Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 152 Can actually be a free prostitute

Since everyone wants to invest in their own films so much.

Then give everyone a chance.

First of all, the investment in this film is too big, 500 million US dollars. In its previous life, it was not a hit with a global box office of more than 7000 billion. Even if it was sold to Sony for distribution, Sony would not get much in the end. How much, six to seventy million US dollars.

You can't make much money.

Secondly, I am also a little unsure about this film. After all, it is the film with the largest scenes and the most ensemble casts that I have ever directed. Can it be successful?How successful can it be?This is all unknown.

It would be nice to share more.

Even if the risk is transferred out.

If the first part is successful, the second part, Venus, will get more shares.

Anyway, it’s not a loss!

Take other people's money and make your own movie.

Learn from the big Hollywood studios.

of course!

Even if we want to give them more shares, after all, they want more shares, and they are not asking them to invest in them.

The conditions are different from before.

"We Daystar can take out another 20.00% share."

"However, this 20.00% share will have a premium of 50.00%."

"Do you still want it?"

The voice just fell.

Huo Wenxi from Yinghuang smiled and raised his hand, "Yes! Why not? We Yinghuang want another ten percent!"

"If you want [-]%, do you still have our share? I want [-]% too."

One by one they started grabbing it again.

Fortunately, the difference this time is not too big.

In the end, we succeeded in reaching a share acceptable to everyone.

Among them, Yinghuang got the most, with a full 15.00%.

after the meeting.

Huo Wenxi even went to Gu Ming to chat.

"I heard from Director Gu that this film is going to be shot on Hong Kong Island?"

"Make a call when the time comes. We, Yinghuang, will definitely cooperate fully. Moreover, Mr. Yang has been talking about having a meal with you."

"It's easy to say, I will inevitably disturb you when the time comes."

"By the way, I no longer have the main role in this film. After all, it is for global box office, and many Hollywood actors have to be hired. However, there are still some supporting roles available. I don't know if Mr. Huo is interested, but the role may not be too many."

The other party took so much share at a premium.

Gu Ming is not a person who refuses to admit his mistakes.

Favors that should be earned should still be earned.

Immediately gave some benefits.

Hearing this, Huo Wen smiled like a flower, and he actually had a look that was no less than that of a star.

"Director Gu, what you said is too polite."

"Your movie can earn over [-] million U.S. dollars in the North American market. What's wrong with the small character?"

"They are happy to be able to act in Director Gu's play."

"I'll thank Director Gu on their behalf first. I'll send Director Gu a list of Yinghuang's artists another day and you can see who is suitable."

"Okay!" Gu Ming smiled and nodded.

"Director Gu, don't forget about us Huayi. We don't think our role is too small."

At this time, Huayi Wang Zhonglei seemed to have heard the conversation between Gu Ming and Huo Wenxi, and came over jokingly.

On his right hand was a young actress.

She looks quite like Xiaojiabiyu, but she is not small at all. She can even be said to be quite wealthy.

Gu Ming recognized Huo Tieyan at a glance.

Is it just that she joined Huayi so early?
Gu Ming really has some impression of this matter. I remember it was in 04!

But after thinking about it, it's normal.

Li Bingbing, Jin Suo, all the young actresses from the beginning of Huayi in the previous life were scouted for me, and Zhou Xun, who would join in the future, was also scouted in advance.

Without Shuang Bing, they would naturally have to train others, so it would not be abnormal to select Huo Tiyan in advance.

His ability to deal with people is quite good, and he is a professional counterpart to Huayi.

"Oh?" Seeing Gu Ming's eyes lingering on Huo Tieyan for several seconds, Wang Zhonglei immediately let go of Huo Tieyan's arm, and then introduced to Gu Ming with a smile.

"Director Gu, this is our new artist in Huayi, Huo Tieyan."

"See if there is a suitable role for Xiao Huo!"

"It doesn't matter how young she is, she just wants to be in your movie."

"Yes! Director Gu is my favorite director, bar none." Huo Tieyan actually took out a pen and paper from her pocket, "Director Gu, can you sign your name for me?"

This move shocked Wang Zhonglei.

Good guy, you are already prepared!
Not bad, a child can be taught.

"Okay, as for the role, I'll see if there is an opening by then. If so, it will be you." Gu Ming said while signing.

This was not because he was interested in Huo Tieyan, but because he bought Huayi a [-]% share of the sweetness.

"Thank you, Director Gu."

"I can't thank you enough."

Taking back the signature with both hands, Huo Tiyan looked at Gu Ming with bright eyes, "Director Gu, can I treat you to a meal and thank you?"

"That's not necessary. I can't give him a big role. Let's wait until there is a good role."

Gu Ming refused in a few words.

After chatting casually with Wang Zhonglei for a few words, someone else came over. Gu Ming could only deal with the new chat partner.

Wang Zhonglei said goodbye and left.

Gu Ming inadvertently saw from the corner of his eye that Wang Zhonglei was no longer holding arms with Huo Tieyan.I don’t know if there is a gap between the two of them, or if it’s just for myself.

"Hi!"

Gu Ming sighed slightly in his heart and continued chatting with others.

……

After the bosses and heads of the various film and television companies who arrived have left.

Li Xiaoping found Gu Ming with a smile.

He handed a report to Gu Ming.

"Good news!"

He took it and looked down.

That's not good news.

As these shares are distributed.

Daystar’s 30.00% share doesn’t cost much at all!
Do not!
There is no need to pay at all!

之前那些溢价20.00%五的份额应收一千680七万五千美元，后面溢价50.00%让出的20.00%份额则是一千350万美元。

This adds up to about 3000 million U.S. dollars, and there is also 900 million U.S. dollars from China Film and Western Film.

That adds up to less than 4000 million.

You can occupy this 30.00% share without paying any money.

However, consider whether there will be any tax problems in the end.

And if you can't tell the difference, it really doesn't sound very good.

Don't think of this as a free prostitute.

Let Daystar also come up with $600 million.

Although this money may not be able to cover the salary of one's director and screenwriter, it will completely eliminate the risk of tax evasion.

If you don’t lack that little money, just pay more taxes.

It's time to make a contribution.

A good reputation is quite important.

……

Return home after work.

Yan Danchen hugged Gu Ming's arm enthusiastically.

"How is it today?"

"Very good! In the end, I gave up more shares. I have a feeling that I can start making money even before it's released."

"Tell me, what are your intentions?"

"What a different kind of enthusiasm today."

"I almost thought you had changed people. Is there a goblin underneath your skin? Picture."

"Can't I be enthusiastic?" Yan Danchen hugged him tighter and pressed his face against Gu Ming's shoulder.

"It's really okay? If it's okay, if you say it again and want me to agree, you'll have to pay more. Now, I can still agree to you directly."

"Okay, then I said it." Yan Danchen smiled, "They are still my students. They want to act in your play. It is unrealistic to include them all. You are not filming in the capital, and the round-trip tickets are quite expensive. Give a few Just a small supporting role, even a few lines?"

"Okay!" How could Gu Ming refuse such a small thing?
Not only did he not refuse, he was also generous and generous.

"You decide which disciple you want to give to you. I will give you a position as a producer. As long as the role is suitable, you can make arrangements as you go."

"No, let's study together!"

"With such a big investment in a film, what if the characters are not suitable? It would be best if we could arrange a few characters without affecting the film."

With that said, Yan Danchen went to get a copy of the script and started studying it with Gu Ming.

"If you arrange for the character who performs card magic to be filmed in Hong Kong Island, you can choose the seven of diamonds card for this character, and then the magician uses a romantic method to turn the building behind into a seven of diamonds pattern. After that, you will instantly fall in love with him. Give me the girl’s role?”

"Are you sure?" Gu Ming raised his eyebrows, "This one has some scenes like that! Of course, there is no need to kiss, but you still have to wear underwear."

"What if someone says that you actually created such a character for your students? What are your intentions?"

"They are freshmen after all."

"Then forget it." Yan Danchen smacked his lips and shook his head, "I'm not just afraid of people gossiping, I'm also afraid that they won't let go and it will affect the quality of the film."

"Then let's take this. You specifically marked him as a foreign actor. He exposed a couple in a high-end restaurant in Shenghai. Can he be replaced by a young couple?"

"That's okay. It really doesn't work. Young boyfriend and girlfriend, this is a small problem. What else?"

"No more." Yan Danchen kissed Gu Ming, "Two characters are enough. Any more will affect the film."

"Really not?"

"I really don't want it anymore. By the way, how did the magic trick in your script change? Why did the building behind it turn into a seven of diamonds? Did you make it up?"

"What are you saying, why am I making this up?"

"Actually, it's really simple."

Speaking of which, Gu Ming had nothing to do and prepared such a deck of cards.

He immediately took it out, put it in front of Yan Danchen's eyes, flipped through it, and asked, "Which one did you see?"

"Look again, which one is it?"

"It's still the seven of diamonds."

"There's something wrong with this card." Yan Danchen took the card and looked at it. He found that there were several diamonds stacked together, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"It's so simple!"

"If I only let you see it once, will you still doubt it?"

"That won't happen."

"That's it." Gu Ming took back the cards.

……

the next day.

Yan Danchen walked into the classroom with a beautiful face.
