253 The Giant Crocodile Comes to the Door

This Spring Festival period, Wei Xun's "Detective Chinatown" led the box office on the first day of 190 million yuan, and the total box office of 1.62 billion yuan ended perfectly.

From the public to the media, as well as industry insiders, they all admire Wei Xun's strong ability to attract money.

At the age of 25, with a box office revenue of more than 5 billion yuan, it is no exaggeration to say that he can compare to the total box office output value of the current Chinese film industry for half a year!

It's just so strong, you can't accept it!

Looking at the box office rankings of Chinese local movies, you will be amazed to find that the first is "Detective Chinatown" 1.62 billion, the second is "Charlotte's Troubles" 1.51 billion, the fourth is "Wolf Warrior" 1.23 billion, and the ninth is "Chinese Partners" 750 million.

The third-ranked "Once Upon a Time" has 1.24 billion, only 10 million more than "Wolf Warrior".

And those who know the inside story are basically aware of how the box office of this movie came about.

Four of the top ten local movies' box office revenues have successfully sniped Hollywood imported blockbusters several times, almost breaking the top record of "Blue Man" in China for five years. No wonder some media claimed that Wei Xun could be a god in the field of commercial films in China.

Such achievements are not an exaggeration to be called a god!

Moreover, Wei Xun not only has outstanding directing skills, but also has superior skills in all aspects such as writing scripts and acting skills.

Especially this year's Spring Festival film "Detective Chinatown" has allowed the public to see Wei Xun's superb acting skills and also made people, including but not limited to Song Ziwen, have great expectations for Wei Xun.

Since the commercial film field has achieved such great achievements, will Wei Xun choose to continue to break through himself in commercial films, or switch to drama films and art films to win awards in the next film?

"Detective Chinatown" has just been released, and before April has arrived, the public has begun to discuss Wei Xun's new movie.

However, Wei Xun didn't seem to be too anxious. Instead, the small-budget movie "Lost in the World" officially announced by Xunzhang was officially launched and started filming, directed and acted by Bao Qiang. Another male starring actor, Li Chenggong, played by Sega, was Gao Zheng.

Speaking of which, Medal Media is currently strong enough, but it has been three or four years since its founding, but it has never signed a contract with its own actor.

As for the director, he signed Bao Qiang and the newly trained two young apprentices, Zhang Yu and Zhou Bing.

On the TV Department, several TV directors were dug up from Dongheng before.

This is one of the reasons why the industry pays attention to movies that have been filmed by medals, because there are no artists in medals, and as long as they are Wei Xun’s new movies, they will basically choose to try recruiting in the circle.

"Brother Xun, I think it's okay to sign a few actors appropriately. Look at the past few years, all actors who have starred in your movies have been doing well in the circle. Zeng Li, Wen Piaopiao, An Shi, who has achieved a career ladder through your movies."

In the Medal Media Office, Mao Bin suggested: "We sign more actors with aura, those with down-to-earth acting skills, show their faces in your movies, and train them well in the future. When we make movies, we will not always make wedding dresses for others."

Wei Xun was drawing a storyboard script at his desk at this time.

It has been almost five months since I started writing "Let the Bullets Fly" last December. The script has been polished and the storyboards are still a little short of finishing.

This script can be said to be the longest-time script since Wei Xun made a movie.

"Don't worry about signing an actor."

Hearing Mao Bin's words, Wei Xun said without raising his head: "You will understand in the future. If you are too idle recently, you can pay more attention to the trends of the companies in the front row of the Chinese Rich List."

"Detective Chinatown" has just been released, and the busiest time has passed. Medal Media has indeed been quite leisurely from top to bottom these days.

Mao Bin was handling emails with his cell phone. He felt a little strange when he heard this and said casually: "Follow what they do. The gap between us and others is too far..."

Halfway through his words, an administrative staff sent a link to the press release.

After clicking, the content in the link is a financial magazine's asset evaluation of Medal Media.

The evaluation said that in more than three years, Medal Media's net box office revenue was less than 1 billion yuan. The current Medal Media, its industrial chains including music, theaters, etc. have begun to take shape, and the total market value is estimated to be more than 2.5 billion yuan.

Especially after the release of "Detective Chinatown", Medal Media's asset ranking jumped directly from the eight major film companies in China to the middle, ranking just fourth.

The first three are Royal Entertainment, Huaying Media, and Tianguang Media.

"This financial magazine really looks down on us, with an asset appraisal of 2.5 billion, ranking fourth."

After rushing through the press release, Mao Bin shook his head with some amusement and said, "Brother Xun, what is the significance of these asset appraisals? Market value and other things sound good."

Has the medal been evaluated by financial institutions?

Wei Xun, who was busy drawing a storyboard script, paused when he heard the pen in his hand, raised his head and frowned and asked, "Which financial institution did the evaluation?"

Seeing that his face was wrong, Mao Bin was startled and quickly replied: "Fenghui Finance, what's wrong with Brother Xun?"

Before Wei Xun could speak, the door to the president's office was knocked open.

The secretary walked in with a pale face, handed over a business card, and said, "Mr. Wei, Mr. Sun, who claims to be an investment bank manager, came to visit and is waiting for you in the reception area."

Hearing the four words "investment bank manager", Mao Bin suddenly raised his head and asked: "Which investment bank manager was appointed?"

Investment banks mean investment banks, which are a type of financial institutions corresponding to commercial banks. Whether they are securities issuance, venture capital, investment analysis, project financing, etc., they are their jobs.

Of course, investment bank managers are also responsible for business restructuring, mergers and acquisitions.

The secretary swallowed and said, "He said he was entrusted by Jutong."

Jutong, full name Jutong Technology Holdings.

China's top Internet capital tycoon, ranking of China's rich assets this year. Jutong's CEO Ren Dong ranked fifth in the China's rich list with assets of 170 billion yuan.

Jutong Holdings itself is the second largest Internet giant in China and the seventh largest in the world. This year, the company's assessed market value assets of US$90 billion, which in turn is more than 600 billion Chinese currency.

Currently, the largest film company in the film industry, Chaozhou Entertainment, has only 60 billion assets.

Not to mention the Medal Media, which was just evaluated as 2.5 billion, there is no possibility of comparison in the face of such a behemoth.

Mao Bin's expression became terrified.

If the investment banking manager appointed by Jutong came with the purpose of forcibly acquiring the medal, the outcome of the medal would definitely be the same as that of Dongheng before, and there would be no room for resistance.
