NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 207: Fan Meeting

This warmth made Xiao Jiangchao find a home in the cold winter night.

She must be a passionate widowed sister.

"Would you like to visit our crew tomorrow? The staff are all eager to see you."

"What's the rush? I haven't had enough fun yet."

Jiang Chao buried his head in the gentle countryside with snow-white skin.

I and the female general took off their war robes and spent the warm springtime in the hibiscus tent.

The green dragon is full of crushing, touching and picking again. From now on, the king will not come to court early!

…

Under Jiang Jiang's arrangement, there is a Chaoshen Entertainment office in Los Angeles, which is like an office. It allows people from Chaoshen Entertainment to have a base in Los Angeles. There is nothing we can do about it, although Jiang Chao doesn't want to work with Hollywood movies.

Dealing with factories, but his company now has to rely on Hollywood, and basically every movie and TV series has cooperation with Hollywood.

Even the "Sword" he invested in was due to his investment in the production and the use of Hollywood's special effects team to realize the real flying sword!

Even the national teacher Lao Mouzi outsourced everything except the screenwriting and directing teams. He even did not choose his own people for the lighting team, which is very good in China, for special effects, editing, and poster promotion. It can only be said that the Hollywood team is the best in the world.

.

However, although Jiang Chao invited him, each of his teams would bring an intern from Chaoshen Entertainment. Regardless of his nationality, this intern must work with these Hollywood teams.

This is an indirect internship. There is no way. If you want the industry chain to be self-sufficient, poaching people is too expensive. This is the only way to train people.

Jiang Chao was not a famous director in his previous life, and he knew nothing about these techniques.

Of course, as long as this system can develop, it will directly rival the major Hollywood film and television companies!!

Needless to say, the importance of the industrial chain and its nature of profit-making can be seen from the one-stop industrial chain for tourists in the Knicks. Every link saves money and makes money.

The production of these niche movies and TV series can be outsourced now, but what about the blockbusters in the future?

For things like Wandering Earth, outsourcing would be a waste of money.

Here, Jiang Chao first followed Scarlett to the crew of "Super Body", which he invested zero money in, to see what the top crew in Hollywood is like and learn from it.

Then I discovered that Luc Besson was too casual, and that was all the crew did, mainly relying on him alone.

This guy not only has the romance of a French-style literary film, but also has a strong commercial social imprint, while at the same time he is wrapped in the momentum of a Hollywood blockbuster.

When Luc Besson found out that Jiang Chao was visiting, he directly asked him to sit in the chief director's seat and experience it, because he felt that Jiang Chao was a genius who was extremely sensitive to movies. Otherwise, why would he find Scarlett so suitable for the heroine?

The character is so grateful to Jiang Chao that he even wants to pay for the introduction.

This made Jiang Chao dumbfounded:

"If you really want to thank me, I have several crews nearby. You can help check them out."

The inspection is actually a free tutor. He is very good at developing the acting skills of female characters, especially beautiful women.

Moreover, his fast-paced, fashionable and weird style can arouse people's expectations in almost every film.

This style can help any director's shooting rhythm.

In today's commercial era, whether you are making a literary film, a niche film, or a science fiction film, the first thought is to make money. This is the most real idea, so rhythm is really important.

Jiang Chao then went to the "True Detective" crew in a small town next door.

This is completely different, because except for Matthew McConaughey, almost all of them are newcomers, and the atmosphere on the set is very good. You can tell that the actors in this town are old actors at a glance. When Scarlett's car was parked outside the set,

If there weren't so many people on the crew, Jiang Chao would really feel like he was in an uninhabited village.

However, because this TV series is in the style of a thriller, the director did not allow anyone to laugh and laugh on the set, and let everyone get into the state of investigating.

This also caused Daddario, Omei and a bunch of staff who wanted to chat with Jiang Chao and ask for autographs to hold back their surprises.

Damn, this is the big boss. The investor who is the source of the story of this TV series. Why do you say the source of the story? Because Jiang Chaoya doesn’t understand the TV series "True Detective" very well. He just refers to the king in yellow robes as a serial criminal.

, the life background of the protagonist... and the documentary-style format were discussed with the original director, and he still wrote the specific script.

But that's enough. The outside world only knows that he is the owner of the Knicks, a half-singer-songwriter, and a sneaker designer.

But only the crew knows how talented he is!

This story is so immersive! So much so that everyone thought they were involved in a case where the murderer was unknown, and even suspected that the two male protagonists were the murderers.

Jiang Chao and Scarlett didn't bother them either. They looked around the set as if they were field staff, but they always felt a bit sinister.

Especially the temperaments of the two police detectives, Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, are amazing.

There are no more real police detectives than these two. Without excessive muscles, one has a big belly, and the other is lean and unkempt, but looks more like a criminal.

The smell of holding the cigarette butt and smoking it made Jiang Chao want to smoke one. However, he was afraid that McConnell was too involved in the scene and so he pulled Jiang Chao, the only one smoking on the set, and cuffed him.

Resisted the urge to smoke.

Then he went to the logistics trailer to watch the recently edited clips.

The advantage of finding an "original" director is obvious. Jiang Chao basically doesn't need to make any modifications, he still has something in his head.

From the painting style to the dialogue of the characters in the lines and even the soundtrack that heightens the atmosphere, it is perfect.

At this time, the assistant director who was showing the edited clips to Jiang Chao asked Jiang Chao when this TV series would premiere, or whether he planned to finish filming before broadcasting or change to a filming and broadcasting mode. This has its own considerations.

This involves how TV dramas make money.

This is also where Jiang Chao struggled. There are advantages to broadcasting after filming and broadcasting while filming. For example, in "Game of Thrones", there are too many screenwriting methods where whoever gets a good response will be written more.

It’s easy to understand how movies make money. It’s the box office. If your movie is well shot and your box office is high, after excluding your filming expenses, the rest is the money you earn.

Therefore, whenever a movie is released, the director, producer, and actors will vigorously promote it, hoping that the audience will go to the cinema and donate ticket money.

Then add other online copyright income such as (Youtube, Youku and other online platforms) TV copyright income and overseas copyright income. The copyright income will be distributed to you according to the share of the shares you hold.

If you look at the box office of a movie, the ratings of a TV series will mainly depend on it.

(Note: Rating refers to the percentage of the number of people watching a TV program to the total number of viewers within a fixed period of time. The conversion formula is rating = number of people watching a certain program/total number of viewers. In addition to the ratings of the program, there are also

Time period viewership ratings and other related statistical indicators.)

TV dramas are also produced by producers who sell TV dramas co-created by directors, screenwriters, and actors to major TV stations, and the TV stations receive money.

Or it's a one-time buyout, or how much an episode costs.

TV dramas are also broadcast in the first round and the second round, and the prices are different. This is why a TV series is broadcast on many TV stations.

TV stations make money from advertisers by inserting advertisements during the broadcast of TV series.

For TV series, one is to sell them to TV stations, which is the most basic way; the other is to insert advertisements at the end or beginning of the TV series to make money from advertisers.

A good TV series does not worry about making money. On the contrary, once the TV series is produced, major TV stations and online platforms will rush to buy the broadcast rights of this TV series, especially the first broadcast rights.

Under normal circumstances, after a TV series is produced, it will not be sold to just one TV station or a certain organization, but to multiple organizations at the same time.

Therefore, copyright is very important for TV series, and it is something that can be sold in multiple countries and is rarely pirated.

After all, everyone watches TV series for free on the TV, and no one really buys CDs for any TV series.

Later dramas such as "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "Story of Yanxi Palace" were sold in more than 100 countries. The copyright revenue alone was more than 300 million yuan, and the average copyright fee per episode was as high as 5 million per episode.

Then it can also be made into discs or sold online, but this form has not been widely promoted due to the limitations of Internet speed. Otherwise, the membership model of iQiyi Paixun Video will be another version of the TV series.

Another way of income is sponsorship fee income. Many TV series will find investors before they start filming. Among these investors, some may be sponsoring to obtain copyright income, while others may be sponsoring purely for advertising.

Jiang Chao is the kind of person who fully sponsors and wants to get copyright income, and this "True Detective" has no advertising sponsorship. One is that he is not famous, and the sponsors don't believe that Jiang Chao will produce a good TV series, and this one

The drama is also not suitable for advertising placement.

Therefore, you can see that in some TV series, some sponsors are listed at the end. These sponsors may be for advertising, and some may provide money to support the male and female protagonists in obtaining positions.

This method is the way Jiang Chao invested in "Game of Thrones" and "Sword and Fairy" by bringing money into the team. "Game of Thrones" successfully brought Long Ma and Omei into the team, while Sword and Fairy signed two actresses as a result.

For Jiang Chao, "True Detective" also includes premium income and peripheral copyright income.

The TV series that many actors participate in are basically invested by the companies they have signed contracts with. Once the TV series that they participate in becomes popular and their popularity increases, in addition to the income from the TV itself, their own worth will also rise accordingly.

Then their commercial activities will naturally increase, such as participating in various commercial activities, accepting various commercial advertisements, etc., and part of the income earned by actors participating in these activities will be given to the companies they contract with.

And it just so happened that the two female leads in "True Detective" were both from Jiang Chao's company. You know, True Detective became popular in later generations, partly because Daddario was so beautiful.

Furthermore, if a TV series is relatively popular, its commercial value is very high. Naturally, many people will want to ride on the popularity of the TV series. For example, some clothing brands may use some images of the characters, and some toy companies

It is possible to design the cartoon character of the protagonist in the TV series, and some game companies may directly adapt it into games, etc.

This "True Detective" doesn't really match up, but "Game of Thrones" and "Sword of Sword" are very suitable. It's just a pity that the copyright of Sword and Sword 3 is not mine in the first place, but this aspect has to be left to the game developer of Sword and Sword 3.

Copyright fees.

Anyway, there are still many ways to make money in TV dramas in this era. In a few years, it will be more comfortable after the substantial rise of online video websites. Some old high-quality TV dramas may have their copyrights bought at this time, such as the later B station, Playing with Feelings, Both Sides

All make money.

Of course, because the quality of TV series varies and the market capacity is only so large, consumers have more choices.

There will definitely be some TV series that will lose money in the end, and the TV series that will lose money are not just a few, but the majority.

So the initial premiere is still very important.

At least it represents its initial popularity. If it doesn't sell well at first, it may suddenly rise one day later, but if it sells well at the beginning, it will definitely bring in a steady stream of income.

The assistant director felt that this investment expert must have made the decision.

"It doesn't work during the New Year period. Everyone is happy and we can't watch something scary like this. Let's do it in the second half of the New Year. At this time, everyone has come out of the New Year happiness and can calm down."

"Okay, just follow what the boss wants."

Jiang Chao had already made up his mind. This was all thanks to Kanna Hashimoto. She also found out the specific launch times of blockbusters and big-budget TV series, so Jiang Chao perfectly staggered those ones.

.

In his opinion, "True Detective" is something that should be watched quietly and alone, certainly not during the winter vacation. During the winter vacation in China, no one can sit down and watch this kind of immersive documentary, because you have to visit the seven major universities at every turn.

Aunt Guba.

The same goes for several other films. It is impossible to have a serious collision with commercial films. If he wants to compete with them, he will just let a few women play a sideshow and make a pure high movie, but this is not what he wants to do.

His super entertainment can obviously rely on his appearance, but he must rely on his strength to win!

For example, this immersive crime film "True Detective" has received unanimous praise from the crew. It is a type of criminal investigation film that no one has seen before, and it is also a film that Daddario and model worker Omei are addicted to.

O'Mei has been working in both roles recently. Because her appearance is so suitable for the 18-year-old underage girl who sells her body in the woods in "True Detective", she was chosen by the director. As a result, she has been cast in "True Detective" and "Game of Thrones".

Come on, she is also an important character in "Game of Thrones" and has a wide range of roles.

In fact, the one that received the most praise was "Pumping Heartbeat" directed by Jiang Chao's Chaoshen Entertainment.

The script was purely based on what Jiang Chao wrote day and night.

This made everyone feel for the first time how heart-pounding this second-generation celebrity writer Lily Collins is!!

Scarlett said this to Lily Collins:

"In terms of casting, no one can compare with Jiang Chao."

Lily Collins looked at the young actors crazily surrounding Jiang Chao and smiled bitterly:

"In terms of popularity, too..."
