Chapter 437: Special Relief Fund

"Director Lu, in the previous program interview, we talked about a topic, that is, you plan to donate all the proceeds of the film "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and set up a public welfare fund to help leukemia!" Tu Jingwei said cautiously, with an expression of fear that the other party would be angry and would not admit it.

Lu Lin said: "Of course I remember, that time was after the Bazaar Charity Night, Li Mi led the team to interview!"

Tu Jingwei let out a long breath and said with a smile: "Yes, Li Mi was worried that your movie would not have a high income......

Lu Lin nodded, "Yes, I said at that time that the expected start-up capital is 200 million, and the insufficient part will be made up by me personally!"

Tu Jing said: "According to today's box office trend, Longlin Pictures' income can be seven or eight hundred million!"

Lu Lin shook his head slightly and said, "It's really hard to say, but I think there is a box office income of 2.5 billion or more." However, Longlin Pictures only accounts for the majority of the film investment, and it still has to pay taxes, about 500 million!"

Tu Jingwei saw that what he said seemed to be talking about five or six hundred yuan, and couldn't help but be stunned, before hurriedly said: "Director Lu is really kind and generous!"

Lu Lin smiled, his expression flat. Although compared with the stars in the film and television industry, the donation of 500 million is astronomical. But compared with Ma Yun, Liu Qidong, and Wang Jianlin, who are pretending to be the kings of the world, 500 million is just a small goal, and I must not show that I am so generous!

After that, he talked about the operation of the fund, the box office income of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is not a small amount, Lu Lin will definitely not donate it, even if it takes some effort, its fund operation and account details must be placed in Longlin Pictures and under the supervision of Lu Lin.

Because it has not yet been established, Lu Lin did not say too much about the specific rescue rules, but only expressed his willingness to be supervised by all walks of life, and he will definitely invest the income of Longlin Pictures in the film "I Am Not the God of Medicine" into this leukemia special relief fund.

After the interview, Tu Jingwei and others left with the interview team and returned to CCTV to sort out the materials.

Song Ge sighed to Lu Lin, who entered his office: "The current box office trend of "God of Medicine" is 26.7 billion. Coupled with our donation news, the box office may be able to exceed 30. went to Xu Zheng's company's dividends and tax deductions, six or seven billion yuan of income!"

Lu Lin sat on the sofa and said with a grin: "Hey, isn't it just a movie with a box office of three billion?

Song Ge couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, can this be the same? How much does Lu Lin's special effects blockbuster cost, and how much does the cost of "God of Medicine" cost!

However, he was not reluctant, after all, his share in the entire Longlin company was not high. Moreover, his current net worth and status also have a heart for charity.

In fact, many wealthy people in China are not unwilling to do charity, but they are more cautious, afraid that their hard-earned money will not be spent on those in need.

Lu Lin and Song Ge also had this concern, so they planned to set up their own fund management company to operate this charitable fund.

said that the next day, "China Film Report" reported the content of the interview with Lu Lin, which really attracted heated discussions among netizens!

"It's really fake, Lu Lin is too generous!"

"With his current identity and status, he will definitely not dare to break his word!"

"Director Lu is good, just rush this sentence, and walk away!"

"Three swipe check-in!"

"We must support Director Lu and strive to make the box office of "God of Medicine" 5 billion, I feel sorry for him!"

"Yes, let him donate one billion at a time, I feel sorry for this guy!"

Netizens are hotly discussed, and the cumulative box office of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" is also rising under such heated public opinion. In the second week, it closed at 1.13 billion, and the cumulative box office approached the 2.5 billion mark.

With the increase in the box office, many "spiritual shareholders" also helped Longlin Pictures settle accounts, because they didn't know the respective investment ratios of Longlin and Huanxi Media, many netizens shouted Xu Zheng and asked him if he would donate.

In fact, long before the filming started, Lu Lin told Xu Zheng about donating. At that time, Xu Guangtou didn't take this matter too seriously, and went over without making a clear statement.

Now that I can't get mixed up, I posted a status on Weibo saying that I am a small artist and cannot be compared with a big boss like Lu Lin, so I can only do what I can and am willing to donate 20 million.

Some netizens are dissatisfied, thinking that Xu Zheng has made a lot of money, so he has to start with 100 million. But fortunately, he has a good audience in the past two years, and many fans defended him online.

Subsequently, Bona Pictures suddenly announced that it would donate 10 million to the leukemia special relief fund established by Longlin Pictures. On the same day, Huayi also issued a statement that he was willing to donate 10 million.

These two pieces of news really surprised netizens, after all, only a few people knew about the gambling contract between Wang Zhonglei, Yu Dong and Lu Lin, and it was not circulated on the Internet.

But the subsequent developments surprised even Lu Lin. The three industry giants of Wanda Pictures, Penguin Pictures, and Ahri Pictures all issued statements that they would donate 10 million to the upcoming fund of Longlin Pictures, with a posture of supporting the scene.

It's a pity that just when netizens thought that it would trigger a big donation from the entire film and television industry, companies such as China Film, Guangxian, and Leshi did not follow up.

Longlin Film Company, the boss's office, Lu Lin and Song Ge sat opposite each other. The latter said while making tea: "Wanda, Penguin, and Ahri are not as simple as cheering, they are quite ambitious!"

Of course, Lu Lin knew that the big bosses of these three families were all ambitious. Wanda took the road of theater expansion, and Penguin Pictures took the IP operation route, wanting to become the second Disney.

Only this Ahri Pictures, blindly operating at a loss through mergers and acquisitions, has not seen much core competitiveness.

"It doesn't matter what their ambitions are, anyway, we are going to jump out of the domestic circle and take the global route!

Song Ge said: "According to the previous plan, Europe is the focus, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and other countries have set up distribution offices, although the upfront cost is a little high, but in the long run, it is still worth it." ”

As for Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, Longlin Pictures has cooperated with local filmmakers in recent years, and there has been no big move for the time being.

In North America, because I don't want to be too stiff with the six Hollywood majors, the distribution rights of "The Killing of Gods" in the entire American region are packaged as a whole.

In view of the past performance of Lu Lin's blockbusters in the global market, Disney, Universal and other companies naturally hurriedly sent people over to negotiate.

Although Warner, which had been cooperating with before, was very dissatisfied, it was also cursing and sending people over to get the distribution rights of Lu Lin's new film in the American market.
