Chapter 129 Really Alas, Don't Bite(1/2)

I saw Wang Shifeng take out his laptop and start preparing to write. Everyone who witnessed the whole process looked different.

There are confusion, curiosity, admiration, and contemplation.

So a strange silence fell into the business car, leaving only the sound of Wang Shifeng typing on the keyboard.

Seeing Wang Shifeng's slender fingers flying like butterflies on the keyboard, Jiang Yun vaguely remembered that she had seen this picture last time.

So she held her forehead and frowned, and asked in confusion, "Can I ask, why do you have such a strange order of projects every time you do it?"

When normal people do projects, they are existing projects and works, and then they talk about investment, personnel and other details.

But Wang Shifeng seems to talk about investment first, then confirm the personnel details, and finally start confirming the project and works!

It's completely the opposite.

"Is it strange? What's strange?" Wang Shifeng didn't raise his head and stared at the screen to continue outputting.

"You don't even have a script, but you dare to talk about investment directly. Are you so sure?" Jiang Yun was puzzled.

"Hey, you don't understand this. Talking about cooperation is like falling in love. Don't worry about whether it will last forever. The most important thing is to get it first." Wang Shifeng chuckled.

What a scumbag remark!

Jiang Yun, Xia Mengyao and Zhen Yi both cast disgusting eyes.

But after thinking about it, it makes some sense.

Investors actually don’t understand whether the project or work is good or bad. They only care about the value and return rate of the work.

But this value depends entirely on how the initiator explains it.

Wouldn't that be crazy painting cakes, asking for a huge price to get the money from the investor?

When the money is obtained, the work will naturally come.

"So, before the negotiations with Zhou Sanshi, you really don't know what to shoot?" Jiang Yun raised her eyebrows slightly and grabbed the blind spot.

"Good works need to seize a moment of spark of inspiration or tailor-made, so you must first solve the problems of investment and actors in order to create excellent works." Wang Shifeng said with confidence.

"Oh? In other words, you found inspiration from me?" Xia Mengyao was delighted.

"Of course, when I talk to investors, my mind is full of your shadow. It is not an exaggeration to say that this movie is tailored for you." Wang Shifeng said with a smile.

For some reason, Xia Mengyao blushed a little when she heard Wang Shifeng say this.

Looking at Xia Mengyao's happy expression, Jiang Yun felt a little sorry for her.

I don't know if I should tell her that the starring of this movie may be a dog or a cat.

Sometimes tailor-made may not be praising you, little fool!

"But the investor is not a fool. What should I do if your video is so hasty and cannot be paid for it?" Xia Mengyao suddenly thought of a key question and frowned.

"You are still top traffic, and you don't have any market intuition. Is the focus of success or failure of a movie the quality of the work?" Wang Shifeng asked with a smile.

???

What's the problem?

The success or failure of a movie has nothing to do with quality? What does it have to do with it?

"Isn't it?" Xia Mengyao was a little unconfident when asked.

"If you don't talk about literary and artistic movies, just commercial movies. Most of the promotion and distribution costs are higher than the production costs, do you know why?" Wang Shifeng smiled.

"Because I can issue more invoices." Xia Mengyao blinked and said seriously.

"Uh... although this reason is also very important, it is not entirely." Wang Shifeng's tone stopped.

"That's to make a percentage of the screening." Xia Mengyao thought about it again.

"This is part of the reason, but the main reason is still the popularity, that is, traffic, and this is also the reason why you can get high pay. The popularity is equal to stimulating the attention of potential users. By promoting the starring status, plot gimmicks, gossip and other methods, add value to the movie and achieve the effect of attracting traffic, because as long as the audience spends money to enter the cinema, the tickets cannot be refunded." Wang Shifeng curled his lips. "For example, the art film released some time ago is that a goddess took off the screen and instantly pre-sales over 100 million yuan. This is the role of publicity and distribution."

"What you said is like doing false propaganda. The quality of the work is not good. No matter how good the promotion is done, it will be a loss." Xia Mengyao retorted.

"It was originally a false propaganda, so the heroine took off for less than three seconds! There was no 120 frames! And it was a light and shadow editing that could not be seen!" Wang Shifeng was a little resentful.

You actually count the frames!

After receiving the disgusting gaze of Jiang Yun and others, Wang Shifeng coughed dryly, "Of course, I'm not the kind of person who goes to watch movies for gimmicks. I'm looking for resources online."

Everyone's eyes became more and more contemptuous.

"In addition to some special phenomenal works, most bad movies that have done well in promotion are basically profitable at the box office. For example, the series of youth pain movies by Godmother Guo, was scolded from the first to the fourth, but the box office was higher than the next." Wang Shifeng chuckled.

Xia Mengyao was speechless for a moment. This example is too true.

"The Xia Kingdom is still a large population, and there are many people who like to join in the fun." Jiang Yun said quietly. "From this perspective, the promotional gimmicks are indeed greater than the quality of the works."

"Pet themes are niche, but the market potential is amazing. If you choose this track, you will not lose even if you shoot it badly. On the contrary, most of the movies that carefully polish the script and study acting skills are well received but not popular, or they are lost to everyone. This is the choice is greater than effort." Wang Shifeng said casually.

"If this continues, who will make a good movie?" Xia Mengyao frowned.

Still not noticed keywords and pet themes.

"Top directors still have their own pursuits. After all, Xia Guo has achieved results in large-scale foreign film festivals every year, but commercial films are essentially a pastime, and can serve the public entertainment. The audience is happy to watch and the investors make happiness, so why not do it?" Wang Shifeng glanced at her.

Unexpectedly, Xia Mengyao actually had expectations for the movie.

It's so naive.

"No wonder the bad movies in recent years have been repeatedly refreshing the lower limit. They are all poisoning of unscrupulous people like you!" Xia Mengyao said angrily, bulging her cheeks.

"Hey! I'm just giving you a reason, don't attack me personally! My character and integrity are still very guaranteed. Fans call me an honest and reliable young man." Wang Shifeng felt that he was slandered.

"Honest and reliable little husband? Only one of these seven words has something to do with you." Xia Mengyao hummed and pointed to the computer screen. "You said you are honest, look at the name of your movie! It's called "Batong"! Are you a story about playing mahjong?"

"Isn't it a pet movie? Why are there eight-piece?" Jiang Yun was also a little confused.

"Can't the protagonist's name beantong?" Wang Shifeng slapped Xia Mengyao's hand with disgust, and you are the only one!

"What a strange name." Xia Mengyao thought this was the name of her character and was a little dissatisfied.

"This name is quite suitable." Jiang Xiaofan suddenly said, "Look, those who are usually called Xiao Ming and Xiaohong are children, those who are called Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang are adults, those who are called Xiao Li and Xiao Zhao are drivers or secretary, those who are called Dahuang and Xiaohuang are called dogs, and those who are called eight-tube cones are called pets."

"Afan is right. For example, when someone called Qiangzi heard it, he knew that it was a high probability that he would be sentenced." Wang Shifeng continued.

When everyone heard this, it seemed that it made some sense.

Nodded in agreement.

???

Xia Mengyao nodded and suddenly froze.

Pet? Isn’t the starring actor me? Do I want to play a pet?

"By the way, Afan said you have raised a border herder. Let's go and see if it's suitable and find inspiration." Wang Shifeng turned his head and smiled.

Xia Mengyao's mouth twitched.

It turns out that you tried your best not just for me! You are also greedy for my dog!

His heart is punishable!

The script of "Otachi" is a relatively famous movie "The Loyal Dog Hachiko" in Wang Shifeng's memory. Because I can't remember all the plots, I can only create a rough outline and main storyline first. Because some local adaptations are required, the rest will be processed with a systematic approach.

It is probably another large amount of healing energy, but you should make a steady profit without losing money.

You don’t have to wait until the movie is released, you can make it back just by relying on the topics brought by Zhang Qimo and the controversies that follow.

Under the leadership of the pissing Xia Mengyao, Wang Shifeng and others visited her border herder’s “pork belly”.

This name sounds like a foodie owner.

Pork belly is a relatively rare red meteorite-colored border herder. It has excellent quality and is raised by Xia Mengyao.

Dogs like Border Collie cannot be treated as normal dogs.

There is a saying in the pet world that border shepherd is border shepherd, and dogs are dogs.

You can see the particularity of border collars. As a dog breed with the highest IQ, the intelligence of border collars is not only reflected in conventional intelligence, they can even handle complex logical relationships.

The sheep attributes of border herders are engraved in genes. It can be said that they are born with the talent of managers and are very cunning.

For example, at the beginning, people never deliberately trained border herders, and completely let them rely on instinct to shepherd sheep, so people discovered a strange phenomenon... Border herders will enforce the fishing law.

A certain rancher lost a sheep when he asked the border herder to lay sheep and was finally found by the border herder. The owner was very happy and rewarded the border herder for a big meal.

So the owner later found that the frequency of sheep throwing sheep increased. Although they were found by the Border Herder every time, they found that the Border Herder could have a big meal when he found the lost sheep. So he deliberately lost the sheep and then found it and got the bug and changed it to the big meal.

So the Border Jacky Chef thought, and the terrible talent of understanding logic was well known to people.

This is why border collars have the best IQ, but they cannot be used as police dogs or working dogs.

Because they have too strong sense of autonomy and have strong logical thinking ability, they are not highly obedient.

For example, when facing the criminal, the owner asks the border herder to go up to attack the criminal. The border herder may roll his eyes on the master and refute him again, why don’t you go up?

So in the eyes of Border Peasants, they do not necessarily think that they are pets, but they feel that they are taking care of humans.

This pork belly raised by Xia Mengyao is probably the same.

"Pork belly! Sister is back! Find the slippers for me quickly!" Xia Mengyao shouted when she opened the door.
