Ning Hao is an NPC that Huayu novels cannot avoid...

No way, his appearance was a bit earth-shattering.

You see, in the mainland film market before Ning Hao, the only people making commercial films were those Hong Kong and Taiwan directors.

There is only one Feng Xiaogang in the Mainland!

The fifth generation is busy making blockbusters, and the sixth generation continues to make their own literary films...

Then, "Crazy Stone" came out, and relying solely on word-of-mouth advantage, it scored close to 30 million at the box office in the mainland.

You know, "The Stone" doesn't even have a single star!

And there is also "Superman" in the same period...

Ning Hao's greatest contribution is actually to remind mainland investors: We mainland directors can also make commercial films.

To put it bluntly, at this stage, movie making is not a profitable business. There are only 3,000 screens in the country. Only relying on the mainland to divide the accounts, apart from those two horror films, Shen Xudong cannot make any money...

After the people from the production department left, Shen Xudong asked Gao Fenfen about the current situation of the company.

Now that you have done it, there is no need to work so hard anymore.

Things feel a bit urgent lately.

After muttering something, Shen Xudong went downstairs.

Ning Hao wrote in "Hundred Adults" that 'it was initially said to be 5 million, then it became 3 million, and then it was 1.5 million!'

Gao Fenfen was speechless: "We have more than 80 staff! The monthly salary expenses alone are almost 500,000!"

Take Wang Xiaoshuai, for example, who clamored for transformation and raised tens of millions of dollars to make "Rizhao Chongqing," a literary and artistic film!

"This is black humor! Comedy movies, as I've mentioned before, are three major genres, comedy, horror and erotic films... "The Stone" is a typical comedy!"

The original time and space, "Crazy Stone", Yingyi Entertainment's "Asian Rising Star Director" program gave him 1.5 million, and Zhou Lin, the boss of "Sifang Chuangyuan", contributed 1.5 million to the production cost of 3 million.

Gao Fenfen was too lazy to explain to him: "Just go away...you will be responsible for writing scripts and recommending high-quality dramas!"

In other words, for a cost of 10 million, you have to get 30 million to make a profit!

The appearance of Ning Hao tells everyone: if you serve the mainland audience well, you can make money at a low cost.

Shen Xudong went directly to the company and asked Gao Fenfen about "Crazy Stone"...

"We not only do film and television production, but also undertake publicity, distribution and performing arts activities... Just don't worry about it, the company's cash flow is very good anyway!"

…

If this continues, I will be reduced to a worker...

Shen Xudong answered the phone and introduced "Crazy Stone": "He is a new director... not too new. He has made two independent films before, so he is quite experienced..."

Sitting in the car, Shen Xudong secretly made up his mind...

No, I have to take a vacation...

Don’t forget your original intention: make some money and support yourself with your talents!

"When she releases an album, we also make money?"

As for investing in "Stone", it can be considered as following the trend!

Calculate it yourself, is the split account 41%, or 41% after deducting 8.3% - you need to pay a 5% film industry special fund and a 3.3% special business tax...

"Of course, she is an artist of our company..."

Ning Hao nodded: "He didn't read the script..."

"…Who is it?"

"Well, the location has been selected!"

Hearing this, Shen Xudong frowned: "...Who is the investor?"

At this point, the conversation was almost over, and then Zhang Guoli suddenly added mysteriously: "I will introduce someone to you tomorrow!"

…

"Mr. Liu Dehua...his Asian Rising Star Director Plan..."

"That's enough. Get ready. We'll go see Zhang Guoli and Director Chen the day after tomorrow...are you impressed?"

"I'll be the producer..."

After a pause, Gao Fenfen continued: "Besides, Chen Hao's album is selling very well, and our first batch of accounts will be distributed soon."

The company is getting bigger and bigger, and it doesn't meet my original expectations at all: just have a studio that can help me take care of my business...

Now, Tianmei Entertainment is one of the most private media companies in BJ.

However, Shen Xudong doesn't need Ning Hao very much. He has already proved this with "The Fox Wife in the Mountain Village" and "The Legend of the Xing'anling Hunter".

"This script is really not written by me, it is Ning Hao's own work..."

Ning Hao struggled: "...Isn't this good? I already took the money!"

"The sooner the better. In fact, I have already received 1.5 million yuan in funding..."

Then, the phone rang, and it was Zhang Guoli. She heard that Shen Xudong had a very good script for him.

"Well, thank you Uncle Zhang!"

This can't go on like this!

Gao Fenfen was a little hesitant, not because he didn't believe in Shen Xudong's vision, but because Ning Hao...had no works before!

Moreover, it is difficult for a director who is accustomed to making literary films to make a transition.

"Tomorrow night... okay! I'll take him with me!"

"Just don't ask..."

The company has money anyway, so why not?

"You come with me the day after tomorrow. We are going to meet Director Chen and Zhang Guoli... When will the movie be shot?"

Shen Xudong said "Oh" and then thought about how many projects he has started recently: "Then should we slow down?"

Ning Hao shook his head: "I don't know this..."

"...You don't know how to manage artists..."

"...Do we have the money to support such people?"

"There are always hundreds of thousands..."

Gao Fenfen nodded, and then called the head of the production department...

Shen Xudong was surprised to find that the company had grown again...

One thing follows another...

As for the producer of "Stone", he will go to the set to stay for a day or two, and then go shopping in the mountain city for half a month!

Just a name!

Shen Xudong thought for a while: "...Let the company talk to him. Andy Lau probably didn't expect "Stone" to be a hit..."

"I'm not afraid you'll be too tired..."

"Yes, I am also planning to invite Teacher Chen to see if he has time... to make a guest appearance..."

In addition, Sifang Chuangyuan invested in "The Stone" and made a fortune, and then invested in "Mingming" at a cost of 30 million, and lost everything. It will never invest in movies again, and will only make TV series...

"Is that enough?"

"...No, Mango Channel has already paid an advance payment of 18 million for "The Great Butler", and "Soldier Assault" has also been aired on four channels..."

"Andy Lau's Yingyi Entertainment also invested 1.5 million..." After thinking about it, Shen Xudong said: "We invested 6.5 million, which is considered the main investment. You ask him if he will follow. If not, we will produce it ourselves! "

"Of course the script is good, otherwise, I wouldn't have sent it to you..."

"Well, if nothing else happens, it will be launched in a week..."

"...but this director is new..."

"That'll be fine...how much? 6.5 million...is it enough?"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "Push it... The copyright of "Stone" belongs to us, and we will be responsible for the distribution and production..."

"How much can we share?"

"When they invest, they only share the accounts and don't occupy the copyright, right?"

"Male or female?"

Zhang Guoli still said: "There are men and women!"

"...Uncle Zhang, I don't want to fall in love for the time being."

Shen Xudong subconsciously thought that Zhang Guoli was going to arrange a blind date, and finally laughed and said: "You are overthinking, you will know when you come tomorrow night!"
