Chapter 34 I Want to Be the Man Behind Xiao Ma Ge
end of June.
On the overpass, Hei Pi was running forward desperately with a piece of bread in his mouth.
Seeing that he was about to be caught up, he stuffed another piece of bread into his mouth and then threw it out with force.
"Crack!"
Hearing Lin Yicheng's shout, Huang Bo stopped and the other people in the crew also looked over.
Lin Yicheng clapped his hands and said, "I declare that the filming of Crazy Stone has officially finished!"
"Alas!"
The crew howled in agony, and it was finally over.
God knows how this group of people got through this period of time. They were trembling with fear and treading on thin ice, afraid of making mistakes and angering Director Lin.
Fortunately, the difficult days are over.
"Today is the wrap-up party, everyone, eat and drink well, and don't leave until you are drunk!"
"Long live Director Lin!"
"Director Lin, I love you!"
The crew arrived at the hotel they had booked in advance. The food was ready and everyone started eating.
Lin Yicheng sat at the main table, accepting the endless toasts with a smile on his face.
Be kind to everyone, either praising them out loud or encouraging them gently.
Everyone was flattered.
Seeing their reactions, Lin Yicheng sighed.
His reputation as a tyrant on the set is probably going to spread.
But he is obviously a kind and amiable person.
Alas, people in the world don’t understand me.
During the dinner, Lin Yicheng chatted with Huang Bo for a while, and there is a high possibility that the two will cooperate again.
Huang Bo also wanted to make friends with him, and the two of them chatted very lively.
Lin Yicheng did not ignore others. He chatted with Guo Tao and Liu Hua separately. Although they might not cooperate in the future, it was still necessary to leave a good reputation.
Let people know that he was not targeting anyone for what happened that day, and that Director Lin is a very kind person!
In the evening, senior Yao Di came to the room as promised.
The senior student is very diligent and seems to be trying to make up for the courses she missed.
Director Lin had no choice but to teach her again and again.
……
After returning to Beijing, visiting relatives and mentors and handling some company affairs, Lin Yicheng brought Ji Ji and Wang Liming to China Film to carry out post-production at their digital base.
This fee is calculated separately and is taken from the total investment, and is not counted as China Film’s investment.
Since Ji Jie followed the crew throughout the entire process and understood Lin Yicheng's thinking very well, and with the assistance of Wang Liming, it took only a little over three days to produce a 150-minute rough cut.
After a short day's rest, I'll do another fine-cutting, this time to get the final version.
The length is shorter than the original version because Lin Yicheng deleted some unnecessary shots.
For example, when Bao Shihong discovered that the jade had been replaced, Ning Hao gave too many close-up shots, which was too much.
There are also some performances and visits in Luohan Temple, and the quarrel between two security guards.
Lin Yicheng has made some deletions, and these are not the focus and can be glossed over.
He hoped that the audience would remain in a state of nervous excitement, and then when Heipi threw the bread out, they would all let go of this emotion.
This will test Lin Yicheng and Ji Ji's abilities, because if it is not handled properly, it will make people overly excited and cause fatigue.
So the rhythm must be well controlled. It should be tight when it needs to be tight, and the audience should be allowed to slow down when it needs to. But there will always be a thread hanging there.
Therefore, every frame and every second needs to be carefully considered.
Finally, after four days, the final cut was completed. After another day of rest, the opening and ending credits, subtitles, and music were added.
The finished film is exactly 100 minutes long, 6 minutes shorter than the original version.
I said hello to China Film Group and Qingdao Film Group respectively and agreed to go to the cinema together three days later.
After having dinner with Ji Jie and Wang Liming, Lin Yicheng returned to his residence, tidied up a little, and fell asleep.
I didn't wake up until noon the next day.
……
When I arrived at the company, the clerk brought a stack of documents, which were scripts and projects for attracting investment.
Lin Yicheng looked through them one by one.
"The Past with You, Her and It"
What the hell is this name? I read the synopsis and it’s like, what the hell is this?
pass!
"Hello, Red Apple Paradise Under the Meteor" Oh my god, you put three popular youth campus dramas together, you are stitching them together!
No need to read the content, pass!
"A Little Thing Called Secret Love"
Nice name, let's see the content.
Well, the main role is almost entirely focused on the male lead, with all kinds of fantasies and fantasies...
The screenwriter is obviously a veteran bootlicker, pass!
The next offer was for a role in a TV series based on a novel called Erna Assault.
"Erna. Assault"?
Lin Yicheng recalled and realized it was this!
"Soldier Assault" is the most popular drama in the original time and space in 2007, no doubt about it!
Then he looked at the attached information and shook his head.
The investors have already been confirmed and there is no shortage of investment. They just want him to play a supporting role, that is, he has to choose between the roles of Zhang Yi or Da Hei Niu.
That's not necessary.
pass!
Although the drama was popular, it only made Wang Baoqiang famous. Lin Yicheng was unwilling and unable to be a supporting actor for others.
……
In the afternoon, Lin Yicheng met with his investment consultant Sun Rongwen.
Sun Rongwen has been in charge of Lin Yicheng's stock market operations. The job is very simple. Just follow Lin Yicheng's instructions and buy Tencent without thinking.
In other words, it is not convenient to buy and sell stocks now, and Lin Yicheng does not have that much time to do it himself, otherwise there would be no need to find this tool.
As for other stocks recommended by Sun Rongwen, Lin Yicheng ignored them all. What investment consultant can have such good vision?
"I will buy a large amount of Tencent this time, so you should be prepared."
Lin Yicheng didn't say anything more. He was just a tool and there was no need to be polite.
It was almost June 2005, and a stock market crash that Lin Yicheng would remember vividly was about to happen.
When the market plummets, Tencent will definitely be affected, and this is his opportunity to buy at a low price.
"How much money is it approximately?" Sun Rongwen asked.
Lin Yicheng pointed with a finger.
"Ten million? No problem, it can be done in a few trading days." Sun Rongwen answered easily.
"Add another zero."
"One hundred million?" Sun Rongwen's eyes widened. For the first time, he realized the financial strength of the client's father.
"Is there a problem?"
"No, no problem. I will try to complete the operation in about three months." Sun Rongwen swallowed hard, quickly calculating in his mind how much commission he could get.
"It doesn't matter if the battle line is prolonged a bit, as long as it doesn't cause fluctuations in the stock price."
Tencent’s current market value is only around HK$90 billion, and it will be even lower in the future.
If Lin Yicheng invested the 1 million in a short period of time, it would definitely push up the stock price and might also expose his information.
This is not what he wants to see.
The reason why I am entering quietly now is to avoid being shot down.
First of all, Tencent’s current market value is low and the return on investment is extremely high. Even if Lin Yicheng can no longer make it in the film and television industry, Tencent’s stock is his biggest fallback, and he can make a comeback at any time.
Furthermore, Lin Yicheng also wanted to infiltrate the enemy.
If you can gradually become a small shareholder of Tencent, hold more than 5% of the shares, and have a board seat, you will have a certain say then.
Then many things can be discussed, and there will be fewer constraints.
Although he is confident in himself, given Lin Yicheng's personality, he still needs to be prepared for various possibilities.
Among the three great families in later generations, Ahri's people were arrogant and thought they were gods. They drew a lot of PPTs but did not do many serious things. They were not considered by Lin Yicheng.
Baidu has fallen behind and is about to be kicked out of the Big Three, so it is also excluded.
Then the only optimal solution left is Tencent.
Lin Yicheng only regretted that he did not have enough funds and fame in 2002, otherwise he would definitely say to Xiao Ma Ge: "Don't panic, brother, I will be the man behind you!"
As for where the 1 million came from? Lin Yicheng could only sigh, releasing an album, what a treat!
As of May, the album "Lin Yicheng" has been on the market for more than half a year, and has sold nearly 5 million tapes and 300 million CDs in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.
More than 80 tapes and more than 40 CDs were sold in Southeast Asia.
These alone brought him more than 6000 million in pre-tax income. With the share of ringtones, this album brought him more than 1 million in income.
Therefore, he could easily come up with a small goal to invest in Tencent.
If there were not many songs left, Lin Yicheng would have become a full-time singer, and then invested the money he made in Tencent. How could building his own business be as fast as attracting investment tycoons?
