"So, Mr. Lu has decided to vote for me?"
Seeing Lu Hao throw out two million without blinking an eye and tell the man to get out, and wait for them to leave, Jia Yu suddenly asked with a little nervousness and full of expectation.
As he spoke, he pulled out a small medicine box from his schoolbag, took out a half-used tube of white medicine, took a hissing breath of cool air, and carefully applied it to his face.
This is not the first time that investors have hit me.
However, no matter how hurt we are, we still have to continue making the movie.
"Throw it."
Lu Hao smiled.
After applying the ointment, Jia Yu wiped his hands casually, sat upright, looking like he was defending a graduation thesis, waiting for the next words.
It would be great if I could get close to this person.
It’s not just because Lu Hao is rich.
Also because Lu Hao understands movies.
“Will there be a sequel to ‘The Great Knight’?”
Lu Hao asked thoughtfully.
When Lu Hao saw the part where the hero broke the law with force, he actually had such a premonition in his heart.
Zhou Xia's story just dug a hole.
As for how big this pit is, it’s hard to say.
"Yes, but the concept behind it is not yet mature. I want to release the Great Knight first to test the waters, and then snowball one by one."
This is a safe approach.
Whether it's popularity, box office, technology or team, it all has to be accumulated bit by bit.
It is true.
Hearing this, Lu Hao had an idea in his mind, "Can you give me a brief introduction?"
"certainly."
"The source of this idea is actually martial arts. In the film industry, traditional martial arts films are dead. There are no martial arts anymore. So the core of the entire series of films is deconstruction and anti-routine."
"It's all about black humor. We dreamed of becoming omnipotent heroes when we were little, but when we grew up, we were busy running around for a living and were pinned down."
"I also conceived a female knight character who dreamed of becoming a domineering and ruthless killer since she was a child, but when she grew up, she became a surgeon, wearing a white coat by day and a black leather jacket by night. Hehe..."
Lu Hao was speechless.
Hehe, this is very spiritual.
It reveals a vulgar style that is suitable for otakus.
Thinking about that scene, it seems a bit exciting.
"Let's make the Great Knight first."
Lu Hao is still optimistic about Jia Yu, mainly because of his unique style.
The Great Knight will definitely become popular.
This project is still worth investing in.
When investing, we first invest in people and secondly, invest in projects. We cast a wide net and focus on training.
Anyway, I have money now, so I can invest in a few similar studios without any financial pressure.
As for the results, whoever can hold on will continue to increase the bet.
"I'll invest 20 million to acquire you and your team. We won't merge you into DreamWorks. We'll establish you as an independent film studio, called Turtle Studios. I'll give you 30% of the equity."
If you need money or resources in the later stages, please ask me for them.
"What do you think?"
Lu Hao said so.
Suddenly I felt a little bit high-spirited.
Unknowingly, I also have the power to change the fate of others.
"I... am so grateful to Mr. Lu."
Jia Yu's face was full of excitement.
This thigh is firmly held.
Twenty million!
How many lenses can be made?
"That's settled then."
After finishing the business, supper and wine were served. Jia Yu ran to the next room and pulled Li Dan over to liven up the atmosphere.
He didn't sleep either.
Still writing the manuscript there.
“Twenty million!!!”
After hearing the transaction amount between the two, Li Dan was withdrawn for a while, then looked at Lu Hao and said with a playful smile: "Brother, do you think I have the talent to make movies?"
"Actually, I can write a good script, too. I've already thought of it. The title is 'Minotaur'. It's about a bull on the Mongolian grasslands that, for some mysterious reason, mutates into the Bull Demon King..."
Lu Hao: "Get lost!"
"Okay, bro!"
…
…
The next day, Lu Hao brought a small team from the headquarters to be responsible for the implementation of the Turtle Studio.
Jia Yu is fully responsible for the creative work, while finance, legal affairs, public relations and the like must be supervised by the head office.
All funds of previous investors in "The Great Knight" must also be withdrawn.
Fortunately, after the past six months, the company has accumulated some foundation, and transferring some staff will not have any major impact.
DreamWorks headquarters is in the capital.
Turtle Studio originally had an office in Shanghai, so they decided not to bother with that and just set up their office in Shanghai.
This chess piece landed steadily.
Then, it was officially announced.
"DreamWorks has officially established Turtle Studios, and the martial arts animated film "The Great Knight" is expected to be released next year. Please stay tuned. @Jia Yu, Director Jia Yu is a filmmaker I admire very much, and I believe he will have a place in the future of animated films."
Lu Hao posted on Weibo, announcing that he had recruited another general.
Other DreamWorks artists also forwarded the post. Strength lies in numbers, and it caused quite a stir.
A quick count shows that the total number of Weibo followers of the directors, actors, and celebrities under his management is nearly 200 million.
Although there will certainly be a lot of overlaps, even after combining similar items, it is still a very strong force.
But, surprisingly, the reviews were very bad.
This negative review is not directed at Lu Hao, but at domestic animated films.
To be honest, the box office performance of domestic animated films is very poor, and they can almost be called the death zone.
The last movie to break the nine-digit box office revenue was two years ago.
Moreover, it is an adaptation of a classic IP, with the added bonus of fan sentiment, but even so, the box office was barely one and a half small goals. After its release, it received a lot of negative reviews, with many people calling it a film with only 50-cent special effects and 3-cent plot. The rating was once lower than five points.
It's just so cruel.
Since then, few directors and capital dare to touch this field.
The animated films currently being released are basically the preserve of foreign countries. Series such as "Battle Angel Alita", "Eva the Alien", and "Super Monster Factory" are much better in terms of pictures, plot, conception, and imagination.
…
"Is Director Lu going to enter the domestic animation field? As expected, with a lot of money, you can be willful. Let me plant the flag first. Best wishes."
…
"Turtle Studios? I've never heard of it. What's so good about it? If you're really rich, go buy Pixar!"
…
…
"Animation, domestic, martial arts... Congratulations on collecting the three dragons, which can summon a gorgeous special effect - the aura of defeat."
…
Looking at these comments, Lu Hao did not fight back. There was no need.
Reputation, evaluation, and achievements ultimately depend on the work.
When "The Great Knight" is released, they will know what the universe's first law of true fragrance is.
Face, come closer!
Lu Hao was looking forward to it.
