Everyone was in the company. After receiving a call from Lin Yuan, the two met in the film department.
Facing Lin Yuan who was full of anticipation, Lao Zhou felt a bit of a headache, pondering over his words while pondering: "Your movie will definitely be released"
"but?"
Lin Yuan felt that such a statement must have a turning point.
Not as Lin Yuan expected.
Lao Zhou coughed as expected: "But our company is busy preparing for the release of "Thunderstorm" recently, and July is the summer vacation, the competition in the film market is very fierce"
Lin Yuan frowned.
Of course he knew about the project "Thunderstorm".
It is the company's first film project, so the higher ups attach great importance to it.
Different from the earth.
Blue Star's film industry is undoubtedly more developed, and it is not a problem for various special effects technologies to beat Hollywood on the earth.
This means an exaggerated increase in the speed of production of such films.
With the support of such superb film technology, the completion speed of films such as "Thunderstorm" is not necessarily much slower than some small-investment films.
It is unimaginable on Earth, but it is not a problem to achieve this level on Blue Star.
"So say it."
Lao Zhou said helplessly: ""Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" definitely won't get too many film schedules, after all, there are too many blockbuster films in the same period, and we have made three chapters before the promotion, and there is no extra funds to promote your film."
"Then shall I change the schedule?"
Of course Lin Yuan knew the importance of arranging films.
Lao Zhou was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Lin Yuan was still thinking about arranging the film.
The summer vacation is just an excuse for Lao Zhou.
He really couldn't get too many films for "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".
For a movie with an investment of less than 10 million yuan, none of the actors can carry the box office.
It doesn't matter if the director is inexperienced, the screenwriter is still a composer, but the script is also confusing
To know.
Arranging films not only depends on the quality of the film, but also depends on the management of the production company.
For example, "Thunderstorm".
As a movie promoted by Starlight, in order to get a higher schedule in the early stage, Lao Zhou and the leaders of the film department gave a lot of benefits to those in charge of the theater.
Does Lao Zhou still want to give gifts for "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"?
How much do you have to send?
And it doesn't matter if it's useful as a gift.
The point is that even if there are more films for the movie "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", it's useless.
In the end, it is not the theater chain, let alone the entertainment company, that decides whether to pay the bill, but the audience!
Lao Zhou complained: "The schedule can be changed, but no matter how you change it, it is very difficult to get the schedule of your movie. After all, the theaters also watch dishes and order food. Your movie has no stars, no famous director, and no director. invest¡¡"
No big investment.
There is no director.
There are no big-name actors.
Such films are collectively referred to as "three no films".
It's not that there have been examples of Sanwu movies that have made a small fortune, but such examples are too rare, so it is impossible for theaters to invest too much affection in Sanwu movies.
It's not that Lao Zhou deliberately declined.
But even if Lao Zhou wanted to help, he couldn't help.
He can only arrange some garbage schedules for "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" during the depression period. At any rate, it can be regarded as an explanation. After all, the filming of this movie is finished, so it must not be released, right?
"Then it won't be shown."
After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan suddenly spoke.
Lao Zhou's expression changed.
This child is angry?
Facing Lin Yuan, he coaxed cautiously: "This movie is already shot, why not release it, let's also see the performance, if the movie performs well enough, maybe word of mouth will rise, word of mouth will rise, The theater chain will also increase the number of films"
Lin Yuan shook his head.
What Lao Zhou was talking about was the normal situation.
However, Lin Yuan knew that there were not enough film schedules, and the only film schedules were also scheduled during garbage time periods, which would most likely lead to the movie rushing to the street to die.
There are actually quite a lot of movies that try to counterattack.
However, few actually completed the counterattack.
Lin Yuan didn't intend to put his hopes on the illusory counterattack.
If it is normal, there is hope for the film's counterattack, after all??Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance" is considered to be quite a successful Zhou comedy on earth.
but now¡¡
Hope is slim.
Qin and Qi merged, and in the film market, major companies are fighting, gods are fighting, how many people are eyeing the summer film?
There is no filming
There are quite a few films with an investment of hundreds of millions over the same period, so isn¡¯t there one that impresses the audience? Why do you let a small-budget film stand out?
The basis of the counterattack is that there are no strong films in the same period, or that the early film schedule is not bad.
Take "Crazy Stone", the most classic counterattack case on our earth, as an example.
Everyone is talking about how the movie's counterattack is full of textbook significance, but it ignores an important factor:
When this movie was released, none of the other movies in the same period could beat it!
You know, the audience will also settle accounts.
For the same amount of money, is it more cost-effective to watch a blockbuster movie with special effects and experience the most incisive visual feast, or is it more cost-effective to watch a low-cost movie?
The answer is obvious.
So Lin Yuan didn't dare to bet that there would be no blockbuster movies during the July summer vacation.
Especially after listening to Lao Zhou's analysis, Lin Yuan realized more and more how dangerous this summer vacation is.
He had completely ignored this before.
This is also related to the fact that Lin Yuan is full of book knowledge and has no practical experience.
Fortunately, after Lao Zhou mentioned the issue of arranging films, Lin Yuan came to his senses.
Almost had an accident.
It is too unwise to compete with the group of big investors in the summer file for the box office.
After thinking about it, he already had a new plan, and he proposed his own idea to Lao Zhou: "You can broadcast it directly on the Internet instead of going to theaters."
"Don't go to theaters"
Only then did Lao Zhou understand what Lin Yuan meant, and his expression was somewhat surprised: "You mean, Wang Da?"
Wangda means big online movie.
Large online movies do not need to go to theaters, and the review standards are also low. Many low-cost movies rely on online movies to make money.
Of course, for the real big film companies, Wangda's money-making model is just a small business.
? If it is said that theater-line movies are operating well, the revenue is in the unit of 100 million
Well, big online movies can earn tens of millions.
Lao Zhou thought that Lin Yuan was blindly confident, just like every fledgling newcomer, thinking that his movie was the best in the world.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan was willing to take a step back and chose NetUniversity as the release channel for "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".
Think about it carefully, this may well be a good choice!
However, before Lao Zhou agreed, Lin Yuan immediately said: "Since I don't choose the cinema, the company won't be able to help me much."
Old Zhou smiled awkwardly.
The threshold for NetU is very low, even if the company does not come forward, "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" can be published.
For theater movies, movies with an investment of less than 10 million yuan have no sense of existence.
But in NetU, although the investment in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is not large, it is not considered a small batch.
"so¡¡"
Lin Yuan shared another reason for choosing NetU: "I hope the company will sell me "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", and I am personally willing to pay 10 million to buy out the movie."
Old Zhou: "???"
The company will spend money and people to make a movie for you. After the filming, you tell me, did you buy this movie privately?
It was the first time that Lao Zhou saw someone dare to pluck the company's wool so openly.
The company invested 9 million in the filming of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", and Lin Yuan spent 10 million to buy it, which seems to be a small profit for the company.
However, if the manpower, material resources and time costs are included, the company actually does not make any profit.
Because the crew is supported by the company, they go at the company's internal price.
If Lin Yuan wanted to make this movie privately before, with the same effect, it would be impossible to get it without more than 15 million.
But then again.
The company originally planned to waste the money, but Lin Yuan was willing to take over the order and pay for it himself, so he made some money in disguise
Is that a profit or a loss?
It probably depends on what the company thinks. Anyway, Lao Zhou was at a loss for a few seconds and felt a little confused.
"I agreed."
In the end, Lao Zhou agreed.
For projects with less than ten million yuan, Lao Zhou is now one of the company's executives and has the right to make decisions.
