Chapter 210 Selective Selection

"Mr. Lu, 1.2 million, what do you think?"

Wu Jing thought carefully that the total investment of 2.1 million yuan was just enough to complete the filming, but if he had another million yuan, he could arrange a few more real-life large-scale scenes.

At least we can rent a few more tanks instead of wasting time on using fake CG special effects. The resulting filming will be more shocking.

Lu Liang smiled and said, "Mr. Wu, think carefully. You only have one chance."

"Mr. Lu, I'm sure that 1.2 million is enough. Any more would just be a waste of money." Wu Jing didn't dare to mention it anymore. His expectation for Wolf Warrior 2 was that it would be a success if the box office exceeded billion.

As long as Lu Liang agrees, the total investment of this project will reach 2.3 million yuan, and the box office is expected to reach 6.9 million yuan to break even.

After deducting the box office share from the remaining 3.1 million, there is at least a 15% return rate, which is worthy of the investors.

Lu Liang nodded with a smile, and called Tang Caidie to contact Wu Jing's agent: "Mr. Wu, the crew is still in Africa, so you can go back to shoot without worry. I will ask Mr. Tang to transfer the funds to your account as soon as possible."

"Oh, okay." Wu Jing was stunned and dazed for a moment. In the past, when looking for investors, it would take a lot of effort to get hundreds of millions or even tens of millions.

This is an investment of 1.2 million real money, and it was finalized after only ten minutes of conversation?
It seems easier than having a meal.

"Mr. Wu, don't worry."

Lu Liang smiled. Although Wu Jing was 11 years older than him, it didn't matter. He patted Wu Jing on the shoulder.

The reason why he was able to invest so readily was also due to the future message that sounded early last night.

【2017年9月28日,战狼2下映,总票房56.94亿元】

As soon as Lu Liang received the news, he asked someone to investigate whether there was any suspicion of money laundering in the movie.

After eliminating the suspicion of money laundering, investment will come naturally. The higher the investment ratio now, the greater the return.

Tang Caidie chuckled: "This is our style, Mr. Lu. As long as he is optimistic about the project, it will be worth billions."

The largest single investment made by their company so far is probably the US$5.2 million in Ningde Times.

At that time, since they were the only ones investing, the funds involved were huge, and Ningde Times had been established for a long time, it only took a week to investigate the financial situation.

Projects like movies are similar to real estate projects. Basically, it is a project. If a new company is established, it will not take half a day to investigate as long as they are willing to open up the data.

Wu Jing was stunned and said seriously, "Boss Lu, please rest assured that I will definitely deliver a satisfactory result for you."

"Do your best."

Lu Liang smiled and said no more.

They have been buying US stocks and A-shares recently, and they still have 323 billion yuan in their accounts. An investment of more than million yuan is not even a fraction of it.

If it weren’t for the amazing box office performance of 54 billion, the film market would be difficult to be artificially intervened.

Even if Lu Liang intervened, the situation would develop in a positive way. For example, because of his fame, the box office would increase again.

If it weren't for these reasons, this message might have been ignored by Lu Liang like the previous ones.

After all, his current capital is too huge and too many people are watching him, so he can no longer steal as he pleases.

Take Sanjiang Shopping for example, last month, thanks to the entry of Ali, its stock price soared tenfold as if it had been injected with chicken blood.

Lu Liang knew in advance that the stock price would increase tenfold, but even if it increased tenfold, it would only increase from 18 billion to 182 billion, and the market's circulating shares accounted for 25%.

If he joins, it may become 30 billion, but he will most likely become a long-term shareholder of the company.

So many times, he would selectively choose projects that are not easily interfered with, rather than blindly following others.

Wu Jing suddenly had an idea: "Mr. Lu, how about you play the role of Zhuo Yifan in the movie?"

Last year, he invited Xiao Wang, not because he thought Xiao Wang’s image was that good, but mainly because he was the super internet celebrity of the year.

All the funds for his movie were used for filming, and the actors' salaries accounted for less than 8%, so he really needed big names to join in.

Lu Liang is undoubtedly a more suitable candidate. It is said that his popularity this year has surpassed Xiao Wang, becoming the number one Internet celebrity.

The agent was sweating profusely and hurriedly said with a smile: "Please don't be surprised, Mr. Lu. Brother Jing is usually busy with work and rarely goes online."

It has become a secret that Lu Liang doesn't like to show up in public, otherwise there would not be a high-definition photo of his face on the Internet until now.

Wu Jing's invitation to him to perform was obviously dancing in a minefield. If he offended Lu Liang, the 1.2 million investment would be wasted in a matter of minutes.

Lu Liang didn't care and just laughed it off: "Maybe next time. This role has too many scenes and I can't take it on."

Wu Jing obviously wanted to say something else, but his agent pinched his hand, so he had to say it in a sullen manner.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the two walked out of the building, with the agent holding the contract, feeling as if they were in another world.

In one hour, the 1.2 million yuan film investment was finalized. As long as Tianxing reviewed the financials and found no problems, the funds would be remitted to the public account within three days.

Wu Jing looked angrily: "Why didn't you let me speak just now?"

If Lu Liang joins the movie, he is confident that the expected box office can be raised to 15 billion, or even more.

Such a big gimmick just slipped away like that.

"Don't be ungrateful. Mr. Lu doesn't like to be in the spotlight. Even if you pay him 2 million, he won't act in the film."

The agent glared at him unhappily and told him all about Lu Liang. The mysterious speculator was one of his countless identities.

It would be fine if he just played a role, but they also wanted him to go abroad. Who doesn't know that Lu Liang has hedged against Wall Street funds time and again and defeated them several times?

If you go to a remote place like Africa, there might be a sniper behind you. If anything happens to Lu Liang, his investors will definitely tear Wu Jing to pieces.

Wu Jing was stunned. He didn't expect there were so many reasons. He laughed dryly and said, "Brother Zeng, I'm very grateful. Please help me book a ticket. I'm going back to Africa tonight. I'll leave the logistics base to you."

At night, Lu Liang and Xiao Wang met at the Jiangbian Bar.

Xiao Wang looked strange: "Are you going to the municipal government to attend the commendation meeting tomorrow?"

He was not surprised at all that Lu Liang took over the remaining investment amount of Wolf Warrior 2. After all, Lu Liang had the ability to do so and had invested in several film and television projects before.

The key point is that Lu Liang plans to attend the commendation meeting and decides to step out from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, which surprised him.

"Are you so well-informed?" Lu Liang was surprised.

Xiao Wang snorted coldly, with a proud look on his face: "I am not talented, but I was the winner of the top ten outstanding young entrepreneurs in the city last year, and next year I will become one of the top ten outstanding young entrepreneurs in the country."

Lu Liang frowned, and Xiao Wang smiled proudly: "I'm one year older than you, so it's not too much to call me senior brother, right?"

Lu Liang glanced at it, took a sip of wine, and said with a melancholy look on his face: "Isn't the gold content of this too low?"

He had expectations, as the last time he received an official honor was when he came third in the school's short-distance running competition in high school.

When he heard that Xiao Wang was also one year older than him and was going to become a national outstanding young entrepreneur next year, Lu Liang suddenly felt uninterested, as if he was not particularly looking forward to it.

Xiao Wang's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he could only sigh helplessly in the end: "Old Lu, you know, everyone calls me Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang, or at least calls me by my first name."

There is only Lu Liang, this loser bastard.

People call him Xiao Wang Xiao Wang every day. The most annoying thing is that he has become desensitized and seems to have accepted this name.

"Really? I didn't notice." Lu Liang teased with a smile.

"Forget it. I won't bother with you."

Xiao Wang suddenly calmed down and said with a smile: "The second season of Hello Goddess is about to be filmed. Are you interested in being a judge?"

"Not interested." Lu Liang refused without thinking.

I’m exposing it now just because I don’t want netizens to dig deeper and leave too deep an impression on them. I’ll try to reduce exposure as much as possible in the future.

Unless the time really comes and he is needed to be the spokesperson, it is obvious that Xiao Wang's panda is not qualified.

Xiao Wang's face darkened. This was too straightforward. He immediately cursed: "Believe it or not, I will expose your dirty laundry."

Lu Liang smiled calmly: "Then do you believe it or not? You can't reveal it, or you can't spread it at all?"

Xiao Wang was suddenly speechless and remained silent.

He picked up the bottle of wine and drank silently.

he believe.

In the middle of last month, that unofficial video had already elevated Lu Liang to a very high status.

Once Lu Liang steps out from behind the scenes, he will be better protected and the so-called black material will probably not be exposed.

"Xiao Wang, take your time drinking. You have to get up early tomorrow morning. I'll go back and rest first."

Lu Liang smiled happily, patted Xiao Wang's shoulder, and waved to the bodyguard in the distance.

There are four of them in total, from a professional security company. They are all tall and strong, about 1.8 meters tall.

Xiao Wang was angry and had no appetite to drink anymore. He thought that bars were only for the elderly, while young people full of energy like him should go to bars and enjoy the extravagant nightlife.

 I want to write one more chapter, but I don't want to stay up late.

  Let's wait till tomorrow.
