The reason why Wang Cong had an impression of this movie was because he had worked with the director of this movie once.
According to the director, the production cost of more than two million yuan had resulted in a box office earnings of more than 13 million yuan. It was a bloody profit!
One had to know.
That was the box office earnings, not the other earnings.
In other words, this movie was definitely a model of a big movie.
Thinking of this…
Wang Cong looked at Huang Zhenqi." Since Teacher Lu is so helpful, let's give him some face. Get the scriptwriter and director to come over. I'll talk to them face-to-face."”
"Ah?"
Huang Zhenqi was dumbfounded.
She had thought that the boss would reject this matter, but she did not expect him to agree.
What was going on?
"Chairman, do you really think that there are still movies that can create miracles like Crazy Stone?”
Huang Zhenqi said carefully as he looked at Wang Cong.
In the past few years, Qian Ninghao had invested three million yuan in Crazy Stone and brought back thirty million yuan for Heavenly King Liu.
Many new directors and screenwriters often claimed to be second to Ning Hao.
But in reality.
In Huang Zhenqi's opinion, that was simply impossible.
The success of Crazy Stone was largely due to chance. It could not be replicated.
To put it bluntly.
Although many people wanted to be the second Ning Hao, Ning Hao couldn't even guarantee that if he could turn back time and make the same movie again, he would definitely be able to sold well the box office.
Thinking of this…
Huang Zhenqi looked at Wang Cong and said seriously,"Although the cost is not high, I think we should still be cautious.”
"Hahaha."
Wang Cong laughed when he heard that.
He understood what Huang Zhenqi meant.
To put it bluntly.
Lu Le recommended this script because he thought it was not bad.
However, if Yuan Da Film and Television invested in this script, it would easily give people the feeling that they were being cheated.
After all, it was too much for anyone's script to be able to attract investment from Vast Pictures.
"Don't worry."
Wang Cong looked at Huang Zhenqi and said indifferently,"Although there are some flaws in the script, I don't think it's a big problem. The audience now might like this kind of movie with a lot of jokes. We can't always live in our own spiritual world when filming. We're not the King of Sunglasses or Jiang Wen. We have to face reality.”
Hearing Wang Cong's words, Huang Zhenqi immediately fell silent.
He had to admit that what Wang Cong said made sense.
Many people in the film and television industry knew about Jiang Wen and the Sunglasses King. Naturally, they also knew that these two were top-notch directors.
However, they also had a common shortcoming, which was that the box office of their movies was extremely unstable.
Take Sunglasses King as an example. Back then, his debut work," The Story of Hoodlum ", had a good reputation at the box office and set off a craze in Hong Kong. He was also sought after by countless investors.
Deng Guangrong had even spent 30 million yuan to let him film the first and second parts of 'Carmen in Mongolia', claiming that he would break the box office record of Hong Kong.
In the end, after filming King of Sunglasses for half a year, the 30 million yuan was spent completely, and only half of the movie was filmed.
Helpless, Deng Guangrong could only admit that he was unlucky. He gritted his teeth and allowed him to continue filming. He only hoped that the movie would be able to earn back the box office after it was released.
In the end…
It was not surprising.
The movie had been released for 20 days, and the box office was less than 10 million yuan. However, it had even won the Hong Kong Film Awards.
Deng Guangrong was so angry that he had a heart attack and was admitted to the hospital.
As for Jiang Wen, he had done the same thing many times.
As an insider, Huang Zhenqi naturally understood what Wang Cong meant.
Even if the script of a money-losing top-notch director was written beautifully, a new company like Vast Pictures should not be involved.
On the other hand, if a low-cost script could be used to expand the market, it might have unexpected effects.
After all, if a movie invested five million yuan, according to the domestic share ratio, as long as it reached 15 million yuan at the box office, it could return the investment.
Not to mention the movie's advertising sponsorship and other income.
However, Wang Cong then remembered that the female lead of this movie was the sister-in-law who did her hair.
This was a little troublesome!
But on second thought, Wang Cong felt relieved.
Even if he wanted to do his hair, that would be a few years later.
Besides...
She was currently popular, and he was just using her popularity to make money. He wasn't doing anything else.
Thinking of this, Wang Cong revealed a happy smile.
As a businessman, he had to remember that business was business.
As for whether he should have any entanglements with his sister-in-law, Wang Cong thought about it and gave up. He did not want to have several brothers-in-law in the future.
