At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 168 The pattern should be bigger (44)

On the surface, the threshold for investing in TV dramas is very low. First, you don’t need to purchase fixed assets, and second, you don’t need to raise a professional team. You only need to find a good script, recruit a few big-name actors, and any crew can shoot it. You can sell it to a TV station and get it. money…

Yes, Gao Fenfen has a lot to do with the TV station...

so what?

Can you guarantee that no one will cheat her?
Coal bosses who are stupid and quick to make money turn around and enter the unfamiliar TV drama industry. There are too many tricks for them to eat a few pots...

Why is Gao Fenfen all right?
No one who knows how to be killed doesn't know how to die.

If you cheated of your money, they still have reason!
The famous director Chen Kexin once said, "Money is earned, not saved!" '

Therefore, a straw hat and a pair of cloth shoes are reimbursed thousands of dollars, and they even take this thing out to publicize...

This is technology and hard work!
"Do you know the average price of renting a camera? Do you know whether the camera should be HD or SD? What are the brands of HD, and what is the price of each?"

"Do you know where to buy costumes and props the cheapest?"

"Do you know how many snacks the crew has to provide in a day?"

Three questions in a row stunned Gao Fenfen, and Shen Xudong spread his hands: "You don't know anything, how can you invest in TV dramas?"

"So, we need a reliable producer..."

Shen Xudong asked again: "...do you know each other?"

"...I don't know each other, but you should know each other... Haven't you been with the team before?"

"I'm with the crew, not the production crew..."

After thinking for a while, he took out his mobile phone: "I'll call Chen Xi over and let her tell you!"

"Chen Xi? She seems to be on the crew of "Golden Branch Desire"..."

"I know, but she doesn't have many roles... She mainly works as a production assistant in the production team. She has more experience... Let her tell you."

While talking, Shen Xudong dialed Chen Xi's number, and then gave the phone to Gao Fenfen, asking them to talk directly...

……

In fact, Shen Xudong's worries are a bit unnecessary...

Gao Fenfen discussed with her father about doing something. Nowadays, it is not difficult for a high-quality TV series, TV station and audio-visual copyright to achieve an income of 30 yuan per episode, plus other profits. In terms of investment, It can easily achieve a profit rate of more than 50%.

Now is the bonus period.

In another two years, with the development of the Internet, piracy will become more and more rampant, and audio-visual copyright will be slightly equal to zero...

The TV drama bonus period has disappeared...

However, Gao Fenfen's father suggested focusing on modern urban dramas and casting a few popular stars.

Firstly, it is easy to place advertisements in urban drama series, and the return on advertisement placement is high enough to recover a large part of the cost

Secondly, there are too many costume dramas at this stage!

New types are needed to fill gaps in the market...

Of course, the most important thing is the quality of the series - at this stage, satellite TVs around the world are constantly competing in the direction of exclusive dramas, and several David TVs are asking for higher and higher prices for the premiere or first round of potential popular dramas.

At least at this stage, a good drama equals a good project!
It's not yet the era of rampant thunder...

Is there any reason for Shen Xudong to be worried?

Of course!
First of all, it is very terrible not to have your own production team. If you look for someone else, who can you turn to?

Those who are a little bit famous all have their own companies attached to them!
Second, there are no producers who can be trusted...

This is deadly!
The producer is in charge of the money, if you are a pure layman, you can really kill you!

The industry is opaque, except for photography and recording, it basically doesn’t cheat people, clothing, props, make-up, art... etc. can cheat money...

Chen Xi has been with "No. [-] in the World", and now he is working with "Golden Branch Desire", and he doesn't know much about the crew's method of extorting money - this crew is quite formal, but there is also the phenomenon of spending money randomly...

Therefore, her advice to Gao Fenfen is to blindly follow the joint production, learn a little bit, expand her network, and then think about doing dramas by herself.

……

"I didn't lie to you, the crew did have a lot of pitfalls!"

"...Okay, then I will first invest in the "Beauty's Scheming" and "The Sword" you mentioned... By the way, my dad also introduced two projects, one is "Plum Blossom File", and the other is Huang Lei's "Midnight" singing"…"

Shen Xudong nodded: "You can do whatever you want, but you must personally follow the group, learn and take a look..."

Gao Fenfen rolled his eyes at him: "I'm not a fool, I must personally follow the group..."

Shen Xudong picked up the coffee in front of him and drank it down: "Is there anything else? I'm leaving!"

Gao Fenfen immediately said: "The script!"

"What script?"

"Our own drama... Let me tell you, it must be an urban drama, more fashionable!"

"…what?"

Gao Fenfen explained: "My dad said that this kind of drama is easy to place ads on the one hand, and easy to operate on the other hand!"

“…Urban Chic…”

Shen Xudong pondered for a while, and then his eyes lit up: "How about we make an idol drama?"

"...The "Meteor Garden" kind? It's not easy to do, and campus romances are not allowed..."

"...Who said idol dramas have to be campus romances..."

"The Prince Turns into a Frog", "The Sheep-herding Star", "The Next Stop, Happiness", "Fated to Love You"...

Also inappropriate are "Why Shengxiaomo" and "It's too late to say I love you";
No matter how bad it is, it’s okay to copy a few Korean dramas!

Gong Hyo-jin liked several light romantic comedies, "It's Okay, It's Love", "I'm Going to See You Now", "The Best Love"...

And "Falling Into Innocence", "Need Romance"...

Really not, there is also "You Who Came from the Stars"...

No matter how bad it is, you can also take the funny route, for example, "Come on!Waikiki", "Very cheap, Maxima Supermarket! "It's all good…

The pattern needs to be large, who said that only domestic dramas can be copied?
"...Then I'll wait for you to write the script!"

"Well, you talk to the group first..." Speaking of this, Shen Xudong suddenly thought of something: "Is our company rich?"

"Yes, the later payment of "Three Kingdoms" has arrived...almost 700 million...do you want it now?"

"You can give it to me..." Shen Xudong said with difficulty: "...you can invest it..."

"Just wait for your words, I'll use them first... I also have an appointment, let's go first!"

Before Shen Xudong could speak, she walked away...

Isn't...my money...safe?

……

In fact, things like idol dramas depend on the era and social environment!
Your plot like "The Prince Turns into a Frog" is not suitable for happening in mainland China. The remake of "Love Woke Up" has a very different sense of substitution...

On the contrary, "Surrender to the Innocent Girl" and "Our Youth with Nowhere to Rest" are quite good...

If writing an idol drama, Shen Xudong will most likely choose "It's Okay, It's Love"...

It's just that Ji Hae-soo played by Gong Hyo-jin is hard to find a replacement...

Write it first, and then talk when you finish writing!
When I got home, I thought about it for a while, and then added "It's okay, it's love" and "Come on!Waikiki Two documents…

"Come on!Waikiki" is actually a sitcom, the main scene is at the homestay, and the plot mainly revolves around three men and one woman...

From the perspective of commercial return, it is more appropriate to do "Come on" first...

Damn, how did you think of commercial returns?
You are just a little writer now...

Write the script first...
