"Have female celebrities been throwing themselves at you these days?" Yang Chengru called to tease Chen Yiyang.
With Nezha’s box office exploding completely, the entertainnt industry is boiling over.
They’re not focused on Yang Zhou, who was responsible for making the movie.
Mainly because Yang Zhou is a hobody and doesn’t know anyone in the entertainnt circle.
But Chen Yiyang is different.
Chen Yiyang may have just stepped a foot into the entertainnt industry.
He is neither an actor nor a director or producer, just an investor.
But his record is evident; every film and television project he’s invested in has been a huge hit, with not a single loss.
When it cos to film and TV, gaming, and other entertainnt projects, what capitalists worry about isn’t the large investnt but the uncontrollable inco.
In hindsight, every failed film project can actually show signs from the very start.
But these signs are usually only detected by those on the production frontline.
However, these people are either behind-the-scenes workers or minor actors.
There’s no use for them spotting these signs. They rely on the project to make money; as long as the project continues, they can get paid.
If soone stands up to break the facade and the project gets interrupted, they’d be the first to lose their jobs.
Thus, after a project is invested in by film and television investors, they are often completely in the dark about the project’s progress and final product, only able to monitor through so data.
But this data can’t reflect the actual quality of a film project.
If you think about hiring so experts or insiders for evaluation.
But these experts and insiders are in the sa circle as directors, producers, stars, etc., and are bound to speak positively.
In the end, even if the project fails and investors lose money.
They’ll just say it’s due to audience or market issues, and that good work failed to get attention.
With Chen Yiyang’s impressive record of investing only in successful projects, many in the film circles speculated.
That Chen Yiyang, while not an actor or director, has an incredibly sharp eye.
He can judge whether a film project will make money or not just from the text and data.
There are people like him in the industry.
Like Cheng Si Cheng.
Cheng Si Cheng’s best role as an actor was in ’Soldiers’ March’ as Cheng Cai.
And when he started doing business, personally handling film project investnts, his style resembled Cheng Cai’s.
His film projects never aim to showcase much artistry, always having one clear goal: making money.
Moreover, he is soone who combines the roles and experiences of producer, director, supervisor, scriptwriter, and even actor.
His judgnt of film projects is extrely accurate.
He couldn’t always ensure high acclaim, but he sure knew if a project could make money.
Occasionally, if he accidentally made a non-profitable film, he’d sell it out early to ensure he doesn’t lose money.
So Cheng Si Cheng is highly popular within the film industry.
But Cheng Si Cheng has his own team and company, rarely collaborating with other circles, making it hard for capital to make money with him.
Now, Chen Yiyang’s performance is like a super-enhanced version of Cheng Si Cheng.
More importantly, he only invests without intervening in the project’s execution, unlike Cheng Si Cheng, who also takes the producer or director’s role.
Thus, many capitals in the entertainnt circle went completely crazy, using every ans to et with Chen Yiyang and have him review their projects.
There are even bosses who said as long as Chen Yiyang graces them by looking at the script and judging the investnt potential, they’re willing to pay.
If Chen Yiyang is willing to invest in a project, the investnt shares can be negotiated, if it ans promoting a star, even a 100% share isn’t out of question.
There’s no situation where Chen Yiyang is interested in a project but they won’t allow him to invest.
Honestly, if Chen Yiyang’s status and identity weren’t so special now, being a billionaire.
So capitals might even consider kidnapping him first, then squeezing him with a bunch of celebrities, and finally making him work for them.
But these have beco a nuisance for Chen Yiyang.
So facing Yang Chengru’s tease, Chen Yiyang directly said, "It’s all for getting that paynt license! Now, it’s gotten to the point where I’m afraid to go out because whenever I do, there’s always soone inviting. I plan to hide overseas for a few days."
"That’s a bit exaggerated, isn’t it?" Yang Chengru was suspicious.
"Haha, now if I’m willing to use any female celebrity in my projects, I could have them accompany you, and they’d be willing. Feel like trying it out?"
"Forget it, forget it, I was just joking."
Yang Chengru said, "But if you’re going abroad, where are you headed?"
"Planning to take a trip to the United Kingdom, to follow up on a solar project I’ve been discussing over there."
"Earning foreign currency is really important, you should go."
After saying this, Yang Chengru added, "Oh right, the paynt license issue has been sorted on my end, once you complete the acquisition of that company with the paynt license, you can just apply directly, if there’s no big issue, it should be approved in a month or two."
"Alright." Chen Yiyang nodded happily.
The 15 billion box office from Nezha is definitely worth celebrating.
But compared to the paynt license, it’s nothing.
Simply securing this paynt license will save Chen Yiyang’s industries millions each year.
And as Chen Yiyang grows his business, the earnings this license can bring will only increase.
"Oh, by the way." Yang Chengru continued, "Manager Xu wants to et you, and he’s in the Imperial Capital now."
"No problem at all." Chen Yiyang, aware of Manager Xu’s influence, imdiately said, "Just have Manager Xu give an address, I’ll head over directly."
After Yang Chengru provided the address of a unit building, he hung up the call.
Since Chen Yiyang had no particular errands, he decided to go straight over.
It was a unit building that looked quite simple from the outside. After finding the location, Chen Yiyang rang the doorbell, and Manager Xu personally opened the door to welco him inside.
Chen Yiyang glanced around casually and found the place was rely about 150 square ters.
"You live so simply?" Chen Yiyang was a bit surprised.
"The real estate prices in the Imperial Capital are steep, how much can a salaried person like earn?"
Manager Xu rolled his eyes, "You rich folks really don’t treat money as money."
After they sat down, they chattered casually for a bit.
"My wife is in the military, and I only see her a few tis a month. Plus, I’m still in the career advancent phase, needing to move around often, so there’s no point in buying a big house."
"I see." Chen Yiyang nodded.
