Chapter 997: An Unexpected Surprise

Zhou Xingxing contacted them first, but as a result, if Ye Ming participated in a movie performance, there is nothing to say, who made Zhou Xingxing take a fancy to Ye Ming's acting skills.

But if it is said that it is going to be invested, then at this time, it is still said that they want Huayi to invest? But Ye Ming directly intervened and invested in this movie.

Later, Wang Zhongjun also knew the reason why Ye Ming was able to invest in Zhou Xingxing's movie, at this time, Wang Zhongjun scolded and directly smashed the teacup in his hand: "Shit luck." ”

If it weren't for the financial crisis in Europe, Ye Ming wouldn't have had any chance to invest in Zhou Xingxing's films. But everything was too late, Ye Ming and Zhou Xingxing cooperated, and no one could stop this from happening.

After signing the contract, Zhou Xingxing had a long talk with Ye Ming, and the purpose of this conversation was actually a process of selecting actors.

Zhou Xingxing said bluntly: "Although the financial situation of the crew is not optimistic, some money still cannot be saved, such as the selection of actors, which requires auditions, this is an opportunity to expand the influence of the movie."

The last movie, "The King of Comedy", was not screened in the mainland, which has to be said to be a failed experience, therefore, for my fans, they haven't seen my movie for a long time, I investigated, and my most influential movie was actually the big talk Journey to the West that made me almost bankrupt, which has to be said to be a great irony for me. ”

Journey to the West, the filming is too nonsensical, needless to say, the investment is big, but the script is too advanced. It's a little hard to understand what to say. Therefore, it is said that Journey to the West is Zhou Xingxing's most miserable movie, which is even more tragic than the king of comedy, and he is almost bankrupt at a loss. This must be something that no one denies.

Later, Zhou Xingxing didn't make a movie for several years, because of the influence of Journey to the West. The king of comedy said that he made money when he publicized it, although he didn't make money, but he didn't actually lose money, and he lost a lot of money when he talked about Journey to the West, with an investment of more than 60 million. At least 120 million to not lose money. And what is the box office of Journey to the West in the end, anyway, even if it is an official figure, it will not exceed 50 million, and it is the total box office of the two films.

In this case, the investor will not receive more than 30 million, at least 30 million losses. Moreover, Journey to the West is aimed at Chinese-speaking areas, and there is no market abroad, so there is no overseas market. Coupled with the surrounding area, the investors of Journey to the West only lose money.

It is said that around the port city of Treasure Island, which is about Journey to the West, that is, the income is less than 10 million, as for the mainland, are there genuine DVDs in the mainland?

It's all piracy, so Zhou Xingxing, as one of the investors, is a mess of the Westward Journey investors. After two years of busyness, he ended up losing at least 20 million.

Twenty million of ninety-six. That's almost the equivalent of 100 million yuan now.

Therefore, this movie is Zhou Xingxing's most classic, but it is also the worst. It wasn't until the Shaolin football player that Zhou Xingxing had the courage to become a producer again.

At this time, Ye Ming nodded and said: "The audition is indeed very attractive, and it is a good way to promote leaflets, and there is still no movie like this in the mainland." You've got a good start to the interior. ”

Zhou Xingxing said helplessly: "This is a good start, but it is indeed a loss of money, the audition also requires money, and we can't audition in a place in the mainland, therefore." The investment required will be more.

That's a lot of pressure on me. Fortunately, with you as an investor, the pressure has been relieved. ”

Zhou Xingxing naturally would not admit to outsiders that there was a problem with the crew's funds, otherwise it would affect the progress of the crew, but now Ye Ming is no longer an outsider, an investor, and his own person, so in such a situation, Zhou Xingxing told the truth, and did not mean to let Ye Ming pay.

Anyway, if the movie makes money, it is not that he makes money alone, and if he loses money, then Zhou Xingxing is not alone in losing money at such a time.

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, didn't Zhou Xingxing's audition have an investor before? Why haven't I heard him mention it until now, hasn't he found an investor? Last time, Zhou Xingxing's audition for Shaolin football players had sponsors.

Therefore, Ye Ming immediately said: "This matter is very simple, just find a sponsor, just rely on your popularity and fame, find a big enterprise in the mainland to cooperate, let them pay for your audition, how much money is needed for the audition, double, it is their naming fee, in this way, not only does it mean that the cost of the audition is solved, but also a part of the remainder, which can be used as the cost of the crew." ”

Zhou Xingxing said suspiciously: "In Hong Kong City, this kind of talent show is carried out by the crew at their own expense, and if you want to make it bigger, you have to pay for advertising, can you find a title sponsor for this kind of activity in the mainland?"

Zhou Xingxing expressed a certain degree of skepticism about this issue, after all, he said that in such a situation, there was no precedent for such a situation in Hong Kong City.

Ye Ming said very affirmatively: "There is absolutely no problem with this matter, Hong Kong City is Hong Kong City, Huaxia is Huaxia, the market is different, you can find a cooperative enterprise, and the economic development of the mainland is so fast beyond your imagination, there are many rich people, and there are many people who are willing to advertise, I believe that it will not be a family that can pay for the draft, there will always be people who are willing to pay, if you can rest assured, then I can recommend a few companies to you." ”

Zhou Xingxing immediately said overjoyed: "This relationship is good, but if it is a large company, a reputable large company, let alone a small company, I don't want to be scolded by consumers?"

Although Zhou Xingxing is sometimes greedy for money, stingy, and has a weird temper, it is undeniable that he still respects his fans and cherishes his reputation very much.

He can fall out with people in the circle one by one, but he won't fall out with his fans again.

Because Zhou Xingxing knows very well what his confidence is, that is, his fans, how many peers and directors he has offended in Hong Kong City. actors, screenwriters, and even film company owners.

But what can this be? As long as the fans still like Zhou Xingxing, as long as Zhou Xingxing's market appeal is still there, then in such a situation, others will not take Zhou Xingxing. Therefore, even if you choose to cooperate with a company. That also requires large enterprises to succeed, and small enterprises, even if they have money, cannot cooperate with them if they are given money.

Ye Ming nodded and said: "Naturally, it's a big business, help each other, they use your reputation to publicize, and you want the money they give, this is a two-pronged thing, Lehehe, this company is good." Recently, I am working on a new type of drink, and it is time to open up the market, and if you want to, I will let people match it. ”

At this time, Zhou Xingxing finally felt a little moved.

Nodding his head and saying, "This feeling is good, in a situation like this, I need someone to help me read this difficulty." ”

Hearing Zhou Xingxing nodding, Ye Ming was also very bold and told him that he could go to Fang Fang for this matter. As a confidant's agent, Sister Fang Fang is connected with many companies. Therefore. It shouldn't be a problem to make this happen.

Sure enough, when Zhou Xingxing heard Fang Fang's name, he had more expectations for the future at this time, Fang Fang had a wireless background, so in such a situation. Zhou Xingxing naturally felt a little cordial, after all, he said that he came out of the wireless station, so he was also very much looking forward to a cooperation.

Sister Fang Fang received a call from Zhou Xingxing's executive manager Fang Nan, and she was not ambiguous at all. directly contacted Lehehe Group and said that Zhou Xingxing's draft was looking for a title sponsor. This is also the heart of Zhengzhong Lehe Group.

In fact, their new drink was a blank in the market before, and in such a situation, not many people would refuse Zhou Xingxing's olive branch. Soon, everyone finalized the intention of cooperation, and the signing of the contract was also a grand ceremony, which opened the road of Zhou Xingxing's draft.

Wang Chan definitely didn't expect that at this time, he should have put his mind on the showdown between [Poor Happy Millionaire] and [Pearl Harbor], because this day is imminent, although he knows that Pearl Harbor is a tragic Waterloo, but no matter what it is, this matter, he still has to go all out to do this work.

Because many people in the country are waiting to see his jokes, if he says that he can't win this time, many people will fall into the ground.

Moreover, even if he goes all out, many media are the same movies that sing about Ye Ming.

It's not that the Huaxia media has the habit of black Ye Ming, on the contrary, the attitude of Ye Ming and the Huaxia media is very good, and under normal circumstances, most of the West China media will always be on Ye Ming's side.

But the last time was different, in a good situation, Ye Ming was facing a Hollywood blockbuster at this time, therefore, in such a matter, Ye Ming's own domestic films, and whether it was from the pitch, or from the star, or from the market influence, compared with the Hollywood production Pearl Harbor, there was no hope of victory at all.

Even some entertainment programs expressed a pessimistic attitude towards Ye Ming's battle.

If it weren't for the fact that Ye Ming was the ambassador of the Olympic bid, it is estimated that there would be more people in Hei Yeming. At this time, for Ye Ming's and the company, this is a huge pressure.

Ye Ming wanted to put on an all-out attitude, and such a thing would be a huge blow to those media and clamoring free commentators.

But at such a time, there is still a company that comes to the door, Yangcheng Pharmaceutical Group.

At this time, Sister Fang Fang was holding a piece of information from Yangcheng Pharmaceutical Group. State-owned enterprises, in the south, especially in the Pearl River Delta region, Yangcheng Pharmaceutical Group has a huge influence.

At this time, Sister Fang Fang said: "Yangcheng Group knows that you have joined Zhou Xingxing's movie, and has attracted investment from Lehehe Group for Zhou Xingxing, so I think you are interested in entering the beverage market. ”

Ye Ming immediately flashed a flash of lightning in his mind, Wang Jixiang, good guy, the most powerful herbal tea in the country, hasn't this officially started?

It seems that Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Wang Jixiang, their Yangcheng Pharmaceutical is a state-owned enterprise, can't they find a cooperative enterprise?"

Sister Fang said: "Sometimes, now Yangcheng Pharmaceutical Group has a cooperative enterprise, and they cooperate with a company called Jiabao in Gangcheng to develop Wang Jixiang herbal tea, but even in the Liangguang area, the sales are not very optimistic.

Therefore, their cooperation is not very pleasant, and it is said that in such a situation, as an adult, I actually don't like to drink herbal tea. ”

Wang Jixiang, plus baby. Sure enough, in such a situation, the history is strikingly similar, plus the baby still hooked up with Yangcheng Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and now they are estimated to be in the run-in period, not yet to the honeymoon period, let alone to the point of breaking up and getting divorced. It is very normal to have some problems during the run-in period.

Ye Ming immediately decided to say: "This thing is good, don't look for anyone else, go ask their price first, if it is the right price, then we will take it ourselves." ”

Sister Fang Fang was stunned for a moment, her eyes widened, and she said curiously: "Are we going to enter the beverage market?"

Ye Ming clenched his fists tightly, his heart was like 10,000 grass and mud horses passing through, Wang Jixiang, that is the largest enterprise in the future of China that almost won Coca-Cola. If it weren't for the villains of Yangcheng Group who went back on their word, it is estimated that they would be able to be the first in the industry now.

In fact, they did it in the first place.

If it was said that he didn't eat the fat that was delivered to his mouth, then Ye Ming felt that he was simply saying that he didn't clean it up.

Therefore, Ye Ming waved his hand, indicating that he had made up his mind: "Sister Fang Fang, you don't have to worry about this, you go and inquire about the authenticity of this matter first, if it is true, then we will do it in the future." Take it directly and do it yourself, and subcontract it to others. Anyway, you won't lose money. (To be continued......)
