I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Jiang Huateng has his own pride. His father is a fourth-generation director, and his mother is also a great director.

And Lin Dong is just a rich bumpkin.

Since Lin Dong didn't give face, he stopped pestering him any more.

Instead, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the promotion of Broken Love for Many Days.

The short film opens the way.

The crew traveled to seven cities and shot 14 short films about broken relationships.

Different professions, different accents.

These short films were the first to be released to the market.

Not only did it arouse great repercussions and sympathy, but many people followed suit and filmed The Story of Broken Love in different versions and dialects.

Broken love suddenly became the hottest word on the Internet.

Some Weibo big Vs and celebrities also participated for various reasons.

Then there is November 11, 2011, this once-in-a-hundred-year festival of great light and light, referred to as the God Stick Festival.

In fact, Many Days of Broken Love did not start to be promoted recently.

They have been promoting it for at least half a year.

After getting the first investment from Lin Dong, Jiang Huateng released the news, which attracted several companies who had been waiting and watching to grit their teeth and go directly.

After the money is in place, they will build momentum while filming.

Until the day of November 8, 2011, the zero o'clock premiere.

The male and female protagonists Zhang Wen and Bai He both have wives and husbands, and there is no way to stir up scandals.

What's more, the other half of the two is still playing a cameo in the play.

However, both of them are well-connected in the entertainment industry, and Jiang Huateng is also a well-known TV drama director.

There were a lot of people cheering at the premiere.

There was also a big red carpet ceremony.

Ms. Qian Na from Kleist Culture Media attended on behalf of the company and left her name on the huge poster.

The boss movie is so good, I feel like I want to make money!

That's the report she came back from after watching the premiere, and the whole company was buzzing.

Kleist Culture Media has been established for more than half a year, and it has not yet seen money back.

Everyone holds a high salary that makes the whole industry tremble, and lives in a luxury apartment that even executives of other companies are reluctant to live in. Everyone is worried all day long, fearing that the company may not be able to survive one day.

It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

When you are used to a high salary of 40,000 yuan a month, who the hell is willing to receive 4,000 yuan.

Therefore, when they knew that the movie was well shot and would sell well, they were the ones who were most excited.

What is their boss doing?

Please see the chat history of the [Hogwarts] WeChat group.

Manman: The boss doesn't seem very happy.

Wang Da: I also found out that the drink the boss ordered today seems to be lemon juice, and he only drinks sour when he is upset.

I'm not Bao'er: Didn't you say you drink sour food only when you're pregnant?

I'm Belle: Could it be Mr. Lin has it.

Lan Lan: Is it really okay for us to complain about the boss like this?

Favorite Xiaoqianqian: The chat history in the group is forbidden to spread outside!

Sister: Do you know that the boss carries a small stick with him, I have seen it several times.

Wang Da: Pfft! Goddess, you have changed.

Shanshan: It's too dirty~

Manman: Σ(っ°Д°;) っOh my god, this is not the car to go to kindergarten, please let me down quickly, she is still a child!

I'm Belle: You old boy who draws comics.

Sister: You...

Qixi: Don't make trouble, it's not what you think, Mr. Lin does, and I've seen it too.

Man Man: Huh, the taste is so strong, so exciting.

Shanshan: Everyone remembers and pretends not to see it. It’s because they didn’t see it, or something.

Lan Lan: Mr. Lin's birthday is next month, so let's give him a magic wand.

Wang Da: Good idea, saving money and trouble. By the way, Sister Na, how much box office can you estimate today.

Favorite small money: On the first day, I think it must be at least 30 million.

I'm not Bao'er: If there are 30 million a day, how much will the total box office be?

Favorite small money: It's hard to say, it's no problem if it's over 100 million.

Manman: In that case, can I ask for a dinner party to celebrate?

Shanshan: If it exceeds 100 million, Mr. Lin will be happy, and he won't be so stingy that he doesn't even invite a meal.

However, the internal employees of Kleist Cultural Media in the WeChat group were a little too optimistic. The box office on November 8 was not 30 million, only less than 20 million.

Although various media praised it, it still made everyone feel uneasy.

Especially the box office dropped a little the next day.

This is the case when the major theaters have increased some filming.

If it is the main creative team of Many Days of Broken Love that is most worried about the box office, followed by investors.

The turning point came on the third day.

Boss Lin, congratulations! Jiang Huateng called Lin Dong directly to congratulate him.

No matter how much Lin Dong didn't want to pay attention, he couldn't stop others from congratulating him.

Congrats on your hammer.

This is not Congratulations!

This is rubbing salt in the wound.

Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, but finally endured and did not directly delete friends.

Jiang Huateng used the mentality that being happy alone is not as good as being happy with others, and told Lin Dong that on the third day of Broken Love for Many Days, that is, on the day of God's Stick, the box office broke 46 million in a single day.

One day is more than the previous two days!

It was almost over a billion.

Breaking through 100 million in the first week, no, now the industry believes that this movie can break 150 million in the first week.

Lin Dong's small fortune has made a big fortune, and he has obtained tens of millions of profits with millions of investments. It is indeed worthy of congratulations. These days, he has been calling to congratulate him, and some of them have never been contacted by him before.

Congratulations, congratulations, have you done everything you need to do?

Lin Dong happened to go back to the company that day, but was surrounded by a group of employees and sprinkled cumin on his wound.

Boss Lin, our movie has made money, can I get a bonus? Chen Xiaoman, the second veteran to join the company, was pushed out to ask for a reward.

If I think too much about you, the most I can do is have a dinner and travel at public expense.

Lin Dong is not opposed to giving money to employees. If the system is willing, he wants everyone to send one million to celebrate.

It's okay to have a dinner together, we want to have a big meal.

Eat all you want, but don't waste it. Is the new finance guy on board?

It's already working, and it's still in the trial stage.

Sister Shan, please work hard and help me with my two film remunerations, as well as the company's box office share this time, to file a tax return.

You don't need to pay for the film, and your two payments are after-tax, which is basically how it is done in the industry now. Shi Shanshan is very professional.

What about the box office share?

The box office will pay value-added tax before splitting the account. After we get the return on investment, we need to pay business tax on the profit.

At that time, after the box office split is completed, the tax money will arrive in the account, and you urge the newcomers to deal with it.

Lin Dong's system will settle the settlement in advance, and call the part that Lin Dong can control and reinvest first. When the box office is actually divided, the money paid will be deducted, and only the money that Lin Dong can't control for tax payment will be sent. .

Besides one finance guy, we hired a few other people.

Chen Xiaoman showed Lin Dong the results of the recruitment.

Lin Dong flipped through it not very interested, and threw it directly to Shi Shanshan.

Miss sister, aren’t you a cow, then those who can do more work.

The company has more than twenty employees.

Mainly the assistants of a few artists, the manager couldn't find a suitable one for a while, so he had to use the assistant first.

If you do well, you can also directly act as a broker.
