"If you want to join us, in addition to your own sufficient capital, you also need to communicate with us and sign some treaties, after all, you can't do business without a little pay, right? Investing with us, it is a sure way to make a profit, basically, the risk is borne by the bank, and we are equivalent to picking up money. Do you understand?"

A pot-bellied rich man bit a big snow coffee and squinted at Cork and said.

There were a total of five or six wealthy bosses present, and they basically seemed to be willing to accept Huang Bai's participation for the sake of Kapok. But they all obviously have a mentality of seniors looking at juniors, and they don't look down on cork very much.

Huang Bai's music and movies seem to be very profitable. However, for these rich people, they actually know a little bit about the entertainment industry.

Making money in music and movies is making money, but it can't always be profitable. It's also a bit like gambling, this time, the movie was a big hit and made money, but what about next time? Who knows?

Nowadays, the entertainment industry seems to be very prosperous, and there are many movies released almost every day, but how much of those 100 or dozens of movies are really profitable? It's nice to be able to make money from 1 in 10 movies.

In other words, nine times out of ten, those who make movies lose money, and they can't even get back the cost. Every day, I don't know how many film companies go bankrupt because they made a movie and lost money.

Of course, there will always be many people who don't believe in evil, always thinking that they can make a movie and get money to make a movie, but as a result, they basically lose everything, and in the end they owe a lot of debt, and some people even jump off the building because of failure.

Don't think this is an exaggeration, but in fact, the reality is so cruel, and this kind of thing happens almost every day. Some people once compared such a situation in the film industry to stock speculation.

When people speculate in stocks, there are usually so many jumping incidents when they encounter a stock market crash, but in the film industry, there will be an incident of jumping off the building from time to time.

Even those entertainment companies with strong capital strength such as Thang Long Entertainment, Kapok Entertainment, etc., they will make ten or eight movies in a year, or even more. However, there are so many movies, and the real money may be three or so of them, and it still relies on the kind of movies of the small fresh meat genre, and the kind of movies that reap a wave of hype as soon as they are released.

And other movies basically lose money.

Or some people will say that a large group entertainment company like Cotton Tree Entertainment has an estimated market value of 10 billion or 100 billion, even if the movie loses a little money, it is nothing.

It would be a mistake to think so.

The reason why an entertainment group is valued by the market is how many tens of billions of assets are really just assets, and they are the market value assets of all the industries under their names combined.

As far as film production is concerned, they make so many movies a year, and the investment in a movie, according to normal calculations, that is, it also requires an investment of 30 tens of millions, which is considered an investment in normal production of films. And what about the big productions? That's an investment of more than 100 million, and some movies are an investment of 200 million, 300 million, hundreds of millions.

In this way, their annual investment in film shooting is more than 1 billion, and in fact, it is normal to invest 2 or 3 billion.

This means that the total annual box office revenue of their movies will almost need 10 billion to recover the cost.

But look at this film market, which film company says that its total box office revenue can reach 10 billion a year?

In other terms, it is a turnover of 10 billion.

Three hundred and sixty lines, so many industries, how many industries dare to say that their industry turnover will definitely reach 10 billion?

There are so many film companies, and none of them dare to say that their company will definitely be able to make a movie that hits the box office.

In recent years, there have indeed been more than three movies that have exploded at the box office every year, with a box office of two or three billion, a super hit, with a box office of over five billion, and a movie like Wufuxing, it would be good to have one or two movies a year.

And their film company

, who dares to say that the movie he made will definitely be a box office hit?

Therefore, in fact, most people will have a common sense, that is, making movies is the same as trading stocks, and it is indeed a bit of gambling.

If it is really easy to make money by making movies, then there are so many rich people in this world, and there are really many rich people with a net worth of 10 billions. It will definitely not be too much of a problem for them to come up with a billion and 800 million to invest in movies. With an investment of one billion and eight billion, if there is a movie that can reap billions of movie box office, then they will not be released, if every movie can sell well at the box office, then why should they invest in anything else? Isn't it nice to invest in movies? Isn't it better than what they invest in a business that returns 20% a year or something? Why don't those rich people invest in making movies?

This is that those who have money understand that the success rate of investing in making movies is too low and the risks are too high.

Making a movie does not mean that if you have money, you can make a good movie, it does not mean that you can make a good movie with money. What's more, sometimes, even if it's a good movie? If the market doesn't accept it, and the audience doesn't pay for it, then it's also a servant street.

Like Huang Bai, he made a film about Five Lucky Stars and it was a big hit at the box office, and in the eyes of these rich people, they felt that it was just an accidental event. They believe that it is impossible for Huang Bai to make a blockbuster movie like Wufuxing in a row.

If making movies is really so easy to make money, then why don't large entertainment groups such as Shenglong Entertainment and Cotton Tree Entertainment, which have been doing these careers, make money?

Like these entertainment groups, they have actually made movies that hit the box office, and there have also been movies with a movie that has earned five or six billion box office. But so what? Then so many movies were made, and how many movies could make money?

Are they investing less? No.

Like Shenglong Entertainment, it invested 500 million or 600 million yuan to make a movie last year, invited a large number of actors, actresses, and actresses, as well as Xiao Xianrou, Xiaohua, etc., to shoot together, and then also invited an internationally renowned special effects company to do movie special effects, but so what? By the time it was screened, the movie with high hopes only received two or three hundred million at the box office.

It's incredible, and no one knows what's wrong.

You must know that in terms of the current film market, it is the appeal of an ordinary little fresh meat, and after the release of this movie, even the pre-sale box office will have a box office income of two or three hundred million. But why is a big-budget movie that has been built so hard to hit the streets?

You must know that the box office of these two or three hundred million movies, in fact, more than 200 million of them is the pre-sale box office income. In other words, the box office of the movie that was less than 100 million in the later tens of millions was the total income in the following days.

This incident is still circulating on the Internet until now, and has always been regarded as a mocking joke by netizens.

How do you say that?

The main thing is that the audience has high expectations for such a so-called big-budget movie from the very beginning. I finally waited for the release, and I rushed in to see it, but as a result, what kind of stuff did I see this special thing?

If you want a plot without a plot, if you want acting skills without acting skills, you don't know what to do. It's not that those actors and actresses don't have acting skills, but they don't perform at all, and they don't know what they're playing.

Not to mention those little fresh meats and flowers.

Anyway, it is a bad movie from beginning to end, which is completely inconsistent with the audience's imagination and ruins the audience's three views.

What are you shooting?

It's like filming a dignified Guanyin ambassador into a smoky and flattering woman, and Tang Seng into a lewd and wet look. The so-called internationally renowned special effects give people the feeling that they are Sanmao special effects.

What do you think of this?

Some movie review websites give a rating that is almost a historical low, and if it is 10 out of 10, it is 1 point.

In this way, as soon as the movie was released, it was immediately bombarded by the audience, and the audience was extremely angry, thinking that they had been deceived, not only criticizing the movie on the Internet, but also asking for a refund.

Then some do not believe in evil

's audience went to the cinema to watch it, and it turned out to be really a movie that couldn't be worse than it said on the Internet, so they angrily joined the army of spitting this movie.

A movie's mouth stinks to the end, so no matter how many actors and actresses you participate in, no matter how many billions you invest in shooting, and no matter how well your movie special effects are done, then no one will really be willing to spend money to watch the movie. Even if there is their idol idol in the movie, the audience will not pay for it anymore.

In this way, the originally high film scheduling rate, but the attendance rate was too low, and the film schedule had to be reduced, and then, it was reduced to the point that it could not be reduced anymore, and there were still not many audiences entering the theater to watch the movie, so the only way was to take it off the shelves early.

And this situation is not the only one.

Almost every year, there are quite a few big-budget movies.

However, most of them have failed.

It can be seen that making a movie, no one really dares to say that it is a safe profit.

What about even an entertainment company with tens of billions of assets? If you say that you lose more than ten or two billion yuan a year, who can withstand this?

You know, an asset is an asset, and the bigger the company, the greater the annual expenses. And the company is not owned by a single person, there are generally several shareholders. Even if the company's annual profit dividends are not too much in their hands. Even if there are 10 billion, then if it is distributed to them, it may be 2 or 3 billion. However, what if you lose two or three billion? That means they have no income.

These rich people all know what the entertainment industry is all about, so they all think that Huang Bai, a kid, is just lucky to make a movie that hit the box office.

If you make a movie in the future, you may lose money.

In this way, now Kapok has introduced Cork to their exchange meeting. In their hearts, they feel that this is to make money with cork, so they naturally have a sense of superiority over cork, and there is a sense of self-superiority that they are seniors and have a little natural superiority.

At this time, Mu Hongmian also said, "Xiaobai, my sister won't pit you. Your mythical entertainment has been pretty good today. Sister Ke is also at the helm of an entertainment group and knows the difficulties of this industry. As the saying goes, no matter how high a person's talent is, there will always be a day when Jiang Lang will exhaust his talent. Today's mythical entertainment is really all supported by you alone. You've written so many music songs in a row now, which is more than a lot of music masters. But can you still guarantee that you will always be able to create such good music in the future? In terms of movies, too, no one can always make a blockbuster movie. At the beginning, when your parents first established the entertainment company, they were also talented and created a lot of good music, so they developed Songbai Entertainment to a certain scale, and then made several movies with good box office. But so what? Later, didn't Jiang Lang finish his talents? Isn't it hard to make better music? The movie also lost a lot of money, and then in order to maintain the company's operation, don't you have to find another way to invest, and you need another way to make money?" Z.br>

"Joining us is equivalent to giving you other ways to make money steadily. I won't hide it from you, behind us, there are powerful banks with foreign capital. As long as you agree to fulfill some obligations and responsibilities accordingly, then you will have a safe way to make money."

Mu Hongmian said, poured a glass of red wine for Huang Bai, handed it to Huang Bai and said, "Trust my sister, I will make you make more money."

Huang Bai took the wine, then clinked glasses with her, looked at her sideways and said, "I have always believed in you, Sister Mu. However, I always want to know that if I join, I can make money without even real investment, so what responsibilities and obligations do I need to fulfill? I don't think there's a free lunch in this world, right?"

"Of course I'll let you know that. We can talk about the specific operation slowly, not in a hurry. Now, my sister will let you see the many benefits of joining us, after all, what are we making so much money for? Isn't it for pleasure?"

Mu Hongmian said, put down the goblet in his hand, raised his hand and patted it lightly two or three times.

The other rich people laughed as if they understood, and then hugged each other

The woman next to her, up and down her hands.

And beside the two or three hundred pounds of rich woman, Huang Bai noticed that it was two bewitching women's clothing bosses who served her, if Huang Bai didn't pay attention to it, he thought it was also two beauties.

With the applause of Mu Hongmian, a few women with a physique posture slowly lined up from a side door.

They walked not far in front of Mu Hongmian, which was actually equivalent to standing in front of Huang Bai.

There are five or six women, wearing specially designed ancient Hanfu, the kind deliberately designed with special feelings, the key parts, looming, but all of them are wearing veils, hazy, so that people can only see the outline of their faces, but they can't see their appearance clearly.

"Sister Mu, this is ......" Huang Bai pretended to be puzzled.

"Little brother, this is the basic benefit of the exchange meeting, every rich man who is qualified to join our sister weaving can choose the princess provided here at will, and let them eat, drink and have fun with you. As for you, you can only choose two for the time being, and when you officially join, or you have more capital and a higher status in our organization, then you can enjoy more benefits."

"And such perks?" Cork was a little surprised.

"Rest assured, it's safe. They are specially trained. My sister secretly told you that some of these princesses are still virgins, and some are still stars. If you choose it, it's your luck, but when you come out to play, it's about having fun, and you should be able to figure out some rules. If you're lucky enough to pick a celebrity, please keep it a secret afterwards and don't spread it to others, so as not to have a bad impact on others." Half of Mu Hongmian's body lay on Huang Bai's body, and said softly in Huang Bai's ear.

"This...... Sister Mu, I, can I not choose? I—I really don't know any rules...... Actually, I just have Sister Mu with me, and I don't need those girls."

Huang Bai moved his butt slightly, as if he wanted to distance himself from Mu Hongmian, his luck flushed his face, and he pretended to be a little shy and innocent and didn't dare to look at Mu Hongmian.

"Huh? Are you blushing? Haha, Huang Shao, shouldn't you still be a ***?"

The two or three hundred pounds of rich woman not far away, she has actually been paying attention to the cork, and then she found that the cork seemed to be shy and cramped, so the two little eyes seemed to see a fresh prey, and they were a little shining looking at the cork and quipping with a smile.

I have to say that Cork asks himself if it is not those little fresh meat, but in the eyes of some people, Cork is more sunny and delicate than those little fresh meat, in fact, it is indeed more masculine, and it is born with a kind temperament that makes people feel kind, as long as it is a woman, I am afraid that there will be a subconscious that naturally wants to get close to this guy.

This rich woman, as soon as she saw Huang Bai, she kept staring.

However, she also knows that Huang Bai is not one of those sons here, she just needs to take a look, if it is normal, it will definitely not be able to get it. Of course, it's not that there is no way, if you play together, then she can secretly give Cork some medicine, at that time, Cork is not at her mercy?

This rich woman is called Pang Chunlian.

She is the heir to the Ponzi Functional Drink Group, her father is old, and now she is in charge of the affairs of the Ponzi Group.

Her husband is a door-to-door son-in-law, and in front of her is like a grandson, a man who doesn't dare to say a fart.

Her husband must not be satisfied with her, and with her figure, it must be difficult to find a little lover who agrees, don't say that she agrees, I'm afraid no one wants to be her lover, right?

Obese women also have their own needs.

But she has money, but she can't vent her frustration, so what's the use of having more money? No amount of money will make you happy.

Until, I met the wood red cotton.
