Chapter 1066 The film master wants to invest

Although Wu Cheng was not very interested in visiting these filmmakers, he had to show some patience to receive them so that each other's face would not be too ugly.

However, for Zhong Chuhong, these people were a little annoying.

Before coming, Wu Cheng talked to them about the Tangquan culture on the island, and talked about the past events that came here with Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia.

Think about it, that was a few years ago.

At that time, his relationship with them was not yet deeper. At that time, Deng Lijun started a singing song on the island of Japan. He came to praise her just to deepen the relationship between them. Obviously, that time, he ran the right way!

Now when talking about these things again, it seems to be like yesterday.

But Deng Lijun has now given birth to a daughter and a son for him, and Lin Qingxia has also given birth to a daughter for him. Seeing that the second little life in her womb is about to be born.

I have to say that time really passes quickly!

When they mentioned these things to Zhong Chuhong and the others, they wanted him to take them to experience them too. As for whether it was jealous or for some other reason, it was unknown.

In short, at this time, Zhong Chuhong felt a little unhappy with those movie masters of Ridao. He was muttering and whispering in Xiangjiang dialect.

Of course, she avoided them when she scolded.

Because they were sitting and chatting in the lobby of the suite, there was a woman who was teaching tea for them next to them. Chung Chuhong and Lan Jieying were "relaxed" in the bedroom.

Listening to Zhong Chuhong lying there, muttering the words in her mouth, Lan Jieying lying beside her chuckles in a low voice, she felt very interesting.

Although she was a little unhappy that she could not go out to take a hot spring with her brother immediately, she was not as stingy as Zhong Chuhong.

For her, even if she was unhappy, she would usually just pout and would not swear directly like Zhong Chuhong.

It’s not that she can’t swear words. When she first met Wu Cheng, she was almost beaten because she scolded the fat woman. If Wu Cheng hadn’t appeared at that time, she might have been beaten.

Later, after gradually contacting Wu Cheng, she knew that Wu Cheng didn't want girls to scold people, so she gradually changed this bad habit.

So far, she still doesn't know how to curse people!

Looking at Lan Jieying's smiling face, Zhong Chuhong glared at her and reached out to pat her buttocks hard. She couldn't help but cover her buttocks and exclaimed in surprise.

At this time, the communication outside had ended. The masters stood up and said goodbye, making an appointment to find some time to chat. In fact, Wu Chengzhen didn't want to continue communicating with them anymore.

I feel that there is nothing to say, maybe it is because these directors are old and have a certain generation gap! As the saying goes, different ways, don’t make plans!

However, after Master Hei Zeming got up and waited for the people to leave, he sat down again.

Seeing this situation, Wu Cheng was a little surprised.

Hei Zeming smiled slightly and said, "That's right. I have been preparing to bring Shakespeare's famous book "King Lear" to the screen. I wonder if Mr. Wu is interested in participating in the investment?"

As mentioned before, Wu Cheng didn't know much about this movie master's movies, and he rarely paid attention to his movies in his previous life, let alone watched them.

He only knows one name for this movie master.

Therefore, he had no idea which movie "King Lear" that Hei Zeming wanted to adapt, and he didn't know whether it would be profitable or loss to the movie.

Hei Zeming needs to find investment when making movies, and it doesn’t take any surprises. Because when he was filming "Shadow Warrior" in the 1980s, he looked for Lucas and Coppola.

Wu Cheng also knew about this.

Therefore, even though Hei Zeming is a movie master, no one is willing to invest when he wants to make a movie.

Why?

Because the reason why a master is a master is that the films he shoots have a relatively high artistic component. Often, movies with higher artistic components do not make that much achievements in the box office. What is the most important thing for investors?

Why is the old man Kcorian willing to buy scripts from Wu Cheng at a high price? Why is Hollywood willing to spend millions of dollars to ask him to direct a movie?

There is only one reason: the movies he made can make money!

Looking at the movies he made and the scripts he wrote, no one has ever lost money. Even some Hong Kong movies can make a lot of money.

Not to mention the movies that have been sold in recent years.

If you want to ask, in the global film industry, which director has the highest commercial value, countless people will definitely think of Wu Cheng, not Spielberg at the first time.

Although Spielberg is now the holder of the world's movie box office record, the script of "Alien et" he filmed was written by Wu Cheng.

Therefore, they are both masters, but in the eyes of those investors, their weight and status are still different. Perhaps Wu Cheng is inferior to those masters in terms of the artistic nature of the movie, but in terms of money-making ability, those masters are difficult to achieve.

Anyone who is an investor knows whose movie you should invest in!

It’s just a pity that Wu Cheng’s movies have always been invested in by his own company, and other investors have never had a chance to participate.

Therefore, it is not a strange thing that Hei Zeming will lack shooting funds.

So Wu Cheng asked him how much he was going to invest in this drama?

Hei Zeming said that it is estimated to cost 2 billion yen.

During this period, the Japanese yen vs. US dollars was about one to two hundred! That is, one US dollar was equivalent to about two hundred yen. Now, one US dollar vs. Hong Kong dollars is more than seven yuan.

In other words, 2 billion yen is about 150 million Hong Kong dollars.

It is conceivable how much investment this movie is!

Although this investment is actually very ordinary in Hollywood, it is only 20 million US dollars. However, this investment is really not small in Southeast Asia.

Even the most profitable "Black Man" filmed by Wu Cheng is only more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars in filming. Of course, this is the result of his salary after he lowered the price.

Otherwise, with his millions of dollars in directorial pay, the investment in this movie would not be enough for his personal pay!

However, the result of the movie pay is naturally the share of the film.

Many big Hollywood actors or big-name directors have the right to participate in box office division. Just like when Hepburn returned to the world and took on filming movies, what she adopted was a box office division agreement. The more successful the film, the more "payments" she could get.

However, one thing that makes people feel more at ease is that Hei Zeming is different from many directors in Xiangjiang. His directorial reputation is quite popular internationally.

That is, there is no problem with his film being released in North America.

Therefore, if the film can be released in North America with such an investment, there should be no problem in recovering the cost.

Therefore, he accepted this proposal without much hesitation.

In fact, I still want to drive this old man away.

As for how much investment it is, it is not easy to decide. You need to discuss it with several other investors before making a decision. And Wu Cheng himself does not need to participate in this kind of thing.

Donglong International also has an office on Ridao.

After the old man left, Wu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and stood up and walked into the bedroom.

At this time, in the bedroom, Lan Jieying was riding under Zhong Chuhong and itched. She twisted her body and begged for mercy with a smile. Her voice was lowered, as if she didn't want to, or was worried about being heard by people outside the hall.

But obviously, they seemed to have ignored that the sound insulation effect here is still good.

Outside, I couldn't hear any movement inside.

Seeing Wu Cheng pushing the door and entering, Lan Jieying on the bed raised her head, and Zhong Chuhong, who was riding on her, turned his head back, and both of them looked at him.

Seeing this scene, Wu Cheng's lips twitched slightly.

Then, he coughed lightly and said, "You can go out for a meal, let's go! After dinner, go out for a walk, and then go and enjoy the soup spring culture here..."

After hearing this, the two ended the "fight", then got up and tidy up their messy clothes and hair, and treated him as air. The bold Zhong Chuhong even changed his clothes directly in front of him, not even caring about revealing his trousers in front of him.

In comparison, Lan Jieying's face is not as thick as hers.

She turned to look at him, "Brother Cheng, can you wait for us outside first?"

Wu Cheng smiled, cut Zhong Chuhong hard, then turned around and went out, and closed the bedroom door. Then, the sound inside was isolated.

Soon, the two of them changed their clothes and walked out. Zhong Chuhong was wearing casual clothes, a wide T-shirt and blue denim, a pair of Gaobang shoes squatting under her feet, and a sun hat on her head. She was dressed in a young and rebellious manner. No one could imagine that she would be in the movie with a wild and charming sexy look, which was too contrasting to her current appearance.

As for Lan Jieying, she still dressed in a pure style, a very simple white dress. And he is also the same as usual suit and ties, a sunny teenager dress, with a denim and T-shirt. Although the clothes are simple, they can match them with the two girls next to her.

The two followed him well and did not make any other emotions.

They actually knew that this promotional itinerary was actually quite rushing, because in a dozen days, he would have to go back to Xiangjiang again. In the other side of Xiangjiang, two expectant mothers were waiting for him!

The movie "Legend of the Night" will be released globally in August, with only more than a month left to promote it. In addition to going to Southeast Asia, you have to continue to go to Europe and the United States in July, especially North America.

This trip was a bit rushed.

And in such a hurry, they still have to take time to accompany them, so they naturally know that it is not easy. So when they go out to play, Zhong Chuhong rarely messes with monsters.
