Chapter 58: The Iron Forest of Seeking Truth from Facts [Second Update]
Normally, the investors of a blockbuster film are often very complex.
In order to diversify risks and avoid eating alone to avoid public anger, super blockbusters generally have many investors.
However, Huawen did not plan to let other investors join the investment of "Shanghai Fortress" this time.
Because this is a blockbuster that clearly makes money.
Makinoyuki's novel adaptation, super IP, is expected by the whole people.
Coupled with the publicity and distribution ability of the Chinese language, the all-star lineup, there are no other flaws except for the director's weaknesses.
And the director's point is completely made up for because of Muyuki.
Therefore, Huawen does not intend to leave the opportunity to make money to others.
This is also the biggest reason why Muzhi wants to trap them.
The cash flow of 600 million is not a small amount even for a listed company.
LeTV collapsed because of 200 million that year.
Chinese is definitely stronger than LETV, but 600 million is just the production cost, and there is also the cost of publicity and distribution in the later stage, this kind of super blockbuster, the publicity and distribution cost cannot be too low, 100 million is the starting price.
If "Shanghai Fortress" can't be released, this wave of operations is likely to make the Chinese completely cool.
Of course, Hua Yingying and Wen Hongyi didn't know Mu Zhi's true thoughts, they just carefully inquired about Mu Zhi's performance in the crew out of prudence.
The response they received was reassuring.
Ke Zhendong: "Director Zhang is very powerful, the scheduling of the camera and the training of the actors' acting skills are breathtaking, he is the strongest director I have ever worked with." I'm confident that this movie might win me the Silver Horse Award, and it will definitely be a box office hit. ”
Prince Long nodded: "Dongdong is right, Director Zhang is indeed very responsible, I watched some of the finished films, which are shocking, and they are completely comparable to "Interstellar", which is amazing." With Director Zhang's fame and the promotion of Chinese, it is impossible for this movie to lose. ”
Both of them said this, and Hua Yingying and Wen Hongyi had no reason not to believe it.
"Okay, then invest another 300 million." Hua Yingying made up his mind.
Wen Hongyi even said: "I heard that the Iron Throne also spent a huge amount of money to make a science fiction movie called "The Wandering Earth", the director is a newcomer, and the investment is not lower than "Shanghai Fortress". In fact, let me say, if you want to grab the first place in "Shanghai Fortress", Brother Hua, the Iron Throne has this kind of courage, it doesn't make sense that we don't have it. ”
Hua Yingying also heard about this and nodded: "I have also heard about it, that director has also been overspending, and the super Iron Throne can't afford it, and he has been seeking investment from outside recently, and Tie Zhan even called me." ”
"That's definitely not going to vote." Wen Hongyi said.
Hua Yingying chuckled: "Of course, our cash flow is also limited, and we will definitely give priority to investing in Shanghai Fortress." "The Wandering Earth"? At first glance, it's a thing that hits the streets. It is said that in the future world, the earth's energy is exhausted, and the people of Huaguo take the earth to wander, and YY's is boundless. ”
"This kind of broken plot? This director's head is in water, right? Why don't you look for a Chinese person to be the starring role? "The first time Wen Hongyi heard about this kind of plot, it felt incredible.
Hua Yingying also thinks the same way: "Little pink is inflated, it's normal, and they will know what cruelty is after the movie is released." ”
In fact, the plot of "Shanghai Fortress" is also about the people of Huaguo saving the world.
But they didn't dare to let Mu Zhi change the script, and "Shanghai Fortress" is not so much a science fiction film as a romance film.
So the two of them can quite accept this setting.
"The Wandering Earth" is different, it is a complete sci-fi blockbuster, and before that, Huaguo people have never been able to save the world in sci-fi movies, and Huaguo has never made a decent sci-fi movie.
So it's normal for Hua Yingying and Wen Hongyi to be sneering.
You don't see that after the release of "The Wandering Earth", he was forced to give a bunch of bad reviews without watching movies, all of them were "Huaguo people can't make science fiction movies" and "Space Wolf Warrior".
If you kneel for a long time, you can't stand up, and many Huaguo people have this problem.
……
Hua Yingying and Wen Hongyi wanted to watch the jokes of "The Wandering Earth", so they raised their support for "Shanghai Fortress" to a higher level.
The 300 million funds were quickly approved, and Mu Zhi and Tie Lin could happily wave again.
A director who doesn't burn money is not a good director, and no director thinks he invests too much, and Tielin is the same.
After the funds were sufficient, Tielin's money burning efforts also went to a higher level.
In this regard, Mu Zhi said that Lao Tie is good.
The filming went very smoothly, with the full support of Huawen, and the identities of Mu Zhi and Tie Lin were placed here, and no one dared to trouble them.
This made Tie Lin feel very happy, and privately praised the cultivation of these actors to Mu Zhi: "Mu Zhi, Zhendong is really amazing. can have this kind of acting skills at this age, and the image is still so clean, amazing, much better than these traffic stars in our mainland. He is also an anti-drug ambassador, and it is not easy to be handsome and upright. ”
Makiyuki: "Hehe. ”
Although the acting skills of traffic stars in the mainland are really spicy, people don't take drugs.
The former is a matter of competence and the latter is a matter of law.
Tie Lin didn't hear the ridicule in Mu Zhi's tone, and continued to praise: "There is also Teacher Wu Xiubo, a real powerful actor, and he is very easy-going, he really has both ability and political integrity, and he is worthy of being an old artist." ”
Makiyuki gave Lao Tie a thumbs up.
"Mr. Zhai Tianlin's acting skills are also very good, he is definitely excellent among actors of the same age, I heard that he is going to be admitted to Beijing University for a postdoctoral fellow, and sure enough, excellent people are working so hard."
"Lao Tie, your eyes on people are really amazing." Makiyuki praised.
Tie Lin smiled very happily: "Yes, I feel the same way, these actors are really of high quality and very capable." Even Prince Long is very dedicated, I thought at first that he was mixing in the entertainment industry in the name of his eldest brother, and he didn't have much strength. ”
You're right.
"I was wrong, in fact, Prince Long is also very good, and he is bold and generous, with a full sense of justice. It's because I've always been prejudiced against him, but he's also a very nice person, especially to his friends. ”
Makiyuki stared at Tie Lin's mouth seriously.
This is definitely a light, right?
Tell me what poison milk ability you awakened?
Has Reiki been revived?
"Makinoyuki, what do you think I'm doing?"
"It's okay, you're right, I'm reflecting on whether I had some preconceived prejudices against stars in the entertainment industry before." Makiyuki doesn't blush when he lies now.
Tie Lin said with a straight face when he heard this: "Muzhi, I wanted to talk about you for a long time, you are indeed prejudiced against the entertainment industry." Most of the stars in the entertainment industry are actually very good in character, and stars with poor character can't get ahead at all. Just like these actors in our crew, all of them have both ability and political integrity, so they can become big stars. Don't take the prejudice of outsiders against the entertainment industry seriously, we have to seek truth from facts. ”
Makiyuki: "(●゚ω゚●)"
I don't know what to say, I'll give you a fork.
