Chapter 433: The Vision of the Movie
Dudu Video is now developing very well, because of the hit drama, it has a great advantage over other video sites. Dudu Music also jumped to the forefront of music websites because of the popularity of the "Warring States Seven Heroes" group. But this bit of bargaining chip, in Liao Mingfan's words, is not enough to wrestle with Yuhai Entertainment. Not to mention the hidden power behind Yuhai Entertainment, this is simply self-defeating.
It looks like an impossible battle to win. If he plans to help Zhou Ying'er, then there will be a great possibility of conflict with Yuhai Entertainment in the future, and Bai Yi has to think about it in advance, otherwise he will really kill himself.
Is it worth it to get into such trouble for Zhou Yinger? Bai Yi thought about this question, and the answer was yes, not worth it. But he decided to do it anyway, not because he was impulsive.
These industries under his hands, because they are one step ahead, have developed quite smoothly, which also leads to him not being very attentive to these industries, and he is in charge. But he knew that this advantage of being one step ahead of others would slowly disappear, and he couldn't be so smooth sailing forever.
If one day he is faced with the same problem, when he has no way out, can he still hang up without caring about himself? Sometimes people have to put a little pressure on themselves, and there is no motivation without pressure. Although the current situation is not good for him, it is not without a slight chance of winning, and he still has some time to prepare.
This is the confidence that he dares to fight. If you lose, you can start all over again. Winning can not only help Zhou Yinger solve the problem, but also do more benefits than disadvantages to the development of Dudu Pictures.
He decided to talk to Liao Mingfan tomorrow about the future development of Dudu Pictures.
Bai Yi got up very early the next day, and he slept late last night, thinking about chatting with Liao Mingfan today. Dudu Pictures' current dilemma is that it is not large enough, but this is not something that can be changed overnight. The rise of the Internet has led to the rapid development of the video industry. Although the slogan that traffic is king has not yet been proposed, Baiyi has put the 'self-made drama' in front of the world in advance, so that people can feel the sweetness brought by 'network traffic' in advance.
If Dudu Video wants to continue to maintain this advantage, it must continue to launch high-quality resources with large traffic, otherwise this wave can not only send Dudu Video to the peak, but also smash into the abyss.
Bai Yi has a large number of such high-quality resources in his mind, and what he actually has to do is how to transform them into reality. It's not easy to be a porter either. Thinking of the high-quality blockbusters that have been soft at the box office in later generations, as well as classic golden songs that can make singers famous, if these can be released from Dudu Pictures, it will be difficult for Dudu Video and Dudu Music to become popular. And how many movie stars and singers can they become popular. What actor, singer, diva and other companies can have one or two estimates to burn high incense, and they are probably all mass production.
Bai Yi was excited, and the cells in his body were excited as if they wanted to dance.
If it can really be realized, let alone the Big Six, even those international entertainment giants may be out of reach. Moreover, the development of Dudu Pictures will not only be limited to the domestic market, but will still be able to dominate the world.
But there is a looming problem in order to achieve this. Like these film and television blockbusters, Bai Yi only has pictures in his mind, and how to shoot them is a problem.
This is also the biggest headache for him right now. Turning these things in your mind into reality is more than just a sentence. Although he has experience in self-made dramas first, Bai Yi doesn't want to make a small fuss this time, so he can play big if he wants to. Since Dudu Pictures is aiming for the international stage. From now on, you need to train your own team.
"Boss, is this okay! Although our Dudu Pictures has some fame because of its self-made dramas, it may be difficult to sign more than one director, and those who are famous. For Bai Yi's request, Liao Mingfan felt very unreliable. As a director, he is still the kind of person who has achieved a lot of achievements, which is not supported by a lot of companies behind him, how can it be their turn to pick up the leaks. Just like his previous company, Time Media, there are several well-known directors under it, and I don't know how many are those who are well-known and just up-and-coming. Otherwise, how can so many film and television works come out every year.
As for those that have not been included in the major film and television companies, most of them have thrown themselves into the arms of the Directors Association, and the Directors Association is not just a leather bag company, it is supported by capital. Therefore, there are very few directors who are truly free in society, unless they are the kind of directors whose fame has reached the peak, and they can already be afraid of the influence of various film and television giants, they only shoot what they like, in order to be unrestrained, and not bound by a contract with any company.
"Can't find any such person?" Bai Yi didn't know much about the current entertainment industry, he was originally full of energy, but he was suddenly poured a basin of cold water on Liao Mingfan's head. It's like buying a lottery ticket and winning the jackpot to claim it, and then being told that it's past the time to claim the prize, and that feeling is indescribable.
"Yes, there are some, but most of them are not well-known or talented. The director's line of work values talent the most, so there are more wolves and less meat. Anyone who has a little talent will be seized by those big and small entertainment companies. ”
"No exceptions?" Bai Yi did not give up, Nima finally found a way to become a god, and was suddenly told that his shoes were broken and he couldn't go to the ground. It's really unbearable.
"There is also a category of people who have eccentricities and personalities. These people have their own insistence on making films, not what he wants, and would rather not make money without making money. It's what he wants, and even if he loses money, he will still shoot it. It's hard to get along with. Liao Mingfan seemed to be deeply touched, and there was a rare trace of reminiscence in his eyes when he spoke.
"Damn! Bai Yi couldn't help but scold.
"Boss, why are you looking for these people?" Liao Mingfan didn't understand what Bai Yi meant. Early this morning, Bai Yi came to him, and he thought something was wrong. Since the intervention of the Ande Mansion in the management of the company, Bai Yi has had fewer and fewer opportunities to show up, and even if he wants to see it, it is not as easy as before.
"I want to make movies. ”
"What! make a movie!" Liao Mingfan was obviously stunned, with a look of astonishment. Then his eyes lit up and he became a little excited. He made a movie many years ago, and now he hasn't been in contact with it for many years. But then his eyes dimmed, how could the movie be so easy to make. The investment in making a movie alone is not a small amount, Dudu Pictures seems to have a relatively large spread, but in fact, it is strong and middle-class, and the company does not have much money in its accounts. A movie with a small investment can make do, but if the investment is a little larger, then you can only smash the pot and sell iron.
And the movie is not just made and finished. Publicity, film scheduling, etc., all of which require investment in cost and time, as well as relationships. Otherwise, don't think about the box office. Even if these are done, it is still unknown whether the audience will recognize it, and if the audience does not recognize it, no matter how much money is invested, it will be in vain.
"Boss, I think we're going to take it one step at a time. In fact, we are developing quite well now, if one step is too big, it is easy to hurt internally. Liao Mingfan couldn't bear to splash Bai Yi's cold water, and he was in a hurry for a long time in the morning, just because of this. Although the small boss can always bring miracles, he is not optimistic about this matter.
