213. Money is the root of everything
Xie Xiaoke thinks the same as some people, how popular Wolf Warrior 2 was back then, people who have never watched movies know that until now, there has not been a domestic movie that surpasses it, there seems to be no little fresh meat in that movie, a film directed and acted by Wu Jing broke the box office record in the mainland.
Before that, the overall box office champion in the mainland was the epic film "Operation Red Sea" in 2018, 3.622 billion, which was also a war-themed movie, which made Xie Xiaoke unswervingly make the choice to invest.
While others are still calmly analyzing, calculating the risks.
Su Yuanyuan couldn't believe her ears, she looked at Xie Xiaoke with an obsessive look: "Mr. Xie, do you want to invest all the remaining shares?"
"Yes, if you don't suggest that my share exceeds your Orange Sky Entertainment, I can invest the remaining 250 million!"
Su Yuanyuan had a bad decision at this time, because the amount was too large, and she didn't expect the sponsor's investment to be larger than their company's own: "I have to consult with the internal first!"
After the big wave left, Wu Qian looked at Xie Xiaoke, and smiled a little mischievously: "You invested so much?"
"yes, what's wrong?"
"I just think it's too much, will the risk be too great?"
Xie Xiaoke smiled indifferently: "How can it be, my vision is very accurate, and even if I lose more than 200 million, it will not hurt me." ”
After hearing this, Wu Qian suddenly ran out of words, and there was a very obvious sense of pride in her heart, the more capital Xie Xiaoke had, the more she was relieved and bold to develop under the name of his company: "This is the thinking of rich people, you are much more courageous than those investors! But it is safer for you to invest less, and it is nothing to you if you lose, you say that you are not short of money, why do you want to gamble so much?" She still didn't quite understand, and felt that Xie Xiaoke's words were contradictory.
Xie Xiaoke could only reply to Wu Qian with a smile, he couldn't tell the truth.
On the one hand, he invested this money to earn points, on the other hand, because it is not easy to find a company that is like-minded with him, if this movie of Orange Sky Entertainment is successfully filmed, it will undoubtedly cause great harm to bad movies, and it also plays a huge role in promoting classic movies, which has largely promoted the development of Chinese films in a favorable direction, which is what Xie Xiaoke himself hopes to see.
Xie Xiaoke's idea is very simple, he is rushing to do any move that is beneficial to himself and can change the current film and television drama market, and his goal is to make Chinese films rise, at least to return to the golden age of Hong Kong films.
To be precise, this is not called a rise, it is called a recovery.
Xie Xiaoke definitely can't do this alone, but it's right to have such an idea, must he have his own direction of struggle!
But he thinks it's best to set a small goal that can be achieved first, such as starting from Shencheng and the people around him who can influence.
Especially something like today, which can help the development of the film industry and benefit yourself, why should you refuse?
Zhou Dongyu, who was sitting here bored, decided to turn around: "I'll go look around, and call me when I leave!"
"Okay!" Wu Qian made an OK gesture.
The scene of this banquet is very large, there are all kinds of strange people, and Zhou Dongyu happened to meet a friend in his circle.
This friend entered the circle of actors with her before, and at the beginning with her acting skills, she was also tepid in the circle, her appearance was neither high nor low, and she was eight and a half pounds and a half with Zhou Dongyu, but she was unwilling to exercise her acting skills and was unwilling to sleep with the director, so her popularity plummeted in the later stage, far inferior to Zhou Dongyu.
"Winter?
The other party immediately stood up when he saw Zhou Dongyu approaching, and teased with a hippie smile: "I felt like you when I saw it from a distance just now, I heard that you signed a contract with Peak Times?"
"Yes, Xinyi!"
A few celebrities who knew Zhou Dongyu next to him were also surprised, just with a "Bean Breaking the Sky", they believed in the peak era and Xie Xiaoke, this girl is fat enough, there are too many such short-lived companies in history, they think Zhou Dongyu's approach is really sloppy!
Sitting next to Xinyi was the only director in the audience who was not fat, leaning on an actress in his arms who was much worse than Zhou Dongyu in appearance and figure, and the actress squinted her eyes slightly disdainfully and said, "Yo, isn't this Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Dongyu's face changed slightly, and when he saw the woman's posture leaning on the director, he felt a pimple in his heart, ignored it completely, and walked directly in front of his friend Xinyi.
Unexpectedly, the other party still continued unrelentingly: "What kind of pretence, it's just a play, and what is pure and dirty, it is the same in the eyes of the audience, dear!"
This is a true portrayal of the psychology of an actress who is willing to degenerate, willing to sleep with thousands of people and ride thousands of people rather than spend a second exercising her acting skills, and now she still wants to brainwash others, trying to make everyone accept that her behavior is right.
Zhou Dongyu still didn't speak, this kind of person didn't even want a face, what else could make her feel ashamed?
Not only her, but many of the people sitting here are like this, she just thinks that she is different and does not conspire with each other.
chatted with Xinyi about the hardships he endured when filming in the Doupo crew, and Xinyi was envious when he heard it: "Oh my God, next time I want to make a new film in the peak era, remember to recommend me to Boss Xie!"
"It depends on your acting skills, it's useless for me to just recommend, hahaha!"
"Okay, I'm going to work hard to improve my acting skills from today!"
Just as they were talking, Su Yuanyuan walked to the stage again, took the microphone and shouted below: "Hello everyone, just now our first investor, Mr. Xie Xiaoke at the peak of the era, decided to invest 150 million yuan and hold 30% of the share, and now only the last 20% share is left, who else?"
Xinyi immediately pulled Zhou Dongyu's clothes and asked, "Is that your boss?"
"Yes, that's it, just now he said that he was going to invest 250 million, but it is estimated that Orange Sky Entertainment did not allow it, so it was changed to 150 million!" Zhou Dongyu's face was full of smiles.
There is still the remaining 20% of the share that no one has to invest for the time being, Su Yuanyuan has to wait so long and has to retire for the time being, it is not bad to be able to find a Xie Xiaoke here.
There was another company leader next to him who came to the stage, this person was dressed as dazzling as Su Yuanyuan, but the costume was even more colorful, helping her company's project information in his hand, and said to the audience with a smile: "Hello everyone!"
After speaking, she paused for three seconds and waited for the audience to applaud, and after the applause, she continued: "I am Ding Ling, the project leader of Yanjing Shenghai Film and Television Media Co., Ltd., and I also want to introduce our new project!"
The people in the audience were curious again, they were not optimistic about the film of Orange Sky Entertainment just now, and they paid attention to this Ding Ling, hoping that she could bring better investment projects.
Ding Ling took the document and introduced: "The costume romance drama "Only Envy Mandarin Ducks and Not Envy Immortals" that we invested in filming this time, starring popular students Chen Xuedong and Wu Yifan, is facing a very hot young market, and it will definitely be a big hit after it is released!"
Just when everyone was listening carefully, a director next to Xie Xiaoke suddenly persuaded: "Boss Xie, this is a good opportunity, you are so rich that you can invest it!"
Xie Xiaoke looked at the director very unhappily: "No money!"
After finishing speaking, he got up and left, and Wu Qian also chased after him.
