Back To 2005

Compared to the uproar on the Internet, Blue Whale Entertainment did not respond at all, as if it was an outsider.

Everyone in the industry knows that if the trailers of the two movies have been released so far, and the remaining scenes are half the size, the investment will definitely be lost.

Look at the remuneration of the protagonists in the two movies, including the Oscar winner. Each movie costs at least hundreds of millions or even more than 200 million. Is it really true that 200 million is spent on the protagonists and 300 million on the movie?

It seems that special effects on this scale cost millions of dollars a minute.

If we really let a foreign special effects company do it, the entire movie would be impossible to make without 50 or 60 million US dollars.

What's more, Blue Whale Entertainment, which owns a domestic high-end special effects company, has not received relevant news at all.

Perhaps the best part is in the trailer.

"That's right. Didn't Blue Whale collaborate with director Li Donglai back then? Why is there no news?"

"That's right, is Blue Whale scared?"

"It's just that, it's too fast."

"Why do the higher-ups care so much? Just watch these two movies."

"Support the "Battle of Magic City" and defeat the "Guardian of the Earth"."

""Guarding the Earth" is number one, unparalleled."

"I want to buy ten tickets for "Battle of Magic City"."

Some people want to take the lead and say that Blue Whale Entertainment is cowardly, but they are drowned in the tide of praise for the two major films and cannot make any waves.

On the Internet, everyone was praising the trailers of the two movies, and no one paid attention to Blue Whale Entertainment, which had also been in the limelight before.

"Your strategy of spending money to promote them is so good. Even if they want to bring us negative news, they can't bring it forward. No one cares about it at all. Now they are getting more and more hyped. When the movie is released, it will not be satisfactory. , the worse their reputation falls..."

Sitting in the general manager's office, Feng Jiming held his mobile phone and complimented the major shareholders with a smile, and also derived the profound meaning behind the development of a series of operations.

As a senior industry insider, Feng Jiming naturally got some information and knew that the two trailers were specially made by top foreign special effects teams specially hired by both parties.

Moreover, the filming of those two movies was not completed at all, and the progress was not half as fast as their "The Martian". I heard that one of the actors even went on strike due to casting issues, so the news was covered up.

Opponents like this have no competitiveness at all.

Making movies is still the conscience of Blue Whale Entertainment.

If you say 300 million investment, it is 300 million investment. It will only be more, not less, and the actors' remuneration is less than 20%. The sophistication of the film is not comparable to that of domestic counterparts.

However, as an industry insider, Feng Jiming would not expose his opponent. After all, it would not only affect one or two people.

Only by making Blue Whale Entertainment the strongest in the country, and even the world, will they have the opportunity to formulate rules.

"Routine operations."

Listening to General Manager Feng stating all the "deep-seated" reasons that he had never thought of, Zhou Anan, who had no words to refute, could only respond with the most concise and plain words, maintaining the demeanor of a major shareholder.

Who knows how General Manager Feng came up with these profound meanings?

"The scripts of several online dramas are almost perfected. When will you have time to take a look at them? If you have any suggestions for revision, we will be pressing for the video tomorrow."

"Send me TT."

"This won't leak, right?"

"..."

Zhou Anan, who still had the last major exam left, had no intention of reviewing at all, so she clicked on the transferred folder and started reading the novel.

No, to be more precise, I should have studied the script.

Salted fish and work are completely different in nature, and this must be clearly distinguished.

The two scripts previously selected from the company's script library plus the two scripts he conceived and hired someone to write. Under the adaptation of several popular Internet writers and unknown screenwriters, the plot is quite ups and downs, every time. There are many highlights in one episode.

However, Zhou Anan, who has watched many online dramas, felt that the plot was a bit not compact enough.

The attractive aspect of online dramas, in addition to various elements that cannot be presented on satellite TV, is that the plot is fast and compact, keeping the audience tense at all times and eager to continue watching.

Anyway, Tomorrow Video only gives a total purchase amount, and there is no standard for how much each episode will cost. There is no need to delay the plot just to collect the number of episodes.

Therefore, many unnecessary plots can be deleted to streamline the plot and improve the sense of compactness.

Of course, those famous scenes of love and love cannot be deleted, and a little more must be added. Being constantly tense is not good for the audience who are following the drama, and they need a buffer.

However, after reading the four scripts, Zhou Anan always felt that something was missing.

In terms of the plot, a few changes will be enough; the actors are basically fine, as there are many artists in the company, especially female artists; in terms of the director, some adjustments are needed, but it's not a big problem.

Well, it seems that the investment in several dramas is not very large, and there are no special effects. The most expensive one may be the costume drama, but it shouldn't cost too much.

Two hundred million to purchase the online rights to four TV series seems a bit too high.

Blue Whale Entertainment is also a shareholder of Tomorrow Video, so they can’t make money so hard, which is a bit unjustifiable.

A certain female artist from the company flashed through his mind. Zhou Anan, who was so blessed, created a new word document and started typing words.

In this case, let's add another drama.

Controlling the profit from that amount of money within 100 million, he is really a conscientious entrepreneur.

After all, he, the major shareholder, still needs to take action personally.

"Ann, what are you writing about?"

Shi Mingxia, who came back from the school study room, saw her boyfriend working seriously in front of his laptop. He went over and hugged his neck, and asked playfully in his ear.

"Write love letters."

Taking his girlfriend into his arms, Zhou Anan lifted his girlfriend's chin and answered with a smile.

"Then I'll write one for you too."

"good."

Before meeting his girlfriend Wen Chun, Zhou Anan didn't forget to save the document of several thousand words he had written earlier.

"My hands are rusty."

It took two days. Before the last exam, Zhou Anan sent a 20,000-word outline and four script revision comments to General Manager Feng.

As a veteran novel fan with foresight and many years of experience watching TV series, Zhou Anan feels that her opinion is still relatively important.

According to the investment scale of these five online dramas, without much special effects expenses, Blue Whale Entertainment can earn at least half of the 200 million.

Of course, if it gets a good reputation after being broadcast online and a TV station takes a fancy to it, half of the copyright fee sold will be taken away by Tomorrow Video.

This can be regarded as the first batch of online customized dramas in this era.

"It's a day off."

When the last exam ended, a few boys cheered as usual, but others seemed very calm.

After living in college for a long time, people will have less expectations for the holidays.

In fact, ordinary life is too comfortable.

Of course, those students from double first-class universities with strict requirements may be looking forward to the holidays more.

Compared with ordinary primary and secondary school students, Haizhou College's holiday is more than a week earlier, so many part-time students will stay until the primary and secondary school holidays.

"Hello"

As soon as he walked out of the examination room with his girlfriend, Zhou Anan looked at the number displayed on the screen of his mobile phone and answered it with confusion.

"Zhou An'an, I'm sorry, I accidentally touched your car again."

Sitting in the parking lot in front of the administrative building, Qi Baoying stood next to the car and looked at the scratched parts of the two cars. She held her mobile phone and apologized with an embarrassed look on her face.
