Let you invest, you support half of the entertainment industry?

The vice president's face turned pale. He knew the concept very well.

This means that the Chinese market alone can cover half of the box office return of "The Meg".

This is an indispensable channel for Warner and even any entertainment company.

After all, film production companies are most worried about how to resist risks. Don’t think that making big productions is prestigious. In fact, if you lose money, it may shake the foundation of the group.

20th Century Fox didn't collapse because of repeated failures.

Having the Chinese Film Market is equivalent to reducing the risk by half before filming starts.

But so far, the effect of Hollywood blockbusters is not so obvious in the Chinese film market.

This is why Hollywood is not as enthusiastic and flattering to China as before.

But the response to "The Meg" made Kevin discover a shortcut.

For a shark monster movie that is not loved by the Chinese film market to achieve such a high box office, it only shows that Jiaxing and Yang Mi played a much greater role in improving the box office than they imagined.

The more this happens, the less determined he is to cut off from the other party.

In fact, if he made this discovery public, no Hollywood film and television company would refuse to cooperate with Jiaxing.

It's very simple, no capital can refuse the temptation of reducing risks and increasing profits.

"Tell the people below to be honest and not to make any small moves against me. If I find out, get out of here!" Kevin said sternly.

When it comes to Jiaxing, nothing is trivial.

"Understood." The vice president wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded.

"I will raise Yang Mi's treatment to another level according to the standards of the group's top artists. Don't forget that she is not only a Chinese star, but also a shareholder of Jiaxing. With her relationship with Xu Jia, she can influence the situation to a certain extent. Please pay attention to this when making decisions in Jiaxing," Kevin warned.

Otherwise, he could sit in the position of president for so long, know every detail, and would not let go of any detail.

"yes!"

The vice president had no excuses this time.

Obviously, the good relationship with Jiaxing is a general trend within the group.

…

"Have a safe journey. When you come back, you will become an international superstar after all."

Xu Jia stepped forward and gave Yang Mi a hug and said with a smile.

This is Beijing Daxing Airport, where he is sending Yang Mi to fly to the United States to participate in Warner's promotional arrangements.

"The Meg" surpassed "Mission: Impossible 6" in its first weekend box office, becoming a rare dark horse in the Hollywood film industry in August.

As the leading female lead, Yang Mi also broke the record for the highest first-day box office in North America for a Hollywood movie starring an Asian actress as the heroine with this role.

In addition, the film's global first-day box office gross was US$80 million, which became the highest record in the history of a Chinese-American co-production with an unassailable advantage.

With this foundation, it will be much easier for Yang Mi to enter the international film industry.

He is even regarded by domestic media as the person most likely to succeed Emperor Gong.

But when Xu Jia saw it, he sneered and didn't take it seriously at all.

Gong Li's popularity overseas is biased towards literature and art, which is also the path for most Chinese actors in the overseas film industry.

When it comes to commercial value, Yang Ziqiong is the undisputed number one. As this female star has aged, she has become a representative figure of Chinese women.

But the position Xu Jia arranged for Yang Mi was neither literary nor artistic, nor a symbolic figure of a certain ethnic group, but a real commercial female movie star.

"The Meg" is just the beginning. As long as Yang Mi appears in one hit movie after another and her image deepens in the hearts of movie fans around the world, she will get the treatment she deserves sooner or later.

"It's best that you take some rest in the company. It's such a big place and you don't need to do everything yourself. There are also uncles, aunts, my father and my mother. You can visit me more often, and you can even give me my share." Yang Mi said casually.

As for parting emotions, there was none at all.

As a female artist, she has long been accustomed to this kind of life.

It's not like she won't return to China. Her roots are always in China. Both parties know this.

"Sure, come back soon. I can't handle the firepower at home alone."

When Xu Jia said this, he paused and stretched out his hand to tuck the latter's collar: "Be careful over there in North America. There are many companies that are hostile to us. It may not be a big deal on the surface, but secretly it's a little trouble. I’ll be fine, thank you for your hard work, I’ll celebrate your success when you come back.”

"Don't worry, who am I? When you were still in school, I was working hard on the set. You don't need to teach me this."

Yang Mi patted Xu Jia's hand, waved to Miao Yuqing on the side, and walked into the security checkpoint casually.

After watching the other party's back disappear at the security checkpoint, Xu Jiacai looked at Miao Yuqing.

I found that the latter acted like an ostrich, pretending not to see anything.

The corner of his mouth suddenly rose: "What are you hiding from? It's like we did something shameful."

"I, I'm just checking to see if there are any paparazzi around."

Miao Yuqing explained that in fact, the inner conflict was not for herself, but for Xu Jia and Yang Mi.

In her eyes, Xu Jia has always been an aloof male god, but she didn't expect that he would take the initiative to tuck Sister Mi's collar.

Could it be that these two people broke the window paper.

Miao Yuqing, who was unable to get what she wanted and became the most loyal CP fan of the two, saw this scene as if she was being given candy in public, and it was a dream come true.

"Even if there is, I won't send it randomly. As the company's press officer, you don't know this?"

Xu Jia casually knocked on the latter's forehead. Although he didn't know what the other person was thinking, it was definitely not a good idea.

Then he slowly said: ""The Meg" has opened in 4,118 theaters in North America, second only to "Suicide Squad". It is the second largest opening in the history of August, which shows that Warner still has a certain degree of confidence in this movie. Hopefully, this hot sale proves that the North American movie market does have a strong shark plot, and coupled with the good sales in global regions, I'm afraid it will follow the series."

Although American data show that only about 5 people are killed by sharks every year, from Spielberg's classic "Jaws" to recent "Shark Sea" and "Shark Beach", sharks are, for Western audiences, Always a strong temptation.

These guys are really afraid of sharks.

Moreover, the first weekend box office of this movie was higher than Warner's 2013 summer blockbuster "Pacific Rim". It is not difficult to imagine that with the resourcefulness of these entertainment giants, the sequel plan of "The Meg" is probably unknown. It's already on Kevin's desk.

The only uncertainty is whether Warner will kick out Jiaxing from the sequel plan.

After all, after losing Jiaxing as a Chinese partner, they can look for other Chinese partners.

So much so that the company is willing to take over, even if the benefits are reduced.
