Chapter 217: Plans for the Coming Year
After talking about the schedule of the God of Gamblers, they began to discuss the plan for next year, and everyone unanimously set their eyes on Yingshuai.
Yingshuai also felt aggrieved, they all watched me do it, my buddy is just a director.
However, the eyes of the masses are bright, it doesn't matter if the big boss doesn't show up, and it really has to be made to make plans for the coming year.
The hero first combed through the results, not to say that he didn't know, but to be shocked.
This year, the average box office of the company's five films has also exceeded one billion, and the box office revenue of Everbright has exceeded two billion, deducting operating and production costs, and the net profit has exceeded one billion.
The movie has achieved the company's profitability, and the TV series is pure earning, the big time Condor plus Huang Feihong's TV series version, the ratings are good, and the ratings are the top three in the Ming ratings, plus the copyright income of other Asian countries, the income of the TV series is actually not weaker than the movie.
And the most important thing is that the company has taken a big step towards listing, leaving only the final roadshow step, which is expected to be listed on the Jianye Stock Exchange in the middle of next year.
All the shareholders present here are shareholders of the company, according to the current valuation and profitability of the company, it is estimated that they are billions of billionaires, even Li Xingyun, who was born in a wealthy family, is the first time to have such a large amount of wealth of his own, and his eyes are full of excitement.
"Next year, we will continue to walk on two legs, continue to strengthen the two cores of movies and TV series, and I still think about the three of us in terms of movies.
Xiaoxiao is still focusing on youth films for the time being, this is a story framework that I came up with, you first see if it is suitable, and you discuss the specific script with the screenwriters. ”
Ying Shuai said and handed over the outline of the story to the three people, but the outline of just one or two thousand words, the three people are all industry insiders, and they have no shortage of speed reading ability, and they can read it in about ten minutes.
"This, will there be a problem with the handsome character setting, the male protagonist is too meaty, and the female protagonist is too strong, although the final reversal of the story moves in my heart, but will the audience like such a savage woman?"
"Hehe, don't you think every man is masochistic?" said Yingshuai slowly.
"How could it be?" Lao Cui confidently met He Xiaoxiao's blade-like eyes, and was suddenly stunned, but he felt that what Yingshuai said made sense.
Seeing this, Yingshuai only secretly wished, this fat man's fat can resist him for a while, Cui Fatty, you can ask for more blessings at night.
"I like this story very much.,It's not unusual for a girl who has lost her lover to do crazy things.,The name of the book is also good "My Sassy Girlfriend", I took it. He Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
"Don't you like it, but I modified the character design according to your Director He Da. "The handsome man secretly slandered.
The four of them unanimously agreed to finalize the first project, and Yingshuai continued.
"Lao Cui, I want you to take over the God of Gamblers series, Huang Feihong series I want to put it on hold for the time being, three movies in a year and a half are a bit too frequent, and the audience will also get bored, these are two story outlines. ”
The two stories are decent, the God of Gamblers series is going to the box office, the whole story is OK as long as it is wonderful and complete, Yingshuai didn't want to have any innovation, so he copied the two sequels of the original time and space, but the unreasonable plot was modified.
The trilogy of the original time and space is actually the work of Fat Mantis Circle Money, and it was hurriedly filmed, and there were even contradictions in the plot before and after, so this time the hero made an overall modification, and the story became a lot smoother.
Of course, the God of Gamblers series still depends on whether the first part is successful, and then it will consider whether the projects of the last two parts will be launched, but this one is not in a hurry, and it is just using this time to improve the script.
"In addition, we have two film contracts with Cheng Long, I want Zhang Long to be in charge of the second part of the Flying Eagle Project, Lao Cui, you can help me, I will also help, this is his first time directing, this is the outline. ”
Zhang Long, as the royal commander of the handsome, has participated in almost all the action movies of the company, the young man is willing to learn, and every time he will ask for various shooting and directing skills on the set, although he lacks creativity, but the skills of the director of action movies are exercised, so the handsome decided to hand over the project of Operation Eagle to him, and all types of directors in the company need to be trained.
After everyone had no opinion, Yingshuai said: "As for me, I will start a new series, which I call a magic drama." ”
Looking at Li Xingyun and the others who were confused, Yingshuai knew that there was no chatting in this world.
He had to patiently explain: "It's similar to Journey to the West, but it's not an upgrade to fight monsters, the core of this series is still about a love word, about the story of a scholar and a female ghost... ”
He looked through the script while talking to everyone, and this script was obviously much more detailed than just now, because this was completely extracted by Yingshuai, and he not only harvested wealth but also a lot of experience points in the battle of the Japanese Kingdom, but he didn't mind being lavish.
"A Chinese Ghost Story, this story is as moving as its name, but how difficult is it to implement the technology?" Li Xingyun pointed out the key to the problem at once.
The reason for the success of A Chinese Ghost Story in the original time and space is not only the moving story, the excellent performance of the actors, but also the whimsical fantasy action scenes created by Xu Laowei and Chen Xiaodong are the key to success.
The film technology of this world is obviously much behind the original time and space, and Uncle Ying's zombie films before were also about ghosts, but the scenes are still mostly interpreted with makeup and sets.
And Yingshuai's script is also attached to his hand-drawn storyboard scenes, which are full of magical pictures, which obviously cannot be achieved by relying on the set.
"I've been experimenting with ILM for a long time, and I'm going to use stop-motion animation technology with miniatures to achieve it, and now we've made a lot of progress, and this is a part of our test shooting. ”
Saying that, Yingshuai clicked on the screen and played it, but it was just a few tens of seconds of fighting scenes, and the long hair of the old demon of Montenegro suddenly paved the picture, entangled and swallowed people in their mouths.
But in this world that relies on WIA to support the action scenes, the shock brought by this picture can be imagined, and even the sound of Lao Cui swallowing his saliva can only be heard at the scene.
"This, handsome, you are going to create an era!" Lao Cui shouted excitedly.
It's no wonder he's so excited, in fact, Yingshuai and Industrial Light & Magic have invested tens of millions of dollars in research before and after, and the special effects have actually far surpassed the Chinese Ghost Story of the original time and space, if you want to compare, you can only compare it with Star Wars in the original time and space.
Yes, they are using the special effects of the original time and space Star Wars to show this oriental magic scene. In fact, it is very difficult to shoot the scene of the battle between immortals and demons in this era, involving a lot of light and shadow changes, and the flying of the sword is different from Huang Feihong's light skills, which is completely anti-science, and it is impossible to show it perfectly with a few Wia.
However, Yingshuai actually started thinking about this issue a year ago.
