I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Lin Dong was in a good mood after the deal was negotiated.

Not to mention the personal remuneration of 20 million, he also spent more than half of the six billion that Zhang Sanpang's adversary brought back.

If you do the math, six hundred million took over four hundred million to shoot "Catch the Monster".

The remaining 200 million, and then make up a little bit, just as the third season of "Tucao Show" capital.

However, Lin Dong's thinking like this does not mean that others think so.

"President Shi, if your company has sufficient funds, would you consider investing in the second part?"

Of course Xu Chengyi couldn't just think about making one.

In this movie, they have made such a huge worldview, and their ambition is obvious. In fact, what they want to do is China's "Harry Potter".

"The second part?" Lin Dong was a little wary.

"Actually, the first part is to lay out the world view and make things like settings clear. If we want to make money, we still have to make the second part."

Xu Chengyi thought that Kleist was worried that the second movie would not make money.

He hurriedly explained: "We can hire big guys for the second part. With the foundation of the first part, it is easy to make a lot of money, and the cost is also convenient to control. Many equipment and scenery can be used with slight changes."

"Yes, the first part is to earn word of mouth, and the second part is to earn the box office. Even if it is not well done, the box office will not be worse than the first." Jiang Zhigang's mind became active again.

It took 200 million yuan to do a lot of work, and the producer's remuneration was not as much as the interest of 200 million yuan in the bank.

If he can confirm the second part now, he hopes he can get a share.

Of course, after the project was sold to Kleist, let him not be allowed to participate in it, and that was completely what Kleist said.

"I don't agree with your ideas." Lin Dong had to speak and pretend to be a master at this meeting. He frowned and asked, "Is there any Harry Potter series that invites a big guy to make money? It's eager for quick success and instant benefits.

After speaking, he was still a little proud.

Because as a former foreign devils, he said two idioms in a row.

"Uh..." Xu Chengyi didn't know what to say.

Saying that the cost will be lower than that of the first one, saying that it will hire big names, saying that the box office will not be worse than the first one, isn't it all to persuade you to invest money?

If you can't make money, will you take the money obediently?

As the initiator of a project, as a director, he is also very bitter.

If you want to make a classic and make a Chinese "Harry Potter", the premise is that the gold master's father will host him.

That's why he sacrificed his artistic ethics, saying that he wanted to help Klester make a fortune in the second part.

However, Jin Zhu's father seemed quite dissatisfied.

"Our opinion here is that if you shoot a sequel, the quality of the sequel should not be lower than that of the previous one. Since China's "Harry Potter" is to be made, then it must be the best. It doesn't matter whether it makes money or not." Lin Dong looked at Shi Shanshan.

Queen Shi nodded sharply, almost wagging her tail.

You suffer and I suffer. With such a crazy boss, what else can I do besides nodding my head.

Jiang Zhigang closed his mouth, and killed him he didn't vote for the second part.

No, it's a project with Klester in the future, he will not vote again.

This company is sick.

"It must be!" Xu Chengyi almost laughed cry.

It’s something that directors like him can’t even dream of to have such a financial father.

Sure enough, reality is more absurd than dreams.

"What is the cost budget for the second part?" Shi Shanshan asked for the boss.

In fact, she has never been able to understand the boss's financial situation. As a private company, and it is still a sole proprietorship, Boss Lin does not need to disclose his finances to anyone.

Crest Culture Media rarely lacks money, and recently the boss said that he was a little insufficient.

When I said this, my smile was weird, and I looked irritating.

Therefore, as the general manager of the company, Shi Shanshan is worried that the little money for variety shows is not enough to invest in "Catching Monsters" 1 and 2.

"For the production of the second part, two to five hundred million is enough, and it doesn't take that much to publish, but fifty million is enough." Xu Chengyi quickly gave the answer, seeming to know that his reputation in this area is not very good. , And quickly added: "Three hundred million is definitely enough. I promise that there is no need for any additional."

Frankly speaking, he felt that he was also sick.

To make classic and high-level works, it is inevitable to burn money.

Xu Chengyi, born in Hollywood DreamWorks, is particularly good at burning money.

"Shrek 2", the production cost is 150 million-US dollars.

The third and fourth parts of "Shrek" both cost more than 160 million - still US dollars.

In his normal thinking, Jinzhu's father is so easy to talk, and if you give him 500 million or even 1 billion in the second part, he can spend it.

But he can't do this.

Because he knows what the domestic market is like.

If you dare to burn like Hollywood, a company will be burned to death in a few clicks.

After burning to death.

Kleist went bankrupt, and he had to roll back to Hollywood in despair, which was different from his original intention of returning to China.

It's rare to meet the father of a money owner who values ​​quality so much rather than profit.

This is a rare animal.

Take good care of it.

Therefore, he decided to control the cost and try to shoot the best works with the least amount of money.

The first one is 400 million yuan, and the second one is 300 million yuan. In fact, there is no cost reduction.

After all, the second part has the foundation of the first part, and many things can be used immediately. The most cost-effective place is the CG team. With the experience of the first part, the second part can save a lot of effort.

If there is no remake, the cost of the first part would be 250 million yuan.

If you don't pay much attention to the quality of the second part and just want to hold money, you can actually shoot 100 million yuan, and you want 300 million yuan, and you don't plan to hire a big man. This is really a stumbling block in quality.

Seven hundred million!

Money...and...and...not enough. Wow.

Although a little worried, Lin Dong wanted to wipe honey in his heart.

Not to mention more comfortable.

What I want is this feeling of kidney overdraft!

It's like eating ice cream in the northeast hometown in the big winter, one word-refreshing.

Seeing Mr. Lin nodded.

Shi Shanshan smiled slightly-the kind of smile that almost couldn't make it. This Nima is 700 million, so he made two movies?

Boss~www.NovelMTL.com~Are you not afraid of breaking the ball?

You Lao Lin's family haven't left a post yet!

But she bit the bullet and agreed: "In principle, we agree to two continuous shooting, so everyone will bother. We will communicate with Penguin Video and let them pay the money as soon as possible."

Regarding funding, Lin Dong's plan is like this.

The six hundred million yuan of net profits from Variety Show are taken, and then one hundred million will be misappropriated from the company account or cultural fund account.

As for the cost of the third season of "Tucao Show", it is entirely possible to wait for the settlement of these two films-no matter how optimistic, he would not think that the two films can lose money.

If the compensation is over, he will sell "Tucao Show" to Penguin Video.

At that time, he should pack his backpack and prepare to return to the wizarding world.
