Long Wu's mention made Su Ming's heart move.

Making a movie was just a flash of inspiration for him, speaking of which, it was because the beast would buzz in his ears every time he called, and he was particularly short of money recently, so Su Ming had this idea.

Of course, the film itself is indeed a profiteering industry. At present, the general method of account sharing in the mainland, in addition to deducting about 5% of various taxes and fees at the total box office of a film, the remaining distribution system accounts for 4-5 percent, and the theater chain accounts for 5-6 percent, which is almost equal to 55 percent.

In addition to the mainland box office, if the film response is good, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and even the West will have film companies to buy local distribution rights, and this money is the distribution system. In the past, when Xiangjiang films had not yet been introduced to the mainland, the total box office of the films in Xiangjiang was generally on the scale of millions of dollars, and this overseas distribution was even more than the local income in Xiangjiang.

In the past, the highest-grossing films in Xiangjiang a year were only tens of millions, but with the opening up of the mainland market, the plate is getting bigger and bigger, and tens of millions are purely hitting the streets.

Among them, there are not a few small Boda, "33 Days of Broken Love" swept a box office of 300 million at a cost of less than 15 million, and "Thai Embarrassment" with an investment of 30 million swept a box office of 1.3 billion, not to mention ten times the profit.

Su Ming's idea is based on this, anyway, the little money he has in hand is too small, and it is far from enough to acquire the zoo, and he can't find other ways to appreciate quickly in a short period of time, so it is better to take a sum of money to give it a try, even if it fails, it will not hurt his muscles and bones. If it succeeds, even if it does not reach ten times or dozens of times the windfall profit, at least it can open up a new way to make money.

However, as Long Wu thought, Su Ming is almost a layman and doesn't know anything about making movies.

The five most critical roles in a movie, producer, producer, director, producer, plus screenwriter, he can only be qualified for one and a half at most, and the rest is not only not understood by him, but also by no one around him.

The producer is the investor, this must be Su Ming, or Taoyuan Entertainment.

The producer is the on-site agent of the investor, like the investor, which is quite the supervisor of the construction industry, the independent director of the board of directors, responsible for safeguarding the interests of the investor, and the so-called cooperation of Long Wu is to play this role.

The producer checks the artistic quality and market prospects of the entire film, and is generally a very good director in a certain aspect, such as Johnny To, who often serves as the producer of various gunfight films. You can say that he is the director's deputy, but more like a 'senior advisor', who is not under the director's jurisdiction, and can in turn restrain the director.

Needless to say, director and editor, Su Ming definitely can't be a director, he doesn't even know how to use a camera; A good director is not only responsible for the shooting, but also for the casting task, using his experience and keen sense of cinema to select the actors he feels most suitable for the role.

Improper casting will also bring a blow to the movie. For example, the God of Gamblers, who swept the box office in Xiangjiang back then, if the two roles played by Andy Lau and Chow Yun-fat are reversed, let Andy Lau play the domineering God of Gamblers, and let Chow Yun-fat play the cynical little brother, the consequences can be imagined, and the whole film will definitely become extremely twisted.

Screenwriters are not just as simple as making up a story, but also need to change the story into a script suitable for film shooting. This requires a very good familiarity with filmmaking and a strong writing skills.

Su Ming has a bit of a story outline in his stomach, and he doesn't even have a detailed plot, let alone a full-time screenwriter, so he can only be regarded as half a screenwriter at most.

In addition to these five key roles in filming the movie, there are also scene notes, props, special effects and other people in the entire crew, etc., and the subtitles of the crew can be typed for several minutes after each movie, Su Ming can't form this team at all now, and he doesn't even have a way to form a team.

There are also later releases! Contact major theaters, arrange film screenings, and promote films, every link needs professional people to operate, Su Ming can't take care of it himself, and he can't do it.

If Long Wu comes to serve as a producer, these problems will be solved, and with his connections and strength in the circle, a team will be pulled up in minutes.

Of course, this will inevitably cost you five cents with the dragon.

After calculation, excluding the cost of one qiē, the mainland box office must be more than three times the investment before Su Ming can start making money.

The money in the world is never something that one person can earn, and people who want to eat alone often end up with ****, before friends, mutual benefit and win-win is the way to get along for a long time.

And Su Ming can see that Long Wu put forward the request for cooperation between the two sides, and the commercial considerations are actually very small, and he is a novice who doesn't know anything and rashly steps into the film industry, Long Wu may not expect to make money, as long as people with a slightly normal brain think that this is burning money.

The other party's real intention is probably to help himself form a crew, which can be regarded as a little 'favor' at the Xiangjiang Jockey Club last time.

After thinking about it for a moment, he agreed to Long Go's request.

"Su Shao, how are you going to play, let's talk about it in detail." Long Wu asked on the other end of the phone.

"I ...... Fifth brother, do you have a camera, we said in the video whether it is good or not, so the phone call is not clear. Su Ming said.

"Oooh...... ...... you wait" Long Wu was stunned for a moment, and then there was a sound of footsteps from there, followed by two people talking in Cantonese.

It seems to be with his wife, Long Wu asked her not to post Weibo, he has to do things, his wife said that he knows all day long to be a public servant at home, there is something serious, wait for her to scold back first, Long Wu if you can't wait, go to the computer next door, Long Wu muttered what I don't know how to use these high-tech You have to stay and teach me......

Su Ming's head was big when he heard it, first Zhao Yun, and then Long Wu, this group of iron-clad heroes, all became little sheep after marriage.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Long Wu's voice rang again on the other end of the phone, and the two sides added QQ.

Dragon Five's QQ is a ten-digit trombone, with only four star levels, and the avatar is a handsome guy with yellow hair and pointed face in the earliest batch, and now almost no one uses this kind of avatar.

There is also a signature file 'Welcome everyone to visit Hong Kong', which is similar to the small civil servants of the Hong Kong Tourism Bureau.

A moment later, his wrinkled face appeared on the other side of the screen, but I didn't expect this guy to be wearing a neat suit at home; There was a chubby aunt on the side who greeted the camera: "Hey, Su Sheng, long time no see." ”

"Hello Mrs. Xiang!" Su Ming grinned.

"You talk, I still have to go beforehand." Mrs. Xiang nodded slightly, turned and left the room. (To be continued.) )
