Pu Jie looked at the WeChat message from Zhu Yinyin on his phone and felt a little confused.
"Huh? Zhu Yinyin? Why did she suddenly invite me to dinner?"
The two haven't contacted each other for a long time.
We haven't seen each other since Zhu Yinyin went to the crew to take a role after graduation.
I know some bits and pieces of information, and they all came from Jiang Yuhan.
Last time, when Jiang Yuhan was taking a break, she told Pu Jie that Zhu Yinyin had signed a contract with Yang Mimi's studio and became one of their artists.
And yesterday, Pu Jie just met Yang Mimi.
Both.
While Pu Jie was deep in thought, the man across the coffee table said, "Is there something wrong with Pu Jie?"
Pu Jie shook his head slightly: "It's a small matter, Director Wen, let's continue talking about the story of "The Ring"."
Pu Jie casually replied "Yes" and continued chatting with Director Wen Qiang.
Anyway, you won’t suffer any loss if you just take a look.
night.
Pu Jie saw Zhu Yinyin who was more mature and attractive, blooming like a flower.
She raised her head and winked with her left eye: "You're here."
Just like in the classroom back then, Pu Jie's heart moved slightly.
The feeling I had seen in a movie in my previous life came back.
the next morning.
Pu Jie woke up from bed.
Not wearing any hair
The person next to me has already gotten up.
Pu Jie got up and tidied up a little before getting ready to go to the company.
"I bought you Hong Kong-style soup dumplings. Can you try them?"
"good."
Han Ruyan went to buy breakfast in the morning.
Pu Jie got into the car and ate the breakfast Han Ruyan put on the back seat while thinking about last night's meeting.
Zhu Yinyin seemed to have been wanting to say something, but in the end she didn't say it.
After reminiscing about old times and saying a few words to take good care of each other, they parted ways.
This made Pu Jie a little confused.
Could it be that the appointment to meet him was just to reminisce about old times?
Can't figure it out.
Pu Jie shook his head and simply stopped thinking about it. If something really happened, it would always be revealed, and he didn't want to explore anything.
It's not impossible to reveal things casually, but you have to wait for her to take the initiative.
If a woman like Zhu Yinyin, who is such a proactive and generous person, really wants something from him, she won't hide it.
In the past two days, I have dealt with various things a little bit.
Now, Pujie needs to do something big.
1 hour later.
Duoyu Company's large force sets off.
Mr. Pu, Qi Fei, Dachun, Zhang Yang, Xiaoxing, Meng Xingkong and others, as well as more than 20 people from the finance department and legal advisers, went to the Science and Technology Park located on the North Fourth Ring Road in Kyoto.
"Today, buy a house! Let's go!"
Mr. Pu is in high spirits!
Just like at the beginning of every cycle, I feel like there is no money that I can’t lose!
In this cycle, Mr. Pu still implements one goal: losing money!
Becoming the richest man from a loss starts with buying a house!
Science and Technology Park Key Account Signing Room.
The legal counsel and finance of the real estate company and Duoyu Company are checking the terms and amounts of both parties.
Today, the 12-story "H"-shaped building directly opposite the gate of the Science and Technology Innovation Park will be included in the assets of Duoyu Company!
Duoyu, a new Internet company that spans multiple fields, will have a unified office location.
Bad news: You no longer have to pay millions in rent to Hengtai Building every month!
Good news: It can be directly changed to a monthly loan repayment of 30 million!
Mr. Pu feels that he is better than Lawyer Zhang Wei.
After going through all the necessary procedures, Duoyu Company took over the building with a down payment of 100 million and a loan of 350 million repaid in 12 installments.
Including interest and bank preferential policies, the monthly loan repayment is 31.4 million yuan.
This is good news for Mr. Pu.
'With monthly fixed expenses, it can significantly weaken the company's profitability. If we can find such a big project again, this cycle will be stable.'
According to Assistant Qi’s budget, the current Duoyu Company’s monthly net profit is around 60 million.
The loan is 31.4 million yuan, and there is about 30 million yuan that needs to be spent.
The company still has 90 million on hand, and Mr. Pu has to find a way to spend it.
"The pressure of losing money is getting bigger and bigger."
Duoyu Company's money is like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger, especially Mr. Pu's reckless "short-sighted" strategy before, which allowed Duoyu Company to gain a lot of reputation and future, leading to more and more profits today.
"It seems that it's really time for "Shanghai Fortress" to be released!"
This movie is considered a miracle in the history of Chinese films in Pu Jie's previous life!
It refreshed people's understanding of science fiction films, refreshed people's understanding of high investment, and refreshed people's understanding of how much an actor can love beauty.
The investment was 360 million, the total box office was 120 million, the investor recovered 40 million, and the net loss was 320 million.
And starting from this film, the era of popular stars in mainland movies has come to an end. Capitalists have finally woken up and realized that popular stars cannot make them money, only good movies can.
So, this movie is of great significance!
His ability to single-handedly bury young actors, wake up ordinary people except for fans in the fandom, and alert the world can be called contemporary Lu Xun!
The most important thing is that you can really lose money!
How could Pu Jie let such a huge masterpiece go?
As long as he can replicate the successful failure experience of this movie in his previous life, which resulted in a loss of 320 million, he will basically win this cycle!
Over at the Science and Technology Innovation Park, Assistant Qi and the others are still busy with the matter of buying a property.
Xiaoxing, Zhang Yang, Dachun, and Lao Meng were all very excited. They were happier to see the company take off than they were to get promoted themselves!
Mr. Pu shook his head. He had already signed all the things he was supposed to sign, and went downstairs alone to get some fresh air.
"Except for Dachun and Zhang Yang, all of these people need to be cured."
However, Mr. Pu has not thought of a very suitable way to reasonably bypass the system and sanction these struggling people.
We need to carefully consider countermeasures.
"I won't cause trouble for you until I start working on the "Shanghai Fortress" movie."
Compensation is important.
Mr. Pu walked in a park full of companies and found a newly opened cafe and sat in it.
"Bring me a cappuccino."
Mr. Pu sat down and continued to think about investing in movies.
"Currently, the biggest problem is that I haven't watched "Shanghai Fortress."
That's right, people like Pu Jie, who have to wait in advance for Douban to release the score before going to the cinema, would support the premiere of such a bad movie?
One day after its release, Douban scored 3.4.
But any normal person, after learning about this situation, would not look at it again.
Everyone knows who contributed to the subsequent box office.
Without those fans, the box office of 20 million, let alone 120 million, would be considered smoke from the graves of ancestors.
Pu Jie has only seen sporadic videos and trailers of complaints about this movie online.
Have not watched the entire movie
Of course, this does not prevent Pu Jie from joining others in criticizing this movie in his previous life.
"But! Fortunately, I remembered the points that made this movie a hit. As long as I follow these points, I can recreate it in this world. This has been proven many times in this world."
Even if it is a movie that Pu Jie has watched many times, if he writes the script, it will not be the same as the original work, but he knows the key points and plot, and if he optimizes it in the end, it can be successfully filmed.
"That Man Came From Earth", "Resident Evil 1" will all work, and "Shanghai Fortress" will definitely work too.
"First of all, the male lead must find a young and fresh guy! And the kind who can't mess up his hair even in a fight;"
"Secondly, the promotion is hard science fiction, but it must focus on emotional drama, so that audiences who like to watch science fiction will eat shit;"
"Finally, invest money to do sci-fi special effects, but it must be done badly. Not to mention 5 cents for special effects, the most you can give is 1 yuan! That's not right. In this way, you won't be able to spend so much money. It's better to spend the money, but
If it looks cheap, then it’s right!”
"As long as these three points are met, it will definitely be another Shanghai Fortress!"
Pu Jie is quite confident.
Although he has never seen the movie, he knows a lot about the important points that people have criticized about the movie.
After all, he also followed the trend for a while.
Have you never seen a pig running or eaten pork?
In the cafe, Pu Jie recorded all the ideas he came up with and waited to start running them when he returned.
“Who will direct and write?”
"Zhang Yang? Dachun? Or Yuan Hua?"
These brothers are all poor at screenwriting, especially after they came to work at Duoyu Company. Dachun and Zhang Yang basically didn't study hard. Yuan Hua was a little better, but his strength was limited.
Theoretically speaking, all three brothers can make big bad movies.
But in reality, there are many problems.
The first is Zhang Yang. The last movie "For Fans" stabbed him hard in the back. The script of the original mentally retarded version was actually changed and turned into a damn masterpiece! Who can I ask to explain this?
As for Dachun, he listened too much to the suggestions of his subordinates! Just look at the animation "Ordinary People Cultivation to Immortality" this time, it was because he let it go and didn't design it himself, which ended up making money.
Finally, Yuan Hua and Pu Jie are not sure how much people will change after ups and downs. What if the legendary black power is useful? Yuan Hua realized the great enlightenment, and finally made a movie, which made him a god, and he was waiting to die.
Well, this is not safe either.
It is better to wait for Yuan Hua to make his Duoyumanke journal and see how good it is. If it can really be done well, then entrust it with an important task.
"But if you hire a screenwriter from outside, you don't even know the basics. Who knows which screenwriter will become a god and which screenwriter will continue to work hard? You really can't say this stuff."
Pu Jie was stabbed in the back too many times, and he always felt like someone was trying to harm him and make a lot of money for the company.
After struggling all afternoon, Pu Jie finally called Zhang Yang over.
"Zhang Yang, can I trust you?"
Zhang Yang didn't say anything, he just patted his chest and promised: "Brother Jie, don't worry about our relationship as brothers. With my help, my sisters-in-law will never find each other!"
Pu Jie: "."
"Ahem! It's not this matter, it's the company, and I have an extremely important task to give you! Leave it to your production department!"
Zhang Yang heard this, his hands shook, and then he said excitedly: "Really? Brother Jie, really! I cried to death! Our production department has not filmed for more than half a year, and we are just waiting for your order to directly
Take off on the spot! What do you want to take a picture of?"
Pu Jie: "An epic science fiction film!"
Zhang Yang frowned slightly: "I'm not good at this. Originally, I planned to write the screenplay myself. If it's a science fiction film, let's find a professional screenwriter from outside? I remember that the director knows several big names in the industry. I will do it tomorrow
Just get in touch!”
Pu Jie was overjoyed: "It's good if you're not good at it!"
Zhang Yang: "Ah?"
Pu Jie continued: "Well, what I mean is that it doesn't matter if you are not good at it. Doesn't it mean you are good at making a movie? People always have to make progress, and they cannot stay in their comfort zone and not come out. Look at Dachun,
After finishing screenwriting, making games, finishing games and making animations, which one failed? Hmm? How can you be worse than him?"
When Zhang Yang heard this, he could still bear it: "That must be impossible! If Dachun can do it, I can do it too!"
But then he felt a little guilty: "But Brother Jie, if you invest in a science fiction film, it should be a lot of money, right? If we lose the money, it will have a great impact on the company, or else we should be safe this time.
I will find a screenwriter for you from outside, and then I will follow you to learn a film first."
Pu Jie patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder: "There is no need to discuss this matter anymore. I have already decided that you will be the one to write the script! Is it important whether you pay or not? Not important! It's mine to witness the unlimited potential in your body being activated.
pleasure!"
Zhang Yang clenched his fists and straightened his body: "Okay! Since you said so, Brother Jie, I will try my best!"
"By the way, Brother Jie, how much does it cost to invest in our new movie?"
Pu Jie raised the corner of his mouth: "360 million."
"Clang!"
Zhang Yang fell onto the chair and fell to the ground with the chair.
After 3 days, the procedures for purchasing the property were completed.
November 11th.
On Double Eleven, Duoyu Company obtained its own group office building.
Assistant Qi, who had been prepared long ago, raised the four large steel frame characters along the H-shaped building:
Multifish Group.
The unified name of the company was officially changed from Duoyu Company to Duoyu Group.
A few months ago, Mr. Pu arranged for his assistants to find someone to design this 12-story building.
Now that the design drawing has been delivered, it is planned completely in accordance with Mr. Pu's intention.
The internal space is designed to support many professional disciplines such as ergonomics, fishing techniques, and advanced placement studies.
After Mr. Pu's design, as long as you dare to enter, you will soon get lost in this happy headquarters building and no longer want to work.
Standing downstairs, watching the construction team burning incense, Mr. Pu showed a wise smile: "I don't believe you can't handle this?"
"start!"
Following Mr. Pu’s order, the construction teams came in one after another!
The construction period this time was strictly controlled by Assistant Qi to 2 months.
In order to allow the employees to move into the Moyu Building or Buduoyu Building that he carefully prepared for them as quickly as possible, Mr. Pu spent a lot of money to choose ultra-low-pollution environmentally friendly materials, and all of them can be moved in one month after the construction is completed.
Mr. Pu also took the opportunity to spend more money.
Originally, the company had 190 million on its books. It paid 100 million down to buy a house, renovated the 12-story building and spent the remaining 90 million. The company's assets were immediately cleared!
“Perfect start!”
Next, Mr. Pu doesn’t need to take too many actions. It’s OK to focus all his energy on how to make "Shanghai Fortress" and update "Lord of Fools".
"How can I lose this heavyweight money-losing blockbuster where Tianhu starts with me?"
"The whole court is full of traitors, who can stop me?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Mr. Pu let out a long-lost hearty laugh.
Assistant Qi next to him looked at Mr. Pu thoughtfully.
'It seems that if you want Mr. Pu to be happy, you must at least pay a down payment for a building, that is, you must have a profit of 100 million. When you go back, quickly inform all the managers of this news, so that they will know better in the future.'
