Chapter 107 Win-win 【Seeking Monthly Ticket】
After hearing "Ordinary Day", the longing program team immediately spent a huge amount of money to buy out the song. While using it as the theme song of the program, they also gained popularity. Of course, this is also mutual. Xu Wenruo's album also attracted traffic. This is a win-win situation. Xu Wenruo won twice.
On the day when Xu Wenruo's album was released, Li Dandan tagged Xu Wenruo on Xingxun and said that she was convinced that the world was really worth it.
At this time, Xu Wenruo had another important task, which was to find a suitable shooting venue. There were many film and television bases near the capital, but it was not easy to find the right one.
The narrative of "The Tomb Robbers' Chronicles" is very grand. The general scenes cannot meet Xu Wenruo's needs. And this is only the first one. The plot of the Seven Star Lu Palace should be able to produce about ten episodes, but if all of them are finished, at least hundreds of episodes will be required.
Therefore, after Xu Wenruo visited the film and television bases near the capital, he suddenly had an idea in his mind that he would have to film several dramas. So why not build a film and television base by himself?
Of course, in the capital, where every inch of land is valuable, Xu Wenruo does not have that much money yet, but in some small second- and third-tier cities, Xu Wenruo has not had much problem building a small film and television base to meet the crew's shooting.
Finally, after some exploration and negotiation, Langya City, Shandong Province, gave very preferential policies. The official used the land as funds to jointly build a film and television base with Fengqi Studio, and the official property rights accounted for half.
After all, second- and third-tier cities do not have so many resources, and land is not valuable. Film and television bases can not only increase income, but also serve as amusement parks and tourist attractions. They make sure to make profits without losing money. They can also be said to have developed cultural industries. They kill two birds with one stone, so why not do it?
Xu Wenruo was also happy to give up half of the property rights. After all, his funds are not very rich now. He had to make movies and build a film and television base. If the whole thing was carried out, Xu Wenruo's money at hand was not enough.
With all the plans, Fengqi Studio can mobilize only more than 20 million yuan, which is only one-eighth of the fun. Being able to shoot an online drama of more than 20 episodes will already burn the fragrance.
Fortunately, this is a drama directed and acted by Xu Wenruo, otherwise it would be obvious that he would not be able to hire an idol of Xu Wenruo at the same level with this budget.
Xu Wenruo doesn't have to get a pay for himself. The other two starring actors Wu Xuan and Wang Kai don't spend much, they are both brothers. Xu Wenruo promised them the pay for him. The two of them said they were investing the pay for the crew as if they had agreed, and they were planning to make a big profit with Xu Wenruo.
Xu Wenruo knew very well what the two of them meant. Xu Wenruo was also very moved by this. Wu Xuan even hinted that Xu Wenruo if he was really short of money, he could help Xu Wenruo get investment.
Wu Xuan and Wang Kai knew very well that in order to film this drama, Xu Wenruo basically reduced all his wealth. They were worried that they would not have acting skills and would delay Xu Wenruo's online dramas, so how could they get more Xu Wenruo's pay?
Of course, Xu Wenruo would not treat Wu Xuan and Wang Kai badly, but he is indeed not rich now, but this is just the first part of "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles", and good days are still to come.
In fact, Xu Wenruo does not want external investment. Even if it is an investment brought by Wu Xuan through relationships, it is real money and will definitely send someone to supervise the crew. This may hinder Xu Wenruo and be detrimental to the next shooting.
If Xu Wenruo was a well-known director, he would definitely not be afraid of someone making trouble with him in the crew. After all, Xu Wenruo is just a newcomer and does not have that great prestige. His only advantage is that he has the power of life and death in the crew. After taking Xu Wenruo's money, he can only listen to Xu Wenruo's words.
Xu Wenruo can only control the crew through this form, and there is no way to do so, but as long as Xu Wenruo successfully produces a drama that has received a warm response, then Xu Wenruo will not need to use such small means.
After all, Xu Wenruo was still too difficult. After actually starting filming, Xu Wenruo felt that there were too many things happening to the director.
Xu Wenruo took the time to come to Langya and saw the location of the film and television base. It caught his eye. No wonder the official was so generous that he gave Xu Wenruo a large piece of land and gave such preferential policies to invest in the film and television base at the price of land.
He sighed softly in his heart, but Xu Wenruo knew that this was the best choice. The conditions given by Langya official were already the best, and Xu Wenruo had no choice.
The film and television base is located in the suburbs of the suburbs. The only better is the traffic conditions. A villa area was developed near the film and television base, and the supporting facilities were already very complete. Unfortunately, the villa was unfinished after buying a phase of the villa.
Langya City is not an economically developed region. Even if it is backed by green mountains and clear waters, there are not so many rich people who choose to buy a house here, which makes the villa area plan unlimitedly shelved.
This time, Langya official also used the name of the film and television base to make the villa area more valuable again. After all, so much investment was made in the early stage, it would be a pity if it really failed.
Xu Wenruo thought he had taken advantage of a lot, but he won a lot of land in vain. However, he didn't expect that the official Langya official was still a scheming man. Xu Wenruo bought a horse bone from a daughter, and was still a chicken that placed an order.
In any case, there is not much time left for Xu Wenruo now. The film and television base will be started soon. At least the tomb of the Seven Star Lu Palace will be built in two months.
The speed of two months is actually not fast. As long as the funds are in place, the speed of construction of rabbits will definitely be shocking. After a field investigation, Xu Wenruo asked the construction team to start working immediately.
Before coming to Langya, Xu Wenruo had already made a complete layout of the Seven Star Lu Palace. If it was just to complete the construction of the first online drama scene, it would not be a very difficult thing. Two months was completely enough.
After all, there are many scenes that can be built with green screens. In fact, the construction of a film and television base is not a big deal, and the equipment used for shooting is really a money-burning one.
Xu Wenruo has spent millions of dollars on film and television equipment alone, and many of them are still rented. Xu Wenruo can't afford it now.
There are so many things. Before the filming of the whole drama started, Xu Wenruo has invested more than 10 million yuan. As expected, this industry is just to burn money. Xu Wenruo has already saved a lot, but the money is still not enough.
Fortunately, the crew started filming two months later, which could relieve Xu Wenruo's capital chain. Two months later, Xu Wenruo's album revenue could also be as high as possible.
Currently, the sales of Xu Wenruo's first album "The Wind Rises" have shocked the attention. The price of 12 yuan has now sold more than 4 million copies, with sales of nearly 50 million. It makes singers very jealous. Is the market for digital albums so big?
It is said that many music companies have prepared digital album projects, preparing to take advantage of Xu Wenruo's east wind to see if digital albums are so easy to make money. Xu Wenruo deaf ears. His legend is everywhere in the music industry, but Xu Wenruo has not had much contact with the music industry.
He was just focused on his own business. Even though Xu Wenruo's album caused such a big sensation, he did not have any interaction with other singers. Many singers asked Xu Wenruo to invite songs, but he didn't even report the offer and refused directly. Xu Wenruo didn't have the time and ability to write songs for them now.
Xu Wenruo was very satisfied with the album's income. Since he signed a contract with Xingxun Company at 30% and 7% of the 7% share, he paid for it every month. The income from pre-sale last month had already been transferred to the studio's account.
With the copyright fees for several songs, the income he earned last month was tens of millions, which made Xu Wenruo's capital much more. This is also the main reason why he dared to invest heavily, because Xu Wenruo knew that the album would still have a larger income next month.
Xu Wenruo's album will definitely support him in the filming of this drama, and there will be even more remaining. After all, the preparations are already done now, so there is no need to invest too much in the follow-up, mainly daily expenses, and the biggest investment is special effects investment.
Xu Wenruo has nothing to say about special effects. Just spending money, the special effects are not enough. Xu Wenruo has no idea how much it invests at that time, so he can only look at the effect of the production.
With the construction of the film and television base, Xu Wenruo became idle. After specially hiring professionals to supervise the construction progress, Xu Wenruo returned to the capital.
Since leaving the training camp, this period has been Xu Wenruo's most leisurely day. All the crew's affairs have been handed over to Wang Gui. After the crew has built a rough framework, the rest is repair work. Wang Gui is definitely more skilled than Xu Wenruo.
So Xu Wenruo handed it over to Wang Gui with confidence, and he took advantage of this time to spread the novel "The Tomb Robbers' Chronicles" online.
The platform Xu Wenruo chose is the famous endpoint Chinese website in the online literature industry. The pen name is me, not Xu Wenruo. He uploads a chapter every day, and Xu Wenruo doesn't care whether he reads it or not. Anyway, he has not conducted any publicity and does not even make any notice on Xingxun.
Wang Xiaole is an ordinary high school student, but unfortunately he does not live in Japan. He studied at Langya No. 1 High School. Although the college entrance examination will be taken next year, Wang Xiaole still cannot change his habit of reading novels.
But he planned the time for himself, and could not exceed one hour a day, watch for half an hour during lunch break and half an hour before going to bed at night.
When Wang Xiaole skillfully opened the APP of the Final Chinese website and refreshed it, he found that the book he had been following was completely updated today. The author is famous for taking materials, but he wrote a horror novel, taking a hammer material.
That's right, Wang Xiaole likes to read horror and supernatural novels at noon and watch other types of them at night, otherwise he may not be able to sleep at night.
The book he liked was not updated, Wang Xiaole curled his lips, feeling more or less helpless, because he had been out of books for a long time and finally found a novel with a good taste, but it was not updated today.
So Wang Xiaole could only browse the new book list bored, hoping to find a good book, but he understood that the probability was too low, and there were not many good books on the new book list.
Wang Xiaole stroked his finger and suddenly saw a strange book called "Grave Robbers' Chronicles". The author called me not Xu Wenruo. Wang Xiaole smiled slightly. This must be an author who was flirting with Xu Wenruo's popularity.
Wang Xiaole is also a fan of Xu Wenruo. He knows every song of Xu Wenruo. "Grave Robbers' Chronicles - Ten Years in the World" is also his favorite song to hear, just treat it as giving Xu Wenruo face. Wang Xiaole clicked the cover of this book.
In fact, Xu Wenruo's fans have many speculations about "Grave Robbers - Ten Years in the World", because the creation experience of each song of Xu Wenruo is traceable.
For example, the earliest "Missing My Lover" was written by Xu Wenruo based on his own experience. "Prevention" responds to the provocations of other contestants, "Is Not Worthy in the World" is specifically to tease Li Dandan, and "Ordinary Day" is specifically written for the life I yearn for.
But this song "The Tomb Raiders' Chronicles - Ten Years of the World" is very abrupt and seems a bit out of place. There are many speculations about Xu Wenruo's fans. Many people think that Xu Wenruo just named the wrong song, and some people think that this song is like "Chiling" and has an unknown story recorded by Xu Wenruo in the form of a song.
But Wang Xiaole didn't think so. He felt that Xu Wenruo did this, and that there must be another profound meaning. There must be an amazing conspiracy hidden behind this. There is only one truth in the end. Let high school student Wang Xiaole uncover the final answer...
When Wang Xiaole entered the interface of this book, he was stunned because the first line of the introduction clearly wrote a line of big words: The first online drama "The Tomb Robbers' Chronicles", the Seven-Star Lu Palace is being filmed, so stay tuned.
After reading it, Wang Xiaole blinked and then looked carefully at the number of words in the novel. At present, there are only 30,000 words, and there is no contract signed. However, this author dares to say that his novel has been adapted into an online drama.
There are not many novels that can be filmed and television in a year, and each one can be filmed and television in a big shot, but this author can't see the appearance of a big shot. Not only does he have no recommendations, but he doesn't even have many collections and votes, which looks like a flop.
Could it be that this author bragged and was ridiculous, just to attract some gimmicks so that his book could attract more audiences? Thinking of this, Wang Xiaole seemed to have discovered the beauty. Since the author chose to take advantage of Xu Wenruo's popularity, he would definitely be able to do such a thing.
He actually has the face to name me not Xu Wenruo. Bah, I'm really shameless. As a fan of Xu Wenruo, he is actually very disgusted with this behavior. It's okay to take advantage of Xu Wenruo's popularity, but bragging without a bottom line is too disgusting.
Wang Xiaole is obliged to safeguard the honor of his idol. He feels that he should click in and criticize the author to realize his mistakes. He is not so bragging. Isn’t this corrupting Xu Wenruo’s image? Let me, a high school student, expose the true face of the ugly author!
