Chapter 289: Finally Waiting for the Opportunity (The Second Update!)
When asked about his expectations for the new film, Wu Ershan was still conservative and did not directly say that he wanted to catch up with "Painted Skin".
"My goal is 100 million at the box office, and I also believe that our crew will not disappoint the audience, nor will Mr. Tang be disappointed. ”
He is still self-aware, except for the gap in the lineup and Tang An's influence, there should be hope for a box office of 100 million, after all, the actor is also Chen Kun.
One hundred million!
As long as he gets a box office of 100 million, he can prove himself and gain a firm foothold in the film industry.
Coupled with the sequel to "Painted Skin", which is destined to succeed later, he can leap into the ranks of top directors.
Happiness comes so easily!
After the press conference, Tang An personally sent Wu Ershan and the crew on the bus.
"Director Wu, I wish you a smooth shooting, and I'll celebrate you when you come back!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I won't let you down. ”
Wu Ershan looked at Tang An sincerely, although he was a little depressed about the credit for "Painted Skin" to Tang An, but it did not affect his gratitude.
If it weren't for Tang An, he would still be worried about the investment in "Knife and Laughter", let alone expected to become a top director.
"I naturally believe this, when you call me and Mr. Xu at any time, we will help you solve it immediately!"
Chen Kun also thanked Tang An, "Mr. Tang, thank you." ”
The explosion of "Painted Skin" not only made him a leader among the domestic Mesozoic actors, but Berner also contacted him and invited him to star in a costume blockbuster with Zhao Wei, and the filming of "Knife and Laughter" can almost start.
Immediately after that, there was "Painted Skin 2", which can be said to be the male lead in four consecutive movies thanks to Tang An.
In those two years, there were even far more resources than he had in the past few years combined.
Even if he tried his best to help Long Xinda's entire company, there was no way to help him win it.
"Don't thank me, you earned it yourself, the more you work hard, there will be more opportunities in the future!"
Tang An patted Chen Kun's arm and let him get into the car.
returned to the hotel, asked for a private room and had a hearty lunch with Xu Yanyun.
"You don't care about the filming of "Knife and Smile", just supervise the accounts, and let Wu Ershan experience and experience. ”
Tang An swallowed a quail egg in one bite, the quail egg roast meat in this hotel, no... The menu is written with ingots meat, and it tastes good.
The meat is also delicious, just that big piece, swallow it in one bite.
Last month, Yang Wenjun invited himself to dinner and wanted to attract some investment, and ordered a braised pork or salty, I don't know where to find a chef, this is not a trick!
"Do you want to give him all the power?" asked Xu Yanyun.
"If you don't let go of power, can you take care of it, there are still two movies to be released, I believe in his ability, he already has the experience of a movie, he can do it well. ”
Tang An didn't stop talking while talking, and stuffed three fried shrimp segments into his mouth in a row.
"In this case, give him the power, what if someone else poaches him?" Xu Yanyun still had some concerns.
Tang An smiled, put down the band in his hand, and wiped his mouth.
"Wu Ershan didn't sign a contract with us, so there is nothing to dig or not to dig up. ”
"If you show your ability, someone will naturally come to woo you, as long as we give enough profits, we don't have to worry about these, it is never a contract that can bind people, it will only be interests. ”
"Rather than let him be tied, give him maximum authority. ”
Xu Yanyun nodded, no longer questioned, and then talked about another thing.
"I have already completed the evaluation of Yang Wenjun's project, and several other investors in that TV series have also met, one of the companies has a state-owned enterprise background, and it is owned by Xinhua Bookstore, which can be invested, and it should not be difficult to sell it to a TV station. ”
"Then vote, you decide." ”
Tang An nodded, Yang Wenjun invited himself to a meal last month, he prepared a TV series, and there was still a bit of a funding gap, so he wanted to ask himself for help.
Although I believe in his ability, it only takes three or four million, but I still asked him to send all the information of the script and the project, so that Xu Yanyun can make a comprehensive evaluation.
And Tang An also found an actress with good acting skills and asked her to play Meng Xiaojun's wife Liangqin.
The scene lasted less than two minutes, that is, after these two minutes of scenes, Meng Xiaojun made up his mind to return to China.
The image of a strong, hardworking, hardworking, gentle and dignified wife is in stark contrast to Su Mei.
also received the same education, and also suffered in the United States, but Liangqin has always believed in his lover, and has always firmly supported him, knows how to give and sacrifice, Meng Xiaojun held her finger in the rental house, which really resonated.
"Then I'll ask them to sign a contract in two days. Xu Yanyun nodded and wrote it down.
"By the way, almost a week later, the share of "Shocking Demon Thieves" will come down, a total of 67.5 million, and I will not be there at that time, you can leave some publicity money for "People in Embarrassment" and continue to buy a house. ”
"Now we have bought 110 houses, mortgaged 55 units, and owe 47.5 million in bank loans. Xu Yanyun reported.
"The money owed by the bank, and the box office share of "Painted Skin" is about 40 million, and it is estimated that it should arrive in more than a month. ”
Buy 100 houses at one time, it's really nothing in the capital, and now communities are being built everywhere, and the most important thing is the house, as long as you have money.
The best thing to sell is also a house, and a lot of people buy it, as long as the price is right.
"I'll make a note of it, and I'll find someone to do it when the time comes. Xu Yanyun nodded.
"Yu Dong has already started negotiations with Huayi, I estimate that if it goes well, it should be determined before the Chinese New Year, and in another year at most, Huayi Group should be about to lose assets, and I can make a move at that time. ”
Tang An sighed, finally waiting for the opportunity.
In these years, it is even more difficult to invest in a company with film and television production, distribution, and publicity capabilities, let alone a controlling stake.
As far as Long Xinda is concerned, Tang An still can't look down on it.
Won 50% of the shares in the hands of Poly, and independently integrated Poly Culture, Shenlong Pictures, and Forbidden City Mountain Alliance.
The money should be enough, now 110 houses + 115 million, 47 million owed to the bank, if people can break 100 million in embarrassment, they will recover more than 30 million.
Next year, the mainland box office of "Chinese Partner" will be 30 or 40 million, and "Knife Laughter" will be 10 million.
can almost raise more than 250 million in cash, but it really can't be done at that time, "Painted Skin 2" and "Thai Embarrassment" are also filming, and if you take it to the bank as collateral, you can borrow at least 100 million.
Counting some of the companies that have risen in later generations, they are either only engaged in distribution, or only film and television production and artist management, and there are very few that can get involved in them all.
"Poly Group is not short of money, what if they have no intention of selling their shares?"
"I have my own way of doing this. ”
Tang An can't be later, at the end of 09, Poly wants to sell Huayi's shares.
"Actually, what I'm worried about is that they have a Poly Wanhe cinema line, and it is impossible to control it. ”
"We don't have enough funds, there are 50 movie theaters, and most of the stores are Poly's own. Xu Yanyun agreed.
Tang An didn't know this truth, how easy it was to be a theater chain.
There are constantly emerging film and television companies in the entertainment industry, but the theaters are still those, and only one Wanda has risen.
However, Wanda is engaged in real estate, and there are buildings and Wanda Plazas everywhere in the country, so it is easier to do a cinema chain.
Perhaps Poly can be persuaded to work together, and now the cinema has become a standard supporting facility in the community and commercial street.......
PS: Let's just take a look at the commercial part, don't take it seriously ^_^
