Chapter 313: Ready

If Mythical Entertainment's films want to enter the international film market, the beautiful country is indeed a main battlefield.

Therefore, Huang Bai must deal with the affairs of the beautiful country, so that he can really sit back and relax, and can officially start filming the Titanic.

Moreover, in the movie, there are still many actors, and Huang Bai plans to find other suitable actors to participate in the beautiful country.

But none of this is difficult.

The staff sent by Mythical Entertainment to the beautiful country earlier, they have actually found a suitable film company.

This film company is not a well-known film company in the beautiful country, but what is rare and commendable is that they have quite complete procedures in all aspects.

They are facing the crisis of bankruptcy and have to look for foreign intervention to intervene.

When Huang Bai came to the beautiful country of Los Angeles, the staff of Mythical Entertainment had almost negotiated.

Huang Bai only came to make a final signature to buy the film company.

This film company is called Foster Film Co., Ltd., which has been established for more than 20 years, from scratch, to a second-rate film company in a beautiful country. But it's a pity that three or four years ago, after making a good movie and reaping a box office of 200 or 300 million, they were a little floating.

In recent years, there have been successive investments, but every movie has hit the street and lost a lot of money.

Originally, there were four or five shareholders together, but now several shareholders have disagreements, saying that they want to stop losses in time and take the money and leave.

This is also a very normal thing, seeing that making movies can make so much money, they definitely want to continue to invest and make a little more, but when they invest, they find that this money is not so easy to make, and they have lost wave after wave, so now they don't have the confidence to make movies anymore. Then, when he didn't lose to nothing, he simply sold the company and left.

In addition, more than ten or twenty years ago, at that time, several of their shareholders were all in the prime of life, the younger ones were in their thirties, and the older ones were only in their forties. Now, they are all old and don't have so much energy to toss.

Now, Huang Bai only needs to spend about 100 million US dollars to buy the film company. Mainly because they are still in debt, reaching a debt of 30 or 40 million US dollars.

Huang Bai doesn't care about this money, what Huang Bai cares about is whether the film works of this film company can be the same as other film companies, and they can get the release of films normally.

In the Great Beautiful Country, their theater chain is not the same as the Dragon Kingdom.

Here, the theater chain is basically in the hands of those big film companies.

Then Huang Bai found out that this film company signed a film screening agreement with two major film companies with a ten-year term. That is to say, like other film companies in the beautiful country, this film company, as a film distribution company, if there is a film that needs to be released, it can be distributed by the two big film companies, and they will charge the normal screening fee and charge 10% of the movie box office. In addition, the two major film companies also take a 10% share of the film box office (this refers to the box office share of the theaters under the two major film companies, not the total box office).

Well, this is also equivalent to saying that the film company can actually get more than 30% of the box office share of the movie in the end. This is because the entertainment tax in the beautiful country is very heavy, and it basically has to be charged about 50%.

In this way, the box office revenue that can be obtained in the beautiful country is actually about the same proportion as the box office income that can be obtained in the dragon country. It's about 33% of the total box office of the movie, a third. 1 billion is only more than 300 million points.

There are many details, which are different from the original world of Cork.

But there is no way around this, other people's rules are like this, if you want to eat like this, then you have to follow the rules set by them.

In addition, if you can avoid some taxes if you do it properly, you can get 10% to 20% more box office revenue. This is also tantamount to making a fuss from the tax revenue of the beautiful country, and it is okay to operate it properly, and if it is not operated properly, it will be very

Troublesome.

The state apparatus of a beautiful country is not a vegetarian, and their intelligence work is basically the best in the world. If you don't succeed in circumventing it, you will be blacklisted, and all your efforts may be in vain.

Cork is planning to develop for a long time, so if there is a risky thing, Cork thinks there is no need to do it.

Making money on their own can also make them earn, so that Huang Bai will gradually have more status in them. When the time comes, they will also take the initiative to show favor to Cork and will give certain preferential policies.

The beautiful country is known as a free country, and they should still be able to tolerate the acquisition of such a film company to make movies. As for the content of the shooting, in addition to secretly mixing a certain amount of Dragon Kingdom culture, the whole is also in line with their value and artistic outlook, and there should not be much problem in passing the review at that time.

The most important thing is to ensure that their movies can be released smoothly, as long as they have the initial success of one or two successes, they can get more benefits to the authorities of the beautiful country, then they will have a certain guarantee in the future.

You know, they don't have to do anything, they don't have to take any risks, then they make so much tax for nothing. In this way, they will only give themselves in the future.

In the British island country, money is the uncle, why not in them? As long as they don't openly involve some issues of principle, then they are unlikely to engage in their own affairs.

Huang Bai figured out these problems, so he decided to directly acquire Foster Film Company, and then renamed it the film branch of Da Mei Guo under Myth Entertainment.

After the handover of the film company was quickly completed, Huang Bai asked people to reorganize the resources of the film company, mainly some personnel matters, the works of the original film company, the copyright is still in the company, and it also needs to be dealt with.

After completing these affairs, Huang Bai also immediately asked people to find an electronic special effects company.

In fact, there are already many special effects companies that are engaged in the most sub-special effects companies, and there are already many in the Dragon Kingdom. After all, this era is moving forward, when it used to be very rare electronic special effects, 3D technology or something is a very precious and new thing, but now it is something very ordinary.

If you want to learn, maybe ordinary people can also learn a little bit of it.

Of course, if you want to do really good electronic special effects, you do need more professional talents, otherwise, it will only be some Sanmao special effects.

Mythical Entertainment has also set up an electronic special effects department that belongs to Mythical Entertainment, and some electronic special effects have also been used in some Vs.

After all, in addition to the increase in singers, Cork also gave them more music songs, and sometimes it was too late to shoot music V, so you can use electronic special effects to produce music V.

However, the electronic special effects department of Myth Entertainment, which has not long been established, is still exploring, and in the stage of development, the electronic special effects are not yet mature, and they are not very good. For the time being, it is okay to make some simple electronic special effects for the current mythological entertainment movies, but it may be a little reluctant to use some electronic special effects that are more realistic and have grander scenes.

Today, the department is also expanding and recruiting more technicians. Moreover, in some of the movies that Huang Bai left for his stars, more electronic special effects also need to be used, such as Yuan Zhengying's zombie Taoist. All of this requires the cooperation of the electronic special effects department.

Therefore, if Cork is now going to shoot and produce Titanic, he needs another electronic special effects team to do this electronic special effects.

In this world, there are special effects companies that are similar to industrial light and magic.

The movies in this world have a lot of similarities and differences with the original world of Cork, but there are also many wonderful movies.

Science fiction special effects have developed to a very high level.

Huang Bai asked people to find a good electronic special effects company, and after negotiations, it was officially acquired, making it part of the mythical entertainment branch of the beautiful country.

For this electronic special effects team, Huang Bai spent tens of millions of dollars.

In this way, it is necessary to prepare for the filming of the Titanic

The preparatory work can also be said to be basically completed.

For this preliminary work, Huang Bai has spent a total of hundreds of millions of American knives, and the box office share of the two movies Peace Hotel and Patrol Story, which were released a year ago, was basically spent here.

It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to spend money like running water.

However, if the Titanic movie is successful, then it will be able to recoup all the efforts at once, and it will definitely make a lot of money.

The original Foster Film Company also has directors, screenwriters, actors, and so on.

There is not only one director, the most famous of them is Director Morrison, a director in his fifties, and he made the movie that sold two or three hundred million box office by the original company. It's a pity that this was followed by a few more movies that hit the streets, which consumed his fame.

Huang Bai directly asked him to be named the director of the Titanic. After all, he has a complete adapted script, and he will participate in the whole process, he only needs to shoot according to the script, so there is no need to recruit another famous director.

He appointed two other directors as assistant directors, and on his own Dragon Kingdom, Huang Bai will also appoint two or three more directors, anyway, let them be named together and be responsible for some movie shooting.

If the movie is a big hit, they can all be stained by then.

Now that the movie is almost ready, there are some supporting roles.

In other words, Huang Bai believes that these are actually very key points.

The main creator of the film is gone, and then the actor is replaced by himself, which itself is also different from the people of the Dragon Kingdom and the Westerners. Therefore, for other actors in the movie, Huang Bai thinks that he still has to find someone who is with the original movie to shoot.

The heroine Mozart Liz is very consistent with the original heroine. So next, what I am looking for is the actor who plays Rose's fiancé, which can also be said to be the villain, and it is actually a more brilliant role in the movie.

It looks like it's handsome, but it's not a good person at first glance.

In addition to him, several other roles are also very important, the captain, the co-ointé, and the fat wife, in the movie, she is also a rare funny role and a supporting actress who is more friendly to the male protagonist.

I have to find a selfish Rose's mother.

These movie characters seem to be supporting roles, but each of them actually has certain characteristics, and not just any person can replace them.

This, a truly classic movie, is actually like Zhou Xingxing's movie, you can think about it, if the supporting roles in Zhou Xingxing's movie are played by someone else, do you still feel like that?

Huang Bai estimates that putting aside preconceived notions, in fact, if someone else plays it, the feeling may be completely different.

Therefore, Huang Bai wants to make a movie of Zhou Xingxing, and without finding Zhou Xingxing himself, he can only take it hard, but for some other important roles, Huang Bai thinks that it would be better to find actors similar to the original movie as much as possible.

Otherwise, the movie made is nondescript, how can there be any success at all?

Therefore, earlier Huang Bai made this movie with wind and rain, and several of the main characters in the movie are actually really similar to the original movie. Those actors, they may not be as good as their acting skills, but Huang Bai has an actor role card, and in some places where they need to perform colorfully, Huang Bai will spend some money to buy a role card with the system, so that those actors can perfectly perform the places to perform.

Of course, these actor character cards cost money, and each one has a certain time limit for use, so it is impossible for Cork to use those character cards throughout the movie.

In this way, the improvement of the acting skills of the actors themselves is extremely important.

However, compared to the Dragon Country, the actors' union system here in the Great Beautiful Country seems to be more mature and complete.

The main reason is that the actors' union here has been established for a longer time, and in this industry, the people they participate in as a whole are actually far from the population

The number of dragons has reached more than 20 billion people.

With the advent of this Internet era, in terms of Dragon Kingdom, in fact, everyone can become an Internet celebrity, and anyone can participate in the entertainment industry. Therefore, it is difficult to keep a record of all the people involved in this actor association or something. There are many people, in fact, who are impulsive and have a little money, invest in making a movie, and act as an actor themselves. These, they generally don't go to the actors' association to register. Because after they played, they disappeared again.

The key is still the Dragon Kingdom, even now, there is no standard distinction between professional and unprofessional.

If it is said that an actor from a professional class is a professional actor, but in fact, the acting skills of those actors are basically unqualified, and they don't know what they are filming when they are filming.

And some of them started from playing tricks, and those who have been running tricks for more than ten or twenty years, those tricks, their acting skills are the real acting skills, and they can really completely crush those guys who are from professional classes.

So, how can we distinguish who is professional and who is not?

Facts have also proved that there are not many who can really act after studying in an acting academy, film school, or art school, and there are few who can really succeed in the end. On the contrary, those who have not read any books and don't understand a few words can play some characters vividly.

But in this beautiful country, it is indeed better to do better in these aspects.

Although they also have a lot of problems, and there are also situations where some artists from the academy are not good at acting, some of the actor databases they have established are really relatively complete.

In this way, Huang Bai is in the office, and he can search for some actors who seem to have the right image.

One by one, the supporting roles were searched, and if they found that the images almost matched, Huang Bai could ask the people below to notify them and let those actors audition.

In this way, it didn't take a few days for Huang Bai to basically find suitable actors.

At the same time, the submitted application for the filming of the film project has also passed the review in the beautiful country.

In other words, Cork can officially start shooting Titanic.

But Huang Bai will not start filming here in the beautiful country, and he will definitely have to go back to the British island country.

Now the relationship between Cork in the British island country is much better than here in this big beautiful country. Cork is in Southamp City, and in the words of the fans, it is equivalent to their home stadium.

After that earlier wave of publicity, the entire city of Southamp is now highly concerned about the Titanic.

In particular, the replication of a Titanic has become something that everyone in Southamp is looking forward to.

Because it's really a matter of their personal relationship.

Think about it, when the time comes, there will often be a luxury cruise ship with special significance moored in their city harbor, so how many tourists from all over the world will be attracted to visit?

As long as it comes, it must be consumed, and some food and drink must be unavoidable, so it is directly equivalent to the problem that can act on their citizens themselves and bring them benefits.

In this way, they are all eager to copy the luxury cruise ship as soon as possible.

Now, Huang Bai wants to make this movie in the name of the cruise ship, which is just the right time for the people of Southamp to heat up again.

It will definitely attract the attention and expectation of the people of the whole city.

Well, this city, which is about two or three million people, if they support it from the whole people, not to mention much, if a third of the people can support this movie by then, it can be counted as one million people, a movie ticket, about 20 or so, which can contribute about 20 million US dollars to the box office of Huang Bai.

Huang Bai feels that such achievements can be done in Nan'an City.

In this way, Huang Bai asked the crew to transfer all the crew to Nan'an City, the British island country, where they prepared for the start of the film.

At this time, Sophie, who did not go to the beautiful country with Cork, her matter was also solved, for which Cork paid four million dollars for her.

It was also the settlement of her contract with the original company

Question, so, she was especially happy and grateful to Cork.
