The threshold for investing in TV dramas is very low on the surface, first, you don't need to buy fixed assets, and second, you don't need to raise a professional team, as long as you find a good script and pull a few big-name actors, any crew can shoot it, and you can get money by selling it to the TV station...

Yes, Gao Fenfen has a lot to do with the TV station...

But so what?

Can you guarantee that no one will cheat her?

The coal bosses who are stupid and come quickly with a lot of money have turned around and entered the unfamiliar TV drama industry, and there are too many tricks for them to eat a few pots...

Why is Gao Fenfen fine?

No one who knows how to do it doesn't know how to die if they are pitted to death.

If you cheat your money, people still have a point!

The famous director Chen Kexin once said, 'Money is earned, not saved!' ’

Therefore, people have a straw hat and a pair of cloth shoes to report thousands of dollars, and even take out this thing to publicize...

This is technology and hard work!

"Do you know the average price of renting a camera? Do you know if the camera should be HD or SD? What are the different brands of HD and what is the price of each? ”

"Do you know where to buy the cheapest costumes and props?"

"Do you know how many snacks the crew has to provide in a day?"

Three questions in a row directly stunned Gao Fenfen, and Shen Xudong spread his hands: "You don't know anything, what do you invest in TV series?" ”

"So, we need a reliable producer..."

Shen Xudong asked again: "... Do you know that? ”

“… I don't know, but you should... Haven't you been with a group? ”

"I'm with the team, not with the production team..."

After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone: "I'll call Chen Xi over and let her tell you!" ”

"Chen Xi? She seems to be in the crew of "Golden Branches"..."

"I know, but she doesn't have a lot of roles... She mainly works as a production assistant in the production team, and she has a lot of experience... Let her tell you. ”

As he spoke, Shen Xudong dialed Chen Xi's phone, and then gave the phone to Gao Fenfen and asked them to talk directly...

……

In fact, Shen Xudong's worries are a bit redundant...

Gao Fenfen discussed with her father to do something, and now, it is not difficult for a high-quality TV series, TV station and audio-visual copyright to earn 300,000 yuan per episode, plus other profits, in terms of investment, it can easily achieve a profit rate of more than 50%.

Now is the bonus period.

In the next two years, with the development of the Internet, piracy will become more and more rampant, and the audio-visual copyright will be slightly equal to zero...

The TV series bonus period is gone...

However, Gao Fenfen's father suggested focusing on modern urban dramas and finding a few popular stars to star.

First, urban dramas are very good at arranging product placement, and the return on product placement is very high, enough to recover a large part of the cost

Second, there are too many costume dramas at this stage!

New types are needed to fill the gap in the market...

Of course, the most important thing is the quality of the drama - at this stage, satellite TV everywhere is constantly competing in the direction of solo dramas, and the price of the premiere or first round of popular dramas with potential is getting higher and higher.

At least at this stage, a good drama equals a good project!

It's not yet the era of thunder dramas...

Is Shen Xudong's concern reasonable?

Of course!

First of all, you don't have your own production team, which is very bad, if you look for someone else, who can you find?

Those who are a little well-known have their own affiliated companies!

Secondly, there is no producer to trust...

This one is deadly!

The producer is in charge of money, if you are a pure layman, you can really be killed!

The industry is opaque, except for photography and recording, which basically will not deceive people, costumes, props, makeup, art... and so on...

Chen Xi has followed "No. 1 in the World", and now he is working with the group "Golden Branches Desire", and he doesn't know much about the crew's methods of making money - this crew is quite formal, but there is also a phenomenon of indiscriminate spending...

Therefore, her advice to Gao Fenfen is to blindly press the joint production, learn it, expand her network, and then think about making her own drama.

……

"I didn't lie to you, the crew does have a lot of pits!"

“… Okay, then I'll invest in the "Beauty Scheming" and "Fairy Sword" you said first... By the way, my dad also introduced two projects, one is "Plum Blossom Files", and the other is Huang Lei's "Singing in the Middle of the Night"..."

Shen Xudong nodded: "You are free, but you must follow the group in person, learn it, take a look..."

Gao Fenfen gave him a blank look: "I'm not a fool, I must follow the group in person..."

Shen Xudong picked up the coffee in front of him and drank it all: "Is there anything else?" It's okay, I'm leaving! ”

Gao Fenfen immediately said: "Script! ”

"What script?"

"We make our own plays... Let me tell you, it must be an urban drama, a little more fashionable! ”

“… Yes? ”

Gao Fenfen explained: "My dad said that this kind of drama is easy to product on the one hand, and easy to operate on the other hand! ”

“… Urban chic..."

Shen Xudong pondered for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "Or, let's do idol dramas?" ”

"The kind of "Meteor Garden"? It's not good to do, campus romances are not allowed..."

“… Who said that idol dramas have to be campus romances..."

"The Prince Becomes a Frog", "The Star of the Sheep", "Next Stop, Happiness", "Fated I Love You"...

inappropriate also include "Why Sheng Xiaomo" and "Too Late to Say I Love You";

No matter how bad it is, it's okay to copy a few Korean dramas!

Kong Xiaozhen has several romantic light comedies, he likes them all, "It's okay, it's love", "I'm going to see you now", "Best Love"...

There are also "Falling into Innocence", "Need for Romance", ......

It's really not good, and "You from the Star"...

No matter how bad it is, you can take the funny route, such as "Come on! Waikiki", "It's cheap, Maxima supermarket! >> It's all good...

The pattern is bigger, who said that you can only copy domestic dramas?

“… Then I'll wait for you to write the script! ”

"Well, you follow the group first..."Speaking of this, Shen Xudong suddenly remembered something: "Is our company rich?" ”

"Yes, the late account sharing of "Three Kingdoms" has arrived... Almost 7 million... Do you want it now? ”

"It's okay to give it to me..."Shen Xudong said with difficulty: "... You can invest it..."

"Just waiting for your words, I'll use it first... I also made an appointment and left first! ”

didn't wait for Shen Xudong to speak, she flashed directly...

No... My money... Is it safe?

……

In fact, idol dramas depend on the times and the social environment!

Your plot like "The Prince Becomes a Frog" is not suitable for the mainland, and the remake of "Love Wakes Up" has a very poor sense of substitution...

On the contrary, "Surrender to the Innocent Girl" and "Our Youth with Nowhere to Place" are quite good...

If you write an idol drama, Shen Xudong will most likely choose "It's Okay, It's Love"...

It's that Ji Hae-so, played by Kong Hyo-jin, is not easy to find a replacement...

Let's write first, and then we'll talk about it when we're done!

When I got home, I pondered for a while, and then added "It's Okay, It's Love" and "Come on!" to the list of urban documents. Waikiki "Two documents...

"Come on! "Waikiki" is actually a sitcom, the main scene is in the homestay, and the plot mainly revolves around three men and one woman...

From the perspective of commercial returns, it is more appropriate to do "Come On" first...

Damn, how do you think of business returns?

You're just a little screenwriter now...

Write the script first...
