Rebirth of the Southern Drift Era

Chapter 314 Small Budget Movies

"It's a pity, it would be great if there were no pirated copies."

When Han Xue saw the total box office of "People on the Journey", she sighed with regret.More than 300 million, in this year's national box office list, it can definitely enter the top ten.

An investment of 100 million has turned into more than 1000 million. Although this is worse than other businesses they have, it is a long-term business.

In the future, they will have to invest in other films, and the company will even prepare to go public, and then they will be able to earn more.

If there is no piracy, maybe the box office of this movie can be higher, and they can earn more.

"Hehe, there's no way around this. Even in a few decades, these things cannot be avoided."

After hearing this, Liu Chang laughed and said, as long as there are benefits, someone will definitely do it.

However, in the future, VCDs and other things will be gradually eliminated, and the control of website piracy will become stricter, and the national box office will become better by then.

The population base of this country is there, as long as half of the people can enter the theater, it will be a very remarkable box office and can explode.

"Speaking of piracy, at Qidian.com, you should pay attention to anti-piracy at that time, and don't become the source of other people's piracy when it becomes bigger in the future."

For piracy, Liu Chang himself does not have a deep concept.But things that other people have worked so hard for are used casually without spending a penny, or at a low price. For those who create, this is too unfair.

Whether it's a movie or a novel, it's all the same.The fruits of other people's labor still need to be respected. You can choose not to watch it, but you can't choose to watch pirated copies.

Moreover, writing online novels is not a very easy and pleasant thing. Many online writers have various physical problems because they lie in front of the computer for a long time to type, but no one has ever paid attention to them.

Those online writers who are full of oil will not care about this, because they do not make money from electronic subscriptions, but for most writers, they still rely on manuscript fees.

They make all kinds of sub-healthy bodies, isn't it just for the sake of living and eating?Why can't you respect others?
That's why Liu Chang specially reminded Han Xue that he must do a good job of guarding against theft.It is not a good phenomenon to get the fruits of other people's labor without paying a penny for things made by others.

He can't control other websites, but his own website must be well controlled.In the future, no matter who dares to touch these aspects, Liu Chang feels that he must impress them deeply.

"Well, I will pay attention to these. However, with the success of this movie, our company suddenly received a lot of script ideas, and even many people went directly to the company to invest. The matter of Zhuo Yifan was exposed by those reporters After that, our company has become a company with a lot of stupid people and a lot of money, and everyone wants to come here to beg for meat."

After the movie became popular, Shonan Film and Television became famous in no time.Not only in China, but also some well-informed people from Xiangjiang have come here, with the purpose of attracting investment.

Regardless of whether their scripts can make money or not, they all rush to attract investment.Anyway, most people don't understand movies, so just listen to their nonsense.They are professionals and can definitely fool people.

"Hehe, this is normal. We are still the same as before. We invest in high-quality films with low costs. Big projects and those messy things are fine. There is not so much money to waste. At least in the next three years, none of these thoughts."

Liu Chang thought for a while and then replied, although Lao Mouzi will have a movie released in two years, which will make the box office of domestic movies better, but the situation of other movies is not very ideal.

For Shonan Film and Television, instead of tossing around in the film market, it would be more cost-effective to continue to acquire the film and television copyrights of some good stories.

As for those who think they are stupid and have a lot of money, Liu Changli is too lazy to answer.They toss as much as they want, if they can get money from Shonan Film and Television casually, then they will lose.

"Well, I think so too. Now our film and television company is working on a movie with a small budget of about 200 million yuan. I have read the script of this movie. It is very touching. I think the box office should be good."

The new movie that Xiangnan Film and Television has in hand is Han Xue's decision to make a movie. Liu Chang only knows about making a movie, but he doesn't know much about the others.

After all, it was only an investment of 200 million yuan, and Han Xue could make the decision by herself, and Liu Chang didn't need to make a decision.They can afford to lose this little money.

"Oh, what's the name of the movie?"

But after thinking about it, Liu Chang still asked the name of the movie.For domestic movies, if the box office is good, Liu Chang has a general impression.

Although 200 million yuan is not a lot of money for them, for Shonan Film and Television, it is better to continue to make some small-scale movies.

This is good for expanding the company's image and attracting more talents to come and join them.In the field of film and television, this is a big cake, and it will become more and more attractive as it goes forward.

If you have enough resources in your hands, you will attract enough talents.After several decades, if you randomly toss a similar movie out, there is no problem at all with a box office of over [-] million.

At that time, it was the time for them to make money for Shonan Film and Television.Otherwise, why would Liu Chang bother with these things, his goal is still to make money.

"The name of the script is "My Brothers and Sisters". I remember it was called that. But the actors can't force our people in, they can only do some supporting roles. The director has his own opinions on these."

In fact, this movie is already being filmed. Han Xue has watched it for a while, but she doesn't have much memory of the name.I remembered some of the content, so I roughly told Liu Chang about the plot.

"Well, this movie is not bad. But you remind the director, don't rush to shoot the movie, it's better to polish it well and perfect the plot. If the funds are not enough, we can add another 100 million."

After hearing Han Xue talk about the plot, Liu Chang thought of a movie.When the movie will be shown, he has no memory, and he has not seen the movie in the theater.

When Liu Chang in his previous life came out to work, for a long time, there were actually no theaters around him, only video halls.So even if he wanted to go to the movies, there was nowhere to go.

However, although he hadn't seen it in a theater, Liu Chang had seen the promotional video of this movie in various places in his previous life. He heard that it was very sensational, and the godfather of rock and roll joined in.

How is the box office of this movie? After so many years, who still remembers it?But if the influence is so big, it won't be too bad, and the box office of more than 200 million won't be too difficult.

"Okay, I'll go back and talk to Ruxue and ask her to pass this on to that director. It's just that it's hard to say whether the director will follow suit. Directors in your country have too many personalities."

Han Xue has never been used to this. It is completely different from Xiangjiang Wanwan. There are not many directors with more personalities in Xiangjiang and Wanwan, and most of them focus on box office.

However, it is too cheap to make movies in China at this time. Sometimes, even those directors can find connections everywhere to get together the cost of a movie. Naturally, they have the final say on how to make a movie.

Moreover, most of the directors at this time have the aloofness of a literary person. They may not be able to listen to the words of ordinary people, especially those outside the circle.

"Hehe, it will gradually get better in the future. If you tell him to increase the money first, he will naturally think about making the movie better. In fact, they want to make the movie better, but they are limited by funds. .”

Liu Chang explained with a smile. Although they don't know how Han Xue and the others got the movie, Liu Chang still knows some domestic situations better than her.

Those directors are all holding a little money, Zou Baba is making movies.If the funds are sufficient, most of them will still think about it carefully, after all, they also want to be a hit.

"By the way, I have another script here, and it feels pretty good. I plan to shoot it next year, and the investment is not big. Would you like to read it?"

According to Liu Chang's plan, the film and television company can only make one movie a year.Practice your skills, raise your reputation, and then expand channels and distribution, lay the foundation first.

Anyway, the company has money to support it, so there is no need to push yourself too hard.Making too many rubbish movies is completely unnecessary, tiring, and will make the reputation worse.

"What movie? Just tell the story, I don't like reading scripts very much."

Seeing what Han Xue said, Liu Chang asked back.He and Han Xue have different tastes. Han Xue is more literary and young, and she likes special things, so Liu Chang is really not interested in reading good scripts she thinks.

If it was a script that was funny or an action movie, maybe Liu Chang would be interested in watching it.

"It's a story between a woman and two men. The woman fell in love with a man with a poetic nature, and often went to see him by train..."

Han Xue has read not only the script, but also the original work.This script is a script adapted by the director and the original author, which is similar in style to the original.

"Oh, let's do it. Movies like this don't cost much anyway."

Liu Chang has heard this story, but he doesn't remember the name of the movie, so he doesn't know how the movie's box office is.

But think about this kind of movie at this time, except for the actors who need to spend some money, basically there is no other expenses, no special effects, no big scenes, no matter how much you shoot, you can't spend a lot of money, so let's shoot it.

In such a row, there are movies released next year and the year after next.At that time, I will find a few low-cost movies, and I will definitely have no problems after a few years.

Da Pao and the others have become the queen directors of a certain company, and movies are produced every year.Liu Chang wanted to get a share of the pie, but he had no chance.
