Chapter 713: He's Successful Again, Rushing to Invest in "The Witch"
Wu Hu took Da Meili and Tie Tie to appear, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
They were puzzled, although they knew that Wu Hu and Da Meili had a good relationship in the survival show, but this survival show was over, why did they still maintain such a close relationship?
Then, they were surrounded by entertainers.
The celebrities who were more or less surrounded by one or two reporters before suddenly saw the reporters who interviewed them running away, and they were a little speechless.
But seeing that it was Wu Hu, everyone lost their temper again, in terms of popularity, which star in China can compare with this guy now?
is no longer out of the album, but Warner Records is still willing to sign him with a signing of 100 million, just to get the opportunity to hold a concert for him.
Who do you want to reason with this operation?
"Fat Tiger, Tie Tie, why did you get together with Da Meili?"
Wu Hu smiled: "We are good friends, what's so strange about walking together?" ”
Speaking of which, Wu Hu and Da Meili have not spent much time together, although there is not a lot of communication on the set of "Ghost", it is not all communication.
Needless to say, in that survival show, everyone heard Wu Hu say that they were 'good friends', and everyone didn't think there was anything wrong.
Da Meili smiled and said, "I invited Tie Tie to help me refer to the dress for attending this event today, and then I came together." ”
Seeing the red suit worn by Da Meili, someone smiled and said, "Sister Zeng, you and Tie Tie's outfit are quite compatible!" Can you stand together and let us take a few shots? ”
Da Meili wears a suit, which they have seen many times, especially after the broadcast of "Ghost", she has attended some domestic and foreign events, and this is the outfit.
's sassy and beautiful offensive spirit fascinated many of her fans.
Hearing this proposal, Da Meili put one hand in his pocket, and the other hand generously held Tie Tie's fragrant shoulder, held it in his arms, and posed against the flashing light.
Not to mention, Da Meili's posture of putting one hand in her pocket made her attack even more.
Wu Hu even believes that maybe tomorrow a tabloid reporter will say that she may come out.
"Fat Tiger, listening to Director Xu and the baby, you guessed early on that the box office of the drama "Thai Embarrassment" can break one billion, so do you think that your drama has the possibility of breaking the box office record of planting flowers?" Some reporters took the opportunity to ask the question they wanted to know the most.
When Wu Hu heard this, he smiled and shook his head, and said: "Whether or not you can break the box office record, it's not up to me to decide, it depends on whether the audience is willing to enter the cinema again." Judging from the current number of moviegoers of this play, there are actually still many audiences who have not entered the cinema. There's still some potential to it, so let's wait and see! ”
Wu Hu can't sing down the movies he invested in at this time, and if "Thai Embarrassment" can really break the record, it will also be good for their New World Media.
Although their film company doesn't have any award-winning works, it can make money! Although the background is insufficient, it is full of vigor and is the favorite of many cinema partners.
Moreover, didn't you look at the eyes of the Wang brothers?
Especially after the release of the movie "1942", they invested more than 200 million in this movie, but the box office was less than 400 million, and the direct loss on the account was nearly 100 million.
And what about "Thai Embarrassment"? With an investment of 50 million, the box office is now close to 1.3 billion.
Thinking about the gap, it's no wonder that the Wang brothers' eyes are red.
If you lose money yourself, others make a lot of money, and you panic when you think about it.
And on the light limit, now their intestines are all repentant, it's not that they are not optimistic about this movie, but what they originally thought was that it would be good to have a box office of two or three billion.
Invest 30 million, earn back 60 or 70 million, and make a net profit of 30 or 40 million at the same time, you can also raise the stock price of their company, and make a lot of money!
Can ...... now
Although the stock price is rising, they do make a lot of money, but the thought of making so much less than the full investment feels like a loss! If I had known that the box office of this movie was so crazy and perverted, I couldn't have given up this opportunity by saying anything!
It's a pity that this kind of afterthought is meaningless, and if you want to blame it, you can only blame them for not having the same vision in this regard as the fat tiger, and their courage is not as good as others!
Looking at Wu Hu's investments, it can only be described as the madness of a gambler, or who would dare to invest seventy or eighty million in the first drama to make a movie starring himself (New World)?
In the eyes of many people, this is no different from people who are stupid and play more tickets.
But he actually succeeded!
Who dares to write a script (lucky key) casually, hand over everything to others to operate without starring themselves, and invest tens of millions?
He dares!
And he's succeeded again!
Who dares to directly invest 40 million after simply reading the script, and completely let a novice director do whatever he wants (Thai embarrassment)?
He dares!
And he's succeeded again!
Now, everyone is staring at his new movie "The Amazing Demon Thieves".
If this film continues to be successful, then New World Media's position in the industry is really different.
The previous project can only be said to be in a bit of a market in Asia, but "Amazing Demon Thieves" is facing the world, will Europe and the United States buy it?
No one is sure, so many people are waiting for the release of this movie and waiting to see the reaction after the release of this movie.
If it does, then the situation is completely different.
Before, it was only Asian-all-inclusive, but it became a global all-in-one.
There is no film company in China that can cooperate with foreigners and succeed.
If New World Media succeeds, its status and symbolism in and out of the industry will not be the same.
After dealing with those entertainment reporters, Wu Hu was surrounded by the bosses of those film and television companies, and the Wang brothers were also inside.
Under normal circumstances, the brothers of the Wang family rarely appear at the same time, and on this occasion, it is the younger brother of the Wang family who usually appears, but tonight the king also came.
It's just that I didn't see their queen director Feng Dacang Gangzi, it is estimated that this veteran director, who claims to be no worse than the three major directors, is also a little difficult to face Xu Guangtou, a rising star! The face hurts too much, after the release of "1942" in "Thai Embarrassment", the box office began to plummet, and the kind that can't be saved if you want to.
This rising star is so showy! They all showed him off.
And the CEOs of these film and television companies naturally want to ask, is there any opportunity to cooperate with New World Media? After all, who doesn't want to drink soup with money-making movies!
New World Media, a small company, has not failed in any movie or TV series with a medium investment or above!
Even those small-budget movies, even if they don't make a big profit, they have a small profit, and there are very few losses. Even if it loses, it will not make New World Media break its bones.
Speaking of cooperation, Wu Hu's eyes widened slightly, and he said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I really plan to invest in a soft sci-fi movie after the New Year, you should have heard the rumors!" ”
"Fat Tiger, are you referring to the big heroine movie starring Sissi?"
The script of this movie has already been done, and even some shooting locations, as the director of this movie, Men Qing, have already been selected.
During the time when Wu Hu went to the survival show, some casting work was also quietly underway.
Although Wu Hu had already booked several important roles, Wu Hu threw some other minor roles to director Menqing to choose.
Of course, it was Wu Hu who made the final decision, lest someone rely on the right he gave him to go through the back door at will and stuff some unsuitable actors in.
Because of this, they did not conduct large-scale auditions. After all, it's not about choosing the main role, and conducting large-scale auditions seems to be a bit too exciting.
With his Wu Hu's current traffic and popularity, as long as there are movies he participates in, there is definitely no need to rely on auditions to promote, and he is not bearded.
Zhang Dabeard did that kind of thing, and he also got a backlash, and he filled the audience's expectations before the start of filming, but as soon as the things that were filmed pulled their hips, they immediately became scolded.
Wu Hu smiled and said, "Yes! There is no interest, the investment is still a bit big. ”
In another time and space, the investment in the movie "The Witch" is actually not large, only more than 5 million dollars, and it got a box office of more than 20 million dollars, which is obviously earned.
However, now, Wu Hu starred with Yahuazi, Mina, Tietie and others, this investment must not be small, and their salaries are quite high now, especially Wu Hu.
Even in "Embroidered Spring Knife 2", Wu Hu starred in friendship, but he still got a salary of 10 million, which was still Wu Hu's worth at that time.
Although he also has an investment in this movie, the majority of the investment is still in the film, so even if Wu Hu stars in friendship, he still has to receive a salary, but he is given a friendship price.
And now Wu Hu is not only a salary, but also a box office share.
Therefore, Wu Hu doesn't mind other companies coming in to get involved, who knows if this movie will be unadaptable! Yahuazi has never shown the ability to carry the box office alone, and whether the audience is willing to buy it is a matter of two questions.
Sci-fi + big heroine, this hard injury is somewhat forgetful.
However, Lao Wan of Star Film and Television didn't think much about it, and just asked: "What is the total investment of this play?" How much share can we get from Star Film and Television? ”
Wu Hu smiled: "The share is not too much, and the shadow has already asked for thirty percent." We at New World Media will keep 40 percent, and you can discuss the remaining 30 percent. This movie needs some special effects shots, after all, it's soft sci-fi. Coupled with the salaries of me and Sissi, as well as Tie Tie and a few of them, the investment is estimated to cost 50 million dollars......"
This investment is actually a bit tricky, even if his current salary reaches the level of 20 million dollars...... In fact, with his current popularity, it is not surprising that the salary has reached this level. But on Bald Eagle's side, there is certainly no company willing to pay him that price for a film, because he has not yet confirmed his box office prowess in Hollywood.
Compared with the investment in this movie in another time and space, it is directly nearly ten times more. However, if he calls out this price, and there are still people rushing to it, then the cooperation can be assured. After all, it's better to be generous than to work with those who buckle the rope.
And several film and television companies that heard this investment amount were also taken aback, 50 million dollars, that is more than 320 million kinds of flower coins.
More than 320 million, and the box office will take almost one billion to recover the cost.
Thinking of this box office result, many people couldn't help but gasp.
Think about the "New World" filmed by Wu Hu when he debuted, it received a box office of more than one billion in Asia, and with the market that Wu Hu has in Asia now, it is not a big problem to have a box office of one billion. In addition, in addition to box office revenue, you can also sell copyrights to Europe and the United States, or even release them directly in Europe and the United States. With Wu Hu's current international popularity, someone will definitely try to eat crabs.
Of course, if "Amazing Demon Thieves" fails, it is estimated that fewer people will try.
This requires them to take a bold gamble and bet that "Shocking Demon Thieves" can win!
Just paused, Lao Wan of Starry Sky Film and Television smiled directly: "If you don't want it, then the remaining three achievements will belong to our Starry Sky Film and Television!" ”
"Lao Wan! Thirty percent is a hundred million! Our Wang family can also eat 50 million out of this 100 million! Don't eat alone, those who see have a share, and those who see have a share......"
Xiao Wang laughed, and raised the wine glass in his hand to Wu Hu, and said: "Although it is not easy to recover the cost of such a large investment, I believe in the popularity of Fat Tiger in the world." What's more, this investment is not as big as "Shocking Demon Thieves"! ”
"Shocking Demon Thieves" invested 70 million dollars, and Wu Hu's New World Media directly ate 30 million dollars, which is still admired by many people in the industry.
After all, New World Media's size is actually not large, and its assets are dwarfed by those listed companies they own.
Look, as long as you have the ability to pull investment, it's as simple as that.
At this time, Mr. Wang, who had a light limit, smiled and said: "Since those who see it have a share, let's divide 30 million to give us the light limit!" ”
"We can fight too! Mr. Wu, consider us! ”
Wu Hu raised his glass and touched them, an investment share of 100 million, it's very simple!
At this time, Kang Zhi, as the planner of the event, and the person in charge of New World Media when Wu Hu was not there, directly acted as the host of the event.
first thanked the guests, then affirmed and thanked the main creative team of "Thai Embarrassment" for their achievements, and then invited the mountain carving to come to the stage to speak a few words.
Originally, Wu Hu was invited to the stage to speak a few words, but Wu Hu took the initiative to give full play to the traditional virtues of respecting the old and loving the young, and gave this opportunity to the sitting mountain carving.
Wu Hu knew that this sitting mountain eagle would call on everyone to go to the theater instead of him to help impact the final box office results of this play.
Sure enough, Wu Hu guessed correctly, after this mountain carving came to power, he began to tell about the development process of the flower planter's film, about the difficulty of it, and how the flower planter's movie was so pressed by Hollywood movies that he couldn't raise his head, so as to arouse everyone's patriotic feelings.
Not to mention, everyone listened very energetically.
PS: July is coming, sad to ask for a guaranteed monthly pass, thank you!
