Li Xingchen's trust benefited An Weiyang a lot, and the smile on his face became much more sincere.
Now that Li Xingchen agreed, An Weiyang also asked the most crucial question:
"Now that you have decided to invest, what is your budget?"
"Budget? Generally, how much budget is needed to make a movie like this?" Li Xingchen really didn't know anything about this aspect.
"If you save a little, 3000 million should be enough." An Weiyang recalled the entire script of "Silent" and quickly came to a conclusion.
Now to make a movie, apart from the cost of making the movie itself, the actors' remuneration actually takes up a large part of it.
But if Li Xingchen invested himself and acted as the male number one, he would be able to save a lot of money in terms of remuneration.
The 3000 million is still because "Silent" is an action movie, which requires some special effects shots.
"Of course, if you think it's a bit much, 2000 million should be fine."
Seeing that Li Xingchen didn't speak, An Weiyang thought that 3000 million was too much, thought for a while, and gave a new number.
After all, Gu Tiandong dared to start the audition with only 500 million in hand, and 2000 million can be regarded as a huge amount of money.
Who knew that Li Xingchen opened his mouth and asked a question that An Weiyang didn't expect:
"What if you don't save money?"
"At least 5000 million. Of course, it depends on which actors are going to be hired for other roles. If the male number two and the male number three want to hire more famous actors, it may need at least 8000 million."
Although he gave such an answer, An Weiyang did not think that Li Xingchen would invest 5000 million yuan.
After all, from Li Xingchen's debut to the present, all the remuneration added up is not enough to 5000 million.
"Then let's give five thousand first. When the time comes, it will depend on the casting. If there is less, I will make up." The Master of the National Teacher said that since he wants to invest, he must do his best.
Reducing the quality in front of the lens in order to reduce costs is not allowed in front of the National Teacher.
"Okay... what?" An Weiyang nodded subconsciously before realizing something was wrong, and turned to look at Li Xingchen. Did he have auditory hallucinations just now?
"5000 million, make up if there is less." Li Xingchen glanced at An Weiyang, why did he feel that his manager was not very smart sometimes?
"Well, do I need to ask Master Qi first?" An Weiyang asked hesitantly. In his heart, Li Xingchen could come up with 5000 million, so he had to ask Master Qi for money.
Although Fu Qiye usually seems to love Li Xingchen very much, An Weiyang is used to plastic love in the entertainment industry.
In many cases, it is one thing to be favored at ordinary times, and another thing when you ask for money, especially a small number like 5000 million.
"My own money, what do you ask him to do?" Li Xingchen saw what An Weiyang was thinking at a glance, and directly dispelled An Weiyang's worries.
An Weiyang:? ? ?
If Li Xingchen didn't take it for granted, An Weiyang even suspected that Li Xingchen was joking.
Why didn't he know when his artist became so rich?
How did An Weiyang, who was full of surprise, know that various remunerations in the entertainment industry are not Li Xingchen's main source of income.
5000 million, sometimes even just the price of Li Xingchen's one-time sale.
It's just that before the surprise in An Weiyang's heart dissipated, Li Xingchen stuffed a mouthful of dog food:
"Besides, even if I don't have one, what's the matter with using his money? His is mine."
With an upright and confident appearance, no one would doubt the authenticity of Li Xingchen's words.
In order to refuse the attack of dog food, An Weiyang turned around quickly and began to discuss Li Xingchen's investment with Gu Tiandong.
As Li Xingchen's manager, An Weiyang naturally wanted to fight for Li Xingchen's best interests.
Coupled with Li Xingchen's "5000 million" as his confidence, An Weiyang was even more handy in negotiating, and he went all out with full firepower.
Li Xingchen was about to suspect that An Weiyang was a negotiator as the principal and a manager as the deputy was with the witty words.
As for Gu Tiandong?
Li Xingchen's investment in "Silence" has long been thrown into his head, and he lost his ability to think.
Naturally, Gu Tiandong agreed to whatever An Weiyang said.
After the contract was signed and everything was settled, Gu Tiandong still felt unreal.
If one day before, someone told Gu Tiandong that there would be popular traffic in his movie, and this traffic would invest in him.
Gu Tiandong will definitely reply "I never daydream", but now he is not only daydreaming, but even the daydream has become a reality?
The most important thing is that Li Xingchen is probably the most popular type of investor for directors.
Don't meddle in the crew's affairs, don't dictate the script, don't force any actors...
The only condition is some arrangements for the time after booting:
"Xingchen's habit is not to ask for a long time off during school, so we hope to focus the shots of Xingchen on the winter vacation as much as possible."
"If you don't have enough time for the winter and summer vacations, you can relax a little bit, but it's best not to waste too much time in class. It's best to control the vacations of each semester to about one month."
Gu Tiandong was not surprised by this request.
While waiting for An Weiyang to come to City B, Gu Tiandong had already learned all the information about Li Xingchen since his debut.
The most important one is that Li Xingchen went to H University, which is ranked high in China.
When he saw the news, Gu Tiandong knew that there might be a little trouble in terms of the shooting time.
After all, not to mention that Li Xingchen is in H University, even if he is a student of Zheng'er Bajing Film and Television Academy, he can't easily ask for leave to join the group before his sophomore year.
So when An Weiyang raised this question, Gu Tiandong agreed without thinking much.
Gu Tiandong had no objection to the shooting time, and naturally there were no problems in other aspects.
In less than an hour, An Weiyang and Gu Tiandong reached a consensus——
"The first tranche of funds will be transferred to your account later, happy cooperation." An Weiyang put away the contract on the table, and extended his hand to Gu Tiandong.
"Happy cooperation." Gu Tiandong, who still felt like he was dreaming, quickly stood up and reached out to hold An Weiyang's outstretched hand.
During the entire negotiation process, Li Xingchen only did three things:
Onlookers eat melons, act as ATM machines, and sign.
Li Xingchen invested in a movie, and Fu Tingshen soon received the news.
It's just that Li Xingchen didn't take the initiative to bring it up, but because of the bank transfer information.
Because they had exchanged bank cards with Fu Tingshen earlier, the phone numbers of both Li Xingchen and Fu Tingshen had been registered at the bank.
Fu Tingshen will also receive news from the bank when there is a large amount of capital change.
So Li Xingchen transferred the money to Gu Tiandong on the front foot, and received an inquiry from Fu Tingshen on the back foot.
"Do you need my help?" This was Fu Tingshen's first reaction after hearing that Li Xingchen had invested in the movie.
In Fu Qiye's eyes, the 5000 million film investment can even be called shabby.
Which one of the movies that are placed in the prosperous world every year doesn't start with [-] million?
"No need," Li Xingchen directly refused Fu Tingshen's help, and then saw Fu Tingshen's regretful eyes, and immediately laughed a little, "Aren't you afraid that I will lose money?"
Whether "Silence" can make money, Li Xingchen himself has no idea, he will invest, but because he likes it.
"Not afraid," Fu Ting smiled deeply, raised his hand and rubbed Li Xingchen's head, "We can afford it."
The standard overlord's declaration, if placed outside, would inevitably cause a lot of little girls to scream, but unfortunately, Li Xingchen is not a little girl.
So I just glanced at Fu Tingshen, and then lightly reprimanded:
"Tsk, prodigal."
"As long as it's what you like, it's not a prodigal." For Li Xingchen's point of view, Fu Tingshen disagreed.
He works hard every day to make money, isn't it just to make Li Xingchen happy?
How can it be regarded as a loser?
It's also because An Weiyang is not here, if An Weiyang is here, after hearing Fu Qiye's remarks, he will definitely want to turn around and ask the self who asked if Li Xingchen spent 5000 million yuan to ask Fu Tingshen .
"Be careful that I will ruin all your family fortune." Hearing Fu Tingshen's words, Li Xingchen couldn't help but make a little joke.
"Let's lose, even if you lose everything, I can earn it back."
Fu Tingshen didn't take Li Xingchen's "threat" to heart at all, and replied with a smile.
While speaking, he took out an invitation card from a side drawer and put it in Li Xingchen's hand.
"What is this?" Li Xingchen took the invitation card in his hand, opened it, and found that it was an invitation card for an auction.
"Didn't you say you want to prodigal? Give you this opportunity to go with me tomorrow night? Huh?" Fu Ting explained to Li Xingchen with a deep smile.
Fu Tingshen seldom participated in ordinary auctions in person.
But this auction was different.
Leaving aside the fact that the person who gave Fu Tingshen the invitation had a good relationship with Fu Tingshen, as for the organizer of this auction, Fu Tingshen also needed to go.
The initiator of the auction is an elder of Fu Tingshen, and he has a good relationship with Fu Tingshen's father.
This kind of auction not only allows people in the same circle to exchange feelings and exchange information, but also the auction items will not be too bad. Sometimes it is not uncommon for a auction item to fetch tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.
So it's not an exaggeration to say that you're going to prodigal.
"Will it be inconvenient?" Li Xingchen looked at the invitation in his hand again, but did not refuse directly.
"There is nothing inconvenient. The auction can only be entered by invitation. There are not many people who receive invitations, and there will be no media."
Fu Tingshen immediately knew what Li Xingchen was asking.
As for whether those who participated in the auction would tell about his relationship with Li Xingchen?
This point is completely out of Fu Tingshen's consideration.
Those who can receive the invitation will not be said to be of the same status as Fu Tingshen, even if they don't want to be, they will not be too low.
They are all in the same circle, and they usually look up and down, so they naturally know what to say and what not to say.
"Then go." After receiving an affirmative answer, Li Xingchen nodded reluctantly.
Now that Li Xingchen agreed, An Weiyang also asked the most crucial question:
"Now that you have decided to invest, what is your budget?"
"Budget? Generally, how much budget is needed to make a movie like this?" Li Xingchen really didn't know anything about this aspect.
