Chapter 490 A Movie that Loses 320 Million

Wheatfield Cafe.

Pu Jie looked at the WeChat message from Zhu Yinyin on his phone, feeling slightly confused.

"Huh? Zhu Yinyin? Why did she suddenly invite me to dinner?"

The two haven't contacted each other for a long time.

We haven't seen each other since Zhu Yinyin went to the crew to take over the role after graduation.

I know some bits and pieces of information, and they all came from Jiang Yuhan.

Last time, when Jiang Yuhan was taking a break, she told Pu Jie that Zhu Yinyin had signed a contract with Yang Mimi's studio and became one of their artists.

And yesterday, Pu Jie just met Yang Mimi.

Both.

While Pu Jie was deep in thought, the man across the coffee table said, "Pu Bian, is there something wrong?"

Pu Jie shook his head slightly: "It's a small matter, Director Wen, let's continue talking about the story of "The Ring"."

Pu Jie casually replied "Yes" and continued chatting with Director Wen Qiang.

Anyway, you won’t suffer any loss if you just take a look.

night.

Pu Jie saw Zhu Yinyin, who was more mature and attractive, blooming like a flower.

She raised her head and winked with her left eye: "You're here."

Just like in the classroom back then, Pu Jie's heart moved slightly.

The feeling I had seen in a movie in my previous life came back.

the next morning.

Pujie woke up from bed.

Not wearing any hair

The person next to me has already gotten up.

Pu Jie got up and tidied up a little before getting ready to go to the company.

"I bought you a Hong Kong-style soup dumpling. Can you try it?"

"good."

Han Ruyan went to buy breakfast in the morning.

Pu Jie got into the car and ate the breakfast Han Ruyan put on the back seat while thinking about last night's meeting.

Zhu Yinyin seemed to have been wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say it.

After reminiscing about old times, saying a few words to take care of each other, they dispersed.

This made Pu Jie a little confused.

Could it be that the appointment to meet him was just to reminisce about old times?

Can't figure it out.

Pu Jie shook his head and simply stopped thinking about it. If something really happened, he would always tell it, and he didn't want to explore anything.

It's not impossible to reveal things as the situation arises, but you have to wait for her to take the initiative.

If a woman like Zhu Yinyin, who is such a proactive and generous person, really wants something from him, she won't hide it.

In the past two days, after sorting out various things.

Now Pujie needs to do something big.

1 hour later.

Duoyu Company's large force set off.

Mr. Pu, Qi Fei, Dachun, Zhang Yang, Xiaoxing, Meng Xingkong and others, as well as more than 20 people from the finance department and legal advisers, went to the Science and Technology Park located on the North Fourth Ring Road in Kyoto.

"Today, buy a house! Let's go!"

Mr. Pu is in high spirits!

Just like at the beginning of every cycle, I feel like there is no money that I can’t lose!

In this cycle, Mr. Pu still implements one goal: losing money!

Becoming the richest man from a loss starts by buying a house!

Key customer signing room of Science and Technology Park.

The real estate company and Duoyu Company's legal counsel and finance are checking the terms and amounts between the two parties.

Today, the 12-story "H"-shaped building directly opposite the gate of the Science and Technology Innovation Park will be included in the assets of Duoyu Company!

Duoyu, a new Internet company that spans multiple fields, will have a unified office location.

Bad news: You no longer have to pay millions in rent to Hengtai Building every month!

Good news: directly change to a monthly loan repayment of 30 million!

Mr. Pu feels that he is better than Lawyer Zhang Wei.

After going through all the necessary procedures, Duoyu Company took over the building with a down payment of 100 million and a loan of 350 million repaid in 12 installments.

Including interest and bank preferential policies, the monthly loan repayment is 31.4 million yuan.

This is good news for Mr. Pu.

‘With monthly fixed expenses, it can significantly weaken the company’s profitability. If we can find such a big project again, this cycle will be stable. ’

According to Assistant Qi's budget, the current Duoyu Company's monthly net profit is around 60 million.

The loan is 31.4 million yuan, and there is about 30 million yuan that needs to be spent.

The company still has 90 million on hand, and Mr. Pu has to find a way to spend it.

"The pressure of losing money is getting bigger and bigger."

Duoyu Company's money is like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger, especially Mr. Pu's reckless "short-sighted" strategy before, which has allowed Duoyu Company to earn a lot of reputation and future, leading to more and more profits today.

"It seems that it's really time for "Shanghai Fortress" to be released!"

This movie is considered a miracle in the history of Chinese films in Pu Jie's previous life!

It refreshed people's understanding of science fiction films, also refreshed people's understanding of high investment, and also refreshed people's understanding of how much an actor can love beauty.

The investment was 360 million, the total box office was 120 million, the investor recovered 40 million, and the net loss was 320 million.

And starting from this film, the era of popular stars in mainland movies has come to an end. Capitalists have finally woken up and realized that popular stars cannot make them money, only good movies can.

So, this movie is of great significance!

His ability to single-handedly bury young actors, wake up ordinary people except for fans in the fandom, and alert the world can be called contemporary Lu Xun!

The most important thing is that you can really lose money!

How could Pu Jie let such a huge masterpiece go?

As long as he can replicate the successful failure experience of this movie in his previous life, which resulted in a loss of 320 million, he will basically win this cycle!

In the Science and Technology Park, Assistant Qi and her colleagues were still busy with the purchase of the building.

Xiaoxing, Zhang Yang, Dachun, Lao Meng and the others were so excited that they were happier to see the company take off than to get promoted themselves!

President Pu shook his head. He had already signed all the documents he was supposed to sign, and went downstairs alone to get some fresh air.

"Except for Dachun and Zhang Yang, all these people need to be punished."

However, President Pu has not yet thought of a very suitable way to reasonably bypass the system to sanction these struggling people.

We need to think about the countermeasures again.

"Wait until I start working on the movie "Shanghai Fortress" before I cause trouble for you."

Losing money is important.

President Pu walked in the park full of companies and found a newly opened coffee shop and sat in it.

"Give me a cup of cappuccino."

President Pu sat down and continued to think about investing in movies.

"At present, the biggest problem is that I haven't seen "Shanghai Fortress."

Yes, how could someone like Pu Jie, who had to wait for Douban to release the score in advance before going to the cinema, support the premiere of such a bad movie?

One day after its release, Douban scored 3.4.

Any normal person who knows this will not watch it again.

And who contributed to the subsequent box office, those who understand will understand.

If there were no fans in the fan circle, let alone 120 million box office, even 20 million would be considered a big loss.

Pu Jie has only seen sporadic videos and trailers complaining about this movie on the Internet.

He has not watched the whole movie.

Of course, this does not affect Pu Jie's previous life to scold this movie with others.

"But! Fortunately, I remember the points of this movie's failure. As long as I follow these points, I can also reproduce it in this world. This has been confirmed many times in this world."

Even if Pu Jie himself has watched a movie many times, if he writes the script, it cannot be the same as the original, but he knows the key points and plot, and finally optimizes it, and it can be successfully filmed.

"The Man from Earth", "Resident Evil 1" are all fine, and "Shanghai Fortress" is definitely fine.

"First, the male lead must be a young and handsome guy! And he must be the kind of guy who can't mess up his hair even in battle;"

"Second, the propaganda is hard science fiction, but it must be mainly emotional, so that the audience who likes to watch science fiction can eat a mouthful of shit;"

"Finally, invest money in science fiction special effects, but it must be bad, not to mention 50 cents special effects, at most 1 yuan! That's not right. This way you can't spend so much money. It's best to spend money, but it looks cheap, that's right!"

"As long as these three points are met, it will definitely be another Shanghai Fortress!"

Pu Jie is quite confident.

Although he hasn't seen this movie, he knows all the important points that people complain about this movie.

After all, he also followed the trend and scolded it for a while.

Haven't seen pigs run, but haven't eaten pork?

In the cafe, Pu Jie wrote down all the ideas he came up with, waiting to start working on them after returning.

"Who will be the director and screenwriter?"

"Zhang Yang? Dachun? Or. Yuan Hua?"

These brothers are all terrible at screenwriting, especially after coming to work at Duoyu Company, Dachun and Zhang Yang basically didn't study hard, Yuan Hua is a little better, but not much.

In theory, all three brothers can make a terrible movie.

But in practice, there are many problems.

First of all, Zhang Yang, the last movie "For Fans" stabbed him in the back, the original stupid version of the script was changed into a masterpiece! Who can he go to for justice?

And Dachun, he listened too much to the advice of his subordinates! Just look at this "Ordinary People's Cultivation Records" animation, it was him who let it go, and didn't design it himself, which led to the final profit.

Finally, Yuan Hua Pu Jie didn't know how much people would change after the ups and downs. What if the legendary blackening is three points useful? Yuan Hua had a great enlightenment, but he made a movie, a piece of deification, and he just waited for death. This is not safe either.

Let's wait for Yuan Hua to do his Duoyu Manke magazine to see how good it is. If he really fails, then entrust him with the important task.

"But if we invite screenwriters from outside, we don't know their background. Who knows which screenwriter will become a god and which screenwriter will continue to fail? This thing is really unpredictable."

Pu Jie has been stabbed in the back too many times. He always feels that someone wants to harm him and make a lot of money for the company quietly.

After struggling for an afternoon, Pu Jie finally called Zhang Yang over.

"Zhang Yang, can I trust you?"

Zhang Yang said nothing, and patted his chest to assure: "Brother Jie, you can rest assured about our brotherly relationship. With my help, the sisters-in-law will never find each other!"

Pu Jie: "."

"Ahem! It's not this matter, it's the company. I have an extremely important task to give you! Give it to your production department!"

Zhang Yang's hands trembled when he heard it, and then he said excitedly: "Really? Brother Jie, you really are! I'm crying! Our production department hasn't filmed a movie for more than half a year, just waiting for your order to take off directly on the spot! What are you going to shoot?"

Pu Jie: "An epic science fiction film!"

Zhang Yang frowned slightly: "I'm not good at this. I originally planned to write the script myself. If it's a science fiction film, let's find a professional screenwriter from outside? I remember that the director knows several big names in the industry. I will contact them tomorrow!"

Pu Jie was overjoyed: "It's good that I'm not good at it!"

Zhang Yang: "Ah?"

Pu Jie continued: "Well, what I mean is that it doesn't matter if you're not good at it. Doesn't it mean you're good at making a movie? People always have to make progress, and they can't stay in their comfort zone and not come out. Look at Dachun, After finishing screenwriting and making games, which one failed? "How can you be worse than him?"

When Zhang Yang heard this, he could still bear it: "That must be impossible! If Dachun can do it, I can do it too!"

But then he felt a little guilty: "But Brother Jie, if you invest in a science fiction film, it should be a lot of money, right? If you lose the money, it will have a great impact on the company, or you should be safe this time. I will find a screenwriter for you from outside, and then I will follow you to learn a film first."

Pu Jie patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder: "There is no need to discuss this matter anymore. I have already decided that you will be the one to write the script! Is it important whether you pay or not? Not important! It's mine to witness the unlimited potential in your body being activated. pleasure!"

Zhang Yang clenched his fists and straightened his body: "Okay! Since you said so, Brother Jie, I will try my best!"

"By the way, Brother Jie, how much does it cost to invest in our new movie?"

Pu Jie raised the corner of his mouth: "360 million."

"Clang!"

Zhang Yang fell onto the chair and fell to the ground with the chair.

After 3 days, the procedures for purchasing the property were completed.

November 11th.

On Double Eleven, Duoyu Company obtained its own group office building.

Assistant Qi, who had been prepared long ago, raised the four large steel frame characters along the H-shaped building:

Multi-fish group.

The unified name of the company was officially changed from Duoyu Company to Duoyu Group.

A few months ago, Mr. Pu arranged for his assistants to find someone to design this 12-story building.

Now that the design drawing has been delivered, it is completely planned according to Mr. Pu’s intention.

The internal space is designed to support many professional disciplines such as ergonomics, fishing techniques, and advanced placement studies.

After Mr. Pu’s design, anyone who dares to enter will quickly get lost in this happy headquarters building and no longer have the heart to work.

Standing downstairs, watching the construction team burning incense, Mr. Pu showed a wise smile: "I don't believe you can't handle this?"

"start!"

Following Mr. Pu’s order, the construction teams came in one after another!

The construction period this time was strictly controlled by Assistant Qi to 2 months.

In order to allow the employees to move into the Moyu Building or Buduoyu Building that he carefully prepared for them as quickly as possible, Mr. Pu spent a lot of money to select ultra-low-pollution environmentally friendly materials. They can all move in one month after the construction is completed.

Mr. Pu also took the opportunity to spend more money.

Originally, the company had 190 million on its books. It paid 100 million down to buy a house, renovated the 12-story building and spent the remaining 90 million. The company's assets were immediately cleared!

“Perfect start!”

Next, Mr. Pu doesn’t need to take too many actions. It’s OK to focus all his energy on how to make "Shanghai Fortress" and update "Lord of Fools".

"How can I lose this heavyweight money-losing blockbuster where Tianhu starts with me?"

"The whole court is full of traitors, who can stop me?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Mr. Pu let out a long-lost hearty laugh.

Assistant Qi next to him looked at Mr. Pu thoughtfully.

‘It seems that if you want Mr. Pu to be happy, you must at least pay a down payment for a building, that is, you must have a profit of 100 million. When you go back, you must inform all the managers of the news so that they will know better in the future. ’
