"Why are you talking so much today?"

Back at the company, Li Manyuan suddenly asked.

Liu Dong was stunned for a moment, "What?"

Li Manyuan glanced at him up and down, with a strange expression, "Today, you always inquire about Wen Jun's movie, intentionally or unintentionally, what do you want to do?"

After more than two years of cooperation, Li Manyuan couldn't know Liu Dong better.

On this occasion, he is a person who has nothing to do with him at all, Liu Dong usually deals with a few words casually, and leaves the rest to Li Manyuan.

She saw through Liu Dong at a glance that something was in her heart.

Liu Dong touched his nose, this is too fine, but if he says two more words, he can find abnormalities, is Li Manyuan's previous profession a detective?

"Do you have an idea for that movie and want to star in it?"

"That's a comedy, it's completely out of line with your play, and it's not suitable for your appearance!" Li Manyuan advised.

Liu Dong breathed a sigh of relief, if she really guessed that she had the idea of investing, it would be too scary.

He immediately said, "How is it possible, making comedy is either talented or suitable in appearance, I don't account for either of these two points, and I won't find myself boring." ”

"Then you still care so much about that movie?" Li Manyuan obviously didn't believe it.

"It's... Actually, I want to invest, doesn't Wen Jun still have a funding gap of 5 million, I want to participate in a share!"

Li Manyuan frowned, did not refute out loud, and waited for him to continue to explain.

"You listen to my analysis first, this is a comedy movie, the audience is light, and the subject matter is very close to life, the audience should be interested, as long as the quality of the film is passed, there should be no problem in recovering the cost. ”

Li Manyuan listened to him fixedly, and asked rhetorically, "So you plan to sell the house and invest?"

"The house is not for sale, find a bank mortgage!"

"Do you really think that Wen Jun is less than the 5 million funds?" Li Manyuan shook her head a little funny.

"What do you mean?" Liu Dong frowned.

"He is not only less than 5 million, with his status in the Xiangjiang film industry, it is easy to attract 5 million investment, what is really lacking is 5 million investment from Berner. Li Manyuan said.

"Only the films invested by Berner will enjoy a higher level of publicity and distribution resources, otherwise except for some very potential films, this kind of small-budget films with millions of investments, Berner will not waste too many resources on it at all!"

...

Liu Dong was speechless for a while, feeling that his 5 million others may not necessarily see it.

However, Liu Dong remembered that "People in Embarrassment" was not invested by Berner, nor was it Huayi or Guangxian, it seemed to be a small company with little reputation.

Later, Guangxian recruited Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang to shoot "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand", and after the box office hit, they were sued by the original investors in court and claimed 100 million yuan in copyright fees.

However, of course, Guangxian can't spend this 100 million in vain, in fact, two companies that are not at the same level at all talk about copyright is nonsense.

The family is "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand", from the title to the plot to the characters in the film, it has nothing to do with "People in Embarrassment", and in the end, the company that should have lost the lawsuit.

In fact, everyone knows that "Thai Embarrassment" has been under the sign of the sequel to "People in Embarrassment" from production to publicity, but the official did not say it explicitly.

This is the sadness of a small company, holding a big IP and finally achieving others.

In the end, the embarrassment series became the trump card of Guangxian, even if other companies followed Guangxian's approach, they couldn't pull Xu Zheng away.

So that is to say, even if Liu Dong invests in "People in Embarrassment", then Wen Jun can completely kick himself away when filming the sequel, or who is the optical fiber, and like history, Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang were found to shoot "Thai Embarrassment", and the later embarrassment series will have nothing to do with him.

If you don't hang enough, you can't do it, people can press you to the ground at will, and then take away the fruits of victory.

However, Liu Dong was still a little unwilling, looking at a mountain of gold, even if he couldn't move it all, he would have to pry off a large piece, and how much could it hold.

"Then if I pull Berner to make a little bit of a difference, Wen Jun should accept it, right?" Liu Dong thought for a while and said.

"I shouldn't refuse!" Li Manyuan nodded.

"Are you really so optimistic about this project?

"My gut tells me it's going to be a dark horse, like Crazy Stone!" Liu Dong affirmed.

"Since you've decided, I'll help you take a trip to Berna, and it shouldn't be difficult for them to make a million or two. ”

Li Manyuan unexpectedly did not refute, and it was a little strange to let Liu Dong go.

"You won't persuade me anymore?"

"Why should I persuade you?"

"Investment is risky!"

"It's your own money to spend, since you've decided, what else do I say?" Li Manyuan said as a matter of course.

“......”

What she said was so reasonable, it made Liu Dong have nothing to say.

"Your salary is not low now, it is impossible to use all the money to buy a house in the future, you must always make some investments appropriately, no matter which industry has profits and losses, it is of course good to make money at the beginning, even if you fail, you will learn a lesson, and then make a decision after a complete investigation and analysis in the future!" Li Manyuan admonished.

"You still don't believe that this movie can be profitable?" Liu Dong frowned.

"There is no market for this kind of comedy with mainland characteristics in Southeast Asia, with a distribution fee of 10 points, 7 million investment requires 20 million box office to be able to return to the cost, you go to check how many movies with a box office of more than 20 million last year, and a few with an investment of less than 10 million. ”

"There is no need to check, last year, there were a total of 11 domestic films with a box office of more than 20 million, none of which had an investment of less than 10 million, and none of which were comedies. ”

Liu Dong still remembers this data very clearly, and after counting it, he found that there was really none.

According to probability statistics, all professional filmmakers do not think that this film can recover its costs, no wonder Zheng Ye is unwilling to invest.

"Then do you still want to invest?" Li Manyuan asked with a smile.

"Of course, I trust my intuition, if the box office can be calculated by analysis, there will not be so many dark horses!" Liu Dong said confidently.

Li Manyuan shook her head helplessly, "Then I'll go to Bernard later, but the income distribution may not be calculated according to the proportion of investment, you have to be mentally prepared!"

"It's okay, as long as it's not too outrageous, it's acceptable!"

This is also a helpless thing, after all, others have resources, and of course the same investment should be a little more.

first invested in "People in Embarrassment", with Berner joining, optical fiber can't steal this series.

And "Thai Embarrassment" is not in a hurry to set up a project, it was originally a project that was only launched in 12 years, and at that time he should also have a certain amount of capital to talk to Berna.

After the fire of "Thai Embarrassment", Xu Zheng also participated in the investment of "Hong Kong Embarrassment", and the proportion is not small.
