How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 559: Men have to commit, and so do women

Han Sanpin: "..."

He really didn't expect Zhang Nan to say such a thing to him.

"Xiao Jiang, he can't!" Han Sanpin muttered.

Zhang Nan shook his head slightly when he heard this and asked, "How much investment did you give to Jiang Wen's new project?"

"One hundred and fifty million yuan."

Han Sanpin hesitated for a moment, but still told the actual amount, and then explained: "After all, he has just made "Let the Bullets Fly" with a box office of 700 million yuan, and this is the first time he has come to me for a cooperation project, and his offer is too little. It’s not appropriate.”

"Then let me remind you that in order to make this film, at least another 1.5 billion yuan will have to be spent on it." Zhang Nan reminded Han Sanpin according to the original budget of Jiang Wen's "One Step Away" in time and space.

Han Sanpin is not good at mathematics, but as a mainlander, he is still proficient in basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. He immediately calculated that Zhang Nan's estimated production cost for the "One Step Away" project was 300 million yuan.

The nest immediately exploded.

"300 million RMB in production fees? Then it takes 900 million RMB at the box office to make back the money, and 1 billion RMB at the box office to make a small profit of 30 million?" Han Sanpin's words were a bit broken.

There is no way not to break the sound.

Because based on the ratio of investment to income, this is simply a failed project.

Zhang Nan raised his hand to indicate to Han Sanpin that he was not excited, and gave an example: "You even voted for [Wuji] and [Chibi], Jiang Wen is [one step away], that's not a joke~, after all, you won't have those two The movie is such a scam, and money has depreciated a lot now. Three hundred million yuan seems like a lot, but in reality...it is indeed a lot, but Huaying has a strong foundation and can still afford it, right?"

Han Sanpin: "..." What you said makes so much sense, I'm speechless.

Seeing that Han Sanpin was speechless, Zhang Nan stopped making sarcastic remarks and repeated the same old tune sincerely, "So, I still suggest that you follow what I proposed at the beginning and attract other investors to step forward." In Yao]’s project, we can’t say that dead Taoist friends are better than poor Taoists. After all, we can reduce losses, pay less points, and there are people to face it together. How good and warm~”

The corners of Han Sanpin's eyes twitched. After thinking for a while, he nodded heavily.

Then Zhang Nan added: "So, why did you come to me today? It couldn't be to discuss the [One Step Away] project!"

After hearing what Zhang Nan said, Han Sanpin reacted and immediately became energetic again and said: "That's not true. We just chatted about the [One Step Away] project in passing. I came here today mainly to ask you questions. , are there any good projects abroad? After I finished my collaboration with Spielberg on [War Horse], I am currently short of projects that will allow China Film to continue its international impact."

"Last year, there was [War Horse]. The movie did not lose money and made a small profit. And if nothing unexpected happens, I will start [Transformers 3] again next year. It's nothing to take a year off. You are a Chinese film company." Boss, you can't catch me doing it alone." Zhang Nan replied.

Han Sanpin's mouth felt bitter when he heard this. He couldn't say anything yet. After all, the co-production plan of the "Transformers" series and Spielberg's "War Horse" project were indeed brought about by Zhang Nan through the matchmaking of Huaying.

"Anan, I also know that it's not appropriate to ask you to make connections all the time, but... I really have no other way here! If you think of a way, I should be absolutely unambiguous."

Han Sanpin was so anxious that he almost rubbed his hands to express his gratitude to Zhang Nan. Then he calmed down and explained the reason why he was so anxious, "Originally, my idea for this new overseas project was to hunt rabbits in the grass and try to Give it a try.

If it doesn't work out, just come here to wish you a son or daughter.

Now that it's done, let's see if we can move it up a little further.

But when you talk to me about the prospects of Jiang Wen’s [One Step Away] project, I know that if there is no action this time, let alone moving up, I will probably not be able to stay in this position. "

Zhang Nan nodded slightly when he heard this, agreeing with Han Third Grade's words, because Han Third Grade of the original time and space was dismissed two years later.

"It is estimated that it will be difficult to catch up with this year's projects, and the main focus must be on next year." Zhang Nan said.

Han Sanpin was a little anxious, "I want to give it a try too." "[The Hunger Games] is about to be finished, [Avengers 1] is being released, and [006], a collaboration with MGM, has been filmed. The film contract to guest star in "Batman 3" has also been sold to Paramount Pictures. The project of "Rescue 2" is a TV station series of France 007, and I can't get involved at all. "Skyfall" I He is just a tool, only responsible for guest appearances to attract some traffic, [The Hobbit 1]... New Line and Warner are fighting for share, and they will never show any of it. How can you make it?" Zhang Nan listed his projects in 2012 and described them to Han Sanpin.

Han Sanpin fell silent upon hearing this.

He also knew something about the situation of these projects and knew that what Zhang Nan said was true.

"Then how can we put our energy into next year?" Han Sanpin exhaled and said a little more decadently.

Zhang Nan did not speak directly when he heard this, but looked at Han Sanpin quietly, and then said: "Next year——, won't there be [Transformers 3]?"

Han Sanpin also felt a little dizzy.

Zhang Nan did not continue to say anything at this time, but comforted Han Sanpin and said: "But don't worry, Mr. Han, in addition to [Transformers 3], I will definitely help Huaying look for other projects."

……

Watching Han Sanpin leave, Ye Quanzhen walked over from the side with his child in his arms and asked curiously: "Do you really want to help Mr. Han get some projects for Huaying?"

"It depends on the situation. If it can be done, just do it. If not, forget it. I personally prefer the latter." Zhang Nan replied.

Ye Quanzhen asked: "Why?"

"With a resume of strong support for [Wuji] and [Chibi], do you think Lao Han can resist and not retreat?" Zhang Nan continued to answer.

Ye Quanzhen said a little naively: "But Mr. Han also gave strong support... [Crazy Stone]."

When giving an example, Ye Quan was really stuck. This was not because Han Sanpin was incompetent, but because during the period from 2000 to 2010, it was really difficult for mainland films to come up with something interesting.

"Actually, the success of [Hero] also has a lot of support from Lao Han, but... the workplace is not a place where people's shortcomings are exposed, not to mention that Lao Han's shortcomings are really too short. He has been with Chen Wuji and Wu Baige got in touch, and besides, Lao Han has been in this position for a long time, but... normally you don't care much about these things, why are you so concerned about it today?" Zhang Nan asked Ye Quanzhen After the analysis, he asked curiously.

"Xiao Xie and Xiao Wang are divorced." Ye Quanzhen did not answer Zhang Nan's question directly, but gave Zhang Nan something to eat.

Zhang Nan didn't react for a while and was stunned for a moment. Then he realized who Xiao Xie and Xiao Wang were here.

"That incident happened in 2008, right? Xiao Xie was quite tolerant. It took four years for him to break up, but he didn't seem like such a tolerant character to me. Could it be that he wanted to have sex legally for free? , I was completely fed up, so I put it off until now!" Zhang Nan's guess was sharp.

Ye Quan was really speechless, Rou Yi clenched her fist and lightly hit Zhang Nan on the shoulder.

Seeing this, Zhang Nan held Ye Quanzhen's hand, sandwiched his eldest daughter between the two, and asked curiously: "But Xiao Xie and Xiao Wang divorced, what are you sighing about?"

"I just feel a little bit uncertain about the world, and I feel a little insecure." Ye Quan said truthfully.

Zhang Nan was a little speechless, "That brick of real gold and the silver I have given you for so many years, now that you have a baby, can't it still give you a sense of security?"

"What women want is commitment." Ye Quanzhen said nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Nan said affectionately: "Azhen, I will never divorce you."

Ye Quanzhen rolled his eyes at Zhang Nan speechlessly, "Why divorce without getting married? Don't make things weird for me."
