Chapter 141: My Goal Is to Lose Money!

Chapter 141

Next.

The dusty Nie Dao came to Lao Wang's studio.

This time.

Director Nie has been busy with Fu Ke on the promotion of the new drama, and he has no time to pay attention to Lao Wang's side.

Belch......

said that it was to promote the new drama, but in fact, it was to work with Fu Ke to figure out various ways to gain popularity.

Ahem, no, how can the things of the reader be called rubbing!

This is called operating reasonably within the rules.

Step into Wang's studio.

Director Nie saw the old Wang with a shiny head and a rough head.

"Director Nie, good morning. ”

Lao Wang's voice was weak and weak, and he couldn't do it.

"Lao Wang, are you okay, I think your state is a little wrong. Director Nie asked with concern.

"I'm fine, it's just that I've stayed up too late and stayed up a little bit in bad spirits. Lao Wang took out a bottle of drink from the refrigerator, opened it and drank it all in one gulp, burping.

"It's good to drink this, Kidney Treasure, one bottle to refresh your mind, two bottles will never age, Oye!"

Nie Dao: "......"

"Is the film finished?" asked Nie Dao.

"It's done. Lao Wang drank the kidney treasure and opened his mouth energetically, "I just finished it last night, why don't you immediately find Nie Dao to come over and accept it!"

Nie Dao nodded, "Then I'll take a look at the finished product." ”

Lao Wang made an O**K gesture, "No problem!"

The two sat in front of the computer.

Lao Wang showed the edited film to Director Nie.

Just in the beginning.

Director Nie's eyes were relatively flat.

But as time went by, Nie Dao's eyes became brighter and brighter.

The whole person began to tremble a little due to excitement.

Soon.

The first episode is over.

This was followed by the second and third episodes.

The first three episodes were all aired.

The smile on Director Nie's face never stopped, and the corners of his mouth were almost grinning to the back of his head.

"Director Nie, do you still need to broadcast another episode?"

"No, there's no need for that. ”

"Dead People Can Talk" is a three-episode mini-plot.

After watching the first three episodes of the finished film, Director Nie has a similar idea of the post-production level of this show.

Instead of asking Director Nie to describe the post-production of this drama in one word.

Then Director Nie could only say: Strong!

It was so strong that when Director Nie looked at Lao Wang's big bald head, he felt that this bald head had become much cuter.

Really.

The old man of his own family is right.

All three of them are capable.

The crew invited the three of them, and they really invited the right one.

Before.

Director Nie is most proud of the two things, one is to fool Jiang Shu into making this drama with their crew, and the other is to pick up Fu Ke's copywriter.

And now, one more thing to add.

That is, the three old boys, Lao Zhang, Lao Liu, and Lao Wang, were invited to serve as the behind-the-scenes of the crew.

Cheap, affordable, all-round, and can also accept the 007 work system.

Such a good employee is estimated to be the only one in the world.

"Director Nie, how about it, the finished film I edited is still okay, right?" said Lao Wang, scratching his bald head.

"It's not average, but it's quite okay!" Director Nie gave a thumbs up in admiration, "Whether it's editing, soundtrack, or special effects, I'm quite satisfied." ”

"Haha, Director Nie, it's good if you're satisfied. Lao Wang smiled heartily.

"Then Lao Wang, you give me a copy of the finished film, and I will go to the General Bureau to submit it for review. Nie Dao said.

"Director Nie, the type of our film, I estimate that if we want to pass the review of the General Administration, it is estimated that a lot of shots will be cut. Speaking of submitting for trial, Lao Wang let out a long sigh.

Although he didn't mix in China before, Lao Wang still heard of the strict review standards of domestic film and television dramas.

In Lao Wang's opinion, it is not difficult for "Dead People Can Talk" to pass the review of the General Administration, but if you want to pass the review without reducing one shot, the possibility is too low.

And once too many shots are cut, the overall presentation of this drama will be greatly reduced.

Speaking of this, Director Nie lost a smile on his face.

As the producer and director of this drama, Director Nie is very clear.

This drama is full of a lot of blood and violence, and there are a lot of large-scale shots.

With the inertia of the General Directorate's side.

Most of the time you have to delete a lot of shots.

Director Nie rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, "I'll send it for review first, and I'll contact you when the time comes when I need to delete any shots." You can take advantage of this time to edit out the trailer of this show. ”

Lao Wang nodded, "No problem, just leave the trailer to me." ”

Nie Dao got up, "Then I'm leaving, I'm going to hurry up and go back and contact several domestic video platforms to see if I can get them to give a higher price." ”

Online dramas and online dramas must be played on online video platforms.

But as of now.

Director Nie has not yet negotiated with any video platform in China to broadcast the web drama "Dead People Can Talk" on one of the video platforms.

Because......

They give too little money!

……………………

A few days later.

Jiang Shu, who was lying in Yanjing's house, received a call from Director Nie.

"Hey, Director Nie?"

After receiving a call from Director Nie, Jiang Shu was still very strange.

At this time, Director Nie should be busy rubbing the heat on various platforms with Fu Ke, so why do you have time to call him.

"Jiang Shu, there is good news or a better news, which one do you want to listen to first?" Director Nie's tone could not hide his joy.

Jiang Shu: "......"

Jiang Shu spoke, "Then let's listen to the good news first." ”

Nie Dao spoke, "The good news is that "Dead People Can Talk" has passed the review of the General Administration!"

"Dead People Can Talk" passed the review of the General Administration.

The most perfect script that Jiang Shu expected did not appear.

But it's okay.

Jiang Shu originally had no great expectations for the drama "Dead People Can Talk" being stuck by the General Administration.

"Director Nie, in order for our drama to pass the review, you should have cut out a lot of scenes that crossed the line. Jiang Shu asked.

"No, I didn't cut a single frame of footage here, and the General Administration directly approved it for me. Director Nie replied.

Jiang Shu: "???"

This......

It's not scientific!

When did the General Directorate become so merciful?

Director Nie explained, "Actually, I thought at first that the General Administration would let us cut out a lot of shots, but the staff over there told me that the General Administration was preparing to implement the film and television drama classification system, so our batch of film and television dramas sent for review have all become pilot projects for the new system, only grading, and no deletion of shots is required." ”

"Our drama "Dead People Can Talk" was rated as the highest R-rate, that is, the eighteen banned TV series. Although it is forbidden for teenagers under the age of 18 to watch it, it avoids the problem of deleting too many scenes and causing the plot to be incoherent, which I personally think is quite good. ”

Jiang Shuren was stunned.

Nima, is this all right?

happened to become a pilot film and television drama for the rating system, and not a single shot of "Dead People Can Talk" was cut.

Director Nie, you are so lucky......

I guess I stole Lady Luck's footwash!

Jiang Shu was sour.

"This is indeed a good thing, then Director Nie, what is the other better news?" Jiang Shu asked after being speechless for a while.

"I have found a buyer for 'Dead Man Can Talk!'" Director Nie laughed.

Director Nie's tone is very kind of rushing to find the wronged leader.

"Who?" Jiang Shu asked.

"Kiwi!" Nie Dao gently spit out these three words.

Kiwi is a video platform second only to penguins in China.

"The price offered by Penguin is too low, and in comparison, Kiwi is a little more conscientious, so I sold our show to them. Nie Dao said.

Jiang Shu: "What price?"

Director Nie: "300,000 in one episode, a total of 3.6 million." ”

Jiang Shu: "???"

Hey, wait!

Jiang Shu was a little confused.

Was his elementary school math taught by the physical education teacher or was Nie Dao's math taught by the teacher?

The filming cost of "Dead Men Can Talk" was a full six million.

If you sell it for 3.6 million, this is a proper loss!

Jiang Shu: "Director Nie, at this price, we have to lose a lot, right?"

Nie Dao: "Jiang Shu, you feel sorry for your salary and shares, haha, don't worry, listen to me." 3.6 million is just our guaranteed money, in fact, I signed a gambling agreement with Kiwifruit. ”

Jiang Shu: "VAM agreement?"

Director Nie: "That's right, 3.6 million is our guaranteed remuneration, in addition to these, according to the gambling agreement, as long as the higher the number of broadcasts of our drama, the higher the price will be." ”

"I did a rough calculation, as long as we have more than one million views per episode, we can earn it back!"

Jiang Shu: "......"

This special meow...... Nie Dao, what is the difference between what you say and what you don't say.

Average collection of one million.

You must know that the most popular online dramas in recent years, the average number of broadcasts can only reach more than one million.

Will "Dead Man Talk" break this record?

No kidding!

It's easy for this show to go bankrupt, but it's record-breaking...... Let's wash and sleep.

Anyway.

This drama is bound to lose money.

It's just a matter of losing more and less.

However, for losing money, Jiang Shu put his mentality very well.

Losing money = hitting the streets.

It can be said that Jiang Shu's goal now is to lose money on the drama "Dead People Can Talk"!
