Entertainment 1995: Meeting my brother by chance at the beginning

Brother Zhang Guorong's Turtle Mountain mansion.

Gu Tian and Xing Ye met each other for the first time.

There is no business bragging, just a polite but awkward nod and smile.

"Thank you for publicly supporting my film at this time."

Master Xing is sincerely grateful to Gu Tian. A few words cannot express his inner gratitude.

"Support idols!

Gu Tian smiled and said,"I am obligated!""

"We live in a world of secular people and cannot be regarded as experts outside the world.

Gu Tianyi pointed out:"When you live in the countryside and follow the locals, your life will be more colorful!""

Master Xing pondered.

Gu Tian took a sip of red wine and said:"The two big stories about Journey to the West and Night of Resurrection are unacceptable to secular people. The reason is actually not that complicated."

"tell me the story."

Brother Zhang Guorong didn't wait for Master Xing to speak, and took the initiative to speak.

"What is the purpose of moviegoers spending money to go to the cinema? Do you want to spend money to be abused or do you want to laugh heartlessly?"

Gu Tian asked back

"This question is difficult to answer"

"There are many themes in movies, starting from kung fu movies, to weird, zombie movies, literary movies, etc. Mr.

Xing replied:"Movie-goers will choose movies based on their own preferences. This is why the box office of movies is high or low.""

"Before last year, Mr. Xing was a box-office elixir. As long as the movie you starred in had a box office of less than 20 million.

Gu Tian joked:"But what about this year?" The movie you starred in and invested in changed its style. Were you wrong?

All I can say is that benevolence is in the eye of the beholder and wisdom is in the eye of the wise.

If a movie cannot be accepted by the public, the box office will not be high, and word-of-mouth following it is just a hype by those in the media. It needs gimmicks to attract attention, increase ratings, and increase newspaper sales. Gu

Tian continued:"We can't ignore the reality. One movie and two movies failed. Coupled with the release of Soul Resurrection Night, it is still a hit at the box office and word of mouth."

Mr. Xing, it should be said that good movies also require knowledgeable moviegoers.

I suggest you collaborate again with director Wang Jing. Your collaborations have been box office miracles in the past.

Although director Wang Jing is called a bad movie director and a shitty director, it cannot be denied that he knows best what the audience wants to see.

If Mr. Xing is willing to cooperate with director Wang Jing and needs investment, just ask, but I dare not say anything more. I can come up with an investment of 50 to 60 million at any time."

Mr. Xing's eyes lit up. The movies he invested in and starred in continued to collapse. At this time, although he will not go bankrupt, he still needs the support of investors.

His close friend is actually willing to invest and support him?

Surprise!

Xing I am happy from the bottom of my heart!

There are many more smiles on my face, and the haze has long disappeared.

My brother Zhang Guorong, who is sitting next to him, feels bad.

Gu Tian, ​​this kid, is so brave.

He mentioned in his mouth Of the 50-60 million investment, is that his money?

No!

Thirty million of the 60 million belongs to Yang Shoucheng, chairman of Yinghuang Group, and the other 30 million belongs to the Chen family, a wealthy family in Hong Kong.

As expected.

The money has arrived Xiangjiang Qunxing Investment Company became Gu Tian's own money.

He really dared to spend it! He didn't frown at all.

Hesitation?

It seems that these two words are not in Gu Tian's dictionary

"To be honest, Director Liu Zhenwei and I collaborated on Westward Journey and Return of the Soul, trying to transform.

The total investment exceeded 50 million, and the investment for three movies was 50 million. But in the end, not only did it not make any money, but the box office and reputation both failed.

Perhaps as you said, today's moviegoers don't really like the movies I made in my transition.

I will consider your proposal and cooperate with Director Wang Jing again."

Gu Tian nodded slightly.

"I'm going back."

The purpose of Mr. Xing's visit to his brother Zhang Guorong's home this time has been achieved. Not only did he meet his close friend Gu Tian, ​​but he also obtained the other party's commitment to invest.

He wanted to go home and be alone and think about it.

After Mr. Xing left, his brother Zhang Guorong looked at Gu Tian who seemed to be nothing, and reminded him:"Are you sure you want to invest in Ah Xing's next movie? That 60 million cannot be spent carelessly.

You have to think clearly, if you make money from investing, the world will be peaceful, but if you lose money, how will you explain it to the two big guys? Gu

Tian smiled slightly and said:"Master Xing and Liu Zhenwei collaborated as directors. The two of them are really creative. There is no need to doubt the quality of the film, but the problem is that the imagination is not accepted by the public."

Moviegoers are more willing to laugh heartlessly, walk into the cinema happily, and leave happily.

What will the public think after the news spreads that Xingye and director Wang Jing are collaborating again? It will definitely be full of expectations.

After all, their previous collaborations were very successful."

Brother Zhang Guorong nodded and said sincerely:"Yes, the movie co-produced by Ah Xing and director Wang Jing not only has a high box office but also has a good reputation.

But the question is, will Ah Xing be willing to cooperate with director Wang Jing again?

He has not collaborated with the other party in three movies this year, and it is obvious that he wants to try to transform."

"Star Master also needs to regain his blood and make money without being embarrassed. Gu Tian smiled and said:"

The reason why I suggested Master Xing to cooperate with Director Wang Jing is to repay Director Wang Jing's favor."

Before, if the other party hadn't voluntarily given up on competing with me for the film adaptation of Young and Dangerous comics, I would have had to spend more money.

Once Mr. Xing figures it out and takes the initiative to contact Director Wang Jing, I, Gu Tian, ​​will no longer owe him any favors."

Brother Zhang Gurong smiled.

"Pretty boy, what a thief!"

"Come, drink."

Gu Tian raised his glass

"The wine I have is not enough for you and Afei."

Brother Zhang Guorong shook his head helplessly.

"You go to Afei. Buying red wine is her preference. I have never bought red wine. Gu

Tian spread his hands and said,"I don't care about the price of red wine, as long as you can drink it.""

For a moment, brother Zhang Guorong was speechless.

There was really nothing that could be done about this kid Gu Tian.

In the evening,

Gu Tianlai had dinner at his brother Zhang Guorong's house.

Before dinner was finished, Gu Tian received a call from director Wang Jing.

On the phone, director Wang Jing told Gu Tian that he was going to make a movie with Xing Ye

"Master Xing told me that you are willing to invest, are you serious?

Gu Tian replied:"Of course!""

"I just spit it out and tell you how much investment is needed? Director Wang

Jing:"Master Xing is willing to reduce the salary. I'll do the math. I'll invest 10 million first, and how about making up for the excess?"

Don’t worry, I’m the best in the industry at controlling investment costs, and I’ll hardly spend any more."

"Ten million? no problem!"

"I'm at my brother's house. If you're in a hurry, you can come over and sign the contract now. If you're not in a hurry, we'll sign the contract tomorrow and I'll transfer 10 million to you."

Gu Tian said

"Let’s meet and chat tomorrow! Director Wang Jing said with a smile:"

I first worked out the outline of the script."

"great, see you tomorrow."

Gu Tian and Director Wang Jing ended the call.

"Confirmed to invest?"

Brother Zhang Guorong asked.

Gu Tian nodded slightly.

"It’s only an investment of 10 million. Even if I lose money, it doesn’t matter to me."

"Star Master is my idol, and I, Gu Tian, ​​am willing to spend money like water to support my idol!"

Gu Tianxin vowed

"nerve!"

"Just think about it carefully.

Gu Tian looked at his brother Zhang Guorong and suggested,"Are you interested in investing together?" I, Gu Tian, ​​invested the 10 million yuan externally alone. After receiving the movie box office dividends privately, shall we share it equally?"

"Do you want me to invest with you? five million?"

Gu Tian nodded.

"Can."

Brother Zhang Guorong agreed.

He had two considerations.

First, if Star Master and director Wang Jing collaborate on a movie, it may not be a big hit at the box office, but who can guarantee it?

Now that Gu Tian has spoken, To participate in the investment, he only needs to spend five million, which he can get at any time.

Even if he loses all, it will not hurt him.

Secondly, the money in Gu Tian's hand is Xiangjiang The two big guys' money is not Gu Tian's money.

If he loses money on this investment, how will Gu Tian explain to the two big guys?

His brother Zhang Guorong is very optimistic about Gu Tian and is willing to help him take risks and protect him.

On the other side, after Director Wang Jing talked to Gu Tian on the phone, he called the boss of Xiangjiang, the boss of Yongsheng Films, Xiang Huaqiang.

"Boss, Gu Tian is willing to invest."

Director Wang Jing's tone was full of respect.

"How much does he invest?

Director Wang Jing replied:"The investment amount I told him was 10 million!""

"Well done.

Director Wang Jing probed:"Boss, why do you pay attention to that boy Gu Tian?" Do I need to be careful when I come into contact with him in the future?"

He wants to know the boss's attitude towards Gu Tian

"Just normal contact"

"Ah Jing, if you cooperate with Ah Xing this time, can you guarantee a box office hit?"

Director Wang Jing gave a wry smile.

How could he guarantee it?

However, when the boss asked, he could only answer bravely.

"able!"

"It will definitely sell well!"

"do not let me down!"

For a whileSilence,

Director Wang Jing heard the boss’s voice again

"Gu Tian established an investment company called Xiangjiang Qunxing Investment Company. Yang Shoucheng, chairman of the Eagle Emperor Group, and the Chen family each invested 30 million.

Think about it, isn't that young man Gu Tian very simple?"

Director Wang Jing was shocked.

Gu Tian, ​​how did he do it? He was able to get Yang Shoucheng, chairman of the Eagle Emperor Group, and the wealthy Chen family of Hong Kong to support him so much?

The two bosses trusted Gu Tian so much that they gave him 60 million Investing?

Director Wang Jing couldn't help but make up his own mind and determined that Gu Tian's background was so terrifying that he couldn't provoke him.
