Hit [Rebirth]

The film "A World of Faces" was jointly invested by Daliao Company and Hengshui Film Industry.

These two companies specialize in investment. In recent years, they have not only invested in "The World of Watching Faces", but also invested in many other films.

But these two companies seem to be unlucky. The films invested in the past two years without exception have caused the company to lose money.

I don’t know if it’s because of a sudden illness. In order to recover the loss, I spent all my money last year on the legendary 3D production "Peach Blossoms Blooming", which was adapted from a big IP novel.

"Peach Blossoms Blooming" is for the sake of a gimmick, and the first-line Xiaohua and the traffic niche were found to act. The investors offered sky-high remuneration, and coupled with the overwhelming publicity and marketing on the eve of the release, the two companies invested a total cost of 3.6 million. go in.

Before the film was released, due to the large number of fans of the novel itself, and the popularity of the TV series with the same name a month ago, the industry was very optimistic, saying that it was guaranteed at 15 billion, and it was very hopeful that it would be the annual box office champion for 25 billion.

However, no one expected that such a much-anticipated movie would have a box office Waterloo after its release.

Only two hours after its release, "Peach Blossoms Blooms" had a good reputation, and Weibo and rating websites were full of complaints.The box office was affected, and it fell off a cliff. On the first day, there were still 2000 million after ticket subsidies and water injection revenue. 3000 million.

In the end, the movie barely survived for a week before it was cut in half, and the final box office was less than [-] million.

As a result of investing in bad movies, Daliao Company went bankrupt and went bankrupt, and the stock of Hengshui Film Industry also fell sharply, greatly hurting its vitality.

"The World of Looking at Faces" is also unlucky, both investors have invested in "Peach Blossoms", and now they are unable to protect themselves, and there is no way to continue to invest in other movies in the future.

Therefore, during the re-shooting period after the cast was changed, the set props, venue and various labor costs, because the funds had not arrived, the staff did not get a cent of the money for the ten-day filming.And the current situation is not only a problem of not being able to pay wages, but the more serious consequence is that the film will not be able to be released in the future because of the broken funding chain.

After working hard for a whole year, the crew of "The World of Faces" can be described as unlucky to encounter this kind of thing at the door.

Although after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is forbidden to become a master, the theory of ghosts and gods is considered nonsense.But in the entertainment industry, everyone is more or less superstitious.

Seeing "The World of Watching Faces" was blocked by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television because of the actor's drug use.

Due to various reasons, there is no investor in the industry willing to take over this ill-fated crew. Even if Director Zhu personally tried to attract investment, there was no effect.

So even though the crew of "A World of Faces" was very unwilling, they still had to face this reality, so several main creators decided to disband the crew after careful consideration for half a month.

"Director Zhu, why don't we do the post-production at our own expense?"

After all, it took a year and a half of hard work, and no one was willing to give up so easily. The desperate Deputy Director Liu still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Director Zhu shook his head, "So what if we do it in the later stage? What about everyone's salary? What about film production? What about publicity? What about marketing? We can generate electricity through love, but the audience can't."

In this era when the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, there is no publicity fee, no marketing, and the theater will not give many films, so it is very likely that the audience will not know that this movie has existed after the movie is released.

"Forget it, Lao Liu, you should call everyone to let everyone know, everyone has worked so hard for so long, it's not easy." Director Zhu's tone was full of regret and helplessness.

Deputy Director Liu sighed, and had no choice but to send WeChat calls to the crew one by one.

When Li Zhen received the call, he was watching the script of the new song MV of Dinghui's first sister Helena.

After listening to Deputy Director Liu's words, Li Zhen thought for three seconds calmly, and then said to him, "Director Liu, if you can trust me, I might be able to think of something."

After hearing Li Zhen's words, Deputy Director Liu regained his spirits immediately after hearing Li Zhen's words.

"Ah Zhen, can you do it?"

Although Assistant Director Liu said he was very happy to hear the news, he was skeptical when he calmed down.

It's not that Liu Song doesn't believe in Li Zhen, it's really that their production crew is too unlucky and poisonous this time, even the director Zhu Ma can't solve this problem, can Li Zhen, a newcomer, be able to attract investment overnight?

The follow-up series of expenses will cost tens of millions more!

"Well, I'll try my best."

"Okay, thank you Zhen, whether you succeed or not, Director Zhu and I are very grateful for your kindness."

Liu Song's tone was slightly excited.

Although they knew that the hope was slim, but when the crew was most in danger, Li Zhen had such a heart, which really surprised and moved them.

Moved is moved, but Liu Song also knows that this matter is difficult to handle, and he doesn't have too much expectation in his heart.

Early the next morning, Liu Song was woken up by Director Zhu's phone call.

"Old Liu! Yes, yes!!"

"What's the matter?"

"Investor!!! Invest 6000 million!!!!" On the other end of the phone, Director Zhu's tone was so excited that he was about to go to heaven.

Hearing this exciting news, Liu Song almost fell off the bed in shock.

"You, what are you talking about!!"

"6000 million!!! We have an investment of 6000 million!!!"

After listening to Director Zhu's words, Liu Song was stunned for several seconds.

"Old Liu, why don't you speak?"

After a short period of persuasion, Liu Song only said two words.

"Fuck!!!"

6000 million investment! ! !

In other words, they can have a luxurious 6000 million publicity fee in the future! ! ! !

This is fucking hell! !With so much money suddenly coming in, their crew is going to heaven!

Liu Song quickly inquired and further learned that their benefactor's father is a mysterious company called Zhenai.

The reason why they feel mysterious is because among all the investment projects in the entertainment industry, none of them has ever heard of this company...

Hmm... like it just popped up out of nowhere just to save them.

If it weren't for the fact that half of the other party's money had arrived immediately after the two parties signed a formal contract, the crew would never have believed that they would have been so lucky.

Of course, the man who dug the well is not forgotten when drinking water. The crew has money to solve the urgent need, so they are naturally very grateful to the benefactor.

Regarding Zhenai's act of sending charcoal in a timely manner, the grateful crew made the biggest concession with the sharing agreement they signed.At the same time, Director Zhu also set up wine in person, and invited Li Zhen and investors to dinner.

After Li Fa received the invitation, he directly refused, proudly expressing that he did not want to attend, as long as he silently stood behind his back as a real, rich father.

This kind of limelight is left to the son.

Li Fa didn't go, and Li Zhen didn't force him either.However, considering that director Zhu personally invited him, it would be too embarrassing not to go alone. In the end, Li Fa considerately sent his assistant who has been helping him with related matters in the entertainment industry recently.

There were not many other people at the dinner party in the evening, only five main creators and Li Zhen plus one chapter assistant.

It was thanks to Li Zhen's help that "The World That Looks at Faces" was able to come back to life this time. As soon as the dinner started, Director Zhu took the initiative to go to Li Zhen to toast and express his gratitude.

"A Zhen, you are the lucky star of our crew." Director Zhu raised his glass and explained to everyone, "Xiang Dong was arrested for taking drugs, and A Zhen came to rescue him. In this case, A Zhen also helped a lot. , It's really lucky that our crew met you."

Li Zhen folded his hands and shook his head modestly, "I want to thank Director Zhu for giving me a chance to enter the big screen."

A fool can understand who is helping whom.

But Li Zhen didn't take credit for his help, but instead thanked the crew. Although these words are polite, they are really sweet.

After hearing the words of Director Zhu and Li Zhen, everyone here felt very lucky. Director Zhu was really smart and educated, and he was able to invite Li Zhen into the group.

Assistant Zhang is also a person who will come, and interjected at the opportunity, "Of course such a good work must be shown to the audience on the big screen, otherwise it will be a loss for the audience. With Director Zhu's ability and the strength of the crew , the box office must be impressive, but in fact we picked up the loopholes and took advantage of the crew."

According to common sense, investors are all bigwigs in the crew, and they usually put on a particularly high profile.

But this time in Zhenai Company, although the big boss is said to have not come back from a business trip, the representatives sent by them are very talkative and do not pose, and put the crew on an equal footing with themselves, even if the signed agreement is indeed a big concession to the crew. It's a slow step, but the crew also made me feel very comfortable.

A dinner ended in an extremely harmonious atmosphere.

Although the conversation at night was more about the film project and subsequent announcements, etc., in fact, all the creative staff had a question in their hearts that they wanted to ask.

That is how Li Zhen, a newcomer who has just debuted, has such great ability to get them such a large investment in one night.

And what puzzled them the most was that even though Assistant Zhang was with the investor, his attitude towards Li Zhen was very respectful.

That's right, respect.

He didn't want to look like Li Zhen wanted something from them, but he felt like an investor was obedient to Li Zhen.

In such a deformed circle as the entertainment industry, there are many examples of investors who spend a lot of money, but most of them are invested by the money owners in order to win stars.

Looking at Assistant Zhang's attitude towards Li Zhen at night, everyone has been in the circle for a long time, and the first reaction is to think in this direction.

But even though the crew thought of this, they didn't think of Li Zhen as a person who was supported by the gold master, because whether it was Li Zhen's own noble spirit or Li Zhen's character, people believed that he was definitely not capable. Make a person who sells his body.

After this idea was ruled out, everyone became even more curious.

Finally, Deputy Director Liu didn't hold back, but cautiously asked Li Zhen about the origin of the investor.

Originally, he didn't expect Li Zhen's answer, but he didn't expect Li Zhen to tell him the truth very readily after listening.

"My dad voted for it."

It was voted by my dad...

it's my dad...

My Father……

These words kept repeating in Liu Song's mind like a roulette wheel.

Now that I have finally figured everything out, it's no wonder investors are so quick to spend money...

Nima turned out to be her own son who spoke!

Can you hurry up!

Liu Song silently glanced at Li Zhen, with unconcealable envy in his eyes.

Such a dad, please give me a dozen _(:3」∠)_
