The production cost of $150 million surprised Wang Hao, no wonder Warner Bros. and these people in front of him have invested, and there is still a funding gap, this number is a little too big.

Nothing big stars, Hugh. Jackman's box office appeal is average, and he is not the top one. And although there are many fans of the original book "Peter Pan" around the world, not everyone will go to the cinema to watch it.

"According to the agreement of the investment platter, Warner Bros. is responsible for $75 million of the $150 million production cost, and our side is responsible for the other 75 million. The current situation is that the liquidity is not enough for the time being, and the film "Peter Pan" has been filmed and is in post-production, and if we can't come up with that much money, the production will be suspended. ”

James. Parker continued: "Production takes money, publicity needs money, and we are very optimistic about the future of this film, if you are willing to invest, you can try this movie." Merrill Lynch has already made loans, and among the top 10 most anticipated movies of 2015, this movie is behind "Jurassic World", "Star Wars 7" and "Avengers 2", ahead of "Fast and Furious 7" and "Mission Impossible 5". ”

Dizzy after listening to so much, Wang Hao summed it up in his heart, it is nothing more than that this "Peter Pan" is very powerful, very awesome, and the box office prospects are very optimistic, and it will definitely be a box office bomb.

"I need to think about it, this movie is already done, right? At this time, I am still unsure of what proportion I can invest. ”

Wang Hao is nothing. At least he thinks that this movie will hit the streets in the Chinese market, and his generation has never heard of "Peter Pan", who will watch it if it is not a standard American sci-fi blockbuster.

China's film market is now second only to North America in the world. No movie will abandon this market, and the movie Peter Pan is not very attractive.

"Of course, but we've already started this project, and maybe the rest of us will join in while you're thinking, and you'll be a few steps too late to say sorry."

"It's okay, miss this opportunity, there are still many times to cooperate in the future." Wang Hao behaved very generously. He wished that someone else would be a pick-up man.

Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Wang Hao felt that his face was about to stiffen, and he made an excuse and said, "You guys talk slowly." I'll go over there and have a look. ”

After speaking, Wang Hao raised his glass to the group of people, and then turned around and walked away.

Not long after he left, James. Parker had a grim look on his face. With a "snap", he threw the wine glass on the floor. Pieces.

"He thought he was who he was, and this invited him to invest because he could afford this hillbilly. Just because he still wants to invest in Hollywood, let's dream of it. ”

"That's it, I thought we would beg him, this yellow-skinned pig should go back to the other side of the Pacific!"

"Don't be angry, it's just a person who doesn't know how to seize the opportunity, thinking that he can sit and chat with us by selling some cattle and sheep, and the smell of on his body is about to smoke me to death."

Banner on the side couldn't listen anymore. That's his friend, and he didn't pull down his face to invite Wang Hao over to listen to other people's sarcasm.

So I didn't care about my identity. He snorted angrily: "Gentlemen, be careful of your words and actions. He is my friend, don't think you are noble, people are much more sincere than you. If it were me, I wouldn't have invested in this movie, just because you don't even want to do superficial work. ”

Banner was ashamed, he turned to these people and said, "I regret being friends with people like you, maybe you can end this drinking party first and find someone else!" ”

As the host of the drinking party, Banner took the initiative to drive away these guests, he was not embarrassed, he just tore his face, what mattered.

“So-sorry！” Banner came to Wang Hao, his eyes were full of apologies, he shouldn't have let Wang Hao pass.

"It's not your fault, you don't need to apologize. I'm ashamed of them. ”

Wang Hao patted Banner on the shoulder, that group of people deserves to be Hollywood's **, they want the money in their purse, but they don't want to be kind to themselves, how can there be such a good thing.

Banner could see that Wang Hao really didn't mind, but he had a hurdle in his heart, so he continued to explain: "I didn't expect them to be like that, don't take it to heart." Let me introduce you to my cousins. ”

"No, I'm not in the mood to socialize for the time being." Wang Hao said politely, he knew that Banner had good intentions, but this kind of upper-class communication made people feel upset.

Banner didn't insist on anything, he said, "If there's anything, you can tell me, we're still friends, right?" ”

Wang Hao laughed heartily: "Of course, there is no doubt about it! I really want your help with one thing, you have a lot of friends here in Europe, do you know anyone who wants to sell a castle? It's better to have a history, a beautiful appearance, and a comfortable one to live in. ”

"Are you serious?"

"Of course, while you still have some spare money in your hand, if you want to buy an ancient castle to try, you won't lose money anyway." Wang Hao Zhengse said that it can be regarded as an investment in these places.

There are many medieval castles throughout the European continent, with more than 40,000 for sale in France alone. It's just that these castles are sold at a high price, not only for renovations, but also for the annual maintenance costs, which are frighteningly high, and people who don't have money can't play with these castles at all.

This time, Wang Hao opened his mouth to inquire about Banner, just to see if there was a more reliable castle among his friends. The people who come and go are either rich or noble, and the castle in their hands must be good.

"To buy a good and affordable castle, you must first have enough time and energy. Among the castles in France, the ones that sell for less than 100,000 euros must be the so-called ruins, which require a lot of effort and money to restore. If it is a castle that looks in good condition, it will definitely sell for no less than 500,000 euros. ”

Banner said with a smile: "We have several castles in our house, including castles in England, Germany, and Austria. However, these castles can be very expensive, and the price of any one can be tens of millions of euros. Because this is already a cultural relic-level building. ”

"Then you have time to help me consult, the price is not a problem, the point is to be beautiful, retro on the outside, and modern on the inside. Of course, there is no rush for a while, after all, we are going back to Australia soon. ”

Whether it's a dilapidated castle that needs to be restored, or a castle in good condition, the annual cost of repair and maintenance can be very high.

The castle is definitely not a tight apartment, there are many rooms in the castle, the ceiling is high, the winter in Europe is very cold, and the heating costs far more than you imagined to warm such a large and empty place.

At the same time, there are many windows in the castle, and if you want to clean all the windows, it is not something that can be done in a day or two, you must have a servant and a butler. (To be continued.) )
