Hong Kong, Kai Ming Film and Television Office.

Chen Qiming sat at his desk, holding a preliminary investment budget table calculated by Qiming Film and Television's accountant.

The number of seven zeros on the report made Chen Qiming's head hurt.

Million.

According to calculations, the investment in the movie "Fengyun" will be about 20 million.

And that's just the bare minimum.

If you consume a little bit during filming, or if the actor's salary is a little more, this investment will go up.

Touching his chin, Chen Qiming fell into deep thought.

The movie "New Love" received a total of 38 million box office in Hong Kong.

The theater chain and the producer are divided equally, and Er Dongsheng's production company and Chen Qiming's Qiming Film and Television have 19 million left.

This money is divided between the two parties according to four or six, Qiming Film and Television six, and the final profit of Qiming Film and Television is 11.4 million.

Then, the copyright sales of Baodao, Japan and South Korea and other places, plus videotapes, VCDs and other shares.

Qiming Film and Television's final income in the movie "New Love" is about 20 million.

Now, as soon as the new movie is launched, the budget has reached this amount, which makes Chen Qiming very worried.

Why did Andy Lau become the desperate San Lang now.

It's not because I played too much with a film and television company before, which led to too much loss.

Now, Chen Qiming feels as if he is also following his old path.

This kind of one-shot deal, success, naturally needless to say, film and television companies can make a lot of money.

But failed......

As long as it fails, Qiming Film and Television will obviously go bankrupt.

Even, if it affects the whole body, it may also affect Chen Qiming's own assets.

So......

After carefully scanning the budget, Chen Qiming picked up the phone.

He felt that he still couldn't eat alone.

This kind of opportunity to make money, it is also okay to give points to others.

It's not that he's afraid that he won't be able to resist after failure, he doesn't want to eat alone at all, well, that's it.

Picking up the phone, Chen Qiming found Wu Dun's phone and dialed the boss of Changhong Film and Television.

"Amin, why did you remember to call me? Have you returned to Taipei? ”

Wu Dun on the other end of the phone was very surprised by Chen Qiming's call and couldn't help but ask.

Standing up, Chen Qiming pondered for a moment, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Wu, didn't you say last time that there was a chance to make money, I must pull you in!

I have a new project here, I think it can make money, I would like to ask if you are interested? ”

"Is it Fengyun?"

Wu Dun asked.

There has never been anything secret in the entertainment industry.

After Chen Qiming came to Hong Kong, he immediately made an appointment with Liu Weiqiang and others, and Qiming Film and Television also started quickly, looking like he was going to do a big job.

This kind of battle naturally can't hide from Wu Dun.

"Yes! Mr. Wu should have heard that I will personally lead this play, and in addition, I also invited Liming.

I think, with the two of us here, the box office of this movie is guaranteed, I don't know if you are interested? ”

Chen Qiming said.

He didn't say anything about the script or anything like that.

In these years, no matter how good the script is, it is not as realistic as the top lineup.

Let's talk about Jet Li and Jackie Chan or Stephen Chow.

For their films, the investors don't even need to read the script, nor do they need other guarantees, as long as they are actors, the investors will not hesitate to pay for them.

Chen Qiming didn't reach that level, though.

But with his appeal in the music world and the success of "New Love" last year, many investors still value him.

There are many people who throw money at his face.

Moreover, Chen Qiming also pulled the dawn.

Liming's appeal in the film industry may not be as good as that of Double Monday, and even Andy Lau and Leslie Cheung can't be compared.

But he still has some appeal.

At present, there are several echelons of actors in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The first echelon is undoubtedly Shuang Zhou Cheng and Jet Li.

Then the second echelon is Chen Qiming, Leslie Cheung and Andy Lau.

The third echelon below is the other three of the Four Heavenly Kings, as well as Tony Leung, Leung Jiahui and others.

Don't think it's not going to work in the third team.

On the contrary, it is difficult for most film companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan to invite these existents to make movies.

Especially the dawn.

This guy is very rich in his own family, and then he makes a lot of money in the music scene, so he rarely takes movies.

This also makes his appeal quite good.

Therefore, Chen Qiming believes that after knowing that the starring roles are him and Liming, Wu Dun will definitely not refuse.

And the fact is also the case, after listening to Chen Qiming's words, Wu Dun immediately showed interest.

"How much to invest?" He asked.

"This is a manga movie, which requires a lot of special effects, so the investment budget is ......"

Chen Qiming originally only planned to ask for an investment of 5 million.

But it suddenly occurred to me that since Dula had invested, why not minimize the risk and let Wu Dunlai share the risk a little more.

Therefore, he spoke directly: "The total investment is 20 million, and I already have 10 million here, if Mr. Wu is interested, the remaining 10 million can be given to you." ”

"Ten million? HKD or TWD? ”

Hearing this number, Wu Dun immediately asked.

"Hong Kong dollars!" Chen Qiming confirmed.

Hearing this, Wu Dun on the phone hesitated a little, "Ah Ming, you're playing a little big!" That's not a small amount of money! ”

HK$20 million.

This is definitely a big production in the investment in Hong Kong films in recent years.

At present, the whole of Hong Kong dares to play such a big movie between Zhou Cheng and Jet Li.

"No way, this is a manga movie, and it requires a lot of special effects."

Chen Qiming explained.

He doesn't be stupid and say, "You invest!" will earn".

Film and television investment is like gambling, it is risky.

Even if it is a box office hit like Double Monday, they dare not guarantee that the movie will make money.

Although Chen Qiming has information about the future, he knows that the final box office of this film is very high.

But he didn't dare to make any promises either.

After all, different actors, different directors and even editors will make different pictures in movies.

He was also afraid of failure.

It is also because of this that he chose to find Wu Dun to take a layer of insurance.

"I need to think about it, you know, although Changhong invests in a lot of movies every year, there are really few dramas with tens of millions of investments."

Wu Dun did not respond to Chen Qiming immediately, but said so.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming immediately expressed his understanding.

Don't look at Changhong, it seems that he has made a lot of movies in recent years.

But Woo Tun is very smart.

The dramas he filmed were often small productions, and the drama with the largest investment was last year's "New Meteor Butterfly Sword", which was only more than 17 million at that time.

Most of the funds are also used for actors' salaries.

As for Chen Qiming's "Whirlwind Kid" that Changhong just filmed.

There is also not much investment in this play.

The majority of the investment in this drama is Chen Qiming's salary.

Moreover, because of the relationship between Wu Dun and Fulong Company, Chen Qiming is a self-reduced salary in this play.

He only got paid four million.

And in this play, in addition to Chen Qiming's salary, the total salary of others is two or three million.

Coupled with various other expenses, the investment in this drama did not exceed 10 million.

Therefore, now in the face of Chen Qiming's investment of 10 million yuan, it is normal for Wu Dun to hesitate.
