Chapter 1066: The Movie Master Wants to Invest

Although Wu Cheng was not very interested in these filmmakers coming to visit, he had to show some patience to receive them, so that each other's faces would not be too ugly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, for Zhong Chuhong, these people are a little annoying.

Before coming, Wu Cheng had talked with them about the Tangquan culture here on Ridao, and talked about the old days when he came here with Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia.

Come to think of it, that was years ago.

At that time, his relationship with them was actually not deep to that point. At that time, Deng Lijun was singing on the island side, and he came over to support her, just to deepen the relationship between them. And obviously, that time, he ran right!

When we talk about these things now, it seems like yesterday.

But Deng Lijun has now given birth to a daughter and a son for him, and Lin Qingxia has also given birth to a daughter for him, seeing that the second little life in her womb will also fall to the ground.

I have to say, time flies indeed!

When they mentioned these things to Zhong Chuhong, they wanted him to take them to feel it too. Whether it was jealousy or something else is unknown.

In short, Zhong Chuhong at this time was a little unhappy with those Japanese island movie masters, and he was scolding his mother in a low voice in Xiangjiang dialect.

Of course, she avoids them when she scolds.

Because they were sitting in the hall of the suite, chatting, and next to them there was a woman who knew a tea ceremony making tea for them. Zhong Chuhong and Lan Jieying were 'resting' in the bedroom.

Listening to Zhong Chuhong lying there, reading those things in her mouth, Lan Jieying, who was lying next to her, laughed in a low voice, thinking it was very interesting.

Although she was a little unhappy that she couldn't go out to the hot spring with her brother right away, she was not as spicy as Zhong Chuhong.

For her, even if she is unhappy, she is usually just pouting, and she will not directly swear like Zhong Chuhong.

It's not that she doesn't know how to swear, the first time she met Wu Cheng, she was almost beaten for scolding the fat woman, if Wu Cheng hadn't appeared at that time, she might have been beaten.

Later, after gradually getting in touch with Wu Cheng, she knew that Wu Cheng didn't want the girl to scold, so she gradually got rid of this bad habit.

So much so that by now, she doesn't know how to scold!

Looking at Lan Jieying's smiling face, Zhong Chuhong glared at her, reached out and slapped her buttocks hard, so painful that she couldn't help but cover her little buttocks and exclaimed.

At this time, the communication outside had ended, and those masters got up to say goodbye, and made an appointment to find a time to chat again. In fact, Wu Chengzhen didn't want to continue communicating with them.

I feel that there is nothing to say, maybe it is because these directors are all old and have a certain generation gap!

However, Master Hei Zeming got up and waited for the people to leave, and then sat down again.

Seeing this situation, Wu Cheng was a little strange.

Hei Zeming smiled slightly and said, "That's the case, I've been preparing to put Shakespeare's famous "King Lear" on the screen, I wonder if Mr. Wu is interested in participating in the investment?"

As I said before, Wu Cheng doesn't know much about the movies of this film master, and he rarely paid attention to his movies in his previous life, let alone watched them.

He only knows one name for this master of cinema.

Yes, he didn't know which movie "King Lear" Hei Zeming wanted to adapt, and he didn't know whether that movie would make money or lose in the end.

Hei Zeming needs to find investment to make a movie, and this really doesn't need to be an accident. Because when he filmed "Shadow Samurai" in 80, he looked for Lucas and Coppola.

Wu Cheng also knew about this.

Therefore, even if Hei Zeming is a master of film, when he wants to make movies, not everyone is willing to invest.

Why?

Because the reason why a master is a master is because the artistic component in the films he shoots is relatively high. And movies with high artistic content are often not so great at the box office. And what is most important to investors?

Why is this old man willing to pay a high price to buy a script from Wu Cheng? Why is Hollywood willing to pay millions of dollars for him to direct a movie?

There is only one reason, the movies he makes can make money!

Looking at the movies he made, looking at the scripts he wrote, none of them lost money. Even some Xiangjiang movies can make a lot of money.

Not to mention the blockbuster films in recent years.

If you want to ask which director has the highest commercial value in the global film industry, countless people must think of Wu Cheng first, not Spielberg.

Although Spielberg is now the world box office record holder, the script for his "Alien ET" was written by Wu Cheng.

Therefore, it is also a master, but in the eyes of those investors, its weight and status are still different. Maybe in terms of the artistry of the movie, Wu Cheng will be inferior to those masters, but in terms of earning power, those masters are unattainable.

Whoever is an investor knows whose movie to invest in!

It's just a pity that Wu Cheng's movies have always been invested by his own company, and other investors have never had the opportunity to get involved.

Yes, it is really not strange that Hei Zeming will lack funds for filming.

So Wu Cheng asked him, how much are you going to invest in this drama?

Kuroze said that it is estimated to be two billion yen.

At this time, the yen was about 200 yen against the dollar, which was about 200 yen. Today, one dollar to the Hong Kong dollar is more than seven dollars.

In other words, 2 billion yen, which is about 150 million Hong Kong dollars.

One can imagine how big the investment in this movie is!

Although this investment is on the Hollywood side, it is actually very ordinary, but it is only 20 million US dollars. But this investment is placed on the side of Southeast Asia, but it is really not small.

Even the most profitable "Black Man" filmed by Wu Cheng has only more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Of course, this is the result of the price reduction of his own salary.

Otherwise, with his multi-million dollar director's salary, the investment in this movie is not enough for his personal salary!

However, the result of the film salary is naturally his own share of the film.

Many big-name Hollywood actors, or big-name directors, have the right to participate in the box office. Just like when Hepburn reappeared and took over the film, what she adopted was an agreement to share the box office. The more successful the film, the more 'salary' she can get.

However, one thing that can be reassuring is that Hei Zeming is different from many directors in Xiangjiang, and his directorial fame is still relatively popular in the world.

In other words, there is no problem at all with the release of his film in North America.

Therefore, with such an investment, if the film can be released in North America, there should be no problem in recovering the cost.

Therefore, he accepted this proposal without much hesitation.

In fact, more than that, I still want to drive this old man away.

As for the amount of investment, it is difficult to decide, and you need to discuss with several other investors before making a decision. And this kind of thing does not need Wu Cheng to participate in himself.

Donglong International also has an office on the island side of Japan.

As soon as the old man left, Wu Chengcai breathed a sigh of relief, got up and walked into the bedroom.

At this time, in the bedroom, Lan Jieying was being ridden by Zhong Chuhong, twisting her body, smiling and begging for mercy, her voice was relatively low, as if she didn't want to, or was worried about being heard by people outside the hall.

But obviously, they seem to ignore that the sound insulation here is still good.

Outside, you can't hear the slightest movement inside.

Seeing Wu Cheng push the door in, Lan Jieying on the bed raised her head, and Zhong Chuhong, who was riding on her, turned her head to the back, and both of them looked at him.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Wu Cheng's lips couldn't help twitching slightly.

Then, he coughed lightly and said, "You can go out for dinner, let's go!" After dinner, we will go out for a walk, and then go to enjoy the Tangquan culture here......

When the two of them heard this, they ended the 'battle', and then got up and tidied up their messy clothes and hair, and directly treated him as air. The bold Zhong Chuhong even changed his clothes directly in front of him, and he didn't even care about the thong pants exposed in front of him.

In contrast, Lan Jieying's skin is not as thick as her.

She turned her head to look at him, "Brother Cheng, can you wait for us outside for a while?"

Wu Cheng smiled, glared at Zhong Chuhong fiercely, then turned around and went out, closing the bedroom door with his hand. Then, the sound inside was cut off again.

Soon, the two changed their clothes and walked out, Zhong Chuhong was dressed casually, with a wide T-shirt and blue denim, a pair of Gaobang shoes squatting under her feet, and a sun hat on her head.

As for Lan Jieying, she is still dressed in a pure style, a very simple white one-piece dress. And he is also contrary to the usual suit and leather shoes, a sunny teenager dress, denim and T-shirt. Although the costume is simple, it can be matched with the two girls next to it.

The two of them followed him very well-behaved, and did not make any other emotions.

In fact, they all knew that this propaganda itinerary was actually a bit rushed, because in a few days, he would have to go back to Xiangjiang again. Over there in Xiangjiang, there are two expectant mothers waiting for him!

The movie "Legend of the Night" will be released globally in August, with only more than a month left for promotion, in addition to going to Southeast Asia, we have to continue to run to Europe and the United States in July, especially North America.

This itinerary is a bit rushed.

And in such a hurry, they have to find time to accompany them, and they naturally know that it is not easy. So when he goes out to play, Zhong Chuhong rarely fixes any demon moths.
