The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 268 Invest in "The Promise"?sure profit
When Li Shengyao was serious about filming in Shanghai, the release time of "Pirates of the Caribbean" in China was almost over.

The total box office is 3000 and 1000 million. After deducting various taxes and theater distribution share, the final calculated income is about [-] million.

In other words, Lee Shing Yew and China Film Group each got 500 million.

Naturally, the money didn't arrive so quickly, even if it was a film released by China Film Group, it would take half a year for the theater to wait.

At the same time, "Saw" was a big hit at the Sundenis Film Festival, and word of mouth spread back to the beautiful country. Lionsgate took the opportunity to release the film in the beautiful country, and won 4000 million box office in just two weeks.

If there is no accident, when the movie is released, the final box office can reach 5000 million knives.

A film with an investment of more than 100 million won a box office of 5000 million. After the account is divided, it reaches the producer, and there must be more than 1000 million dollars.

Although I know that Lionsgate Films will make a fuss on the ledger, and they will be assigned to Lee Shengyao's side, so there should be very few.

But it still shocked the senior management of China Film Group.

After all, Lee Shing Yew invested in the film two years ago, so he chose this one out of so many small independent films, which shows Lee Shing Yew's vision.

On this day, Han Sanping went to Shanghai, found Li Shengyao in person, and invited Li Shengyao to have dinner at the Jin Jiang Hotel.

I ordered a table of good dishes and served good wine.

Li Shengyao didn't drink, so he asked an assistant director who could drink to accompany Han Sanping for a few drinks.

"Director Li, your vision is really amazing. How did you know that "Saw" would have such a score?"

Li Shengyao smiled, "I was lucky. I registered the copyright at that time, and then I was wandering in Hollywood. I happened to meet Wen Ziren and Werner. I think they are very talented. I also think the script is good and the cost is low. Only four The box office of 500 million will be able to recoup, so I have the courage to vote once."

"Director Li, do you intend to invest together?"

Li Shengyao used "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Chain Saw" to bring benefits to China Film Group. Han Sanping felt that Li Shengyao was a talent and was worth wooing. He planned to share an opportunity to make money with Li Shengyao.

At this time, he drank a little wine, his face was slightly red, but his small eyes were very sincere.

There are not many people who can be treated by Han Sanye like this.

Li Shengyao didn't immediately agree. After all, there are very few movies that can make money in the mainland these days. Even if China Film Group invests, he doesn't have to follow suit.

"What movie does Director Han like?"

"Absolutely good movie," Han Sanping drank a glass of wine with a smile, clicked his tongue twice, and then winked at a middle-aged man wearing glasses beside him.

The middle-aged man immediately went on to say, "Director Li, our President Han is absolutely sincere this time. You've heard that Director Chen is preparing a new movie, right?"

Chen Dadao, Chen Poet.

Li Shengyao was taken aback for a moment, and then thought of the big bad movie "The Promise" released in 05.

"Is it director Chen Kai?"

"That's right, Director Chen is preparing an epic blockbuster film covering top stars from China, Japan, Korea, Mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan."

The man was very excited and his voice was trembling, "It is said that Zhang Bozhi, Nicholas Tse, Hiroyuki Sanada from the island country, Zhang Dongjian from the peninsula, and Liu Ye and Chen Hong from the mainland are invited. This lineup is no worse than "Heroes."

This lineup sounds good, but it really can't compare with "Heroes".

The heroes are Li Lianjie and Zhang Ziyi, and "In the Mood for Love" became a big hit and won awards abroad. At that time, Liang Chaowei and Zhang Manyu were on fire, not to mention Chen Daoming and Zhen Bullet.

However, Li Shengyao found that not only the person who spoke was very excited, but Han Sanping also nodded repeatedly, obviously agreeing with this statement.

Don't arbitrarily deny what a person recognizes, this person's cognition is the basis of his existence.

Li Shengyao listened quietly.

"Director Li, the actors of this blockbuster movie have basically been contacted. Many companies are rushing to invest, and we only got 40.00% of the share. Director Li, do you want to share [-]% with you?"

The crucian carp soup on the table was still hot, with white smoke coming out.

Through the white smoke, Li Shengyao could just see the excited eyes of the middle-aged man.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of the herbal tea, suppressing his shock.

"The Promise" is said to have an investment of 1000 million, ten percent is [-] million.

Although Li Shengyao is now worth hundreds of millions, his money was not given by the God of Wealth.

Let alone 1000 million, 100 million will not be given away.

Even if China Film has good intentions, he will not jump into a pit for the sake of face.

But after all, he was well-intentioned, Li Shengyao organized his speech, and then slowly said: "Director Han, let's forget about this matter, how can I have the nerve to grab the share that China Film Group has finally won?"

Han Sanping waved her hand, "Director Li, don't be polite to me, earn money together, you are a generous person, and I am not a stingy person."

Li Shengyao drank another cup of tea, and then said: "Director Han, the main reason is that Fenghua's funds are not allowed. I am currently buying properties everywhere. You should know the reason?"

Han Sanping was taken aback for a moment. He had a special status, so he naturally knew the policies of the higher authorities.

At the end of the year, new regulations will be issued to allow private companies to set up cinema chains, so Lee Shengyao has bought so many buildings now that he wants to set up his own cinema chain, which does cost money.

But he didn't reveal it.

But Li Shengyao actually found out, it must be that Li Shengyao was valued by the higher-ups, and someone revealed the news in advance.

Han Sanping then thought that Fenghua had started buying properties last year, but he didn't know about it last year. He only knew about it when he went to the old leader's house to pay New Year's greetings at the beginning of the year.

In other words, Li Shengyao knew about it earlier than him.

This background is terrifying!
Han Sanping thought for a while, but felt that Li Shengyao's contribution made such treatment a matter of course.

He valued Li Shengyao even more in his heart, "Director Li, money is a trivial matter, and China Film Group can pay in advance."

Li Shengyao was speechless, and if he lied, he needed more lies to get back.

He doesn't want to analyze that "The Promise" will lose money. China Film has made a lot of money-losing movies, so it has nothing to do with him. There is no need to do sinners.

Although he is not afraid of Brother Kaizi, but for no reason, why bother to bad-mouth other people's movies?
"Director Han, thank you very much for your kindness, but I have accepted it, so the investment is fine. Before me, I asked the master to make a fortune. The first domestic movie I invested in, it is best to invest in Fenghua. This is good for Fenghua.”

"That's why I don't really want to invest in Director Chen's movie, and I will cooperate again in the future."

When Han Sanping heard the words, she immediately became more cautious.

People in the entertainment industry believe in such ghosts and ghosts.

"So that's the case, okay, then we will cooperate later."

He continued, "Unfortunately, this movie is aimed at China, Japan, Korea, and the Hong Kong Island market. It will definitely be a hit next year."

Li Shengyao laughed, "It's not a pity, I'm just as happy to see you making money."
