Brother Su, if you talk about film investment, I'm interested. Remember to take me with you," Ye Cheng said quickly.
He remembered that in his previous life, Wu Jin was interviewed by reporters after Dragon Series 1 became popular, and he talked about the shortage of funds. In the end, he actually sold a house in Pengcheng before completing Dragon Series 1.
In other words, Su Binggui probably did not invest money this time or did not invest enough money.
In this way, he would have a chance.
"No problem; I'll contact you when we get to Pengcheng. However, when it comes to film investment, I have to remind you that if you are not careful, you will lose all your money," Su Binggui smiled.
It is impossible to judge whether a movie is good or bad before it is released.
If you can make three or five movies out of a hundred that make money, that's pretty good.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Cheng began to search for information about the filming of Dragon Group.
The next morning, Ye Cheng met Su Binggui.
"Brother, let's go. I'll take you to see Wu Jin. He's worried about filming now and is even planning to sell his house," Su Binggui said.
He knew that Ye Cheng had money, so he roped in Ye Cheng, which was also a favor to Wu Jin, his friend.
Of course, whether Ye Cheng will vote depends on whether Wu Jin can convince Ye Cheng.
Su Binggui didn't know that Ye Cheng had made up his mind to invest as much as he wanted. The more, the better. After all, the more investment, the more box office dividends.
However, Ye Cheng also knows that the majority of the box office revenue of Dragon Group 1 belongs to the early investors.
Ye Cheng could only drink some soup.
His main goal is to build a good relationship with Wu Jin.
As the saying goes, how can the icing on the cake be better than giving help when it's time?
Wu Jin even has to sell his house, so he will definitely be extremely grateful to Ye Cheng for his investment.
Ye Cheng and Su Binggui came to Wu Jin's residence.
This is a house of 120 square meters.
The house is not large in size. Due to its good location, the house prices here are very expensive, starting at 30,000 per square meter. By 2021, the house prices here will have exceeded 70,000.
It is said that this is the house that Wu Jin sold.
"Brother Su, who is this?" Wu Jin wears glasses and looks a bit thin, but his eyes give people a sense of determination.
"Old Wu, let me introduce myself to you. This is Brother Ye Cheng. Although he is young, he is worth a lot. I specially brought you to invest in the movie. However, you can't fool Brother Ye," Su Binggui said.
"Hello, Boss Ye, sit down quickly." Wu Jin became very enthusiastic.
His most urgent priority now is to attract investment.
Soon, Wu Jin's wife, Ye Zi, came up with tea.
Wu Jin also began to introduce the shooting situation at Qi Long Group.
If you can be a director, your eloquence is, of course, very good.
"Old Wu, since the script of this movie is very good and has a high chance of becoming a hit, why don't those who invested in it in the early stages give you additional investment?" Su Binggui couldn't help but ask.
"Those guys are completely capitalistic and shortsighted. They only want to make money, but they don't know that film shooting is about exquisite details. Save a little here, save a little there, and spend all the money on the actors. They can produce good-quality movies. ?" Wu Jin said it with a cold snort.
The reason why the current film and television industry does not produce good works is because of the consequences of capital coercion.
But he couldn't do anything.
No one knows whether movies can make money, so they have to be extremely cautious when investing.
"Brother Su, just tell me how many shots you can throw." Wu Jin said it with a sudden change of voice.
Su Binggui showed a hint of embarrassment on his face and said, "Old Wu, you also know that the money I have is very limited, and your sister-in-law has the financial power. I can invest up to two million."
Wu Jin showed a hint of disappointment.
Because of his plan, he would need at least tens of millions of dollars to complete the filming of Dragon Group.
If you want to take more perfect shots, you will need more funds.
He couldn't help but cast his expectant eyes on Ye Cheng.
If Ye Cheng can invest a few million and then sell the house, it should be enough, and there will be no need to beg grandpa and grandma to pretend to be a grandson.
"Director Wu, how much more money will be needed to finish filming the Dragon Team?" Ye Cheng asked directly.
Since Su Binggui could invest two million, of course he would spend the rest.
In his previous life, Wu Jin said that due to a lack of funds, the final filming of the Dragon Series was unsatisfactory and had some flaws. However, Dragon Series 2 is much better than the first one because of sufficient funds.
"If we want to finish filming, it should cost another 10 million." Wu Jin thought for a while and said:.
"Is it at least, or is ten million enough?" Ye Cheng asked again.
Wu Jin was stunned for a moment, stared at Ye Cheng, and then said with a smile, "Of course it is at least a minimum. If you want to take the most perfect picture, it should be more than 15 million."
"Director Wu, let's do it this way. Since it's going to be filmed, it must be perfect. Brother Su will invest two million, and I will invest all the remaining thirteen million." Ye Cheng smiled.
Wu Jin and Su Binggui both showed signs of astonishment.
"Boss Ye, are you sure?" Wu Jin took a deep breath and asked excitedly.
"Of course, but I also have a small request." Ye Cheng smiled.
"any request?" Wu Jin asked.
He was worried that Ye Cheng would make some rude requests, such as inserting someone into the crew.
This was a very common thing and something he hated most.
"It's very simple. If Dragon Group becomes popular, when the second part is filmed, I must be on the list of investors, and the investment ratio cannot be too low." Ye Cheng smiled.
This is his main purpose.
Dragon group 1 can only drink some soup, but dragon group 2 needs to eat a lot of meat.
"Boss Ye, are you so sure that my dragon group can be popular?" Wu Jin was greatly moved.
Although he has had the idea of making a second film in his heart, after all, it still depends on the box office of the first film.
"I believe in Director Wu's attitude of striving for excellence, which many well-known directors cannot achieve. Since Director Wu is willing to sell his house to make a movie, why can't I take a gamble?" Ye Cheng smiled.
"Old Wu, have you seen it? This is Brother Ye's grandeur. Originally, I was a little hesitant about investing two million, but now I'm not worried." Su Binggui smiled.
"Okay, I promise you." Wu Jin nodded immediately.
He didn't know how many investors would be waving their checks after Dragon 1 was released and became a hit, wanting to be added to the list of investors for Dragon 2.
This also caused some investors in the original Dragon Group 1 to be directly squeezed out.
After all, those who invest in Dragon Group 2 have a great background.
Ye Cheng was worried that this would happen, so he planned to sign an agreement with Wu Jin. In this way, with the agreement, Wu Jin would not be able to break the contract.
Unless Wu Jin no longer shoots Dragon Series 2, he must accept Ye Cheng's investment.
