Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

After Jiang Wen came out of Venus, he immediately called Han Sanpin.

There is a blockbuster film, why don’t you tell Han Sanpin about it.

How much they invest is their business, but if you don't even contact them, then you are being ignorant.

If you are not sensible, you will be punished.

And if a blockbuster movie wants to achieve good results, it cannot do without China Film.

Daystar has already been tied to the chariot, and then it will take care of China Film.

We had a great time working together with Wanda when they were filming "Let the Bullets Fly". They also have a theater chain under their belt, and they also got involved.

With the protection of these three companies, the theater chain alone will provide enough.

Jiang Wen seemed to see a bright future.

Step by step, I will get back everything I lost in the past!

After the call was connected, Han Sanpin did not give Jiang Wen an immediate reply. He only said that he would have a meeting in a few days.

Jiang Wen also knew the process of this kind of company, and it took him two or three years to make a movie. It was really not less than three days, so he agreed with a smile, and did not make any more phone calls.

Wait for China Film to reply first, and then look for other companies based on the conditions, or simply let the news go and wait for others to come to you, or you can improve the conditions.

What he didn't know was that as soon as he hung up the phone, Han Sanpin called Gu Ming.

"Lao Gu, Jiang Wen said that you only accounted for 5% of the investment in his new film?"

"That's right!" Gu Ming immediately figured out Han Sanpin's purpose for finding him and replied honestly.

"why?"

"That's not your style."

"Are you not optimistic about Jiang Wen's new film?"

"Who said that? I don't invest, I just give others a share of investment, and Jiang Wen doesn't find it easy to cooperate with me. Now that "Let the Bullets Fly" is selling well, can't we just rely on it? Leap, the sky is high and the birds can fly?"

"In other words, they are true friends. That's why I said that. Otherwise, I would definitely hold on to you."

"Really?" Han Sanpin smiled, "But how did I discover that once you only occupy 5% or 10% of the movies, most of them will have poor box office and will lose money in the end. And once you occupy more, it will be It was a box office hit.”

"Even for the same person, if you invest, his movies will make money, but if you don't invest, his movies will lose money, such as Wang Xiaoshuai."

"Is there any?" Gu Ming, who was listening to the phone, raised his hand and touched his nose.

Good guy, have you been discovered?

Do not!

It can’t be said that it was discovered.

Strictly speaking, it was Han Sanpin who noticed his own operation.

Can he be sure?

Not sure.

Naturally, he would not admit it, "Who knows, maybe it's because I made a profit on my investment, but the director went off and lost money."

"Besides, whatever I invest in makes money, doesn't Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises" lose money?"

"The size of my share was purely based on the financial situation at the time and the director's wishes."

"Then you mean, "One Step Away" can make money?"

"I'm not a god." Gu Ming didn't answer directly, "But if you have to ask me, I'll give it a 50-50 shot."

"After all, it was made by Jiang Wen, and it is a film of the Republic of China. When promoting it, it was said that it was about Zhang Mazi going to Shenghai. It would definitely attract a lot of viewers. It doesn't need to be large. With the box office of "Let the Bullets Fly," the movie would be a loss. No."

"As for losing money, you also know that whether a film loses money or not is not just a matter of the quality of the film, not to mention the fact that there is only one script. Even if I am a god, I can't predict it."

"You're a little too modest." Han Sanpin chuckled. From Gu Ming's words, he could tell that Gu Ming was not very optimistic about the film.

But it's not a loss of blood, it should be a small loss.

Treat small losses as gains.

Han Sanpin is very interesting. The investment is similar to that of "The Promise". How can it still be lower than the box office of "The Promise" a few years ago?

And I can invest less.

The risk is not high and it can be done.

"Then I'll vote 40%?"

"I really can't give you any advice on this." Gu Ming said. "Okay, if you can't give it, then you can't give it. Come to the premiere tonight. At least you showed up in it, even if it was only for three or four seconds."

"Don't worry, remember, we husband and wife will go together to support you."

"Hahaha, when will the three of you come to support me, I will give you a gift for your child."

"Okay, I'll remember it for him." Gu Ming hung up the phone.

……

That night was the premiere of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China".

Gu Ming and Yan Danchen arrived at the scene together.

On Gu Ming's left is Jackie Chan, who also played a role in the movie.

"Lao Gu." Jackie Chan smiled and chatted with Gu Ming, "How about the new movie?"

"It's ready and it will be released in mid-December."

"I believe you can do it." Jackie Chan patted Gu Ming's knee, "Waiting to see you become a god at the Oscars."

"How can we talk about becoming a god?" Gu Ming smiled and started talking about Jackie Chan's current situation.

After a while, the video was officially played, and Gu Ming started watching it intently.

Even though he had seen it in his previous life, Gu Ming still looked at it seriously.

No way, even if you haven't seen this kind of movie, don't you know the plot?

Who dares to take pictures that are not historically accurate?

Moreover, strictly speaking, Gu Ming still likes watching movies with this kind of main theme.

Except for a certain period of time.

Everyone seems to have found the secret to making a fortune, and several directors have started co-producing the xx series "Me and Me".

When I looked at it, I didn’t like it.

I don’t know why, maybe it’s because some of the clips were very speechless, especially those taken by Brother Chen.

what……

Thinking of him, Gu Ming felt a little envious. Some people still recognized him as a great director after more than 20 years.

It can only be said that "Farewell My Concubine" holds too much weight in the hearts of movie fans.

"That is to say, I'm thinking of someone who got dressed a little late. Otherwise, I have to grab "Farewell My Concubine" and see what Director Chen will do."

It's a pity that I couldn't grab it because I was still a high school student at that time.

Gu Ming sighed silently.

When the movie ended, Gu Ming clapped hard.

And I followed the trend for a long time.

It wasn't until someone started making gestures to ask everyone to stop clapping that they also lowered their hands.

……

After the premiere, Han Sanpin found Gu Ming and asked, "What did you think of the filming?"

"In one word, great!"

"Is that a word?" Han Sanpin curled his lips, "And isn't your answer a little perfunctory?"

"Ah? Is it perfunctory?" Gu Ming said seriously, "This is the best movie I have ever seen. I can't describe my mood anymore. It reminds me of the hard struggle back then..."

"Okay, stop reading the elementary school composition," Han Sanpin interrupted Gu Ming, "Let me tell you something serious, what do you think of the box office of this film?"

"Starting at 400 million."

"Then are you interested in making a movie with the main theme?"

"This is business, right?"
