Although the final box office of this movie did not exceed the original version in Wei Tao's memory, he was very satisfied. After all, this was the first film of 2010, and the words "over one billion" were enough to make Wei Tao such an abnormal person. A film investor who has a place in the film and television industry.
The most popular ones are Xu Zheng, Xu Sanduo and Huang Bo. The state presented by these three people and the complementary feeling of the three people are not just a simple matching of plot and characters. Many discerning people can see that the styles of these three people are complementary. Yes, Xu Zheng is an 'unlucky decent man', and Xu Sanduo is a 'mischievous fool'. As for Huang Bo, you can say that he is a 'bad guy', or you can identify him as a joker. The joker is between these two people. In the meantime, if you throw him into any set plot, the settings of the two will not be afraid of repetition and fixation, and will have different effects.
Because there is no shortage of funds, there is no need for Huang Bo’s box office as investment, and there will be no dissatisfaction with Xu Sanduo’s salary after participating in the role at a friendly price. At the celebration banquet, Wei Tao, three people, Xu Zheng, 6 million, Huang Bo and Xu Sanduo received 5 million each, a big red envelope each. Xu Zhengduo's 1 million was a red envelope for the director's status.
There is no distinction between the three of them. Even if they have some quarrels in their hearts, they dare not show it in front of Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei can still hold a bowl of water evenly and it is quite interesting. They are satisfied and drink the wine at the celebration banquet. Can't taste the drink.
After the celebration banquet, the three of them served as hosts. Xu Sanduo entertained Wei Tao at his home in Yanjing with the most ordinary but most sincere family dinner.
I have been in Yanjing for two days and am so busy that my feet have not touched the floor. If I want to have a peaceful sleep, I have to turn off my mobile phone and throw my work phone to Lu Jiang. Only then can I get some peace of mind after eleven o'clock in the evening. Otherwise, even if Lu Jiang is blocking me in front. Then, he had to knock on Wei Tao's door and hand in some phone calls, either from people he couldn't refuse or offend, or from friends with whom he was close.
His status as an investor in the film and television industry was nothing more than a child's play. What really caused Wei Tao's current status to undergo an inexplicable change was this travel cooperation. He went off the rails. After most people thought that the seminar in Songjiang was nonsense, When everyone was laughing at him, he didn't explain a word after such a long time. It was Running Man who silenced everyone in the middle, and now it is "囧囧" that has completely silenced those voices.
There were no great ideas or good channels, no capital communication, and no overwhelming big moves. This bridge was completed simply by using movies and variety shows. Using the huge value generated by the tourism industry as a bargaining chip, there is no need to consider whether the value is that high. Everyone knows that the tourism industry has huge prospects and benefits.
Even if you don't engage in the routine of drying up the lake and harvesting leeks, you can still make money by selling corresponding specialties, but it's not as ruthless as a shopping store, but as long as there are enough tourists, you can still make good profits.
A large number of tourists and a large number of tour groups. Currently, the tour groups sent to Taiguo have started to queue up due to flight problems. Even if they only need to wait for three days, the tourism bridge between the two countries has been opened. Communicate what is needed.
Taiguo has also produced high-quality tour groups for traveling to China. The prices are not very high, but the promises are just like the ones we have there. Travel agencies with big domestic brands will sign the contracts, and they can send group leaders and tour guides. Come here, we will also meet the tour guide, and there is no compulsory consumption in the whole journey. In fact, we can promise that there will be no shopping stores in the whole journey. However, some tourists there really just want to visit the shopping stores. As for whether to buy or not, then It's their freedom.
More attention has fallen on Wei Tao, and that's not all. The development of virtual currencies has shown a trend of prosperity and large-scale network coverage. Although it is still a very sporadic market, those who are well-informed have started to make arrangements in advance. , like all new things, there will be a small buffer period before it breaks out. Ordinary people are not aware of this buffer period. It will not be until the market is almost ready that the news of the blockade will be released to allow the general public to participate.
The trend of becoming a currency has already begun, and it has begun to circulate in the market, and finally has a recognized price. It is not high, but it has become a currency that is not in the public circulation in the true sense.
It doesn't matter if the price is not high. The price proves that this thing is not a plaything. Wei Tao's confidence and attitude towards virtual currency and the strategic vision he showed at this moment have gained him some attention from the top.
Attention is of no practical value, but at a certain level, he is considered a half-public figure. He still has some official status, has the vest of a philanthropist, and performs well in charity every year. This is equal to anyone who wants to It is unrealistic to use some small means against him.
You must ensure that these small methods are well-founded, otherwise under the attention of the upper class, Wei Tao is not a person who can disappear or go bankrupt anytime, anywhere. Even if something happens to him one day, he must withstand any test in an all-round way. There cannot be any chain of evidence and some despicable means mixed in it.
If the Wei Tao Building is about to collapse, news will definitely reach the top. The higher-ups have paid attention to Wei Tao and know who he is. If something happens to him, at least someone will report it and take a look. Once this happens, There are some illegal methods that cannot be brought to light, and we will not turn a blind eye to them.
During the period after the New Year, Renren has also made a lot of moves. Seeing that all the processes have been completed and all the difficulties and ups and downs have been overcome, they are just waiting to ring the bell. And on the market, Renren The positioning of the website has also come out, with good response and high recognition. Once listed for financing, there will be a very good situation.
】
SoftBank does not mind any kind of hype, including the hype of Wei Tao as a shareholder of Renren. As he has become very popular and famous recently, for the sake of business, there is no personal grudge. SoftBank pushed the media to start hyping Wei Tao. As a capable investor like him, he has always been optimistic about our project. From the original 'Xiaonei.com' to the current 'Renren.com', we will be committed to building...
Wei Tao has the ability to build bridges at corresponding levels.
To the general public, the first Chinese-language film to exceed one billion in box office was fully invested by Wei Tao.
You can just follow the projects that Wei Tao likes, and you should have more confidence in him.
Wei Tao had nothing to do about it. He didn't stand up to support it, even if it was due to his personality. After all, with a 13% shareholding ratio and 'Renren.com' financing and listing, he should stand up and do more.
The car stopped in front of Xu Sanduo's villa. Wei Tao hung up the phone. There were invitations and interviews. They were all friends asking for friends. He couldn't lose face, otherwise he wouldn't have any time for himself. He never wanted to become a completely public figure. , it is very likely to directly become an Internet celebrity.
Looking at the villa in front of him, Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh. Xu Sanduo, who came from a poor family, bought a house and land as soon as he got rich.
As soon as his car stopped, the people inside knew it. All the main people came out to greet them, Xu Sanduo and his wife, Bald Xu and his wife, and Huang Bo and his wife. Regardless of their previous fame, this time they brought more than just... Economic benefits, as well as a strong mark in the history of Chinese film, and more importantly, unlimited imagination in the future.
Xu Zheng wants to make a movie, Huang Bo also wants to be a director, Xu Sanduo is also tempted, and capital, no matter how people in the industry evaluate it, will ultimately bow before capital.
The existence of Mr. Wei eliminates the need for them to painstakingly manage other capital, keep a low profile, and pay some price against their will. They both know clearly that as long as this line is maintained, their careers will be successful. There will be a solid backing.
It should be said that in Wei Tao, except for Huang Bo's wife, Xu Sanduo's wife is not an amateur, but he is not interested in other people's lives and will not do anything more interfering. However, when he saw Xu Sanduo's agent When I was in the house, I looked at that face that even as a melon-eating person felt that I deserved a beating. I felt very special. I wasn't angry or a melon-eating person, but it was a bit awkward.
Xu Sanduo is a smart man. When things happen in the future, he can be regarded as the only one in the entire entertainment industry who handles similar matters the most appropriately. He gets the greatest benefit and the other party receives the greatest punishment. It is definitely a textbook example. revenge.
Xiao Song is very attentive and behaves very humblely. He has just become Xu Sanduo's agent. He is already in the stage of performance and gaining greater trust from Xu Sanduo. Today, as a staff member of the host, he is still facing Mr. Wei like this. As a big shot, he took the initiative to stay and help, and took the initiative to work in the kitchen with the nanny and aunt, making arrangements inside.
Xu Zheng and Huang Bo were both calm. At most they nodded and smiled and did not pay much attention to him. Wei Tao faced Xu Sanduo's introduction and did not say anything, just nodded.
No one thought there was anything wrong with his attitude. On the contrary, everyone would find it strange if he showed interest in Xiao Song.
Wei Tao didn't pay special attention to him, but he paid attention in his heart. Sometimes he would unconsciously pay attention to him out of the corner of his eyes. Before dinner, he was sitting on the sofa, and Xu Sanduo presented others to him as if he were offering a treasure. His expensive cigars, watching him smoke them, was full of incongruity.
Through the decorative furnishings, Wei Tao could see the restaurant from where he was sitting. When the restaurant entered the kitchen, he was sure to see a fleeting scene, which was when the hostess went to the kitchen to help serve the dishes. , Xiao Song, who was busy inside, made a very secretive little move when the two of them passed each other, and slapped the hostess's buttocks with his palm.
wipe! Have you hooked up so early?
So bold?
It can be seen that the courage of these two people has reached a very presumptuous level. They can understand the psychology of the other party doing this. It is exciting. It is in such an environment that there are some small actions that cross the line to get huge results. inner satisfaction.
Looking at Xu Sanduo smoking a cigar, it felt like his head was filled with green light.
Wei Tao himself didn't know what kind of mentality he had. Was he a spectator mentality of exploring some secrets? Or just meddling out of boredom? Once we do something superficial and deep, we are no longer human inside and out. Considering my current stage of newlyweds, I guess even if I say it, Xu Sanduo won’t believe it. He doesn’t dare to offend me, but he will definitely resist or even blame me in his heart. Resenting the nonsense of a big boss.
The power of pillow talk is always more lethal than the good advice of any friend or partner.
Wei Tao drooped his eyelids as if he was watching the excitement. In the end, I chose not to 'speak out' and was deceived. It was also a few good years later. With Xu Sanduo's inferiority complex and the sense of accomplishment that his wife's existence brought to him at this moment, I guess who would say it at this moment? If her wife is not good, she may directly become his enemy.
He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, nor did he want to do anything. Only the parties involved were qualified to evaluate and define whether something was right or wrong, and outsiders were just spectators. It was a family banquet where everyone was enjoying themselves. Unexpectedly, under the stimulation of alcohol, or perhaps because of a drunken gaffe, Xiao Song joined the table and became a drinking companion after everyone had finished drinking. One member.
Perhaps with the support of the boss lady, he, as an agent, has a good say in the team, or maybe it was the instruction of the 'boss', who said something that was neither salty nor indifferent but definitely not suitable for them to say: " Mr. Wei made 300 million this time..."
It is taboo, and it is a big taboo, for an actor to get paid to act. After the box office hit, Wei Tao received a big red envelope of five million yuan by himself. It makes sense on any level. At the beginning of filming, it was Huang Bo After all, no one had confidence at the time, and the salary offered by Mr. Wei was not low, so he suggested that we should take no salary or pay less, and treat it as an investment, so that the financial pressure on the filming would be less.
Although we all know that Mr. Wei is not short of money, and Huang Bo does have good intentions, we are not sure ourselves. We cannot let Mr. Wei pay too much, so we should bear the risk together.
It must have been good intentions at the time, and it was also their mutual wish. It was considered an investment. If this film didn't work, then we would have a good relationship with Wei, and we would still have opportunities to cooperate in the future.
The idea of making a long-term investment, but no one expected that this film felt like it while filming, and they were confident enough. Facts have proved that after its release, with the double blessing of publicity and schedule, it became a new trend in Chinese-language films. Benchmark.
Wei Tao is sole proprietor, and the distribution is handled by others. Everyone in the industry will be jealous. This time, it has made 200 to 300 million yuan at the box office alone. Is there any follow-up?
It is inevitable that some people will have some different ideas, and there will inevitably be some people who try to sow discord. When Huang Bo proposed that the film be paid for shares, it was spread out for some reason. Until now, some strange words have inevitably appeared. For example, how much money can you make from investing? For example, how much money can you make by investing and playing the same series in the future?
Among these people, similar topics are taboo and no one will mention them. Even if they have such and such thoughts in their hearts, on the surface, Mr. Wei has done his best. They dare not express any thoughts and even deliberately avoid them. When talking about this matter, it turned out that Xiao Song's words were related.
Wei Tao originally disliked him. Even if he remembered what happened a few years later, the media reports may not be 100% true. But looking at this guy's appearance and the feeling between his eyes and eyebrows, you have to admit that compared to Xu Sanduo, Anyone could sympathize with Xu Sanduo and scold this guy. At this moment, for a small manager, Xu Sanduo praised you for being on the table, and you, the 'boss lady', deliberately let you come on stage. If you say something wrong at this time, it means that the relationship between your boss and Mr. Wei before. The child will let you split it apart, and all the previous accumulation will be useless.
Wei Tao looked at him. Although everyone at the scene was drinking, everyone sobered up as soon as these words came out. Wei Tao leaned back in his chair and stared at his face. The hostess woke up with a start and stared at him hurriedly. Xiao Song: "You drank too much. Apologize to Mr. Wei quickly."
Xiao Song suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and beads of sweat gathered on his forehead. His face turned pale, and he quickly stood up. He couldn't stand still, and tried to explain: "Mr. Wei, I'm not... I..."
Snapped!
He raised his hand, slapped his cheeks on both sides, and said, "Mr. Wei, I'm sorry, I drank too much."
Lower your head, bow, don't dare to move.
Wei Tao's attitude determined that Xu Zheng and Huang Bo couldn't be the peacemakers. He sat back in his chair with a calm expression. The more this happened, the stronger the sense of oppression. Even if the two wanted to be peacemakers, I didn’t dare to speak at this time.
Xu Sanduo also quickly stood up, biting his back molars, and pinched his thigh with his hands just now to dispel the dizzy feeling caused by drunkenness. He stood up without following his feet and stepped hard with his heel. The cheeks that were originally red from drinking turned pale.
Excluding all the rumors about Mr. Wei, we cannot offend him just because of his "capital". Even if he is now popular because of the movie "Thailand", he does have an inflated sense of self about his status and status. But this self-awareness must not be applied to Mr. Wei. After a day of ungrateful denunciation and criticism from the media and Internet trolls, once the persona collapses and the image is gone, the circle will not give you any opportunities, and it is gone. In a year or two, you will become a shooting star, leaving only a name in this circle that is occasionally mentioned but cannot be remembered.
"Mr. Wei, he is ignorant. You, sir, have a lot of wisdom and understanding." No one who knows Xu Sanduo in real life really regards him as a fool. It doesn't matter whether his honesty is true or false. It's true that your brain is definitely enough.
He didn't know what to say. At this time, the hostess stood up and walked to Wei Tao: "Mr. Wei, Manager Song just wants to congratulate Mr. Wei..."
The inherent advantage of women is that most men will not direct it at women in many awkward situations or when anger has already broken out. From this, it can be seen that the hostess’s IQ and EQ are also at a high level. above.
Making amends and apologizing, toasting and punishing oneself, showing one's weakness and showing loyalty to one's husband...
When her first sentence was not rejected, that is to say, Wei Tao allowed her to say the first and second sentences, and her subsequent actions were not wrong, at least she was able to perform well on the scene.
It's just that I can't drink this wine anymore.
Wei Tao walked to the door and glanced at Xu Sanduo, who had a low eyebrow and a pitiful look. I have to say that when this guy shows his little expression, you are really embarrassed to say anything about him. He is still the character of Xu Sanduo. No wonder In "Soldier Assault", squad leader Shi Jin saw him several times and passively entered into the process of using his military career to save a coward.
[Forget it, help him. 】
"If there are more than three, disaster will come from the mouth."
After getting in the car, Wei Tao knew that the other party would definitely understand what he meant. When the car started, he couldn't help but sigh, "I am such a good person."
ps: I had some urgent matters to deal with at home yesterday. It was late at night when I came back. I don’t know how to use apps on my mobile phone or ask for leave. Thank you for your understanding.
