Chapter 9 I was shocked
Jiang Heng shook his head. "I plan to release this movie worldwide, and I particularly value the mainland market. I will definitely not sell out the copyright!"
The Wang brothers were quite disappointed after hearing this. They originally thought that Jiang Heng was young and easy to fool, so they bought out the copyright at a low price.
But this kid spoke with such certainty, as if his product could be a global hit!
Hey, who gave you the confidence?
Wang Zhonglei couldn't help but ask, "I wonder what type of film Mr. Jiang is making, who are the male and female leads, and how much is the investment?"
"As for the investment, it's about 100 million. Both the male and female lead actors are newcomers. Look, Miss Li Meiqi next to me is the female lead of the film. As for the genre of the film, it's science fiction, which is more popular among European and American audiences!"
When these words were spoken, everyone present was a little confused.
Li Meiqi was originally thinking to herself, "One hundred million? Why didn't I feel like I spent that much?"
Considering the crew's expenses, a few million would be good enough!
The special effects scenes are very good, and it shouldn’t cost more than 70 or 80 million!
Yu Dong always felt something was wrong. Science fiction? Why did it always feel like the style didn't match the painting?
The Wang brothers tried hard to hold back their laughter. The eldest brother, Wang Zhongjun, was very shrewd and it was difficult for him to hold back his laughter.
Wang Zhonglei couldn't hold it in for less than a minute before he couldn't help but burst out laughing!
"Science fiction? Are you kidding me? Science fiction, can Hong Kong make a good science fiction movie? If you want to say action, comedy, or something like that, that's fine, but science fiction, hahahaha!"
Wang Zhonglei couldn't stop laughing, so he patted Yu Dong on the shoulder, "He said science fiction movies, you Beijing Film Academy are not really planning to release a Hong Kong-produced science fiction movie, are you, haha!"
Yu Dong naturally wouldn't take the initiative to mention Jiang Heng's plan to start a bank with him, so he said, "It's hard to say. What if the film is of good quality and the boss likes it?"
Wang Zhongjun's mind moved, "Mr. Jiang, can you show me the content of the video?"
Jiang Heng shook his head slightly, "Post-production is still a little behind, let's wait for a while!"
But because of Wang Zhonglei, I was too lazy to deal with these two.
"Humph, you're hiding it and don't dare to take it out. I guess the photos you took aren't that good. We won't waste our time with you. Lao Yu, you're not leaving?"
Wang Zhonglei suddenly stood up and wanted to ask Yu Dong to go with him.
Yu Dong smiled awkwardly, "There's nothing I can do. I have to complete the process of discussing the task given by my leader. I'll treat you guys to a drink some other day!"
He and the Wang brothers don't have a very deep friendship, so how could they possibly advance and retreat together?
Furthermore, starting a business was originally just an idea in his heart, but he never dared to implement it and it was difficult to implement.
But now Jiang Heng has appeared, he has projects, funds, channels and connections, it can be said that they are a match made in heaven.
The only problem is the quality of the film. If it is really a terrible bad movie, it seems like Jiang Heng is losing money.
If the film turns out great, maybe this time it will work!
After the Wang brothers left, Yu Dong leaned forward and said, "Mr. Jiang, your movie is not really unfinished, is it?"
Jiang Heng took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "How is that possible? I am more inclined to cooperate with you at the moment, so I don't want to show it to them!"
"Then, can I watch the movie?"
"of course can!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Dong could no longer sit still and dragged Jiang Heng to find the hotel to arrange a small meeting room for them.
When Li Meiqi, wearing a black tight leather jacket, appeared on the screen, jumped into the air, and the camera rotated to show the full range, Yu Dong was stunned.
He has been in the industry for five years and has seen countless films of various types and too many action scenes, but none of them shocked and surprised him as much as today.
As the plot unfolds, Yu Dong seems to have discovered a new world and feels that his brain and eyes are not enough.
"The world is virtual, and we just live in a matrix world created by artificial intelligence. Oh my God, he can actually dodge bullets. How was this shot of a bullet cutting through the air taken? Is this the charm of special effects...?" For more than two hours, Yu Dong felt that countless questions popped up in his mind.
Before one problem is figured out, a new one arises.
"How does it feel?" Jiang Heng asked with a smile.
Yu Dong was so focused on watching that he had exhausted a lot of energy. He lay on the chair tiredly, but his eyes were bright.
"How should I put it? I think it's no exaggeration to call it an epoch-making work. Was this really shot by you?"
Jiang Heng smiled and pointed at Li Meiqi beside him, "The heroine is right beside us!"
Yu Dong nodded slightly, feeling that he was worrying too much.
"If this movie is released nationwide, a box office of 50 million is still...!"
Yu Dong stopped talking halfway when he thought about the fact that the agency distribution share ratio is 5%-15% of the production and distribution party's share of the income. With a box office of more than million, the production and distribution party can probably get million, which is almost more than million in distribution fees!
If I own 10 points of shares, that would be $, enough to earn for several years!
According to his original idea, if he wanted to start his own business, he would have to be a major shareholder and have the right to speak.
However, Jiang Heng’s advantage is so great that it is difficult for him to gain benefits.
"Well, in fact, the most important thing for the issuance is the channel network. A capital of more than 300,000 is enough, not 1 million!"
"and then?"
"Well, you put in 200,000, and I put in 100,000 plus channels and networks, and we split the shares and profits in half, how do you say that?"
Jiang Heng smiled and shook his head. "You are too calculating. Channel networks are important, but they are not irreplaceable. A big reward will always attract brave men. I only need to offer a high price to hire the right person."
Yu Dong said, "That's not the case. The distribution company has to find a way to get the film approved with as few cuts as possible, and also find a way to get a quota. There won't be anyone more suitable than me!"
"Ten points!"
"Mr. Jiang, it's too insincere for you to say that. I'm doing well at Beijing Film Academy. Do you think it's possible for me to leave for a 10% profit share?"
Yu Dong spoke in a huff, seemingly very angry.
"The problem is, you also know the quality of this film and the potential revenue after the company is established. Ten points is really not a small amount!"
"At least 40 points, no less!"
Jiang Heng shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "If you ask me, let's just stop here for today. Go back and think about it carefully. Anyway, it's still early for the show."
Yu Dong opened his mouth when he heard this, and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.
"Well, I won't disturb your rest. I'll come again tomorrow!"
After Yu Dong left, Li Meiqi couldn't help but say, "Why don't you wait until the discussion is over before letting him see the sample film? Then there won't be any trouble!"
"That's not the case. Yu Dong is a very capable and ambitious person. If there is no sufficient interest, I can't invite him even if I pay a high price. If he doesn't see the sample film, he won't cooperate with me."
Li Meiqi suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Then he probably won't be able to sleep tonight!"
