Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 147 Spend what you have to spend

Finalize the release date of "The Intouchables".

Los Angeles' Big Dipper Entertainment no longer needs Gu Ming to do anything.

I don’t want to invest in another movie or anything.

All we have to do is wait for "The Intouchables" to be released.

No way, Gu Ming isn't that rich either.

The money on the books of Beidou Star Entertainment is only enough to run the company.

Gu Ming didn't want to sell the stocks in his name, and it would be a bit of a loss if he sold them now, not to mention the domestic Venus, which would have to leave the funds needed for new works and Tiangong Colors.

Go to domestic financing, um...

"The Intouchables" has not yet been released, and no one knows the final box office. Now it is more difficult to raise funds.

No matter what, we have to wait for the box office results of "The Intouchables" to be released. If it can really meet expectations, then we can strive for better conditions for the next work, whether it is financing or negotiating distribution.

Since there is nothing to worry about anymore.

In addition, it is now March, and it has been almost two months since I left the country, so it is time to go back.

Gu Ming left Los Angeles.

After flying back to Beijing International Airport, Gu Ming put on a mask after being inspected.

It’s not to prevent sandstorms. To be honest, before the construction of the three-north protective forest, the sandstorms in Beijing have been relatively heavy in recent years.

But it is mainly concentrated in March, April, December and January of the following year.

It's not yet time for Gu Ming to return to China.

After leaving the airport, Gu Ming found the Cadillac that Yan Danchen said on the phone had only been used for less than a month.

This car is a bulletproof car purchased in the name of Daystar after I couldn't hold back my wealth last time and wanted to be exposed to the media.

"Excuse!"

"It's really thick!"

After slamming the car door hard, Gu Mingle said happily, "My future safety is guaranteed."

"It can block AK bullets, grenades, etc. If the bad guys in the country have stronger weapons, there will be no choice but to blame the bad luck." Yan Danchen said, and then couldn't help but complain, " It just doesn’t turn on enough to make it cool.”

"It's better to go for a drive in a convertible."

"What kind of convertible are you riding in? Be careful of sailing like a boat for thousands of years." Gu Ming was not very interested in luxury cars and sports cars.

Now, not in the future, wealthy people known to the whole country will still drive around the streets every day, or go to eat at some roadside stalls, for fear that they will not meet anyone desperate.

Zhang Jun was killed just the year before last, Zhou Xiangyang was arrested just last year, and there was Wang Lihua. This guy was active in the capital. The past two years were the peak period for his crimes, and a celebrity fell in love with him. I almost died in his hands.

If we want this kind of thing to decrease, we have to wait until Skynet surveillance is rolled out on a large scale and people become richer and richer.

This is not something Gu Ming can change alone.

All he can do is do his best.

Oh……

Speaking of which, there is one more thing.

Gu Ming no longer bothered to chat with Yan Danchen and immediately called Li Xiaoping, "How much money is there in the company's account? Not counting offshore companies."

"5000 million. This is the account after investing more than 2000 million in Tiangong Color. The other 700 million US dollars was used to buy foreign equipment and went to offshore companies."

"The dramas produced by our company are basically hits, and the advertising revenue is quite good. As long as you broadcast them, you can collect money. There should be a lot of revenue this year."

"When the box office revenue of "Hero" is divided, there will still be about 6000 to [-] million." Li Xiaoping's voice was still full of excitement, "Mr. Gu, are you going to change the company's building?"

"Let's just buy the whole building. It's completely affordable. Daystar is also the leading film and television company in the country. It's always in such a small place and it doesn't look good." "There is no such thing as a top company in the industry. Look."

"Why buy so many buildings? Are you afraid that you won't be able to afford it in the future?" Gu Ming pouted, but he was too embarrassed to refuse.

"There are indeed a lot of people." In addition to the artists, there are also assistants, makeup artists, screenwriters, etc., plus contracted crew members and distribution departments, there are hundreds of people.

"The company's space is really not enough."

"Then buy another floor. Don't worry, I'll build you a headquarters building in a few years."

"Okay!" Li Xiaoping said cheerfully, then she realized that it was Gu Ming who took the initiative to call her, and asked curiously, "Mr. Gu, why are you asking this? Is it for a new work?"

"No, you take out 300 million, donate 1000 million to the health-related departments in the capital, and donate 300 million to Chang'an."

"So many?" Li Xiaoping was also a little surprised.

"We will make money after we spend it. We must spend what we should spend." If big companies such as Midea hadn't also donated this amount to avoid being too presumptuous, Gu Ming could have donated more.

It feels painful to spend so much money, but the added value it brings may be able to be recovered in the end.

If it doesn't work, why not have a name?

Being in the film and television industry, having a good reputation is no better than what?

"Okay, that's it." Gu Ming had already thought about such a big thing and would not change it just because Li Xiaoping said more than one sentence.

But hearing the determination in Gu Ming's tone, Li Xiaoping stopped trying to persuade him.

"I'll contact you to take care of this matter."

"But when the donation ceremony comes, Gu Mingqian will have to show up in person!"

"Okay." Gu Ming nodded and hung up the phone.

"Big rich man!" Yan Danchen glanced at Gu Ming, but there was no dissatisfaction in his eyes because Gu Ming donated such a large sum of money. He was more appreciative, "I didn't expect you to donate so much. You really have a lot of heart." Kindhearted.”

"What is this called?"

"My heart is more kind to you!"

"Then I'll go back and see how kind you are. It happens that you can't go out to play much, so just stay at home."

"I came back this time just to accompany you."

……

Been with me several times.

In the afternoon, the two sat on the sofa and watched TV together.

No matter how well it was filmed, Zhang Beard's "The Swordsman" is still good in terms of theme song and ending song, with a sense of heroism.

After looking at it, the phone rang. It was Gu Changwei calling, "I was at the door of your house, and the bodyguard stopped me. Let me go in."

"Call him."

After a while, Gu Changwei came in dusty.

The whole person was filled with an indescribable joy.

"Lao Gu, what's wrong? Are you in love again? I'll go tell Sister Wen Li."

"Fuck you, I'm an honest person!" Gu Changwei emphasized, took out a script from his bag and slapped it on the table.

"You don't need to write a script this time. I found a very suitable script and I want to film it."

"This time I came specifically to seek investment from you."

"Oh? Let me be healthy." Gu Ming looked down and saw that the title of the film was not long, just two words.

　I have something to do today. I will write a chapter of 2000 words first, and then I will update 4000 words in the evening. I will finish writing 6000 words.
