MTL - Rebirth Starts From 2006-Chapter 844 that's good

Just now Liu Hongbo said,

He said that Jiang Wen's play does not lack investment, but there may be some problems in financing.

This is true, but also incorrect.

It's not true, because in the impression of ordinary audiences, a play by a big star and director like Jiang Wen will definitely not lack investors, the difference is only a matter of how many votes.

However, the reality is not the same as everyone imagined.

Jiang Wen's own movie, the first "Sunshine", dared to burn more than 1.6 million U.S. dollars in 1994, and it was almost 50 million yuan at the global box office. Investors shouted blood loss, In fact, he should have earned a little bit, plus the word-of-mouth and awards won by this film made Jiang Wen very popular in the film circle.

After all, if they can get so many awards without losing money, even a film company would be happy.

So when he was filming the second movie Devil, he easily got more than 20 million investment from Yinghuang and Huayi,

As a result, needless to say, it couldn't even be released, and the overseas box office did well, which directly made investors lose everything.

That's fine, if you don't make money, you can earn word-of-mouth, but after traveling around in several countries, you don't get any big prizes, and you only get some leftovers for small prizes.

So much so that the sun is still rising in the third part, well, those old friends and investors, such as Huayi and Yinghuang, dare not invest anymore, and he still puts in the money himself, and in the end Yinghuang yelled at losing money Mentality, supported by an investment to be released,

In this way, the box office was still not satisfactory, causing both Yinghuang and himself to lose a lot of money.

At this time, Jiang Wen himself seems to have entered a bottleneck period in his career, and several of the director's works have received mediocre responses.

In this case, it would be a ghost if he could still find investment.

Great directors are also worried about raising investment!

However, from another perspective, Liu Hongbo's words are also correct.

Because, later on, he really found an investor,

That is Ma Ke, who opened a film company in 2002 and wanted to cooperate with a big director, but no one liked him.

Ma Ke has a mine at home, and playing movies is a hobby. Of course, it is not ruled out that he wants to earn some money.

In the eyes of outsiders, making movies is a particularly lucrative business. As long as you get together big directors and big stars, and make up a passable story, the audience will wave banknotes and clamor to see it, and the money will come in quickly. pocket,

So since he opened this film company, Ma Ke has always wanted to establish a relationship with a big director. With a big director, there will be a big star. If he makes a big movie, the film company will gain a firm foothold in the industry. The next thing is just a matter of course.

It's a pity that there is no shortage of great directors to invest in. Only one Jiang Wen is at the bottom of the valley, so he finds an opportunity to start a friendship.

As for Jiang Wen, while tinkering with the script at home, he was busy filming. After the sun rose as usual and he lost money, he could no longer find anyone to take advantage of.

So they hit it off with Ma Ke, and the two established a joint venture company. They contribute their talents and the other contributes funds, and each takes half of the shares, which can be regarded as a spare tire for themselves.

But Ma Ke is not a fool, if it is only a few million small money, in order to please the big director, he will vote, if he loses, he will throw it into the water, at least he heard the sound, it can be regarded as his ticket to enter the film and television industry,

But Jiang Wen's filming, tsk tsk, who doesn't know that it is a money-burning machine, other directors filming, the ratio of film to film is 1:3 to 1:5, and when he shoots sunshine, it reaches 1:10 Five, five times that of others,

Later, it burned more and more!

Cooperating with this kind of director is a bottomless pit. Tens of millions are not enough for him to make. If he is allowed to vote alone, and it cannot be screened in the end, then the family has a mine and cannot support it.

Financing is a must!

And then back to the original point, who will invest in him? !

so,

What Liu Hongbo said was right again,

Jiang Wen's play does not lack investment, but financing is a big problem.

But in Boss Chen's view, the current situation is an opportunity for Damai Culture.

Looking back, it seems that Jiang Wen's real money-making movie is "Let the Bullets Fly", right? !

At least the later "One Step Away" lost more than 100 million,

Tsk tsk, this is a scam!

Chen Yang squinted his eyes and recalled a wave, then looked at Liu Hongbo, and asked, "If we make a circle, is there a chance?"

Since no one else dares to earn this money, let him earn it.

It's hard to find such a movie that earns both money and word of mouth, and can be praised by the audience as a classic.

Damai Culture has a "Latent" in the TV series, and it should also have a masterpiece in the movie. It just happened that this drama hit the gunpoint, and he felt a little embarrassed not to accept it.

And Liu Hongbo couldn't help being stunned when he heard Boss Chen's words,

From the bottom of his heart, he is also inclined to invest in Jiang Wen's film, but if Jiang Wen does not change his mind and makes the same mistakes as before, he can bear the responsibility for the investment failure, but he cannot afford factors other than the film joint liability arising from

Just like that Devil, even the producer, China Film Co-production Company, was killed.

He can't bear this responsibility.

That's why I took advantage of Boss Chen's visit today and asked him to make a decision.

Unexpectedly, Boss Chen is not only rich and powerful, but also courageous. He seems to have never considered off-site factors, and even wants to round up the investment.

Thinking of this, Liu Hongbo couldn't help deliberating for two seconds before speaking,

"Chen Dong, for this film, what I consider is not only the investment, but also the approval level.

If Jiang Wen has the same problems as last time, and we are only one of the producers, it has nothing to do with us. At most, we will be criticized.

But if we are the only main producer, I am worried that the films we submit for review may be treated differently in the future! "

Chen Yang was slightly taken aback, he really hadn't thought about this question,

Although because of the big entertainment platform, the leaders have specially greeted the relevant departments, so that the relationship between Damai Culture and them is not bad,

But if you get carried away with it, who knows what the heads of these departments will think.

When reviewing this thing, as long as the red line is not touched, it is subjective consciousness that plays a decisive role.

Those leaders of the Brick House with scissors in their hands, you are pleasing to the eye, you can not cut them with a knife, but if they provoke stabs, you really can't do anything with them,

You can't ask the leader every time, can you? !

Of course, there is no big problem with this movie. Not only was it successfully released in the end, but it also got a box office of one billion yuan. It can be said to be a huge profit, but others don't know,

What if he arbitrarily supports Jiang Wen, and Jiang Wen is grateful to Dade when he turns back, and he wants to drag him to invest in "One Step Away"?

So different situations require different approaches.

Thinking of this, Chen Yang nodded silently, turned to look at Liu Hongbo, and asked, "Then what's your opinion?"

At critical moments, it is definitely right to listen to professionals more.

Liu Hongbo pondered for two seconds, looked at him and said, "Chen Dong, if you think this project can be invested, and there is no limit on the investment amount, then I have a suggestion,

Tomorrow I will go to China Film Group to try to recruit them, and then we and China Film Group will take the lead, including Jiang Wen's own company, and then randomly recruit two companies to make up five investors.

I think Jiang Wen's old friends Hua Yi and Ying Huang are good.

If we ask them to invest a small amount of one or two million dollars under the premise that we are responsible for solving most of the funds, they will definitely not refuse.

In this way, it becomes a project jointly produced by China Film and us, and other companies participate in the investment.

The effect of the film is good, if it wins awards and makes money, then we, as the largest investor and producer, will undoubtedly earn the most money, and this film can also become one of our signatures.

If the box office is not as good as Jiang Wen's previous projects, even if it loses, there will be partners to share the risk.

It was even banned like his play. The board on it was knocked down, and there was China Film in front of it. I will clear it up and go to the leader to explain it. I will talk about the loss and sell it badly. After I express my position, there will be more Note that this matter is over with the regulatory authorities.

How do you like this? "

"Um,"

Chen Yang smiled and nodded, "I think this is pretty good."

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of light laughter in the room.

Chen Yang leaned on the back of the chair, patted his thigh, let out a long breath, looked at Liu Hongbo and Xia Yumeng, and said with a smile, "Professional matters should be left to professional people. Damai Culture has you two, I am very relieved, and I am looking forward to the day when the barley culture becomes the industry benchmark."

Liu Hongbo looked at Xia Yumeng, turned around and said with a smile, "Chen Dong is giving us assessment indicators!"

Xia Yumeng covered his forehead pretending to have a headache, "Being a benchmark in the industry? That will make me worry to death!"

After making a little joke, Boss Chen was about to leave.

Liu Hongbo and Xia Yumeng stood up to see each other off, and then asked, "Chen Dong, what kind of business are you planning to handle when you come to Beijin this time?"

Xia Yumeng also smiled and said, "I heard Mr. Huang said that you will enter the entertainment circle this year and see for yourself. If you have any big projects, don't forget about us."

"Humph,"

Chen Yang smiled and said as he walked, "My big project is you. If you make the company a success for me, my project will be completed."

"No way?"

Xia Yumeng pretended to be surprised and said, "Then, why did you enter the entertainment industry? Acting?"

"If you don't know how to act, you can only be a director or producer,"

Chen Yang said with a smile, "I plan to go to CCTV and Beijing Film Studio for two months to learn how to make variety shows and movies, and then go around and have a look around and do some small projects."

"what?"

Hearing this, Xia Yumeng was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at Liu Hongbo, only to see that old Liu also had a dull face,

You big boss, do you really plan to change careers and become a big director?

But how could the director be so good at it?

Script material selection, role setting, scenery props, actors' performances, filming and editing, and the final post-production publicity and broadcasting, each of these links requires the director's meticulous control and participation.

You went to CCTV and Beijing Film Academy to study for two months, and you want to be a director yourself?

Ha ha,

Liu Hongbo and Xia Yumeng looked at each other, both thought Mr. Huang was too serious before,

From their point of view, Boss Chen's visit to the entertainment industry is really just for fun.

Otherwise, the boss should give full play to his own advantages, like managing a project, he will be the project leader himself, and then choose the investment target, and then choose the roles of director, producer, actor, etc., and do it in the way he is good at ,

Instead of studying casually for two months like now, and then running to become a producer and director,

What a joke!

However, he is the boss. Anyway, he has strong financial resources and rich resources. Even Jiang Wen's kind of fake movies want to be a sole proprietorship.

Now I'm just thinking about being a director. Is there any problem? !

Thinking of this, Liu Hongbo immediately changed his face, and said with a smile, "Then I will take a good look at your masterpiece later."

After a pause, he continued, "If there is anything that needs our cooperation, you have to speak in advance, otherwise I'm worried that the schedule will not be adjusted and it will be difficult to arrange."

He said that on purpose to show that he took it seriously.

Otherwise what can I say?

Do you have something to say?

That's not nonsense, even the company is owned by others, so it's just a matter of saying what to do.

Chen Yang walked down the stairs, looked back at him, then looked at Xia Yumeng, and said with a smile, "Since you all said that, then I will tell you in advance."

Liu Hongbo and Xia Yumeng looked at each other again,

Is there really something for them to cooperate with?

Chen Yang said with a smile, "At the end of March and the beginning of April, I will go to Xinzang. I thought I would tell you when I thought about it. Since you want to adjust the schedule in advance, you can reserve a film crew for me. It’s too complicated, just like when shooting Jackson’s variety show.

in addition,"

He looked at Xia Yumeng again, and said, "Look back and look at our company, including Damai Music, which artists are available, and follow me."

Um?

Want an artist?

Xia Yumeng blinked and asked, "How long will it take?"

"Words of time,"

Chen Yang raised his head and thought for a while, "About a month or so."

"Uh,"

Xia Yumeng pondered for two seconds, then said after deliberation, "Chen Dong, if I understand correctly, your filming should be a variety show, right?"

Chen Yang raised his brows and said with a smile, "Not necessarily, if I have a sudden inspiration, maybe I will make a short film or even a movie."

Uh…,

Xia Yumeng was speechless for a moment~www.novelbuddy.com~Chen Yang laughed, looked at the two of them and said, "I understand what you mean, artists are one of the company's most core resources after all, and if they take up too long, they will definitely hurt you." impact on other projects,

But it’s okay, my place is different from filming, you can come and go as you please, you don’t force yourself, you can go whenever you want, and you can leave after filming, it doesn’t affect you at all.

If there is a time to make a film, it is easy, "

Chen Yang grinned and said, "Whoever I like, or whichever you think is suitable, just transfer him here temporarily, and besides our own company, other companies may also use it.

so,"

He looked at Xia Yumeng and said with a smile, "I will trouble you to connect with them then,

Of course, it's still the same sentence, don't force it, we can change people if there is really no time. "

Xia Yumeng took a deep breath, grinned and said, "Understood."

That being said, she dared to pat her chest to assure that if Boss Chen really wanted to pull an artist over, no one would refuse him.

As for the end of March and the beginning of April,

It's early February, and it seems that Boss Chen is going to go to Xinzang after finishing his studies.

Based on Boss Chen's fantastic ideas, the small projects he mentioned, even if they are really small, are worth looking forward to.
