Witnessed history!

Such publicity tactics of South Korea’s Samsung Group shocked the world. This is the first time in the history of world movies that a Fortune 500 company is willing to spend billions of dollars to buy out the distribution rights of a science fiction movie and invite movie audiences around the world. Watch movies for free.

Of course, the effect is also significant.

Yesterday alone, the market value of South Korea's Samsung increased by 7.6 billion U.S. dollars, and the Samsung brand became widely known to movie fans around the world overnight...]

As soon as the news came out, it shocked the entire Internet.

The mobile phone Yang Hao carried with him kept ringing.

So, he had no choice but to throw his mobile phone at home and stroll to the Yu Xun Cafe opposite the Shanshui Wenyuan Community for a cup of coffee.

It had no other meaning, Yang Hao just wanted to calm down.

The more lively the outside world is, the more calm you must be as the planner of this business operation, because calmness can see things that others cannot.

For example, potential crises...

However, when Yang Hao came out of the community, he saw a black Audi A6. Without looking at the license plate, Yang Hao knew that it was Han Shanye.

What Yang Hao didn't know was that not only Han Shanye was here, but also Yu Dong from Bona Pictures, Wang Changtian from Enlight Media, and Wang Eicong from Wanda Film and Television. The three of them came with Han Shanye's Audi A6. of.

"Brother, I'm really convinced."

Wang Eucong spoke quickly and gave Yang Hao a bear hug when he came up.

"What did you do? I didn't do anything."

Smiling and patting Wang Eicong on the back, Yang Hao said: "It was Ms. Li Fuzhen, the eldest princess of South Korea's Samsung, who came to me three times before I reluctantly agreed. After all, it is not easy for a divorced woman. If your own company is competing for power with your brother, you must perform well. "

At this point, Yang Hao looked at the partners who had already gotten off the car, then smiled and said: "This time, don't you feel very relaxed?

Because there is no need to work, the money has already been obtained. "

"Haha, that's what happened."

Seeing what Yang Hao said, Hanshan Wild King Changtian Yudong, Wang Eicong and others laughed happily.

The partners are here.

Yang Hao did not go to drink coffee, but went to the Dongzhen Hot Pot opposite the community with everyone.

Although it's only ten o'clock in the morning and it's not time for lunch yet, who says you can't come over to eat hot pot at 10 o'clock in the morning?

Since Yang Hao, Zhang Yimou and Gong Li had come to this store several times before, the fat store owner had already become familiar with Yang Hao.

Seeing Yang Hao and others come in, he led a few of them to a seat by the window and sat down without saying a word.

"Boss, it's still the same, hand-cut beef and mutton, 4 servings of each. For seafood, we eat clams and shrimp sliders. As for the rest, you can watch it yourself."

"Dele, Director Yang, I guarantee that you will be satisfied."

When the fat boss saw Yang Hao ordering the food, he immediately waved his hand and went to prepare it.

As soon as the hot pot restaurant owner left, Yu Dong poked his head over.

"Yang Hao..."

"Um?"

"Are all the online reports true? The global distribution rights of "The Wandering Earth 2" were sold for US$1.2 billion at one time?"

"Roughly the same."

Yang Hao smiled.

"After a while, I will inform the general manager of my studio, Guan Jingjing, to contact you for work and fax all the contracts I signed with Samsung of South Korea, as well as other agreements between us."

Regarding this matter, due to the need for confidentiality, Yang Hao really did not tell several partners clearly, but only mentioned that he might sell the global distribution rights of "The Wandering Earth 1".

To be honest, hard-core domestic science fiction movies like "The Wandering Earth" really can't sell at the box office in Europe and North America, because whether they are old Americans or old Europeans, they only like white people to be heroes. , and he is also the kind of hero who saves the world by himself.

But the two movies "The Wandering Earth", although starring Yan Long, do not have the exciting fighting scenes that he is best at. It is estimated that Europe or the United States will not be interested in movies with this theme.

In this case, it is better to use "The Wandering Earth 1" to cultivate the market for free in Europe and the United States. It doesn't need to be more, just 10 million people. As long as "The Wandering Earth 1" can cultivate 10 million people in the European and American markets, for This type of movie is very interesting to the audience.

Then when "The Wandering Earth 2" is released, even without publicity or any frivolous manipulation, it will be able to earn a box office of US$250 million to US$300 million in the European and American film markets.

"So, Yang Hao, where is the money?"

"It's probably already arrived."

At this time, Yang Hao raised his wrist and looked at his watch.

"Mr. Han, Mr. Yu, and Mr. Wang, we will still follow the previous practice. Although it is this movie, I have the final say and sold the global distribution rights of the movie.

However, I have already told them that Samsung Company should use the account of China Film Group, and then China Film Group will distribute it to the few people present. "

As soon as Yang Hao finished speaking, Han Shanye's cell phone rang.

"Mr. Han..."

"explain!"

"Samsung South Korea suddenly transferred a transfer to our company's account. The specific amount is US$800 million. I would like to ask how to handle it?"

"Why is it 800 million?" Wang Eicong, who was about to eat hot pot around the dining table, suddenly frowned and asked before Han Shanye could hang up the phone.

"Yes, the first tranche of funds is 800 million, and the other 400 million is for the second tranche. You will know when you see the contract." After chatting here, Yang Hao stood up, raised his wine glass, and said:

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Han, Mr. Yu... Come, let's drink to the fact that our movie "The Wandering Earth 1" can successfully cultivate a large number of loyal movie audiences around the world."
