Chapter 647: Seize the Day

"Brother Mo, Director Tian just sent another version of the character sketch of "The Legend of the White Snake", do you still want to see it?"

Early in the morning, Feng Wen walked into Li Mo's office with a bunch of character design drafts.

It has been five full days since Li Mo visited Tian Xiaopeng's director's studio.

In the past five days, Tian Xiaopeng has sent people to send two versions of the character setting sketches of the "Legend of the White Snake" anime movie.

Although it was just a sketch, not a formal drawing, and the sketches were basically focused on the three characters of Bai Suzhen, Xu Xian and Xiaoqing, Li Mo also knew that it was not a simple job that could be completed.

The first day I sent the draft, took back a version of feedback in the afternoon, and then went back to convene a meeting of everyone, and finally unified the opinions, started to revise, and a day later, sent it to Li Mo of Molong Media again......

To put it mildly, the original art paintings that have not been driven crazy by Tian Xiaopeng working overtime until now are worth adding chicken legs to them......

Seeing that Li Mo didn't react, Feng Wen opened his mouth and added, "Brother Mo, although I don't have much experience and don't know much about filmmaking, I always feel that this kind of thing should be handed over to Director Tian to deal with by himself, and he will send everything to you, this is ...... Isn't that a little out of place?"

"Feng Wen, you just said that you don't understand filmmaking, in fact, at least in some aspects, in fact, you are already a beginner," facing Feng Wen's words, Li Mo smiled, "What you just said is right, at least in most cases, your statement is correct, but the relationship between Tian Xiaopeng and our Molong does not belong to those most situations now......"

"Brother Mo, isn't Director Tian's studio under the name of our company? even if you want to be named the first producer of the project he is working on now, he ...... like this."

"It's also a bit too much?" Li Mo's fingers unconsciously tapped on the table and let out a long breath, "Of course I know that I am doing this to represent the company, but at the same time, I am also using this way to show the importance of the project "The Legend of the White Snake". ”

"Tian Xiaopeng's guy is not a newcomer in this industry, a few years ago he served as the CG director of many online games, although he is a newcomer in the film industry, but after he can gain a firm foothold, he will naturally have a lot of thoughts that should not be there......"

"Brother Mo, do you mean that Director Tian will contact other companies?"

"What's so strange about this, people go to high places and water flows to low places," Li Mo looked indifferent, "Tian Xiaopeng is also a human being, if you have a million, you will want 10 million, no one comes here like this, it is not strange that he has this kind of thought." ”

"Who said that," Feng Wensheng retorted with a red face, "I just hope to be able to follow Brother Mo and Brother Zong, Sister Lifang, and Brother Fu...... Learn a little more about you......"

"You kid, you think very well, and you haven't let go of any of them," Li Mo pointed at Feng Wen with a smile on his face, "You don't want to think about it, if there is really someone in this world who can combine the advantages of several of us, then wouldn't he become a genius?"

"I ...... I just want to learn more," Feng Wen blushed and stammered, "I really think you all ......"

"Okay, I understand what you mean, let's talk about going back to Tian Xiaopeng. Li Mo Zhengse said: "Although he thought that he would not be found out if he hid my contact with people from other companies, he didn't expect that Brother Zong and several of them were old fritters who had been in the circle for more than ten years, there were many things I didn't know, and there were not many things that they couldn't get heard, like Wang Changtian of Guanglu Media, they were basically kind-hearted people, Tian Xiaopeng wanted to play left and right, it was impossible from the beginning." ”

To put it mildly, in fact, the reason why Wang Changtian didn't follow up after the celebration banquet that day was not necessarily completely out of taboo Li Mo and Molong Media.

In his opinion, although the size of Guanglu and Molong has changed, the two sides have no grievances in the past and no enmity in the near future, and there is no fundamental conflict at all.

He took the initiative to talk to Tian Xiaopeng at the celebration banquet that day, and at the beginning, it was really a matter of recovering the water and reharvesting, and the good horse wanted to eat the grass back, but after Li Mo came over and intervened, he really wanted to open it.

Tian Xiaopeng is not a guy he has never been in contact with, although the project of "The Return of the Great Sage" did slip away from Guanglu Media, but if you look at Wang Changtian's decades of experience, his decision to package and trade the entire project of "The Return of the Great Sage" to Mo Long is really not a big mistake.

The reason is simple.

In the eyes of most industry insiders, including Wang Changtian, the success of "The Return of the Great Sage" is not replicable.

In other words, strictly speaking, Tian Xiaopeng is actually more like a blind cat hitting a dead mouse.

What is the specific audience positioning of domestic animation films?

Adult audience?

Children?

Who said clearly?

Who dares to pack tickets and say that they have found the pulse of the audience?

Anyway, Wang Changtian asked himself, he didn't dare to play this package ticket.

Even Wang Changtian can completely conclude that 95% of the companies in the industry will make the same decision as him after seeing the financial report of "The Return of the Great Sage" in Guanglu Media.

In the two years before and after, the cost was 100 million, and the live-action movie was enough to release at least two at such a long time node.

Li Mo succeeded once, Wang Changtian didn't think that after he went up to take over, he would not face the original dilemma again.

And the most important thing is that Molong is not a listed company now, and its financial status does not need to be announced to the public.

And what about Guanglu Media?

What happens to the company's share price if the animation division continues to lose money?

If you continue to contact Tian Xiaopeng, you may have no return on the investment cost, and you may also have a bad relationship with Molong;

If you give up contact with Tian Xiaopeng, you can invest your money elsewhere, and you can also release goodwill to Molong;

In this case, Wang Changtian naturally chose to give up.

It was easy for Wang Changtian to choose to give up, just stop and retreat, but the hand handed out by Tian Xiaopeng was not so easy to take back.

In any case, Tian Xiaopeng's success with "The Return of the Great Sage" is inseparable from the financial support of Molong Media, and now he wants to climb high branches with some achievements, which is not only difficult to say, but also even more unpleasant, especially when Li Mo publicly announced that he would establish Color Bar House Pictures and use Yang Yu's project as the head cannon of the new company, Tian Xiaopeng naturally knew one thing: Li Mo or the entire Molong Media did not plan to put all his eggs in one basket.

Yang Yu is not only an investment in the company's future, but also a warning to Tian Xiaopeng.

Do you really think that without you, the company can't play anime movies?

Funny!

So, in Tian Xiaopeng's opinion, although Li Mo looked like he didn't care with a smile, there was really not much time left for him to perform.

If there is really no support from Molong Media, it is really interesting to say whether there will be such relaxed cooperation conditions in the future.

Time is running out!

…………

Looking at the character design draft that Tian Xiaopeng had just sent, Li Mo nodded and handed over the information to Feng Wen, "Tell Tian Xiaopeng that I agree in principle with the project he declared, and then the company's script review team will continue to follow up, and you will be responsible for contacting Tian Xiaopeng on my behalf in the future......"

"Brother Mo, are you serious?" a cauldron fell from the sky...... No, it was a big task that fell from the sky, Feng Wen was really a little unbelievable.

"Yes, Lu Yang's "Shura Battlefield" is almost in post-production, and the release of "Wolf Warrior" must be put on the agenda, and you must continue to follow up, anyway, Tian Xiaopeng's progress is not fast, you just need to pay attention to the point. ”

"Okay, Brother Mo, don't worry, I will do things well," Feng Wen walked halfway with the information, and suddenly asked as if he remembered something: "By the way, Brother Mo, what is the name of Director Tian's project, I can go to the script review department for the record." ”

"Let's call it ...... "The Origin of the White Snake". ”
