I'm not just an action star

Chapter 503 The production cost is too high, can you follow

Chatting with Scott, Scott did not hide.

Joint investment by multiple film companies?

This is something that has never happened before in film history.

Tsk tsk, they are all competitors.It is because of him that they can unite.It can be seen that the power of capital is extremely terrifying and terrifying.

It is said that it is competition, but it is just a competition between capitals.Once there is a strong external force or strong interests, they will still join together.

Carry it hard at this time?

not good.

At this moment, the Master was able to bear it hard, but the Master was aware of Wu Long's intention and strength.And he is not strong enough.The layout has been completed, but the fans are not wide enough and firm enough.

When he said it was true, his fans all over the world still firmly believed in him, which gave him enough ability to compete against the giants.

In the face of the cooperation of other film companies, in fact, the most painful thing is Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures.The cake they ate well was robbed.

It's really blocking people's way of making money, such as killing parents, this is a sworn hatred.

However, if Wu Long does not agree to other film companies at this time, the enmity between Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures will not be deep enough.

Only by making Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures hurt to the bone, and hating other film companies to the point of incompatibility, can Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures be completely tied to Wu Long's chariot.

In the future, Wu Long will leave Haolaihu, and Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures will be the fortress Wu Long puts in Haolaihu to deal with other film giants.

Other film companies and film giants want to prevent Wu Long and mainland China films from entering the global market and the North American market, and their own Lion Films and Weina Films are fighting with them.

At this time, Wu Long rejected other film companies, that is, Wu Long rushed to the forefront, fighting with other film companies.

Wu Long is not that stupid.

After making up his mind, Wu Long considered what movie to make.He thought of the "Lord of the Rings" series, and the "Hobbit" series.

In fact, the original version of these two series, "The Lord of the Rings" was filmed first, and "The Hobbit" was filmed later.But the chronological order in the movie world is that "The Hobbit" comes first, and "Lord of the Rings" comes after.The Hobbit is a prequel to The Lord of the Rings.

And "The Hobbit" was shot in 3D.

Therefore, if he really wants to shoot, Wu Long still chooses to shoot the "Lord of the Rings" series first. The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was filmed at one time. It took a year to shoot and cut three films.

When choosing a film, one must consider how much the production cost is suitable for.Since those film companies have teamed up to get a piece of the pie, he can't be too merciful.

The production cost of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is 100 million US dollars, and each part is more than 9000 million US dollars when apportioned.

三部全球总票房为29亿一千750多万美刀。除了第三部收获一11亿多美刀,前两部分别是9亿多美刀和8亿多美刀。

Calculated, the average return on investment is about 10, which is considered a hit.

But, is Wu Long willing to let those film companies make so much money?

Besides, if these film companies jointly invest, in order to make more money, they will definitely try their best to arrange more screenings and spend more money on publicity.

Therefore, the global box office of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy should be higher than $30 billion.

Assuming the total global box office is 30 billion US dollars, based on the return on investment of 5, that is the production cost of [-] million US dollars.Looking at the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the production cost of the three films of [-] million US dollars is not high.

So, if they're begging for a shot, why save them money?

Calculated on the basis of the return on investment rate of 3, the production cost of the three films is [-] million.If you like to shoot or not, if you don't shoot, you will fall down.Anyone who does not want to invest money will withdraw.Anyway, with so many film companies, are you afraid that you won't be able to raise enough money?

They themselves said that the big production is comparable to the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.Of course, a large production corresponds to a high production cost, which is very reasonable.

They choose, of course, to satisfy them.

The return on investment rate is 3, which is barely passable.If you pass the test, you can pass it.

As for Wu Long's reputation, well, it's bad once.

He always said that he would not fail, and let everyone see that Wu Long finally missed, Wu Long finally went downhill.Some people have said these words for so many years and so many times, and they should always make their wishes come true.

"I'll think about it, and think about it, to see if there is any creative inspiration. You might as well contact them more and see how to contribute."

Wu Long didn't agree right away, but his answer can basically be confirmed, and he agreed to such cooperation.

Scott was very happy and offered to be an assistant director by the way.

Wu Long was surprised.

"Are you kidding? Are you going to be my assistant director? You have won the best director. You are a top-notch director in Haolaihu. Many people beg you to make movies. You are going to be my assistant director. I am afraid that others will scold me."

"How can I scold you. I watched your "Frozen" and it was really admirable. Your directing style is very diverse, and you can make any movie. This is something I need to learn. If you really treat me as a friend , just promise me. Unless, you don't want me to learn your skills, for fear that I will surpass you."

Scott made one last joke.

"Okay. Since you want to, I promise you. But, let me explain first. I make movies, and I need others to obey unconditionally. Even if I am older and have more qualifications than me, I will not be polite. I am worried that if I work Getting angry with you will affect our friendship in the future."

"I understand, I will obey your command. I will not lose our friendship because of you."

The studios were delighted to hear from Scott the next day.Wu Long really valued friendship, and with Scott's presence, Wu Long really agreed to cooperate.

Wu Long informed Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures of the matter.As for whether the two film companies want to participate, Wu Long doesn't care, it's up to them to decide.

Saying this, Wu Long seemed very frank.It also implies that Lion Films and Weiner Films, other film companies see that they eat too much, and no longer care about the rules.

Does it hurt?If you have a heartache, you will hate other film companies for stealing your money with jealousy.

When the executives of Lion Films and Weiner Films received the news, they were so angry that they scolded other film companies.

More than just a heartache, the heart hurts even more.How can they not be angry and angry when they rob them of their money?

They can't blame Wu Long.It's just that Wu Long is not strong enough to fight against the cooperation of other film companies.

But the matter has come to this point, Lion Films and Weiner Films will naturally not give up their participation, the high-level executives of the two companies negotiated urgently, and decided that the two film companies will secretly join forces in the future.

This time they failed to admit it, pretended that they did not join forces, and talked to other film companies separately, asking to join.

Other film companies did not want Lion Pictures and Weina Pictures to participate in the production of this film, but Lion Pictures and Weina Pictures put on a desperate posture, which made other film companies fearful.

Although other film companies have joined forces, the competition and conflicts between them will not be eliminated.After negotiation, Lion Films and Weina Films can only be allowed to participate together.

A week later, Wu Long took out the script and negotiated with those film companies.Scott was the intermediary and appointed an assistant director, who also participated in this negotiation.

Instead of showing the script, Wu Long put forward his own conditions first.

The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy has a one-year shooting cycle and three films have been cut.Use the best special effects to create the grandest and most fantastic medieval war scene.

The total production cost is 30 million U.S. dollars, and the total global box office of the three films is estimated to exceed [-] billion (not guaranteed).

Wu Long, as the director, screenwriter, and soundtrack, will share the dividends.His dividend cannot be less than that of the film company that has invested the most.

In addition, if you want to use those epic classics, you have to pay.This was created in advance, so it is naturally counted as purchasing the right to use it.

Wu Long also added that for these three films, he only directed and did not participate in the acting.The assistant director appoints Scott, and the actors are selected by Scott. Wu Long usually does not interfere.

The production cost was [-] million US dollars!

Whoa!

Just hearing this number, the film company executives present were in an uproar.

The production cost of each film will cost [-] million U.S. dollars when apportioned!

Taller!

Everyone thinks so.

Some even thought it was too high.

If it is 5000 million, or 5000 million, everyone thinks it is acceptable.But a single movie has more than [-] million, which is beyond everyone's psychological expectations.

The production cost of the three movies is 30 million US dollars, and the estimated global box office is 3 billion. The return on investment is only [-], which is too low and too low.

Wu Long's movie, which time the return on investment does not exceed 4?

If the total global box office is predicted to exceed 36 billion, they can still accept it.That is the return on investment 4, which looks good on the report and earns more.

The production cost of 30 million, the box office of 21 billion, before deducting other costs, the income is 21 billion.The 2 billion, the eight major film companies plus Wu Long, divided into nine parts, each of which is only more than [-] million.The share of theater chains and independent theaters has to be deducted, and each one does not make much money.

Subdividing it further, each family only gets tens of millions of dollars.

This is far from the film income of the previous cooperation between Lion Films, Weiner Films and Wu Long.

I thought we would get together to share the cake, but after looking at it now, I found that the cake was too small and not delicious.

The eight major film companies, including Lion Films and Weiner Films, were dumbfounded and were thinking about how to deal with it.Whether to continue to talk about cooperation, or cooperation failure.

Lion Films and Weiner Films did not speak, and the executives of the other six major film companies couldn't sit still.

"Wu Long, your production cost is too high, the return on investment is only 3, and everyone has no money to make."

"Yes, Wu Long, can the production cost be lowered?"

"We didn't even show the script."

"You haven't participated yet."

The executives of these film companies began to bargain with Wu Long.

Scott was on the sidelines, helping Wu Long somehow.It was only today that he learned that the production cost given by Wu Long was 3 million US dollars per film, and the return on investment was only [-], which was really unacceptable.

He thought to himself, even if it actually cost [-] million dollars, there is no need to say it now.Get everyone's investment first, and when the time comes to overrun, these film companies have invested so much in the early stage, so they can only grit their teeth and invest again.

Such a situation is often encountered in Haolaihu.

Why doesn't Wu Long play such a trick?

Scott felt that although Wu Long had higher achievements than him, his experience in this area was still insufficient and he was too young.

"Wu Long, the production cost of 4 million US dollars per film is too high. The production cost of the second and third "Pirates of the Caribbean" is only more than [-] million and less than [-] million US dollars."

Faced with doubts, Wu Long had to answer.If he doesn't answer, it means he has a problem with his attitude.Others will also suspect that he deliberately increased production costs, not wanting so many film companies to jointly invest.

"What is the filming of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series? It is the sea. What is the sea? The sea is full of water. How difficult is the special effect of this water? What you asked for, fantasy battles on land, large-scale war scenes .A sea full of water, can it be compared with this?"

Wu Long's words refuted the other party's doubts.That's right, the Caribbean Sea is full of water, so it's really not difficult to create special effects for the water background?Bar?

"If you think it's high, you can make a film with a low production cost yourself. The big deal is that I will continue the fourth and fifth "Pirates of the Caribbean" series with Lion Films and Weiner Films. They have been urging me."

The implication is that if you didn't suddenly intervene, maybe I will continue to shoot the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series with Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures.Wu Long is trying to provoke Lion Pictures, Weiner Pictures and the other six major film companies.

"Then, why don't we co-produce the fourth and fifth parts of "Pirates of the Caribbean" first?" A film company executive said with greedy eyes.

The executives of Lion Films and Weiner Films looked at that guy and Wu Long.They both hated and hated the greed of these people, and were worried that Wu Long would give in.

"I'm sorry, when the contract for this series of films was first signed, there was an exclusion clause on it, and investment other than the original partner was not accepted."

Wu Long's words gave Lion Pictures and Weiner Pictures a reassurance.The two of them secretly made up their minds that they must stand on the same line with Wu Long and not allow Wu Long to share the cake.

Let Wu Long know that cooperating with these two film companies is more profitable than cooperating with other film companies.

"Wu Long, where is the script? We need to read the script before we can consider it. After all, the production cost exceeded expectations." Someone asked again.

Wu Long shook his head.

"The contract is not signed, you can't read the contract."

"Wu Long, what you are doing is against the rules. When we invest in filming, we must first read the script and make an evaluation." Someone immediately seized this point and attacked Wu Long.He didn't really want to attack Wu Long, he was just using a bargaining chip.

Wu Long shrugged.

"Sorry, that's always been my rule. If you don't believe me, ask Lion and Werner if they read the script before they signed the contract."

"Of course you don't need to read the script. You still need to read Brother Long's script? To read Brother Long's script is to distrust Brother Long. Since you don't trust Brother Long, why do you want to cooperate with Brother Long?" The senior management of Lion Films immediately helped Wu Long fought back.

The top executives of Weina Pictures even exposed their scars.

"If it wasn't for one time, the newly appointed guy didn't know that he had to read Brother Long's script. How could Lion Films have the opportunity to cooperate with Brother Long?"

The words of the two of them were full of irony towards the person who just said to read the script and the rules first.

Since you don't believe in Wu Long, don't cooperate with Wu Long.

The executives of Weina Films were even more incredulous, and said:

"Since some people feel that the production cost of US$[-] million is too high and they can withdraw, why force it? Weller Pictures thinks it is acceptable, so we vote."

The executives of Lion Films instantly understood the intentions of Weiner Films executives, and then said:

"If you think it's too risky to invest without reading the script, then quit, don't force it. You have to read the script first. We, Lion Pictures, never fail to read Brother Long's script. As long as Brother Long speaks, no matter what Whatever the production cost, we, Lion Pictures, will invest."

The executives of Weiner Films and Lion Films exchanged glances, satisfied that the other party could understand immediately.The two of them glanced at the other six major film companies, and there was inevitably a trace of joking and sarcasm in their eyes, as well as obvious contempt and provocation.

That look clearly said:

"If you are poor, don't participate, get out!"
