Chapter 185 183: Inspiration brought by Yang Chaoyue

"Director Zhang, Director Xu, long time no see!"

Duoyu Media reception room.

As soon as Wang Duoyu opened the door, he saw Lao Mouzi and Xu Laoguai.

Whether it is Lao Mouzi or Xu Laoguai, this is not the first time Wang Duoyu has seen them.

Needless to say, Lao Mouzi has just collaborated on "You Who Came from the Star".

As for Old Monster Xu, he had seen it at the previous Academy Awards.

At that time, Old Monster Xu even greeted Wang Duoyu.

"President Wang, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Mr. Wang."

The two also greeted Wang Duoyu.

No matter what they think in their hearts at this time, they still have to work hard on the surface.

"Let's sit down and talk."

Wang Duoyu motioned for the two to sit down, and then sat opposite them.

"I'm not going to be secretive. I think the two directors have probably understood why I came to you this time. What do the two directors think about "The Legend of Emperor Xin?"

Hearing this, Lao Mouzi's face obviously darkened a lot, but it was still much better than the last filming of "You Who Came from the Star".

Anyway, this time it's a big production, and it's a film and TV series, so it's not a shame.

Of course, the most important thing is that the TV series has already been filmed, and it doesn't matter what happens after the beginning.

As for Old Monster Xu, it doesn't matter even more, he started out filming TV dramas.

And in Xiangjiang, how many directors only make movies and not TV series?

Basically mixed shots.

In the 90s, when everyone had no jobs, even tertiary films were rushed to be filmed, let alone TV dramas.

In Xiangjiang, although the status of a director is high, it is slightly better than that of an actor. They all just regard it as a job, without any special status.

This is much better than the inland directors and actors who don’t know each other.

"Jiang Wen told me about this two days ago, and I probably understand your thoughts, Mr. Wang, but my personal opinion is to start with the actors first. After all, this time, Mr. Wang, you are planning to shoot a large-scale IP. For the first work, we should try our best to make corresponding preparations in terms of actor contracts, as well as the personal issues of actors, you should understand this better than me, Mr. Wang."

The old man spoke first.

In fact, he doesn't have much opinion on "The Legend of Emperor Xin", but he still has a big opinion on Wang Duoyu.

In particular, he understands Wang Duoyu's casting requirements very well.

Ordinary film and television works are fine. If it is really a big investment and big production, you really need to be a little more cautious in this regard.

After all, it is a big-screen movie. Although the special effects take the first place, acting skills are also very important.

At this point, Lao Mouzi's words still carry a lot of weight.

In a few years, Wang Duoyu might chat with him about Emperor Haotian.

Emperor Haotian can use it, so why not care about me?

Jing Tian, ​​you have been trained well, what else can't be solved?

But thinking about it in his heart, Wang Duoyu still agrees with Lao Mouzi on the surface.

"Director Zhang is right. We can discuss this point later. What about Director Xu? Do you have any opinions on "The Legend of Emperor Xin?"

Old Monster Xu touched his chin.

"In fact, I personally still think that in terms of special effects, it depends on what type of special effects Mr. Wang should use. The current era is developing too fast. If it changes with the times, it may deviate from the original intention of some gods and become an alternative technology. Cultivating Immortals, there will be a feeling of nondescript. But if it is based on the traditional special effects of Xianxia, ​​it will either follow the trend of the past, or it will take more time and experience to design scenes and actions.”

Wang Duoyu nodded in agreement.

Old Monster Xu is indeed an expert in this field, and he immediately saw the key points of the special effects problem.

In fact, Wang Duoyu had thought about this question before.

There are several obvious examples in previous lives.

"Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" and the follow-up "Jiang Ziya" and "Yang Jian" are full of technological immortality.

To put it nicely, it is called keeping pace with the times and not sticking to one pattern.

To put it bluntly, it is neither fish nor fowl, and you don't even look at what era your movie is set in. Why don't you just make an atomic bomb, isn't it much more powerful than your so-called fairy art?

The taste of technology everywhere is really impressive.

"In fact, my personal view on the present is also the same, so I think it is in the design of the scene."

The three of them discussed for another whole morning in the reception room.

Unlike the last discussion with Jiang Wen, this time Wang Duoyu already had a complete script, so the main discussion points of the three were still around the script.

The deeper the discussion, the more places Wang Duoyu circled on the script.

Then he discovered something very serious.

If this is really done in every scene, then hundreds of millions will be spent on special effects for movies alone.

And that's just a movie in less than two hours!
If we do the same in TV dramas, then in the end, the special effects alone will be able to spend 20 billion extra fish.

After all, a TV series can last more than two hours.

Coupled with some other expenses, this 20 billion is not enough!
Thinking of this, Wang Duoyu felt a headache.

He really doesn't care about spending money, but he cares about the effect of spending money!

Moreover, the investment in the TV series is really so large, what price should be sold at that time?
That's a sky-high price, even for Wang Duoyu!
Will anyone really be willing to buy it?
Those video sites are not fools, they don't care how much you spend, they only care about your final selling price.

It's like "The Heirs", excluding the money Mr. Jin lent to Youku, Youku itself paid more than 4000 million, based on the price of more than 200 million for one episode.

This price is basically the current market price of TV dramas.

Of course, if the market response is particularly good, you can add more, but it is impossible to add more than one billion yuan for a TV series, right?

That's outrageous!

Unless those in power are out of their minds, it is absolutely impossible to make such a price!
Old monster Xu and Lao Mouzi also saw the problem.

Seeing Wang Duoyu frowning, the two of them didn't know what to say.

When it comes to making movies, those two are experts, but when it comes to doing business, they are obviously not as good as Wang Duoyu.

They don't know what Wang Duoyu thinks now, so naturally they don't know how to persuade him.

"Before you know it, it's time for dinner. It's inconvenient to entertain the two directors today. I'm sorry."

Wang Duoyu pretended to glance at the watch, and then gave the order to evict the guest.

Lao Mouzi and Xu Laoguai are also good people, and they also said that Wang Duoyu was polite, and they could deal with it casually, and said that they would be ready at any time after Wang Duoyu figured out the project development model.

The people at Jingtian had communicated with them before coming here, and they knew that this time they would not be able to escape.

Coupled with the communication this morning, they also discovered how big Wang Duoyu's investment in this area is. As long as Wang Duoyu solves the problem of profitability, the project will start shooting regardless of whether it will be profitable in the end.

For directors of their level, ordinary scripts are already hard to attract them.

Except for two, the stories were too good to be turned down.

Or the investment is too high, so high that they can play at will what they dare not play before.

Obviously, Wang Duoyu belongs to the second type and at the same time meets some of the conditions of the first type.

Wang Duoyu's script was really carefully polished.

Coupled with Wang Duoyu's lack of money, as long as Wang Duoyu nods, they are still happy to start filming.

Anyway, Jiang Wen, the director who worked with them this time, is also a great director, so he is not ashamed of his identity.

After they left, Wang Duoyu returned to the office and began to think about how to make money from this IP alone.

Before, he only thought that he could have some fun through the movie mode, and by the way, a TV series can be derived to solve the script problem in the future.

But the problem now is that you have to spend money to play flowers, and you spend money together, and you spend a lot of money.

If he can't make a profit, it means he is losing money and playing with his mood.

Although Wang Duoyu generally doesn't care about money, it is impossible to ignore this kind of drama and lose more than one billion yuan.

He doesn't have many billions to lose.

As time passed by, Wang Duoyu had countless ideas in his mind, but they were all overturned in the end.

No matter what he did, he seemed unable to get others to pay for his film and television works with billions of dollars.

The best way to deal with it is to sell the first TV series at a loss, but only sell the premiere rights.

Wait until the first one becomes a phenomenon-level hit before making a profit on the second one.

But even if it becomes a phenomenon-level explosion, the price of more than one billion is generally still unaffordable.

Even if there are multiple rounds of sales, whether it can pay back is still a serious problem.

dong dong dong~
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the office.

"Enter."

As Wang Duoyu's voice fell, Yang Chaoyue's figure appeared in the office.

"Boss, why don't you go to the cafeteria for lunch today?"

"not in the mood."

"That won't work. People are iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry. No matter what you do, you must eat first!"

Yang Chaoyue said seriously.

But when she finished speaking, she found that Wang Duoyu ignored her at all, so she walked up to Wang Duoyu curiously and shook her finger.

"Boss, what do you think?"

Wang Duoyu looked up at her helplessly.

"Don't bother me, I'm thinking about something now."

"Oh~"

Yang Chaoyue pouted, then walked to the sofa in the office and lay down, took out his mobile phone and began to browse Moments by himself.

Wang Duoyu didn't bother to pay attention to her.

After a while, Wang Duoyu vaguely heard Yang Chaoyue muttering something, and the sound of payment came from the mobile phone, so he couldn't help but look up at her.

By the way, he rubbed his frowning brows, planning to take a rest first.

Long time thinking made Wang Duoyu feel a little tired.

"What else did you buy?"

"Ah? Buy? Boss, you misunderstood. It was a former colleague of mine. His family had an accident and got seriously ill. He was just launching a water drop chip. I supported it a little bit."

"Oh."

Wang Duoyu responded casually.

However, Yang Chaoyue became interested.

"Boss, you don't know how good this water drop is. My colleague has already raised a lot of money through this. He said that if this continues, his mother's surgery fee will be enough after a while."

"Oh."

Hearing Yang Chaoyue's words, Wang Duoyu sneered.

it is good?But come on, the capital can have a few good people.

Even Wang Duoyu doesn't think he is a good person most of the time, let alone others.

There will be thunderous explosions in the future after this water drop chip.

and many more!

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Wang Duoyu's mind, but he was a little uncertain. He frowned and thought for a long time but couldn't get an accurate clue.

He couldn't help looking at Yang Chaoyue, "What did you just say?"

"Me?" Yang Chaoyue pointed to himself uncertainly, "I said the water drop is ready."

"Why do you think it's good?"

"Because he helped some people raise medical expenses and saved their lives!"

"But what if the information of the person seeking help is false? Isn't this just cheating money?"

"How could it be? Boss, people who seek help usually send some test results of themselves in the hospital and themselves."

Yang Chaoyue talked a lot about it, and it can be seen that this girl really knows this thing very well.

"Why do you know so well?"

Wang Duoyu's eyes were a little weird.

However, Yang Chaoyue just sighed.

"I can't help it. Many of my former colleagues and friends, as well as relatives from my hometown, their financial conditions are not very good, and sometimes a serious illness will kill them, so I have met with Shuidichou many times. Come on, let’s understand a little bit.”

Hearing this, Wang Duoyu was also silent.

This is an area he can't touch, so he can only comfort Yang Chaoyue.

"In the future, if you have a close friend or colleague who has such a situation, you can go to Elsa to get an application. I will pay for it. As long as it is really seriously ill, the colleague this time is also fine."

Wang Duoyu suddenly said this not because he sent it out of kindness, but simply because Yang Chaoyue and her colleagues thought about how to solve the problem of IP profitability!
"Ah? Really?!!"

Yang Chaoyue looked at Wang Duoyu with bright eyes.

Wang Duoyu turned his head.

He saw something strange in Yang Chaoyue's eyes.

He doesn't like this.

"Well, go, I have something else to do."

"Yeah! The boss loves you so much! I'm going to find Sister Ai now!"

Yang Chaoyue jumped out of the office.

After she left, Wang Duoyu also sent a message to Elsa, asking her to verify the situation, and if it was true, transfer the money directly from his personal account.

After solving Yang Chaoyue's matter, Wang Duoyu looked at the pen and paper in front of him again.

Well, in this case, it will not affect the profit!

　Two shifts, sleep, go to the hospital to get the report in the afternoon, and update at night
