The Director of Music Department

Chapter 367: .Small projects make great achievements

According to Wang Yifan's idea, that is, the group company provides a mature project, invests in funds, and then finds a director to shoot, but in this case, what does it have to do with the new director?

In fact, there is a big customary rule in the Chinese film industry, that is, the initiator of a project is usually the director, not the film company.

The director has a fancy to a certain project, including new directors. Generally speaking, he develops a project himself and then invests.

Unless it is some adaptation of the script, otherwise, most projects come from this way.

Of course, the operation of this method for so many years has also proved that the existence of this method is effective.

Because before investing in any project, no one can actually guarantee that the project will be profitable. Investing in movies is inherently risky.

"In fact, I want to do some small projects, some low-cost projects, these projects can be initiated by our company or group company, and then call for directors, and those old directors may not appreciate these small projects. But the new director is fine."

"If we provide insurance for the new director's project, and let an old director control the final film, that is, the editing rights, then can we further reduce the risk?" Wang Yifan said.

Lin Husheng and Chen Hanming both disagree with Wang Yifan's idea.

The reason is very simple, that is, even if it is a project initiated by the company, can it ensure profitability? Well, in fact, any company, no matter how it invests in movies, is difficult to guarantee, but will this reduce the risk?

Think about it, it really will!

But here comes the question again. Where can the company find so many potential low-cost projects?

This is the same as a video website, which requires a sharp-eyed content officer to control it, but where can such a person look for it?

"I'm looking for the project!" Wang Yifan said with a smile.

Lin Husheng's eyes lit up immediately.

"Well, I will set up a new company and invest a sum of money, and the group can also invest a sum of money to operate this plan together. I will choose some short, fast and small cost projects to do, and the cost of each movie will also be Control within ten million." Wang Yifan thought for a while and said.

Wang Yifan was actually inspired by Chen Shaojun. The Chinese film circle in this world is not as restrictive as the previous life, so some relatively large-scale movies can be made.

But Wang Yifan has nothing else, but there are so many creative ideas in this area.

He only needs to give a story outline, then let the screenwriter team fill it, and then find a director to shoot according to the script.

Although this will limit the director's ability, it can ensure that the film will not deviate too much.

In fact, the market has proved that in China, small-cost feature films, comedies, horror films, and small-cost films in any category are promising. Chinese audiences really don't have that high demand for movies.

Therefore, in Wang Yifan's view, there is still much to do.

For example, low-cost horror movies, such as low-cost thrillers, and so on.

Then, Lin Husheng said on the spot that the group would invest 100 million yuan in this new production company, and Huaxin would be responsible for the distribution of all the films of this new company.

...

Yang Qin is a female director, but she is really not a newcomer. On the contrary, she has made a lot of movies, but it is a pity that they are all "horror movies" that sell dog meat.

No way, Yang Qin was not from a professional class. At the beginning, she was a photographer shooting print ads.

Later became a director.

Although it is said that the filming is not influential, the cost may only be hundreds of thousands, millions of "horror films", but Yang Qin still accumulated a lot of experience.

what? You said why those companies don't make some fine horror movies?

Boutique? Where are the boutiques so good to create, not only requires creativity, but also requires money.

In the eyes of Wang Yifan and Lin Husheng, an investment of less than ten million yuan is considered a small cost, and in fact it is.

However, in the eyes of many small companies, a film of less than one million is a small cost, because distribution also requires a sum of money.

And shooting that kind of bad film is actually a real short and fast project.

When Yang Qin was the fastest, he could make two movies a month. Although most of them were tours for a few days in theaters, they couldn't stand it up. People could really make money. Although they won't make much money, they made money.

If you go to the theater to see, there will be one or two, or even several thrillers, shown at midnight almost every day.

Because there is a market, so many shoddy horror films appear.

But Yang Qin also wants to enter the mainstream film circle. Yes, in the mainstream film circle, who knows who the director is for those low-cost movies that sell the dog meat?

However, Yang Qin has no way out, so according to her idea, she will accumulate a certain amount of funds, and then invest her own movies by herself.

At this moment, Yang Qin's agent suddenly came over excitedly.

Although Yang Qin's agent is not a big one, but in a small circle, he has a very wide network of contacts. Therefore, Yang Qin can keep receiving jobs.

"Here? What film is it this time?" Yang Qin seemed a little indifferent.

Ni Jie didn't care, either. Originally, those films were all simpler than the big online movies. Yang Qin was almost vomiting. What can I expect?

Yang Qin lacks money and does not lack money. The lack of money is because she wants to make her own real mainstream film. The lack of money means that although she is not a rich person, she still has a millionaire.

"Huaxin's big move! Are you interested?" Ni Jie said with a smile.

"What big move? What does it have to do with me? Moreover, I have been following the news recently. If Huaxin really has big moves, why didn't I see it?" Of course, Yang Qin knows Huaxin, but Huaxin's big moves are even mainstream with her. What does it matter to a small director who has not been in the film industry?

"This big move has not been officially announced. I also got the news from a friend inside Huaxin. Since I came here to tell you this news, naturally this matter has something to do with you." Ni Jie said.

"Moreover, I also hope that it has something to do with you!" Ni Jie added.

"Because of the lack of high-quality content, Huaxin and Wang Yifan will launch multiple projects at once. The key point is that although these projects may be low-cost movies, they will use new directors! This is your opportunity Ah, haven't you always wanted to make a real movie?" Ni Jie said seriously.

"Is the news true?" Yang Qin was no longer as calm as before, but suddenly stood up and said.

"It's true! Moreover, the small cost is only for Huaxin and Wang Yifan. In fact, no matter how small a project is, the investment is at least several million yuan. Such a project is not worthy of those who have already become famous. That’s why I said this is your opportunity. Of course, such an opportunity is very rare. Your competitors will not be less, but this time, your competitors will not have much advantage!"
