Chapter 118 The More Money You Make, the Poorer You Get



When the profit exceeds 100%, some people dare to take risks.

When the profits exceed 200%, some people dare to trample on any law in the world!

In the eyes of some people, things are only worth it, not right or wrong.

Unfortunately, many times they can only see the benefits but not the risks.

A month later, the final box office results of "Crazy Diamond" were released.

130 million!

Although many people expected that this movie would likely exceed 100 million yuan at the box office.

But when it really did this, everyone couldn't help but burst into exclamations.

The success of this film can be said to be of extraordinary significance.

It is not only of great significance to Chen Bei and his company, but also has a far-reaching impact on the entire Chinese film industry.

It once again proves that whether a movie is good or not has nothing to do with how much investment it has or whether it has big-name actors.

Its success proves that more people like the movie itself.

As a film practitioner, what we should think about is how to tell a good story, rather than doing something empty and useless.

Its success also proves that the art form of film is not the exclusive domain of some people. As long as you have a dream and shoot with your heart, you can still produce moving works.

At the same time, it also proves that by cooperating with Chen Bei, one can become famous and make money. He has become a hot commodity in the circle.

130 million!

After deducting costs, they made a net profit of at least 100 million yuan.

As for how the 100 million will be divided later, it will depend on the contract.

No matter what, as long as we make money, everyone is happy.

Why is it so difficult to attract investment for making movies? Because the risks are really high.

China produces hundreds of films every year. Never mind whether they perform well at the box office or not, just look at how many of them actually make it into theaters.

There are so many messy things involved, so many investors will not choose to invest in movies.

Being able to make money is a good thing. First, it ensures that they do not lose money. Second, it proves their vision.

So now many people are holding their money, waiting to see when Chen Bei will make a new movie.

At least for Chen Bei, he doesn't have to worry about investment for now.

What worries him now is that he is making money too slowly!

Yes, although we made 100 million this time, it seems like a lot.

But after everyone divided it, only about 30 million actually fell into Chen Bei's hands.

This number seems like a lot, and if you use it to live, you will definitely be very wealthy.

But the problem is that Chen Bei has opened a company now. As long as the company is running, he has to keep investing money in it.

If 30 million were really used to build the company, it would be no different from a small wave.

Now the company's music department and film and television department have been officially established, but the two departments are short of staff.

If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to recruit troops now, what are we waiting for?

But you have to spend money to recruit soldiers and buy horses. Isn’t it said that food and fodder must be prepared before troops move?

If you don't spend some real money on some truly capable people, why would they come to you for help?

If you think it costs too much money, you can train new people, but training new people always takes time.

Speaking of hardware, the Film and Television Department and the Music Department strongly requested the establishment of a professional dance studio.

In theory, this doesn't cost much money, but after the dance studio is established, the relevant supporting facilities must also be installed.

Dance teachers, body management and shaping teachers, various professional equipment, and subsequent maintenance all cost money.

The music department feels that the current studio can no longer meet their needs, and they need to add at least another recording studio with the same equipment.

The film and television department wants to purchase new photographic equipment, and they are quite boastful, saying that it is world-class.

"Fuck the world's best! I don't know if the quality and technology of the stuff they want are world-class, but the price is definitely top-notch!"

These are just some simple requests from these departments, not including other miscellaneous expenses.

In short, when Chen Bei learned that the box office exceeded 100 million, he was very happy and even started to consider whether he should buy a car or move to a bigger house.

As a result, after paying taxes and spending the money he should have spent, he realized that the amount of money that actually went into his pocket was really very small.

No wonder when counting assets, they are divided into fixed assets and current assets. Those who look rich may not necessarily be able to come up with large sums of money.

Chen Bei has been looking very bitter and resentful these past two days. He just doesn't understand why. He didn't intend to make such a big deal at the beginning. He is the type of person who is content with a small fortune.

Why did he suddenly spread out the plates?

Seeing Chen Bei's expression, Xiaobai came up and said cautiously:

"Dad, what are you worried about? Are you worried that this movie is making too much money?"

"It's just a small goal. How can you say that you're making a lot of money? Girl, you come from a wealthy family after all. Please don't let me look down on you. Can you have some vision?"

"No wonder they say that in the eyes of the capitalists, the entertainment industry is just a toy. Now it seems to be true. With the speed at which they make money, they're not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the bigwigs in the capitalist world!"

The little white guy is dumbfounded. How long does it take to make a movie, and how much does it cost? Are you not satisfied with this profit efficiency? Are you really not being Versailles?
