Chapter 1344: Blockbuster's New Film Source

Marvel?

Aegel was stunned.

Marvel Comics (ICS) was founded in 1939 and is known as the two major comic giants of Magnesium Country, along with DC Comics (ICS), and has many IPs including Iron Man, Spider-Man, Captain Magnesium Country, Wolverine, Hulk, Black Widow, and superhero teams such as the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four.

Marvel has experienced ups and downs over the years and was acquired by Disney as its wholly-owned subsidiary at the end of 2009.

After being acquired, Disney has invested a lot of energy in Marvel, launching "Iron Man 2", "X-Men: The First Battle", "Thor", "Ghost Rider 2" and "Captain Magnesium Country" some time ago, with a pretty good box office response.

But the explosion point of Marvel has not yet arrived. Although the prototype of the Marvel Universe has taken shape in the minds of playwrights, no one knows whether this series can continue to succeed.

Especially since the filming has been completed and is about to be released next year, "The Avengers" invested more than 200 million magnesium, pouring into Disney's huge efforts. Many senior executives, including Eiger, are very worried about the box office of the film.

If "Avengers" succeeds, the Marvel series will continue to be filmed.

If it fails, most of the shooting plans may be suspended.

Eiger said: "Do you want the Marvel series? Our asking price is very high."

Li Rui smiled slightly and said, "Price is not a problem. I want the exclusive online broadcast rights of Meiguo and Huaguo."

The exclusive broadcasting rights mean that in the future, if viewers of Magnesium and Huaguo want to watch genuine Marvel movies online, they can only be on the Blockbuster website.

Eiger said: "Then the price will be even higher."

Li Rui said: "Everything has a price. I am willing to pay 100 million magnesium to purchase the exclusive online broadcast rights of the next fifteen Marvel movies, with a term of ten years."

"100 million magnesium!" Eiger was shocked.

This is not a small number.

Although 100 million magnesium is distributed to less than 7 million magnesium in each movie, you should know that "Captain Magnesium" invested 140 million magnesium, with a total box office of 370 million magnesium. After the box office is divided, the profit is less than 70 million magnesium. In addition, the subsequent release of DVDs and various peripheral revenues does not exceed 100 million, not to mention the "Ghost Rider 2" that invests 75 million magnesium in the box office of 57 million magnesium!

This is still the premise that Disney is extremely strong and can get a 65% box office share, otherwise the profit will be smaller.

Because of this, when Eiger heard the conditions given by Li Rui, he was immediately moved.

This price is more cost-effective than the distribution agreement with Netflix!

But Eiger didn't understand why Li Rui was willing to pay such a high price.

Of course, there is a reason for Li Rui to do this. After "Avengers" is released next year, the box office exploded. Not only did he win a box office of 1.5 billion magnesium, he also brought the Marvel movie series to a new level.

In the next decade, whether it is Disney's Marvel series, Sony's Spider-Man series, or related movies launched by other film companies, they will basically get good box office results, and at the same time, they will also cultivate a large group of Marvel fans around the world.

It seems like a huge investment to win the exclusive broadcast rights of the next fifteen Marvel movies for 100 million magnesium, but if you consider the traffic these videos can bring to Blockbuster, it will be insignificant.

"Are you sure it's the price?" Eiger said interested.

Li Rui said: "Of course I won't joke about business. 100 million magnesium is available in ten years, and 10 million a year. As long as it is an orthodox film of the Marvel series, no matter the box office is good or bad, it can be calculated within these fifteen movies."

Eiger almost agreed immediately, fearing that Li Rui would repent, but unfortunately he could not make the decision alone, so he could only say: "I am very interested in your proposal. I will discuss with the board members tonight and will give you an answer as soon as possible."

"I grew up watching Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. My daughter also likes Haizhou Disneyland and hopes we have the opportunity to cooperate." Li Rui said.

Aegel looked at him strangely: "Haizhou Disney has just started construction, and it will take about five years to complete..."

Li Rui was stunned and realized that he had confused his past life with this life.

After the completion of Haizhou Disneyland in his previous life, he took his daughter to him twice, and his daughter had a great time having fun every time...

"I mean Orlando Disney..." Li Rui changed the subject.

Eiger didn't take it seriously either.

Next, the two exchanged some opinions on the future development trend of the film and television industry, and the more they talked, the more they felt sympathy, and Eiger even expressed his hope that Li Rui could buy some Disney shares, so he could invite Li Rui to join the Disney board of directors.

The cocktail party ended up leaving nothing and no way to fight Silicon Valley.

Li Rui didn't care because it had little to do with him. Compared to the money he invested in Silicon Valley, the amount of money invested in Hollywood was more like a joke. Anyway, he bets on both sides, and no matter which side gained the upper hand, he could eat meat.

On the contrary, Blockbuster's subsequent development touched Li Rui's heart. He chatted with Zhang Ming two days ago and found out that since the launch of the Million-Magnesium Gold Award, Blockbuster has received some improvements to the algorithm every day.

Some of these methods gave Zhang Ming a great inspiration and were constantly improving the entire algorithm architecture.

From Zhang Ming's description, Li Rui has seen the prototype of the hot topic of Xiawen!

This is the best news Li Rui has heard recently.

The next day, Li Rui heard two more good news.

One is Disney's response.

Eiger obviously attaches great importance to Li Rui's proposal. After the cocktail party, he immediately negotiated with Disney's directors and senior management, and made a quick decision. They were willing to accept Li Rui's proposal and sell the exclusive broadcast rights of Magnesium and Huaguo Network of Disney's next fifteen Marvel movies to Blockbuster for 100 million magnesium.

Of course, Li Rui was overjoyed and immediately sent Jimmy and Zhang Wei to take the lawyer team to sign the contract to avoid having too many dreams.

The second good news was a bit unexpected.

Brian Burge and Royren returned to Magnesium with Mackenna.

Do you remember the scout named Eric Anderson that Li Rui and Luo Yiren met when they took Mackenna to the park in Haizhou?

At that time, Eric thought Mackenna was suitable for a character in a magnesium drama being filmed, and he took many photos for her and sent them back to Hollywood.

A few days ago, news came from Hollywood that Mackenna was invited to play an important role in the play IELTS Mi.

After Brian asked McKenna about her opinion, she accepted the invitation and took her back to Magnesium from Huaguo to participate in the shooting.
