314 Chapter 314 Ruyi

At that time, Feng Nan made it sound like she was a very powerful person. She was born in the Feng family of Zhongnan industry, and her grandfather was a member of the revolutionary Army in his early years. She had a deep friendship with several big shots in the capital.

It was precisely because of these words that Dong Mingsheng believed her without a doubt.

She then mentioned the movie she was going to shoot and made a solemn vow. Only then did Dong Mingsheng withdraw his investment in ” events of Beiping. putting aside the fact that he had offended Lin xiwen, he only realized that there was someone behind Jiang se after he withdrew his investment.

!!
If ” events of Beiping ” was really as Feng Nan had said, the total box office sales in China would be around 700 million Yuan.

After all, the movie had an investment of more than 200 million Yuan. After deducting the shares from the cinema and cinema lines, as well as all kinds of other expenses, it did not earn much. Dong Mingsheng could still think it through.

Who knew that in the end, ” Grand occasion of Beiping ” had reached 2.3 billion in the domestic box office and 3.8 billion in the global box office.

The person who invested in this film made a fortune. When Dong Mingsheng heard the news, he was so regretful that he could not sleep for months. Every time he thought about it, he would fly into a rage.

He had listened to Feng Nan’s words back then, which had caused him to offend many people by withdrawing his funds at the last minute. Now, the development of Hua Investment Group was restricted everywhere. In the past year or so, things had not been smooth. Many of the projects that he had high hopes for were always made difficult by others. He had also broken off with his old friend Lin xiwen.

On the other hand, Feng Nan’s side did not play any role at all.

The reason why Dong Mingsheng was willing to cooperate with her and listen to her long-winded speech was because of Feng Zhongliang. However, he heard that Feng Nan and Feng Zhongliang were in a huge argument and had even moved out of the Feng family. The relationship between the grandfather and grandson was extremely bad.

There was also news of her not getting along with Zhao junhan, the Jianghua group’s heir. At that time, he had guessed that something had gone wrong with the cooperation between Zhongnan industry and the Jianghua group, and he was ready to take the opportunity to leave. However, Feng Nan still wanted to use the same words to trick him into investing.

Dong Mingsheng suppressed his anger and knocked on the table. He did not hide the sneer and suspicion on his face.

Feng Nan also knew that all her promises would be false. Dong Mingsheng was a typical person who would not let go until he saw the Hare. She had already come prepared to persuade him this time.

She pushed the folder in front of her toward Dong Mingsheng and narrowed her eyes.

“President Dong, look at this.”

Dong Mingsheng brought the documents over and opened the folder. There were two contracts inside. Feng Nan did not bother to beat around the bush with him.

here are two contracts. Why don’t we make a bet and sign a bet agreement? the bet will be based on ‘revenge’.

She paused for a moment and saw Dong Mingsheng flipping through the contract with a nonchalant expression. She guessed that this old man must not have taken her words seriously. She suppressed her anger and continued,

I know the reason why I miscalculated ‘the event of Beiping’ previously. You may have misunderstood me. I would like to ask you to give me another chance. I’ll bet with ‘revenge’. If you invest five million into’ revenge’, I guarantee that I’ll give you more than five times the profit after the event.

She raised her right hand and spread out her fingers, her expression calm.

“If the box office returns you more than five times, you can invest in the remaining movies.”

When Feng Nan said this, Dong Mingsheng became interested. “What if the box office doesn’t do as well as you’ve estimated?”

“Impossible!” Feng Nan said firmly.

Dong Mingsheng did not know where her confidence came from. After she finished speaking, she felt that her tone was a little too certain and it might cause Dong Mingsheng to be suspicious. Hence, she softened her tone,

if the box office fails and the profit is less than five times, I’ll pay you out of my own pocket. I’ll also invest in a few movies as you like. If you don’t believe me, we can write it down in black and white in the contract.

Since she had already said this, Dong Mingsheng naturally did not reject her again. Instead, he pondered for a moment.

His attitude had already proven that he was moved. Dong Mingsheng was an investor, and this bet was beneficial to him. The success of ‘revenge’ showed Feng Nan’s ability. Once the box office really exceeded five times the return as she had expected, this deal would still be possible.

If it were not for Feng Nan’s confidence in ‘revenge’ and the fact that she knew that in a few years ‘time,’ revenge ‘would become one of the most well-known films in China in recent years that had a high box office sales despite having a small production cost and a good reputation, winning many awards, Feng Nan would not have made such a bet with Dong Mingsheng.

As expected, in the end, Dong Mingsheng and Feng Nan still signed the contract. However, even though he was confident that he had signed the agreement with Dong Mingsheng, Feng Nan could not help but feel a burning rage in his heart when he thought about this.

In the three years since her rebirth, everything had gone wrong for her. She wanted to use ‘revenge’ to regain the audience’s attention.

She had thought about it. The original total investment for was more than two million Yuan, but it seemed to be less than three million Yuan. It would be very difficult to film it.

Feng Nan had watched an interview with the original director, Li Li, and he had mentioned some of his experiences during the shooting. She probably remembered the plot of ‘revenge’ very clearly. It was similar to ‘demon’, which later won many awards. It was a story about a mother taking revenge for her child.

The female protagonist in was a police officer. Her husband had an affair and divorced in his early years, leaving behind an only daughter.

However, this daughter had died by accident at the hands of a young man.

In a fit of anger, the female lead began her revenge operation.

Feng Nan remembered the plot, and she had repeatedly recalled some of her experiences during the shooting and had even recorded them down. She had also decided to increase her investment in ‘revenge’ and try to make it as perfect as possible.

She recalled the comments by some famous film Critics when she watched ‘revenge’ in her previous life. They had even made some changes to ‘revenge’ to suit the audience’s taste.

Feng Nan believed that he would not encounter the same difficulties as ‘revenge’ in his memory before he was reborn. He believed that after the film was released, it would not be a problem to get back five times the income.

Even though ‘revenge’ could not be compared to ‘demon’ in the early stages of filming, Feng Nan felt that the final success of ‘demon’ was inseparable from the male lead, Liu Ye.

His acting skills were superb, and he played the demon Luo Shen in the film very vividly. It was also his first transition, and it was an important turning point in Liu Ye’s acting career.

At the same time, it had a lot to do with his early filming of Zhang Jingan’s ” rescue mission “, which had made him famous internationally.

Therefore, when ” demon ” took part in the France Film Festival in the later stages, although Liu Ye won the Best Male Lead Award at the French Film Festival and took a step into the International Film industry, the female lead in the film did not become popular for long. When people talked about ” demon, ” other than Zhao rang, they only remembered Liu Ye at most.
