Finished the meal.
"Hu Yibao, would you like to sit for a while?"
Chen Yu wanted to keep Hu Yibao.
After a chat, Hu Yibao really liked his personality.
If it was his own son, he would wake up laughing in the middle of the night.
"Really not!" Hu Yibao said with a wry smile, "The entire crew of [Charlotte's Troubles] is waiting for me."
Judging from the time, everyone from the crew of "Charlotte's Troubles" should be waiting at the Golden Palace.
If I wasn't good enough as a director, I wouldn't be able to film "Charlotte's Troubles".
"Then come again next time!" Hu Yibao, who puts his career first, was more pleasing to Chen Yu.
"Dad!" Chen Dong immediately stood up and volunteered, "I'll go see him off."
Looking at Chen Dong's excited expression, how could Chen Yu not know what he wanted to do.
However, if Chen Dong and Hu Yibao hang out together, Chen Yu will not control them too much. After all, Chen Dong is already in his twenties, and it would not be appropriate to control him any more.
"Go early and come back early!" Chen Yu nodded and said.
After getting his father's consent, Chen Dong quickly picked up the car keys on the table and said, "Okay, Dad!"
"Dad, I'll go see you off too." Chen Jie stood up.
However, Chen Yu stopped him directly, "What are you going to do? Rest at home and go to work on time tomorrow."
"Go to bed early." Hu Yibao turned around and said to Chen Jie at this time.
Chen Jie nodded helplessly and said, "Okay!"
Drove out of Chen Dong's villa.
A Maybach and a Porsche.
Go straight to the Golden Palace.
Zou Guowen was driving. Hu Yibao used his mobile phone to search for relevant information about Yida Cinema, which is under the Chen Group, and then called Jiang Gangmeng.
As soon as the call was connected, Jiang Gangmeng's voice came from the other end.
"Mr. Hu, have you had dinner?"
Hu Yibao said, "I just finished eating and am now heading to the Golden Palace. Are you guys in the Golden Palace now?"
Jiang Gangmeng: "Well, we just arrived. I talked to the owner of the Golden Palace and they are setting up the filming location now. Mr. Hu, you are here and we can start filming right away."
"Then I'll trouble you, Director Jiang!" Hu Yibao said politely, and then directly mentioned the matter of directing the cinema. "I have already met with Chen Yu, Chairman of the Chen Group, to discuss the screening schedule of "Charlotte's Troubles"."
Jiang Gangmeng quickly asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Gangmeng is not worried about the quality of "Charlotte's Troubles", the only thing he is worried about is the screening schedule.
In the film market, some films are indeed very good.
However, due to scheduling issues, the box office revenue it earned until it was taken off the screen was not commensurate with the quality of the film.
Among these, there are so many things that I think can be done.
Yida Cinema, the leader of domestic cinema chains.
If we can reach an agreement with it, then there will be no problem at all with the scheduling of "Charlotte's Troubles" next time.
Hu Yibao replied.
"Chen Yu and I had a bet."
"If Yida gives me 10% of the screenings, I bet the final box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" will be 200 million! If Yida gives me 30% of the screenings, I bet the final box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" will exceed 500 million. If Yida gives me 50% of the screenings, I bet the final box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" will exceed 1 billion!"
"If I win, 40% of the total ticket revenue from Yida Cinemas will go to Yida Cinemas. If I lose, 100% of the total ticket revenue from Yida Cinemas will go to Yida Cinemas, and I will also sign a contract with Yida."
Hu Yibao repeated it word for word.
"This..." Jiang Gangmeng on the other end of the phone was stunned and didn't know what to say.
The final box office of "Charlotte's Troubles" exceeded 1 billion, but it was just my estimate.
There are still many unstable factors.
What if Yida really gave more than 50% of the screening time and the box office failed to exceed 1 billion, then this time "Charlotte's Troubles" would suffer a huge loss.
Even Hu Yibao himself will be involved.
"Do you think I'm too impulsive?" After not getting a reply from Jiang Gangmeng for a long time, Hu Yibao could guess the shock in his mind at the moment and couldn't help but say.
Jiang Gangmeng: "It was indeed too impulsive."
Jiang Gangmeng immediately asked, "Mr. Hu, has the agreement been signed?"
The latest novel is first published on Liu9shuba!
"Not yet. It's just a verbal agreement at the moment," Hu Yibao replied. "In two days, Chen Yu will help connect Yida Cinema and my New World, and we'll sign the contract directly."
After he finished speaking, Hu Yibao could clearly hear that Jiang Gangmeng on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Hu, there's still time."
"A bet of one billion is really too big."
"Let's protect our principal and see if we can negotiate with Yida to reduce the amount to 800 million."
"One billion is just a summary of my original idea for the script of Charlotte's Troubles. As for what the final film will look like, we don't know yet, so we can't be so hasty."
To be honest, Jiang Gangmeng really admired Hu Yibao's courage. On the first day of filming for "Charlotte's Troubles", he dared to bet 1 billion at the box office with Chen Yu.
Looking at the current film market, that is almost an astronomical figure.
"Hahaha, Director Jiang, it's okay!" Hu Yibao said with a nonchalant smile, "I'm very confident in the movie 'Charlotte's Troubles'. It will definitely break 1 billion."
Hu Yibao knew that Jiang Gangmeng was doing this for his own good, but once something is said, it cannot be taken back. Moreover, Hu Yibao made this bet after careful consideration.
Right now, he and Chen Yu were in an unequal position when conducting the transaction.
If you want to attract his attention and get him to agree to a deal, you have to propose a condition that makes the other party think they will make a sure profit, and he will agree to cooperate.
Otherwise, how could a tycoon with a net worth of hundreds of billions and controlling a group worth nearly one trillion yuan possibly discuss things with you in person?
Because you look handsome?
Although this is only one aspect...
What's more important is the benefits.
Only when he sees the benefits will there be a possibility of cooperation.
"By the way, Director Jiang, how was the meal at Lao Tong's house tonight?" Hu Yibao immediately changed the subject and asked with a smile.
"Oh!" Jiang Gangmeng also knew that Hu Yibao didn't want to continue talking about this matter, so he could only sigh and answer Hu Yibao's question.
"Great food, good value!"
"Especially their sweet and sour pork ribs, it's really the most delicious thing I've ever eaten in my life."
…
Chatted for a while.
Hu Yibao then hung up the phone.
I looked at the time and it was already past seven o'clock.
After finishing the filming, I don't know when I'll dare to go back to the martial arts gym.
Hu Yibao immediately called Nie Chen.
