Chapter 376: I am used to it, right?
Elizabeth took the check and looked at it. The amount was $30 million. According to Eric’s previous message, the dance with the wolf was only 18 million. The film has not yet been released, so there is no cost. Then these 30 million are enough to buy out the entire movie and the issuance contract of Orion. If the negotiation strategy is right, it may even be spent.
For most Hollywood studios, investing in a movie costing about $20 million, through a few years of distribution, if you can make more than 50% of the profits, then this project is a great success. Movies with super high returns like "Little Ghosts" have not necessarily appeared in Hollywood for a few years. Hollywood is more common, but millions of investments have gone in, and finally lost.
However, at this time, Elizabeth raised the check in her hand and glared at Eric with a contemptuous look: "You bastard, you can't be shameless again, I made a big villain, and the movie ownership I bought was owned by you. Don't even think about this kind of thing."
Eric’s face was not red-hearted and asked: “Do you have money to buy it yourself?”
"I can borrow from my father."
"Well, the check is still me, you just haven't been here today," Eric said with a hand.
Elizabeth subconsciously wanted to return the check, but soon it was collected again. Eric was so simple, but she felt a little uneasy, hesitated, and Elizabeth was reluctant to say: "One person, you take 15 million, I will ask 15 million with my father."
"The check is still me."
"You bastard, the copyright belongs to you, but it is issued to Fox. Is this the head office?"
"The deal," Eric smacked his face and smiled again. He said, "In fact, I haven't finished it yet. This is one of them. You can use this condition as a bait to tell the producer of this film. As long as they agree to sell the movie to you, you can lobby Fox to help release it, and even promise to help them release the movie. For this Hollywood small production company, climbing a giant like Fox is like Wal-Mart. Promise to help a small workshop to underwrite their products. The lure is very big, as long as the bait is thrown out, as long as the boss of the production company is not a fool, it is impossible to refuse."
After Eric finished, the living room was quiet for a few seconds. Drew and Julia soon understood that Elizabeth was pitted by Eric. The two girls suddenly slammed on the sofa and laughed. Elizabeth once again lost her pillow in her arms: "You **** It’s cheaper for my family, I’m not doing it, I’m not doing anything, you’re going to be a big villain yourself.”
"I am using resources reasonably. And if I personally come forward, this movie will definitely be regarded as a big gold mine by everyone. When I want to grab it again, the possibility is almost zero. So this time I can not only come out, but also I can't even get any contact with me. I will try to avoid it. You have to install it like a bit."
Elizabeth's nephew lit up and looked at Erik with a pointed little chin. "Oh, that's true. The movie you are watching now, even a bunch of rubbish. It will be regarded as a baby. So, I can leave you alone."
"Yeah. You'd better convince your dad to let Fox TV and Fox Pictures take a break with me. To be honest, put "Friends", "Who will be a millionaire" and the next " "X Files" was broadcast on Fox TV, and I think it is still quite a loss."
Elizabeth immediately said: ""Millionaire" and "x-file" Fox and Firefly share copyright, you can't take it, and "Friends" has also signed several seasons."
"But I can let the first two projects run aground as I did at the beginning of the year. I can't make money anymore. Anyway, I have a lot of ideas in my mind, and I have conceived a few TV series. As for Friends, hey, then It's even simpler."
Elizabeth was not willing to say: "If you want to do this, the reputation in Hollywood will stink home."
"If you can bring a lot of profits to them, who cares if their collaborators are angels or devils?"
"son-of..." Elizabeth couldn't help but just wanted to swear a swearing word, but in the face of Eric's threatening eyes, the girl immediately swallowed the last word: "You...the bad guy, I can't do it." The bad guys help you get the copyright, and finally you can't get any benefits. You are like Balzac's miser."
"We just didn't say it right, got the copyright, issued by Fox. In the information I got, this is a four-hour movie, four hours, you should know what it means, the cinema is the most daily. It can only be played in four games. The box office of this movie is definitely not very good. It is estimated that I have to rely on the final video tape release to recover the cost. I am interested in the Oscar potential of this movie. The fireflies also need some Oscar film decoration. Lower facade."
Eric said that the truth is true. Although the film won the important awards such as the best film and the best director in memory, Eric did not know how the box office of the film was, but according to the memory. The movie’s four-hour duration, Eric felt that the box office of "Dance with the Wolf" should not be too good.
Elizabeth was surprised: "Four hours, are you really?"
"Yeah, four hours, longer than the "Godfather", although I think this movie may be good, but I think it is impossible to exceed the "Godfather"."
"Well, I believe you once," Elizabeth said, looking at the check in her hand, her eyes turned and said: "I heard that you made a lot of money in the oil futures market, then the money to buy If there is any remaining after the copyright, I will not give you back, I will use it as a pocket money."
"This is no problem," Eric said with a smile.
Elizabeth pretended to be surprised and said: "Ha, unbelievable, the ghost can actually say such a thing."
"I have always been very generous about my own woman."
The voice just fell, and another pillow came over.
Eric ah couldn't bear it, grabbed the pillow again, got up and walked around the coffee table and went to Elizabeth: "The third time, Xiao Yan Niu, I am used to you."
Elizabeth screamed and tried to escape, but Eric pressed it on the sofa.
"Hey, hello, how can you hit a woman, you bastard, oh, Julia, save me, oh wow, you go to play Drew, she likes it, bastard, stop." (To be continued)
