Chapter 344: New Gameplay and the Release of "Great Cause" (3/5)
Generally speaking, the cost of a Chinese film is: 50% of the remuneration of actors, directors and staff, 30% of daily production, special effects and scenes, and 20% of marketing expenses.
Movies with a production cost of less than 100 million are basically done like this!
Of course, if it is a heavy industry film, such as "The Great Earthquake" and "The Wandering Earth", the actor's salary is negligible, accounting for only a small proportion, and most of it is spent on production.
If you have money!
What if I don't have the money, but I have a project?
Financing!
To find a bank loan, of course, there must be a guarantor, preferably within the system.
Pull the crew up first!
Then it's time to shoot, the market conditions are so good, the bank lending conditions are very lenient.
"Sun and Moon Mermaid: The King's Daughter" and "Birth of the Dragon" are two movies, with a loan amount of 250 million!
Of course, we all know that these two films were banned because they involved fast recording...
But how to play a movie with such a huge investment as "Asura"?
Financing...
Let's find a few credible companies first, for example, Yuehua and Yang Ma, look for them in the first three rounds, and in the last round, all of them are outside the circle, anyway, they don't understand, blow according to death, what are the special effects of "Avatar" and the sound effects of "Star Wars", with a box office of 3 billion, creating a new chapter in domestic fantasy.
The most important thing is to tell them that Yang Ma is also involved!
What do you think, how strong is Yang Ma's credibility!
Indeed, the first few rounds made money, and in the end it was outside the circle...
From the operational point of view, there is nothing wrong with this, you can say in advance that you are not optimistic, and then take the dividends and get out.
In the process of financing, many enterprises will also encounter the phenomenon of investors taking money and bulk goods, and it is enough to find a good receiver.
Then, when the country was rectified, this gang was taken as a model!
You also have to write a letter of guarantee - a guarantee not to participate in illegal financing...
Of course, the last two are the result, and no one expected it!
Stepping on the horse, now that the market is very good, investors have to give rebates to enter the market, who can know what will be able to do so much in the future?
After roughly explaining, Zhang Junsheng understood, and then glanced at Tang Ningyu: "This thing is uncontrollable, let's not participate!"
Tang Ningyu was a little puzzled: "... What is there to control about this? We are not the initiators, we can make at least 50 million yuan by investing 100 million yuan and withdrawing the money in the next round of financing!"
"No, Yuehua must make money cleanly, whoever participates in this kind of financing will give me a roll!
“… Got it, got it..."
Tang Ningyu muttered a few words, but still shut up...
"This matter is very serious, to say small, illegal financing, to say big, to participate in money laundering, no matter what, it is illegal, even if you make money, you will spit it out later, and you will make a commotion, why bother?
After a pause, he added: "... If you don't have enough shares, I'll give you another three percent!"
Tang Ningyu hurriedly waved his hand: "I understand!"
“… Do you really understand?"
"It's the same as the Internet company you said!"
"Yes!"
Most of the domestic Internet companies started with plagiarism and infringement, and the state didn't care about it, let them develop, fought for several rounds, and left a few elites, and then the state issued a decree that copyright must be respected, and the rules must be abided by, and they cannot be involved in pornography or politics...
Now, proper, a piece of positive health!
The rise of a new industry must first loosen the shackles, and when the time is ripe, we will put a shackle on you.
The same goes for the entertainment industry!
It's just that real estate is not easy to get, this industry is too big...
……
"You at the Same Table" was released on June 9, and the schedule selection was not very good.
"Pirates of the Caribbean 4: Stormy Waves", "Fast and Furious 5", "Skyrim", three Hollywood blockbusters are dominating the box office market.
However, Yuehua is full of confidence.
Or rather, can afford to lose...
With a small cost of 14 million, the starring role is Zhao Liying's partner Lin Gengxin.
With such a small cost, if you hold 30 million before the release of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party" next week, you will complete the task!
18% of the films scheduled on the first day are not much, but they are also a lot, and they are movies released by Yuehua.
Then, on the first day of release, the box office was 10.8 million...
directly turned the producer short and tight...
it!
The highest-grossing movie "Da Wusheng" only had a box office of 6.15 million on the first day...
The production cost of the movie is 30 million, and the advertising income of the patch is almost 12 million, the movie has no loss, the final box office in the mainland is 50 million, plus overseas copyright and other income, the total box office is about 70 million, there is no loss, China Film budgeted when it invested, and the total box office did not exceed 50 million, and then they invested the money!
However, "Da Wusheng" is starring two popular actors, plus Big S!
What's in "You at the Table"?
The director is Guo Fan, a pure newbie...
Actors, Zhao Liying and Lin Gengxin are starring in movies for the first time, why did they win more than 10 million on the first day?
It's not over yet, the second day of release, the box office was 16 million;
On the third day, that is, on Sunday, the box office actually rose again, winning 19 million...
45.8 million at the end of the first week, directly recovering the cost, and making a small profit!
What's even more surprising is the weekday decline, on June 13, "You at the Table" won a box office score of 13 million in a single day, a drop of only 30%...
Eyesight gives a prediction: the final box office is 300 million...
The eye-eye prediction is very different, and the error will not exceed 20 million, which is the consensus in the circle!
14 million investment, 300 million box office...
This Nima has multiplied more than 20 times!
There was a moment of confusion inside and outside the circle, and they held meetings to discuss the learning experience...
What is the experience of this special code?
If you want to say that it is because of the appeal of the actors, it is nonsense at all, these two have never starred in a movie at all!
Cinematic quality?
"You at the Same Table" has a hairy quality, that is, falling in love, being reborn, going abroad, and then saying 'We still lost to reality after all'...
Is this thing so profitable?
The reason is attributed to the short and tight body, and his "You at the Same Table" has too much influence!
As a result, "The Brother Who Sleeps on the Top Bunk", "Youth Without Regrets", and "Love in the Dust" were taken away by several film and television companies at a high price...
Zhang Junsheng snickered...
The adaptation rights of these songs were originally under Yuehua, and now they have earned more than 50 million!
Among them, "The Brother Who Sleeps on My Top Bunk", two years ago, Yuehua won it for 500,000 yuan, and Lay's Pictures spent 30 million to buy the adaptation rights...
Of course, Zhang Junsheng is not the kind of person who picks the door, and half of the money he earns is given to the short and tight, after all, "You at the Same Table" does account for the light of the short and tight.
Han Sanye's egg hurts, and "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party" was released on the 14th...
Purely from the logic of the market, "You at the Same Table" sold just right, and it was impossible to give up all the screening halls!
However, "Great Cause" has a task!
The reason why I agreed to "You at the Same Table" was that it was set for June, but I didn't expect such a low-cost youth film to make a lot of money...
Anyway, on the 14th, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party" appeared on the market with 51% of the number of films...
On the first day, he decisively won the box office championship with a score of 24 million - people have a charter!
"You at the Same Table" followed with 15.6 million, and in terms of film scheduling, "You at the Same Table" was only 24%...
