God of Life

Wang Yan's character is typical "It doesn't matter if I take the initiative to suffer, but you can't take advantage of me."

An Xiaofang wants to participate in the project, yes, but she must show the sincerity of cooperation.

Wang Yan was very wary of hearing so much about the amateurs in the film and television industry.

So An Xiaofang's first proposal was declined by the young master.

Dasheng Media invested 20 million, accounting for 50% of the shares, and is responsible for the production and distribution of movies, as well as all publicity and distribution work, and will be deducted after settlement.

At first glance, it seemed fair, but Wang Yan always felt that something was wrong, so he kept calm.

As a layman, you have to listen more, watch more, think more, and don't be in a hurry.

Wang Yan never thought that he would be open and honest as soon as he came up, showing the best attitude, the greatest sincerity, and doing his best to help us with the project.

Who are you?

Where is the big one?

When you first enter an unfamiliar field, you have to fight for everything by yourself.

Money is not the most important thing, what is important is respect.

Only with respect can one be a big shot, not a coal second generation who is ridiculed at the same time.

...

After communicating for almost an hour, nothing came out. An Xiaofang's company still had something to do, so she took the initiative to leave and agreed to talk again in two days.

As soon as An Xiaofang withdrew, Li Yixu suddenly became active.

"Brother, other people's first test of the water is to enter the swimming pool with a swimming ring on. You are going directly into the sea, which is a bit scary..."

You just went to sea to shoot a film!

Wang Yan complained in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm and changed the subject suddenly.

"Brother Xu, do you know Mr. An very well?"

Li Yixu didn't hide anything, and confessed freely: "Li Li is my cousin."

Knowing that Wang Yan had no idea about the entertainment industry, he explained it in detail.

"My cousin owns two film and television companies,

Among them, Heli Chenguang is about to be listed on the New Third Board. It has produced and released "Moaning Age 1234", "Old Boy: Raptor Dip Sauce", "The Best of Us", and the key project next year is "Chewing Trail".

Hobbit 4 has a good relationship with my uncle, and is a shareholder of Chenguang, so let's hang out together.

When I was working on Moaning Age 12, my cousin and An Xiaofang had a great time working together.

As for now, my cousin is busy with IPO and working on "Chewing Trail", and has no energy to start new projects, so I introduce you to Sister An, who has a higher level of acquaintance. "

Wang Yan understood. It was a company bound to Hobbit and specializing in bad movies.

But still respect Li Yixu.

These real second generations always have various relationships hidden behind them, and if you look through them casually, you can match up with anything.

The upper class is a network, and there are always connections between nodes.

If you don't set foot inside, you can't even imagine what kind of celebrities people interact with in their daily life.

In contrast, his network is really weak.

But it doesn't matter, if you can't rely on a rich family, you can be a rich family yourself!

No matter how strong Li Yixu's background is, doesn't he still have to beg his brother to take him to play?

Wang Siming is stronger, Wang Ting Entertainment is encircling and suppressing pandas, do you think he has a headache!

...

"Is Guo Yuting really good-looking?"

"what?!"

Wang Yan's sudden thought jump stunned Li Yixu for a moment.

Finally reacting, he nodded dumbfoundingly.

"Good-looking is good-looking, but that girl's personality is a bit...well, it's hard to describe..."

"Ok?"

Wang Yan looked up in surprise.

Li Yixu has always been a very calm elder brother, and he rarely sees him hesitating when he is sore and tangled. It seems that there is a story?

"Of course I have nothing to do with her. I haven't had much contact with her. We have had dinner twice and met once at the celebration banquet."

Li Yixu shook his head, thought about it, and finally decided to remind Wang Yan.

"Brother, if you have any ideas, I can help you get acquainted. But, she is really cold to men, but not so cold to girls. It's not just a matter of personality... Do you know what I mean? ?”

Fuck!

what? !

Wang Yan understood, so he was taken aback.

The goddess of advertising in childhood, unexpectedly...

So exciting!

Li Yixu looked at the inexplicably excited Young Master Wang, and his heart skipped a beat.

"Brother, if you're really that interested, I'll ask my cousin to inquire carefully for you, okay? He's very familiar with those actors, especially the big secret."

Wow!

What did you reveal? !

Wang Yan stared at Li Yixu with wide-eyed eyes. Mr. Li was lively once in a while, nodded with a smirk, and spoke leisurely.

"Director Huo has a better friendship with actors! In the film and television industry, that's nothing.

If you stick to the bottom line, you will have a chance, and you will be able to live. At most, it will be difficult.

Look at it, there may not always be many opportunities, but you can always make good personal relationships with key people, and you may be able to come in handy at any critical moment.

Occasionally, everyone takes that as a way to relax, and no one will go out to say something loudly, or keep pestering her.

Everyone thinks this way and does this, and the atmosphere is indeed more open than other industries.

So, although that girl is very cold and difficult to attack, if Wang Shao thinks about it, there is no chance at all.

You are young, handsome, and temperamental, and you are normally very competitive. It is not difficult to get someone to match you. "

Wang Yan found it very interesting, chuckled twice, but suddenly turned the topic 180 degrees.

"Brother Xu, you are interested in film and television projects, why don't you vote for "Chewing Trail"?"

"what?!"

Li Yixu was taken aback again, completely confused by Wang Yan who didn't follow the rules.

Okay, you suddenly jumped to Guo Yuting, I was just about to make a sale, but you jumped to Hobbit...

That...brother is really not sure.

I myself hide away...

"Brother, your thinking can jump."

Li Yixu shook his head, sighed, and told the truth in the direction that Young Master Wang was interested in.

"The good projects my cousin can get are limited, and if I force my way in, it's tantamount to stealing money from others.

Do you think that breaking the era is to vote as you want?

I didn't even want to watch it when it was released, and when I confirmed the investment, I couldn't even grab the 5 million quota.

Don't mention me, Yida Films didn't even get an admission ticket.

Think about it, a series of movies, one or two co-productions, what is the concept? "

Indeed.

It is true that the viewing experience sucks, but it is also true that the project was very popular when it was established.

At that time, investors were waving their banknotes but they couldn't get in. The treatment that Brother Wu Jing received while filming Wolf Warriors was completely two extremes.

Now, of course, the witch doesn't have that kind of enthusiasm, but Wang Yan is not short of money!

"A newcomer's new work, with an investment of 40 million, Mr. An is about to take half of it when he opens his mouth, and his heart is not small."

First Young Master Wang sneered, and Li Yixu showed hesitation.

After a while, as if he had made some decision, Mr. Li took out some solid clothes again.

"Brother, you don't care about your strength, but for normal film and television projects, 20 million is definitely not a small amount of money, and RMB is not Zimbabwean.

The reason why Mr. An is so forthright and happy is because the production, distribution and marketing can completely earn back.

The more investment shares she gets, the easier it is for her to operate.

With one-stop production, distribution and marketing, coupled with a good relationship with theaters, she can play too many tricks. "

"Oh?"

Wang Yan was a little surprised by Li Yixu's frankness and raised his eyebrows.

"Appreciate further details."

"In general, the producer + distributor can get 39.42% of the total box office. If the producer and distributor are not the same company, they will make prepayment settlement and percentage settlement on the publicity and distribution expenses.

Suppose you register with Wang Ting Films to be a producer, but you can't do distribution, you have to hand it over to An Xiaofang's Dasheng Media, and then she will settle the settlement with you in that 39.42%.

The prerequisite for her investment of 20 million is that you pay for publicity and distribution. If you really spend 60 million for publicity, it means that she exchanged 20 million for a 50% interest in a large project with an investment of 100 million.

Her profit and loss points are different from yours.

If the total box office can reach 300 million, then the box office of your joint divisible account is 120 million. After deducting 60 million for publicity and distribution fees, the remaining 60 million will be divided equally between the two of you, and each person will get 30 million, which is a small profit of 10 million.

But you earned 10 million with 80 million, and she earned 10 million with 20 million.

Moreover, in the announcement, the total amount of 60 million is enough for her to directly earn back the cost of 20 million.

Among them, the reasonable profit on the bright side is 6 million, and there is room for at least 15 million for the part you don't understand.

So as long as the film can be released, she will not lose money, and every penny of the box office is a pure profit. "

Li Yixu explained clearly, and Wang Yan listened carefully.

In the end, the young master calmly asked: "Is there any way to prevent her from making publicity money?"

Li Yixu smiled wryly and spread his hands: "No. You can neither do distribution nor publicity. Those things are too professional. If you want the movie to be popular, you have to pay that money."

"Then let her earn."

"what?!"

Wang Yan's decisive attitude stunned Li Yixu again.

Brother, I just told you so much, is this your attitude?

Co-author, am I being a villain for nothing? !

Li Yixu really couldn't understand Wang Yan anymore. He asked a few questions back and forth, and they kept floating in mid-air, which made people very confused.

In fact, Young Master Wang's thinking was very simple and clear.

"She can only earn a fixed percentage of the 60 million publicity funds. It doesn't matter if it's 10% or 20%. For the rest, she can choose whatever she likes. However, don't even think about the proportion of the total box office."

"You want to bet on the box office hit and feed her with fixed income first?!"

Li Yixu suddenly realized, and then he was stunned for a moment.

"However, the box office needs to hit at least 500 million yuan to cover that part of the cost!"

In 2015, the film market was full of feathers.

"Speed ​​and Love 7" has a total domestic box office of 2.4 billion.

"The Tale of the Demon", 2.4 billion.

"Women's Federation 2", 1.45 billion.

"Charlotte Doesn't Worry", 1.44 billion.

"Heavenly Drenching", 740 million, a blockbuster co-produced by China and the United States, starring Jackie Chan, John, and Choi Siwon.

"The Age of Moaning 4: Moaning to the End of the Soul", 480 million.

"Diao Si Down the Mountain", 400 million, directed by Chen Kaixuan, starring Bao Bao, Zhi Ling, and Fu Cheng, the film was shot big and white...

Judging from the above examples, is it difficult for 500 million box office?

Thieves... ah bah bah! Thieves are difficult.

Li Yixu didn't know where Wang Yan's confidence came from!

In fact, Wang Yan wasn't sure that The Witch could blow up the box office to more than 500 million. If the filming wasn't good enough, or the publicity wasn't targeted enough, 100 million might be a big mark.

However, since the publicity and distribution money will definitely be earned by the issuing company, why not let the publicity and distribution company earn a fixed number?

At most, it is to lose all the investment, can't you afford it?

As soon as the system is upgraded, the breathing salary for 4 months will be 80 to 90 million, which is all thrown out, but it is a loss of strength!

Halfway through filming, it was found that the quality of the material was not good enough. The director could not change directors, and the actors could not change actors.

Brother is a fan of playing tickets, so don't talk about the Basic Law with him.

The publisher wants to share the total box office, okay, let me spend real money and make me crazy!

dare not?

Want to make a steady profit without losing money?

Then obediently take your fixed income and don't worry too much about it.

Ever since he decided to film the witch, Wang Yan was not prepared to get used to the messy rules and unspoken rules in the entertainment industry.

Making a good film that I think is cool is the first.

Holding up the little princess is the second.

It is the third place to make a sample for Wang Ting Entertainment's anchors.

The rest are out of consideration.

So, in fact, the sincerity that Wang Yan needed from An Xiaofang was not any unspoken rules, but bowing his head.

Just like Chu Hong, what is sleeping and spending money?

You have to give in and call me big brother!

...

Chu Hong didn't give in for the time being, neither did An Xiaofang, but Li Yixu did.

"Brother, intellectually, I think you're messing around, a little overblown.

But when I think of your crazy actions when you were engaged in eating and broadcasting, I feel that the scene in front of me seems familiar...

Those few times of eating and broadcasting, under normal circumstances, you must suffer a blood loss, but in the end you will be on an equal footing with the prince.

The traffic of Panda Bear has been stable recently, but the traffic of all other platforms where Wang Ting Entertainment is stationed is increasing.

It only took you three months to expand your influence to the entire live broadcast industry.

Brother, don't talk to you about those lies, I want to gamble with you, can you take me a share? "

Li Yixu was still so calm, but his clenched fists revealed the excitement in his heart.

He is not a person with special business talent. He does not see far enough and is not sensitive enough to changes in trends. His style of doing things is mainly stable.

But when it comes to people, he's strong.

So the calmest and most sober approach is: invest in talented people and not do your own projects.

Make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses.

He followed Wang Siming to invest in Banana Entertainment, and planned to follow up with Panda in the second round. Now, he has found a better investment target.

Wang Yan.

Wang Yan is a real god.

God of talent, vision, and temperament.

Even if there is a hint of arrogance occasionally, it is not annoying, but it will be taken for granted.

That guy should be a tyrant who is cold and proud, with confidence so strong that it is almost arrogant.

Which leader is not like this? !

Li Yixu firmly believed that Wang Yan would be able to do great things in the future.

It may not be the Witch Project, it may not be now, but it will definitely be in the future.

So, why not give an early hug?

It is a rare fate to get acquainted in the early days.

...

Li Yixu's firm determination surprised Young Master Wang.

It is normal and reasonable for people like Gao Ya, Wang Youcai, and Yu Qiuli to hug their thighs ahead of time.

Because their own conditions are relatively poor and their choices are narrow, the opportunities Wang Yan can provide are enough to change their class for them.

But Li Yixu is different. He is a first-tier rich second generation, and his personal disposable wealth is at least hundreds of millions.

Wang Yan knew a lot of rich second generations, and most of them had the attitude of playing together if they could, and ignoring anyone who couldn't.

Thigh hug?

nonexistent.

I need your money? !

Even Huang Xu and Lu Yichen's two licking dogs were actually convinced by Wang Yan, not because they saw career prospects in Wang Dashao.

Li Yixu can be regarded as an alternative among the rich second generation, and he really knows how to judge people.

After a few touches, he could accurately see Wang Yan's value, and he would not let go of his bite, hugging his thigh to the end.

Perhaps, this is the struggle mode of interpersonal elites?

There is no difference between doing things with concentration and making things happen because of people.

After a few more years of experience, transforming to become an angel investor, it may not be impossible to become the second Sun Zhengyi.

At this time, Young Master Wang who was "invested" was in a good mood, and his impression of Li Yixu continued to improve.

However, it still did not immediately agree to the other party's investment request.

"Brother Xu, in business and business, an excellent producer like Mr. An is a necessary condition for the success of the project, so you can talk about anything. If you want to join, what can you provide me besides money?"

Wang Yan spoke very bluntly, picking up the words.

Li Yixu was very calm.

"I can help you track down producers and distributors."

The ethos here in Shanghai is that business is always tit-for-tat and uncompromising, and it is not too affected by personal friendship.

Wang Yan was already used to this style, so he didn't hesitate to pierce deeper.

"I'll be even more blind if you hang out with them."

"right."

Li Yixu nodded calmly, with a very grand manner.

“So it’s okay to – I invest 30% of the production cost, but only claim 20% equity.

At the same time, I will lead a team to supervise the publicity and distribution throughout the whole process, try to control the issuer's bad money behavior as much as possible, and let your publicity and distribution funds be spent as wisely as possible. "

The conditions were not unkind, Li Yixu really wanted to get in the car.

However, Wang Yan still shook his head.

"Brother Xu, you didn't understand the point. I don't care about the cost, I only care about whether the collaborators have value in making the film better."

Li Yixu was stunned.

Don't care about the cost?

what are you kidding !

The first lesson of business operation is cost control!

Only by controlling costs can we control risks and go far in the difficult-to-understand market.

It's right not to understand, and anyone who changes it will be confused.

Others made commercial films just to make money, but among all the income, Wang Yan cared the least about money.

If this is a bad movie that can make a lot of money, I'm sorry, I won't make it.

If this is a good film that does not make money in the end, but has a great reputation, can make Xiaogong popular, and can make Wang Ting a way out, OK, do you need additional investment?

So, if you have the ability to make the film better, welcome with your hands up.

If not, just so-called cost reduction...

I don't need your investment, because you will reduce my income at the same time.

Confident that a good shot will explode, and he doesn't care about losing money. The two mentalities combined to create Wang Yan's attitude.

It is difficult for outsiders to understand - that's right, who is qualified to understand cheating?

Of course Li Yixu didn't understand, but Wang Yan made it clear enough that he knew which direction to work towards.

After pondering for a while, when he raised his head again, Mr. Li seemed to have made a new determination.

"Brother, before I get to the core issue, I have a question for you."

"Brother Xu, please tell me."

"Why do you dare to let Mr. An read the entire script?"

Li Yixu stared at Wang Yan with piercing eyes, and the young master burst out laughing and shook his head easily.

"Because this story is adapted from a Korean manga, Wang Ting Entertainment owns the rights to film and television adaptations all over the world except South Korea."

It is not too difficult to win the right to adapt the Witch.

At this moment, the witch's local film and television copyright is still being negotiated, Wang Ting Entertainment took the lead, and even brought a huge negotiating weight to the original author.

Originally, Wang Yan thought that it would be good to win the Chinese copyright, but in the end, he won all the non-local adaptation rights.

If it weren't for the copyright being firmly in hand, how could it be possible for Wang Yan to let An Xiaofang see the extra script when they met for the first time?

You know, screenwriter Wang did all the work of action direction and special effects direction, and the script directly includes action and special effects!

"And, in fact, what Mr. An saw was not the real complete script."

Wang Yan smiled and nodded to the side of his head.

"I have the complete storyboard script. It's here."

Li Yixu suddenly realized.

No wonder!

Sure enough, it is Wang Shao's consistent style, which is considered exhaustive!

Excited, Li Yixu finally made up his mind.

"I can attract investment from Yida and China Film Digital for you, in other words, when The Witch is released, we will have a great advantage in scheduling films in those two theaters.

Also, Shanghai Metropolitan Union and Cinemas, I can get you 40% of the first day of filming - this can be written in the investment agreement. "

Filming? !

Wang Yan was finally moved.

No matter how novice, the importance of arranging films is always clear.

Every time a movie is released, it is always bloody and rainy to tear up the film.

The higher the film schedule in the early stage, the better the box office performance will be.

The better your performance, the more space you can squeeze your opponents in the same period.

The plate is only that big, and whoever eats it belongs to him.

Every year, there are a lot of films whose box office potential has been killed by film scheduling.

Wang Yan originally expected An Xiaofang to solve this matter, but he didn't expect that Li Yixu would be able to give a better answer.

But Wang Yan was in no hurry and asked calmly.

"If so many investors are attracted, the announcement will be included in the total investment, and the model may change. Can you accept it?"

Li Yixu let out a deep breath and nodded slowly.

"Yes. The total investment is tentatively set at 80 million. You keep at least half of it, and we share the rest. Then I will handle the coordination of the entire preliminary project approval, and the final agreement will be based on your opinion. I will work hard to negotiate."

Li Yixu's irreplaceable value was finally revealed.

First Young Master Wang no longer had any reason to veto.

He took the initiative to reach out his hand: "Brother Xu, happy cooperation."

"Okay, happy cooperation!"

...

After the show, Li Yixu started to get busy, and reported the progress to Wang Yan every day.

To be honest, the efficiency is much higher than if Wang Yan did it himself.

Wang Dashao was relieved to be happy, and turned his energy back to the loan.

Chu Hong couldn't sit still anymore, and on Sunday, he invited Wang Yan out again for a small gathering.

The project is pretty amazing - camping.

Young Master Wang has never played camping before, but he is actually quite interested.

Moreover, it's time to give Chu Hong a chance.

But at the thought of looking at the stars by the campfire with a middle-aged fat man, resistance drilled out from every pore.

go?

not going?

While hesitating, Chu Hong gave the young master a step.

"Chen Xi and the others will all go, as well as some old guys from our Mercedes-Benz Club, Mr. Wang, you happen to be driving a Mercedes-Benz, so it's so lively!"

Well, Mercedes-Benz has to give face!

Wang Yan immediately let go along the steps: "Okay, I'm really interested in camping, thank you Chu Xing for your hospitality!"

So it was decided, starting at noon on Sunday and returning on Monday morning.

Camping... you have to bring an umbrella, right?
