Chapter 514 Good Carrot
Still unable to hold it in, Mr. Robert let out another "ouch".
On the other side of the ocean with a different time difference, at this moment, Robert was holding his cell phone and walking back and forth in the room, round and round, unable to stop at all!
Robert is extremely happy now that he agreed to Lin Gao and signed the agreement.
Of course.
It’s not that I’m glad I didn’t lose money.
I am glad that because of this condition, AMC agreed to increase the film scheduling rate to 20%!
This is a wise decision.
Judging from the box office on the first day, if we maintain this film schedule, we will definitely make money.
And they will make a lot of money!
Ga——
The excited Mr. Robert suddenly thought of a question.
In the negotiation conference room two days ago, he once righteously accused Huaxia Film of not being good, and refused to increase the film scheduling rate, only willing to give 15%.
He also said "shamelessly" that if Lin Gao wasn't starring and could generate a wave of popularity, they would only be willing to set the filming rate to 12%.
Robert: “…”
"Pa!"
Robert moved his lips, speechless, and reached out to slap himself on the face.
Oh my God...
Robert thought doubtfully that what he said at the beginning should not be too unpleasant, and it should not make Lin Gao and the others unhappy!
"Uh...ahem...that Mr. Lin Gao..."
Robert shook his beard, then lowered his voice and called Lin Gao with a hint of flattery.
"Huh? You say."
Lin Gao has a good temper.
What the lead actor Robert said in the conference room before seemed to Lin Gao to be true.
It’s just that gold powder was used to cover up peace in the past.
But Robert tore off all the facts and put them in front of Lin Gao and Xing Ye at the time.
Robert and AMC behind him were not willing to accompany him on the adventure. It was understandable. How could Lin Gao be angry?
If you want to be angry, you must first look for problems within yourself and the Chinese film industry.
This is the beautiful quality of Chinese people who dare to reflect on themselves!
But Robert, who heard Lin Gao's harmonious voice, felt even more embarrassed in his heart. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a good voice.
"It's like this. After seeing the first-day box office of "Kung Fu", our upper management at AMC are preparing to hold a meeting to discuss increasing the film schedule."
This is really good news!
After hearing these words, Lin Gao's body froze, his tone was a little hurried, and his breathing became two cents heavier.
“Really?!”
“Of course it’s true!”
Robert grinned.
"Don't worry, I will try my best to get more filming rates for "Kung Fu"!"
Robert didn't believe in evil before, but now he does.
His grandma’s.
Lin Gao, a Chinese actor, really has something evil about him!
What to act, what to explode.
Robert was convinced.
He was also vaguely excited.
If through his efforts, the film scheduling rate can be raised a little, and he really makes money in the future, then his contribution will be great!
His business radar was ticking in his mind.
Anyway, with that piece of paper to cover everything, he is not afraid!
When Lin Gao heard this, he quickly thanked him.
"If so, thank you very much, Mr. Robert!"
"Even if we only get one or two percentage points, we will be very happy!"
< br>Robert waved his hand.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin Gao. The box office on the first day has already given a satisfactory answer to the senior management. They should consider increasing it by 3-5 percentage points."
Lin Gao: "!!!"
Yeah!
Lin Gao couldn’t stop saying it.
This can be regarded as the first highest film placement rate obtained abroad in the history of Chinese films, right?
"Hey, I understand... I'm sorry, the meeting is about to start. I haven't had time to call Zhou to tell him the news. Can you please forward this matter to me?"
The conversation came from Robert's phone. Lin Gao obliged and said solemnly that there was no problem.
Then he hung up the phone, calmed down, opened the communication interface and found Master Xing's note.
Click to open.
Dial.
"Beep beep——"
About ten seconds, the call was connected.
There was also the rustling sound of getting up from there.
Most likely, he just got out of bed.
Sure enough.
Master Xing yawned, "Lin Gao? Calling so early?"
Lin Gao smiled brightly.
"Yes, did I wake you up, Master Xing?"
Master Xing smiled nonchalantly.
"It's nothing, I got up at this time."
"Is there something wrong?"
"Uh-huh, Robert called just now..."
Lin Gao repeated the conversation between the two people to Master Xing in the simplest words. As expected, Master Xing was shocked when he heard it.
He has just gotten up.
After calming down for a few seconds, the voice suddenly rose.
“28 million US dollars?! Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!”
“Our movie is so awesome!”
“There’s still more money to be made over there Improve our movie schedule! Ha! I’m telling you, this time it’s a success, right? You still look down on our Chinese movies, and now you see how they are rushing into the meeting, this is not the first one to hit me. Otherwise, I would have made a sarcastic comment.”
Master Xing is also one of those old people.
Just...
Hmm...
Lin Gao was silent for two seconds and said helplessly.
I now know why Mr. Robert called me first instead of you.
Maybe... probably because I am afraid of being scolded...
Lin Gao looked at the sky through the floor-to-ceiling windows speechlessly.
Then he spoke hard, trying to correct the problems in Master Xing's words.
"It's Mr. Robert. Next time if you call or in front of someone, don't call him by the wrong name."
Lin Gao warned.
Master Xing is disdainful.
"Oh, okay, pineapple."
Lin Gao: "..."
Taking a deep breath, Lin Gao was not going to correct the problem of the title.
The two chatted on the phone for a few more minutes, and then Master Xing took the initiative to hang up the phone, mainly because he wanted to tell other crew members the good news.
Everyone on the crew who heard the news was beaming with joy.
They all couldn't help but sigh.
Who said their Chinese films are not good?
Can’t good movies also achieve such box office success?
USD 28 million on the first day. Such an achievement can be proudly said to be comparable to those Hollywood blockbusters and no one will refute it!
The data will be made public soon.
Under Lin Gao's promotional Instagram, a batch of new comments suddenly appeared. They were all fans who came to leave messages after watching the movie.
“Oh my god, this is the first time I feel the charm of a comedy. It’s so good. This is a feeling that American movies can’t give you!”
“It’s really good. I’ve seen it before. I thought that Chinese movies have declined recently, but I didn’t expect that they are still very good.”
