Chapter 387 - 387: The risk

“Hahahaha, CEO Li, you have good taste. Then we have to have a good talk. We have already invested 6,500,000 dollars in the early stage of the movie, and now the movie has only been shot to 30% of the 20% and there is still 30% of the 10% of the progress to be shot; After filming, there was still post-production.

This is especially true for post-production, where a part of the production is for special effects. The cost of these special effects is even higher than the cost of hiring actors, and we might even overspend again. Our previous investors were unwilling to add more because it was too risky. So, CEO Li, are you really going to invest in us?”

Chen Baichuan directly told him the cost of the post-production special effects. After all, this was the first movie in the history of Chinese movies to have more than 70% of the special effects.

He even brought up the biggest drawback of the movie: “Because this is the first sci-fi mystery tomb raider blockbuster in the country, it is very likely that it will be difficult to pass the domestic review. It is also very likely that the domestic audience will not accept this kind of presentation.

Therefore, even if it passed the review, the box office sales might still fall because of the theme!”

It wasn’t that Chen Baichuan had no confidence in his movie, but after the recent shortage of funds, someone had sent a message to Chen Baichuan saying that it might be a little difficult for this movie to pass the review. After all, the review of movies in the country had always been very strict.

On the other hand, there were indeed many media outlets on the Internet and entertainment newspapers that were downplaying the movie. Even if some fans expressed their support for the movie, most people in the media and the film industry were not optimistic.

It was precisely because of these rumors that investors were unwilling to fork out more money. After all, there was an 80% chance that this movie would not pass the review. Even if it did, the chances of it failing were high. So what if an actor had the ability to use it?

Nowadays, it was popular to look like celebrities like beautiful teenagers from Japan Korea. Huang Bo and Chen Yiming were too ugly, and they were not particularly popular celebrities. It was difficult to make them popular.

Chen Baichuan had said so much mainly because he felt that Li Muyao was a young lady who was not deeply involved in the entertainment industry. She had blindly invested 30 million yuan just because she liked the book Grave Robber. That was not a small amount.

He, Chen Baichuan, was a director with a conscience. He couldn’t do something that he knew was the worst possible outcome, yet he still wanted to cheat the young lady.

Of course, it was also because of Chen Baichuan’s honesty that Assistant Wu and Uncle An’s faces turned pale. After all, Chen Baichuan was telling the truth. Li Muyao, a newcomer who invested in the film industry, didn’t understand this, but they did.

Even Chu Ranran was a little conflicted after hearing this.

Why don’t we continue searching?

Although I won’t be investing in the tomb raiding, I think Sister Yao should still consider it. With Director Chen’s reputation, there would definitely be no shortage of funds. I knew it. When Chen Jiao and Chu Ranran heard that

Director Chen was short of funds, they didn’t say that they wanted to invest. They even snickered.”

If she hadn’t heard Chen Baichuan say this, Chu Ranran wouldn’t have thought of what she had heard from Chu Lili and her daughter. Now that she had connected all of them together, she had an answer.

After all, everyone in the entertainment industry knew that the former actress and current boss lady of Chu Jixing had been investing in the film and television industry. She was also jokingly called ‘Sponsor Mom’.

Li Muyao was very grateful to Director Chen Baichuan for being honest with her. Then, when she heard Chu Ranran mention that tomb robbing was a movie script that Chu Lili and Chen Jiao didn’t think highly of, Li Muyao was even more determined to invest in it. After all, she wanted to see if her guess was really accurate.

Li Muyao smiled and nodded.” You don’t have to persuade me. I really like tomb raiding novels. Like all book fans, I hope that the wonderful plots in the novels can be adapted to the big screen.

Moreover, any film school would be formed from nothing.

As the first person to eat the crab, there was a 50% chance that the box office would fail, but there was also a 50% chance that it would explode.

As for the trial. When the movie is done, if Director Chen encounters any problems during the audition, you can contact me. I can think of a way to solve it.”

Li Muyao’s words were a little exaggerated, and everyone present was shocked by her promise.

“Director Chen, I’m willing to invest. Are you willing to accept it?”

30 million wasn’t a lot. Even if she lost, Li Muyao wouldn’t feel too bad. Moreover, Li Muyao had just received a text message from Jiang Shusong, saying that the other two pig farms in Yangcheng would be demolished at the end of the year if nothing unexpected happened.

This was good news for another birthday present!

“Of course I’m willing! Boss Li was indeed as forceful as Old Liu had said. Young people were very aggressive! Thank you for your trust. The 30 million investment can account for 30% of the total tomb raiding.

If CEO Li is not busy, we can discuss the details over lunch. Look, it’s almost lunchtime.”The smile on Chen Baichuan’s face grew even more sincere when Li Muyao decided to invest.

Chen Baichuan asked Li Muyao and the others to wait for him for a while. He went to contact the producer and the legal department for the finale. He also went to talk to the assistant director, Jiang Tao.

Li Muyao and the others took advantage of this time to ask the driver to take out five new tomb-robbing novels from the trunk of the car and give them to Uncle An for signature.

After signing the autograph, seeing that Chen Baichuan had yet to come over, Li Muyao even mentioned a few hidden stories in grave robbing novels that were not explained even after they were completed to Uncle An.

Uncle An seriously gave Li Muyao an answer. After all, the ending of grave robbing was open.

Li Muyao was not satisfied with what she heard, so she said what countless fans were thinking, “Uncle An, why don’t you write some novels for us fans when you’re free?

He answered all the hidden stories that were not explained in the book.

Otherwise, as fans, we would always feel that there was something missing. After reading the book, we would still feel regretful.”

‘ Alright,” Uncle An nodded.” I’ll take some time to write a side story for everyone after the movie is finished. ‘”‘

Li Muyao was such an enthusiastic fan of the novel. She was willing to invest

30 million yuan in the novel because she liked tomb raiding. Uncle An was willing to read another book related to the novel.

After all, for Uncle An, this was the first time he had participated in the adaptation of a novel into a movie. If Grave Robber I produced a good result, the audience liked it, and the box office was good, then Grave Robber Il and Grave Robber Ill would be released one after another…. If it was made into a series of movies, it would not be a problem for it to be released up to five times!
