Chapter 125: Movies and TV Series

"The script for your new film has been written?" Ning Hao looked up and asked.

This guy has been busy with movies and companies lately, why is the script so fast?

"It's pretty much written. Chen Hao nodded and said, "What about you, are you going to shoot a new drama recently?"

"The script has just begun, and it will take a while. Ning Hao shook his head.

"Then how about following me to do a photography first?" Chen Hao asked.

"Okay, it's okay for the time being. Ning Hao agreed.

Chen Hao smiled and nodded, "Sister Na, it's troublesome for you to follow the matter of cooperating with Ceres Film and Television in "Li Wei Becomes an Official 2", you can contact Xu Shanzheng to see if you can get the heroine in addition to the role of Xiaohu." ”

"Okay. Xing Aina replied, "By the way, I have already contacted the Qidian Chinese website, and they are very interested in what you want to inject funds." ”

Chen Hao smiled when he heard this, the current Qidian Chinese Network has just been established, far from the influence of later generations, and there is no plan to launch a sales plan.

Their current income is entirely dependent on advertising, but the website has little influence, and there are naturally not many people who are willing to pay for advertising, and the price is also very low.

The online article is just emerging, and there is no capital to be optimistic or enter this field, so the operating cost is a heavy burden for them.

At the beginning of the century, all aspects of the network field were just emerging or just appeared, and although the competitive environment may not be as fierce as later generations, one of the biggest problems they often face is how to make a profit.

There are no profit channels, operating costs and publicity and promotion expenses are constantly burning funds, and entrepreneurs who are forced to do so can only seek financing in the end.

Otherwise, it can only be cobbled together to support it, and it is difficult to say whether it can be supported in the end.

If you meet a peer who is backed by capital, then under the other party's money-burning war strategy, what awaits you is often annihilation, or annexation!

Therefore, hard-working entrepreneurs basically have no second way to go, so they can only choose financing, through shares in exchange for start-up capital.

Of course, financing also has benefits, with the support of funds, you can continue to spend money on promotion, staking land, and after occupying most of the market, there is nothing to worry about.

The current Qidian Chinese Network is completely supported by a few founders, and there is no financial owner to rely on behind, and it is estimated that it will not last long.

And accepting capital can only be their only choice, and they should have been prepared for a long time.

"Then find a suitable time to meet!" Chen Hao said.

"I made a note of it. Xing Aina said.

"By the way, Haozi, the reform of the film market theater chain was implemented last month, do you think this method is effective?" Hao Yi asked.

On December 18, 2001, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and the Ministry of Culture jointly issued Document No. 1519 on the Implementation Rules for the Reform of the Film Distribution and Screening Mechanism.

It is proposed to "implement a cinema-based distribution and screening mechanism, reduce the distribution level, change the mode of supplying films according to the administrative regional plan, change the single multi-level distribution to the first-level distribution based on the cinema chain, and the distribution company and the production unit directly supply the film to the cinema company."

......

The supply of imported sub-account films will cease to be supplied to places that have not formed a cinema chain before 1 June 2002 (except in approved areas). ”

"Of course it worked, but it certainly wasn't so immediate. Chen Hao said, "But in the long run, the theater system will definitely be better than before, and the box office of the movie will be higher and higher." ”

"But now, I feel like making movies is too risky, and I'm basically losing money. Hao Yi shook his head and said, "Your "Moon" will also lose money if you only look at the box office." ”

"The Moon" has just ended its 6th week of release, with a single-week box office of only 580,000, and a total box office of 31.56 million!

According to the current box office sharing model, the producer and distributor can get a total of 31.56 million * 91.7% * 35% = 10.1291 million.

If you remove the 2 million publicity and distribution expenses paid by Chen Hao, then there are only more than 8 million left, and if it is really calculated according to the cost of 10 million, it will be a loss.

Even if it is calculated at 3.5 million, it will earn about 3 million.

A movie only earned 3 million at the box office, and this movie is likely to rank among the top five at the annual box office.

Even if you can sell audio and video rights, sell to CCAV6, or overseas rights, it is unrealistic for most films.

The result is one word, compensation!

"Now the mainland film market is like this, there is no way. Chen Hao shook his head and said.

"Since the movie is likely to lose money, and even if it does, it won't make much, so why don't we shoot a TV series?" Hao Yi proposed.

Chen Hao frowned slightly when he heard this, according to the probability and amount of profitability, the TV series at the beginning of the century were indeed much more reliable than the movies.

"Now TV series can basically be sold, and they can sell millions of dollars if they make a small profit, and popular TV series can make tens of millions of profits, and they can be sold for several rounds all the time.

Not to mention something like "Huanzhu Gege", which not only sold a few rounds, but sold for several years. Hao Yi said.

Chen Hao smiled when he heard this, "I didn't see it, you still have some research on TV dramas." ”

Hao Yisao smiled, "Anyway, I am also a shareholder of the company, of course I have to do my part for the development of the company." ”

Hearing this, Chen Hao looked at Ning Hao and Xing Aina again, "What do you think?"

Ning Hao thought for a while and said, "Although I prefer to make movies, what Hao Yi said is undoubtedly right, for the company, movies are indeed risky, and TV series are more secure." ”

Xing Aina said, "I don't think there's any need to worry about it, we can shoot both movies and TV series." TV series are indeed more secure, and the probability of recovering and even making money is greater.

But movies can't be left out, and if a film and television company wants to expand its influence, it can't do it without making movies, even if it's just to improve the company's influence and status.

is also to give its artists room to develop and rise, and we should also make movies.

What's more, we still have Mr. Chen, Ning Hao is also very potential, it's too wasteful not to make a movie, don't put your eggs in one basket, we can bet at the same time. ”

Chen Hao and the three of them couldn't help but nod when they heard this, "Then it's decided, in the future, the company's movies and TV series will be parallel, grasp it with both hands, and both hands must be hard!"

Xing Aina said again, "But now the company has a total of 10 million in its accounts, and it has promised to invest 3 million in "Li Wei Dangguan 2", and at least 2 million will be left for backup, so the maximum amount of funds we can use is only 5 million!"

Chen Hao smacked his lips when he heard this, this money is not enough, although he has his own money, but since he has divided the shares, then his money and the company's money must be separated, otherwise the accounts will be unclear.

But 5 million is not enough to make movies or TV series!
