Chapter 168 Request (2/4)

Three girls.

The staff helped them to the elevator, and then Shen Yan carried them into the room one by one...

I called the female hotel staff to help me take off my coat and shoes, and then stuffed me into the big bed.

This is a basic quality, also known as the defense between men and women. After all, he is a man!
Take advantage?
What's the advantage?

Oh, and I even asked the hotel staff to prepare three bowls of hangover soup, which I fed to everyone one by one...

When he was done, he placed three glasses of water on the bedside table, closed the door, and left the room.

Let’s spend the night on the sofa in the living room!

However, he didn't know that when he turned off the lights and closed the door, Yang Tianbao, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them...

Two eyes sparkled in the dark room.

……

The official start date of "Our Girlhood" is March 3th, and today is April 14th.

In other words, a movie was completed in less than 50 days!
This cycle... is actually very normal.

After all, this is just a youth campus film!

The total cost of filming was 1020 million...

The remaining 380 million was basically used in the later stage.

The post-production of a film actually consists of three levels:
First: assembling shots, which is what we call editing in daily life;

Second: the production of special effects, such as the production of lens effects, the production of three-dimensional elements in the picture, and special effects elements;
The third is the emergence of sound and the introduction of stereo.

The special effects for the production of "My Girlhood" were very simple, consisting of just a few scenes...

The most important thing is product placement...

Many wall logos need to be replaced with embedded brands, such as China Construction Bank and Ping An Insurance...

These two companies are big sponsors, each sponsoring 300 million!
Then there is color grading, filter restoration, and music composition.

In short, 1400 million is not too few!
The company, Spark Studios, will bear 60%, which is 840 million, while Wanda and Light Media will each take 20%...

Advertising revenue of 2000 million...

The costs have been covered!
Shen Yan is still very confident about the profitability of "My Girlhood"...

When he woke up early in the morning, Guo Fan came to see him, and the two of them chatted directly in the living room about the precautions for the later stage...

——He’s about to join the production of “Number” and doesn’t have time to focus on post-production…

"I'm not worried about the editing. The storyboard for this movie is very complete... You just need to edit according to the script..."

"Well, don't worry about this, I won't cut it randomly."

"I found Teacher Lin An'er for you, you can also learn from her!"

Lin Aner, one of the most famous editing directors in the Chinese film industry, is the editing director of many excellent films such as "Kung Fu" and "The Guardian", and is known as the "No. 1 Editor in the World"!
Letting Guo Fan learn from me is not entirely a joke.

Guo Fan nodded: "I understand..."

"Pick a few songs by Rene Liu and Andy Lau for the soundtrack... Oh, and Grasshopper's 'Lovestruck Alliance'..."

"Um…"

"The theme song is 'Little Lucky'... I will sing one version... and then let Shi Shi sing another version..."

"Looking for a talented singer?"

Shen Yan shook his head: "No, just the two of us can sing!"

Tian Xzhen... not only is it confirmed, but she also took the initiative to jump out...

Shen Yan didn't dare to have anything to do with her.

"Brother Yan, when will you join the crew of "Fanhao"? "

"Next week," Shen Yan scratched his head. "I definitely need to rest for a few days... I can't just jump into another role right after this drama ends... I also need to take some time off from this role!"

Guo Fan then asked, "...Do you know The Adventures of Li Xianji?"

"I know..." Shen Yan nodded: "It's a cartoon, it's pretty awesome!" "The Adventures of Li Xianji" is a 2009-minute cartoon that became popular on the Internet in 20. At that time, Renren had not yet collapsed, or it was in its heyday. It was also from Renren that "The Adventures of Li Xianji" spread rapidly.

The click rate exceeded 10 million.

The audience is very broad, including straight men, those born in the 80s, game geeks, and romantic films with a touch of literary style...

The reason why "Li Xianji" is touching is that it describes an emotion, an emotion that is difficult to extricate oneself from, paranoid, stubborn, and pure!
Li Xianji stubbornly beat the game over and over again...

Later, when we looked back, we gave this paranoia a name: youth, or youthfulness!
Guo Fan added, "Do you think it can be adapted into a live-action movie?"

“…It’s not easy!”

Guo Fan's version of "Li Xianji" actually tells this story:

In order to go back to the past to save his girlfriend Wang Qian who died in an accident, Li Xianji plays games crazily. As long as he completes the game, he can travel through time and space.

The characters' motivations are simple and clear, without much emotional foreshadowing.

In the end, Li Xianji met his younger self. When a quarrel was about to happen, he closed the car door and prevented the tragedy from happening, but he lost Wang Qian forever in his own world...

"I've finished filming!" After a pause, Guo Fan continued, "Animation + live-action!"

"Who are you looking for?"

"Fang Zumin... Wang Ziwen!"

“How much did it cost?”

“About 300 million…”

Shen Yan was a little surprised: "You spent 300 million to make a movie? You're pretty impressive!"

Guo Fan sighed: "I have no choice... The boss only gave 300 million..."

The film was originally planned to be a purely animated film with a budget of less than 300 million yuan.

Guo Fan believes that this budget will be difficult to succeed in the market because there are very few animated films that can stand out in the market, and the way the animation shows the two people chatting is relatively monotonous.

Therefore, they decided to change the film into a live-action film combined with animation...

This film is produced by Dasheng International Media, which has also participated in "Ip Man 2", "The King's Men", "Wuxia"...

However, Shen Yan was surprised: "Didn't they say that the film adaptation rights cost 200 million?"

Guo Fan was frank: "...It's just a publicity stunt. They even said Feng Xiaogang was interested!"

Huayi is planning to use its strongest lineup of Feng Xiaogang and Zhou Xun to produce "The Adventures of Li Xianji"...

Then the adaptation rights were snatched by Datang International.

Clearly marketing...

Shen Yan nodded: "That's right, after all, my script fee is only about 100 million!"

A script written by Wang Shuo can’t sell for 200 million.

"What do you want from me? Can I help you promote your blog?"

“…almost. I want to buy a patch trailer!”

"A trailer for 'My Girlhood'?"

"Ok!"

Shen Yan frowned: "Do you know how much the "My Girlhood" patch costs?"

Without waiting for Guo Fan to answer, Shen Yan asked himself, "A 15-second Cadillac sticker costs 400 million... How much can you pay for a trailer?"

Movie pre-roll ads are advertisements for corporate products or images that are copied along with the movie. They usually play for 15-30 seconds before the main movie.

Unlike the in-movie ads in cinemas, movie in-movie ads are still very expensive...

Generally, popular movies start at 15 million per 300 seconds!
The four commercials for "Hero" set a record high price of 2000 million.

Guo Fan scratched his head: "Can it be cheaper?"

Shen Yan was a little speechless: "... Ask them what the highest price they are willing to pay..."
