"I'm afraid that the superiors will disagree. Even if the approval of Hong Kong is not so strict and approved, it will not be able to enter the mainland and American markets in the end. If these two large customer sources are lost, even if the investment can recover the cost, it will be difficult to make a profit." Jackie Chan's executive did not have a clear objection, but he still expressed his concerns from an investment perspective.

"Haha, the return on investment is not the issue we need to consider for the time being. Of course, as an investor, we should indeed grasp investment from the perspective of economic returns. However, from the perspective of a simple filmmaker, if we consider economic interests too much, it will often bring unnecessary bonds. When I was preparing to film "Titanic", many people said that it was a failure. A shipwreck film mixed with love would not be sought after, and the investment amount was still so large. They predicted that the final result would be a loss and it would be difficult to recover the investment. But the result was that not only recovered the investment, but also made a profit of hundreds of millions of dollars. A pure filmmaker first considers how to create a good film, how to cater to the tastes of the audience, and how to bring you a good visual experience. Of course, according to the promotion of the mainland government, it should also have educational significance and ideological connotations worthy of reflection... I don’t say that I sneer at this, nor do I agree with this. The educational significance and ideological connotations are things in the education world and have nothing to do with the entertainment world. As long as it is a simple commercial film, it is impossible to consider that. It is enough to be able to do not violate the law and not oppose the state and the government..." The executives’ simple worries actually led to a long passage from Chen Kangjie.

Just when everyone thought Chen Kangjie had finished speaking, he paused for a moment and continued: "However, then again, although we can ignore the educational significance and ideological connotation, it is also good to be able to reflect our worldview. The worldview I mean is of course only the worldview of some people. It is impossible for everyone's ideas to be consistent. The ideas of ordinary people are more or less different from those of politicians. The ideas of young people are not exactly the same as those of the elderly. From the perspective of the market, most of the people who go to the cinema to spend money to watch movies are still young people. Therefore, I just need to consider the ideas of most young people."

The passage added by Chen Kangjie made the three people sitting a little stunned. On the surface, the meaning is very simple and there is no profound content, but if you think about it carefully, you will feel that it has a deep meaning.

What does it mean to consider only the ideas of most young people?

According to Chen Kangjie's idea, it is completely radical. It can be foreseen that many conservative politicians will not like it, and many elderly people who have been imprisoned for decades of thought will not like it, but young people will definitely shout that the young people in Greater China do not say that such a movie is so fresh. The key is to be bold. The first time I dared to set the US military as an enemy in reality, and defeated the enemy. If the fierce battle scenes and exciting inheritance combinations will definitely make it sought after by young people in Greater China. Compared with the stale and conservative above, let alone whether young people are nationalists, at least they are passionate radicals and young people, and they are definitely willing to see the tough image of a Chinese hero.

So whether Chinese youth like it or Western youth will hate it, the answer may not be possible.

It is undeniable that the heroes in international movies are all Americans, which reflects the noble plot of the United States acting as a world policeman and saving world peace, which is also considered the spread of their values ​​in the world. However, relatively speaking, the United States does not pay as much attention as ours in the ideological field, especially among young people, rebellious thoughts exist like us. As long as the plot is exciting enough, the battle scene is grand enough, and Chen Kangjie's supreme influence among young people, even if the US government is not too keen, it can attract many young people to enter the theater.

Even in order to create gimmicks and to create momentum, Chen Kangjie did not hesitate to come to the front desk from behind the scenes. If the image of the martial arts hall that fled from the embassy was prepared for Jackie Chan, then the investigator sent from China was Chen Kangjie who created the setting for himself.

"As for the problems you are worried about entering the mainland and the US market, I believe there can be solutions." Chen Kangjie dared to say that means he has a clear idea.

Needless to say, the mainland market, no matter how much the propaganda department has opinions, Chen Kangjie believes that he can enter this movie with his inherent relationship. Besides, Chen Kangjie does not insult the country and the people, but promotes a brave and fearless positive image. I believe that many people will open a door for him. As for the American market, Chen Kangjie believes that he can also win it, but the measures taken are just different. In the real American society, as long as he has enough influence and economic strength, it is not difficult to enter swagger. Even if some conservatives have opinions about him, it is nothing. At least the US general in Chen Kangjie's story takes private actions. Of course, after he succeeds, the government and the Pentagon will protect him. Chen Kangjie will avoid this situation in the plot setting, otherwise it will really trigger a rebound.

"LONG, I completely believe that, then you see, do you want to destroy this script? You personally draft a script. Everyone flocks to the script you wrote. Haha, it seems that I was wrong to ask someone to write the script. With a gold medal screenwriter like you, why should I pretend to be someone else's hands?" Since Chen Kangjie was so bold, Jackie Chan was relieved. He gently pushed his hands and planned to push the heavy responsibility into Chen Kangjie's hands and give him a free flattery.

"Brother, it's useless for me to polite me. Haha, I probably don't have much time to write. Anyway, the big framework is like this. As long as the polished screenwriter is not too bad and the whole plot is rounded up... If you have difficulties here, you can find Feiyang Entertainment Company. Their screenwriter team is still good and I am willing to spend time to conceive."

"LONG, I have a question. Although it is a bit presumptuous, in order not to affect the cooperation, I still want to ask first." The executive next to Jackie Chan asked softly.

"Mr. Mi, please ask." After introduction, Chen Kangjie knew that the other party's surname was Mi and Mi Gao, but he did not call him Mr. Mi, but instead called him Mr. Mi more intimately.

"That's right. I know that you are making big movies. Although you don't need to consider investment from the perspective of a filmmaker... Haha, but you know, I'm a savvy person and the company's strength is limited, so I have to consider it... The question I want to ask is that according to your estimate, how much is the film planned to invest, and I can't make a corresponding budget here." Mi Gao, who is in his forties, should rarely have such unscrupulous words, but in front of Chen Kangjie, he is still a little unwilling to let go, and the most important thing is that it involves sensitive money.

Before asking this question, Mi Gao had already looked at Jackie Chan intentionally or unintentionally. Maybe they had reached some kind of tacit understanding and saw that Jackie Chan was not opposed, so he asked.

In fact, Jackie Chan is also concerned about this issue, and he has to pay attention to it. Since it has been agreed that it is cooperation, it is not just about work relationships, but also about investment. In other words, it is about the joint investment of both parties.

Chen Kangjie's previous investment in filming movies was more than 200 million US dollars. If it is estimated based on this price, it will be divided into two 50% ratios. Jackie Chan's company will have to pay 100 million US dollars. Although Jackie Chan is already a big brother in the entertainment industry, with a high reputation and a high salary, it is also a very difficult task for him to pay more than 700 million Hong Kong dollars in cash, and it can even be said that it is not possible to achieve it.

Ten years later, Chen Kangjie once saw reports that Jackie Chan had a net worth of nearly 2 billion yuan. Chen Kangjie did not doubt its authenticity, but most of it was real estate, and a large part of it was earned two thousand years later. His salary is currently only about 10 million US dollars. Now, his entire property should be less than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. If he really invested in this ratio, he had to take out all his net worth.

"Of course the investment amount will not be as high as the Titanic, but it is estimated that one billion Hong Kong dollars is almost the same. For the sake of reality, after all, to truly blow up a building, to eliminate several tanks and armored vehicles, or even to fall one or two helicopters, plus various other expenses, even if I have zero pay, I need this number to guarantee the minimum." Chen Kangjie said it very plainly, as if he was not one billion but one hundred yuan.

However, hearing Jackie Chan and Mi Gao's ears was a bit shocking. From Chen Kangjie's tone, the 1 billion Hong Kong dollars is just a guarantee, and for this movie, it is really not an ordinary big deal to really blow up tanks and armored vehicles.

In the history of Hong Kong films, no movie has an investment of this number, and it can even be equivalent to ten major Hong Kong films. In Hong Kong, two thousand years ago, it was basically impossible for a movie to invest more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and most movies invested only a few million Hong Kong dollars. Now Chen Kangjie has a 1 billion Hong Kong dollars. How can they not be shocked? Even though he knows that every movie in Chen Kangjie used to be calculated based on tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars, it has nothing to fall into his ears, but now he is about to let them integrate into it, although he has been prepared in his heart, he still feels shocked.

"LONG, this..." Mi Gao stammered, looked at Chen Kangjie, then looked at Jackie Chan, and didn't know how to answer the conversation.

"LONG, frankly speaking, after more than half a year of raising, I have only raised 300 million Hong Kong dollars. I wonder if it will be a little less."
