"Everyone must be curious, why would I suddenly turn around to do this project to promote the history and culture of China when "Terminator" has just won the global box office championship and even hopes to win the global box office champion of the year?" Lin Xiao smiled and swept the humanity present.

"Everyone should know that "Terminator" has a box office of more than 300 million US dollars in North America, so do you know how much box office share of "Terminator" in North America?" Lin Xiao asked.

"Less than $50 million after tax! In fact, everyone should know that it seems that dollars are easy to make, but in fact, everything we do is to make a wedding dress for foreign publishers and taxes. Lin Xiao said with a faint smile.

This number, in fact, is not too surprising to everyone.

Is 50 million dollars a lot? In fact, it is a lot, which is equivalent to nearly 350 million Chinese dollars.

Yes, Ling Xiao Ge can indeed get nearly 30% of the box office share in North America, but this 30% also needs to deduct the publicity expenses paid by Dick Group in advance.

Coupled with the high taxes, the 50 million that can finally reach the account of Lingxiao Pavilion is already high.

"Of course, the revenue of "Terminator" in the North American market is indeed more than that, but you must know how high the production cost of "Terminator" is, I can clearly tell you an exact figure, the production cost plus publicity expenses, the investment of "Terminator" is more than 1 billion Chinese dollars. ”

""Terminator is a success, but what if it fails? Don't say anything, I haven't failed, and I will fail, so if "Terminator" fails, then it will be very fatal for us in Lingxiao Pavilion. ”

"So, my idea is, of course, a super big production, but it can't be too much, because no one can guarantee that the film will make money. ”

"But I found that in the past two years, there seem to be more big productions, but there are a lot fewer large domestic film productions, especially the share of costume films is decreasing year by year. ”

"Large-scale production, large investment, long cycle, and great risk, so my idea is, why not deepen our Chinese market, or even the market in the pan-Chinese cultural region? This is our biggest advantage, but we rarely take advantage of it. Lin Xiao talked eloquently.

But the theme was never highlighted, which made everyone present a little depressed.

"Alright, let's get down to business. ”

"Just now Mr. Feng mentioned the promotion of Chinese history and culture, the meaning is obvious, our project is related to history and culture. ”

"I don't know if you have watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?" Lin Xiao asked with a smile.

"After reading it, I have to say, Mr. Lin, in my opinion, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is no less than the four ancient masterpieces. ECCOM's Yan Wei was the first to speak.

"Yes, I think so too, Mr. Lin is amazing, a "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has made the little-known Three Kingdoms era a well-known dynasty. ”

"Could it be that Mr. Lin's plan is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?" asked Ouyang Ming's eyes lit up.

"Yes, in fact, there are many clips in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which itself has a lot of artistic processing, which is very suitable for our film adaptation. Lin Xiao said with a smile.

"For example, the eighteenth princes in it crusaded against Dong Zhuo, the three heroes fought against Lu Bu, Zhao Yunqi in and out of Changban Slope, burned Bowangpo, Guan Yunchang scraped bones to cure poison, empty city plan, Huarong Dao, etc., etc., I think they are all very suitable for making a movie. ”

"It seems that Mr. Lin had already taken this into account when he wrote "Three Kingdoms", right?" Feng Hai asked with a smile.

"That's true!" Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, but then nodded with a smile.

Everyone is not surprised, after all, Lin Xiao is a screenwriter himself, so the story he wrote, from the perspective of film adaptation, is too normal.

"In the magnificent era of the Three Kingdoms, the so-called troubled times produced heroes, the special era of the Three Kingdoms, and the special political environment have created many heroes. I am willing to license "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to us for a symbolic price of 1 yuan, and the entire "Three Kingdoms" series of film projects will reach 25! The investment involved will also exceed 10 billion Chinese dollars!"

"Whether it is in terms of human or material resources, Ling Xiao Pavilion is a little unable to carry out this plan by itself, so I would like to invite everyone to join this "Three Kingdoms" series of film projects. ”

"First of all, the script of the first "Three Kingdoms" series of film plans has been made, and the story is to intercept the story of the eighteen-way princes' crusade against Dong Zhuo in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and the name of this film is "The Heroes". ”

"It is estimated that the investment in the first film will be about 500 million Chinese dollars. After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"I'll take care of the rest. Yao Ding glanced at Lin Xiao, and when he saw Lin Xiao nodding, he took over the conversation.

"The whole plan, for a period of 6 years, is to launch no less than 4 films in the "Three Kingdoms" series every year. ”

At the same time, this Three Kingdoms plan will also be extended to TV drama versions, anime versions, and the development of Three Kingdoms background games. ”

"Huaying has agreed to join this plan, and will give the greatest support in terms of manpower, after all, as you know, the "Three Kingdoms" series of films, although we will take heroes as the main body, but after all, it is still a war film, an epic film, so it will involve tens of thousands of army war scenes. But with the support of Huaying, I believe that these will not be a big problem. Yao Ding said with a smile.

"At this point, we at Huaying already have a complete plan and will fully support this project. Feng Hai echoed with a smile.

In fact, it is not that Huaguo does not have big IPs, but there are still many popular IPs in Huaguo, such as the four famous novels, but some directors of the Chinese people often make these IPs indecent.

There are a lot of films, but there are few high-quality ones.

"Of course, the "Three Kingdoms" series is just the beginning, once the "Three Kingdoms" series is successful, then our Chinese country has a cultural history of 5,000 years, with the brilliant Han and Tang Dynasties, the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons, etc., in fact, they can all be included in the follow-up of this plan. So, ladies and gentlemen, this is definitely not just a 10 billion dollar plan, but a very large plan. At the same time, this is a plan to show and promote the splendid history and culture of our country, and I believe that any Chinese person will feel honored to join this program. Yao Ding was full of spirits.

"In fact, what everyone is most worried about should be the problem of market acceptance, in fact, we have done a survey for a long time, in China, let's not talk about it, let's just say that in the pan-Chinese cultural region, in fact, these film and television works related to history and culture in China, game works, are very popular. ”

And the sales of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in the island country and in the stick country are also very hot, and even the local "Three Kingdoms" research organization has begun to be formed, specifically for the study of "Three Kingdoms", a brilliant era that was not known to everyone before. ”
