From traffic to movie star

Chapter 254
This Spring Festival, Wei Xun's "Detective Chinatown" led the first-day box office of 1.9 million, and the total box office of 16.2 billion ended perfectly.

From the general public to the media, as well as people in the industry, they all expressed their admiration for Wei Xun's strong ability to attract money.

At the age of 25, with a box office revenue of more than [-] billion yuan, it is no exaggeration to say that he alone can compare to the total box office value of China's film industry for half a year!
It's just so tough, you can't accept it!
Looking at the box office rankings of China's local movies, you will be amazed to find that the first is "Detective Chinatown" with 16.2 billion, the second is "Charlotte Annoyance" with 15.1 billion, the fourth is "Wolf Warrior" with 12.3 billion, and the ninth It is "Chinese Partner" 7.5 million.

"Once Upon a Time" ranked third with 12.4 billion, only 1000 million more than "Wolf Warrior".

As for how the movie's box office came about, anyone who knows the inside story knows it well.

Dominating four of the top ten domestic movie box office revenues, successfully sniped Hollywood imported blockbusters several times, and almost broke the five-year top record of "Blue Man" in China. No wonder some media claimed that Wei Xun could win in China. The field of commercial films is a god.

With such a result, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a god!
Moreover, Wei Xun not only has outstanding directing ability, but also has super-level abilities in all aspects including script writing and acting skills.

Especially this year's Spring Festival "Detective Chinatown", let the public see Wei Xun's superb acting skills, and also made film critics including but not limited to Song Ziwen have great expectations for Wei Xun.

Now that the field of commercial films has made such great achievements, will Wei Xun choose to continue to break through himself in commercial films for the next film, or will he switch to feature films and literary films to win awards?
Here, "Detective Chinatown" has just been released, and before April, the public has already started talking about Wei Xun's new movie.

However, Wei Xun didn't seem to be too anxious, but the low-cost movie "People on the Journey" officially announced before the medal was officially launched. It was directed and acted by Bao Qiang. It was the actor Gao Zheng who chose Sega.

Speaking of which, Xingzhang Media is currently strong enough, but it has been three or four years since the company was founded, but it has never signed a contract with its own actor.

As for the director, Bao Qiang was signed, as well as two newly trained apprentices, Zhang Yu and Zhou Bing.

In the TV department, several TV directors were recruited from the former Dongheng.

This is one of the reasons why the industry pays attention to Xun Xun's films, because Xun Xun has no artists, so as long as Wei Xun's new movie is, he will basically choose to interview and recruit in the circle.

"Brother Xun, I think it's okay to sign a few actors properly. You see, in the past few years, all the actors who have appeared in your movies have become popular in the circle. Zeng Li, Wen Piaopiao, An Shi, which one?" You didn’t jump the career ladder with your movies.”

In the medal media office, Mao Bin suggested: "Let's sign a few more talented actors, those who are down-to-earth and have acting skills, who show their faces in your movies, and train them well in the future. When we make movies again, we won't Always make wedding dresses for others."

At this time, Wei Xun was drawing a storyboard script at his desk.

It has been almost five months since I started writing "Let the Bullets Fly" in December last year. The script has been polished, and the sub-shots are still a little bit unfinished.

This script can be said to be the longest script since Wei Xun made a movie.

"Don't worry about signing an actor."

Hearing Mao Bin's words, Wei Xun said without raising his head: "You will understand in the future. If you are really too busy recently, you can pay more attention to the movements of those companies in the top row of China's richest list."

"Tang Detective" has just been released, and the busiest period has passed. Medal Media is indeed quite leisurely from top to bottom these days.

Mao Bin was processing emails on his mobile phone. Hearing this, he felt a little strange, and said casually: "Pay attention to what they do, the gap between us and others is too far..."

Halfway through his speech, a staff member from the administrative department sent a link to the draft.

After clicking on it, the content in the link is a financial magazine's asset evaluation of Medal Media.

According to the evaluation, in more than three years, the net box office revenue of Medallion Media has been less than one billion. The current Medallion Media, including music, novels, theaters and other industrial chains, has begun to take shape, with a total market value of more than 25 billion.

Especially after the release of "Detective Chinatown", the asset ranking of Medal Media jumped directly from the lower position of China's current eight major film companies to the middle, ranking exactly fourth.

The top three are Dynasty Entertainment, Huaying Media, and Tianguang Media.

"This financial magazine really thinks highly of us, with an estimated asset value of 25 billion, ranking fourth."

After hastily browsing through the draft, Mao Bin shook his head amusedly, and said, "Brother Xun, what do you mean by these asset evaluations? Things like market value also sound good."

Has the medal been evaluated by a financial institution?

Wei Xun, who was immersed in drawing the storyboard script, paused when he heard that the pen in his hand stopped, raised his head and frowned and asked, "Which financial institution made the evaluation?"

Mao Bin was taken aback when he saw that his expression was not right, and quickly replied: "Fenghui Finance, what's wrong, Brother Xun?"

Before Wei Xun could speak, the door of the president's office was knocked open.

The secretary walked in with a pale face, handed over a business card, and said, "Mr. Wei, a Mr. Sun who claims to be an investment bank manager has come to visit and is waiting for you in the reception area."

Hearing the words 'investment bank manager', Mao Bin suddenly raised his head and asked, "Which investment bank manager was appointed?"

Investment banks mean investment banks, which are a type of financial institution corresponding to commercial banks. Whether it is securities issuance, venture capital, investment analysis, or project financing, these are all their jobs.

Of course, investment bank managers are also responsible for corporate restructuring, mergers and acquisitions.

The secretary swallowed and said, "He said he was entrusted by Jutong."

Jutong, the full name of Jutong Technology Holdings.

China's top Internet capital tycoon, this year's ranking of China's richest people by assets, Ren Dong, the boss of Jutong, ranked fifth in China's richest list with assets of 1700 billion yuan.

Jutong Holdings itself is the second largest Internet giant in China and the seventh in the world. This year, the company's estimated market value assets are 900 billion U.S. dollars, which is more than 6000 billion Huaxia coins.

Currently, Dynasty Entertainment, the largest film company in the film industry, only has assets of 600 billion.

Not to mention Medal Media, which has just been evaluated at 25 billion. In front of such a behemoth, there is no possibility of comparison at all.

Mao Bin's expression became frightened.

If the investment bank manager appointed by Jutong comes with the purpose of forcibly buying the medal, the fate of the medal will definitely be the same as that of Dongheng before, with no room for resistance.

Wei Xun took the business card handed over by the secretary, glanced at the name 'Sun Cheng' on it, and let out a sigh of relief: "This is really a giant crocodile, take this Manager Sun to the reception room, I will be there soon .”
