Chapter 328 Fantasy and special effects
"Qin Zi, you have done a good job in dealing with the bib, but until the court makes the final result, you should not express your opinion again, it is unnecessary."
With Yang Man's advice, Ye Qin had long thought that, as a traveler, he even knew that Master Xingtie had lost the lawsuit.
Oral agreements without evidence are totally worthless.
According to Huayi's commitment, once the box office exceeds the dividing line of 5 million, they are willing to pay Xinghui according to a floating ratio, and the higher side will go up.
Xinghui and Bigao are both companies under Master Xing.
"Conquering the Devil" has a total investment of 1.13 million, Huayi invested 7700 million, and Star Master's Xinghui and Bi Gao accounted for the remaining 3600 million.
According to the guaranteed ratio of 9000 million, Master Xing can get about 3600 million, but minus the production cost of 5000 million, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" only has a profit of about [-] million?
Not to mention the money spent on investment, several years of preparation, half a year of arduous filming, several years of company operating costs, six years, the entire Xinghui company is only 5000 million? !
The box office is 17 billion!
This is worse than kneeling and begging for food!
I don't know what was wrong, not only didn't agree, but also said that 5 million refers to the net box office revenue.
In the court case, the box office share of the producer and distributor is about 6.6 million. After deducting miscellaneous costs, let alone 5 million.
It cost 8800 million yuan to guarantee the release, and there are 3300 million publicity costs.
According to the "Journey to the West" account split announcement, when the net income is greater than 2000 million, Huayi enjoys 70% of the share, and the other four investors enjoy 30% of the share.
In short, 5 million pure box office is impossible to have 5 million.
The defeat of "Conquering the Devil" means that Master Xing and Xinghui didn't earn much money, and they worked for nothing for a few years, about 1 million a year.
Fuck, it's better to come back and become an actor. It is estimated that many companies are willing to offer more than 3000 million yuan!
It's just that he never expected that the box office of 17 billion is certain that the star is in decline, and "Conquering the Devil" is his peak box office?
"Save tens of millions? Lose your reputation?"
Ye Qin was extraordinarily surprised, he typically picked sesame seeds and lost watermelon.
Yang Mandao: "In recent years, it has been going away from movies. In the past few years since its listing, the investment in games and real estate has been huge. Although it is about movies, it has launched Project H."
After all, if you have earned enough, you can earn a few more sums.
Ye Qin lazily understood the corruption and decline of the big capital behind the Beijing circle, and said: "Master Xing, Sister Yang, you have some snacks."
"You don't want to invest in Master Xing's next movie, do you?"
"To be precise, it's Ye Guangji and Guangguang."
Ye Qin hung up the phone and stretched himself, "The Mermaid" with more than 30 billion yuan, and the follow-up "Journey to the West: Volunteering the Demon", why not earn money!
Not sure, find another script and ask Master Xing to play it.
But who's on top?
It can't be me, can it?
While thinking, his eyes wandered around the hotel room.
The beds were in a mess, the scene was messed up by violent fighting, and there were glass shards everywhere.
Just finished fighting with the female killer, it can be called the first real martial arts instructor.
In the last "Embroidered Spring Knife", he and Wu Jing's Baji Sanyin Dao faced the Eight-faced Han Sword, and he only participated in the action design.
This time it's about designing camera positions, action routines, fighting rhythms... You can hang a martial finger in the movie.
Looking out from the window, the Continental Hotel was filmed in a triangular block at the intersection of 23rd Street, Broadway and Fifth Avenue.
The pointed direction, straight to Madison Square.
In the eyes, it is full of prosperity, countless high-rise buildings stand tall, dense crowds on the streets swim like small black dots, and the sound of cars honking one after another.
The neon lights are flashing and colorful, but it feels like a shock, after all, it is not in its own land.
"Qin, what are you thinking, why don't you go back to rest after work is over?"
Ye Qin glanced at David Leitch who was approaching: "We Chinese people all have a hometown complex. I'm thinking about when to wrap up and when to go back?"
"Soon, there are only two scenes in the bar and the warehouse."
David Leitch said excitedly: "If we continue to maintain this speed, maybe we can catch up with the Fantastic Film Festival!"
Ye Qin knows Oscar, the three major European film festivals, Sundance, Tribeca... what kind of festival is this fantasy film festival?
Pheasant Festival?
David Leitch introduced: "International cities have set up fantasy film festivals around Fantastik..."
Ye Qin suddenly realized, and co-authored a film festival dedicated to screening cult films such as horror films, science fiction films, fantasy films, and action films.
For example, China does not have an award ceremony for this type of film, and it will take 15 years for action movies to wait until Uncle Long and the Shanghai International Film Festival jointly establish the "Uncle Long Action Film Week".
(￣︶￣), if there is an opportunity, hold a Huaxia Fantasy Awards Ceremony!
"We can try the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival in October, which is the most famous in the world."
David Leitch said in a rather excited tone: "If the filming can be completed in about 30 days, you can also catch the last train of the American Fantastic Film Festival. Qin, you don't know, every time this time comes, first- and second-tier film companies will choose. "
American Fantastic Film Festival?
Ye Qin suddenly recalled, "Conquering the Demons", it seems that he signed up for this fantasy film festival, maybe he can really meet Huang Bo, Shu Qi and the others!
"Is there enough time for post-editing?"
"There is no problem with this. During the filming process, a visual effects company has already been arranged to do it."
David Leitch said triumphantly: "The business of special effects companies in Hollywood is bleak now. Clients like us are their gods!"
This is true.
From 2003 to 2013, 21 well-known special effects studios in Hollywood went bankrupt.
For example, the PDI Pacific Digital Image Studio of the "Terminator" series and "Shrek", and the rhythmic special effects studio of "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings".
Quan declared bankruptcy this year. As the second largest special effects company in Hollywood, Digital Domain, which has produced "The Fifth Element", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Transformers", and "Iron Man" series, in 06, it was in debt of 3500 million US dollars .
Then Galloping Horse took away 3000% of the shares for US$70 million, and sold it for US$5000 million this year.
Ye Qin and his meow also came to Hollywood, and after talking with Li Meijing, who is also a shareholder of DreamWorks, he learned that the special effects industry in Hollywood is in depression.
Even DreamWorks and Blue Sky Studios are struggling, and Pixar and Industrial Light & Magic have laid off hundreds of employees, clinging to Disney's thigh.
Because of the industrialization and industrialization of CG technology, countries around the world are subsidizing the animation industry, which has spawned a large number of studios.
Especially Bangziguo and Huaxia, which are full of cheap labor, are rushing to snatch Hollywood's orders, and even viciously bid to accept orders at a loss!
In a few years, Huaxia's studios and company special effects will not lose to Hollywood at all, but the large-scale film and television special effects companies that created DreamWorks and Industrial Light and Magic, with a team of hundreds of people, it is difficult!
With the sky-high salary of domestic stars rising, how much money can be left for special effects?
It is not enough to focus on film and television alone, and must focus on both film and television and games.
Ye Guangji has Lilith, Mihayou, Sanqi Huyu and other future new mobile game forces on hand.
As we all know, those who can do game special effects are not necessarily good at film and television special effects, but those who can do film and television special effects must know game special effects!
Next year, Lilith's "Legend of Dota" will start to take off!
emm, I want to find an opportunity to talk to Blizzard, an old man, about mobile game IP licensing.
.....................
The third issue of "Happy Boys 2013" will be played as scheduled.
In the studio, Wu Danni was not on the stage at all, and stared straight at "The Voice" who was playing.
The first contestant to appear was a fat boy with a watermelon head, who turned out to be a nurse named Mao Buyi.
The song I chose to sing was actually my own original, called "Sorrow".
The melody is simple, the lyrics are simple, but it is inexplicably beautiful!
When he finished singing the verse and entered the interlude, he held the microphone and whistled.
For a moment, Naicha Lun, Na Ying, and Yu Qing turned around one after another.
Wu Danni's face immediately pulled down, pointing at the coordinator, planner and others in the studio, she cursed:
"What's going on with the selection management team! Such an excellent singer seedling, why didn't you find it, let Good Voice take it away!"
"And back to Zhou Shen, Li Qi, Jin Runji, Bai Jugang, Rao Wei, how did you get selected!"
"Mr. Wu, this matter can't be entirely dependent on them."
Ma Hao said helplessly: "Bai Jugang and the others were originally our contestants, but the good voice announced that Milk Tea Lun would join. They all withdrew from the competition and ran to the next stage."
Wu Danni's face was green and pale for a while, and her eyes were full of unwillingness and hatred. When she saw Yao Beina, who was the second runner-up of The Voice, who was the second runner-up in the popular youth song competition, she felt a chill in her heart.
In order to completely crush "Happy Boys", how many tricks did Ye Qin prepare!
Despair was written on her face, especially when she heard the news that "I Am a Singer" will replace "Happy Boys" and is inviting singers from the industry.
With a weak smile, it's time to think about the way forward.
The key is, is Ye Qin willing to give it?
Thanks to book friend Li Zhuyun for the 100 starting coins.
