How did I become a god

Chapter 903 Various Reasons
Jing Gao listened attentively, and Feng Wan, who was wearing black stockings, came over to refill him a cup of tea.Jing Gao smiled and nodded his thanks to the gentle and quiet beautiful young woman, took a sip from the teacup, and said, "Teacher Wang, continue."

Wang Wenhan is well-informed and well-informed. Boss Jing is just a beautiful assistant pouring tea. Back then, he and the coal boss talked about projects in Xijiao City. Once, the coal boss put his arms around a lady and said to him: "Our drama must We must promote positive energy."Reality is so full of magicism.

Wang Wenhan said with a smile: "This change in the production system is limited partner (LP) + general partner (GP) production system.

We all know that the filmmaking process is becoming more and more industrialized.Every process will have a lot of competition.Everyone just wants to complete their own process, take the money and leave.How to ensure the interests of investors, or how to avoid risks for investors?

For example, if a big star wants a high salary, he will take the money and leave after the movie is finished.How to ensure the video quality?
The partner production system, in terms of expression, has several parts from the preparatory period, production period, post-production, and production management.Generally speaking, it is to establish a production team with the producer as the core and other people as the assistants. After selecting the script, finding a director, selecting actors to form a team, starting filming, and finally getting a report.

The core of the partner production system is that most of the people in the process must be deeply bound to the film project.Including the producer himself must also sign the project equity agreement.Therefore, earning more and earning less is closely related to the movie, and it is not the investor who loses money alone.

Therefore, under this system, we can clearly see that the leading power of the project has returned to the hands of the producer.But he does not hold absolute power in the crew, but needs to compete with the director, top stars and even the distribution company, that is, with all stakeholders of the entire project, before things can be implemented.

Speaking of this, I think Mr. Jing, you should understand what I want to say about the system flaws of Phoenix Film and Television? "

Jing Gao smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, Mr. Wang. You mean that the Phoenix Group is currently adopting the system of producer + director + star, which is actually a system that has been eliminated in Hollywood.

More importantly, in the actual operation process, due to the domestic production environment, Phoenix Film and Television cannot launch financial products to absorb financing, and bind the entire film project with producers, directors, stars and other production staff.

On the contrary, because of the imitation of the Hollywood system, the power of the producers has increased, and the operation tends to be more like the earliest producer system in Hollywood.

The reasons why Fenghuang Film and Television can be the number one at present are: First, the domestic anti-monopoly law is not yet mature.Phoenix Film and Television actually controls the distribution department, and even controls a large domestic theater chain, so there is the kind of prosperity at the beginning of the last century!

Second, there are many bad movies in China.Competition is not strong enough.This pure producer model can win in the market competition. "

Wang Wenhan smiled half flatteringly and said, "Mr. Jing, you have a very good understanding of the operation of the film and television industry! Most of the bosses in the circle don't have your vision."

"Haha!" Jing Gao couldn't help laughing, "Teacher Wang, I take this as a compliment."

Wang Wenhan also laughed.Mr. Jing has a keen mind, and his Lingtai is clear!
In fact, there are discussions in the industry on how to limit the high remuneration of stars.The most feasible way is the Hollywood model, do not give too high a salary, but make up for it with the share of the movie box office or the share of the TV series.

However, this method is difficult to operate!

From the perspective of directors and stars, who is willing to accept such harsh conditions?There are easier ways to make money why not choose?
From a capital point of view, the high salary paid to the stars is still profitable.So who would do sinners?

Of course, this way of making money is not through movie box office, but through financial means in the stock market, cutting leeks from fans through traffic stars, etc.

There are two more reasons here.First, the domestic film market ranks second in the world, second only to the North American film market, and will soon become the world's first.As a result, there are still a lot of bonuses to eat in the entertainment circle.

The market and the supply of stars are out of balance.Although there are many domestic stars, compared to the huge consumer market and capital supply, this is still insufficient.

Second, entertainment stars naturally demand high pay.This is difficult for people outside the industry to understand.This is related to domestic traditions.Because many stars can only be called stars, not actors, let alone people's artists.So, the audience, who will let you get a high salary?I can't scold you to death!
But the objective facts are here, the huge market is here, and the stars have huge commercial value.Capital is not an idiot, it will do business at a loss.Comparable to the film market in North America, think about how much money superstars in North America can get under the salary + sharing system?

The top-level remuneration of US$2000 million is close to 1.4 million in conversion.This salary is in China, and the capital would definitely dare to give it to a big star, but after it is exposed, it will definitely be scolded to death.

Therefore, the "salary restriction order" and "registration restriction order" currently being discussed in the industry are aimed at reducing the high remuneration of top stars: the remuneration must not exceed 40% of the entire play.But as soon as he guessed it, there was another round of scolding.

Because the energy of the head star cannot be restrained by laws and regulations.They even dare to evade taxes, and they still care about your relevant department making a broken regulation?The real unlucky ones will be the young actors under the salary limit order.

Other spending is bound to be squeezed.

...

Jing Gao tapped the armrest of the wooden chair lightly with his fingers, and said, "Mr. Wang, even if I see the plight of Phoenix Film and Television's production model, it seems that I can't change anything at the moment. The domestic film and television environment is like this. Do you have any suggestions for Teacher Wang?" ?”

This is actually a half-truth.

Things in the world are often half a step ahead is a genius, one step ahead is a madman.The same is true in business.For example, an industry that has been very popular in recent years has been hailed as the next outlet for capital: electric vehicles.So, where is LeEco, which was so powerful in domestic car manufacturing back then?
It's too early to enter this industry!

Therefore, at present, Phoenix Film and Television still has scale advantages, competitive advantages, and profitability.In fact, he didn't want to urgently adjust the production mode in his heart.

Of course, you must have a foresight to look at the problem.Therefore, he still has to think about the transformation of Phoenix Film and Television.Therefore, he consulted Wang Wenhan, an expert in the industry.

Wang Wenhan said: "Mr. Jing, there are many high-quality movies in Hollywood, and there are also many businesses that lose money. So, you just asked me how to produce more high-quality film and television dramas. It is really difficult for me to answer this question. This is what the entire film and television industry must Questions to answer: How to make a good drama?
What are you shouting for?I'm a screenwriter.There are many factors for successful movies and TV series.But there must be one reason for the failure, the script is not good.I hope that Phoenix Films will pay more attention to screenwriters under the current production mode! "

Jing Gao nodded and ordered: "Shaofan, make a note. Go back and organize a meeting to study how to improve the scriptwriter's voice in the entire project. You can invite Mr. Wang to attend, or serve as a guidance consultant."

Damn it!Wang Wenhan felt his heart beat a little faster.What is a big brother, this is called a big brother!

A simple sentence, an understatement and a casual order, will bring about drastic changes to him as a screenwriter, and to the ecology of the entire industry!

As the number one leading company in the domestic film and television industry, Phoenix Film and Television is reported to have been valued at as high as 800 billion in the A-share listing guidance.If he can make Phoenix Film and Television respect screenwriters and scripts in the actual production, it will definitely improve the status of screenwriters, and then he has done a good and big thing for the entire industry!
This is actually what he has always wanted to do!The status of Chinese screenwriters is too low.Just like the joke he just said about opening a script meeting on a certain platform, anyone dared to come up and give pointers, but there is a threshold for screenwriters!

What threshold?
Every line written by the screenwriter must be able to be filmed.

For example: Zhang San and his wife have not spoken for ten years.This description is not called a script.It couldn't be photographed.How should it be written?
In the morning, Zhang San got up and poured water for tea, but the water bottle was empty.He shook it.His wife Li Si came in from the door, glanced at him, and went out again with a washbasin towel.Zhang San put the cup in his hand on the table.

This meaning is expressed.

That's called a script.
