Chapter 126 Are you willing to play with me?
Seeing that Qi Wei had an investment intention, Li Shaohong immediately took out another stack of bound documents from his bag and handed it to Qi Wei.

When Qi Wei opened the file and was about to flip through it quickly, Li Shaohong explained: "This is the project plan for "Daming Palace Ci", which contains very detailed expenditure details. We will strive for excellence in this drama, and we will be very sophisticated in production. Therefore, the cost is relatively high, and an investment of about 2200 million is required.
You are an insider, and you have filmed a few movies, so you should be able to understand that even if we strictly control the cost, it is difficult to avoid overspending, so the cost of the movie "Daming Palace Ci" will most likely exceed 2500 million. "

What Li Shaohong said was quite sincere.

But Qi Wei knew it well, she just listened to what she said and the project proposal in her hand.

Compared with modern dramas, costume dramas generally cost more. One of the important reasons is that there are not too many operable places in costume dramas.

Especially for more "exquisite" dramas, it is difficult for you to figure out how much money is spent on expert consultation fees and Fuhuadao.

Of course, at this time, it is not as blatant as in later generations.

For some dramas in later generations, when you look at the production, it doesn’t match the investment. Even if there are traffic stars participating in the show and getting a sky-high salary, you can’t tell how much money was spent on the rest of the service. The appearance of a billion.

The film and television company Rongxinda co-founded by Li Shaohong and a few friends has not been established for a few years, and there are few film and television works. It is time to build a reputation.

At this time, you have to pay attention to food appearance, and most of the money raised from investment will definitely be spent on film and television production, so as not to make it too ugly.

In terms of the quality of the drama "Daming Palace Ci" in later generations, the money is still spent on real things.

Even if they can make a fortune from the production of "Daming Palace Ci", the investment in this drama can still be made.

Qi Wei nodded, and asked again: "How much investment has been raised in this drama, and how much gap is there?"

Li Shaohong replied: "I have some friends at CCTV. This drama will cooperate with CCTV. They have invested several million. My idea is that this drama will attract at least 2500 million investment. At present, there are still about 1000 million. There is a gap of about [-]."

With a shortfall of 1000 million, it is almost enough to make a "Never Rest In My Eyes".

Seeing Qi Wei fell silent, Li Shaohong said again: "You don't need to take over the 1000 million shortfall, you just invest a few million at will."

Investing a few million casually is easy to say.

In the current market situation, it is not easy for film and television dramas to pull in millions.

No matter how many people begged their grandparents to sue their grandma, they could not get this investment.

But it is estimated that they also read the news and knew that Qi Wei was worth nearly [-] million yuan, so the few million yuan seemed insignificant in comparison.

Qi Wei must be able to come up with the money.

This is also the case, which is why they turned to Qi Wei for investment.

"Director Li, how much do you want me to invest in this drama?"

Li Shaohong stretched out five fingers towards Qi Wei, and said with a smile, "Five million is enough, and I can find a solution for the remaining gap."

For Li Shaohong, the more investment from Qi Wei, the better.

It took Qi Wei less than two years to achieve what he is today, and the speed of growth is jaw-dropping. This is not something that can be achieved by luck and talent alone.

Even with the support of noble people, not everyone can easily achieve such success.

During the brief "confrontation" with Qi Wei, Li Shaohong could clearly feel that Qi Wei was more mature and shrewd than he imagined.

If Qi Wei is more aggressive, it is more dangerous to cooperate with this kind of person, especially if Qi Wei is still a knowledgeable insider and has established his own film and television company.

If Qi Wei invests 1000 million to make up for this gap, then Qi Wei will become the largest investor in this drama, and the investment share will far exceed other people. In this drama, Qi Wei will have almost absolute right to speak, There may even be a situation where the guest usurps the host's role.

This is not what Li Shaohong wants to see.

Even in the absence of investment, as long as it is not a last resort, the pull investment will not choose to put all eggs in one basket.

Find multiple investors, and keep the balance between one faction and the other so that the power will not be left behind.

This is not only true in the film and television industry, but also in other industries.

Of course, except for those coal bosses who are rich and powerful in later generations who only care about investment and don't care about business.

Seeing that Qi Wei frowned, it is possible that he felt like a lion had opened his mouth, and Li Shaohong quickly said: "You can invest three or four million yuan..."

"I can vote for the 500 million." Qi Wei said after thinking about it.

Li Shaohong's concerns are actually superfluous to Qi Wei.

Although Qi Wei Film and Television Company has been established for nearly a year, but the team is not particularly mature, Qi Wei will not have any idea of ​​overpowering others at all.

The women's group portrait drama "Daming Palace Ci" is also suitable for a more delicate female director like Li Shaohong to shoot.

Even if Li Shaohong wanted Qi Wei to invest 1000 million, Qi Wei would not invest.

Even the 500 million that he promised to invest, Qi Wei was not prepared to use his own money.

According to the trajectory of later generations, the drama "Daming Palace Ci" will indeed explode, and will achieve very good ratings. It will be a double harvest of word-of-mouth ratings, and there is a high probability that investment will make money.

Yes, some earn but certainly not much.

This drama has CCTV's investment, and it will be broadcast on CCTV without accident.

At this time, CCTV has a wide audience, and the ratings of the dramas broadcast are guaranteed. Many dramas are rushing to be broadcast on CCTV. Under such circumstances, it is impossible to spend a lot of money to buy the first broadcast rights.

Coupled with the high investment of this drama, the return on investment is actually not good.

It's not as high as the return on investment of the idol drama Qi Wei wants to play.

In addition to this investment repayment cycle, not to mention the long production cycle, it will take a year for remittances after the broadcast.

That's not exactly a laudable deal.

So Qi Wei didn't plan to spend his own money.

Qi Wei helped Boss Wu make a fortune in the financial crisis. Boss Wu once promised to invest in the project of Qi Wei Film and Television Company, and even promised to introduce his rich friends to Qi Wei.

It is very easy for Qi Weila to invest now.

Although the return on investment of "Daming Palace Ci" project is not high, it is still a profitable project in general, and this is not considered to be cheating them.

Let them make a little money, and make themselves and the film and television company famous in the circle.

It's easy to talk about investing in yourself, and more potential projects will come to you by then.

This is a wave of three wins.

As soon as he made an investment commitment, Qi Wei immediately said: "500 million investment is not a small amount. I am not doing a good deed by making this investment. Leaving aside the return, I can accept it even if I lose money in the future, but I hope that my investment will be successful." Obtain the corresponding rights, you can understand this, Director Li."

"I can understand, this can be discussed in detail."

"Another point, my film and television company also has artists, and some of them are quite suitable for some roles in this film. Don't worry, I know how to measure it."

"I understand what you mean. After the film is officially approved and casts begin, you can ask them to come and audition."

It's not normal for investors to stuff a few artists, Qi Wei's request is not too much.

It is necessary to let the woman who establishes a "friendship" with herself get more rewards than she pays.

Leave a good reputation in the circle, so that more women will fall in their arms in the future.

But as more and more women establish "friendship", the "friendship" is getting deeper and deeper, and the large-scale preparation of film and television projects by their own film and television company will have to wait until at least next year. Finding resources for these women has already begun to cause Qi Wei a headache thing.

The appearance of "Daming Palace Ci" is like timely rain to Qi Wei.

After all, this is a women's group portrait show, and several women who have had "friendship" can be arranged to enter.

Moreover, the director of this play, Li Shaohong, has not lost her reputation at this time. She is a well-known director in China. Even if it is a supporting role, there are still people who are willing to participate in her play.

If you can't play the leading role, no one will complain.

When Qi Wei was thinking about who to arrange, Li Shaohong winked at Chen Hong. Chen Hong understood, smiled and asked Qi Wei:
"Qi Wei, would you like to play with me?"
