City: Become a principal from junior college!

Chapter 489 Documentaries also make money!

In addition to Sleeping Beauty, there are two comedy movies in the pipeline.

One is called "The Richest Man in Xihong City", and the other is called "People on the Wrong Road".

The Richest Tomato Man is also the original cast member of "Charlotte".

The people in distress were caused by another wave of students.

Ye Chen glanced at the scripts a few times and felt that these two films were also very good.

At least the script looks funny.

Comedies have always been the best at making a big impact out of small things.

The previous Charlotte Trouble is an example.

And besides movies.

There are also two TV dramas that have been approved and are in preparation.

One is called "The Hidden Corner", which is an adaptation of a script. After reading this book, some students thought it was very suitable for adaptation.

The college bought the copyright.

It is a TV series involving suspense and crime.

Ye Chen glanced at it a few times and found it interesting.

The other project that passed the review and approval is called "Love in the Courtyard".

I also bought the original work and adapted it into a script.

But Ye Chen glanced at the introduction and script for a few times, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

A story that basically takes place in a courtyard house.

It’s full of all kinds of things where you’re trying to trick me and I’m trying to trick you.

The protagonist is even more of a licker and a taker.

After glancing at the character profiles, I saw that the people in them were all weird.

What kind of mental state are my students in before they want to film such a bloody script?

Seeing the expression on his principal's face.

The person in charge guessed what the principal was thinking and smiled softly: "Principal, this kind of drama is for middle-aged and elderly people."

"Just like the rebirth of online novels, the main theme is a feeling."

"Now TV is mainly watched by middle-aged and elderly people."

"The cost is not high and the ratings will not be bad."

"Most of the roles are not very suitable for our students, so we have to recruit actors from outside..."

Ye Chen listened to the person in charge and shook his head.

Of course Ye Chen doesn't care about the cost.

Ye Chen was more curious about which student applied for this project.

The person in charge immediately laughed when he heard this: "It's a student in the directing class. As far as I know, it seems to be his mother. She is very dissatisfied with the TV series in the past two years. She feels that there are fewer sad dramas and they can't make her have mood swings. ,Feeling bored……"

"So this student has been carefully planning for more than a year and plans to surprise his mother when the time comes."

Ye Chen's mouth twitched...

Good guy, this is too filial!

Aren't you afraid that your mother will get too involved in the plot when watching TV and stand up to slap you?

……

In addition to normal commercial TV series and movies.

There are also projects that are not aimed at making money.

Such as a documentary project.

Documentaries basically don’t make money.

But the existence of documentaries is meaningful, regardless of art or not.

Mainly records.

Commercial movies, TV series, etc., even if they reflect another era, they will compromise in many aspects for the sake of commercialization.

But documentaries are different.

He will truly document a lot for interested viewers to learn about.

There are also students in Star Academy who want to make documentaries.

After all, not every student wants to be a star or become rich.

In this regard, Xingchen Film and Television Company maintains a supportive attitude.

The first documentary project also made Ye Chen's eyes shine.

The name of this documentary is "Students of Star Academy".

This documentary will select one student from each major at Star College to follow.

Starting from my freshman year, I continued filming until I graduated and entered the workforce...

In order to record the daily life of Xingchen students, ask them why they want to join Xingchen College, what changes will happen to their interpersonal relationships after entering Xingchen College, what kind of treatment will they receive after graduation, and what kind of life can they live in the future.

We will even interview some students who have graduated many years ago to see how they are doing.

And not just for one episode.

Instead, there are plans to film a series.

One is released every year.

Starting from the culinary arts major at Xingchen College, to all subsequent majors, all of them will be taken into consideration.

Ye Chen is also very interested in this documentary project.

Although Ye Chen, as the principal, has a general understanding of what kind of life students in each major will lead after graduation.

But that’s understanding in a macro sense.

Ye Chen was also very curious. An ordinary student went from entering school to graduating, then entering the society, getting married and having children.

Along the way, what changes will happen to them because of Star Academy?

Where will their lives go?

……

"Principal, because our graduates are spread all over the world..."

"So the cost of filming is relatively high."

"The shooting cost of a film may be upwards of 30 million."

The person in charge introduced.

RMB 30 million for a film is indeed not cheap.

Especially since documentaries are not very profitable yet.

Mostly you lose whatever you put in.

But Ye Chen didn't care about this.

The entertainment industry is indeed very profitable, but compared to high technology and the like, those profits are somewhat insignificant.

Whether it is setting up a film and television company, or setting up an animation, game company, etc.

In addition to providing employment opportunities for students.

Mainly for cultural dissemination.

Let more people around the world understand and yearn for China.

At the same time, Aiwujiwu fell in love with Xingchen Academy because he liked the works of Xingchen Academy.

The country that has achieved the most in this regard is undoubtedly the beautiful country.

Through various Hollywood movies, a dreamy lighthouse country has been created in the hearts of countless citizens around the world.

It has attracted countless wealthy and skilled people to settle and become naturalized.

Let the beautiful country become more powerful and harvest the world easily.

Island countries have also done well in this regard.

Through animation, a large number of young people have a good impression of them. The impact this brings is far more important than the little money the movie makes.

……

As for Ye Chen, he naturally doesn't care whether his entertainment works make money or lose money.

So I don’t care about the money spent on documentaries at all.

Marven asked a few more questions and learned that there were several documentary projects.

Because of the investment, the time cost is temporarily backlogged and there is no approval.

Ye Chen simply found it and turned it over.

"New City Rising"

This documentary is planned to record the birth of a new district from scratch.

The target of recording is naturally Xingchen New Area.

The documentary plans to explore the significance of Xingchen New District from various aspects such as architecture, humanities, and economy.

Record the construction process of the entire new district.

At the same time, it records the emergence of the new district and its significance to people.

What significance will it have for Tianhai City and China?

Where can this city go in the end?

There is also a "Star Diet Pill".

I plan to photograph people who were originally suffering from diseases and poverty due to obesity, after they got the Xingchen diet pill.

In addition to changes in weight, what other changes will they experience in their lives?

There are a few more besides.

Ye Chen looked at these documentary project applications and couldn't help but smile.

My students are really concerned about the college.

But that's a good thing.

On the one hand, it will greatly improve the influence of students.

For example, the birth of a new city.

The birth of a city must be grand and shocking.

The audience will be amazed when the documentary is finally aired.

And this emotion will undoubtedly be passed on to Star Academy.

The same is true for "Star Diet Pill".

This type of documentary must have a cruel start.

Then the person who was recorded was reborn through the Star Weight Loss Pill and embarked on a new life.

This tear-jerking effect makes me full.

It can create a deeper college image for Star College.

These may seem invisible.

But in fact, it can help Star Academy gain huge convenience in its global expansion.

At the same time, the development of Star Academy is indeed too fast.

Ye Chen sometimes forgets what it was like when he first reopened the school.

If only someone could document this.

One day in the future, I can slowly watch the video and reflect on everything.

Therefore, Ye Chen directly approved these projects.

If commercial films make money this year, it would be best if they can cover the cost of documentaries.

But even commercial films were rushed.

Then Xingchen Academy can directly allocate funds and provide money to make films.

In short, documentaries must be shot.

Besides, who said documentaries can never make money?

Some documentaries mainly focus on people, and the subject matter is not popular with everyone.

For example, some are about folk customs, and some are about cultural inheritance that have been eliminated.

This is similar all over the world, and young people don’t catch a cold.

But some documentaries about animals are particularly popular.

And documentaries about food are even more popular.

There are also some foreign documentaries about gangs, vendettas, vicious cases, etc., which are also quite popular.

Therefore, documentaries will not completely lose money.

The same goes for your own documentaries.

Are netizens curious about the campus life of Xingchen students?

Will netizens be curious about what Xingchen students will experience after graduation and what kind of career path they will take?

What kind of industries are those Xingchen students who have graduated many years ago currently working in?

Are you as dazzling as when you first graduated, or have you faded away from everyone?
Will netizens be curious about how the Xingchen New District was planned and built?
There are many things about Star Academy.

Ye Chen thinks netizens will!

Therefore, even if you invest in documentaries, you may not lose money.

If you're lucky, the documentary might make a lot of money.

……

And besides these.

There are also some shows.

Directors can not only direct movies and TV series, but also reality shows, variety shows, etc.

However, not many students are interested at the moment.

So there are not many proposals.

However, one intern proposed a reality show, and two episodes have even been filmed.

This student was previously responsible for the live broadcast project of new materials in the construction major.

This student is responsible for the entire live broadcast process.

And while filming.

The student looked at the homeowners who were crying with joy as they looked at their new homes.

And the live broadcast audience exclaimed the incredible barrage.

I had a new idea in my mind.

Why not film a reality show about decoration?
A dilapidated house, transformed by the efforts of designers and workers.

Finally a new look.

There is definitely a market for this.

Especially in China, people are actually very concerned about houses.

But most people have no aesthetic design literacy and do not understand design.

Either do it yourself or be fooled by a cheating design company.

In the end, the houses are basically the same.

And filming a reality show that allows designers to design and decorate according to the requirements of homeowners will definitely make the audience look forward to it.

Moreover, there are a lot of excellent designers in our own college, and there are also construction companies directly.

There is no need to find designers from outside to participate in the program.
