I'm almost a Muggle

Chapter 181 Bad News and Good News (16/16)

"I approved Mr. Wang's project, and the total cost will not exceed one million." Shi Shanshan also helped explain.

From a position perspective, she has this power.

"One million? How can this work? You can't just give it to people because you can't make money. Then what's the point of our so-called help?"

When Lin Dong heard that it only cost one million, he was immediately unhappy.

Do you want to piss me off and inherit my little magic wand?

Lin Dong doesn't want to work in distribution and gain experience. What he fears is that when the level of the distribution team improves, the movies he wants to lose money will release to high box office.

But now that I’m working.

It was a pitiful movie to be released for free, and he had no intention of obstructing it halfway.

But it would be outrageous if you didn't help me lose money when you clearly had the opportunity.

"What does Mr. Lin mean?" Wang Kuo and Shi Shanshan were both a little confused.

"Since we want to exercise, we should increase the issuance efforts. For example, invest five million or something. We are not short of this little money."

Boss Lin is considering whether to start a new business.

It is to help those literary and artistic films that have no money to distribute get distributed.

The system actually had no objections and gave a movie a free budget of five million yuan - provided that the movie got its approval.

It's really a waste of money business.

"Mr. Lin, the total production cost of the movie "Tiedan'er's Love Song" was only 1.2 million." Wang Kuo was moved and helpless at the same time.

It turns out that I misunderstood Mr. Lin.

Mr. Lin is as compassionate as himself.

Ma Si, who plays Tiedan in the movie, is one of the inheritors of the "two-person stage" opera genre.

In order to better showcase the national culture of Er-Tai Theater, many scenes were set up at the beginning of the filming to feature Er-Tai Theater Troupes performing in various places.

However, due to budget overruns, Ma Si, as the director of a theater troupe, did not ask for any remuneration.

I simply charged 30,000 yuan for truck fuel.

When the troupe stopped filming "Tiedan'er's Love Song", Ma Si not only did not make a penny, but also lost hundreds of thousands because he canceled many performances.

Wang Kuo heard this story.

Then I went to beg Shi Shanshan and decided to help distribute it for free.

"Is that so? The budget is only 1.2 million. What kind of movie can you make with such a small amount of money?"

But then again, good movies like Labyrinth of the Heart, Arrow to the Heart, and Piano of Steel didn't seem to cost much.

"Mr. Lin, this market is getting better and better, and the threshold is getting lower and lower." Wang Kuo explained helpfully.

"Uncle Kuo, please work hard on this project first. Don't take the initiative to look for work outside for the time being. In the next few months, you will probably be very busy."

Some of the films I had previously invested in were distributed by Crest Culture Media.

Wang Kuo felt so idle at this moment that he would be so tired that he would vomit blood.

"My new movie "Jiu Tu" requires 30 million to produce. I plan to start shooting next month, and maybe it will be released in time for the Lunar New Year." Du Qixi asked for money.

This was approved by Lin Dong.

So Shi Shanshan agreed on the spot, saying that the finance department would make the payment today, and wished Brother Qixi's new movie a big hit.

New road, poor road, this product is better than the road.

"Ahem, I also want money, but before asking for money, I have to tell Mr. Lin some bad news and some good news." Zhang Sanpang licked his lips, feeling that he was going to be in the limelight today.

"Don't be pretentious, just tell me directly." Lin Dong glared at him.

"Then let me break the bad news first. I have already contacted Penguin Video. They agreed in principle to buy out the variety show "The Wizard on the Tip of the Tongue", but they refused to appoint our artists as regular guests."

"What's the buyout price?"

Lin Dong is too lazy to care about regular guests. He no longer needs to go on the show to eat and drink - eating friends is called strengthening relationships, so what's wrong with it?

"Oh, Mr. Lin, how do you know that the buyout price is good news?"

Lin Dong's mind was buzzing. Looking at Zhang Sanpang's lewd smile, he felt a giant kun approaching quietly from behind.

"One hundred million!"

Zhang Sanpang was the first to applaud.

After everyone heard the news, they all stood up and applauded.

This news is so exciting.

Lin Dong invested 30% of the box office of "Thailand Is Not Easy" with over 1 billion yuan, which means he earned more than 1 billion yuan.

I didn’t expect that Zhang Sanpang, a variety show that he was determined to abandon, could be sold for a high price of 100 million. Are the Penguin people stupid?

Shameless, scum, shameless!

The villain living in the heart of the Wizard King has already opened his teeth and yelled curses.

"Dongzi, Dongzi, what's wrong with you, are you so happy that you're stupid?" Du Qixi felt a little too high and even changed his name.

"Haha." Mr. Lin tugged at the corner of his mouth, wanting to cry.

"Three Fatties, how did you do that?" Du Qixi quite gave face to his brother and played the role of admiration.

Just waiting for someone to ask this question.

If no one asks, there is no way to go on.

"I used a little trick, haha. I didn't take the initiative to go to Penguin Video to sell my tongue. I had people release the news that someone from Youdong.com contacted me and said that I wanted to buy out the variety show, and then Penguin couldn't help it.

Oh...haha..."

really.

Zhang Jincheng, you bitch, you have completely become a traitor.

That's how business is. Sometimes when you buy something, it's not about how much you need it or how valuable it is. Your purpose is just to prevent your opponent from getting it.

"Mr. Lin? Did I sell it cheap?" Zhang Sanpang looked at Lin Dong's ugly face, and his heart skipped a beat.

"No, what you sold is very expensive. After this matter is over, you can quickly do the "Tucao Show" for me. Don't delay. There is no need to waste too much time on such a small matter."

Lin Dong transforms into the Roaring Emperor.

And the employees are desperate inside.

Oh my God, 100 million is still a small thing. Our boss is too ambitious.

How much money do you have to make to make him smile?

Lin Dong was too lazy to pay attention to them and rushed back to Siam overnight to film.

Leave this sad place.

However, he has to fly back in a few days, firstly for the 13th Chinese Film and Media Awards Ceremony, and secondly for the endorsement contract.

When we arrived in Siam, he still didn't have many roles, mainly Wu Feng and Tony Jaa.

His task is to learn Thai.

Lin Dong gathered the words that needed to be said, found someone to record them, and practiced them slowly.

Although the memory potion does not require much gold galleons, but now it is a little less, Lin Dong is afraid that one day he will be short of two gold galleons before he can go back, but he will not be able to take it out.

Although learning in this way is slow, the warden doesn't have many lines, so it's not difficult to memorize them by rote.

In mid-August, Lin Dong flew back to China.

The time has come for endorsement signings.

In order to sign the endorsement contract, Crest Culture Media also held a special press conference.

Before the press conference, Lin Dong learned about Pei Qianlong's sexy tricks.

First, "Fashion" magazine discovered that the famous fashion designer from the corrupt country, the founder of Paul Smith, came to China.

The clue was that he uploaded the photo on his Twitter.

Then the fashion magazine invited this fashionista for an exclusive interview.

Unexpectedly, Paul Smith, who has always been low-key and rarely accepts interviews, actually agreed.

"Vogue" magazine had a great time chatting with him.

Then he asked him about the purpose of coming to China, whether it was traveling, photography, or something else.

Paul Smith regretfully said that he selected a brand spokesperson and was about to sign it, but he fell into a crisis of reputation.

In order to prove his innocence, this spokesperson refused their brand's invitation.

The exclusive interview also asked Paul Smith about his efforts.

It was simply shocking.

As soon as the press release came out, everyone was talking about it.

Many people have accused Lin Dong, a young man, of being ignorant. Why do you want to prove your innocence? You rejected an internationally renowned designer.

This is nothing.

You actually let a 60- or 70-year-old man fly to the capital, then to Xiangjiang, then to Siam, and then to the capital again...

In such a short period of time, I ran back and forth many times.

Do you understand respecting the elderly and loving the young?

It is generally believed that what happened before has been very clear, and Lin Dong does not need to prove his innocence at all.

Under the guidance of Pei Qinhu, the leader of the East Factory, public opinion was overwhelmingly in favor of Lin Dong signing the contract with him immediately.

Mr. Smith has to rush back to celebrate his wedding anniversary with his wife.

Let him live!

Let him live!

This is probably the direction of the trend.

So Lin Dong flew back.

So, the press conference was held.

So, Lin Dongshun signed a contract with Paul Smith.

Got 10 million!

Ten million after tax.

With this money, he could not only pay back the money he owed Zhou Bo to him, but also send some money to the two elders from the Northeast so that they could settle down and enjoy themselves.

You can also eat freely when eating.

You can also save some money to buy a house.

Heck, when I think about buying a house, ten million doesn't seem like a lot.

Speaking of which, I have to thank Pei Qianlong for the ten million.

After this guy was recruited, his first big move was to increase Lin Dong's popularity.

Lin Dong was quite disgusted with the hype at first.

I think actors just need to simply act well.

But later I discovered that the income of those who are good at acting is not as much as the income of those who have no acting skills.

Yes, not even a fraction can compare.

Wu Tie acted in a TV series last year and was paid only 40,000 yuan for a single episode, and over 1 million yuan for 40 episodes.

As for the traffic, for a 40-episode TV series, they have to get at least 8 million, and the top traffic starts at 30 million.

What is the reason for this gap?

Popular!

You can't say that the audience is all blind, but most of the audience are stupid.

They know whether the acting is good or not, but they are willing to be led by others to pay for the traffic.

Why do actors have to be poor?

We must also live in poverty and be happy, and a little bit of hype will be criticized by thousands of people.

Don’t actors need to eat?

Do actors have to sit at roadside stalls and eat?

Do actors have to live in a small house of 60 to 70 square meters with a family of several?

With the approval of the system, Lin Dong has decided to increase the salary of Pei Qianlong.

Due to the special nature of the company, Lin Dong was unable to obtain equity incentives, and the company was neither listed nor listed.

Therefore, Lin Dong’s strategy is to issue large packages at the end of the year.

A project like Zhang Sanpang has made a total of 200 million. If I give out a red envelope of 8 million, the system can't say that this is too much.

Pei Qianlong came in to do these things.

It's worth a three million red envelope anyway.

There is also Du Qixi’s new path.

There is also Shi Shanshan's "Northern Peace", which can also award millions.

You ask what "Peace of the North" has to do with her.

That's a big deal.

This girl went to almost all the satellite TV stations in the country and forcefully negotiated with five of them to premiere it.

Five-star broadcast.

Making millions and millions is really ridiculous. How can a boss be so stupid and sweet-tempered?

But Boss Lin is stupid.

He couldn't wait to give out all the money he earned.

You can't spend it casually, and keeping it will prevent him from making gold galleons. All fools know how to deal with it.

As for whether it will disrupt the healthy talent market order.

I believe that if anyone’s boss is really so generous, the employees will definitely not scold the boss for being so generous.

The only ones who find it chaotic are those who are bosses.

Those who give employees a salary increase of three to five hundred yuan a year, and ask employees to bow and thank them in the work group or even in person, why should they blame Boss Lin?
