Halo of cheating in the entertainment industry

This year-end summary was made in December, but Su Li was filming at that time, and I just browsed some of the content.

Now, Su Li has the mood, time and need to take a good look at this report and see what happened to Liguang Entertainment in the past year.

Undoubtedly, in 2009, "Source Code" was the most profitable "Liguang Entertainment Company". Dream Space".

There are other trivial incomes, but they are nothing in front of "Source Code".

In 2009, Liguang Entertainment's income was divided into three categories: TV dramas, movies, and variety shows.

The first is the TV series.

In 2009, the most profitable TV series produced by Liguang Entertainment Company was "Love Apartment 2". The investment in this TV series was only less than 500 million, but it earned the company more than 3000 million in profits. TV drama.

The success of "Love Apartment 2" is basically the biggest success among all TV dramas. This TV drama has been widely praised just after its premiere. Currently, "Love Apartment 3" is already under intense preparation.

"Love Apartment" has a great influence, and this is also the source of "Love Apartment 2" being able to be filmed. This has formed a certain degree of economies of scale for Liguang Entertainment Company. The line of making money will increase the company's profits in the future.

The news that "Love Apartment 2" was not directed by Su Li also made some fans of "Love Apartment 2" feel regretful, but they did not give up their attention to "Love Apartment [-]". After all, this TV series is still Su Li himself. The screenwriter received rave reviews after the premiere.Some characters in the play still continue the hilarity of the first part, and some newly added people can also make everyone laugh out loud.

"Love Apartment" and "Love Apartment 2" together have earned the company more than 5000 million RMB, which is a very profitable series. Several actors in "Love Apartment" also became one of the first actors to sign with Liguang Entertainment Company, and they also played a certain leading role.

"Love Apartment" has brought a lot of money to the company. The 5000 million yuan is not worth mentioning compared to the hurricane-like "Source Code", but it is also a big income for the company.Most importantly, it is impossible for the company to rely solely on "Source Code" to survive, otherwise the development would be too out of balance, and the development of the entire company would be deformed, making follow-up work quite difficult.

In 2009, the most profitable TV series was "Love Apartment 2". The others also made some money, but compared with "Love Apartment", the money was not worth mentioning.

Other TV series, such as "Battle of Marriage", currently earned 700 million for the company, which is a small amount of money compared to "Love Apartment". Officially released, such as "Snow Leopard" by Wenwen, "Beauty's Scheming" by Ruby Lin and others.

Some other TV dramas with small investment also made some profits for Liguang Entertainment, but not much. Including the whole "Love Apartment", the total profit is 6000 million.

Occasionally some of the TV dramas I invested in lost some money, but the losses were all small money, and there were still more than 6000 million in TV dramas.

In terms of movies, Liguang Entertainment has invested in many movies this year, and several of them have made some money so far.

Among them, the most profitable movie that finally reached Liguang Entertainment Company was "People on the Journey". This small-cost comedy finally earned 2500 million yuan in profits for the company, and it was Liguang Entertainment's first profitable movie.  …

Other movies have also made some money one after another, such as "The King of Guns". From this movie, the company earned more than 500 million.

"October Besieged City" was released on December 2009, 12, and it has already finished its first round of screenings. From this movie, Liguang Entertainment is expected to earn more than 17 million yuan.After adding the trivial income from other films, the film department of Liguang Entertainment Company has a profit of about 300 million excluding "Source Code".

With TV dramas and movies other than "Source Code", Liguang Entertainment has earned more than 9600 million yuan, and its profit is close to 1 million yuan.

Variety shows are also an important source of income. Over the past year, Liguang Entertainment Company has been mainly responsible for the two programs "Olympic Run" and "If You Are the One". Now "Olympic Run" has been completely bought out by Shonan Satellite TV, plus After the income from "If You Are the One", Liguang Entertainment earned more than 3000 million from variety shows, so, excluding "Source Code", Liguang Entertainment earned a total of 22 billion in profits. (You may think that the data on variety shows is a bit exaggerated, but after checking a lot of information, I found that this figure may be too conservative. "If You Are the One" attracted 18 billion in advertising fees, which is a relatively reliable figure.)

Variety shows are the biggest way to attract money, but Su Li doesn't have any good ideas anymore, and now the company will also attract some talents who can come up with good plans.

The company's profit, of course, can't help but talk about "Source Code". This movie has swept the entire Asia. After adding the copyright of v in Asia, it has received a total of 75 billion in revenue, and this revenue may increase, because now v is in Japan. And Korea sells quite well.

From the North American market, "Source Code" received a total box office of 102 billion U.S. dollars after the second round of screenings. According to the sharing agreement with theaters and distributors, Zuli and the others can get nearly more than 4000 million U.S. dollars in profits. This is 2010 million RMB.Then, according to the agreement, the v of "Source Code" and the sales and development of some peripheral products were also handed over to the United States, and some money was gradually received in this regard. For the released peripheral products, in terms of v, after coming to the company, there are still 15 billion yuan left.

After "Source Code" became popular in North America, some American bosses proposed to release the film in Europe. The edge division has been pitifully low after layers of exploitation.

"Source Code" received a total of more than 3000 million euros at the box office in Germany. This country is the favorite of "Source Code", although after layers of deductions, there are still some considerable surpluses.

There are also certain responses in other countries, but "Source Code" was released relatively late in Europe, and some box office data needs to be further updated. It can bring about 18 billion in revenue, mainly because there are too many deductions in the middle. In fact, the box office and audio-visual products in Europe are quite good.By the time of "Inception", the deducted money will be less. This is due to the improvement of one's own strength, and some are due to the further expansion of distribution channels, and even directly connecting with Europe. The deducted money will be much, much less.

Now the company is already doing this, just not wanting to give money to others for nothing.

And now it has obtained more than 5000 million income from Europe. After adding all these incomes, the current income of "Source Code" will be a number that makes people from other companies drool: 125 billion

Just one piece of "Source Code" is enough to make Liguang Entertainment wait for death, and it can also see the role of a good movie. The speed at which the money comes is absolutely jaw-dropping...

Therefore, within one year, Liguang Entertainment earned a total of 153 billion yuan after counting movies, TV dramas, and variety shows

This is already a terrifying number. Although it is incomparable with those big companies that cost tens of billions of dollars, for a company like Liguang Entertainment Company, which was established not long ago, has no backstage, and its business is not very good, 153 billion yuan is already a fantastic number.

This also provides a strong impetus for the continued development of Liguang Entertainment Company. In the next period of time, they will have more capital to do something.Come and do a lot of big moves, for example, the current "Inception" is among them.

Of course, over the past year, there is naturally not only income, but also a lot of expenses.

In terms of expenditure, the first thing to bear the brunt is the investment in some movies, TV dramas, and variety shows. In this regard, the total investment in movies in 2009 was 42 billion yuan, the total investment in TV dramas was 18 billion yuan, and the total investment in variety shows was . More than 5000 million.

Among them, movies occupy a mainstream position. After all, Su Li has a system that can know the future and know which movies to invest in to make money. Therefore, investment movies, TV dramas, and variety shows generally do not lose money.

The second is the investment in hardware. Among them, the improvement of Liguang Entertainment's equipment, including the studio and shooting equipment, cost a total of more than 6000 million. The investment in this aspect has to be carried out, after all, it is a long-term thing. , You can benefit later if you do it now.In 2009, Liguang Entertainment invested a total of 11 billion in the Fenying Special Effects Studio, some of which were for the acquisition of shares, but most of it was to update the equipment of the Fenying Special Effects Studio and equip it to the world's top level.

Now Fenying Special Effects Studio has strong technical strength and hardware facilities, and some technical advantages can already lead the world. It is more than enough to make a movie like "Inception".

At present, the company still has hundreds of millions of mobile funds left, and there are still some things that can be done, but we have to wait for the specific things to be done.

------

"Inception" started post-production soon, and the official editing and production started directly at the end of January.

When editing, Zu Li spent many days with the people in the editing studio, staying in the studio almost every day, watching the film, not wanting any failures.

It hurts every cut, especially those wonderful action scenes. Every time I cut a section, I feel a heavy blow in my heart. Although Su Li is watching a movie, it is gradually taking shape, but watching When many scenes are being wiped out in Naidi, the regret in my heart is still unavoidable.

Su Li himself has also learned a lot of editing techniques, and now these techniques can also allow him to form some general judgments on the entire movie, and occasionally give his own opinions on some key issues of editing, so that editors can be more in line with the Edit it on your own request.

In the midst of such hardship, Su Li came out of some relaxed state after finishing filming. He spent every day with a group of editors. Something went wrong.

The days passed quickly, after nearly two weeks of hard work, "Inception" has been cut out, the cut version has a total of two hours and 10 minutes, which is about the same time as the original "Inception" As long, some shots can now be used for the final render as well.

The film was quickly sent to the Fenying Special Effects Studio, and a total of more than two hundred people were busy working on "Inception".

The tentatively cut version of "Inception" is first rendered with special effects for the trailer, which is going to be released in February.  …

The first version doesn't need too many shots. When the ultimate version trailer is released, those special effects that make people feel overwhelming at first glance will be really used.Now the first version of the trailer is mainly to put some wonderful shots of the main actors and some bloody action scenes on it, that's all, more things can only be shown in the ultimate version of the trailer.

The current first version of the trailer is mainly to maintain everyone's attention to "Inception" and the official release of the movie. When the final trailer is released, that is what really attracts everyone to watch in the cinema power.

However, this trailer also needs a lot of special effects shots and the help of a lot of special effects.

Yao Qi and Li Xian, master and apprentice, have officially served as the chief special effects designers of the entire "Inception". Most of the special effects in "Inception" are here. Given the crystal stone, Fen Ying is the backbone that supports the entire "Inception".

On this day, Su Li saw that the entire special effects studio was busy, and Li Xian, who was in front of Su Li, was also paying attention to everyone in the mainframe, and at the same time, he was also in charge of a kind of general processing work.

The software they use is dazzling, and the efficiency is amazing after a lot of work is divided among more than 100 people. Otherwise, if one person has to deal with so many special effects, and the depth of each layer is deep, it will directly drive people crazy.

But now, the whole team is a well-functioning precision instrument, each person presents what they are responsible for, and finally synthesizes the exquisite movements one by one.
