Chapter 383: Departure to North America

When he knew that "The Return of the Great Sage" in this time and space was occupied by Guanglu Media, Li Mo really just wanted to find an opportunity to meet Wang Changtian, and then talk to the other party about investing together.

Like in the previous life, Guanglu Media also pressed a lot of money on this project, if Molong proposed to be willing to share the investment, Guanglu did not say that it would be welcome, at least it would not be too resistant.

By participating in the investment, Molong has the opportunity to use this as a breakthrough to contact professionals in the animation production industry.

Unexpectedly, the income of "Where Are You Going, Dad" was so attractive that Guanglu Media actually started Li Mo's idea first......

In that case, you are unkind, and I am unjust!

Although it has paid some price for wanting Shonan Satellite TV to come forward to cooperate, in general, Molong has completed 90% of its goals in this copyright transaction.

First of all, the copyright of a variety reality show with limited future potential was sold for a good price.

Secondly, 100 million yuan of working capital was obtained.

In the end, he got the vast majority of the investment and film copyright of "The Return of the Great Sage" (and a very small part of the investment is in the hands of some small companies, which does not affect the copyright), which makes it possible for Li Mo to realize the mythical universe of the Celestial Empire.

What's not to be satisfied with?

…………

On the other hand, when Guanglu Media received confirmation from Molong's side and agreed to the plan they proposed, using the investment amount of "The Return of the Great Sage" to offset part of the copyright money, Wang Changtian and Li Xiaoping also let out a long breath.

"Finally threw this mine out......"

This is what both of them share on this issue.

When Wang Changtian chose to invest in the team of "The Return of the Great Sage", he really understood the difficulty of animated film production.

At that time, the film had been in silent production for almost six years under the leadership of director Tian Xiaopeng, and at that time, Wang Changtian confirmed that he would invest, thinking that he should be able to see the results in about a year......

However, the expected completion time of the project "The Return of the Great Sage" has been delayed again and again.

At the beginning, Wang Changtian asked people to report their progress once a month.

The reason for breaking this habit is that in the reports sent to Wang Changtian, some of the reports received for three consecutive months are exactly the same or similar.

For example: "The team is making the plot of chasing Xiao Tang Seng in the mountain demon and the woods, and the animation producer XXX leaves;"

Another example: "The team continued to produce the plot of the mountain demon and chasing the little Tang monk in the woods, and the animator XX left;"

Or: "The team is still working on the plot of chasing Xiao Tang Seng in the woods between the mountain demon and the woods, and the animator XXX resigned;"

…………

In the report for three consecutive months, the general content has not changed at all, except for some minor changes in the names of the relevant responsible persons.

It seems that the only thing that has stagnated during this period of time is that some of the animators have left, and then a few new people have arrived......

It wasn't until the fourth month that Wang Changtian, who couldn't sit still anymore, called Tian Xiaopeng, the director of "The Return of the Great Sage", to the office for some inquiry, and he sadly discovered a fact: due to the gap between domestic 3D animation production technology and foreign countries to a certain extent, in order to achieve the desired effect, he could only slowly pick out the details by extending the production time......

The scene of the mountain demon chasing the little Tang monk in the woods mentioned in the report is the best example.

In a sense, the situation in the report is the result of some cover-ups.

Tian Xiaopeng told Wang Changtian that in fact, the production team of that scene has been tossing for half a year, and there are almost double-digit animators before and after......

After knowing what happened to the whole thing, Wang Changtian could only encourage Tian Xiaopeng to keep up the work, don't care too much about the money, and make sure to make the results he wants......

After Tian Xiaopeng left, Wang Changtian immediately ordered Li Xiaoping: If there is anything about "The Return of the Great Sage" in the future, there is no need to submit a report to him on a monthly basis, and only need to submit a financially audited expenditure to the chairman's office every six months......

In this way, what used to be a monthly ordeal became a semi-annual ordeal......

Although the number of torments has been significantly reduced, whenever Wang Changtian sees the audit data brought by Li Xiaoping, he will inevitably be dizzy for a long time.

However, starting today, Wang Changtian can finally proudly announce that from now on, the mountain of "The Return of the Great Sage", which is pressed on Guanglu Media, is finally gone forever.

If it weren't for Li Mo's hot brain, he wanted to run to an animation studio, Wang Changtian might not have thought of exchanging such a big burden for resources that could be traded.

"In the future, this bottomless pit will be handed over to Molong Media to fill it slowly. ”

Wang Changtian nodded with satisfaction, and solemnly signed his name on the copyright transaction contract brought back by Li Xiaoping......

After completing the copyright transaction with Guanglu Media, Li Mo took the time to call Deng Chao, who was far away in the magic capital, briefly told him about the situation in the imperial capital, and then told him with great certainty that with the completion of the transaction on the imperial capital, the funds required for the preliminary preparation of "Breakup Master" will be in place soon, so that he can carry out all the preliminary preparations with peace of mind.

When Deng Chao first answered the phone, his mood was quite normal, and there was no problem in his tone, but when Li Mo subconsciously asked Deng Chao who he planned to find to be the heroine of the crew, Deng Chao said that he had been in contact with Yang Mi.

…… Moreover, the two parties have reached the point where although they have not yet signed a formal contract, their basic intentions have been set.

Regarding this news, after Li Mo was silent for a long time, he finally told Deng Chao very loudly that since it had been determined that Deng Chao himself would make the decisions on the issues involving the cast and actresses when the two parties first signed the contract, he would not break his word now.

is still the same sentence, except for the financial expenditure of the crew, which must go through the formal process for audit and verification, everything else, Deng Chao can decide in one word.

I don't know if Li Mo's 'good talk' gave Deng Chao any illusion, this guy actually had a whim at the end of this phone call, and invited Li Mo and Liu Yifei to appear in "Breakup Master", playing a pair of 'clients', that is, a couple who are breaking up......

Li Mo didn't think much about this request, anyway, it was in the movie, not reality.

What's more, Deng Chao invited Liu Yifei, if it was Fat Di, Li Mo would definitely refuse directly.

In his previous life, he worked in the circle for so many years, and while Li Mo learned the professional skills of various positions, he also listened to all kinds of messy taboos and taboos, such as "when you need to worship God to turn off the machine and choose an auspicious time", it is just a pediatric, ""see red" to give red envelopes, women do not sit in boxes' This is a common practice in the industry,

Although I don't know if acting in a breakup scene will affect the relationship, Li Mo still decided that it would be better to have fewer cameo opportunities.

Anyway, in the end, Li Mo only confirmed his time with Deng Chao, and Li Mo directly asked Deng Chao to contact him if Liu Yifei had a scheduled cameo.

After putting down the phone, Li Mo dialed Zong Shuai's phone again and asked him about the situation of "Beijing Meets Seattle".

The film directed by Xue Xiaolu started half a month earlier than "Happy Death Day", and now "Happy Death Day" has completed post-production and entered the review process, but "Beijing Meets Seattle" has not been heard from, Li Mo feels that it is time for him to do his duty as a boss, go to North America to visit a class or something, and care about his employees by the way......
