"Brother, what are you going to do now?"

was recording, and the assistant signaled on the other side of the glass wall that he had a phone to look for, and Xicheng put down his work and came out, only to find that it was Lin Jianyue Lin Dashao.

"Brother Lin, don't come unharmed, my little brother has a hard life, and he's recording an album," Xicheng laughed, this fifty-year-old man is older than his father, and he actually calls himself brother, which sounds really awkward.

However, he also knows that this is the brotherly culture of Hong Kong people, and it is the expression of his own family, which cannot be taken seriously and cannot be refused.

"Oh, then I can't help you," Lin Jianyue said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to continue recording." ”

"Where do you start?" Hee Sung said he was very confused, the call was too inexplicable, and he didn't seem to want to joke.

"Lao Zhao and I came to South Korea to see you, why don't you come out to welcome you?" Lin Jianyue smiled, "I don't expect you to entertain you, you won't be stingy with a light meal." ”

"Huh?" Hee Sung was very surprised, "Where are the two of you now, and when will they arrive, I will send someone to pick them up." ”

It's too unexpected, what are these two people doing in South Korea together, shouldn't they have come all the way to find themselves?

"It's already in Seoul," Lin Jianyue explained, "You don't have to worry about the hotel or anything, that's what we do, let's have a meal at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, it's almost lunch time." ”

Hee Cheng naturally had no choice, said hello to the people in the recording studio, and set off for the appointment.

Anyway, he's barely a host here.

Xicheng came to the hotel, and came to the dining room under the reception of the waiter, and sure enough, he saw Lin Jianyue and Zhao Tongwen.

One is the helmsman of one of the four major Chinese-funded consortia in Hong Kong, and the other is the heir of one of the major shareholders of China Film, both of which are not simple characters.

"It's really fast, we're talking about you," Lin Jianyue stood up. He hugged Hee Sung.

Zhao Tongwen stood up slowly, shook hands with Xicheng and sat back.

"What are you talking about me, it's not worth mentioning," Xicheng sat down and asked curiously, "The two big bosses don't want to get rich, what are they doing in my poor country?" ”

"You stinky boy," Lin Jianyue scolded with a smile: "It's really different from ordinary Koreans, they can't wait to say that they are the birthplace of world civilization." ”

"Snort," Hee Cheng pulled the corners of his mouth mockingly, and said disdainfully: "It's just an inferiority complex." ”

"What's the point of discussing this," Zhao Tongwen Zhengse said, "This time we first want to celebrate the successful reorganization of our Gold Medal Entertainment ......"

"Oh. Are the negotiations over? Xi Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, this accident was indeed a bit unexpected, after the acquisition of the gold medal, he immediately entered a new acquisition war, which was only a little more than a month.

"Of course, it's just a little bit more money," Zhao Tongwen nodded, and said in a still slow tone, "We spent 130 million Hong Kong dollars to wholly acquire Keyi Baidai and Busheng Dafeng." Mr. Lim is responsible for the funds. ”

Busheng Gale Music Culture Communication Co., Ltd. is a major record company in Chinese mainland and a subsidiary of EMI, one of the world's four largest record companies, in Chinese mainland. It was founded in 2002 by Zheng Donghan.

Science and art for hundreds of generations. The full name is "Science and Art EMI Co., Ltd.", which is a major record company in Taiwan and a subsidiary of EMI, one of the world's four largest record companies. There are three brands under the umbrella of Capitol Records, Viking Music and Yidai Entertainment.

In this way, Gold Entertainment covers Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Become the largest Chinese music company.

After the integration, Gold Entertainment will focus on the development of music, film, artist management, concert production, "Huayan International Music" Chinese record agency distribution and EMI international music record distribution business.

"130 million, this price is okay," Hee Cheng said indifferently: "Anyway, I'm very poor now." Brother Lin will help me pay for it first. ”

"Haha, are you poor?" Lin Jianyue laughed, "This is not kind, but I'm not afraid that you will repay the debt, how much did "Juno" earn, did it cost 200 million US dollars?" ”

"How can there be so many," Xi Chengwei shouted, "The total global box office is less than 300 million, and if you count the distribution to theaters and taxes, I don't even have 130 million in my hands." ”

"So many theaters?" Lin Jianyue is not a layman, Xicheng's income is far lower than his expectations, either Xicheng's kid is not honest and lying, or the theater is too ruthless.

"There's no way, the investment is small, and it's a little-known creative lineup," Xicheng was also very helpless, in order to make the theater line exert his strength, he paid 30 or 40 million US dollars to the theater chain.

But 1300 million dollars is already very satisfying to him.

"Speaking of little investment, that's really more popular than people," Lin Jianyue vomited bitterness, "I filmed "Casting Names" for 300 million yuan, and in the end I can only be regarded as capital preservation, and you made more than one billion yuan for 8 million US dollars to shoot "Juno". ”

"More than that," Zhao Tongwen reminded him: ""The Man from Earth, which was filmed for tens of thousands of dollars, earned 60 million US dollars at the box office, right?" ”

"Don't mention it, that movie has a lot of publicity money," Hee Sung shook his head, "The publicity fee alone will be smashed into tens of millions, and it would be good to have a box office of 20 million US dollars." ”

"Juno" earned 130 million, "That Man from Earth" earned 20 million, "Once" earned millions of dollars, and Hee Sung made 150 million US dollars in the movie, which is more than enough to buy two SMs at the current market price.

"I said Xicheng, don't patronize yourself to make money, you can't forget about our two old buddies," Lin Jianyue said with a cheeky smile: "We came here specifically to learn from the experience." ”

"I'm really embarrassed about this," Hee Sung touched his nose and said a little embarrassed: "Our film investment plan for this year has already begun to be implemented, and you guys are a little late." ”

"It's only been a few months, and your efficiency is too high, what kind of movies are you investing in?" Lin Jianyue exclaimed, and Zhao Tongwen was also a little disappointed.

The two of them worked hard, investing in several movies a year, and few of them made money, even if they made some money, they were embarrassed to say that they made money when they compared it with Xicheng's "Juno".

"Slumdog Millionaire," Hee Sung explained, "has received the script and is now talking to the director about the plan. ”

"How much money did you invest this time?" Zhao Tongwen was very curious about this, he found that the three overseas films that Xicheng invested in last year all belonged to the kind of low-cost works, "Juno" was eight million US dollars, which was low enough, and "That Man from Earth" and "Once" only cost more than 100,000 US dollars.

"It's a bit much this time," Hee Sung didn't hide it, and replied, "Fifteen million dollars." ”

"Fifteen million dollars, that's a lot?" Lin Jianyue screamed, "Then my 300 million yuan is not a super large system." ”

"This one is estimated to have a lot of box office," Zhao Tongwen was not as jumpy as Lin Jianyue, and said very stereologically: "Judging from your previous shots, you haven't tasted defeat." ”

"That's just luck," Hee Cheng said with a wry smile: "As long as it's an investment, there must be risks, and how can it be 100% profitable." ”

What he said was actually against his will, this "Slumdog Millionaire" invested 15 million US dollars and won 160 million US dollars at the box office, which is the number in the memory of otaku, no matter how butterfly effect, as long as there is no big mistake, how can there be 150 million US dollars.

Excluding costs, publicity, theaters, etc., there is at least about $80 million in box office revenue.

This is nothing, although 80 million is gratifying, but as long as you think of another point, Hee Sung will make this movie even if he owes it.

The film, which was released on August 30, received 105 nominations and won 79 awards throughout the awards season, making it the "millionaire" of the awards season.

Hades is now in need of a reputation, he can't afford to make big productions that cost hundreds of millions of dollars, so he can only make this kind of award-winning movie.

"Why don't we pay five million dollars as a family?" Lin Jianyue smiled, "Let's do business together now, we must cooperate first." ”

He is an old fox and does not believe that Hee Sung has not made any money at all.

"I've piled up all the funds," Hee Cheng refused, and felt that simply refusing it really hurt his feelings, so after thinking about it, he said: "It's better to be like this, I just have a movie hesitating, so it's better to invest and distribute it in the name of our gold medal." ”

"Oh, there's such a thing?" Zhao Tongwen's eyes lit up and he was very interested.

"It's a Taiwanese Wei Desheng movie," Hee Sung shrugged, "If you just want to make a good start here, I think you can make a little money." ”

"Wei Desheng, no," Lin Jianyue was shocked and looked at Xi Cheng in horror, "Do you want to give him the "Saidek. Balai" investment? ”

"That makes money?" are all in a circle, and after Lin Jianyue's reminder, Zhao Tongwen also remembered it.

This script has been written early on, in 2000 won the Taiwan Excellent Film Script Award, in order to attract investment, in 2003, Wei Desheng paid 2 million Taiwan dollars to shoot a 5-minute clip, solemnly invited Taiwanese media, business owners and other aspects to watch, proving the appreciability and marketability of "Saidek Balai", he expected to invest 7 million US dollars (about 200 million Taiwan dollars at the time), and claimed that half of the money dared to start filming, but unfortunately in addition to receiving courtesy praise, He was not able to get any investment.

Lin Jianyue and Zhao Tongwen both knew about this, and Wei Desheng even went to Hong Kong to ask Lin Jianyue to pull investment.

This movie is indeed a good movie, but it is not made to make money, but to cleanse people's souls, how can Lin Jianyue, who is a businessman, be interested in this. (To be continued......)
