Chapter 649: Do it yourself this time
After sending Zhang Hanyu away, Song Zheng followed and went out to the studio, thinking about changing the office location a year ago, and also asked Su Wenwen to find a good place at that time, but because of the decoration, he has not moved there yet. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The 1+1 studio can only live in a snail's house for the time being, but compared with the music studio run by Gao Xiaosong, the conditions are much better, and Gao Fatzi is still nested in his own simple recording studio, busy with Song Zheng and Lin Xinru's album work.
"Where's Wenwen!?"
"Sister Wenwen is upstairs!"
Song Zheng went upstairs and arrived at the door of Su Wenwen's office, and before he could push the door in, he heard Su Wenwen shouting inside, as if he was talking about something about the end of "Crazy Stone".
Song Zheng pushed the door in, Su Wenwen saw that Song Zheng just nodded and signaled, and then continued to quarrel with the other party and make a fuss, probably because the girl was tired, and finally formed a compromise with the other party, so she hung up the phone.
Song Zheng saw Su Wenwen sitting on the chair angrily, with a straight face, without saying a word, poured her a glass of water, put it in front of her, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Who made you angry!?"
Su Wenwen said angrily: "Who else can it be, it's not those cinema merchants, all of them are black-hearted businessmen, no matter how much they make, they don't know how satisfied!"
Song Zheng smiled and didn't answer, he actually knew all the things that Su Wenwen was angry about, although there were also dissatisfactions, but this kind of thing is the norm in China, cinema companies have resources, and many cinemas were originally state-owned, during the release of a movie, concealing the box office, and blocking the producer to divide this kind of thing, almost every movie has encountered it.
"Alright, don't be angry, it's not the first time!"
For this kind of thing, Song Zheng has long seen it, as long as the other party is not too excessive, he will open one eye and close one eye, before the release of "Night Club", it has been two months, and the balance has not been settled, and it was finally settled later, and when the account was settled, it was found that nearly two million shares were deducted and did not arrive.
At that time, Su Wenwen even wanted to sue to get it back, but in the end he was stopped by Song Zheng, even if this kind of lawsuit is won, what can it do?
People gave you money, how can you cooperate in the future!?
What Su Wenwen said on the phone just now, although Song Zheng didn't listen carefully, he could think of it, and the box office that should be given was stuck, and the theater company's mind was actually very simple, that is, to talk about the conditions and get kickbacks with the money, this is all a matter of convention, although it is dirty, but no one has a problem.
Hollywood is not awesome!
You have to accept this unspoken rule, unless you don't want your film to be released in China, as long as you come, those theater companies in China have a way to make you accept their unspoken rules.
"How can I not be angry, they are too dark!"
Song Zheng smiled: "It's not worth it! It's not the first time you've met them, no one has anything to do with this kind of thing, besides, the remaining balance is not much, just give them a little, and take back the rest!"
Su Wenwen also knew that he was so angry that he couldn't change the matter, so he could only accept his fate and said, "I just told the other party that I was okay, so be it!
Song Zheng listened and said, "That's right, how about it? How much can our studio make in the end!?"
Su Wenwen said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Zheng, you are the boss, why don't you care about anything, wait until the final payment arrives, in addition to the original investment, publicity expenses, taxes that should be paid, and money that should be paid, in the end, our studio will probably be able to earn 54 million!"
If it was placed in the past, such a big number, Song Zheng could scare out a heart attack, but now it is different, "Crazy Stone" has a box office of over 100 million and has earned 57 million, but it is not much more than him making TV series, the previous "My Leader, My Group" made a lot of 70 million, "Blood Romance" is more, nearly 80 million in income, and even "Male Talent and Female Appearance" finally earned 50 million.
People say that the film and television industry is not easy to mix, but here in Song Zheng, that law obviously does not hold, of course, no one has the rebirth advantage he has, those popular film and television dramas, it would be good if other film and television production companies could make one in ten years, but it was produced by 1+1 studios, and all of them were classics.
Who in the circle doesn't know the fame of the 1+1 studio, in the past year, all the income of the 1+1 studio has been added together, and it has earned more than 200 million, who can do it in other people's homes?
It's only jealousy!
Song Zheng is very adaptable to this kind of role change, in the past, in order to live, he had to sing on the street, and he could fly happily if he earned one or two hundred, but now, unconsciously, he has completed the transformation from poor to rich and handsome, worth more than 100 million, he is very calm, and he doesn't feel too excited.
Even if it weren't for Song Jiahui's sudden appearance, Song Zheng wouldn't have remembered to move, and he might still be living in that small house!
"The results are good, by the way!How is Ning Hao's film now!?"
Song Zheng has been busy since the end of the New Year, where does he have time to pay attention to Ning Hao's filming progress, and now he just thinks about it and asks.
"I just called yesterday, and I heard him say that it's almost done now, and it will be finished in two weeks, but, Brother Zheng! A "Hurricane Rescue" and a "Crazy Racing" are all released in the summer, so is it really good to compete internally!?"
Song Zheng said with a smile: "Otherwise, how about it? Move it to the Lunar New Year file to be released, don't forget, when the time comes, there will be Lao Feng's "No Thieves in the World"!"
When Su Wenwen heard this, he said, "What's the matter, Brother Zheng! Director Feng is already ready!?"
Song Zheng said: "It's almost, we just made an appointment to meet yesterday, and it should be released in a few days!"
"But as soon as the filming of "No Thieves in the World" starts, what will happen to the publicity of "Hurricane Rescue"!?"
"What else can I do? Run at both ends!" Song Zheng said, suddenly thinking of today's business, "Wenwen, do you remember the adaptation rights of the novel I asked you to talk about last time?"
Su Wenwen thought for a while and said, "Remember! One is "There Are No Thieves in the World", and the other is called "Lawsuit" ~~~~~~~. ”
As soon as Su Wenwen finished speaking, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Song Zheng and said, "Brother, are you planning to shoot the novel "Lawsuit" again!"
Song Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Then what can be done? If the task explained above cannot be completed, I will be the first to be unlucky!"
Su Wenwen's gaze at Song Zheng was full of pity, and said, "Brother Zheng, you are not afraid of exhausting yourself to death!"
How can this unlucky boy speak!
"It's okay! I'm alive when you're dead!"
Su Wenwen glanced at Song Zheng, and then said: "But, Brother Zheng, you have to film "No Thieves in the World", "Hurricane Rescue", and "Lawsuit", are you ~~~~~~~~ busy!?"
"It's okay if you can't be busy!" Song Zheng's expression was full of helplessness, and he didn't know when he became so busy, "What to do, I will coordinate it, you just need to make preparations." ”
You deserve to be exhausted!
Su Wenwen thought angrily that he was kind, but Song Zheng said that he was nosy.
"Okay, but how much money are you going to invest in this play!?"
Song Zheng thought about it in his heart, he remembered the original "Assembly Number" After the release, Feng Xiaogang said in an interview that the total investment of this drama reached 100 million, of which the production cost was 80 million, the publicity cost was 20 million, and some other expenses.
"You prepare 50 million in advance, and leave 15 million for publicity!"
The total investment is 65 million!?
Su Wenwen was directly shocked, "Hurricane Rescue" was filmed abroad, a helicopter was used, and the initial investment was only 50 million, and Song Zheng wanted to adapt and shoot the novel "Lawsuit", which actually required an investment of 65 million.
"Brother Zheng, are you planning to burn money!?Such a big investment, in case it ~~~~~~?"
Su Wenwen didn't finish speaking, it was because she didn't want to say something depressing, but just like she thought, once this movie was released, the reaction was cold, and if she lost it, although the 1+1 studio would not close down, it would at least be greatly damaged.
Now that the development of the studio has been on the right track, it is the time when it is necessary to produce more good works, accumulate popularity, and expand its influence, what is needed is to seek stability, and suddenly want to spend 65 million to make a big production with an unpredictable future, in Su Wenwen's opinion, this is simply crazy.
Song Zheng can understand Su Wenwen's worries, but how could this movie fail: "Don't worry, you still don't believe in my vision!"
Su Wenwen was speechless all of a sudden, although he felt unreliable no matter how much his vision sounded, but Su Wenwen also had to admit that Song Zheng's vision was really good, he saw the movies and TV series he had invested in, and so far, none of them have lost money, even if they can't be released in China, "Incense" and "Blind Well", and when they are taken abroad, they make a lot of money.
However, Su Wenwen is still not at ease, although the studio's current funds are abundant, it is not yet the time to be so generous: "Brother Zheng, if we find Huayi Brothers to jointly invest, we can also share the risk!"
Looking for Wang Zhongjun to invest!?
It's not that Song Zheng hasn't thought about it, but the question is, do Huayi Brothers still have money now?
"Forget it! we'll do it ourselves this time!"
