"Mr. Fan used to do Internet finance. He was very wealthy and willing to spend money. We can't compare with this."

Tang An added, "It seems that the two movies "Dear" and "Return" have reached 500 million."

"Dear" is invested by Guangxian and Xingmei, while the main investors of "Return" are Lay's, Wanda and CTI.

They did not hide it. The 400 million yuan for "Dear" was given to Ah Li. Guangxian and Xingmei recovered the cost in advance and made a lot of money.

"The guarantee of 400 million is not low. I discussed it with Director Qin and gave it to Ah Li." Wang Changtian chuckled and was very satisfied with the price.

Wang Changtian has always been cautious. He always likes to use small things to achieve big goals, and rarely does high-risk projects.

I didn’t take the 800 million guarantee for “Wolf Warrior 2” because it was too risky, so Wang Changtian didn’t take the gamble.

As for "Return", Lay's and Wanda had confidence in the combination of Zhang Yimou and Gong Li, but Ah Li was only willing to offer a maximum of 600 million, which still couldn't impress them.

Tang An thought for a while and said, "It seems that Li has some sense of restraint and won't spend money recklessly."

Wang Changtian said, "In comparison, it's still a waste of money. Tang Dong's guarantee for "Heart Blossoms on the Road" is only 700 million."

Jiang Wen's last movie was a hit at the box office and was well-received. This time "One Step Away" is very much anticipated. The guarantee of one billion can only be described as a big gamble, not a big win.

After all, it is still a comedy, a popular genre, and the audience is wider.

"Dear" stars Zhao Wei and Huang Bo, who are both very popular. Although the subject matter is not pleasant, 400 million is also a gamble.

Although "Return" has the combination of Zhang Yimou + Gong Li and also stars Chen Daoming, his previous "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" did not have a very good reputation and the box office was only over 600 million.

Moreover, this is a biographical love movie with an even smaller audience.

Ah, Li didn't give out money blindly with his eyes closed, and he also went through precise analysis. Otherwise, he would not be a wealthy owner, but someone who had been taken advantage of.

Lay's and Wanda did not accept the 600 million guarantee because they had confidence in Zhang Yimou. After all, if the issue was handed over to others, they would lose a share of the guaranteed share.

Even if the box office is only 500 million, plus the distribution share, it is not less than the guaranteed profit of 600 million.

"I have never received a guarantee request from Ah Li. For this "Mysterious Superstar", if Ah Li dares to guarantee a minimum of 2 billion, maybe I will give it to him." Tang An joked again.

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, and Wang Changtian's eyes suddenly lit up.

But I immediately gave up this idea. It would be great if it succeeded. The gains from the stock market alone would be huge.

But once it fails, it's game over and it's a gamble on the future of the company.

Yu Dong smiled and shook his head, "Haha, Director Tang is just kidding. I don't think Mr. Fan can offer this price."

However, Wang Zhongjun tentatively said, "I think if it's 1.5 billion, Ah Li might be able to agree."

"I was just joking. There are more and more publishing companies now, especially those small and medium-sized companies. There will be more and more such gambling in the future." Tang An smiled and sighed.

Those small and medium-sized companies are gambling. They not only issue guaranteed products, but also sell IP to invest in large-scale productions.

Give it a try and your bicycle will turn into a motorcycle; take a gamble and your motorcycle will turn into a Land Rover.

If you are smarter, you can seek capital financing for your project to reduce your risks.

"Secret Superstar" only costs 1.5 billion, and even 2 billion may not be given. The proceeds from the release are a lot of money. Besides, there is no shortage of money for the time being, and it is only a one-year cycle.

Not to mention anything else, with the 2 billion box office of "Interstellar", you can get a loan of 20 to 300 million from the bank with the proceeds of "Mysterious Superstar".

Use the two to three hundred million to do something else, whether it's investment or something else, and it's a big income.
