The box office of "Now You See Me 2" counterattacked North America at the box office of Country Z, something that no one expected.
Prior to this, the company's internal analysis, because this sequel added a lot of national Z elements, may have a different potential, but who would have thought that the box office would be cut in half on its own turf, and instead burst into brilliant sparks across the ocean , The fate is really elusive.
"How much is the North American box office?"
"Only $65 million~"
Yang Cheng took a breath, 65 million? This is too little. This is not a small production of several million dollars. New Era Pictures invested 90 million dollars in actual production costs for the second sequel. It claimed 100 million, plus the publicity cost, and the total investment US$120 million, North America, which is the main ticket warehouse, only has a box office of US$65 million, which is terrible!
"What about Country Z?"
"It is estimated that the final fall will be around 100 million US dollars~"
"So offline income must be a loss?"
Donna Lande said truthfully, "Yes, unless there is a miracle, it will be expected to lose 20 million U.S. dollars. Fortunately, online income can make up for the loss. Adding peripherals, there should be a small profit. The specific figures must be calculated in detail. ."
Yang Cheng said, "Then what do you mean by calling?"
"Regarding the development of the third part, I mean to put it on hold and wait a few years to give the audience a time to forget it before restarting. In addition, the Chinese director of the second part, Zhu, will be internally banned, and the time limit is 5 years."
Yang Cheng understands Donna Lande's meaning. It stands to reason that this matter does not need to be with his ward, but considering Zhu's Chinese identity, what if he has an intersection with the boss?
Regarding this, Yang Cheng's attitude is to do business by business, "No problem, it is true that a failed director should not cooperate anymore in the short term, let it be business by business."
Donna Rand breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, I'm all right here."
Yang Cheng stopped, "Wait a minute, will we have a movie to be released in the next few months?"
Don’t even think about this kind of thing. Donna Lande said without hesitation, “Yes, there is a small-cost movie called "Fate Live". The script exposes the current popular problems and is aimed at young people aged 18-25.
The main box office is Emma Roberts. "
Yang Cheng said, "What about the box office expectations?"
"The investment cost is not high, 10 million U.S. dollars, the expected box office is 40-50 million U.S. dollars, and there is not much pressure on profitability."
"That's good, one failure is okay, and two consecutive failures are never allowed."
"Understand, I will urge the Propaganda Department to work **** publicity."
"Good~"
After hanging up the phone, Yang Cheng stood on the balcony on the second floor and shouted to the second girl playing in the water downstairs, "Come back and take a hot bath. The temperature will drop in a while. Be careful to catch the cold."
Susu waved his hand without looking back, "I see, I'll go back later."
He shook his head helplessly, and wanted to find someone to rub his back.
. . .
The next morning, Yang Cheng finally saw the target of the trip, Harms Muhammad.
The other party had a temporary meeting to be held last night, so they had to cancel the meeting with Yang Cheng and moved to this morning to have breakfast together in the hotel.
Because it was a private meeting, both parties did not put on a stance. Yang Cheng did not even bring Su Su, and came to the restaurant alone. After waiting for about ten minutes, Leiden picked up Harms in the hotel cafe. Enjoy the breakfast buffet.
After the courtesy, Yang Cheng tore the Arabic-style naan bread with his hands, dipped it with hummus, and asked, "I heard that General Harms knows the culture of Country Z well?"
Harms is rather modest, "I don't know how to understand, I really like it."
"Then you should know that Bangguo people are so happy, they like to exaggerate their strengths and ignore their shortcomings, right?"
What Yang Cheng said, without talking or talking before, may not be understood by most people.
Fortunately, Harms’s IQ is not low, and he knows the meaning of today’s meeting. He said softly, “We are looking at the price/performance ratio. At this price, it seems that there is no more suitable choice than K2.”
Yang Cheng glanced at Leiden who was eating, "If I can get a batch of M1A2 at a price not higher than 50% of the K2 tank?"
Hams raised the spoon in the air and stared at Yang Cheng intently, as if he wanted to find a clue from him. Isn't that kidding?
The ex-factory price claimed by K2 is 9 million U.S. dollars. Even if South Korea offers a price of 10 million U.S. dollars, not more than 50%, that is, up to 15 million U.S. dollars, can you get an M1A2?
If this is the case, it is not impossible to consider. After all, the M1A2 is the most powerful tank at the moment. Oman naturally does not know that there are still a number of American goods in their army, and they understand the level of it.
But the price is still a bit high, which is why Harms frowned.
Yang Cheng couldn’t really eat the combination of naan cake and bean paste, put down the half-eaten cake, clapped his hands and said, “I’m just giving the highest price I can predict. The specific content will be discussed. For example, you can give me one now. Guarantee, I am confident that I will help you negotiate a lower price for the next order of 70 tanks.
Service account customers are also the purpose of our company. "
Before coming here, Hams did a detailed research on Yang Cheng. Hearing his slang about the sales field, he couldn't help but jokingly said, "When did the new era media start selling arms?"
Yang Cheng had no sense of being ridiculed at all, and said very frankly ~ www.novelhall.com ~ naturally there is no money to find a way to make money. "
When Yang Cheng said that he had no money, Harms didn't even believe a punctuation mark. In his opinion, this is the usual humility of the Chinese. Yang Cheng has no money? It is better to say that the desert of Oman has become an oasis.
No longer entangled with this question, back to the tank, after meditation, Harms gave a verbal guarantee, "If you can negotiate a price of 12 million US dollars, I am willing to immediately give an order for 70, no, 80 tanks. "
Yang Cheng was overjoyed. Unexpectedly, there were 10 more cars, a lot, worth 50 million US dollars.
As for whether Demien could get a tank at a price of 7 million U.S. dollars, that was not within Yang Cheng's consideration.
He felt that a second-hand tank sold for 7 million and the price was already high.
However, he was uneasy about the verbal assurance and licked his face, "General, should we sign a contract of intent? You know, some things can only be reassuring if they fall on paper. After all, it is a transaction worth 1 billion US dollars. , I can’t afford to pay if something goes wrong.”
"Mr. Yang joked. One billion is just a drop in the bucket for Mr. Yang."
Look at this little word of others, and now Yang Cheng believes that the other party is a Z country.
But why does this sound so cripple? The implication is to prepare to break the contract? Is Yang Cheng not bad for money anyway?
Fortunately, Hams didn’t let Yang Cheng waste more brain cells, and simply said, “You can sign an agreement of intent, but the conditions are limited. If it’s higher than US$12 million, the contract will be automatically cancelled, and you must compensate us for a certain amount. loss."
That is to set a penalty clause?
Yang Cheng thought upset.
In his opinion, this is a matter of daily deeds and welfare, why is it still stubborn?
