Became the best actor, the system just finished loading

Chapter 54: Pulling the flag to pretend to be a tiger (asking for monthly ticket)

If you want to be respected in front of others, you must suffer behind their backs.

I don’t know why, but when several people heard Qi Hao say that there was someone behind him, they all thought of this sentence at the same time.

Nonsence!

Our Qi Hao is definitely not that kind of person. It’s all because of those media outlets that slandered Qi Hao some time ago, and they accidentally led them astray.

"You know about capital? No wonder you set up your own studio." Ye Weimin suddenly realized.

Your own failure is terrible, but your friend’s success is even more worrying!

Qi Hao did not explain, but nodded and said: "I have a friend who wants to invest in movies for fun. He has quite a bit of money. He might be interested in a big-budget movie like ours. How much money does he need now?"

"What does he do?" Chen Kexin must ask clearly.

"Coal business..." Qi Hao said bluntly.

"Oh!!!" Chen Kexin and others looked at each other and suddenly realized.

It turned out to be the coal boss!
Directors' attitude towards coal bosses can be described as love-hate.

Coal bosses rarely interfere with the creation of film and television dramas. Apart from finding actresses, they have no other requirements and they respect professionals very much.

But they would squeeze in some people occasionally.

It’s hard to describe the quality of the female celebrities stuffed in. After all, the coal bosses’ aesthetic taste is appalling.

"Okay, 20 million will be enough for now, and the follow-up will depend on the situation." Ye Weimin nodded, approving the coal boss's participation.

Now "The Siege of the City in October" does not lack big capital, but what it lacks is local rich people.

"Okay, the film festival is about to start, I'll give her a call and ask."

Qi Hao stood up, quickly found an empty corner and started to make a phone call. The person he was contacting was naturally Gao Yang.

This coal boss was a bit impatient and repeatedly urged Qi Hao to find him a project.

If his daughter hadn't been held hostage by Qi Hao, they might have turned against each other.

It is precisely because Gao Yang's daughter Gao Fei is an employee of Qi Hao's studio that Qi Hao is particularly concerned about finding projects.

Moreover, Qi Hao wants long-term cooperation.

So he didn't want Gao Yang to be cheated after entering the market.

Now, even if "The Siege of the City in October" does not have a huge box office hit, it should at least meet the requirements for winning awards.

After all, the films made by Chen Kexin often win numerous awards.

"Brother Yang, there is a project now. The supervisor is Chen Kexin, who was the director of The Warlords some time ago. The producer is Ye Weimin, who directed Young and Dangerous: The Thirteen Sisters of Hongxing and The King of Comedy starring Stephen Chow. Um, the director is Chen Delin, who directed The Secret Service starring Fang Long..."

Before Qi Hao finished speaking, Gao Yang shouted excitedly:
"Vote, vote!"

It feels like I wanted to watch a football game, but was dragged directly to the World Cup final.

He thought Qi Hao would give him a small cake to taste first.

After all, as an actor, Qi Hao has little say and connections in the capital circle.

I didn't expect that the first hit would be a king bomb.

"The Warlords", "Young and Dangerous", "Fang Long"...all of them are well-known.

"Brother Yang, don't get excited. I need to make a few things clear to you."

"Actually, those directors and producers are not important. I don't even know what producers and producers do, but I believe in you, brother. If you say you can invest, then you can definitely invest..."

Gao Yang was calm, but his heroic spirit was not diminished at all.

"First, there is Chen Kexin in this project. He is quite capable, but he is really greedy. However, he is only the supervisor. The director and producer are other people. There is not much he can do. I will also let Lao Tian help you..."

Nowadays, some people make a living by their looks, while others make a living by being shameless. Chen Kexin is obviously the latter.

He is well-known in the circle for his love of making money.

However, "The Besieged City" is the result of many years of hard work by Chen Delin, and Ye Weimin is a man who gets things done.

There are also Yu Dong and Han Sanping at the capital level.

Chen Kexin really couldn't make much money from this movie which cost just over 100 million yuan.

As for the Central City built at a cost of 40 million yuan, that is a project undertaken by Songjiang Film and Television City.

"I understand. Who wouldn't be greedy? Haha!"

Gao Yang was a little touched. Qi Hao really cared about him.

However, the people that Qi Hao came into contact with were completely on a different level from those he had come into contact with in terms of greed and boldness.

The coal boss is never afraid of your greed, he is just afraid that you won’t take it.

Of course, the film and television industry is different from his previous industry. With Qi Hao helping him to keep an eye on things, he can rest assured.

"Secondly, the investment in this movie is too high. The total investment is over 100 million yuan, and now you are required to invest 20 million yuan. From my personal judgment, the movie may not make much money, but without a big payroll like Li Lianjie, the loss will not be too much."

Qi Hao told the truth.

He didn't have a suitable script, so he didn't want to miss "October Besieged" and wanted to find new investors for "October Besieged", but he wouldn't fool around.

"Twenty million, no problem!" Gao Yang agreed without hesitation.

Compared to spending 10 million to invest in an art film without big names or famous directors, it is definitely better to invest in a blockbuster like this one with so many superstars.

It will be so cool to brag about it later.

Ordinary coal bosses may not find such an opportunity. As the first investment to pay for tuition, if 20 million can be recovered, Gao Yang feels that it is not a loss.

"Well, don't have too high expectations for this movie. At most, I would say it's not a terrible movie, but it's unlikely to be a classic."

Qi Hao couldn't help but remind him.

He was afraid that Gao Yang had too high expectations for the first movie he invested in, thinking it would be a classic in film history.

"It's okay, it's okay to just watch the fun."

Coal bosses are so wealthy and they really like to watch the fun.

After Qi Hao picked up the car, Gao Yang planned to find a place to set up a banquet to celebrate, saying that it was a tradition in Shanxi that not only did they have to set up a banquet, but they also had to set off fireworks.

Unfortunately, Qi Hao rejected him.

"Thirdly, it may be difficult to fill the film. Filming will start in June and the actors have almost been confirmed."

"Sergey people?"

Gao Yang didn't understand.

"Ahem, some investors like to bring in relatives, friends... to experience acting."

Qi Hao didn't say it so bluntly, in fact, it was just a concubine, mistress, mistress, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh...

As for coal bosses, if they are poor they will keep to themselves, but if they are rich they will have many wives and concubines.

"Oh no, don't worry. I've always told you that professionals should do professional things. I'm relieved to have you here. I won't interfere..."

"Then I have no problem with that, but before investing, Brother Yang, you have to register a company with film and television investment business."

Qi Hao didn't know whether Gao Yang was ready.

"Oh, just help me register one, register it in Ah Fei's name, you don't need to pay, I'll give you... 20% of the shares."

Gao Yang doesn't worry too much about such trivial matters.

He has enough trust in Qi Hao.

If Qi Hao really tricked him...

Well, do you think he earned his billions of dollars by digging them out one pickaxe at a time?

"Brother Yang, you can't do that. You can't do that."

This money is a bit hot to handle, and Qi Hao's bottom line is still very high.

He cooperated with Gao Yang mainly because he wanted to use Gao Yang's car to enter the capital circle and get rid of the situation of relying on drinking and socializing to find resources.

Just having this convenience is enough, I really don’t want to make money from Gao Yang.

For example, in "October Besieged City", Gao Yang invested 20 million yuan, and he might lose money, but Qi Hao's salary of 2 million yuan will be paid in time regardless of whether the investment is a loss or not.

If we take this 20%, there will be too many implications.

What if Gao Yang wants him to wash gold coins or something... he won't be able to get rid of it.

"Just consider it as management fee. I treat you as a brother, so please don't be so formal."

Gao Yang was very persistent, even though his behavior of giving 20% ​​directly seemed very absurd and made people feel uneasy.

Qi Hao wanted to continue to refuse, but Gao Yang had already hung up the phone.

Moreover, there are more and more people in the venue, so it is really not suitable to chat on the phone.

Qi Hao had to give up temporarily and went to synchronize information with Ye Weimin and Chen Kexin.

Don't hesitate because of the 20 million, hurry up and prepare to start filming.

Damn, a movie with an investment of hundreds of millions has to change its release date if there is a gap of 20 million. Is this too cruel?

"You, the person behind this, have decided to invest without even showing your face?"

Ye Weimin was startled.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that many movies cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

In fact, except for a few large companies in the industry, the investment scale of most producers is below 10 million.

Taking out 20 million at once would really make money-lovers' eyes light up.

"My boss is very easy to talk to, and he does have some money, but this is his first time investing in a movie, so he needs your help to give him more confidence in investing in our movie, haha..."

There was a mixture of truth and falsehood in what Qi Hao said.

The main purpose is to tell Chen Kexin and Ye Weimin that although the coal boss is rich, he is not a fool. If you want to continue to cooperate with him in the future, it is best not to be too shady.

"Don't worry, does he have that much wealth?"

Ye Weimin crossed his index fingers, which represented ten. In this situation, he was asking the coal boss whether he had one billion yuan.

"How would I know? I have to be very careful in front of him. I only know that he is doing well and has a good reputation..."

Qi Hao is using a big banner to hide his own tiger, and he is definitely going to push Gao Yang to a higher position.

However, Qi Hao did not lie.

Gao Yang must be very successful to have come this far.

Moreover, he is different from ordinary coal bosses. He looks like the kind of person who can take up the weapon of law and can also put down the law and take up weapon.
