Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

After a brief joke,

Zhou Tao looked at Chen Xiao and said,"Director Chen, I'll think about it and find you a good one later."

Chen Xiao nodded and said,"Thank you."

In fact, he didn't want to find someone to deduce the error.

The development of cutting-edge technology in this world is not much different from that in the original world, just a little bit ahead. It's mainly the application of technology, which is extremely advanced.

《The script of"Interstellar" was calculated and polished by Nobel Prize winners in the original world, so there should be no major problems in science.

He invited authoritative physicists for the sake of the word"authority".

Find an expert to take charge so that the audience will not question whether there are any physical problems.

The business is almost over and the food is ready.

The three of them put away the script and chatted while eating.

While the two of them were talking about work, Chen Xiao also simply calculated the income in his mind.

The box office revenue of the movie must first deduct 8% of taxes and special funds. The remaining 92% is divided among the producer, distributor, and theater.

Of the remaining part.

The producer generally gets 35% to 40%.

The Ministry of Culture is looking for someone to distribute���, the producer is estimated to get 42%.

The producer's share must first be deducted from the profits of the screenwriter, director, and actors.

Generally speaking, this part should account for 10% of the total. As a director and screenwriter, he is estimated to get 5%.

The remaining 32% is divided among the three parties.

He contributed 70%, that is, 22.4% of the 32% belongs to him.

Adding the 5% shared by the screenwriter and director, the proportion of the amount he gets after deducting taxes and funds is 27.4%.

According to the total box office, it is: total box office * 92% * 27.4% is approximately equal to 25.2% of the total box office.

Pay another 20% tax... Damn, his money!

Fortunately, the world has low taxes, but 20% is a bit painful.

Calculate it, the money in hand is about: 20% of the total box office.

As for the total box office...

The market for science fiction films is not large, and this movie has a physics knowledge threshold.

But his reputation with the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Science and Technology can attract a group of audiences.

Overall, it is conservatively estimated that the domestic box office can reach 4 billion.

Then the money he got is 40*20%=800 million.

Damn... so poor, it only doubled.

But fortunately, there is also the overseas market.

The global market is estimated to reach 6 billion. The producers in each region have different shares, so let's estimate it at 20%.

The money he got is 1.2 billion.

The total is 2 billion.

Not bad.

Hiss - after finishing this movie, why not shoot Avatar, at least it will make money!

An hour later, the three of them put down their tableware one after another.

Zhou Tao smiled and said,"I have a meeting at nine o'clock, so I'll leave you first. You two can chat slowly."

After saying goodbye to Zhou Tao.

Chen Xiao and Li Zhiming quickly shifted the topic to"Farewell My Concubine"

"Director Li, I hope to have Farewell My Concubine participate in international film festivals and be screened overseas. What do you think?"

Li Zhiming's eyes lit up,"We have the same idea. Which one do you want to go to? Venice Film Festival, or Berlin? Or Cannes?"

After saying that, he raised his teacup and was about to take a sip of tea when he heard Chen Xiao say

"I want to go to all the festivals I can, such as the Venice Film Festival, the Berlin Film Festival, the Shanghai International Film Festival, the Japan Critics Film Award, the New York Film Critics Association Award, and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award.……"

Li Zhiming listened to him babble the names of the awards, his heart trembled, and the tea in his cup also swayed.

This kid really has great ambitions.

When he read out these awards, wasn't he excited?

He read them so calmly, it almost felt like he was counting the awards he had won.

""Okay, I got it. Your idea is very good, then report it."

After he pretended to be calm and said this, he felt like his heart was about to jump out.

If the Peking Opera promotional video he took the lead in shooting wins awards at the three major national film festivals like"Titanic", or even wins several awards.

Then...

Thinking of this, Li Zhiming, who always keeps his emotions to himself, couldn't help but feel excited, and his cheeks flushed.

If he really won it, he couldn't imagine how smooth his future in the cultural field would be!

In a period when the country is vigorously revitalizing culture, use traditional culture to win glory for the country.

In the future, he will definitely soar!

He took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then laughed heartily:"Director Chen, when filming"Interstellar", tell me what you need, you're welcome! Core team, I'll find the best for you this time!"

Chen Xiao was stunned.

What's wrong with Director Li?

Suddenly, he smiled as if he had drunk wine.

But he didn't say much, and agreed,"Okay, thank you Director Li"

……

The next morning,

Chen Xiao was finishing the detailed version of the script at home when his cell phone rang.

"Good morning, Secretary He."

"Hello, Director Chen, Director Li asked me to contact you to ask about your requirements for the core team members."

Chen Xiao put down his pen after hearing this, thought for a while and said,"Please help me find a photography director who is good at real shooting."

Secretary He was stunned.

Director Li said it was a science fiction film, how could he find a director who was good at real shooting.

He confirmed:"Real shooting? Is it actual shooting?"

"Yes. No need to find a special effects supervisor, I will lead the special effects department myself. But I will try to find the best special effects artists."

"OK, I've made a note of it."

"No need for music, I'll do it."

Secretary He pursed his lips.

He sighed silently in his heart, if Director Chen had several clones, the whole crew would have to give up.

He quickly wrote down the request in his notebook, and soon Chen Xiao's voice came from the other end of the phone again.

"Oh, yes, everyone must be strong and hardworking, especially the art director."

This time we are going to go to other places to shoot on location, including glaciers.

Don't ask old seniors with inflexible legs and feet.

The art director doesn't have to plant corn himself, but he has to confirm the beauty of the scene. If he finds someone who is weak and can't take care of himself, he will have to go in person.

Secretary He nodded and wrote in the notebook"Everyone must be hardworking, especially the art director……"

He paused in his writing.

Hmm?

Isn't it the art director's job to judge beauty?

Did I hear wrong?

"Director Chen, let me confirm, hard work and perseverance are the key, especially for art directors, right?"

"Yes, that's right. She should be strong and not afraid of the sun.

Secretary He scratched his head.

Then we should probably find someone younger.

"OK, I understand."

Then, with a puzzled look on her face, she wrote down his request in her notebook.
