Chapter 215 Network Drama (Long Time Lost)
(Leave a message saying what you want to see! I'll adjust it... Also, you try to comment as much as possible. Without direction, it's so difficult for me!)
"Beijing Meets Seattle" was originally scheduled to be released on Valentine's Day on February 14...
The momentum of "The Demon Subduing" has risen and cannot stop it. The romance film that has invested in "Northwest" can be simply withdrawn...
And there was already Boge's "101st Marriage Proposal" during the same period...
In the first half of this year, Orange is preparing to appear in three movies, "Beijing Meets Seattle", "Embroidered Spring Sword" and "To Youth"...
Boss Lu is most concerned about "The Embroidered Spring Sword". This thing is not only related to the beginning of the Jinyiwei + Ming Dynasty, but also starring Lu Xiaoran himself.
As for "Northwest" and "To Youth", these two movies are unlikely to have a bad box office...
"Northwest" has been replaced by director Su Lun this time, and the influence will only be better;
Without Zhao Yanzi in "To Youth", it shouldn't be much worse than "Your Deskmate"...
Guo Fan's "You Are the One" can earn nearly 500 million yuan in box office, but it's unreasonable to change to "To Youth" and can't play it anymore...
The summer season is of course "Treasure Hunt Alliance", and this is Lu Xiaoran's first time in the summer season!
In addition, there are "Return", "Soon of the Year", "The Moon", "The Dark Side", "Hunting", "Charlotte Troubles"...
I always feel that this year's total box office may not be as good as last year.
Last year, fifteen movies (plus non-money art films) were released, with a total cumulative box office of over 6 billion...
This year, Yang Qing closed down...
Xu Zheng’s “Hypnosis Master”, Ning Hao’s “Moon”, including “Return” and “Hunting”, these four movies are not for sale!
The top sellers can only count on "Treasure Hunters" and "Charlotte Troubles"...
These two movies have killed 2.5 billion...
Therefore, Orange's goal this year is to exceed 10 billion yuan in total global box office...
The three movies, "Human Purge Plan", "Fifty Shades of Gray" and "Luxing", were all popular movies around the world at this year's meeting, especially "Fifty Shades of Gray". Original time and space, "Fifty Shades of Gray" spread from North America and swept the world, achieving a total of US$571 million in global box office, and North America contributed US$166 million...
Even if you get a discount, you will have a global box office of $300 million!
Anyway, Lu Xiaoran is optimistic!
...
Wang Wei is Guo Shubo’s gay friend.
They are the first screenwriters recruited by Orange...
After joining Orange, he first became a screenwriter, then followed Lu Xiaoran to make a movie, and went to "Star You", so he simply asked them to direct one of the groups, and later even handed them over to them later!
Guo Shubo wrote "The Age of Derailment" and gave it to Lu Xiaoran, who directly pointed out the shortcomings: two men, one is passionate and considerate, the other is a rich and handsome man, and the other is a poor, cowardly ex-husband who is playing extramarital affairs. Is this still necessary to choose? The story needs to be established, at least the two sides must be evenly matched, and the heroine is in a dilemma to be convincing.
Then he changed his ex-husband's personality to be less cowardly, nor an extramarital affair, just a seven-year itch...
Both of them respect Lu Xiaoran very much.
It is the kind of respect from the heart.
That day, Lu Xiaoran invited them to dinner.
He said directly: "Old Guo, you and Wang Wei can consider doing online dramas!"
“…Internet drama?”
"The TV drama industry is too deep. In the future, high-quality and good TV dramas are either institutionally oriented or have a deep connection with the system... You two will definitely not shoot serious dramas, so just go towards the video website!"
Guo Shubo: "I don't understand very much. Is there any difference between online dramas and TV dramas?"
"…You both watched Netflix's House of Cards, right?"
"Yeah, I saw it!"
After "House of Cards" was launched, Netflix's market value soared by 30%, shocking the entire capital circle. The online video platform became an uncultivated treasure land!
"In fact, it's the difference between broadcasting platforms. "House of Cards" is an American drama. I think the difference between online dramas and TV dramas is also the difference between platforms. One is aimed at the public and the other is aimed at netizens... The latter can play a little bit of a big scale!"
"Psychological Crime, Dark Man, Ten Deadly Sins, Death Notice... There was originally a "Forensic Qin Ming", which was taken away by Tang Ren. You can choose a few to shoot first!"
Wang Wei looked at the covers of several books and said, "I have read them all."
Guo Shubo also nodded: "I have seen it too. These seem to be suspense and reasoning subjects?"
"The audience of TV series is mainly middle-aged and elderly, but for online dramas, young audiences are the main audience group, and suspense and reasoning themes satisfy the curiosity of young audiences, so we choose to use this type of theme to open a breakthrough!"
"us?"
"Tengxun Video signed a contract with us, jointly invested 260 million yuan to create several high-quality online dramas, and you two are directors respectively!"
“…just the two of us?”
"Of course not. You two are the directors of the first story, and then leave it to the people you think of!"
Lu Xiaoran knocked on the table: "We want to do the American drama model, and multiple directors jointly complete the work, and the production specifications and styles of the work are highly unified, so as to maximize productivity."
Guo Shubo was stunned for a moment, then said, "...but we don't know so many people!"
Lu Xiaoran had already expected: "Give you a year to help you set up a company that specializes in producing online dramas, called Xiaojuzi. You can form their own teams under my banner!"
"In a year?"
"Well, in a year, you two will hold on tight. You must know that we have also established a web drama production company specializing in youth campus production, Xiao Chengzi..."
"You two must be the first in the industry!"
Wang Wei suddenly asked: "Didn't you say you wanted to make an online drama by yourself?"
"You mean "Please Answer 2002"... That's too expensive, no online platform is willing to accept it for the time being, I'm going to wait."
...
"Please Answer 2002" tells the story of obsessed with f4...
Lu Xiaoran suddenly didn't want to do it anymore. Maybe he was disgusted. How to say it? The reporting platform was equivalent to rushing into the Qingqu Products Store and shouting: "You guys are making porn."
They are just making yellow!
Then he also called the police and threatened to run a sex toy store...
It ruined Xiao Luzi's last bit of affection for fans!
Guo Shubo and Wang Wei left the office with all their worries.
Boss Lu knew it was impossible to keep it for others. Those who had the ability didn’t want to work for others. Hot money poured into the film and television industry, and the first thing he did was to use money to smash people...
Just smash it yourself!
Establish subsidiaries and lay out industrial chains.
Lu Xiaoran continued to read the news and then got the news from "Light Media":
"Light Media and 360 work together to build a video website? Profit model...paid on demand..."
Hey, once a media company goes public, it must deploy the entire industrial chain - the Disney model is a proven successful model.
Now Netflix has come out, and a pair of film and television companies are targeting the video platform.
Chapter completed!
