Chapter 13 Primitive Accumulation, Gossip
Li Chen’s youth and courage are exactly what Han Sanping likes.
"Okay! Young people should have such courage. Tell me how much the funding gap is, and I will make up for it."
"The budget cost is 20 million, including my own this time. The director’s fee and the screenwriter’s fee are definitely much higher than those of my two low-budget productions.”
"Well, it should be. How about this? China Film wants 50%, and the cost of publicity and distribution is included. How about it?"
"Okay, listen to Director Han."
Han Sanpingyi Stupid, I didn't expect this guy to be so straightforward. This guy should have made a lot of money from his movie "Jonkyo"?
Li Chen can't do it at all. There isn't much left in the company's account.
“I still plan to invite some other supporting roles this time, and they must be actors who have at least one film.”
"The shooting will have to wait until after The Stone is released."
"Okay, if you have any questions, come to me. By the way, The Stone should choose a schedule."
Han Sanping has already scheduled one copy The movie list was given to Li Chen.
“Uh, thank you, Director Han.”
“Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and watch.”
Not to mention, there are quite a few released on May Day.
"Senior Brother Xinzha" and "Entertaining Yourself", but Li Chen didn't take them seriously.
In recent years, except for a few big names such as the Infernal Affairs series and Big Brother Dragon, Hong Kong films have been unable to make any big splash at the box office.
Although Xie and Chen are very popular, they are useless.
Stone's main competitor is the imported blockbuster "Cold Mountain" starring Nicole Kidman, released on April 30.
and "Dark Force", which will be released on April 23.
“Director Han, let’s make it on May Day.”
Han Sanping raised his eyebrows and said, “Do you want to be at the same time as Leng Shan?”
Li Chen smiled: "Director Han, is this weird?"
"In the future, there will be more and more imported blockbusters, and domestic commercial films will be at the forefront sooner or later. Hiding is not my style!"
"Okay, you have the guts. Please tighten up the post-production and don't make a joke."
"Don't worry, Director Han, I will keep an eye on you."
When leaving from China Film Industry Got a copy of the actor's contact information.
Some actors have to be invited personally to show respect.
"Hello, Mr. Lu, I am Li Chen, a student in the Directing Department of Nortel."
"Okay, no problem. I will visit you tomorrow with the script."
Li Chen's plan is to wait for the film bureau's filing to be announced before contacting other actors.
After the revenue from Stone’s advertising placement arrived, Li Chen immediately called Zhang Qin.
"Hello, Director Li, I am Zhang Qin."
"No problem, but I have to remind you, Director Li."
"The leverage effect of futures not only amplifies profits but also magnifies losses by ten to a hundred times."
Of course Li Chen knows this, but the high yield of futures is most suitable for Li Chen at this stage.
"Director Li, the margin ratio of WTI international crude oil varies from 1% to 10% on each platform. That is, a leverage of 10-100 times. Are you sure you want to operate?"
"Okay , I understand, don’t worry, Director Li, I will keep an eye on you. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Li Chen unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.
He clearly remembers that a major incident in China in 2004 was related to short selling of international crude oil futures.
Since 2004, affected by various factors, international crude oil prices have begun to rise, and bulls have definitely made huge profits.
It will soar to a peak of US$55 per barrel by October, but has never fallen below the current US$32 per barrel.
He just asked Zhang Qin to keep an eye on it for him, and as long as it rose to $55, he would help him close his position immediately.
If nothing unexpected happens, by the end of next year, his net worth will exceed one billion.

Then it was reported that Chen Bolin, a popular boy in Baodao.
The same goes for Xiao Longnu. The CPs of Zhang Baizhi and Xie Tingfeng are also very popular.
Following this, Jun Ji-hyun appeared again.
It is indeed a bearded style.
In mid-December, a piece of news detonated the entertainment industry.
A Chinese drama student violently beat his girlfriend, and the couple made headlines for a while.
Poor, no one knows the big fish behind it.
In the end, the burdened father came out to apologize, pitying Wang Xifeng for being childless.
At the end of December, the box office of mobile phone and Infernal Affairs 3 both exceeded 30 million.
The media reported that mobile phones have great potential to surpass "Journey on the Road" and win the box office championship in 2003.
Li Chen felt funny watching the news. It’s so popular, it’s worth it!
Comparing him now with Xiaogangpao, he is definitely not the one who suffers.
On New Year’s Eve, Li Chen talked with his mother on the phone and surfed the Internet alone in the dormitory.
This year, my brother from Hong Kong Island passed away, Jay from Baodao became popular, and Grandma Liu from the Mainland also regained a new life.
Entering 2004.

The phone at the company's front desk was immediately buzzed with calls. Many actors called to ask if there were any opportunities to audition.

He told the company's front desk to always reply that the roles have been decided.

As for Zhu Yawen, Li Chen gave him a supporting role as a male policeman with lines. This guy was very happy.
For the role of father, Li Chen has tried every possible person in his mind, but he still can’t find the right one.
Forget it, go ask Teacher Tian to see if he has anyone suitable.
Li Chen slapped his forehead: "Teacher Tian, that's right! Why didn't I think of it, haha."
Li Chen finally thought of a suitable candidate for his father.
In a three-person Q group, the panda avatar is flashing.
"Pear, plum, have you received the invitation from that movie Shoplifters?"
No one in the group said a word.
It took about ten minutes before there was a reply.
"The director called me."
The panda avatar replied instantly: "Ah, so you agreed?"
"Yes."

"Congratulations, Meizi."
"Hey, you finally got the idea. We, Meizi, are the best actresses in Cairo. We have to work hard, Lizi."
