Support Chinese-language films, return ten times the losses
7. I'm from Kingsoft, not from Pocket Mountain!
"How much do you think it would cost to make this movie?"
Tang Jinshan asked.
"Ten million?"
Yang Fan tentatively opened his mouth.
Setting a higher price makes it easier to negotiate a better deal.
"Can we even make a movie with so little money? If we're going to do it, we should do it the best we can!"
Okay, I'll give you 20 million. I want the best costumes, props, and sets, and the best photography and lighting teams too!
Tang Jinshan said with a frown.
A mere 1000 million is nothing; isn't this a waste of his time?
"Twenty million?"
Yang Fan was initially worried that asking for too high a price would scare people away, but Tang Jinshan immediately doubled the price!
They want the best of everything.
He finally witnessed firsthand how wealthy and powerful this young master was!
The rumors outside were indeed true!
The investment was finalized in the time it takes to eat a meal.
Yang Fan became even more excited.
As if afraid that Tang Jinshan would change his mind, he put in a lot of effort to push the project forward.
He's been holding onto this project, but he just can't find any investment.
With the funds in place, progress is very fast.
However, Tang Jinshan now has strict requirements and wants to create high-quality products.
Then he needs to redeploy.
There's also the matter of personnel selection.
Many people simply don't want to act in this kind of subject matter.
He screened a large number of people.
In this regard, he tactfully sought advice from Tang Jinshan.
Let him make the decision.
Maybe he'll find someone he likes?
Looking at his eyes, Tang Jinshan wanted nothing more than to slap him.
Damn it, I'm a righteous and passionate man, my mentality is perfectly normal, okay?
I came back from Jinshan, not from Brokeback Mountain!
However, he was quite particular about the selection of personnel.
Since I've invested my own money, I have to be very careful in vetting it.
Yang Fan's first contact was Feng Delun.
He was very happy to play such a role.
"And this one, Mr. Tang, what do you think? I wanted to cast him as Sam, but he's not willing. I've been trying to persuade him."
Yang Fan then took out several more photos, all of the same person.
Tang Jinshan took a look.
Oh, it's Grandma!
Tang Jinshan remembered that "Beautiful Boys" seemed to be A-Zu's debut film.
It is said that he was traveling back to Hong Kong from America and couldn't even speak Cantonese.
That's probably how Yang Fan pulled her into the circle.
I never expected this to happen.
Then he looked at the other photos.
Then I saw an acquaintance.
Isn't this Teacher Chen?
Does he also want to act in this kind of movie?
Thinking about it, it seems pretty exciting?
Looking at Teacher Chen's roguish yet handsome face, an idea flashed through Tang Jinshan's mind like lightning.
By this time, Nicholas Tse should have already debuted, right?
He was an artist under Mani Fok's management at Fitto Records.
If they cast him as Chen Guanxi's co-star...
The scene is beautiful just to think about!
Great, these are the ones!
I'll lose a lot of money to make this moment etched in film history happen!
"Who is this?"
Tang Jinshan held up Teacher Chen's photo and asked a question he already knew the answer to.
"His name is Chen Guanxi. He's a guy who makes movies and TV shows. He wants to try his luck in the entertainment industry and is very willing to give it a shot."
Moreover, his father has many investments in the entertainment industry. If you help his son, you might even do him a favor.
Yang Fan introduced the exhibits enthusiastically.
"Okay, he's the one!"
Tang Jinshan made the decision directly.
Since Teacher Chen wants to try, of course we should give him a chance!
He continued, "Let's cast Nicholas Tse for the role of Sam! Isn't he Xie Xian's son? He's quite good-looking, and like Chen Guanxi, he's a rich second-generation. I believe they'll have a lot in common."
Tang Jinshan wasn't making things up; they had been friends for many years.
We are still kindred spirits.
"Xie Xian's son? He seems to be a singer, is that suitable?"
"What's inappropriate about it? It all depends on your skill as a director. Wasn't Wu Yanzu, the guy you cast before, also a newcomer?"
Tang Jinshan said unhappily.
If you don't even have this much skill, what's the point of having you as a director?
He wouldn't allow his grand plan to be ruined.
"What if he disagrees?"
Yang Fan still prefers Wu Yanzu.
"You can handle this yourself. If you can't, I'll pay more. Besides, his dad went bankrupt, right? You can take a roundabout approach."
I believe Xie Xian would be very happy to see his son enter the film industry and follow in his footsteps.
Tang Jinshan said.
"Okay, I'll give it a try."
Yang Fan nodded.
Finding Xie Xian is indeed much easier.
Who doesn't know that he sold his 15-year-old son to Yinghuang to pay off his debts?
For money, this kind of person will do anything.
"It's not just a try, it's a certainty!"
Tang Jinshan had no other choice.
He was really looking forward to this moment!
Years later, audiences will surely be very grateful for the valuable legacy he left to film history.
This is where the value of investing lies!
Besides, Chen Guanxi and Xie Tingfeng should thank me for bringing them into the entertainment industry!
Yang Fan nodded again.
It seems that whether the investment can be truly implemented depends on Nicholas Tse!
He just couldn't figure out this young master Tang Jinshan.
Foreign countries are more open-minded. He spent so much money and specifically requested Nicholas Tse. I wonder if he had any special requests?
Should we say something to Nicholas Tse?
What if I don't do it well enough?
Never mind, since the boss didn't hint at it, I'll just pretend I don't know.
We'll talk about the future another day.
If Tang Jinshan knew his filthy thoughts, he would slap him across the face.
Yang Fan quickly got busy.
To his surprise, Yinghuang was also planning to let Xie Tingfeng enter the film and television industry.
Developing both singing and acting skills.
They even planned to fund a new Young and Dangerous movie, casting Nicholas Tse as Chan Ho-nam.
Isn't this a coincidence?
Upon learning that someone had approached Nicholas Tse to make a movie, Yang Shoucheng personally received him.
Now we can help Nicholas Tse without spending any money ourselves, so why not?
He had heard of Tang Jinshan's reputation long ago.
I never expected to become a beneficiary so quickly.
The key question is whether Nicholas Tse is willing to play such a role?
After reading the script, Nicholas Tse agreed to the role without much hesitation.
Making a gay porn movie would definitely be very "outrageous"!
It fits his rebellious and cool image perfectly.
Chen Guanxi quickly agreed.
From shooting gay porn to making movies, this is an opportunity that should definitely be seized!
Upon hearing this good news, Tang Jinshan drank a few more cups of wine.
I didn't expect to be able to form a team so easily.
Excited to think about it!
Yang Fan was still trying to persuade Azu.
"I think he has a good image. It's not easy to find a good prospect. How about this, you tell him that if he has the idea of entering the entertainment industry, I will help him more in the future if there is an opportunity."
Tang Jinshan said.
In that case, Kansai, Tingfeng, and Azu would all debut in the same movie.
This is going to be even more interesting!
"Okay, I will convey Mr. Tang's goodwill to him."
Yang Fan felt even more confident in persuading Wu Yanzu.
There is one more supporting character with a significant role.
She is a male escort named A Qing, and also the "first love" of the character played by Nicholas Tse.
But later, Ah Sam fell in love with someone else and was abandoned.
Yang Fan actually wanted to give the role to Feng Delun.
After all, he was the one who initially agreed to join.
Now that the main character is gone, a supporting character has to be provided.
