He is a godly tycoon, and also a director.
With capital in his left hand and talent in his right, he becomes the uncrowned king of the entertainment circle!
A group that's not very ...
After the script of "Wolf Warrior 1" was written, Lu Hao immediately registered the project on the website of the Film Association, and began the crew preparation and early casting.
This movie is slightly different from his previous movies.
Because several companies jointly invested in the filming, the process seemed more complicated.
When we were eating before, the cakes were divided very clearly.
DreamWorks will invest 50%, and the remaining investment amount will be divided among the other companies.
However, what surprised Lu Hao was...
Someone stood me up!
Moreover, there is more than one!
Except for Dong Yuan from Starry Sky Film and Television and Fang Jing from Seven Heroes Studio, almost all the others have canceled their plans!
First, the CEO of Beidou Film and Television called in person.
It is said that the company’s credit limit was suddenly reduced by the bank recently, and the outstanding loans need to be repaid in advance, so the capital chain is tight and it is estimated that this movie cannot be invested.
He expressed his full apologies and wished DreamWorks prosperity, Lu Hao all the best, and the new movie a long-lasting box office success.
He said a lot of nice things, then slipped away.
Secondly, there is Gushen Film and Television.
The reason is also that banks are settling accounts at the end of the year, the capital chain is tight, and investment is impossible.
Lu Hao laughed.
What's up?
The funding issues of your two companies are handled by the same bank?
What a coincidence?
What made Lu Hao even more speechless was Tianle Media’s reason.
It is said that the blockchain cryptocurrency the company invested in plummeted, causing heavy losses.
This is even funnier.
With this IQ, it's really hard for you that the company has survived until now.
However, after receiving so many calls in a row, Lu Hao realized that there must be someone behind the scenes, otherwise such a thing would never happen.
Do you really think DreamWorks is made of clay?
Originally, making this movie was DreamWorks taking them out to play, not begging them to play.
Now, play this?
To be fair, Lu Hao doesn't need their investment money at all.
It’s better not to invest.
Lu Hao is fully confident that the script of "Wolf Warrior 1" will definitely be a big hit after his own modifications.
If there are fewer companies sharing the profits, you will naturally get more.
However, it is really uncomfortable to hold this breath.
Lu Hao must find out the root cause of these companies' sudden withdrawal of investment.
After calling Fatty Dong and Fang Jing, Lu Hao finally understood the whole story.
The root lies in——
The newly appointed president of Qilin Film and Television, Jiang Qianfan.
And the superhero movie "Chinese Hero" invested 500 million yuan by Kylin Pictures.
These companies were persuaded by Jiang Qianfan's alliances to give up their investment in DreamWorks' "Wolf Warrior 1" and at the same time jointly invest in "Chinese Heroes".
after all.
One is a patriotic theme with a strong main theme but little chance of making money.
One is a superhero theme that is very likely to sell well and even become a super IP.
Which is more important?
Any normal person can see it at a glance.
Plus Jiang Qianfan’s personal background.
Jiang Qianfan used to work in Hollywood and had already achieved financial independence, owning several independent studios.
Before Qilin Film and Television went public, he acquired nearly 10% of Qilin Film and Television's original shares through various investment methods.
His connections, relationships, and background in the entire entertainment industry are also extremely powerful.
In terms of wealth, his personal wealth is about the same as Lu Hao's.
In terms of background, he crushes Lu Hao.
In terms of personal connections, they are equally overwhelming.
Considering so many reasons...
A flock of pigeons fluttered up above Lu Hao's head.
…
In the office.
After making a phone call and sorting out the cause and effect of the matter, Lu Hao smoked silently, quietly feeling a sense of crisis.
Make movies, I’m good at it.
But I am really a little weak in these despicable business practices.
Recently, Lu Hao has been reading Selected Works of Mao Zedong with Shi Lei, and a sentence from the book came to his mind: Make our friends more numerous and our enemies fewer.
I am already moving towards this trend.
But it seems... a little inferior to others?
Thinking about this and smoking a few cigarettes, Lu Hao gradually calmed down and regained his composure.
It doesn't matter.
Then continue to grow.
In fact, my speed is already fast enough.
The fact that a company that has been established for less than two years deserves such attention from a behemoth like Kylin Pictures is enough to prove the status of DreamWorks.
However, after all, their foundation is shallow and their development time is short, so they cannot compare with these old tycoons.
But anyway...
In the end, it still depends on the work to speak for itself.
…
With a strong desire in his heart, Lu Hao accelerated the preparations of the crew.
"Wolf Warrior 1" is a big drama, involving many scenes, especially war scenes, which requires repeated communication with the military region.
Although we have established contact with the military region through the relationship with the propaganda department leaders and obtained permission from the superiors, many specific matters still need to go through the procedures.
This movie will definitely not be released before the New Year.
However, it is still possible to take advantage of this period of time to finish filming all the literary scenes.
End of November.
"Wolf Warrior 1" started filming in a low-key manner. No press conference was held. Instead, a few announcements were released and promoted on Weibo.
In sharp contrast to this is "Heroes of China".
