Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

"Rockefeller?"

"No."

"George Peabody?"

"Hoover." Seeing that Gu Ming had been hanging around the founder of the consortium, Xiao Lizi couldn't help but tell the answer.

"Hoover?" Gu Ming joked, "Is he the Hoover who chose laissez-faire and saw Black Thursday and the biggest economic crisis in human history during his term?"

"Why don't you choose a positive character in this biopic?"

"It's that Hoover from the FBI." Xiao Lizi explained with a twitch in his mouth.

"Oh, I see."

"what do you think?"

"It's okay." Gu Ming said.

"good?"

"It's really okay." Gu Ming was also helpless. He couldn't say that he was not optimistic about it, so he could only say, "Biopics are indeed popular, and there is a kind of biopic that is actually more popular."

"For example, if you speak out for gays or minorities, I think you know the reason why I say that, right? You should have a deeper understanding of that trend than I do."

"Yeah." Xiao Lizi nodded thoughtfully and looked at Gu Ming with hope in his eyes, "Do you have such a script?"

"Lincoln."

"Oh! I can't play Lincoln with my face shape."

"So I don't have any other ideas." Gu Ming spread his hands, "Don't think so much. Let's wait until "Manchester by the Sea" is finished competing for the Olympics."

"Too."

Why are you thinking so much?

The haze in Xiao Lizi's heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

Gu Ming wrote the script himself, directed it himself, and even gave up pursuing the box office for the sake of winning awards. What else was he worried about?

Maybe I can win the Best Actor title with just this one move!

"Then wish us success?" Xiao Lizi stretched out his hand.

"Wish us success!" Gu Ming held hands with him.

After the film was completed, Gu Ming returned to China for a week and then came to the United States to completely finish the post-production of "Manchester by the Sea"!

"This year I don't have to run around anymore for the time being."

Sitting on the international flight and looking out the window, Gu Ming's desire to buy a private jet resurfaced.

It’s impossible not to buy it!
Not worthy of his status.

And buying a plane can indeed save you a lot of time.

Ever since, after returning to China, Gu Ming went to Daystar early the next morning and found Li Xiaoping, "I'll give you a thing. The company is getting bigger and bigger, and it's not good to take flights. Buy a private plane." Let’s take a plane, I think that Boeing 747 is pretty good, I’ll leave it to you to build one!”

"it should be no problem?"

"No problem!" Daystar also holds many high-quality assets, such as part of Amazon and Apple stocks, which are held in the name of the company.

Not bad money!
Now those two companies are skyrocketing.

Especially for Apple, once the Fruit 4 was released, it simply redefined mobile phones, and its stock skyrocketed.

Buying a plane won’t have any impact!

"Okay, that's settled. Also, remember to keep a low profile. It's best not to spread this matter before getting the plane."

The older one is in the arena, the less courageous he becomes.

Gu Ming still didn't really want to make the whole city famous about his wealth.

Just do it secretly.

The main business of movies can be high-profile, but in other aspects, we must keep in mind the ending of the old king and the old horse in the previous life. No matter how you got your wealth, once your wealth reaches a certain level, it is a kind of original sin. You have to keep a low profile!
"I understand." Li Xiaoping understood.

"That's good!"

After giving this order, Gu Ming resumed his life of checking accounts every few months.

Maybe it was because he simply couldn't hide the news that he was in Daystar.

Less than two hours.

Li Shishi came over and said, "Mr. Gu, Wang Baoqiang wants to see you."

"Forehead?"

"What did he do when he saw me?"

"I said I have something very important that I want to ask you for help with."

"Let him come in." Gu Ming also became curious.

The two knew each other early enough, but Wang Baoqiang really didn't ask for help from him.

When I left my mobile phone number, I took the initiative to call him.

When I join the company, I rarely come to ask for roles or anything like that. I am quite active when giving gifts, as if I am afraid of causing trouble to myself.

Today he actually asked me for help!
"Interesting! Interesting!"

Gu Ming knocked on the table playfully twice, and saw Wang Baoqiang walking in with big white teeth. He pointed at the sofa, "Baoqiang! You rarely come to see me! What kind of difficulty did you encounter today?"

"I don't know what to say." Wang Baoqiang scratched his head, "I have acted in a movie, "People on the Road", Mr. Gu, do you know?"

"I know! The box office of about 40 million is not bad, but the film's schedule was really not chosen well. A film about Spring Festival travel was released in the summer. I don't know what the producer thought, otherwise the box office might not be good. It can be higher.”

"What's wrong? Is it related to this movie?" Gu Ming guessed something.

"Yes." Wang Baoqiang nodded, "Didn't Xu Zheng and I act in this film together? He wrote a script and wanted to make a sequel. I think this film is very promising and the cost is not high. Thirty million is enough, do you think the company can invest in this project?"

"Are you also the project producer?" Gu Ming asked.

"Xu Zheng has been begging me for a long time, let me come and talk to you and recommend this project." Wang Baoqiang was a bit incapable of lying in front of Gu Ming. He avoided his eyes for a moment and then said, "I found a lot of people, but no one was willing to invest. , those who are willing to invest also ask for a director, but Xu Zheng wants to be a director, but he has not found investment until now."

"Daystar also came here to look for it, and it got stuck at the first level."

"Haha..." Gu Ming didn't think there was anything wrong with the company's approach.

This project seems really unreliable.

Acting and directing are not popular at the moment.

Even if it is popular, you, Xu Zheng, are really not a big deal in the film industry. There are many actors better than you. You want to be a director as soon as you come up and invest in your projects, which most people will not be willing to invest in.

Thirty million is indeed not a big investment project.

But the total box office of your last film was only over 30 million, and the cost of this film is 30 million. Why?
Is this your debut novel?

It can only be said that the trends of some films do not follow common sense.

I'm afraid even Xu Zheng himself didn't expect this film to achieve such a big success.

"Okay, if you just say that, I can't make a decision. Call Xu Zheng over and let her explain his thoughts!"

"Just outside the company, Mr. Gu, please read the script first." Wang Baoqiang handed the script to Gu Ming, walked out and made a phone call.

After a while, the bald man who seemed to be shrewd walked in.

After Gu Ming finished speaking, he looked at the script by himself.

After reading it, he slapped the script on the table, pointed at the title of the script and said in a deep voice.

""People on an embarrassing journey in Thailand".

"Do you have the right to develop the sequel to Lost in Journey?" (End of Chapter)
