Chapter 119: The Man Who Experienced Despair (Thanks to the Crazy Oye's Floating Red 1/2)
Lin Dong put the things back in the office, teased the kitten cub who was sleeping on his desk, and then washed his hands before going to the Eagle Courtyard to meet guests.
A projector was installed in the Eagle Yard, and someone was watching the film with the projector at this time.
bald, with a very literary beard, wearing a regular suit, looking serious, he didn't even notice that Lin Dong pushed the door in.
What is playing on the screen is Du Qixi's new road.
It's not the same as the final cut that is shown in the cinema.
The one he broadcast should be an uncut initial version, which best shows the entire process of the director's shooting.
Lin Dong sat on the sofa, and his bald head was shocked to realize that someone had come in.
"I'm Lin Dong, you're the person in charge of Green Apple Animation, right?" Lin Dong took the initiative to stretch out his hand to introduce himself.
The bald head also hurriedly stood up and shook hands with Lin Dong: "I am Wang Zhou, the director of Lingshan King, and the person in charge of Green Apple Animation." ”
"I have admired the daimyo for a long time!"
I hate to see you late, I missed your first time, oh no, it's the first part, and I can't regret it.
"How dare you, how dare you, Mr. Lin just came back from Shencheng?"
This Lin Dong shouldn't be the Lin boss who can call the shots.
The animation director is also a director, and Wang Zhou is a person in the circle, so of course he can recognize Lin Dong as an actor.
"yes, I got off the plane last night."
"Oh yes, Shencheng International Film Festival, I thought you didn't want to see me."
Wang Zhou smiled bitterly, he had misunderstood.
In the past, there were too many encounters with walls, and I met too many managers who avoided talking and talking.
Kleist Culture Media was his last straw.
He was cheeky and stood guard at the door of the company.
He knew it was annoying.
But you can't help it.
With so many fans crowdfunding, if they still can't do it in the end, how many people will be disappointed.
Some people take a lot of money to make a bad movie with a 2.0 rating, and they can still have their faces and beep everywhere.
They are not the same, they have to be accountable to their fans.
A lot of the money in their hands is raised little by little by fans.
There may be money for the fans' breakfast.
There may be fans' New Year's money.
Some may even be so-called textbook fees that fans have scammed from their parents.
You have to do it to the death!
Not to mention such a shameless person who comes to the door every day to wait for people, people also invite him to come in and serve him tea and snacks.
Even if he was asked to squat at the door and wait, he would come and check in every day.
"Did you bring the project book?" Lin Dong stretched out his hand.
Wang Zhou hurriedly handed it over.
The project book is very detailed and professional, and Lin Dong understands most of it.
But he could at least see the sincerity in it.
"How much money is left?" Lin Dong closed the project book and put it on the small coffee table.
"We raised some of it ourselves, some of it our fans, and there is still a gap of more than 20 million."
Wang Zhou didn't know how much Kleist Culture Media could give.
A few days ago, the company invested 300 million in an animated film, which gave him hope.
It's just that he has been rejected too many times, so he doesn't dare to open his mouth.
"You raised some of it yourself, how did you raise it, didn't the first part lose?" Lin Dong was curious.
"I begged everywhere, and I wasn't afraid of your jokes, there were too many times to pester, and big companies would always send us away." Wang Zhou smiled shyly, with a little sadness in his helplessness.
"And what is your budget?" Lin Dong was curious about how many large companies he had entangled.
"The first part is 35 million cost, and the second part has the first part as the foundation, which can be a little less, but to learn the lessons of the first part of the publicity, we still have to make some budget for the publicity......"
"How much?"
"The production cost is about 20 million, and the publicity budget is 8 million."
"If you say 20 million, won't the quality of the movie itself be affected and reduced?" Lin Dong is really asking about this project, not just wanting to lose money.
"We'll do our best, theoretically not down."
"You don't have to pay so much attention to the problem of money......
Big brother, you don't feel a backache when you stand and talk, you haven't experienced our despair, and you don't know what it's like to be short of money everywhere and not even be able to pay your salary.
In fact, Lin Dong has also experienced despair.
He was desperate to see too much money.
"I mean, the animated movie "King of Lingshan", your painting is really good, but the storyline and characters are still a little unflattering, I think you can carve more about the movie itself."
Lin Dong really studied their film and then made his own personal suggestions.
If he really just wants to lose money, he doesn't bother to say this.
You'd better get into a dead end.
Honestly help me lose money, don't turn over for the rest of my life.
However, people with dreams deserve respect.
He sincerely hopes that after the support of one or two films, "The King of Lingshan" can rise, and then he can withdraw and let a conscientious animation company like Green Apple make money on its own.
"I see, we'll try." Wang Zhou nodded again and again.
"That's it, the production and distribution cost of the second part is still the same as the first part, our company pays 35 million, you just need to do the content with peace of mind."
"What?" It's not that I don't hear clearly, but I don't trust my ears.
Lin Dong babbled so much, he thought that Lin Dong was bargaining, thinking that their project was not worth so much investment, and wanted to reduce the investment given to them.
"I hope the second part will look better than the first." Lin Dong stretched out his hand.
"Certainly, we will do our best to make this project ......" Wang Zhou grabbed Lin Dong's hand and shook it desperately.
"Director Wang, you are doing production, just make a good movie, as for the outcome of the project, we are not worried, what are you struggling with?" Lin Dong interrupted him.
I hate to try to make money for myself.
How do you behave in the end to make others think that you are not bad for money.
Or make others think they hate money.
Wang Zhou got the investment contract on the same day, and he received all the money on the same day.
And what about Lin Dong.
He also completed the settlement on the same day.

The wizard took a deep breath.
The aroma of the Golden Galleon can be smelled through the system.
It's been a long time since I've seen my golden galleon.
But I still need more gold gallons, thirty-two is obviously not enough.
But don't rush it.
The wizard has found his way forward from two successful losses.
Animated films.
