I'm almost a Muggle

"Let's go in and eat. Let's talk while eating." Lin Dong took the lead and walked in.

Driver Tian Dazhuang followed him.

In addition to protecting his safety, she also took on the task of helping him drink.

Lin Dong doesn't drink, he firmly won't drink, and he won't give anyone any face.

So he arranged for Tian Dazhuang to help him keep the wine away.

After drinking, the company will send a new driver over.

Tian Dazhuang was a very drunk person. Lin Dong took him out and never saw him drunk.

However, for the sake of brother Dazhuang's health, Lin Dong gave him an extra salary. Tian Dazhuang, a driver, now has a monthly salary of 70,000, which is definitely a high salary in the company.

Wang Yingjun flipped through the menu in his hands, but he only ordered one green vegetable.

"So polite." Lin Dong shook his head.

Swish, swish, swish!

Nine dishes for three people.

This is already a very restrained approach.

After all, it's your own money you're spending.

When I had dinner with Liu Heyang and the others yesterday, the dishes Lin Dong ordered couldn't even fit on a large table.

"How about it? Lend me a little bit," Wang Yingjun looked at Lin Dong expectantly, and finally had an idea and patted his thigh: "If you can invest 500,000 in my movie, I will help you."

The paper is solved."

Mist grass!

This person is too shameless.

Lin Dong remained silent, just watching his performance.

"If the movie doesn't make money, how about I lend you the five hundred thousand?" Wang Yingjun gritted his teeth and continued to deceive.

He felt that Lin Dong was too difficult to fool.

He seems to be an ignorant young man, but in fact he is ignorant.

"Tell me first, why don't the movies you make make money?"

Teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish.

Lin Dong, a foreign devil, deeply believes in this ancient Chinese proverb.

You helped me lose millions, why not tell me the secret to losing money.

"There is an allusion that a singer visited Yingzhong in the state of Chu. At first he sang "Xialiba people", and there were thousands of people in the country who were harmonious; when the singer sang "Yang A Xie Lu", there were only a few hundred people in the country who were harmonious.

.When the singers sang "Yangchun Baixue", there were only a few dozen people who were able to reconcile in the middle school. When the song added some difficult skills, that is, "Introduce businessmen to carve feathers, and mix with flow to conquer", there were only three people in the middle school who were able to reconcile.

It’s just a few people. The final conclusion is, ‘The music is the best, the harmony is the minority.’ As an art student, can you understand?”

What a mess.

But Lin Dong finally understood a little bit.

This is not enough to explain his doubts. If you want to say that literary films must lose money.

Du Qixi's drama would not be like this now.

So he asked: "A new movie has been released recently called "New Road". Why do you think it was successful?"

"There are four top directors with a box office of over 100 million in the industry, namely Zhang Lue, Chen Ai, Ma Da, and Zhou Longxing. There are also four top directors with zero box office, namely Zhang Ke, Wang Bo'an, Tian Qiang, and the other one is me.

The Du Qixi you mentioned clearly belongs to another category, and his literary films are not literary at all."

When talking about Du Qixi, Wang Yingjun couldn't help but sigh.

In a sense, he is not even comparable to a young man who just came out of school.

Lin Dong memorized the names of the four people.

This was the first time he heard this statement about the four major companies having zero box office.

"How about you lend me some money and I will write a paper for you. You will never find a shooter as good as me." Wang Yingjun boasted, not thinking that this was an academic scandal.

"I don't need you to help me write my paper." Lin Dong shook his head.

"Just lend me a little." Wang Yingjun persisted in his persistence, not showing the demeanor of being a role model to others in the morning.

Lin Dong admired him very much, but also felt a little sad.

A representative figure among the sixth generation directors!

Regular visitor to the three major film festivals!

The existence that was supposed to be the center of attention and admiration was forced to become a rogue.

Debts are not repaid.

Isn't it difficult for him not to pay it back?

Cheating and cheating.

Maybe there is a crew that is filming a movie waiting for him to beg for help and go back to work.

"Let's do this. You will get back the one million you invested yourself. The French will give you 40% of the production cost of 10 million, and our company will make up the remaining 60% for you. How about that?"

Wang Yingjun looked at Lin Dong blankly.

After a long while, he shook his head: "This joke is not funny at all."

He thought Lin Dong was joking.

"You can go to our company with me later and sign the contract to transfer money today."

Lin Dong picked up the chopsticks.

The dishes have already started to be served.

Have a meal!

You have to pay for it yourself, so you have to eat more.

Wang Yingjun had no appetite and was dubious all the way until he stood in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital and saw two twins at the front desk.

He reacted as if he was startled.

"It turns out you are an artist from Krest Culture Media!"

"Oh? Teacher Wang also knows our company."

"You guys submitted so many artistic films last year, it's hard not to know."

There was one thing he didn't say.

At that time, I thought you wouldn’t be able to survive the New Year.

After all, for a shabby film and television company, you rented the most expensive place in the capital and coquettishly found two identical front desks.

This matter has spread in the circle.

Six million was transferred, the contract was signed, and Wang Yingjun burst into tears.

This drama doesn't require him to beg everywhere.

As a director with zero box office, almost no investors still support him.

In addition, he did all kinds of tricks and deceptions for filming, and even his friends avoided him. If he didn't borrow money, he would be a good friend. When it came time to borrow money, everyone was very busy.

What made him even more tearful was what happened later.

After signing the contract here, Lin Dong immediately made the settlement.

He is a bit neurotic now. He always doubts that this kind of movie will make a lot of money if it seems impossible to make money.

【Settlement in progress...】

[The project name is the movie "That Year I Was Eleven", with a production cost of 10 million yuan and a total box office of 4.98 million yuan. According to the investment ratio, you lost a total of 4.9542 million yuan. Congratulations on your successful loss]

[Since what is consumed is not the system’s initial capital, no Galleons will be settled]

[Settlement is over. Since the system account funds are not zero, a new round of initial funds will not be issued. The current fund balance of your system account is 117.7978 million yuan (excluding another 30 million yuan in the company account)]

[You also have a completed project called Northern Peace, do you want to settle it immediately?]

【no】

Lin Dong planned to serve Wang Yingjun first.

Anyone who can help him compensate is an uncle!

Those who help him make money are...

Ahem, okay.

It seems inappropriate to say that, but Wang Yingjun did a great job in this drama.

"Teacher Wang, when you make movies in the future, you don't have to run around looking for money. Just come to us directly."

Wang Yingjun almost fainted from happiness.

"Thank you, thank you, I don't even know how to thank you."

"Our company plans to hold a literary festival in the future and set up a film fund to specifically support, award and invest in literary films. We also hope that Teacher Wang will support our work when the time comes."

Lin Dong disdains the multi-million investment in artistic films.

But he understands the principle of adding up a little makes a lot.

If one literary film loses 5 million, wouldn’t ten movies cost 50 million?

You might say that there are also some weird things that can make money in literary and artistic films.

For example, "New Road" filmed by the traitor Du Qixi.

But that's only a minority.

Most literary and artistic films have completely failed.
