Chapter 280: I'm relieved to know that you're not doing well
This film is so high at the box office!
Lin Dong was taken aback, ten times worse than the box office he expected to be millions.
It seems that in addition to the good quality of the movie, the 15 million publicity funds were not taken in vain, and the box office of the movie almost exceeded 100 million.
However, after all, there is no danger.
Shun Shun deng succeeded in losing money, even if it was only a loss of more than 5 million - even if 5% of the cultural fund withheld nearly 7 million, that is a very remarkable achievement.
33 million on the account, waiting for the next target.
"Is it okay to do anything?"
In one day, two projects were invested in a row, with a total investment of 45 million, which can be invested in a medium-cost commercial film.
I didn't expect this husky to be satisfied.
He continued to stare at the two animation directors and ask about the project.
If there are any of your friends who can't find money, introduce them to me, and I'll give them money.
Both Niu Jian and Yang Sifan felt that they had encountered a neuropathy.
"I can't say that," Lin Dong shook his head and said, "At least there must be a level of project, no one's money is blown by the wind, and it is too bad not to invest." ”
"The wonton one, Brother Niu, did you say it?" Yang Sifan asked Niu Jian.
"Anyway, wontons are not short of money, that kid got so many bonuses, and it seems that he even got a film released last year." Niu Jian did mention wontons, and he and wontons belonged to a friendship that had borrowed money.
Of course, it was he who borrowed the money from the ravioli.
One day I couldn't hold on anymore, so I asked a few friends who could borrow some flowers, and I would pay it back when I made money from a private job.
Wonton had already become famous with "Big Watermelon" at that time.
lent him 20,000 yuan and let him last for half a year.
Later, he took the private job and returned the money.
Later, when he passed by Rongcheng, he also went to see the wontons.
"What, his money has long been spent, and now he has created a new project, I heard that it is quite expensive."
"In this way, then I have the opportunity to help Mr. Lin ask, Wonton has a project, the quality is absolutely fine, Wonton is a genius in the circle, and he controls the content very well."
Niu Jian patted his chest immediately and promised to ask Lin Dong out.
In the small talk, they also talked about some of the more miserable people in the animation circle, and the studio of "Monkey is Back" was also among them.
It is said that there was a time when a poor man could not afford to eat.
So a group of people went to help the farmer's uncle pick the fruit in his orchard.
Just rely on this salary and management, and stick to the next order to settle the money.
"In fact, if you want to say miserable, the worst should be Xu Chengyi."
Niu Jian suddenly remembered a person.
"Oh yes, Lao Xu is really miserable." Yang Sifan patted his thigh and immediately agreed.
"Who is Xu Chengyi?" Lin Dong had never heard of it.
"He's actually a Chinese, a Hollywood guy, an animation director and character designer at DreamWorks, right?" Niu Jian explained.
"Chinese-American, born in Xiangjiang, and director Chen Kexin are kindergarten classmates, you always know the monster Shrek, he was the character design and animation director in the first two films, and he participated in directing the third part." Yang Sifan helped add.
"I know this, but I didn't expect it to be made by a Chinese director."
"He also directed Puss in Boots, is it the second part or is it an outreach?"
"How miserable is he?" Lin Dong interrupted their discussion, he was not very interested in how many works Xu Chengyi had directed, he just wanted to know how miserable this person was, and whether he had a chance to participate.
"He's miserable."
"No, everyone was quite envious of him." Seeing that Mr. Lin was a little anxious, Niu Jian hurriedly went straight to the point.
Speaking of which, this Xu Chengyi is also unlucky.
When he felt that he had achieved something in his studies, he decided to return to China to prepare for "Monster Hunting".
The film is based on Chinese mythology and constructs a fantasy world where a man and a demon coexist.
It is neither an animated film nor a purely live-action film, it should be said that it is a combination of the two.
There are already quite a few abroad, but there is basically a blank at home.
The project was unattended at first.
Because this animator who came back from Hollywood DreamWorks has a lot of things in his head that make people feel out of place.
Later, someone was finally moved by him.
This person is Jiang Zhigang, who is known as "Asia's No. 1 Producer".
He is not only the behind-the-scenes operator who has made Li Chen's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Zhang Luo's "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides" a great success, but also the first overseas Chinese distributor in the era of Chinese blockbusters.
He is actually not very rich, and being a producer is not his own money to invest in movies.
For this movie, he bet almost half of his net worth.
One hundred million!
However, for people who play animated movies in Hollywood, 100 million dollars is not necessarily enough, let alone Huaxia coins.
The money is spent before you know it.
I can only ask Jiang Zhigang for it.
Jiang Zhigang took it several times, not only did he give all his family funds, but even his son's wedding house was mortgaged to the bank.
The cost quickly tossed to 200 million.
Fortunately, the movie is finally finished, and it is waiting for the end of this year to be released.
Then last month, an actor surnamed Ke, who was one of the leading actors, was knocked out by the Chaoyang crowd, and Fang Long's son had a virtue.
The mainland has absolutely zero tolerance for such behavior.
The movie is completely cool.
"So, there is really nothing worse than Lao Xu." Xu Jian was full of emotion.
"One person has broken down a project, so it's safe for us to make an animated film." Yang Sifan expressed his opinion.
Although it is biased, I have to admit that the surname Ke is really disgusting.
"This person, I remember when I met him at the Shencheng Film Festival, when he and Su Hao walked together, he was really in high spirits." Lin Dong's tone was inevitably a little gloating.
At that time, Su Hao came over and invited Lin Dong to participate in her charity ceremony.
surnamed Ke held the hand of the goddess, he became popular in several "Big Times", and also took over a big production of 200 million yuan like "Monster Hunt".
Very villainous ambition.
may still wait to see how Su Hao blocks Lin Dong.
No way, peers are jealous, in his opinion, Lin Dong may be the same as him to take the route of a handsome guy idol.
It's just that the world is impermanent, and Su Hao came to apologize.
And he was also planted in the hands of the Chaoyang masses, and he was completely blocked without leaving a trace.
"Lao Xu estimates that he has the heart to kill, but no matter how angry he is, it is useless, and the surname Ke will definitely not be able to get on." Niu Jian shook his head.
"It's not that you can't get on, you can't just change people and make up for the shooting." Yang Sifan seems to have heard something.
"Reshoot? To put it lightly, a leading actor with the heaviest role, if someone else shoots, the workload will be too great, what is the difference between it and a remake of the movie. Niu Tendon argued with Yang Sifan again.
