Chapter 812 Sending Money
The applause in the gymnasium did not stop for a long time. Accompanied by the warm applause, there were excited discussions from the audience.

"It's too hot, there is no pee point in the whole process, I have been waiting for a relatively flat plot, ready to go to the bathroom, but I didn't wait, it suffocated me!"

"Although there are no particularly large-scale war scenes, the war scenes are too real and shocking."

"The war is too cruel, and I feel very uncomfortable when I see Shi Shi die, even though I know this is just a movie!"

"It's just so tragic in the movie. I don't know what will happen in the real war and the evacuation of overseas Chinese some time ago. It must be more cruel!"

"It's just too bloody, it's a bit uncomfortable to watch, and nauseating, but it's more real this way."

No one was surprised that the enthusiastic discussion from the audience spread to the front row.

Which of Tang An's previous movies did not have a good box office and word-of-mouth success, not to mention that after watching the movie, these industry insiders have to admit that "Operation Red Sea" is indeed a good movie.

Facing the audience's applause, Tang An and the actors got up and went on stage again.

"Thank you, thank you for liking the movie "Operation Red Sea"."

Tang An expressed his thanks on stage, and the host also praised it.

Chatted with the host and the audience, and briefly accepted an interview with the reporter.

They only played one episode, and they still need time to think about the topic of the movie itself. After all, they have been fighting the whole time, and after watching it, they have no other thoughts for a while.

Then the topic brought up the topic of 40 billion again. The reporter seemed to be more interested in this topic, and also expected Tang An to be slapped in the face.

But even if it breaks 40 billion, it is something worthy of special mention. No matter what, reporters will not be short of news.

40 billion, the audience in the audience, actors and filmmakers in the industry were once again filled with emotion.

Both Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yimou came. As the two top box office directors in the past, seeing Tang An moving towards the goal of 40 billion, I felt very uncomfortable.

The two of them don't even have a movie with a box office of one billion. After so many years, the gap is not usually big.

But Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, Wu Jing, Wu Ershan, Deng Chao and others were indeed full of expectations.

It was Tang An who ushered in the billion-dollar era of domestic films. Only after "Edge of Tomorrow" did movies break the billion mark one after another.

And Tang An has always been a benchmark in the mainland market. He broke the one billion mark and heated up the market, followed by other films breaking one billion.

Then it was another 15 billion, and "Detective Chinatown 2" reached it.

Although no one has achieved the 20 billion level, it will be sooner or later.

Now Tang An hit another 40 billion. Once this figure is broken, it will take less than two years for other people to make 40 billion movies.

Taking a step back, even if there is no 40 billion, as long as it catches up with Tang An's last movie with a box office of 24 billion, it will be a huge fortune, enough to make anyone's heart beat.

The new generation of directors who have emerged in recent years are even more aggressive than Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yimou.

They are young, and for the industry of directors, they have achieved such a great success, which is also the reason for their confidence.

The other is the results. Ning Hao's "Heart Blossoming on the Road" broke 12 billion, Wu Ershan won a box office of one billion two years ago, Xu Zheng's two consecutive films broke one billion, and Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior" is less than [-] million. [-] million, but it is also a huge success to win [-] million box office with a small modern military film.

Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou, and Brother Chen Kai have all been worn out in the past few years. Not only were Tang An far behind in the box office, these rising stars also beat their seniors to death on the beach.

Now they still maintain the idea of ​​chasing Tang An, more because they are not convinced. After all, they were better than Tang An ten years ago.
With such a sigh of relief, they still maintain their fighting spirit and confidence, but after two more pounces, this little spirit will be gone.

Not only the executives of several major companies and some directors, but also the celebrities who were invited to come here all had glowing eyes, envious.

These days, when they get to a certain position, they start to use their fame to start various companies to make money. Almost all the first-line stars have half of the capital, and no one has more than a dozen companies under their banner.

As long as the reputation is enough, taking advantage of the opportunity for capital to enter the market, and enjoying the dividends of the rapid development of the industry, everyone will earn a lot of money.

In the Mesozoic Era, Wang Xiaoming is one of the most successful businesses. His more than 40 companies cover various industries. Last month, his investment company raised [-] million yuan, planning to invest heavily in the film and television industry.

"Having been busy for a whole year, it's not as good as half the profit of Tang Dong's movie."

Wang Xiaoming was filled with emotion, exhausting dozens of companies, involving more than ten industries, but not making much money.

It's not even as profitable as Deng Chao. Relying on the Han and Tang Dynasties, Deng Chao expanded his original studio into a comprehensive film and television company, opened several companies by himself, and even acted as a director to make films by himself.

Wang Xiaoming, who was the first to turn to capital, sometimes wondered what would happen now if he left with Tang An.

But it was just thinking about it. Given the situation at the time, Deng Chao had no choice but to leave.

"How about I change careers and become a director?"

Huang Xiaoming looked at the three directors Xu Zheng, Deng Chao, and Wu Jing who had changed careers beside him, envious, and suddenly had this idea in his heart.

The box office of a film is 4000-[-] million, and the cost is [-]-[-] million. Even if half of the profit is divided, it can still earn [-] million, which is much better than opening so many companies.

Once this idea appeared in my mind, I couldn't shake it off.

Wang Baoqiang didn't even go to film school, if he can be a director, then he must be too.

Thinking about it again, the films of Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang both sold [-] million with a guaranteed guarantee, which means they can earn tens of millions before starting the film.

Money is getting better and better, and more and more people want to make more money.

The cross-industry directors have all succeeded. Even He Jiong's "Gardenia Blossoms" sold nearly [-] million yuan. Although the guarantee of the drama film is still tens of millions, this figure is considered a success.

What's more, before that, the movies that He Jiong and the happy family participated in were synonymous with bad movies, such as "Xiyouji", which were all sold well, and it was really like picking up money.

Those who are incompetent can't make money through exhaustion, and those who are capable are really just picking up money.

At the banquet that followed, someone gave Tang An money.

"10 million to buy [-]% of the box office revenue, Mr. Shi is really generous."

Tang An looked at Shi Jianxiang who took the initiative to approach him, and smiled playfully.

"Haha, Director Tang's movie is definitely worth the money. I wonder if Director Tang would like it?"

Shi Jianxiang smiled proudly, I look like I'm not short of money, and I'm still making money with you.

Tang An shook his head secretly. If "Operation Red Sea" gets 40 billion at the box office, after deducting the publicity cost and distribution share, the producer's share will be more than 12 billion, and 10% is more than 1.2 million. It is the box office share, which is already a premium of 166%.

Money is so easy to come by, Tang An also knows how Shi Jianxiang will operate, nothing more than to make profits through the stock market and P2P small loan platform, and he has to pay seven or eight hands, and even the 10% is estimated to have to be distributed layer by layer.

It's too easy to make money. As long as Tang An is willing, with such a large share of the movie, divide it into 2% - 5% and sell it. At least it will be easy to earn hundreds of millions more.

However, Tang An is not short of cash now, and several companies have been listed in turn.

Even if you are short of money, you won't accept this kind of money. It's so simple to find a real estate company to cooperate with live entertainment projects, sell licenses, [-] million each, and dividends.

"Thank you, Boss Shi, for your kindness, but I'll forget about the sales revenue. I don't have that idea." Tang An refused with a smile.

Shi Jianxiang was not surprised. He was honest and honest once in business, and then said sincerely, "How about 2.2 million, I really hope to cooperate with Tang Dong."

Tang An shook his head, "It's not about the money. I don't have this idea. President Shi should look for other movies. Director Zhang's "The Great Wall" has a large investment and a strong lineup, and Director Chen's "Legend of the Demon Cat" is also very promising. You can always try it."
