Chapter 53: Life of the crew
Yanjing.
The home base of the Huang brothers.
"Mr. Chen has been doing well lately...... It's nothing, the main thing is to greet Mr. Chen...... Hahaha, I really can't hide it from Mr. Chen, in fact, it's not a big deal, it's about the new movie last time, and now the preliminary preparations have been heard, didn't you say that you were interested in the new movie last time, I want everyone to sit down and talk about it...... I haven't had time lately, so I'll talk when you're free. ”
"Boss Ma, I'm Lao Huang, I heard that Boss Ma was in Yanjing recently, why did you say hello to Yanjing, you have time to sit down and have a cup of tea together...... In this case, forget it if you don't have time. ”
"Old Hu...... The preparations for the new film have been completed, when will the funds from your side be available...... What, something has gone wrong with the company recently, and the capital turnover can't be realized? You're not going to cast a new movie? ”
Bang!
In the office, there was a sudden sound of things being broken.
Huang Zhongyi, who happened to appear outside the office, was almost startled by the movement inside.
In Huang Zhongyi's impression, the eldest brother rarely has such a big temper, but once he starts a fire, it makes people shudder.
After waiting outside the door for a while, it was estimated that Huang Zhongkun's anger had subsided a little, and then he pushed the door in.
"Big brother!"
As soon as Huang Zhongyi entered the office, he saw that Huang Zhongkun's face was about to become a little distorted.
"These bastards, all of them are the ones who see the wind and steer the rudder...... The investment that I said was good before is now playing Tai Chi with me. ”
Huang Zhongkun just glanced at Huang Zhongyi coldly, and cursed in a low voice to himself.
The new movies have been prepared and are ready to start filming soon, but the investment that was negotiated before has not been settled so far.
If the money is not in place, the film will not be filmed, but the equipment and venues have been rented, and they have to spend money to maintain them every day.
Looking at the money spent like flowing water every day, and the movie couldn't start filming normally, Huang Zhongkun felt that his heart was dripping blood.
Although the Huang brothers' capital is abundant, their stalls are also large, in fact, there are not many funds that can be mobilized, otherwise why would he call those investors.
"Hmph, it's all because there was such a big movement on Hong Kong Island over the weekend, which made those investors change their minds temporarily."
After spending a billion dollars on the weekend to build a live-action studio, which was wildly hyped up by Hong Kong Island, almost the entire Chinese film industry now knows about it.
A billion has already been spent on a live studio alone, and it is conceivable that more money will continue to be invested in it in the following weekends.
With such a big project, do you want to get a piece of the pie?
Small investors want to drink some soup on the weekend, and although the big investors don't look down on those corners, don't forget that there is also a film and television city project in their hands on the weekend.
If you can get a piece of cake on the project of the film and television city, it is much more profitable than investing in making movies, and as long as the film and television city is not taken back, it can also bring continuous income to investors in the future.
This is also why the investors who had negotiated with Huang Zhongkun before changed their tunes overnight, because they didn't want to offend the weekend, and now who doesn't know about the weekend and the Huang brothers' holiday?
When Huang Zhongkun thought of this, he regretted it very much, if he had won the project of the film and television city, why would the situation have become like this?
"Forget it, I don't think I can count on those people, and we still have to figure out how to fund the matter ourselves."
Huang Zhongkun rubbed his forehead, where to find money is still a problem, I knew that I wouldn't have spread the stall so big.
The steps are too big, and it's really easy to pull the eggs.
"Alas, that's all it can be!" Huang Zhongyi nodded, since those old foxes have already stood in line, they will definitely not change their minds easily, and the funds for the new movie can only be found from other places.
"Big brother, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, I don't think you should sulk here, I'll find a place to help you lower the fire!"
Although he is currently in some trouble with the new movie, Huang Zhongyi is not too frustrated.
Their Huang brothers, who were able to come out of the Yanjing compound and lay down such a big country in the film and television industry, also jumped out of the sea of fire in the sword mountain.
Now this little difficulty is not enough to bring them down.
After suffering here on the weekend, they will find their way back sooner or later.
"Let's go, I heard that you and Li Gongzi, who came over from Hong Kong Island, have opened a new club, so I just went over to take a look."
Huang Zhongkun touched the fire bubbles on his lips and nodded involuntarily.
Just when the Huang brothers were on fire in the clubhouse, they had already gotten off the plane from the airport over the weekend.
This time, along with the weekend, there is also the team from Hong Kong Island Productions.
As soon as they got out of the airport, Yang Sisi and Guo Fan were already waiting, and the hotel vehicles had already been arranged for the Hong Kong Island production team.
I received such a grand reception on Hong Kong Island over the weekend, and I must not be stingy on my side.
After arranging people from Hong Kong Island, he and Yang Sisi got into Guo Fan's car together on the weekend.
After getting in the car, the three of them began to discuss.
"I didn't expect you to have such a big influence on Hong Kong Island, and almost half of the media on Hong Kong Island are mentioning this matter this time."
Yang Sisi didn't wait for the car to start, and began to talk excitedly about the weekend.
The vigorous momentum of the Hong Kong Island media has made Yanjing's Yang Sisi's work a lot easier, and some actors who were difficult to invite before also began to relax after seeing the news on Hong Kong Island, saving Yang Sisi's work a lot of trouble.
"Hehe, in fact, it doesn't have much to do with me, the reason why the media on Hong Kong Island are willing to build up so much momentum is not because Hong Kong Island movies are now in decline, and the mainland market is huge, and they also want to take this opportunity to go north."
He smiled on the weekend and calmly explained to Yang Sisi.
Hong Kong Island films were once glorious, and they also created a large number of practitioners engaged in the film and television industry, but with the decline of Hong Kong Island films, these practitioners are also facing the embarrassment of losing their jobs.
On the side of the Hong Kong Island film and television circle, he began to plan to go north to pan for gold very early, but he has not made much progress, this time he just saw an opportunity, so he helped build momentum for the weekend.
But over the weekend, I don't think Hong Kong Island can grab a position in the mainland market, because the strength is there.
After all, Hong Kong Island is a small land, and in terms of the abundance of funds, it cannot be compared with the capital of the mainland, and small-budget film production may have advantages, but in terms of large-scale production, Hong Kong Island is dwarfed.
However, he will not prevent people from the Hong Kong Island film and television industry from coming in, anyway, it will be them who will hit the wall at that time. (End of chapter)
