Smuggler of Two Worlds

“Investment? Me?”

Jiang Fan pointed at himself in astonishment. For Zhang Dongjie’s sudden proposal, he was not prepared enough.

“Yes, don’t worry about the issue of distribution, Little Fan. I still have this face. As long as it’s my movie, when the time comes, the resources of the theater can get the maximum amount. . Now the only problem is funding.”

Zhang Dongjie was embarrassed and laughed, and then said: “As you know, this “World’s First” is determined to cost 150 million US dollars. Calculated by the exchange rate, it is already the most expensive movie in domestic film history. So even if it is my name, the investors themselves are still a little hesitant and think that the risk is too great.”

“150 million US dollars The basic investment of the film, plus the inevitably additional promotional expenses in the later period, almost guarantees that the film itself has a domestic box office of three billion in order to not lose money. But the box office of three billion…how difficult? So investors think the risk is too great, and it is real. It’s normal.”

“To be honest, if it weren’t for the face of my face, such a large investment would simply not be possible. So strictly speaking of which, 150 million US dollars , It is the limit I can achieve.”

Speaking of which, Zhang Dongjie looked at Jiang Fan, with a helpless expression on his face.

Then said: “Originally, according to the initial cost calculation, 150 million US dollars is basically enough. Even if the final special effects investment is increased, new funds need to be added, it will not be More than tens of millions of dollars, 150 million is paid, and another 10 million is paid, and investors are no longer willing to pinch their noses.”

“Of course, this is Many directors’ unwritten rules require less budget. In the process of filming, additional costs are added. Basically, the final cost of the filming will be a little higher than the original budget, but it will not exceed too much, so this unwritten The rules are also the default rules in the circle.”

“But this time…Because Little Fan, your appearance is so amazing, which led to my ambitions for this movie being enlarged. I want to. Shooting a real classic has caused the shooting cost to rise dramatically, which is beyond reasonable scope.”

Zhang Dongjie sighed, continued: “Of course, these are my own problems. But if the money is not enough, it will be difficult to continue filming the movie. This is no way. After this month of running-in, you should know what my working style is.”

” Basically, all of this money is spent on the knife edge, and it is not wasted randomly. So now I can only find ways to continue to find new investors and pull in new investments. The contract terms for filming were originally set up, and I have added a supplement Agreement.”

“If there is a shortage of funds during the filming process, new investors need to be introduced. Then the new investors can enjoy what the original investors can enjoy according to the investment scale The same rights, so in terms of income, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Jiang Fan blinked.

He knows that Zhang Dongjie’s crew consumes extremely quickly.

Especially in this month, Zhang Dongjie adjusted the shooting plan several times. In order to constantly adapt to his performance, he kept changing the original shooting plan.

Each change will actually cause excessive consumption of funds.

Because of these changes, they are not included in the original cost accounting.

In order for the film to have a better presentation and to make the film itself more perfect, Zhang Dongjie made such a decision without any hesitation.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhang Dongjie is indeed a workaholic character, and in the set, he is a stand by one’s word tyrant character.

Under his control and scheduling of the whole movie, even in a very unexpected situation like Jiang Fan, it still progresses extremely fast.

If it were not for Zhang Dongjie’s excellent director ability, Jiang Fan felt that the cost of this crew would be even one third higher than it is now.

It is precisely because of the recognition of Zhang Dongjie’s ability that the entire crew has always been one-hearted during this month, and the work efficiency has always been maintained at a super high standard.

Even after the shots, Jiang Fan hasn’t seen it yet, but Jiang Fan has full confidence in Zhang Dongjie.

In this movie, as long as Zhang Dongjie thinks it is a qualified lens, it must have reached the perfect level!

Such a movie, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to lose money. Even if the cost is very high, the profit point required is somewhat exaggerated.

So… it doesn’t seem to be bad if you invest?

After pondering, Jiang Fan opened the mouth and said: “Brother Zhang, if I invest, how much money do you think should be invested to complete the production of this movie?”

Listening to Jiang Fan’s refusal, Zhang Dongjie couldn’t help but relaxed and said quickly: “I did a very detailed cost calculation last night. Due to the special effects, the results I hope to achieve are better than the initial requirements. There is another improvement, so the investment in special effects will also increase a lot.”

“The final estimate is that as long as an additional investment of 100 million US dollars, this movie can be produced. This cost, Including follow-up promotional expenses, so the total cost can be controlled within 250 million US dollars.”

250 ​​million US dollars?

Jiang Fan fell into thinking again.

Because of joining this crew, Jiang Fan has really made up some things in the movie circle during this month.

Naturally, it is clear what the cost of 250 million US dollars means.

There are not a few big investment films in this World, and the most expensive film is even close to 400 million US dollars.

And there are many examples of big investment movies at the box office.

It is not uncommon for the top executives of the eight major Hollywood film companies to take the blame and resign because of investment failures.

Even the box office rush of a movie directly drove a certain movie Giant level company into bankruptcy and reorganization. It all happened.

So investing in movies also means huge risks.

Hundreds of millions of dollars of investment, once a serious loss, then even the eighth Hollywood level, it is difficult to bear.

Not to mention how exaggerated such an amount is in the country.

At least the investment record of domestic films is only 150 million US dollars.

That movie was also directed by the top domestic film directors. The cast was luxurious. As a result, the box office was dismal, and investors who lost money were eager to jump off the building.

It is conceivable that on this basis, the cost is actually more than 100 million US dollars. For the original investor of the film “World’s First”, is it huge? Frightened.

I will refuse the follow-up investment, hoping that Zhang Dongjie will use the money now to make the movie. It is normal.

But for Jiang Fan, the movie itself is not profitable.

As long as the film is truly perfect, it is actually a good deal for him to use this film to further expand his influence.

So after pondering for a while, Jiang Fan opened the mouth and said: “Director Zhang, I will not give you an additional 100 million dollars in investment.”

Zhang Dongjie’s face suddenly turned It’s darkened, but I can understand Jiang Fan’s thoughts.

After all…the risk is too big…

“I will give you 150 million US dollars, an extra 50 million. I hope this movie can truly Achieving perfection.”

Jiang Fan tone barely fell, Zhang Dongjie stood up suddenly, the boss staring at him.

Screamed: “How much did you say?!”
