In the conference room, only the heads of the four major publishing houses were left. The atmosphere inside was very solemn, and the air seemed to freeze.

Cole looked at the photos and information on the table, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said: "No, we can't just sit back and let Xiao Hu come."

Darren immediately agreed and said: "Yes, Xiao must be taught a lesson. Two hundred million dollars, what a joke, he dare to open this mouth."

Louis said: "Then what about these things? If the check cannot be handed over to him before two o'clock in the afternoon, I am worried that he will go to a lawyer immediately. Once it is passed out, we will have a serious crisis of confidence. Such consequences can be. More than 200 million dollars."

Green said, who has not spoken, "This matter has too much influence. I need to ask my boss for instructions."

The other three looked at each other, got up almost at the same time, and took out their mobile phones in unison.

Ten minutes later, the four of them sat together again and said the instructions of their bosses. The results were all one word without exception.

The four of them discussed it, and in the end, Kohl called Xiao Yunhai, and the phone was connected quickly.

"Mr. Xiao, our boss has agreed to your two conditions. Two hundred million dollars is no problem, but the time is too short. We may not be able to raise so much money. Therefore, we hope you can give us two days, the day after tomorrow Before two o'clock in the afternoon, a check for 200 million U.S. dollars must be handed over to you."

When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he frowned and said, "Mr. Cole, are you kidding? It's only 200 million US dollars, and it takes two days to raise money. Hehe, I think you have ulterior motives. Let's listen. , What means are you going to use against me?"

Cole said: "Mr. Xiao, you are misunderstood. We are indeed in difficulties. Two hundred million dollars may not be a big sum for you. Your movie can make several 200 million. But for us to publish As far as the agency is concerned, it’s not the case. It might affect our normal operations. Mr. Xiao, for the sake of our cooperation in the last "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", you can Raise your hand, give us a little time."

Although Cole said poorly, Xiao Yunhai didn't believe a word in his heart. The four prestigious publishing houses in Europe couldn't come up with 200 million US dollars. What an international joke.

However, Xiao Yunhai was unwilling to push too hard, so he said: "I can only give you one day at most. Before two o'clock tomorrow afternoon, I must see 800 million US dollars in my bank card. One cent less, These things will be delivered to the lawyers. Also, I hope you will not give me any tricks, otherwise, it will be more than 200 million US dollars."

After speaking, Xiao Yunhai hung up the phone directly.

Cole's angry face was blue for a while, then white for a while, and finally said viciously: "This Xiao is really disgusting."

Green said: "No way, who will let us be caught by him. Let's find a hotel and wait for the news. I hope the boss can find a way."

The four of them didn't even say hello to Jesse, and left angrily.

Holding a glass of red wine, Jesse stood in front of the window of her office, looking at the four people who were about to get in the car, and mumbled: "These greedy guys are so rude. They don't want to leave without telling their master."

When Xiao Yunhai returned to the villa, he went to his study and played on the computer all afternoon.

I originally thought that I would receive a lot of intercession calls, but I didn't expect that until 6 o'clock in the afternoon, there was no call.

Xiao Yunhai felt a little uneasy in his heart.

He didn't believe that these misergies would honestly hand over 200 million dollars to himself. Since there is no one to intercede, I am afraid it will be hard.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunhai was not afraid, but was a little eager to try.

In his previous life, he was not a peaceful person. After arriving in this world, he learned almost invincible kung fu, and he was fearless in his heart. He even looked forward to them coming, so he could show his skills.

Before, he and Kerry and Jesse had arranged to have dinner together in the evening. Seeing that the time was almost up, Xiao Yunhai put on his clothes and drove to the agreed French restaurant.

Kerry and Jesse seemed to have just arrived, and were negotiating with the service staff with the menu.

Xiao Yunhai walked over and said with a smile: "Hey, Kerry, we haven't seen you for a long time. What have you been up to lately?"

Kerry handed the menu to the waiter, told him to serve three cups of coffee, and then said to Xiao Yunhai: "I spent more than two months in the crew of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. You know, this movie Now it’s our MGM’s cornucopia, I don’t dare to be sloppy."

Xiao Yunhai sat down and said with a smile: "That's right."

Kerry sighed and said, "Xiao, you Huaxia are really confusing."

Xiao Yunhai asked puzzledly: "What do you mean by this? I didn't understand."

Kerry said with a gloomy look: "Don't mention it, our MGM movie's box office in China last month was terrible. The messy sci-fi movie that went viral in the past two months, last month, suddenly encountered Waterloo. The big investment of US$600 million in Huaxia turned out to only get a box office of 800 million Chinese currency. Oh my God, when I saw the report, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I don’t understand, why is this?"

When Xiao Yunhai was shooting the crazy series of movies, MGM's science fiction blockbuster "Alien Relics" landed on the global theaters, but unfortunately it only got 1.4 billion US dollars at the box office, which was a mess.

Not only MGM, but the box office of other Hollywood companies are not much better. Especially for China, the decline was the most serious.

Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Kerry, how long did it take to shoot your "Alien Relics" from the beginning to the final completion?"

Kerry was taken aback, thought for a moment, and said, "Almost five months or so."

"What about the original "Dinosaur Wars" and "Interstellar"?"

"It took two years for "Dinosaur Wars", and one and a half years for "Interstellar". Do you mean that we were too eager for quick success and quick profit and didn't make a movie seriously?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Isn't it? Although I haven't watched this movie~www.wuxiaspot.com~, I dare to say that "Alien Relics" is definitely not as detailed as "Traveling Interstellar", right?"

Kerry nodded and said, "I admit this. Although your magic special effects company has improved its work efficiency a lot, it is true that you have completed a major production of more than 70% of a special effects lens in five months. Somewhat hastily."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Of course, this is only a secondary reason. The real main reason is that the Chinese fans have been a little tired of the aesthetics of movies like you. Since the beginning of the year, your Hollywood aggressively attacked the Chinese movie world, what action movies, science fiction films All the magical films have entered the theater in a swarm. Kerry, China has a saying that it is too late. If you are a fan, let you watch a few or even a dozen of the same type of movies in half a year, you may not be able to stand it. ."

"Let's put it this way, you have overdrawn the box office potential of Hollywood movies in order to collect money. Unless you can make innovations or show the same type of movies every other time, the results will be the same."
