Chapter 154: China's No. 1 Investment! (Redeem 280 commuter passes)

Looking at the script, the screenwriters kept marveling.

"Urban Chase ......"

"**Beauty......**Music ......"

"Drag safe??!! This plot ......"

By the time they reached the last page of the script, they were numb with shock.

This script is so wonderful!!

Several screenwriters glanced at each other a little, and they all blushed a little, and the book that they had just picked up that said "Speed Speed" was quietly put down, they were originally afraid that the script written by Wang Shang would not be good, and they wanted to recommend this script carefully prepared by several people.

As a result, as soon as I saw the script of "Fast and Thrilling", "Fast and Fast" ......

Forget it, don't be ashamed.

Wang Shang noticed that their expressions seemed to be a little wrong, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

In the end, Lu Yang, the leader of the screenwriting team, was still a little reluctant to waste the hard work of a few people, so he took out the script.

"Okay, I'll take this script back and take a look, you can help me improve this script, mainly around the centers of '** beauty', 'car madness', and 'tough guy blood', and by the way, help me consider the filming ......location."

After Wang Shang explained, he left with "Speed". Wang Shang felt that they should not be discouraged, but should be encouraged, if the script is not bad, there is absolutely no problem with investment.

And Wang Shang walked with him, as well as a script of "Jaws".

……

On December 10, Tianwang Studio announced the press conference plan. Wang Shang's fourth film plan was announced.

After the news spread, there was no need to take the initiative to publicize it, and it had already caused an uproar in the entertainment industry. On the day of the press conference, Tianwang Studio was not invited, and more than 100 entertainment media sent reporters to the magic capital to participate in the press conference of this film.

I'm afraid that in addition to those big-name directors, only Wang Shang can enjoy this kind of benefit.

"May I ask Director Wang, is the new movie a racing movie as the outside world says?" This reporter is probably a newcomer, and the question asked is too simple.

"Yes."

Another reporter seized the gap and interjected and asked, "May I ask Director Wang." What's the name of your new movie? How much do you plan to invest? Do you need to go to the United States with the "Death is Coming" series to do post-production special effects? ”

Wang Shang replied directly: "This new movie of mine is called "Fast and Furious". It's the story of racing. According to the current script estimates, the investment budget for this film is about 350 million yuan, and it may be more, depending on the specific situation at that time. In addition, post-production special effects. I don't need to answer that. "350 million yuan. This was Wang Shang's initial prediction. It is estimated that it may reach 400 million yuan in the end.

In the previous space, the investment of "Fast and Furious 5" required an investment of $125 million, but this was also determined by the price of goods in 2011-2012, the salary of actors, and the overall level of the United States. If it were China, it would be much less in all respects.

The reporters didn't know what Wang Shang was thinking, and when they heard about the investment budget, they were in an uproar.

"350 million RMB!? That's right, right? ”

"Hasn't this become the largest investment film in China?"

"The film "Wuji", which director Zhang Kaige is making now and is known as the largest investment in China, seems to be only 300 million, right?"

Everyone was like sharks, and they could already smell the blood.

Big news!!

Then the already clever reporter thought of the problem of the collision between the two movies, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know when this movie will be released?" ”

Wang Shang replied directly: "According to estimates, it should be released on the National Day schedule or the Chinese New Year schedule next year (2005), and the specific situation depends on the progress of filming, and I will also use the strongest crew." ”

After Wang Shang said this, those reporters were even more frozen, and they really bumped into !!

Then he asked again: "I heard that the movie "Wuji" directed by director Zhang Kaige is currently being filmed with 300 million, and its release date is also set for the 2005 Chinese New Year, I don't know if you have the confidence to beat it?" ”

"Wuji?" Wang Shang couldn't help but think of the big investment bad movie of the same name in the previous time and space, and couldn't help laughing, but he still said modestly to reporters: "I think Director Zhang Da is a very good director, maybe "Wuji" will be a good movie." ”

After the press conference, Wang Shang's new film plan was like a bombshell thrown into the entertainment industry, shaking the entertainment industry for a while!!

"A new record for Huaxia's investment budget: 350 million!!"

"Bold boss is powerful again, teach you how to invest!!"

"To smash a movie with 350 million, it will take at least more than 1.7 billion yuan at the global box office to recover the cost!!"

"With the funds of the entire Tianwang Studio to support this film plan, it is estimated that Wang Shang will be able to do it!"

Many media in the entire film industry and entertainment industry have used 'magical director' and 'bold boss' to describe Wang Shang.

And for fans, this is definitely great news, and there are good movies to watch. They rejoiced and sang praises to Wang Shang: "Great king! Take our knees away, shall we?! ”

As for those production companies, when they heard Wang Shang's plan, they instantly blushed. Look at other people's 350 million, and then look at your own 35 million, the difference is ten times, it's really embarrassing......

Silent in his heart: "The 35 million is not ...... Add a little ......? ”

……

Just when the outside was shocked by Wang Shang's investment plan, Wang Shang was in the dilemma of investing funds at this time.

At present, "To Youth" and "Death is Coming 2" have consumed nearly 150 million funds, and the cost of manpower and materials for each group of the studio has also reached 20 million, not counting the special effects team with a big black hole of funds, and the special effects team has to consume millions of yuan every week, in order to train Wang Shang's "Alien" plan and special effects talents.

If it weren't for the return of box office funds from the movie "Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance", which has a small investment and big income, as well as the income from online videos and DVDs, as well as Ubisoft Games and Paramount's part of the investment in "Death is Coming 2", it is estimated that the entire studio would have been paralyzed.

After continuous consumption in various places, Tianwang Studio still has 250 million yuan of working capital.

"250 million yuan, minus the promotion of the two new films, and the reserve funds left, I can only use about 150 million, and there is still a gap of 200 million, so I still have to recruit investors."

The next day, after the announcement of the investment for the "Fast and Furious" movie was announced, the response from the whole country was extremely flat, and there were few responders.

Because Wang Shang's investment plan is too scary, it takes a box office of more than 1.7 billion to be able to recover the cost, and there is only one such awesome box office movie in the country so far - "Death is Coming 1".

"If the box office doesn't have so much, wouldn't it be a dead person?"

Therefore, many investors are discouraged, although they are a little greedy for this cake, but they feel that this cake may be poisonous and dare not try it.

After Wang Shang understood the situation, he directly despised it with the phrase 'small peasant consciousness'.

In the end, Tang Zongshi, chairman of Datang International, who was still Wang Shang's acquaintance, felt that there was a trick, and with his trust in Wang Shang, he ruthlessly invested 100 million yuan and got a 20% profit share. This share is relative to the budget amount of 350 million, and if the actual funds are increased, the share ratio will decrease.

There are no investors, but there are a lot of advertisers with a keen sense of business opportunities.

Step on the gas pedal and want to shoot, right? Shoe Advertising ...... Grab the steering wheel and shoot it, right? Watch Close-Up Advertising ...... A must for handsome guys and beautiful women, right? Costume & Jewelry Advertising ...... You always use a sports car in your races, right? It's an absolute car advertisement......

All kinds of luxury goods, such as jewelry, such as watches, but also various brand clothes, shoes, clothing accessories, belts......

Shopping malls, hotels......

The most enthusiastic are the car companies, GM, Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz...... As well as several well-known brand car manufacturers in China, they all have the ability to produce sports cars......

This is a movie where any commodity can be related, so a whole bunch of all-round merchandise merchants ran over.

Loss? They don't care how much Wang Shang will lose or make in this movie. They only care about how big the gimmick of the movie is, how many people pay attention to it, and what business opportunities it can bring to their products...... Of course, it would be even better to be able to enter the international market as hotly as "The Grim Reaper".

And they feel that Wang Shang's film plan should be successful, firstly because Wang Shang has been creating miracles and has never lost, and secondly, because Tianwang Studio is now using most of the funds to make this movie, if it is not grasped, it will definitely be impossible to do so.

With these considerations, these advertisers began to come to the door one after another, and there was no need for Tianwang Studio to shout and pull people everywhere. This is the effect of fame, and it is also the invisible wealth that Wang Shang has obtained after his achievements in the past few years.

……

In the reception room of Tianwang Studio, Li Hong looked at several competitors in front of him with a constipated face, and these competitors also looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Li Hong is the vice president of General Motors' Huaxia regional company, and he personally went to Tianwang Studio today to get the ad insertion agreement.

When he saw the "Transformers" Autobots, he began to set his eyes on Tianwang Studios, but he didn't see the filming plan of "Transformers" for a long time.

When he saw the shooting plan of this "Fast and Furious" racing movie with an investment of 350 million, his keen intuition told him that this movie should be a big hit, so he quickly asked the following research company to make a market report, and the result of the report analysis was - it can be started!!.
