Chapter 1107: The Inside Story of the Screenwriting Market
readx;? cpa300_4; Interest, Gao Leng is there, but investing in films is a big investment, and after the establishment of a media company, it is also a field that will definitely be involved, but what film and television to invest in, Gao Leng can't afford to 'play'. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info see ΔΔ Shuge wwん→ge.la81 Chinese┡ net
This game is lost, that is, hundreds of millions are gone, and it is only Su Su's level that can afford to 'play'.
"I can't afford to play, so I'd appreciate it if I could sit in on it and learn it. Gao Leng said modestly.
"Hey, hey, such a powerful person is still so low-key?" Su Su held back a smile, approached Gao Leng and lowered his voice seriously.
......
Gao Leng was speechless, if he left others, he would immediately tease him back, but Su Su ...... Gao Leng looked at Yu Yi with some embarrassment, since the last time he saw Su Su under the thin veil in the SAP Center, he was very moved by Su Su.
Why couldn't I control Yuzhi that day? Yuzhi is Su Su's best friend! It's so depressing...... Gao Leng thought about it, and chose not to refute after scolding himself for a few words of scum.
"Tut-tut. Su Su saw that Gao Leng didn't speak, she was very proud to have the upper hand in front of him, and walked towards the short distance of more than ten meters from screenwriter Liu, she sighed all the way, glancing at him while tsking, looking at the hooligan-like eyes.
It's really unbearable......
"Hello, screenwriter Liu. Su Su stretched out his hand, and the other party bent down and said in very unfluent Chinese: "Su is good." After an introduction through the translation, I cut to the point.
This screenwriter Liu is a well-known screenwriter in Kimchi Country, and currently has a script with more than 500,000 words in hand, and an episode of 20,000 words, which is exactly half written.
"This is part of the translated script. Screenwriter Liu's assistant translator respectfully handed over the script, and Mr. Su of Huantai Group actually found the screenwriter to talk about cooperation directly, which is very rare.
You must know that the screenwriters of Kimchi Country often cooperate directly with TV stations, and the TV stations pay the screenwriters, and other promotions are promoted by TV stations, and the profits are also made by TV stations. I have to say that the famous screenwriters in the country are very profitable. This is very different from domestic screenwriters.
Take "My Love from the Star" as an example, the screenwriter's salary is on par with the actor.
The status of the screenwriter of the Kimchi Country is extremely high, and it is above the actors, which has a lot to do with the fact that the filming of the Kimchi Country is broadcast while filming, filming an episode gives money for an episode, if the screenwriter picks a child, this scene will not be filmed, and a star can never adapt the lines written in the play, a good screenwriter can extend the artistic life of an actress, and the relationship with a good screenwriter is good, and the next book may be the protagonist again.
And the empire is different, except for a few screenwriters who make money, after a drama comes out, in addition to the promoter, the most profitable thing is the star. Have you ever heard of a screenwriter in a drama whose salary is higher than that of a star? Even a well-known screenwriter in China can't do it.
And celebrities can move the screenwriter's written lines at will. Among the first-line celebrities in the empire, a bunch of stars especially like the lines written in the adapted drama, and this environment is like this, which directly leads to the fact that the screenwriters of the empire are far less competitive than the screenwriters of the kimchi country.
If there is money to be made, there will be a good script.
It is precisely because of the high status of screenwriters in Kimchi Country that the social status of screenwriters in Dahuo Country is not only high but also very profitable, so there are a lot of screenwriters in Kimchi Country, and there are also many screenwriting majors in the university, just like their artists are like thousands of selections on the assembly line, so the artists are popular one by one, and the same is true for screenwriters: under extreme competition, there will be cow screenwriters.
Screenwriter Liu is a well-known screenwriter who can be famous in the country of kimchi.
"You don't have to read the script. Su Su put the script aside: "Screenwriter Liu's three TV series became popular through the empire as soon as they were introduced, and their skills are here." ”
Screenwriter Liu smiled slightly, but he was not modest, and the assistant immediately accepted the script.
"Make an offer. Su Su is rich in the end: "This time I want to shoot your script, every time it is my country that introduces your TV series, this time I want to shoot it myself, but the address in your script has to be changed to the address of the empire, is it okay?"
"Yes. Screenwriter Liu said very confidently through the translation: "Romance films, the address doesn't matter, the key is love." ”
"Then make a price, how much is an episode. Su Su put his hand on the table and took a sip of wine: "Is your country also an episode of 20,000 words?"
In the Empire, the script is generally counted as an episode of 20,000 words, and Kimchi Country is about the same, they have 30,000 words.
It can be changed to 20,000 words. The translator said, it seems that this screenwriter Liu is very cooperative, she also knows Su Su's energy, and the script is sold to Huantai Group, and there must be no problem in terms of promotion.
"Price. Su Su asked.
Screenwriter Liu stretched out two fingers.
"Two million in one episode, one episode in 20,000 words. The translator said.
Gao Leng's heart was shocked, this was several times higher than the price of the most famous screenwriters in the empire. The price of screenwriters in the empire is not so high, the garbage scripts written by unfamous screenwriters are about 20,000 episodes, the netizen adapts his own about 100,000 episodes, and the screenwriters who have produced one or two popular scripts are only 500,000 or 600,000 episodes.
Don't look at it as if there is a lot of money, 20,000 words is tens of thousands of yuan, in fact, the script requirements are very high, change and change, take the first-line networkers as an example, even if they are given an episode of more than 100,000 words, and the sky-high price of 20,000 words per episode, they are not willing to write: it takes a month or two to write an episode, and if you revise it, it is better to write my network, the income of the front-line networkers is hundreds of thousands of yuan per month, and the screenwriter has to revise the manuscript with this money, and he has no social status, who will do it?
As a result, talented people don't want to work on this, and those who don't have talent write a lot of garbage movie scripts. Don't blame the fact that there are many junk movies in TV dramas now, the empire's screenwriting industry is indeed a little less elite, and it is not easy to produce an elite, it is not as good as a third-tier star to earn more.
There are only a handful of millions of episodes in the empire, and celebrities can change their scripts at will, and screenwriter Liu will have two million episodes as soon as he opens his mouth, which is the same price as a popular star, you know, this is a TV series, not a movie.
The screenwriter of Kimchi Country really made money.
"After tax, the cost of publicity is calculated separately. The translator added.
is ruthless enough, two million after tax, because Korean screenwriters have a high social status in South Korea, so often screenwriters will be present when the new film is released, and the screenwriter's fans are also very large, so they also have to share the money to promote the new film. In addition to the script and the cost of publicity, a TV series that is not too long for forty or fifty episodes is more than 10 million yuan.
"The price was ok. Su Su thought about it and nodded and stretched out his hand: "That's okay, my subordinates will communicate with you about the specific details, and I hope to cooperate happily." ”
"It's a scary price. After screenwriter Liu and his group left, Gao Leng sighed: "Isn't there a good script in China? A script costs more than 10 million, so how much does this drama cost to go on the market?"
"The script written by Liu of Kimchi Country is indeed worth the money. Su Su lowered his voice: "Let me tell you, it's really strange that the country's ban on South Korea is written as a ban on kimchi), many Korean films can't be imported, so they all start to buy the works of screenwriters in Kimchi Country, and those famous screenwriters in Kimchi Country, their scripts are very popular as long as they start filming." ”
Although the empire was vast and rich, it was in some ways inferior to other countries.
It's like the empire's cartoon is not as good as Japan's cartoon, and the empire's star-making is not as good as Korea's. Almost all of the top names in the international rankings of Asian screenwriters are Korean and Japanese.
There are many famous directors in our empire, but there are few famous screenwriters, the kind that are well-known. The screenwriters of the Kimchi Country are household names as long as they are popular, while the household names in the Imperial Country are often stars and directors, and there are very few screenwriters who are household names.
This is the sorrow of screenwriters in the imperial world. There was once a well-known screenwriter in the media who complained about an old-timer in the entertainment industry, it is said that this old-timer repeatedly changed his lines when filming "Family with Children", and sometimes after a whole episode, he almost didn't use a single line from the screenwriter's original script.
And this phenomenon is commonplace.
What if you make money again? The social status is still a little worse, and in the face of stars, the screenwriter hardly has much sense of existence.
"Are you going to buy the script of Kimchi Country, is Huantai Group going to invest in the film and television industry?" asked Gao Leng.
"No, I'm just probing the water. Su Su shook his head: "The suspense and love in Kimchi Country are well written, and they are also big sellers, I want to explore the way through Screenwriter Liu, and it is my ultimate goal to buy a media company in Kimchi Country." ”
Su Su smiled again.
At her level, she will not be thinking about making a certain film, she will definitely have other reasons for finding screenwriter Liu, and the purpose is to participate in a certain media company in Kimchi Country.
Imperials have begun to buy companies all over the world, which is something that the entire world media circle knows, and Imperials can buy not only aunts, but also tycoons.
The movies you see in the cinema, such as "Batman: The Dark Knight", "3oo Spartan Warriors", "War of the Gods", "Inception", "Godzilla", "Jurassic World" and other movies, including "Warcraft" released this year, are also owned by Chinese controlled films. It can be said that Hollywood's big film companies already have many imperial CEOs.
Huantai Group's tentacles really began to get involved in the film and television industry, which is not only to make films, but to control film companies, film companies around the world.
The high-level members of the society have seen the huge profits in the film and television industry, but not everyone can come to make a profit, and Gao Leng at this time also saw the huge profits, but he was not able to make a lot of money.
I'm going to have to infiltrate this line...... Gao Leng thought to himself and thought about it. And if you have little money and want to get a big ticket, there are obviously some people who have more than enough heart but not enough power.
"Do you watch Korean romance movies?" Gao Leng asked.
Su Su shook his head decisively: "I don't watch that thing, I still watch the movie, Korean movies are much more brain-burning." ”
"I heard you're going to set up a group?" asked Su Su.
