After finalizing the main actors, Tang An, who only had a few lines left, handed over the small supporting role to Hua Yi.

The script was handed in and reviewed by multiple departments, and Han Sanping came forward, so basically no major changes were made.

There is no ideology involved, and the most likely problem is only the shootout scene in the capital, or in the university.

However, the photoelectric side just asked the police not to die too much, and it was better for passers-by not to die, especially the old and weak.

Of course, Tang An will do so, and it will not have any impact on the movie.

Later, Du Qifeng's "Drug War" was filmed like that, and it could pass the review, and Optoelectronics only had two "opinions".

First, don't shoot too many shootouts, don't kill too many policemen, and second, you can shoot scenes where police take drugs, but a little less.

And the shootout scene was still at the gate of the elementary school, and so many children on the school bus were still tried.

However, it is not certain whether the final film can pass the review, photoelectric is not responsible for deletion, and a film is handed in, only if it is passed, but it will be returned.

If you hit it back, you have to change it until you are satisfied.

Therefore, the statement of "big scissors" is actually wrong, Optoelectronics will not move scissors on the film, but will only tell you the reason why you can't be reviewed, and then cut it yourself.

After all, there are so many films to be reviewed in a year, and it's not too idle to send someone to edit each one.

There was no problem with the script, and Tang An officially set up the project in radio and television immediately afterward.

The list of actors is reported, and there is no problem.

That's right, even the actors have to be managed, think about it, if Xu Jinjiang is allowed to play the ** comrade, it will be strange if he can pass the trial......

The group of actors Tang An looked for before also auditioned, and basically met his requirements, and there is still some time to prepare, presumably it can go further.

After determining the actors, the location, photography, equipment, etc. are roughly estimated, and the pre-production cost of the film is about 30 million, the post-production and special effects are about 20 million, and there are up to 10 million publicity costs.

The cost of 60 million is worthy of the name of a sci-fi blockbuster.

The specific production costs are as follows:

Director Tang An is paid 3 million, the heroine Li Binbin is paid 2.8 million, the actor Chen Daoming is paid 4 million, and Zhang Hanyu, Deng Chao, Liao Fan, Zhang Li, Tang Yan and others add up to less than 1 million.

The salary alone is 10.8 million, accounting for one-third of the pre-production cost.

All the equipment in the film was rented at the market rental price, and Tang An received 500,000 yuan, excluding film.

The salary of more than 200 people in the crew is 300,000 yuan, which, together with special effects, is counted as an investment in China Film.

.......

The final investment plan is that Tang An Studio will provide directors, equipment and about 27 million cash, accounting for half of the total investment, and share 50% of all the income of the film.

China Film invested in the crew and special effects, with a price of about 20 million, accounting for 35% of the income.

Huayi produced a group of actors + 7 million cash, accounting for 15% of the revenue.

And Chen Daoming's part of the remuneration is not used as an investment in shares.

In general, Huayi suffered the most losses, and probably gave up 2 points of gain.

This is also something that can't be helped, Huayi is the least important in the three parties, of course, you have to suffer a loss.

After signing the contract, the producers are three companies.

Next is the distribution, which is jointly distributed by China Film and Berner in the mainland, and the distribution fee has also risen to 12%.

The country's two largest distribution companies, a state-owned giant and a private giant, have at least 60 percent of their film schedules for their premieres, and most of them are theaters in the heart of the city.

gave up two points of issuance fees, in exchange for the full issuance of the two companies, which can be regarded as earned.

If it's not that the cost of copying is too high, even 80% of the film scheduling is not a problem.

In this era, there are only so many audiences who will enter the cinema, and it is useless to have an overschedule, and most of the theaters are large and empty, wasting copies.

60% is almost the limit, and from the beginning of the release, I have been trying my best to squeeze out the audience's movie tickets!

In mid-October, the crew was almost ready, the studio was basically set up, and only the people who had been sent out to find location locations had not yet returned.

Production director Zhao Lei personally took people to Xiangjiang to find a location for location shooting, and Berner took someone to assist, and every place he went to, he would send pictures of the surroundings to Tang An for him to decide.

Liaison producer Wang Zhenguo was responsible for the location selection of the capital, as well as contacting a university to shoot the scene when Chen Daoming was lecturing.

If you want to build a studio in this part, the area of a large lecture hall is not small, and the cost is not low with seats or something.

directly find a university to shoot, those group performances are directly pulled from the students, and they perform in their true colors, and there is still a salary left.

......

After a busy morning in the company, I made a detailed production plan with Xu Yanyun.

Filmmaking is more than just shooting.

Tang An is not only a director, he is not only responsible for making the movie well, but also needs him to control all aspects of the entire crew.

Xu Yanyun's ability is still a little lacking now, and it is estimated that he will need one or two more movies to experience before Tang An can let go and concentrate on making films.

But fortunately, the crew are all old friends, and it should be much smoother than last time.

At this time, the front desk of the new recruit came to report, Chen Guozhang was already here, waiting in his office.

Tang An motioned for himself to go over immediately, and said to Xu Yanyun, "That's it, you go and inform Uncle Xia Ming and Li Binbin to go to the set in the afternoon to shoot a few sets of posters, and we will hold a start-up press conference on the 30th!"

Xu Yanyun nodded, "Then I'll go to the set to prepare first, when will you come?"

Tang An looked down at the watch in his hand and said, "I will arrive before three o'clock in the afternoon, you let them prepare first!"

After the instructions, Tang An returned to his office and saw Chen Guozhang again.

"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting!" Tang An shook his hand with a smile and sat down in his chair.

"Director Tang has been very busy lately, I guess the preparations are almost complete!" Chen Guochang said with a smile.

"I'm ready to start shooting at the end of the month, try to finish filming before the New Year, so that everyone can have a good year!"

After greeting for a while, I got down to business.

"Director Tang, we have also cooperated for so long, let's quote a price, we still want the overseas copyright of "Super Body" in Colombia this time!"

"This is a contract, and the money will arrive a week after signing the contract!" Chen Guozhang did not drag his feet, and took out a document from his bag.

Tang An's two films did not miss, and together they made Colombia nearly 10 million US dollars, and after Chen Guochang typed the report, the head office immediately increased his authority and asked him to win the overseas copyright as soon as possible.

The tapes of "Shark Beach" are still sold in North America, and although they do not rank high in sales, they have been stable, bringing in more than one million dollars in Colombia in the past six months.

"Horror Cruise" was released in North American community theaters for two months, and although the box office was tepid at only $1.5 million, it performed even better than "Shark Beach" in the online, TV on demand and videotape markets.

In just one month after the official release of the videotape, it has already reached the top 20 of the North American videotape sales list in October, bringing Colombia a net profit of more than one million dollars in just one month.

Combined with revenues from Europe, Asia and other places, Colombia has now reached 200% of its profits, and it is expected that the videotapes alone will bring in no less than $4 million in profits in the next six months.

With two successes in a row, no one will doubt whether Tang An can succeed again this third time.

Moreover, Chen Guochang heard that other film companies have already contacted Tang An, and the audio-visual and film distribution companies under the Japanese Ben Aihui Group are also trying to contact Tang An through Wu Bo to win the copyright in Asia.
