"Lin Tao's bold words to the horse racing director, is it arrogance or confidence???”
"The box office sales broke 10 billion. Is it really true? Lin Tao is already too arrogant to say that he's betting on the horse racing director!!!”
The media was boiling with excitement. This was big news. Lin Tao had always been conscientious in his filming and had no scandals. He also had very few advertising endorsements. It was not easy for the media to dig up news about him. But now, he had actually become high-profile and even attacked Director Ma!
The media pounced on them like sharks smelling blood. One of them had debuted for less than two years, but he was a popular newcomer, while the other was one of the top directors in the country. The two of them even made a bet across the air. It was completely a big show of the year!
Ma Xiaogang was a famous director in the country. He was one of the top directors in the field of comedies and New Year movies. He had won the national box office several times.
As for Lin Tao, although the three movies he starred in had high box office earnings, he had never acted as a lead actor before. Moreover, he had to direct and act in his own movie now, so the difficulty had increased by another level. Fisherman naturally had high hopes for Ma Xiaogang. How could a first-time director and lead actor like Lin Tao surpass Ma Xiaogang in box office results?
"Young people nowadays are not very capable, but they have quite a temper. I'm afraid that your movie might not even break through 100 million in the box office after it's released. I'll accept this bet.”Ma Xiaogang still accepted the bet. He was confident that he could easily crush Lin Tao's film.
He was the master of Chinese New Year films. Besides, the script and cast of this film were all made by Huayi Entertainment with a lot of money. The cast was all the best in the country. Now, the most popular comedy actor was the lead. How could Lin Tao compare to him?
"Director Ma, be careful not to bite your tongue in the wind. It's better to consider how you're going to bet this 100 million yuan.”
Lin Tao was also at loggerheads on Weibo. Although not many people were optimistic about Lin Tao, the popularity of their movies had already risen.
Charlotte's Worries versus Personal Tailor!
" Charlotte's Worries " would be starred by Lin Tao, while " Private Tailor " would be starred by the best actor, Ge You.
Ge You and Ma Xiaogang had worked together for more than ten years and had even won the annual box office championship several times. This time, Huayi spent a lot of money to create a new year's film, which was also aimed at winning the new year's film championship.
Tianhe Entertainment, Su Tianhe, Minister Li, and the others gathered together. They felt that Lin Tao was a little impulsive this time.
"Ah Tao, you're too impulsive. Director Ma isn't an ordinary little director. You might not have any hope of winning, and you'll put the company in a very passive position.”Sister Li was a little worried.
Although Tianhe Entertainment had decided to invest in Lin Tao's new movie, it was still too risky for Lin Tao to bet on Ma Xiaogang.
Moreover, it also put the company in a passive position. Originally, it was Lin Tao's first time directing. Even if the box office was not very good, as long as he did not lose money, he would be considered to have handed over a good answer sheet.
But now that he was betting with Ma Xiaogang, he was the big mouth of the entertainment industry. He dared to say anything. If the box office sales were bad, he would definitely be bombarded by him. Even Huayi Entertainment would hit him when he was down.
"Lin Tao, you're being a little impulsive. According to the company's plan, we'll slowly let you star in a few movies and push you to the A-list. But now, you've blown things up too much. This will be very detrimental to your development in the entertainment industry. After all, the other party is a famous director.”Minister Li said.
Although Feng Xiaogang was a well-known director and had connections in the entertainment industry, so what?
If he were to spit at her, would she be sent over to spit at him?
How could he be so cowardly with the system!!
"Yeah, you shouldn't have bet with Ma Xiaogang. His status and connections in the entertainment industry are far above yours.”The others didn't know, but Su Tianhe also advised.
"I only need 50 million yuan to invest in this movie. Don't tell me I can't even earn back 50 million yuan? Or do you think the risk is too high? If that's the case, I can invest a portion of it myself. That way, the risk of the company can be reduced.”Lin Tao said.
50 million yuan was not a lot of money, but Su Tianhe and the others had no confidence in Lin Tao's directing ability. Moreover, this was Lin Tao's transition work, and Lin Tao had never made a comedy before.
Since his debut, he had made two police and bandit films and one martial arts action film. It was unknown whether Lin Tao had any talent for comedy.
"I can invest 20 million myself, and the company will invest 30 million.”Lin Tao thought for a moment and said. His savings and endorsement should be enough. This " Charlotte's Worries " would definitely bring him tens of times the return!
"That's good too. The rest of the company will invest, and the additional investment will be paid by the company if the budget is insufficient.”Su Tianhe also felt that it was a good idea and supported Lin Tao's idea.
"Ah Tao, isn't this a little too risky? After all, the money you're earning now might only be 20 million yuan. "Won't you be betting all your savings like this? If you lose money..." Sister Li was worried.
"It's fine. I'm confident that this movie will definitely not lose money. I'm not so bad that I can't even earn back my 50 million investment.”Lin Tao laughed.
Minister Li brought over the investment contract that he had drafted. After signing it, Lin Tao finally heaved a sigh of relief and revealed a satisfied smile.
"Oh right, Lin Tao, I haven't read the script yet.”Only then did Su Tianhe remember that he had signed the investment contract without even reading the script.
