Chapter 1038 (1/2)
While Xiao Yunhai was talking to Kerry, in the conference room of a five-star hotel, the heads of European and American courtyard lines gathered together and sat there for a meeting.
There are also several screens hanging on the wall, on which are a few bosses who can't get to the scene, all of whom have participated in by means of network video.
As the initiator of the meeting, Hanks said, ”thank you for your time in your busy schedule. The main reason why I invite you here is to discuss the issue of 3D screen together. ”
Michael Eisner of Warner took a sip of coffee, moistened his throat, and said, ”Xiao's dream special effects company has already offered a price of $350000 for a screen and $300 for a pair of 3D glasses. The camera is even more expensive, from millions to tens of millions. Hehe, after reading his offer, I just want to say that we Warner really can't afford it. ”
Disney's Kester nodded and said, ”it's still uncertain what the future of 3D movies is. Xiao's offer is really hard to accept. However, I know that he is not absolutely sure, he will not do so
Mark simpique, the president of Europe's largest cinema line, said: ”if you want to show 3D films, you must have a 3D screen. As long as you don't buy his account, I believe that the price will certainly drop. Only Yanhuang cinema in Huaxia is a big problem. Once they agree to transform the 3D screen, it will be tantamount to taking the bottom line. We will have to compromise in the end. ”
Hanks did not expect that he did not say anything. You and I gave the matter down, and it was just in his mind. He was ecstatic and said, ”we can send representatives to persuade the shareholders of Yanhuang cinema. I believe they will agree. After all, Xiao's price is too harsh. Once 3D movies are really popular, we will have to look up to him. ”
All of us here are the elite of human beings. I also know that Hanks's purpose of organizing this meeting is just for his world shaking gamble with Xiao Yunhai.
It's just that this matter is also very beneficial to them, so they have attended the meeting one after another, hoping to discuss a countermeasure to deal with the fierce 3D film.
Kester took a sip of his cigar and said: ”3D film is the development trend of the future entertainment industry, and it can't be stopped blindly. Our goal should be to force Xiao to reduce the price, rather than give up 3D film completely.”
Marksingpike nodded and said, ”Mr. Kester is right. I think if Xiao can reduce the renovation cost to less than $100000 and reduce glasses and cameras by 70%, then we can consider helping to promote 3D films. ”
”I agree with Mr. pike.”
”Yes, we have to force Xiao to reduce the price, or we would rather not show 3D movies in the future.”
...
hearing what everyone said, Hanks laughed in his heart. These mean guys even want Xiao to push the price down to this level. It's just a joke. I don't think Xiao will agree to kill him.
Once the talks between the two sides collapse, ”2012” will face the embarrassing situation of no cinema screening, and its own pressure will be reduced a lot.
These capitalists discussed for a full hour and worked out a series of plans with only one goal: to let Xiao Yunhai reduce the price by at least 70%.
At the end of the meeting, Hanks walked out of the room with a clear mind.
”Mr. Hanks, can I talk to you for a moment?”
Behind Hanks came Kester's voice.
Although he didn't like the old Hollywood fox, Hanks turned around and said, ”of course.”
They found a coffee shop and sat down.
Kester said with a smile: ”Mr. Hanks, in order to reduce his own risk, united with all the theater owners in Europe and the United States to deal with Xiao, which is really a good means.”
Paramount has now entered the animation industry in an all-round way. It has just launched three big animated films, and six star amusement parks have been opened one after another. Competition with Disney is inevitable.
At the meeting just now, Hanks meant that 3D movies should not be popular, while Kester changed his direction to forcing Xiao Yunhai to reduce the price, and did not completely reject 3D films. That is to say, as long as the price is right, the cinema can ask DreamWorks to transform the screen.
It can be seen from this that the two people's goals are obviously not the same at all.
Kester said that, instead of being kind, he hoped that Xiao Yunhai could not bear the pressure and reduce the price so that he could get benefits. At the same time, he could also show the 3D film ”2012” as usual to win the 20 billion bet and achieve the goal of killing two birds with one stone.
