Chapter 262: Wang Tianming's Worries/Since the risk is high, let's add money!
Beijing City, Ole Film Investment Building.
now
After Wang Taiming received the call, his expression became a little complicated.
Mixed up to his level.
Naturally, he knows the behind-the-scenes circles in the Chinese entertainment industry.
There are some things that he can guess without having to say them explicitly.
The so-called no wind and no waves.
This year, Su Mu was in the limelight, and finally cut off Han Junxi's Best Actor Award.
Naturally, it will be targeted by 'Nas'.
It may even be seen as a competitor in the future.
I have to say that Su Mu and Han Junxi are indeed somewhat similar.
idols are from top classes, but their talents are not lost to professional classes, and their popularity and movie box office results are in the top ten, so it is difficult not to compare them together.
But that's the way the entertainment industry is.
It is as small as actors competing for resources with each other, fighting openly and secretly.
It is big enough to compete in the box office market and the capital game.
It's okay when you're not on the same track, but if you find that there is competition, you have to be careful, and even use some extraordinary means.
Just like the overseas movies that Wang Taiming bought by himself, he was swept away by Su Mu's "Xin Qiji" at that time, and he also took some capital measures.
It's just that it didn't work anymore, so I gave up.
Now if you can't beat it, you can join, but it creates higher returns.
I'm really a genius CEO.
Wang Taiming thought about it, and the corners of his mouth curled.
But soon back to today.
Zhai Hong asked himself about Su Mu's information, he could roughly understand it, but in fact, the other party just wanted to see Ole's attitude towards Su Mu.
In order not to really follow Su Mu in the future, it is good to know the depth and be prepared.
Nas, an investment company, has a very large background, and the various subsidiaries and holders are intertwined, and a small half of the entertainment industry is more or less related to them.
So it's not difficult for them to pull out a top stream.
But on the other hand, it is equivalent to saying that they want to suppress a top stream, which is also very simple.
For example, relying on means to suppress the box office, and then cutting off the other party's resources.
You can also wait for the other party to make a mistake, and then find the right time to use the water army to create greater public opinion, and so on.
And Su Mu's current special popularity is definitely not suitable for creating public opinion.
But when this period of time passes, it happens that next year's second part of his wandering earth seems to be a live target.
Thought of this level.
Wang Taiming couldn't help but be a little worried, after all, Langqiu 2 and their outlets also had investments.
On the phone, he didn't say much to Zhai Hong.
just told him that Ole had cooperated with Su Mu, and Su Mu's background was very deep.
As for how deep, let him guess for himself.
Hung up.
Wang Taiming found Su Mu's WeChat, organized the language, and sent him a string of texts.
But I haven't waited for Su Mu's reply yet.
The company received a message from the senior shareholders and was ready to hold a meeting.
No need to guess.
At this time, at the emergency meeting, eighty percent also heard some rumors, so they were worried that the investment would be wasted.
β¦
β¦
Su Mu had already won the grand prize and followed Qian Jida and the others back to his hotel.
Should have come back earlier.
But after all, he won the actor award, so he still accepted a lot of interviews after the award ceremony.
Although they are all scenes, he definitely can't miss the opportunity to brush up on his proficiency, basically he doesn't refuse to come, and it takes more than half an hour to say it.
In the living room,
Qian Jida, Xiao Tangerine and others have not yet recovered from the excitement.
You know, when they only had four people to start the studio, they didn't think they could get to where they are today.
They really just think that if Su Mu can receive a few popular idol dramas every year, then even if it is a high incense, even if it can't go high, at least the annual income should not be too bad.
But look at the present.
Today's studios are completely out of size.
Su Mu can also get the Chinese actor, which can basically be said to have a firm foothold in the film and television industry.
The little orange took a picture of the mobile phone frantically: "Boss, boss! You are simply amazing, when I saw you win the award, I suddenly felt that my younger brothers were not fragrant, and talented artists were more handsome. β
Qian Jida thought deeply on the side: "Don't say it, the little orange is right, relying on the appearance of the real estate will not last long, there will be a cycle of several years and then go downhill, but if you want to be the top all the time, then you have to be real, this is definitely the only right way." β
Su Mu listened to the words of the two of them, and he was hehe.
I believe you two ghosts.
I didn't know who it was at the beginning, and I spent money on my own personality, but now it has changed.
Su Mu: "The two of you are almost there, do you have such a high consciousness?" Isn't it because I can raise my salary a little more after winning the actor? β
"Ahem, who? Not me. β
"I don't either, I'm seriously happy."
The two began to play dumb.
For the cheekiness of these two people, Su Mu also gave up completely.
If you want to talk about a few of them real hob meat, it belongs to these 'mothers'.
There was a fuss for a while.
Qian Jida continued: "Su Mu, let's laugh at this, but to be honest, I actually have some concerns about what Mr. Ai Yanran said.
This Han Junxi is not a good person, don't look at the many people in the circle who have a good opinion of him, but most of them are complimented because of the capital company behind him.
I've been in this industry for so many years, and I've heard some news more or less, when Han Junxi debuted, there were actually many very good artists at the same time as him, but in the end, none of them were spared, and almost all of them were hidden.
And some of the competitors he met after his debut have also been targeted, although on the surface in the eyes of the public, he is a very good person, but we insiders can still see it.
This time you won the actor, I always feel that Han Junxi may have some opinions about us. β
Su Mu listened to Qian Jida's words.
Still nagging as always.
However, it is also necessary to be cautious, after all, you must not have the intention of harming others, and you must not have the heart of guarding against others.
This circle has been mixed for a long time, and there is no good silver.
Besides, I will start filming The Wandering Earth II next year.
Bite.
Su Mu was thinking about it when his phone suddenly rang.
He looked down and saw that it was from Wang Taiming's side;
[Wang Taiming: Su Mu, congratulations on winning the actor, I didn't want to bother, but I still have to tell you something.
Just now, the president of Nas' in Huaxia called me and asked me about some things, I didn't say much, but it seems that they are very concerned about you.
In addition, Han Junxi, who was nominated with you, is his owner Nas, so there are some things that I don't say, you should understand, if nothing else, I'll tell you. ]
Su Mu looked at Wang Taiming's WeChat and smiled in his heart.
Should I say it or not, Wang Taiming can handle it, at least send a WeChat message.
I thought about it.
He edited one and sent it back to him.
β¦

At this time, it was inside the building of Ole.
Wang Taiming is in a meeting.
A few shareholders were present, but those who did not come were directly on the spot.
Everyone began to discuss the investment project for nearly a year.
And as I talked, I finally talked about next year's science fiction movie by Su Mu.
"We outlets have always been unique in the industry, no matter what the follow-up is, it is better to develop steadily."
"That's right, to be reasonable, the return on investment of Su Mu's film next year shouldn't be too small, but I heard some rumors, it seems that Nas has some opinions on Su Mu, Su Mu just won the actor at today's awards ceremony, originally this award may have been planned by them to operate for Han Junxi to help him lay the foundation for expanding overseas markets in the future, but he was cut off by Su Mu."
"If they target the box office of Langqiu next year, it is likely to affect our rate of return, although Ole has a theater chain, but even if Huayi is added, our two major theater chains may not be able to raise the box office much higher."
"Wanmeng, Jiahe, Jingsheng Oriental, these cinema chains all have Nas's holdings."
At this time at the meeting.
Many shareholders have expressed their opinions.
And their opinions, in fact, are also quite pessimistic.
After all, all of you here are also people in the capital.
So they have a better understanding of how far capital can go.
On the scale of Nas, if you want to manipulate the box office of a movie, at least in Huaxia, no one will do it better than them.
They have invested for so many years, and the business landscape is already very mature.
If you really have the intention to target, even if it is at the level of Ole, it may not be able to have any good effect.
At the moment, listen to the board.
Wang Taiming frowned slightly.
From his professional point of view, once there is a risk in the investment, it is very likely that the investment ceiling will be reduced, or the investment will be withdrawn directly to avoid the risk.
After all, capital is profit-seeking, and since the risk is greater, and it may even be impossible to get back the capital, then they will not have any hesitation.
But Wang Taiming himself, to tell the truth, he still believes in Su Mu.
Although I can't come up with any too valid reasons.
But I don't know why, but I habitually feel that if it is Su Mu, there shouldn't be any big problem.
After all, they wanted to target him at the beginning, but they didn't succeed.
Just as I was thinking about it, my phone rang suddenly.
Then he looked down and saw that it was Su Mu's WeChat reply.
Wang Taiming was stunned for a moment, and then clicked on Su Mu's WeChat reply.
[Su Mu replied: Ouch, thank you Mr. Wang for your concern, thank you, thank you, but to be honest, I only now know that it is said that there are so many actors, but there is no way, this kind of thing is encountered, right?]
I can understand that in this case, there will be a great risk that the box office of our follow-up 'The Wandering Earth 2' will not be successful, and it cannot be ruled out that this Nas Investment Group will do something.
So I thought about it, it's better to be like this, why don't you guys think about it, and vote a little more for me?
You see, as the old saying goes, the greater the risk, the greater the return, this is risky, you believe me, then you add money! Additional Investment! I'll earn you a vote! ]
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Looking at Su Mu's reply, Wang Taiming almost squirted out a mouthful of tea.
Nima!
A bunch of us are worried about what the box office of your movie will pull later.
As a result, this man is good, and let us add money?
Are you fooling us, or are you stupid yourself?
Wang Taiming was stunned for a while.
It was just that suddenly he remembered something.
It seems that someone in the 'quotation group' said that once Su Mu wants to add money, it must be a big job.
And with his understanding of Su Mu's past, after he increases his salary, the final box office results of the movie will be very strong.
So what does Su Mu want to do with this additional investment?
Is there a solution? Or rather, this person really has a super hard backstage and doesn't care about Nas at all.
Glancing up at the people in the room.
Wang Taiming typed a few words on his mobile phone.
[Wang Taiming: How much?] ]
[Su Mu replied: (δΉδΉ) Not much, not much, I think, since The Wandering Earth 2 is going to be filmed, it is natural to shoot the highest level of our current film industry in China, so I think about it, each of you will have another 50 million, it should be enough. ]
!
Seeing Su Mu say this, Wang Taiming almost didn't crush the phone.
And 50 million?
Originally, the investment in this film was already more than one billion, so it was basically burned out during the preparation period?
Before, these investors in their group each took out 100 million, and Su Mu himself also took 500 million.
So it may continue to burn in the future.
This is calculated, Ole, Huayi, plus the three giants of video, one person will get another 50 million, that is, 250 million, and Su Mu himself will have to add another 50%.
A movie costs 1.5 billion to make?
If this cost is really bad at the box office by then, how can you get it back?
[Wang Taiming: No, are you sure?] Domestic movies, in my opinion, there are only a few that can make a second sequel at the box office more than the first one, and I think it would be good if you could reach more than 30 in your second wave ball. ]
[Su Mu replied: Well, I expected it to be about the same.] ]
[Wang Taiming: Then what else do you add?] Reducing costs is the right way! ]
[Su Mu: No, I don't like to shrink back, and there are always more ways than difficulties, so I ask you if you take the money, Mr. Wang, if you don't believe it, let's play a bet, if I protect the capital, you don't take the income, only the principal, if I don't protect the capital, even if I lose, I will bear it with you. ]
ββ¦β¦β
[Wang Taiming: Get out, can you be serious, the ghost is betting on it, you kid must not be holding back any good fart, huh...... Are you sure this is 50 million for the last time? ]
[Sumu: I'll try to do it one last time.] ]
[Wang Taiming: ......]
[Su Mu: Oh, okay, the last time I added money, really, in fact, there is not much cost to consume, I just want to buy a building, I'm afraid that the money is not enough, so it's safer to do more.] ]
[Wang Taiming: ??? ]
[Su Mu: Just kidding, okay, then I'll take you as a promise.] ]
[Wang Taiming: Su Mu, don't forget what you said, I believe you this time! Try to fight for it! ]
[Su Mu: Mr. Wang is awesome!] ]
After chatting about WeChat.
Wang Taiming turned off his phone.
Then he took a deep breath and his heart began to beat faster.
Facing the many directors in front of him, he knew that the next step was an uphill battle.
Recalling that after he came back from studying abroad, he joined the Ole Group, and at that time, every investment was on the cusp of the storm, and his heart beat faster.
But now that I'm older, I don't have the passion I had before.
But since he got to know Su Mu, he felt as if he had regained that feeling of investing in a roller coaster.
Maybe that's life.
There is always someone with a light who illuminates you and tells you that he is going to buy a house and help him get more money...... Ahh What the heck.
Wang Taiming shook his head and stopped his messy thoughts.
He slammed to his feet and looked at the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to say a few words about the investment in the Wandering Earth...... Oh yes, Xiao Zhang, you go and order a takeout. β
Wang Taiming continued: "Everyone, let's analyze it carefully, in fact, this money should be invested more, but it is ......."

A few days later.
Su Mu took Qian Jida and others back to Yinhe City, and took advantage of the year to prepare for the media company...
