Lost eight hundred million at the beginning

Chapter 277 Chapter 277 Extra Story: Movies and Space Elevators

Feng Qiang was found to have three highs in the latest physical examination, and he turned down a lot of social gatherings. He began to pay attention to health preservation, soaked goji berries in the thermos he brought with him when he went out, and walked [-] steps every day to go to bed early and get up late.

He sat next to Chen Jun when the group's senior management had dinner.

Chen Jun is currently the general manager of the overseas department of Lin's Real Estate. After marriage, he has matured a lot. The most obvious thing is that he has gained a lot of weight and his hair is getting thinner.However, his good body, which he has practiced for many years, has allowed him to find no problems in physical examinations this year, and he is in good health and delicious.

I heard that Chen Jun spends more than 360 days a year, 300 days a year, and spends less time with his wife Hua Mengmeng. The relationship between the two is surprisingly stable. When you are pregnant, you can't help but feel emotional.

"Old Feng, are you still picking a wife?" Chen Jun waited to hold the baby, and couldn't help making a joke when he saw the single dog.

Feng Qiang replied with a smile: "Oh, blame me for not being as courageous as you back then. The company is all elites, how can I dare to chase after you? Now that I am old and in poor health, no one wants me anymore. It's not picking a wife, it's waiting for others Come pick me."

Chen Jun pretended to be surprised and said: "Mr. Feng, isn't your statement too fake? Anyone with long eyes can see those beautiful girls in your film and television company. Whoever is not guarding the road you must pass and showing courtesy, hopes to become Feng Mrs."

When working with Hua Na, Feng Qiang was obsessed with the feeling of being sought after at the beginning, as if he had become a male movie star. Later, he gradually realized that what these beautiful women sought after him was nothing more than money, power, fame and fortune. , Anyway, I don't like him.If he wasn't in this position, and he was still just the one who carried bags and ran errands for the leader, even if he looked better than Pan An, few people would give him a second look.

Therefore, he put all his thoughts on doing a good job in his work, and he just entertained at the wine table when he was on the scene, and he basically didn't respond to those people's emotional exchanges after finishing the work and leaving the dinner.

"Hey, I'm used to seeing all kinds of beauties in the circle. It's difficult for ordinary women to accept. My family always says that I can't be high or low, and I don't have a regular girlfriend at 35." Feng Qiang complained, "I don't even I dare not go home, it will definitely be a forced marriage once I go back."

Chen Jun saw that Feng Qiang was really worried, so he stopped joking about that kind of thing, and said instead: "I heard from a friend that his friend in Beijing has no money to make a movie, and he is raising money everywhere. Ask me Do you want to invest in it? I can’t understand the script, but I heard that it was adapted from a novel by a well-known domestic science fiction writer. I bought that writer’s novel to read, and I became addicted after reading it. I read all the works published by that writer .”

Feng Qiang asked: "Isn't the director you mentioned short of money Director Guo?"

"Yes, the surname is Guo. He didn't have enough budget at the beginning, and he found unknown actors for both male and female leading roles. The combined salary of the two of them is only 10,000+.

"This..." Feng Qiang is a member of the industry, so he has naturally heard of this person.

Director Guo is obsessed with that writer's novel, and he is determined to present the work on the big screen.However, domestic sci-fi films have been in the archives for so many years, Hollywood’s strong output has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the audience’s aesthetics have solidified. Even if you have worked hard to produce excellent works, no one may buy it, not to mention that Director Guo is poor. It all depends on one mouth to piece things together.

At the beginning, Director Guo also said that he would invite famous celebrities from Hong Kong to participate in the film, but in the end, none of the famous ones were invited. The total cost added up was not enough to cover the fraction of the remuneration required by the famous celebrities to make cameos.Later, he fooled a well-known actor from the mainland and acted with zero pay.

The actor surnamed Wu had a drink with Director Guo and was "moved" by his eloquence. He had already gone to the set. Director Guo kept promising that he would only make a guest appearance in 3 days, but since he went, it has been almost a month. After coming out, the director added extra scenes, and there were more and more scenes.

"Mr. Chen, I asked people in the industry. Director Guo's funding gap is more than 6000 million." Feng Qiang confided, "This is not an investment that ordinary people can participate in."

Chen Jun didn't have any research on film and television investment at first, and spent all the money he earned from working hard these years and bought school district houses in Beijing and Shanghai together with Hua Mengmeng.If you really have spare money, you must invest in your own hotel series, that is the only way to make money.

Although the film and television company that Feng Qiang is in charge of here is also under Lin's company, there is no such thing as a stable profit in investment activities such as film and television. So good.

Feng Qiang said: "I will go and inquire about this matter again. If it is really a good project, the company will definitely invest in it."

In addition to the projects developed by themselves, film and television companies must follow up and invest in good projects.

Feng Qiang really went to investigate the project, but Chen Jun had already forgotten about it.

Unexpectedly, when Chen Jun was on a business trip in Africa a few days later, he received a message from Feng Qiang, saying that Director Guo had already gotten money for his sci-fi film, and that it was the actor surnamed Wu who was "tricked" into making a guest appearance in the group. The guest star became the leading role, and then the film salary changed from zero to negative 6000 million, and finally evolved into "bringing money into the group".

According to Feng Qiang's judgment, this film may really be successful, at least the funds are in place, and the special effects are said to be very serious. Although it is a cheap special effects studio for college students, it is better than no special effects.A sci-fi blockbuster with a cosmic theme should have special effects no matter what.

In the blink of an eye, the Spring Festival came, the film was released, and the box office exploded. It was hailed as the pioneering work of the first year of domestic science fiction films.

At the annual meeting that year, Feng Qiang drank a little too much, and held Chen Jun to complain: "It's all because I didn't know enough, and I missed the opportunity. If our company can invest money in Guo Dao in advance, it will definitely make a lot of money. Do you know how much the box office is?" It is estimated to be at least [-] million. No one expected it to be like this. Except for the actor surnamed Wu, there are basically no particularly well-known actors. It is still a purely domestic science fiction film. It seems that the domestic film and television market is popular. It's about to change."

Chen Jun persuaded Feng Qiang a few words, and then suggested: "Such a good film, we need to make a few follow-up films, right? Let's follow up and just invest in some."

Feng Qiang cheered up: "That's right, we still have an advantage. For example, the second part of the movie has a lot of demand for overseas filming. We can cooperate with a high degree, and not only pay for it."

Chen Jun nodded: "Yes, we have people and land. There are many workers on the project, and they are usually idle. They can act as group performers and set up sets for overseas scenes. Our venue is large enough."

Compared with the embarrassment during the filming of the first film, after the film became popular, there were many people who wanted to invest in the second film, and Director Guo didn't want anyone's money.He got the investment, and he mostly used it in real scene construction and hiring top experts as consultants.

The special effects are of course shotguns and cannons, and many of them use real mechanical equipment for live shooting.The kind of hot, super-large-scale large-scale real-life shooting scenes of large-scale infrastructure construction would not even dare to be replaced by other national teams. Only Chinese people, especially those in the field of construction machinery, are not at all afraid to see it. After all, they usually do this.

There is a place, there are manpower, and the money is not bad. The workers are enthusiastically using the equipment to do things. They are not playing other people, or playing themselves. It doesn’t matter whether the camera exists or not. Everything is shot so naturally.

The fact that Lin's Pictures was shortlisted for investment also relied on the energy of the entire Lin Group.Not only in terms of real estate, but also a lot of cooperation in technology and industry. This is a group that allocates resources in an integrated manner, and has more advantages than companies that simply only pay for it.

In addition, the group's current scientific and technological strength can also act as some technical consultants, and even develop customized products for film needs.

The space capsule arm that Lin Mengxi participated in research has been in the sky for a long time, and it has played a role. This is different from the robot for hemorrhoid surgery.

In the past, everyone knew this concept from Hollywood movies, but now it has become a reality.What foreigners boasted about in movies back then, Chinese people silently worked hard to catch up with and finally achieved. Such achievements and pride cannot be replaced by anything else.

Now, Lin Mengxi has also become a member of the scientific expert advisory group in the second film crew of Director Guo's film.

It was rare for Lin Ruoyan to sit and eat with her son. After his son went to university, he lived on campus all year round. He rarely came out of the secret research base when he started his doctorate.It was released this time because of being a scientific consultant, giving lectures to the crew, and sneaking back home after the lecture. The total vacation time was less than 24 hours.

"What did you give the crew consultant?" Lin Ruoyan asked curiously.

Lin Mengxi smiled and replied: "They want to create a scene of a space elevator and ask about the basic principles. In fact, we are also studying this. Western scientists have proposed some principles decades ago. Now that the level of technology has been greatly improved, it is really necessary to create in reality. A space elevator, etc., is not a fairy tale when the basic materials are perfected."

"Why are you eating so fast? Do you have an appointment with the beautiful woman?" Lin Ruoyan saw that her son was not in the mood to chat in detail, so she lowered her head and started eating. After eating, she went to change clothes and dress up. She looked even better than when she went to give a lecture to the crew in the morning. Zheng Zheng, I always feel like something is wrong.

Lin Mengxi replied generously: "As soon as I enroll in the university I attend, I am considered a member of the country, with food, housing, distribution, and internal friendships, which are said to be 'introduced' to my daughter-in-law.

Mom, although you have been single and happy all these years, I have learned a painful lesson from Dad.He always told me that as a man, we should find a wife early and we should not delay in getting married. When we see a suitable one, we should lock up and get the certificate quickly.Otherwise, a mistake would be an eternal hatred, and now he can only sit on the empty bed, peeking at your interview video and chatting for comfort, what a pity.I can't go his way.
