Chapter 477 Director Yang went to Hollywood? (twenty two)

In fact, everyone in the film and television industry is familiar with gambling agreements. Many stars and directors have come into contact with them.

To put it simply, the gambling agreement is an agreement between the two parties on what box office results must be achieved in order to receive corresponding rewards, or how much money must be paid to the other party if the box office results are not achieved.

In the film industry, it is a bet on box office, and in the field of TV series, it is a bet on ratings. This is a choice that many directors have no choice but to make if they want to get investment.

Of course, there are also some well-known directors who gamble with their own box office expectations in order to get more production fees and more dividends from investors.

The entertainment industry is such a vanity fair, and everyone is here for profit.

Except for a very small number of idealists, no one, whether it is directors, stars, investors, or film and television companies, wants to throw money into the water.

The purpose of their projects in making movies and TV series is to make money, to make more money.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the existence of such a gambling agreement.

If Yang Yi's works were not of high quality and had an outstanding reputation, with each TV series becoming popular and each movie making a profit, he might also have to face the same pressure as ordinary directors - investors need them to control the movie's box office and investment. Returns give certain guarantees.

Moreover, despite Yang Yi's current invincibility, the box office data of his movies are quite eye-catching. Investors are trying to get money into his hands, but if his future works fail, it only takes one or two movies to have a box office slump. , unable to recoup his capital, he may also have to face these harsh gambling agreements.

Of course, at this stage, Yang Yi has a choice, unless he wants to gamble.

Investors like these who came to inquire about the news couldn't help but feel sorry for Yang Yi when they heard that Yang Yi had not signed a gambling agreement.

32 billion box office!

If you sign a gambling agreement, wouldn't you be able to make a lot of money?

For example, if you sign a three-level gambling agreement with an investor, the first-level dividend plan is for a box office exceeding 20 billion, the higher level dividend plan is for a box office exceeding 30 billion, and the dividend plan is for a box office exceeding [-] billion.
As long as you are brave, most of the more than one billion box office profits may fall into Yang Yi's pocket.

But unfortunately, Yang Yi didn't gamble.

As Cheng Wannian said, he chose stability.

Of course, the more important reason is that Yang Yi's purpose of making movies is different from these people. He belongs to a very small number of idealists.

It is certainly a good thing to make money from making movies, but Yang Yi hopes that his works can be seen and loved by more people. Money is just a side benefit and is the material basis to support him to continue making movies.

In addition, Yang Yi has no idea whether these movies will be a box office hit.

Since he can't predict the future, why should he add so much pressure and trouble to himself?

Therefore, as he said at the celebration banquet held by Mumu Films and investors when the movie "Yangtze River No. 7" exceeded 20 billion, he never thought that "Yangtze River No. 7" would be so popular at the box office, nor did he expect it. "Yangtze River No. 7" can really stand out among so many blockbuster movies during the Spring Festival, and it even overcame other movies to take the No. 1 box office spot during the Spring Festival.

He wants "Yangtze River No. 7" to be released during the Spring Festival. He just hopes that during the Spring Festival, a day of family reunion, the audience can watch some movies that inspire them to love family and love life.

Just like how "Space Exploration Editorial Department" was released during the Spring Festival.

"Yangtze River No. 7" became the final winner of the Spring Festival show because of the love of children and the simple Chinese-style family affection that resonated with the audience.

Of course, there are no losers in this year’s Spring Festival, because the top ten have a box office of over 32 million, the top four have a box office of over a billion, and the top two have even more exaggerated box office, one is 29 billion and the other is [-] billion!
It must be said that the final box office success of "Yangtze River No. 7" is inseparable from the crazy momentum between it and Rong Xin's movies.As it became more popular, more people paid attention to it, and more people wanted to go to the cinema to watch the movie. This finally led to the box office success of this year’s Spring Festival!

Therefore, it is a good move for "Yangtze River No. 7" to be included in the Spring Festival schedule. Many film crews who were afraid of competition and withdrawn from the Spring Festival schedule do not know how much they regret it now.

"Mr. Cheng, I wonder if Director Yang has any new movie plans this year?"

"Mr. Cheng, are Mumu Films planning to film "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"? Have you joined the cast?"

"Mr. Cheng, we have been friends for more than 20 years. You have to introduce me to Director Yang."

At the salon, although Cheng Wannian's bragging made people envious and jealous, because he was an investor in Yang Yi's movies, and Yang Yi basically had no shortage of investment now, many investors who wanted to have a relationship with Yang Yi could only surround Cheng Wannian. Think of ways to. "You guys want to invest in Director Yang's film, but it's too late now!"

Cheng Wannian said with a smile.

Who doesn't know that Yang Yi is now the most popular director in the eyes of the investment circle?
And none of them!

If Yang Yi is introduced again, I am afraid that his investment share, which was not large before Cheng Wannian, will be divided much thinner!
Even if you encounter some strong and capable investors, some of the small investors you have cooperated with before may be eliminated.

Although Damo Pictures has a large business and theater resources, it will not be kicked out, but Cheng Wannian does not want others to share his cake.

Fortunately, there is a good opportunity now to keep these people away from Yang Yi!
"Why did Mr. Cheng say this?"

"Because Yang Yi is not in the country now. He has gone to Hollywood, and a company there has invited him to make a movie."

Cheng Wannian held his airs and shook his head pretending to be regretful.

As soon as he said this, everyone around him showed shocked expressions.

Did Yang Yi go to the United States to develop?
Why is there no news at all online?

Yang Yi is no ordinary little star or director. He is an Oscar-winning director, and the movie that just ended its release took in 32 billion at the box office, ranking No. 20 in Chinese film history. It is very popular!
"Yangtze River No. 7" was a box office hit, and its young star Ye Yujia received great attention. Not only was she sought after by many fans of the same age inside and outside school, but she was also chased and intercepted by reporters downstairs of her home.

It is worth mentioning that Ye Yujia became popular, and the worst offender was Ye Fuming. He was compared with his daughter by reporters. The reporters actually discovered that the total box office of the movies starring Ye Fuming was not as much as that of his daughter Ye Yujia.

The movies Ye Fuming made before were very poor at the box office. Including "The Forbidden City", the total of the seven movies did not reach [-] million. After all, they all came from a literary background.

Later, the two movies "Space Exploration Editorial Department" and "Dear" combined were only 28 billion, so the total was not as high as the box office of "Yangtze River 7"!
As a result, Ye Fuming was ridiculed by reporters online.

Of course, some people praise the Ye family and his daughter, because from a certain perspective, the two of them did support the box office of Yang Yi's movies.

Therefore, Ye Fuming and Ye Yujia are constantly getting film appointments, and many film and television companies are eyeing these two fragrant buns.

Ye Yujia is so popular. There is no reason why reporters should not pay attention to Yang Yi. There is no reason why there is no news about Yang Yi running to Hollywood. There is no reason why prominent people in the industry like them don't know about it.

"Going to Hollywood? When?"

"Is Director Yang going to Hollywood? Will he come back in the future?"

"Mr. Cheng, can you tell us what company it is? Our Chengguo Pictures also has some connections in the United States. Let's see if there is any chance to cooperate with Director Yang."

After everyone calmed down for a short time, they all asked Cheng Wannian about it.

"Director Yang went to Hollywood not long after the Spring Festival. He will definitely come back when he comes back. He said that he wants the world to see our Chinese films and will not give up on such a large domestic film market."

Cheng Wannian said confidently.

20 years ago, Cheng Wannian would not have had this confidence. After all, the moon abroad was still relatively round at that time, and famous actors like Li Mengfei wanted to try their luck in Hollywood.

But now that the domestic market has developed and people in the film and television industry have become more enthusiastic, the allure of foreign countries, especially Hollywood, has naturally become less attractive.

If Yang Yi hadn't explained the reason to them, Cheng Wannian might have wondered why Yang Yi abandoned such a big domestic business to flatter foreigners!
"Mr. He, Director Yang's project is a Hollywood project, and it is an authentic American movie. Desert Pictures also has investments in the United States. If we could cooperate, I would have gone to the United States long ago. How could I come to participate in this salon? .”

Cheng Wannian is also very sorry. His investment in "Yangtze River No. 7" and "Dear" have received generous returns. He has just tasted the benefits. If Yang Yi is willing, he will definitely not give up this opportunity.

Cheng Wannian's speech at the salon was heard by many people, and the entertainment industry has never been a place where secrets can be kept.The next day there was a trending search on the Internet.

#杨伊 was invited to Hollywood to make a movie

Originally, the discussion about Yang Yi on the Internet during this period was still focused on the box office of "Yangtze River No. 7" and the broadcast preview of "Dragon Movie". Now, the public opinion on the Internet has exploded again!
