Chapter 610: Choosing the Right Time to Release (1st More Subscription)

Ye Xuan sat on the first seat of the company's conference room and let the people of the company talk freely about the scheduled date of the animated movie "Dream Travel".

This is a matter that needs to be discussed, so Ye Xuan asked them to give suggestions, and then synthesized the suggestions himself and chose a fixed date for the stall.

"Dream Travel" is extremely important and of great significance to Ye Xuan's DreamWorks Animation Production Company, after all, this film is the first animated film since the establishment of DreamWorks Animation Production Company, which is related to the success or failure of DreamWorks and its future status in the domestic animation circle in China.

Because once "Dream Travel" hits the street after its release, then DreamWorks Animation Production Company, although it has a strong production lineup, is very likely to be surpassed by other animation production companies, at least in terms of word-of-mouth.

And if "Dream Quest" is a big hit, then it will be very comfortable, and DreamWorks Animation Production will naturally follow suit.

Ye Xuan naturally hopes that "Dream Travel" can be a big hit, and he also believes that "Dream Travel" has the strength to be a big hit.

After all, the plot quality of the animated movie "Dream Travel" itself is very good, and the finished product produced by DreamWorks Animation Production Company at present, Ye Xuan has already seen it, although it is slightly different from "Dream Travel" on the earth in the previous life, but it is still very good.

After all, the producers of the parallel world have not seen the original "Dream Quest" on the earth in the previous life, but they made it according to the script and character creation, which is actually not too much from the original "Dream Quest" on the former earth, and it is based on the Mexican Day of the Dead.

"Let's talk about it. Ye Xuan quietly listened to the people in the company discuss the date of the file.

"Mr. Ye, I think we should put "Dream Travel" on the Spring Festival file, because the Spring Festival file usually has several animated movies, and we can compete for the trump card of that schedule. A senior company official advised.

"Spring Festival stalls?" After Ye Xuan heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "If you have a Spring Festival stall, will it be too far?"

Ye Xuan feels that there is still a long time for the Spring Festival, it is still the summer file, and there is still half a year before the Spring Festival, Ye Xuan knows that his DreamWorks animation production company can't wait for half a year.

In fact, Ye Xuan's tendency is to release it as soon as possible, after all, the animated film "Dream Travel" was produced very quickly, so why can't it be released quickly?

Maybe people in the company will take into account that there is a time process during the publicity period, but in fact, the publicity period is not dominant for excellent movies in a sense, the main thing is that the quality of the film is good enough, and then after the release, it will achieve excellent word-of-mouth fermentation, so as to be able to reap success.

No matter how well the publicity and distribution are done, if the quality of the film is not good, it will still be a life on the street.

Hearing Ye Xuan say that the Spring Festival stalls were too far away, the suggested employee didn't continue to speak, because he still understood his eyes and knew that Mr. Ye was most likely not satisfied with the Spring Festival stalls.

"Mr. Ye, I don't know what the New Year's Day schedule at the end of the year is, or the period of Christmas, which is also a very intensive period of movie-watching craze. Another film market analyst suggested.

After Ye Xuan heard this, after hesitating for a moment, he still sighed and said: "I still hope that it will be released within this year, our DreamWorks needs this film to fight a beautiful battle as soon as possible, understand?"

After hearing Ye Xuan say this, everyone in the conference room nodded one after another, but they didn't say anything, and it could be seen that these people basically followed Ye Xuan's voice.

"Zhang Hao, what do you suggest?" Ye Xuan looked at Zhang Hao, the head of DreamWorks Animation Production, and wanted to hear what his suggestion was.

Zhang Hao was silent for a moment, then looked at the boss Ye Xuan, and said seriously: "Mr. Ye, I think it's better to release it as soon as possible, because after the release as soon as possible, we will be able to test what the market reputation of our film is. ”

"Mr. Zhang, how can the publicity and distribution costs be less? The publicity of a movie cannot be less, if there is no publicity, then who will guarantee the guarantee?" retorted the publicity manager.

Zhang Hao did not continue to refute the publicity manager, he just put forward his own opinions, as for whether the boss Mr. Ye will adopt it, it is unknown, and Zhang Hao feels that he has no need to argue with the publicity manager, because the publicity and distribution of a movie is indeed very important.

Ye Xuan sneered, and then said: "Propaganda or something, can your publicity department have any good plans, or how much does it cost?"

"We need about 50 million publicity costs. The publicity manager said.

"50 million?" Zhang Hao set his eyes on the publicity manager, this time Zhang Hao really couldn't bear it, because the publicity manager asked for 50 million when he opened his mouth, this is really too much, is this to treat the boss Ye Xuan as a wronged boss?

Ye Xuan felt that there was a problem with this publicity manager, he didn't give a detailed and feasible publicity plan, so he opened his mouth to ask for 50 million publicity and distribution expenses, is this to treat himself as a wronged leader?

What Ye Xuan didn't expect was that he and Zhang Hao's thoughts would be thought of together.

"If I'm not mistaken, I allocated no more than 200 million for the entire movie "Dream Travel", right?" Ye Xuan said lightly.

At this time, Zhang Hao said with a solemn expression: "Mr. Ye, the production cost of "Dream Travel" is a total of 120 million, and if you add 50 million publicity and distribution costs, then the cost is 170 million. ”

Because most of the cost of the animated film "Dream Travel" is only the cost of special effects production, plus the cost of dubbing and the like, and the cost of post-production, a total of 120 million is not much.

"That's it, I think "Dream Travel" can be released on a Friday day in the summer, as for publicity, I don't think it's necessary, let Zhou Ziwen release the theme song, and you can take the opportunity to publicize it, zero cost. ”

Ye Xuan looked at the announcement manager coldly, and saw that he was a little creepy, and now the announcement manager didn't dare to speak at all.

"Mr. Ye, will it be released immediately? There are many big-name movies in the summer vacation recently, and it is also a problem for theaters to schedule films or something!"
