Chapter 1721: Chapter 837: Deal_3

Zhou Yun is currently at the party scene.

She thought about it carefully and sent this message to Ning Yao: What do you think?

Ning Yao said: So many people want to buy it?

She seemingly hadn’t expected so many distributors would want to buy "Treasure".

Zhou Yun said: The version after the director’s re-editing is great, better than I expected.

Ning Yao: I also didn’t expect that he would re-edit the movie like this, I’m so surprised.

Zhou Yun: From a once-and-for-all perspective, selling the entire overseas distribution to Steve directly for $8 million is the simplest and most hassle-free way. Plus the revenue from selling it domestically to TV stations and video platforms, you could earn around $10 million, so you won’t be losing money.

Ning Yao: !!!

Zhou Yun: Also, I will suggest re-releasing it domestically. I think this re-edited version of the movie will be liked by more people.

Ning Yao said: The company said with a re-release, it’s likely the final box office won’t cover the marketing costs.

Zhou Yun said: First let them look at the re-edited version of "Treasure", see the movie first. The re-edited version is nearly twenty minutes shorter than the previous version, not as long, and the narrative is clearer. It lowers the viewing threshold for the audience, and I think it will attract many who haven’t seen the movie before.

Ning Yao: Then I’ll talk to the company again. Xiao Yun, I really appreciate it! I didn’t expect "Treasure" to actually be sold.

Zhou Yun said: I’m not surprised it could be sold, it’s just hard to say the transaction price. Any finished film can be sold in some way. I’m not particularly satisfied with the prices offered by these people, but it seems this might be the best we can do. As long as it can eventually cover your costs and help you profit, that’s fine.

Ning Yao: That’s more than fine!

Zhou Yun: I don’t plan to sell the distribution in Hong Kong and Taiwan. I intend to keep it, later I’ll run around and ask some familiar contacts. Besides, I don’t plan to package sell it to the two countries in Japan and South Korea. With Longjie, I only plan to sell Japan’s distribution. The price might be halved, but I think after your starring "Mortal Realm" is released in Korea, we can negotiate for this film at a higher price. With Steve, we should talk to see if we can negotiate a revenue share instead of an outright sale. We shouldn’t sell the global distribution to him.

Ning Yao: I’m not familiar with these matters; you make the decisions. Wen Ju and I will definitely follow your lead.

Zhou Yun: Alright, in short, there’s no need to worry about losing money anymore, we’re sure to earn. Also, if he faces any pressure in raising funds for a new project, he can come to me, I’m willing to support part of it.

Ning Yao: I’ll immediately tell him this good news!

After finishing the chat with Ning Yao, Zhou Yun called Zhou Lan and shared her thoughts.

Zhou Lan said she would continue to negotiate.

This news lifted Zhou Yun’s spirits.

Honestly, she certainly had worried that the movie wouldn’t sell or overseas distributors wouldn’t be interested.

Zhou Yun was smiling, when suddenly she noticed Li ZhenTai.

Several people were around that man, chatting with a blond, blue-eyed foreigner, engaging in a lively conversation, seemingly getting along well.

Zhou Yun impatiently looked away and walked in another direction.

She really doesn’t want to deal with people like Li ZhenTai anymore.

Trash.

But seeing Li ZhenTai reminded Zhou Yun of that Korean actress who was bullied yesterday.

Song Zhi.

She wonders how Song Zhi is doing now.

Zhou Yun met with Kim Bingde again.

He was chatting with Director Yu Zhihe.

Seeing them together, Zhou Yun immediately brushed aside all thoughts in her mind and happily went over to greet them.

"Hi."

Yu Zhihe and Kim Bingde saw Zhou Yun and greeted her warmly with hugs.

Zhou Yun said: "What are you two talking about? I’m really curious, what do directors talk about when they gather?"

She asked with a bright smile.

Kim Bingde laughed twice and said: "Everything, movies, literature, and some gossip, we talk about everything."

Zhou Yun said: "Director Yu Zhihe must be quite tired these days, right? Watching lots of films."

Yu Zhihe nodded.

"Indeed."
