Mo Kaixuan said, "I just want to go against him. Mr. Li, I believe you've seen the film. With its quality, I guarantee that it will definitely not lose. "
Li Xuyang frowned and said, "But our Huafeng will definitely lose. Director Mo, let me tell you the truth. My father has decided to cooperate with Xiao Yunhai. Therefore, we can't agree to your request. "
The investor of Mo Kaixuan's "Jing Ke Assassinates Qin" was Huafeng Cinema.
Li Xuyang's father, Li Rongguang, positioned it to be screened globally, so Mo Kaixuan produced two versions at the same time, one for the public and one for the domestic market.
It was no secret in the industry that Xiao Yunhai owned the entire North American cinema chain.
If Huafeng went to the major cinemas in North America to screen it, according to the previous rules, they would probably get 25% of the profits. The other 75% would be eaten up by this group of vampires.
However, if the film was handed over to Xiao Yunhai to bring overseas, it would be different. At the very least, they would get an international distribution share. Even if 10% of it was given to Xiao Yunhai, they would still make a profit.
Li Rongguang didn't take the hatred between his family and Xiao Yunhai to heart. After all, the Li family didn't do anything to hurt Xiao Yunhai.
Mo Kaixuan frowned and said, "Then when do you think is suitable?"
Li Xuyang didn't even think about it and said, "September 2nd."
Although Mo Kaixuan was the national teacher of the film industry, he was at most a director. He didn't have any power. For these rich people, it wasn't too important.
"Okay, I got it."
After ending the call with Li Xuyang, Mo Kaixuan threw his phone on the sofa angrily and cursed, "A bunch of bastards who only know about money."
On August 2nd, the momentum of "Crazy Stone" finally fell, only earning 240 million yuan.
The new Hua Xia cinema chain seemed to have known that this would happen, so they reduced the number of screens to 5,000 in advance.
On August 8th and 3rd, the number of screenings in the new Hua Xia cinemas dropped again, and they were given 3,000 screens. Even so, the attendance rate only reached 70%, and the box office dropped to 110 million.
In the following days, the box office of "Crazy Stone" deteriorated day by day until it closed on August 12, earning a total of 4.012 billion yuan, exceeding Xiao Yunhai's target.
Ever since the premiere of 'Crazy Stone', Xiao Yunhai had been staying on the set of 'Battle of Red Cliff'. When he had scenes, he was busy acting, and when he didn't, he helped Wu Zixu film.
With his full support, the filming speed of Battle of Red Cliff was extremely fast. On August 10th, not only did they catch up with the previous progress, but they also finished all the scenes in Zhuozhou Film City.
8th month, 11th day, the crew turned to Red Cliff and prepared to film the scene of burning Cao Cao's 700 thousand troops.
For this big scene, the crew rented a lot of warships, and the rest had to be done with computer special effects.
Just as the movie was in full swing, Xiao Yunhai received a call from the Vice Chairman of the Golden Goblet Awards, Shen Qiu.
"Yunhai, are you filming in Red Cliff, Hubei?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Yes. Chairman Shen, you took the time to call me despite your busy schedule. There should be something, right? "
Shen Qiu smiled bitterly and said, "That's right. I just don't know if you can give me face. "
Xiao Yunhai made a light sound of surprise and asked in surprise: "What is it? Why do you feel so troubled? "
Shen Qiu sighed and said, "Yunhai, to tell you the truth, I've already arrived at Red Cliff. The person who came with me is Li Xuyang from Huafeng Studios. He has something to ask of me, so he asked me to come over and be your mediator. What do you mean? "
Xiao Yunhai was stunned. He had not paid attention to Huafeng International for a long time.
The last time he saw Li Xugang was in June when he went to the Jiangsu TV Station to accompany Zhao Wanqing to record the Night of Singers.
Now, Xiao Yunhai was no longer the same as before. Not only had he returned to the Xiao family, but his strength was also not inferior to Huafeng International Studios. His potential was much greater than theirs.
Therefore, Huafeng International Studios did not take it to heart.
Of course, he did not hate the Li family.
Back then, he had only fought with Li Xugang because of his personal feelings. With his current status, looking back, it was at most a joke.
If the same thing were to happen again, Xiao Yunhai would at most laugh it off and wouldn't really fight with the other party.
Furthermore, the Li family did things openly. They relied on their strength to compete with him and did not play any tricks.
Otherwise, Xiao Yunhai would have found trouble with them long ago.
These things flashed through Xiao Yunhai's mind and he said, "Since Chairman Shen is here personally, how can I not see him?"
Half an hour later, Xiao Yunhai came to the teahouse where the two agreed to meet.
After greeting each other, Xiao Yunhai looked at the smiling Li Xugang and said, "Mr. Li, our relationship doesn't seem to be very good. Why did you ask Chairman Shen to call me here this time? "
Li Xugang said, "Mr. Xiao, I am very sorry for our previous misunderstanding. Please don't blame me, Mr. Xiao."
At this moment, seeing Xiao Yunhai, Li Xugang had completely lost his previous arrogance. He put on a very low posture and the first sentence was an apology, which made Xiao Yunhai a little surprised.
Shen Qiu next to him advised, "Yunhai, it's better to squash enmity than keep it alive. I think you should stop brooding over what happened in the past. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Chairman Shen, you have wronged me. When did I take it to heart? Mr. Li, to be honest, I never thought of being hostile to Huafeng International Studios. When I competed with your younger brother, Li Xugang, now that I think about it, I feel very childish. You have made a few moves against me, such as sniping "If You Are the One" and joining forces with others to ban me. Although it was a little overboard, it was all aboveboard. You didn't do anything shady in the dark, so I don't hate you in my heart. Otherwise, I would have asked the entertainment company that uses our Dream Special Effects technology to ban your studio. "
Li Xugang was stunned. Now that Dream Special Effects had been recognized by entertainment companies all over the world, and with the establishment of the new Hua Xia cinema chain, if Xiao Yunhai was determined to ban their studio, it was not impossible.
Thinking of the serious consequences, Li Xugang's face became very ugly, and cold sweat unconsciously appeared on his forehead.
"Mr. Xiao, thank you for showing mercy. I use tea in place of wine to propose a toast to you and apologize for the previous misunderstanding. "Li Xugang's attitude became more humble.
Xiao Yunhai picked up the teacup and clinked it with his. He took a sip and said, "Mr. Li, let's not talk about the previous matter anymore. Let's talk about the purpose of your visit this time."
Li Xugang nodded and said, "We heard that you are a shareholder of the North American cinema chain and can bring Hua Xia movies to be screened there, is that right?"
