"Well, the maximum will not exceed one hundred thousand dollars."
Wang Han nodded.
If he knew that the production cost of the film was actually more than 10,000 US dollars, he might be even more surprised. As long as the filming is good, the legend can be reproduced.
? Wang Han had read the Ghost Shadow Record several times at that time.
Natural memory is deep.
Including many details, Wang Han feels a little immersive until now when he thinks about it.
It's not that I'm afraid, but this movie.
It's that simple that Wang Han can copy it all.
"If you just want to make a short film, this is enough, but you need to reduce the labor cost, and then you don't need to hire someone who has become famous. Those bitches are simply too expensive, and they will ask you for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Why don't they go grab the money?"
Chen Xiao also asked back.
Wang Han smiled wryly.
Afterwards, Chen Xiao said: "How should I put it, your idea is quite good, but I think you have never been involved in this aspect, and there is a high probability that you will lose everything in the end, so be prepared. In the film industry, it doesn¡¯t mean that you can get in if you want to, and you have to go through some things that cost nothing in the early stage.¡±
Wang Han nodded and said, "Of course, with Uncle Chen's help, I think that no matter how much money I lose, at least I have a direction, so I really need to trouble Uncle Chen."
"Hmm are you prepared for this?"
Since he wanted to make a movie, he wouldn't be unprepared, right?
If Wang Han looked at him in bewilderment, then Chen Xiao could only be helpless.
It is a joke in itself not to prepare for filming.
However, Chen Xiao felt that even if Wang Han prepared it, he couldn't prepare anything. What good things could a college student in his early twenties make?
It's not that he looked down on Wang Han, but subconsciously, he replaced Wang Han with him at that time. At that time, he was like a headless chicken, but there was no senior like him to help him lead the way.
For any young man, if there is a professional senior to help him lead the way.
This is a very honorable thing.
Hopeful but unattainable!
Wang Han nodded, and said: "I already have the direction of the film and the general content of the script, which can be done in a day or two. In fact, I'm already writing it."
"Oh?" Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Can you tell me, what kind of movie do you want to shoot?"
"Thriller, suspense, and horror types, these are the labels of movies."
Wang Han smiled.
"" Chen Xiao paused, then said, "How should I put it, the horror movies in the American market are indeed much better than those in the domestic market, but the movies that can really develop are only those movies that are made with heart and soul. If you are making a simple film, it is not recommended for thrillers. Because this kind of film requires professional actors and realistic props. It is difficult to find actors alone. Historically, this type of film, There are too few that can stand up, for example, the first part of Saw last year, which brought in more than 50 million US dollars at the box office, is this considered a success?"
Wang Han nodded: "Indeed."
However, the shooting cost of Chainsaw is not too low.
Compared with the low-cost and high-return movies that can almost go down in history like Ghost Story, it is naturally worse.
Of course, Wang Han likes both movies.
Don't talk about which is good and which is not.
"The one who filmed Saw is also a Chinese director, but he is from Malaysia. I also admire that director very much. In fact, the success of a movie has a lot to do with who the director is. If the director is poor If not, the movie that comes out will be much less satisfactory."
Chen Xiao sighed with emotion.
Wang Han said: "His filming cost, if I remember correctly, I remember it was a little over one million dollars. Calculated, it was nearly 10 million yuan."
"Yes, it took only one million dollars to shoot such a movie. It really depends on luck. Of course, his strength is also quite strong. I can only say that I admire him. If my movie can reap investment At the box office that costs ten times as much, I am already very happy."
Chen Xiao smiled.
When it comes to this topic, Chen Xiao is very interested.
This is his job.
Of course, don't look at Chen XiaoHe talked freely, but in many cases, because of some things, Chen Xiao would become very disgusted with his job.
No one can be happy when any interest becomes his own profession, and the income is not high and the mix is ??not good.
This is a fact.
It is undeniable.
"So little brother, do you also want to create a low-cost and high-return movie? But I suggest a budget of several hundred thousand dollars, tens of thousands of dollars is too little."
Chen Xiao shook his head.
Wang Han said: "That's not what it means"
"With uncle, there's no need to hide it. Uncle knows what you think."
Chen Xiao smiled.
""
Wang Han naturally didn't say anything.
The latter has said so, and it would be inappropriate for him to refute.
Of course, he really thought so.
Who doesn't want every movie to be the same as Ghost Story, with tens of thousands of effort and hundreds of millions of rewards?
This is legend.
It's really hard to achieve.
Hell-level difficulty.
"In this way, let's make a bet. If you can exceed ten times the box office, all the profits of this movie will belong to you. I will direct it to you for free. How about it?"
Chen Xiao smiled.
Wang Han's eyes lit up: "Really?"
This is not what he said.
"Of course it's true. I never tell lies, especially with juniors."
Chen Xiao looked at Wang Han with a smile on his face.
He thought of himself at that time before, full of longing for the future, full of infinite vigor and vitality for the future.
Unfortunately, reality gave him a heavy slap.
Let him understand what his position is.
Indeed, he did well.
But in the eyes of the people around him, he can only be said to be so-so, the so-called doing well, just from the perspective of the people in his hometown, when the people in the village heard that Chen Xiao started a company and worked in the United States, how awesome ?
But only people like them who have worked hard abroad know how sad they are.
Others only see their brilliance, but never see their sacrifices for life and prospects, and the feeling of being inferior to others.
Everyone is like this.
"Thenwhat if it's a hundred times the income."
Wang Han said subconsciously.
"One hundred times the income?" Chen Xiao looked at Wang Han, and then sneered, "One hundred times the income, I call you brother, and I will give you 30% of the shares for free!" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
