Mission Flow

Cao Su took a sip of tea and flipped through the project proposal. The project "Master", directed by Xu Haofeng, is adapted from his own novel "Master", which won the Gold Award for Best Novella at the People's Literature Award.

It can be said that this project has a very good story base.

And Xu Haofeng is the screenwriter of "The Great Master" and the original author of "The Taoist Down the Mountain". Sunglasses King's "The Grandmaster" has won numerous awards! Qiao Mei (Song Hye Kyo), whom Cao Su met by chance in Hollywood a few days ago, has participated in this movie.

Xu Haofeng will also serve as director, screenwriter, and martial arts instructor.

"System, scan."

Cao Su paid 10 million to the system from his existing funds, and used [Project Detector] to scan the movie project. He now has all the funds at his disposal in US stocks.

Before he left the United States, the account contained about $62 million. After a week of remote, low-frequency operations, it has grown to $69 million.

He had already greeted his assistant Sun Xiuling and withdrew 10 million US dollars. Just prepare for him to pay back the money to Song Mengxi, and this trip to the capital.

The project detector quickly gave results, concluding that the yield was negative.

Fuck!

"Old Jia, this story is not good. Don't talk about it anymore!" Cao Su threw "Master", a book about the Jianghu of the Republic of China, on the coffee table, and continued to read "Monster Hunt".

Jia Zihao picked up the script, "Mr. Cao, this book is very good! There are many competitors. If Xu Haofeng insisted on filming by himself, many big directors would be interested. Although martial arts movies have declined, this year there is "The Grandmaster", which has a huge box office. 290 million.

Now IPs in the industry, such as "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", "Little Times", "囧" character series, and blocking films are all controlled by big companies. We have to find a way, and we can consider starting from the genre of martial arts. I found out in the industry that Lu Yang, one of the several directors supported by China Film, made a martial arts film, Xiuchundao. "

Cao Su waved his hand, "Old Jia, you are right. But listen to me!" When he first arrived in Hollywood, he heard 20th Century Fox producer Jeremy Keppel tell him that now it's better to come The six major film giants in the Hollywood, focusing on the development of film themes, financing of film budgets, film distribution and marketing, and procurement of film works.

The so-called movie theme is a genre movie! For example: comedy, youth song and dance, science fiction, and so on.

Jia Zihao's thinking is correct. For a movie to be successful, the first thing is to research what genres are currently on the market. And the Chinese like to watch martial arts!

But he is a coward!

Jia Zihao was so distressed that he put the project materials into his briefcase. Although he was worth hundreds of millions, he had been repaired by Cao Su before, so he really couldn't get tough in front of Cao Su.

"Probe."

[Project: Monster Hunting. 】

[Estimated rate of return: 230%. 】

[Project risk: 33%. 】

[Investment return period: more than one year. 】

[The optimal execution plan of the project: .... 】

Yo, this project does. Cao Su then flipped through the details. This is another Hong Kong-funded project. Director Xu Chengyi, a director honed in Hollywood. The producer is Jiang Zhiqiang. This is a veteran of Hong Kong movies, and he has theaters in his hands.

Jia Zihao has a close relationship with Hong Kong capital, which can be regarded as the capital of the outer circle. In fact, in recent years, the domestic film industry has been flooded and dominated by Hong Kong capital. At least half of the top ten films at the box office each year are their projects.

"Monster Hunt is a good project, is there any suitable role for Andy?"

"Yes, this villainous boss can be played by Hua Tsai." Jia Zihao introduced: "Director Xu has been working in the field of animation films. He has a wealth of experience. However, he has not yet directed a full-length animation.

Jiang Sheng wanted to praise him. Saved up this Monster Hunt book. Because it is a fantasy film, a lot of special effects are required, so the production cost will be relatively high. Jiang Shengding's plan is a production cost of 300 million yuan. "

Cao Su nodded, "Lao Jia, we invested 50 million in and wanted a main supporting role.

This condition is not too much, right? How to ensure that we will not be cheated? This is different from the 5 million invested in the project of "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven". After all, the amount of that project is smaller. "

He walked around Hollywood, and the matter of preventing investment from being scammed has been deeply rooted. These capitalists in the film industry are not good stubble.

Jia Zihao hesitated a little, and said, "Mr. Cao, we are actually in a weak position. Jiang Sheng doesn't lack the funds to invest in movies. He just wants to hedge investment risks. That's why we have the opportunity to invest.

If I talk to them about the film share, I'm afraid I will offend them. They have an internal share contract, and I can get that. Basically, as long as the box office is more than three times the box office, it can earn about 20%. "

Cao Su shook his head, "Business is business. You can't rely on a tacit understanding, it must be implemented in black and white. You go and talk to them. I want to negotiate a sharing agreement based on the movie box office. Don't engage in those false tricks."

Jia Zihao said with a heavy heart, "Okay!" He didn't ask, what if we can't agree?

Cao Su looked at Yun Wenhao again, "Young Master Yun, where are you?"

Yun Wenhao was a little embarrassed, he really didn't expect Jia Zihao to do things so meticulously, with a thick stack of project plans. He only brought the script and some contracts. He took it out and handed it to Cao Su, feeling a little nervous, and said, "Mr. Cao, this is the project I am looking for.

The director is Dapeng, a disciple of Uncle Zhao. He previously made the web drama "Diaosi Man" and released it on Sohu Video. The success of this series has led many people to ask him to make movies. But he found that the scripts of those film companies did not meet his requirements, so Xu Zheng and Huang Bo, the most popular comedians in China, were better than him. So he wrote a script himself. Take the book and cast everywhere in the movie circle.

I prefer his script. 20 million investment may not be able to control the entire project, but also need to cooperate with other film companies. "

Cao Su nodded slightly, and used the item detector to scan.

[Project: Pancake Man. 】

[Estimated rate of return: 760%. 】

[Project risk: 33%. 】

[Investment return period: more than one year. 】

[The optimal execution plan of the project: .... 】

Cao Su was overjoyed when he saw it, and it turned out to be a 7 times return rate. That's a much higher rate of return than Monster Hunt. "This project is fine! Shao Yun, I plan to take charge of this project. How much money is expected?"

Yun Wenhao pondered for a while: "It's a comedy type. I estimate that the filming can be finished at about 40 million!"

Cao Su made a decision and said, "That's fine. Lao Jia, I invested 30 million in the Monster Hunt project to help Hua Tsai get an important supporting role. The extra 20 million went to Yun Shao, the Pancake Man project. Yun Shao, help me make an appointment with the director Dapeng, I will meet and chat with him. Also, do you vote for this film?"

Yun Wenhao helped Cao Su with his busy schedule. He is enjoying the fun of investing tens of millions of dollars to find projects, which can be regarded as exercise and doing things. Cao Su originally wanted to repay his favor for helping to adjust the private jet. Cao Su is going to take him to play.

Although Yun Wenhao has little relationship with Guangguang, but at the age of 24, how many resources of his parents can he use?

And Yun Wenhao was busy, of course he also wanted to eat meat. No interest, who will play with you?

Jia Zihao was a little envious. He didn't find a good project to control, and he didn't have a chance to invest in it!

Yun Wenhao didn't expect Cao Su to talk about business so quickly, and quickly moved to the issues of investment and interests. He thought about it seriously, and said, "Mr. Cao, I'll invest 2 million and get 5% of the proceeds."

"Okay. 5% of the film's revenue. Then, you still play the role of producer." Cao Su stretched out his hand, "Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!" Yun Wenhao and Cao Su shook hands.

After talking about business, the atmosphere in the office was relaxed.

Yun Wenhao sipped his tea and said, "Assistant Leng, is your company the Yuefan Group in Shanghai?"

Leng Yutong was wearing a white down jacket and black slim-fit trousers. She was 1.77 meters tall and nodded coldly, "Yes."

"What did I say! I saw that you looked familiar just now. My dad's name is Yun Benshu. He is very familiar with Leng Pingyuan, the president of your Yuefan Group who is in charge of the entertainment business."

Leng Yutong still had that glamorous look, and said, "That's my cousin!"

Cao Su looked at Leng Yutong in surprise. He really didn't know that his assistant was so talented. Seeing that she didn't want to talk to Yun Wenhao, he helped her out, interrupted Yun Wenhao, and said, "Oh, old Jia , I still have something here that I need you to help me with.

I made a promise to others that I would hand out three quotas for supporting actresses in movies and ten quotas for supporting actresses in TV dramas. Help me find related projects. Quality is not required, but it must be promoted to the script seminar or start shooting as soon as possible. "

Jia Zihao felt better. Cao Su had just cut his budget by 20 million. After thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Cao, is Qianyuan Culture planning to get involved in TV dramas as well?"

"You can try it. I am more optimistic about online dramas."

Jia Zihao pondered for a while, "Mr. Cao, wait for my news. There are a lot of film and television dramas on the market that are starting production. But many of them can't be sold. So, if we want to arrange a few female roles, as long as we are willing to invest in the project, the problem will be fine." big."

Yun Wenhao and Jia Zihao left from the Beijing branch of Dragon Ball Live. Cao Su stretched his waist, the harvest in film and television is good!

"Yutong, you are going to book a hotel now. I have to meet a few people."

"Okay, Mr. Cao." Leng Yutong walked away with long legs.

Cao Su continued to meet with the confidants of Li Hangyi, the general manager who came to poach Liujianfang and Dragon Ball Live. They have been here for several days. He has secretly contacted the female anchors of the show in Six Rooms.

"How about poaching people?"

The subordinate said respectfully: "Mr. Cao, they are still a little afraid that Liujianfang will sue them, and the liquidated damages will not be able to accompany them. Our film and television projects are very attractive to them, but they don't trust them very much."

Cao Su: "Then we need to make some noise to convince them that I am indeed a player in the film and television industry, right?"

"Yes."

Cao Su took a sip of tea from his teacup, "I see."
