Chapter 258 The return gift from the Crown Prince
In the conference room.
The data is on the big screen.
3 million box office.
Next to it, "Crazy Stone", a movie with an investment of 500 million, has a box office of 5 million.
Even higher is "Detective Chinatown", with an unknown investment and a box office of 12.4 billion.
Irony, too much irony.
This cost cannot be recovered.
Even if there are subsequent profits, the cost will definitely not be recovered, and the film will suffer a loss.
long silence.
Finally someone spoke.
"There is no doubt that the investment in this movie was a failure. According to market research, even without the influence of Ye Su's movie, it would be difficult for us to recover the cost."
"This time, the era of domestic box office of billions has begun. This is a big era. The market is getting bigger. We missed the opportunity to open it, but we cannot take the next opportunity."
"The company will continue to invest in the future..."
This is also a benefit for large companies.
Because they have more capital, they can continue even if they fail once.
At the same time, this is the disadvantage of large companies.
Even at a loss.
Also follow up.
Because they don’t want to fall behind, their peers are also launching projects aggressively.
So there is a lot of pressure in Dasheng International Company.
...
Of course, there are also happy directors.
"Hahaha~ This time, my movie can compete with this guy Ye Su's new movie." Jiang Wen said with a happy smile.
"Director Jiang, our publicity has been suppressed," someone reminded.
"Then keep throwing money."
"But our propaganda was suppressed."
"Then continue to promote it."
"Director Jiang, the enthusiasm over Ye Su's side is too high, and our publicity has been suppressed."
Jiang Wen: "..."
"It doesn't matter. In the end, the quality of the movie is still the best. The popularity is only temporary. I don't think the quality of the movie is worse than his." But soon, Jiang Wen said confidently.
Ge You and the others nodded.
Indeed, in terms of quality, Jiang Wen's movies are absolutely impeccable.
And just then.
A figure hurriedly opened the door and walked in, Jiang Wen's agent.
"No, there's a call from above. Your movie review is stuck."
Snapped!
Jiang Wen was furious on the spot, slapped the table and stood up, cursing: "Fuck!"
He was so ambitious, so why did he get bad news one after another?
"I'm going to make a call." Jiang Wen said with a dark face, holding his cell phone and going out.
...
And at the same time.
Ye Su's filming in Taiguo has come to an end.
The movie "A Journey to Thailand", because it is a road-style movie, shot more scenery and scenes of Taiguo, much more than "Detective Chinatown".
The filming was all in Bangkok.
And this time.
Bangkok’s gray industry crackdown has disappeared.
success!
The blow was very successful!
Bangkok was the first stop, and the successful cases made Thibangkorn and Stilva very excited.
And this day.
The filming of Ye Su’s last temple scene is completed.
"All plots in Taiguo are finished! There will be a bonfire party in the evening and free drinking of beer!" Ye Su announced loudly.
"Ho ho ho~"
"Long live Director Ye!"
"It's done!"
Everyone in the crew cheered.
The movie is not completely finished, and there are still a few scenes shot back in China, but it's almost there.
evening.
The hotel is brightly lit.
Ye Su led a group of people to the door of the hotel.
Tibongong said he brought him a gift.
Ti Bang Gong hasn't come yet.
A truck showed up.
There are Chinese characters written on the carriage: A gift to celebrate the completion of "囧".
Ye Su: "???"
Good guy!
The driver asked Ye Su to sign, then unloaded the car and dismantled the wooden box.
A discerning person would know it was a car at a glance, but not exactly what kind of car it was.
It just so happened that Ti Bang Gong also appeared.
"Ye Su, open it! This is one of the gifts I prepared for you!" Ti Banggong said excitedly.
"This is too expensive, I can't do it!" Ye Su refused instinctively.
"My friend, this is my gift, our friendship is priceless." Tibongong immediately said with an angry but sincere look.
Ye Su had no choice but to accept it.
Ye Su stepped forward, ready to lift off the car cover to see what kind of car it was.
In the eyes of everyone, Ye Su Su drove the clothes.
A sports car with a dynamic design and extremely luxurious design. The silver-gray coat is like a streamlined line, crawling there like a silent beast.
Ye Su recognized the make of this car and twitched his lips.
Aston Martin!
He had a premonition that Tibonggong would make a big move, but he didn't expect it to be so outrageous. Sports cars like these cost millions or tens of millions.
Tibonggong excitedly pulled Ye Su and introduced: "This is a car just produced by Aston Martin this year, the Vulcan. This car is full of racing atmosphere, because this car has a lot of reference materials. Drawings of the legendary one-77. It is actually the ultimate version of the one-77, just like the fxx model that Ferrari will launch. It uses a carbon fiber body, has a front-mid-rear-drive layout, and push rods. Suspension system, Michelin competition tires with 345/30r19 specifications on the rear wheels, and this, 7.0-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine, my friend, you know, the maximum power of this car is more than 800 horsepower, 6-speed sequential transmission ....”
Thibang Gong almost opened his mouth and it was obvious that this car was his favorite.
"Ti Bang Gong, this is your favorite, I shouldn't take away from others." Ye Su said with a smile.
"No, my friend, although I like you very much, you are my friend. This is my gift. There is a Chinese proverb: etiquette is light but affection is heavy. Although my gift is not very good, it represents the relationship between us. Friendship between us, your gift is the real heavyweight gift, don’t worry, I have prepared other gifts for you..." When Ti Banggong heard that Ye Su refused to accept it, he said eagerly.
Everyone in Yesu is numb!
He didn't feel the gift was light.
The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy. Is this how it is used?
In his last life, he was crazy about cars, but could never afford one.
If he remembered correctly, this car is the Aston Martin Vulcan, also known as the Aston Martin Vulcan. There are only 24 units in the world and it was produced in 2015.
The value is over fifteen million.
But now, one of them is in front of Ye Su.
Not to mention its value.
This kind of car, which has an officially stated production volume, will not depreciate in value, but will continue to appreciate in value.
Because it will become a scarce resource.
But Ti Banggong actually said that this gift was not very good.
You must know that Ye Su's total expenditure on filming "Detective Chinatown" and "Journey to Thailand" was only about 30 million, which included the salaries of all actors and various expenses.
Of course, these expenses were kept to a minimum and the best deals were obtained, otherwise the two movies would never have cost just this much.
Just like Wang Baoqiang's salary, it is almost 10 million for two movies.
But that's one thing.
It was another thing before my eyes.
The extremely luxurious sports car in front of me was worth the cost of a movie and was said to be a not-so-good gift.
This is the world's top tycoon!
Considering Ti Banggong's status and the value of the royal family, indeed, this is not an expensive gift.
So Ye Su couldn't refute it for a while.
