Chapter 294 New Movie (Two in One)

Jiang Quan's investment failed again, and he was in a bad mood. However, sometimes the more he lost, the more he was unconvinced, and the more he wanted to earn back with interest. This kind of gambler's mentality is Jiang Quan's current state only idea.

So, just after the new year, Jiang Quan personally sat in the company, trying to find a good work worth investing in.

In fact, for these small and medium-sized investment companies, compared with the uncertainty of movies, it is safer to invest in TV dramas.

However, because of Ning Sheng's targeting, Jiang Quan has long since given up on TV dramas, and the only way out is movies, and only movies can turn defeat into victory and make a lot of money back in a short period of time.

Therefore, under the leadership of President Jiang, the company operated at full speed, and finally selected three films for Jiang Quan to decide.

One is a martial arts movie, one is a gunfight movie, and the other is a comedy movie.These three works are all films with a total investment of less than 5000 million. There is no big company taking the lead, and some investment companies like Jiang Quan jointly funded the production and shared the risks and benefits.

However, in general this kind of movie, there are very few surprises, and generally it does not make much money, nor does it lose much.

Jiang Quan looked at these three works and felt dissatisfied. What he wanted was a good movie that could turn defeat into victory and make him money, but these three movies did not let him see the advantages that could guarantee his profit .

After thinking about it all morning, Jiang Quan finally returned all three works. He decided to go to Jinbei Film and Television to see if there is any big production, and he can participate in the film of the big cast.

"The Promise" was a failure, but apart from those dark horse movies that were all based on luck, the most profitable and safest movies are those movies with big casts and big productions, and this kind of blockbuster, only the five major movie companies in China can independently Production, other small and medium-sized wages cannot afford it, and they dare not independently invest in such a blockbuster.

However, in order to share the risk, the blockbuster films led by these five major film companies will also give some investment shares to other friendly companies. Jiang Quan only hopes to participate in a successful large-scale production before the Spring Festival this year, not only for making money, but also for Prove your ability, you are not a fool who only loses money!

However, it is a pity that when Jiang Quan returned home at night with his arms around a third-rate star who had just hooked up, the lights in the house were actually on.

"I told you not to bring women home, right?" A long-haired woman in casual attire sat on the sofa, drinking the tea she cooked, and said calmly without raising her head.

Jiang Quan swallowed his saliva with difficulty, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were coming back today, I—" Jiang Quan was as panicked as a mouse seeing a cat, and then immediately turned to open the door, leaving the confused girl beside him Pushing it out the door, he waved his hand to tell her to leave quickly.

Then he closed the door with a bang, tidied up his clothes, changed into his slippers, walked over with a pious smile on his face, squatted in front of the coffee table, and gently poured tea for the woman, "Honey, didn't you just come back at the end of the year? Earlier?"

The woman sat on the sofa, looked lazily at the man squatting in front of her, and said with a chuckle, "I don't want to come back so early, but you caused my company to lose nearly 6000 million, and now you use my You are worried about the 5000 million yuan left at home, if you don’t come back, maybe you will sell this house, where will you let me live then?”

Jiang Quan knelt down on the carpet with an embarrassed face, skillfully massaging the woman's calf, "Honey, listen to me, the company has lost some money, but I'm talking to the people from Jinbei Film and Television. There is a big card company. I want to spend 5000 million yuan from my family’s 6000 million yuan. This is what I managed to convince the other party. This time I will definitely earn back a lot. Maybe I can get back the previous [-] million yuan. !"

The woman smiled lightly, then tapped Jiang Quan's forehead with her red toe and said, "It's been so many years, and I'm still so stupid!"

Jiang Quan looked embarrassed, and wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the woman, "Okay, I'll go to the company tomorrow to have a look, and then I'll settle the matter between you and that Ning Cheng, just be good to me these few days." , don’t cause trouble, you know?”

Jiang Quan opened his mouth, but nodded obediently under the majestic Danfeng eyes of the woman.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to rest!" The woman got up and went to the bedroom, Jiang Quan followed behind, and then watched the woman being welcomed into the room by another familiar short-haired woman, Jiang Quan himself returned His own bedroom, sighed, was finally found.

But it's okay, everything has been handed over now, although the company probably won't have anything to do in the future, but wait for that person to calm down, and then find a way to set up another investment company.Anyway, that guy never misses his own expenses.

After Ning Sheng showed the script of "Soldiers Assault" to Kang Lei, a famous military director, he immediately agreed to take over the TV series. Now that the studio is not short of money, Ning Sheng directly allocated 5000 million for the production cost, and the actor Wang Qiang is now Although he is very popular and has made two very successful movies, he has great respect for Ning Cheng, the person who made him famous, so the cost is still calculated at the price of ordinary first-line actors, and others are mostly newcomers. , can leave a lot of space for film production.

I believe that the hardware upgrade of this TV series will definitely produce better results.

Director Xu Zheng's "Lost in Thailand" was a big hit last year, so the script for the new film "Lost in Korea" was quickly prepared, and I showed it to Ning Sheng.

Because of the different history, the Chinese in this world do not have Hong Kong film feelings, so Director Xu has no idea to go to Xiangjiang to make films. , this time the script is still a comedy based on various accidents in a foreign country.

"Han囧" is different from "Thai囧" because more than half of the people in South Korea can speak some simple Chinese, so the filming environment is different from that of Thai language, and the laughing points are also different. Ning Sheng has seen it Afterwards, I thought it was okay. Compared with the embarrassing "Hong Kong囧" in the previous life, this "Han囧" is much better in terms of plot, but there are still some things that are too deliberate. After discussing with Director Xu, please ask him edit a bit.

After solving these matters, Ning Sheng began to prepare his new movie.

After choosing and choosing, he also decided to make his favorite martial arts movie. However, he just made this decision in the morning, and before notifying the people under the company of the work arrangement, Lin Ling sent him a picture invitations.

"Lan Yingzhu?" Ning Cheng looked at the name on the invitation, raised his head and asked Lin Ling, "Who is this? We know each other?"

Lin Ling shook her head and said, "We probably don't know each other, but I asked President Zheng. This Lan Yingzhu is the eldest lady of the Lan Group. She is mainly responsible for the development of the family business in Europe and rarely returns to China. This time I sent you an invitation letter, saying that I want to have a meal with you and talk about it, I think maybe it is a fan I like, and I want to have a meal with you."

Ning Sheng smiled and said, "Sister Lin, stop talking nonsense, the Lan Group is a Fortune [-] company with tens of billions of dollars in assets, a young lady in charge of the European region would find someone like an idol for something like that. A stranger for dinner?"

Lin Ling said, "Besides this reason, I really can't think of any other reason."

"Forget it, since I can't think of it, I don't want to. Hey, can I refuse this invitation?" Ning Cheng said with a smile, "Just say that I'm not free, and decline her."

Ning Cheng is really not interested in having dinner and chatting with a stranger.

However, Lin Ling quickly went out and came back again, with a strange expression on her face, she said to Ning Cheng, "Xiao Sheng, you'd better go there!"

Ning Cheng was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Lin Ling said, "People say that it is to completely solve Jiang Quan's problem with you, so please be sure to come and talk!"

"Jiang Quan?" Ning Cheng was full of curiosity. How did a lecherous little boss with a fortune of less than [-] million get involved with a lady from a multinational company?

"That's fine, I'll go!" No matter what relationship Jiang Quan has with Lan Yingzhu, the sooner Jiang Quan's matter is resolved, the better. Perverts will ruin more girls.

The address on the invitation letter was in the Marquis private room of the Royal Hotel. When Ning Cheng arrived, Jiang Quan was standing in the room serving food to a woman in an evening dress.

Seeing Ning Cheng and Lin Ling coming in, Lan Yingzhu clapped her hands and let the service staff leave, then got up and walked to Ning Cheng and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Lan Yingzhu!" !

Ning Cheng stretched out his hand and shook it, "Lucky, I'm Ning Cheng!"

"Okay, everyone is here, Xiao Jiang, let them serve the food!" Lan Yingzhu smiled and told Jiang Quan, as naturally as a general commanding a small soldier!
Jiang Quan also hurriedly responded, and went out to ask for food to be served. After a while, when the dishes on the table were finished, Lan Yingzhu raised her glass and said, "You're welcome. Before we talk about things, let's eat, eat and drink, and then eat and drink." It’s not too late to talk slowly! Please!”

Lin Ling looked at Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng smiled lightly, picked up his chopsticks and said, "It's been a busy day, and I haven't had lunch yet. Someone treats me, it's great, let's eat first and then talk!"

The four of them ate quietly at the table, just like the ancients said that eating without talking or sleeping without talking, the four of them finished their dinner quietly, and then waited for the waiter to pack up everything and bring fruit and refreshments after the meal. Someone spoke again.

Ning Cheng took a sip of fragrant tea and said directly, "We've finished our meal, shall we talk about business? Miss Lan Yingzhu, you said you wanted to talk to me about Jiang Quan, so before that, can you tell me who you are?" In what capacity are you talking, and why would Jiang Quan listen to you? You can’t finish the talk today, and Jiang Quan won’t admit it tomorrow, that would be too boring!”

Lan Yingzhu took a sip of the fragrant tea, then put it down, looked at Ning Cheng and said, "Since Mr. Ning Cheng is so frank, then I will speak directly."

Ning Cheng nodded and said, "Please tell me!"

Lan Yingzhu glanced at the quiet Jiang Quan next to her and said, "I'm here to talk to you as Jiang Quan's wife and his supporter, so don't worry about whether Jiang Quan will violate our final decision, as long as we A mutual agreement has been reached, and Jiang Quan will definitely carry it out obediently, including quitting the entertainment industry, and even never looking for a woman in the entertainment industry again!"

"Madam? Provider?" Ning Cheng didn't understand. Could the identities of these two be merged into one?
Lan Yingzhu chuckled and said, "It's not hard to understand, you can simply regard Jiang Quan as a softie! And he is a person who enjoys eating softly, loves it very much, and likes this profession very much!"

Ning Cheng and the people next to him suddenly realized, and nodded again and again, that's how it is!

"Okay, since you understand that I can make the decision for Jiang Quan's affairs, then let's talk about the matter between you and Jiang Quan!" Lan Yingzhu looked at Ning Cheng and continued, "Why did you conflict? There is no need to say more about this point. What I want to say now is that because of the conflict between you and Jiang Quan, Jiang Quan lost nearly 6000 million. The money is mine. Although it is not a lot, I don’t like losing money, and how to say it Jiang Quan is also my man, isn't he? I always want to save face for him!"

Ning Cheng frowned and said, "Then you called me here this time to tell me that you want to support Jiang Quan in fighting against me?"

Lan Yingzhu shook her head and said, "Don't talk about fighting, it's too intense, and I'm here to discuss with you a solution to this matter, rather than continuing to pester you!"

Ning Sheng said, "Then do you have any suggestions? Can you get Jiang Quan to quit the entertainment industry? As long as he quits, then this matter will naturally be over!"

Lan Yingzhu stared at Ning Cheng and said with a smile, "I can make him quit the entertainment circle, but, as I said just now, he is always my man, just like a pug I have raised for many years, who was bullied , I always have to do something, let’s do this, I have a suggestion, it’s very simple, let’s take a gamble, I won, you will no longer target Jiang Quan in the future, and you have to make up 6000 million of Jiang Quan’s loss of [-] million. Come back. If you win, Jiang Quan will quit the entertainment industry, and I will give you another [-] million, which is my private money!"

Lin Ling next to him and Jiang Quan, who was silently pretending to be dead, could not help but gasp. A bet of [-] million is too scary!

However, compared to Lin Ling's scare, Jiang Quan was more pleasantly surprised. He thought, if Lan Yingzhu won [-] million, he might give himself a little more pocket money when he was in a good mood. There is no need to move the manager position.

"Xiao Sheng——" Lin Ling wanted to persuade her, but was interrupted by Ning Cheng, "It's okay, Sister Lin." Then she looked at Lan Yingzhu and said, "It doesn't matter a hundred million, but what I want to know is, you How on earth is this bet, I don't know how to play dice poker!"

Lan Yingzhu said, "You are a director, and you are known as a genius in the industry. Since you have a conflict because of the entertainment industry, the solution should naturally be solved by means of the entertainment industry. Singing is no different. You I also admire his musical talent, TV dramas are too troublesome and petty, we compare movies, you make a movie, we make a movie, no matter who is the director, what actors are used, I compare the movie's finale Whoever has the highest box office will win, how?"

"Global box office, or Asian box office?" Ning Sheng asked.

"We are Chinese people, so it's better than the domestic box office!"
