Chapter 184 Investing in shares, copyright
Traffic jams are inevitable in the capital’s road conditions, and they will become even more jammed in the future.
Lin Nan lowered the window and looked outside boredly.
Next to it is a wedding convoy of more than thirty luxury cars, which is quite impressive.
The group of people in the car on the other side look a bit familiar no matter how you look at them.
Just when Lin Nan was looking carefully, the window of the opposite car also rolled down.
"Director Lin, we meet again on the street, it's fate."
Qin Hailu smiled and shouted.
Lin Nan was confused, "Senior Sister Qin, are you married?"
As soon as he asked this question, Lin Nan knew that he was talking too fast.
"Hahaha, I think about it too, but I haven't met the right person yet. Liu Tao is getting married, and I will be the bridesmaid."
At this time, Lin Nan reacted. One of the "less" ones.
"Oh, I understand."
"Taozi has found the right person this time. He will announce his retirement from the entertainment industry today and focus on raising his husband and raising children..."
< br>Qin Hailu seems to yearn for this kind of life.
Lin Nan glanced at the car in front, "Senior Sister Hailu, please convey my blessings to the couple for me."
"Okay, no problem."
The car started slowly Moving, Lin Nan finally noticed the wedding convoy heading towards the Peninsula Hotel.
On the other side, Lin Nan drove to a high-end teahouse.
An antique Chinese teahouse with excellent privacy.
The waiter led Lin Nan outside a private room and left.
Knocked gently on the door.
“Come in.”
Lin Nan pushed the door open and said, “Mr. Wang, there’s a traffic jam on the road, I’m sorry.”
“Director Lin, you’re welcome, I’ve just arrived. , please take a seat.”
"Well, thank you."
"I should thank Director Lin. "Soldier Assault" has been of great help to our company. It has been two years and it is still the TV series with the best broadcast data on the website. 1. "
"My company is engaged in content, and Mr. Wang's company is for the audience, so we complement each other."
Lin Nan picked up the tea cup and toasted.
Wang Wei smiled and raised his cup.
"Thank you, Director Lin, for choosing to cooperate with us when Tudou was just starting out.
You are right. We are upstream and downstream, which complement each other. I am very willing to cooperate with Director Lin's company. But we still have to talk about specific issues.”
Hearing this, Lin Nan felt more relieved.
"Although Mr. Wang started a year earlier, he is far behind Mr. Gu of Youku in terms of raising funds..."
Lin Nan clicked.
"Yes, they have completed three rounds of financing, which is 50% more than mine. But how much can Director Lin invest?
As I said bluntly, most domestic investors are asking for money. . ”
“The first round was US$800,000, the second round was US$8.5 million, and the third round was US$19 million. Did I remember the figures for Tudou’s three rounds of financing correctly?”
Wang Wei Diandian? Head said, "That's right."
"I will invest 10 million dollars and will not interfere in Tudou's operations. I may or may not follow in the subsequent financing."
"How much?"
Wang Wei couldn't believe his ears. He knew that Lin Nan was one of the only major commercial film directors in the country, but he was too rich.
He begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother, and after three rounds, he only got nearly 30 million dollars in funds.
Looking at Wang Wei's expression, Lin Nan smiled.
"Have you forgotten, Mr. Wang? I have a company and I am not working for others. I sold the copyright of "Buried Alive" for 20 million dollars..."
"Do you really not interfere in the company's operations?" Wang Wei asked after a long time.
“I’m very busy, I don’t have time for that.
My recent investment in "My Captain, My Group" directed by Kang Honglei is about to start filming. When the time comes, you can still get potatoes , and the rights to play my movies..."
Lin Nan said slowly, Wang Wei was thinking.
He picked up the teapot and refilled a cup for himself and Wang Wei, and saw the latter raising his head.
"Welcome Director Lin, join the Tudou family, I will reduce the total amount of the fourth round of financing by 10 million."
"Happy cooperation." Lin Nan raised a glass.
“A pleasure to work with.”
…………
“I heard that Wall Street investors always care about the family of the investee when choosing investment targets. situation.
Single or married, is there any written agreement regarding property? Don't know if this is true or not? ”
“I have never heard of this, but I feel it is necessary. "
Wang Wei commented, thoughtfully, and looked at Lin Nan again, feeling that the latter's words were meant for him.
"Remind me? "Wang Wei murmured in his heart.
…………
Today, the Internet is full of news about Liu Tao's wedding and marrying into a wealthy family.
There were also many celebrities at the scene, including Hu Jun, Pan Yueming, Ren Quan, Qin Hailu...
When Lin Nan returned home, she happened to catch up with Liu Yifei's live interview on Sina.
In front of the camera, this girl is as sincere as ever and says whatever she wants.
When talking about her mother-daughter relationship with Liu Xiaoli, she was very candid.
"Basically, when I was ten years old, I accompanied my mother in her performances, and now my mother accompanies me.
She is an artist, and she is also the person who encourages and helps me the most in my art work. , one." When talking about the many speculations about her from the outside world, Liu Yifei said bluntly:
"It's just negative news. In fact, I know very well that this may just be everyone's opinion of me. I'm curious.
I just want to tell the audience that I am actually a two-faced person.
On the one hand, I am a slow-warming person and do not talk openly with strangers. Sometimes I am shy and do not like to talk. But the other side is very lively and crazy. People can only be like this with people they know very well and are very good with, hee hee..."
When Liu Yifei was asked if she had ever been in love or had a crush, her face was filled with tears.
"Let me keep my little secret, as long as I know it.
If one day, I get married, then he must be a perfect person..."
As he said that, Liu Yifei was still looking directly at the camera. Lin Nan on the other side of the screen felt a little overwhelmed. The feeling of looking at each other.
"Are you getting married? Miss Liu." Lin Nan laughed like a goose.
Which young actress nowadays is not hiding from the topics of love and marriage. Only Liu Yifei, a naive person, looked like she didn't care and didn't hide away.
In this way, it is more real and beautiful.
In the evening, Lin Nan received a call from the United States.
"Director Lin Nan, I am Ryan Reynolds. How are you doing lately?"
Lin Nan was a little confused, "I've been doing well recently, is there anything wrong? Ryan."
"I came here because of the time difference. I would like to invite you to attend my engagement ceremony in a while, right in Hollywood. ..."
After listening to what the other party said, Lin Nan said, good guy, I'm getting engaged to Scarlett.
Although "Buried Alive" helped Ryan Reynolds be nominated for the Best Silver Bear Actor, compared with Scarlett, he is still a strong woman and a weak man.
You got engaged after dating for only half a year. Is it because you are gifted? Lin Nan murmured in his heart.
"Well, if I am in Hollywood then, I will attend on time. Congratulations, Ryan..."
The domestic box office of "Assembly" is fixed at 260 million, plus the previous sales in Southeast Asia Hua Yi and Feng Xiaogang made a lot of money this time from the copyright.
On the day of the screening, a large celebration banquet was held.
Feng Xiaogang was even more proud of himself, and he was like no other.
If we only talk about the domestic box office, he is now the second-ranked director in the domestic box office. The 260 million is only lower than "The Golden Jacket" and higher than "The Time Cruiser".
Wang Baoqiang has been on the rise in the past two years. From "A World Without Thieves" to "Soldier Assault" to "Assembly", his popularity with the audience is so good that he has two programs in this year's Spring Festival Gala.

"Once we get the copyright, we can make it. Director Chen will direct the film himself. You can read the original work first to prepare for joining the team."
Wang Zhonglei said to Li Bingbing.
“Well, thank you, Mr. Wang.”
At this moment, someone knocked on the door and came in.
"Mr. Wang, something unexpected happened. They said that the copyright was sold in October last year."
This news instantly made Wang Zhonglei and Li Bingbing lose their smiles. .
"Who bought it and how much it cost?"
"Teacher Mai didn't say anything, but we found out the transaction price, which was 1.2 million.
Director Chen hopes that the company can help him get the copyright. "
Wang Zhonglei frowned, "Go and tell Director Chen, the company will handle this matter for him. "
"1.2 million is indeed worth the price, but which company bought it? "Wang Zhonglei couldn't guess at all at this time.
"Bing Bing, you go back first, I have to find someone to ask about this. "
"Well, then I won't disturb Mr. Wang. "Li Bingbing said and exited the office.
After Wang Zhonglei sat quietly for a while, he made a phone call and went out.
......
"Yangtze River No. 7" held a premiere press conference.
Zhou Xingchi’s appeal is really unmatched by anyone.
All media are almost here, China Film is the largest investor.
Han Sanping was at the scene and said meaningfully:
"Zhou Xingchi is a genius, everyone knows this.

Afterwards, many netizens were talking about Han Sanping's words, making it clear that they were talking about "Shaolin Football".

Actresses in Stephen Chow's movies always attract attention.
Several major domestic directors, such as Zhang Yimou and Zhou Xingchi, receive special attention every time they choose female roles.
Mou Girl, Star Girl.
Other great directors don’t have this kind of treatment because they are not new people.
“This Zhang Yuqi seems to be an actor from Xinghui.
It's definitely a good deal to wait four years for the heroine of Stephen Chow's movie, but I don't know if she will be the same as Huang Shengyi..."
The trailer for the Chinese version of "The King of Kung Fu" has been released.
In an interview with Sina, Minkoff revealed that he originally planned a kiss scene for the heroine
But in the end, after careful consideration, he crossed out that part of the script
“It was obviously me who suggested it, so why did it become the director’s decision after thinking about it? ”
Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan and asked.
"Mingkoff is okay. It's just a small matter. If it's you who made the request, how can those people on the Internet make trouble over nothing?"
Lin Nan sat on the sofa Go up, hold Liu Yifei in his arms and say.
"That's right, but I'm too lazy to care about those people."
As he spoke, Liu Yifei changed into a comfortable position and leaned against Lin Nan.
