    The actress's sister had reached this point, and Xiao Qi naturally understood that she wanted to meet and discuss with Cameron by herself.

    "Actually, I don't care about the performance of AMC in the United States. I prefer to run our Kiwi Cinema Line in China properly." Qiao Guoer said, "Husband, please take my place and go discuss with Cameron. Let's see.  Can we increase the box office share ratio here, and then create an atmosphere in our 3D and IMAX theaters so that we don¡¯t always lose money!¡±

    When she said this, Qiao Guoer¡¯s mouth was curled up, obviously she was still very concerned about the losses of the Kiwi Cinema Line.

    " This matter is not actually Qiao Guo'er's fault. If it were according to her wishes, the pace of building cinemas, especially opening 3D and IMAX cinemas, would not be so big at all. She would prefer to take it slow.

    ¡°But Xiao Qi knows how hot the film industry will be in the future. Wherever it will come slowly, it will definitely be fully rolled out.

    The current movie market in China is not as fast as it was after 2010. Therefore, the attendance rate of many cinemas, especially the 3D and IMAX cinemas with high ticket prices, has not been high, and temporary losses must exist.

    Of course, Xiao Qi also provided enough money to deal with losses. Billions of RMB were placed in Qiao Guoer's company account to slowly make up for the losses.

    But losing money will make the actress sister unhappy.

    ¡Ó¡Ó, ¨Œ.¡Þ¡øt Especially after buying AMC, it quickly entered a profit model after simple decoration and adding updated equipment. This made Qiao Guoer even more depressed about the domestic Kiwi cinema chain.  Incessantly.

    Nowadays, it is rare for a director like Cameron to shoot a 3D movie "Avatar" that is said to have shocking effects, so Qiao Guoer naturally came up with the idea of ??"Avatar".

    "Oh, how do you know that "Avatar" will definitely make money?" Xiao Qi asked Qiao Guo'er in surprise.

    You know, Cameron has been appearing frequently in front of the media since the beginning of this year.  He is vigorously promoting the high-quality 3D movie "Avatar" that he has been working on for ten years.

    But many people have doubts. They feel that there are no 3D movies in Hollywood in recent years, and the effect is just like this. How can it be said to be so beautiful that people will be addicted to it after watching it?

    The most popular director in recent years is Bombshell, Sam Raimi.  Is it Gore Verbinskiwait a minute, Cameron has not been exposed to the market for so many years, does he still have such a keen sense of touch and such strong box office ability?

    ¡°Don¡¯t doubt it, this is how they smeared and belittled Cameron, because Cameron¡¯s bad temper made the relationship between him and the media not good.

    It¡¯s a rare opportunity to step on his feet now, so these media naturally flocked to him.

    Under such circumstances, many Chinese movie fans feel that they are not optimistic about "Avatar".  Why is the movie queen sister so optimistic about it?

    Qiao Guoer smiled brightly after hearing this, "Idiot husband, who is Cameron? He has always been a director of commercial films! Look at every movie he made before, they all have their own distinctive characteristics! Although now he has changed  It has become a 3D model, but the connotation of the movie is still there, so I don¡¯t believe he will fail this time.¡±

    Xiao Qi smiled and said, "You are very confident."

    "If I don't have confidence, I have no choice. My position is destined to support Cameron." Qiao Guoer said with her beautiful eyes rolling: "I am the theater owner who has invested the most in 3D and IMAX screens in China, and I am also the owner of everyone.  A theater owner who has a lot of money in his eyes. If Cameron's "Avatar" succeeds, I will immediately become the most visionary and visionary theater owner."

    "They will regret their short-sightedness one day." Xiao Qi patted his wife's butt and said sternly.

    Because of owning imax company and becoming one of the owners of 3D technology, Qiao Guoer has been continuously promoting these two models of movie screens in China in the past two years.

    But the screens of these two technologies are too expensive, and subsequent upgrades and maintenance are not cheap either. They are far less cheap and worry-free than 2D screens.  Therefore, in the cinema lines across the country, in addition to the dozen cinemas of Baoyu Group, which have 3D and IMAX screens, the other 3D and IMAX screens add up to less than a hundred.

    It seems to be the same in the past life.

    The result was during the global release of "Avatar".  Any cinema with 3D, IMAX, or 3D plus IMAX screens would have people queuing up from morning to night, and it even made news on major TV stations.

    Although the attendance rate of those cinemas with only 2D is good, it is far from exaggerated.

    Not to mention the ticket prices and profits of several types of screen-screened movies, the difference is more than a little bit different.

    That is, from this "Avatar""After that, China's 3D, IMAX, 3D plus IMAX screens continued to increase, and finally became the second largest theater group with the latest projection technology after the United States.

    "I have never doubted this." Qiao Guoer also said seriously, "People who have never been to see a 3D plus IMAX screen don't know how much enjoyment it is to watch a movie in this environment. Cameron  If "Avatar" can be as good as he claims, movies with 3D technology will become mainstream in the future!

    Besides, isn¡¯t Taylor¡¯s Marvel company also using 3D technology to shoot comic hero stunt movies?  Such a big movie is also supported by special effects, so naturally it needs better viewing effects.  With "Avatar" and these special effects movies taking the lead, is it still far away when they shoot 3D blockbusters on a large scale?  "

    "Honey, I think you are underestimating your talent to be the president of a film and television group." Xiao Qi held up her cheek, kissed her and said, "With your ability, you are more than enough to be my full-time secretary."  ah!"

    ¡°Screw you, I¡¯m a good CEO, why am I here to serve you?¡± Qiao Guoer kissed her man back, but she didn¡¯t show weakness.

    Most of the girls in Shuchuan have a bit of a little pepper attitude, and Qiao Guoer is no exception.

    Although they can¡¯t touch her with the sword yet, this does not prevent Xiao Qi and Qiao Guoer from having a passionate kiss, which made both of them a little emotional, and then reluctantly separated.

    ¡­¡­

    At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Qi met the famous James Cameron in a coffee shop of the Capital Hotel.

    With him is a middle-aged man, his partner Vince Pace, who is also the cinematographer and technical director of "Avatar".

    In fact, in the previous life, the 3D technology company of the two of them would not be renamed Cameron Pace Group until "Avatar" became popular all over the world, but in this life it has already been named that way.

    James Cameron is the chairman of the board of directors of Cameron Pace Group, and Vince Pace is CEO. The 3D and special effects teams under them are the backbone of Cameron Pace Group.

    Before Xiao Jiawei and Xiao Qi came in, they had informed James Cameron that Xiao Qi, the husband of Qiao Guoer, chairman of the Kiwi Film and Television Group, would be attending the meeting today.

    Cameron didn't think about why Xiao Qi was already Qiao Guoer's husband before he reached the required marriage age in China, nor did he think about the widespread rumors in the United States that Tang Mingxiang, the chairman of Mingxiang Venture Capital, was also Xiao Qi's wife.  Rumor has it that he only focuses on areas related to his business.

    Even though Xiao Qi is the richest man in the world, Cameron just shook hands with Xiao Qi when he came in.

    Vince Pace was much more polite and even said a few more polite words.

    Different from the unruly big beard that everyone remembers, James Cameron, who is now 55 years old, has a head of white hair, and the edges of his face have become very soft, just like an ordinary kind white-haired man.  Just like the old man with white beard.

    Of course Xiao Qi knows that this is just James Cameron's appearance. When on the set, he is still the tyrant on the set who controls everything.

    "Mr. Xiao, we should have met when the shares were transferred last time, but you were busy with work at that time, so we didn't bother you." Vince Pace started politely.

    Xiao Qi felt a little sweaty. At that time, he was not busy with work, but his two wives in the United States had given birth one after another, so he was naturally very busy.

    "Haha, I'm sorry, Mr. Pace, but it's not too late now!" Xiao Qi said, "It's rare for you to come to China. Take a good rest these days, see the historical monuments of China, and then see  The size and specific configuration of our Kiwi Cinema line helps us think about what else can be improved!¡±

    "good!"

    James Cameron spoke, "I am very interested in the Kiwi Cinema Line. I heard that there is actually a theater chain in China with more than 500 3D, IMAX, 3D plus IMAX screens. I  I¡¯ve always wanted to come over and see how it¡¯s doing, isn¡¯t it a good profit?¡±

    "Well, before many excellent 3D movies came out, naturally not many people were willing to spend two or three times the price to watch the special effects screen." Xiao Qi said naturally, "But if you don't do it because you are afraid of these,  If we make the layout in advance, we won¡¯t be able to stay one step ahead. 3D technology and IMAX technology will definitely be the mainstream of movies in the future. My wife and I are convinced of this!¡±

    "Haha, that's true, but it takes a super rich man like you, Mr. Xiao, to have the confidence to lose money for two or three years without panicking!" James Cameron laughed.

    It can be seen that he appreciates Xiao Qi's character very much.?? way.

    For a famous director like him who values ??technology above all else, there is no collaborator more suitable than this.  (To be continued)
