Chapter 388: Loans are also a big favor!
After "Olympic Dream" premiered on June 8, it won 22% of the ratings at once, which is simply a spike of all TV programs in the same period, including TV dramas and variety shows, nothing can be compared, even the original "Metamorphosis".
"This is simply amazing! It's really you, Director Wu!" Chen Xiaoqing's eyes were different when he looked at Wu Xiang.
"Xiao Wu, do a good job, the leader in the station is ......" Director Wang's face was full of smiles.
"Xiao Wu, this time the show is very good, the leaders above are very happy, they didn't expect that we can have such benefits in holding an Olympics, this is really unexpected. "Yuan Weimin sees Wu Xiang now, it is as if he has seen his future, it is really promising.
Of course, the Olympic Committee will donate this proceeds to the disaster area, but this is also an achievement, and it is a great achievement.
Satisfied in all aspects, not only the audience, but now the above is probably more happy, "Olympic Dream" is a program that satisfies everyone.
There are a lot of beautiful words in the media, what innovation, what connotation, what warmth...... Although Wu Xiang himself admits that this show is a copycat, it succeeded.
"Olympic Dream" will be broadcast once a week until the start of the Olympic Games, but now Wu Xiang can't follow this show all the time, he has too many things.
The preparations for "The Wind" are almost over, let's start filming immediately, this job is enough to be busy, but Wu Xiang can't just follow the crew of "The Wind". He still has to go to the United States.
It's not that domestic things are not important, but there are too many things in the United States right now.
The "Inception" side has been negotiated, and the preliminary preparations have been completed. Now funding is needed.
That's right, Christopher Nolan is ready to do a big job, and we as investors can't hold others back, right?
It's really a big deal, Nolan this guy found 'Xiao Li', that is, the 'Jack' DiCaprio of the year, this old brother's worth is not low. and Alan Peggy, her acting skills are quite good. Back then, there was a "Hard Fruit Candy", which frightened many old men, and there was also "Maleon" Marion Golia. Embarrassed, Ken Watanabe......
Well, it's all the same cast, and that's normal. Wu Xiang said it all at the beginning. You don't care about the cost.
That's a bit of a big deal, so now I'm going to have to worry about money.
If it is filmed in the United States, then the money is easy to say, WNM itself has sufficient funds, and the funds can come here while shooting, but Nolan is now thinking of going to Europe to shoot.
For example, there are some scenes, the scene of Ellen Page when she first meets Xiao Li. Nolan would love to go back to his alma mater because the books there are so strong. Very much in line with the plot requirements.
Some other individual dream scenes, in general, are really better in Europe, while the United States is relatively average.
There is a problem when you go to Europe, because Wu Xiang's company in Europe, that is, France's M6, this company's funds are not very sufficient, and the market development in Europe is actually relatively slow, but this is relatively speaking, you know, not only film companies, many companies are counted in all aspects, and the performance in Europe can generally not decline, then it is already very good, everyone's performance is actually declining.
That's an ordinary situation, not to mention that it's an economic crisis, Europe is worse than the United States, and it's really hard to go there, at least for every company.
In addition, it is a French company, and it is still more difficult to go to the UK, you know, this film investment is a lot of money, and it is not easy to transfer a large amount of money internationally!
Many people think that the dollar is not an international currency, so can't the money in the United States be easily used in Europe?
If the amount is relatively small, then it is fine, but once the amount becomes larger, then there is a cost involved, the cost of capital transfer.
This thing should not be ignored, because it does save zĂ i, of course, if you don't care about the time, then you can slowly turn yourself around. But then you have to pay the cost of time, so in the end, you still have to pay the cost.
Wandering from country to country with a suitcase of cash?
This kind of plot can only appear in movies and TV series, and it is still the kind that has no common sense.
What's more, now it's not a box at all, hundreds of millions, whether it's dollars or RMB, you can't transport it without a few big trucks!
Wu Xiang thought of a way, a loan!
Everyone knows that loans have interest, but in fact, the interest on loans is really much smaller than the cost of transferring funds.
That's right, that's the case, many guys who rely on finance to eat, in fact, they are not speculating in stocks, real estate or anything, a reasonable, legal and profitable business, in fact, it is to help people launder money, money laundering, in fact, it is a way to transfer funds.
It can be seen how high the cost of transferring funds is, the filming of "Inception" will involve hundreds of millions of dollars in funds this time, and it will also be transferred to the United Kingdom, continental Europe, and Japan, so no matter from which point of view, loans are the best choice and the lowest cost.
So who to get a loan from?
Wu Xiang found the Bank of China, yes, it is one of the four major banks in our country.
This is a big deal, hundreds of millions of dollars, the four major banks of 'China and Agriculture' are all interested in intervening, however, the overseas business of the Bank of China is now relatively good, there are more outlets, and the conditions offered by others are also relatively rich, so Wu Xiang naturally chose others.
The interest is the cheapest, and even gives you a discount, at the cost of implanting an ad for us!
Well, this thing almost doesn't have to be summed up, win-win, proper win-win!
In fact, many companies, especially film companies, use loans to make movies, and as far as Wu Xiang knows, basically every film in China is made with loans. The Wang Brothers' capital operation has been playing very well. The same is true abroad, and the big Hollywood companies are living on loans.
The big company is strong, that is, the strong in this place. In fact, they are not financially rich, but they have strong credit, they can get more loans, of course, banks are more willing to lend to them, and even these big companies really can't afford to pay back, which is great. We can lend you a good loan and let you pay it back.
The United States itself is such a society, and it is too normal to consume ahead of time. And where did the financial crisis come about?
So, it's normal to take out a loan.
It's just that this matter has to go to the United States to finalize the details. WNM is an American company. And this is the overseas business of the Bank of China.
Involving such a large sum of money, Wu Xiang naturally had to go in person, and there were other things that he had to be present.
It's mid-June now, and Wu Xiang's second new film this year, "Human Erasure Project", is about to be released in the United States.
Thereupon. The premiere of "The Human Eradication Project" is scheduled for June 29, and the time for the mass release. That is, the time of the global release, which is a very meaningful day, July 4th!
Independence Day, this is the day, and Mr. Edward thinks this day is very good, very good, just right for such a movie.
In other words, this old guy is indeed very smart, and he really didn't say anything about the day he chose.
Wu Xiang got up and flew to the United States on June 20, and soon he negotiated the loan, which is actually a sum of money that can allow Nolan to withdraw this money in many countries.
That's a lot of money!
"Director Wu, your loan this time has really helped us a lot, thank you very much, hahaha, we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future." â
This is said by the head of the bank, who is very happy, very positive, the service attitude, really is very good, this loan to them, have become a favor for them.
Wu Xiang naturally knew how to socialize, and talked and laughed with others for a while, but he understood in his heart what was going on.
The country has foreign exchange reserves, and this reserve is very large, and sometimes, it is not a good thing to have more money.
Isn't it a good thing to have money? Isn't that?
It's really not, it's good to have money, but it's not good to have too much.
In this matter, we have to talk about it from the beginning, how did our country's foreign exchange reserves come from?
Of course, it is in exchange for the products we produce, when we were poor in the past, it was really necessary to have these foreign exchanges, at that time foreign exchange was really useful, the country was poor, everything was lacking, but now the problem is that there is too much foreign exchange.
To be honest, if you can do other things, such as buying some high-tech that we need, whether it's patents or technology, that's fine, or some high-tech weapons, but the problem is that these things are not sold in Europe and the United States.
That's right, they've been doing a technical blockade, and these things are completely out of your hands, don't even think about it.
Since this aspect is not good, then you can only buy resources, buy minerals, and invest, invest in various potential projects, just like Wu Xiang's new movie this time.
It's a very good investment, anyone can see it, so everyone wants to get involved.
Capital cannot be stopped, it must be operational, otherwise, it will be over. The so-called economic crisis is actually that capital cannot operate and loses the goal of investment, and the economic crisis is not that there is no money, but that you don't know how to spend it.
Therefore, Wu Xiang's loan is really helpful and helpful, and now he is in the midst of an economic crisis, a global economic crisis.
To be honest, if Wu Xiang came to work on this "Inception", he would not need a loan at all from the cost point of view, but this loan also brought considerable benefits to Wu Xiang. That is, you have a stronger credit rating, and you can borrow more money in the future, whether your project is profitable or not.
In other words, Wu Xiang has opened another channel in terms of capital.
After dealing with the financial matters, I discussed the movie with Nolan again, and the time came on June 29, and Wu Xiang's second Hollywood movie was about to have her premiere again...... (To be continued......)
PS: Thank you for the monthly ticket voted by all book friends, thank you for your support!
Today is the Martyrs' Memorial Day, the black car thinks it's very good, the country finally attaches importance to this piece again, and a card played by foreign forces is to destroy our heroic image, which was used very well in the former Soviet Union.
We can't follow the old path of the Soviet Union, and we can't wait until it collapses to remember what was good at the beginning.
May the martyrs who have contributed to the fight against the invaders, the independence of the nation, and the rebirth of the country for our China will be immortalized!
