Originally, even in Hollywood, there were very few film companies that made movies that were wholly invested by a film company, but they must cite funds from all sides, and there are investment companies in Hollywood that specialize in investing in films. This situation is mainly used to diversify risks.

If all of a movie is invested by one film company, then if it loses, it will naturally be lost by one company to the end. Therefore, risk avoidance can be said to be the most important. Of course...... There are also some cases of distribution of interests and compromises.

Generally speaking, it is rare for a film company to invest 30% of its own! You must know that Spider-Man, a blockbuster that is a global grossing blockbuster and is recognized as a movie with a high potential for big profits, is not wholly owned by Columbia, but has several investors!

And this time, Yang Wei proposed that we make this big robbery into a movie by ourselves, and all the funds will be invested by our family to shoot it in one stop...... This situation, in Hollywood, is almost unthinkable!

For example, everyone knew that the sequel to Pirates of the Caribbean, which was a global hit the year before, would definitely make money. But the film company didn't invest all the money to shoot it...... And the same method of diversification is adopted.

It's not that studios don't have enough confidence in the film itself and are worried about losing money, so they need to spread the risk...... At that time, idiots all know that this movie will definitely make a lot of money after it comes out! It's the equivalent of a hen that can lay golden eggs!

At this time, all parties around will have their eyes fixed on this movie, and many people want to get a piece of the pie!! Investment companies to share. Large and small production companies have to share, as well as all kinds of people who have funds in their hands......

In this case, it is as if I single-handedly integrated the smuggling trade on the west coast of Canada, and everyone knows that this business must be a big profit and a special ......, but whether it is Yang Wei's uncle. And Sorin, all of them forcibly want to intervene in to "invest" - in fact, they are forced to get a share!

And the same is true when the investment in making movies is diversified! It's not that the film company itself is willing to selflessly share the opportunity to make money with others.

So, there is a strange phenomenon in Hollywood...... The more movies that are favored by many people, the more likely they are to make a lot of money, and the more investors there are!

And the real movie with the risk of losing money, the investor is often very simple - after all, everyone is not a fool, and few people are willing to do a risky business.

"But we're in a different situation." After Yang Wei explained to me about Hollywood's film investment, she walked to the wine cabinet in the living room, opened the cabinet, and took out a bottle of Remy Martin. Gently unscrewed the cap, poured herself a glass, and walked in front of me. Looking at my greedy expression, her coquettish face showed a somewhat childish smile, slowly blew on my ear, and said softly: "My dear, I'm sorry, the doctor's order, for the sake of your health, you can't touch tobacco and liquor in the near future." ”

Then she sat naturally on my lap. One hand hooked my neck and kissed me on the cheek.

In fact, since that day we experienced a life and death ghost gate together, my relationship with Yang Wei has almost completely changed!

Originally, before this, although I knew that Yang Wei had a heart for me. And I don't have thoughts about her...... But everyone hides their inner thoughts...... In other words, they know it, but they all pretend to be nothing on the surface. Even if the truth is occasionally revealed. It was immediately covered up.

Especially Yang Wei! This woman is the best at controlling her mood swings, occasionally showing a little dew. was immediately covered up by her, and then pretended to be nothing.

But that day, I hid in the ventilation duct of the ceiling, and heard with my own ears her last words before she died, and how deeply I loved me. In the end, I decided not to leave, and stayed with her to die...... The middle layer of window paper was immediately pierced!

The kiss of death after that can almost be said to have put the relationship between the two of us in stone!

From the time I was admitted to the hospital to the time I was discharged, Yang Wei watched over me almost all the time, even if she went out to run around, she would definitely return to the hospital to accompany me every day. Even stayed in my room......

Uh, don't think crooked. Just slept in another bed in my room.

Things have developed to this extent, and both of us have simply tacitly abandoned the previous disguise, and abandoned the previous state of deliberately holding the shelf. Pingrì, kissing and hugging, some actions between couples, are all common.

At this moment, Yang Wei was sitting in my arms, and I naturally put one hand around her slender waist.

I was admitted to the hospital for a month, forbidden for a month, but Yang Wei is such a charming woman is close to me, before I was not in good health, it is naturally impossible to "go further" with her in the relationship, at this moment I was discharged from the hospital and returned to my residence, holding her in my arms, involuntarily, I can't help but feel a little crazy.

This distraction was immediately transferred to my hand, and the palm of my hand was originally just around her waist, but now I couldn't help but slide up and down a little.

What a smart woman is Yang Wei? Seeing that my eyes were wrong, he guessed my mind, ate and smiled, first snuggled meekly into my arms, and warmed me for a while, and then when I was unable to control myself, I gently bit my ear and laughed in a low voice: "Okay, it's important to talk about business." ”

This thought in the man's heart really came up, it was more uncomfortable than anything else, stronger than anything else! At this time, if the excitement is blocked, you will be unspeakably depressed. I was a little uneasy at this time, and my palms couldn't help but tighten, and I whispered, "It's okay...... Anyway, the doctor didn't say no......"

Yang twisted her body slightly, her face was also a little cháo, but she pressed my hand with a gentle but firm movement, and said softly: "Okay, it's just not right now." ”

I raised my head and looked at Yang Wei's eyes, there was pleading in them, but the resolute gaze was also obvious.

I know that a woman like Yang Wei is extremely rational, and she said no, that is really not good.

Sighing, I let go of her, but Yang Wei felt a little guilty, hesitated slightly, and said, "Hmm...... The matter between the two of us is always inconclusive...... Chen Yang, you know my intentions. It's okay to die for you, and naturally I won't refuse to give my body to you. It's just that...... I'm always upset. And you and I have different identities......"

I immediately poured a basin of cold water over my head. The thought suddenly vanished.

Although Yang Wei's last sentence was light, it pierced my heart like a needle...... And it's a problem that I can't solve in my heart!

The identity is different!

It's really a different identity!

Who is Yang Wei? A young lady of the Clover family. Although she is not the heir of the family, she is also a powerful aristocratic girl! With the power of the Yang family, is it possible to let a girl under his door follow me so namelessly?

What's more, I still have a Jojo who hasn't solved it!

Yan Di is what I promised to marry! But Qiao Qiao and Yang Wei, the identities of these two girls, no matter which one they are, it is absolutely impossible for them to follow me as my lover without a name or share! Even if they are willing, the family behind them will never tolerate it!

And in this matter, I have to thank one more person...... It's that n's ace beauty reporter Phil.

When Yang Wei was tied to a gas bomb at the end of that day, it was a message of "before death", which was tantamount to an affectionate confession to me! There was a video of that passage at the time!!

And then, after Phil parachuted out, he didn't make the video public!!

Afterwards, Yang Wei told me that she found Phil in time and asked Phil to do that!

Because Yang Wei Bi Jing is Yang Wei, after her true feelings fell under the emotional turmoil, when she calmed down, she immediately reacted that the relationship between the two of us was very inappropriate! Once exposed, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of trouble!

First of all, Yan Di! This matter is too big, Yan Di must know. And if she saw Yang Wei's true confession with me on TV...... I'm afraid that it will make this girl sad immediately.

Secondly, it is Mr. Yang Er of the Yang family!! The reason why a big family is a big family is that it naturally has its own rules and system! Oriental families, especially !! If Mr. Yang Er knows about our relationship, I'm afraid he will probably come to the door directly to force marriage like Qiaoqiao's father! Even if the forced marriage fails, Yang Wei will be forcibly taken away!

Although I don't feel good in my heart, I also understand that Yang Wei's approach is correct.

Yang Wei knew that I was upset when she looked at my face, she comforted me a few words, and she was even more gentle, and then immediately led the topic away, and continued to talk about the topic about movies just now: "Although every popular movie is a money-making machine, many people have to forcibly intervene in their eyes, and even those giant-level film companies have to compromise in all aspects. But the situation is different for us. ”

I immediately forced myself to shift my attention and said, "Well, let's talk about it." ”

I know that during the period of my cultivation, Yang Wei has not rested for a day. She spent almost all of her jīng efforts other than accompanying me on the film company. That script was written by someone she hired at a high price. There is also hype in the media, fueling the flames. At the same time, I also carefully understand many rules of this industry......

Many times, she even held a bunch of materials in the ward while accompanying me and reading the materials.

"A popular big-budget movie, if it can sell well, almost all of the money will be made in the unit of 100 million! This kind of money-making business is naturally hot for everyone. Yang Wei thought for a while and said, "At the beginning, I also wondered why those film companies were willing to share this opportunity to make money with others. Although it is said that a big-budget movie costs hundreds of millions of dollars, it is astronomical in the eyes of ordinary people. But for those giant-level studios...... It's not that they don't have money! And the reason, in addition to diversifying investment risks, is more of a compromise.

"A money-making business, the more you make money, the more complicated this circle becomes! I don't know how many people will sharpen their heads and want to get in...... Not to mention anything else, it is an open secret that those underworld forces launder money through movies...... And this is just a few small Mingtang. Big giant-level film companies often have their own background and influence, and they will not be coerced by the underworld forces and agree to let their funds in. However, even those powerful film giants have some scruples! For example, ......" Yang Wei said while wrenching his fingers: "Banks, various funds, investors, production companies, and even many insurance consortia......, etc., etc. It's a capital market!

The circulation of capital, in the final analysis, is the pursuit of profits! Since there is the output of profits, it is difficult for a family to monopolize it in its own hands...... After all, this is no longer the time for 'trusts'! Those giant film companies, although they are not afraid of gangsters and other organizations that are not on the stage...... But if it's really a first-class gangster, like a mafia family. It will still make them compromise.

As for the huge interest groups like banks, they have to bow their heads even more! The circle is so big, and the relationship between each other is even more complicated, you have me, I have you. There is even a very strange phenomenon in the United States, which is incomprehensible to the Easterners...... It's that many film companies hold part of each other's shares! Such a relationship makes the relationship between them no longer simply a competitor in the industry.

It is a situation in which it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe. More often than not, they will join forces for the greater good! This has become a rule in the industry. No one can disobey, and no one dares to disobey!

It's like when we first came, I figured out how to drag the bank down and tie it up with us. If there are several investors in a movie. Although the benefits will be diluted, the benefits are also many! Because none of those investors are fuel-efficient lamps! For example, there are investment funds in banks among investors. Then in terms of finance, it is equivalent to one more powerful ally!

No film company can guarantee that it will not have a time to turn to the bank in the future!

The addition of other investors also comes in under the same circumstances.

Sometimes, there is even the intervention of the zhèngfǔ or the military! For example, can you say that there is no support from the United States behind a film like "Dúlìrì", which openly promotes Greater Americanism?

And sometimes, when a film company invests in a movie, there may even be other competitors' investments behind it! For example, the movies invested by Warner may have traces of companies such as Paramount...... These are quite normal. Hollywood has grown over a century, and every company here, especially the big ones. Almost all of you have me, I have you! ”

After Yang Wei finished saying this in one breath, he took a sip of wine, took a breath, and looked at me with a smile.

I pondered for a moment, then looked up and said, "Since you said it...... Give up some of the investment opportunities to others. Although it will dilute our profits, it will also help long-term development, then. Should we do the same? ”

"No!" Yang Wei shook his head firmly, denying my thoughts.

She sat up from my arms. At this time, her face was full of confidence, it was a gesture of everything she controlled, and it was the appearance of a strong woman who was directing and flying. Such an expression is naturally not suitable for continuing to lean on my arms as a bird.

"Number one, we're not going to be in Hollywood for long. Chen Yang, in simple words, we are speculating, not investing! If we plan to develop Billy Hill Film Company and concentrate our funds, strength, and resources in our hands to run the film business wholeheartedly, then I would suggest to you today that you give up a lot of your investment share in this film! Although you earn less, you can get all kinds of friendship! This is important...... But we don't have to. According to our plan, we are ready to do a few votes in Hollywood, and then we will flash people! We're not going to put down roots here. One word! We're here to make money! I'm not here to do business! Yang smiled slyly.

"As for the second...... You don't have to give up your interests now. Other studios are willing to concede their interests, largely because they are afraid that they will offend their allies and that they will cause trouble for their films. But you don't have that worry at all now! Don't forget, almost half of the celebrities in Hollywood now owe you a lot of favors!! This kind of favor, for you, is an immeasurable network of strength! At this time, whoever comes out to embarrass you, I'm afraid that without your hands, there will be a group of big people who are anxious to repay your favor to beat the people who embarrass you back to their hometown!! Of course, it's not that they really like you and really want to help you. I'm completely anxious to return your favor! Although this kind of favor, once it is paid off, they will not help you anymore. But at least for a while, almost no one in Hollywood, or in the entertainment industry in the United States, will dare to mess with you!! Got it? In other words, since we don't plan to do a film career for a long time, and now no one dares to mess with you...... Then, we don't need to give up the opportunity to make money! Swallow it yourself! ”

I nodded.

In these analyses, I still believe in Yang Wei very much. This woman's mind is indeed very powerful!

"There is one more thing that we need to understand." Yang smiled and said, "It's the movie in your hand now...... Normally. The safest movie is to shoot the sequels to those hit blockbusters! Because the big sale of the first episode proves that the way is successful, and the safest way is to replicate it! Therefore, the evaluation of sequel movies is the least risky. And our film ...... According to the analysis of the experts I found, I came up with a figure that made everyone blush, and the risk rate of our film was not even five percent!! ”

Yang Wei's eyes flashed, and her face even showed a hint of excitement: "Do you know what this means?" This means that, unless there is a natural disaster [**]. Or the United States suddenly has a large-scale war. Or is it the sudden collapse of the U.S. economy, the end of the world...... And so on and so forth. Unless these things happen that are powerless, beyond that...... Our movie is a sure profit!!! ”

Yang Wei's analysis of the anomaly is dense, from several aspects, putting all the ins and outs of the matter. All the possibilities, all the prospects are analyzed! Obviously, this woman's ability to do things is definitely not ordinarily strong! The people around me, even including the smart lawyer Zhou, I don't even think that anyone can compare with Yang Wei!

This woman is really the only person I have seen in my life with a high IQ......

What makes me strange is that at this moment, I looked at Yang Wei, and suddenly a strange thought popped up in my heart. This thought made me feel a little strange.

Well...... Perhaps, what I have always needed most around me is to have such a person, right?

Once the plan was drawn up, I had no doubts. Yang Wei immediately set about starting to work on it.

First of all, the initial momentum work, which went very smoothly for me. Because although Billy Hill Company is not well-known, it is the old wrench of this film company. I'm almost the hottest celebrity in the United States!

I'm about to invest in making this film after the sensation. It immediately formed a storm and spread rapidly!

And this time, it has created a miracle that can be said to be difficult to repeat in the history of American cinema...... It's about the casting of the movie!

Afterwards, in an annual report article within the film industry at the end of this year, there was such a sentence:

"Such a miracle can only happen once, and it will only happen once! No matter in the future, even if it is another three hundred years, it is unlikely that such a crazy thing will happen! ”

The beginning of this storm was a small investigation in a newspaper under the behest of Yang Wei. It is about inviting readers and audiences to meet the expectations of the actors in this film, the heroes and the actors of the male and female roles.

It can be said that this is all a kind of speculation. Because viewers and readers are sure to come up with a variety of candidates! almost all the handsome guys and beauties in Hollywood that they like in their hearts have been nominated. And the directors of this movie are even more varied. From Spielberg to the new director who is popular, he was nominated by fans without staying.

As you can imagine, this is all a media hype. Because no other movie has the potential to gather so many big-name movie stars! It's just an illusion that borders on the absurd.

Just the next day, things changed...... What followed was the exclamation of the whole world:

Hollywood, crazy!!
