During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 538: Postpartum Anxiety of Investing in Big Dollars
On May Day, "Iron Man 3" was released.

After resting for a morning, Jing Tian dragged Wei Jin to attend the event.

After all, Robert Downey Jr. is a good friend of theirs, and he has been a lot of trouble for the promotions of many previous movies.

Of course, in order to avoid trouble, the two went to the private cinema of Shanhe Cinema.

I have to say that superhero movies are impeccable, at least in terms of visual effects.

In addition, Hollywood's production methods also make the film's narrative techniques and rhythm quite compact, especially the scene at the end where hundreds of Iron Men collectively appear, which is really exciting.

Of course, the plot does not stand up to scrutiny. Tony Stark, who was originally confident, conceited, and not afraid of death, has actually become a character who is afraid of alien technology, which makes his character quite dim.

Overall, it's a passable popcorn movie.

However, just as Wei Jin mentioned to Fan Bingbing at the beginning, the Chinese had too few roles. Li Bingbing, who accepted the film contract, only had three lines in the more than 100 minutes of plot.

I don’t know if this famous actress has fainted in the toilet from crying.

When leaving, Wei Jin saw the posters of several movies that would be released in May. One of the posters aroused his great interest.

It has to be said that the publicity team of "The Secret of Fuchun Mountain" understands the audience, and the posters are well-intentioned.

In every photo, Lin Chi-lin is the core, showing off her figure.

Especially the one with Tong Dawei, it is so eye-catching.

Tong Dawei has long white hair. He kneels on the ground and hugs Lin Chilin's naked, slender legs. His eyes reveal admiration, but also full of restraint. It is full of pure island style and is absolutely amazing.

Inspired by this, Wei Jin prepared a scene from an island love action movie that night.

Jing Tian, ​​the Golden Horse Film Queen, played her role very well, which made the great director Wei Jin very satisfied. The specific content belongs to the VIP paid project
Just as Wei Jin had predicted, "Iron Man 3" did perform well during the May Day holiday.

The box office on the first day reached 1.1 million, shocking the entire entertainment industry.

You should know that the only movies that have achieved a first-day box office of over 3 million are "Gravity" and "Transformers ".

The worst-case scenario for these two movies is that they both grossed over 10 billion. Could it be possible that Marvel's "Iron Man 3" will also perform such a miracle?
However, the film market has its upper limit after all. If the Tin Man's family is well-fed, almost all other films will suffer.

The first to be hit was "So Young", whose box office, originally approaching 6000 million, plummeted to more than 3000 million. It has been released for 6 days and the box office has closed at 2.8 million.

"A Man's Martial Arts" also suffered a considerable blow, with its single-day box office of over 2.2 million yuan falling to just over million yuan. It has been released for five days and the box office has reached million yuan.

Many production companies in the industry are protesting that China Film Corporation should not release imported films during the May Day period. Even if it really has to be released, it should be after the holiday.

But many smart people have discovered that the upper limit of the domestic film market has actually been raised again, approaching the 2 million mark.

What this means couldn't be more obvious.

Chen Jinfei is such a smart man. After thinking it over again and again, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Xiaoli, this is not about the company. I have a project here. Yes, a Hollywood project. OK, let's wait until Yifei comes back."

Wei Jin didn't know that someone was targeting Liu Yifei. At this moment, he was taking Jing Tian to Wu Jing's dinner party.

In the private dining room, Wei Jin and Jing Tian sat next to each other, opposite them were Wu Jing and Xie Nan.

The four of them had known each other for quite some time and had a very good relationship. There weren't that many rules at the table, and they chatted while eating.

"How is life in the army?"

"Boss Wei, let me tell you, this special forces unit is not a place that ordinary people can stay in."

Wu Jing was also a national martial arts champion. He was considered agile in the entertainment industry. Even Zhen Zidan didn't take him seriously. But when he talked about this experience, he still sighed: "When I first went there, I bragged to them, but I was taught a lesson."

"Oh? Please elaborate?"

Wei Jin couldn't help but feel a little curious, Jing Tian also looked gossipy, and Wu Jing didn't hide it and told the story.

Things like "climbing 15 floors barehanded in 4 seconds", "20km cross-country running with weights", and "500 push-ups before bed".
It sounds so fucking scary, it can be called devilish training.

"Great, Old Wu, with your energy, I'm optimistic about you."

Wei Jin looked at Wu Jing, whose skin had obviously become several shades darker, and he was really impressed.

After discussing new ideas last year, he began training in the army. Except for the filming of "The Raid 2", he basically stayed there for nearly eight months. Is there any other star in the circle who can do this?

He had already finished the script last month, but unfortunately, the incident in Shuzhong happened and he had to rush to provide assistance, which delayed it until now.

"Hey, Mr. Wei, you and Nan Nan are the only ones who think highly of me."

Listening to Wu Jing's self-deprecating explanation and looking at Xie Nan's helpless expression, Wei Jin realized that they had already contacted the optical fiber company before.

Because during the Spring Festival, Fiber Optic launched the "Fiber Optic-Actor-New Director Plan" to support and discover new directors.

Wei Jin heard from Lao Wang that he had signed a cooperation agreement with Xu Zheng and Deng Chao.

Unfortunately, "Wolf Fang" had previously suffered serious losses. In the eyes of Wang Changtian and Guangfa's evaluation team, Wu Jing did not have investment potential.

After all, among those who have transformed themselves into directors, only a few have achieved success, such as Xu Cairen, Xu Guangtou, and Zhao Yanzi, and most of them are professionally trained, and their film themes are relatively pleasing.

In comparison, military themes and action actors like Wu Jing are really hard to convince people. After all, film is always a high-risk industry.

At this moment, Wei Jin couldn't help but take a bite of the food and mourn for Lao Wang in his heart.

"Old Wu, I think there's nothing wrong with the script. Now let's talk about the investment. Is the budget ready?"

This undoubtedly showed his determination to invest. Wu Jing was instantly excited: "Boss Wei, I have asked someone to do it. It is estimated to be around 8000 million."

"What do you think about the investment share?"

"What does Mr. Wei mean?"

Wu Jing was a little unsure of Wei Jin's thoughts, so he opened his mouth to test the waters.

"Don't think so complicated. I just think the project is good. Don't you plan to invest in it?"

Wei Jin would definitely put interests first when dealing with old-timers like Xu Guangtou, but he would still treat a down-to-earth person like Wu Jing as a friend.

This movie "Wolf Warrior" had a box office of over 5 million in the past. Now that Shanhe Media is in charge, it is certain to make money. Wei Jin doesn't want to take advantage of it too much. "Boss Wei, to be honest, I can only take out million yuan. If I want more, I will have to mortgage my house."

Wei Jin nodded to show his understanding. In fact, after "The Raid" and "SPL 2", Wu Jing has received quite a few related invitations, but he has been focusing on his dream and has no time to make money through commercial performances. This million is probably his last remaining fortune.

"Okay, then I'll give you 30% of your director's salary and actor's salary plus the 10 million. How about that?"

"Okay, let's do as Mr. Wei says."

Wu Jing did not hesitate. If he wanted to pursue his dream, he had to have the courage to pay the bill. Besides, hadn't Wei Jin already taken the biggest risk?
"Also, I have another request."

Wu Jing and Xie Nan looked at each other and said at the same time: "Please speak, Mr. Wei."

Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, Wei Jin tapped the table, "I want to have the priority investment right for your future movies, no less than 50%."

"Hey, there is such a good thing? No problem."

Although he was a little confused, Wu Jing seemed to be afraid that Wei Jin would go back on his word, so he agreed without hesitation and raised his glass immediately:
"Boss Wei, this is a toast to you. Thank you for your support."

Wei Jin clinked his glasses together, "Haha, happy cooperation."

The three-day holiday passed in a flash.

In the film market, "Iron Man 3" still dominates the market.

In just three days after its release, this superhero movie raked in 3 million yuan at the box office thanks to the super-high ticket prices of IMAX3D and 3.1D.

However, at this time, the news of the overseas release of "Iron Man 3" spread back to China, and instantly attracted the attention of mainland audiences and netizens.

Because no one expected that this movie would be divided into two versions, the overseas version and the domestic special version.

What is the domestic special edition?
To put it bluntly, they are treating domestic audiences as fools and harvesting them!

You know, before the film was released, the producers never said that there would be two versions, and even mentioned Li Bingbing's wonderful performance in the film on countless occasions.

The public opinion at that time was in full swing, and countless movie fans and audiences were looking forward to the domestic big stars to participate in the superhero series. After all, this was an unprecedented breakthrough.

Even though it had already been discovered that Li Bingbing had very few roles, everyone reluctantly accepted this reality.

But now it seems that even these few small shots are being reluctantly released, and the overseas version does not have them at all.

What does that mean? Will Chinese actors in the film affect the global box office? This is a blatant insult!
The audience and movie fans were outraged and felt that their intelligence was insulted and their emotions were played with.

For a time, not only the producers Disney and Paramount were boycotted, but Li Bingbing was also pushed to the forefront.

Countless netizens questioned on Weibo why she wanted to star in such a movie.

Sometimes Wei Jin didn’t know whether there was really a destiny between these big flowers.

While Li Bingbing was still being attacked by the crowd, another piece of information came from Hollywood, which instantly caused a sensation.

"According to Hollywood reports, Warner Bros. has teamed up with Legendary Pictures to reboot the monster movie "Godzilla". The film will be directed by Gareth Edwards, and Chinese actress Fan Bingbing has been confirmed to play the leading female role!"

"According to official news from Warner, the production cost of Godzilla is 1.6 million US dollars, and filming is about to start. It is expected to enter the domestic market next year."

As soon as the news came out, the Internet and the circle were in an uproar.

Although I know that humans won’t have too many roles in monster movies, the role of the female lead will not be less than ten minutes, right?
Moreover, with a production cost of 1.6 million US dollars, "Godzilla" will definitely be released worldwide, and its top resources are definitely not inferior to "Pacific Rim"!

There are no fools in the entertainment industry. Everyone knows that such top resources cannot be obtained by Fan Bingbing alone.

There is no doubt that this is another work of Wei Jin. Looking across the country, he is the only one who has such ability.

Many people in the circle are sighing that they still have to cling to powerful people. How many Hollywood resources has Fan Bingbing obtained over the years by relying on Wei Jin?
Especially big actresses like Zhang Ziyi, Li Bingbing, Xu Cairen, etc., they were all extremely jealous and couldn't understand at all, how were they worse than that slutty vixen?
In fact, not only outsiders are jealous, even Shanhe Media’s own artists are extremely jealous.

Yang Mi now regrets not listening to Wei Jin and taking on the role of "Tiny Times".

It has been more than half a year, and the man has never taken the initiative to ask me out. Could it be that he has really fallen out of favor?

Thinking of this, Yang Mi went back to her room and changed into a black hollow tight jumpsuit.

Lying on the bed, Yang Mi bit her red lips, posed in an extremely seductive posture, took a photo and sent it out. She also added a soft clip sound:

"Brother, I miss you."

Wei Jin had no time to pay attention to the ding-dong sounds on his cell phone as he was being interrogated at the moment.

"Okay, I knew it. You must have been bewitched by that vixen. You dared to flirt with her when you were in North America. Do you really want to bring her home?"

Da Meiyu's eyes widened, and she looked like she would not give up until she got an explanation.

She had just returned to China with her son in a low-key manner, and the next moment she saw Fan Bingbing on the headlines. She had only seen this kind of praise on Jing Tian and Liu Yifei.

"Sister Yuanyuan, listen to me, I am really just taking care of the company's artists, hiss."

Wei Jin took a deep breath as he spoke, because he had the upper hand in Da Meiyuan's hand. "Sister Yuanyuan, be gentle. If you ruin our happiness for the rest of our lives, we'll lose it."

"Humph, you bad guy, you're the culprit for all the time, you're out there messing around with other girls."

Although he said that, Da Meiyuan's slender hand finally loosened. This made Wei Jin realize that the beauty was timid, so he hugged her slightly plump waist to show his loyalty.

"Sister Yuanyuan, it really was just a coincidence. Think about it, in these years, besides you guys, who else have I made movies for? Don't you understand my feelings?"

"Humph, who knows what you're thinking? Maybe you've already despised me for being old and ugly."

Hearing this, Wei Jin knew that Da Meiyuan might have some postpartum anxiety, so he used his hands to slightly press the two of them together, with a sincere look on his face:
"Sister Yuanyuan, you look only about 25 or 26 years old now, so young and tender, how can you be old?"

"really?"

No matter how many words he said, they were all pale. Wei Jin expressed his feelings directly with actions. He immediately kissed the beauty's tender lips and began to wander around with his big hands.

Since January, Gao Yuanyuan has not had any intimacy with Wei Jin again, and they were not allowed to have sex during the confinement period. In total, they have not eaten meat for more than four months.

So at this moment, even if it was just a simple hug and kiss, with some hand movements, she was completely unable to resist, and her whole body seemed to have no strength left.

After about a few minutes, Gao Yuanyuan's round face, which had not yet recovered, was already flushed, and her beautiful eyes were filled with layers of mist.

That night, Wei Jin worked very hard and finally vented Da Meiyuan's jealousy.
