Chapter 673
After the mood stabilized, Wang Xiaoyan sniffed and said: “Momo, the movie is only halfway through, and the budget has already seriously exceeded the target.” “Should we re-plan the shooting plan and adjust and optimize unnecessary expenses?” “Otherwise, the total investment will definitely exceed 1 billion yuan according to this method!” Wang Xiaoyan did not dare to continue the rest. That is, the film and television industry in Longguo is as stinky as the national football team in the field of science fiction movies. In addition, some time ago, “Fortress of the Magic City” had another big shit, which disgusted the audience who were originally looking forward to it. Not only did it not open the door to Longguo’s science fiction movies, but it also blocked the windows and even the sewers. The theme of science fiction movies has become a taboo that all directors and investors in Longguo dare not touch.
Even in this situation, Su Mo chose to face the challenge and challenge the highest level of difficulty…
And the investment is over 1 billion, which is too risky in Wang Xiaoyan’s opinion!
You know, the total box office of “Magic City Fortress” finally stopped at 124 million.
It can barely pay Lu Han’s 120 million salary, which can be said to be a complete loss!
And this is based on the fact that the audience is already looking forward to it and has not been fooled.
But with the bloody lesson of “Magic City Fortress”, after learning from the mistakes.
The audience will definitely be wary of domestic science fiction movies and will not easily pay for them.
Then the challenges and difficulties that Su Mo will face after the release of “The Wandering Earth” will be very great!
If one fails, it is likely to lose all the money, and 1 billion will be thrown into the water.
But Wang Xiaoyan couldn’t and wouldn’t say these words now.
Because in her opinion, it was very unlucky to say such depressing words before the movie was released.
Seeing Wang Xiaoyan’s fear of losing money, Su Mo immediately smiled and comforted her:
“Sister Wang, just put your heart back in your stomach, it doesn’t matter even if it exceeds the budget.”
“You should know that now I have made a lot of money by collecting water-fired engine patent fees, cancer cell crushers, blind vision glasses, ultrasonic age reduction cabins, and kidney qi tonic pills.”
“Ten small goals are just a drizzle for me.”
Seeing that Su Mo didn’t seem to understand what she meant, Wang Xiaoyan scratched her head in worry:
“Mo Mo, I know you are not short of money, 1 billion for What you said is just a drop in the bucket. ”
“But what I care about is not the money, but… your reputation!”
“You won the Dragon Country Best Director Award with “Dying to Survive” and won many international awards.”
“This is an unprecedented miracle in the film and television industry. You have already stood on the altar!”
“As the saying goes, a tall tree attracts the wind. I don’t know how many people in the industry are jealous and looking forward to your embarrassing fall!”
In Wang Xiaoyan’s heart, she really has no confidence whether the audience will buy into Dragon Country’s science fiction movies again.
Therefore, in her opinion, the safest way for “The Wandering Earth” is to control the investment.
After all… every director has made mistakes and lost money.
But the problem is that losing 100 million and losing 1 billion are two completely different concepts.
Losing 100 million, at most people will laugh at you for a while, and then forget about it.
If you lose 1 billion, you will be nailed to the pillar of shame and laughed at for a lifetime.
After hearing what Wang Xiaoyan said, Su Mo immediately understood what she was worried about.
“Sister Wang, I have considered all the issues you are worried about.”
“Then do you know why Hollywood science fiction blockbusters are so popular all over the world?”
“On the other hand, as soon as “Fortress of Magic City” was released, it was criticized by a lot of people?”
Hearing this, Wang Xiaoyan said without hesitation:
“Because Hollywood science fiction movies have advanced and mature special effects technology.”
“And from production to distribution, to publicity and other links are very mature.”
“As for “Fortress of Magic City”…it’s strange that the audience didn’t criticize it for its 50-cent special effects and the bad and awkward plot acting!”
Su Mo nodded thoughtfully: “Most of what you said is right, but you didn’t get to the core.”
Under Wang Xiaoyan’s puzzled gaze, Su Mo continued:
“Science fiction movies want to present realistic science fiction scenes and high-tech equipment.
and advanced equipment. ”
“Then you can’t save money on costumes, props, and special effects.”
“These may not be achieved by spending money, but shoddy production to save money will definitely be fake at first glance.”
“Just like the Western science fiction movies “Avatar”, “Avengers 4” and “Spider-Man”, which one has a total investment of more than 1 billion Longyuan?”
When it comes to this.
Su Mo’s tone is mixed with a hint of dissatisfaction:
“The film and television industry in our Longguo has entered a pathological trend.”
“In order to guarantee the box office and make money, investors and directors have also followed the wrong path.”
“One by one, they are willing to pay sky-high salaries to traffic stars and young actors, but they are reluctant to spend the money on costumes, props, special effects, and other aspects that can truly improve the quality of the film.”
“As a result, the works produced are shoddy, fooling the audience again and again to make money. ”
“Just like the investors of “Fortress of Magic City”, they were willing to pay Lu Han 120 million yuan for the film, but were reluctant to spend money on scene special effects. ”
“This pathological practice will greatly damage the audience’s viewing experience and make the audience gradually lose confidence and expectations in domestic films.”
“After being hurt by shoddy works that are used to make money again and again.”
“The audience will have resistance to the entire film and television industry and will no longer be willing to go to the cinema to support domestic films.”
“This will seriously hinder the healthy development of the domestic film market.”
Hearing Su Mo say this, Wang Xiaoyan opened and closed her mouth, and closed and opened again.
She does not have the same vision as Su Mo, and will not consider the future direction of Longguo Film.
In contrast, she only cares about Su Mo’s own reputation and interests.
“Sister Wang, “The Wandering Earth” is very important to me.”
“I want to use this work to kick open the door of the Longguo science fiction market that was welded shut by “Fortress of Magic City”! ”
“Show the investors and directors in the film and television industry that the era of using traffic stars to guarantee box office revenue will never come back!”
“If you want to make money in the film and television industry in the future, you have to calm down and polish your work carefully.”
“Only by truly using funds to improve the quality of the film can you win the recognition of the audience.”
“This time, I want to make “The Wandering Earth” a new benchmark for domestic science fiction films and point the way for the domestic film and television industry!”
