For Hong Tianming, if this documentary is made, it will be a huge political achievement for him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After Hong Tianming finished talking to Ye Qiu, he immediately reported this matter to the other leaders in the station.

As a result, three days later, Hong Tianming brought good news to Ye Qiu.

"Brother Ye, it's done, brother, I reported your idea to the leaders of the station, and the leaders attached great importance to it, saying that CCTV will fully support this project, including the expert team, the shooting team, and the communication department, etc., will give full cooperation. Hong Tianming said excitedly.

"That's for the best. Ye Qiu was not surprised by this result.

After all, this documentary was one of the few big documentaries in China that received unanimous praise in the previous life.

However, this project is definitely a big project, and even with the full cooperation and support of CCTV, it will not be possible in a short period of time.

And the cost involved is definitely not low.

However, what money can solve is not a problem at all for Ye Qiu.

Although documentaries are not the mainstream of film and television, the publicity that should be done still needs to be done.

Dianjin Film and Television soon announced the news together with CCTV.

Dianjin Film and Television will cooperate with CCTV to spend 100 million yuan to shoot a big documentary.

As for the specific content of this documentary, it has not been disclosed for the time being for publicity purposes.

As soon as this news came out, it was like a bomb, blowing up countless film and television companies and media.

What is a documentary? This is not the era when documentaries in the previous life have been completely commercialized, and at this time, most people's impression of documentaries is still stuck in "political propaganda films".

Because almost 90% of the documentaries in China are officially funded and filmed, private or private film and television companies are also involved, but there are very few.

Because everyone knows that documentaries, let alone making money, are recovering costs, it is extremely difficult, and it belongs to the kind of thankless work.

But the cost of 100 million yuan, filming a documentary, this joke is inevitably too big, right?

Combined with the fact that Big Scissors just went crazy, many netizens on the Internet believe that this 100 million documentary is afraid that Ye Qiu will pay for public relations.

However, more people are suspicious, because, before, Ye Qiu filmed the anti-Japanese war drama "Bright Sword", but the "Bright Sword"-style anti-Japanese war drama became popular, Ye Qiu played variety shows, and as a result, the spring of variety shows came.

Ye Qiu filmed an online short drama, and as a result, another film and television genre was added, Ye Qiu filmed a martial arts sitcom, and as a result, "Wulin Gaiden" became popular all summer.

So did Ye Qiu reach out to the documentary again this time?

Could documentaries also have a lot to offer?

Another key point is that what kind of documentary costs 100 million Chinese dollars?

The vast majority of people are not optimistic about the documentary that Ye Qiu and CCTV cooperated, if it was millions or even tens of millions, maybe everyone would believe that the cost could be recovered, but 100 million is the largest documentary ever produced in the history of China.

In the past, the cost of the most expensive documentaries made by CCTV was only tens of millions, and Ye Qiu suddenly raised this number to 100 million.

How can this pay for itself? Rely on product placement? Don't be funny, documentary product placement? How many people will like to watch documentaries? Even if product placement can be placed, someone must watch it.

Unless the ratings are sky-high, even if you sell them, you won't be able to sell them for a good price.

Moreover, since it is a cooperation with CCTV, then the first round will definitely be broadcast on CCTV, and it will definitely not pay any money to buy it, so the second round and the third round, please, this is a documentary, not a TV series or a movie.

It can really be described as a wave of unsettled waves.

The matter of "Love Apartment" has just passed, and Ye Qiu once again dominated the headlines.

Last time it was a big news of 100 million, and this time it was a big deal of 100 million.

Some netizens joked that Ye Qiu was too easy to achieve because of the small goals set for himself in "Love Apartment", so this time he wanted to have a bit of a challenge.

This makes those who want to make headlines embarrassed, one hundred million after another, and they don't let people live.

It's not like that's how you can play when you're rich.

Even Wang Dong, the No. 1 loser in Huaguo, didn't play like Ye Qiu.

However, who let Ye Qiu make money is too easy, 100 million product placement ads can be done in a few days, this time it is even better, 100 million will be defeated at once.

Yes, it is defeated, and almost no one thinks that Ye Qiu's investment of 100 million can make any money.

Of course, some people wonder if Ye Qiu's 100 million has moisture?

After all, documentaries, how to spend don't need to be as much as 100 million, right?

Generally speaking, many TV dramas and movies, if they are not special effects films, then the actors' salaries occupy the lion's share, but documentaries, the big stars who invite ghosts.

So where is this 100 million spent?

This kind of suspicion is still very marketable, yes, how to spend this 100 million?

For such a question, Ye Qiu and CCTV soon gave a powerful answer.

The preparation of this documentary will take 3 months, and the follow-up shooting will send 8 film crews to many overseas countries for filming.

There are more than 200 permanent staff members in the entire crew, and the entire filming and production cycle will be as long as half a year.

This labor cost alone, the travel cost is astronomical.

What's more, editing and post-production after the shooting is completed.

Suddenly, countless media reporters and countless doubts disappeared, and instead, what kind of documentary is it that uses so much manpower and material resources?

With such a luxurious lineup and such a lot of effort, it took half a year to shoot and produce in many countries.

However, some authoritative sources have announced the cost of filming some of CCTV's past documentaries.

In fact, in the calculation of the cost of documentary filming in the past, CCTV actually undercounted at least half of the labor cost, and documentaries, unlike TV dramas and movies, the shooting materials are definitely incomparable to TV dramas and movies.

On the other hand, because there are too many materials filmed, the workload of subsequent post-editing, dubbing, etc. will also be greatly increased.

Therefore, if you really let ordinary film and television companies produce documentaries, the cost will definitely increase significantly.

Therefore, the cost of 100 million is definitely not imaginary.

In any case, it is precisely because of the release of this data that the result is that the media and the public are increasingly skeptical about whether the documentary can recover its cost.

The cost of 100 million yuan, even for a TV series, is definitely a very high cost, not to mention, TV series like "Love Apartment" can recover a lot of cost through product placement in the early stage, and documentaries, the prospect is unknown, and how many manufacturers are willing to invest?
