Chapter 750 Upstarts

$755, Upstarts

After learning that Tang Wen was going to TAXX, Xiao Wang immediately said that he would come over soon. Before Tang Wen had parked his car in the parking lot, Xiao Wang's Rolls-Royce arrived.

After seeing Tang Wen, Xiao Wang's first words were: "Old Tang, according to what you said, there is really no possibility for Lao Zhang's movie to turn around?"

Tang Wen shook his head and said: "It's difficult. Let's put aside other things. If you don't make people realize patriotism again in a war movie now, how can you make it a literary film? How can this thing have a high box office? If you were the audience, would you rather watch a passionate war movie to commemorate the martyrs, or a slow literary film?"

"That's right, it's really a bit awkward." Xiao Wang locked the car and stood with Tang Wen and nodded.

Tang Wen said unhappily: "It's ok for art films to win awards these days, but forget about the box office. Not to mention that it's an investment of 600 million yuan. You might be able to make an epic war film with all this."

"That's right, but Lao Zhang is determined to make that." Xiao Wang said depressedly.

Tang Wen smiled and said: "Then do you still plan to invest?"

"I'm not stupid. You said it's useless, so why would I invest? If I can't get foreign theater resources, it would be a blessing for this thing to break 600 million in China." Xiao Wang said unhappily.

After saying that, Xiao Wang was scared. If he had agreed to Lao Zhang's request before, Wan Da and himself would have suffered heavy losses this time.

Xiao Wang came to his senses and looked at Tang Wen and said: "Hey, Lao Tang, why are you free to come here today? Do you want me to call Lao Qin along?"

"Forget it, Ma San and Hei Kai asked me to come here today." Tang Wen shook his head and said.

Xiao Wang smiled wickedly, "Oh, I understand."

The two smiled at each other, walked into the VIP elevator and headed towards their own private room. When they arrived at the room, Ma San and Hei Kai were already there, and there was also a strange woman.

Tang Wen took a closer look, isn't this Hei Kai's partner Huang Xiaoqiao? Hei Kai really spent a lot of money, even calling his former partner over?

Xiao Wang saw that the "protagonist" tonight was Tang Wen, so he sat aside very sensibly.

Hei Kai introduced Tang Wen enthusiastically, "Mr. Tang, this is Huang Xiaoqiao, my former partner."

"Hello." Tang Wen nodded.

Huang Xiaoqiao was a little flattered and said, "Hello, Mr. Tang." Although she already knew that Hei Kai was bringing her to meet a big shot this time, she never thought that the big shot Hei Kai was talking about would be the boss of WF Group.

At first, Huang Xiaoqiao was not sure, but after seeing Xiao Wang, she was almost certain that the person who came was the boss of WF Group, the recent celebrity.

After everyone sat down, Hei Kai deliberately let Huang Xiaoqiao sit next to Tang Wen. He and Ma San sat at the other end and kept acting as "commentators".

Suddenly, Xiao Wang's cell phone rang. After he answered the phone, he muttered to the phone and turned to Tang Wen and said, "Old Tang, Old Qin will come over soon."

"Uh? Didn't he and you plan to find someone to invest recently? How come he still has time to come to TAXX?" Tang Wen asked. Recently, Qin Feng and Xiao Wang have been looking for "reliable" people to invest, and rarely come to TAXX.

"Hehe, aren't they looking for you to discuss something?" Xiao Wang said with a smirk.

"Another theater matter?" Tang Wen said speechlessly.

Xiao Wang nodded and said, "Well, Lao Qin is planning to support a young director in Shanghai recently. Now the two sides are probably discussing what to shoot."

"Hehe, you really don't treat me as an outsider." Tang Wen snickered.

"That's right. After seeing the operation of Xu Guangtou recently, people in the circle now want to go abroad to make money. After all, once the reputation and box office are up, then there will be no worries about no one investing in the future?" Xiao Wang explained.

Now everyone in the circle unanimously agrees that after getting the script, they will first look at whether there are any "resources" abroad. If they can get a foreign film, they dare to continue to make additional investments.

Otherwise, it's better to just make a small move in China. After all, few people are willing to do things that lose money.

Not long after, Qin Feng smiled and pushed open the door. There was a young man behind him. It seemed that he was the young director that Qin Feng wanted to support this time.

"Hey, Old Tang, I'm here. This is Han Yu. You probably have heard of him, right?" Qin Feng introduced the young man next to him to Tang Wen.

"Mr. Tang." Han Yu smiled after seeing Tang Wen.

"Oh, this is the talented man, right?" Tang Wen recognized this topic person at once.

Qin Feng nodded and said, "Yes, he is planning to make an art film and wants to ask you to watch it."

"Art films can be played in China, but don't hold too high hopes for foreign films." Tang Wen shook his head and said.

Hearing what Tang Wen said, Han Yu was obviously embarrassed. Qin Feng interrupted and said, "Is there really no hope?"

"No, how many art films in our country have you seen that can get good box office abroad? If you insist on going online, you can ask Zhou Xu to arrange a schedule for you." Tang Wen didn't want to say it for sure.

"Okay, I feel relieved when Old Tang said this." Qin Feng said with a smile, as long as Tang Wen agreed to give the schedule and how much money he could make in the end, that would be their business.

When everyone was chatting, Tang Wen learned that Han Yu was planning to participate in the WRC rally, so he asked curiously: "Which team are you signing with now?"

Han Yu touched his head embarrassedly and said: "Mr. Tang, you think too highly of me. I am just playing around now and am currently in contact with the Japanese side."

"Oh, how much does it cost to get a WRC car?" Tang Wen asked curiously.

When talking about cars, Han Yu seemed to be chattering.

"Mr. Tang, this is it, the entry-level one is about 3 million, and if it needs to be modified, it will cost about 600,000 to 800,000 euros."

"Why are you planning to play this too, Old Tang?" Qin Feng asked curiously.

Tang Wen nodded and said: "It's too boring for us Chinese to join a foreign team. I plan to invest 100 million US dollars to set up my own team for fun."

"Hiss, hiss."

Everyone present took a breath when they heard Tang Wen casually say 100 million US dollars.

Xiao Wang was stunned and said, "Old Tang, this is 100 million US dollars, not 100 million Chinese yuan."

Tang Wen smiled and said, "Is 100 million US dollars a lot? 50 million US dollars to change 5 vehicles, 25 million US dollars to change 10 supply vehicles, and the rest of the money is enough to pay salaries."

Qin Feng: ? ?

Han Yu: ? ?

Xiao Wang: ? ?

Ma San: ? ?

Hei Kai: ? ?

Huang Xiaoqiao: ? ?

No one expected that Tang Wen would just throw tens of millions of US dollars. Even Xiao Wang and Qin Feng couldn't stand this nouveau riche.

Of course, Han Yu was the happiest. If Tang Wen was really willing to spend so much money, it would be a matter of time before he won the championship.
