Chapter 297 Investing
It can be said that this audition will be a failure.

Because apart from Yi Shuihan, none of the artists passed the audition.

But at the same time, fortunately, Jin Lizhang has found a most suitable protagonist - Yi Shuihan.

He believes that Yi Shuihan can play the role of Lin Tianze well, but now, the most important thing is to find an investor again.

But soon, he found that it was more difficult to find new investment than before. The Cai Group spread bad words about him everywhere in the industry, and entertainment capital's confidence in him became lower and lower...

In Yi Shuihan's studio, Yi Shuihan was negotiating with Zheng Liaoyuan on the studio's first investment.

"Are you sure you want to invest in this TV series? With Jin Lizhang's current situation, if the finished product is not good, then this TV series may not be sold, resulting in nothing!" Zheng Liaoyuan looked at the young man in front of him. said the man seriously.

He didn't expect that just two days ago, he had exchanged with Yi Shuihan the idea of ​​investing in a TV series, and Yi Shuihan would immediately find a TV series for himself, and this TV series was not favored by the public in the industry.

Yi Shuihan smiled lightly and said vigorously: "If everyone likes this TV series, then how can we get it?"

"So confident in this drama?" Zheng Liaoyuan asked with a smile.

"No," Yi Shuihan replied, "I have confidence in myself!"

Yi Shuihan has his own considerations in wanting to invest in this TV series.

There are many factors that determine whether a TV series can be popular, but the most critical point is the quality of the TV series.

In terms of script, Yi Shuihan believes that few TV dramas can be more exciting than it.

In terms of directing, after all, Jin Lizhang has directed too many popular TV series. Although he has not directed for several years, his skills are still there, so the problem should not be too big.

In terms of actors, Yi Shuihan also saw the process of Jin Lizhang's selection of actors. From his strict audition, it can also be seen that Jin Lizhang has high requirements for actors, so the actors selected in the end must be capable. , and with Yi Shuihan playing the leading role himself, you can rest assured.

Speaking of arrogance, Yi Shuihan couldn't even think of a reason why this TV series wasn't popular.

Now the capital in the circle's impression of Jin Lizhang is still on his last failed work, and he hasn't directed for many years, so he was given such a good investment opportunity.

Zheng Liaoyuan couldn't help laughing as he looked at Yi Shuihan, who was so confident that he was even a little arrogant.

It was precisely because of Yi Shuihan's confident attitude that he finally decided to come to help him.

If a person doesn't even have self-confidence, then he will definitely not achieve great success.

After taking over Yi Shuihan's studio, he conducted in-depth research on Yi Shuihan's development in the entertainment industry.

He found a very interesting thing, that is, Yi Shuihan almost never made any wrong decisions or judgments, which is extremely incredible for a newcomer in the entertainment circle.

Whether it is participating in "The Voice of China" or participating in any TV series.

Yi Shuihan is steady and steady, step by step. Although he didn't become popular overnight like other popular niches, the increase and accumulation of popularity is real.

During this process, Yi Shuihan experienced many storms, many right and wrong, but he survived all of them without any danger.

This is not only because of Yi Shuihan's excellent response, but also because of the popularity and heritage he has accumulated before.

Along the way, he already has a group of fans who fanatically support him.

And his decision to invest at this time must not be a whim.

Zheng Liaoyuan, who starred in the TV series Yi Shuihan, also made up for it. Both the TV series and Yi Shuihan's performance can be said to be excellent.

And this "New Life" starring Yi Shuihan must be the same.

As Yi Shuihan said, just because others don't like this TV series doesn't mean it's bad.

You'll never get the biggest piece of the pie if you follow everyone else's lead in everything.

At this time, Jin Lizhang was struggling to find investment, and it was the best time to intervene.

After the two reached an agreement, they invited Jin Lizhang to the studio for a detailed discussion.

This was the third time that Jin Lizhang saw Yi Shuihan, but he did not expect a fundamental change in the positions of the two of them at this time.

He was a director before, and Yi Shuihan was an actor.

At this time, he was still the director, but Yi Shuihan was already an investor.

"We meet again, Director Jin." Yi Shuihan said with a smile, holding Jin Lizhang's hand.

"I didn't expect that the last investor I found was you, Shuihan." Jin Lizhang said with emotion.

Yi Shuihan smiled, and could imagine Jin Lizhang's complicated emotions at this time.

"Hello, I'm Zheng Liaoyuan from Yi Shuihan Studio, and I'm in charge of discussing investment with you this time." Zheng Liaoyuan introduced himself.

Jin Lizhang also shook hands with him. For Zheng Liaoyuan, Jin Lizhang's first impression was that of a shrewd businessman. He even felt that he would not get a satisfactory answer today.

Sure enough, Zheng Liaoyuan's first sentence made him feel that sharp feeling that pierced people's hearts.

"I have learned that Cai's Group invested 80 million, accounting for 80.00% of the investment, and asked for 80.00% of the dividends from this TV series." Zheng Liaoyuan said casually, as if talking about an unimportant matter.

But Jin Lizhang was shocked immediately after hearing this, he didn't expect that the other party would know such a private matter!

Amazing!Yi Shuihan couldn't help sighing in his heart, he also didn't expect Zheng Liaoyuan to inquire about such important news in such a short period of time!
His attitude seemed casual, but he had already pushed Jin Lizhang to a dead end!
It's like knowing the opponent's hole cards and chips, no matter how you talk about him, he is the winner!

Jin Lizhang originally wanted to fight for more benefits, but now it seems that it is considered good to be able to keep the 20.00% dividend as before.

"Since you already know it, I won't hide it. The agreement between me and the Cai family was like this before. How do you feel about the same dividends?" Jin Lizhang said straight to the point, this is already the bottom line he accepted.

"I don't think it's very appropriate!" Zheng Liaoyuan and Yi Shuihan looked at each other and said with a smile.

"Talk about it!" Jin Lizhang said calmly, but he was ready for the negotiation to fail.

"The film remuneration of Shuihan is 500 million as a share, and the studio will invest another 600 million!" Zheng Liaoyuan said with a smile.

This investment amount is 20 more than Cai's Group, but if he wants to use the 20 to get more dividends, Zheng Liaoyuan will not accept it.

"We want 70.00% of the profit of this TV series!" Zheng Liaoyuan said the dividend ratio agreed with Yi Shuihan before, even if it was so, it was already far higher than the market dividend ratio.

He believes that Jin Lizhang can make a comeback with this TV series!

For a studio, the favor of a good director is more important than profit.

This answer was obviously beyond Jin Lizhang's expectation. He didn't expect that the other party would actually give him a profit!
"Why?" he asked softly.

Yi Shuihan looked at him and said with a smile: "Because I believe in Director Jin's strength, and I also believe that this TV series will definitely be profitable!"
