Chapter 323: Shareholding
The situation here is actually a situation where the big god is dying and the little god is starving.
Don't think that looking at the copyright transactions of those great gods, it is tens of millions at every turn, so all authors make money more ruthlessly.
In practice, the percentage of works that can be mixed in with copyright transactions is pitifully low.
It's like there are so many readers at a certain point in the previous life, but in fact, except for the previous gods. After the fourth and fifth places on the monthly ticket list, the copyright of their works is actually not worth much money at all.
Especially now, "Notes on Tomb Robbery" and "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" are still in the gestation period, and before the market response of film and television works comes out, the price will not rise overnight. "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is almost 1.5 million, and "Notes on Tomb Robbery" is about 1 million for the time being.
The total copyright is at the price of 1 million, and the film and television adaptation authorization is 600,000. It's not always adapted, it's just a license for a period of several years.
Copyright can be divided into film and television adaptations, game adaptations, physical books, online text profits, and so on. It seems that among the four or five branches, film and television adaptation authorization accounts for 60 percent, which is a bit excessive. But in fact, it's not too much.
For most works, their copyright value is mainly in the direction of film and television drama adaptation. Very few god-level works can be adapted from a game. But all of these other aspects don't necessarily add up to much of a value.
There are many novels with good results, and it is already good to be able to make a film and television drama adaptation. Other aspects may not be developed at first. Second, even if it is developed, it may not make much money.
So it's just licensing, not selling copyright as a whole. In the case that "Notes on Tomb Robbery" has not yet become completely popular, 600,000 is already a lot.
Xu Qing knows this. So I didn't have much entanglement with Jiang Ziyun.
Six hundred thousand, acceptable. In the final analysis, it's just authorization, and after making a wave of money, the copyright is actually still in Xu Qing's hands.
Xu Qing thought for a while and told Jiang Ziyun about one of his thoughts.
"With an investment of 3 million, the authorized adaptation will be 600,000, and after calculating the expenses of the crew in all aspects, there is really not much money left.
And this work, I don't need to say it, Miss Jiang should also know that it is indeed impossible to save money in the post-special effects and the layout of some props and scenes in the early stage. ”
After another pause, Xu Qingyou continued.
"Miss Jiang, don't you think this will work. Copyright here, I don't want you to spend money. I took a stake directly in the copyright. In addition, I will find a way to come up with more money and count it in the shares, Miss Jiang, what do you think?"
Even if this is an investment, copyright shareholding is also a common cooperation model. No way, in fact, many times, the funds of those crews outside are not too abundant.
In many cases, it is better to be able to attract more sponsorships. And it is not uncommon to not be able to attract sponsorship, copyright shares, and salary shares.
It is not uncommon for the actor's salary to be shared, as well as the director's salary.
In high-end blockbusters, the popular fried chicken asks for a salary to buy shares, and the company is not easy to refuse.
In fact, in this kind of small-scale production, because of the limited funds of the crew, it is more common to eventually replace salary income with other methods.
Jiang Ziyun also frowned, but soon, she also replied. "If it's about the same, it's acceptable. "At the end of the day, there was really too little investment.
It is very unlikely that a high-level script will be turned into a garbage movie.
If it's really made of garbage, isn't the previous investment entangled?
Therefore, in general, Jiang Ziyun also expects to reduce investment while ensuring the level of works.
Xu Qing is still thinking about it, there is no way, he really hopes that this cooperation can be successful. In the final analysis, the movie was successful, and what heated up was the IP value of Xu Qing's own works.
"On the actor side, I'll ask you one more question. I don't know how much money Miss Jiang is going to take out in total to pay the actor's salary. Have you considered inviting a few second-tier celebrities in such a situation?"
Xu Qing asked, but Xu Qing knew very well that Jiang Ziyun must have considered it.
"I'm going to invite one or two second-tier stars to be the protagonists, but there's really no way to do the rest. My previous consideration was to go to those film and television schools and find a few students with better conditions. ”
This point can be regarded as coincided with Xu Qing's thoughts.
In the final analysis, the funds are still too scarce, and all aspects must be deducted as they can.
But if you use all the newcomers and don't have a single familiar face, it's really a bit bad.
So one or two fame responsibilities are indeed necessary. And the students in the academy are actually a regular choice for many second- and third-tier crews. In the final analysis, these people also have a certain foundation of acting skills, at least better than random people outside.
In fact, the acting skills of students with better talent may not be worse than those of second-tier actors.
But the salary is still the lowest level.
The third-rate crew wants to save money, and the students in the college want to be selected by the crew, star in a TV series, and complete their official debut.
This in itself is a win-win situation, as long as the script is not bad, it can indeed win some students with excellent conditions.
However, Xu Qing mentioned this sentence before, in fact, he had another idea.
"I don't know if Miss Jiang has seen the sketch "Not Bad Money". ”
Jiang Ziyun was stunned, but then nodded.
"Then Miss Jiang should already know that that work is the script I took out. I told Miss Jiang directly. Lu Ziping in "Not Bad Money" has a very good relationship with me. And the current situation is that although Lu Ziping did not have much popularity base before.
But now, Lu Ziping's popularity actually belongs to a high-speed outbreak period.
Not long ago, I just signed a contract with Solong.com and other well-known domestic video platforms for the sketch "Not Bad Money".
It's not in the form of exclusive broadcasting rights, it's just that every website has it.
In the final analysis, I just want to use the customer base of these video sites to stretch the popularity of "Not Bad Money".
And in the entire "Not Bad Money", Lu Ziping's performance is definitely the best. My inference here is that I think Lu Ziping should have no problem rushing to the popularity of second-tier actors in a short period of time.
I don't know what Miss Jiang thinks?"
I just asked Jiang Ziyun, the actor of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", what does Jiang Ziyun think. Immediately afterwards, Lu Ziping's situation was raised.
What did Xu Qing mean, Jiang Ziyun reacted at the first time.
