MiYe looked at Wang Yong's "schadenfreude" smile, his eyes flashed a touch of unhappiness.
If it wasn't for Wang Yong's help to Miya, I'm afraid Miya would turn against Wang Yong on the spot.
"Forget it. If you don't mention it, you'll be unhappy." Mier waved, trying to get out of the way.
But Wang Yong stopped him and said, "don't go on talking about your company. How much did you lose? Isn't it true that a blockbuster movie has never been made? "
Miyer's unhappiness finally showed on his face. He didn't expect that Wang Yong was such a shallow person, who liked to build his happiness on the pain of others!
Well, since you like to expose people's scars, let's have a good time!
With a trace of anger, Mier replied: "not much, and the loss is less than 50 million US dollars, which can be converted into your Chinese currency, more than 300 million. In addition, our company has never made any blockbuster movies. The only big production movie is not popular, and the director is not well-known. It's just Roland. After they made our movie, they turned to make a sequel to Godzilla. At that time, I signed two film contracts with him and only completed one. The reason is very simple. Roland asked that the start-up funds of films directed by him should be more than 80 million US dollars. Our company can't afford so much money. "
"A loss of 50 million? Roland? Start up capital of $80 million? "
Wang Yong repeated one word at a time. Every time he spoke, his eyes lit up. It's as if I really feel the boundless pleasure from miyah's words.
When miyer saw this, his gratitude for Wang Yong was gone, replaced by disgust and anger.
With a look of sarcasm, he said, "what? Are you interested in Mr. Wang? Or I'll transfer the company to you. For the sake of saving me, you can give me a discount, and you can get 100 million dollars. "
Miyer originally intended to ridicule Wang Yong, but did not think that Wang Yong had the ability to take over such a film company.
Who knows, Wang Yong opened his eyes in disbelief and asked: "really? Are you kidding? "
Miya was stunned. Wang Yong's expression, how do you really want it?
Although his film company has a debt loss, after filling in 50 million US dollars of debt, the company can still operate well. If you stick to it for a few years, maybe the blind cat will hit the dead mouse and catch a play like the Lord of the rings, and it will soar to the sky.
When the Lord of the rings was filmed, a large number of unknown actors and directors were used. Most of the money was spent on special effects production, not the special effects team from Hollywood, but the team from New Zealand. Because it's cheap.
It's such a cheap movie, which creates a box office miracle and makes a lot of stars and directors popular.
So such a company only sells $100 million, which is really cheap. Not to mention that Mier still has a contract with Roland. The well-known director who has made Godzilla films has to start with a guaranteed film salary of US $20 million, which can be converted into a box office share of at least US $100 million.
If this business can be concluded, Wang Yong will definitely make money!
"You're not teasing me, are you? Are you sure you want to sell it? " Wang Yong asked again.
Miyah is really stupid.
Wang Yong really wants to buy it!
Miyer took a deep breath and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Wang, did you hear what I said about the price? 100 million US dollars, not RMB, not even Vietnamese dollars, but US dollars! "
Wang Yong nodded: "yes, I can hear you clearly! Don't you think so? I can add more. I really don't want to. Let's cooperate. Do you think it's feasible for me to buy 50% of your company's shares? "
"I... I..." miyah couldn't speak.
For a long time, Wang Yonggang is not watching his jokes, but really want to understand the situation of the company!
But why did Wang Yong buy a film company? Isn't it more suitable for him to buy a publishing company or a media company?
Miyah asked this question with doubts.
Wang Yong said with a smile: "on the one hand, I want the world to know more about China and its culture. However, Hollywood movies have a wide coverage and popularity, so they are the first choice; On the other hand, don't you think Hollywood movies have entered a bottleneck? Western magic, mecha metamorphosis, star wars and superheroes are all over the screen of cinema. People are tired of watching them every day. The fact that one sequel of these films is not as good as another proves that. "
As an insider, miyer, of course, knew all this and agreed: "what you said is indeed the general consensus in the industry. But there is nothing else to shoot! What the audience likes to watch is the big popcorn blockbuster. If you play with them in depth and art, they don't buy it at all. Otherwise, my company would not have lost so much money... "
Wang Yong's enigmatic smile: "wrong, there is one more thing to shoot!"
Miyer was stunned: "what is it? Hollywood has been developing for so many years, and almost all the types that can be filmed have been filmed! "
"That's because you only focus on your western world, and don't notice that there is a treasure in the eastern world!
Imagine a movie in which the protagonists are not riding magic brooms, but flying in the sky with flying swords; The magic tools used by human beings are not limited to scepters, but swords, axes, ruler mirrors, bows and crossbows, streamers, and even needles, lights, memorial archways and cauldrons that can fly with people's heart; The monsters inside are no longer the dragon and Shrek that people are tired of seeing, but all kinds of exotic animals that western human beings have never seen. Dijiang, who looks like a pocket and has no head, Tiangou with a white cat's head, ferocious with five tails and one horn, Qu Ru, who has three feet and a head like a human face. As for Qinglong, Baihu, Zhuque, Xuanwu, Qilin, qiongqi, Taotie and Jiuwei fox, they are the guarantee to open the eyes of Westerners!
The fighting styles of the protagonists are not only mixed with Chinese martial arts, but also include changing stars, subverting heaven and earth, calling the wind and rain, turning rivers and seas, turning stones into gold, turning beans into soldiers, shrinking the ground into inches, and so on; The characters in it are the scholar who opens his mouth to express his noble and upright spirit, the Yin Yang school who controls the talisman, the Wufu who practices his body, the Taoist who practices his Qi for longevity, the civil and military officials who live high above the temple, and the gods who accept the incense from all living beings
Do you think audiences in the western world will be interested in such a movie? " Wang Yong asked.
In fact, the above can not express one in ten thousand of Wang Yong's imagination, because the myth system of China from ancient times to the present is too large and complex. Just a few novels, such as Fengshen romance, journey to the West and Liaozhaizhiyi, can deduce many versions of the Chinese myth system, let alone other strange stories.
If we want to make it into a movie, it is a difficult process just to sort out and summarize the myth system. But once it's successful, it's bound to be brilliant.
Miya beside him has been shocked by Wang Yong's description. His eyes are staring at Wang Yong, as if he has been immersed in the world of Chinese mythology.
After a long time, Mier suddenly patted his thigh: "good! Excellent! If you can make such a film, I can't guarantee that it will surpass the Lord of the rings, but it will certainly leave its name in Hollywood box office history! I'm really reluctant to sell the company when you say that... "
Wang Yong said with a smile: "I'm not saying that we can adopt the way of joint-stock cooperation. I'll inject 50 million US dollars to fill in the debt loss of your company, and then we'll make the new film together. I also want to be a good director. I can't waste Roland's film appointment. He is good at making monster movies. It's just right for him to make this kind of movie. Of course, I will invite a director from Huaxia to complete it with director Roland, so as not to turn the movie into a Western magic movie. In addition, in addition to special effects, the venue, personnel and scenery can be shot in China, which can save a lot of money compared with shooting in the United States. "
There is nothing else in Huaxia, but a vast land, abundant resources and many people. Zhang Yimou, director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games which shocked the world at the beginning, said: other countries also want to engage in such a big scene of the sea of people tactics, but they did not.
Those scenes in Hollywood that need to spend a lot of money to produce Post special effects can be done in China with a group performance of tens of yuan per person, and they are real.
"Is that good? Mr. Wang. I'm taking advantage of it. Well, you contributed 50 million yuan, accounting for 51% of the shares. " Miyah scratched his head in embarrassment and said.
Although miyer only gave up one percentage point of the shares, but more than one percentage point, Wang Yong became a substantial major shareholder. Wang Yong has the right to make decisions on important matters.
Wang Yong thought about it and nodded: "I'm not respectful. You should draw up a contract as soon as possible. After signing the contract, I will pay a deposit of 30 million US dollars in advance, and make it up in the next 20 million weeks. "
Wang Yong just got Xu Jialong's $30 million, which immediately came in handy.
Mi Ye slightly a stay, did not expect Wang Yong said dry dry, crisp. Sure enough, Chinese people are rich and powerful!
"Well, I'll come in the evening with the contract. Goodbye, Miss Wang Miya waved excitedly and left.
Wang Yong looked at the back of Miya and couldn't help feeling: even God is helping himself, and he can send whatever he wants.
If the film can be shot successfully, it will certainly play a great role in the promotion of Chinese culture.
Just like Hollywood movies and Oriental animation, it will set off a Chinese style in the world.
But that's all after the event. What Wang Yong has to do now is to put the other 20 million yuan in place first.
This money can only be temporarily taken from chekia's fund, which will be divided into the box office of subsequent films, and then filled back.
Just when Wang Yong touched the phone and wanted to call someone to transfer money, his mobile phone suddenly lit up, but a strange number from China called in.
Wang Yong was surprised to get through, but before he opened his mouth, the other party first introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Wang, I'm the head of the marketing department of Huawei, just call me Lao Zhao. Well, we'd like to thank you for everything you did for our brand promotion during the Las Vegas shooting. After our meeting and discussion, we agreed that your image is very consistent with our company's "Huaxia Youwei" brand concept, so we would like to invite you to be our brand spokesperson. I wonder if you have this intention? "
