People in China Entertainment, bring capital into the group at the beginning

Chapter 246 Unsolicited Collaboration!
"Abin, brother Jing, what are you two talking about, so happy?" Guo Fan, the director, walked over and couldn't help but talk.

"Oh!" Chen Zhibin glanced at Wu Jing, opened his mouth with a random reason, and said, "Brother Jing and I are talking about the big scenes in the Wandering Earth. It is actually quite difficult to restore them all."

This was a temporary lie, after all, it was at the opening ceremony of "The Wandering Earth", he couldn't say that he was talking about when "Wolf Warrior 2" would be released.

Although this is nothing, it seems impolite after all.

"It's really difficult, but fortunately we have a professional special effects team, but the post-production may cost a little more money." Guo Fan said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the special effects are realistic enough, follow-up investment can still be discussed." Chen Zhibin drew a cake.

Of course, he didn't make any random promises to the other party. The phrase "can continue to discuss" contains many meanings.

Whether the special effects are good or not, and whether the follow-up investment will increase or not depends on Chen Zhibin's mood. I believe Guo Fan is also very clear about this.

However, with Chen Zhibin around, for director Guo Fan, after all, it is an extra layer of protection, and he doesn't have to worry about follow-up funds like in his previous life.

At the beginning, Wu Jing was invited to make a guest appearance. As a result, "The Wandering Earth" was too expensive because of the grand scene, and the follow-up funds could not keep up with the filming. main character.

Of course, because of his participation in the filming and production, I believe Wu Jing can also see the prospect of this hard science fiction movie, otherwise, even if the director Guo Fan said it was a hype, he would definitely not pour money into it.

After all, at that time, the investment cost of "The Wandering Earth 1" had already exceeded more than [-] million yuan. If he continued to add tens of millions of yuan, it would take at least a billion box office to pay back the cost. It was not easy at the time.

The bigger the base, the harder it will be to pay back!

Before 2017, domestic films had not reached the point where a hundred flowers bloomed, not to mention billions at every turn, and there were still relatively few films that could reach more than 10 billion yuan, so the chances of winning the bet were not very high.

"Yes, it's true that you need to find Boss Chen. That's what he does. He has a lot of money." Wu Jing also agreed with him.

When filming "Wolf Warrior 2", Chen Zhibin, one of the funders, helped him solve many financial problems before joining the team.

Later, after joining the group, he even helped him solve the heroine. Of course, Wu Jing himself didn't know this, after all, he only knew that Chen Zhibin was rich and powerful, and he was one of the film's financial sponsors.

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Chen and Director Wu."

Guo Fan shook hands with Chen Zhibin very politely. Compared with Wu Jing, who has social bullying, he still seemed a little socially afraid after all.

"You're welcome, Director Guo."

Chen Zhibin pointed to Wu Jing who was next to him and said, "Brother Jing and I will have to make ends meet in your group for the rest of the time!"

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, don't you slap me in the face when you say this!" Guo Fan quickly waved his hand. Although he is a director, whether it is Chen Zhibin or Wu Jing, his popularity and status in the entertainment circle are slightly higher than his higher.

Especially Chen Zhibin, Abin Ventures is one of the sponsors of "The Wandering Earth", and the other party has more rights than himself.

And Wu Jing, who is slightly worse, is also a director like him.

"Why don't you dare to be this? The county magistrate should take care of it now. I think that when I filmed Wolf Warrior 2, if that part of the acting was not good, I would yell at this boy, A Bin, so hard that he couldn't open his eyes!" Wu Jing and Guo Fan said in a serious manner.

Hearing this, Chen Zhibin smiled and said nothing, but Wu Jing's assistant next to him obviously couldn't hold back.

No way, she had witnessed it with her own eyes on the set. What Wu Jing said was too different from the reality, and the female assistant couldn't hold back for a while.

When filming "Wolf Warrior 2", Wu Jing yelled at Wu Gang, Chunyu Shanshan, and Lu Jingshan, but he was always calm when he was talking to Chen Zhibin. In his words, whoever makes others be golden Lord father!
The other actors have stopped acting. If Chen Zhibin stops acting and withdraws his capital, where will he go to bring in such a bold investor.

"What are you laughing at?" Wu Jing couldn't help asking.

"No, I think of something happier." The female assistant hurriedly shook her head, but she turned her head silently as she was struggling.

It doesn't matter if she turns around, she can finally laugh wantonly, her body twitches a little when seen from behind, those who don't know think she is crying.

Seeing this, Wu Jing couldn't help but smile when he looked at Guo Fan again. Thinking about what he said just now, he couldn't hold back anymore.

And at this time, Guo Fan finally understood that Wu Jing was trying to trick him. Thanks to his listening so attentively just now, he almost believed it.

"Uncle Da." Just as Wu Jing was bragging to Guo Fan, Wu Mengda also came up, and Chen Zhibin immediately stepped forward to greet him.

This golden supporting role, who was hailed as a green leaf by the audience, had passed away in Chen Zhibin's previous life, so it's quite embarrassing to see him again!
"Hello." Wu Mengda also shook hands with Chen Zhibin. As an actor in Radio Xiangjiang, he has never had the habit of bringing assistants. This is something that mainland actors can learn from.

After all, there are some little fresh meat, three assistants, five bodyguards, and those who support and protect before going out. Those who don't know think they are some "big shots"!

"Uncle Da." Wu Jing followed closely, and after Chen Zhibin chatted politely with Wu Mengda, he also came up to hug him.

It has to be said that Wu Jing understands the ways of the world. At this time, Chen Zhibin couldn't help thinking of the time when he was in the Huabiao Award candidate area in his previous life.

Wu Jing was chatting with Yiyang Qianxi at first, but when he saw the big director Chen Kai beside him, he immediately went to the side and hugged Arthur Chen Feiyu.

Faced with this situation, even Hu Jun next to him was stunned, hesitating for a moment whether he should step forward and be polite, otherwise, wouldn't he appear to be very dull and very incapable of being a human being? .

After all, it wasn't Chen Feiyu's face, but Chen Kai's. Who let them both star in "Changjin Lake" directed by my father.

Reincarnation is a technical job. Arthur Chen Feiyu starred in the film "Secret Fruit" of the same name based on Rao Xueman's youth pain novel since his debut. It can be said that the starting point is not generally high. This is naturally because he has a good father.

At an awards ceremony, Arthur threatened to surpass his father, hoping that one day when everyone mentions their father and son again, the first thing they will talk about is not Chen Kaige's son, but Chen Feiyu's father.

"Maizi, this way." Chen Zhibin waved.

At this time, he happened to see Zhao Jinmai standing beside him rubbing his hands in a daze, not knowing where he was standing. Chen Zhibin immediately waved at the other party, making room for her to come to his side.

Hearing this, Zhao Jinmai was flattered immediately, she didn't expect Chen Zhibin to know her.

However, after seeing that Chen Zhibin was surrounded by big names, she waved her hands quickly and said, "No need, I'll just stand here."

The current Zhao Jinmai is only 15 years old. Although he didn't look so young when he starred in "Little Farewell", he is actually not much older.

To say that she really grows into a slim girl, she has to be Li Shiqing, who plays in "The Beginning", with fair skin, big eyes, well-balanced facial features, and a little bit of Tan Songyun, like a sweet-looking neighbor. My little sister, she does look a little surprised.

"It's okay." Chen Zhibin made room for the other party.

"Thank you, Teacher Chen." Zhao Jinmai glanced at Chen Zhibin gratefully.

"You're welcome, just call Abin." Chen Zhibin is a beast, but he's not a beast. Of course he wouldn't be interested in an adult girl who hasn't grown up yet. He just finds Zhao Jinmai quite pleasing to the eye.

What's more, the other party plays his younger sister Han Duoduo in the film, and the elder brother should take care of the younger sister. If you want to deepen the relationship between the characters, you must learn to start from the habits outside the film.

Just like when filming "A Slight Smile is Alluring", Chen Zhibin and Jing Tian fell in love in the play, and they also fell in love in reality outside the play, so the acting is naturally more natural.

Of course, Chen Zhibin didn't intend to fall in love with Zhao Jinmai, he just treated him as his younger sister.

Besides, when we go back to film "The Beginning", the two may have the opportunity to continue working together again.

"Okay, Brother Abin." Zhao Jinmai, who was only 15 years old, was very obedient, and immediately changed his name to Brother Chen Zhibin.

"Hey, that's right!" Chen Zhibin was most annoyed by those false politeness. The entertainment industry is always dominated by teachers and teachers. On the surface, it sounds very high-end, but how many people can really be worthy of this title.

Anyway, Chen Zhibin doesn't think there are many people. Among the people he has worked with and met, there are only a handful of people who can be worthy of the title of teacher.

However, the more he didn't want to hear anything, the more he wanted to hear something. Before Chen Zhibin finished speaking, a middle-aged man who was about 1.6 meters tall walked towards him.

"Hello, Teacher Chen, I'm Ning Hao."

Ning Hao came to help today as a friend of director Guo Fan. He also came with another director, Lu Yang. The three of them often get together to discuss their works, and they are quite good friends in private.

When filming "The Wandering Earth" in the previous life, both Ning Hao and Lu Yang had cameo roles in it, one as the "Second Uncle" and the other as the "Security Inspection A".

In addition, even Liu Cixin, the author of the original work, played the role of a space station officer as a cameo.

"Hello, Director Ning, right? I've seen the movie you directed, Crazy Stone and Crazy Racing." Chen Zhibin immediately shook hands with the other party.

The reason why I was so impressed was that the famous "Public Entrance Examination Duo" was from the movie "Crazy Racing".

"That's great, I'll just say it straight." Ning Hao said.Originally, he thought he had to introduce himself first, but now it seems that he doesn't need it.

"But it's okay to say." Seeing Ning Hao's appearance, Chen Zhibin knew that the other party must be looking for him for film matters.

In fact, in the previous life, "The Wandering Earth" directed by Guo Fan was almost filmed together with "Crazy Alien" directed by Ning Hao. It is in the newly built film and television base of Qindao, the Oriental Movie Metropolis.

As a high-tech film and television industrial park, the Oriental Movie Metropolis started construction in 2013, and most of the studios were completed at the end of last year.

Among the movies filmed in this movie city, in addition to "The Wandering Earth" and "Crazy Alien", there are later "Lonely Walking on the Moon" and "Assassination of Novelists", all of which are more sci-fi special effects movies.

But now because the filming of "The Wandering Earth" started a few months earlier, it is completely staggered with "Crazy Alien" directed by Ning Hao.

One step worse, one step worse, because of this, Ning Hao is still in the process of preparing to shoot the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine".

"It's like this. As for me, I'm currently supervising the production of a realistic-themed movie based on real events. Something went wrong. One of the investors suddenly withdrew their capital before the filming started..." Ning Hao told Chen Zhibin.

In addition, this is also one of the reasons why he came to help Guo Fan to participate in the opening ceremony of "The Wandering Earth", that is, to meet with Chen Zhibin to see if he can fill in the small funding hole that was vacant by the way.

It was no secret in the industry that Chen Zhibin was the boss behind the scenes of Abin Ventures, so he directly skipped the company's tedious review steps and approached Chen Zhibin himself.

If it can be filled by the way, it will be fine, and everything will be fine. If it can't be filled, it doesn't matter. At most, he will find someone else.

In fact, what Ning Hao didn't say was that the investor invested in the film "I'm Not the God of Medicine" because it was adapted from real events, the plot involved too many sensitive issues, and it was a special theme. The money was wasted in vain, and it was only after careful consideration that he decided to withdraw the capital.

Otherwise, with his Ning Hao's name and the two masterpieces "Crazy Stone" and "Crazy Racing", he wouldn't have come to solicit investment in person.

Since "No Man's Land", Ning Hao has been fascinated by movies with such sensitive themes. Although "I'm Not the God of Medicine" was directed by Wen Muye, he and Xu Zheng were excluded from it as the producers. A lot of power.

"How much does it cost?" Chen Zhibin asked straight to the point.

"2000 million." Ning Hao replied.

"No problem, I voted. I'll call the company later, and someone in charge of this aspect will contact you." Chen Zhibin said bluntly.At first, I thought that the film's investors were already full, and I couldn't join in, but I didn't expect that there would be a withdrawal of funds to give him the money.

And Ning Hao was also very helpful, instead of going to others to "give money", he took the initiative to come to Chen Zhibin to leave this opportunity.

It seems that having a reputation as an investment tycoon in the entertainment circle is of great benefit to him, and he doesn't even need to take the initiative to discuss cooperation.

People who are stupid and rich have good luck. Talking about cooperation with Chen Zhibin is not only simple and straightforward, but also his luck is very good, almost every movie will not lose money, so there are many people in the entertainment industry rushing to cooperate with companies under the name of Chen Zhibin.

"Ah, don't you want to ask about the movie?" Ning Hao asked.Chen Zhibin made it so straightforward, but it actually fooled him.

But think about the total investment of "The Wandering Earth" is more than 2000 million yuan. Although Abin Ventures only accounts for a small part, it is also several [-] million yuan.

"I'm not the god of medicine, am I?" Now that Ning Hao said so, Chen Zhibin simply confirmed it, so as not to be overconfident and make a wrong vote.

"You know this movie!" Ning Hao had worked as a director and producer in the entertainment industry for so many years, and it was the first time that he felt that it was so easy to attract investment.

"Of course I know." Chen Zhibin replied.

Not to mention the fact that this movie became the biggest dark horse in the summer vacation after it was released, earning more than 30 billion box office, and the investors made a lot of money.

Even if he didn't earn a penny, Chen Zhibin would definitely choose to invest in this conscientious subject matter. At the end of the movie, he really made him cry.

This alone is unmatched by other movies!
"Then we've decided." Ning Hao said.Up to now, he is still a little uncertain that Chen Zhibin just agreed to invest 2000 million yuan.

After all, I haven't read the script, and I haven't investigated the market, so 2000 million yuan was invested so readily, which is somewhat hasty.

"It's okay, but you also know that I always like to bring money into the team, and the role of Cheng Yong..."

Chen Zhibin didn't continue to talk, but as long as Ning Hao is not stupid, he can definitely understand the meaning of what he said.

Cheng Yong is the leading actor of the film, and also the prototype character adapted from real events.
