Chapter 255: Making Money (4/10 Asking for Subscription)
Chen Kun said "Fengshen Trilogy", in fact, Guo Fan also mentioned it to Shen Ming.
The original words are like this: "The industrial level of "The Wandering Earth" is not as good as "Fengshen Trilogy", it is too far behind!"
"Fengshen Trilogy" is professional and orderly from scene construction, on-site shooting, horse farm management, actor training, and even canteen management...
In fact, the so-called industrialization is a "healthy way of working", which pays attention to orderly, effective, cost-saving, and provides people with a calm and focused working state, through the establishment of various management systems, so that everyone can play their expertise in their own positions, and do not delay their energy for trivial and meaningless things.
This model should be the norm in film creation!
"And what do you think of the movie?"
“… I filmed the second "Demon Road Battle", and the first "Demon Chaos National Martyrdom" starred Brother Bo!"
After thinking about it, Chen Kun added: "However, the level of director Wu Ershan is here, I still want to believe that good results will be achieved!"
“… I'd like to believe it too!"
"Fengshen Trilogy" has a total investment of 3 billion, and the cumulative total box office must reach 10 billion to return to the cost...
Why is the investment so high?
Magical!
In fact, every director has his own label, and the label of Wu Ershan is magic.
Fantasy is a genre that has a lot of room to play, but pursues vision and color.
Compared with other feature films, it not only relies more on excellent scripts, but also has very high requirements for scenery, light and shadow, and post-production.
"Gods"...
How to say it, this theme is actually really unflattering, everyone is too familiar with it, and it has been remade many times before, and there will be no unexpected reversal plot or anything, because the ending is written to death.
The appeal of the story will not be as strong.
However, there has never been a fantasy blockbuster on the market that has really reached the basic level!
"Wuji" and "Asura" are all bad movies, even if it is a previous remake of "Fengshen Bang", the special effects and pictures have never reached the momentum that a magic film should have.
Or in other words, for so many years, China's magic movies have simply been martial arts films with a shell, and they are not at all what the audience imagined, if the Fengshen trilogy can make a magnificent world of immortals and demons, the box office will definitely be fine...
The first "Demon Rebellion and National Martyrdom" is the opening work, I wish him good luck...
……
Cheng Xiao has been in a good mood recently.
Her acting skills in "Ringing Call" have also been widely recognized!
The film critic commented, 'The most surprising thing is Cheng Xiao, she didn't hold back...'
Although the words are not very polite, it can be regarded as a kind of recognition!
And on Weibo night, she was also nominated for the goddess of the year, and the vote was far ahead!
Although Weibo Night is not an important award, it is also a reflection of popularity.
And most importantly, "Ringing Call" was a big hit at the box office!
With an investment of 53 million, it is predicted that the total box office will be 880 million, and the filmmaker's income will be at least 350 million, plus the follow-up copyright sales, after deducting publicity and production, "Crazy Call" can make a profit of at least 300 million!
According to the investment share, Cheng Xiao can directly earn 60 million!
It's exciting to think about...
even thought of a big plan to make a fortune - in the future, as long as it is a movie produced by Shen Ming, she will invest one-fifth...
When she told Yang Mi about this plan, the latter was obviously stunned for a moment, and then cautiously asked: "Can you invest in Minghui's works?"
"Of course, I'm the number two in the company... No, shareholder three!"
"What projects does Minghui have next year?"
“… I don't know much about this, but the company's main task in the first half of the year should be the movie shot by Shen Ming!"
Yang Mi on the other end of the phone was surprised: "Make a movie?
"Well, the script has been written, the project has been submitted, and it is estimated that filming will start in March..."
"What about the actors?"
"Actors, he is going to use Peng Peng, Zhao Jinmai, Guo Junchen... It's all his own people. ”
Yang Mi was silent for a while: "... If there's a suitable role, you can introduce me, I'll star it for free!"
Cheng Xiao was entangled for a moment: "It's a little difficult, he has already contacted Song Qian, Tong Yali, and Xiao Song Jia, those three happen to be actors in "My Motherland and Me"... He didn't even choose me!"
"That's right..."
Yang Mi changed the topic: "New Year's Day is here, what are your plans?"
"Stay home, it's such a cold day, I'm too lazy to go out... Don't talk about it, Shen Ming is back!"
Hanging up the phone, Cheng Xiao went downstairs with a smile...
Shen Ming changed his slippers, glanced at Milk Xiao, and asked casually, "How much weight have you lost?"
"Huh?"
“… You didn't weigh yourself?"
"You're just going to lose weight, I..." looked down at his somewhat heavy thighs: "I'm a healthy weight!"
"Yes, health!"
In fact, Milk Xiao's figure meets the standards of normal women, without a pair of big thick legs, how can she afford a pair of big persimmons?
Sitting down, Cheng Xiao made a cup of tea for Shen Ming, which made Shen Ming a little flattered: "What's the situation?"
"I'm glad! The movie is a big hit!"
"Hehe..."
It is indeed worth rejoicing!
The tax evasion incident in June caused the entire film and television investment industry to fall into a cold winter.
Very few big investments are born...
Even Minghui Company would never dare to spend a lot of money to invest in a project, the project "Crazy Call", two months of preparation, one month of shooting, one month of post-production, and then it was released.
Originally, the most optimistic estimate was that the box office of "Ringing Call" was 300 million, which could double the profit.
Who would have thought that it would be directly earned!
Although the return on investment is not as good as "The Richest Man in Xihong City", the volume is exceeded!
Let's put it this way, "Ringing Call" may be Shen Ming's biggest investment in Chinese films so far - "Burst Drummer", "District 9", and "Fault in the Stars" are hard to find...
Taking a sip of black tea, Shen Ming asked, "Tell me, how are you going to spend this money?"
“… I want to open a yoga retreat!"
"Yes. ”
Milk Xiao's yoga level has definitely reached a high level, from the day Shen Ming met her, she practiced yoga every day...
After waiting for a long time, Nan Xiao didn't speak...
"Wouldn't it, close to 40 million, you're only going to open a yoga studio?"
“… Forty million? Isn't it sixty million?"
"You don't pay taxes?"
“… I almost forgot..."
There is also personal income tax to pay...
"I also want to... I don't know how to spend it!"
"You shouldn't be able to play "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and fall into trouble, right? I don't know how to spend money?"
Cheng Xiao gave him a blank look, then sat on his lap and asked, "What about you, how do you spend the money you earn?"
“… It's very simple, continue to invest in movies, or increase your shareholding."
"Increasing shareholding?"
"I now have a 4% stake in PropNex, making me the third largest individual shareholder!"
"The third, who are the first and second?"
"Yu Dong still has his wife!"
“… Sister Qiaoqiao?"
"Yes... Don't take off your clothes yet, I'll take a look at the information!"
"It won't be long again!"
