The reason why Li Xianyun and others are reluctant to cooperate with others is that in addition to hating investors to manage the east and west, the essential reason is that they are afraid of ghosts.

But the guts are always getting bigger.

During this time, Li Xianyun and Jiang Zheng figured it out a little.

What's wrong with us making movies with ghosts?

Breaking the law?

Is there a rule in the law that it is not allowed?

If the law does not prohibit it, it can be done.

The reason for not letting you know is to avoid trouble, even if you really know, do you dare to trouble me?

I can't scare you!

Of course, it should be hidden.

It's not that there are no outsiders in the ghost detection crew and the anti-time crew, so don't they hide it well?

So as long as the other party gives themselves the right to take the lead, then they can cooperate.

How can we grow big without cooperation?

At this moment, Yang Yuan said: "This is no problem. What's the price? ”

Li Xianyun thought for a while and said, "The special effects that our company can do now, you have basically seen it." The mechanism in the house, the colorful air stream, and the explosion of fireworks effects, ghost special effects, but currently limited to three or four, and the scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. ”

Lin Quan was confused: "Shouldn't the special effects be directional?" Why is the content specified? ”

Generally speaking, special effects companies are also good at it.

For example, our company is good at doing brilliance effects, so any kind of brilliance can be done.

If you can do ghost effects, you can do something else like that.

Q: Why is your company so weird? Is it limited to the specified content? Can ghosts only do two or three? Shouldn't it be that if you can do one ghost, you can be all ghosts?

Li Xianyun smiled: "We are taking different paths, there are losses and gains, specifically...... Technical confidentiality. ”

Yang Yuan asked, "Can you do a light flame explosion effect?" ”

"Yes!"

"What level?"

"Ha, you really asked." Li Xianyun took out his mobile phone.

This is a video he took when he took the time to test the killing ghost.

When the video was opened, I saw a small building, which was suddenly blown up, and there were flames burning everywhere, the flames were blazing, and the flames were monstrous.

But when the fire passed, it was found that Xiaolou was fine there.

Li Xianyun said: "We made an explosion scene, and the projection method was projected on the building, so that the scene of the building explosion could be presented. ”

"But there is no picture of the building collapsing." Lin Quandao.

Li Xianyun spread his hands: "This is a projection after all, and the building will appear after the projection disappears, so it can't be done." ”

Yang Yuanzhi didn't care: "The effect is still the top, the scene of the collapse of the building can be made up later, but there may be distortion in combination with the picture, if it is a fire building, the effect should be better." ”

Li Xianyun immediately said: "That's right, in fact, it is more suitable to shoot the fire building instead of the building explosion, and we were also testing the limit at that time." ”

"Can you make a smoke mark?" Lin Quan asked.

Li Xianyun shook his head: "Smoke can be done, but the smoke marks on the building can't, this part needs to be artistic." ”

Everybody understands.

Sure enough, as Li Xianyun said, what they can do is the extreme, and what they can't do is completely impossible.

But that's enough.

After all, burning a building is not a small amount of money, and the special effects of the fire scene are not easy to do, and it is easy to be distorted when made, and it is too fake at first glance.

And Li Xianyun's technology can make the flames extremely real on the scene, and even the air fluctuations brought out by the heat wave can be seen. In the future, when the heroes rush into the fire, it really looks like real fire, and they don't even need a stand-in for the whole body to burn flames.

It's all money!

Except that there is no collapse or damage, and there are no traces of smoke, everything else is there.

There are still limitations to ghost effects, but fireworks scenes have a wide range of applications.

Yang Yuan asked: "What kind of fireworks explosion scene can be done?" ”

"Fire, explosions, heat waves, whatever form you want, you can do it. It's no problem for you to let me draw you a fire phoenix in the sky with flames! Li Xianyun is very sure.

The premise is that you design the look.

Qin Yuqi clapped his hands and laughed, and said in a loud voice: "That's good, if you shoot a fairy movie, you can also use fire-based spells." ”

That's right, this one does!

Li Xianyun gave a thumbs up: "As long as it's with fireworks, any spell will do." ”

If I had killed the ghost earlier, I would definitely have chased the Flying Fire Phoenix against time!

Yang Yuan and Lin Quan looked at each other and nodded together: "This is basically half a fireworks group with light flame special effects." ”

"The key is to save time, these can be arranged from the beginning, and there is no need to hassle when shooting." Li Xianyun said.

That's right.

Save time, which is important.

A lot of the crew's time is spent on various pre-arrangements, and the fireworks crew is also a part of the heavy time.

And with Li Xianyun's "special effects", there is no need to think about explosives or anything when filming explosion scenes in the future, the efficiency is greatly improved, and personal safety is guaranteed. If it weren't for the action scene problem that hadn't been solved, then there really wouldn't have been a need to buy insurance.

Yang Yuan asked: "What is the price of these special effects?" ”

"There's no hurry." Li Xianyun said: "I want to hear what you can give first?" ”

Lin Quandao: "We can pre-collect the equity you are chasing against time for a price of 10 million." ”

As long as the movie is not launched, equity can be distributed at any time.

Therefore, there are those who pull investment before the project is established, those who pull investment when the auction starts, and those who continue to pull investment after the auction is completed.

But there are differences between the three.

There is no need to explain the investment before the project is established, this is the most normal operation, and the abnormal ones are dark boxes.

The middle stage and the later stage of pulling investment are different.

The most outrageous of these is the intermediate stage, that is, the crew has started filming, and at this time, investors come in, and the crew will still absorb investment.

According to the industry, it is the film itself that accepts investment anytime and anywhere.

But that's.

All rules have a reason, and some of them are unreasonable when you think about it.

You want to.

Your films have already started filming, which means that the funds are in place, what is the use of pulling investment at this time? Can't you shoot half of the scenes in front of you at a cost of 1 million, and then make an investment of 4 million and do it at 5 million?

Then the difference in quality is too big, in case the part you shoot is the beginning, it is not the same as saying that the opening is bad and the back is good - how can the audience have the patience to watch the back? Everyone is about to explode at the beginning.

You said that it is nonsense to use the money behind it for publicity.

The cost of publicity and distribution is also prepared in advance, 3 million films are almost equal to 500,000 publicity, and 4 million are all used for publicity, which is also putting the cart before the horse, regardless of the severity.

Besides, how to distribute equity? That's a problem, right?

You are not allowed to rebalance the equity, negotiated by the parties?

So those words are all beautiful words, and the essential reason for accepting investment in the middle stage is: I want you to give money whenever you want!

Initiate the project to become a shareholder, to invest in the filming period, to invest in the publicity period, when to buy a share, as long as you are willing to give money, Lao Tzu can't miss it!

Of course, it can't be said that it is so dead, when Director Wu Da invested in the Wandering Planet, he was a mid-term shareholder.

But people are professional, there is no comparison!

If you don't have that level, it's best not to invest in the mid-term, there are indeed too many things that are not clear!

As for the final stage of shareholding, there are also two categories.

One is the announcement of shares, which does not need to be explained.

The other type should actually be called the pre-sale of the equity of the film, which itself is also a normal operation, and the abnormal is also a dark box.

A few days ago, Li Xianyun received a promotion from the sales staff of a film and television company, saying that they have a movie called "Van Gogh What" that has been filmed and is releasing its share to the outside world, with a price of 100 million. Li Xianyun asked, it was a comedy, including Liu Yan, Jia Bin, Ling Xiaosu, Li Chengru and a group of famous actors.

And this kind of equity purchase is generally premium, of course, this premium is reasonable and legal, and the money of pit investors is two different concepts.

To put it bluntly, my product has been made, and it doesn't matter how much it costs to you, now it's a price of 100 million, and you just say whether you buy it or not.

The same goes for the anti-temporal hunt.

The film has now been completed, and the rough cut has been completed, if Li Xianyun feels that he is not sure of a big sale, he can find some cooperative companies to sell his equity to the outside world. Whether it's 10 million or 100 million is your own business.

The bet is on expectations!

If he now makes the anti-time hunt worth 30 million and releases 10% of the equity, then he can return 3 million if he changes hands, and the premise is whether he can find someone willing to take over like this.

At this time, the capital side comes into play, and film and television companies with a way can directly take the capital route, enter the fund market, and go to the secondary market, and they can make money without going online, which is also the safest model for everyone.

Although this is a legal road, in practice, there are also many black-hearted roads on this road.

The simplest point: how can a film made of 5 million be sold for 100 million? Isn't that just a lie?

Therefore, the production cost of 80 million is sold at 100 million, which is called legal and reasonable, and the fair premium; Five million for one hundred million, that's fraud - who will buy at this price if you don't rely on cheating?

And the most problematic ones are in the middle.

Is it legal to sell 100 million for 100 million? It's hard to say – it depends on how you fool around.

The fulfillment of the promise is legitimate; If you don't cash in, it's a lie.

That's why most people operate according to this standard - the pursuit of extreme profits.

In short, there are a lot of doorways in the middle, and the involvement is also large.

Li Xianyun has a little ghost in hand, and the special effects are full, suitable for pretending to be a blockbuster, so it is the most suitable to take this road, but because there are too many black roads, he will never take this road - hand it over to the secondary market, how to operate it is not up to you, if you don't do it, it will be a bunch of disgusting things, and you may be summoned by the court if you don't do anything.

There are a bunch of about using movies to engage in illegal fundraising.

Far from it.

In short, if the shooting has been completed, the anti-time hunt is eligible to pre-sell the equity, but the price of 10 million is not a help.

So Li Xianyun smiled and said nothing.

Yang Yuandao: "The three parts of the ghost record, we will help you do the publicity, protect you A-level, and you give fifteen points." ”

Li Xianyun was happy.

It's a bargain and a bargain.

Huayou is still like that, he doesn't want to pay a penny, and he trades all with favors.

Li Xianyun said directly: "This kind of special effect, many people want it, and we don't have to worry about selling it." Although Yisheng Media lacks funds, it can make up for it by selling special effects. ”

His meaning is simple.

Since we are willing to sell special effects, are we still short of funds?

None of the previous problems are a problem.

Get some sincerity, buddy!

Yang Yuan couldn't be fooled, and said with a smile: "Then friends will help, don't talk about the price." ”

Well, that's pretty much it.

Li Xianyun said: "That's it, let's go one yard to one yard." You are willing to help, and I am willing to cooperate with you. As for how to sell specific special effects, it also depends on your film. What kind of film are you going to release recently, tell me the script storyboard, and the special effects you need, and I will give you a price according to your needs. If nothing else, I promise one thing, those special effects of yours, whatever price other special effects studios give, I will also give the price, of course, it must be calculated according to the highest specifications. Okay, right? ”

Everyone looked at each other and thought that this was indeed possible.

Special effects generally have levels, but different special effects studios have different grading methods and standards.

The problem with Li Xianyun's special effects is that the content is narrow, and the advantage is that it is top-notch and time-saving, and it does not need to be arranged in front or made up in the back.

The top special effects, the most efficient cooperation, as long as the top price of the general studio, this cost saving is huge.

Yang Yuan looked at Jiang Zheng and saw that he didn't speak throughout the whole process, and he had a number in his heart.

No wonder.

I'm afraid that the real owner of this special effect is still Li Xianyun -, I didn't see that Li Xianyun, who had a sincere face, would also blow it, the key blow was in the wrong direction, and his own things insisted that they belonged to someone else.

With a number in his heart, his smile became more and more sincere: "It's easy to say!" Say! ”

——————————

PS: I have a professional discourse template for investors asked questions by a film and television fund at home, to put it bluntly, it is a complete set of flickering routines, and I have the opportunity to show it to everyone. But this thing is too involved, I'll finish it if I don't do it, and it depends on the situation - I want to preside over justice, but after all, it didn't get to the point of risking my life.
