"When our publicity plan comes out, I will definitely show you first."
Ross has a special person under him who is in charge of publicity, and now if you ask him, he can't say.
Li Daniu asked again: "Do you usually use the Internet a lot?"
"Do you want to promote from the Internet?"
Ross said: "You can rest assured that the Internet is the main direction of all film promotion, and we are no exception." ” "I mean, have you ever watched a supernatural video that is trending on the Internet right now" "Supernatural video" Rose frowned, didn't understand what Li Daniu meant, and replied, "I really haven't paid attention to this." ” Li Daniu used the computer in the screening room to search the Internet for the videos that Lisi and his two had uploaded before, as well as the two of them.
"Look at this, how does it help your propaganda program."
Confused, Rose walked over to the computer and looked at it, and after a while he understood.
"It's your arrangement" "Not bad."
"It's a genius propaganda program."
Ross sighed, as a professional, after reading these news, and then watching the supernatural video, it was completely an interception from Li Daniu's movie, how could he not understand.
Li Daniu smiled and said, "Do you have confidence in the box office of this movie now?"
"Yes" t1706231537:
