I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Lin Dong hurried back to the company, and called Du Qixi who was looking for a life monkey.

Du Qixi didn't have much to do recently, so he was entrusted with the establishment of the Kleist Cultural Fund. He asked him to contact some literary film directors to see if there were any suitable projects.

Boss Lin.

Brother Qixi, how are you doing recently?

It's time to die, and I'm about to set off to go to Yucheng to be a volunteer.

Just you? What can you do when you go?

It's not that Lin Dong looks down on this fat man, this fat man is as weak as a chicken, panting after a few steps on the set.

It is not fat that causes this result.

If it's just fat, Lin Dong can help him with potions.

He is false.

I don't know why it's so fake.

Master Wizard has no choice.

My heart, do you understand my heart? With my blood...

Just save yourself, if you haven't come into contact with any projects recently, bring them here quickly.

Boss, what time is this?

Stop talking nonsense!

Du Qixi felt aggrieved and put several project documents in front of Lin Dong.

Lin Dong picked up a book and flipped through a few pages, then threw it directly into the trash can.

Because the system says it's too scumbag, it's a scam, so I won't vote.

I think it's pretty good. This project is the idea of ​​a buddy of mine. Du Qixi shook his head in confusion, completely unclear about Boss Lin's criteria for judgment.

Lin Dong stopped looking at the project for a moment.

Sighing in my heart, it really is still my crouching dragon and phoenix chick, my eyesight is blind.

This second project is pretty good.

This Mind Labyrinth is quite interesting, but is the production cost column wrong?

This movie tells the story of a series of strange events caused by an inexplicable corpse in a remote village.

Just reading the script, I feel very exciting.

But the production cost is two million?

Can two million make a movie? Even if you don't pay attention to the cast, the extras should pay, okay?

It's not wrong, the director said that this money is enough.

Notify the producer to come over.

now?

Yes, let him bring his ID and other things, and by the way, notify the finance side to prepare the payment.

A literary film with a cost of two million yuan, no matter how popular it is, it is estimated that it will not have much money, and it may not even be shown in the theaters.

Lin Dong could only continue to look down.

The third book, throw it away.

The fourth book, throw it away.

fifth book...

Is this our school's teacher? Lin Dong asked Du Qixi.

Which one? Oh, it's Girls Thirteen by Teacher Cao Baoguang. I remember this film. It is the graduation work of a student with a master's degree in the Department of Literature. Teacher Cao thought it was very interesting, so I wanted to put it on the screen. , everything is ready, but the money is short.”

Then call their producer over.

The producer is Mr. Cao, I'll call them.

With a cost of 20 million yuan, this production cost is relatively normal. Regardless of whether the filming is good or bad, the box office will be at least tens of millions.

sixth book.

Lin Dong was at a loss for the name, and the film's project name was simply 32.

After flipping through a few pages, his heart became a little heavy.

This is a film about the trauma of war.

Different from the fierce man movie agreed by Lin Dong and Wu Feng, this is a documentary that tells a painful history.

There are no historical data images, no bloody and violent scenes in the film, only the daily life and mood records of these lovely old people.

In the face of pain, don't resent all day long, but don't forget it for a moment.

I think this film can be cast, although it won't make any money. Seeing Lin Dong pick up the project, Du Qixi began to persuade Lin Dong: Let's treat it as a charity, don't you often say that making money is not enough? The most important thing?

The project his buddy brought over, he placed on top of the pile of projects.

He was thrown away by Lin Dong.

This will make him lose face in front of his friends.

He didn't say anything.

Now it is a film that has nothing to do with him, but he has been waiting here to help talk endlessly.

Brother Qixi is quite cute sometimes.

Notify the director or producer to come over.

okay!

Lin Dong read the remaining three books and threw them all into the trash can.

That's all that's finally settled.

Mind Labyrinth.

Girl Thirteen.

32.

Du Qixi received a total of nine project applications, and Lin Dong selected three of them. The others were either obviously wrong, or so bad that the system was unwilling to invest.

As soon as I heard that there was news from the Kleist Cultural Fund.

The three companies rushed to Kleist Culture Media Company one after another.

Lin Dong took Du Qixi and Shi Shanshan and talked with them one by one, and the one who talked with them signed the contract and went to the financial side to settle the payment.

There is no difficulty.

There are no actors either.

As the employer, they only need to take back 35% of the box office according to the proportion, and if they can negotiate with the theaters, they will control the rest.

If you can get it to the film festival for awards, the bonus you get will not be counted in the film income.

When I first saw the establishment of the Kleist Cultural Fund on the Internet, it said that it would support domestic literary and artistic films and cultural construction, and the fund would not be for profit.

Many people feel that this company is hype.

Is it possible that there is really capital that does not want to make money?

Now, they finally knew it was true. After all, the contract had been signed, and the money was transferred to the crew's account immediately.

settlement!

【Settlement in progress...】

[Project 1: The movie Maze of the Mind, with a production cost of 2 million yuan and a total box office of 10.65 million yuan. According to the investment ratio, you will recover the investment cost and make a profit of 1.72 million yuan. It's a pity...]

[Project 2: The movie 32 has a production cost of 3 million and a total box office of 3.7 million. According to the investment ratio, you have lost a total of 1.705 million. Congratulations on your successful loss]

[Project 3: The movie Girl Thirteen, the production cost is 20 million, and the total box office is 48.17 million. According to the investment ratio, you have lost a total of 3.1405 million. Congratulations on your successful loss]

[Since the consumption is not the initial capital of the system, the settlement fee galleon will not be granted]

【The settlement is over. Since the system account funds are not zero, a new round of starting funds will not be issued. The current fund balance of your system account is 230715000】

After settlement, there are 230 million left.

It was originally 300 million, but Lin Dong settled the wages of the employees and the company's venue fee at the beginning of the year, plus the loss of several million this time, and finally there was so much left.

Lin Dong has become numb to the huge amount of money in the system account.

All he cared about was how much box office revenue those three films generated.

Regardless of whether he loses money or not, the box office generated by the movie is considered box office income. He can first withhold 5% of this income for charity regardless of the cost.

The total box office of the three films was 6252. After removing the miscellaneous items, the amount allocated to him was 21.88 million.

If multiplied by 5%, the total is 1.09 million.

This is the retained part regardless of the cost. If the cost is deducted first to calculate the profit, and 5% of the profit is removed, there will be no dime left.

In a sense, the three movies lost two.

It was the brightest achievement in his money-losing career.
