Chapter 465 05 Planned Projects
The division of labor between Zhou Ping and Jiang Xuerou is still very clear, Jiang Xuerou is responsible for the production business, and Zhou Ping is responsible for all the company's business except production.
Therefore, last year was Zhou Ping's year-end commendation meeting, and now it is Jiang Xuerou's year-end opening meeting.
Just briefly wished everyone a happy new year, and the days ahead are getting better and better, and she got to the point.
Jiang Xuerou looked around and said: "Last year, we invested in and participated in the production of nine dramas, which will be broadcast one after another this year and next year.
Of course, that doesn't mean we're going to be able to take it easy this year.
However, last year's investment did occupy the vast majority of our funds, so this year's business is relatively small.
Now, let me announce the projects that will be launched this year.
First of all, in the first half of the year, the first project was "The Legend of the Banner Heroes".
This drama is jointly produced by Qiangshi, China Television, Southern Broadcasting, Northern Seven Stars and our Zhouyi Film and Television.
Our proportion is still not large, but we are involved in production and production.
Of course, there are still resources that should be available, and you can go to your department to publicize the resources later. ”
"Okay." Shan Xiaolou nodded neatly.
Jiang Xuerou continued: "Like "The Legend of the Banner Heroes", there is also a "Eight Heroes", which is still dominated by director Wang Jing.
It is jointly produced by ATV, Huayi Brothers and us.
Neither of these dramas is our company's main project, but only as a buffer for this period at the beginning of the year.
Next, our company's important projects are in the three works of "Asking the Wine to the Sky", "Seven Fairies of Joy" and "Eight Formations of Gods and Ghosts". ”
Next, Jiang Xuerou explained the specific situation to various departments and assigned tasks.
"The Legend of the Banner Heroes" and "The Eight Heroes" only need to occupy a part of the production staff and investment funds, and exchange for a certain amount of resources for Yu Bo, Sunshine and others to choose.
The main projects are "Ask the Wine to the Sky", "Seven Fairies of Joy", and "Eight Formations of Gods and Ghosts".
These three works are all their own works within the company,
Among them, "Ask the Wine to the Sky" is Chen Manling's work, following the two-part "Water Moon", another original martial arts script.
Now that the name has just been spread, it has attracted many companies to rush to it, and many media have rushed to report it.
"Seven Fairies of Joy" did not cause much turmoil, after all, it is only the work of two newcomers, Shu Hui and Han Ling.
However, since it is produced by Zhouyi, there are also many companies that are willing to invest.
Moreover, this drama needs a lot of characters, and some actors have also submitted resumes, hoping to play one of the roles and touch Zhou Yi's light.
As for the final "Eight Formations of Gods and Ghosts", it was recreated by screenwriter Wang Shaobo based on the story of Zhuge Liang's Eight Formations, combined with the Anshi Rebellion.
She is not Zhou Yi's screenwriter, but she is very familiar with Chen Manling and other people in the pumpkin creation center.
After Chen Manling and Jiang Xuerou saw this work, they thought it was very good, so they included it in their own production list.
It's just that due to the scarcity of projects in the company this year, there is a lack of funds in the first half of the year, so we can only wait until the second half of the year to make it.
Today I just mentioned it, and I didn't assign the task immediately, after all, in half a year, there are still a lot of variables.
Now that the arrangement continues, but for other reasons, the original people and horses can't arrive on time, isn't that useless work?
After assigning the tasks for the first half of the year, Jiang Xuerou ordered the personnel under Zhou Yi Film and Television Production to prepare separately.
Looking at the remaining members of the film production company, he paused and said: "Our film production company has been established for almost a year, and after such a long period of training, it is time for us to show our talents." ”
Hearing the news, everyone immediately perked up and began to wait intently for her next words.
Making a movie is simple and simple, at the beginning, Ning Hao was a director and a photographer alone, and he finished a short film alone.
With a script, actors, machines, and a director, you can make a movie.
But that's just the simplest, and doesn't take into account everything other than art.
For a production company, there are simply too many elements to focus on in order to make a movie.
Crafting is just the simplest part.
A large number of movies are produced in China every year, but less than one-tenth can be released.
And of these one-tenth works, no more than one percent can make money.
Production, publicity, screening...... and so on, all of which cost money, but the domestic film market is not very good, and it is difficult to make money.
Like Tang Ren before, he made a movie with confidence, thinking of becoming a qualified film company, but in the end, he didn't make a splash.
Until now, Cai Yinong still does not dare to start a film project easily.
The previous Zhou Yi didn't take making movies as his goal at all, he just thought that he could make some money by making TV series, and at the same time be able to meet everyone's ideals.
However, this time is different from the past, the speed of development in the past two years has been too fast, which makes Zhou Ping and Jiang Xuerou also look more long-term.
I plan to take out some of the money to test the waters in the film industry.
Of course, in order to succeed, they also made a lot of preparations.
First of all, through Feng Li and Ma Hongtao, the couple got in touch with Han Sanpin of China Film, expressing Zhou Yi's intention to make a movie.
He is committed to revitalizing the domestic film industry, and he is naturally supportive of Zhou Yi, who is gradually becoming stronger, with abundant funds and outstanding ability, to prepare to switch to film.
Especially when they heard that they had invited Zhang Yimou to be the producer, they gave all kinds of convenience.
Represented China Film to invest 5 million as production funds.
The most important thing is to match Zhou Yi with the distribution company and the theater chain, which is a relationship that Zhou Yi did not have before.
Looking at everyone's happy faces, Jiang Xuerou also said happily: "Now, except for the production, all the other preliminary work has been completed.
As long as the production team is set up and a work is filmed, the follow-up publicity, distribution and other processes will be smooth.
Therefore, the main purpose of our next step is to make a good work. ”
"Mr. Jiang, we will definitely go all out." Chen Shuo said on behalf of all the production staff.
"We also believe that everyone can do a good job." Jiang Xuerou nodded and said, "It's just that I still want to tell you about our main task this time."
That's learning! Learn! Learn again!
This time, Chen Shuo spent a lot of effort to invite director Zhang Yimou as the producer, and even invited his main production team as the backbone of the crew.
Next, what we need to do is to fulfill their orders 100% under the hands of these masters, and learn from their experience and ability.
Prepare for our own independent production in the future!
Guys, do you have faith? ”
"There is !!"
