When Zhuo Ziyuan returned home, Li Xinyuan had already returned to the room alone, Xu Xuehua was still waiting for him in the living room, Zhuo Ziyuan knew that this sister had something to talk to him.

Xu Xuehua looked for Zhuo Ziyuan to have both business and private affairs, and when she came to the study on the second floor, she said bluntly, "Let's talk about business first, in the past month or so, you have never asked me what to do, how is the progress?"

"What else am I worried about Sister Xue?" asked Zhuo Ziyuan rhetorically.

"You have a big heart, but how to say, I also have to report to you, after all, you are the boss, this month I have basically figured out the cost of film and television production and the price of external sales, I have also established contacts with most of the domestic film and television companies, and I have also contacted some of them, when these production companies need to find investors in the future, I think we Hua Hin Entertainment should be put in the list of considerations. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Xuehua paused and looked at Zhuo Ziyuan, who simply nodded to show that he understood.

"Let me tell you about the production companies I contacted, I met with a total of 8 companies, which are..."

Zhuo Ziyuan raised his hand to interrupt Xu Xuehua's narration, if he told so many details, when would he have to talk about it, "Sister Xue, you don't have to tell me about such details, I just need to know the general progress." ”

Xu Xuehua shook it, she really didn't know what to say about Zhuo Ziyuan's letting go attitude, she couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart, 50 million US dollars, this is not a small amount of money, in China, individuals with such a huge amount of liquidity can really be said to be a handful, but Zhuo Ziyuan gave it directly, didn't even ask what to do, just gave a general direction, and the rest depends on her own play, how much trust does this have to dare to do things like this.

"Okay, that's all for business?" Xu Xuehua asked tentatively.

"Don't, I still want to know more, didn't you say that you know the price? Then tell me, how much is the production cost of general film and television, and what will be the approximate price if we buy out the network copyright now?" Zhuo Ziyuan actually wants to use this price to understand how long Hua Hin Entertainment's money can last.

"Now the cost of domestic films ranges from hundreds of thousands to one or two million, mainly depending on the actor's salary and post-production cost, this cost is not comparable with the cost of foreign films, such as the cost of actors, top-level, king-level, about four or five million, to the next line of actors, one or two million, and then hundreds of thousands, like some small-budget movies, maybe the leading actor is only a second-tier actor, then the cost of the whole movie is basically only a few million, but such a movie, the box office is difficult to guarantee, of course, it does not mean that there will be a good box office with first-line stars participating, the film market in Xiangjiang in the first two years was very bleak, and there are few movies that can make money。 "Xu Xuehua's work for a month is not done in vain, and these things are made up by hand.

Zhuo Ziyuan, who was listening on the side, was a little uneasy, because Xu Xuehua talked about these costs, salaries and other things, he felt that it was so low, which was different from his cognition, but thinking about the era he was in now, he was relieved, yes, how many assets is the richest man in China now, and how many assets are in the future, this is indeed not comparable, but the production cost and salary are unexpectedly low, which shows that the money he invested in Hua Hin Entertainment is enough for a long, long time, and he even wants to take out some of it to invest in the vision fund, of course, he is just thinking about it now。

"The production cost of TV series is actually similar to that of movies, mainly depending on the length of the TV series, the main cost is the actor's salary, the current top salary is basically hundreds of thousands of episodes, and the general supporting roles are hundreds of thousands of dollars per episode, but on the whole, a TV series starring top stars, the investment of 20 million or 30 million is normal, like the Condor Heroes, Heaven and Dragon Slayer, these TV series cost tens of millions, of which the actors are the majority. ”

Speaking of this, Zhuo Ziyuan has a general understanding of the cost of film and television production, but the most critical thing is still not said, "Then what kind of price do we need to buy out the network copyright?"

For this question, Xu Xuehua thought for a while, " In fact, on the issue of network copyright, I consulted several people in the industry, and now there is no price standard for this piece in the market, because no one has raised the issue of network copyright at all, let alone buying and selling, through a variety of understanding and summary, the price of buying out the copyright will definitely be linked to the movie box office and the ratings of TV series, I estimate that the general film network copyright, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands is enough, the top ten domestic box office, I estimate that it can be done within one million, TV series, maybe hundreds of yuan to thousands of dollars per episode, now no one pays attention to the network copyright at all, if it is not for your repeated emphasis, to buy the network copyrightFrom my point of view, I definitely won't spend this money. ”

Indeed, from Xu Xuehua's point of view, she can't understand what is the use of online copyright, and these movies want to be watched on the Internet? Isn't it all rotten now, no one cares at all, and watching movies on the Internet, watching TV series, you have to download it first, a movie is downloaded for a few hours, or even more than ten hours, that is doomed, online viewing is not the mainstream, the mainstream is still in the cinema and TV, so these movies are already in an idle state after earning enough box office and TV station broadcast rights, and there can be tens of thousands of additional income, which is a new income point, not to mention, which production company will only have one movie or one TV series, there is a lot of inventory, and it is also a lot of income when it comes together, you know, although the box office of the movie is often tens of millions of dollars, but the real profit in the hands of the producer, a movie, can have a net profit of 10 million, which is already burning high incense, Amitabha.

Zhuo Ziyuan calculated in his heart, if the average episode of TV is only 1,000 yuan, the average of 30 episodes of that drama, that is, only 30,000, then 50 million US dollars can buy 10,000 TV series, and the TV series added up in the first 20 years are not so much, and then converted into movies, if the average buyout price of a movie is 300,000, then you can also buy a thousand movies, in the same way, all the domestic movies in the past 20 years combined, whether there is this number is not necessarily, not to mention, Zhuo Ziyuan has set a big tone from the beginning, the purchase of all film and television copyrights, starting from 90, because in the previous movies or television, that kind of shooting effect, In another ten years, it is estimated that no one will be able to appreciate it, so that if you calculate it, you will buy out all the domestic film and television network copyrights, and Hua Hin Entertainment's money will be enough.

"If that's the case, then try to buy as many online copyrights as possible for these movies and televisions, not only to contact the production company, many TV series are filmed and produced by major TV stations, you also have to start to contact the TV station, according to the box office and ratings of the pricing, if you can package a group buy, try to package a group buy, your first task now is to do your best to buy as many copyrights, and at the same time, of course, you have to take into account the investment in the movie. In addition, we have to buy domestic ones, and we have to find a way to buy them abroad, and you have to include this in the planning, I hope that within a year, Hua Hin Entertainment's tentacles can be extended to Europe and the United States, classic movies, American dramas, and British dramas can be taken into account. "Zhuo Ziyuan since he was ready to establish a video website,Began to investigate,He knows that there is currently no online broadcasting platform in the world,Like the United States,They are now the mainstream of using the way of renting and selling video discs for the dissemination of film and television,Zhuo Ziyuan conceived at the beginning of his rebirth in the stock portfolio,In addition to Penguin is a United States imperialist enterprise called Netflix,The company's current main business is online rental and sales of DVDs,This is also the largest film and television website of the United States and has been listed。 In fact, renting DVDs is also very popular in China now, but piracy is popular.

Some films in Europe and the United States have much higher production costs than in China, and the salary of celebrities alone is a world of difference; moreover, the current situation in China, in fact, there are a lot of pirated DVDs, and the production companies of the US imperialists can't control this at all, do you really think this is necessary? This investment is not small. ”

Europe and the United States pay attention to copyright, piracy is generally impossible to appear on a large scale, and the copyrights of these films and television must be relatively expensive, but the current situation in Europe and the United States, it is also obvious that they will not pay too much attention to network copyright at all, Netflix's online sales and Zhuo Ziyuan's planned network broadcast are completely two different concepts, Zhuo Ziyuan needs the right to play online, and burning into DVD sales are completely different things, it is very likely that these network broadcast rights are also about the same price as in China, but the unit of currency needs to be changed, which is also the reason why Zhuo Ziyuan did not let Xu Xuehua immediately start the European and American markets, it is really limited financial strength, and the emergence of online video playback, there should still be some time, so there is still some time left for Zhuo Zi to go away and plan.

As for what Xu Xuehua said, those people in the United States can't control domestic affairs, Zhuo Ziyuan actually agrees, he has his own capital, so his company doesn't necessarily need to be listed for financing, and he doesn't need to realize shares, the problem is, in the future video website market, it is impossible for one to dominate, there will definitely be domestic websites that will be listed on the US imperial, at that time, the content of their websites is bought with money, how can it be possible to watch other websites use pirated resources arbitrarily, these websites will definitely fight piracy at any cost, this is what Zhuo Ziyuan has to face, he can ignore the laws of the US imperialists, but he can't ignore the laws of Huaxia, andEven if there are no websites listed on the US imperialists, for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries and other considerations, the country's crackdown on piracy will not be loosened, which will have to wrestle with the state apparatus, Zhuo Ziyuan is unthinkable.

"It's okay, take your time, how much money you have to do as much as you want, now the 50 million in your hand is used for domestic copyright transactions, if you are ready to hit the international market in the future, I will naturally find a way to continue to provide funds." Zhuo Ziyuan said.

"That's good, this money is not only used to buy copyrights, we have fully entered the entertainment industry, and it is inevitable to cultivate our own artists, set up our own production teams, and make our own movies. Xu Xuehua was a little more relieved, although Zhuo Ziyuan gave a lot of money, but if she really wanted to do it, she didn't know how long she could last, after all, she really didn't know how long she could buy out the Internet copyright.

"Yes, not only movies, TV series, variety shows, step by step, we have to make our own. "The concept of popular variety shows,Zhuo Ziyuan's mind can be said to grab a lot,As a 35-year-old otaku uncle,Variety shows are an indispensable thing to kill time,The competition for users of video sites in the future will depend on the attractiveness of self-made content,This is Zhuo Ziyuan's experience,These things can be laid out in advance。
