Remember [Martial Arts β™‚ Γ· in a second? Textβ˜†η½‘.], update fast, no pop-ups, free to read!

The production of TV series is not as refined as movies, and the cost of each episode cannot be 100,000, even if it is a 40-episode long drama, it will have an investment budget of 4 million. This will be put in the future, and this amount of money is not enough for the salary of a leading actor.

Generally, small film and television companies produce two dramas a year, and if they sell well, it is not a big problem to make a few million, and it is already a very good performance. It is precisely because the cost of shooting, actors, and publicity are relatively low. At this time, many cultural media and advertising companies began to enter the TV production industry.

It also created a golden age of TV dramas, and the companies that remained after the capital game of big waves and big fish eating small fish have grown into giant crocodiles in the industry

Marco is still quite satisfied with the investment funds in the first phase, and there are indeed fewer funders who dare to invest money now, and most of the film and television companies are also shooting with their own funds.

The two chatted for a while, and Marco left alone, and he definitely couldn't give any results that day. There are rules within the system, and it will inevitably cause criticism if he doesn't deal with the things behind him, and Chen Bo has not mentioned his treatment yet, because he has not yet reached the final step.

Liang Wenjing, the producer of Emei Film Studio, is the next person Chen Bo will face.

His first impression is that he is thin, his half-length hair is very flowing, and he has the air of an artist, and the film is indeed called the seventh art after architecture, music, painting, sculpture, poetry, and dance, and it is also compatible with the first six, which is a poem written in the language of the lens.

Emei is one of the seven major film studios in the country, and Emei can get its hands on "Crow. "Piece War" and "Jiao Yulu" two films.

Tongyanying, Changying, Shangying, Xiying, Xiaoxiang, and Zhujiang are all state-level film studios, which are specially used to produce feature films. The responsibility of Bayi Film Studio is to produce military stories, and this theme is not easy for private film and television companies to touch.

Yanying Studio and Changying Studio have taken the lead in reform, Yanying has established Huaxia Film Group with resource advantages, and is the only company in the country with the right to import films, and CCTV's 6 sets of movie channels are also owned by Huaying Group. Changying Group relied on the transfer of 21 hectares of the original factory land, obtained 300 million yuan in cash plus loans, and began to engage in the tourism project of Changying Century City.

Since 95 years, the screening system of films is no longer underwritten by the state, and all are produced and distributed by each film studio itself, earning profits from the box office. The dream of various film studios has come to an end, and they are even burdened with huge debts, and the current film market can be said to be a Great Depression.

Even though "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has received 10 Oscar nominations and 4 awards. But it was also a joint production between Sony Columbia and Taiwan's Pictures, and the filming location was in China, and it had nothing to do with the mainland film industry.

Although the other film studios have not been reorganized, they are not much better, especially the three film studios with regional characteristics in Emei, Xiaoxiang and Zhujiang, which originally had no bright spots at all, and now it is even more difficult, not to mention that there are many provincial-level studios in China.

"Don't know what you want to do?" Liang Wenjing didn't like to procrastinate, and directly skipped the temptation.

"The first theme is in line with the market and attaches importance to screenwriting. Second, cooperate in filming to reduce risk. Third, the film is commercialized and entertained. Chen Bo was also very direct and concisely said the plan in his heart.

"What about your strengths?" Liang Wenjing asked again.

"Internet! In the future, young people will spend more of their leisure and entertainment time on the Internet, and I have the largest Internet platform in the country. There is also an entertainment agency that does not need to worry about the problems of the actors. Chen Bo's face was not red, and his heart was bragging. If the other party sees through it, then I will say that it is the largest social platform Tencent QQ, and this explanation is not wrong.

"It's very thoughtful, but now the film industry is very sluggish, and many theaters make a living by holding Jiangnan silk exhibitions and selling sweaters. It's hard to make money making movies now, and there's a lot of way to do it. There are a lot of tricks in the production, distribution, and release scheduling. ”

"That's why I need professionals to help me operate, and a temporary downturn doesn't mean that the future is dark."

"Very well, although this sounds so false, at least there is some sincerity. How much do you plan to contribute? ”

"Is 20 million enough?" Chen Bo calculated that the BP fund left him about 43 million yuan, not only to make TV series, but also to make movies, and to get a record company, is his step a little too big?

"It depends on what you're going to do, say more, say less." Liang Wenjing was not surprised, and said lightly.

"You are more professional in film production than me, and I am an expert in business operations. You can't become a fat person by eating in one bite, I hope you can form a team and take your time step by step. ”

The impression he gave Chen Bo was that he didn't play false, and he was very real. After discussing their views on the future of the film industry for a while, their ideas even coincided a little. Chen Bo comes more from his own memory understanding, and he has advanced ideas, which can only be said to be a professional sense of smell.

Liang Wenjing graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and later studied film director, and has worked in Yanying and Emei. Although he sat in the position of producer, they were all some scenes that were not famous, and some things were not up to him to choose.

If his personality can be mellow, maybe his future development will not be lower than others, and he will not be unknown in the future. Of course, the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. His integrity may be a helping point for him in the future.

"I need time and space, and if you want to make money right away, I'm incompetent." Liang Wenjing said in a showdown.

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious. I will give you great autonomy. ”

After this understanding, Chen Bo decided in his heart to include him as a member of his team, since both parties have intentions, it is a hit.

Wait two more days to call Marco and sit down together to discuss the details, TV series and movies go hand in hand. Tens of millions of dollars thrown in, even if a stone is thrown into the river, there must be a sound, right?

Although the two people recommended by Sister Hua are not qualified, they are definitely the jade of the Shaozhuang faction, if they can be provided with a better platform, I believe that they will always have a place in this industry in the future.

For the development of Galaxy Entertainment, although Chen Bo is not in the nature of playing tickets, he also did not put his main energy here. After all, this industry still needs a professional team to operate. The Internet is a big platform, and he will pull other traditional industries into this platform to make the cake bigger. Someone provides content, and someone has to share it.

Manipulators hiding behind the scenes are sometimes more entertaining than glamorous front performers.

Chen Bo intended to let them go back and think about it, and if there were any problems, they should make it clear in advance.

The team of the beautiful music network has also arrived in Yanjing City one after another, and he also needs to arrange it here.

Although the entire company was separated from Skynet and moved to Yanjing, the wishes of employees should also be respected. Not everyone wants to come to this place with four distinct seasons, after all, it is not as warm as in the south, and some people who are far from home can be regarded as uprooted.

Therefore, this time, with the addition of the employees who came to Yanjing to the front station in the early stage, there are only twelve or thirteen people in total.

Fortunately, Yanjing City is the cultural and educational center of China, and it is also the place where domestic Internet companies are most concentrated, and the recruitment problem can be easily solved. However, many Internet companies in Zhongguancun are laying off employees, and other Internet companies have no plans to recruit people now, so this advantage can only be taken advantage of by Chen Bo.

The beautiful decoration style here, very artistic, even the outer walls are specially invited to do graffiti, the design reference in the house is to do the details of the beautification on the basis of the original plant, there is a kind of retro nostalgic style of the big industrial era.

CD racks, old cassette recorders, cassette tapes, and looted black-and-white televisions are all unique. In order to save space and aesthetics, even the computer monitor has been replaced with more than 3,000 LCD LCDs, and it is only 15 inches, which feels a little painful to think about.

The whole building is divided into two floors of LOFT large bays, with high spacing, and the perimeter of the better environment is knocked open by the fence and installed with double-layer floor-to-ceiling windows. After work, I sat at the small round table by the window, holding a cup of fragrant coffee and pulling a book from the bookshelf next to it, and read it slowly.

It is definitely the best choice for literary and artistic youth, and the team does need literary and artistic youth to join, and specially recruited students who graduated from art and music academies to be responsible for the design and editing of the entire website.

Although sometimes I write sentences that moan without illness, I like this feeling of sadness and sadness in my adolescence. And they can also discover some unpopular niche music and drive the development of the music community.

On the afternoon before the official operation of the beautiful music network in Yanjing, everyone sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor to start the first mobilization meeting.

Chen Bo only introduced himself, then sat quietly on the side, and left the rest to Guan Xin to arrange. How long can he stay in Yanjing? Most of the time is not in Pengcheng, and letting her adapt early is also a kind of exercise for her.

The reason why he is still holding the position of CEO is because he is afraid that other shareholders are worried that she is inexperienced and will not be able to hold on at a critical moment. Second, the research and development of MP3 music players also needs him to keep an eye on, which has gone beyond the scope of the network and software.

Ye Tianhao, who understands the electronics industry, is busy tinkering with his broken mobile phone, so he can only be Chen Bo a monk halfway, and he will carry it hard, and he will not be at ease if he is fully responsible for Lenovo.
