Chapter 101: If you are not afraid to spend money, you are afraid that you will not be able to spend it
"You should know that the team I poached from Happy Twist plans to make comedies, aiming at the domestic market." Xu Jia said.
The foreign market refers to selling copyrights by winning awards, which is usually the way of the sixth generation of directors, of course, most of them are recruited.
In the domestic market, it is to take the box office as the route.
Local comedy is indeed a genre that cannot be bypassed, you must know that when Hollywood blockbusters are rampant, local comedy is the only domestic film that can survive in the cracks.
After all, the domestic film environment is different from that of foreign countries.
Just like "Taiping Wheel", the same big production is placed in Hollywood's Big Six, and it only needs the box office to reach the investment amount to recover the cost.
Because they also have movie peripherals to make a profit, as well as the sale of discs, and even sell foreign rights.
However, domestic films can only look at the box office, and before the problem of piracy is solved, there is no need to think about the income around the movie, and few people are rooted in this field.
Not to mention disc sales, which did not develop this culture.
The audience group that has even entered the cinema has not yet been fully cultivated, let alone the disc group.
However, there is a point on the TV series, which is completely an independent invention of Huaxia and the only one in the world.
That's ahead of the time......
"Isn't it possible that you're planning to adapt Twist's drama? Did you submit the script for review? Li Ming grasped the key point at the first time, and as for whether there was a copyright dispute, it was not for him to consider.
"It's been sent, the dragon mark has come down, and in terms of comedy, there will generally not be much problem with the review." Xu Jia said.
"Also, how good it is to do comedy, but there is still less literary and artistic one." Li Ming said with feeling.
What domestic films are most afraid of is the review problem, just like "No Man's Land" made before Pony Galloping.
After the shooting, it was put on hold for several years before it could be seen again, and it was cut to pieces.
Fortunately, after so many years, the main actors involved are more famous, which makes the movie barely return to its roots.
"You don't have to worry about the distribution, we will make the product, and rest assured that we will only charge the cost price." Li Ming patted his chest and said.
With "Taiping Wheel", Xu Jia helped him make up for the losses he came back, which was worth hundreds of millions.
If you really want to talk about it, it can also be said that it saved the pony Gallop's life.
Hundreds of millions of working capital are invested in "Taiping Wheel", and with the degree of hitting the street in this movie, it can really drag the pony gallop down.
Huanrui can survive only because it is a listed company with capital composition after all.
There are also many TV series that have received good responses, and their artists have also made a lot of profits, which has withstood the pressure.
Even so, in the next three years, the other party will have to develop carefully and dare not take a step.
"According to the market, your own family should also settle accounts, so that it can last for a long time, right?"
Xu Jiawan rejected Li Ming's kindness, and he would not waste his favor for this money.
"Okay, just do as you say."
Li Ming smiled and said: "Look at what you mean, there is a big move this year, there are two TV series with more than 100 million productions, and now I am preparing to enter the film industry, I have to remind you, you still have to be careful, the steps are too big and easy to pull eggs." ”
He used himself as a lesson to warn Xu Jia.
Whether you can listen to it or not depends on Xu Jia's own.
After all, he just climbed out of the pit, and someone helped pull it.
"I know in my heart, I'm not afraid of big steps now, I'm afraid that I can't spend the money in my hand." Xu Jia shook his head and said.
He knows very well that don't look at the current inflation of prices in the entertainment industry, which is scolding all parties, and it will rise again in the future, or even more violently.
Internet giants such as Wanda, Alibaba, and Penguin will also join in one after another to start a money-burning war.
When this gang of capital burns money, it will really be like paper.
Xu Jia's current advantage, in addition to his advanced vision in the past ten years, is that he has sufficient cash flow in his hands.
If you don't take advantage of the capital giants to burn money, you will only depreciate quickly if you keep it in your hands.
It's really more popular than people.
Li Ming is still worried about where to get the money, many projects have not been returned, and the cash flow is really tight.
Xu Jia on the other side was worried that he couldn't spend the money.
Rao is Li Ming knew that Xu Jia was a benefactor, and a pretentious thought could not help but rise in his heart.
"Ahem, Xiao Tang, bring the project book that was invested in our company and show it to Mr. Xu."
After speaking, Li Mingchu looked at Xu Jia narrowly, "There is a suitable project, you can take it, anyway, we have more than enough heart and not enough strength." ”
It's sleepy, hand over the pillow.
At this moment, Li Ming fell in Xu Jia's eyes, like a stupid child of a landlord's family.
With the fame of the pony galloping, the project books delivered to the other party must be more than their own, and they are more valuable.
Combined with his own forward-looking vision......
Tut-tut, it is directly Wuhu take-off.
"Then I'll be disrespectful."
Xu Jia took the project book with a smile, flipped it up casually, and gave him a surprise in the first one.
"Oh, this, the director is Xu Chengyi, from the American Dream Factory, he is very good at animation and special effects, this project should be a combination of live action and animation, but the special effects are too expensive, so I will put it on hold first, this project has good potential." Li Ming replied very sincerely.
It does seem that the prospects are good, but the prospects are good, and there are more potential film projects.
There are even many movies that look like they will make a lot of money every year, but in fact most of them lose a lot, and only a handful of them can become winners.
So in Huaxia, there is a word that is also used to describe filmmakers, and that is gamblers.
However, in Xu Jia's eyes, this is not only a good potential, but also a hen that can lay golden eggs.
"Monster Hunt", but later there were two sequels.
forcibly praised Bai Lily and Jing Boran to the first-line position, if it were not for special reasons in the future, and the filmmaker couldn't put any effort into improving the quality, at least two more sequels could be made.
Not to mention live-action animation, which is inherently suitable for the development of film peripherals.
In the previous life, the producer of "Monster Hunt" didn't expect it to be so popular, but Xu Jia was prepared, so that he could be prepared to undertake the traffic and popularity in advance after the movie was released.
Not to mention, the movie itself can make a lot of money at the box office.
"Yes, please ask your assistant to fax these project books to Jiaxing for me, I just need to refer to them."
Xu Jia's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he couldn't tell that he was not interested in the project here.
This made Li Ming, who was always paying attention to him, a little disappointed.
In the name of Xu Jiadian's golden hand, if the former shows his attention, he may follow suit.
Friendship is friendship, and when it is time to start, you must not be soft.
"Xiao Tang, fax these project books to Jiaxing."
Li Ming greeted him and said with a smile: "A little thing is not a trouble." ”
