This entertainment industry is a bit strange

Chapter 397 Guaranteed quality and quantity, speeding up

Cheng Long had already chased after him to ask questions, so Yang Rui didn't need to hide his polite words any more, and just stated his opinion completely.

Including the problem of twisting the script, including the vain problem of the characters... 10 minutes, including the problem of Cheng Long's own acting skills.

Cheng Long didn't say anything for a long time after listening, but finally heaved a long sigh, "It's really not easy to hear a little truth."

Yang Rui was a little taken aback, and asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

Cheng Long smiled wryly and explained briefly.

After the failure at the box office, the producers and investors must have a meeting to find out the reason, but these people had a long meeting, and finally came to the conclusion that...the film itself is fine, it's because the audience doesn't know what it is!
Mainland audiences are so vulgar. They only watch vulgar comedies and cannot accept serious themes that delve into human nature...

They may not really think so, but no one dares to tell the truth. After all, the influence of Cheng Long's signature is not limited to the film field.

It takes some courage to pierce through this layer of emperor's new clothes. To tell the truth, the price is likely to be kicked out, and you want to invest next time.

Want to eat fart!

But Yang Rui took off the emperor's new clothes without any scruples, and he stripped them clean.

"Thank you, young man, your truth is worth ten thousand gold to me!" Cheng Long said seriously.

Yang Rui smiled sheepishly, "Don't blame me for telling the truth."

"Hahaha..." Cheng Long put his arm around Yang Rui's shoulders and shook it, "So it is definitely the right choice for me to ask you to transform! I hope that you can also hold me to high standards and strict requirements when filming, Qian Don’t imitate their frivolous tricks.”

Yang Rui sighed helplessly, it's okay if you don't mention this, but it's bad if you mention it.

I don't know if that decision will destroy "Infernal Affairs"?
Cheng Long only stayed for half a day and left. Before leaving, he took a photo with the "Undocumented Crime" cast and posted it on his Weibo, which was regarded as free publicity.

All of a sudden, the market of this web drama, which was not expected at first, was instantly bullish.

Even those advertisers who were originally pushy and thwarted, have the cheek to come to the door... The influence of superstars can be seen.

But Yang Rui directly ignored these advertisers.

You ignored me yesterday, but today you can't afford it, why do you love me?
The original cost of this film is not high, firstly, there is no sky-high film remuneration, secondly, there is no need for sky-high production costs, and thirdly, there is no need for laundering, and there is no need for too much advertising investment. Wen Wen wants to be the sole proprietor of the film.

After Cheng Long left, the crew entered the high-intensity introversion mode again, and the shooting progress kept advancing at a high speed.

In the two years since his debut, Yang Rui has never filmed such a smooth scene, and it is simply a kind of enjoyment to play with those powerful parties.

It took only 42 days, and the crew successfully completed the filming.

For the current bad dramas on the assembly line, this shooting speed is actually not an exaggeration. Some fake trash dramas can shoot you thirty or forty episodes in half a month.

But "Undocumented Crime" is different. This is a record created on the premise of ensuring quality and quantity!

After a sumptuous wrap-up banquet in Bingcheng, the crew assembled and returned to Qingfeng, and disbanded at the airport upon landing.

Others can enter the holiday mode, but Yang Rui's work has to continue - the show has been transferred to post-editing, and he has to watch the whole process.

As soon as he returned to the company, he received a box office summary report from Ding Lan.

The North American release of "Heroes of Fist of Fury" has ended, with a total of only 237.4 million US dollars, which is far from ideal.

Although he was prepared in his heart, Yang Rui still felt a little disappointed when he heard this result. It was tragic, it was really a bit miserable.

As far as the total box office is concerned, he didn't even bother to inquire how much money he would get in the end. Mosquito meat was bland and tasteless.

As for the European release that will start in a few days...he didn't hold out much hope, even if it was better than the North American results, it was probably not much better.

The theme of Chinese people's awakening and self-improvement really cannot be accepted by white-skinned gentlemen. The natural ZZ is not correct and there is no salvation.

Just focus on your new job!

Since there is a complete filming effect in my mind, there are not many materials accumulated during shooting, so the workload is much smaller than normal editing.

The production department, which was already preparing for continuous overtime work, was immediately confused.

It turns out that in our company, is the work of post-editing so easy?

It's a bit embarrassing to get such a high salary!

After two days of careful sculpting, the final edit of the first episode took shape. Except for the lack of opening and ending songs, it is basically the final product.

After copying a sample, Yang Rui made an appointment with Ding Lan to discuss the price of the show with Station A.

Brothers settle accounts clearly, cooperation belongs to cooperation, and money still needs to be discussed clearly.

Before leaving for Mingzhu City, the financial consultant Fu Mingsheng, who had been in Yun Province for more than a month, finally came back.

In addition to bringing back a bunch of special products from Yun Province, he also brought back a bunch of coffee beans of different brands, as well as related draft cooperation agreements.

Adding up, there are a total of eight brands of all kinds, and Yang Rui's eyes are a little dazzled.

"Have you tried all these beans, and the level is okay?"

"Well... I can only say that it's average." Fu Mingsheng said honestly, "The quality of the beans is average, and the roasting level is also average. It may be a bit unsightly to take it out for competitions, but it's not a big problem as an ordinary commercial bean."

"After all, not everyone has a golden tongue. If you take these beans and ask them to cup them, they probably won't be able to taste any difference. Besides, our main series is still with milk. This bean is completely enough."

Yang Rui nodded, "What about the price?"

"The quotations are very low, and almost all of them are sold at the cost price. Obviously, they are looking for us to promote with the intention of a win-win situation."

Fu Mingsheng replied: "I did some calculations. According to the 18 grams of powder required for a cup of concentrated powder, the lowest price can be as low as 6 cents a cup, and the most expensive one is only 1.1 yuan a cup. The cost is very controllable. "

After quickly calculating the overall cost, Yang Rui nodded with satisfaction, "This price range is fine, we will make affordable series, don't rely on consumption traps."

Fu Mingsheng was taken aback when he heard that, "Aren't you going to disgust Starbucks?"

"Of course you have to be disgusted with it, but confronting it head-on is like hitting a stone with a pebble, which is unrealistic." Yang Rui chuckled, "What we Chinese consumers pay attention to is cheap and affordable coffee. On a large scale, sooner or later it will be possible to 'surround the city from the countryside' to overtake!"

Fu Mingsheng was a little suspicious, nausea wasn't enough, how about overtaking?

This sounds...why does it seem a bit unrealistic?
