Mission Flow - Vol 2 Chapter 181

Cao Su looked at Jia Zihao.

Jia Zihao is a good person, otherwise he would not be able to become a peripheral company of Hong Kong capital. Dapeng’s current situation is a bit unpredictable.

To say that there is no work, his Diao silk man is very popular on the Internet. Generally, talents from film academies do not have the level and popularity of his show.

To say that there are works, after all, online dramas are not serious TV dramas that are being broadcast, and the asking price cannot be opened.

He suggested: “Mr. Cao, according to director Dapeng’s market situation, give him a salary of 1 million + 1 box office dividend. We mainly use the funds for filming.”

From his point of view, he has never seen Cao Su’s vision in film and television investment. So even though Cao Su said he was optimistic about the script, he still remained cautious. Then the common practice is to bundle the director and the film income.

In fact, domestic director remuneration is rarely tied to box office dividends. In the past, the director was paid to work, and the boss gave a big red envelope. It’s over after the filming is over, the ghosts will control how much you sell at the box office.

The movie market used to be small! That is to say, Feng Pants’ New Year’s comedy can exceed 100 million at the box office.

Now the domestic movie box office is gradually increasing, all the actors are the best and the director. Everyone is the director, and they directly do the work of the producer. Roughly the same, the interests are divided directly according to the box office.

Dapeng felt a little joy in his heart. This exceeded his expectations! He is currently working at Sohu Video. Salary is 8k. Shoot a movie and earn it back in a few months!

Yun Wenhao and Wei Jianyu both smiled. This is the current industry atmosphere in the country. A huge, chaotic gaming jungle! There are no uniform rules, only a general range, and the amount of income depends entirely on how you talk about it.

Cao Su did the math in his heart and said, “2+3! The 2 million salary plus 3 box office dividends.

Director Dapeng, I am very optimistic about this movie! I think there will be a good box office. I hope to create a good reputation, that is, our Qianyuan Culture is willing to share the benefits with all excellent directors.

Yun Shao joined the group with capital, he will be the producer of this film, and he will only get 5 of the proceeds. ”

Dapeng quickly expressed his position, stood up, raised his glass and said, “Mr. Cao, this salary has exceeded my imagination. Thank you very much for your investment, and thank you very much for your attention to me.”

Cao Su smiled and nodded, clinking glasses with Dapeng, “Director Dapeng, happy cooperation! You can talk to Yun Shao about the rest. Qianyuan Culture will prepare the contract. Tomorrow at the office of Qianyuan Culture in Wangjing. The venue will hold a press conference for the launch of the project.”

Only he himself knew how much money he had just distributed. 10 million! But what he wants is the reputation of thousands of dollars to buy horse bones!

During his time in the capital, he was able to figure out some flavor. The production model of the domestic film and television industry still lags behind that of Hollywood. The big companies over there are engaged in distribution, financing, theme development and so on.

And big domestic companies are looking for good projects!

And this determines that in the multi-party game of interests, the proportion of directors and actors will increase!

Therefore, the domestic film and television industry is now properly directed by the director-centered system. It is even a little bit evolving into an “actor” centered system. Now many traffic actors have unparalleled appeal to their fans!

Because of this, the restraint of the film company on the director is very weak! Who wants to honestly work for a big film company when they have money to make? Is it bad to invest yourself, become a producer, and participate in movie box office dividends?

Therefore, the development and growth of Qianyuan culture cannot be like the entertainment network article, which is not able to continuously recruit and train excellent directors. Actors have a brokerage contract, but they may hold it! But the director can’t.

Probably only a company like Huayi who bought Feng Pants in a big way, and then gave a performance bet: let him make a few films in a few years, and the profit must meet the standard, otherwise it will lose money.

In such a big environment, the director can only take a cooperative approach!

But Cao Su has a hunch that the capital in the film and television industry absolutely does not want their interests to be divided up by directors and actors in this way. Will definitely come up with new tricks! What it was, he had no way of knowing. What he wants to do is to build his monopoly empire!

Although the environment of the domestic film and television industry is very bad, but in the same way, there are no restrictions on monopoly! Domestic law now allows a production company to be involved in theaters, artist brokers, etc. at the same time.

In other words, as long as someone is willing to do it, it is possible to reproduce the self-production and self-selling model of the Shaw Studios era! A perfect closed loop! The law does not prohibit!

Of course, Shaw’s self-produced and self-sold model has proven to be a backward and obsolete model. But what if improvements were made? What kind of industry giant will this create?

With the current development speed of the domestic film market, it is entirely possible to rival the North American film market! As long as a classic movie is made, Qianyuan Culture will reproduce the scenery of the eight major Hollywood! Even more than that!

Yun Wenhao said: “Mr. Cao, I can’t be the first producer at my level. Can I recommend an uncle to be the first producer?”

“Can.”

Yun Wenhao got up and made a phone call, preparing to call the producer over to meet Cao Su. In fact, he had already talked about it. He doesn’t think that at the age of 24, he can grasp a movie with an investment of 40 million.

Producers are not that good. Moreover, he was unwilling to follow the film crew everywhere. Shooting is hard work.

Cao Su and Jia Zihao talked about arranging female anchors to act in movies and TV series. The “Monster Hunt” side has already rejected Cao Su’s 20 million investment, brought Andy into the arena, and has an agreement to share the box office. Cao Su is now just a small role in front of the bigwigs in the film and television industry!

Others are not willing to give him excess dividends! To give a profit margin of 20, it still depends on Jia Zihao’s years of mixed circles. But Cao Su in Hollywood compressed profits for 20th Century Fox. Big Six is ​​a monopoly. In the domestic film and television market, he is not immune to this bird!

There is one thing to say, the global film and television industry will entrap investors’ money! Not to mention Hollywood pits, pay attention, Europe is the birthplace of movies, and there are even more pits. Domestic as well!

This kind of thing is easy to prove. Assuming that all the coal bosses who invested in movies made money, then as of January 2014, why did no coal bosses still invest in movies?

Funds are being siphoned off!

Now the mainstream funds in the film and television industry come from real estate! Wanda Films and Wanda Cinemas are the symbols. And, the money of the internet is invading. Ali has cast quite a few movies. Tencent is also investing in the declining Huayi Brothers.

Jia Zihao introduced the situation. He intends to leave the TV series to his film and television company “Hero Media” for co-production, and to leave the film to Qianyuan Culture to produce independently. Moreover, he has already brought in the script and director.

As long as Cao Su nods his head and the funds go in, he can start shooting. The funding budget is 20 million and 30 million respectively.

Cao Su turned two pages of the script and frowned slightly.

Gao Yuanyuan, who was sitting beside him, graciously helped him pour wine and vegetables. In a good mood. Then her phone vibrated suddenly. She picked it up and looked at it, her face changed slightly.

“Old Jia, I asked Director Wei to direct the TV series. I have communicated with Director Wei before, and he thinks that if he wants more female characters to shine, the best TV dramas currently being done in China are the current Gong Dou dramas. There are unit dramas such as Liaozhai, as well as many emotional dramas between men and women such as marrying the wrong man on a sedan chair.

The price of Gong Dou dramas has soared after the Legend of Zhen Huan. Therefore, he intends to select a few scripts from American dramas and buy the adaptation rights. Make it again. ”

In fact, what Wei Jianyu said to him at the time was another consideration, that is, the female characters in American dramas are still ugly compared to movies, and the requirements for appearance are not so harsh. Therefore, it is suitable for female anchors to play.

In the case of movies, these female anchors are stunned by high-definition cameras, and it is easy to show their cowardice. The appearance is not enough.

Cao Su did not say these words to Jia Zihao again.

Jia Zihao’s face suddenly turned ugly, and he took a sip of wine in silence. Obviously, Cao Su rejected his idea at this time. And when the TV series is handed over to Wei Jianyu for production, where is his heroic media position?

Now the Hong Kong capital side is also talking about collapse. Then he was basically wasting all his efforts after helping Cao Su during this period of time. What is he drawing?

Cao Su looked at the other people at the dinner party and said, “Old Jia, let’s go out for a cigarette.” Together with Jia Zihao, they went outside the box of the clubhouse and sat down and chatted in the spacious and quiet hall on the first floor. “Old Jia, I don’t mind if you give yourself some benefits. But your budget of tens of millions is a bit too much, right?”

This old boy is a little greedy!

Jia Zihao showed his dissatisfaction slightly, holding a cigarette, and said: “Mr. Cao, the film and television industry is very expensive now. The production cost is not tens of millions, and there is no way to produce a finished product. I also think that the final film and television drama can be produced. to sell.”

Although he was docile and obedient by Cao Suzheng and followed Cao Su to do things, but when it came to interests, he still had to fight. So he had to show his emotions.

Cao Su didn’t want to talk to his “little brother”, but he wanted to persuade Jia Zihao to continue helping him. Now that he can find a professional manager in the film and television industry, can he be better than Jia Zihao? Probably not.

Of course, with the right options, he would definitely replace him.

Isn’t it not? In reality, where can we find the kind of management talents who are obedient, easy to use, and do not care about personal gains and losses?

Difficult!

Generally, such talents have to be cultivated by themselves.

“Looking for new people, so many people are eating in the film and television industry, how can the production cost not be reduced? I don’t need the movies I made to go to theaters~www.mtlnovel.com~ TV dramas are sold to TV stations. I will set up a long video. website.

Then put it on our own video site to watch it. Therefore, the production cost should be reduced as much as possible. This is not negotiable. ”

Jia Zihao lit the ashes and said, “Mr. Cao, the conditional cost you gave Wei Jianyu just now will not be low!”

Cao Su said: “I plan to recruit Wei Jianyu. The conditions cannot be too bad. I will hand over the film to you, and the production cost should not exceed 3 million. At least three female characters must be accommodated.”

This is actually a lie. First, Wei Jianyu is Ji Xiaoya’s biological father, and he is actually giving some benefits. Second, Wei Jianyu has works after all, and he is looking forward to it.

Of course, for these two projects, he would not use the [Project Detector] to scan them. One scan is 10 million. This money can be used for filming.

Jia Zihao sighed: “Mr. Cao, this is very simple. Change the script of Xu Zheng’s love call transfer a few years ago, and it can accommodate 7 or more female characters. It is your production cost when the time comes. …”

Cao Su interrupted him, “Old Jia, this matter is settled. If you think the cost is not enough, you can invest by yourself, or use the 3 million base to operate under the name of Hero Media. I promise Andy’s business. , you go on to help me.

Also, what are your future plans? Should you continue to engage in your Hero Media, or work at Qianyuan Culture? ”

Jia Zihao was very aggrieved, hesitated for a while, and said, “Mr. Cao, I will handle the matter. I will leave the problem and let me think about it.”

Cao Su nodded, patted Jia Zihao on the shoulder, and went to the bathroom first.

Just walking through a few corridors, I suddenly heard the sound of Da Meiyuan arguing with people.
