043. [Creating myths](2/2)

Before coming to negotiate, I have obviously found out all the details about Yi Feiyang. I have already designed a cover, and I am afraid that you will not obey?!

Faced with the temptation of three million US dollars, Yi Feiyang did not put the check directly in his pocket, but returned it.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Gusta. Although I need money very much, this little money is dispensable to me!"

Gusta smiled, "I don't quite understand this. Why didn't you sell it immediately after you bought it for 200,000 for 3 million? Do you think this drama has greater value?

?”

"Yes!" Yi Feiyang said, "Whether you think I am greedy or you think I am talking big words, I can tell you clearly..." Yi Feiyang looked at Gusta with an oppressive look, and then

He said mysteriously: "The box office of this drama will exceed 100 million in the future!"

Gusta smiled very elegantly, "Dear Mr. Yi, although I haven't been involved in movies for a long time, I have done my homework before this. Yes, your "Blair Witch" is indeed very popular.

, especially after you made a series of small moves to make it popular, many people are full of curiosity about it, so I boldly guessed that the box office of this drama can exceed 10 million, and it is precisely because of this that I will come up with it.

I’ll give you three million... But now, you actually say that its box office can exceed 100 million in the future, which really makes me a bit... haha, you know, it’s unimaginable!"

Yi Feiyang nodded, "Oh, really, I seem to have said something wrong..."

Gusta thought to himself: "This Chinese man is quite saved and knows how to admit his mistakes."

But before Gusta finished thinking, Yi Feiyang said: "I really made a mistake just now. This drama is not capable of breaking 100 million, but can break 200 million!"

Gusta, who was drinking tea, almost spit out a mouthful of tea.

"Ahem, did I hear you right? Dear Yi, what did you just say? Breaking 200 million? Just this drama?"

"Yes, Mr. Gusta, if you don't believe it, we can take a gamble..." Yi Feiyang smiled strangely, which made Gusta feel like he saw a fox, and an old fox.

"How to bet?"

"Just these three million..." Yi Feiyang pointed to the check on the table, "If you are willing to add another three million, making a total of six million, invest it all in the promotion of this drama, and use this

This mockumentary has become a hit all over the United States, making people think it is a true story. If you want to watch it, I guarantee you that the global box office of this drama will definitely exceed 200 million in the future!"

"Spend six million for publicity?" Gusta took a breath. You must know that Lionsgate Pictures has just been established for just over a year. Most of the movies it shoots are small and medium-low-cost productions, often one movie.

It was only a few million dollars invested, but now, having to spend six million to gamble on the future of a low-cost small movie is really a huge bet.

Seeing that Gusta was still hesitating, Yi Feiyang said excitedly: "Why don't you dare? I thought Mr. Gusta was so heroic and would definitely give it a try. We have a song in China that says you will win if you love to fight. I don't know.

Does Mr. Gusta have the courage?!"

Gusta smiled, "Yes, your bet is a bit high, but it seems that no matter whether you win or lose, you won't lose much."

"How could it be? If this movie can't break 200 million, I don't want a penny! If after spending 6 million in promotional funds, the box office really exceeds 200 million, then I demand to get 100 million after the box office share.

Thirty-thirds of the profit! How about it, this isn’t too much to ask for, right?”

Yi Feiyang's words made Gusta laugh, "Fox, this Chinese is a fox."

"I understand. In fact, it means that you have accepted my three million, but you took it out and used it to promote the movie, and then made a bet with me that if the box office exceeds 200 million, you will share the dividends.

Yeah?"

"Wow, Mr. Gusta is really a smart man. He understands it right away. Look, don't I also have risks in this bet? A risk of three million US dollars!"

"But I always feel like you're trying to do nothing!"

"Illusion, this must be your illusion! How could I do that! I'm not that kind of person! I'm so embarrassed to be empty-handed!" Yi Feiyang argued. "In short, this gamble is very interesting, if you agree

If so, then we are likely to write a Hollywood myth in the future! Think about it, my friend, a small movie with a cost of only 20,000 yuan has created a myth of 200 million box office. For you Lionsgate Pictures, it is simply

A kind of invisible propaganda! Whoever mentions it in the future will not say that you, Mr. Gusta, have vision and courage! That your Lionsgate Pictures has a future and good luck! To put it bluntly, I am thinking about you.

Help you build your company’s golden brand! But this kind of brand cannot be built easily, nor can it be forged with money. It requires opportunity and courage. Now, the opportunity has come, where is your courage?!"

If Gusta hadn't been a wise man, he would have almost been made to agree immediately by Yi Feiyang's words.

"You are right, dear Mr. Yi. This is indeed a very good opportunity, but in my opinion, it is a bit of a fantasy for this drama to break 200 million. How about this, 3 million, I will

How about 3.1 million plus a small change for you? Even if we become friends!"

"Haha. I just said that I don't lack the money. Whether it's three million or three million and one million, I just want to work with you to create miracles! Do you understand that miracles are more unlikely to happen?

The more things become, the more worth creating, isn’t it?!”

Yi Feiyang's unyielding behavior made Gusta very angry. At the same time, he also became interested in Yi Feiyang's bold gamble.

Touching the mustache often worn by American tycoons, Gusta fell into deep thought.

Yi Feiyang did not disturb him and just drank tea silently.

The person who can create Lionsgate's ambitious hegemony must also be an ambitious person, unless he is wrong.

Indeed, Gusta is ambitious and has ambitions to become a major Hollywood film company. From a banker to a filmmaker, Gusta has a belief and slowly rises to dominate the world.

Now, is this an opportunity or a challenge?

"Okay, dear Yi, I agree to your proposal. I will spend 6 million U.S. dollars to promote "The Blair Witch Project." The box office exceeds 200 million. After the box office is divided, after excluding all expenses and taxes, you can get 100 million U.S. dollars.

The fifteen-cent dividend can only be fifteen, not thirty!"

As a banker, Gusta is shrewd. He directly calculated all expenses and taxes, and cut the 30% proposed by Yi Feiyang in half, so that Yi Feiyang, a guy who only wants to get dividends, understands that money

Not that easy to make money!

Yi Feiyang smiled. After all, it was the first time to cooperate. Although the proposed share was cut in half, it was at least a good start, so he stretched out his hand and said: "I wish us a happy cooperation!"

You lion!

Gusta shook it and said, "Happy cooperation!"
Chapter completed!
