In the scorching sun, Liu Lan walked out of the headquarters of Mi Meigao Film Company with a frown. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In his mind, it was still the same picture just now, an obese white man, who said in a mocking tone: "Pull 100 million investment? Who do you think you are? Cameron? And with this investment of 100 million US dollars, you can only get 50% of the box office dividends, so let's daydream! ”

Then, Liu Lan was kicked out.

"Damn fatty, I'll let you know, you'll regret it!" Liu Lan said viciously.

Generally speaking, Liu Lan doesn't like to speak harshly afterwards, unless, he is angry to the limit.

"Hatch!" At the same time, inside an office in a high-rise building.

"Strange, did someone scold me? Could it be the yellow-skinned monkey? $100 million and a half red, stupid x! Then the white pig began to drink coffee as if nothing had happened.

Today's events are just a small episode for him, a small episode that he will not take to heart.

"Liu Lan, how is it, have you attracted investment?" Lin Weihao saw Liu Lan return and asked.

Liu Lan shook his head and said, "No! ”

"Hey, let's move on to the next one!" Lin Weihao sighed and spoke.

In fact, when he knew about Liu Lan's total investment in the movie, he was also frightened and speechless!

Originally, he thought that Liu Lan's movie would be enough for 100 million Chinese yuan at most, but who knows, 100 million Chinese yuan is only one-sixth!

In fact, if it is in China, the investment of 100 million Chinese yuan will definitely be hyped into the front page headlines, after all, in this era when the box office is difficult to break 100 million, investing 100 million Chinese yuan is not just as simple as courage.

However, in the United States, 100 million Chinese dollars is really not enough.

The United States has long entered the era of blockbusters, what is the era of blockbusters?

Without an investment of 100 million dollars, do you dare to say that you are a blockbuster?

Therefore, there is a reason why American movies are proud of the world, because people are willing to invest and dare to invest!

As the saying goes, the bigger the investment, the greater the return.

There are very few small-budget films that have won the big box office.

A penny, a penny, it's not just talk.

Universal Pictures.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Liu Lan, we dare not be interested in your investment!"

Luen Mei Films.

"Mr. Liu Lan, if you can give us eighty percent of the budget with an investment of 100 million, we can consider it, this is already our greatest sincerity!"

Fox.

"I'm sorry, we think your new movie is too risky and not a good investment!"

Paramount Pictures.

……

Liu Lan has run all of the eight major film companies in the United States, but no one is willing to invest, and the best conditions are actually United States Film Company, which requires eighty percent of the box office dividends for 100 million US dollars......

To put it simply, Liu Lan's investment journey is over.

"Damn, these people look down on people too much!" Liu Lan complained.

In fact, if Cameron solicits sponsorship from these companies, not to mention 100 million US dollars, even if it is 200 million US dollars, they will give it.

It's a pity that Liu Lan is not Cameron, and now his status is more than 108,000 miles worse than Cameron.

"I have no choice but to take a loan from the bank!" In the end, Liu Lan chose to go to the bank for a loan, and now, only this can work.

Wells Fargo.

"Mr. Liu, we don't think you can afford to repay such a large investment, so I'm sorry."

Citibank.

"Mr. Liu Lan, although we are very optimistic about your potential, but this investment is too risky, we can't give it to you, I'm sorry!"

Bank of America.

"Mr. Liu, your entire assets are less than $100 million, and we think that you are not in line with our venture capital, so I'm sorry!"

Goldman Sachs Bank.

……

Failures, a string of failures.

Liu's investment journey ended in complete failure.

No film company, no bank, is willing to lend money to Liu Lan.

Moreover, what annoyed Liu Lan was that his investment journey was exposed by the American media.

[The investment journey of the Chinese kid ended in a complete failure] ----- "The Voice of America"!

[Hitting a wall one after another, where is the investment of Huaxia Kid? ] ------ Los Angeles Times!

With the hype of these newspapers, the situation that Liu Lan had just gained momentum was completely gone.

In short, the current situation is not optimistic for Liu Lan.

"These damn media!" Lin Weihao complained, "They are completely reversing black and white!" ”

On the side, Liu Lan seemed a little calm.

"Okay, Brother Hao, these people are just some hype clowns, how can there be sales, how to come!"

In fact, Liu Lan has only now discovered that if it is cheeky, American newspapers are much thicker than their Chinese counterparts.

Today, I can praise you desperately, and tomorrow, I will be able to step on your corpse and get on the throne, it's so shameless, there is no shame at all.

Compared with them, some media in Huaxia will at least retain some face.

"Jingle bell, jingle bell!" The phone rings.

Liu Lan picked up the mobile phone and looked at the caller ID, and suddenly felt a little flustered, because the person who called him was Audrey.

For Audrey, Liu Ling was a little afraid to see her at this time, the reason is very simple, in order to join his movie, people rejected Cameron's movie, and now, he can't even attract investment in the movie, it's too faceless.

However, Liu Lan still connected the phone.

"Hey, this is Liu Lan!" Liu said.

Then, a somewhat playful voice came into Liu Lan's ears.

"Hehe, Liu Dacaizi, your life has been a little hard recently!" Audrey teased.

"Uh, ahem, there are some." Liu Lan coughed and replied.

"Have you got your investment?" Audrey asked.

"Not yet!" Liu Lan replied honestly.

"Do you want me to invest a little bit then?" Audrey asked.

Then, Liu Luan's heart moved, you must know that Audrey's investment of 30 million was still taken out.

"Yes, if you want!" Liu Li said immediately.

What, face? Please, is it time to discuss the issue of face?

You know, in three days, Marcus's new film will be launched, and now, he hasn't even pulled the investment, it's too embarrassing!

"Haha!" On the other end of the phone, there was a silver bell-like laughter, and then, Audrey said, "Okay, I'll invest 50 million, 40 million in cash, and 10 million in my salary, how about it, is there a problem?" Audrey asked.

"No problem, no problem at all!" At this time, the problem is stupid x!

"Then Director Liu, how much box office dividends do you give me?" Audrey asked.

"Twenty-seven percent! You must know that I will invest 100 million yuan to give them 50% of the box office share, so 27% is definitely for the sake of you being my friend! Moreover, my total budget is 150 million US dollars, and your box office share is divided on that basis. ”

"That being the case, then it's decided!" Audrey said.

Then, she hung up.

Listening to the beep on the phone, Liu Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief, his first investment was finally done!

However, it turned out to be the investment of the heroine of the movie, if this matter is exposed, it will probably be funny!

Liu can predict that he will soon be awarded the title of "Friend of Women".

"Jingle bell, jingle bell!" The phone rang again.

Liu Lan saw the caller ID and was stunned, because it was Faye Wong who called him, you know, it's five o'clock in the morning in Huaxia now!

Liu Lan answered the phone.

"Hey, Xiaoxue!"

"Brother Lu, are you in trouble?" Faye Wong's sweet voice came.

"Trouble? Where? Liu Lan didn't want to lose face in front of his girlfriend.

"What is written in the newspaper?" Faye Wong asked.

Liu Lan: "......"

"Okay, I know, you can't get investment now, can you?" Faye Wong asked.

"Who said that, I just pulled 50 million investments." Liu Lan retorted.

"Oh, is it? It's amazing! ”

"Of course."

"How big of a gap are you missing?" Faye Wong asked.

Then, Liu Lan was silent, he thought for a while, he could come up with a maximum investment of 30 million US dollars, plus Audrey's 50 million US dollars, that is, 80 million US dollars, and there was still a gap of 70 million from the gap of 150 million!

"Seven million dollars!" Liu Ling thought about it, and finally told the truth.

"So, I'll give you 50 million dollars!" Faye Wong's next sentence shocked Liu Lan's heart.

"No, I can't ask for this money!" The macho Liu Lan doesn't do it.

"Okay, the 50 million is an investment, you have to give me box office dividends, and it's not for you!" Faye Wong knew Liu Lan's personality and immediately said.

"Well, then!" In the end, Liu Lan still responded, "I'll give you 28% of the box office dividends!" ”

"That's it!" Faye Wong Snow Road.

"Well, that's it!" Liu Lan said seriously.

Then, the two talked for a while before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

But not long after Liu Lan's phone hung up, the mobile phone rang again.

This time, it was Li Weiheng who called him.

Li Weiheng's origin is obvious.

"Teacher Xiao Liu, I want to invest in your movie, let's say, how big a gap do you have?"

Hearing this, Liu Luan's heart suddenly warmed, "There are still 20 million left!" ”

"Dollars?"

"Yes, dollars!"

"So, I'll invest five million dollars!" Li Weiheng said.

"Okay, I'll give you a 2.75% box office dividend!" Liu Xuan immediately said.

"Haha, that's it!" Then, Li Weiheng hung up the phone with a smile.

"Jingle bell, jingle bell!"

This time, it turned out to be Director Yi Anda who called Liu Lan.

"Liu Lan, I won't say much about gossip, I'm here to invest in your movie, let's talk about it, there's still a big gap, I'll make up for it!" Ian's tone is very domineering, of course, he also has this strength!

Liu Lan was also not polite, and said: "Fifteen million dollars!" ”

"Okay, I'll give it to you!"

Then, Liu Luan was deeply moved in his heart.

At this moment, he realized what it means for one side to be in trouble, and to support from all sides! (To be continued.) )
