Chapter 7 Rest!

Before entering the industry, Shen Santong had fantasies of being an amateur.

After entering this industry, I found that it was even worse than working in engineering.

Ordinary people working on the project can still have a sip of soup or even a bite of meat.

In the past 2000 or so, foreign capital had not yet entered the film industry on a large scale.

Resources are highly concentrated, and those who suffer from drought will die from drought, and those who suffer from floods will die from floods.

There is a master's student in the class of 02 at Beijing Film Academy, Bi Zhifei, Teacher Bi, who was able to get funds to make his own film.

Shen Santong's family has some connections in TV drama production, but they have no connections in movies, so he can only go the traditional route.

Short films, medium and long films, TV movies, film films, cinema films.

Step by step.

As a highly post-production profession, being able to have a movie released in theaters at the age of 30, a movie that loses a lot of money, is already the level of a red rabbit among horses and a dragon among men.

Begging for help, pretending to be a grandson, you have to go through this life again after going through it in your previous life, so isn't it a waste of rebirth?

If you are short of money, then make money and promote yourself.

The 02 World Cup was quite famous, but we had no channels and no capital.

If ordinary people really want to make a name for themselves, traditional methods will definitely not work.

After all considerations, online serialization is the best method, breaking the monopoly of traditional channels.

It just so happened that I loved reading online novels in my previous life, so I read one based on the format of “Fights Break Sphere”.

His writing style is not as good as Tu Dou's, but in 04, he was also a pioneer and created a new genre.

It became popular immediately and was then published.

Seven books have been published and the eighth is about to be published. The copyright has been sold to Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The income from physical book copyrights is only part of it. He also authorized online copyrights and made a lot of money from all these.

"The script is really good. There's a supermarket scene that's a bit like 'The Gas Station Attack'. Is it digital or film?"

After reading the script, Ning Hao gave it a thumbs up.

The script had a complete structure, which gave him some inspiration.

The group moved to Shen Santong's home, a house he bought near the school.

An old professor passed away. His son was working abroad and did not come back, so he entrusted his house to an agent to sell it.

He just happened to buy a room full of books, as well as many diaries and photos of the old professor and his wife.

He contacted his son and asked him to mail it to him.

It is such a precious memory, which also records how the old professor and his wife fell in love.

The love of the older generation is pure and simple, and it would be a pity to lose it.

Unexpectedly, the other party replied, "It's up to you to handle it," and hung up the phone.

"Film and digital movies have very poor quality and lack post-production. My scene is simple and the set design cost will be low, so I can recover some of it." Shen Santong said.

Digital movies in Hollywood can already produce very good textures.

But we need a good post-production team, which is not available in China.

“Film isn’t cheap.”

Ning Hao was envious. He had a movie on hand and was short of money. He also wanted to play with film. A roll of film could shoot four minutes and cost about 1,200 to 1,300 yuan.

A movie is 90 minutes long, but the shots taken take more than a hundred minutes, plus reshoots and other costs.

It would be considered good if you could finish shooting 100 reels of film, which would cost more than 100,000 yuan.

And this is just the cost of film. Film movies are expensive in all aspects.

The rental of cameras, film storage, and post-production processing would cost millions combined.

"So the actors' salaries can't be too high, and we also have to do a good job of storyboarding and rehearsing to save as much production cost as possible."

Shen Santong had considered this a long time ago, and he had been preparing for this project for more than a year.

"Who are you going to cast?" Xing Aina was a screenwriter, so after reading the script, she had an idea in mind.

This drama is really good and has potential to be sold. She actually hopes that Ning Hao will make this type of movie.

"He Sanshui found Xu Zheng, the tire found Wang Baoqiang, the one in "Blind Well", Zhu Liao found Huang Bo, who was in the dubbing class and acted in "Get in the Car, Let's Go". The supermarket owner found Yan Ni, and the robber found Sun Honglei,"

The movie he is going to make is "Night Club" from his previous life.

After his magical modifications, there were some changes and the handling of the scenes became more reasonable.

"Xu Zheng has been famous for a long time, and Sun Honglei became extremely popular after his movie Conquer. They are not cheap either. It would cost more than 100,000 yuan to hire these two people. And that's not counting Li Junwei and Tang Xiaolian."

Ning Hao did the math.

Yan Ni is easy to deal with, and Wang Baoqiang seems to have signed a contract with Huayi and starred in a small cannon movie, but it is not expensive at the moment.

"Don't Xu Zheng and Sun Honglei want to transform? There are very few film projects in the mainland, and even fewer commercial films. They should cut their salaries."

Xu Guangtou is sure about it, but Sun Honglei may not be so sure.

Try it, if it doesn't work find someone else.

Shen Santong continued, "I'll take care of Li Junwei. As for Tang Xiaolian, you need to look for her carefully. I want to find a girl with dimples to help with the marketing in the later stages."

Li Junwei is just a vase, so Shen Santong can naturally play the role.

The hardware of Rebirth has been strengthened in all aspects, so you can eat your own cake and save money at the same time.

The casting of Tang Xiaolian is to cooperate with the marketing.

Among the people making movies in mainland China now, apart from Xiao Gangpao and Zhang Weiping, there are very few who understand marketing and have a conscious awareness of marketing.

Their marketing methods are also very crude, firing guns.

Shen Santong has a relatively complete marketing plan, and it may end up making more money than the movie.

"Then let's do the character script first, get the storyboards ready, and you can finalize the actors' schedules?"

Xing Aina and Ning Hao signed the contract.

It was registered under the name of Locomotive Film Studio and entered into this project.

The Locomotive Film Studio has its own office location. Last year, the house prices in BJ dropped for some reasons.

Shen Santong bought an office building on the first floor of the Second Ring Road at a bargain price and bought it with a loan.

"Heroine, am I not capable of this?" Jiang Yiyan looked at Shen Santong angrily.

Ning Hao and his wife went to the studio first and saw that Jiang Yiyan was not very happy.

Didn’t you see that there’s an actress here? She’s also read the script.

Tang Xiaolian is the heroine, and she also wants to be the heroine!

"I want one with dimples, and you don't have them."

With an investment of two million, you can buy several houses at the current housing prices in BJ, and in the future it will be tens of millions. I’m not kidding.

"I want to, do, mistress."

Jiang Yiyan said, "You want to have a third one, right? I'll be the heroine, today."

"Please take the initiative, no, respect yourself!"

Shen Santong refused.

for a long time.

Jiang Yiyan wiped the ice cream from the corner of her mouth and wanted to make a sneak attack to share.

Fortunately, Shen Santong hid quickly.

It was almost like something unspeakable happened, it was too brutal.

On August 2004, 8, after a month of preparation, the actors' schedules were arranged and rehearsals began.

In the film era, film was more expensive than actors.
