Support Chinese-language films, return ten times the losses

"Hello, Mr. Tang!"

Beside Gong Li, a middle-aged man looked at Tang Jinshan with eager eyes.

His eyes seemed to have discovered gold.

"Mr. Tang, this is Director Sun Zhou."

Gong Li introduced them.

"Oh, it's Director Sun Zhou! Hello, hello!"

Tang Jinshan suddenly realized.

Upon seeing Sun Zhou in person, I suddenly realized I vaguely recognized him.

He apparently played the villain who wanted to live forever in "The Myth".

The entertainment industry is indeed a small world!

Gong Li was just about to find a place for the two of them to have a detailed talk when a rough voice came from behind.

It was someone I knew.

"Boss Tang, I'm so glad to finally meet you! You're really handsome, even more so than I was in my youth!"

Jiang Wen walked over with a bright smile on her face.

He clasped Tang Jinshan's hands together with great enthusiasm.

"Director Jiang, thank you for coming to support us."

"Of course I want to come and learn from such a grand event."

As a disciple of the compound, Jiang Wen was very familiar with Han Shanping, Hua Yi, and others.

He is even acquainted with some people in the Hong Kong entertainment circle.

In "In the Heat of the Sun," Wenjuan recruited investors, and the film reels were all produced there.

Now that Li An has returned to China and made such a big fuss, how could he not come and see?

A $15 million production, which translates to over 100 million.

As a fellow director, he was so envious his teeth ached.

The title of "international director" is really useful!

Unlike me, who keeps trying but can't attract any investment.

He didn't come for Li An today, but for Tang Jinshan!

"Mr. Tang, we need to discuss something."

He directly abducted Tang Jinshan and took him away.

Faced with this unexpected challenge, Sun Zhou and Gong Li exchanged bewildered glances.

Soon, Tang Jinshan knew what Jiang Wen was planning to do.

He clearly came prepared, even bringing the script for "Devils on the Doorstep".

Tang Jinshan frowned as he looked at the storyboard drawing of the stick figure.

"Jiang Wen, how can you be like this? Shouldn't we follow the order of arrival?"

Gong Li and Sun Zhou also came in.

The two had worked together on "Red Sorghum" and were very familiar with each other.

She understood why Jiang Wen had come.

This is an attempt to hijack the deal!

"What do you mean by 'first come, first served'?"

Jiang Wen looked at Sun Zhou next to Gong Li and suddenly seemed to understand something.

Holy crap, is this another attempt to attract investment?

They are competitors!

He retorted sharply, "What kind of logic is that? Of course, we invest in whoever's movie is better!"

"Even if your movie is good, it wouldn't be unable to attract investment for several years."

This reckless scoundrel only knows how to bully Sun Zhou.

Why do you think his script is better than Sun Zhou's?

After he finished filming "In the Heat of the Sun," he became famous both at home and abroad.

The domestic box office reached as high as 5000 million.

If he can't even attract investment, it shows how difficult it is to come up with a script.

"Ahem, everyone, stop arguing. Everyone gets a share, everyone gets a share."

Tang Jinshan quickly tried to stop the discordant atmosphere.

It's not worth it for a little money.

"I've read the script for Director Sun's 'Pretty Mom' these past few days. It's a very touching story and a very meaningful film. I'm very interested in investing in it."

He reassured Sun Zhou and Gong Li.

"Mr. Tang, thank you so much!"

Sun Zhou was so moved that he burst into tears.

As rumored, Mr. Tang is indeed generous and likes to invest in good movies.

I must not let him down!

However, he didn't even dare to guarantee that he wouldn't lose money.

Tang Jinshan himself probably understood this, but he still invested generously.

He was even more moved!

Jiang Wen was about to speak when Tang Jinshan interrupted him.

"Director Jiang, your film 'Devils on the Doorstep' was also very good. You seem to have a lot of ideas for filming. But I'd be happy to invest in movies about fighting the Japanese!"

A film about fighting the Japanese invaders can win the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, which is obviously a sign of its high quality.

Moreover, if I remember correctly, Jiang Wen submitted his film to a film festival without passing domestic censorship, resulting in the film being banned and Jiang Wen being banned as well.

That's good.

Selling copyrights overseas is cheaper and faster.

There's nothing easier!

"Mr. Tang, are you serious? You truly live up to your reputation, Mr. Tang, so generous!"

Jiang Wen's rough voice was filled with excitement.

As Gong Li said, he had been trying to secure investment for a long time in order to make "Devils on the Doorstep".

Unexpectedly, the problem was solved immediately by Tang Jinshan.

It was worth coming prepared today!

Moreover, he invested in two films in a row without batting an eye.

This guy is really showing off his wealth!

The scene instantly became harmonious.

Gong Li was deeply moved as she watched Tang Jinshan generously donate.

Tang Jinshan's passion for film surpasses even theirs.

Moreover, it's backed by real money.

Is he really not afraid of losing everything like before?

I heard he lost a lot of money before, but made hundreds of millions by investing in stocks.

Then came another series of spending sprees.

Several films made to commemorate national patriotic occasions, his own film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," and now he has invested in Jiang Wen's "Devils on the Doorstep" and Sun Zhou's "Pretty Mom."

There's also a TV series called "Chinese Hero" in Hong Kong...

She had never met anyone like him before.

This is probably what it truly means to regard money as dirt, and to do what you love!

The opening ceremony was held quickly, and a bunch of reporters were interviewing.

The scene was incredibly lively.

Tang Jinshan, Li An, and others were bombarded with questions from reporters.

Li Lianjie also did not escape this fate.

He was also kept being asked by reporters about his relationship with Lizhi.

After the press conference, Tang Jinshan continued to work with Jiang Wen and Sun Zhou to finalize the matter.

The budget for "Devils on the Doorstep" was 2000 million.

Jiang Wen is known for wasting a lot of film stock when making movies, so he wants to see how the effective cost will be determined.

The budget for "Pretty Mom" ​​was 800 million, which is much less.

There's no need to overthink it.

"President Tang."

As soon as Rosamund Kwan entered, she saw Tang Jinshan throwing money around again.

She came today too, and greeted Gong Li when she saw her.

They had previously filmed "The Hegemon-King of Western Chu" together.

However, Tang Jinshan and Gong Li have recently become very close.

She needs to be careful.

As for Gong Li having a husband, that has never been an obstacle.

"Director Jiang, it seems your movie has a project in the works?"

When Han Shanping saw Jiang Wen and Tang Jinshan together, he guessed about 70-80% of the truth.

"Of course, Boss Tang is very generous, unlike you guys who are stingy."

Jiang Wen had naturally contacted the Beijing Film Studio.

Unfortunately, the Beijing Film Studio was also poor and had to produce films as tributes to the nation.

"Fine, then don't ever step in front of my Beijing Film Studio again."

Han Shanping said irritably.

Ignoring the jerk, he turned to Tang Jinshan: "Mr. Tang, tomorrow is National Day, would you be interested in staying and having a look?"

"Great! I've been wanting to experience the local customs and culture of China. I've heard that the flag-raising ceremony is spectacular, and I'd like to see it too."

Tang Jinshan laughed.

"That's great."

Han Shanping looked around and saw Xu Qing and Li Xiaoran.

"Since you two are both from Beijing, you should act as our representatives and properly entertain General Manager Tang and Ms. Rosamund Kwan, understand?"

Han Shanping said.

These are all valuable for united front work, so he naturally has to try to win them over.

"Yes, Director Han!"

Xu Qing and Li Xiaoran both happily accepted the mission.

This opportunity was completely unexpected for them!
