Chapter 44 Big Brother Takes Me To Make Money (4/4)
Entertainment is a circle!
In 1993, Wang Shuo and Ma Weidu, Yu Hua, Mo Yan, Liu Zhenyun, Haiyan, Yingda, and Liang Zuo established a Haima Film and Television Association, and also filmed a TV series, "Haima Song and Dance Hall".
Haiyan is the owner of Kunlun Hotel. He was dragged into the trap by Ma Weidu to play with Huanghuali. There is a friend from Huanghuali Circle called Dong Ping.
Last year, Wang Shuo and Ye Jing joined Yuehua Media. There were many people coming at that time, including Dong Ping!
After a while, Zhang Junsheng and Uncle Dong actually had old acquaintances...
Dong Ping is a very visionary film and television investor!
He has participated in many well-reputable movies, such as "The Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Speaking Something to Have", "The Devils Come", "Jing Ke Assassinate the King of Qin", etc. The Huang brothers followed him into the industry and invested in the first movie - "The Devils Come", and officially entered the film and television industry.
The situation is already very obvious. Dongyang Media was defeated by Zhang Junsheng, leaving only Ma Xiaokang breathing and trying to focus on counterattack...
A few days ago, the Securities Regulatory Bureau rejected Dongyang Media’s request for listing. The reason is very simple. The financial disclosure cost is too high and the company cannot bear it. In short, even if it doesn’t make money!
In comparison, Yuehua's market valuation is RMB 20 billion...
Of course, Dong Ping bet on Yuehua!
Zhang Junsheng knew him because this person was a capital veteran!
In fact, some of Yuehua's operations, rebates, ticket rebates, and original time and space were operated by him!
He is the producer of "Lost in Thailand".
"Lost in Thailand", "Lost in Hong Kong" and "I'm Not a God of Medicine", gave the benefits to theaters very much. Back then, countless 9.9 were created by "Lost in Thailand" and Maoyan. The price of movie tickets was not random. Even if you sell 9.9 per piece, you will always distribute the profit at the lowest issuance price of 25 yuan during settlement.
In other words, the difference between 25 and 9.9 must be compensated, which results in the so-called ticket replacement.
The theater chains are very profitable, and they are not inferior to other movies. They have the advantage of ticket replacement. Of course, theater chains are scheduling films!
It seems that I have made concessions at the box office, but it doesn’t matter. The base is large. No matter how much I give in to my movies worth more than one or two hundred million, I will make more than you earn by 100 million or two hundred million.
In addition, theaters have also been maintained. You should know that theaters have a box office of 60% to 70%, and such concessions are real money and considerable.
You see, the movies are nothing more than investors investing, filming by the production company, displaying by the cinema, and watching by the audience. As a result, investors' returns are very high, the production company makes all the money, and the cinema makes it very happy. As for the audience, 9.9 is very affordable to watch the movie!
This guy wins four times at once.
Of course, Dong Ping looked further, not just to make the project's numbers look good.
A movie has saved hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue!
However, if the market value of the production company can increase, it will not be a matter of hundreds of millions!
The stock price of Guangxian Media rose eight times for the drama "Lost in Thailand"!
This is why the producer is willing to give in!
When making a movie, don’t care about the gains and losses of a play, look at the overall situation!
...
"You sell "If You Are the One 2" to me, I'm responsible for issuing it, and then you can invest in Cultural China for this money!"
Zhang Junsheng doesn't understand what Uncle Dong means...
"Look, the mainland film and television industry is getting hotter and hotter. There will definitely be large consortiums who want to transform into the entertainment industry. Then I will sell him cultural China, so won't it be enough!"
Zhang Junsheng admired the person in front of him a little.
How could he conclude that the entertainment industry will usher in rapid development?
In later generations, Dong Ping's most proud operation was to transfer Huayi New Media and Culture China to Tian Shuoning's China Broadband Industry Fund and Ma Yun's Ali to cash out a total of more than 1 billion Hong Kong dollars and leave the market...
It's pretty good. I only cut leeks and won't use my identity to mess around...
By the way, I have also tinkered with many good works, and he led the way "I Am Not a God of Medicine"...
A clear stream.
However, Zhang Junsheng doesn’t want to cooperate with him very much. This person has close contact with several directors who are about to step down from CCTV. It is obvious that he has been in the wrong team in recent years!
So, he said: "...but, I have my own distribution channel..."
"What are your box office estimates for "If You Are the One 2"?"
“…400 million!”
"400 million?"
Dong Ping wanted to say goodbye. His bottom line was 360 million, and then he directly divided the 125 million yuan into Yuehua. The rest had nothing to do with Yuehua...
Then, Zhang Junsheng said 400 million!
Would you be too greedy?
"…It's like this. "If You Are the One" has a good reputation and a box office of more than 200 million yuan. This time we added Wang Bo and Li Yuanyuan, and with Master Shuo's notebook as the foundation, it will not be less than 300 million yuan. In addition, the New Year holidays, the whole nation watches movies, so 400 million is our expectation..."
Zhang Junsheng explained.
Dong Ping was calculating that if the box office was 400 million, he would have to pay 160 million to buy the issuance...
Exceeding my expectations...
Forget it, just enter the movie industry, and the steps are too big.
“…Then I wish "If You Are the One 2" a big hit at the box office!”
"Thanks…"
In fact, Zhang Junsheng was quite moved by Uncle Dong’s proposal.
He is a big shot who plays capital. If he follows him, he will definitely have meat to eat!
Dong Ping once brought exclusive investment in film works by Xu Guangtou and Ning Hao within 6 years, production rights and priority issuance rights to enter the Hong Kong capital market and invested in 21 Holdings.
After the completion of the backdoor acquisition, Dong Ping became the largest shareholder of 21 Holdings, holding 24% of the shares. Ning Hao and Xu Zheng each invested in HK$175 million, and became the second largest shareholder, holding 19% of the shares respectively.
The day after the announcement of the transaction plan, Huanxi Media's highest share price reached HK$6.8, and Xu Zheng and Ning Hao's net wealth increased by 5.5 times, both of which were 962.5 million...
In the blink of an eye, two billionaires were created!
Not only that, Chen Kexin and Wang Jiawei also joined Huanxi Media after the name change of 21 Holdings in the same way, and instantly became a billionaire...
Do you envy Ma Xiaokang after working hard to make a film, and once you return to Ma Xiaokang before liberation?
Therefore, when you play with capital, you still have to follow the right boss!
When making movies, just make movies honestly. If you don’t understand, don’t do it blindly…
...
These days, Zhang Junsheng has been busy looking for projects, not for himself, but for Mr. Zhou!
No matter what, Zhou Xun is also a four-star actress. If she officially affiliated with Yuehua, she must prepare some decent gifts!
Zhang Junsheng looked through for a long time and thought "Red Sorghum" was pretty good, so he found Zheng Xiaolong.
There is no problem with "Red Sorghum", but it is a TV series, and the style is a bit insufficient, and a movie must be added!
Movie project…
I picked it for a long time but couldn't find the right one.
Or, "Inception"?
Such a handsome movie must be won, but the script is still in the hands of Nolan...
This is very simple. Warner's senior executives are fighting. They are not optimistic about the book "Inception". This is the time, and the peak is definitely the best time to take over!
In fact, there is no problem with the role of Marion Cotillard being a Chinese!
Even Ken Watanabe can play supporting roles, but there is no reason why Mr. Zhou can’t do it…
Chapter completed!
