Chapter 423
Baige, in the president’s office.
Makoto Takagi and Akino Kawano sit on one side, and Katsuhiro Ishida, the producer of Yuan Guan, sits on the other side.
Kawano Akino’s assistant Hanada Hana was in charge of helping serve the tea and pour water.
After some greetings, Ishida Katsuhiro took out two file bags and handed them to Akino Kawano and Makoto Takagi. At the same time, he said: “This is the mid- and late-stage publicity plan for “Your Name” formulated by the Yuan Guan. take a look.”
Takagi Makoto didn’t say anything, opened the file bag, took out the files inside, and looked at it silently.
The propaganda on the Yuan Guan side is still different from the propaganda of DOS and Baige, or the field of propaganda is not the same.
Because the fields are different, for Takagi Makoto, just take a look, there is nothing to say.
After reading it, he returned the file to the file bag and immediately asked: “What is the situation with the overseas distribution of the film? How did the talk go?”
“Almost, you think it’s impossible for you to simultaneously release it globally, but we have done our best, and basically all countries and regions that can be discussed have been negotiated. Even if there is no way to release it simultaneously, the release date will not be much different. “Ishida Katsuhiro replied.
“That’s it.” Takagi Makoto felt a little regretful, but he didn’t take it seriously.
It’s really hard to do it globally, and the original version of “Your Name” from another world failed to do it.
Not even the later “Weathered Children”.
Only “Detective Conan: Scarlet Projectile” can be released globally due to the one-year postponement, but Makoto Takagi only knows that there is such a news, and he passed through before it is released, so is there any synchronization later? , He didn’t know.
“President Takagi seems to be very optimistic about the overseas market for the movie “Your Name”?” Ishida Katsuhiro couldn’t help saying suddenly.
Makoto Takagi nodded: “It’s really considered promising, and I even think it has the potential to break the overseas box office record of neon movies.”
After hearing the words, Ishida Katsuhiro froze for a moment, and his expression became a little weird: “President Takagi knows the current overseas box office records of our neon films?”
“knowledge.”
Takagi Makoto replied without hesitation: “The current box office record is 279 million U.S. dollars, created by animation master Yamazaki Gaoming’s “Children of the Sea”.”
Ishida Katsuhiro’s mouth twitched slightly: “It means, do you think the overseas box office of “Your Name” can exceed 279 million US dollars?”
“With this potential, I dare not say that it will definitely be possible.” Takagi Makoto responded.
“All right.”
Ishida Katsuhiro was obviously speechless, but he didn’t argue with Takagi Makoto any more. Instead, he said: “Although “Children of the Sea” was also released by our Yuan Guan, if “Your Name” the animation overseas box office can really exceed “Children of the Sea”, that is a great thing, and I hope it will really surpass it by then.”
This is a bit yin and yang weird, of course Takagi Makoto can hear it.
But he didn’t take it seriously.
In fact, in another world, the overseas box office of “Your Name” reached 281 million U.S. dollars, surpassing Hayao Miyazaki’s “Spirited Away” of 275 million U.S. dollars. It is indeed a broken island movie. Overseas box office records.
In this world, the overseas box office record of island films is 279 million U.S. dollars, which is much higher than the record of another world, but as long as “Your Name” is overseas in this world, the box office performance can be as strong and the same can be achieved. With a box office of 281 million U.S. dollars, it can still break the record.
Of course, it is only possible to break the record. After all, no one knows whether an animated film from another world can still perform so strongly in this world.
Maybe it will not reach 281 million US dollars, so Takagi Makoto only said that it is possible and potential, and he dare not say too much.
Ishida Katsuhiro didn’t believe it, it was normal.
Because even the Toho of another world didn’t take the overseas box office of “Your Name” seriously at the beginning, and I never expected “Your Name” to achieve such a hot overseas results.
…
Ishida Katsuhiro was here to talk about things this time, and after the talk, he got up and said goodbye.
When he left, Akino Kawano couldn’t help but said, “It has the potential to break overseas box office records, are you serious?”
“There is potential, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it can.” Takagi Makoto emphasized again.
“This kind of subject matter may be more accepted in East Asia, right? Europe and the United States would really like it?”
“It can’t be regarded as low acceptance, but it may not be that attractive to them, but I believe that there will still be many people who are willing to watch this animation.”
“Like this?”
“If Miss Ming Nai doesn’t believe it, shall we make a bet?”
“You are so confident?”
“That’s not true. I think there is still a half chance of failing to break the record, but because of this, betting is interesting. If I have 80% confidence, then I won’t bet with you, because it is purely To cheat you, and if I don’t even have 50% confidence, then I will not bet with you, because I don’t want to give it in vain.”
“Um…”
Akino Kawano responded and considered it seriously.
After a while, she asked: “What are you going to bet on?”
“I didn’t think about it, what do Miss Ming Nai think?” Gao Mucheng asked rhetorically.
Kawano Akino thought for a while, and then said: “Why not? If I can break the overseas box office record, I can promise you any request. You can do anything you want me to do, but if you can’t break the overseas box office. Record, then, on the other hand, you have to agree to any request from me, and you must do what I ask you to do.”
“this…”
Takagi Makoto immediately persuaded, “Will this be a bit big?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you divorce, what are you afraid of?” Kawano Akino said half-jokingly.
Takagi Makoto didn’t worry at all: “I’m even more scared when you say that.”
“You made a bet with me.”
Kawano Akino spread his hands, “Anyway, you decide for yourself. Either bet on this or don’t bet. I don’t care.”
Makoto Takagi hesitated, took a look at Akino Kawano, and finally said, “Alright, then gamble once. I believe that even if I lose at that time, Miss Akino will not make a request that embarrass me too much.”
“This hasn’t started yet, are you thinking about losing? It seems that you really don’t have much confidence.”
“It is said that there is only 50% confidence. Whether it can break the record or not depends on the will of God. I am not a true god. How can I be 100% sure about the future?”
“Okay, so be it, I hope it will really break the record by then.”
“Hey, does Miss Ming Nai want to lose by herself?”
“If you can really break the record, you will lose if you lose. It’s not a loss. After all, I’m still one of the investors in this animation.”
“…”
