Chapter Fifty-Eight: How to Make Money from Movies (Ask for Collections, Ask for Recommendation Votes!)

"Damn! What garbage, bloody and brainless romance movie!"

"I'll go, what is this shooting, I can't understand it at all!"

"Made, there is no logic, how did you go to the hospital after beating that street fighter, and your leg is broken!"

"What about the good fist of life and death, isn't this Nima just a good one, and the hero and heroine live happily ever after!"

......

When the movie was still playing, Liu Dong could hear the complaints of the nearby audience, and it was not until the end of the movie that this sound completely exploded, and he could hardly hear a word of praise.

The first movie was so bad, I hope no one remembers me.

"Hey, the street fighter with stray hair in it is you, it's too careless, you were beaten down after two or three hits, and what kind of bad movie is this!"

I was really thinking about something, and immediately behind me came the complaining voice of the dead fat house "I have done sheep".

Liu Dong was speechless, he was right, there were three or four minutes of scenes during filming, but it didn't even take a minute after it was cut into a film.

The wonderful fight scene with Wu Jing was cut to only a few seconds, and it was completely a trick to give people their heads.

Wu Jing had to rush back to Xiangjiang later, but Liu Dong didn't talk to him much, and left the movie theater with Li Manyu after saying a few words of blessing.

"What do you think of this movie?" Liu Dong asked Li Manyu after getting into the car.

"Normal!" Li Manyu said after starting the car.

This can also be called general, what kind of taste do you have at this time, if you give a 3 points in the ten points system, it is a conscience!

Liu Dong silently despised it in his heart, and continued, "This movie is estimated to be lost, and none of the audience at the scene said yes, I think even 10 million box office is enough!"

"I think the box office in the mainland is up to 5 million!" Li Manyu said his estimate, but then said, "But it's not enough to lose money, you can make a little money!"

Make hay?

Liu Dong turned his head to look at Li Manyu in disbelief, "My elementary school math is not taught by a physical education teacher, how can a 500W box office make money, is this movie only a million cost?"

Li Manyu, who was concentrating on driving the car, gave Liu Dongtou a trace of contempt, and then said, "The cost of this movie is almost 10 million, and if the mainland can exceed 5 million at the box office, it can recover nearly 2 million costs." ”

"Then there are eight million left, and it is impossible for the Xiangjiang market to sell so many box offices!" Liu Dong didn't seem to be joking, so he asked.

Li Manyu did not answer immediately, but continued to drive until he returned to the company building.

"Come on, I'll teach you a lesson, don't keep asking childish questions!"

Turning off the engine and getting out of the car, Li Manyu beckoned to Liu Dong.

When he returned to the company, Xiao He had already gone home from work, and the two sat on the sofa and started class.

Li Manyu poured herself a glass of water and took a small sip before speaking, "Do you know what are the ways to make a movie?"

Liu Dong thought for a while and said, "Box office, TV copyright, Internet copyright, DVD and advertising. ”

Li Manyu looked at Liu Dong with a little surprise, then nodded and said, "It seems that you don't know anything, that's right, what you said are common ways to make money from movies, but the TV copyright, network copyright, advertising, and DVD of the movie "Fist of Life and Death" are negligible. ”

"Luo Shouyao held a test screening in Xiangjiang before, which was held for filmmakers from various countries around the world, and it is said that the response was good. ”

"Make no mistake, do they have a vision, and this kind of bad movie can also be watched?"

In Liu Dong's impression, overseas copyrights are all patents of big directors and big productions, how can anyone be blind to such a three-no movie.

Li Manyu looked at him with an idiot and said, "Xiangjiang action, martial arts and even comedy have always been very popular in Southeast Asia, I heard that this time the copyrights of Southeast Asian countries alone were sold for 650,000 meters, and Weinstein Pictures in the United States bought out all the copyrights of the United States at a price of 300,000, and a German distributor bought out all the copyrights in Europe at a price of 200,000, plus Xiangjiang can also get a few million box office." Moreover, in addition to the mainland, all the uncut versions released by other countries are released, and many action directors in Hong Kong have praised this movie. ”

...

"You wait a minute, I can't remember all this, Southeast Asia sold 600,000, Mi sold 250,000, and Europe sold 200,000?"

"That's right!"

65+30+20, that is, 1.15 million meters, which is converted into nearly 9 million yuan, if the Xiangjiang box office can also recover the 200W cost, then the total income of this movie is 13 million, and the net profit is 3 million after removing the cost of 10 million.

I'll go, this big bad movie can also have one-third of the income, no wonder so many people are in the entertainment industry.

But she said that the well-received uncut version has time to see how good it can be.

However, Liu Dong still has questions, "But can those publishers really make money by buying the copyright?"

Although hundreds of thousands of meters are not much, it will take millions of box office to return to the cost, and it should not be easy for a Chinese film to get this result abroad.

Li Manyu patiently explained, "It's their business whether they make money or not, some distributors buy some low-budget movies every year, and as long as a small part of them can make money, they don't lose money, and most of these films are released in some remote movie theaters, or make discs and distribute DVDs." ”

It turns out that this is the case, which can be explained, that is, casting a wide net to catch more fish.

Li Manyu continued, "Whether it is the mainland or Xiangjiang, whether it is a large production or a small cost, there are their own ways to make profits, such as "Hero", "Ambush on All Sides", "The City is Full of Golden Armor", the main profit points of these costume blockbusters are foreign copyrights, "Hero" costs 30 million meters, and the overseas copyright alone will return to its original cost, making tens of millions of net profits, "Ambush on All Sides" and "Golden Armor" are the same, which are all affected by the overseas explosion of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". ”

"Like the "Night Banquet" released on this year's National Day, overseas copyrights have achieved profitability, and in addition to these, domestic audio-visual copyrights are also the majority, and the highest is Zhang Yimou's movie, as long as it is a costume blockbuster, it has sold more than 20 million yuan. ”

So hanging!

Liu Dong had always thought that these blockbusters were all losing money and making money, with a cost of two or three hundred million at every turn, and the box office was only two or three billion, but he didn't expect that they could make money.

After saying so much in one breath, Li Manyu was also a little thirsty, drank the water in the cup in one gulp, and said, "Okay, you can roughly understand it, this is not something you have to care about now, do you want me to send you back when the time is not early?"

"Okay, let's go!" Liu Dong was not polite, and saved the taxi money, and began to take the box as he spoke
