my crew is not human

Chapter 64

Because of the ghosts, Yisheng Media basically focuses on its own investment in making films now.

But the reason isn't just for secrecy.

There are two more reasons.

The first one is that the existence of ghosts allows Li Xianyun to produce the most powerful special effects at no cost, maximize the return on investment ratio, and have strong confidence in profitability, so he dares to invest himself.

In addition, there is another reason, that is, it is not easy to be restrained by investors.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and the investors are the biggest.

In the original world, Rong Dasheng once collaborated with a photographer named Zhang Biao.

Zhang Biao got investment from Nanhai Province. The investor is a hotel owner who wants to use his hotel as a positioning to make an online movie.

Rong Dasheng wanted to ask Li Xianyun to do the script, but the price was too low, so he gave [-] yuan, but of course Li Xianyun didn't go.But later learned from Rong Dasheng that Zhang Biao and Rong Dasheng handed ten notebooks to the management at that time.

In the end, none of the employers were satisfied.

They came up with a theme of their own.

A road to self-redemption for an autistic patient!

Fuck!
Wangda is a purely commercial film, and there is no market for literary and artistic films. The hotel owner filmed "Self-salvation of Autistic Patients" and wanted commercial effects. Isn't this a waste of money?

What's the matter, do you want to promote the pleasant environment of our hotel, even autism can be cured?

Maybe it really means that.

Then Rong Dasheng and Zhang Biao, who can't write scripts, wrote this book for each other, because the whole process was written according to the other party's intentions. After reading it, the other party said: Well, I am very satisfied.

It's also fucking no one.

Fortunately, Li Xianyun didn't go at that time.

But Rong Dasheng and the others work with money. Of course, the investors can shoot whatever they want, so Zhang Biao, the photographer who attracted the investment, became the director. Rong Dasheng resisted the camera, and they went on their own paths Road—this is what Li Xianyun said about you being a photography director before, but Rong Dasheng's journey as a photographer in this world started from Li Xianyun.

As for the film, the investment was 100 million, and it was first transferred to an intermediary company in other places. As the counterparty, 40 was deducted directly. 60 will be transferred to the producer, and another 20 will be deducted.With the remaining 40 yuan, other people will do more, and the final actual shooting cost is only 22 yuan.It was originally a deadly script, coupled with the deceitful investment, the end of the film can be known with your toes.

Investors are laymen with funds in their hands and checks in their hands, so their demands can be as outrageous as they want.

There are all kinds of investors, so there are also all kinds of outrageous demands.

It must have a high box office, it must be artistic, it must have a theme of sublimation of humanistic feelings, and it must be low-risk, and it must have a girl. Regardless of whether the acting skills are good or bad, this girl has to be the leading role. three……

Fuck, your sister, why don't you say that all the good things in the world belong to you?

The fact is, the more requirements there are, and the more outsiders guide the insiders, the greater the risk.If you want this and that for one thing, it usually means that this thing can’t be done—professional veterans can’t do it well.

Because the first premise of professionalism is not to set an unattainable goal for yourself.

The layman is: everything is possible!

Film and television companies are experts, but in order to attract investment, they will not tell investors this.Investors take it for granted that they are awesome, and they know everything without entering the industry, and I know everything!
The consequence is that while most of the requirements are met, the only requirement that cannot be met is the box office. It would be good if the harvest can have one-tenth of the investment-one should not be too greedy!I have satisfied nine of your ten requirements, and I am worthy of you if you are short of one, right?

So some bad movies are not only the fault of the producers, but also the fault of the investors--if you don't know how to direct them blindly, it's no wonder they aren't bad.

And to make this kind of film, the producer will not lose money even if he does not steal money.

Because in this case, the film and television company is the same as the construction team on the construction site-it's none of my business if your house can't be sold?You can't afford to lose my salary!
Before filming Reversed Time Hunting, Jiang Zheng once found a friend in the business world. The other party was very interested in movies and was willing to invest purely and not interfere with the business. The risk of the kid being exposed was basically non-existent, as long as you satisfied my sister, artistry and other needs.

After listening to the other party's series of conditions, Li Xianyun directly told the other party to operate according to your requirements, and the result is: girls can have girls, but winning prizes is impossible, investment is 300 million, and loss is 250.

The other party was not happy at the time.

Who the hell invests to lose money?

The other party will not feel that their demands are outrageous, but only that the producer is incompetent.

Things just don't work out.

Jiang Zheng also complained that Li Xianyun was too straightforward, but Li Xianyun said: My principle is not to use bad money.To be the master, investors have to take risks.A layman doesn't want to take risks and still directs blindly, and if I do badly, I will ruin my reputation.

Jiang Zheng said: You have to show face that you are not a mature boss yet!

Do business!

Do you think you are selling a product?

No!

What sells is conscience!It's the face!

What kind of money do you earn?
Most of the time, Li Xianyun listened to Jiang Zheng's advice, but in this case, Li Xianyun insisted on his principles.

Because of these reasons, Yisheng Media's film and television production is basically invested by itself at this stage.

It's true that with your style, it's hard to attract investment—no matter how reasonable your words are, he's not a rarity for the truth.

If you don't know how to brag, it's too difficult to get involved in the film and television industry!

Li Xianyun was born as a writer, and the pen is full of flowers. The universe is overthrown and the extinction of all races is only a matter of flipping;I deeply feel that my eloquence is not good, and I have nothing to do to practice my eloquence skills every day, but I use my strength in the wrong direction-this is not a problem of eloquence, but a problem of the bottom line.He either doesn't understand a lot of things, or he just doesn't want to do them.

So if he didn't have a brat, it would only be evil if he could do it in this style.

Yang Yuan doesn't understand Li Xianyun's secret, but he can understand Li Xianyun's emphasis on dominance—every mother hates investors' meddling and bluffing.Investors who don't know how to do it will make bad movies if they direct blindly, and investors who know how to do it are not good...you can't make cheap money if you know how to do it!

Therefore, film and television companies are just like investors, they are very bitch, and they hope that you don't know how to do it, and they are afraid that you don't know how to do it.

How else can we say that the best investor in the world is the coal boss?
As long as the girl is in place, the money will be in place for you, and you are willing to let go.

It's a pity that there are too few such investors, and whoever has one in their hands is a favorite in the industry.

Yang Yuan thought that he understood Li Xianyun, and felt that the problem was not serious.

Don't you just want to take the lead?easy to say.Film and television companies are experts, and they will not be easily cheated when they cooperate with each other. As long as they make money, they don't care who leads them.

The real key, to put it bluntly, is the issue of discounting resources.

As long as this holographic projection technology is not priced at 3000 million, then things will be easy to negotiate.

So Yang Yuandao: "Theatrical films are larger in scale, require more, and have a team of hundreds of people. Director Li, do you still want to be the director yourself?"

Uh……

Li Xianyun became inexplicably nervous.

A decent theater requires at least 3000 to [-] million investment.

From 500 million to 3000 million, the team size may reach more than 300 people.

Regardless of the fact that the number is just a little too high, every time the number increases by an order of magnitude, the subsequent troubles at hand will also increase exponentially.

It is common to see one person with multiple positions in big web sites, but in large productions, there are multiple people with one position. Even the position of an assistant director can pull out a bunch of lists, but in Hunting Against Time, the assistant director?Sorry, not at all.

They didn't even save the most basic actors and assistant directors, because Li Xianyun and Ren Zhi got rid of it.

Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to see the producer and director in a certain big production.Even if there are, they are mostly nominal, and there are a bunch of other names on the job.

After experiencing Ren Zhi's incident, Li Xianyun also realized that he could not work too much part-time, and he was really too busy.

He still hasn't fulfilled his responsibilities as a company boss...

Now I have just finished filming a 500 million online movie, and I am going to go to the big theaters again.

To be honest, I have no idea.

But it is absolutely impossible not to be a director, after all, all the ghosts are in my own hands.

At this moment, he nodded and said: "I'm sure I'll be the director, this matter can't be discussed. But it's up to theaters..."

After thinking for a while, he answered instinctively: "Why don't you consider cooperating with an online university with a level of tens of millions?"

Depend on!
Still guilty.
