Chapter 866 Investing in War Movies

The Japanese regard the visit of Hollywood stars as the top priority in the entertainment industry. Not only the entertainment industry, but even the Japanese foreign ministers also came to meet these stars, shaking hands one by one, bowing down to say hello. Their attitude towards Hollywood is quite good Yes, and when he shook hands with Zhen Fan, he clasped his hands tightly and praised repeatedly: "You are an outstanding representative of Asian cultural communication. You are welcome to come to Japan frequently to strengthen cultural exchanges between China and Japan, as well as between Japan and the United States."

"Okay, no problem!" Zhen Fan nodded, he would not be rude when it comes to etiquette, "Of course, I will try my best." I took a photo and posted it on the Internet. If you look at the photo, the Japanese foreign minister is nodding and bowing to Zhen Fan, looking like a humble slave, so many people in the country feel that they are really flattering the Chinese. morale.

Of course they just saw this picture by coincidence, but it is still very popular in China. This picture has become a classic picture, and it has also become one of the most embarrassing pictures of political leaders in various countries. It is often heated in China. As a result, Zhen Fan's reputation in the country was imperceptibly elevated by this foreign minister. Of course, these are all things to come.

During the reception, Zhen Fan chatted with Feng Daran and others in China. Of course, Feng Daran and others would not let go of making fun of Zhen Fan like this. Several people laughed for a while, then hung up the phone, and then Christine called again: "Why did you go to Japan to kiss Japanese women?"

"I'm a movie fan!" Zhen Fan explained.

"That's fine, kiss it and kiss it. But... is this the beginning of conquering Japan? You can hide and earn some box office in the future!" Christine laughed, this woman's thinking is really different, "catch I won the women's box office. I grabbed the men's box office, so it's a good deal!"

"Of course, I'm your fiancé. If you add your charm, I think it will be even crazier! There is a saying in China that when a husband and wife are of the same mind, their profits cut through gold!" Zhen Fan said with a smile, "So our The partner's movie will definitely sell well. From now on, you have to find a script that suits us!"

"Okay, hang up!" Christine was also very straightforward. He hung up as soon as he said it. Before Zhen Fan could react, he heard the blind voice coming from the phone, and couldn't help but twist his mouth. At this time, he saw Angelina came over. She looked at Zhen Fan, held a glass of red wine, and raised it to signal Zhen Fan.

Zhen Fan also picked up the cup and responded, and then Angelina came over, stood face to face with Zhen Fan, blinked and said, "Why are you here alone? Bit and the others don't give up chatting with Japanese beauties Opportunistic. They're looking for opportunities! Women...who doesn't like successful men?"

What Angelina said was straightforward, Zhen Fan couldn't help but smiled awkwardly and said: "I was about to find the target, but accidentally, the target came by itself, isn't that right?" He winked at Angelina blink.

"Haha. I like to hear that. I'm your target? So... I'm still a beauty in your eyes? Well... I'm really happy to hear this. Come on, let's have a toast!" Angie Lina raised her glass, then touched Zhen Fan lightly, making a light "ding".

Angelina's plump red lips took a sip of the red wine lightly, and when those sexy red lips licked the rim of the wine glass, they were so coquettish, which made Zhen Fan look sideways, and then smiled: "If you are here again With all the drinking in front of me, maybe I'll go after you with all my might, Angie!"

"I'll wait, will you?" Angelina smiled slightly, and then said, "One thing, I'm preparing a movie recently, it's about World War II, an American pilot... in a Japanese POW camp story, are you interested?"

Zhen Fan nodded as soon as he heard it: "Of course I'm interested, do you want me to play a Japanese in it?"

"Uh...it's best if you want to, but...you may not, because I know some grievances and grievances between you and the Japanese, so...you know, I have already chosen an actor."

"You're right." Zhen Fan nodded, then sighed and said, "Then you told me this, you must want me to invest, right? And you must have encountered trouble in financing, right? "

Angelina couldn't help but giggled, then gave Zhen Fan a blank look and said, "Well, I can't hide anything from you, I have indeed encountered a problem with my funds. Because of the opposition from some people in Japan, so... ...Some investors have withdrawn, will you help me?"

"Well, I've always been used to being a good person, so this time is no exception. Tell me, Angie, how much more do you need?" Zhen Fan said without any hesitation.

"100 million US dollars, if you take out 100 million US dollars, then I can give you more returns!" Angelina smiled, "Do you have confidence in this investment? Or do you have confidence in me? "

"100 million dollars?" Zhen Fan widened his eyes, then looked at Angelina in surprise, shook his head and said, "Angie, 100 million dollars, I can almost invest in this movie alone. And I guarantee that there will be more Come on a lot! You really dare to speak, there are too many, I won’t consider this! And the current market rate of return for war movies is not too high, business is business, no way, Angie!”

"Okay, 80 million, how about it? 80 million dollars!" Angelina smiled, as if it was true, "The film company's investment funds are in place, but there is still a big gap, if I can't get it together If so, the film company will withdraw its capital within a certain period of time, and you have the heart to watch my movie die like this?" Angelina cast a wink at Zhen Fan.

"Eight thousand.[,!] Ten thousand is still too much!" Zhen Fan shook his head, this is the lion's big mouth, and he has to pay back the money on the spot. Angelina regards him as a business partner, so he should also use it for business He believes that even if the two cannot reach an agreement, they will not be unhappy with each other because of this matter. Friends are friends and have nothing to do with business.

"Okay, okay, don't get me wrong, 50 million U.S. dollars, no less, if it is less, I won't be able to make the film. Do you know how much the film company will invest in me? Thirty million U.S. dollars, this is What kind of movie can be made?" Angelina sighed and said with a sad face.

"If I invest 50 million US dollars in you, then your budget will be 80 million US dollars. As far as I know, the investment for this movie was about 70 million US dollars." Zhen Fan shrugged and said to Angelina said, "So your budget is already high enough, I can only invest you fifteen million dollars at most."

"Fifteen million dollars? God, that's too little. Do you know how old the seventy million dollars was?" Angelina couldn't help but shook her head and said no, "No, no, no, then It's the 20th century. Now it's the 21st century. Don't you feel that it's a century away from that old film? Even Yusen Wu in 2002 has invested 100 million yuan Twenty million dollars."

Zhen Fan couldn't help shaking his head and said: "In business talk, Angie, the investment in war movies is too high, and the return is definitely too little. Do you know what the consequences will be? The dismal performance at the box office caused MGM's stock to plummet. In addition, Robert Levin, the president of distribution, took the blame and resigned. Do you know that the more money you invest, the bigger the pit in front of you?"

"Okay, okay, $40 million!" Angelina raised her glass to Zhen Fan, trying to clink glasses with Zhen Fan, "Let's celebrate, our cooperation is successful!"

"Wait, no!" Zhen Fan turned slightly, raised the wine glass in his hand, and did not let Angelina touch it, "I haven't agreed yet, 40 million dollars is not enough, well, if it is 30 million dollars, then I'm fine with that, and you know I've been a little tight on money lately because... I'm building some projects too!" And he raised his glass.

"If you agree, let's touch each other!" Zhen Fan looked sideways at Angelina.

Angelina nodded, and then touched Zhen Fan with a wine glass: "Okay, happy cooperation, who do I need to contact? Let's talk about investment. I heard that you have established a team!"

"Yes, can I give it to you, give me the phone!" Zhen Fan said, ticking his finger at Angelina, then took the phone, and wrote Melissa's phone number on it, "You call Discuss this call with Melissa, uh, it's Melissa Bullock." He said and changed the phone to Angelina.

"Happy cooperation!" Zhen Fan raised his glass and took a sip.

"Happy cooperation!" Angelina also raised her glass with a smile, took a sip, then put the glass down, and blinked at Zhen Fan, "There is a dance floor over there, do you want to dance with me?" ?"

"Of course, it's a great honor!" Zhen Fan also put the wine glass on the tray of a passing waiter, then stretched out his hand, gently squeezed Angelina's hand, and walked into the dance floor next to it. There was music on the dance floor The sound has already sounded, Zhen Fan gently hugged Angelina's waist, the two of them spread their hands, and danced lightly on the dance floor.

"Do you think 60 million can make a very good war movie? You must not be the only investor?" Zhen Fan looked at Angelina and smiled, "You are very cunning, so I don't Believe in the ultimate money of your investment!"

"Well, I can tell you that my capital, including yours, is already 80 million dollars, and the film company invested 50 million dollars in me." Angelina smiled slightly and blinked at Zhen Fan, " You got scammed by me, but... you have to trust me, your investment will pay off!"

"If you can get 300 million U.S. dollars in the global box office, I will be able to use my investment!" Zhen Fan smiled, "Did you know that in China, war movies are heavyweight movies at the box office, if your If the movie is going to be released in China, you can ask me for help. Of course, this is also helping myself, if the box office is better, of course, the more I will earn!"

"Okay, I also hope you can help me find a good film distributor in China!" Angelina said as she gently moved her face closer, and then kissed Zhen Fan's cheek.
