Don't give me black technology

Chapter 60 Reluctantly Accepted
"You want us to invest?" Meng Xiaobai made a surprised tone on purpose, and said, "It means that we don't make any money, but we still want to invest in you?"

In fact, he had wanted to invest in the other party for a long time. First, he trusted their own special effects, and second, he felt that the other party's film production was not bad.The most important point is that you really can't make much money doing special effects with them. It's better to invest in movies. If the box office hits, you can still make a lot of money.

I thought so in my heart, but Meng Xiaobai must let the other party speak out, so as to have the initiative to negotiate conditions!

"Mr. Meng, listen to me!" Dumpling explained, "Now our total investment is only 6000 million! We can count your special effects production costs as 600 million! As long as our movie is 5000 million will lose money!"

"This "Magic Boy Nezha", I bet it can get [-] million at the box office! It can even reach the [-] million level of "White Snake". "

"You put it simply, don't think I don't know how many movies are going to hit the street every year!" Meng Xiaobai retorted.

"There are risks to be rewarded!" Dumpling spared no effort to promote her work, Meng Xiaobai struggled with him for a while, and then said: "Then I will forcefully think about it."

"Also, our special effects works are only worth 600 million? Is it too low?"

"600 million is enough, otherwise the other investors will be dissatisfied!" Dumpling said.

"Then you don't want to do those wonderful special effects shots at the end?" Meng Xiaobai asked.

"What? You mean, the special effects shot of Nezha and Ao Bing resisting the catastrophe at the end?" Dumpling asked in surprise. That scene was according to his idea.

It is the historical background of the entire earth that flows rapidly in time, the stars move, the sun and the moon change, and the birth of life returns to silence!
Because this shot was too difficult and the production cost was too high, Dumpling and other producers had already decided to give up. Meng Xiaobai brought it up again at this time.

"Of course!" Meng Xiaobai said.

"Can this... be done?" Of course, Dumpling hopes that his idea will come true, but five special effects companies have already rejected his request.

"Yes!" Meng Xiaobai replied affirmatively.

"Okay! That's great! As long as it can be produced, the investment amount of the work can of course be increased! Whoever disagrees with me will talk to him!" Dumpling said loudly, her voice full of surprises.

The dumplings did not disappoint Meng Xiaobai. After his insistence, the production team of "Nezha the Devil" decided to let Deep Space Digital become the investor, and the investment amount was calculated according to the cost of special effects works.

As for Deep Space Digital, they will complete all the remaining special effects shots, and perfect and enrich the original special effects scenes. The cost of this set is 1000 million for them!

1000 million sounds like a lot.But for movie special effects, it’s not too much. For those big movies, sometimes a special effects shot of more than ten seconds will cost this money! Because "The Devil Boy Nezha" is an animated film, it costs less.

In this way, Meng Xiaobai suddenly became one of the investors of this animation film, and he was also a big investor accounting for one-seventh of the total investment amount!
After becoming a film investor, Meng Xiaobai paid more attention to the production of special effects. He even found time to personally go into battle and guide the production of difficult scenes.

Originally, the producer thought it would take three months to complete the task, but Deep Space Digital completed it in only half a month!And the finished product is even better than expected!
The producer also couldn't wait to perfect the film. It took more than a month to pass the review as quickly as possible, and it was ready to be released!
In the past two months, the data marketing team arranged by Meng Xiaobai has also achieved some results.The advertising delivery system they made by themselves has won unanimous praise from advertisers.

The marketing team took the opportunity to launch the "personal advertising" model. Those individual e-commerce merchants or Internet celebrities can spend their own money to advertise on "Watch Me", and different costs correspond to different promotion models.

Because their advertising conversion rate is very high, the number of individuals and businesses willing to advertise on "Look at Me" has gradually increased.

According to the financial department's data, the company's advertising revenue will be able to equalize its operating costs next month, and it will start making profits the next month!
Quite rare for a start-up!For many Internet products, it takes hundreds of millions or billions of money to barely reach a balance of payments, but Deep Space Digital does all this without half a year!

……

"The Devil Boy Nezha" is about to be released. It's not a festival, nor is it a good day. The release date is an ordinary day.

This is because the producers really don't have the funds to promote it, and they don't have the capital to compete with other films for the schedule. In order to make money for the release, they have to hurry.

Coincidentally, the movie "Magic City Fortress", which is known as a big production, the light of domestic science fiction movies, and the king of traffic, will also be released at the same time.All of a sudden, it caused great competitive pressure on "The Devil Boy Nezha"!

Because he is also an investor, it is rare for Meng Xiaobai to pay attention to the relevant situation all the time.

"These days there are advertisements for "Magic City Fortress" everywhere!" Gao Yuan said during lunch after get off work. On her phone interface, the promotional poster of "Magic City Fortress" popped up.

"Super traffic star, big director, big production, adaptation of famous writer's work..." Gao Yuan looked at it and asked, "Mr. Meng, can the animation movie you invested in compare to this one?"

"How is that possible!" Gan Huarong shook his head and said, "Animated movies can earn [-] to [-] million at the box office, which is a good result! This is a serious sci-fi movie, at least one billion at the box office!"

"I don't think so!" Meng Xiaobai said, "We are making it with our heart. Does the leading actor of "Magic City Fortress" have any acting skills?"

"It seems not." Gao Yuan thought for a while and said seriously.

"Yeah, we'll find out when it's released." Meng Xiaobai said.

"Then why don't you advertise!" Gao Yuan asked, "The producer is too poor! I can't even see any promotion when I open the movie website!"

"There's no way around this." Meng Xiaobai said helplessly, "The director is also doing his best to promote it! Look!"

As he said that, he showed Gao Yuan his phone. On Weibo, the director Dumpling was posting vigorously on Weibo to promote his movie, and the number of people following him seemed to be less than 1000!

"Just like this?" Gao Yuan couldn't help laughing, and said, "The director really worked hard, let me see what he posted."

On Weibo, the latest news of Dumplings: "Next Friday, "Nezha the Devil" will be released in shock! It took five years to create, the most exciting plot and graphics... Special thanks to Deep Space Digital Studio for the special effects produced by our film , It’s so amazing! You will never regret buying a ticket!”
