How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 112 Give You a Little Shock
a few days later.

Zhang Nan used a private jet to see off Empress Ye Quanzhen, who was staggering a bit.

Seeing that the time is coming to April, I met with Alan Toby, the president of New Line Pictures, in the private club where I talked about "My Best Friend's Wedding" with Julia Roberts.

The two sat opposite each other.

It can be seen that Alan Toby is very excited.

After a few polite words during the meeting, it was Alan Toby who didn't hold back and asked first.

"Zhang, are you here to talk about project investment?"

Zhang Nan nodded when he heard the words, "But Mr. Allen, the investment in my new project this time may be a bit beyond your imagination."

"Zhang, although New Line Films is not a Hollywood giant. But I can assure you that New Line will only be bigger than Hollywood giants in terms of support for your new project, and will not be smaller than them." Alan Tobhi raised his head Proudly make a commitment.

Zhang Nan bent his eyes and smiled when he heard the words, and instead of responding, he changed the subject and said, "Mr. Allen, do you know how I made my first debut work?"

"[Beijing Wuguan], with a cost of 500 million US dollars, a global box office of 4.8 million US dollars, a return rate of 96 times the box office revenue, and a world-class kung fu superstar. As long as it is in Hollywood, or as long as it is Anyone who still wants to work in the film industry, there is no one who will not study."

After Alan Tuo revealed a series of figures, he praised Zhang Nan, "Zhang, your method of using the exchange rate difference to increase the utilization rate of funds has now been spread in various small and medium-sized film and television companies in Hollywood. .

It's just that they are not very familiar with Huaguo, so they dare not try it for a while.But some time ago, your [Magic Martial Art Museum] once again sold well at the box office, and many small and medium-sized film and television companies, even Hollywood giants, are starting to make moves. "

Allen Toby was right.

After the release of [Magic City Martial Art Museum].

Zhu Guang, the chairman of the domestic Modu Film Group, and Han Sanpin, the deputy general manager of the Huaying Group, successfully formed in advance.

They all called and asked him if some Hollywood film and television companies could cooperate, and whether they were reliable.

Obviously, in the face of huge profits, many Hollywood film and television companies have decided to follow his model and want to go to the mainland of China to co-produce films to try out early adopters.

Although Zhu Guang and Han Sanpin on the phone did not mention the giant.

But Zhang Nan knew without even thinking about it. There must be giants who have also issued cooperation invitations to the Magic City Film Group and Huaying Group.

It's just that they are too famous, so there is no need to ask again.

"I plan to use the exchange rate difference in this big project." Zhang Nan said bluntly.

Alan Toby was taken aback when he heard the words, and after realizing it, he subconsciously took a breath of air-conditioning, providing a boost to global warming.

Since it is said to be a big project, the investment must not be small.

Zhang Nan now has to use the method of exchange rate difference to amplify the utilization rate of funds.

Allen Toby just thought about it for a while, and he knew how ambitious Zhang Nan was for this project.

But thinking of this, Alan Toby felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

He wants to keep New Line Pictures under his control without being gradually annexed by Warner Bros.

Then he has to make some big noises.

Therefore, the greater Zhang Nan's ambitions for this new project, the better the effect he wants to achieve through investment.

"Zhang, just tell me how much you want to invest. I'm absolutely unambiguous." Alan Toby said looking at Zhang Nan with the same ambition.

Zhang Nan didn't answer directly, but put the briefcase he was carrying on the table, and then took out a document from it and handed it over.

"Alan, regarding investment, I think it would be better for you to tell me a number after showing you these things."

Alan Toby was quite pleasantly surprised when he heard the words. He didn't expect Zhang Nan to give him such an answer.

When he took the document Zhang Nan handed over, he found that the document was a little thin, and he was a little surprised.

The project is so big, but the brochure is so thin?So perfunctory?

But when he looked down, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

Because this document is not what he imagined, a document introducing the content of the project.

It was a film project account with Citibank.

The amount of funds entered into the account is impressively written on it: [-] million US dollars.

And the investor is Zhang Nan in front of him.

In other words, Zhang Nan himself has already invested [-] million U.S. dollars in this big project that Zhang Nanzui is talking about.

"This account is opened at Citibank. If Mr. Allen wants to distinguish the authenticity, he can go to Citibank to confirm and see if I have cheated."

Zhang Nan's tone and attitude can be said to be very humble and kind.

But in Alan Toby's ears, it was particularly domineering.

Reminiscent of what Zhang Nan said before: It would be better for you to tell me a number.

This situation made Allen Toby understand that the new project that Zhang Nan was talking about might be much bigger than he imagined.

"open……"

Alan Toby wanted to say something.

But it was stopped by Zhang Nan raising his hand, "Mr. Allen, don't worry, I still have something to show you. After reading it, you can give me an answer, it's not too late."

and also?

Alan Toby was taken aback for a moment.

Then he took a document that was slightly thicker than the one just now.

Co-director: James Cameron.

Salary: $1000 million.

"Sigh~"

Alan Toby took another breath of air-conditioning, once again contributing to global warming, and looked at Zhang Nan with astonishment.

James Cameron, who just relied on "Titanic" and made a global box office hit of more than one billion US dollars, was brought in as the co-director.

Not to mention this project, just relying on the name of James Cameron, it can attract at least [-] million US dollars in investment.

Under Alan Toby's astonished gaze, Zhang Nan continued, "I plan to co-direct this project, but it's not just James Cameron alone."

"Why?" Alan Toby didn't learn how to flatter, but he did it just right.

"The director of [The Fifth Element], Luc Besson, must be familiar with Mr. Allen! On the night of the Oscars, I invited him to co-direct, and he agreed."

"Before I was in [Godzilla], I also enjoyed working with director Roland Emmerich. If I want to invite Roland to co-direct, it will not be too difficult."

"And next, I will go to the crew of [Saving Private Ryan] and [Star Wars Episode [-]]. I can tell you very seriously that I am [-]% sure that I can convince Spielberg and George Lu Cass joins this new project."

"At the same time, I have a good relationship with Will Smith and Nicolas Cage, and I'm [-]% sure that I can bring them in as actors in this project.

By the way, Uncle Cage, Mr. Allen must be familiar with him!

You said that if I invite his uncle Francis Coppola to co-direct through Cage, is there a good chance? "
