Huayu's body has a small broken station

265 Chapter 269 - Budget Exceeded
During this period of time, the miraculous Neijing gave Tongguan another secret recipe. After giving a medicinal bath for whitening and removing scars last time, the secret recipe this time is a bit weird.

The general meaning is that it can make people self-sufficient. If Tongguan encounters a crisis in the end of the world, bring the beauties at home, among other things, at least you don't have to worry about the supply of drinking water.

This prescription is a bit powerful, no need for pregnancy...

At the end of March, Tongguan brought Wan Qing and Qu Manjia back from Europe. Although the filming was completed, Tongguan did not use all the original versions in many places, and found many replacements.

Of course, it is currently in preparation, Tongguan also needs to look at the actual situation, but after returning to China, Tongguan went to the film and television special effects company as soon as possible. Although Inception is a 2D movie, it can be used in the movie Special effects are not as simple as 3D.

Fold a city, and there is a more classic shot, the whole street will be blown into particles.

Damn it, I don't know if Wen Xinyu didn't explain it clearly to the other party or the special effects company couldn't do it, but Tongguan carefully selected it.

If nothing else, it should be the special effects company that will shoot The Wandering Earth in the future.

Why, because there was a painting classmate in Tongguan who participated in the behind-the-scenes production of Wandering Earth. He boasted about his company at the class reunion, but his classmate was also a storyboard artist in the company.

So I still have the impression of Tongguan, so I found a special effects company in China along the way.

"What a coincidence?" Tongguan ran into someone from China Film by accident.

"Hey, Director Tong, who is this?" The people from China Film Group were a little surprised.

After all, they are old acquaintances. The two met outside the same special effects company and had a brief chat. Of course, they knew about Tongguan's movie China Film, which has been preparing for this year.

"We also recently approved a sci-fi blockbuster, Teacher Liu's The Three-Body Problem..." There is nothing to hide about the Three-Body Problem. Last year, China Film had already started this project, but this year I heard that the director has been confirmed.

The two chatted all the way until they found the director of the studio. China Film Group made contact with this side, and Tongguan only contacted this year.

Sure enough, this company is indeed the future, no, it has already started to make special effects for the wandering earth, and it can make a flow earth, so there is no reason [Inception] can't do it.

Since Wen Xinyu had already consulted here before, but neither of them could understand the other's meaning, Tongguan took out a storyboard rendering directly from the folder this time.

This time it became clearer. After all, it was necessary to keep it secret before, and things like stealing movie plots are not uncommon in the circle.

When Wu Baige was filming Mission: Impossible, he wrote a small script every day for fear that other companies would steal the plot.Some ideas were also dictated to Cruise.

However, after Wen Xinyu signed the contract with the other party, Tongguan's communication became more convenient this time.

Sure enough, after receiving the answer from the other party, Tongguan was also relieved. He used the so-called VR mirror technology, and then showed Tongguan the effect of their company's shooting.

"I have a question now. If I'm not mistaken, you guys also accepted the shooting of the three-body problem!" Tongguan hesitated after looking at the shooting machine.

Although the other party did not answer, this already involves commercial secrets.

"My question is, is your company capable of completing two film projects? My special effects work here is not just a few, I also need a lot of special effects support!" Tong Guan said again.

"We have already understood this. Let me briefly reveal that our workload was really insufficient before, so we found a cooperative company again. If you want to give us a chance, Director Tong, we will invite another cooperative company to join in. About You can rest assured about the progress.”

"Then can I ask which cooperative company it is?" Tongguan asked.

"It's Mo MoreVFX and Orange Vision, together with our company, our three companies can fully undertake the production of two films."

"Mr. Tong, you can rest assured that these two companies have been cooperating with us all year round, and the VR mirroring technology is our company's patented product. In addition, we will also invite other foreign special effects companies to share the workload. ..."

Tongguan listened to the technical director chatting with him about these more professional issues. He couldn't understand anything else, but he did remember Orange Vision. It was the company his classmates bragged about in his previous life.

After leaving this special effects company, this is also Tongguan's first communication with the other party, and he will have to chat many times before formally signing the contract.

Next, Tongguan finally returned home, and took out some of the sub-shots he drew to Qi Ruoyan, and carefully explained to her the special effects needed for these scenes. If there is no problem with the special effects company, then they can formally sign the contract. up.

As for the VR mirroring technology, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is just using other people's machines to assist in shooting. What you shoot with an ordinary camera and other people's machines are two different things.

This is equivalent to a Nokia mobile phone in the 80s and a smartphone today, both of which can make calls, but are they the same thing?

In the past, the cameras used in Tongguan shooting were equivalent to old Nokias, but this company uses today's smart phones.

"I roughly estimated it, and combined with the price given by the other company, isn't our investment this time a bit big!" Wen Xinyu said and took out a budget statement.

This still doesn't count the actors' salaries and other extras, it's just pure film production funds.

Tongguan looked at the countless zeros, counted them with his fingers, and looked at Wen Xinyu in disbelief, "5 million?"

"This is still a rough calculation, and I haven't counted other things. Are you sure you want to play so big?" Wen Xinyu asked, "In addition, I heard that China Film Group is going to shoot Mr. Liu's novel, and the investment there is only about 2 - Around 3 million."

"But it's nothing. I heard from Tiantian that the National Teacher is also preparing a movie about the Great Wall this year, with an investment of about 10 billion!" Qi Ruoyan added on the side.

"Hiss..." Tongguan has a headache, hey, why is this year so cruel, just pay attention to the situation of Hollywood blockbusters, but it's not easy at all in China. "I'm thinking about it, give me two days!"

Back in the room, Tong Guan calculated silently. According to the money he earned in the past two years, he and the people in the studio basically split half and half, so as much as he earned, these aunts and grandmas would earn as much.

At the end of last year, the share of [Sassy Girlfriend] has already arrived in the account, and the first payment of this year's [Sunny] has also arrived.

In other words, the company has probably made more than a dozen small goals in the past three years. This is still a rough calculation, so I am afraid that it will increase funds by 20.00% to [-]% in the future.

Combined with the actors' remuneration and other messes, the film needs at least 10 billion as a base, which is similar to the Great Wall investment of the National Teacher.

Although it is not necessary to invest all of your own company, what if it fails?In the past, it was a small fight, and the investment was tens of millions at most, and the announcement was only a small goal at most, and Tongguan could afford it.

'Why don't we shoot racing cars!Now is not too late! After Tongguan received the first sum of money from [sunny], plus a pair of songs, zero and zero total funds, once again came to show love.

It was thrown out in front of Qi Wanqing.Resolutely told him that he wanted to eat a soft meal for the rest of his life, and that he really didn't make money to spend on others, but to help everyone accumulate virtue.

Anyway, a kite in Tongguan turned over and jumped up from the bed. During this period of time, he was not really idle abroad. He still drew the script and sub-shots of the racing car, but it was on the computer.

I ran all the way downstairs and found a few people who were chatting, "Make a budget for this project, I'll think about it then!"

? ? ? ?
"What are you watching? I plan to make at least four of this racing movie. This is a series of movies I created for our company. If I run out of money, I will rely on him to pay for it." Tongguan said angrily.

"We were talking about this, but Wan Qing told us about the situation when you were writing this script in Europe!" Wen Xinyu said amusedly.

"Ahem, I'm going to rest first!" Tong Guan said and went upstairs again.

As Tong Guan, who watches movies and copies materials, there are people around him. How can Tong Guan explain it? There is no way to explain it. Could it be that he is not watching an art film, but a film in a parallel world. There is a bug in this world, so it was not filmed. .

Qi Wanqing and Qu Manjia didn't need to be jet-lagged, they played with Tongguan all night before boarding the plane, and slept all the way back to the capital after boarding the plane.

As for Tongguan, it doesn't matter if he is jet-lagged or not, but since he's back, he'll just lie down at home for a while, and it's not suitable to go out crazy just after he came back today.

Having said that, Wen Xinyu and Qi Ruoyan have been working in the capital after this Chinese New Year, and Xiaowei, Xiaomin and Qiu Yun have traveled to the Pacific Ocean with Tongguan anyway.

So after dinner in the afternoon, Tongguan caught the two of them and went crazy in the backyard. After trying the mysterious prescription for Wen Xinyu and Qu Manjia before, he turned around and planned to use it for all the stocks at home.

Tongguan rested at home for a full week, and the time has come to April. Tongguan looked at the two movie budgets in his hand.

Double open!

That's right, Tongguan has already decided to double-open. First of all, [Inception] will be considered as the official preparation, and even if it starts shooting, it will be in September-October.

And the preparations for "Fast and Furious" don't need to be too troublesome. After all, it is the first part, and there are not too many scenes. There are several places in Tongguan for the story background, such as Xiangjiang, Lijiapo and San Francisco.

As long as Tongguan decides to make preparations and casting within January, it can be completed.

In fact, there was a reason why he chose [Inception] first. He wanted to see the character of these celebrities. Their words were awesome, and no one knew what they were like.

[Fatal Rush] But it is a series of works. Why did Iron Man stop after filming 3 films? It’s because he can’t afford the salary of the leading actor. Making a movie is equivalent to working for the leading actor. How can this be accepted by the producer.

So the casting must be done carefully.
