Chapter 16: The Core Selling Point Turned Out to Be ......
"Still have questions?"
The conference room was silent, even Wang Kui, a veteran of the TV circle, had no opinion, and others dared to speak?
Du Fang and Wang Kui stayed, and the others could leave. ”
With Du Fang's appointment, Pengda Film and Television is finally no longer an air company, and now it has begun to take shape. With the blood transfusion of the factory, Pengda Film and Television has taken social recruitment as the main and school recruitment as the supplement, and now it has transformed from a shell company into a regular film and television company with a total employee of more than 100 people.
Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.
Under the president's office, Pengda Film and Television has added five new departments, the legal department, the marketing operation department, the art production department, the administrative management department and the finance department.
The legal department is currently an empty shell, outsourced to a local law firm.
The market operation department has an operation director, which is currently vacant and has 13 employees, who are responsible for handling the company's various business market development operations and customer services, including docking with major TV stations.
The production department is precisely the "production department", with two positions: art director and production director (director), the art director is Wang Kui, and the production director is Meng Lang. There are five subordinate groups, namely the film crew, the lighting group, the editing group, the props and costumes group, and the special effects group.
The production department has the largest number of employees, with 76 people!
This was followed by the Administration Department, with Du Fang as the administrative director, who was responsible for managing the company's equipment, personnel and other affairs.
The finance department is also an empty shell at present, although this department has been established, and there are also exclusive accountants and cashiers, but this is a person sent by the parent company, which is not under the jurisdiction of Meng Lang.
Comrade Meng squeezed his money bag very tightly, for fear that his stupid son would not be able to think of throwing hundreds of millions of dollars into a big movie production one day......
Excluding the empty shell legal department and finance department, and ignoring the market operation department that has no boss for the time being, it can be said that Du Fang and Wang Kui, who are currently staying in the conference room, are almost the only senior management of Pengda Film and Television.
"The recruitment of the director of marketing operations has to be accelerated! The production department is still short of people, Director Du, you can put more effort into this aspect! The salary can be given a higher ......"
As soon as Meng Lang finished speaking, Du Fang complained: "I'm not a magician who will make a big difference in the trick of a living person, Mr. Meng, it's useless for you to urge every day! People don't look down on start-ups and don't submit resumes, so I can't go to the door to kidnap people." ”
"Startups are really not easy to recruit...... Wang Kui nodded on the side.
Maybe it's fine in other industries, but in the film and television industry, it's hard for a startup to attract talent, unless you give you the best treatment in the industry.
Meng Lang also admitted this, he thought about it and said: "Then reduce the amount of investment in social recruitment advertising, go to school to recruit, no matter whether the major is right or not, as long as there are real materials, you can recruit and cultivate." ”
"I have arranged for someone to do the school recruitment, and the effect is still very good at present, after all, our treatment is very high, and it is difficult for fresh graduates to refuse us. ”
"So let's do it first. ”
After talking about the company's recruitment, Meng Lang turned to Wang Kui and asked, "What do you think of "Balala Little Demon Fairy"?"
Wang Kui frowned and thought for a while, and then asked, "Mr. Meng, how much do you plan to invest in this drama?"
I said don't call me Mr. Meng!
Meng Lang has completely accepted the title of these two people, but to get back to the point, the little demon fairy is the first work of Pengda Film and Television to move towards regularization, and there is a yo-yo income in the budget, and Meng Lang doesn't mind spending more money.
"Twenty million!"
"Is it Xuanfa?" Wang Kui couldn't help but ask.
This is a crucial point!
If 20 million does not announce the pure production budget, then there will definitely be more money later, and a drama can't be filmed without 30 or 40 million.
Thirty or forty million is barely a member of the "big production".
And if the publicity and distribution fee is included, the budget of 20 million will be about 10 million at most for the producer, and it may be lower.
The cost gap between the two determines the final quality of this drama.
Meng Lang nodded, of course, this includes the publicity and distribution funds. A Balala Little Demon Fairy took 20 million shots, so how stupid is he?
Wang Kui tapped his fingers on the table, and his brain quickly calculated each part of the production process that needed to cost money, and then came to a rough conclusion.
"If the equipment is ready-made, then it can be filmed! In terms of actors' salaries, the budget is compressed, and the money is spent on special effects and styling design, which should still be watchable. ”
"Come with me!"
Chu Yan snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "The special effects are more delicate for some money, please design the shape with the experts in the industry, 10 million is definitely enough!"
It's not enough, it's more than enough!
The original Balala Little Demon Fairy, removing the places that people can't help but want to complain about, actually has advantages.
For example, the special effects are very sincere, in that era, the magic special effects of Balala Little Demon Fairy have surpassed the three-mao special effects standard of similar special effects dramas, and five-mao special effects are used!
Although you will feel that the special effects are very profitable when you watch it now, you must know that when Ao Fei filmed this drama, he did spend a lot of money on special effects.
Of course, Aofei's "big money" is naturally not as much as Hollywood special effects blockbusters in the same period, but compared with many domestic sci-fi special effects TV series, it is already extremely good.
Advantage 1: Magic effects with bells and whistles!
Advantage 2: Character design!
Meiqi Miyuki, Demon Fairy Blue Xiaoyue, Prince of Pleasure, Demon Fairy Queen, and Yan Lili have put a lot of effort into the styling, costumes and makeup of these characters.
What is the biggest selling point of the original "Balala Little Demon Fairy"?
Transformation!
Only transformation is the core content of this show!
Why does Meiqi Miyuki, who has not transformed, make people feel "a little ugly", but after transforming, it instantly makes the audience's eyes "light up"?
It's all the work of the design!
Of course, Yan Lili is an exception......
The role of Yan Lili, due to the need to be "ugly" in the play, the appearance of the black magic fairy instantly dropped a notch after the transformation, but Yan Lili in a normal state turned out to be the most beautiful!
The image before and after the "transformation" is designed to be very different, just to make the little girls excited.
Ahhh
Meiqi Miyuki is so beautiful after transforming into a little demon fairy!
What does it take to transform?
Suddenly inserted an advertisement: "[BGM] Balala Energy - Sharosaro - Little Demon Fairy's whole body changes!~ "Balala Little Demon Fairy" genuine Demon Fairy Harp and Demon Fairy Harp are now on sale! Come and join us!"
Ask ......
Who can withstand this?
Transformation is the core content of this show, just like the yo-yo of "Fire Boy King", as long as the core content is done well, other places can shrink, and there is no need to hesitate.
The budget of 10 million is based on the fact that there is a general bubble in actors' salaries in today's environment. Ten years ago, maybe four or five million would have been able to make it.
