Chapter 2389: Revenge

"Amphit, now that Sky City has completed a small half of the renovation, it's almost ready for entertainment planning. Bai Chen said: "I told you a few months ago and asked you to write two scripts, how are you preparing?"

"Master, this is the script I prepared, you see. Amphitt handed over the script he had prepared to Bai Chen's hands.

Bai Chen glanced at the script: "Interstellar exploration? This is too inconsistent with the background of this era, you must at least write something that people in this world can understand, right?"

"I tried my best, sorry...... I really can't think of a script. Amphitt looked at Bai Chen helplessly.

"In this way, you will follow the story of Hai Ze, write a story about the protagonist's revenge, of course, don't use Hai Ze in the name, and change the race, the fish clan is not to be seen in the northern continent, you have to use some more conventional races as the protagonists, don't be too winding stories, just tell the main line well, and the age of the protagonist will also be increased. ”

Bai Chen put forward his request, and Amphitt pursed her lips, not very willing to take on this task.

He would rather go to the old town and wander around than sit at his desk and think about the script.

And he felt that Bai Chen already had an idea, so he had to write the script by himself.

In the past few months, Bai Chen has built several cinemas in each urban area, and several cinemas have also been built in White Lion City, Heihe City, and Dajing City.

Now that the entertainment industry is still in its infancy, Bai Chen believes that this will be a huge industrial chain, but it does not need to invest too much in the early stage, and it can still have a high rate of return.

After all, this world always brings high returns to new things.

For example, if those businessmen want to build high-rise buildings, just asking Bai Chen or Amphitt to design them will require a large amount of money, and then they will be building, and asking the ant clan to build it will also make a large amount of money.

The status of the current ant clan in Sky City can be said to be completely opposite to the previous status.

Not to mention that Bai Chen's demand for ant tribes has increased greatly, just some scattered employment, some decoration and renovation of new houses will cost a lot of money.

It's no longer the same as before, the ant clan has no initiative, whoever wants them to do something, they have to do it, and the price is pressed again and again.

It took Amphitt a day to complete the script, and after reading the script, Bai Chen made a slight revision, and then handed it over to Amphit, letting him be in charge of filming and directing.

This can be said to be the first film in the world, and it doesn't need a very elaborate script, as long as it is simple and understandable to the audience.

Amphit's filming took only half a month, plus post-editing, and a movie was completed.

And the name of the first movie in the history of the Northern Continent was also given by Amphit, a simple two-word "revenge".

The main line of the story is that a teenager's parents were killed, and then he embarked on the road of revenge, and met his confidante on the road of revenge, and finally completed his revenge, but his confidante died.

Whether it is Bai Chen or Amphit, they don't think this script is outstanding, but Hai Ze, as the first audience, was already in tears and moved when he finished reading this script.

Bai Chen can see that the shooting of this movie can almost be described as rough, but he can't rely on "Revenge" being the first movie.

Then "Revenge" was released in four cities without any publicity, without any promotion, and opened with all the cinemas in the four cities.

Bai Chen didn't seem to care at all, but Amphit, a filmmaker who wrote, directed, cinematographed and produced, was very concerned about this.

The next day, Amphitt finally received the box office of the day in four cities, three hundred Tianjing.

According to the movie-watching price, it is one-tenth of Tianjing, which also means that the number of people who watched the movie yesterday was only 3,000, and there were a total of 45 cinemas in four cities, with a total of 400 screens.

According to the number of screenings per hour on each screen, seven hours a day, each screen is full of "Revenge", which also means that there are 2,800 screenings per day, that is, on average, only one person watched the film a little more.

After knowing this box office, Amphitt was disappointed, listless all day long, and reported to Bai Chen, but he was also unable to give up.

Bai Chen could see Amphit's thoughts, but he didn't point it out.

On the third day, Amphitt received the box office record for the second day again, but today's box office record almost scared him, 3,600 Tianjing, twelve times higher than the box office on the first day.

Amphit's spirit came immediately, three thousand six hundred heavenly crystals, although the attendance rate is still low, but compared to the first day, it is already a qualitative leap.

When the box office on the third day was obtained, Amphitt was even more excited and indescribable, although it did not increase twelve-fold from the first day to the second day, but it also nearly doubled, and the box office of 7,000 Tianjing.

Compared with the investment of 300 Tianjing in the film itself, it can be said that the cost has been completely recovered.

The box office on the fourth day once again increased significantly, reaching 20,000 Tianjing.

In the following days, Amphitt has been paying attention to the box office, reaching a box office of 30,000 Tianjing at the peak, according to 200 seats per show, which means that the average attendance rate of the show is more than 50%.

But then it started to fall, and of course, it was very smooth, and there was an occasional reverse growth.

Half a month later, the average box office per day is still around 15,000 Tianjing, and the cumulative box office has reached 300,000 Tianjing.

Amphitt pays attention to the box office itself, but Bai Chen is focusing on other aspects.

"Amphit, are you ready for the second movie?"

"Is it so fast?" Amphitt asked in amazement: "It's only been half a month since it was released, wouldn't it be too anxious to prepare the second part so soon?"

"There's no rush at all, I've already started to invest in cinemas. ”

"Wouldn't it be too risky?"

"Risky? Not risky at all, while you pay attention to the box office, I care about another statistic. ”

"What data?"

"The snack sales of the theater, as well as the peripherals of the film itself, earned more than 200,000 Tianjing. ”

"That is to say, my movie has created nearly 500,000 Tianjing's income?"

"That's right, you already have a little experience in the first movie, and in the second movie, you have to think about it carefully, and the investment will be greater, the script, actors, and props must be more perfect, if you can make a profit of more than two million Tianjing in the second movie, then you will be in charge of the entertainment industry in the future. ”

Although Bai Chen has watched a lot of movies, he is very unfamiliar with the lens language, so he can't give Anfit too many suggestions.

However, for this sunrise industry, Bai Chen attaches great importance to it.

On earth, Hollywood, which is the most successful case.

"Leave it to me, I'm afraid ......"

"Are you afraid of what? Is there a better person in the world than you?"

"I don't have much experience......

"Then develop and recruit talent. Bai Chen said.

"In today's world, no one has been professionally trained, let alone competent. ”

"Believe me, there is a creature called genius in this world, they are born with a certain talent, and the development of the entertainment industry will depend on them in the future. Bai Chen paused, and continued: "And the home TV factory that I just built yesterday is also handed over to you to be responsible, and also, in the early stage, you plan a few programs first, if you can't be busy alone, you will recruit people first." ”

"Master, do you have any comments on the script of the second movie?"

Bai Chen thought for a while and said, "Just make a police movie, with the original chaotic city as the background......"

Then Bai Chen said his idea again, but at the end, Amphit's brows furrowed again: "The protagonist died in the end?

"This film can give the current residents of Sky City a sense of identity, and they have a good impression of today's security police, and death can best interpret their spirit. Bai Chen paused, and then said: "Find a few more races in the city to participate, and treat the Mad Giant Clan, the Dark Blood Clan, the White Tiger Clan, and the Shenmu Clan as villains, and then add some big fights, and most of the other races are decent people." ”

Amphitt smiled bitterly, now that he has driven people away, and now he has to arrange people in the movie, Bai Chen is really lacking in virtue.

If this movie is released, maybe the masses who don't know the truth will have a bad impression of these four races.

"Before you make a movie this time, you have to find a good apprentice, preferably the kind that has a perceptive, very talented for the lens language, after you finish filming this movie, you will go to be in charge of the TV station, and then it will be just in line with the sales of TV, by the way, about the sales of TV, you can first place large-screen TVs in several main squares and parks in the new city to open up the market. ”

Bai Chen is not worried that the sales of TVs cannot be opened, but the difference in the speed of promotion is just the difference between speed and slowness.

At this moment, Hai Ze walked in, and Hai Ze still stood on his shoulder.

As soon as Ah Ant saw Bai Chen, he immediately jumped off Hai Ze's shoulder: "Stone, I just heard you discussing a new movie, do you have a new movie plan again, I also want to participate, I also want to participate." ”

Hai didn't speak, but his eyes slowly looked forward to it.

When he first heard that Bai Chen and Amphitt were discussing the movie, he really couldn't understand it, but when he saw the movie for the first time, he finally understood what the two were discussing, the kind of shocking excitement, indescribable shock, and that "Revenge" He felt the same way, and he had watched it eight or nine times today, although the plot was already ripe, but he still never got tired of watching it.

Now that I heard that the two were discussing a new movie again, I couldn't help but be eager to try it.

"You and Amphitt are in charge of the entertainment side of things. (To be continued.) )
