Entertainment: Starting from child stars

One day in March during the filming, the person in charge of the video platform of Goose Factory came to the crew to find Guan Shaozeng and Luo Shao.

This was also Goose Factory that they had contacted before. They wanted to cooperate with Goose Factory for this TV series.

"Let's find a place to discuss."Guan Shaozeng signaled that he wanted to find a room for a confidential discussion.

Luo Shao and the person in charge of the Echang video platform left together.

They went to a nearby hotel box and the three of them sat down.

"Mr. Guan, is this the well-known child star Luo Shao?!"

"Hello, I am Li Zheng, the person in charge of the Goosechang video platform."

Li Zheng stretched out his hand, and Luo Shao shook hands with him.

"Luo Shao is the main person in charge of this cooperation"

"《The script of the TV series"Douluo" was written by him."Guan Shaozeng introduced Li Zheng

"What?"Li Zheng was very surprised to learn that Luo Shao wrote the script.

"Not only that, you know that director Xu Ke is currently filming the movie"Inception", right?!"

"You know, isn’t it a science fiction film that you invested 500 million yuan to produce?"

"Inviting co-stars such as Liu Dehua, Xie Tingfeng, Yang Mi and others."

While Li Zheng was talking, he also looked at Luo Shao. Could it be that…

"That's right, the screenwriter of"Aixinjueluo" is Luo Shao himself"

"OMG."After learning about this, Li Zheng was even more shocked.

Luo Shao said without saying anything:"This time I have an appointment with Mr. Li, of course I want to cooperate."

Douluo" is a TV series with only 35 episodes, but the plot ends at the Soul Fighting Competition.

It happens to be that Xiao Wu is exposed as a soul beast, and finally Tang San's father comes to the rescue.

After rescuing them, Xiao San and Xiao Wu After Wu separated, it would take several years for them to reunite.

The entire TV series had an average special effects budget of 5 million per episode.

In 2011, the special effects budget was 175 million. , level, it will definitely be more realistic, shocking and dazzling than the special effects produced with an investment of 4.5 billion in 10 years.

In addition to the special effects funds for the entire TV series, the actors' remuneration is actually not much. On the contrary, it is the cost of the crew. , as well as the consumption of manpower and material resources during filming; in total, the total investment of this drama is exactly 200 million.

Luo Shao’s idea is that this TV series will not be broadcast on TV stations, but will be broadcast on the Internet.

Why choose the Internet? Of course, if the drama is to be broadcast on a TV station, the review time will be reduced, because"Douluo" will face three problems.

The first is the age issue of the TV series, because the main characters in the drama are all in age. Around 14 to 16 years old; if it is broadcast on a star, I am afraid that the broadcaster will not agree, and they are afraid that this kind of TV series will affect minors.

Second: If it is submitted to the broadcaster for review, there are many things in it that may be deleted. Less; third: the review time process; only after review can the license be obtained from the broadcast D, and then the TV station will need to bid for the broadcast rights.

It was these three problems that made Luo Shao decide on this drama. Just broadcast online dramas. There are many advantages to choosing online dramas.

First of all, there is no need to delete the content. The broadcast of online dramas does not need to be reviewed by the advertising agency, but only by the video website.

That is, if the online drama is broadcast, it can be broadcast while filming.

In Zhongguo, many TV dramas are filmed and produced, and they need to be reviewed. Some of them can take half a year, such as fairy tales and fantasy. It will take longer, so it cannot be filmed and broadcasted at the same time.

But for web dramas, it can be filmed and broadcasted at the same time. However, one thing is that the post-production team must be able to keep up with the filming.

If it is broadcast, only about four episodes can be broadcast every week, otherwise, the production of the post-production team will not be able to keep up with the speed of broadcast.

"Your attempt is a good one, but the premise is that the special effects team you hired for your drama can keep up with the speed of broadcasting?"

"According to what you said, if four episodes are broadcast every week, you will have to do such good special effects later."

"Can the team guarantee it?"Li Zheng understood Luo Shao's plan.

"So far there is no problem."

The TV series is edited and post-produced while filming, so there will definitely be no problem with the special effects.

And there is no need to find dubbing, because when the TV series is filmed, the same sound is used, and there is no need to find dubbing in the post-production process, which is good.

"If so, do you plan to put this drama on our platform?"

"So, what are your plans for the copyright fee for exclusive broadcast on the network?"This is what Li Zheng values the most.

Luo Shao knows that he will definitely care about this. After all, he is a businessman.

"I can assure you that this fantasy drama is definitely the one with the best special effects in domestic dramas so far."

"Although the previous"Sword and Sword" series looked good, the special effects were also terrible."

"It is entirely supported by Hu Ge, Liu Yifei, Yang Mi and others and the plot, and the special effects are almost non-existent."

"Therefore, my"Douluo" focuses on visual effects, and I can guarantee that there will be no problem in this aspect."

This is also Luo Shao's confidence. He now wants to broadcast it this morning to see market feedback.

The main reason is that the popularity of"Sword and Sword 3" broadcast in 2009 has not dropped yet.

If"Douluo" is launched at this time, the visual The special effects are so gorgeous and shocking, it will definitely become a hit

"In this way, your investment is 5 million per episode, so how about we try it first?"

"For the 4 episodes in the first week, I will get your exclusive online platform broadcast rights at a price of 5 million per episode, so at least you will not lose money."

"Look at the playback volume of the first four episodes. If the playback volume is high, the reviews are high, and the popularity is not a problem,"

"Then how about we raise the price later?"

"After all, you are filming and broadcasting at the same time, so this is something you can talk about."

Li Zheng also gave his suggestion to see what Luo Shao thinks.

He thinks so. Luo Shao is so young, he dares to invest 200 million to produce such a drama.

Special effects for domestic fairy tale dramas cost only 50 cents. Li Zheng also wanted to tear off the label of not being able to go abroad, so he couldn't let Luo Shao lose money.

The production cost of one episode was 5 million. If the price was lower than this, it would appear that he was not sincere.

We don’t dare to take risks, and we cannot give too high a broadcast copyright.

If the work is not accepted when it is launched on the platform, it will cause the platform to lose money.

"make a deal."After Luo Shao thought about it, he agreed to Li Zheng's suggestion.

"Xianxia dramas are different from fantasy dramas. I am also trying to make fantasy dramas without making any money."This is also Luo Shao's ambition.

His age is actually suitable for starring in this kind of fantasy drama for teenagers.

Most male protagonists in fantasy dramas are fourteen or fifteen years old when they first appear, which is just right. If he plays the role at his age, and the web series can be filmed and broadcast at the same time, it can greatly save the post-production cycle.
