Chapter 0158 Investment

"This is Tiange, we call him Charlie again!"

Andy Lau introduced Wu Tian to Chen Guo with a smile.

"Hello. Chen Guo stretched out his hand to Wu Tian and said, and at the same time he remembered, isn't this heavenly song the mainland singer who wrote a new album for Wang Fei.

"Hello, Director Chen. Wu Tian shook hands with Chen Guo with a smile and said with a smile: "I heard Brother Fa and Director Wu Yusen talk about you before. ”

"Do you have cooperation with Fa Ge and Director Wu?"

Chen Guo was stunned for a moment, looking puzzled.

Wu Tian nodded and said, "Yes, the new film they are making is a book written by me, and I also invested a little money." ”

"Ah, you're talking about "Changing Face"?"

The expression on Chen Guo's face suddenly became excited, Wu Yusen has gained a firm foothold in Hollywood, and today he is filming another blockbuster, it is said that he invested more than 20 million dollars and invited Nicolas Cage and Zhou Yunfa to star, this thing made Chen Guo envious, but also strengthened his determination to follow his own path.

The young man in front of him turned out to be the script creator and investor of "Changing Face", I really can't see it.

However, Chen Guo did not doubt Wu Tian's words at all, and those who could laugh and talk to Wang Fei and Andy Lau did not need to lie to themselves about this kind of thing.

"yes, I'm very confident in this film, so I invested in the script and cash, and I'm looking forward to it. Wu Tian said this, mainly to arouse Chen Guo's interest, "I have contacted James Horner before, and he is also willing to help with the dubbing of the movie. ”

"James Horner ......"

Chen Guo was stunned, this is the most famous film music producer in Hollywood, Wu Tian can actually invite him?

Wang Fei saw Chen Guo's shocked expression, laughed, and introduced: "Director Chen, Charlie and James Horner are very good friends, Charlie is not only an investor in "Changing Face", but also sang the theme song for the film directed by Cameron......"

"Oh...... I remember, you are the soul singer Charlie, right?" Chen Guo opened his eyes wide, and suddenly realized: "I didn't expect that Charlie, who is famous for his name, is actually from our Chinese." ”

"It's just a name. Wu Tian said lightly.

Chen Guo was very enthusiastic at the moment, and said: "Charlie, you just said that you are very interested in movies, I am not planning to make a new movie, called "Made in Xingang", the story is like this......"

On the side, Andy Lau couldn't help but smile on his face, Chen Guo begged his father to sue his grandmother for this independently produced movie, and found a lot of people to invest, but because the film market is now sluggish, no one dares to invest casually, knowing that he has only made up 500,000 yuan now, and now when he sees Wu Tian, he actually started Wu Tian's idea, and he is also in a hurry to go to the doctor.

Wu Tian listened to Chen Guo's introduction, and thought that with fame, he would take the initiative to come to the door for any good thing, it seemed that he had to change his strategy, and he couldn't hide everything.

Just think about it, if he is unknown, even if he has money, Chen Guo will not take the initiative to invest in himself.

"Director Chen, I like your movies, you say, how much do you want me to invest?"

Hearing Wu Tian so refreshing, Chen Guo, who had just been talking about it, was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively: "Charlie, can you invest a million?"

Without waiting for Wu Tian to answer, he explained: "I raised 500,000 yuan before, but I still have to buy film, and the salaries of the cast and crew have not been settled......

Wu Tian smiled and said lightly: "One million is too little, I'll invest five million in you, I co-founded a cultural company in the mainland, and it just so happened that this time I set up a branch in Xingang, and Director Chen's film will be the company's first investment." ”

"Ah......h

Chen Guo was dumbfounded, just now he had the courage to say one million, and he didn't have much hope originally, saying that he knew that Wu Tian had directly increased by five million......

Andy Lau looked at Wu Tiandao: "Charlie, I have to remind you that the current film market is different from previous years. Director Chen and I are also friends, and he also talked to me about investment before, and he is a small investment movie......"

The meaning of his words is already obvious, he and Chen Guo are good friends, and neither has invested in each other's movies. Now Wu Tian took out five million to invest at once, which was too risky.

Chen Guo smiled bitterly, Andy Lau was telling the truth.

Although he was very excited that Wu Tian was willing to take out five million to invest at once, he didn't want to deceive people.

Now the market is indeed much worse than before, investors are very cautious about film investment, and no one dares to guarantee whether a film can recover its cost, let alone make money.

So even though Andy Lau's reminder may make Wu Tian dismiss the idea of investing, Chen Guo was only a little depressed in his heart, and he was not angry.

Wu Tian nodded at Andy Liu and said with a smile: "Andy, I roughly know the situation you said, and I have talked to Director Wu before." However, I have confidence in Director Chen, this money, I am willing to invest in Director Chen, even if this movie can't recover the investment, we can continue to cooperate in the future, I believe that one day I will make money!"

When Chen Guo heard this, a wordless gratitude surged in his heart, you must know that for this movie, he was looking for people everywhere before, and he ran into walls everywhere, which was extremely sad.

Now Wu Tian is willing to invest a lot of money, which is his trust and affirmation.

"Charlie, five million is indeed too much, otherwise, the initial investment of two million will be determined, and I will consider the actor candidates carefully......"

I smiled slightly: "It can't be missing, just five million." Director Chen, although the Xingang Film Market has fallen into a temporary predicament, we still have to be confident. It is precisely because of the bad environment that we need to make high-quality products, rather than choosing shoddy production, well, my sentence may be a bit heavy, but the reality is like this, there are too many bad movies now, which has a worse impact on the market environment.

Moreover, as I just said, I don't care about the gains and losses of a movie, everyone has a low point, that's normal, but as long as you like movies and love movies, there is hope.

I have confidence in Director Chen, doesn't Director Chen have confidence in himself?"

Chen Guo's expression changed on his face, and he slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." Charlie, your words have made me wake up from a dream, and I have indeed been too careful in recent years. Let's make it for five million, and I can re-select the actors and re-imagine and refine the script. Charlie, don't worry, I won't let your investment go down the drain. ”

Andy Lau looked at Wu Tian's calm expression, thinking that this guy really can't understand it, this kind of courage is rarely compared.

"Why don't I make a cameo as well?" said Andy Lau with a smile.

"Well, if you don't say that I'm looking for you too, don't think about it as a star, your image is too positive. Chen Guo's face was radiant at the moment, and he turned his head to look at Wang Fei and said, "How about it, you also come to make a cameo?"

"No problem, Director Chen, you can arrange it. Wang Fei said with big eyes.

Chen Guo was very happy, with these two big stars making cameos, the problem of publicity was solved, he said: "But it's okay, this is a low-cost production, and I can only give you a symbolic reward of 500 yuan......

Andy Lau said with a smile: "There is no need for remuneration, this is a movie invested by Charlie, how can I be embarrassed to ask for remuneration for such a small favor." ”

Wang Fei also pursed his lips and said, "Yes, don't mention the reward." ”

When Chen Guo heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Wu Tian again, thinking that this guy is not simple, Andy Liu and Wang Fei are so face-saving.

Subsequently, Wu Tian and Chen Guo agreed that he would transfer the investment money to Chen Guo first, and wait for the company's people to come and sign a cooperation agreement with him in two days.

And the money that Wu Tian transferred to Chen Guo was the royalties he had just received from Columbia Records.

Although the album has not yet come out, several singles have been hanging at the top of the charts, and the authorized use of these songs requires a fee.

In less than three months, a few singles brought Wu Tian a profit of 2.71 million US dollars.

When the album is released, the income brought is definitely a huge amount of money.

Wu Tian is also looking forward to it.

The next morning, Chen Guo came to the hotel where Wu Tian was staying early in the morning.

Subsequently, Wu Tian signed an investment agreement with him, which will be replaced by a company agreement after the establishment of the Xingang subsidiary of Tiange Culture.

After signing the agreement, Wu Tian went to the bank with Chen Guo and transferred 650,000 yuan to the account of Chen Guo's studio.

When Wu Tian opened an account in the country before, the Citibank he chose had branches in many places around the world, and even a branch in Shanghai in the mainland, which was very convenient for funds to withdraw and transfer.

When the funds arrived, Chen Guo was completely relieved, and at the same time, he was also very polite to Wu Tian, the gold owner.

With money, you can make the movie you really want.

Wu Tian's atmosphere made him decide that no matter whether he could make money this time or not, he would maintain cooperation with Wu Tian in the future.
