Chapter 391 6 million in debt

"It's been hard work for everyone during this period. Everyone eats and drinks well. Today, let's eat and drink freely. As long as the hotel has it, you can eat whatever you want. Order what you want!"

"Thank you Director!"

"Director, I offer you a toast!"

"We respect Director Tang."

The wrap-up banquet was held in a five-star hotel near the Ministry of National Defense, and a banquet hall was reserved. Tang An, the senior executives of the crew and the leading actors did not deliberately enter the box, and everyone ate and drank together.

They came to toast one by one, and after drinking seven or eight glasses in a row, they were almost over the top.

Stopping the crowd who were about to toast, Tang An waved his hands and said, "Come on, let's have a toast together!"

It was another cup, and it took a few mouthfuls of food to slow down.

It finally stopped.

At the dinner table, I talked about some interesting things about filming, and chatted with them about the future work.

After filming a film, except for one company, it is estimated that we will meet again for several months. I don't know if we can cooperate in the future.

"By the way, Deng Chao, how is the filming of "Di Renjie: Tongtian Empire" going?"

"My scenes are not many and have already been filmed. It is estimated that it will be finished in half a month or so."

"Old Freak Xu's last movie was probably 5 years ago. After 5 years of hard work, there is another good movie this year." Tang An said with a smile.

Then he looked at Zhang Hanyu again, "You seem to be the only movie this year, right?"

"I don't have any other dramas this year, but I'm going to shoot "New Water Margin" next month, and "The Founding of the Army" after it's over." Zhang Hanyu nodded and replied.

"Why, Lao Fei didn't take on the show for you, just one TV series and one group show in two years?" Tang An smiled and said.

"Director Tang, it's not like you don't know that my play is narrow. Boss Fei is helping me talk about a role in "Legend of the Hongmen Banquet"."

""Legend of the Hongmen Banquet", then there is no problem. Jiangning TV Station is the second largest investor in this film. President Song of Starlight International has a good relationship with you, Director Wang."

"But the last time I heard Feng Shaofeng say that he took the leading role in the film "Gong Suo Xin Jade" to play Xiang Yu and play against Li Ming. Director Wang is trying to praise him."

This kid Feng Shaofeng is not much different from being a cheater in the entertainment industry. There are a lot of big productions and leading actors in film and television dramas, but he didn't play his cards well in the end.

Acting skills are actually not bad, "Legend of Hongmen Banquet" is one of the few good movies he acted in.

This is at least one of the top five costume films in China. It has almost no shortcomings except for a few historical changes and big pot helmets.

It doesn't matter if the history is changed, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" itself is a novel that falsifies history.

The point is that it didn't change well, which caused a lot of criticism and covered up the movie itself.

Any ancient costume film and television drama has been modified a few times, it depends on whether the modified audience can accept it.

Just like the imperial decrees in the Ming and Qing Dynasties all began with "Follow the heavens, the emperor's decree said", this sentence is broken wrongly.

The correct sentence should be "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said", Fengtian Chengyun is a modifier for the emperor.

But once a sentence is broken like the following on TV, [-]% will be sprayed as S.

Moreover, there was no such term as "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor" before the Ming Dynasty. This modifier came from the Fengtian Temple that Zhu Yuanzhang built for himself.

There is another saying that it comes from a Dagui engraved with "Fengtian Fazu".

Before the Ming Dynasty, this word was not recorded in any literature review.

The edict is also often used incorrectly, and the edict is used only when it is announced to the world.

There are too many similar situations, and ordinary people don't look at whether it is correct, but only whether it is what they usually perceive.

What's even more outrageous is that in a TV series of the Han Dynasty, the prince recites the "Three Character Classic" in front of the emperor's father. The director has the ability to let him recite it backwards. Guangwu Xing, for the Eastern Han Dynasty. 400 years, finally dedicated." These few sentences are recited.

Although the leading role in the film broke [-] million for many times, the dignified Golden Horse, Hundred Flowers, and Huabiao actor, the resources are not as many as a newcomer who just joined Huayi, but there is no disappointment or resentment on Zhang Hanyu's face.

Tang An's face remained unchanged after seeing him after talking so much, so he stopped talking.

Later, all the big names in Huayi left to set up studios, but only one Zhang Hanyu hadn't left, which is enough to show that he doesn't have too much ambition.

The banquet didn't end until 10 o'clock, so Tang An didn't go home and stayed in the hotel directly.

When I got up the next day, I went to Tiangong Yicai to see how the special effects and modeling were doing.

Editing still has to wait for a few days, but "Painted Skin 2" has been edited and special effects are being done.

Tang An looked at the semi-finished product, and it was a little different from the original version, but it was a film above the pass line.

I exchanged my views on special effects with Xiao Yang and the others, and told them not to ignore quality in order to rush to work.

After dinner, I rushed to the group in the afternoon, and first called the management above the middle level for a meeting.

First, I reported the progress of several projects, said the director of the marketing department of the TV drama business department.

"Chairman, the first round of broadcasting rights of "The Happy Past of Lao Ma's Family" has sold 100 million episodes, which was jointly purchased by Anwei Satellite TV and CCTV 8."

47 episodes, a total of 4700 million, cost 3000 million, and later added 500 million, and earned 1200 million in the first round.

At present, the major TV stations have not been occupied by various costume idol dramas, martial arts idol dramas, urban idol dramas, fairy tale idol dramas, and fantasy idol dramas. There is still a market for TV dramas with realistic themes.

It shouldn't be difficult to sell 60 million in the remaining rounds, and this drama has a profit of more than 3000 million.

Sure enough, TV shows make money.

"Do a good job in the publicity work, and the Propaganda Department will also cooperate to win the second and third rounds of broadcasting rights and sell them at a good price."

The marketing department of the TV drama business department is responsible for the TV drama business, and the publicity department is responsible for the film business, but most of the time they will cooperate with each other.

"How is the shooting progress of "The Legend of Zhen Huan"?" Tang An asked again.

"Everything is going well, and it is estimated that it will be completed in two months at the latest." The director of the production department of the TV drama business department replied immediately.

"Painted Skin 2 will be released in two months, how about the plan of the Propaganda Department?"

"Chairman, I have already held a meeting with Bernard and Guang Xian's publicity department. This is the publicity plan we discussed."

Tang An took it and casually flipped through a few pages, and Zhu Mo added, "It still focuses on the scandals and feuds between the three leading actors, but this time it's true, and a photo of them confronting each other was secretly photographed by the paparazzi."

"Just follow this and let them pay attention to cooperation." Tang An nodded.

Then Chief Financial Officer Wang Wei reported the financial status of the group.

"Chairman, the production share, distribution share, TV copyright, Internet copyright, and audio-visual copyright of "Lost in Thailand" have already arrived in the account. The total is 2.6 million yuan, and the overseas copyright has just been sold for a total of 200 million US dollars."

It also sold 200 million US dollars overseas, which was beyond Tang An's expectations.

But it's normal to think about it. After all, 7 million box office is there, and there are always people who want to try their luck. There are so many countries in the world, as long as one or two countries sell well, they will not lose money.

This is more than 2.7 million in cash. At first, he thought he would finally be rich, but after hearing the report, he is still heavily in debt.

"Thailand Lost" loan 1.1 million.

"The Happy Past of Lao Ma's Family" loaned 3500 million.

"Painted Skin 2" loan 3000 million

"Edge of Tomorrow" borrowed 8000 million.

"The Legend of Zhen Huan" borrowed 5000 million.

This is 3 million owed to the bank, plus the 210 million owed to the bank for the 3.3 houses, Tang An now owes the bank a total of 6.3 million.

Sure enough, the bigger and more successful the business, the more money you owe.

If you owe it, you owe it, and the banks are eager to owe more. If you take the group as a loan, it's hard to say 10 billion, but 5 million can be 100% loaned, and the major banks are rushing to deliver it to you.

To owe money is to be an uncle, how good it feels to be an uncle.

Also, the Overseas Distribution Department has almost been established, and Chen Guofu is looking for a candidate for the head of the department.

But this is just an empty shell, with no overseas distribution capabilities, and is mainly responsible for contacting some low-cost movies and high-quality adaptation projects.

"Then let's go ahead and get busy."

"Zhou Li will ask Xu Zheng to come and prepare a check for 850 million!"
