Chapter 497: Taste (2-in-1)

Maoyan Investment has determined a framework, and the rest of the things are still complicated and arduous for the project negotiation team, but overall good results can be seen.

This kind of meeting and investment does not need to be discussed by Gan Jing and Wang Xing, as long as everyone has an intention and realizes a win-win way, then it can continue to be carried out.

Gan Jing has always been a person who is not stingy with spending money, and now he can indeed mobilize funds in his hands, while Wang Xing is ambitious and unwilling to lie dormant under the banner of the big man.

The two sides barely hit it off.

After this end, Wang Xing also took Gan Jing to visit the internal working environment of Xia Meituan, and as expected, there was a posture of stepping on the rapid development of the waves of the times, which was very exciting, very busy, and very infectious.

Gan Jing followed the CEO all the way, nodding all the way, smiling all the way to the employees who were looking at him in surprise - this scene made Lao Chen and Zhou Pu feel a little funny, and they are in a good mood now.

In the end, Wang Xing personally sent the three out of the door.

As soon as he got into the nanny car, Gan Jing opened his mouth and said to Zhou Pu, who was sitting next to him: "This Wang Xing looks really short of money, I'm afraid the meaning of introducing me all the way just now is not to arouse my interest in Meituan again." ”

Zhou Pu smiled, and he also saw what this meant: "Group buying is growing really fast, but so far it has been crazy to burn money, and the estimated sales of 5 billion this year are not 1 billion losses." ”

Gan Jing frowned: "There are so many?"

Zhou Pu shook his head and said: "If the capital can move, it can live, and the capital market can make a beautiful valuation if it tells a good story, and then continue to raise funds to move forward." Circle users, circle data, the future is difficult. ”

He thought for a moment and added: "It's a bit like JD.com, which is also burning money." ”

Gan Jing bowed his head, he was not really interested in these things, but he still had to have the necessary understanding, and he had to let Zhou Pu make a brief and clear summary of these things.

As for the cat's eye movie that will be independent, for the future development of this piece, he will lead Huaxia Special Effects to do in-depth market research - the film and television industry, he is indeed motivated to do it.

The car was quiet for a while, Zhou Pu suddenly laughed out loud for no reason, and said to Forrest Gump: "I think Wang Xing regards you as an outlet and spokesperson for some funds." ”

Gan Jing shrugged strangely: "White gloves?"

Zhou Pu nodded.

Gan Jing didn't go any further, his money was basically transparent, taxes should be paid, and the records should be recorded, even some funds borrowed from Italy and the United States were formal procedures and had already been completed.

……

Just two days after his trip to Meituan, when Gan Jing was once again focusing on the box office situation, he received a call from Zhou Gongzi.

"Brother Forrest Gump, the box office is good. Zhou Gongzi's voice sounded very graphic on the phone, and her title was still the same as before, because of the ridicule of "Cloud Atlas".

Gan Jing clipped the mobile phone to his neck, smiled unconsciously, and lifted his pants with the other hand: "Well, Brother Xun'er made a good call." ”

"Really, what are you doing?" asked Zhou Gongzi.

Gan Jing walked out of the bathroom, sat on the sofa in the living room, glanced at the data he had just gotten, and said with a smile: "I just finished a very important thing." You're not going to call me specifically to say box office, right? That's not your coolness. ”

Zhou Gongzi laughed: "Am I really cool? Well, there is a cool thing to find you on the phone, do you want to come here if I have an investment here?" ”

Huh, Zhou Gongzi, who has never cared about the appreciation of funds, actually called over to pull himself to invest?

It's a bit of an anomaly.

Gan Jing still had an impression of Brother Xun'er's studio, knowing this temperament, he asked a little puzzled: "Tell me what kind of opportunity it is, so you can't help but invest." ”

"Do you know about LeTV?" Zhou Xun's voice became a little lower, "They are going to make an independent LeTV Sports, and I heard that they will also be listed in the future, and now is a good opportunity for investment." ”

LeTV?Sports?

Gan Jing turned around in his mind, he didn't know much about this, and he didn't pay much attention to the sports industry in his spare time, so he hesitated: "It's not a liar, right?"

"LeEco is a listed company. Zhou Xun was slightly disdainful, "I've seen the boss of the company, and now several people are planning to invest in it, and LeTV Sports will be listed in the future, and it should be able to make a lot of money." ”

"Who are they?" asked Gan Jing.

"Wang Baoqiao, Jia Gengliang, Sun Honglei, Liu Tao......" Zhou Xun counted several names.

Gan Jing thought for a while, and said into the phone: "Then you send me a text message, share and funds or something, I'll call and ask Sun Honglei." ”

Zhou Xun was puzzled: "Why do you want to ask him?"

"I think you're a bit stupid when it comes to money. Gan Jing replied truthfully, he really didn't believe in Brother Xun'er's vision in investment.

Bang, the phone hung up.

Gan Jing didn't call the phone immediately, but first edited a text message and sent it to Zhou Pu to ask about LeTV, and then found Sun Honglei's phone to dial.

"Brother Honglei, it's me. Gan Jing reported to himself.

"Your number has changed again?" Sun Honglei saw an unfamiliar number, but when he heard the voice, he immediately heard it, pretending to be angry.

"I didn't just change it, so I quickly called you to inform you. Gan Jing has a heartbeat.

Sun Honglei groaned slightly: "For the sake of your high box office, I will temporarily accept your statement." ”

"Haha. ”

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Gan Jingcai asked the topic and learned from him about LETV sports investment, and then, he heard Sun Honglei's introduction, and learned a little about LETV's boss Jia Yueting, and knew a slogan.

- Let's suffocate our dreams together.

Well, it's hot-blooded, it's suffocating.

On the phone, Sun Honglei also strongly recommended the investment opportunity of LeTV Sports, and also told Forrest Gump who the relevant investment or the person who intends to invest is more detailed.

There are about a dozen star actors in the circle, and the initial investment amount is more than 200 million.

Speaking of which, this Jia Yueting is half of the entertainment industry, and his wife Gan Wei is an actor, and he has made friends with some insiders, and this investment is a win-win situation.

And so and so, and so on.

Gan Jing touched the mobile phone that he hung up, rubbed his chin, and soon received a reply from Zhou Pu, "I heard that it is going to engage in some LeTV ecology, the situation is unknown, and it is not recommended to contact it for the time being."

Although Zhou Pu has not joined for too long, after this period of contact, Gan Jing is still very relieved of him, and he will see this somewhat tactful text message, and roughly understand the meaning of this right-hand man.

He took his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Gongzi: "Hey, Brother Xun, do you have any spare money recently?"

"Yes, I don't want to play sports. Zhou Gongzi replied very simply.

"There's a chance, why don't we invest together?" Gan Jing imitated the tone of Brother Xun on the phone not long ago.

Zhou Gongzi was a little strange and asked, "Aren't you investing in LeTV Sports together?"

Gan Jing shook his head again and again with his mobile phone: "No, no, no, I contacted a company here and is going to join a ticket-selling project, which is to sell movie tickets, how about it?"

Zhou Gongzi said with disdain: "Selling tickets? ”

Not......

Gan Jing took a breath: "This is a professional counterpart, I only went to talk about good things two days ago, and it just happened that it was easier for multiple people to have capital turnover, I had offline experience before, and now many people have pre-purchased tickets from above." ”

Compared with the sports projects that are a bit tall and high-ranking listed companies do, and the ticket-selling projects done by non-listed companies, it sounds like the latter is indeed more down-to-earth.

"Can it be listed, when will it be profitable?" Zhou Gongzi, as a layman, asked a pain point.

"Introduce ......"

"When will it be profitable?"

"Introduce ......"

Gan Jing's brain turned quickly, and he replied with righteousness and awe: "Instead of suffocating for the dreams of other industries, it is better to suffocate with the dreams of our own industries." Anyway, it's all suffocation, and the suffocation here is familiar. ”

That sounds reasonable.

As a famous studio, a famous actress, and a famous irrational actor, Zhou Xun changed his plans after a short period of thought.

"Okay, then I'll vote for you with 20 million first. Remember to divide my money later. "The weekly message is very neat, although today's phone call seems to have changed a little bit.

Gan Jing agreed, hung up the phone, and notified Lao Chen and Zhou Pu that they were ready to receive this ill-gotten gain, no, it was this windfall, no, it was this unexpected investment!

I made a few phone calls, chatted for a while, and described the situation in the studio, and half a day passed quickly.

As of today, the box office statistics on the table already show the box office performance of Life of Pi and Batman: The Dark Knight Rise, which are still in theaters.

The former is close to being released, and the current box office is 650 million in China.

In the first three weeks of the latter, the domestic was 400 million, and the global has exceeded 500 million US dollars.

The day before yesterday, Gan Jingyou updated a news on Weibo, calling on fans to help him break the domestic 700 million of Youth School, because there is not much time left for the release.

In two days, it grew from the original 630 million to 650 million, that is, the box office of 20 million in two days.

According to the box office drop curve, the media and the studio predicted that the box office of Youth Pi in the last week would be more than 20 million, but in two days, it bucked the trend and completed a week's volume.

If you have to find a variable that affects the box office, it can only be because of Forrest Gump's Weibo.

A Weibo call for a box office of 20 million in two days.

This is the influence of acting masters and oriental actors.

For a while, many people in the industry noticed this detail and had to secretly smack their tongues.

Previously, Huayi and Guangguang adjusted the release of their own films and avoided Forrest Gump's two blockbusters, which really caused ridicule from many people, but now the two blockbusters are selling well, and Forrest Gump's words are sprinting, which is really impressive.

Looking at the box office of the first iron films or the films that had to rush to the shelves in the same period, the word "service" was written in tears in the gloom.

December 15th, still Friday, but this time it was a sunny day.

"Life of Pi" was released in China, and its domestic box office closed at 710 million, a figure that satisfied the studio, Warner, and Forrest Gump himself.

Because of this, Gan Jing held a celebration dinner.

If it were him, this dinner would be so troublesome, then he wouldn't do it, but with a large family in the studio, under the box office of such a blockbuster, it is still necessary to hold a dinner to boost morale.

However, Gan Jing still added one thing, this night is not only a celebration banquet for his film to break 7 at the domestic box office, but also a celebration banquet for director Zhou Shen's "Grandson from the United States".

Well, it's been a while since the finale, but the editing has just been completed and has not been released.

If you have to talk about celebrating, Gan Jing insisted on a banquet to celebrate the success of the editing, and forced Zhou Shen to let him open everyone's eyes as half of the protagonist, of course, Zhou Dongyu and Chen Xiaojun are naturally indispensable here.

It's not just my family members who are present tonight, but also many insiders and film and television companies to meet - if Zhou Shen is opened alone, then there is no reason to invite others, and today's opportunity is not easy.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Forrest Gump wants to praise the young director Zhou Shen, but when the actor is holding two blockbusters into hot sales, everyone is willing to sell well.

Huayi is Wang Zhonglei with Huang Xiaoming, Yang Ying, Tong Dawei and others.

The light is that Wang Weitian showed up with Liu Yan, Wang Baoqiao, Bao Bell and others.

As for the Emperor and Anle Films who are cooperating and have cooperated, they are naturally present, and there are many other actors who have dealt with and met to try to be auspicious.

Zhou Xun, Sun Honglei and other actors with relatively large coffee positions also arrived when they were free, and they chatted with each other very lively.

It can be said that this celebration banquet shocked the entertainment industry very much.

Opening speeches, celebration wine, fancy toasting, fancy dodging...... After the whole scene, Gan Jing took Zhou Shen, Zhou Dongyu, Chen Xiaojun and Lao Chen to meet everyone present, regardless of their level.

Forrest Gump's studio, the face revealed at the celebration banquet is sincere and not proud, but it is really vibrant.

In the end, it was still a relentless speech on stage.

"Thank you very much for coming, I love acting, I love to bring good works, and I am fortunate to be recognized by some audiences and peers. Forrest Gump Studio has just started, and I am very willing to have a good cooperation with you. ”

"Zhou Shen, Zhou Dongyu, Chen Xiaojun, they are still a little immature, if there is anything inconsiderate in the future, please forgive me and give young people more opportunities. ”

Half of the purpose of this celebration banquet is still for these three people, Gan Jing toasted a glass of wine on the stage, and said: "I hope that Chinese movies will get better and better, and I hope that the Chinese market will get bigger and bigger." ”

At this point, he paused, paused for two seconds, and smiled.

"I also hope that Huaxia will produce an Oscar winner. ”

It's already mid-December, and it's not far from the Oscars in February.

The audience was silent for three seconds, and the same applause rang out from different people with different emotions.

Drink and toast together.

This glass of wine tastes.
