I’ve said it all, don’t let post-00s take over the official account

Chapter 204: Su Chen’s investment in new film breaks new high? !Go rob a bank
After hearing about the 20 billion investment, the experts and professors at the Longguo History Research Institute felt bad.

They just wanted to shoot a promotional film first, and they never thought they would need so much money.

Even when Dean Shi initially prepared [-] million in funding, they thought Dean Shi was crazy.

Five hundred million, that’s five hundred million!
If this money is invested in restoring cultural relics, I don’t know how many cultural relics can be restored to their splendor.

But now, the remake of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" actually costs 20 billion.

Even if these experts and professors are not from the film and television industry, they know that this is a business destined to lose money.

Indeed, they were right.

You know, if the ratings of "In the Name of the People" exceed 50%, it is already the ceiling for today's TV dramas.

Even if the remake of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is successful, the numbers that can be achieved will only be so high, and the benefits will only be so much.

How much money did "In the Name of the People" make?

Indeed a lot.

The second broadcast rights alone were auctioned for two to three billion. Adding in the rest of the income, it would be up to two billion anyway.

But the problem is that not all of these benefits belong to investors.

Taxes, production company shares, broadcast platform commissions...

Once those miscellaneous expenses are gone, there will not be much profit left for them.

There is no way, this is the upper limit of the TV series' income.

After all, no matter how popular a TV series is, it can only be broadcast on TV stations and TV platforms, and the remaining income is very little.

But movies are different. Audiences need to buy tickets to watch.

The price of a movie ticket is at least 50 yuan. If you want to make more money, you can set the price of the ticket higher.

Anyway, Su Chen's movies never lack audiences.

Even if he sets the ticket price to more than [-], many movie fans will bite the bullet and buy the movie tickets in order to see high-quality works.

Movies, TV series...

Everyone knows that movies can make a lot of money, but if "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a remake, it must be presented in a TV series.

After all, the story of the Three Kingdoms is really too big.

If you are making a movie, it is enough to choose one or two classic stories and remake them.

But since then, things have been putting the cart before the horse.

In general, if the investment amount of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" requires [-] billion, then the Longguo History Research Institute will never be able to recover the cost.

Losing money is still a trivial matter, if it is the same as the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that was suppressed before...

Not only would the Longguo Historical Research Institute lose its money, but it would also lose its face.

Looking at a room full of gloomy old men, Su Chen always had a faint smile on his face.

"Dean Shi, your estimate is biased."

As soon as Dean Shi heard Su Chen's words, he immediately became energetic.

Deviation?
Could it be that a great director like Su Chen can't afford such a high investment.

"Director Su, how much filming funding do you think we need?"

Just because of the funding issue, Dean Shi is like a tightrope walker.

Xiao Su stopped shouting and directly called Su Chen Director Su, and also used the honorific title 'you'.

Su Chen didn't show off, but directly stretched out five fingers.

Seeing this, Dean Shi knew what was going on.Five fingers, that’s [-] million.

After all, 5000 million is too little and does not fit with Su Chen's style of filming funding.

And five billion...

This is simply an astronomical figure, and it is impossible.

Thinking of this, Dean Shi gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Five hundred million, right? Then our Dragon Kingdom Research Institute can still come up with it."

"No, it's five billion."

When Dean Shi heard this number, he was stunned.

Not only him, but also the experts and professors behind him were shocked.

Five billion? ? ?

When this astronomical figure appeared, everyone felt that they were hallucinating, or that Su Chen was joking with them.

But Su Chen was not joking with them, but was serious.

"Dean Shi, five billion is just my prediction. It is very likely that five billion is not enough."

Boom.

These experts and professors felt as if something had exploded in their heads.

Five billion is not enough? !

What kind of concept is this? ? ?

It is true that the Dragon Kingdom Historical Research Institute is one of the richest departments in the Dragon Kingdom.

After all, any cultural relic inside is worth thousands of gold.

But the problem is that those cultural relics are state-owned, they are only protecting them, and they don't have any real money in their hands.

Five billion, even if we sell them, we still can't get it out.

The corners of Dean Shi's mouth trembled slightly, and he pretended to be relaxed and said: "This five billion...isn't it a bit too exaggerated?"

Su Chen shook his head and said seriously.

"Dean Shi, since I am going to remake "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", then I will definitely make the best TV series in the Dragon Kingdom and let the world see this film. This will be an epic TV series, and a single episode The production cost is at least 3000 million per episode."

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is very long. If I take a hundred episodes and calculate it, it will require at least [-] billion in production funds. In addition to the [-] billion, I need to create an unprecedented Three Kingdoms historical film and television City. Tourists can go in and visit, and film and television teams can also shoot."

“In this way, we can not only have an epic blockbuster, but we can also raise funds by buying tickets and renting out shooting locations...”

Su Chen smiled and said his plan, but those at the Longguo Historical Research Institute were completely uninterested.

They admitted that Su Chen had a good idea, and they also wanted to own an epic blockbuster and a film and television city with the history of the Three Kingdoms.

But the problem is - money.

The ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny.

Their Longguo Historical Research Institute was able to come up with [-] million in funding, but it had already been collected by selling iron and steel.

Su Chen opened his mouth to ask for five billion, what is the difference between this and taking their lives?
However, Su Chen said that five billion might not be enough.

How does this play?
This is completely unplayable!
Make a damn movie, make a movie!
Su Chen also noticed the ugly expressions on the faces of experts and professors from the Longguo History Research Institute.

Su Chen is not a person who doesn't like the fireworks of the world. He knows that five billion is a large amount of money, and it will definitely not be possible to come up with it just by relying on the Longguo History Research Institute.

In the future, investors will definitely need to be recruited.

Su Chen pursed his lips and asked straight to the point: "Dean Shi, please tell me how much money your Longguo History Research Institute can afford."
