Since 1983

"boss!"

"Jerry! How are you doing recently? Has Tom bothered you?"

"I have to say, the joke is not funny at all."

In Cactus Company, Xu Fei hugged fat Jerry. When people are in good spirits on happy occasions, this guy has a kind of rosy face, fat and rosy.

He has already spent fifty million dollars in Hollywood, and Cactus has also changed its office and rented a three-story building.

"To be honest, we have no experience in developing derivative products, and sales are even more difficult. At present, we can only cooperate with retailers to add our clothes and toys.

But Roy had a great idea, Roy, we're talking about you! "

A dark and skinny young man waved his hand, Xu Fei smiled back and asked, "Tell me specifically."

"For example, in "Mulan" that was released a while ago, all the gifts of McDonald's children's meal were replaced with Mulan overnight. We don't have these resources, so we might as well use the copyright to acquire it and authorize other parties to develop it, including the one you mentioned, er, sex Supplies..."

"Boss, you are a genius, "American Pie" and sex products are a perfect match!"

"I can't wait to try it!"

"Condoms must be printed with some chicken soup for the soul, such as 'Growing up is not only going forward bravely, but also paying attention to safety'."

A female employee finished the work, and in an instant, the office was filled with cheerful air. You drive, I drive, everyone drives, it is really good to drive together.

"President Xu, what are they laughing at?" Xiao Mo wondered.

"You didn't understand?"

"without."

"Why don't you understand?"

"I don't speak English."

"..."

Xu Fei scratched his head, rationalized his logic and gave up.

The biggest advantage of engaging in derivatives in Hollywood is effective copyright protection. It doesn’t work in China, it doesn’t work until now, just like “Let the Bullets Fly”, how many online stores sell gangster masks?

And "Monster Hunt", how many people sell Huba?

After talking about derivatives, Jerry reported on the issuance.

The Hollywood distribution process is complicated, and most theaters don't show up in person, but hire "film buyers" who have excellent film vision and negotiation skills.

Because distributors don't just sell one movie, they often package movies that theaters want with movies they aren't interested in, and balance the number of movies that theaters in the same region get.

This needs to be discussed. Exclusive interviews, premieres, face-to-face meetings, etc. are all conditions that can be exchanged.

However, "American Pie" is only one film, which is relatively easy. Its publicity and distribution funds are not enough to roll out across the United States, and it will first be shown on hundreds of screens in the greater Los Angeles area.

Then there is the cooperation model, which usually includes: buyout at a fixed price, guarantee, and share.

The points are divided into steps, the highest in the first week, and decreasing in turn in the second and third weeks. The specific number of points is up to discussion.

These years, the theaters are weak and squeezed by the film studios. A large number of them closed down at the beginning of the new century, and then the film studios gave in. The weekly ratio is relatively fixed, giving theaters a minimum profit standard.

Cactus brought in hundreds of screens, and in the first three days, it got 75% (distributor and producer). Big companies are great and can get 90%.

As for overseas distribution, audio-visual products, TV channels, etc., we can only cooperate with other companies.

…………

At the end of August, the summer vacation is coming to an end.

After the indiscriminate bombardment of various films such as "Saving Private Ryan", "Doomsday", "I'm Crazy About Mary", the enthusiasm for watching movies has declined. Why not take a look at "Titanic", which is still in theaters.

In fact, no matter which country, most of them are bad movies. If you think Hollywood is awesome, and you think Korean movies are great, it’s because you can’t watch bad movies!

All you see is essence.

Early this morning, Jessica Alba woke up groggy, tired and excited.

She ran to the bathroom, first took a decompression shower, and then washed as fast as possible. A young and beautiful body was reflected in the mirror.

She has always been very satisfied with her own capital. She made her debut at the age of 12 and has acted in several films. She is still a small role so far. But "American Pie" is different. I am very happy after reading the script. It should be popular... oh no, it will definitely be popular!

After a hasty breakfast, I headed out to a nearby movie theater.

After waiting at the door for a while, Brittany Murphy also came. The two didn't have much intersection in the play, and they didn't know each other well outside the play, but they really didn't have an appointment.

"Jack, what are you doing yonder? Are you going to jump ship?"

"Shut up, I just saw a poster."

"Do you want to watch a movie? Please, there is no girl to accompany you now, you let us two boys go to the movies?"

""American Pie", I seem to have seen its advertisement, it looks very interesting. Oh, there is a **** woman on the poster!"

"Jack, I don't think it's interesting for two boys to go shopping. It's better to go to a movie."

"Of course, we're 17!"

Two teenagers with pimples on their faces bought a ticket sneakily and sneaked in.

"American Pie" is rated R and children under the age of 17 must be accompanied by a guardian to watch.

Jessica suppressed her laughter and said, "Fortunately, I'm 17 years old, otherwise I would have to ask my father to come with me, it would be too embarrassing."

After the two went in, she looked around and said, "I thought we could have a premiere."

"A movie that can hold a premiere will not ask us to be the heroine." Brittany Murphy was merciless.

Ga!

Jessica's smile froze, and she instantly regretted asking her out.

Brittany didn't take it seriously, and both of them shouted in their hearts at the same time, Bichi!

In American education, sex and love seem to be completely separable. Although the first time is important, it is more of a necessary process for growth.

In the movie, it becomes the ignorance and longing of high school students.

At the beginning of the film, Jim with a naive face.

Come in with your parents.

"Is there something wrong with the reception?"

"Uh, yeah, I'm watching a wildlife show and I can't even see a sparrow."

Mother shrugged and was about to go out when the TV started calling:

"Do me! YES!"

"OH! BABY!"

Father also came in.

"He's watching restricted channels!"

"It's just that the reception is not clear, give me the remote control."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Everyone laughed.

The story of "American Pie" is very simple. Four virgin high school students agree to become adults together on the eve of graduation.

Xu Fei edited "Sex Is Empty" and deleted some plots, but not this one at all. It doesn't matter what kind of film is shown in the United States, let alone the live effect, which is 100% excellent.

Of course, "American Pie" isn't just a dirty movie.

The youthful atmosphere in it is very suitable for the audience, and it also has a little bit of sadness of growing up.

Jessica and Brittany are splitting their minds, watching the film and watching the audience.

Seeing that there was no urine point during the whole process, the atmosphere was enthusiastic, and even at the end, there were still lively discussions. The two couldn't help looking at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes:

It's really going to be on fire!
