Chapter 218: Forced Marriage

Cultural and creative entertainment, New Year's Eve is discussing with her senior sister Ji Yingzi in her office.

"Senior sister, when the movie started, you said that the cost was at most 400 million. Now that the post-production is just over halfway through, the budget is insufficient, are you planning to go for a billion?"

The reason why Ji Yingzi took the initiative to come to the door today is that "Blue Fortress" has spent its previous budget and urgently needs to find a new source of funding.

As the first investor of the movie, Sui Xi is naturally listed as the first choice.

"100 million, it only takes 100 million to complete all the post-production processing. Ji Yingzi held up a finger and said seriously.

"What if we don't recover the cost?" asked Suixi with a frown.

She has already invested 200 million, and another 100 million is 300 million, and the cost of "Blue Fortress" will reach 500 million.

The production cost of 500 million means that the box office must exceed at least 1.5 billion to recover the cost.

If you want to make a profit, you have to go above two billion.

But how many movies have exceeded 2 billion box office in the entire Chinese film market over the years?

But two.

"Wandering Blue" and "Infernal Affairs", which has just been painted.

Although one of the movies is directed by Ji Yingzi, after all, a wise man must make a mistake, who can guarantee that this movie will succeed?

What's more, taking out 300 million is not a small amount for the New Year, and it is almost equivalent to taking all the income earned from investing in "Wandering Blue" last year.

This year, cultural and creative entertainment is preparing for two-line development, and it is inevitable to continue to invest in terms of funds. In this case, where does she dare to spend money and invest indiscriminately?

"You have to have confidence in Senior Sister, this is Senior Sister's hard work of sharpening a sword for five years, and the quality is no worse than the previous "Wandering Blue". ”

Ji Yingzi's tone is full of confidence, and after the success of filming "Wandering Blue", she has become a top science fiction director in China, and she is in the limelight, and she speaks with the word "floating".

Hearing this, Sui Xi shook his head, but did not refute it, just fell into deep thought.

What she is thinking about has nothing to do with believing in Ji Yingzi, but is entangled in this movie.

Now that the film has entered post-production, it is certainly unrealistic to want to terminate it, and the only thing that can be done is to continue to invest and not let the movie rot.

But on the one hand, the capital investment is too high, and if the movie is released on the street, it will definitely be a serious blow, and it may even affect cultural and creative entertainment.

"I'll think about it again. ”

In the end, Sui Xi still did not directly agree to inject capital.

"The evil capitalists have begun to put up a dragon gate formation again!"

Ji Yingzi muttered and returned in disappointment.

After Ji Yingzi left, Sui Xi pondered in the office for a long time, until the phone rang: "Hey, Dad." ”

……

The rainy season in April is coming, the spring rain continues from morning to night, and the thunder rumbles in the middle of the night.

The air was mixed with a faint earthy fragrance, and the irritated heart gradually calmed down.

Jiangbei stood by the window and looked at the spring rain outside, silently in a daze.

There's been a lot going on around me lately.

First of all, his father-in-law Li Qiangguo has entered the 'villain mode' and began to manipulate Erjing Film and Television to deal with New Year's Eve.

On the bright side, Jiangbei also handed over the ten songs he wrote casually to Erjing Film and Television to fight with Li Youqing.

Not surprisingly, Erjing Film and Television and Cultural and Creative Entertainment will soon collide head-on.

And what he needs to do is to help his father-in-law Li Qiangguo suppress cultural and creative entertainment, so as to lead to the big backer behind the New Year.

Li Youqing had just finished recording a song and walked out to drink saliva, and when he saw him in a daze, he didn't bother, but went to listen to the song he had just recorded again.

Maybe she didn't think the effect was very good, so she decided to re-record it after discussing it with the recorder and producer, so Xiao Nizi hurriedly walked into the recording studio again.

The whole hall was quiet again, until the Anseong gambling king came to the sofa with a burlap bag and began to count the bottles.

"Knock~"

"Smack~"

"The cultural and creative company is really poor, and it is estimated that it will not be able to sell it for ten yuan after looting the entire company. ”

Perhaps because he felt that today's income was too poor, the Tattered King of Ancheng complained while counting the bottles.

The whining voice pulled Jiangbei back to reality, walked to the sofa and sat down to look at the bottles on the ground, a little crying and laughing.

Ancheng gambling king deserves to be the gambling king of Ancheng, from repairing mobile phone film to picking up waste and picking up rags, you can always find a way to make money.

But the money earned by this girl doesn't buy clothes and skin care products, but thinks about how to turn over, which is really a wonderful flower in society.

"I think your peers should give you an award for great compassion and relief of the suffering, after all, you have supported the whole of your peers. ”

Liang Liang didn't raise his head when he heard this, and replied in a humming voice while sorting out the bottle: "I know you're teasing me, but it's okay, one day I will let you know what the real 'Anseong Gambling King' is." ”

Jiangbei Waner smiled, I'm afraid this is a lifetime series, right?

The gambling king was still carefully arranging the bottles, and then skillfully knotted the sack and put it aside, then raised his head and said: "By the way, brother, I heard a few things from the company's employees when I was collecting the bottles just now. ”

"You say. Jiangbei drank tea slowly and said.

"Ji Yingzi came to spend the New Year's Eve, it is said that the production cost of "Blue Fortress" is insufficient, so he wants to invest more in the New Year's Eve. ”

"I remember that "Blue Fortress" is not claimed to be 400 million to restrict the cost, isn't it enough?" Jiang Bei frowned and asked.

400 million investment to shoot a science fiction movie, it stands to reason that the intensity is not small, after all, the original "Wandering Blue" was only 300 million production costs.

"It's definitely no problem to change to someone else, but Ji Yingzi, brother, you don't know, I estimate that even if you give her a billion, you can spend it all. Liang Liang shrugged, looking helpless.

"Did you say yes?" asked Jiangbei.

No matter how much he invests, he is not optimistic about Ji Yingzi's "Blue Fortress" Jiangbei, if it weren't for the fear that Ji Yingzi, a pig teammate, would do something, he would have wanted Youyou to be the heroine.

Liang Liang shook his head, nodded again and said, "I didn't agree at first, but now I do." New Year's Eve promised to inject 100 million yuan into "Blue Fortress" in the name of cultural and creative entertainment, so that cultural and creative entertainment will become the investor and distributor of "Blue Fortress". ”

Injecting funds into "Blue Fortress" in the name of cultural and creative entertainment, it seems that Sui Xi really wants to expand cultural and creative entertainment.

In the final analysis, it was "Wandering Blue" that brought her huge profits and grew the ambitions of capitalists.

However, not every sci-fi movie is "Wandering Blue", and the vast majority of sci-fi movies are still losing money in today's market.

Of course, this is a good thing for Jiangbei, because it can become a point for his father-in-law Li Qiangguo to suppress cultural and creative entertainment.

"Go back and tell your uncle about the investment of cultural and creative entertainment into "Blue Fortress". After thinking about it, Jiangbei gestured.

"I'll go back in the evening and say it in the group. Liang Liang nodded in response.

"Anything else?"

"Another thing is gossip rumors, the exact truth of which is not yet known. ”

"What is it?"

"The day before yesterday, a mysterious guest came to the company, and the secretary Xiao Wang heard New Year's Eve calling his father, and when pouring tea, he heard them discussing marriage. ”

And the state of the past two days has not been very good, the secretary Xiao Wang said that she is always in a daze, and occasionally asks her some marriage-related things. ”

Combined with the age of the year, it is concluded that the year should have been urged to marry by her father. ”
