The total budget of the entire movie of "Hell Apartment 2" is 30 million yuan.

'Dimension Entertainment' has acquired 'Xinmo Media', which means that they have their own distribution channels and no longer need to look at other people's faces.

Of course, this means that the cost of publicity and distribution will also have to be borne by yourself.

The company's publicity budget for "Hell Apartment 2" is about 20 million yuan.

In this way, the cost of Wedo Entertainment's investment in "Hell Apartment 2" may reach 50 million, which means that they must at least get more than 120 million box office in the market before they can ensure that they do not lose money after the box office is shared.

Perhaps, for the average small-budget movie, it seems not easy to rush to the box office of more than 100 million, but "Hell Apartment 2" will obviously be an exception.

In addition to the fact that it is the easiest attribute of a horror film to fight big with a small one, one of the main factors is that it is a sequel movie.

In today's film market, sequel movies are a very special existence, and when you hear it, investors will feel that this project is stable. On the other hand, original movies are not so reassuring.

At present, everything in China may be fine, but Hollywood is really the hardest hit area. Non-adaptations, non-sequels, are generally unlikely to receive large investments. Even if it is a big director of Nolan's level, a succession of original films has received high investment, and regardless of the quality of his films, at least at the box office, compared with many comic adaptations and adaptations, it is still dwarfed.

There has been a gradual trend in this area in China, especially commercial films with large investments.

For "Hell Apartment 2", the previous work can be regarded as a success. Although the total box office of 360 million is not a big number, it is important to have a low cost.

What's more, the biggest movie-going group of "Hell Apartment 1" is not in the cinema, but offline.

For the majority of audiences, there may be very few people who will choose to run to the cinema and watch a scary horror movie.

However, there are many people who are willing to turn on the computer at night or at some time, log on to the Internet, and then find a scary horror movie to watch.

This can also be seen in the background data of the 'Dimension Platform'. Among the many contents in the 'Dimension Platform', just from the perspective of movies, "Hell Apartment" turned out to be the most played.

Although there are not many movie copyrights introduced by the 'Dimension Platform', there are not no films that are more powerful than the box office of "Hell Apartment", but in terms of playback, none of them are higher than "Hell Apartment".

Moreover, I don't know if it's because of gender or what, according to the data in the background, it is obvious that women prefer to watch horror movies than men.

In the case that the previous work has a certain audience base, "Hell Apartment 2" does not seek more, and achieves a box office of more than 200 million, which is not a big problem.

This is almost a small goal, the main thing is that the investment risk is small.

The film production budget is 30 million, and the publicity budget is 20 million, which is only 50 million in total, and there is no possibility of losing money.

What's more, 20 million of the film's budget is to be put on post-production.

And the rest of the 10 million miles spent on filming is still the actors' salaries.

Li Ze, the leading actor, performed very well in the first part of "Hell Apartment". For the sequel movie, it is very important to maintain the original lineup, but other actors also have to eat, and if the last one is successful, it will no longer be possible for this one to get a small salary.

Adding money is inevitable.

Not only Li Ze, but also many actors in the first part, have a need for a salary increase.

Fortunately, Wedo Entertainment considered this earlier when signing contracts with these actors. These actors all signed three film contracts at one time, and stipulated that for each sequel shooting, the actors' salaries should not increase by more than 20%.

As a result, the room for the actor's salary to rise can still be controlled.

Of course, when all three films of "Hell Apartment" are filmed, if the results have been good, and the fourth part will be filmed again, I am afraid that the salaries of all actors will rise by a huge margin.

It depends on the situation at that time, if you still maintain the desire to shoot at a small cost, it will definitely be impossible to afford so much cost, and the best choice is to directly replace a group of actors, such as in the third part, the plot will kill a group or something, or simply stop filming at that time, it's a big deal.

"Hell Apartment 2" was finally handed over to the young director Ji Jiaxin.

Of course, in any case, this is also a project involving tens of millions of funds, and it is impossible to completely put such a less experienced director in charge.

'Dimension Entertainment' selected six producers from within the company and put them into this project. Among these six people, some are responsible for controlling the filming schedule to avoid the filming work not being completed on schedule; Some are in charge of financial review; Some are in charge of the administrative work of the crew; some are responsible for the construction and recruitment of the crew; Some are responsible for logistics; Some are responsible for the rental of venues and shooting equipment......

One of the chief producers, named Wang Zhixin, has experience as a producer, and originally belonged to a middle and senior manager of 'New Ink Media'.

These producers, covering almost all aspects of the filming work of the entire crew, in order to prevent the project from encountering additional risks, the ultimate goal is to ensure that the film can be completed on time, quantity and quality.

As for the post-production and editing of special effects, it has nothing to do with the crew.

At present, the construction of the crew has begun, and Fan Zhe's task to Ji Jiaxin and chief producer Wang Zhixin is to ask them to complete the formation of the crew by mid-November, and then start filming. All the pre-shooting tasks must be completed by the middle of March next year.

In this way, counting the post-production time, it is estimated that the movie will be able to be launched around April next year, when it is almost the Qingming Festival.

The publicity plan formulated by Wedo Entertainment for "Hell Apartment 2" basically follows this path.

After tossing these, Fan Zhe turned his head and began to pay attention to the project "Emperor Ruzi".

The filming of the crew of "Emperor Ruzi" is slightly later than that of "Martial Arts Master", and the entire filming process is also longer.

In this film and television drama, Wedo Entertainment has invested almost 200 million yuan, and it is 200 million yuan, because there are very few special effects in this film, and the main attraction of the work lies in the plot and characters.

This is the first time that Wedo Entertainment has made such an attempt.
