Chapter 250: Human Favor
The investment is small, and what is handed over is a bad movie.
Bad movies have further reduced investment, making investment even less.
Today, 60 million is already a huge amount of money for Wanda.
In fact, you really can't blame Wanda.
Think about it, if it were you, who would you choose?
On the one hand, it is a sequel to the work that has been jeweled in the past, with a box office base of one billion evaluated by the industry.
On the other hand, it is the first hardcore sci-fi work of a twenty-four-year-old director, with an investment of more than 400 million.
There is no comparison between the two!
The former is obviously more potential, and the latter is purely a money laundering item!
Of course, there is no need to say much about the result.
After all, Wanda is not Ali.
Ali's Manager Sun can be said to be Peng Hui's iron fan, and Ma's father also knows that Peng Hui is such a young and talented rookie director.
So Ali naturally followed in Peng Hui's footsteps.
If it weren't for Peng Hui in the light before, Ali was not very easy to start, and I am afraid he would have poached people a long time ago.
Now that Peng Hui has set up a personal studio, Ali naturally wants to take a stake.
However, Peng Hui refused on the grounds that he just wanted to make a movie.
Strictly speaking, Peng Hui is a very pure director.
His experience doomed him to not be a shrewd businessman.
So he can't play with the set of capital.
He was also worried about what if he really became a slave to money.
At that time, was I still myself?
Although he loves money, he loves freedom even more.
I have to say that he is still too young.
For him, the proportion of money in life is not as real as fun and dreams.
In the past, Peng Hui entered the entertainment industry only because of fun.
Now, he has a less mature dream.
He wants to be the king of movies!
People, there must always be dreams, or what's the difference between them and salted fish?
This line in Xing Ye's "The King of Comedy" has always been Peng Hui's favorite very much.
I heard that Xing Ye is going to film "The King of New Comedy" recently?
Are you looking forward to it?
It's just a pity that Xing Ye can't appear in front of the camera anymore.
He's very old.
On the screen, it is already difficult to find a role suitable for him.
"Yangtze River No. 7" was the last work of Xing Ye on the screen.
It's also embarrassing.
Wanda's withdrawal, if you want to say that you are the happiest, it must be Ning Hao.
Is there anything more refreshing about suddenly having a share of investment funds when you are just about to increase your investment?
No!
So Ning Hao went to negotiate with Li Shanshan excitedly.
However, when I arrived at the place, I found that there was another person in the conference room.
Ali's manager Sun.
Ning Hao glanced at Li Shanshan.
"Director Ning, it's not that Peng Peng doesn't want to agree directly, but Manager Sun also proposed an investment that we can't refuse. Li Shanshan said with an embarrassed face.
Not easy to refuse?
If Peng Hui were here, he would definitely praise these four words for being used so well.
It's hard to refuse, that is, it's okay to refuse.
As long as you can invest more.
In fact, to be honest, at the beginning, although Ning Hao planned to increase investment, because he originally had an investment of 10 million, he only planned to invest another 5 million this time.
Obviously, in the face of Ali's Manager Sun, this person in the industry jokingly called "Peng Hui's brain lack of fans", it seems a little insignificant.
When Manager Sun saw Ning Hao, he heard that it was also an investment, where did he not know the reason?
However, Manager Sun didn't care, but smiled more and more sincerely: "Hello Director Ning, Miss Li, I heard that Wanda has withdrawn?
"Manager Sun, sixty million isn't a small number, right?" Ning Hao frowned slightly.
The implication of the words is, don't you need to ask the meaning of the above?
As far as he knows, Ali has already invested 100 million, and now he has invested another 60 million?
He is just a manager, and he is not the son of Ma's father, where does he have this right?
"This doesn't bother Ning Dao to worry about, it's only 60 million, if it weren't for Peng Peng...... Director Peng refused, and Ali thought about investing 200 million. Manager Sun said nonchalantly.
Ning Hao's face became ugly.
Can you do whatever you want if you have money?
If Manager Sun heard it, he would definitely smile and say: "That's right, you can do whatever you want if you have money!"
Since the two of them appear here together, naturally they will not let the two sides fall out.
In the end, after negotiation, Ali invested 40 million and Ning Hao invested 20 million, which can be regarded as a perfect takeover.
After Peng Hui heard about it, he also went to thank Manager Sun.
After all, 40 million is not a small number, and it also needs to be applied, and Manager Sun was able to invest at the first time, obviously under pressure.
This person is very favorable, and Peng Hui also specially invited Manager Sun to dinner.
Surprisingly, it was a roadside barbecue.
The Northeast big skewer is the kind of one that wears a pound of meat on a 30-centimeter-long bamboo skewer.
Enjoyable!
"Brother Sun. Peng Hui toasted a glass of wine and said sincerely: "Thank you very much." ”
"Hey, what are you talking about? I'm here to make money. Manager Sun took a sip with a smile.
The two drank liquor, and Peng Hui blew on the bottle, but he didn't dare.
"Then I have to thank you, I was still worried about this money. Peng Hui said with emotion.
He was really worried.
In order to film this drama, he has already bet all his net worth!
A total of 200 million was made!
This also includes the later share of "Wolf Warrior 2", as well as his total salary over the years.
This money is all the money that makes up the pre-preparation stage of "The Wandering Earth"!
Later, Wanda invested 60 million, Bad Monkey 10 million, Shanzheng 10 million, Ali invested 100 million, and China Film invested 100 million, which can be regarded as the entire crew.
Now, Wanda is pulling money, and the budget is suddenly insufficient.
This is a heavy industry science fiction film, under the premise of realistic special effects and guaranteed actors' strength, this cost is naturally very huge!
Not to mention anything else, it's just that the chariot that appeared in the movie costs millions of dollars a day!
It's not that Peng Hui doesn't want to use special effects to make it, but it looks very fake, and it takes a long time, so he can only use real cars!
The exoskeleton armor worn by several main actors is custom-made, and a set costs millions!
Not to mention the rental of various equipment, the hiring of medical personnel, etc., all of which are places where money is spent!
Here, I have to thank China Film.
If it weren't for the matchmaking of China Film, I'm afraid Peng Hui wouldn't have been able to rent it.
The entire crew can really be said to be grinded and grinded.
At this time, the impact of Wanda's divestment is enormous.
First of all, Wanda itself has the largest number of theaters in China, and as soon as the entertainment company invests in this aspect, the number of theaters there will definitely decrease.
In today's era, the number of films scheduled directly determines the box office of a movie, which is a lie, but it is bound to have a huge impact on the box office of the movie itself!
Therefore, the joining of Ali and Ning Hao really moved Peng Hui.
