Chapter 112: Getting Rich in Scolding
When the superhero series of cinema trilogy was still in preparation, the six cinema copies of Yisheng Media had already started filming first.
Because there is only a pitiful single part of the three million investment, it is also extraordinarily simple to shoot.
Li Xianyun found six rookie directors, and went up to Kacha Kacha to shoot throughout, and only asked the technical department and the backstage department to help a little, but it didn't help much, because the technical department still has a lot of work to do, and it's not worth wasting energy for garbage, and you need to rest during this time.
These six films are all modern action scenes, and it just so happens that the commercial area has been partially completed because of advance planning, so some scenes are selected here, but more are looking for locations.
Because Li Xianyun's training works for new directors have few requirements, they are basically up to them, which makes Xu Han, Cao Hongyue and other already well-known cutting-edge directors a little hot.
It's a pity that it's only three million, and no matter how you show your skills, you can't toss a good look.
But just like that, Li Xianyun still has a bunch of strange requirements.
Particularly strongly demanded the explosion scene.
All kinds of explosion scenes are simply about to blow up the rhythm of the sky.
For this reason, the crew was very busy with the ghosts who blew up, and Han Ping sent "explosives" everywhere, and one building after another "blew up" to the sky.
Not only that, Li Xianyun even proposed a real-life explosion.
It's just a real explosion without special effects.
This makes everyone wonder, you don't need special effects, what does it mean to shoot so realistically?
With an investment of three million, you still want to blow up the building and the road? What do you think?
Li Xianyun swore that in order to achieve better results.
For this reason, it is directly connected to some places that need to be demolished, and it is rumbling and blasting against the small building.
Looking at the shattered demolition building, as well as the potholed and broken road that was about to be renovated and bombed, everyone was speechless - it took so much effort, but in fact, the things that were filmed were very bad, because the configuration in other aspects was too poor.
In short, except for this part of the special requirements, basically Li Xianyun just let go.
The only thing worth noting is that Li Xianyun is the chief producer of these six films.
This is the first time he has not been the chief director and the chief producer, and he has even been the liaison producer, production director, art director or something.
All in all, these six films are gradually taking shape in the explosion along the way.
Half a month passed, all the films were quickly completed, and after Li Xianyun put away the films, he held a meeting with the six crews.
No one knew the content of their meeting, anyway, after the crew was finished, everyone left separately, and even the six directors magnified and faked chic.
After the filming of these six films, Yisheng Media partially completed the preparations, and continued their previous rhythm, developing steadily at the rate of three films per month, taking cooperation if there is cooperation, and shooting by themselves if there is no cooperation, still maintaining their consistent characteristics, the plot is ordinary and uneven, there is no art at all, the special effects are brilliant, the lake is absolutely no problem, the quality is as stable as a dog, and the income is as stable as a dog.
Although it is stable and a little down, it is still to make money.
At the same time, the mirror world that cooperated with Li Cheng and them was finally launched.
Because of his friendship with Li Cheng, Li Xianyun is also more serious about the mirror world.
The strange imagination inside outlines a mysterious and strange imaginary world.
As a full display of the aesthetics of stealing from Zhang Damu, Li Xianyun has taken his aesthetic progress to the extreme, although he is not as artistic as Zhang Damu, but at least this film is reasonable.
After the new film was launched, the results were not bad.
Unfortunately, there was still no big hit.
The world is sometimes so strange, the films you make with your heart may not be popular, and you may explode if you do it casually.
After looking at the box office record of the first week, Li Xianyun knew that this film was similar to the Doomsday Crazy Flower.
You must know that the investment in this film is not small, Yunzhi is now also a third-tier, and there are also second-tier cameos by Han Xinyu and Hongchao, and the cast has also passed.
The special effects are stronger than the Doomsday Flowers.
The box office turned out to be about the same!?
Damn, is Lao Tzu's cinema ceiling 600 million at the box office?
Back then, Li Cheng told him that with his production method, he invested 350 million yuan and made 200 million yuan, and the box office could basically stabilize at 5 to 100 million.
It turns out that he was right, but unfortunately it was the lower limit.
Li Xianyun was very dissatisfied with his failure to create a box office miracle, and Huayou and Li Cheng already recognized it.
The box office of 600 million is basically the income of more than 200 million, and Huayou and Li Cheng are both 20 percent, which means that the income is 40 million.
Huayou is sure to make money, but Li Cheng is not a loss.
Li Cheng, who was already mentally prepared for a huge loss, said that I was already very content.
As for Li Xianyun, remove the investment of 30 million and return about 100 million.
Director Li Da said, I don't feel this income.
As for the comedy romance film of the red tide, it is not surprising that it rots.
Although Dong Zixin tried hard to save, he still lost money.
It only sold 30 million at the box office.
Although Li Xianyun did not invest in the resources invested in cash, the resources were also discounted within the company, and the site labor or something was also money.
This made Dong Zixin very unhappy.
Then there is the sentimental literary film of Chonglou Group Cao Chongrui Cao's boss, this drama only cost a few millions, but Dong Zixin really wants to use it for fame and fortune.
It's a pity that I don't know if the award can be won, and the box office must be lost.
The film was released in a miserable situation, and various theaters went offline one after another, and it was directly a three-day tour of the theater.
The final box office was 800,000.
It's a big loss.
Boss Cao doesn't care about money, he cares about whether he can win the prize.
It is extremely difficult for this kind of three-day cinema tour film to win the award, and Li Xianyun also gritted his teeth, "I'll get you an award back." ”
directly instructed Su Haili, don't care how much it is, there must be a prize.
Su Haili said that the award also has a bottom line, and you can't smash the pot like this.
Li Xianyun said that the Chinese Film Awards have no bottom line.
As soon as Su Haili contacted her, the other party said that she would not accept it.
It is estimated that he was scared by Li Xianyun last time.
Li Xianyun was also very helpless, so he had to say, "Then let's get a few small prizes elsewhere first." It's a big deal to go back and make a literary film for him, so I don't want him to publish a script, what a piece of rubbish. ”
More than half of this film is in Boss Cao's own Wenqing heart.
The key is that Li Xianyun took the money, and the pot could only be carried by himself.
Dong Zixin is also very unhappy, two films in a row have no good results, the award is useless, and the box office fails, if it weren't for the boss being her own person, she would be a big mistake, and it would be difficult to take over the film in the future.
However, what really made Li Xianyun care was the six theaters of the bosses introduced by Li Cheng.
Although people invested in Li Cheng's face and Li Xianyun's sister-in-law, if these parts lose too badly, the face will not be able to pass, and the sister is not worth so much, which is always a little difficult to explain.
But after successive box office failures, Li Xianyun also realized that it was really difficult for him to make a big hit with this way of shooting.
In particular, the joint productions are all on the same theme, which can easily lead to competition with each other and box office losses.
In order to avoid this situation as much as possible, Li Xianyun postponed the launch time of these six parts for the first time, so as to try to stabilize the results.
In contrast, it is still worry-free.
After brushing and shooting, hand it up, and the platform will recommend it. The subject matter is the same and the problem is not big, anyway, the audience of the Internet University is just watching a lively one.
Chu Xiya's Dongli Company has a chance, and is desperately busy, all kinds of tidbits and lace are continuous, other crews may not be highly cooperative with you, your own boss's crew, can you still not cooperate?
Chu Xiya originally wanted her film critics to tout more of her boss's films, but Li Xianyun said not to affect her reputation for this.
Fame is a thing, of course, it has to be sold for money, but it has to be sold just right, and there is no need to waste fame on bad movies. Everyone wants to see it after they can spray it.
When the real big production comes out, everyone will tear off their faces and go crazy.
So the film critics of Dongli Company searched their stomachs every day to think about how I was going to scold this film, and it could make everyone want to watch this film. , it's a high-tech job!
That's it, except for the mirror world, which has not been sprayed, most of the films launched by Yisheng Media during this period of time have basically been spent in a scolding.
Some people who don't know still think that Dongli and Yisheng Media have grievances.
But no matter how you scold, there is one thing that Dongli insists on what they say, that is, although the plot is very bad, the special effects are really awesome, and those who like the picture can still watch it.
There are praises and disadvantages, which is a sale.
As a result, Yisheng Media's films sold vigorously in the scolding, and the wealth was extensive.
