This Star Wants To Retire

100 million, what a joke?

He Yuanguang suspected that he was hallucinating.

It is true that with the explosion of the box office of Chinese movies, the total box office of movies has been rising every year, and there are even several phenomenal high-grossing works every year, which makes the cost of movies continue to rise.

However, He Yuanguang has never heard of a big animation movie with a production cost of 100 million.

As I said before, the total box office of animation movies is tens of millions, which is considered to be very powerful in the industry.

If it exceeds 100 million, it will create an industry myth.

Your cost is over 100 million, how much box office will you need to pay back?

He Yuanguang thought that Luo Mo knew nothing about the film and television industry, so he explained: "Luo Mo, the movie box office is not what you think, not all the box office can belong to us."

"Uncle Guang, of course I know that." Luo Mo said with a smile.

Under normal circumstances, producers and distributors can share about one-third of the total box office.

This value is not necessarily fixed and will fluctuate, depending on the situation.

Depending on the situation, some may get more, and some may get less than imagined.

"You know you still want to start a billion-level project?" He Yuanguang felt that Luo Mo was dazed.

He didn't even need to check the box office records online, because he was in this business, so he was familiar with the data, and said: "The current box office record for animation movies is "Panda Wars" during the Spring Festival last year, a children's movie. New Year's card for the whole family."

"Its final box office is 130 million." He Yuanguang said.

"130 million, equals to more than 40 million for the producer and distributor." He Yuanguang is just an estimate.

"However, the cost of this movie is 20 million. This is still the official cost announced to the public. It may actually be lower, so it is still a huge profit."

"But if you use 100 million yuan to do it, if your box office doesn't exceed 300 million yuan, then you will lose money!"

"This is equivalent to doubling the current box office record!" He Yuanguang felt that Luo Mo was somewhat naive.

Young people, just because they have created a god-level animation "Na Rabbit" with a high reputation, they should not think that they can kill people indiscriminately even if they enter the film industry.

If you say that the goal is to break 100 million at the box office, He Yuanguang will feel that this is a like-minded partner.

But if you want to break 300 million all of a sudden, He Yuanguang will have complicated emotions.

Luo Mo sipped the hot water in his cup, smiled slightly, and didn't say much.

He Yuanguang thought he was a little embarrassed, so he said, "But Luo Mo, I think your idea is right. In my opinion, domestic animation films have a good prospect, and maybe in a few years, there will really be productions. There is no certainty about a phenomenon-level work with a cost of over 100 million and a box office of over 300 million."

"Yeah." Luo Mo nodded with a serious expression.

He Yuanguang thought that he had calmed down, so he didn't want to be impetuous.

Unexpectedly, Luo Mo then said: "So, if you want to do it, be the first to do it!"

He Yuanguang: "???"

……..

……..

Luo Mo and He Yuanguang have different views, or different perspectives.

When he heard that the box office of "Panda Wars" was 130 million, instead of giving up the idea, he became more confident.

"It turns out that there are already children's animations with a box office of over 100 million in this world!" Luo Mo thought to himself.

You know, before the box office of anime movies exploded on the earth, there were almost no works with more than 100 million yuan.

It's just that the emergence of phenomenal works requires the right time, place and people.

Now, the word-of-mouth and market response of "That Rabbit" is very good, and this is a good starting point.

Naturally, it is impossible for Luo Mo to throw out a few "The Rabbit" in the animation industry, and then give up this market directly.

On the contrary, if the first step is taken steadily, then we must continue to walk.

Others look down on anime movies and think that they only earn such a little money if they are dying, but Luo Mo knows in his heart how scary it is!

And who made the first phenomenal work is very important and crucial.

It's as if he created the Chinese style, known as the originator of the Chinese style, and became a mountain monster.

Whoever props up the market first will be the big brother and the legend in the industry!

The first work that breaks people's cognition can often leave an indelible deep impression.

"If you want to do it, you have to do it quickly." Luo Mo thought to himself.

But on the topic of movies, Luo Mo did not continue to have an in-depth chat with He Yuanguang.

Instead, he chatted with him about taking a stake in Tongguang Studio and expanding the studio.

"If Boss Shen has no objections, I have neither." He Yuanguang readily agreed.

He appreciates Luo Mo's talent, even though his ideas are sometimes extremely scary.

He hopes that he and Luo Mo are in the same boat and become a community of interests.

"I've talked with Boss Shen about this issue, and he thinks it's OK." Luo Mo smiled and said, "The three of us will have dinner together some other day."

"Success." He Yuanguang nodded.

Then, he asked: "I've thought about expanding the scale a long time ago, but how big do you want to be?"

After he asked this question, he regretted it.

Sure enough, as he expected, Luo Mo's answer was: "It can be as big as it can be!"

He can't wait to pack the best talents in the country, the most advanced technology, the most awesome team... all in one package!

After all, he has no shortage of works in his mind.

Don't worry about not being able to ship, only worry about shipping too slowly!

Before everyone pays attention to this, hurry up and wave your hoe.

He Yuanguang: "..."

He took a deep breath and said, "Luo Mo, I'm telling the truth, we're not bragging."

"I've been in this industry for so many years. If I want to recruit some people to work together, or find a way to develop some advanced technology, as long as the money is in place, these are not difficult."

He has connections, resources, and channels...

"The point is, after all these are done, is there any project to do?" He Yuanguang said.

Just one "The Rabbit" series is not enough.

This short thing, everyone has no work to do after a while!

"Hey, Uncle Emotional Guang is looking for me to press the manuscript?" Luo Mo smiled and said.

He Yuanguang wants more animation scripts.

In fact, although everyone collaborated on "That Rabbit", after all, "That Rabbit" is very special, so He Yuanguang doesn't know if Luo Mo can write other styles and types of scripts.

When he said these words, he actually had no idea in his heart, and he was ready to be rejected by Luo Mo.

Compared with the lyrics, the animation script is too long.

He has just been awarded the title of "King of Love Songs", and his debut album is even more amazing. It is estimated that it will become even more popular next year.

In comparison, how much money does it take to make an anime?

With that time, wouldn’t it be nice to write a few more songs?

The industry is sluggish, so it's a bit presumptuous.

Unexpectedly, Luo Mo immediately agreed, and said, "I'll send you back at night."

"Huh?" He Yuanguang was startled again.

"Have you finished writing?" He was shocked.

In his concept, shouldn't Luo Mo be so busy with "The King of Love Songs" this time?

Creation takes time and inspiration.

"It's finished." Luo Mo shrugged and said, "Don't look at me like a monster."

"I, I just used other people's coffee time to type." Luo Mo said with a smile.

……..

……..

Luo Mo has maintained several good habits since he traveled through time.

One is the practice of basic skills. Every day, I will practice my voice, dance, and musical instruments.

The other is to sit in front of the computer for an hour every day and write some "messy" things.

It may be writing lyrics and making tunes.

It could also be writing scripts, writing future plans, or something else.

In short - no diary.

Serious person who keeps a diary?

The kind of person who writes in his diary "the taste of a witch is awesome", or "I have nothing to do today, go to the bar to listen to the music", can it be a serious person?

Luo Mo had already made plans for animation.

The series of "The Rabbit" has already matured, and it's time for the two to blossom!

There are many good works in his mind, but they must be targeted.

He feels that in the process of making animation, it is best to exercise the studio to a certain extent.

The painting style of "The Rabbit" is relatively simple, and the production is relatively easy.

Since I still want to make a movie in the future, why not make a work that is more difficult to make before making a movie?

"First polish the team well." Luo Mo thought to himself.

He does things with a plan, a purpose, and an idea.

It's definitely not thinking about it all the time, doing this for a while, and doing that for a while.

In the past, the studio may still be making things with a simple style of painting, and then they will make Disney-level movies as soon as they get excited. Isn’t this rubbish novel?

At half past eight in the evening, Luo Mo and He Yuanguang went back to their respective homes.

After returning home, he took a hot shower first, and then sent a script to He Yuanguang's personal mailbox.

"This is a work that breaks the play record of Xiaopozhan's promotional video with only one PV, and sets the record for the most animation PV in the industry."

"Whether it is the playback volume or word-of-mouth, it is extremely high."

"The production is at the top level, and the story structure and world view are also at the top level in China."

"It can even lead to thinking about human nature and civilization."

Luo Mo thought about this, and felt that He Yuanguang was really lucky to meet him.

This anime was produced by Yihua Getian... No, Yihua Kaitian.

"I guess Uncle Guang will be so worried about how to do it well that he will lose his hair." Luo Mo smiled.

On the other side, after He Yuanguang received the email, he couldn't wait to open it.

His wife, who wanted to have a second child with him, was already lying on the bed in lace pajamas.

He Yuanguang knew that he had a heavy task and that today was a good time to conceive a second child, so he comforted him: "I'll just read the name and outline to satisfy my curiosity, and I'll come as soon as I finish reading, ten minutes at most. "

Then, he quickly walked into the study and downloaded the script.

He Yuanguang really wanted to know what kind of surprises Luo Mo could bring him after "Things About That Rabbit That Year".

The title of this new work is only two words.

He Yuanguang looked at the name and couldn't figure out what this thing was about.

He read it aloud: "The Spirit Cage."

(ps: The second update, ask for a monthly pass!)
