Huang Zhongjun thinks so and does so.

At the beginning of the film, Huang Zhongjun and Feng Xiaogang sat together to talk about the script, and they were deeply moved from the characters to the story.

But when considering the market, both have deep concerns at the same time.

The movie "Assembly" requires the scheduling of many war scenes, and the grandeur of the picture means that the capital has to pay the corresponding price.

In addition, the mainstream blockbuster themes at this time are all costume dramas, and whether war films can have market appeal is a question mark in everyone's hearts.

Obviously, it was Huang Zhongjun who made the final decision.

In order to dispel Feng Xiaogang's doubts, Huang Zhongjun also encouraged him to say: "For this play, I will admit 20%. ”

In fact, what Feng Xiaogang didn't know was that Huang Zhongjun had secretly borrowed 50 million from the bank at that time.

Therefore, Lin Weidong was able to take out 10 million to support the movie "Assembly", and Huang Zhongjun was full of gratitude and respect for Lin Weidong.

After returning to the capital from Hangzhou, Huang Zhongjun found friends from all walks of life and collected more than 10 million.

There is no way, domestic war films have never been favored, and Huang Zhongjun originally planned to spend 100 million yuan to shoot the movie "Assembly".

As a result, Huang Zhongjun begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother, but only raised more than 70 million in total.

Although the funds were not enough, Huang Zhongjun was embarrassed and spoke to Lin Weidong again.

Huang Zhongjun thought in his heart, no matter what, he had to shoot "The Assembly", and moreover, he had to make it a classic.

It can also be seen from here that Huang Zhongjun's investment in movies and TV series is definitely not just for money, he is a movie with pursuit.

As early as 2005, director Kang Honglei took the script of "Soldier Assault" and waited for nearly 2 years, but was rejected by countless investors.

When Huang Zhongjun was found, in less than half an hour, Wang Zhongjun made a slap, shoot!

After the launch of "Soldier Assault", there was almost no female character and no star in the whole play, but it unexpectedly achieved a sensational effect.

This TV series, which is considered one of the best military-themed works in the dust of history, has also pushed Huayi Brothers to a high position.

Behind a series of film and television works, Huang Zhongjun has his own thinking, he is not simply intoxicated with the role of a businessman.

The pursuit of art is his original intention in the film industry, and it is also the key to his current reach.

In contrast, Lin Weidong seems to be worldly, whether it is the creation of Century Games Company or Century Blog Company, it is purely to make money.

Moreover, after returning from the Jiangnan Association in Hangzhou, Lin Weidong also followed the example of Ma Xiaoyun and Huang Zhongjun, and hired six retired special forces as bodyguards through the relationship between the local government and the military.

Just take precautions, Lin Weidong still cherishes his life, and he now has the financial ability.

Spending two or three hundred thousand yuan a month to hire six bodyguards is not a difficult task for Lin Weidong.

Generally speaking, a minimum size bodyguard team requires at least three people, because the main perspective of the human eye is only 120 degrees, and three people can complete a 360-degree surround vigilance.

Therefore, Lin Weidong divided them into two teams, and every three people took turns every other day.

However, most of the time, Lin Weidong will stay in the company and basically don't go out much.

Moreover, when Lin Weidong went to Chen Liling's house or Liu Limin's house for the night, they were almost all waiting downstairs.

June 28, morning.

Ma Xiaoyun, accompanied by Lin Weidong, came to Sheshan Golf Course.

Surrounding Lin Weidong and Ma Xiaoyun were their respective bodyguards.

Ma Xiaoyun was in it, looking at the green carpet-like fairway, the white sand pit, the winding lane, the streamlined ups and downs, and the pleasing drop, he couldn't help but sigh: "Weidong, the environment here is good, it is very suitable for moving muscles!"

Lin Weidong smiled and nodded: "Of course." ”

Without waiting for Ma Xiaoyun to answer, Lin Weidong continued: "Teacher Ma, you may not know that Tiger Tiger Woods also came here last year. ”

Ma Xiaoyun asked incredulously, "Is it Woods, nicknamed Tiger?"

Lin Weidong replied: "Yes, it's him." ”

Ma Xiaoyun nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "Is it difficult to join the club here?"

Lin Weidong said calmly: "It's not difficult, as long as you spend 1 million, you can join the membership." ”

After listening to Lin Weidong's words, Ma Xiaoyun said solemnly: "Then I will also join one, and I will come here to play when I have time in the future." ”

Lin Weidong smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll let someone handle it for you, and the quota may be full later." ”

After chatting a few words on the court, Lin Weidong and Ma Xiaoyun began to play.

Ma Xiaoyun's golf ball was very bad, the colored ball was on the tee, and he didn't hit it twice.

The third time, Ma Xiaoyun finally hit the ball, and the colored ball rolled all the way along the green fairway, and then like a dumb bullet, it clicked in the long grass a hundred meters away.

However, the poor start did not affect Ma Xiaoyun's mood to play.

Originally, Ma Xiaoyun only planned to play 9 holes, but it may be because of the high interest with Lin Weidong and he played 18 holes.

Although he couldn't get the hole in the left and right on the green, he seemed to ignore it completely.

After going through a lot of hard work to hit the ball into the hole, Ma Xiaoyun smiled and Lin Weidong and went to the club's red wine and cigar bar to rest.

Ma Xiaoyun took a sip of red wine and asked with interest: "Weidong, have you dealt with Tencent's Ma Huateng?

Lin Weidong said calmly: "I know the name Ma Huateng, but I haven't seen it in real people." ”

Ma Xiaoyun nodded, and then said: "I have met him a few times, and he almost became a shareholder of our Alibaba. ”

It turned out that as early as 2003, domestic Internet e-commerce was in the ascendant, Liu Qiangdong and Jingdong were in their infancy, and Taobao had just been established and launched.

At that time, Ma Huateng once talked to Ma Xiaoyun about Taobao and Internet e-commerce.

For Tencent Group at that time, with the growth of QQ users, it had the ability to invest 15% of the shares.

However, on the one hand, because Ma Huateng is not very optimistic about Internet e-commerce, on the other hand, Ma Huateng hopes to account for about 50% of the shares, which is obviously not acceptable to Ma Xiaoyun.

As a result, the investment fell through.

In this way, Ma Huateng and Alibaba missed out.

After learning about this past, Lin Weidong was also secretly glad in his heart, fortunately, Ma Xiaoyun and Ma Huateng did not cooperate.

Because in Lin Weidong's view, the future of the Internet will be the world of Tencent, Century, and Alibaba.

As for Li Yanhong's ferry, Lin Weidong does not pay attention to it, this is a company with no moral bottom line, and it does not have the same pattern as Tencent and Alibaba.

Maybe one day in the future, Century may cooperate with Tencent, but Lin Weidong also knows very well that he, Ma Huateng and Ma Xiaoyun, will become competitors sooner or later.

Therefore, when Lin Weidong communicated with Ma Xiaoyun, he also paid attention to it, and he only kept a lot of information about the future Internet trends in his heart and did not confess to Ma Xiaoyun.

Ma Xiaoyun knows everything, and will tell Lin Weidong any wonderful ideas, including his views on the future of the Internet.

Of course, Ma Xiaoyun is not a fool, he knows what he can say and what he can't say.

Moreover, some words came out of his mouth, and Ma Xiaoyun himself didn't believe it.

After a glass of red wine, Ma Xiaoyun then asked: "Weidong, what do you think of Huayi's listing?

Lin Weidong said bluntly: "I think it's worth it, if we have the first listed film and television company in Huaguo, it must be Huayi Brothers." ”

Ma Xiaoyun nodded sympathetically: "Among so many private film and television companies, Huayi Brothers is indeed the most famous, but at the same time, after the film and television company goes public, whenever Huayi has a little news, such as scandals and scandals of artists, it will affect Huayi's stock price." ”

"So I also told the Chinese army, if you want to go public, you can't do it, but you can't just me and Wei Dong, you have to find two or three more bigwigs to help us share the risk. ”

Lin Weidong took a puff of his cigar and said, "Mr. Ma, I listen to you about investing in Huayi, how many shares you take, I will take a little less than you, what do you think?"

Ma Xiaoyun also heard the meaning of Lin Weidong's words, and said: "Weidong, don't worry about this, everyone earns money together, I won't invest more, mainly to help friends." ”

"If it weren't for the fact that the Chinese army had been looking for me and asked me to help him find a way to get Huayi listed, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to it. ”

Although Ma Xiaoyun said it very sincerely, Lin Weidong didn't believe that he was telling the truth.
