Su Meng pretended to be obedient and said.

Well, she knew that Zhang Qian had this reaction.

How much Su Meng will invest in has not yet been decided, but if they are all produced with the highest standards, the next film will really cost [-] to [-] million U.S. dollars.

As for why you have to invest so much?Very simple, increasing the difficulty of paying back.In this way, even if her movie is a small hit, it will be difficult to pay back.

"It's okay, I'm capable, four to five billion, the unit is still US dollars..."

At this time, Zhang Qian was really filled with emotions. It has only been a long time, and Su Meng has grown to such a point that he can independently start such a large production.

And he also had a premonition of the scale of this investment, Su Meng's ambition was bigger than he thought.I'm afraid I didn't think about how much money I would make, but I was thinking about impacting the myth of film history!After all, Su Meng is not short of money now.

"So, you should be thinking of finding someone to help you familiarize yourself with the filming process. You are going to be the conductor on the set yourself, right?"

Zhang Qian said.

If Su Meng was only looking for a director, she probably wouldn't ask him for someone. Lin Qian has a lot of resources on her side.But now that he is looking for someone, Su Meng is probably going to do it herself.However, because she is not familiar with the filming process, she needs someone with strong theoretical ability to guide her.

Those with super theoretical ability are actually not well-known big directors, but those students of the directing department who are just about to leave the university campus.

They have just finished their studies and have not yet joined the actual production of the film.For them, there is no way to figure out the difficulties they will encounter when actually making a movie, so they can only rely on theoretical memory on paper to help them adapt to reality faster.

Su Meng, who has participated in the production of two films, already has a good grasp of the reality, what is lacking is precisely this kind of theory.

Most importantly, he saw that Su Meng was building his own film and television team.Zheng Yihang's side is already on the right track, with the addition of the first and second box office films in the Chinese film industry, and he will not be short of filming in the future.

Under such circumstances, Su Meng decisively chose to let Zheng Yihang shoot the scenes he likes by himself, and started to train newcomers on his side.

"Well, if possible, help me find students who are in the editing, music and other messy positions. Then I also want to ask you to be the supervisor. Of course, I don't want you to directly intervene in the film production. I want you to help check it out."

Seeing this, Su Meng said.

This time, except for some key positions, Su Meng plans to start all newcomers in terms of directors!She doesn't believe that a film where most of the positions are students can still be successful?

Of course, just in case those students make some big mistakes and the movie is either completely unwatchable or never released.So it is still necessary to ask an experienced person to check.

In her eyes, Zhang Qian, who has studied big scenes and costume dramas all his life, is the best candidate.On Lin Qian's side, she can be fooled, and she doesn't know much about sci-fi movies, and she may even direct blindly.

Get it in one fell swoop!

Another layer of protection for the sudden death of the movie.

"Okay, I happen to have no play in hand."

After hearing Su Meng's words, Zhang Qian calmly reached out and wrote more than 20 names on a piece of paper, then looked up at a student in his office and said, "Go and call these people over for me."

"Ok."

The student took the paper very politely, glanced at it lightly, and then froze for a moment.

"Old Cousin Zhang, I love you!"

"Fuck you, be polite to me, or I will delete your name."

After watching the student collapse in front of him, and bursting out the mantra that he usually dare not say in front of him, he stretched out his foot and kicked the student's ass, telling him to call someone quickly.

After the student left, Zhang Qian looked at Su Meng again, and said, "Are you sure that all the newcomers will be used except for the supervisors and key positions?"

Zhang Qian is still a little worried about using newcomers in such a large-scale plan.

"Of course, if you're worried, then I'm asking my mother to put a leading master in it."

Seeing this, Su Meng said, she felt that her sudden death in this movie was basically stable!

ps: Qiongmei's cheongsam is a bit tight... I feel like I bought it too small...

Chapter 240 Five I Like You When You Are Not Confident (Fourth))

Although with Zhang Qian's help, it still took Su Meng more than half a month to set up the crew, and it was just a crew without actors.

The main members of this crew are students from Magic City Film Academy, Kyoto Film Academy, and Western Film Academy, as well as practitioners in the film and television industry who have graduated for a year or two and have been engaged in some film and TV series production.

In order to avoid accidents caused by unfamiliarity with the actual operation, Su Meng asked Lin Qian to help her contact some experienced film and television producers in various positions to be the supervisors to ensure that the film can be released.

After the formation of the basic team is completed, it comes to the stage of naming the film.

This movie was previously called "Code Name Galaxy" in Mitian, which represented Mitian's first interstellar sci-fi film, and also hinted that Mitian has a huge ambition like the Milky Way.

"We have a good name here, you can take a look."

After calling the main personnel of the film crew, Zhu Zimo sorted out his own thoughts on naming the movie.

"Uncle Zhang, do you have any comments?"

As the person with the highest qualifications present, Su Meng felt that she had to refer to Zhang Qian's opinion.

As for why you are so good?It's very simple, Zhang Qian doesn't understand sci-fi, and Su Meng called Zhang Qian here just to let him command blindly.

"This is a matter for you young people, don't ask me."

Seeing this, Zhang Qian said that he was still a little self-aware.He is good at costume dramas, but he is really not good at science fiction movies.

"alright."

Su Meng was a little helpless after hearing this sentence. Does an old guy like Zhang Qian like to order blindly?

"I think "Code Name Galaxy" is good. The story of our movie takes place in the Milky Way, and it is a battle between two major forces in the Milky Way. The most important thing is, don't you think the name is handsome enough?"

Sitting next to Zhang Qian, a chubby man who seemed a little dumbfounded said.

He was Cheng Shou, the assistant director who was pushed by Zhang Qian to guide some theoretical foundations in the filming process of Su Meng. Although he has more than 200, his nickname is Slim.

"Okay, then "Code Name Galaxy"."

After Su Meng heard Cheng Shou's words, she directly threw back the plan that Zhu Zimo handed over.

Is it a cool name?Yes, but there are more handsome names in the plan that Zhu Zimo handed over.Su Meng suffered from difficulty in choosing.

Under such circumstances, she needed someone like Cheng Shou who didn't read the planning book, but just said it directly when he heard "Code Name Galaxy" and felt it could be used.

After all, when the movie is questioned because the name does not match the movie itself, she can decisively throw the blame away.

"emmmmm..."

Zhu Zimo froze for a moment after hearing Su Meng's words. Originally, he thought that this meeting would last for a long time.But now... more than 2 minutes?It takes more than this time to call people before the meeting!

"Well, then don't change it, it will be called "Code Name Galaxy". Now we must determine the funds used for shooting. At present, I have given three levels of special effects costs. Take a look."

Zhu Zimo said and handed another plan to Su Meng, and also sent the rest to others.As for why not refute?Because Su Meng is now the chief director, sole investor and lead actor.

To refute Su Meng?He still wants to continue eating this meal.

The special effects budget compiled by Zhu Zimo for "Code Name Galaxy" has three grades, the first grade is [-] million.Due to the difference in film shooting and the degree of application of special effects, this level will be a level lower than that of "Battle of Wisdom and Internet" in terms of special effects.After all, there are not as many special effects applications in "Battle of the Wisdom and Internet" as imagined, and money can be concentrated on a small number of special effects to reach the world's top-tier level.

"This special effect looks so fake."

Zhu Zimo originally wanted to introduce more special effects of this level, after all, many large-scale foreign films only invested in this.But before he said much, Su Meng vetoed it.

"The cost of the second tier is 17 billion to 19 billion. This is the world's top special effects, all of which we choose the best. Because it is still unclear what level of special effects will be displayed at that time, so there is no way to confirm that it is 17 billion. Still more. But probably no more than 19 billion.”

When Zhu Zimo said this, he was a little bit embarrassed, after all, he had already seen the team.The film and television industry's behind-the-scenes production masters invited are all in the supervisory position, and the students who are working are all students.

He was really not sure about choosing such a large investment in a crew full of students.He even regretted why he didn't keep the plan of [-] million grades at that time.

"Didn't you say there are three gears?"

The second gear that Zhu Zimo said seemed to be satisfactory to her, but Su Meng did the math, what if this movie became a hit?After all, when she was talking to Lin Qian, Lin Qian couldn't help but directly said that it would be released globally.With this level of investment and a global release, as long as it is a small hit, it can pay back.

And what she wants is not just a bad movie, but also a bad blood mother who doesn't know her.

"The third grade is 24 billion. The extra cost here is for rendering and rendering acceleration, which is used to increase the production speed of special effects."

Zhu Zimo said with some hesitation.

According to his imagination, the second gear is actually the limit, and he really dare not imagine anything higher.

After all, unless an investment of that level is famous in film history, it will lose too much.He has ambition, but his ambition is not enough to support him to dream of higher investment.

"I just like how unconfident you are."

Su Meng nodded after seeing Zhu Zimo's hesitant face.She knew that this plan was probably the upper limit of Zhu Zimo's ability.

And what about adding more pressure to someone who is already at the limit of his abilities?He'll break down from the high pressure and end up screwing things up!

so...

"You make a new budget estimate. I'll hire someone. If your estimated price for special effects is less than this amount, you don't need to come to me."

Su Meng wrote a five on the planning paper in front of her as she spoke, and then drew a dollar unit and threw it to Zhu Zimo.

She planned to put enormous pressure on Zhu Zimo.As for Zhuzimo's future?There is no need to worry at all, anyway, Su Meng has money and contacts now.This movie failed, so she paid for Zhu Zimo to shoot the movie, and made as much as she lost, until Zhu Zimo became a top-tier domestic leader.

As for Zhuzimo?He was stunned. Although Su Meng didn't write [-] million, he still knew that Su Meng meant [-] million US dollars!

This scale of investment...has overturned his imagination.

ps: I failed to evolve into Wugeng Liuli today, I want to sort out the follow-up

Chapter 240 Six This is Su Meng's trust in them!

"Su Meng... just left like this?"

After explaining that the investment was at least [-] million US dollars, Su Meng left, which surprised a series of film school students present.For some reason, they always felt that Su Meng didn't seem to care much about the success of this movie.

"This is normal. Zimo participated in the production and plot design of "Battle of Wisdom and Internet". Su Meng also has a very deep understanding of him, and believes in his plot design ability and plot understanding, so I will leave it to Zimo." conduct."

Seeing this, Zhang Qian explained.

Zheng Yihang is the main planner of "Battle of Wisdom and Internet", the No. [-] box office movie in the Chinese film industry.Although Zhang Qian did not participate, it can also be seen that the success of "Su Daji, the Demon Fox of Disaster", gave Su Meng the capital to believe in Zheng Yihang.At the same time, this is also a kind of training for Zheng Yihang.With only two films, Zheng Yihang has changed from a frustrated film director to a top domestic director.

Now that Zheng Yihang is on the right track, this film is not only for building his own film team, but also for cultivating Zhu Zimo.Although the film crew is young, or even young, according to Su Meng's attitude, the actors employed this time are very likely to be luxurious and messy, which is also a confirmation of his guess.

Survival of the fittest, if the group of students he brought this time can use what they have learned, he has a hunch that they may become the top film production team in China or even in the world in the future!

Of course, the premise is that they must be worthy of Su Meng's trust.

"Zimo, what are your thoughts now?"
