China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 7 Three Methods
He Fang was not in a hurry, first took a sip of orange juice, then took out the cigarette, lit it, and took a sip slowly.

"Actually, your worries have long been considered by Hollywood investors. There are three main methods."

"Which three methods, let us also learn from advanced international experience." Guo Guangsheng asked excitedly.

"One is the method of risk sharing. To put it bluntly, it is to find people to invest together and share the risks together. Although high profits are attractive, you have to have the opportunity to get them. Sharing risks is different. You have a little bit, and I have a little bit, in case you lose money. , everyone doesn’t lose much, they won’t hurt their muscles and bones, and they can continue to play.”

Guo Zhaosheng listened and nodded. It is not difficult to imagine that everyone is using it.

"What about the second type?" Miss Lu also asked with interest.

"The second method is the gambling method."

"What kind of bet?" Guo Zhaosheng asked.

"That is to find a VAM company. Forget it, let's take the current project as an example. If, I mean, if, Mr. Guo, you are afraid of risks, we can have a VAM. For example, if the box office is less than 1500 million , I will return your principal of 500 million to you, which is a lot. If it is higher than 1500 million and lower than 2400 million, we will share 2400% for you and 700% for me. If it is higher than [-] million, then I'll give you [-] million to settle, and I'll make money if you get more. This is the gambling method."

When Guo Zhaosheng heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. This is good, and the risk is low.

"Director He, why did you only pay 2400 million for a box office of more than 700 million? You made more money but didn't give up? The 500 million cost was paid by us." Miss Lu asked immediately.

He Fang smiled, "Have you ever thought about it, I took the risk of covering the bottom? If the box office is less than 1500 million, I will pay the full cost of 500 million. Now that I have taken the risk, I must have a high return This is a reasonable betting condition, without the temptation of high returns, otherwise who would bet against you? Isn’t it just for high returns.”

Facing He Fang's explanation, Ms. Lu thought for a while, then nodded to Guo Zhaosheng.At this time, Guo Zhaosheng suddenly regained confidence, and felt that this project could be done, and he could get back the lost 200 million.Even if he didn't make any money, it's great that his 500 million investment is still covered by someone.

"Well, it's really the American's idea. It's fair and reasonable. That's good." Guo Zhaosheng nodded.

"Then Mr. Guo, let's stick to this, do you think it's okay?" He Fang said indifferently.

Anyway, it is an empty glove white wolf, and he is confident that he will not be empty.Therefore, it doesn't matter to him which method is used.As long as investors feel secure and happy, then this is a win-win situation.

"Wait a minute, didn't you say there are three ways? I didn't hear the last one. I want to see how the Americans play it." Guo Zhaosheng asked.

"The third method is very simple, cash out the package in a short time." He Fang took another puff of cigarette after speaking.

It’s just that Guo Zhaosheng’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this, that’s great, wouldn’t it be even better if he could use 500 million to cash back 700 million within two to three months?
"What kind of packaging cash method?" Guo Zhaosheng asked.

"There are three types of packaging and cashing out. The first one is to package this movie project with great prospects, good scripts, big stars, and many cooperations. At first glance, it is a 100% profitable thing. But now investors are in urgent need of cashing out, so Transfer this project to other investors. Of course, there is a premium, after all, this is a matter of making money with a clear eye.”

"The second way is to package this project together with other products and put it on the stock market to cash out. This kind of cashing out can be done twice, one is cashing out before the movie is released, and the other is after the movie is released. Good cause the stock price to go up."

"The third way is to package a movie with a cost of 500 million yuan to 3000 million yuan, and then divide it into a share of 10 yuan, and make it into a wealth management product and sell it to rich people who want to manage money. In this way, you will earn money before the movie is released. 3000 million have gone."

After He Fang finished these three methods, Guo Zhaosheng opened his mouth slightly and was stunned. It turned out that the old beauty can play so many tricks on a product.

"Fuck, Americans really know how to play, how did they come up with so many tricks?" Guo Zhaosheng asked.

"If we don't stop private financial usury, we will play more tricks. You can learn about the bank bosses in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They also played a lot of tricks. To put it bluntly, they sucked away the surplus money in the hands of ordinary people and passed it on. Finally, this kind of packaging is not available in China now, you just need to understand. So, Mr. Guo, do you still want to cooperate with me? If you want to cooperate, you can choose one of the first two methods.” He Fangya spread his hands.

Let's not talk about Guo Zhaosheng and Ms. Lu at this time, but Zhang Qian who was listening next to him was stunned.I feel that our domestic business is like playing artificial plowing, while others in Europe and the United States have long been mechanized, and the gap is really too big.

"Director He, I really admire you. You are a real insightful person. You never thought of cheating me, otherwise you wouldn't have told me these things. I have learned a lot from you in just two days. I used to think I was good at doing business, but what you told me these two days made me suddenly feel that I can’t do business anymore.” Guo Zhaosheng felt a sense of despair.

"Haha, it's normal. Now our country is in the stage of extensive development. As long as you dare to do it and look at the right time, no matter what degree you have, you will have the opportunity to start from nothing. But in a few years, this opportunity will not come again, you How many self-made people are there in European and American countries? It’s difficult. Because the gameplay is getting more and more advanced, and the roughest ones are screened out. Simple tricks like Wu Lai’s will become less and less feasible in the future. , In the future, when cooperating with others, the first thing to do is to be courteous before fighting, to play with wisdom, and to play with rules."

He Fang drank orange tea slowly and smoked a cigarette.

"Okay, don't say anything, I choose to bet against you, Miss Lu, let's draw up a new contract that we talked about just now, and we will sign the contract later. Whether it makes money or not, I think that with Director He It’s good to do things together and learn some knowledge.”

Guo Zhaosheng knocked on the table and said excitedly.

"Haha, Mr. Guo, you've flattered me. How can I impart any knowledge to you? I have to learn more from you."

"Learn what from me? I'm just a rough guy."

"Hey, no matter how many ideas you have, you can't do anything without being reckless. Look at the ancient times. Are educated scholars changing dynasties? They are all uneducated reckless men, because they have the momentum to pierce the sky. Guo It’s always this kind of person, I need to learn more.”

"Ah, don't say it, I really did it with a lot of energy when you say it like this..." He Fang praised Guo Zhaosheng, and he found that he had a bright spot again.
