Chapter 85 Arrangements
Film producer, a very high-profile profession.
Fully responsible for script coordination, preliminary preparation, formation of film crews (including contract signing of cast and crew members and filming equipment), film cost accounting, financial review; perform filming and production, post-production; assist investors in domestic, foreign issuance and domestic and foreign award application and other work.
Hollywood implements the producer-centered production system, producer of A-level film projects, and his status is definitely higher than that of most Hollywood directors.
Of course, the status reached the level of Cameron and Spielberg.
China is different.
The producers of domestic films are often relatives of investors or directors and confidants.
For example, Chen Kaige's movie, the producer's column will say Chen Hong.
"In terms of EP, we can try to release one or two songs first, and we will discuss the promotion when I come back from Milan."
Xu Hui still attaches great importance to his own songs.
"By the way, Mr. Xu, the photographer you followed has been found..."
Xu Hui nodded with a expressionless face.
It’s a bit embarrassing to say it out. In fact, most of the so-called fashion weeks in China, except for a few, because of the brand invitation, most of them go to get exposure.
Even those celebrities who were invited by the brand have their own exclusive follow-up team.
How can a photographer who has not followed the photo issue a press release to China? How can he prove that he has been to Milan if he does not post a press release?
All of this is Fan Xiaopang's impulse.
Although Xu Hui despises this behavior very much, he still has an idol career, so there is no way, so he can only do it.
It is because of the lack of status. For example, the Hollywood actresses attended a fashion week, and some were media reports. We could only issue press releases by ourselves.
So, the most posed photos I saw were the hotel corridors and boarding and getting on and off the planes…
"Also, Mr. Xu, should we sign a few more people? Xiaoshuang's current development momentum is quite good..."
“…Let’s talk about it.”
Xu Hui hesitated for a moment and did not answer Xu Liang's question.
For the time being, he thinks it is better not to be too outstanding in his studio and be low-key.
"Mr. Xu, we won the project of "Love Apartment" you mentioned last time, but..."
With the injection of two funds, Xu Hui Studio has been considered to have capital to participate in the investment and production of movies and TV series.
Unfortunately, the money is still too small, with less than 20 million working capital remaining, and half of it needs to be left for normal expenses, which means that the amount of funds that can be used shall not exceed 10 million.
This amount of money can be made for several art films, but nowadays, everyone knows that there is no other way to make art films except for exposing the social reality that it is possible to make money that can be made by selling miserable things abroad.
The theaters and the market does not recognize art films at all. They are not too rare to sell them to movie channels.
Xu Hui remembered several TV series that were popular in the future. In addition to online dramas, there are only scene dramas left.
After all, small investments and big income are just the ideal state, and the one that can really make money is still big productions.
When it comes to sitcoms, I have to mention it as "Love Apartment".
The three sitcoms "I Love My Home", "Wulin Waizai" and "Love Apartment" can be regarded as the three peaks of domestic sitcoms.
Although the entire article of "Love Apartment" is a reference and plagiarizes American dramas, it has become popular!
Just like Guo Xiaosi, although he copied books, he became popular. As long as he gained popularity, he could make money!
The first season of "Love Apartment" sold for less than 5 million yuan, and it was bought by Shanghai Tomato TV to support local film and television companies and was broadcast at 10 o'clock. Well, it was a PK with "Let's Watch Meteor Shower" at the same time.
The result was surprising.
Several episodes have seen a viewership of more than "Looking at Meteor Shower Together", and they are very popular among some young people today. Although the topicality across the country is still not as good as the mainland version of "Meteor Garden".
In the second season, Tomato TV began to promote it on a large scale, and the ratings and influence of "Love Apartment" have increased significantly. By the way, the second season seems to have sold 14 million!
These are all later stories.
Chen Farong is the person in charge of contacting this project. Judging from her tone, it seems that it is not very smooth.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Hui was a little puzzled.
"They insist on filming in Shanghai, and the selected characters are all students from Shanghai Opera, I..."
"It's okay, we only invest in the first two seasons of this kind of drama. If we make enough money, don't have any contact with it anymore."
After all, he has a reputation as a plagiarism, so Xu Hui doesn't want to have too much involvement with such works.
"The Soul Ferry was beaten back, saying that this kind of subject matter is very sensitive and is not suitable for project establishment..."
"Let's leave it first, and we will start this project when the online video industry starts to become formal."
After 2006, characters like ghosts are not allowed to be played on TV.
...
The business talk was almost done, and a few people started chatting casually.
These four people all established a relationship around Xu Hui, so the center of the topic must be Xu Hui.
"Xu Hui, how much do you think the show "The Voice of China" can make?"
"I can't calculate it, but I can definitely make a profit. You can rest assured of this!"
Xu Hui leaned on the sofa, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and answered while drinking.
"I'm not worried about our studio, we've invested a lot. Wang Changtian invested almost 50 million!"
Huang Wen lowered his voice and revealed mysteriously: "I heard that the Wang brothers were very angry when they learned that we were connected to Zhejiang Satellite TV."
"…What's so angry about him? Is it only Huayi who can cooperate with Zhejiang Province Satellite TV?"
Chen Farong continued.
"I guess they were angry that we found Light?"
"Hehe, guess right!"
Huang Wen smiled.
"Haha, if they knew we made this time, um, would you guess Huayi lick her face and ask us to kick the light..."
"Even if he makes such a request, we cannot agree. Light Media and Xinli Media, these two companies are our future allies..."
"Thanks…"
When Chen Farong heard Xu Hui mention Xinli Media, she thought it was for her sake.
Haha, I think too much!
But Xu Hui will definitely not point it out.
"I remember something, Huang Wen, do you know Happy Twist?"
"I know, a drama team...why, do you want to make their ideas?"
Huang Wen knew Xu Hui more, and as soon as he spoke, Huang Wen understood what he meant.
"Original scripts will definitely be scarce in the future. I think it would be a good idea to adapt a drama to a movie. If you find a way to bring our studio with the Happy Twist team, it really won't work. I will invest money to acquire their shares!"
"You're just watching dramas so well?"
Xu Liang was a little surprised.
"I'm not watching dramas well, I'm optimistic about the future of these people. If you believe me, do this together!"
Happy Twist movies, two of which exceeded 1.5 billion in box office, and one scored as high as 8.9 points. The production of Twist is definitely a fine product.
The audience recognized it.
Happy Twist has no idea of making a movie yet, and he just wants to do a good job in the drama. If he doesn’t get involved at this time, what are you waiting for?
Chapter completed!
