Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

"I also believe that you can definitely do it!" Gu Ming complimented the other party somewhat guiltily.

Guilty indeed.

People are busy, and they have to pay attention to so many things. In addition, Jiang Wen's filming is too slow. In fact, Gu Ming has never watched Jiang Wen's "One Step Away".

I don’t know what he will look like in the photo.

Will it become more foggy?

but……

With the final investment of 300 million yuan, even if the commercials could be recouped even if the film had less than 60 to 700 million yuan at the box office, it would still be a loss. Gu Ming felt that this film was bound to lose money.

If you can recoup your costs through Actor Theater Distribution, other investors will be lucky to you.

Who asked you to invest in Jiang Wen? Treat a small loss as a win and be done with it. At least you didn't lose all your money.

"Fortunately, I was not asked to be a producer, and I had few votes." Gu Ming was somewhat thankful.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I will be ruined.

The value of being a producer is no longer there.

"Why do you feel that your words are a bit false? You have no confidence in me?" Jiang Wen smacked his lips.

"You don't have confidence in yourself, why else would you care about my opinion?" Gu Ming asked with a smile.

Jiang Wen, who asked the question, felt that the answer was very reasonable. He was speechless and said, "Get ready to celebrate" and went to greet other guests.

Gu Ming smiled and shook his head, and sat down with Yan Danchen.

"I think this movie is a bit dangerous." Yan Danchen whispered as soon as he sat down, "I'm afraid you will lose money."

"Hey, how did you analyze it?" Gu Ming was a little interested, sitting sideways and asked curiously.

"Have you forgotten what I do? After all, I am also a producer of many films. I still have the ability to analyze a film."

"Ok?"

"Okay, I haven't seen this movie yet." Yan Danchen smiled, "But I know how to read people. Jiang Wen is so confident that the movie will probably be on the hook. The more confident he is, the worse it will be."

"Besides, I don't know Jiang Wen, and I don't know you as my pillow person? If this film makes a lot of money, will you not want the title of producer? If you want it, will Jiang Wen not give it to you?"

"What you said makes me look so treacherous." Gu Ming curled his lips, "You always think that I thought this film would be a loss, so I didn't add the name of the producer. Think about it from another angle, could it be because Will it be a loss if the film doesn’t let me be the producer?”

"Sometimes, a small suggestion may bring a different ending to the film."

"And I, Gu Ming's fans, are not joking."

Nowadays, Gu Ming is the number one director in China. In addition, he has won so many international awards, which greatly satisfies everyone's sense of honor. There are many passers-by fans.

The films he has produced have never been bad, and they can all be rated at least seven points, so when there is such a group of people who want to watch a movie, they will check to see if the producer has Gu Ming.

If you have concerns, choose to care, if you don't care, don't say anything.

"Okay, Director Gu is this." Yan Danchen didn't want to argue with Gu Ming about this, so he just gave him a thumbs up and it was done.

"That's pretty cool."

Jiang Wen on the stage was telling interesting things about the shooting, while Gu Ming and Yan Danchen were chatting there.

After the film was officially played, the two of them watched the film together with concentration.

Well, this concentration is just the beginning.

It didn't take long for his brows to wrinkle, and then the frown became tighter and tighter.

By the time he saw the second half, Yan Danchen had already begun to complain to Gu Ming, "It's so distracting. I haven't fully enjoyed watching the previous plot, so I immediately moved on to the next one. Moreover, each one is so full that I feel like I can't tell them apart." I’m confused, I don’t know what I want to say.”

"If I were to evaluate it, it would fall apart in just four words." "If you can't speak, that's called elegance!" Gu Ming pretended to criticize.

"Ah, yes, yes!"

"It feels like he wants to stuff too many things." Gu Ming sighed. He stuffed more than the original film in his previous life. How to evaluate it, "I tried to make a real one, but it ended up costing you three thousand lives."

"Really?"

"Neon's fine sword that was refined over time will cost you three thousand lives. It was invented by Da Wenxi in "Domestic Lingling Lacquer". It combines ten weapons into one, each of which can be used independently."

"Okay Wen Xi, I understand what you mean." Yan Danchen covered his mouth and laughed.

In fact, it's not just Gu Ming and his wife, many people are also frowning, feeling that they can't understand, and some who like it are passionately in love, which can be seen by looking at their expressions.

"It seems that Jiang Wen is very attuned to the audience." Yan Danchen looked around and continued chatting with Gu Ming.

"It's quite similar to Quentin." Gu Ming nodded, "Both have a group of very appetizing audiences, they love it to death."

"What if you don't love me?"

"If you don't love, it may be torture." And these people may still be the majority in the audience.

Of course, even so, after all, Jiang Wen's last film was so good. In this film, he roped in Liang Jiahui and the original cast of "Let the Bullets Fly", which is still very attractive.

The box office on the first day was more than 90 million.

In four days, the box office exceeded 300 million.

But Jiang Wen was stunned when he called Gu Ming.

"Look, it's 300 million in four days. No matter how bad it is, you still have to get 1 billion when the movie is released, right? You can make a small profit of 100 million at the box office alone."

"Lao Gu, do you regret investing just a little bit?"

"That's very regretful." Gu Ming did regret it. He regretted that he had invested too much and should have invested less.

Although the current situation is good, Jiang Wen is overdrawing the audience's good image of "Let the Bullets Fly".

If you guessed it right, 80% of the box office of this movie is not as good as the previous one.

Unless the audience's taste has changed, then admit it.

Just like Cheng Yaojin's three-axe, after the first few days, the box office fell off a cliff, and Jiang Wen's heart dropped.

Was it a pirated copy?
But after making several phone calls, there was no news in this regard. I asked the other party why, but no one could tell me why.

He had no choice but to go online himself and read the comments from netizens.

Then I was confused by the comments that made up the majority of criticism and abuse.

Don’t buy it?

Jiang Wen was stunned for a moment, and then returned to normal. If you don't want to buy it, don't buy it. I enjoyed taking the photos and watching them, and there are actually many people who like them. Just think of it as being taken down by them.

As soon as the computer was turned off, Jiang Wen simply went to bed.

After the road show is over, I wonder if the box office will exceed 500 million in the end, and then think about the investment of 300 million.

The only thing in Jiang Wen's mind was, "Go to Daystar to find Director Gu Ming!"

Arriving directly at Daystar, Gu Ming happened to be doing his usual job at the company. Jiang Wen sat down on the sofa and said, "I think you must still regret investing in me."

Jiang Wen made a gesture of wiping his face and said, "I took the photo very well. Why do you think it's like this?"
