Tom Odenberg and the other two talked briefly for a while before turning around and walking back. Chen Tian breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the expressions on the three of them.

"It seems you already know what we're going to say." Tom Oldenberg said with a smile.

"If I guess correctly, this video will impress you."

Tom Oldenberg looked at Chen Tian and asked, "If we were to release this video and buy out all copyrights, how much would it cost?"

Although he had a clear mind in his heart, Chen Tian couldn't help but his heart beat faster when this moment came. He even felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

He let out a long breath and forced himself to calm down. He had already thought about this possibility before coming. Later, the Lions Gate offered a high price of 4 million yuan. Now it is only 2003. The seven-year time difference can change a lot, but Chen Tian believes that an excellent movie can cross the boundaries of time.

So Chen Tian set a minimum price for himself at 3 million, but after seeing the film, the three managers who were used to countless excellent films were shocked. Chen Tian’s confidence was even more strong.

The box office in later generations was about 20 million US dollars worldwide, but Chen Tian was not sure how much it was, and he didn't know the specific release in North America.

In fact, the film had a box office of only one million dollars across the United States, and the rest of the box office came from overseas.

The highest overseas box office countries are Spain's $3 million, followed by Italy, France, Mexico and Australia.

Of course, the low box office in the United States is not because of poor results but because the release scale is too small. There are only 11 theaters on the first day of the trial in North America.

There are only 103 theaters at the maximum. How can this scale of release be achieved?

"Justin, how much do you think is appropriate?" Tom Oldenberg asked again.

All three of them thought this video was very good and didn't want it to fall into the hands of others. Seeing Chen Tian thinking about it, Chen Tian had other ideas.

"Excuse me."

"It's okay, how much do you think this video is suitable for?" Tom Odenberg asked again.

Tom Oldenberg's attitude made Chen Tian feel more confident. Since the other party wanted to buy, he would take the initiative. Now the only thing he was considering was to sell it at one time or share the profit.

According to the release scale in later generations, selling 4 million is considered a profit.

Moreover, now a film company wants to release an independent movie, and most of the ways to buy movies are directly bought out all copyrights at one time. Whether it is profit or loss in the future, it has nothing to do with you.

If he could sell for 4 million, Chen Tian would give up his plan to share the share.

"If you buy out, how much are you willing to pay?"

Tom Oldenberg never expected Chen Tian to kick him this question. He wanted to see something from Chen Tian's expression, but he could not see anything.

This made him feel a little nervous, and he even wondered if he had contacted other companies, and the other party had already given a price.

"Honestly, if this film was put at the St. Dennis Film Festival, I think the price would not be less than $2 million." Tom Oldenberg pondered, "But Justin, you know that it's already past that time, and there's no St. Dennis Film Festival..."

The meaning of Tom Oldenberg is self-evident. They want to lower the price, and the price will not be higher than 2 million.

Chen Tian laughed: "Mr. Tom Oldenberg, yes, now the St. Dennis Film Festival is over, but do you think this film is worth the price? Or do you have no confidence in your promotional release."

"How about $2 million? This is a very suitable price. No matter how high I can't give it to you."

Tom Odenberg was like a big decision.

"Is this the only way?"

"Sorry, this is the highest price I can give, which represents our Lions Gate's sincerity." Tom Oldenberg spread his hands, his face full of apology.

"Because the three of us are optimistic about it, we are willing to publish so many. To be honest, this video is still flawed. It's not exaggerated to say that it has a fixed group and is not suitable for everyone to watch."

The meaning of Tom Oldenberg is self-evident. He is telling Chen Tian that this film is very good, but the plot and meaning of its own representative are destined not as suitable for everyone to watch as those comedy superhero blockbusters, so the price is fair.

Chen Tian also knew that Tom Oldenberg was right, but the price of 2 million was still unacceptable to him.

"Mr. Odenberg, I know you said it well, but I can't accept the price. I urgently need money now. If you are willing to give me a good price, I think we will cooperate next time."

"Immediately needed?" Looking at Tom Aldenberg's puzzled face, Chen Tian explained: "Yes, Immediately needed. My partner is filming our second video, and we need to prepare funds for our third and fourth videos."

This is also a purpose. He wants to tell the other party that he has subsequent videos. As long as the price is raised, the subsequent videos will still give priority to the Lions Gate.

Chen Tian's words had a certain effect, which made the three of them feel incredible. They have seen too many people in the film industry for so many years.

They can't imagine that an ordinary person who is on the road of independent production would have so many filming plans.

Many companies may not have such intensive plans, not to mention that some small companies just rely on publishing other people's videos to make a living.

In addition to being shocked, they naturally thought that Chen Tian was lying. Looking at the questioning eyes of the three of them, Chen Tian shrugged and explained: "I know it is hard to believe, but that's the truth.

I think the three gentlemen also know what independent production depends on to survive. We do not lack this point, we only lack funds."

Production manager Michael Parsonneck looked at Chen Tian and said, "Justin, do you mean you have excellent scripts?"

“Yes, I don’t think we can’t start our shooting plan without the script.”

"Can we take a look?" Michael Parsonneck asked immediately. If the script in Chen Tian's hand is indeed excellent, then he would be ready to raise the price.

After all, it is not easy to be an excellent young director and screenwriter, and screenwriter and director are also lacking in Lions Gate.

The film "Buried Alive" can already explain something, but if the script in his hand is still excellent as Chen Tian himself said, he doesn't want to miss Chen Tian as a talent, he wants to pull Chen Tian into the Lions Gate.

"Sorry, I didn't bring it with me. Now I only have the script of "Buried Live"." Chen Tian shrugged, and he could basically guess what the other party was thinking.

"Justin, we three are very optimistic about you, up to 2.5 million. This price really cannot be increased. If there is no way, we can only do nothing." Tom Oldenberg said helplessly.

Chen Tian also knew that it was unlikely that the Lions Gate would raise the price, but the price was indeed a 1.5 million yuan gap from the 4 million he expected.

$1.5 million is enough for Chen Tian, ​​so Chen Tian had to give up the buyout.

"I have a suggestion that may help us solve this problem, but it requires both of us to take risks."

"What suggestions?" Tom Oldenberg asked, looking at Chen Tian.

"Preserve share." Chen Tian didn't want to choose to share the share directly, after all, he urgently needed money now.

Therefore, choosing a guaranteed share is relatively the most ideal result for him, but this also means risk.
