Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 539 Reward, Perpetual Motion Machine
Early August.

Huayi quietly sold off several of its film towns at a low price.

On the same day, Huayi's stock price fell again.

If we only look at the stock price, the net worth of the Wang brothers has shrunk by more than ten small goals again.

However, judging from the stock price, it is just for fun.

What is really worth noting is that after this incident, Huayi itself has basically fallen from a first-tier domestic entertainment company to a second-tier company.

With the loss of a strong competitor, many leaders of other companies felt a sense of grief as they recovered from the loss.

The entertainment industry is ever-changing, with countless companies rising and falling.

Today, Huayi is in trouble.

And will their future also be ruined one day?
No one knows the answer to this.

Therefore, enjoy life while you can. The more uncertain you are about the future, the more you should enjoy today.

However, all this has little to do with Zhou Mo.

On the same day that Huayi announced the news, he finally received the reward for "The Misfortune".

From the perspective of economic attributes, this time's reward is completely inferior to the previous ones.

But for Zhou Mo, he had been looking forward to this reward for a long time, and it could even be said that it was a dream come true.

Be full of energy, fight more bravely and never get exhausted.

After more than five hundred chapters, he finally gained the physical abilities he had been longing for for so many years.

Five years!

Five years have passed since the first movie was released.

How many five-year periods do we have in our life?
After going through so many system settlements, he finally obtained his first physical ability.

And it’s the one that’s most needed.

Think about how many times he has exercised and how many times he has done special training over the past few years.

What for?
Isn't it just to be persistent, determined and patient?
Now, he finally did it.

"Everything I have now was earned step by step by me, all thanks to myself!" Zhou Mo thought silently.

He decided that from today on, he would change his online name.

"Brave Motive"!
Looking at the introduction on the system, Zhou Mo laughed alone in the room for a long time.

It was not until the next morning that he walked out of the room in high spirits.

Life is so simple and joyful.

After calming down, Zhou Mo took a car to the company.

In the office, Tian Xiaopeng had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Zhou Mo enter the room, Tian Xiaopeng stood up immediately.

"Director Zhou, you are here."

While speaking, he observed Zhou Mo's emotions and found that Zhou Mo's face was flushed with a smile on his lips, which made him feel much more at ease.

In fact, when Zhou Mo discussed "The Return of the Great Sage" with him, he promised Zhou Mo that it would be out in more than a year.

Who knew, when he actually started doing it, he would find that it would take much longer than he had planned.

From more than a year at the beginning, to two years later, and then to more than two years and almost three years.

The construction period gets longer and longer, and the cost gets higher and higher.

In the end, even he himself felt that it was unacceptable.

Extending the construction period over and over again is like an investment black hole.

However, the special effects technology Zhou Mo provided them was really amazing.

It was a sin for Tian Xiaopeng to have such good technology but not use it properly. Fortunately, Zhou Mo gave them full affirmation after seeing the interim results and decisively gave them an extension.

It was not until the first half of this year that "The Return of the Great Sage" was completely completed and scheduled to be released in August, and the production of the film came to an end.

Zhou Mo entered the room and noticed Tian Xiaopeng's reaction.

"Director Tian, ​​just sit down. You're welcome. Have you had breakfast?"

Tian Xiaopeng took his seat and nodded.

"have eaten."

"Okay, in that case, let's just talk about work." Zhou Mo stopped dragging his feet and said, "Regarding the movie premiere, there's no problem with the people I can call over. It's mainly about you, Director Tian. Just call as many people as you can. It's not a problem if there are a lot of people. The more people, the more fun it will be. That's ok, right?"

"Of course no problem!" Tian Xiaopeng said excitedly.

There is no doubt that when "The Return of the Great Sage" was released, the most excited person in the world was him, the director.

As we all know, there are many animation companies in China, but there are only a few of them.

Especially in the field of animated films, Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf is currently able to produce films stably, but nothing else.

As for "Boonie Bears".

At the beginning of this year, the "Boonie Bears" series produced its first film, which earned about 2.5 million yuan at the box office, and the entire industry was jubilant for a while.

But whether this can be maintained in the future remains unknown.

After all, even Pleasant Goat himself said that he would not consider making a big movie in the near future.

From this we can see that the field of animated films really has huge potential for future development.

Now, his work has finally made its debut, and this sense of accomplishment is really irresistible.

When Tian Xiaopeng thought of this, he couldn't help but start laughing.

Zhou Mo did not interrupt him. After he finished laughing, he said, "Also, Director Tian, ​​I have arranged an interview for you at the station. When are you free?"

Tian Xiaopeng came back to his senses and his old face turned red.

He lost his composure by smiling like a pervert in front of the investors.

"Let's do it this afternoon, Director Zhou. I have time this afternoon."

"Okay, I'll arrange it directly. Someone will take you directly to the station and arrange for you to be interviewed."

Tian Xiaopeng asked hesitantly, "Director Zhou, can I ask about the content of the interview?"

Seeing that he was a little worried, Zhou Mo smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, I'm just talking about the concept and my expectations for the future of the film.

When you go to Lizhan, just treat it like your own home, because Lizhan is one of the investors of this movie. "

Tian Xiaopeng nodded, feeling much more at ease.

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Director Zhou, does this expectation for the future of movies include expectations for the box office?"

"That's for sure."

"Ah, is it true?" Tian Xiaopeng felt a little uneasy.

He is quite worried about this, and if he says less, he might appear to be not confident enough.

But what if we say too much and fail to achieve our goals in the future, wouldn’t that be a failure?
He didn't care if he failed, but he was afraid that Zhou Mo, the investor, would have opinions.

"Director Zhou, do we have to say this at that time? Can we change it?"

Zhou Mo smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, just treat it as a prospect, you don't have to worry about me, just treat it as a promotion for the movie...

However, if you are really worried, you can tell me in advance what your expected box office revenue is for the movie. "

Tian Xiaopeng glanced at Zhou Mo and found that he was not teasing.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly said a number.

“Five small goals.”
