Chapter 657: Kerry's grudge

At seven o'clock in the evening, Xiao Yunhai and the three came to a newly opened steak restaurant.
I heard that there are good wines in it, so Kerry chose this restaurant with Jessie with the mentality of being a local tyrant.
Asking for a bottle of Lafite in 1982, Kerry said contentedly: "It's still a free red wine fragrance."
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Kerry, you have to pay attention to your words and deeds. Isn't America very particular about gentlemanly demeanor?"
Kerry said nonchalantly: "It's purely pretending, and it's mainly for outsiders. There is a saying in China that it's a if you are cheap. Although I still haven't figured out what a is, I I still think this sentence makes sense."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I really convinced you."
Jesse on the side said: "Xiao, the sales of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" have been counted all over the world, and the total is 93.6 million copies."
Kerry asked, "Jesse, tell me, how much money can he get from it?"
Jessie said: "If it is calculated at the current exchange rate, it is almost 360 million U.S. dollars."
Kerry said with a regretful look: "Hearing this number, my mood is almost to the extreme. I have missed at least 2 billion because of 5 million. This is not even the income of the movie. God, I am going crazy. Up."
Jessie said: "The four major European publishing houses have already called, and I hope you can give them the second Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Wait after the screening of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is over. Kerry, when will our movie be released?"
Kerry said: "It should be about mid-March."
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Great. Ha ha, I am going to publish the next Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets at my own expense."
Jessie said, "Xiao, it seems you can make a fortune again."
Hearing Jesse's words, Kerry shouted with a grieving expression: "Waiter, give me another bottle of Lafite for 82 years."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Okay, Kerry. Your MGM dinosaur battle has taken away 4.2 billion US dollars in the world, what else do you want?"
Kerry said: "But don’t forget, our investment is 800 million US dollars, and it took a full two years to complete. And your "Jing Wu Hero" only invested tens of millions, less than two months of shooting. It won 4.9 billion US dollars. How do you compare with us. And the "Harry Potter" series, which is simply a cornucopia. Once the movie is shown all over the world, it will definitely stimulate the sales of your novels. There is no problem at all. The next second, third..., my God, I just calculated it roughly, each Harry Potter, you can make at least 1.5 billion More than US dollars. Oh, my head hurts again when I think about it now."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "No way, who made you unwilling to spend five million dollars in the first place."
Kerry glared at him, gritted his teeth and said: "Xiao, you want to talk about this again, I'll break your relationship with you."
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "Well, I promise not to talk about it in the future. Kerry, your Hollywood movies are very powerful in China now, and what you have made domestically-made movies is a lot of fun. To be honest, your eight major theaters are Didn’t we negotiate long ago to use this intensive offensive method to compete for our China market?"
Kerry nodded and said, "That's right. We carefully researched and determined which movie will be released when it will be released. The purpose is to occupy the market share and make our Hollywood presence. If it weren't for your film and television. The bureau’s review of films is too strict, and we are afraid that more films will be shown."
Xiao Yunhai said: "In the past month or so, the total box office of our domestic films in China has been less than one-tenth of yours. Kerry, your goal has been achieved."
Kerry said angrily: "What? Xiao, your Huaxia government is too hateful. Seeing that we spent $120 billion to buy Huaxia Cinema, he promised others to build new theaters across the country. This is simply It's shameless."
Xiao Yunhai argued: "Kerry, I can't blame the Huaxia government, you are playing too much. Huaxia Cinemas accounted for 60% of the entire market share, and you didn't even leave a mouthful of soup for Huaxia. This is already It has reached the bottom line of the government. China will never sit back and watch its entertainment industry gradually be eaten away by you, do you understand?"
Kerry said: "But we did not violate business laws by doing so."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "The Huaxia government agrees to one or two companies to build new theaters. It is also a normal business practice and it does not violate business laws. Isn't it?"
Kerry said angrily: "You are playing the side ball."
Xiao Yunhai said: "That's right. But if you play the side ball well, you can still enter the hole."
Jessie said: "You two, you are arguing here, it is of no use. What does the Chinese government do? You said nothing."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Yes. Kerry, it seems very excited by your appearance, why?"
Kerry sighed: "Do you know how much we paid to get China Cinemas? The eight major Hollywood studios have almost drained all the liquidity. In addition, the fluctuations in the economic crisis continue. We continue to make film money. It's all gone."
Xiao Yunhai said in surprise: "No. I think you are very happy to shoot. Every company has several movies shooting."
Kerry smiled bitterly: "We have pledged our shares of China Cinemas to the bank. More than 400 billion shares have been loaned out to only 160 billion, and the average company is only 20 billion. I rely on, you are simply too cheating. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "You are to blame. In terms of financial resources, the big companies in our country are not worse than you, but why don't they fight. It's not because that part of the theater is not worth the price, so they gave up . You spent more than 400 billion to buy a cinema circuit worth 200 billion. In our Huaxia language, you are being taken advantage of."
Kerry said: "We have no choice. Forget it, let's not talk about it. If your "Infernal Affairs" needs our Huaxia Cinemas, I can help you talk about it."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you. However, I have already found Starlight Cinema and signed the contract."
Kerry said: "That's a pity~EbookFREE.me~ I have a foreboding that this movie will be hot."
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's for sure."
Three days later, "Infernal Affairs" passed the review. Xiao Yunhai didn't waste any time and immediately uploaded the trailer to the major video websites. Those famous portals also released "Infernal Affairs" in the most prominent position. Show information.
At the same time, Xiao Yunhai asked Jesse to help print 100,000 posters and posted them in bookstores all over the United States.
These publicity expenses cost Xiao Yunhai 120 million U.S. dollars.
Of course, the results achieved are also very good.
