Chapter 435: There is no choice

Indeed, more than ten years ago, not to mention film and television adaptation copyrights, even the Chinese film market itself was not very developed, at that time, who would have thought that the box office of the movie would rise to the level of more than one billion or billions? Moreover, there was no concept of big IP back then, and a very good work could sometimes be won for tens of thousands of yuan or at most hundreds of thousands.

Up to now, with the rapid development of the film market, coupled with some capital and media hype, the copyright fees of some well-known IP film and television adaptations have reached hundreds of thousands or even millions, and the most terrifying may even be tens of millions.

And this phenomenon is still getting worse!

Stimulated by the film market, the prices of many well-known IPs have been speculated to sky-high prices, not only for literary works, but also for some games, toys, comics...... and other IP copyrights that can be developed are targeted by some capital, and this phenomenon may continue for a while.

In such a general situation, writers like Tian Ming, who sold the film and television rights of their works at a low price a long time ago, are all people who have suffered a big loss.

However, the market is like this, the original copyright fee of more than 100,000 yuan is actually considered a high price, but who would have thought that today's price will become so crazy?

Tian Ming could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Fortunately, he still maintains excellent creativity, although the film and television adaptations of his previous works no longer belong to him, he can write more new works, and because of the accumulation of time and fame over the years, his creative value is now very high.

Just like the "Deep Space Trek" that he led the screenplay, the box office of the movie has achieved more than one billion results, and he himself has already received a very good screenwriting income, and "Deep Space Trek" has also begun to publish the film and television of the same name, and it may be made into a game in the future for full copyright development.

For Tian Ming, this can be regarded as making up for another aspect of the market.

……

Although Chen Feng doesn't know much about some IPs in this world, in the dream world, he has also experienced a period of so-called big IP development, movies, TV series, online dramas, etc., many film and television projects are trying to build around this so-called well-known IP, relying on the popularity of the IP and a few traffic star actors are like sitting on the ground to attract money.

However, many such attempts were unsuccessful in the end, and then the boom of big IP began to subside, and the film and television industry slowly regained its calm.

Although some high-quality IPs can still be sold at a high price, few people will use the original IP + traffic gameplay to fool the market.

Because you fool the market, the market will respond to you very cruelly.

And now, in this world, this kind of operation of developing big IP has just begun, and it is estimated that it will continue to rise in a short period of time, however, Chen Feng, as a person who has come over, is not optimistic about this phenomenon because he has some experience in this area.

On the contrary, like Tian Ming, although his old works have not caught up with the good times, he is still actively creating new works and directly participating in the work of film screenwriting, this model should be better.

……

At the dinner, under the deliberate mediation of Wu Hengjiang, the atmosphere quickly became warm, after all, everyone is also a peer, and they have a lot of feelings about the current Chinese movies, especially science fiction movies.

Chen Feng is also very interested in several topics discussed by everyone, just like Wu Hengjiang said, science fiction movies are the general trend of the development of the film industry in the future, and it is impossible for him not to pay attention to this.

Moreover, as the box office of the imported film "Escape from the Mother Star" is getting higher and higher, everyone will have some ideas.

Among them, the most indignant is Tian Ming.

"Heh, the film "Escape from the Mother Star" is actually just the oldest routine, but the background is changed to planet space, such a theme has long been written by our science fiction writers, and now no one writes this kind of thing, but ...... It's really ...... if it's filmed by foreigners, it can still get a good box office."

For a while, Tian Ming couldn't think of the right words to describe this feeling.

Wu Hengjiang hurriedly comforted him.

"That's right, Mr. Tian, I've seen the works you wrote many years ago, and they are far better than the storyline of "Escape from the Home Star", in fact, we really have a lot of better things, but unfortunately we can't develop them for various reasons for the time being...... However, when it comes to screenwriting or writing stories, we're no worse than anyone else!"

Fang Cheng also nodded again and again beside him.

Even the two foreigners showed appreciative glances.

One of them, Mike, also spoke his mind directly.

"I think so too...... I've seen a lot of your work over the years...... The imagination is very rich, even the ancient gods and demons are wonderful, I admire your culture very much......"

Another man named Jaime next to him echoed the call.

"I have also seen some of Mr. Tian's works, and some of them have deeply shocked me!"

Mike and Jaime have been undertaking some projects overseas all year round, and they are highly gifted in languages and are proficient in Mandarin, so they can communicate very easily.

Chen Feng is also very interested in these two foreigners, because it is rare to see foreign special effects companies take the initiative to develop here.

He had the impression that some of the companies over there were very secretive about their technology, and if they cooperated, it was not only expensive, but it was also difficult to really participate in other people's production teams, and there were really few people like Mike and James.

In fact, Mike and Jaime are also helpless, their company over there is too poor, and they can only find a way to take over some other business in order to maintain operations.

Moreover, although their technology is not as good as the real large-scale special effects companies of the trench house, relatively speaking, they are indeed much better than many other places, plus they have always carried the aura of the trench house, so in some places overseas, it is easier for them to make money.

Although their behavior is completely despised in the local area of the Trench House, and they may even be directly kicked out of the film industry ecological chain of the Trench House in the near future, there is no way, making money to survive is the most important thing, and they have no choice.

Chen Feng listened with great interest to Mike, Jaime and Wu Hengjiang, Tian Ming and Fang Cheng talking about some industry insiders about science fiction film production, which involved a lot of secrets about the entrenchment house, and everyone listened to it very interestingly.

For example, a film like "Escape from the Mother Star", if it is a film produced locally by Trench House, the related special effects production cost may only be tens of millions, but if this is a work that is not produced by Trench House, then the same company, the same special effects, the related costs may be hundreds of millions!

This phenomenon is just a drop in the ocean!
