Chapter 757: Believe or Don't Believe

At noon, Tang An had a meal with Han Sanping and Jiao Tufenol, talked about some details, and left.

"The Wandering Earth" is tentatively controlled by China Film, Han Tang and China Film Digital, and in terms of special effects production, China Film Digital Base and Tiangong Colorful and Jinshan Cloud Rendering Farm will cooperate.

Originally, this project was very successful, and this time the support of the three parties is greater than the original, and there will be basically no problems.

There was no precedent for the success of domestic sci-fi films before this film, so several major investors did not have much confidence, otherwise no one would be willing to make additional investments after Wanda withdrew its investment.

Now Tang An's films have proved that as long as domestic science fiction films are filmed, they will have the soil to survive, and the support for the film will definitely be much greater than the original.

However, if Wanda had not divested, it is unclear whether this film would have been so successful.

If Wanda does not withdraw its investment, then there will be no Wu Jing to play, and in the case that the male and female protagonists are not famous, this role will definitely invite a big name, the salary will be higher, and the cost of production will be reduced.

And if it is normal, "The Wandering Earth" will be released in the summer, facing "I Am Not the God of Medicine".

There is no Wu Jing, there is a lack of topics, and then facing the word-of-mouth "I Am Not the God of Medicine", the latter Xu Zheng's fame is higher than that of all the actors in the entire "The Wandering Earth" combined, and it is likely to be a lose-lose situation.

Of course, Wanda's approach at that time was also normal, if two projects are placed in front of you, one of them is directed by Song Xiaofei, who has served as the photographer of "Bullfighting", "The Grandmaster", "Hong Kong", and "Beijing Meets Seattle".

Actor Bai Baihe, the highest-grossing actress in the mainland film industry, and Wu Xiubo, the representative of the popular uncle whose character has not collapsed.

The film genre is also a relatively well-established romance and comedy in China, with popular movies such as "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", "Predecessor Raiders", and "Beijing Meets Seattle" as the basis.

And the director of the other part can get his hands on "You at the Same Table", the new generation of the male protagonist in 94 has acted in several online dramas, and the heroine is the same, she has filmed a TV series, as well as the movie version of "Balala Little Demon Fairy".

In terms of film genre, it is also a heavy industry sci-fi film that has never been made in China, and it can be said that it has never been made in China, and there is no domestic sci-fi film that can refer to historical benefits.

These two projects are placed in front of investors, and 90% of them will choose the former.

Wanda just made the "right choice" that most people would choose, after all, the winners are always a small minority.

This is not a comical operation, Lao Wang's most sassy thing is the project of grabbing Malaysia City with China Railway.

It is an important transnational project involving international strategic development, connecting the core of the entire Southeast Asian high-speed rail economic network hub in Malaysia, the chief personally talked to the Malaysian government, and his old king dared to cut off this project, which is really inflated.

In May 17, the Prime Minister of Malaysia came to Beijing to participate in the Belt and Road Summit Forum, but his first stop in Beijing was not to visit the government leaders first, but to the headquarters of Wanda Group to visit Wang.

Prior to this, Lao Wang had been the richest man for three years in the past four years.

People are easy to float as soon as they are awesome, so this old king moved the idea of wrestling his wrist with Zhongtie.

There is nothing to compete between private and state-owned enterprises, but the money invested by Wanda is borrowed from banks, and it is all state money.

To borrow the state's money to intercept the state's project, or a major project that the chief personally decided, is not looking for death.

Immediately afterwards, the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) conducted an investigation of Wanda's credit risks, and monitored six major overseas projects of Wanda from the beginning.

Of course, this is just a fuse, and in 16 years, several companies such as Wanda and Fuxing have acquired overseas football teams, sports clubs, oil paintings, real estate... and other junk assets, nearly $300 billion was spent.

$300 billion, accounting for 80 percent of the foreign exchange loss that year, almost caused a huge financial shock, making the current personal foreign exchange card very strict.

The loss of foreign exchange is huge, the country's credit is downgraded, what a big impact!

In the past, there were short-selling state-owned enterprises to get into their own pockets, but now they dare to short the country, how bold it is!

The State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the China Banking Regulatory Commission, and the central bank joined forces to attack, and Lao Wang was GG.

The ancient giant Shen Wansan was easily cleaned up by Zhu Yuanzhang, not to mention that it was just a Wanda, and he had no power to resist at all.

If there is a problem with the capital chain, a large amount of assets will be sold, and "The Wandering Earth" was withdrawn at that time, and after breathing a sigh of relief, it invested in the medium-cost comedy romance film "Love Saint 2".

Lao Wang also began to fall out of the top three on the rich list at this time, and Xu Jiayin of Hengda came from behind, and sure enough, doing real estate is to make money.

......

"The Wandering Earth" has been finalized with China Film for the time being, and when it comes to preparations, the "Three-Body Problem" will be slowed down first.

It's too difficult, and the trilogy can't be finished.

However, someone has already bought the copyright from China Film, which is the original producer of the "Three-Body Problem" movie, Youzhu Pictures, a company that makes games.

Originally, the first part of "The Three-Body Problem" was filmed in 15 years, and You Chase Pictures just wanted to make a wave of money, and after using the movie to make the IP famous, it would make the old game.

But the wandering boss didn't expect that "The Three-Body Problem" would win the Hugo Award, although the fame has greatly increased, but their pressure is also increasing.

There is a national deputy bamboo mat who is a fan of "The Three-Body Problem", and has been paying attention to the adaptation of the movie.

Although I don't know what the leader said, it is a fact that these two vice-national-level leaders have seen the rough cut version of "The Three-Body Problem".

As a result, after the filming of "The Three-Body Problem", the special effects company withdrew halfway through, and You Cha did not find anyone to continue to do special effects, so it ran aground.

A shoddy work that makes money, in order to promote the game in the future, it is also a good thing that it will not be released.

The director of this film actually said in an interview that he was going to Hollywood to learn green screen technology, which is something that can only be said by many amateur directors.

Green screen shooting is just a very popular primary special effects technology, which will not be, and go to shoot sci-fi blockbusters.

Later, when I was shooting, there were so many photos of the scene that came out, and there were even folds on the green screen, from the director to the entire crew, it was simply amateurish.

Most of those posters are also deducted from the design drawings of other games and movies, and there is nothing to design by themselves, that is, they can't be released, otherwise I don't know how rubbish it can be.

......

After talking about this matter, Tang An went back to the company and asked Zhang Wall to send a producer, in addition, Tang An also asked Du Yang to come to the company and gave her a part of the share, so that he and the producers sent by the company jointly controlled the project on behalf of Han Tang and China Film.

The "Fengshen" series has Song Ge and Chen Guozhang, which is more troublesome than "The Wandering Earth", and it is a trilogy, and the two of them have companies to manage, and they have no extra energy.

The top producers of the Hantang Media series are Song Ge, Chen Guozhang, Du Yang, plus Zhang Wall, there are only four, Zhang Wall wants to control the overall situation, so he can only let Du Yang go.

Top producers are very rare, much more valuable than first-line stars, even kings like Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei are not as valuable as a top producer for Tang An.

With so many projects in the company, they are in charge, and Tang An is basically the shopkeeper, and he doesn't have to take care of business matters.

In the past few days, Tang An has rested with peace of mind, and the company has no major matters to deal with for the time being, adjusting his state and preparing to meet the new challenges that are coming.

......

The cooperation between China Film and Han Tang in "The Wandering Earth" did not be hidden for a long time, and soon the senior executives of major companies knew about it.

can't hide it, such a big project involves the boss of a state-owned enterprise, the boss of a private enterprise, the first special effects company in China, the top five Jinshanyun in China, and the first film and television post-production base in China, and it is impossible to start quietly.

Wanda Pictures, Jiang Defu was the first to learn the news.

After all, he was also a big mountain within China Film before, controlling China Film Digital and China Film Marketing Branch, and holding the distribution channels of the entire group.

Hanging up the phone of his old subordinates, Jiang Defu thought about it for a while and asked the secretary to notify the company's executives to hold a meeting.

Taking over the entire Wanda film and television industry from Ye Xuan, although Jiang Defu is not in a hurry to prove himself with performance, Wang Jianlin has already started the listing process of Wanda Cinemas, and is considering acquiring Wanda Pictures with the theme of Wanda Cinemas after listing, creating the first film and television company with a market value of 100 billion.

In the past two years, although relying on Wanda Cinemas, Wanda Pictures' business has been good, "Havoc in Heaven" has made a profit, and "Beijing Love Story" has guaranteed to others, but the guarantee fee still makes a lot of money.

Xu Ke's "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" should not fail, and "One Step Away" was also sold to Ah Lik with a guarantee of 1 billion.

However, this year's highlight "Monster Hunt" has changed so much that the prospect is difficult to predict.

Since "The Wandering Earth" even Tang An has invested, Jiang Defu does not doubt Tang An's vision and wants to win an investment.

No matter how high the investment is, the genre is not as good as comedy, but with the support of the three major groups, the risk is within an acceptable range.

At the subsequent meeting, Jiang Defu talked to the company's senior management.

Just took over Wanda Pictures, and there is still some internal unpeace.

Zhao Fang, senior assistant to the president of Wanda Cultural Industry Group and vice president of Wanda Pictures, immediately raised questions.

"Mr. Jiang, with a production cost of at least 300 million yuan and a three-year cycle, investing in a science fiction movie is too risky, right?"

Jiang Defu glanced at him and said with a slight smile, "There is indeed a certain risk, but in terms of special effects, the cloud rendering farm cooperated by Kingsoft Cloud and Hantang will participate, how much can the time for post-special effects be reduced, the time-consuming is the pre-modeling, if everything goes well, it will take about two and a half cycles, and it is still within the controllable range." ”

Zhao Fang questioned again, "What about the director, there is no director with experience in science fiction films in China, unless Tang An shoots it himself!"

In the face of Zhao Fang's continuous questioning, Jiang Defu still had a smiling expression, "This is indeed a problem, but before he continuously excavated Xu Zheng, Wu Jing, Wu Ershan, Tian Yusheng, Teng Huatao... With so many capable directors, I will also find a suitable director for this film this time. ”

"But there has never been a precedent for a successful science fiction film except for Tang An!"

Zhao Fang refuted Jiang Defu's words three times in a row, which made him slightly annoyed in his heart.

Jiang Defu gradually put away his smile and said lightly, "Tang An's favorite movies have never failed. ”

After that, Jiang Defu looked around at the high-level executives present, and slightly accentuated his tone, "Before, Tang An of "Beijing Love Story" opened a guarantee of 350 million, I think Mr. Zhao didn't believe it, but in the end, he still took 500 million box office, and the company lost tens of millions. ”

"Mr. Zhao is not optimistic about "The Return of the Great Sage" during the Spring Festival, but in the end he won the box office championship of the Spring Festival stalls, as well as Jiang Wen's "One Step Away", a billion guaranteed to be sold to Ah Li, I don't know how Zhao always evaluates, but I prefer to believe in a person who never fails!"

This is almost a direct saying that Zhao Zhaofang's vision is not good, although these projects were all made by Ye Fang when he was in office, but now that Ye Zhao has resigned, Zhao Fang, the second-in-command, will be back to the blame.

Zhao Fang was also choked back, had nothing to say, and no longer refutated.
