Chapter 407: Never try to wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.
"Hey." Li Junmiao shook his head helplessly and sighed. At least he wouldn't dare to shoot at such a high cost. Can't Xingyi Media come up with the money? Of course it can, and it can also be shared with some other film and television companies.
The cost was high, but the risk was too great. He didn't dare to gamble, and the company's shareholders would not allow him to make such a huge gamble.
Because once a loss is made, the stock price will definitely plummet, and even if it barely makes a profit, it is destined to be only a small profit. This is the dilemma of Chinese-language movies.
Han Fei naturally understands Li Junmiao's helplessness. Is there any domestic film with a production cost of more than one billion? Of course there is, and that is "The Great Wall" of "National Master". The production cost is 150 million U.S. dollars, which is about 1.173 billion yuan. However, this film
The film actually starts at the beginning
The target is the international market. Many people say that "National Master" is old. In fact, it can be seen from the script that this movie is a typical Hollywood movie. It is nothing more than Americans fighting monsters to Chinese people and Americans.
People fight monsters together and save the world.
"National Master" has actually been looking for ways to break the cultural barriers between the East and the West. However, the failure of "The Great Wall" has also made this attempt more difficult. It suffered a loss of 80 million US dollars. I wonder which Chinese film and television company dares to take such a big risk?
Risks to impact foreign markets?
Many people in the industry even ridiculed the "National Master" because of the failure of "The Great Wall". Look, this guy is really just showing off, and he lost again, right? This kind of person is really ridiculous.
"In fact, there is no need to be so pessimistic. Just because we can't do this kind of technology now doesn't mean we won't be able to do it in the future. Hollywood movies have pointed out the direction for us. As long as we follow their footsteps step by step, there will always be corners to overtake."
opportunity." Han Fei could see that Li Junmiao really wanted to make a good film.
movie, which is why he opened up all the special effects accumulation of "Tiangong" to help him complete "The Legend of Mermaid". Sometimes a person's power is limited after all, and the road to his dream is often lonely. If
Having someone who can go with you seems like a good choice.
After Han Fei and Jiang Qinghou left, Li Junmiao let out a long sigh, and Qi Yuzhen frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm not as good as him." After listening to her husband's words, Qi Yuzhen fell silent. She and her husband were both very strong people, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten into this situation. She didn't expect that her husband, who had been proud for half his life, would suddenly say this.
It really surprised her.
The popularity of "Amazon" has made the entire summer vacation extremely lively, and the box office of "Tomatoes" and "The Best of Us" have also been greatly affected.
"The Unparalleled" was finally released for 30 days, and the box office stopped at 2.33 billion. Although it was considered a big profit, it was still far behind the expected box office of 3 billion. How could they be reconciled?
The box office performance of "The Richest Man in Tomatoes" was not very good under the pressure of "Extreme Players", with 2.58 billion in 30 days of release, but fortunately, it can still be content and is not in a hurry to finish.
The emergence of "extreme players" has also made many viewers have a strong interest in VR games, even Han Fei is no exception.
However, after playing several VR games, Han Fei found that the current technology is not perfect enough. Carrying VR equipment for a long time is too heavy on the eyes, and it can also cause side effects such as dizziness and nausea. The effect is actually the same as
There is no difference when playing computer games, except that the mouse and keyboard are replaced by a controller, and the computer monitor is replaced by VR glasses.
"But this is a good direction." Han Fei thought about it and called Yuan Hong to the office.
Before Yuan Hong could get his ass wet, Han Fei asked: "Can we make VR games with our current technology?"
Yuan Hong was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, he knew that the boss must have been stimulated after watching "Extreme Player", so he told the truth: "In fact, VR games are not difficult, and [Tiangong]'s technical reserves are completely sufficient."
, but this technology is not mature enough at present, and even if it is developed, it will be difficult to find a market."
Han Fei waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. I'm going to build a VR game company again. You choose a reliable person to do it. You don't need to worry about the research and development funds. It's enough."
Hearing the word "Guan enough", Yuan Hong felt something in his mind and nodded: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
Soon a news began to circulate within "Tiangong" that Mr. Han was going to establish a new company, and he wanted to transfer some people to take up positions. Positions? Well, when you hear this word, it sounds very lofty. It is obvious that he wants to be a leader.
ah.
As the saying goes, it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. Although it is a new company, it still has the opportunity to be a party leader. Some of the more marginal employees have begun to take action.
However, in order to avoid the construction period of the original order of "Tiangong", Yuan Hong did not transfer many people. Most of the people in the new company were directly recruited by headhunters, and only a few technical personnel and managers were hired in the new company.
Regarding this new company, it has not made waves in the gaming industry, and it is even more of a trivial matter in the film and television industry. Everyone is still focusing on the competition between "The Richest Man in Tomatoes" and "Extreme Player" for the top spot in the box office.
"Tomatoes" was released for 40 days, with a cumulative box office of 2.83 billion. On this day, the box office of "Actual Player" exceeded the 2.85 billion mark, successfully surpassing the top spot.
Public opinion was in an uproar for a while. Although the momentum of "Extreme Gamer" has been strong, and it seems to be only a matter of time before surpassing "Tomato Rich Man" to become the top of the list, when this day comes, many media and movie fans are still a little glassy.
Even many entertainment reporters came to interview Han Fei.
In this regard, Han Fei's performance was relatively indifferent: "Actually, there is nothing to say. [Extreme Player] is a good movie, and it is natural for it to top the box office. This does not mean that [Tomato Rich Man] loses, you know
[The richest man in tomatoes]’s investment is only one-fortieth of [Extreme Player]’s.”
It seemed that this was indeed the case. Soon the media made various "interpretations" of Han Fei's words, and then turned them into various reports and published them on various platforms. For a while, many glass-hearted movie fans came to life again and began to "interpret" Han Fei's words.
"The Richest Tomato" is so popular that it barely deserves the label of a national movie.
But does Han Fei really think so? Obviously not, it is just for the final promotion of the box office of "The Richest Tomato". Although "Extreme Player" invested a lot of money, the cost was recovered in North America, and in China Film
The market is purely profit-making. In terms of the profits of both parties, the "Extreme Player" also crushes the "Tomato Richest Man".
