Chapter 750 Dad
Carmel looked at Zhen Fan and shook his head. His funding gap is quite large. This time he has very big ambitions, just like creating a Pandora planet. This time he plans to create a bigger world. In this In the world, not only a corner of the planet Pandora is shown, but also the whole picture of the whole planet, and all of these need money to pile up. ```
"I still need a budget of 200 million US dollars, so the investment of this film will exceed 400 million US dollars, can you help me?" Carmel smiled at Zhen Fan, "I am an ambitious person, I want to Do your best, of course...the rewards will also be huge, you know the final box office of my "Avatar"." When he said this, he was full of confidence, even a little arrogant, in Hollywood, He has this capital.
"Of course I know!" Zhen Fan has also paid attention to this movie, and also knows that its final box office is locked at 2.78 billion US dollars. This is by far the highest-grossing Hollywood movie. one. Even his previous blockbuster "Titanic" can't compare.
"Then why are you hesitating?" Carmel smiled, "The reason why I came to you first is because... I trust you, you will not be like those people who give money and want to point fingers in the movie, I say so , you should understand that this is a relationship of mutual trust, Zhen—help me this time, together we can realize the greatest dream of the film industry!"
"How much money do I need?" Zhen Fan looked at Carmel, he really wanted to invest in Carmel's movie, because Carmel's genius-like ideas and his genius-like talent, so he decided to go with him Take a gamble. But if there are too many funds, he still has to think carefully.
"150 million dollars!" Carmel raised his finger at Zhen Fan and shook it. "I put in 100 million dollars myself, and if it still exceeds the budget, I hope you will add another 50 million dollars!" Carmel smiled at Zhen Fan.
"Is it just the two of us? You didn't bring in other sponsors?" Zhen Fan looked at Carmel suspiciously. He couldn't believe that he didn't find any other investors.
"I don't trust them, I don't want those asses ruining my movie, tmd these bastards. They all want to get in, but I refuse!" Carmel laughed, full of emotion as always Said confidently. "So...they're all kicked out by me, and it's just the two of us in this movie!"
"Well, since this is the case, as an investor, I hope you will give me a better share ratio. I don't need to get involved in your movie, since you trust me so much, but I will compare with you on the interests, I I will ask for a very suitable profit point!" Zhen Fan looked at Carmel and smiled sinisterly, "You make your reputation, and I earn my profit, how about it?"
Carmel frowned, and tapped rhythmically with his fingers on the table. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he looked up at Zhen Fan. He said firmly, "Okay, I promise you, I will give you a better share ratio.
"
"I will send my team to negotiate with you. I am not good at this, but I will let someone who really knows it come. You don't have to be polite with me. This is a deal. There is a saying in China called 'business is business', So I won't mix it with other things!" Zhen Fan really got up, nodded and smiled at Carmel, "I should go, Mr. Carmel, thank you for your trust in me, goodbye! "
Carmel also nodded and smiled at Zhen Fan and stretched out his hand: "I wish us a happy cooperation!"
"Of course, I hope our cooperation can bring us happy money!" Zhen Fan shook hands with Carmel, then turned and left, saying as he walked, "Tomorrow morning, my people will look for you , I won’t come over here!” He was about to leave very coolly as he said that.
"Wait, Zhen, I forgot to tell you something!" Carmel suddenly stopped Zhen Fan.
"What?" Zhen Fan stopped after walking a few steps, looking at Carmel.
"Miss Bingbing participated in the competition for the role of the fifth part of "Transformers", I think this is a very good thing, you know I also invested money in that movie, plus I have a good relationship with Michael, So...he finally chose Miss Bingbing, so...I hope you can tell her the news yourself!" Carmel smiled, "I don't know if those rumors are true, but I hope you can replace me Do this!"
Zhen Fan was stunned, and then looked at Carmel, this guy... must know that he also invested money in the fifth part of "Transformers", and he recommended the producer to come here, although not many, but because of this Maybe he misunderstood that he was trying to promote Fei Bingbing to the top. This was a misunderstanding, Zhen Fan never wanted to have a foot in this movie for Fei Bingbing from the beginning to the end.
But if you misunderstand, just misunderstand, why don't you do such a favor that goes along with the flow? Zhen Fan nodded to Carmel, and then left Shi Shiran.
Regarding Carmel asking for help, Zhen Fan is not so arrogant. He thinks that Carmel has really taken a fancy to his talent, or is staring at his own money bag. What he does is more like a show of favor. . Carmel has never lacked people to invest in, and he has never lacked trustworthy people. He is the Tyrannosaurus Rex of Hollywood. He has no investors who can control his will for what he wants to do. So... what does he want to do?
Zhen Fan will not think about these issues for the time being, because investing in Carmel is also an attempt for him to invest the surplus funds in various industries to form new growth points. Why should I refuse something that makes money? What's more, the surplus funds in my hands are far more than 200 million US dollars. Counting the accumulation of the past few years, Zhen Fan's liquid capital alone has reached more than 900 million US dollars. And that's without counting the much higher value of the vineyard's winery factory real estate, or the invisible value of the clinic, which is limitless.
He didn't know this number at first, but when it came to investing, Melissa told him, and she suggested that Zhen Fan form a special team to manage his money. So as to carry out professional investment and reasonable allocation, so that all the surplus funds can be used reasonably.
Back at the villa, Zhen Fan saw that the villa was very lively. Two little girls were running on the lawn, and several women were sitting on chairs on the lawn, watching them play with a smile, chatting while drinking tea, Others were eating biscuits. And the laughter from the two little girls from time to time filled the faces of several women with warm smiles.
"Hey, Claire, take Maria over there and wash her hands, God, you really shouldn't be taking her to play in the dirt." Annie said loudly to Claire, and then turned to the pool Over there waved.
"I'll go and see them!" Melissa stood up and walked over, "We should hire a preschool teacher, Maria is a smart little girl."
"Zhen——" when Melissa led the two little girls and walked over, she saw Zhen Fan driving in, and greeted Zhen Fan through the open car window, "Hey, Maria, Say hi to Daddy!"
"Dad?" Maria looked at Zhen Fan with dazed eyes. Obviously, this little girl had never met her father, and she didn't know who her father was. Her mother never mentioned this word. So he asked blankly, "Did you eat dad for dinner?"
"Uh—" Melissa was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing with a "puchi". Zhen Fan stopped the car with an embarrassed expression, then opened the car door and walked in front of the three of them, squatted down, stretched out his hand and stroked Maria's little head and said with a smile, "Maria, dad is a human being, not food, I am your father, and my father is the one who plays with you, cooks delicious food for you, and grows up with you, and this person is me!"
Maria obviously couldn't accept such a powerful message. Seeing Maria's ignorant look, Melissa couldn't help but patted her forehead, smiled at Zhen Fan and said, "God, she's only three years old, you Tell her this?" So he squatted down and looked at Maria and said, "He is your father, you have to call him Dad!"
"Father—" Maria called Zhen Fan obediently.
Well, such a simple and rough education is the most successful education. Maria really obeyed, and called Zhen Fan "Dad", Zhen Fan became happy, and kissed Maria hard on the cheek.
"This is a smart baby!" Zhen Fan said with a smile, this feeling is very strange. Then he looked at Claire next to him. The little girl was looking at Zhen Fan with tears in her eyes, and the little bean was about to fall off.
"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Zhen Fan hugged Claire into his arms distressedly, and quickly comforted her and said, "Why are you crying? Tell me, who bullied you?" Zhen Fan also hasn't seen it for a long time It's Claire, this little girl has grown up, and she's become more and more beautiful, such a sad appearance, one can't help but love her.
"I...I don't have a father anymore...he doesn't want me anymore!" Claire's tears finally fell, she looked at Zhen Fan sobbing, "I want a father..." Then she went to Zhen Fan snuggled into his arms.
Maria looked up at Claire. She felt close to Claire from the bottom of her heart. She never played with the children and stayed at home alone when her mother was away. The same goes for Claire, she has no siblings and is often alone, so when the two of them meet, there is a natural sense of intimacy.
Maria quietly stretched out her hand, grabbed Claire's hand, and said softly, "Don't cry, don't cry." With the other hand, she took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket. This is the reward Melissa gave her, rewarding her obedient chocolate candies. With a chubby hand, he stuffed the chocolate candy into Claire's hand.
Zhen Fan couldn't help sighing, hugged Claire and Maria in his arms, kissed each other, and then said with a smile, "So...does Claire want to see Dad?"
"No, I don't want to, I want another father, just like Maria!" Claire suddenly put her small face close to Zhen Fan's ear, and the hot air from her nose made Zhen Fan itch, "Uncle Zhen , I don’t want to call you uncle, can I call you father like Maria?” (To be continued..)u
