Well, that's right. Although there are many posts and videos on the Internet that complain about blockbusters at this stage, the circle is still biased towards blockbusters...

In recent years, domestic blockbusters have been creating box office records after box office.

The film industry hopes to bring back movie fans who have left the cinema through big productions and use blockbusters to save Chinese movies so that only blockbusters can have audiences. This is a consensus!

In the field of economics, this is right.

Large investments reap big profits, while small investments reap small profits. This is an iron rule.

Otherwise it will not be called business.

But, this is not OK with the movie!

Films are not only about investment, but also about artistic standards.

As a commodity, movies are also works of art, and human factors occupy a large proportion.

To put it bluntly, the value of the script, the talent of the director, the selection and performance level of the actors, and the technical content of production and distribution will directly affect the final box office value of a film.

Chen Mengxi really wants to have a good chat with the reporters (pretending to show off) and talk about the development trends of Chinese films in the next five years. Unfortunately, time does not allow...

"...I'm going to catch a plane to Shanghai soon. Let's do this. I'll go back and write a Weibo. No, it's a blog. If you have any questions, you should be able to find the answers in it..."

Why did you talk about Weibo again?

Damn, why didn’t Zhalang make a Weibo post yet?

Not convenient to promote...

...

Chen Mengxi had thought about doing Weibo by herself, making Pinduoduo or Toutiao today, or simply making Meituan...

The key is that he knows nothing about this thing...

The skills are not on the Internet at all, and at most you can only enjoy the convenience of major platforms.

However, if you have money in the future, you can serve as an investor. If you invest in one or two rounds, someone will take over and retreat immediately...

Before Weibo, Zhalang mainly blogged, and Chen Mengxi also has a blog, and the click rate has been quite high recently - he has written a lot of behind-the-scenes stories about "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and "Rose Red Lotus"...

If you run yourself into an IP, you can cash in the future.

But the influence is definitely not as good as those who often play blogs, such as the talented woman Xu, the talented man Han, and the like, and even more so than the public official Li...

To be honest, if "Rose Red Lotus" had not been adapted by a Korean film company and Shen Mengxi's participation in the investment in "Crazy Stone" and "Double-sided Glue", Chen Mengxi would have been a little famous best-seller at most...

He is preparing to enter the film market in countries around the world and then conclude that low-cost production, especially comedy and drama films, will be a trend in the development of Chinese films.

...

"Stone" has just been released, and the media has begun to build momentum online!

The promotional effect of spending money and not spending money is really different.

Of course, it is definitely not as good as "Hero", and their publicity resources are national-level!

First of all, the Beijing News, the front page of the entertainment industry, the title is "Black Stone, the Source of Crazy", and various praises "Crazy Stone" and calls it "new hope for Chinese movies";

Sooth, NetEase also reported on "Crazy Stone" in a special topic, and wrote a lot of behind-the-scenes gossip, uh, basically all of them are reported around Liu Dehua:

For example, Liu Dehua originally arranged the role of "traffic police", but at that time he was acting in "Mo Gong" and had a beard. Because Chinese traffic police could not grow a beard, he gave up. We lost the style of King Liu as a Chongqing traffic policeman at the opening; later he fell and injured his leg in "Mo Gong", and the filming of "Mo Gong" was delayed by another week, so there was no time. However, Liu Dehua has been confirmed to star in "Crazy Stone 2", so we can look forward to the style of King Liu!'

There is no way, the selling point of "Crazy Stone" is Liu Dehua's investment!

Tianya, Tieba, there have also been a large number of Amway's posts recommending "Crazy Stone"...

The main base for early publicity is the Internet!

At this time, in Shanghai, a group of people were staying at the hotel where the crew of "Double-Side Sticker" were surrounded by Chen Liming, wanting him to talk about "Crazy Stone".

——Never, there has been so many reports since a low-cost movie was released!

But Chen Liming didn't know anything about "Stone", but he knew that Chen Mengxi valued Ning Hao very much, so he told the truth: "This movie project was recommended by Mengxi. He had seen a drama adapted from the script before, called "Diamond". He told me that the script was written very well, and then he pulled me to invest!"

"Mengxi also handled the publicity matters, and he spent 3 million!"

Li Mingyi, another producer of "Double-Side Sticker", asked him: "Then how many have you voted in total?"

Chen Liming calculated and replied: "It should not exceed 5 million, what's wrong?"

"...Aren't you afraid of being wasted?"

"Impossible, I believe in Mengxi's vision!"

Teng Huatao suddenly interrupted: "If I make a movie in the future..."

"As long as there is no problem with Mengxi, I will definitely vote!"

Chen Liming answered quickly.

Haha, it is still the entrepreneurial period. Chen Liming and Chen Mengxi work together, and the two have not even established basic positions...

The little fat man obeyed Chen Mengxi's basic words, but it will be hard to say in the future!

After all, as the company grows, many dirty things will happen...

At the same time, directors Rong Xingda and Li Shaohong are working on a new project - the "Absolute Privacy" series.

This series is collaborated with the film channel and is adapted from "Absolute Privacy - A Verbal Record of Contemporary Chinese Emotional Oral Records". Ten short stories can be made into ten TV movies...

Alas, the sorrow of the workshop-style company can only be pointed at Li Shaohong's start of construction to maintain the company's daily expenses.

The reason why "Red Lotus" asked Yau Yau to adapt the script and asked him to direct the crew as the deputy director, mainly because he valued Yau Yau's efficiency!

Yau Litao is a famous fast gunner, and his works do not exceed the budget, and even save a lot, and have a guaranteed level. He has always been a regular customer of investors...

With his help, "Rose Red Lotus", oh, has now been renamed, and the filming of "Sister Charming Love" is very smooth. It ends in two months and she is about to be released early next year.

Just then, someone knocked on the door, and she looked up and it was Li Xiaowan...

"Haven't gone home yet?"

Li Xiaowan said.

Li Shaohong bowed his head and continued to study "Absolute Privacy": "I will arrange this project later..."

Rong Xingda was jointly established by Li Xiaowan and Li Shaohong. One of them is responsible for selling dramas, films, running a company, and the other is responsible for works, which complement each other...

"Tell you something!"

"…What's up?"

"Our big screenwriter invested in a movie, do you know?"

"…The big screenwriter...oh, what did you think that sinking?"

"Chen Mengxi!"

Chen Mengxi is too arrogant and has to be nicknamed: Big Screenwriter!

Li Shaohong was interested: "What did he do?"

Li Xiaowan continued: "I invested in a movie that costs less than 4 million...it's called "Crazy Stone"..."

"4 million? Is he looking for death?"

It is generally recognized in the circle that a movie investment of 3 million to 5 million yuan is a "death figure", and a movie investment of 2 million to 3 million yuan is considered a try.

Why?

Because of an investment of about 2 million yuan, the movie channel can digest it!

"I am full of confidence and said that the movie can exceed 100 million!"

Li Shaohong couldn't help laughing: "Break 100 million? It's quite swearing!"
Chapter completed!
