Entertainment: Stepmother’s daughter is actually a future queen

Chapter 240 Big Movie

Everyone in the dormitory was stunned, whether it was the roommates or Zhou Ye. They all looked at Lin Yu in shock and were speechless for a long time. Zhou Ye even shook his head secretly.

This kid is either a genius or a madman.

But for such a talented person, there are only two endings. Either he will lose his position in the face of failure and curb his edge.

Or, take an unprecedented path!
Lin Yu glanced at his team and couldn't help but shook his head secretly. Only Guo Hao took a sip of water and lowered his head silently.

Among these people, only Guo Hao could keep up with his own thinking.

Yes, in the future, timidity will be the biggest obstacle for a director and capital. Once an IP becomes popular, he will work hard to dig up that IP, even if the story collapses.

It’s hard to say whether it’s right from an income perspective.

"I'll shoot 4 and 5." Guo Hao said calmly, "I can also revise the script with you."

"You two lunatics..." The second child murmured to the side, scratching his hair.

Why does something so simple have to be so complicated?
Zhou Ye suddenly smiled and patted the second child on the shoulder, "Extraordinary things can only be done by extraordinary people. As a mere freshman, your boss is only a few years old." For [-] yuan, we hired a crew, found actors, set up a stall in front of Beijing Film Academy, and released it on our own at a low cost of less than [-] yuan."

"In the end, he gained 3000 million points. Regarding this matter, do you still need to question his madness?"

Zhou Ye looked at Lin Yu with burning eyes, "The difference between us and him is that even if he said it, we wouldn't even dare to do it."

"Boss, from today on, I obey you." Zhou Ye said seriously and stretched out one of his hands.

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, then shook hands with Zhou Ye vigorously, with a relaxed smile on his face.

"We are all brothers."

……

"Lin Yu..."

In the dormitory, Lin Yu watched Yu Baihe crying in the media, and finally closed his laptop with an expressionless expression. The roommate beside him couldn't help but worry.

After sending Guo Hao and Zhou Ye away that day, Lin Yu handed over the negatives of Ghost Shadow 3 to Huace for further distribution.

The next step is very simple, which is to continue photographing the cemetery encounter.

This movie is definitely an enlarged version of the true story of ghosts. By then, just setting the scene in an abandoned hospital will be exhausting. This is definitely a huge challenge for Lin Yu, who is directed by a newcomer.

"Do you believe she is sincere?" Lin Yu suddenly asked calmly.

The second child was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but hesitated, "I am a mother after all, so I can't..."

"As for that." Lin Yu smiled faintly, interrupting what the second brother was about to say, but his tone became very calm, "I have met her many times, and she has never shown absolute malice towards me, or even rudeness. , but so what?”

"You just need to remember that a truly ordinary woman still has a trace of conscience."

"How could you allow your own son to remain so indifferent for more than ten years and not even visit him?"

"Therefore, how can we reason about the cold evil in her heart?"

"To deal with such people, we must be ruthless and thorough, and we must eradicate the roots without leaving any future troubles." Lin Yu said calmly, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing, "She may have thought that I have not truly See her face."

"I'm not resentful, I'm just disgusted."

"It's not that I hate what she did to me, I just hate her hypocrisy."

"One day, I will completely reveal this man's ugly face in front of the world."

Lin Yu sneered.

Lin Yu finally relaxed.

In the days that followed, Lin Yu could rest assured and write about the novel, while studying the editing of the movie "Encounter in the Cemetery".

Huang Quan Biluo, who has been promoted to deputy editor-in-chief, told Lin Yu that Shanda will sell Mortal Cultivation of Immortality to [-] yuan before the end of the year.

By the end of next year, the minimum will not be less than 30.

(Don’t use the contemporary world to measure the world of novels. Payment rates are different. For example, in the era of mobile phone payment and reading, there are millions of average subscriptions. Even in contemporary times, as long as Palm X makes public data, the so-called ‘average subscription’ is Not less than hundreds of thousands)

(This area must be booked in the millions)

With this level of electronic payment, the royalties for Mortal Cultivation of Immortality have also reached a terrifying level.

Lin Yu's other works all follow one person's attainment of enlightenment, with chickens and dogs ascending to heaven.

There is no way, Mortal is too popular, not only driving the previous works, but also from the perspective of promotion, the quality of Lin Yu's other works is also unparalleled.

On the other side, in Xiangjiang, the crew of "The Outlaw" began to officially announce the makeup photos of the male lead Lu Zuming in a high-profile manner.

And Lu Jinshan's family has become extremely low-key now. Apart from this dynamic, there are no more fluctuations.

On the other side, Lin Yu's personal job in Xiangjiang was forcibly taken back by the company.

How to answer this question? Litigation is also a mess. Is a personal social account a derivative of the artist's personal space, or an extension of the company's subsidiary value?

This basically depends on how the contract is regulated.

Lin Yu was too lazy to continue arguing with Tianmu. Anyway, the account would be back in his hands in two years.

While Lin Yu was reading the script of Encounter in the Cemetery, he used his account on Langwang to pick up his hobby of writing short stories again.

A month later, Ghost 3 was released, and the script of "Encounter in the Cemetery" was successfully written. Lin Yu took a taxi and went straight to Huace's company.

"This is the director of Ghost Shadow? So young? I have admired him for a long time!"

In Liu Hui's office, a tall man wearing a suit stood beside Liu Hui. It was obvious that Liu Hui's expression was not very happy. When this man shook hands with Lin Yu, his expression was very enthusiastic.

"Your Ghost Story is low-cost and a big hit. Although the return is only [-] million, it is a miracle to be able to achieve such results on an online university."

"Your mockumentary shooting method is also of great reference to us."

"We have organized directors from all over the company to learn from it." "Oh, by the way, my name is Zhao Xin, the deputy director of the film and television department of this company." Zhao Xin said enthusiastically.

Liu Hui looked at Zhao Xin on one side, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes, and she took a deep breath. Dressed in a professional OL uniform and black stockings, she was extremely capable.

"Ayu, your Ghost Shadow series is really amazing. This time, the selection of the King of Nets has fallen on your Ghost Shadow 2."

"The results of the test screening of Ghost 3 are also very good. According to the current trend, it may eventually reach a share of 2000 million."

This is already a decline, but there is no way. There is always a risk of people getting tired of eating the same kind of food. This is an objective law and there is nothing to say.

But given the ultra-low cost of the Ghost Series, it’s okay to make money anyway.

This is a small conference room of less than [-] square meters, which can only accommodate less than ten people. Liu Huicai vacated this room when he heard that Lin Yu made a special trip to visit today.

Who knew that when Zhao Xin heard that Lin Yu was coming, he insisted on following him.

Liu Hui stood up at this moment, first went to the side of the glass, reached out and closed the curtain, blocking people outside from peeking into the room.

"A Yu, I heard that you are here to prepare for the filming of a big movie?" Liu Hui came back and glanced at Lin Yu who was sitting there.

It is really enviable to achieve such achievements at such a young age. He is truly considered one of the talented directors.

Zhao Xin pushed up her glasses.

"Are you planning to make a big movie? Okay." Zhao Xin nodded slowly, "Although Internet University has become popular in recent years, it is still a small project after all... Oh, don't get me wrong."

"What I mean is that due to the way it divides accounts, the ceiling is not high enough, so it is not attractive for some high-cost content."

"However, the quality of your Ghost Series is excellent, even if it is used in major movies, it is still qualified."

With that said, Zhao Xin pushed up her glasses again and said with a gentle expression, "Classmate Lin Yu, I wonder what you think about your big movie? Is it also the theme of the Ghost Series?"

"Similar, but not a ghost series at all."

Lin Yu said frankly, "It's called "Cemetery Encounter," and it's also a pseudo-documentary shooting method, but it's very large, with bigger scenes and more people."

Liu Hui did not comment. Zhao Xin slightly frowned and nodded slowly. He did not comment on the name of the movie. He just said slowly, "It has been successful on the Internet. It is indeed worth trying out this filming in a big movie." The effect of the method.”

"Young people always have to be brave and take this step, but there are some differences... you may not be particularly clear about it."

Zhao Xin twirled her fingers, "After all, the difference between a big movie and a big Internet movie is still too big. In our big movie industry, the ceiling level of movies can reach [-] billion. This is a super market worth tens of billions per year. "

"It's not like Internet giants. Before you get up, 1000 million or 2000 million will be the end. Maybe none of the giants fighting in big movies are ordinary people."

Zhao Xin paused and said, "We can usually say that, of course, the production cost cannot affect the quality of the film."

"But based on our analysis of tens of thousands of movies, production costs can still affect the box office."

"Generally speaking, the higher the production cost of a movie, the higher its box office ceiling will be."

"And compared with the Internet, it also involves promotion, prime time, theaters, and film scheduling. This series of problems, any angle is enough to kill a movie that is not of high quality."

"A movie may cost only a million to produce, but the publicity cost may be ten times the production cost."

"Once you hit the street, it's completely unbearable for the individual."

"So, you can still play with your small budget in big movies, but it's very difficult in big movies. Do you understand?" Zhao Xin said sincerely.

"I know a little bit about it." Lin Yu nodded.

"Yes." Zhao Xin nodded slowly, picked up the tea cup next to her, and took a slow sip. She was not in a hurry to ask Lin Yu for the script, but continued to chat about some common sense, "From my personal point of view. It must be right to achieve your achievements and try to move into the big movie industry."

"But at the beginning, you can start with a small cost... What is your planned shooting cost? Have you done a cost accounting?" Zhao Xin asked.

"200."

"Okay." Zhao Xin nodded with satisfaction, "Let's do it little by little. From the beginning, we should treat it as accumulated experience. We can set the goal a little lower and protect our capital."

"If we don't lose money, we can take bigger steps in the next step."

"It's not yet known what will be a bigger hit in the future." Zhao Xin forced a smile on her face, "For example, the hit movie our company produced in the first half of the year sold a box office of 20 billion, minus the theater share. Production costs, publicity costs, etc., plus a 2% net profit.”

"4 million, the net profit of a movie, is really good." Zhao Xin smiled, "I believe you can do it in the future if you work hard."

Lin Yu smiled.

"Do you know some common sense in this industry? It's about cooperation methods and how to divide accounts." Zhao Xin took another sip of tea and asked politely.

"I was just about to ask for advice." Lin Yu inherited the memory of a film producer, how could he know nothing about it?
Zhao Xin nodded slowly. It was obvious that he still valued Lin Yu very much. Otherwise, as a vice president of a film production team, there would be no reason for him to come and chat patiently with Lin Yu in person. When Lin Yu asked this, Zhao He did not hide his selfishness and said, "There are many modes of movie shooting. Normally, after a movie is produced, 55% will be taken from the theater account. After deducting the production cost and miscellaneous expenses, the basic profit will be 2 ~3%.”

"If our company sets up the project by itself, all the funds will be provided by the company, and Huace will be responsible for the profit and loss, then the director's income will be between 50 and 300 million. Some old directors will receive some box office dividends, usually within 1 About a point.”

Saying that, Zhao Xin glanced at Lin Yu up and down, "You are a newcomer, but you have made great achievements in big movies. 50 is the price we give to newcomers."

"Here you go, I can give you 100 million, plus about 3% of the box office dividend. That's it."

"If your box office reaches 400 billion, it means your income can reach [-] million."

"Of course, if your movie is a small hit, or if several movies are small hits in a row, the share of your subsequent movies will become higher, eventually reaching about 1%."

"Ayu, you have made a lot of money as a ghost. This time you brought the script yourself. I guess you don't like this, right?"

"We have another option, which is half-financing." Zhao Xin said calmly, "We will bear 50% of the production cost of the entire movie, and half of the publicity and distribution costs. We can discuss it. In this way, you can do it yourself. Raise the remaining half.”

"After the filming is completed, we have two ways to split the accounts."

"The first is buyout. After we review your movie, if you want it, we will buy it out directly at 1.5 to 3 times your production cost."

"Two, we will give you a guaranteed fee of 1 to 300 million. This is not necessarily true. It depends on the production cost of your movie. Then, we will directly participate in the subsequent box office dividends and give you 8% of the total box office."

"I think you misunderstood." Lin Yu suddenly spoke and interrupted lightly, "I will bear all the production costs and publicity of this movie alone."
