Chapter 877: I made money even before filming started

Views:

Huajing is the center of the entire country.

The center of many industries encountered is also here.

In Shen Huan's impression, even when the Internet and electronics were at their most developed in the previous life, Huajing's status as a Zhengzhi cultural and entertainment center had never changed.

Some of the best actors and the most famous stars in the country are all in Huajing.

They're not stupid.

Of course, it’s because we have the best resources and the best platform here that we gather here.

To make a movie or TV series, you can be sure to find all the talents you need in Huajing.

We can't talk about Hengdian, which is just a very low-level actor and scene configuration base.

Among the real actors and stars who lived in Huajing, one person is worth all of them.

It's a bit cruel to say, but that's the truth.

Just like Dad Ma and I, on average we are among the top ten super-rich people in China, but that doesn't change the fact that I am poor.

In Huajing, new crews are formed every month.

To put it even more exaggeratedly, on average a crew is formed every week.

These crews range from big to small, some have a strong impact as soon as they start filming, and some remain unknown until the filming is completed.

"The Gift of Room No. 7" has not yet been launched, and all entertainment media pages are a model of their news.

The "Gift from Room No. 7" mentioned here refers to the TV series version.

Shen Huan did not take action himself. Xin Changkong found several famous screenwriters and turned the novel into a 30-episode TV series script. Shen Huan asked Teacher Chu Liuxiang to review and correct it before it was finally finalized.

"The Gift of Room No. 7" is a TV series produced by Fengxiang Film and Television, and it rejected investment requests from all companies.

It's not that Fengxiang Film and Television has a lot of money, but it doesn't cost much at all to make "The Gift from Room No. 7".

According to the popularity and classic of "The Gift of Room 7", a group of people in the TV industry are willing to act for free. This is a masterpiece that will make them famous in history!

But Shen Huan still refused. According to his previous agreement, he tried his best to choose the three groups of drama actors for "The Gift of Room No. 7" in Beijing dialect.

They have worked hard to perform "The Gift of Room No. 7" in the drama theater for two years, and it is time to give them some rewards!

It is no longer possible to wait for the big screen, but the small screen is still a very good platform for them.

Drama actors have appeared more and more in various TV series and movies in the past two years.

The most famous representatives are Fengxiang Film and Television's "Huan Zhuge Ge" and "Yue Yu" series, which use a large number of drama actors.

As a result, people's eyes lit up as soon as their performance came out.

Whether he is a good actor or not, you don't need to look at his reputation at all, just ask him to act in a scene.

Of course, the audience can see the actors' performances in the play at a glance.

A group of drama actors really played the role of super green leaves in these two dramas.

In "Huan Zhuge Ge" they made the Chinese people laugh.

In "Prison", countless European, American, Japanese and Korean fans are crazily calling their acting skills.

It is precisely because of their outstanding performances that many production crews who want to find acting talents now go to the theater to hire some.

Not only Beijing Dialect, Shanghai Dialect, but also local drama troupes, excellent actors have many opportunities to star in TV series. This is thanks to Shen Huan's start.

Otherwise, in the past, only the top group of drama greats could star in movies and TV shows.

Moreover, the prices for actors in other theaters are very low.

For example, Mr. Xu Gu, played by Jackie Chan in the Chinese-speaking drama version of "The Gift from Room No. 7", is a pillar of Beijing dialect.

The protagonists who star in a TV series usually only earn 100,000 per episode, which is the same as that of second-rate TV stars, and even worse than the six major TV series stars.

This time he accepted "The Gift of Room No. 7", and he only offered an unusual price of 100,000 per episode. A TV series only costs 3 million, which is less than one-tenth of what Shen Huan paid for filming "Young Di Renjie" Remuneration.

As for other drama actors, you can hire them for 10,000 per episode or 20,000 per episode. They are cheap and easy to use.

You think those investors who produce TV series and movies, after discovering such a treasure, can’t they rush to use it

When Xin Changkong showed Shen Huan the production cost of "The Gift of Room No. 7" for review, Shen Huan was a little surprised.

"The total cost of the main actors is only 10 million? Is it too little?" the young man asked.

"Actually, it's quite a lot." Xin Changkong said with a smile: "Teacher Xu only received 3 million, and Li Wei, the actor who plays Xiao Yiyuan, and her mother only received 1 million. The other supporting actors received even less. The average talent cost is about 500,000. Of course, supporting actors and extras are not included."

"The child's mother is not bad, not greedy." Shen Huan nodded.

"It's not like there are greedy people. Zhang Shihan's mother wanted 3 million... but Li Wei's mother found out about it from somewhere and directly offered me 1 million." Xin Changkong said, "Both of them are equally excellent. Of course I will choose the cheaper one!”

Shen Huan smiled brightly.

Zhang Shihan's mother is not smart at all.

You get a cheaper salary for the TV series. When the TV series starts airing and triggers a huge response, do you still worry about advertisers not coming to you in droves

Will it be less than 1,000 and 8 million by then

Don't worry about it now.

It turned out well, the roles were all snatched up.

"As for the director, I made contact with Director Hu Zhenshu and he was very interested." Xin Changkong said, "But his requirement is that he must have an overall grasp of the film and no one can interfere during filming."

Shen Huan nodded slightly.

Director Hu Zhenshu is a first-rate director in the television industry. He specializes in ethics dramas. Several of his films were among the top ten in terms of ratings that year.

"Those who are incompetent will compromise everywhere." Shen Huan thought for a while, "Ask him to come over with a shooting plan! If Teacher Chu and I think it is okay, he can form a team!"

"good!"

Xin Changkong nodded.

He didn't tell Shen Huan that Hu Zhenshu wanted a director's salary of 5 million.

This small sum of money is nothing compared to the TV series version of "The Gift from Room 7".

After the news was released in September, several satellite TV stations have approached us and offered good conditions. None of them paid less than 60 million for the exclusive broadcast rights in the first round.

They all know that "The Gift of Room No. 7" only has 30 episodes, but it still offers a price of more than 2 million for a single episode.

At the time, the ratings hegemon "Huan Zhuge Ge" only had 30 million first-round broadcast rights for 24 episodes.

Of course, no one knew whether "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was good or bad before it was aired.

And "The Gift of Room No. 7" is already a national-level IP, and its TV series can guarantee a super-high ratings of at least 20% even if it is the worst TV series.

Of course the satellite TV station is willing to pay for such a good TV series.

But compared to the emerging video website aristocrats, satellite TV stations are nothing.

Video websites are very rich.

For example, Youzi.com, a subsidiary of Abao Entertainment, directly offered a sky-high price of 200 million for the global exclusive first broadcast rights. The condition is that the network copyright is exclusive. Even the TV stations are not allowed to broadcast the first broadcast, and they can only broadcast it for two or three rounds.

Shining Technology's Youyi.com even launched a "business without grudges" banner, opening a 250 million, the same conditions as Youzi.com, requiring exclusive premiere.

Compared with throwing money, Shanhai.com has never been afraid of people.

The eldest princess directly shouted out today's price of 300 million yuan, which was four or five times higher than the price of satellite TV. She was very wealthy!

No matter which one Shen Huan chooses when she arrives, what does the mere tens of millions of production costs of "Gift from Room No. 7" count

Not worth mentioning at all!

It has earned more than 200 million before filming even started. Apart from "The Gift of Room No. 7", what other TV series can do that!
