Chapter 38 Dredging
Because it is a series, the cast is basically fixed, and the plot is a bit like Wen Ziren's conjuring, which tells the story of a family encountering a ghost and finally inviting a ghost hunter to catch a ghost.
The male and female protagonists are a pair of lovers, the first male is played by Lin Xiaoyu, and the first female is another newcomer, named Jiang Lanwen, who has also performed well in the same type of film in the original world, with good image and temperament, and good acting skills, especially the eyes, which are quite sharp.
Domestic actresses are good at being charming and sexy, and it is rare to see sharp eyes.
Jiang Lanwen's eyes are very distinctive, her face shape is a bit like Keira Knightley, she doesn't belong to the kind of beautiful melon seed face, but with good makeup, the characteristics are distinct, and the facial lines are clear, so Li Xianyun also called to find it in person.
The ghost hunter is also the starring role, and he is the big coffee sent by Huayou.
The big name is Shen Rong, forty-two years old this year, he used to be a second-tier actor, no matter his fame or acting skills, he said it was in the past, but because he was older, it became more and more difficult to receive the play, which led to a sharp drop in his value.
Coffee places like her are generally quoted from 50,000 to 100,000 a day.
When Ren Zhi of the original world was filming, he once asked Li Moutong, the little dragon girl of the year, to make a cameo, saying that 50,000 a day might be invited, and the price was about the same as Li Mouxiong, who was a hero, and so on, but people didn't bird him - it may be a problem with the price, and it may be a problem that the crew is too low.
Shen Rong is similar, she used to be very popular, but now that time has changed, she is no longer popular in previous years, but she is also a well-known coffee after all.
However, probably because of the well-known coffee, Shen Rong even asked her agent to call before she came, asking if she could come later, saying that there was something to delay.
You have a, you must want to take the opportunity to reap the benefits elsewhere!
There is no such thing as a big-name actor.
Li Xianyun is now familiar with the routine, and sternly refuses. If you don't do it, don't blame me for turning my face with Huayou, Lao Tzu is a creditor!
As a result, the other party still didn't let out a fart, and came obediently.
Therefore, there are few credible words about these goods, and those who do film and television must be hard - the key is that you must be able to find the hard point.
The layman doesn't know, when it should be hard, it is soft, and when it should be soft, it is hard, and the result is that it is fooled.
Once the actors are in place, the script is read.
Today, Li Xianyun was still discussing the script with everyone, and Ren Zhixing rushed over, his excited eyes running to his eyebrows: "Xianyun!" ”
Li Xianyun didn't raise his head: "If there is anything, you can talk to Jiang Zheng." ”
"Eh, no, you're the boss, and I have to talk to you about this." Ren Zhi stood outside and beckoned desperately.
Li Xianyun reluctantly asked everyone to discuss it by themselves, and went out and asked in a low voice: "What is the matter?" ”
Ren Zhi came over: "The online filing of the ghost battle in the secret room has passed, and it will be graded soon." I said, you're not going to find someone to do it? ”
"What activity?" Li Xianyun asked.
Ren Zhi slapped his forehead: "It's to dredge the relationship!" There is hope that our film will be rated A-grade. ”
In the dissemination of domestic film and television platforms, the payment method for online movies is directly related to the rating.
According to the pricing standards of the three mainstream film and television platforms in China, they are generally divided into three grades.
Among them, the C file is the lowest, the price is 1.5 yuan / a single effective click, the so-called effective click is to enter the charging stage after watching the six-minute free period, either spend money to watch, or VIP account viewing.
In file B, the price is 2 yuan/single effective click.
The A grade is the highest, and the price is 2.5 yuan / single effective click.
Of course, this file is not constant, different platforms, different worlds are different. There was a platform in the original world, and later there was an S-class, S+, and legend Splus...... It's amazing.
But there's not much trouble here, just these three gears.
In addition to the different prices of the three major files, the key is that the promotion efforts given by the platform are also different, the higher the level of the movie, the better the promotion - this kind of promotion is equivalent to publicity.
The effect of spending millions on the outside may not be better than the effect of a recommendation on the platform, and the key is that you don't need to spend money.
So for online movies, ratings are very, very important.
Like Li Xianyun's "Ghost War in the Secret Room", the market price is three million, and the reported cost of the bizarre platform is eight million, and the price of eight million can basically be set at the A level.
But each platform will not set how much you want because you report, they have their own judgment.
The actual investment in the ghost battle in the secret room is not high, and the ghost special effects are awesome, so it is in an area that can be both A-level and B-level.
In this case, give some money to some people on the committee in the hope of getting an A grade. But note that there is hope - no matter whether you succeed or fail, you will not return the money.
Ren Zhixing rushed and said: "I know a producer in the strange platform, and 100,000 yuan can almost guarantee A-level." ”
"100,000 yuan? Almost? Li Xianyun looked at him and smiled.
If he hadn't understood this kid, Li Xianyun might have been fooled by him.
100,000 yuan is the standard price, but it does not mean that the other party will receive 100,000 yuan.
And most importantly, the rating committee is not alone.
When the other party takes the money, it must be 90% sure, and you will wait to win the jackpot as soon as you operate.
Li Xianyun shook his head directly: "I want to be a clean film and television company, a film and television company that does not cheat investors' money and does not follow crooked ways." ”
Ren Zhi shook his head again and again, his eyes drooped under his nose, and his face was serious: "My great writer, don't be so ignorant of the fireworks of the world, okay?" What could be more important than making money these days? Do you know how much difference there is between a B grade and a A grade? For an average B-grade movie, it will be the sky if it can sell two or three million, and the A-grade movie can reach more than 810 million. ”
"I know, but I don't care." Li Xianyun replied.
Ren Zhi's face was pale, his bean eyes were bright, and his face was full of lines and squeezed out a "I'm serious": "You only invested more than 300,000 yuan, and as long as the film can be sold for 700,000 or 800,000 yuan, you will return to your capital, so you can not care." But Wu Bao, they invested more than one million! The film has to be sold for three million to pay off. Do you know what that means? ”
Of course Li Xianyun knows.
This means that if the movie sells for 2 million, Li Xianyun will make money, but Wu Bao will lose it.
It's okay for everyone to lose together, but if one party loses and one earns, the losing party will definitely not accept it.
Ren Zhi said seriously: "Wu Bao, they have an underworld background, you can't offend them." ”
"Knowing that they have an underworld background, you don't still cheat?" Li Xianyun scoffed.
Ren Zhi was stunned for a moment and muttered: "If you have money, why don't you take it." ”
Greed, even if you know that some people can't take their money, you still can't control your hands, and you don't regret it until something goes wrong.
Ren Zhi still didn't give up: "If you do this business, it's easy to offend people." ”
Li Xianyun smiled: "I will offend many people in the future...... It doesn't matter if it's human or not. ”
