Rebirth Starts From 2006
Chapter 473 Come back early
After the fair, I went to the restaurant to exchange cups and drinks. During the period, the bosses of various companies expressed that they have good dramas, and Boss Chen has a lot of money. If there is an opportunity, we can cooperate more.
Chen Yang didn't refuse anyone who came, but he didn't say a word. He just patted his chest and said that he would bring the script first, but for any good drama, Maiyuan Culture would like to contribute a little bit to the film and television industry.
Moreover, he also used the rhetoric that Deloitte is responsible for the financial management of all his business projects, and the investment business is no exception. There is no need to talk about this.
Although there is no definite answer, there is still a hard condition, and the bosses are not disappointed,
Not all dramas can't stand the audit, and not all dramas are so unsightly.
Now that he has opened a film and television production company and can make a name for himself in the industry, there are always a few leading works that need to be produced.
And these works are for word-of-mouth and fame, but they may not be able to earn much money. They are the most suitable projects for serious financing.
Even Wang Jun from Huayi came here with sincerity,
For example, last year, Feng Kuan shot the assembly number, and he always wanted to shoot the big earthquake and 1942, all of which were very risky but had to be shot.
And for such a project, with a great director and a good script, if you give it to Chen Yang, can he not vote?
Today, everyone expressed something about Boss Chen's drone. Even if it is to repay favors, he has to double the money. Let's put the money back!
Otherwise, one can imagine the reputation of this wheat field culture in the circle in the future!
After eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Yang sent these people away one by one, then returned to the yard to wash his face, and then called Huang Shan to leave together.
As for Wang Tao and the others, they lived in the guest room in the third courtyard at the back, so they didn't need to run around.
Huang Shan took the car, and just drove the car out of the gate, but found a figure suddenly rushed out, blocking the front and waving, which startled her and stepped on the brake quickly.
Chen Yang was startled and woke up suddenly, "What's the matter?"
Before Huang Shan could speak, he saw the figure in front of him clearly. He couldn't help but widen his eyes, opened the car window and poked his head out, "Old Wu, what are you doing? Don't you want to die?!"
Wu Jing trotted over hehehe, leaned on the window of the car and smiled, "Mr. Chen, are you free? I want to chat with you."
Chen Yang pointed at him, and pointed to the back angrily, "Get in the car."
"Eh,
okay. "
Wu Jing simply opened the back door and got in.
Huang Shan exhaled a long breath, shook her head with a wry smile, let go of the brake and continued to move forward.
At this time, Chen Yang was no longer confused. He opened the car window to the end, blowing the slightly chilly evening wind, turned his head and smiled, "I found out, you don't look like someone ten years older than me, but you say you are older than me." People who are ten years younger will believe it."
Old Wu didn't mind either, he laughed and said, "If I didn't have this kind of personality, Mr. Chen, would you appreciate me?"
Hey,
Chen Yang turned around to look at him, and chuckled, "Hey, what you said is right on point, but ah, it also has something to do with your real skills. Those who have no skills are called idiots, and those who have skills are called straight-hearted and bold. uninhibited,"
After a pause, he smiled again, "Why, what can you do with me?"
"Eh,"
Old Wu nodded and said with a grin, "You say I'm blunt, so I'll be blunt!"
Chen Yang waved his hand, "Don't be so polite, this is not like your character, um, you can speak up when you have something to say, and it's not like you to beat around the bush."
"hey-hey,"
Old Wu smirked twice, and asked in a low voice, "Boy, Mr. Chen, are you really planning to invest in my movie?"
"Is that why you came here?"
Chen Yang sat upright, shook his head and laughed, and pointed to the back, "Is it worth it to lie to you? It's not a lot of money, and it needs to be discussed in the board of directors.
At most, it will be tens of millions. If we say we vote, we will definitely vote, but still the same sentence, I don’t care about anything else, as long as the accounts are fine. "
Old Wu nodded immediately, "Don't worry about it, my show, the bills are absolutely fine,"
After finishing speaking, he twitched a bit, and then said, "However, to be frank, Mr. Chen, I don't guarantee that this drama will pay off!"
Heh, heh heh...
When Chen Yang heard it, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, even Huang Shan couldn't help laughing,
No wonder later when Old Wu was preparing to shoot Wolf Warriors, it was difficult to even attract investment. Look at those bosses just now, no matter whether they have confidence or not, which one doesn't look confident?
You want to attract people to invest, but in the end you tell the investors, oh, there is no guarantee that I will get back the cost of this drama!
Which investor can bear this? !
Even if you don't have confidence in yourself, I'm still a fart!
However, this is really something that Old Wu can do.
Old Wu sat in the back, couldn't see Boss Chen's expression clearly, he could only see him shaking his head, and couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart, "Mr. Chen, are you still voting?"
Chen Yang turned his head, still shaking his head with a smile, "I said, Old Wu, is this how you undermine investors' confidence? Let Mr. Huang know, and he can save you a crew?"
Old Wu rubbed his head in embarrassment, "I also know that this is not good, but Mr. Chen thinks so highly of me, so I thought I couldn't hide it for you. At the very least, I have to be honest with each other."
"Well, like your character."
Chen Yang nodded, turned back, leaned on the back of the chair and said, "Let me tell you this, as long as you insist on opening this show, no matter how much it costs, I will vote for you."
After a pause, he continued, "Actually, I have the same opinion as you. Your play will probably end up dead!"
ah?
Old Wu was a little dumbfounded, leaning forward and lying on the back of the seat, "Then you still vote?"
Although he said that he might not be able to pay back the money, he was somewhat lucky, and now even Chen Yang said that it was probably useless, so he was a little bit numb.
Chen Yang shrugged and said with a smile, "Vote, why not? Sometimes a failed project is not necessarily a complete failure, but just the wrong time and place for the project. Even if it fails in the end, it is not necessarily a failure. Only lose but not gain,
The loss is money, but the gain can be experience, ideas, or word of mouth. "
Maiyuan is not far from Yu'er Hutong. Walking the path, the car arrived at the door of the house in a few words. Huang Shan turned her head and said with a smile, "Why don't you get out of the car and go in first, and I'll park the car."
"okay,"
Without further ado, Chen Yang unfastened his seat belt and pushed the door to get out of the car. Lao Wu thanked Huang Shan first before following him down.
Opening the door and entering the house, the courtyard was lit with lights. In the main hall, Qin Yu and Zou Rong were nestling on the sofa watching TV. When they saw Chen Yang coming in, Dang Li came out to greet him.
Old Wu followed behind Chen Yang. When he saw two women coming out of the room, he didn't know what was the relationship with Boss Chen, so he quickly smiled and said nothing.
But there was a murmur in his heart, this Boss Chen looked serious, but he didn't expect it to be pretty.
Chen Yang didn't know what he was thinking, so he introduced it briefly first, and then smiled at Old Wu, "Drink or tea?"
Old Wu hurriedly waved his hand, "Stop drinking wine, drink tea, drink tea."
If it was a real friend, he would definitely ask for wine, but at the moment, he is still a little cautious in front of Boss Chen.
Chen Yang pointed at him with a smile, "Oh, when you still feel embarrassed, it's alright, tea is tea, let's go to the study to chat."
The study is also in the main room, the one on the west side is opposite to the master bedroom, separated from the main hall.
It is said to be a study room, but there is a big tea table in the middle of the room, one can tell that this study room is not serious,
Chen Yang sat at the master's seat, called Old Wu to sit down, drew water to make tea, and when the water boiled, he said to Old Wu, "Actually, your current strategy is wrong."
Old Wu was a little baffled, why was he wrong?
Chen Yang pursed his lips and shook his head, and said, "In the early years, Xiangjiang's entertainment industry was developed, especially the film industry, which was known as Oriental Hollywood. Therefore, many actors and singers in our mainland went to Xiangjiang. Your senior brother, later Emperor Gong and Wang Jingwen, all of them caught up with the good time,
However, since the mid-1990s, Xiangjiang movies have been on the decline, especially the Infernal Affairs trilogy, which has almost become the swan song of Xiangjiang movies.
Later Xiangjiang films could never get rid of that petty air, and even their film awards became something for self-entertainment.
But it’s normal. Originally, Xiangjiang was congenitally deficient, with a small area and insufficient cultural depth. It only relied on some special reasons to be able to flourish for a while. Now that its advantages are gone, it’s just returning to its proper position.
But you've got your head around it."
At this time, the water boiled, Chen Yang closed his mouth and poured water to make tea, while Old Wu thought deeply, he already understood what Chen Yang meant.
Wash the tea and make the cup, pour it out and fill it up again, put it on the tray in front of Lao Wu, then continued, "When Xiangjiang film is going downhill and all the artists in Xiangjiang are scrambling to go north, you run to Xiangjiang in the opposite direction. , Going to compete with those artists who stick to their homeland and have a serious underemployment rate, do you still want to be popular?
Do you think it's possible? ! "
Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Lao Wu put down the teacup, looked at Chen Yang and asked, "Then what should I do, go back to the mainland?"
Chen Yang smiled, picked up the pot raising pen, dipped it in the tea soup and brushed it on the outside of the purple sand pot, and then said, "Actually, you have already made a decision in your heart, but you still want to make the last fight, don't you? !"
Old Wu suddenly poked his head down, but put up two thumbs up with both hands, "I'm convinced, I'm really convinced,"
Then he raised his head and sighed, "No wonder you are young, but you can make such a big career. With this vision, why can't you succeed!"
Chen Yang smiled and didn't say a word. I don't know how many reporters dug out and reported on your crap in your previous life. I really don't know.
Old Wu shook his head and asked again, "Then, do you think I still need to gamble?"
He was talking about making a movie. If this movie is made, it will probably be screened in Xiangjiang, and it can be regarded as his last effort.
Chen Yang curled his lips, took a sip from the teacup, let out a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "You have to ask yourself."
Old Wu frowned and thought about it, then raised his head, "I want to hear your opinion."
Chen Yang put down his teacup, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "My opinion is, come back as soon as possible."
After a pause, he continued, "When I entered the media industry, I read the domestic box office data. Since 1998, the total annual box office reached 1.4 billion, and then it was almost cut in half. It has been hovering around the 800 million line. Then it got better in 2004,
It was only 1 billion in 2003, and reached 1.5 billion in 2004, directly setting a historical record.
2 billion in 2005, 2.6 billion in 2006, and 3.3 billion last year. As for this year, everyone predicts it will exceed 4 billion. What do you see? "
Old Wu nodded slowly, "I also know this statistic, which is also one of the reasons why I want to come back to filming. It's just that a large proportion of such a large box office is supported by imported films. Our domestic films , it’s still not a big deal.”
"The market is up, are you afraid that you won't have the chance to produce good works?!"
Chen Yang shook his head and said sternly, "Movies have a very important position in the media industry, and the higher authorities will not allow foreign films to dominate for a long time. Supporting domestic films is imperative and must be done.
When you come back at this time, in terms of acting skills, you are not bad, and in terms of real skills, you are the best in this trip. As long as you make one or two good films and make your name famous, the rewards you can reap will be far more than going to Xiangjiang to work hard. "
Old Wu gritted his teeth, a little hesitant,
He will definitely come back when he comes back, but the choice of time is very important. One more thing, he went to Xiangjiang to work hard for several years, but he didn't make a name for himself.
Chen Yang smiled suddenly, served him more tea, and said, "You don't need to make a decision now, think about how to go in the future, this kind of thing can't be sloppy,
In addition, the film market in the mainland has not really grown up yet. When the annual box office exceeds 10 billion, it should be almost there. "
"Ten billion?"
Old Wu's eyes widened, "Then it will take a long time!"
Even if it increases to 10 billion at a rate of 500 million a year, it will take more than ten years? !
Chen Yang shook his head, "No, it will only take two or three years at most."
Mainland films exceeded 10 billion for the first time in 2010. Since then, they have been rising all the way without looking back, and went straight to the second box office in the world.
Old Wu didn't stare this time, he pretended that Chen Yang was talking nonsense, so he picked up the teacup and drank tea with a smile.
Chen Yang didn't explain, and continued, "Speaking of your planned film, if I'm not mistaken, you plan to film in Xiangjiang, and then put on a love shell, make an urban kung fu romance film?"
Old Wu's eyes widened again, "How do you know?"
"Hmph," Chen Yang laughed twice, shook his head and said, "Xiangjiang movies are nothing more than that set, cops and bandits, revenge, beatings and killings, and it just fits your specialties, and some emotional dramas When embellished, put together some comedy elements, it is a movie,
But have you ever thought about it, who did you shoot such a plot for? "
Old Wu was stunned for a moment, blinking thoughtfully.
Chen Yang refilled his tea and said with a smile, "Let's show it to Xiangjiang, do you think you have box office appeal in Xiangjiang? Then show it to the mainland?
But now mainlanders don’t really watch Hong Kong movies. They either watch big Hollywood productions or co-productions between Inner and Hong Kong. "
Frankly speaking, Wolf Fang is a good commercial film. If it is released in five years, the box office should not be much worse.
But when it was released this year, how much box office did it take?
The sum of Hong Kong and Hong Kong in the mainland is only over 6 million, and then the theater distribution, distribution distribution, and when the producer gets it, it is less than 3 million.
Although the actual production cost was not as much as the three million US dollars they advertised, it was definitely a blood loss, and Lao Wu went home directly.
Back to the present, even if Chen Yang invests in him and pulls in the resources of Qiandu and Goose Factory to promote him, the possibility of getting back the capital is not much higher.
Market preferences are there. It doesn't mean that if you make a good film, someone will definitely like it.
