Chapter 16: Let Them Endorse My Movie (Part 2!)

3D special effects movies are not an uncommon thing in China.

Before the release of many movies, they are promoted in the name of 3D special effects.

Such as......

"The Battle of the Great Wall" reads on the promotional poster, "A gorgeous epic blockbuster, Hollywood's top special effects team, take you into a shocking 3D visual feast......"

The propaganda poster is very bluffing.

And then......

Everyone understands the ending......

Chinese cinema seems to have entered a very strange pathology.

This kind of pathology makes many people prefer to give 90% of their investment to movie promotion and traffic stars, rather than really polish a movie that many audiences like.

Or rather......

Under the comfortable environment, many directors have lost their sense of smell, and then the arrival of the era of traffic fans, coupled with the emergence of capital gambling agreements, made them gradually become more and more impetuous and eager......

In the end, it will be difficult to turn back on the crooked road as it goes farther and farther.

Don't forget your original intention......

It's easy to say, but how hard is it to actually do it?

Therefore, in this over-publicized environment, the so-called 3D special effects movies can even be said to be rotten streets, and many fans have expressed their hehe.

And Shen Lang has to do a big thing......

I just want to try to make a 3D movie like "Transformers".

Don't look at the word try......

In fact, this project is very big for Shen Lang.

It's as difficult as the movie "Our Youth".

..........................................

Time passed day by day......

In the blink of an eye, it is October 8th.

The "sucking fans" incident began to fade away, and the entertainment industry began to return to the hustle and bustle of the past.

A hot discussion on Weibo gradually turned into a hot search.

The hot topic is "the price of pork has risen".

The price has increased from 12 yuan to 15 yuan and 8......

After many netizens saw the title of "pork price increase", as if they had seen an outlet, they constantly began to complain about how difficult their lives were, and then talked about the rapid rise in major prices......

Finally, it's time to get to the house......

It has been found that in 12 to 13 years, housing prices have skyrocketed.

The houses on the outskirts of Yanjing have risen to 50,000 or 60,000 square meters at this moment, which is more than 10,000 square meters higher than last year!

Of course, many people's wages have also begun to rise, but the amount of this wage increase is really ......

In short, if you look on Weibo, you will find that many people are saying that they can't even afford to eat pork, and then you can probably only go to ask for food.

Shen Lang naturally saw these heated discussions on Weibo.

After reading it, he fell into deep thought.

In fact, the soaring price of these things is not for no reason, although many people on the Internet are complaining about their eating soil, but in essence, Shen Lang still sees the rapid development of China's economy.

This development will certainly affect the film industry......

For example, the average movie ticket price of major theaters has increased, some from 15 to 18, and some from 18 to 20......

What does the increase in movie ticket price mean?

It means that there may be a wave of big dividends at the box office of Huaxia next year, and if this big wave of dividends is eaten well, Shen Lang can even break a box office record for Chinese movies......

Shen Lang shook his head violently? Don't think about it.

Then I took a look at the floating house prices in Yanjing......

He wants to buy a house......

Yes!

Been in this world for so long? He has always rented other people's houses and has never bought his own.

How does it feel? There is always a little bit of indescribable feeling.

Finally, I took a look at my current asset situation.

What does the income add up? That's a total of about 1.5 billion available funds.

"Xiao Chu ......"

"Mr. Shen?"

"How much does it cost to buy a building on the edge of Yanjing......"

"Buying a house?"

"Hmm. ”

"Mr. Shen? What kind of building do you want?"

"What about a building like this?" Shen Lang looked at his company.

"Such a building...... It's about three billion ......."

“......”

"Mr. Shen, what building do you value in that area now?"

"Just ask ...... casually"

"Oh. ”

"By the way? Xiao Chu? How many car brands do we have in Huaxia?" After hearing this number, Shen Lang subconsciously chose to change the topic.

"Car brand?"

"Well, it's our own car brand in Huaxia, and some cars from other countries are counted......"

"Haven't you really counted this? But? There are about 20 well-known car brands. ”

"What about motorcycle and electric car brands?"

"This ......" When he heard this, Xiao Chu was a little confused, if it is a car brand, Xiao Chu can probably estimate a number? However, you say motorcycle electric car brand.

This......

No matter how powerful Xiao Chu is? There's no way she's going to be so powerful.

"Xiao Chu...... I hope you will sort out a piece of information for me, the first information is Huaxia's car brand? The second piece of information is Huaxia's electric and motorcycle brands, huh? Tricycles too? The third brand is our Huaxia excavator brand ......"

“......”

in the office.

Xiao Chu opened his mouth? The eyes were all blank.

What do you want all this for?

She didn't know what kind of medicine her boss was selling in the gourd......

"Can you do this?"

"Can be ...... Mr. Shen, can I ask, what are these, what are these?"

"Let them sponsor us to make a movie ......"

"Huh?"

"By the way, Xiao Chu, in addition to these, I also need a questionnaire on the current situation of the film market, a questionnaire specifically for the science fiction action movie genre, in addition, there is also a survey report on the movies that fans want to see the most......" Shen Lang touched his chin, and then said these words.

"Good ......"

Xiao Chu nodded.

When I turned around, my mind was still full of the words of the car brands, electric car brands, and excavator brands that Shen Lang said......

"That's right, Xiao Chu......"

"What?"

"Tractors too...... Especially the hand-held ......"

“???”

After Xiao Chu left, Shen Lang was silent for a while, and then looked at his money.

He closed his eyes.

After about five minutes, he picked up the phone as if he had made up his mind.

"Chu He ......"

"What's wrong?"

"I want to rent a house, do you have any other office buildings here? It's better to be the kind ......that doesn't need to be renovated, it's already renovated, and can be used directly."

"How big is the place......

"Try to be as spacious and big as possible, a little bigger than the current office building with the special effect of "Heavenly Soldier"......"

"Hmm......" Chu He on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally nodded, "Yes, when do you want to rent?"

"The sooner the better......"

"Yanjing?"

"Hmmm......"

After making the call with Chu He, Shen Lang made another call to the thin monkey.

"Skinny Monkey ......"

"Brother Lang, what's wrong?"

"What specifications of computer equipment do you need for a two-hour Hollywood blockbuster, or what kind of conditions do you need to control a mature 3D blockbuster?"

"This ...... Brother Lang, is it outsourced?"

"Try not to outsource ......"

"This ...... The investment can be very large. ”

"You type a plan report to me, I'll review it, I need to know what you need......"

“???”

..........................................

Day 2......

The thin monkey handed a bill to Shen Lang with a worried expression.

I don't know why, when I walked into Shen Lang's office in the past, the thin monkey was with a relaxed attitude, but this time, the thin monkey had an indescribable sense of depression......

He even felt a nervous smell in the air throughout the office.

After Shen Lang took the bill, he reviewed it very carefully.

The bill is densely packed with countless branded instruments, and in addition to branded instruments, there are also many price lists.

Every price list is sky-high!

"Skinny Monkey...... If we have these conditions, can we make a real 3D movie?"

"Yes, yes. ”

"Then do it......"

The skinny monkey felt his skull buzz.

Even the legs and stomachs are shaking.

"Brother Lang, this wave is so big?" Although the thin monkey had a premonition that Shen Lang might have to play a big one, he really didn't expect Shen Lang to play such a big one.

"Didn't you complain about the lack of advanced equipment before?"

"However, I didn't say I wanted it now......" The thin monkey looked at Shen Lang blankly.

He felt the oppressive feeling in the office stronger.

"Since you have to do it sooner or later, then let's do it as soon as possible! Don't you want to make the first movie special effects in China? In the past, the scale of this small workshop was too difficult to do......

"Brother Lang, do you want to ...... new movie?"

"Well, make a try!"

"This time the investment is so terrifying, what if, we fail? And I, I may not have the confidence to ......"

The skinny monkey took a deep breath and shook his head constantly.

He is no longer the stunned young man who felt he was omnipotent.

The more he mixed in this world, the more he felt small, and the more he felt that he was incapable.

And now......

All of a sudden, such a big burden suddenly weighed on him, and he really didn't have any confidence to carry it.

"If you fail, you fail, as learning, if you can't even accept failure, then how can you succeed?"

Spacious office.

Shen Lang looked at the thin monkey calmly and said this lightly.

The thin monkey sat on the chair opposite Shen Lang.

"Brother Lang, our step is too exaggerated, this is almost the same as a medium-sized special effects company...... Otherwise, let's outsource, so that the risk will be less......"

"Scared?"

"Well, I'm scared. ”

"Try to do it, there's a way out. ”

“......”

The skinny monkey was silent for a long, long time, and when he saw the approval on the bill, he finally nodded.

..............................

"Mr. Zheng, I'm going to take back the house, how many days can you accompany?"

"What?"

"Mr. Zheng, according to the contract, count me as a breach of contract, you give me an account, and I will pay you liquidated damages......"

“???”
