Chapter 329 Thank Young Master Chen for Supporting Huaxia Movies!
The investment cost of 15 million yuan is definitely not enough if the filming of Westward Journey is done according to the average director.
The hero Zhizunbao must not be cast by an ordinary person, right? You must at least find a first-line star, and it must have online acting skills, preferably a star with the potential to be a movie star...
How much is such a star paid now?
It's not expensive, maybe more than 10 million...
If you choose those movie stars.
Hehe, there is no 20 million, you don't even have to talk about it...
And the key point is that even if you find those film stars, he may not necessarily shoot according to your wishes, will he?
After all, those who really win the Best Actor have their own set of ideas...
Leaving aside the male lead, the next issue is the female lead. Lu Yuan plans to shoot the upper part and the lower part of this movie together.
The heroines, Fairy Zixia and Bai Jingjing, can't find people whose acting skills are not online. If they are really authentic, then they must find some capable and obedient actresses.
Among other things, the salaries of the two heroines alone must be at least tens of millions, right?
There are also other important supporting roles in the movie, other characters, special effects production, and a series of money-burning things...
After such a pass, how can the total investment of 15 million be auctioned?
How to shoot?
Head shot?
This is simply an international joke, okay?
Even if it is actually shot, it will still be the effect of a bad domestic film!
However, it is not a big problem if these things are placed here with Lu Yuan. The hero can handle it by himself. Fairy Zixia asked Xu Lu to do it. After working with Xu Lu in "Groundhog Day", Lu Yuan felt very satisfied. This girl's acting skills are amazing Moreover, he is very obedient. At the same time, the remuneration is easy to negotiate. Lu Yuan estimates that it is about one or two million yuan. The other heroine, Bai Jingjing, is a little more difficult to deal with. Lu Yuan intends to hear what Yanying has. Good recommendation, he plans to use newcomers, and it is estimated that it will be a million at most...
The actor's salary is equal to zero, and the heroine's salary is three million!
The most important big head has been solved, other things are not enough?
supporting role?
And isn't Fatty Wei very busy recently? Ask Fatty Wei to come over for a free cameo, the ancestor of Bodhi, and provide a box lunch. It's okay for everyone to express their opinions, right? Although Lu Yihong is a bit busy, it's okay for him to take time to play a guest role, and his company's artists also include Shen Zhiwei, Wang Long...
Wang Long looks naive, but in a sense, he is also very happy. If his acting skills are up to standard, it is not a big problem for him to play Tang Seng as a cameo...
These are all resources, resources that need to be integrated!
Other small players?
nonsense!
Do you need to worry about other accessories? So many people are waiting in Hengdian.
Lu Yuan dared to say that he would pack his own meals to participate in "A Chinese Journey to the West" and the queues for these temporary extras could be lined up from Hengdian East Street to West Street.
After making such a plan in Lu Yuan's mind, he immediately finished planning the basic team of the entire "Journey to the West".
So in this calculation.
Fifteen million is indeed about the same, except that the special effects cost a little more.
However, Lu Yuan's plan is far behind the changes!
When Lu Yuan saw countless people holding tens of millions of banknotes, sharpening their knives and preparing to buy their own advertising sponsors...
Lu Yuan felt lost in an instant.
Yes!
It's really hard to hang up your driver's license, but...
This can't resist the temptation of the glittering gold and the happiness that exudes a faint fragrance in the air from time to time.
"Mr. Lu...I am Li Cheng from Weimeng Sanitary Ware Company,
Mr. Lu, I sincerely want to reach a long-term cooperation with your company..."
"Mr. Lu...I'm Liu Shaoan, the deputy general manager of Changtong Industry. Mr. Lu, I want to buy you an advertising space for a movie screening with 10 million yuan, is that okay?"
"Mr. Lu...we are also quite sincere, we are willing to pay 10 million to buy..."
"..."
After seeing Lu Yuan coming over, everyone outside of "Remote" Entertainment was very excited...
Countless investors.
Countless reporters.
and countless…
banknote!
……………………………
In fact, these investors actually want to invest in the film itself.
After all, after investing in this movie, with Lu Yuan's current popularity and appeal, combined with the strong box office performance of the "Long Distance" company during this period, they feel that they are definitely not losing money, and maybe they can make a lot of money.
pity……
They asked Wu Tingting immediately after Lu Yuan posted on Weibo to see if they could inject capital, but Wu Tingting's reply was very disappointing...
It is impossible to invest in the movie "A Chinese Journey to the West" and split the box office itself. The "Long Distance" company has an unwritten rule that the company's current movies are basically invested by Mr. Lu himself, and no one else will be accepted for the time being. invest……
After receiving this notice, the investors immediately scolded that this small company is worse than Tianyu and Huajin, saying that idiots will invest in your movies in the future.
But when they woke up the next day and heard that a group of people were going to sponsor the advertising space of "A Chinese Journey to the West", they rushed to the entrance of "Remote" Entertainment again, waiting nervously and expectantly for the auction Start……
Yes, bid!
There are dozens of people competing for advertisements, big or small, including Chen Cong, the second generation of rich, and Qian Fuqiang, the deputy general manager of Lu Yuan who endorses "Duo Le" sports equipment...
Although……
Chen Cong doesn't seem to be here today...
But this is also an invisible pressure.
In short, this auction is full of gunpowder, but I don't know how many advertising spots "Remote" Entertainment will open...
afternoon.
"Remote" entertainment conference room.
Although the air conditioner and the ceiling fan on the top were working hard, everyone present felt hot and stuffy.
Yes, muggy.
More than a dozen people are crammed into a conference room of thirty square meters, and it's summer, who isn't hot here?
Quite a few people were sweating profusely, staring at the air conditioner from time to time...
They even wondered if this air conditioner was a second-hand air conditioner. After all, the effect of this air conditioner is too bad, right?
Of course, this is just their suspicion.
They didn't think that Lu Yuan would install a second-hand air conditioner in his conference room.
After all, is Lu Yuan short of this money?
"Thank you for supporting my new movie. I am really grateful to you all, and at the same time I feel a little flattered. In fact, I was surprised by everyone's arrival. To be honest, I didn't actually consider placing advertisements in the movie. Yes, after all, as a real filmmaker, I have always focused on pure films... But, your enthusiasm and sincerity really moved me, well, after careful consideration by me and my team, we decided this time Insert two advertising spots at the beginning of the film..." After Lu Yuan came in from the house and looked at the dark crowd, he showed a difficult choice on his face, as if he had made a difficult decision.
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, and then they felt a little stressed.
Two ad slots?
so many people……
How is this divided?
In fact, the advertising space in Lu Yuan's movie is indeed like this.
Each movie only has an ad for the "Newbark" suit, and the others don't even have any sponsors at the end of the credits.
They didn't understand "Newbark" before, but since Lu Yuan's vice president was exposed, these people understood, and they all showed an ambiguous expression.
"Mr. Lu, I, Weimeng Sanitary Ware, are willing to pay 10 million yuan to buy your advertising space!" Just after Lu Yuan finished speaking, a middle-aged man in the Mediterranean rushed to the front and said this sentence: "We Weimeng Sanitary Ware Sanitary ware is well-known throughout China, and has a certain reputation overseas..."
"Mr. Li...do you still lack publicity for your Weimeng Sanitary Ware being so famous? Mr. Lu, Guangliang Clothing is willing to pay 11 million yuan! At the same time, we are willing to provide all kinds of costumes for the crew at cost price...
"Mr. Lu, I am Xu Fu from Zhongshan Trading. Mr. Lu. Our Zhongshan Trading covers many resources in various aspects, and at the same time we have certain connections in various countries... I am also very sincere when I come here this time. I am willing to Fifteen million on behalf of the company..."
"What? Fifteen million? Old Xu, you have to think carefully about whether the money invested in Zhongshan is worth it. You might as well take this money to retire and retire... In short, um, Mr. Lu, we Huaning also Willing to pay this price, Mr. Lu, Huaning Cable actually..."
"..."
Lu Yuan looked calm and unmoved on the surface, but in fact Lu Yuan was dizzy all over.
Yes!
He was almost on the verge of losing his footing.
If you choose any advertising sponsorship, you don't need money at all for this movie, and you can shoot it for free!
This shit!
Can he not get dizzy?
At this moment, he realized that the advertising industry turned out to be so profitable, it turned out to be...
so hi!
In the future, can I make a movie full of built-in advertisements?
At this moment, Lu Yuan had this idea in his heart!
"Mr. Lu, we are also very sincere. I am willing to pay 16 million..."
"I'm willing to pay 17 million..."
"..."
Lu Yuan became even more dizzy after hearing the voice.
Yes!
He originally thought that the advertising sponsorship was only a few million, at most ten million...
but……
Now a single advertising space has won 17 million!
This shit!
Still have to go crazy?
Lu Yuan only felt that his mind was buzzing, as if...
It's unreal like a dream!
"Mr. Lu... I'm willing to pay 20 million yuan for sponsorship advertising!" Qian Fuqiang yelled without saying a word, stood up with a chubby body, and looked at Lu Yuan with firm eyes.
Through his understanding of Lu Yuan these days, he knows that Lu Yuan likes to be straightforward, and he doesn't like to deal with fake things.
So he directly quoted his reserve price!
After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent...
Yes, silence!
20 million in exchange for a sponsored advertising space...
This is really...
The price is sky-high.
Even if these people are very capable, they will only invest about 17 million at most.
Although the difference between 17 million and 20 million is only three hundred...
But in fact the concept is completely different.
Lu Yuan's expression was still calm, but his heart twitched suddenly, and the feeling of unreality became heavier.
When he decided to make a decision on Mr. Qian, the door of the meeting room opened.
"Sorry, I'm late, Mr. Lu...Although I don't know how the meeting is going, I plan to exchange 30 million for an advertising space for you..." First Young Master Chen took off his sunglasses, showing a slight smile on his face. Looking at Lu Yuan with a smile.
Thirty million is like a small amount of money in his mouth.
At this moment, he looked unusually pretentious.
this moment……
His body seemed to exude a golden light again...
"..."
silence!
At this moment, the entire meeting room became even more silent!
thirty million!
A sponsorship ad for a movie?
Are you afraid you are crazy!
Burning money is not like this, you pretend to be...
"..."
boom!
Lu Yuan's head exploded!
Yes!
It exploded.
When he looked at Young Master Chen again, he actually felt that Young Master Chen's handsomeness was already irresistible to him, even if she was a woman, he guessed that he would post it right away...
thirty million!
Nima...
Earn a fortune!
Lu Yuan looked at Young Master Chen silently...
He couldn't resist his good looks, his handsomeness, his charm.
However, he felt that he was a man with money like dung.
"Young Master Chen, in fact, I am a pure filmmaker..."
"I know, but it takes investment to make a movie. I'm just contributing to our film industry in China... I hope that the special effects can be better, so that it can live up to the classics..."
"Well, Young Master Chen's love for the film industry really moved me..."
"This is what I should do. After all, I am also a Chinese..."
"I'm very moved by this young master's words!"
"Where, where..."
"Mr. Lu! I am also very supportive of Huaxia movies, I especially like that kind of magical movies!"
At this time, Qian Fuqiang also walked over with a fat body, with a serious expression on his face.
Although……
This guy never watches movies.
"Yes... yes... thank you two... yes, I also want to thank you all... thank you for your support, I appreciate all your kindness..."
"..."
"..."
……………………………
Venice International Film Festival.
The lights are bright.
All attention!
Li You stared at the stage, at everything...
"Congratulations to Director Li You for "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle", which won the jury award of this year's Venice Silver Bear Awards, congratulations!"
Li You's eyes widened!
Trembling with excitement!
