Chapter 84 Cost
The original actor, who is relatively difficult to hire, should be Ni Dahong.

Ni Dahong, in fact, is not particularly popular. His popularity is basically limited to those few people who really love movies and TV shows.

It is difficult for ordinary audiences to pay attention to him and discover the preciousness of this old drama.

Ni Dahong plays some characters really penetratingly, and Yan Song in "The Ming Dynasty 1566" is vivid.

A father who loves his children, a trembling chief assistant, a dilemma... Especially the portrayal of the old man in his 80s is really amazing.

In China, there is only one Ni Dahong.

Ni Dahong seems to have a lot of TV series, but if you look carefully at the TV series and movies he has acted in, one thing is self-evident: the TV series and movies he shot generally have high ratings.

Ni Dahong's problem is solved, and other people's problems are actually not too difficult.

Wang Luodan is almost still studying now, and she has no chance. Although "Struggle" has increased her popularity a lot, after all, it is mainly a matter of the future.

For the rest, Zhang Mo...

Zhang Guoli can be said to be a model of hoping for a son to become a dragon. He broke his heart for his son, but this son and Fang Zuming have similar looks and similar problems, so it is difficult to teach them to change.

Yang Kun...

Before "The Voice of China", although this person seemed to have the honor of 32 concerts, but that was mostly due to self-promotion. In the real situation, his popularity has not made any achievements after the song "It Doesn't Matter" .

He should be happy to invite him to be an actor.

In another time and space, there are many shadows of Ning Hao in "The Frontier", and many actors are also related to Ning Hao, but in this time and space, Chen Xi's fame, and his investment in this movie are enough for him to have some award.

"How? This one goes into the budget."

Chen Xi put the investment plan of "Frontier Wind and Cloud" in front of Ye Dongnan and Ou Yangzhi. The figure of 700 million was dazzling and blurred.

With the lessons of "Latent", when making a rough investment budget, Chen Xi learned the lesson and made all kinds of calculations more accurate.

Therefore, the figure of 700 million is finally determined, and it should not differ much from the actual situation.

"This investment is not high!" At this time, Ye Dongnan took the lead to speak: "Even if it is compared to "Latent", the investment is much worse."

Ou Yangzhi looked at Chen Xi at this moment, and said meaningfully: "This one, should it be the pure production cost? After all the calculations, the cost should be more than that."

Chen Xi looked at Ou Yangzhi, feeling a little bit like a hero, and rushed forward.

This is indeed only the production cost, the real investment, at least including the high publicity, the full value, at least more than 1000 million.

This is a relatively simple year. Compared with ten years later, the publicity fee for some films is even five or ten times the production fee... At this time, the publicity fee for most movies can only occupy a small part.

It's not that the high publicity fee means it's not a good film, but in the real situation, the indulgence of the publicity fee means that the wild horse will run wild, and it is very likely that it will never be tied again.

Therefore, the investment in "Frontier Wind and Cloud", publicity and distribution fees will occupy a large part.

Movies are different from TV shows.

For movies in this year, the box office that the producers can get is not high, and the movie market is low. Hundreds of millions of movies can already be called masterpieces, and small and medium-sized investment movies are struggling to survive.

For a movie, the box office generally needs to be two to three times the investment in order to pay back.

"No, it has to be compressed!"

Ou Yangzhi said calmly: "According to this investment, at least 700 million box office is needed to return the cost, but 700 million... Do you think this film may become the second "Crazy Stone"?"

"Crazy Stone" is a miracle in 06, Ning Hao's work, 300 million investment, 3000 million box office, high income.

After saying this, Ou Yangzhi took out Chen Xi's paper and saw the words on it, his eyes moved to look at the details.

All the minutiae, into the mind.

"These shootings may not really need to be like this!" Ou Yangzhi looked at Chen Xi: "To be honest, we need to be calm now, and we need to plan everything. Even if the film makes a profit, it may be eaten up by the company's new blankets, and then invest in the film funds Insufficient... some things need to be carefully calculated."

Chen Xi nodded.

He roughly understood what Ou Yangzhi meant and knew his proposition.

A few scenes going to Myanmar and Vietnam can indeed be cut and filmed in Nanyun.

"The details are too delicate, so it may not really bring good box office." At this time, Ye Dongnan also had a bit of earnestness and temptation: "This movie, from the script and some things, a few scenes are enough, at most two gunfights! If everyone is as solid-minded as you are, then other movies will not be made."

The continuous bombing by the two made Chen Xi calm down.

The details of Chen Xi's memory emerged, and he had a fusion of views on everything.

Judging from his details, the box office of "Frontier" was less than 4000 million at the time, but it also made a lot of money. According to the laws of domestic films, if you want to make money, the cost of "Frontier" should not exceed 900 at most. 900, [-] million, including all announcements, including the remuneration of well-known actors such as Sun Honglei and Wang Luodan.

At that time, the salaries of several actors were expected to increase a lot...

That being the case, why am I able to invent higher costs while saving film, reducing lens waste, and purely duplicating?

This is [-]. If the box office of "Frontier" is not as good as that of the original time and space, it is also possible, so how can he get back the money?

Each question caused Chen Xi to break out in cold sweat on his forehead, exclaiming how lucky he was.

To get a high box office is by no means as simple as seeing the news reports. Behind this, there is a lot of knowledge and a lot of attention.

At the same time, in Chen Xi's mind, the possibility of saving costs kept rushing out,

Although Chen Xi could not be called an expert in this aspect, he was at least one of the best.

If he were to actually shoot such a film, the pure production cost would be more than 200 million.

Salary expenses, labor costs for crew members, and equipment costs can be settled within 200 million yuan. Others, basic necessities of life, food, housing, and venue can basically be settled.

Some things, indeed, don't affect the quality too much, don't need to think too much... After all, he didn't go to the point of perfection.

He hasn't reached that level yet, and now making movies can't be for feelings, but for making money, which is used for expenses, and everything is kept simple.

In this way, many budgets have been reduced, and many things have been taken away...

In the end, the cost was suppressed between 800 million and [-] million. Even if the publicity is included, it should be between [-] and [-] million. This publicity fee is already very good.
