"The investment in this film is 3 million. I will give 1 million of them myself, and if you want it, I can give you a share. ”

"Wow! Can you make money? ”

"Who can guarantee this? Let's open five-five! But in the future, we will be people in the film industry, not only going out to have face, but also being a star. Hehe. ”

"I'm mine."

"Keep me a copy!"

“……”

The crowdfunding process went quite smoothly, with everyone else subscribing for a share of 200,000. Li Yuan also subscribed for a copy, and even noticed that Ying Xin was a little hesitant, so he took the initiative to subscribe for her.

Although I know that the money is basically thrown into the water, there is no need for everyone to be drunk and I am sober. HK$200,000 is not much!

You must know that these people are all Huang Jiaojiao's fox friends and dog friends, so this investment is mainly social. Just like when "Casino" was published, these people also used to pay for the show, but now they have been replaced by Li Yuan's money.

In a way, if you know the pit, you have to jump down. It's also a courtesy.

However, at this moment, Sun Haojiang suddenly pointed at Li Yuan and Ying Xin with a big grin: "You mainlanders don't have much money, so there's no need for this." If we accept it, we will give 100,000 yuan! Hehe. ”

Ying Xin didn't feel offended.

In this era, Hong Kong and Taiwan generally discriminate against mainlanders, and unconsciously reveal that they have that kind of superior demeanor. And mainlanders also feel quite normal, as if they are inherently inferior.

But Li Yuan felt a little uncomfortable. It should be said that this Sun Haojiang is a good intention, maybe even they don't feel anything wrong.

But as a soul from decades later, and an arrogant IT elite, only Brother Yuan, I look down on you, where is your turn to look down on me?

But here, too, it is impossible to attack on the spot. Li Yuan's expression did not move at all, and he nodded with a smile: "Then 100,000!" Hehe. ”

“……”

This little turmoil passed quickly, and even the others were almost unaware.

The group of young masters and young ladies also left quickly, they were busy continuing to look for other investors, and even made an appointment to find the crew to have a party together in a few days......

Only the Huang family brothers and sisters, Li Yuan, and Ying Xin were left here.

Li Yuan smiled and explained to Xin: "Xinxin, I'll pay for the 100,000 yuan." ”

"No, no, no." Ying Xin waved her hand again and again.

"I don't mean to look down on you, huh? This movie is not very reliable when you listen to it, and it will basically be thrown into the water. ”

"Hey, you still know about movies?"

"Didn't I tell you? I'm an artist! Hahaha! ”

One thing to say, among all the people present, Li Yuan knows the film industry the best, and he has also managed several film and television projects in his previous life.

Although those projects ...... Don't mention it!

But at least the project process, crew structure, staffing, capital exchanges, ...... are quite familiar.

Actually, it's not that complicated. The IT industry needs to fool investors, and film and television projects don't still fool investors to make movies? is just a few hundred people, but it is much simpler.

Otherwise, how could Li Yuan have the energy to take care of it at that time?

Even after seeing the filming process, Li Yuan operated it a few times with his own hands, and I feel that I can do it too?

Due to the extensive use of digital shooting technology, coupled with the fact that the Internet is full of film resources, that is, there is a place to pull the film to learn by yourself, making movies is indeed becoming easier and easier.

It needs to be explained here: if you want to shoot a blockbuster with technical content, you still need a famous director and famous photographer. Again, there is no substitute.

But for ordinary movies, find a good photographer, a few good actors, plus an experienced and mature crew, and let a dog be the director!

However, when the words fell into the ears of the two girls, they thought that it was Li Yuan's bragging.

"Are you still an artist? Want to laugh at us? ”

"He's a big liar, ignore him."

"That's right! Such an old-fashioned person, still making movies? I'm pretty much the same. ”

"Hey, Lisa, you want to make a movie?"

"That's right! I want to invest in those art films, that's the real taste. It doesn't matter if you make money or not. Unlike some people, it's unbearable! Hum! ”

"Yes, yes! I wrote a screenplay when I was a freshman, and I won an award from our school. ”

"What award?"

"Third prize. Hey. Actually, they have no eyes, and what I dug was a rural girl who met a ......"

“……”

Li Yuan and Huang Dongsheng looked at each other. Two girls discuss women's art films? Come on! Have you two ever met a rural girl? There's another ...... No, there are several dead and alive loves?

If the movie just now was a street fight, the two of them are fighters in the street!

But seeing the two of them talk more and more, they are getting more and more energetic. Let them go! If you're happy!

Anyway, the eldest lady hasn't made any money yet, and she has started to float again. Want to pursue art cinema now? What other taste? Dizzy!

"Li Yuan, did you hear it, you have to help us!" Huang Jiaojiao suddenly pointed at Li Yuanjiao and shouted.

Huang Dongsheng on the side almost didn't laugh, with a gloating expression.

Li Yuan was inexplicable: "Then you go to shoot?" What's the matter with me? ”

"We're going to make art, and now we're missing an errand boy! Hum. ”

"Uh...... Two sisters, do you know that there are professional producers? ”

"I don't care. And what about the money? ”

"Huh? Do you need me to pay? ”

"What do you say?"

Huang Dongsheng finally couldn't help laughing wildly, he gave a look of self-begging for blessings, and then hurriedly fled from this Shura field.

……

Finally, when it was time for the noon break, the closing price was HK$1.53.

Qin Lang called: "Yuanshao, our acquisition cost in the morning is 1.42." It's ......"

"Isn't that nice?"

"That's it...... We only bought just over 4.3 million shares. ”

Li Yuan felt inexplicable. Wouldn't it be better to be able to buy less? There will also be fewer losses in the future. How is this Alang like this? Does he have the potential to be two or five boys, can't he see his boss?

"What's wrong with that?" Li Yuan finally couldn't help but ask.

"There is little edge, according to the turnover rate in the morning, there should be other people sweeping the goods."

"Sweeping?"

"That's right! According to their modus operandi, it should be a large institution. Yuanshao, isn't it your friend? ”

Li Yuan was confused, are there any big institutions entering? But on second thought, it's my business.

"Aaron, you don't have to worry about it. Execute as originally planned. ”

"I understand, I understand." Qin Lang understood, he must have made up a lot of things in his brain, "But there is little fate, if someone grabs shares with us, the acquisition cost will increase, and we will make a little money in the future?" ”

Li Yuan didn't laugh, it turned out that this kid meant this: "Alang, the money is endless." ”

"I understand, I understand. I just want to have a good performance in front of you, and strive to get a little more red envelopes? ”

"Huh. The red envelope will not forget you. ”

"Then thank you boss. If you have less fate, I won't bother you. ”

Li Yuan didn't think about making a price difference at all, so he didn't care about the acquisition cost. But there are still institutions entering? That's interesting......

By the time the afternoon opened, the price was still hovering around 1.5, and everything seemed to be uneventful, and it seemed that this price had been maintained.

Li Yuan found a magazine and flipped through a few pages casually. However, it didn't take long to see Huang Jiaojiao and Ying Xin pulling Huang Dongsheng over. Huang Dongsheng shouted with a sad face: "Yuanzai, take care of these two women!" They're crazy, they're really ready to make a movie! ”

"Huh?"

Li Yuanle is happy, this movie is not over yet? I thought these two girls were on a whim, and maybe they would forget it after a while.

Huang Jiaojiao excitedly hugged Li Yuan's arm: "Xiao Yuanzi, we have already calculated, let's take 5 million to make a film." We don't want more, as long as we can find a popular star, the box office of millions in Hong Kong and millions in Southeast Asia is a matter of earning more and earning less. And we invest it all ourselves. Fertilizer and water do not flow out, and the family will get rich together! Hahaha. ”

Huang Dongsheng hurriedly shouted: "Little sister, don't count me, I'm not from your family." ”

"Second brother~!"

Hearing this coquettish voice, Huang Dongsheng was so frightened that he trembled. He was full of grief and indignation: "Little sister, tens of thousands of yuan are fine, do you want me a million?" Or only give me 10%? ”

"Don't worry, big brother can't escape!"

"I pick! Is this a big brother problem? Yuanzai, you quickly persuade her. ”

Li Yuan couldn't cry or laugh, Huang Jiaojiao's business is very skilled, huh?

"Jiaojiao, Xinxin, what are you going to make?"

"Art films, of course! The commercial film is too low in style and not suitable for us at all. ”

"Yes. Yuanzi, just use the script I wrote. Don't worry, if something doesn't fit, I can go to the professor at the school to correct it. ”

As soon as he heard this, Li Yuan was even more uneasy. Alas! The young people of this era killed people!

"And what about the popular stars?"

"Birch, of course. He'll always give this face, right? We don't pay less. ”

"Wait." Li Yuan felt a little confused in his brain, "The protagonist of that film is a rural girl, right?" Do you use birch? ”

Ying Xin hurriedly explained: "That's why you have to change the script?" ”

“……”

Li Yuan was speechless. Lonely Liang, you are all talents!

At this time, Li Yuan already understood Huang Dongsheng's pain very well, this was simply watching his sister jump into the fire pit!

After thinking about it for a few seconds, I can't see death without help.

Li Yuan sighed: "Alas——! So be it! Let's start from scratch. Do you want to make an art film? The box office is not important, mainly for the awards? ”

Huang Jiaojiao smirked: "Hehe, it's already good to be nominated." ”

Ying Xin was also smirking: "We haven't thought about winning any film awards, the level is definitely not enough." As long as it can be released in theaters, we will be happy. Hey, hey, hey. ”

Li Yuan was directly angry, thank God, you also know that your level is not enough?

"Alright! Let's set our sights low and attend the Cannes Film Festival! ”

"Huh? Cannes? Are you lowering your goals? Huang Jiaojiao was taken aback.

Ying Xin on the side was a little confused: "What is the Cannes Film Festival?" Can't you have a golden rooster and a hundred flowers? ”

Lie down! Li Yuan was so angry that he was about to burst into tears. Just this kind of layman? Don't even know about the Cannes Film Festival? Dare to make a movie? Or is it a broken art piece?

"Xinxin, do you know Lao Mouzi's "Red Sorghum"? Won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival. There are three major film festivals in Europe – Cannes, Berlin and Venice. Among them, the Cannes Film Festival has the highest status. ”

Ying Xin's eyes lit up: "That's it?" That's good! ”

Huang Jiaojiao on the side hurriedly interrupted: "Xinxin, don't listen to him brag, is the Cannes Film Festival so good?" Xiao Yuanzi, I don't bother to pay attention to you when I brag at other times, but now I am not allowed to joke. ”

"How can you be joking?" Li Yuan said with a smile.

Due to the experience in his previous life, he has been in contact with many people in the film and television industry, and Li Yuan still knows some insider information.

"Jiaojiao, Xinxin, and Brother Dongsheng, you may have misunderstood a little and thought that it would be difficult to participate in the international film festival. That's only half true. International film festivals such as the Cannes Film Festival have more than 1,500 films selected for each edition......"

"So much?" Ying Xin was taken aback.

"That's right! In fact, there are generally the following ways to select and send films: one is the recommendation of large studios. Like the seven major Hollywood studios and several major domestic film studios, including those in other countries; The other is the recommendation of filmmakers in various countries and regions. They are generally descendants of major film festivals. We here, including Hong Kong and Taiwan, should be Yang Dechang and Yang Dao, right? If you know it, there will be convenience. However, these two methods are very difficult, after all, big studios and film selectors will cherish their feathers and will not recommend people casually, or in other words, there are only new works by famous directors, and newcomers basically have no chance. ”

"So what to do?" Huang Jiaojiao hurriedly asked.

"There are several ways." Li Yuan smiled: "The Organizing Committee of the Cannes Film Festival has an agency company. As long as the video is sent there, they will act as an agent for the whole process; Finally, I personally sent it to the organizing committee. As long as the most basic requirements are met, the organizing committee will also accept it. ”

Huang Dongsheng immediately asked: "Yuan Zai, according to what you mean, isn't it just spending money?" ”

Li Yuan laughed: "It's just spending money." For example, agency companies, they can not only act as an agent for film selection and delivery, but also as an agent for film festival advertising, business operations, and even one-stop service for cocktail parties. Including renting island supermodels, inviting local celebrities, that is, those European politicians and aristocrats, as long as you spend money! ”

"Huh?" After listening to Li Yuan's introduction, the other servants always felt a little disillusioned. Huang Jiaojiao had an expression of disbelief, "Xiao Yuanzi, don't lie to me, it's so easy?" ”

Li Yuan smiled: "Don't think it's easy. A trip to Cannes is hundreds of thousands of back and forth. If you take the entire crew and walk the red carpet and do publicity, one million will disappear. If you bring your own makeup artist, image artist, film crew, etc., and have a drinking party, how much will you spend? Even if it is the cheapest kind, hundreds of thousands of back and forth, plus the tens of thousands of agency fees, this can already stop the vast majority of people! No way, the poor have no human rights! ”
