China Entertainment started from cutting off the Hu in 1995

Before Wu Yuchen could speak, Uncle He just said:

This is really an opportunity, but there is probably competition!

Another old comrade also spoke:

Young people must be brave and enterprising and not be afraid of competition! Xiao Wu, I think you can think about it carefully.

Wu Yuchen nodded. After hearing the news just now, he knew that there would be competition.

2 million to make 3-5 films, and he estimates that at least 1 million of them will be booked by Beijing Film Studio. There is no way, they are local snakes, and they cooperate with the movie channel, and they also helped in the establishment of the movie channel.

It is estimated that all he can fight for is the remaining 1 million, and it is not known how many parts this 1 million will be divided into.

At this time the old lady also smiled and said:

Xiao Wu, if you want to try it, you might as well bring this video to me first, and I will show it to others. But the most I can do is ask for you. This may not be possible. I will let you know if there is any news.伱.”

Wu Yuchen naturally understood that the purpose of showing people the tape was to prove his directorial ability. Otherwise, how could anyone believe in his ability as an unknown person to direct a movie?

Wu Yuchen closed his hands and said respectfully and sincerely to the old lady:

Teacher Ruan, I can't thank you enough for telling me this news and asking questions for me. No matter whether it succeeds or not, I will always remember your kindness in my heart! Thank you so much for this time!

Mrs. Ruan accepted the gift from him and then said with a smile:

I'm also curious about what kind of feature film you can make~

After being together for more than a month, she had a good impression of Wu Yuchen. Not only was he talented, but he was also very active in his work. He could still chat with old guys like them, unlike her grandchildren who would not say a few words. Impatient.

After watching Car 44 directed by Wu Yuchen just now, she was shocked. At the same time, she felt that such a talented young man should be trained more. She might as well match him and let him try it out. It depends on him. Can I get this opportunity myself?

On the way back from Prince Gong's Mansion, Wu Yuchen was still thinking about what happened today, and he was surprised one after another.

First, Tu Honggang gave him a big red envelope of 20,000 yuan, and then Mrs. Ruan passed him the opportunity to make a movie from the movie channel.

Wu Yuchen looked at the soles of his shoes, and there was no dog poop on them.

Then he shook his head and began to think about the opportunity of the movie channel.

To be honest, if the movie channel dared to give him all the 2 million, then he wouldn't mind giving the movie channel a surprise, one of the movie channel's most popular movies, Hands Up! 》.

The subject matter of this movie can definitely pass the censorship, there is no problem at all, and it is very popular among the people.

Many people may think that this movie didn't win any awards, and it didn't make much at the box office, but that doesn't stop people from really wanting to watch it!

There are a lot of laughs in the movie, and the bow-legged little devil like you, Uncle Pan, makes people want to laugh when they see it.

Put your hands up! 》has repeatedly won the movie channel's highest annual ratings. Without publicity and without support from urban mainstream theaters, it has ranked first in the number of screenings in rural theaters in China for 9 consecutive years, with a total of more than 1 million screenings in rural theaters. field!

Its significance to the movie channel is similar to that of Huanzhugege to Mango TV.

Many people complained that the movie was bad and made the little devil look like all kinds of mentally retarded. But Wu Yuchen just wanted to say something, let others film Escape from the Tiger's Mouth to make German soldiers look like low-IQ wine sacks and rice bags and then be called a classic. My Hands Up! 》The same routine makes it a bad movie? What a double standard!

However, it is impossible for the movie channel to give him 2 million, even if he sees Hands Up! 》The script is also impossible, so he no longer thinks about it.

As for Blind Shaft, Blind Mountain, Xiao Wu and other films made by sixth-generation directors, none of them can be considered. Once you submit the script, they will immediately kill it after reading it.

The movie channel is investing in you to make a film that can be watched by the general public on TV, not in making banned films.

Wu Yuchen's first criterion for selecting a film this time is naturally that it can pass the review, otherwise nothing will be mentioned. The second is the low cost, the kind that can be shot for 1 million or even 500,000.

At the same time, Wu Yuchen's personal pursuits must also be taken into consideration. When he makes this movie, he should not expect it to be released in domestic theaters first, because the investor's movie channel wants it to be broadcast on TV. So for Wu Yuchen, the only way this film can bring benefits is to earn money by winning awards at foreign film festivals.

In fact, when it comes to low-cost and high-return movies, the first thing that comes to Wu Yuchen's mind are the two science fiction movies that have been promoted to the sky by marketing trumpets, This Man Came from the Earth and The Night the Comet Came.

This Man Came from Earth cost more than 10,000 US dollars, and the box office was 300 million. 300 million ghosts, this movie was never released in theaters!

There is also The Night the Comet Came, which cost US$50,000 and was also touted to have a box office of over 100 million US dollars. In fact, the box office was only US$140,000.

Of course, Wu Yuchen does not deny the excellence of these two films, and they must have made a lot of money through DVD distribution and online revenue. If they are presented to science fiction film festivals, there should be film dealers who know the goods.

The small-cost films that really achieved super high returns at the box office were The Blair Witch Project and The Ghost Story. The shooting costs were 60,000 and 15,000 respectively, and the global box office exceeded US$200 million. However, the former relies on marketing, and the latter is a horror film, neither of which meets the requirements of Six Princesses.

Don’t worry about “This Man Is From Earth”. It’s a bit difficult to localize the story, and it might hit the mark.

The Night When the Comet Came can still be considered for a while. Maybe the Sixth Princess likes science fiction at this time? It can be used as a strange trick. If he gives him more than 100,000 yuan, he should be able to make this film.

After thinking about the strange move, you must also think about the positive move. The so-called positive move is that the content of the movie is very consistent with the main theme of positive energy, such as red themes, such as praising the true love of the world.

Wu Yuchen did not consider the red theme, as it would not sell abroad. Those that eulogize the true love of the world, such as The Mountain, That Man, That Dog starring Liu Ye, tell the story of the mutual understanding between father and son.

The Mountain, That Man, That Dog was so popular in Neon, with a cumulative box office of 800 million yen. Unfortunately, the producer sold the foreign rights for $60,000.

Wu Yuchen sighed when he thought of this, there is not enough money!

The original production of That Man, That Mountain, That Dog cost more than 2 million. The copyright of the novel is easy to negotiate, but the filming has to go to the mountains, so it will cost more than 1 million no matter what.

Most truly low-budget movies shoot scenes that are simple, but anything more complex will cost more.
