Vol 2 Chapter 137: Great deal!

I have to say, dear Kris, you are taking a risk. Piece, patted the armrest, looked at the daughter behind the table and said, "a full 100 million investment ..."
To Dad. "
"Is there a difference?" Jared spread his hands.
"Of course, if you can only take it down, you can make more with less investment, right?" Angela said seriously.
"If such a large amount fails, there is a big difference between more losses and less losses." Father pointed out politely, and then tapped on the document, "And you also said that in the initial contact with the 20th century Fox's asking price is that if you insist on winning, and the publicity costs, the entire investment will reach 12 dollars, which is already a large investment movie cost. "
"Have you really read my plan in detail, Dad?" The girl could not help rolling her eyes. She naturally knew what her father was worried about. After all, this investment was several times the last time, and it existed at the time. The same invisible profit risk.
What Angela planned was to buy the North American screening of Titanic from Fox! Bucklot's phone confirmed her expectation that Fox had begun to sit still because of James ’crazy money-burning operation. Although they were forced to agree to additional investment again, they hoped not to drag on it and release it in the summer season as soon as possible. However, James But they clearly told them that if you want to ensure the quality of the film, it is absolutely impossible to release it in July.
Fox executives were half-dead. This film took almost a year to shoot, not to mention the previous preparations, and now post-production has been dragged on again and again, trapping the entire company's working capital. And there are signs that it will not be collected, which is too bad, and even worse is that even if the box office of "Titanic" can sell 3 ounces, it will inevitably go bankrupt! It's no wonder that Barclot will yell at Irken "being forced to sell ".
But this step has already been reached, what else can they do? So after the anger, Barclot had to advise Melken on the phone to sell the Titanic North American screening rights!
There is indeed such a thing in the memory of the girl. According to some gossip, Fox was actually ready for bankruptcy at that time, but with the intention of losing a little, it was a little bit of thought to "Titanic" North America The screening rights were sold to Paramount at the same price. No one knows whether Fox executives have breasted their feet after the movie was released, but Paramount obviously made a lot of money. You must know that the box office in North America is as high as 600 million US dollars. circle!
Angela naturally won't let this go. Buying a screening right in North America can be more cost-effective than directly investing in a movie. As she calculated before, if the box office is unchanged, direct investment because of such and such exploitation, the net profit will not exceed the cost. If you replace it with the party who purchases the screening rights, it will be cut off-the travel expenses, publicity costs, costs, theater line account, tax payment, etc.-at least 100 million net profits, so why not let people be moved? ? !!
As for the Fox side, they will be puzzled because the genius girls take the initiative to contact them to purchase screening rights. Don't sell it ... of course it's impossible. Unless Fox holds a major shareholder or walks by-even if it is not possible. You know in the hearts of many executives. Bankruptcy is already on the ground. If Angela makes a purchase and doesn't sell himself, he will step down. It is the major shareholders that must be boycotted by other shareholders. It's that simple!
"I know what you mean. Dear the bottom line. If you exceed this price, you give up. But I want to say that this is not the case." Jared shook his head. I repeated the words just now: "You are taking risks. Even if this film has been invested and produced for almost two years. But it is not guaranteed to be successful. I don't understand film production. But it is like you were against your investment in Pixar. .Some things are the same. I know you do n’t like business. You do n’t know enough. So when you make your own investment decision, should you be more cautious? "
"Speaking of Pixar. How do you think it is operating now?" Angela leaned forward immediately. Looking at his father questioningly with his hands in his belts.
The little girl who wanted to get his father's approval made Jared laugh lightly: "I admit you made a very smart decision to invest in Pixar. Chris. But I want to say ..."
"Then" The Witch Blair Gila flattens her lips. Continue to ask anxiously. "I bet. After you learn the news. Like everyone else, I think I just want to play. But what happened? "
"Okay. Kris ..."
Dad, listen to me! I'm the screenwriter and soundtrack of this movie, and I know what kind of movie it will be. Although I didn't participate in the filming, I only know it second to James Cameron! I know better than anyone what kind of chemical effect it will have when it's released. You can't convince me here, dad, this is my place! "The girl shook her fist
Shouted fiercely, as if facing an unintentional + who broke into his own territory]]-
Suddenly she smiled, with a narrow mind: "If you don't want to loan me, then I have to find someone else, I believe many people will rush to do it."-Hey, who is different now Already 16 years old?
At this moment, because of this speech, Jared had to hold his forehead deeply and felt that his daughter was fully grown up. He looked at Angela with a bit of sorrow and smile, but for a while I did n’t know how to decide, although she was already 16 Age, legally have the right to use her property, but the guardian also has the right to prevent her from spending money, but if Angela would do it, would she be happy?
Would you like me to go crazy too? He asked himself this way, it seemed that his daughter had been blessed by God. Although she seemed to be stupid, she never left her.
"Okay, I think-I promised you." After thinking for a long time, Jared had to make a compromise. He knew that if Angela was really rejected, her daughter would definitely find a bank loan and really prevented her. Although it would not make the relationship between father and daughter tense, Angela was unhappy and sure ... and he also wanted to see if God would bring her a miracle again!
In short, but 1.2 billion US dollars, it should be a lesson to buy, since the daughter is also a little bit: Cheng Mason's business sensitivity-just investing in Pixar can not explain anything-then let her understand this more clearly All right.
Angela, who didn't pay attention to her father's expression, got her hands to form a fist and forced it down after getting the answer she wanted: the sentiment overflows with words.
Fortunately, she quickly converged, and she was sitting up, but she couldn't hide that little pride.
"So, Jack, I'll leave it to you for the next negotiations with Fox." She looked at Jack Sparrow, who was always a visitor, and smiled.
"As you wish." Jack nodded slightly.
"Okay, then I won't bother, dear father." Angela stood up, hugged one around her desk and her father, and then left alone, letting Sparrow and her father continue the loan negotiation.
Out of the study door, the girl could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and she seemed to be acting well. She had to make herself look in front of her father-hoping to get her father's approval in terms of business ability, but at the same time It shouldn't be too obvious, it's just right.
She won't really think that she can completely control her property when she is 16 years old. If she only spends 30 to 40 million funds, her father will definitely not say anything, but if she is close to 100 million, she will definitely ask, then use ordinary methods. Can you convince my father? Just like investing in Pixar and making "The Witch Blair" before, these things are hard for anyone to think of until there is no result, just as Fox was obviously ready for bankruptcy, but did not expect to be miraculously resurrected.
Therefore, it must be said that Angela can only use this method, just like when investing in Pixar, asking her father to agree with her investment with a mentality of buying a lesson. Fortunately, she succeeded, although when she left That pride can't stop showing, but it doesn't matter anymore, the father will take back what he said.
After the release of "Titanic", you will be surprised! The girl hummed her nose and returned to the room.
Time slowly went to June, and "My Eternal Heart" has been recorded. Perhaps it was because of the sister Xi Zhi in front of her. Angela always felt that this version was inadequate, but everything she heard was considered perfect. Even James this guy agrees, it's a reassuring girl.
However, the post-production of "Titanic" is still advancing at a speed of turtle. No one can keep up. Fox, who is completely disappointed, has to focus his efforts on negotiating the screening rights in North America. Several film companies he has contacted Warner, Universal, Columbia, Paramount, etc., shook their heads when they heard about the film production, and Spylow, who was commissioned by the same authority, just revealed the news and left.
Fox, who was everywhere, was exhausted, and even sent people to the tyrant's studio to Angela who occasionally went back to participate in the work of adding the soundtrack to the movie, and the girl who gave it to the economic man naturally shirk naturally, but helpless Fox had to To make as low a price as possible was quickly suppressed.
"We can make it a little bit lower. If we join forces with other companies that are interested, at least we can say that Sparrow said so to Angela during the negotiations, but the girl is not a businessman after all and did not agree. In her opinion, although the big cake was divided from Fox, it should not be too greedy. There must always be room to do things. To be honest, the value of "Titanic" is less.
So, after the last few discussions, Sparrow won the North American screening of Titanic for the girl for the price.
