Chapter 091: There is a movie called Wolf Warrior
"Of course it's true!" Liu Shuo said that he prefers martial arts stars like Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and Wu Jing who dare to fight, and he is also a lover of kung fu movies, and he doesn't watch their movies less when he is idle, and now a martial arts star comes to him for investment, and he doesn't even have the idea of refusing.
He doesn't know how to spend his money anymore, and he can invest in a movie to play! Even if you lose it, you should have fun. So he didn't ask Wu Jing what the film he wanted to invest in was called, nor did he ask him who the director was and what the script was.
"Your promise is so refreshing, I can't accept it!" Wu Jing said jokingly.
"It's okay! Just get used to it! Liu Shuo responded: "In this way, when do you have time to come to my house, we will talk in detail at that time." ”
"I have time now!" Wu Jing is also very anxious! "In this case, you send me the address, and I will rush over at once."
Liu Shuo said hello, and then the two hung up the phone and sent the address.
After more than an hour, Wu Jing arrived, and when he entered the door, he brought fruit. Liu Shuo didn't say anything, if Wu Jing took something valuable, he might not be happy, because he was not short of money. But with some fruit, Liu Shuo accepted it.
Wu Jing arrived at Liu Shuo's house and found out that other people's children were almost full moon, and he hurriedly said: "I don't even know that your child was born, you must notify me when you drink full moon wine." ”
"Okay!" Liu Shuo also explained, "I'm not a star either, and everyone who doesn't want to have a child knows it." ”
"You're much more famous than a celebrity now!" Wu Jing said: "If it weren't for the interview you gave a few days ago, I would not dare to ask you to invest. ”
"What's wrong?" Liu Shuo asked curiously.
"Because everyone is optimistic about this script, as soon as they see that it is a military-themed movie, they immediately shake their heads and quit." Wu Jing said with some anger.
"Army-based?" Liu Shuo was taken aback, it can't be "Wolf Warrior", right? I still think Wu Jing has made the "Wolf Warrior" series of military-themed movies, right?
"yes!" Wu Jing took out a dozen scripts from his bag, why a dozen? Because these are three scripts, "This movie is called Wolf Warrior, and I plan to make a series, and I have completed a total of three scripts and are ready to make a trilogy." ”
It's really a wolf warrior, but it's not right! Wasn't Wolf Warrior released in '15? Why is it coming out now? No matter, if it's a wolf warrior, the box office shouldn't be wrong, right? Liu Shuo picked up the Wolf Warrior script and pretended to read it, "This is still weird and interesting?" ”
Wu Jing couldn't help laughing when he saw that Liu Shuo was interested, "I also think it's interesting, so I created three scripts in a row." The cost of the first part is about 100 million, and if I can't get the investment, I have to shoot it even if I buy a house. ”
"The investment is not small!" Liu Shuo nodded and said: "There is really no movie with such a theme on the market now, if it is successful, maybe it can really set a benchmark for domestic films." ”
"Benchmarking or something, I just want to make a movie I want to make." Wu Jing said humbly.
"You're too modest, I'm setting a benchmark for domestic animation!" Liu Shuo said jokingly.
"I don't dare say that!" Wu Jing was not fooled, "I am just a humble person. ”
Liu Shuo put down the script, then took out his mobile phone and called the main force, asked how much money he still had to use, and after hanging up the phone, he said: "I only have 50 million to use here for the time being, you shoot first, and when the money is not enough, I am investing in it." I just have a request, make the best movie possible, and then I have to watch the sample film first, and then I can release it after passing the test. ”
Wu Jing was not dissatisfied with Liu Shuo's conditions. To be honest, many layman investors have such requirements, but they really don't understand movies, and it is best to be persuaded by the director, so that there are countless victories who have been cheated and bankrupt, and the most famous is that Wang Sunglasses put the investor in the hospital and almost died.
However, Wu Jing did not let Liu Shuo take the money, but said: "The movie will not start filming for the time being, I need to go to the army to experience life, and then there are some preparations, and it is estimated that it will not be filmed in the past two years." ”
"Then you are still in such a hurry to pull investment?" Liu Shuo was stunned, he thought he was going to shoot now!
"Once I have the investment, I can devote all my body and mind to military training!" "But I have a problem right now, and that is that there is no one to communicate with the military," Wu said. ”
"I can't help you with this, but you can try to go to the radio and television and ask them to help arrange it. I think they must have such a relationship, even if they don't have a relationship, they can have channels. As long as you express the meaning in the past, there may be hope. ”
"That's all it can be." Wu Jing said helplessly: "When I come back from the army, I will immediately set up a project for "Wolf Warrior". ”
"Okay, let's sign an agreement of intent now, don't worry about it!" Liu Shuo said that he was not worried, because in the original time and space, it is said that Wu Jing invested almost all his net worth in order to shoot "Wolf Warrior", which shows that it is very difficult for this movie to attract investment, so he is not afraid that Wu Jing will regret it.
After Liu Shuo and Wu Jing signed their intentions, they sent Wu Jing out.
When he came back, he wanted to paint again, but he couldn't calm down. The current domestic film market is basically occupied by Hollywood, but what is much better than the previous animation market is that the box office of domestic comedy movies is still good, and the box office of big productions can also be, but it is difficult to recover costs in China.
But after a few years, the domestic market can already be described as crazy, the box office is increasing every year, and the magnitude is still very large, which is also Liu Shuo's plan to agree with Cheng Hui to establish a theater, with a box office, the profitability of the theater will be very good.
The "Wolf Warrior" series is a rare masterpiece among domestic films, although he didn't know that "Wolf Warrior 2" directly topped the domestic box office, and even reached an unprecedented high box office, relying on the domestic market to enter the top 100 of the world film box office list, and it is more than 60.
But Liu Shuo's patriotic feelings in "Wolf Warrior", there really don't seem to be a few domestic movies that can promote patriotism and high box office, although the mission movies with the main theme of big cast stars also promote patriotism, but in fact, these movies lose money, because those stars don't get paid, if they get paid, the cost will rise sharply, and even break through the sky!
So "Wolf Warrior" will become a clear stream in the film industry.
