Chapter 318 Paying Back the Kung Fu Wen Yi released the pigeons for the Oscar and the Hong Kong Film Awards, and the Golden Horse generals in Baodao at the end of June and early July were no exception. Wen Yi once again missed the award ceremony, which made many people regretful. But I didn't say that Wen Yi was like this. After all, he didn't let go once or twice. Moreover, this time the Oscars, the awards ceremony that the world pays attention to, were all released. For a TV series, such a long time has passed from preparation to filming, which is obviously beyond the expectations of many people. Although Wen Yi is making movies slower and slower, that is because the investment in movies is getting bigger and bigger, the scenes are getting bigger and bigger, and the quality of the movies is getting higher and higher. But TV series? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Maybe it¡¯s because there are too many shoddy TV series, more bloody TV series, and ridiculous TV series Of course, the quality of a film and television work is not measured by the length of time. But it has to be said that Wen Yi spent such a long time filming a TV series, which is obviously favored by people for its quality. However, although the filming of this TV series has not yet been completed, countless TV stations have already come to Jiayi Company to talk about it. Moreover, it is not just the major TV stations in China, but also TV stations in many countries around the world. Among them, there are several TV stations in the United States. Wen Yi¡¯s reputation in the world is probably unmatched by anyone now. And he has more fans than anyone else. His directing ability is undoubted, and his TV series naturally has too many TV stations interested. After all, Wen Yi himself stars in this TV series. There are not many movies starring Wen Yi, and many of them are just supporting roles. For example, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". This obviously does not satisfy the needs of his fans. But this TV series can. Although it is a TV series. But Wen Yi is the absolute protagonist. There are so many scenes, it goes without saying. Even if this TV series is shit, if Wen Yi is in it, it can attract his fans to lock in the TV station and increase the TV station's ratings. Everyone knows how much investment is involved in this TV series and how strong the cast is. How much an episode costs is naturally their biggest concern. As for the TV series itself, that has become secondary. Because the word "Wenyi" is the guarantee of quality. but. They obviously couldn't find out anything about this. Only Wen Yi knows when this movie will be completed, how long it will be, and how much it will cost per episode. Of course, they have not gained nothing. The filming of this movie has not yet been completed, and so far they have invested more than 100 million. Not Chinese currency, but US dollars. Converted into Chinese coins, that would be as much as six to seven billion. It can be said that it directly broke the highest record and doubled it several times. Hear this number. Many TV stations, especially domestic ones. Obviously, he knows that this TV series cannot be eaten by one or two TV stations alone. " Two months later, "The Romance of Dragon and Snake" was completed in a low-key manner and no media was invited. But this TV series has received too much attention and too many uninvited media outlets. After arriving, I was shocked and stunned when I saw the celebrity artists at the closing banquet. There are so many big names in China that it¡¯s hard to turn your eyes away. Moreover, there are countless international superstars. Too many faces to count. If you didn't know that this was the final banquet of a TV series, you would have thought it was some kind of world-class awards ceremony. If they all star in this TV series, the salary alone may not be enough to be solved by 100 or 200 million US dollars! Does this Wen Yi really dare to spend a lot of money? Is it worth doing this? Don¡¯t be afraid of losing money! Is your money really not money? "Is it worth it? Haha!" Wen Yi was asked, smiled and said, "Is it worth it?" "After all, this is just a TV series, and the investment cost is huge, which is a bit difficult to understand. Nowadays, it is just a TV series. , Mr. Wen Yi has invited so many stars to star in it. With such a luxurious lineup, the salary alone will be an astronomical figure. After all, it is not a movie, and the return will not be much for the drama itself. " said a reporter. If so many stars appear in movies, the rewards will be huge just based on their box office appeal and stimulation of the box office. But when it comes to being on a TV show, the rewards are minimal. ?That said, it¡¯s naturally not worth it. "Haha! I understand what you mean." Wen Yi smiled and said, "In terms of the cast, this TV series does surpass any other TV series, and even surpasses many movies. And you see the people present, They will also appear in my TV series, but most of them are guest appearances, and they don¡¯t even receive red envelopes. There are only one or two scenes that are cut out. " Wen Yi. A scene filmed, ?Of course, it is a martial arts conference, and most of the celebrities are spectators. Of course, there are also some who have gone on to become Kung Fu masters. "Mr. Wen Yi, you have invested so much in this TV series, how can you ensure that the cost is recovered? After all, if you invest one to two hundred million US dollars, even if the whole show has forty episodes, it will obviously not be profitable if each episode does not sell for three to five million US dollars. The cost is as high as 20 to 30 million Chinese dollars, even if several TV stations broadcast it at the same time, it is still a prohibitive price!" Another reporter said. "Haha. Are only domestic TV stations interested in my TV series?" Wen Yi smiled and said, "Besides, I didn't think about whether I would make money when filming this TV series, or whether I could recoup the cost. Otherwise If I don't have a movie, why should I make a TV series? " "Then why did Mr. Wen Yi put aside his new movie and shoot this TV series?" a reporter said quickly. Since it was reported that Wen Yi will be filming a TV series, this question has arisen in everyone's mind, and the director is now confused. Because Wen Yi has never accepted any interview before, nor has he made any reply. The reasons are even more divergent. "Why do you want to film this TV series? Haha, of course I just wanted to film it." Wen Yi smiled and said, "Well, you must have asked why you want to film it. In fact, many people have already guessed it. I, Wen Yi, am Xi Jinping. I am a martial artist, and kung fu has brought me so much. Kung fu has played a huge role in my current achievements. If I didn¡¯t know kung fu, I would never be where I am today. "The biggest purpose is to promote Kung Fu." "Because of Mr. Wen Yi, there have been several Chinese Kung Fu crazes around the world. Why doesn't Mr. Wen Yi make a Kung Fu movie but a TV series?" . "A movie, no matter how long it is, can only cover all the Chinese martial arts. Instead of shooting them one by one, using countless stories, and making countless series of movies, it would be easier to make a TV series directly. What's more, look There are far fewer people watching movies than watching TV!" Wen Yi said. It is true that there are not as many people watching movies as watching TV. Watching TV doesn¡¯t cost money, but watching movies does. This is why countless filmmakers yearn for the big screen. Because movies cost money, that will better reflect your own value. The next day, major media published news about Wen Yi's TV series "The Romance of Dragon and Snake" on their front pages. The major media have different focuses. The most obvious thing about it is in its title. "Reward for hard work"! This is obviously based on why Wen Yi filmed this TV series to solve the doubts in the public's mind. "A TV series with such a luxurious lineup that it can be called an epic"! This obviously starts from the cast of this TV series, using a star cast to attract attention. "A TV series that is too expensive to surpass!" And this, of course, starts with the investment in this TV series. This TV series is not only expensive, it is so expensive that it cannot be surpassed. In other words, in their opinion, no TV series would invest so much. Moreover, this report also analyzed the "money" scene in Wen Yi's TV series. ¡°However, what¡¯s puzzling is. For such an expensive TV series, after his analysis, it seems that not only will it not lose money, but it will also make a lot of money. Moreover, it is even possible to earn more than Wen Yi from filming movies. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
