When he saw Zhang Chen again, he was smoking a stuffy cigarette with Liu Hongtao, and when he saw Huo Yunting looking up, "Mr. Huo is here, please take a seat." This is ......"

"Mr. Zhang, my name is Zhang Debang, and I am the general manager of Xiting."

"Manager Zhang, I'm glad to meet you, we're still a family."

The four of them didn't have too many politeness, and went straight to the point.

"Mr. Huo, I heard that you like a script of our Happy Twist?"

Huo Yunting nodded slightly, Yan Fei really told Zhang Chen about this.

To be honest, the surname Yan is not very authentic. If Zhang Chen intervenes, then the transaction object will change from Yan Fei to Happy Twist.

It's just that Yan Fei is willing to hand over this unfinished book to Happy Twist, which means that Zhang Chen should have promised a lot of benefits.

However, Huo Yunting is not interested in what the two have talked about, all he wants now is the film copyright of "Charlotte's Troubles".

"Mr. Zhang, let's not talk about the old days, let's just talk about the copyright of the movie "Charlotte's Troubles".

"Then for sure, I invited Mr. Huo to come today to talk about this matter."

Zhang Debang beside him cheered up his spirits, and he couldn't relax in today's conversation.

The clock on the wall ticked quickly, and an hour passed, and Huo Yunting changed from solemnity at the beginning to impatience.

I thought that Zhang Chen invited him today to explain that there was a drama to talk about the copyright of the movie "Charlotte's Troubles", but I didn't expect to talk for a long time, and finally went back to investing in Happy Twist.

"Mr. Huo, if you look at it from a long-term perspective, let's be happy-"

"Mr. Zhang, if you say this, we don't have to talk about it."

Putting on his coat, Huo Yunting turned around and left.

"Alas, Mr. Huo! Don't go, let's discuss everything! At least listen to me. ”

Huo Yunting turned his head with a helpless face, "Mr. Zhang, we have already talked about investment before, but I don't have to talk about it, I'm not interested in Happy Twist." ”

"I understand, I understand." Liu Hongtao hurriedly got up and pulled Huo Yunting back into his position, "Mr. Huo, listen to Mr. Zhang's words." ”

Zhang Chen coughed twice, "Mr. Huo, I know you're not interested in Happy Twist, you just want a book." So what if you use the money you invested in Happy Twist as a buyout fee for the book? ”

Hearing this, Huo Yunting's eyebrows raised slightly, and it took a long time before he spoke quietly, "Mr. Zhang, I'm surprised, there should be a lot of people who come to you to invest, right?" Why do you recognize me? ”

This is true, there are indeed some investors who take the initiative to find the door, and they are not bad.

For example, Huaxia Cultural Investment Fund has been in contact with Zhang Chen.

It's just that the other party is talking too much, and he always wants to stretch his hand to the happy twist everywhere. There's not much money to do, so don't you just want to listen to politics and put yourself in the air.

Can he bear this?

In comparison, Huo Yunting is much easier to talk to.

"Ahem, Mr. Huo, I believe in your character."

Huo Yunting nodded slightly, "Thank you Mr. Zhang for your trust." ”

As soon as I say that, and when you hear it, everyone knows what's going on.

"How? What do you think of the option of investing instead of buyout? Huo Yunting shrugged, put down Erlang's legs, and his face finally became serious again, "Then let's have a good talk." ”

Zhang Chen didn't want a little money, one or two million couldn't satisfy him. Naturally, he wanted more.

But the problem is that the script of "Charlotte's Troubles" is not worth that much money. At least that's what everyone in the room thinks.

Especially Zhang Chen.

To be honest, this script is on the edge of legal copyright, and judging from the current situation, he feels that hundreds of thousands of this script will be up to the sky, and Huo Yunting's willingness to pay one million is really interesting enough.

In the end, he decided to press the film copyright of "Donkey Gets Water", which was the one that Huo Yunting was very optimistic about before.

"Mr. Huo, "Donkey Gets Water" and "Charlotte's Troubles", the film copyright of these two books is 2.3 million, this is my bottom line."

Huo Yunting raised his eyebrows slightly, rubbing his chin thoughtfully, "Mr. Zhang, I'm wondering if we should change the way?" Let's calculate the revenue of the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" according to the share, how about it? ”

"Ahem." Zhang Chen coughed heavily, "Forget this." Mr. Huo, to put it mildly, I personally am very optimistic about the script of "Charlotte's Troubles". ”

This is the truth, but it is also a face-saving story.

What does it mean to share the revenue of the movie, that is, to let you also invest in the money of the movie, to put it bluntly, Happy Twist can't get the investment money for the movie.

Now is the key turning point in the expansion of Happy Twist Drama.,If you turn well, you'll overtake in corners.,If you don't turn well, you'll lose your car.,How can you have the leisure time to take care of a book that hasn't even been performed for the first time.。

Huo Yunting and Zhang Debang glanced at each other with a tacit understanding, it seems that this is a lack of confidence.

Lao Zhang couldn't help but straighten his waist, and now he has confidence.

The later process is to see Zhang Debang's personal performance, and he is not good at talking about cooperation and biting prices, so he still has to let Lao Zhang go out in person.

This time it was not like talking about cooperation in the past, as if it had to be negotiated for three or four rounds before it could be decided, only this time for two hours, and finally the two sides made a decision, Xiting acquired 31% of the shares of Happy Twist at a price of 8.5 million, plus the film rights of "Donkey Gets Water" and "Charlotte's Troubles".

And the screenwriter is required to finish the full movie script.

In addition to these two books, 31% of the shares are not all taken out of Zhang Chen's hands, and there are several other investors, which can be regarded as their equal sharing.

After the negotiation was settled, Zhang Chen and Liu Hongtao both showed relieved smiles on their faces, and then they just signed the contract.

"Mr. Huo, we have a happy cooperation."

Huo Yunting smiled slightly, shook hands with the two, and then beckoned Zhang Debang to leave.

From Huo Yunting, he has attracted an investment of more than eight million, and people do not interfere in the internal development of Happy Twist, Zhang Chen's whole person is about to float.

His grandmother's, finally don't have to look at the faces of the hangers of the Huaxia Cultural Investment Fund.

From a certain point of view, Huo Yunting can be regarded as an angel investor of Happy Twist.

The two left, and Liu Hongtao escorted them all the way.

When he was about to get into the car, he suddenly asked: "Mr. Huo, I have a question I want to ask, I don't know if it's ......."

"Please."

"This investment of 8.5 million seems to have far exceeded the registered capital of Xiting, right?"

"So what?" Huo Yunting raised his eyebrows slightly.

Liu Hongtao looked at Huo Yunting's face, and his wording became more and more deliberate, "Mr. Huo, how much do you plan to invest in the film "Charlotte's Troubles"? Of course, I was just curious and casually asked, absolutely nothing else. After all, no matter how much money the movie "Charlotte Troubles" makes, it doesn't matter to me. ”

Zhang Debang in the back seat pressed down the window and happily lit a cigarette, "Mr. Liu, let me tell you a little news in advance, just a few days before you looked for Mr. Huo, Coca-Cola invited Brother Huo to be the image spokesperson of the Chinese region." ”

He paused, admired the kaleidoscopic expression on Liu Hongtao's face for a while, and then flicked the cigarette ash, "The cost of a year's words is thirty-eight million." “

Liu Hongtao took a deep breath, and then bowed slightly and apologized, "Mr. Huo, I'm really sorry, I'm a mouthful, don't think about it." ”

Huo Yunting smiled, didn't say a word, and then the car went away.

The car was completely dusty, and Liu Hongtao, who was choking with exhaust fumes pouring into his nostrils, coughed for a while.

He had mixed feelings in his heart, and it was false to say that it was not sour.

38 million a year, people can buy most of the happy twist by paying half a year's endorsement fee.

But people don't look down on it.

Alas, fuck.

The car drove towards the company, and Zhang Debang chattered along the way about the battle of wits and courage between himself and the two people who talked about Happy Twist.

After talking for a long time, he raised his eyes and found that Huo Yunting's eyes were misty and he was wandering out of the world.

Well, I said it for nothing, and I didn't hear it at all.

"Brother Huo, Brother Huo?"

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"What do you think? With a face of gains and losses, we don't lose money on this trip today. ”

Huo Yunting raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it a loss?" ”

If he didn't count his estimate of the two scripts, just looking at the purchase price of the shares, Huo Yunting felt that he was somewhat at a loss.

The reason why Happy Twist's shares can be sold so high is that the "Earl of Oolong Mountain" a few months ago was an instant hit.

After the fire of "Earl of Oolong Mountain" in the Beiping Geological Auditorium, Happy Twist struck while the iron was hot, and there were also a few sessions in Tianjin and the International Village, and the response was not bad.

If you sign this investment contract before the release of "The Earl of Oolong Mountain", you can push the price down by one or two million, to say the least.

After Huo Yunting finished speaking, Zhang Debang shook his head, "Brother Huo, we can't count it like this." At that time in 08, as soon as Happy Twist got a little better, we abducted Shen Teng, the pillar of the family. ”

"Think about it, if Shen Teng is allowed to vigorously develop in Happy Twist, it will not be the price of 8.5 million yuan for us to negotiate a contract with Happy Twist today. That's eight figures, to say the least. ”

Huo Yunting thought about it carefully, this is not fucking right, if he hadn't dug Shen Tengna, he wouldn't have been able to go to see "The Earl of Oolong Mountain" later, and Yan Fei wouldn't have come to him.

"All in all." Huo Yunting rubbed his face, "I think it's still a loss." ”

A few days later, Zhang Debang went to Happy Twist again, and took the lawyer and other people to sign the contract.

After that, the two scripts were sent to Liu Yifei's desk.

Of course, the person sitting in the office was Huo Yunting.

"Donkey Gets Water" is a complete drama script, and the two original screenwriters of the movie script are being changed. As for "Charlotte's Troubles", Yan Fei is also hurrying to improve the ending, and then change it to a movie script.

In the end, I still invested in Happy Twist.

Seeing that there were only two scripts in his hand, he returned to Yunting and sighed, hoping that he was not mistaken, and these two films could return to blood.

On February 18, "Let the Bullets Fly" was released, which can be regarded as a complete end to its glorious journey.

The final box office, 723 million.

It can be said that it exceeded everyone's expectations.

This film gave Boss Yang a long face, and he was happy to give Jiang Wen a big red envelope. But Jiang Wen didn't want to live or die, and in the end he wrapped another eight million red envelopes and sent them to Boss Yang.

This matter was only found out when he went out for a morning run in the morning and met Ge Youyou fishing by the lake, and the two of them chatted about it.

Huo Yunting smacked his tongue when he heard it, if he was at the scene, he would definitely say a word to the two of them, don't give it to me.

Although "Let the Bullets Fly" has been released, the audience's discussion of the film is still endless.

excavate every line and expression in the film, and enjoy it.

Even the rivalry between Huo Yunting, Ge You and Zhou Yunfa, the two veteran actors, was taken out by the audience and kept talking.

Especially the part of the Hongmen banquet at the three-person wine table, netizens who watched it were addicted, and it was not an exaggeration to say that this scene was selected as the textbook of Beiying.

The three actors are racing together, who else can get together after Jiang Wen?

Especially Huo Yunting, don't look at him as young, but his acting skills are already close to several old actors.

Many media have begun to predict how many actors Huo Yunting can win with the film "Let the Bullets Fly".

It's just that although netizens are discussing lively, Huo Yunting doesn't care about it.

After filming Coca-Cola's endorsement advertisement, he began to book a hotel in a hurry and make a guest invitation list.

If you talk about relatives, Huo Yunting can count them on half a hand, but when it comes to friends, it's too much.

He dropped out of school early, and his former classmates had long lost contact, and later Beipiao was basically alone because of his illness. Nine out of ten of his friends are figures in the entertainment industry.

How to arrange the tables of the characters at this table has become a big problem.

Huo Yunting called one by one to ask, and when he heard that he was going to get married, his tone was quite like watching his daughter-in-law become a mother-in-law.

"Chubby, do you miss me? How is everything? Will I get married on April 15th? ”

"Lao Guo, I got married in April, can I find time?"

"Director Li ......"

He called one by one to ask, and basically came.

But Wang Jiawei is the only one, his phone is dead and alive. Later, I changed Liu Yifei's phone to call, and then I got through.

"Hello? I haven't seen you for a long time, Yifei, is there something wrong? ”

"I said Lao Wang, you won't answer my call, and you will answer my wife's call, what do you mean?"

"Damn, don't slander me, I'm just targeting you personally, okay?"

"You're so fucking arrogant about me?"

Listening to Huo Yunting's voice, Wang Jiawei's forehead began to jump, "Okay, okay, hurry up and say something, if you urge me to film again, I can only tell you that the filming will be finished this year." ”

"Heh, double happiness is coming." Huo Yunting smiled, "I called you to ask if you were free to attend my wedding in April." ”

Wang Jiawei's face changed, broken, and his promise was too early.

But in the end, he agreed, and he still had to go to Master Huo's wedding.

The two families were planning the wedding in full swing, but Jiang Wen suddenly visited.

"Brother Huo, you have to go with your brother at the end of March, don't worry, don't delay your wedding."

Huo Yunting's heart jumped, "Which award is it this time?" ”

"The 5th Asian Film Awards."
