Chapter 101 Dongsheng Do you want to make a movie?
Before Zhou Dongsheng could settle down for a few days, he received an unexpected call from Wu Jing.
"Hey Brother Jing, Happy New Year." I had just missed someone, and they called me right now. Wasn't this just a pillow for me when I fell asleep?
"Hey Dongsheng, Happy New Year to you too. I have something I want to discuss with you." As expected of a well-known straight man, Wu Jing went straight to the point.
Zhou Dongsheng immediately became energetic. Could it be that he has already started soliciting investment now? But if he solicits investment, it should not be Wu Jing's turn to come to him personally.
After all, the two of them have not directly interacted with each other. Even if Wu Jing has not skyrocketed, there is no reason why he would seek investment from himself. After all, there is Principal Wang ahead of him...
"That's it, Dongsheng, do you want to make a movie? I have a role here that is very suitable for you." Wu Jing also said something astonishing.
"What? Ask me to make a movie? How can I still make a movie like this?" Zhou Dongsheng was a little bit dumbfounded, but after thinking about it, he suddenly thought of something.
It is said that when the second part of "Wolf Warrior 2" was being filmed, Wu Jing approached Principal Wang to play the role of the rich second generation, but Principal Wang rejected the role.
And when there was a lack of funds for the filming of "Wolf Warrior 2", Principal Wang also invested a large amount of money, and this investment also allowed Principal Wang to get an excess return.
Now it seems that the script has probably been released, but the role of this "rich second generation" is actually his turn?
Zhou Dongsheng was also a bit unexpected. If possible, Zhou Dongsheng wouldn't mind showing up in the movie and playing a cameo role. After all, it's quite fun, right?
However, "Wolf Warrior 2" is going to be filmed in Africa, which requires a lot of hardships. This alone is enough to make Zhou Dongsheng's interest disappear.
Are you kidding me? I haven’t started to enjoy my life yet. What if I end up in Africa?
"I'm not busy thinking about movie scripts recently. It's quite interesting to have a rich second-generation character. I asked Principal Wang, and Principal Wang recommended you..."
Sure enough, Principal Wang was still the first choice, and as a "spare tire", he probably thought of himself because he left some impression on Director Wu after the last meeting.
"Thank you Brother Jing for your kindness. Let's forget about making a movie. But if you are short of investment for your movie, you can give me priority. Funding is definitely not a problem."
Although this role can make a big splash, even a cameo is enough to earn him the title of "supporting actor with a box office of 5 billion".
However, the method of shooting in Africa was too hard-core. Zhou Dongsheng could only say that he couldn't bear it anymore and it was more comfortable to just lie down and make money.
"Why don't you consider it? With your appearance, it would be a pity not to develop into the entertainment industry..." Director Wu was also rarely enthusiastic.
"Forget it, why don't we talk about Brother Jing's investment in his next movie..." Zhou Dongsheng was also particularly enthusiastic.
After all, we know that this is a gold mine and it is impossible to monopolize it, but if we can dig out an extra shovel, no one will take too much money.
"It's not that fast. I'm not very satisfied with the script now. I don't know when the filming will actually start. Are you so optimistic about me?" Director Wu also asked jokingly.
"Slow work leads to careful work. I admire Brother Jing's spirit of being able to sharpen a sword in seven years. This spirit alone is worth my investment." Zhou Dongsheng flattered him again.
This flattery also struck a chord in Wu Jing's heart. Unexpectedly, he didn't find the role, but instead got a prospective investor?
"Do you really want to be an investor? There are no other conditions, such as playing a role..." Wu Jing asked tentatively.
"Since I appreciate Brother Jing's spirit, I have always believed in the principle that professional matters should be left to professionals, and laymen should not point fingers." Zhou Dongsheng also said with confidence.
This sentence is so accurate, and it touches on Wu Jing's pain point. If investors are so easy to talk to, why would he need to mortgage his house?
"Okay, what Dongsheng said is good! If I need investment at that time, I will definitely contact you first, but making a movie will cost a lot of money..." Wu Jing worriedly tested Zhou Dongsheng's financial resources.
After all, being easy to talk to is one thing, but if you don’t have money, isn’t it all in vain?
"I can still get tens of millions. If Brother Jing needs it, it's not a problem to squeeze in 100 million. When the time comes, Brother Jing will just ask."
Zhou Dongsheng also rarely acted arrogantly. Although he doesn't have that much money in his pocket now, he does have it in the stock market.
"Wolf Warrior 2" won't be released until 2017. It is conservatively estimated that if it starts shooting earlier, it will not be until the end of 2015 or 2016.
By then, I would have long since escaped from this epic stock market market. Investing 100 million wouldn't be considered a big deal.
What's more, even if Wu Jing invests 100 million in his next movie, he can still get a return of more than 1 billion. If this kind of good thing goes beyond the village of the stock market, there will be few stores.
This sentence also shocked Wu Jing a little, and his tone was quite serious, but since he could chat and laugh with Principal Wang, he was probably a wealthy man.
Although he is just a fledgling director, Wu Jing also knows how valuable investors are. Although there is no written word on it yet, it is always good to make good friends.
"I'll just keep this in mind, but don't forget to talk to you when the time comes!" Wu Jing said with a smile.
"No problem, if Brother Jing is worried, we can sign the contract now!" Zhou Dongsheng said in an especially open tone.
After all, in Zhou Dongsheng's view, you may make a small profit, but I will never lose!
"The movie hasn't been finalized yet, so why should I sign a contract with you? But your words are enough!" Wu Jing also burst out laughing, feeling that Zhou Dongsheng's open-minded personality was particularly to his liking.
It's much more interesting than those people who talk in roundabout ways and go round and round. If it was just a casual encounter before, then now they can be considered friends.
After all, for men, friendship is sometimes so simple. If you talk to each other and get along well, you can still be brothers even if you have only met a few times.
And people who don't get along, even if they have been together for a few years, are just unfamiliar with each other and pretending to be familiar.
After chatting for a few more words, he hung up the phone. Zhou Dongsheng was also satisfied. With his way of speaking that suited his liking, he could barely squeeze into half of the train.
The remaining half, of course, has to be written down in black and white, but when it comes to this, there is no reason why I can't squeeze in.
After all, I am so determined because I know that this investment will definitely not make a loss and will make a lot of money.
For other investors, no matter how optimistic they are about Wu Jing, don’t they also have to weigh the risks?
This information difference alone was enough for Zhou Dongsheng to seize the initiative and take a bite of meat first.
And for such a good project, Zhou Dongsheng doesn't plan to live alone. He can also inform Principal Wang and others when the time comes.
As for whether to invest or not, that is their business. After all, when it comes to investing, you are responsible for your profits and losses.

PS: It’s better to focus on your career. This is the first time I’m writing a book. The plot is indeed quite confusing, but it’s still quite interesting. I’ve accidentally written a hundred chapters. Keep up the good work~
