Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 2212, the rapid development of the film industry
With Daming Pictures cooperating with businessmen from all over Daming through the transfer of copyrights, the movie "Huo Qubing Defeats the Huns" was released in various parts of Daming and even around the world at the fastest speed.

Relying on the strong charm of the movie, coupled with the excellent production of "Huo Qubing Destroys the Huns", the movie quickly became popular all over Ming Dynasty.

The first people to come into contact with movies are naturally the big cities around the world. In the squares, stadiums, venues, etc. of big cities, movies are shown every night, and the venues are almost full.

Expensive tickets can no longer stop Daming people from going to this movie, because if you don’t go to the movie now, you won’t even be able to talk about it.

Both men, women and children are now discussing this movie, discussing the plot and content of this movie. If you don’t watch it, you don’t even know what the movie is.

Only by going to see it for yourself can you know what the movie is like, what it says in the movie, and what form it uses to spread it.

Otherwise, you would not understand at all why those people were so excited, excited, and hooked after spending expensive tickets to watch a movie, and they all felt that the money was not in vain.

It is incomprehensible not to watch it, and you may even feel that these people are fools. It is too expensive to spend a few taels of silver to watch a big show or something, and it is better to buy food and other good deals.

Only after seeing it in person, you may feel that the house number is too expensive, but you will not regret it, and you will also feel that the ticket is a little expensive, but it is still worth it.

Movies quickly became popular in various parts of Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, they also became popular in overseas colonies, vassal states, and vassal states.

All of a sudden, the entire Ming Dynasty was discussing this movie and the history of the early years of the Western Han Dynasty.

The newspaper readers in the teahouse have to make up for this period of historical knowledge, otherwise you will have no way to tell people about this history.

The same is true of the teachers in the school, because there are always students who will ask about this aspect, such as what is the Huns, why are we called Han people and so on.

For ordinary people, after watching this movie, the consciousness of family, country and world becomes clearer. At the same time, they are also deeply attracted by the scenes of thousands of troops, gold and iron horses. A large number of young people hold the idea of ​​serving the country loyally. The idea is to join the army.

Countless literati splashed ink and wrote wonderful poems one after another to express their inner emotions. At the same time, they used to be full of contempt for soldiers, but now they have gradually changed this concept.

Soldiers are no longer Qiuba, but their image has gradually become taller. They are loyal men who serve the country with loyalty, warriors who defend their homes and the country, and a powerful force for a nation and a country to stand up to the world.

The continued popularity of movies has always been going on, and there is an enduring trend and feeling.

A steady stream of money also flowed into Daming Films like flowing water, making Daming Pictures profitable.

The movie theater I opened sold crazy tickets and made a lot of money.

But this is only part of it. The ones that make a lot of money and money are selling copyrights, such as in super big cities like Songhu.

With a population of several million, a prosperous economy, and very attached, a big city like this has huge market potential. Daming Films sold tens of millions of taels of silver just for selling copyrights.

In addition, in the provinces of Ming Dynasty, overseas vassal states, colonies, vassal states, etc., discerning businessmen from all over the place are looking for Daming Films to purchase copyrights.

If any copyright is sold, it will be a few 10 taels to millions of taels. When this is added up, it is very impressive and huge.

It was much larger than Hong Ting's initial estimate, and it also made Daming Films a huge profit. Not only did they recover the initial investment and costs, but they also had a large amount of sufficient funds. Silver to make more movies.

Because of Liu Jin's instructions, Daming Films is also expanding rapidly, developing a large number of film and television industries.

On the one hand, it constantly improves and improves many film-related technologies, and builds its own factories to produce film, projection equipment, etc. On the other hand, it sets up multiple film shooting teams at the same time, and starts shooting multiple films of various themes at the same time.

Because of the money, Daming Films even plans to build a professional film school to cultivate film and television-related talents, develop related technologies, and so on.

These have greatly stimulated the development of the film industry.

In just a few months, Daming Pictures originally only had a few thousand employees, but it quickly expanded to tens of thousands of people. The trend of forming a new and huge industry.

Of course, it's not just Daming Films that is laying out all aspects of the film industry.

Since ancient times, as long as it is a profitable business, there will be no shortage of people, and the same is true for the film industry.

From the beginning of the movie release, to the rapid popularity and the full house, people immediately realized that the movie industry is a very promising field and industry in the future.

In a very short period of time, dozens of film companies, large and small, have been established in the Beijing-Tianjin area of ​​Daming. Some of these film companies directly go to Daming Films to buy copyrights, and then go to various parts of Daming to play movies. , Collect tickets to make money.

Others are learning from Daming Films and shooting movies by themselves. After all, the copyrights of Daming Films are too expensive.

The casual agency of a region's copyright can easily cost several 10 taels of silver, which is simply unaffordable for people with no financial strength.

Even if it is affordable, you have to worry about whether it can recover the cost and whether it is profitable.

A careful businessman calculated carefully. The cost of making a movie may not even need 10 taels of silver. It is not necessary to learn such a huge scene as "Huo Qubing Defeats the Huns". Some ordinary movies, actors It doesn't need much, and the venue, props, etc. don't need to spend too much money.

It doesn't cost much to hire some actors and so on. Calculated, it is estimated that tens of thousands of taels of silver is enough to make a movie.

Why spend so much money to gamble, spend the money to make a movie by yourself, and then cooperate with others to release the movie, the custody will also make a lot of money.

There are many shrewd businessmen, and many people who have seen the money in the film industry. In just a few months, many films are being prepared.

It's just that everyone is a novice, doesn't know much about all aspects, and is also a novice. The progress of this shooting is very unsatisfactory.

In particular, many people did not prepare well in advance. The film produced by this film is completely incompetent. There is no way to compare it with "Huo Qubing Defeats the Huns", and there is no way to show it.

So until the end of 1751 in the Yanhuang calendar (the third year of Zhengde), when Daming Films was preparing to release three films at the same time, no other film companies had released their own films.

This makes many investors quite anxious.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, according to the past situation, this Chinese New Year period is the moment when Daming people's spending power explodes. No matter what product or commodity it is, it will be very easy to sell, and any business will be particularly easy to do.

If this movie can be released in time a few years ago, with the popularity of the movie now and the peak sales season during the Chinese New Year, it can easily make a lot of money, even if the movie is not shot well. Well, the shooting is so-so, but now the movie is still very clear, and everyone will still pay for it.

Bai Baoting, the owner of Shengshi Films, came to the film crew of Shengshi Films because of this incident.

Bai Baoting is not considered a particularly rich man. There is only one textile factory in his family, and the scale is not too large. There are only more than 1000 textile factories.

Now that the textile industry is very competitive, it is already a red sea, and the profit is very thin.

Therefore, Bai Baoting wondered whether he should make a change. Coinciding with the emergence of movies, he immediately saw a huge business opportunity, so he decisively decided to switch to the emerging industry of movies.

It took a lot of money to hire people to shoot the movie, but because they didn't have much experience, the progress of the shooting was still unsatisfactory, and it took several months.

Bai Baoting's money has already poured in almost 10 taels of silver, but up to now, the filming of this movie is still not finished, and seeing that the funds on hand are about to dry up, he is also very anxious now.

There is an urgent need to finish filming the film as soon as possible, and then bring it to the market for screening, so that the funds can be withdrawn quickly, so that they will not be unable to survive for years.

Of course, he also urgently needs to see if this movie can make money, and whether the industry in which all his money is gambled can bring him new opportunities and huge wealth.

Compared with the textile industry, the film industry has just started, and he believes that he can definitely find gold in this field.
