Chapter 692 New Movie, The Story of Three Men
"Brother Lu, our company now has a lot of liquidity on the books, right?"
"That's a lot, do you have any ideas?"
Mubai Entertainment's liquidity is definitely one of the best in Huaxia Entertainment Company, even if it is Huaying, which is the first of the seven majors, it does not dare to say that its liquidity stabilizes Mubai Entertainment.
Entertainment companies involve many businesses, just like investing in film and television works, it is normal to make money and lose money.
Xingcheng Entertainment made a profit in "Angel's Kiss" invested a few years ago, but the next movie "Heroes of Fire" lost money, sometimes the investment will make a lot of money, and sometimes it will lose a lot, all of which are normal business operations.
But all of Mubai Entertainment's current works are making a lot of money, and they are not losing money......
Including, several concerts held by Chen Mubai were also full and made a lot of money.
The investment in the film itself is not large, but the box office profit brought by it has increased many times, far exceeding expectations!
The return on investment of each movie has multiplied dozens of times!
is basically a model of small and broad, after all, there are not too many places where special effects are used in these movies, and they are basically spent on the actors' salaries.
Mubai Entertainment's cash flow is very terrifying, and there are no large expenditures, and there is a lot of liquidity on the books.
The box office share of "Infernal Affairs" was divided once half a month after the movie was released, and another account will be received when the movie is drawn.
Then there will be a huge amount of money!
Mubai Entertainment's company address has expanded a lot, and even bought the floor where the company is located!
"Continue to increase efforts to acquire cinemas, seize the time, complete the integration of cinemas as soon as possible, and take money to smash it. ”
Chen Mubai said: "In addition, you can check whether there are animation companies or special effects companies in the market that are about to go out of business. ”
"What are you looking for this?" Lu Fang was puzzled.
"Buying them, we have to prepare for what comes next. ”
Chen Mubai said with a smile: "The current film market has been moving forward, and it is no longer the era of relying solely on the plot or 5 cents special effects in the past, and the audience is also more and more concerned about the viewing experience, 3D effects, special effects, and ......."
"If they go to the cinema and it's the same old thing, they might as well watch it at home, because a lot of people come to the cinema just to see the kind of effect that they can't experience at home. ”
"Therefore, we also need to work special effects, keep up with special effects films, we can't always let foreign films occupy the local market, when it comes to special effects blockbusters, they will always be foreign movies, I hope that in the future we can become China's [Hollywood], I want special effects blockbusters are no longer exclusive to foreign countries!"
Lu Fang was a little surprised, he didn't expect Chen Mubai to say this.
"That's a big deal!"
"Okay, I'll investigate. A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Fang's mouth.
This is Chen Mubai, and this is what he will do, he has been working hard in the direction of what he said before, and promoting Huaxia's film and television culture to the world!
If you want to make a good special effects film, a good production team must be indispensable, and the rendering of each shot may cost tens of millions!
The special effects are realistic, they are all smashed with money, otherwise how to make others visually shocked?
It may take a lot of time and energy to make that second of footage, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources.
Chen Mubai has been carefully thought out by himself, and every step of the company is in his plan.
The initial plan was to gain a firm foothold in the film industry, first make the movie a blockbuster, make a reputation, let everyone know the quality of the works produced by Mubai Entertainment, accumulate word of mouth, and cultivate loyal fans.
After Mubai Entertainment has a certain reputation in the mouth of the public, it will start to march towards the theater to ensure the scheduling of the film, which has a huge advantage in the promotion and box office improvement of the movie.
A complete industrial chain has been completed, and Mubai Entertainment is an integrated company engaged in the production and publicity of film and television products, forming a closed loop in film and television to improve the company's influence.
Generally, the special effects of movies are outsourced to special effects companies, and the producer will discuss them and tell them the desired effect.
The price is bound to be very expensive, and it depends on the level of the company and the amount of tasks it takes.
Chen Mubai feels that cooperation is always cooperation, and there may be conflicts between external prices and specific details, and the best way is to make special effects yourself, so that you can make the best special effects to the greatest extent, and you don't have to worry about disputes between the two sides when cooperating.
Buying a company that produces special effects for the special effects of the movie, if this word spreads, it will definitely make a lot of people's jaws drop.
That's too costly!
The price of those machines and the usual maintenance and maintenance require a lot of money, which is stupid.
After all, there are so many special effects shots used in a movie, and some movies don't even use special effects shots!
It's definitely a stupid act to buy a special effects company specifically for a movie!
Chen Mubai is not for a movie, but about the next layout in the film and television industry.
There will be more and more special effects in movies, which will become the mainstream, which is also the era that has promoted the progress of the film industry, Chen Mubai has a deep understanding.
On the other hand, in the future, the investment in his works will be larger and larger, and there will be more special effects, which will require the production of special effects formulas.
Acquiring a company by yourself may seem like a lot of money, but it is beneficial to the long-term development of the company.
In addition, after acquiring a special effects company, it is not only possible to produce special effects for your own works, but also to take orders for other works, which is not a waste of resources.
Chen Mubai's meaning, Lu Fang understood, which shows that the company's next stage of works will definitely use a large number of special effects, and will slowly transform and transition to special effects blockbusters, and revitalize China's special effects films.
No one was willing to make such a big investment before, because it was too much, the probability of recovering the cost was low, and the risk was high, after all, the market was only the local market in China, and it was not comparable with the global film market in Europe and the United States.
But according to the current situation, Chen Mubai's appeal is very strong, even if he spends hundreds of millions of production costs, he should be able to win billions of box office results, and the income is still not small.
If Chen Mubai really plays slogans such as revitalizing Chinese movies and science fiction movies, there will definitely be people who support it.
Every time a foreign blockbuster sweeps the Huaxia film market, some netizens hope that Huaxia movies can also have this kind of special effects, which is not a person's long-cherished wish.
Once this kind of work appears, everyone will definitely support this work!
With Chen Mubai's current reputation, everyone absolutely believes in him, and it will not be those false propaganda.
In fact, Chen Mubai also has benefits in doing this, which can improve the status of Chinese films in the world.
Of the four films produced by Chen Mubai, except for "Buried Alive", which was in the limelight at the Venice Film Festival, Europe and the United States introduced this film, and the box office was not bad.
The rest of the films have not been introduced in Europe and the United States, but the response in the Southeast Asian market is very good, especially people in South Korea and Japan like to watch his works, and the box office in India is not bad.
In other words, the influence of Chen Mubai's films is not only limited to China, but also spreads internationally.
Once he is really able to make a very good sci-fi blockbuster, I am afraid that his influence can be improved a lot, and it is not impossible to go to Europe and the United States.
The company has entered the next stage, and Mubai Entertainment will write a new chapter.
"The scale of the company will be expanded, and there will be more and more places to be involved, Brother Lu, you will be busy in the future. Chen Mubai teased.
"Will it delay your love affair with Sister Ran?"
"You big star have time to fall in love, I'm much more idle than you. Lu Fang grinned.
"It's good to see that you have this spiritual head, "Wulin Gaiden" should be about the same, and there will be new works produced at that time, and the company is slowly on the right track. Chen Mubai was a little melancholy.
Recall that a few years ago, Mubai Entertainment was just a small company with only a few people, but now in a blink of an eye, it has become a large company with hundreds of people!
This period of hard work has not been in vain, but sometimes when he relaxes, Chen Mubai will also feel emotional.
I didn't feel anything when I was fighting, but as soon as I relaxed, I could feel the burden on my shoulders, he was not only fighting for his dreams, but also carrying the dreams of many people.
Mubai Entertainment can be said to be born to carry his dream, and Lu Fang and others have always supported him behind him and given him motivation.
"Yes, I didn't expect that the small workshop has now become a behemoth. Lu Fang also had a look of embarrassment.
At the beginning, he was really not optimistic about Chen Mubai's decision to establish Mubai Entertainment.
He knows very well that he has no background in the entertainment industry, and it is too difficult to get up.
But I didn't expect that Chen Mubai really made a bloody way out, which was really surprising.
It's just that this difficulty is really high, and I have relied on excellent works all the way to get out, and I have also broken through the blockade of several companies.
If it were someone else, I was afraid that it would have been cold a long time ago, and not everyone would be able to come up with many excellent works to open the way like Chen Mubai, and his success could not be replicated.
"When will the next work be filmed?"
"It's only a few days, otherwise I won't be able to catch up. ”
After all, it needs to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it is already the end of August, and the time is very tight.
"In terms of actors, are there any problems?" Lu Fang asked.
"No, I've thought about it, I, Xia Fan, and Duoduo will act. ”
"Don't want a heroine?"
"No, this is the comedy story that happened between three men, and at the end of the film, I will let Xiao Xiao make a cameo, and I will be the heroine. Chen Mubai smiled.
