...... year Du Gaoxiang recalled the beginning and couldn't help but sigh.In 2014, Lemon Entertainment had the opportunity to launch a production plan for a big movie "Big Talk".At that time, there were four film investors attracted, namely Hualong Film and Television, Donghai Pictures and Yinshan Pictures, as well as the largest investor introduced at the last moment, Donghai Xihe Financial Investment Co., Ltd.The five film companies invested a total of 2.6 billion yuan in the development of the big movie "Big Talk".But with the filming of the movie, the news that the film crew director kept crying poor was constantly exposed on the Internet.For example, Richard Donne, one of the leading actors at that time, took a private jet to the East China Sea, but the crew only had less than 20,000 yuan, and the hotel deposit was 100,000 yuan, so the director paid out of his own pocket.In addition, the trucks and other props driven in the play were also purchased by the director in advance.As for why there is no money, of course, it is because no one has approved it.The management side is a multi-level system for filing, and if you want to get money, you must go through layers of review, and no one can do it without approval.According to the director later, the actual filming fee of the crew only cost less than seventy or eighty million.So, where does the rest of the money go?
The answer is to invite celebrities.The funding of the whole film is divided into two sections, the film crew manages the funds in the filming process, and the money for inviting the main actors and special actors is responsible for Xihe Film and Television.But the director found out that something was wrong when he was filming the film, there has always been a steady stream of stars suddenly joining the set, and the roles of these actors are all added by the screenwriter, the costumes are freshly made, and the scenes are also newly covered.The more than 1,500 people in the whole group were all busy with all fours, and in the end, under the rough cut, the whole film was as high as more than 5 hours, a good movie, and it was almost made into a series.Why invite so many celebrities to help?
This involves the unspoken rules of the industry, and it is said that you can do tricks and feet on the salary.And then use it to launder the money that should be used as the cost of the film into his own pocket.One of the ways to do tricks and feet is the yin-yang contract.The filmmaker pays the star a certain salary, but the actual salary of the star is only half, and the remaining half is missing.At that time, Yinshan Pictures was the first to find out that something was wrong, and the person in charge, Wang Rui, stopped the project and immediately withdrew when the film was less than halfway through the filming, but even so, it was the first loss of Yinshan Capital, which made Wang Rui quite angry."
Dahua Jianghu" has a good script, a good production team, and a great cast, coupled with a huge amount of investment, which can show the huge potential of this film.But what Wang Rui never expected was that Lemon Entertainment would unite with Xihe Pictures to use this movie to launder money frantically.Almost all of the money of Xihe, the investor of the film, is earned by selling financial wealth management products.In other words, Xihe earned the people's money by selling wealth management products, and then invested in "Dahua Jianghu", and then put the money into his own pocket through operational means.This money laundering model makes Wang Rui quite disdainful, but whether it is Lemon Entertainment or other investors, they turn a blind eye to this phenomenon, because part of the money laundered by Xihe will flow into the pockets of these investors through various means.If Yinshan Pictures is willing to go along with the dirt, then everything is naturally easy to say, and everyone makes money, but Yinshan Pictures is an outlier, and even almost exposed this scam at that time, and later after the joint pressure of many parties, this matter was slowly faded.Since then, no one has been willing to play with Wang Rui anymore, and even many companies have joined forces to boycott Yinshan Pictures.It's just that the golden carp is not a thing in the pond.In just seven years, through Wang Rui's precise investment, Yinshan Capital has continued to grow and has become a unicorn in the entertainment industry.The projects invested by Yinshan Capital have formed a high-quality brand, and many actors and directors have joined with their own salaries.In this case, companies such as Lemon Entertainment are gradually abandoning their previous suspicions, and smiling with a shy face and taking their artists to get the announcements of each other's works and programs.And Wang Rui doesn't seem to want to make trouble, he has turned a blind eye to each other over the years, and he has been at peace with each other.After that, whether it is Han Yu or the first sister of the draft, Zhou Tingting, can continue to become popular, and it is not unrelated to the projects invested by Wang Rui.Now, knowing that the person behind the scenes is Wang Rui, the entire senior management of Lemon Entertainment instantly thinks of these things that happened seven years ago."
Dahua Jianghu" took five years of production, and the box office claimed to reach 1.4 billion after its release, but discerning people know at a glance that the box office is too fake, and it is already rare for the whole movie to recover its cost.As a result, the film review website has a score as low as 35 points, and there are countless bad reviews.If it weren't for the participation of many stars at home and abroad, the star effect was significant, and a large number of fans paid for it, this kind of bad movie might not even be 100 million box office.For the public, this movie can be called a phenomenal blood loss.But for investors, it is a sure win.The loss is only those ordinary people who buy and sell wealth management products.It's just that because the amount of buying and selling is huge, and the number of people is large, and when it is apportioned, it seems that every ordinary person's account is painless.Although this matter was criticized for a while, it did not make any waves in the end.But for Yinshan Capital, this is probably the first time Wang Rui has made a mistake in such a project, although the investment was withdrawn immediately, the loss of Yinshan Pictures was as high as millions, and this account now seems to be a good calculation."
It's been seven years ago, and over the years, we have cooperated with Wang Rui many times, mutual benefit and mutual benefit, we are good partners, don't talk nonsense."
Du Gaoxiang reprimanded the board member who beat his chest and blunt feet, and said solemnly: "This time, it's just Han Yu's personal situation that has affected the company, and it has nothing to do with Wang Rui......
Although he said this, Du Gaoxiang knew in his heart that this reason was a little untenable.The relationship between Wang Rui and Fu Yuntao is not known by too many people in the industry, but careful people can find that behind all of Fu Yuntao's works, there is the shadow of Yinshan Investment.And Du Gaoxiang knows that Yinshan Capital has been able to grow in the past seven years, and it has a huge relationship with Fu Yuntao, the godfather of variety shows.For Du Gaoxiang, Han Yu offended Fu Yuntao, which was equivalent to offending Wang Rui, so letting Han Yu personally kneel in front of Fu Yuntao to admit his mistake and apologize was the best result.But at the moment, it seems that the effect is not ideal.Du Gaoxiang looked at the mobile phone on the desktop and fell into deep thought, this Wang Rui, he didn't answer the phone, what did he want to do?
At this moment, the mobile phone on the desktop buzzed again.The whole conference room, everyone looked over.Du Gaoxiang quickly answered: "The call is through?"
”"No, no......"
After a pause, the answer on the other side of the phone stammered and said in a trembling voice: "But Du Dong, there is something I must remind you......
Something happened to our company!
Something is wrong!
Check it out on the Internet!
