Before The College Entrance Examination, My Life Was Gamified

Look at the future of Longguo movies with the eyes of a traveler.

It is necessary to start from the film industry, shoot some special effects blockbusters, and follow the same path as Hollywood today.

Putting visual enjoyment as the first element, only when the audience enjoys watching it will they be willing to buy tickets, right?

Take the film "Sunny Day" directed by Jiang Wenda as an example. This domestic film was rated as "the top ten best films in the world in 1995" by Millikin's "Time Magazine". Has the movie gone out?

No!

However, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Li Xiao made Dragon Kingdom's martial arts films show their face all over the world.

But the audience of this movie only wanted a sense of novelty.

After that, Lao Mouzi's "Hero" was not bad at the overseas box office, earning 170 million US dollars in box office worldwide.

But what about House of Flying Daggers?

It has dropped to 70 million U.S. dollars~gold.

Therefore, this kind of ancient costume martial arts special effects film is regarded by foreign audiences as just watching the excitement.

It is simply impossible to cultivate a loyal audience for Chinese-language movies.

If you want Longguo movies to go abroad, you still have to rely on modern special effects blockbusters.

Because whether it is a disaster movie, a superhero movie, or a sci-fi movie, these are all themes that have no cultural barriers. Even if there is no dubbing, the audience can still understand it.

It's a pity that there were not many special effects movies in Longguo in the early 20th century.

The current old monster Xu can be regarded as one.

But this person is obsessed with the theme of fairy tales and can't extricate himself. The 2000 "Legend of Shushan", including the later "Di Renjie" series, the scenes are indeed very beautiful, but they turned suspense movies into fantasy movies.

After much deliberation, Li Bai still decided to come by himself.

The silence in the office is a bit too much now, whether it is Ning Hao, Tian Xiaopeng, or Chen Tianqiao, they are all addicted to the script and cannot extricate themselves.

It's just that Ning Hao's expression became more and more excited, while Tian Xiaopeng and Chen Tianqiao's frowns became tighter and tighter.

A few hours later, Ning Hao was the first to finish reading the script.

He didn't pick up "Perfect World", but looked at Li Bai pitifully: "Boss, can't you entrust me to shoot both movies?"

To be honest, after watching "A World Without Thieves" once, Ning Hao felt that the script suited his taste.

But if he was asked to choose between "A World Without Thieves" and "Perfect World", he really couldn't do it.

Besides, only children make choices. He said that he is an adult, and he wants to.

Li Bai had expected this situation a long time ago: "Sure, which one do you plan to make first?"

"Of course it's "A World Without Thieves", and we can do post-production while filming. Even if it can't catch up with the Lunar New Year file, it can be released during the Chinese New Year. I found that there were a lot of movie audiences at that time."

Yo, director Ning Da has a good vision.

Now Longguo does not have a New Year's file, and Ning Hao can see that the movie market is booming during the New Year, so it is somewhat forward-looking.

Li Bai looked at Ning Hao playfully: "Okay, how do you plan to choose the hero and heroine?"

Ning Hao turned his head, and his face was full of tangled expressions.

According to the boss's usual practice, it is natural that the fat and water will not flow into the fields of outsiders.

But right now, the company's actors really don't have any suitable actors and actresses.

You can't let Huang Bo play the male thief, can you?

But the role of Uncle Li can be challenged.

After much deliberation, he still decided to take the quality of the movie as the premise: "Boss, in my opinion, it is best to ask Liu Tianwang to play the male lead, Zhang Ziyi for the female lead, Bozi for Uncle Li, and Huang Sheng for Xiaoye." According to Yilai, other actors in the company can play some important supporting roles, but Shagen is hard to find.

Li Bai nodded, Ning Hao's casting is still fine.

As for the role of Shagen, besides Wang Baobao, is there anyone else who can interpret that feeling?

It's like someone in the later generations who also planned to follow Baobao Wang's path, but it's a pity that he pretended to be stupid throughout the story, and he didn't have the audience popularity of Baobao Wang at all.

Li Bai calculated the time: "For the role of Shagen, you can go to Wang Baobao from the crew of "Blind Well"."

"Blind Well"?

How come I haven't heard of this crew?

Although Ning Hao was at a loss, he still nodded.

There is no need to question the boss's vision.

The actors of "A World Without Thieves" have been confirmed, and Tian Xiaopeng and Chen Tianqiao have almost finished reading the script.

The two of them frowned: "Will the script of "Wall-E" be a bit slow? And there are not many lines, just like the mimes of long ago.

Li Bai smiled and shook his head: "This movie itself is a story about loneliness, don't worry, as long as you make the movie with quality and quantity, I guarantee you will be a blockbuster."

After finishing the matter on the side of Dark Horse Media, Li Bai received another call from Guo Dongliang.

……ask for flowers…

He is temporarily in charge of the Dragon phone.

Because Li Bai is still in the imperial capital at the moment, the two can only communicate on the phone.

"You mean companies like Nokia and Samsung are asking us to increase the price of the Dragon phone?"

Li Bai frowned, feeling a little displeased.

Guo Dongliang hesitated for a long time: "To be honest, the price of our Dragon phone is indeed a little low. Although the profit is considerable, the cheapest mobile phone on the market now starts at 3,000 yuan. Our high-quality smartphones, The low-end version is only priced at 499 US dollars, which does not meet the quality of the Dragon phone itself.

Li Bai's brows stretched out. The previous pricing was based on the price of later generations of Apple mobile phones and the production cost of Dragon's mobile phones.

..0...

I really forgot the positioning of mobile phones in 2002, and now this thing is still in the category of luxury goods.

Mobile phones with better performance can be sold for 16,000 Longguo coins.

Guo Dongliang continued: "Nokia, Samsung and other companies say that if we can raise prices, they will be responsible for publicity..."

After listening to Guo Dongliang's words, Li Bai stared wide-eyed: "Aren't these mobile phones crazy? They agreed to such a condition of humiliating power and humiliating the country?"

Although after the advent of the Dragon Smartphone, becoming the number one mobile phone brand is simply a matter of certainty.

But these big companies can actually promote it like this, wouldn't that directly push the Dragon phone to the world's number one throne?

What are they drawing?

Li Bai fell into deep thought. According to the current situation, at least in the next six months or even a year, the mobile phone market will be dominated by Dragon phones.

Other companies want to develop their own smartphones, even if Li Bai provides mobile chips, screens, running memory, etc., they must develop their own characteristics.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be another replica Dragon phone?

Perhaps this development time will be longer.

It's better to surrender temporarily and silently develop your own smart phone. It's best to surpass the Dragon Clan in one fell swoop, so that you can truly show your heritage.

"Good calculation! But is it really that easy to surpass the Dragon phone?" Li Bai's eyes lit up: "Since they want to take the initiative to promote the Dragon phone, then promise them that the retail price of the Dragon phone will increase by 300 US dollars."

At this moment, a series of marketing strategies have already appeared in Li Bai's mind. .
