"Don't be in a hurry, try to make it as perfect as possible, and it will be completed within two years." Zhao Mingyang and Li Yanqing said.
This thing must not be rushed, because this kind of algorithm will be something that Zhao Mingyang can win in the future.
Zhao Mingyang didn't know why no one did this in the rebirth novels he read in his previous life. This thing can be extended to many industries, not just selling products, but also developing many new things around algorithms.
Although the results of this thing are not visible in the early stage, as long as the research and development is successful, it will be a golden mountain. However, it requires continuous investment. If it can be completed in two or three years, it will be considered very fast.
After leaving Li Yanqing's office building, Zhao Mingyang went to the film and television company here to buy a few places for Daotian Entertainment and to place advertisements for Jifeng Automobile.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry. For example, to get a role in a Hollywood movie, you only need to pay a sponsorship fee. This sponsorship fee is usually three to four million US dollars. This is not a secret in Hollywood.
.
Bringing money into a film is a routine operation in Hollywood. Hollywood film studios have formed a fully mature commercial model. The film studio will meet the sponsor's requirements, but will arrange a role that is not painful or painful, which is basically soy sauce.
Most of them are calculated by the minute, and some only give a one-minute shot. Zhao Mingyang is here to spend money to advertise Jifeng Automobile. He will do a wave of advertising for the upcoming female-only car.
But Zhao Mingyang doesn't follow the previous routine, which is not cost-effective and often fails to achieve the expected results. He has to invest in a movie himself, and then let the director shoot according to the script he gave him, or give the core theme to the screenwriter and let the screenwriter create it.
A plot shot entirely in accordance with Zhao Mingyang's requirements.
After seeing the experience in his previous life, Zhao Mingyang knew that it was most uneconomical to bring money to join the group, but investing in a Hollywood movie, commercial, two hundred million US dollars is enough to make a big production.
The investment in literary and artistic films is even less, and you can make it with hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Zhao Mingyang wants to play a cool game. He is going to invest in a commercial blockbuster. The investment is about 200 million U.S. dollars. He will invite some Hollywood celebrities to come and star in it. If he does not use special effects, he will save a lot of costs and spend the money on hiring stars.
superior.
Then take the project and go to China to find sponsors. A Hollywood blockbuster with all Chinese elements. Except for some actors, all the actors must drive domestically produced cars.
Dwayne Johnson wears Metersbonwe, Schwab rides an Emma electric bike, Stallone drinks Piaopiao, all the children in the scene drink AD calcium milk, and the beauties all eat Weilong spicy strips [you can add more].
These domestic companies spend four to five million U.S. dollars or even tens of millions of U.S. dollars on advertising every year in movies and TV series.
If they could be allowed to go global and advertise in Hollywood movies, they might be able to spend a hundred million US dollars on advertising.
This is why many Hollywood companies later used domestic products everywhere, especially mobile phone ads.
This is because many domestic advertising companies have seen this market and mainly seek cooperation with Hollywood to ensure that they can attract sponsorship. Without investment and sponsorship, a movie cannot be launched, especially a large-scale production.
After the two parties have reached an agreement, the advertising company goes to negotiate with the domestic manufacturers and takes a commission from them, usually about 5% to 10%, and the one with the highest price gets it.
For example, in the Hollywood Transformers movie series that everyone is familiar with, each one has more domestic advertisements than the last. Advertisements for Shuhua milk are everywhere. The characters in the movie drink Shuhua milk when they are hungry. Do you think that is the end?
Transformers also includes Cippo, Metersbonwe, TCL, etc. In addition to Transformers, there are also Hollywood blockbusters such as The Avengers, which have appeared in Grain, Lenovo computers, and vivo mobile phones used by Captain America and Iron Man, etc.
The operational methods Zhao Mingyang used at this time were the same ones used by Goose Factory in his previous life. He invested in and distributed movies to embed his own advertisements, and all the chat software in the movies used QQ.
Calculating the cost, the salary of Hollywood's first-tier film is about 20 to 25 million U.S. dollars. At his peak, Uncle Long received a relatively high salary of 20,000 to 500,000 U.S. dollars. At his peak, Uncle Long's global box office appeal was
He still has some strength, but for the rest, most Chinese movie stars cannot reach this level.
Fat Brother's salary is around US$8 million, while Kung Fu Li's salary is around US$1,500. However, the salary of these two people dropped rapidly after that. You must know that Uncle Long pioneered the Kung Fu comedy genre, and only at this level can one have a lifetime in Hollywood.
Achievement Award.
However, after Hollywood movie stars have passed their prime, most of them have no more movies to film and can only become investors or directors behind the scenes.
Zhao Mingyang plans to invite a few international superstars first, and then make a romance film, all of which will be big celebrities. This will make it easy to insert advertisements. This film does not plan to have much repercussions and reputation, just to reduce his investment in publicity.
, find someone to share the advertising costs with you, which is equivalent to everyone pooling money together to shoot an advertising film.
As long as there are enough superstars, there is no fear of not having an audience to watch or no one paying attention. Actors in their prime years rarely accept such lucrative movies for fear of ruining their reputations, but veteran and semi-retired stars are not afraid of this. Everyone is here to earn some money for retirement.
Jin, anyway, I have had good works in the past to guarantee my reputation.
Zhao Mingyang called the lawyer's number that his cousin gave him and asked him to help introduce him. Lawyers are also called well-connected people here, and they know many people.
The other party asked Zhao Mingyang to wait for the call and make arrangements to tell him.
Zhao Mingyang wanted to go to the Lakers stadium for a walk, but he saw Liu Bingbing's circle of friends and she was filming in Chinatown here.
It's a coincidence. Let's give Bingbing a surprise and feed her well. She's probably starving...
Zhao Mingyang took a taxi to Chinatown. The driver was a Mexican and kept talking to Zhao Mingyang all the way. Zhao Mingyang dealt with it briefly and paid the fare and service fee at the destination.
The service fee here in the United States is basically 10% to 20% of the bill. When taking a taxi, Zhao Mingyang tipped 5 yuan for a taxi fare of 50 yuan. Normally, 10% is given because he thinks the driver's performance is average. It's nonsense all the way.
Not to mention, I was still complaining about a lot of negative emotions to Zhao Mingyang.
Tips at restaurants here are generally 10% to 15% for lunch, which will be calculated into the bill. Dinner tips are generally 15% to 20%, and there is no need to tip for takeout.
This is very different from that in China, which was generally unacceptable in China.
Zhao Mingyang came to Chinatown. Chinatown in Los Angeles is very large among Chinatowns. Uncle Long's Red Zone was filmed here, and the statue of Mr. Bruce Lee was also here.
There are a lot of people from Guangdong Fujian here, and Chinese restaurants are considered high-cost restaurants abroad. Generally, local families rarely go there, mainly because they are expensive.
Zhao Mingyang looked for it based on the photos sent by Liu Bingbing and asked many people. This area is connected by multiple blocks.
Just when Zhao Mingyang came to Liu Bingbing's filming location, he suddenly found a group of people gathered together. Something was wrong. Why were a group of foreigners there? There seemed to be people pointing their fingers and yelling.
Zhao Mingyang slowly approached and found that Liu Bingbing was also surrounded by the crowd.
"What's going on?" Zhao Mingyang asked a Chinese young man standing aside.
The other party said in English with a confused look on his face: "Do you know English? I don't know Chinese, but I can understand you."
Zhao Mingyang asked again in English. They were probably American Chinese. To be precise, they were American, but by definition they were Chinese.
"This crew from China is filming here, but one of the actors slept with his old girlfriend wearing a white turban in the bar last night. The other party brought someone to cause trouble and asked the crew to hand over the man, otherwise
We need to make this crew look good. These turbans and hats belong to gangs here. You know, there are many gangs here." said the Chinese young man,
