Chapter 308 Big news! Big deal!
Dreaming and Mutual Entertainment was established at the beginning, all industries are waiting to be developed, and there are countless places to spend money.
Well, even if the company's liquidity is very healthy, you can invest some of it.
There are many places to invest.
For example, like now, invest in a special effects company; or invest in an animation company. Isn't it fragrant?
And the efficiency of returning the funds from those investments is much faster than investing in film and television bases.
It can also bring more benefits to the company.
So why spend hundreds of millions of working capital on building palaces?
But Shu Yihuan said that his film must restore the palace complex.
Of course, he added that if he wanted to save investment, he could not restore the entire Wudang palace complex.
He made a budget table. If all inferior materials are used, earthquake resistance, safety, etc. are not considered during construction.
And only a small part is restored, most of the palaces only build an empty shell, leaving the interior alone.
In this case, it only takes about 80 million to 100 million yuan, more than 3 months, and no more than 4 months to complete.
In that case, firstly, the effect of shooting cannot be guaranteed; secondly, such a group of palaces cannot be used as a film and television base, let alone a tourist destination.
The investment of 100 million yuan, after the filming of the film, became a pile of broken stones, exposed to the sun and rain, gradually abandoned, and it was impossible to return the funds at all.
If additional investment is to be made to build a film and television base in the future, then these shoddy buildings will have to be demolished with human and material resources.
Dream Chasing and Mutual Entertainment are a little undecided on this matter.
There are also a few meetings to discuss.
"What do you think?" Duan Xiaochen asked.
Du Caige smiled: "No matter what I think about it, will you support me?"
Duan Xiaochen lowered his head and thought for a while, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were very firm: "Of course I support you."
"Even if this step is wrong, the big deal is that the company goes bankrupt. I'll go out and run business shows to support you."
Du Caige was both moved and amused.
"It won't get to this point. Even if the investment fails, it's not the end of the world."
"Brother, how did you think about it? Do you think this project is worth investing in?"
"It's worth it," Du Caige said, "that's what I think: we will take out 200 million in cash, so that it won't affect the cash flow too much. Then we will borrow 300 million, a total of 500 million, plan well, please the best Team, the building complex has been initially built. In 5-6 months, that is, in March next year, the filming can almost start, and then continue to build while filming. "
"When the movie is finished, we will go out and build a film and television base. At that time, we have a work, a popularity, and a prototype of the film and television base. At that time, we will attract other investors, continue to invest money, and put The successor was built."
"There is no need to build it all at once," Du Caige recalled the Hengdian Film and Television Base, which was built slowly over a period of 20 years, a little this year and a little next year, "Let's plan well and take your time. "
"The profits from this film will be used to repay the loan."
"As for the investment promised to Shu Yihuan, the 150 million yuan should not be discounted, and the money for repairing the palace complex will not be deducted from there. Sign a few good actors, and prepare 50 million yuan for special effects and 50 million yuan for publicity. This budget is already very high. nervous."
Duan Xiaochen kept nodding. "Okay, I'll support you at the next meeting."
Du Caige hesitated: "Do you really agree with my opinion, or..."
Duan Xiaochen gave him a charming look: "Is this important?"
Du Caige said solemnly: "Of course it's important. Because I'm not infallible, and sometimes I make mistakes. So I hope you don't blindly support me. If you have a different opinion, say it out loud."
Duan Xiaochen shrugged, "Okay, then do you want to hear the truth or lie."
"Of course it's true."
"The issue is,
Duan Xiaochen covered his mouth, smiling like a fox that just stole a little hen, "Even if I lied, can you tell?" "
"..."
...
At the press conference, the people who were chased and questioned by reporters were not necessarily the protagonists.
Du Caige has long been aware of this.
When he was on earth, Du Caige took the actors to hold press conferences, or sometimes went to variety shows and road shows.
Obviously he is the director, and he is the protagonist, but the reporters are always most interested in the actors, not the director.
What impressed him most was the press conference at which the project for his second film was announced.
At that time, the heroine was a second-tier actor, and the male lead was a quasi-first-tier actor.
The reporter asked him about seven to eight questions very perfunctory, and then started to point the finger at the heroine.
Because the heroine had an orange cat not long ago, she posted several sets of photos on Weibo.
The reporters asked the cat more than a dozen questions.
"It is said that this cat was given by my friend Li Minna. Do you have a good relationship with her?"
"The pictures you post on Weibo are so cute, do you spend a lot of time training them?"
"Do you prefer cats or dogs?"
"When you're busy filming, what about the cat?"
Etc., etc.
Du Caige was particularly impressed by this incident.
Because of his first movie before, he made an urban light comedy.
With a small and broad, he got a box office of 140 million with an investment of 11 million, which is the most promising among the new generation directors.
The second-tier actress and the quasi-first-tier male protagonist all respected him very much, it could even be said to be very respectful.
He himself is also smug, even if he is habitually keeping a low profile and modesty, there is still a sense of arrogance in his heart.
After all, a director who can make money for the capital is naturally higher than an actor in the coffee position.
But in the eyes of reporters, the news value of the actor is much higher than that of the director.
The reason why the news value of actors is higher than that of directors is because of the needs of the audience. Most people don't care whether the director's surname is Zhang or Li, or whether the director has a cat or a dog.
The director is the chef, and the actors are the ingredients.
When people eat dishes in their mouths, they will at most care about the freshness of the ingredients, rather than the chef's knife work.
In this press conference held by Dreams Entertainment, the protagonist is Shu Yihuan.
However, two-thirds of the reporters almost shoved the microphone into Duan Xiaochen's mouth.
A third of the reporters were busy stuffing the microphones into Du Caige's mouth.
After being asked a few symbolic questions, Shu Yihuan was embarrassed and left alone.
But fortunately, he may be used to it, and he has been smiling all the time, so that people can't see the turbulence in his heart.
"After Duan Tian, why did you start a company with Hemingway?"
"Because he can write songs, he can write good songs, and I can sing. We are a perfect match." Duan Xiaochen smiled and made a pun.
"Just because of that?"
"Would you like to give me another reason?"
"After Duan Tian, it is said that you and Hemingway have become lovers, is that so?"
"According to who?"
"..."
"After Duan Tian, what businesses will Dream Dream Interactive Entertainment develop in the future?"
"There will be businesses you can imagine, and there will also be businesses you can't imagine. We are a new type of entertainment company, creating a new interactive entertainment experience in the spirit of the Internet. In the future, you will gradually witness, and we will bring this industry. It's a lot different."
There are also reporters chasing after Du Caige. "Hemingway, it is said that you reunited with Su Manch during the recording of 'New Powers of Music', is that true?"
Du Caige was expressionless: "I'm sorry you went to the wrong studio. This is the press conference of Director Shu and Zhumeng Huyu, not the press conference of 'New Power of Music'."
"It is said that you are going to change careers to enter the film industry and become a director, is that true?"
"Your source is quite reliable."
"It is said that you fell in love with the heroine while you were directing the movie, is that so?"
"...Actually, your source is not reliable. I suggest you deduct his bonus."
"Can you tell us a little bit about your first film?"
"First of all, to correct it, this is not the first film I directed, the first film I directed was "The Depths of a Hundred Flowers", which was a super short, which can be seen on the low light video. Then this time it was a micro film , the name is "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years". The post-production has been completed for the most part, and we can meet the audience and friends soon."
"This is a story about youth, friendship and love of youth, enthusiasm and confusion of youth, it can be regarded as a semi-autobiographical film of me and Duan Xiaochen. Today we will hang the trailer on official Weibo and major video sites. ."
"That is to say, there will be some real stories between you and Duan Xiaochen in the movie?"
"Correct, a true story that has undergone some artistic processing."
"Hemingway, are you going to continue your career in music?"
"Yes, there will be some works coming out recently, so stay tuned."
After the reporters had almost exhausted their energy, they asked Director Shu Yihuan a few questions in a coping manner.
Then information such as "150 million investment" and "on-site construction of palaces" made them a little interested.
After all, in this era, 150 million Chinese yuan is equivalent to 70 million US dollars, and an investment of 70 million US dollars is definitely a big deal.
There are very few movies that have invested more than 100 million dollars in the world.
If Shu Yihuan's new film can actually invest 150 million yuan, it will become the 18th most expensive film in the history of Dahua National Films.
This is also quite remarkable data. After all, the leading investment in Dreams Entertainment is just a nascent entertainment company.
It is already very courageous to launch such a large project just a month or two after its establishment.
When Duan Xiaochen announced that the company was considering meeting Shu Yihuan's request and investing billions to try to restore the Wudang palace complex; and that it might loan 3 billion in the next ten years, continue to invest, and build a large-scale film and television base, the reporters were almost boiling .
Big news! Big deal!
Dream Chasing Mutual Entertainment is a great move to hold back without making a sound!
