"10 million a year, as long as the priority?" Yue Qingyan didn't think it was a reasonable price.

It's a very good price for him, but it doesn't seem fair, at least for now. If Yue Qingyan is now one of the top authors in the Chinese literary circle, or an author of the magnitude of JK Rowling and George Martin, who has been proven in the global market, then 10 million a year will be given priority, which can be regarded as a very preferential and face-saving cooperation. But at least now Yue Qingyan is not qualified.

Fair transactions are the most important thing to ensure that everyone can work together for a long time.

"Master Chen, otherwise. You are an important part of the overall project that can be established. I, you, the Hong Kong Police Force, and Red Horse Publishing each own a 5% undiluted stake in the entire project. At the same time, you have a 10% guaranteed investment option in any sub-project. This part of the authority is valued at 30 million and paid in three years. How?" Yue Qingyan thought for a while and suggested.

"Yes," Chen Xinghong understood the difference between Yue Qingyan's proposal after a little thought. He didn't hesitate.

It's the same 10 million a year, divided into three years, and he doesn't get anything practical now, except for 5% of the total equity. For the 5% to be established, it must be after the entire project can be established and the second and third phases of the project are rolled out. But before that, everyone should invest and invest, and there is not much difference between doing things and doing things. In fact, what Yue Qingyan promised Chen Xinghong was only more than 10% of the investment options for any project. This is not a dividend right, it just means that you can contribute at least 10% of your money and enjoy the same proportion of income. If the whole project loses, you also lose.

However, Yue Qingyan's proposal gave guarantees at both the short-term and long-term levels. In the short term, of course, everyone will work together to get things done, and in the long term, if this project can be established, then 5% of the equity that will not be diluted will be powerful.

Even if it's an investment option, don't look at 10% is not much. In large-scale film and television projects, it is already a considerable proportion. For a mature film and television project, it is very good that the project sponsor can guarantee 10% of the equity in the end.

For example: film and television company A came up with a pretty good project, with a story and ideas, and determined the starring and director, they evaluated that the project could be completed with a group of 20 million, and then spend 10 million for distribution, and 10 million for publicity. With such an investment, the box office is about a few hundred million yuan. Film and television company B knew about the project, found company A, and said that I know your project is very good, I will add pounds, on the one hand, invest money, on the other hand, add a blockbuster actor, and then join the special effects team, or let you company A be the main control, but to make money with us. In this way, the original plate of 40 million was doubled and became 80 million, and Company B, because it was later, just added pounds, and the money was the same as the resources, but of course it was impossible to have the same right to speak. There are six companies and four companies, and only 60% of company A is left. Then, Company C adds a pound, and they stuff a few supporting roles, as well as some related resources in. The whole plate is 100 million.

The distribution company heard about it, this project is good, it can make money, and I will come too. Originally, the distribution fee of your film was 40 million, and I won't charge you any money. Let me use the distribution fee to buy shares, and I'll give you a guaranteed box office. There is a guaranteed box office, everyone says it's good. So the plate is 140 million.

Actor so-and-so, as soon as I heard that there was such a project, the role was a match made in heaven with myself, and I wanted to come too. Originally, I wanted a salary of 60 million, but you give me 500 so that I can pay my team's salary, and the rest is my investment. Well, the project has a disk of 200 million.

The commercial real estate company said, alas, this is good, I also want to vote, you make the scene bigger, and use mine for the scenes you need. How much cash do I give, how much venue resources, how much publicity resources, count 2000. Well, 220 million.

Clothing, luxury goods, and the like are all added, how much. Scrape together 250 million.

Then a big guy in terms of publicity and distribution said: You originally said that 1,000 yuan was announced, and now it is not enough, right? Such a big market, how can you have to publicize it for 40 or 50 million, I will collect 1000 cash from you, and then the rest will be mine, and I will integrate resources for you to do.

300 million...... A project has made up 300 million plates. And at the beginning, it was really a leftover project that Company A could do for tens of millions. Now, Company A is not unhappy, their total investment has not changed, but the value of the money invested in the whole project, because of the first-mover advantage and because of the coordination relationship, is greater than the investment. Privately, you can debond the proportion of this part and take out a round. Even if you don't have enough money, you can sell it for a round. (This is the case with many wealth management products in the entertainment industry...... ）

How much voting power does Company A have left in the end? More than 20%, but no one has a higher proportion than them anyway, as long as the relationship is well coordinated, they are the boss. But this production hair is only such a small proportion.

However, for a project of tens of millions and a project of hundreds of millions, the pressure to recover investment is completely different. It turns out that with a small investment and small production, maybe everyone will come back after selling face. But now that he has made up 300 million yuan in the project, he may claim to have invested 500 million or 600 million yuan, which is the same thing as Cao Cao's 230,000 people who went south to falsely claim to be a million army. So how much box office will it take to get it back?

A billion. Basically, one-third of the total box office is divided among the producers. Therefore, if you don't make money by watching a film, just take a look at the data. Of course, some films buy box office and fake data at the beginning, and it is definitely a net investment of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800.

To do this business, everyone understands that this is the case, and the specific proportion of specific projects is different. It's really not unreasonable to see that the opening LOGO time and subtitle time of Chinese movies are getting longer and longer.

And as everyone knows, it takes a lot of coordination and determination to be able to promise a 10% investment option. Some garbage projects can't ask for money, but some good projects, but there is no one's money that is not money, you vote for me and it is the same. Sometimes the producer is really not willing to ask for this money if he sees that an investor only has money and no other matching resources.

This Hong Kong local series of themes is undoubtedly a good theme, a theme that is too good to be imagined. What reason does Chen Xinghong have to refuse such a quid pro quo that seems to be vague, but is actually full of sincerity?

Chen Xinghong thought for a while and said, "Don't divide 30 million into three years." I'll show it to you. ”

Zhu Yu hurriedly smiled and said, "You are going to kill me if you come like this." Xiao Yue said so, I also think it's reasonable, this year, 10 million of our red horses will also come out. Let me take out 30 million at once, and the pressure is not small. ”

Chen Xinghong said with a smile: "The Hong Kong Police Force doesn't have to pay for it? ”

"The Hong Kong Police Force can't hold this kind of shares, most of them are held by a fund or a quasi-government. They don't have to pay, but they have to provide full government relationship endorsement and all security guarantees. Not only the police force, but also the relationship between government agencies, stock exchanges, banks, fire brigades, etc., have to be resolved by them. After all, it's not for nothing, and it's a lot of work. Zhu Yu explained.

"Hahahaha, of course I understand this. Chen Xinghong said: "Then I wish us a happy cooperation." ”

Yue Qingyan thought for a moment and said, "You are willing to give me money, but I didn't say I wanted it." If both of you are willing to come up with the money in advance, then I have an idea. How about finding a place in the middle of nowhere and building a village?"

"Studio?" Zhu Yu reacted.

"It can be used as a studio, starting from the 40s, an era to make an area or street, there are interior and exterior scenes that can be used. Attention to detail is required, but consider hiding a lot of modern amenities or camouflaging them as vintage. In this way, from the 40s to the present, it is unlikely that it will be divided in 10 years, but at least there are four or five thematic communities. And then with some special design and project settings. For example, restoring a production line that was back in the day when Hong Kong's industry accounted for 23% of GDP was just used to make souvenirs that could be sold. Another example is the reproduction of catering from various periods?"

"Damn, this is Hong Kong's zeitgeist paradise. Chen Xinghong's hair exploded all over his body. "Then, it becomes a commercial real estate project and a tourism project, and then, in conjunction with such a core area, a number of commercial real estate and residential land are built. There are also supporting facilities and service facilities...... That's a big deal. However, in this way, 60 million yuan is not enough, is it? Not to mention 60 million, it is estimated that if you continue to invest, 6 billion yuan is enough, and Hong Kong is not as high as the mainland, and the cost of labor and so on is too high. The import of all kinds of materials is also fatal. ”

Yue Qingyan said lightly: "I didn't say that 60 million yuan was used to do this project, 60 million yuan, but it was just used to hire a design team and experts who are familiar with the changes in Hong Kong's literature and history to do the design." Then take out some of it for publicity. There are some construction and construction costs, which in turn can be counted in film and television investment projects. You said that the 60 million yuan was given to me, but you didn't pay for this project?

"What do you mean...... We ......" Zhu Yu was a little dumbfounded. Yue Qingyan didn't know if the plate he was talking about could really be done, and the status of these people present would all be different.

"I mean it very simply. In fact, the entire Hong Kong Story series trilogy is just a promotional video for this project. Yue Qingyan said with a smile: "However, if it is operated properly, these promotional films will not only not lose money, but also make a lot of money." If the box office is really high enough and the operation is good enough, maybe relying on the box office of the entire series, of course, it will not be able to build the entire park, and it is still possible to build a few landmark buildings. ”

Everyone chatted and added, and Chen Xinghong's assistant was so excited that he trembled. If this thing can really be done, then Xinghong Group will be the vanguard of reviving the spirit of Hong Kong, and even revitalizing Hong Kong's economy, and its status will be directly brushed to the top.

Three days later, when Yue Qingyan, accompanied by Zhu Yu, took such a plan to meet Luo Kangping, the deputy commissioner of police of the Hong Kong Police Force, it took Luo Kangping about three to five minutes to go from calm to headache. Then he stood up and said:

"Mr. Yue, I asked my assistant to take you on a tour of our Hong Kong Police Headquarters Building, and if you are interested, you can also go and see the training and mission of any department of the Hong Kong Police Force. Have fun. I'll have to take this and report it to the Commissioner of Police, the Secretary for Security, and then I'll probably have to negotiate and evaluate it with the various departments as soon as possible. However, I think that such a promising cooperation should be of great interest to everyone. ”

Of course, Yue Qingyan agreed with a smile. Although it was not entirely intentional, through such a one-turn cooperation project, Yue Qingyan turned the cash he was not ready to get into the first driving force that could leverage huge funds and industrial chains. In this sense, he really doesn't have to care about the priority value of 10 million that year.
