Rising America

Chapter 308: Reciprocate

   At dinner time, the famous Hollywood director Jonathan came up as promised. After getting an inquiry from the butler Andrew, he immediately said that he could come over today and talk about investment issues with Kim Hyun Tae. ←

   After all, the current financial rupture has made him a little burnt.

  Since Kim Hyun Tae has shown his willingness to invest, Jonathan certainly will not give up.

Even if Kim Hyun-tae was warned by the five major film and television companies in private that they were not allowed to contact people, there is no threat to those who have already suppressed all their wealth in this film and are about to go bankrupt. .

   Jonathan didn't want to go bankrupt, nor did he didn't want his hard-earned banknotes to become nothingness, and then he went to sleep in the street.

   So now that any opportunity is in front of him, he needs to seize it.

   As for the five major film industries?

   Let them go to hell!

   Rather than worrying about being blocked by the five major film companies in the future, it is better to worry about the reality of how to prevent yourself from going bankrupt.

   So Jonathan made a choice.

   "Hello, Mr. Jonathan, I have heard of your name a long time ago. You are the premier director in Hollywood."

   The first sentence after seeing Jonathan, Kim Hyun-tae complimented him.

   After all, good things don’t cost money, so what does it matter if you talk about it?

   Kim Hyun Tae doesn't want to show a high-level appearance, it is offensive.

  As the former bottom, Kim Hyun-tae hates that kind of behavior, so he will definitely not let himself become that kind of person.

   And his approachability doesn't seem like a rich man's performance at all. It really surprised Jonathan, and at the same time had a good first impression of him.

   This is a good start.

   "You are too polite. I'm just an ordinary director. Not as good as you said. People like me have a lot of people in Hollywood."

   Jonathan is also very humble in the compliment of Kim Hyun Tae, and he is not as unruly as some other famous directors.

   "Please sit down."

   Without letting the butler Andrew lead the way, Jin Xiantai led Jonathan to the study and personally received him.

   Jonathan felt flattered for Kim Hyun Tae’s personal reception.

   "Would you like to drink something? I have a lot of alcohol here. But I don't like it personally, at most sometimes I drink mint wine."

   Kim Hyun Tae asked after Jonathan took his seat.

   "No! No! No! I don't drink either."

   Jonathan quickly said that he would not drink.

   Jonathan is a guest at the door. As a host, he always has to entertain him. This is a matter of etiquette and cannot be vague.

   So Jin Xiantai asked, "So how about some tea? I have famous tea imported from China."

   It doesn’t matter if you don’t drink, it’s okay to drink some tea, so Jonathan did not refuse to drink tea.

   "Andrew, please make us a pot of tea and use Longjing."

   after giving orders to his housekeeper. Jin Xiantai entered the subject directly.

"Please forgive me for being direct. I don't like politeness as a whole. You will understand me as a whole when you get in touch with me. Then I want to know how much profit you will give me if I invest 60 million US dollars. ? After all, I am a businessman, this is what we are doing in business."

   The truth is correct, and Jonathan didn't doubt anything.

   After all, the United States is such an environment, and it is normal to do business in business.

  60 million dollars is nothing to the rich. But this is not a decimal.

   No matter what, 60 million dollars was paid. You have to know what you will get, right?

   Even Jonathan himself will ask the same question as Kim Hyun Tae.

   is not disgusted with Kim Hyun-tae’s direct Qiao Anson. Westerners just like to be direct, but they are not used to those who are oblivious.

Therefore, Qiao Ansen sat upright and replied to Jin Xiantai in a serious manner: "I invested 130 million US dollars in this film. Originally, Lionsgate Movies and Television also invested 130 million US dollars. However, they withdrew their capital halfway. The film cannot be filmed normally. If the film cannot be completed, then my personal investment will be completely wiped out.

  According to the agreement with my ‘Lionsgate Movies’, they will account for 50% of the film’s net income. That is to take half of each with me, but now that this situation has emerged, I am willing to give up a part of my own interests and provide it to people who can come up with funds to support me. 80% of the net profit income distribution, what do you think? ? "

   Although Jonathan seems to be at a loss, if you think about it carefully, you can get a 20% net profit distribution, which is always better than bankruptcy.

   So Jonathan is still relatively smart.

   What's more, the population base of this world is ten times larger than that of Kim Hyun-tae in his previous life. Based on this consideration, even if Jonathan takes 20% of the net income distribution share, it will definitely not be a small number.

   So I don’t blame Jonathan for offering this price.

   Of course, this price is obviously after careful consideration by Jonathan.

   Nodded lightly, and Kim Hyun Tae said, "I am very satisfied with this investment allocation plan. But are you sure that 60 million US dollars is really enough?"

   "60 million US dollars is definitely enough. I swear to God on this." Kim Hyun Tae's meaning is already obvious. He is very excited about investing in his own movies.

   Therefore, while Jonathan was a little excited, he also assured Kim Hyun-tae that it was definitely less than 60 million US dollars to ensure that the film could continue to be filmed.

   "Excuse me, I don't quite understand, Lionsgate has divested 130 million US dollars. It stands to reason that you should have a shortfall of 130 million? Why is 60 million US dollars now?"

   But Kim Hyun Tae didn't immediately say that he agreed to invest, but instead asked a question that he was more puzzled.

   Indeed, it is true according to the truth, and it is no wonder that Jin Xiantai is a little curious.

When I heard Kim Hyun-tae asking about this matter, and at the same time seeing that Kim Hyun-tae was a little bit curious and doubtful about this matter, Qiao Anson explained: “In fact, this involves some of the reasons for the withdrawal of Lionsgate Films. The original film I plan to use some new actors. And the plot will follow its own design, but Lionsgate Movies and TV disagrees with this point. They think it should hire big-name actors and make drastic changes to the plot... "

   After explaining the ins and outs through Qiao Ansen, Jin Xiantai understood why'Lionsgate Movies and Television' would divest their capital. Strictly speaking, this is just to put Jonathan together.

   Jonathan is a big-name director in Hollywood. But he is also a director with a lot of personality and ideas, but in order to make money in the early days, he had to obey the arrangements of the big film and television companies to shoot those films that were **** in his opinion, but very profitable films.

   Now that he is successful, he has some money in his hand, so he decided to get rid of the control of big film and television companies, and plan to shoot a movie according to his own ideas, while being able to make money. Also prove yourself.

   But there are some things you can’t think of.

   Lionsgate Film and Television Company, now playing with him like this.

   Don’t you want to take the path of an independent producer?

   After I promoted you as a great director, you and I will part ways, right?

it is good!

   Then I ruined you!

   Don’t you think you have two money!

   Then let you go bankrupt.

   Then there was such a situation.

   Basically, from Jonathan’s description, Kim Hyun-tae judged that this might be the case.

   It's just that Qiao Ansen hasn't understood it yet.

   But Jin Xiantai didn't intend to tell him, after all, it was useless.

   Jonathan's idea of ​​going as an independent producer is very firm, even if he throws out an olive branch, he will not accept it.

   Of course, this is also why Joe Anson doesn't want to be restrained anymore. After all, he wanted to express some of his attitudes and thoughts, and he absolutely couldn't do that anymore.

   Kim Hyun Tae can also understand this.

   Fortunately, Kim Hyun Tae never thought about recruiting Jonathan. I just want to use Jonathan's relationship to crack the situation where my company was suppressed.

   Soon, Kim Hyun Tae made a decision, but it was only 60 million US dollars.

   This little money is nothing to him now.

   Besides, this money may not necessarily lead to a loss, maybe a lot of money will be made.

   So after Kim Hyun Tae pretended to be silent for a while. This was the only way to say to Jonathan who was a little worried: "I know the five major Hollywood film and television companies, privately advise the practitioners not to have anything to do with me, then under such a situation, you accept my funds. No. Are you worried about it? But don’t you have to be in Hollywood anymore."

   seems to explain the situation kindly, but it is not Jin Hyun Tae's temptation.

   It’s not impossible to want his own $60 million, but Jonathan also has to show a little attitude. Now Kim Hyun-tae has a little ‘crocodile’ demeanor.

Jonathan smiled bitterly when he heard the words, and then said to Kim Hyun-tae, "Let’s see their ghosts. If you want me to be afraid of the Big Five film companies, it’s better to make me afraid of bankruptcy. Besides, they don’t necessarily think of me as anything. It's just to restrict the release of my film.

But as far as I know, you have a 3,000 movie theaters. If you can, after my movie is completed, it’s not impossible not to show it on the theaters of the five major film and television companies, but on your theaters. They can't help it. "

Ha ha!

   Jonathan still had this idea.

   Speaking of it, he must have considered the problems he would encounter, such as the five major film and television companies restricting his movies.

   So Qiao Ansen accepted his own investment, and at that time, he can completely rely on this relationship to let the film be released in the theater that he controls.

   There are no fools and fools in this world.

   Kim Hyun-tae sighed in his own heart, and then said: "You are right, but don't you think my theater is smaller?"

   Jonathan put away his frowning expression and put on a weird smile.

"If you are interested, in fact, there is now an opportunity in front of you. As far as I know, the partner of Lionsgate Films, after the death of the owner of the Monte Cinemas, several of his sons are making trouble for the family property. Almost, and these guys are the second generation ancestors and don’t know how to operate. They just think about how to sell the family-run theater, and then take the money to spend time and wine, and'Lions Pictures' is also thinking about preparing to lower the price. These playboys have taken the Monte Cinema Line."

  嚯!

   This is unexpected news.

   The news revealed by Jonathan surprised Kim Hyun-tae.

   is no stranger to the Monte family theater Jin Xiantai. Since he has a small theater of 3,000 theaters in his hands, he himself has studied related industries.

   And Monte Cinema is the largest theater operator on the West Coast, with 12,880 theaters. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

   At this time, Kim Hyun-tae began to wonder, if he could win the Monte Cinemas, plus his 3000 California theaters, then he would definitely become the largest theater owner on the West Coast.

   When the time comes, even if the five major film companies continue to suppress themselves, I can ignore them and even play my own.

   Thinking of this, Kim Hyun-tae couldn't help but feel hot.

At this time, Jonathan continued: "In terms of funding, I don’t think you will have any problems with Mr. William, at least more than the five major film and television companies. Isn’t it? The five major film companies want to peek into the Monte Cinemas, I think they have to find Bank loans, but you definitely don’t use them.

   Jonathan’s remarks just showed Kim Hyun Tae’s advantage.

   That's right!

   I'm going to bring the Monte Cinemas over with money!

   Kim Hyun Tae made up this idea right now.

Immediately, Jin Xiantai smiled and stretched out his hand to Jonathan, and said to him: "Thank you very much for this news. I am willing to invest 100 million US dollars in your film. As for the share, I think it is still 50%. I hope that there will be more in the future. Opportunities for cooperation."

   Vote for a peach and reward for a plum.

   Kim Hyun Tae is also very good at life.

   At the same time, Kim Hyun-tae also fully understands why Jonathan would tell himself the news. It is very simple. I hope that Lionsgate will not be happy. (To be continued.)
