Chapter 350 347. What restricts us?!(2/3)
"Puff...Ko cough cough cough..."
Ai Xiaomi sprayed it out directly and was choked by the tea.
She looked at Boss Cao in disbelief while coughing.
"Still shooting?!"
Are you sick?
Boss, are you sick?
"With such a bleak result, I lost so much money this time, and I still have to shoot it?"
Now Ai Xiaomi feels that she can make a lot of money when she goes back to shoot her art films, and she won’t lose so much, even if she loses.
But - if the boss is either crazy or stupid, or he is crazy and stupid, or if he loses more than 70 million in a movie, who can bear it?
No matter how big a heart Ai Xiaomi is, she can't stand this.
Since she took over Bomi Pictures, no work has been successful, which is a psychological blow to a director.
The kind of experience of dreaming about losing money every night -
Ai Xiaomi doesn't want to do it again.
"You don't understand..." Cao Yang said calmly, "The market needs to be cultivated. Now it starts production. By 2009, the market environment at that time was completely different."
"Well……"
Ai Xiaomi said in his heart, I believe you, I believe you.
The market in 2007 was so big, and it was already the ceiling that we could make 700 million yuan.
Could it be that the film market in 2009 will have billions?
Isn't this a joke?
Cao Yang took a sip of tea silently and said, "Even if the strong man is stabbed, he must stand up and fuck him.
Only the weak will make excuses.”
"Boss, can I admit that I am a weak person?" Ai Xiaomi said timidly, shrinking her face back and even squeezing her double chin out.
"No!" Boss Cao said sternly, "We have all experienced so many failures. Are you willing to stop here? We will definitely succeed, believe me!"
"Well……"
Ai Xiaomi said in his heart, I believe you, I believe you.
Although I am not willing to stop here, the key is-
Boss, every time you make a decision in film and television, you feel very unreliable.
The same was true for the live-action TV series "Honor of Kings", and later the same for "The Wandering Earth", and there is a tendency to lose more and more.
But the boss is willing to burn money, and she has no choice.
The entire film industry department should be a long-term loss under Bomi Group, and there is no company that makes money, right?
This is also a very amazing record.
Seeing Ai Xiaomi looking a little scared, Cao Yang said calmly: "
I have analyzed that this time, the performance of "The Wandering Earth" in China is definitely very impressive. The problem is that the box office results abroad are not as high as we imagined.
Our country's film market is actually growing very fast. According to my judgment, by 2009, the market size will be at least twice as big as it is now."
This should be a necessity, because this time "The Wandering Earth" hit the ceiling directly.
In order to make money, those cinema chains will find ways to expand for a long time in the future.
With a population of 1.4 billion in China, people's consumption concepts are also being transformed step by step.
Now it is at a turning point in history and is in the process of qualitative change, so there is definitely no reason to give up.
The arrival of Bomi and Cao Yang have accelerated the changes in consumption concepts of many Chinese people. Before the Aier game platform came out, how many players can pay for stand-alone players in China?
Now that online games and stand-alone players are blooming, people's consumption concepts have been changed, and paying for entertainment and spiritual products has become a major trend in the future.
Especially this year, driven by "The Wandering Earth" and "Love Call Transfer", the Spring Festival has become a hit and has also cultivated a lot of people's movie-watching habits.
Watching movies in the future will no longer be a luxury. They will become an important channel for people to relax and socialize in their spare time.
This market is being driven by rapid growth, so Cao Yang has no reason to give up.
2009 must be an extraordinary era.
Cao Yang patiently explained the feedback and related analysis received by the future market and Ome region on "The Wandering Earth" to Ai Xiaomi.
Seeing a large amount of professional data and a questionnaire conducted by the survey team on more than 200 Ome viewers, Ai Xiaomi believed Cao Yang's words.
Her whole body was completely refreshed, her face was full of energy, and she was eager to try it out.
"Boss, tell me what I want to do?! I am mentally prepared, let us do another big vote and create brilliance together!"
Mom!
At this time, Ai Xiaomi followed the door completely differently.
At this moment, Cao Yang was so moved that he was extremely moved——
That Ai Xiaomi is back!
"I've thought about it, and next time we will definitely make a 3D science fiction movie.
But this time, we must invite professional teams to do English dubbing. Compromizing foreign audiences is also a step to go global. When our cultural output is strong enough in the future, let foreigners adapt to our soundtrack movies."
Cao Yang also made up his mind to make this decision, because if you backfire, you will be scolded by the Chinese people. He thinks that you are admiring foreign countries and pleasing Omida.
But Cao Yang also understood very clearly that we must pass the level of exporting culture and language barriers. Even when we are playing games, we also provide an English version. We need to use ways that other countries can understand and accept them in order to spread the cultural connotation of our country more widely.
Just like many Americans use Chinese to spread American culture in China, it is the same as Chinese.
Language is just a carrier.
When China is truly powerful in the future, it will be able to make Chinese the world's largest language and let the whole world learn Chinese. By then, even if you do Chinese soundtrack, foreign audiences will still accept it.
"Yeah." Ai Xiaomi nodded with a burning look, "Yes, it's really a mistake for us not to use Omi's dubbing this time, or we don't know enough about the Omi market."
"Then don't be so anxious next time. We must first submit it to the review and get the rating. The rating of our movie will definitely have a wider audience."
This time the lack of grading also stems from Cao Yang's lack of understanding of the Ome film market and the lack of understanding in the team.
So Cao Yang will not make the same mistake again in the future.
"What we did the most right this time was to respect the original work and found an actor from Dongdao to join the film production," Cao Yang said. "Otherwise, the Dongdao market would not have such a good box office result."
"Yeah." Ai Xiaomi put his hands on his knees and nodded seriously.
“So what are we going to do this time?”
"Huh?" Cao Yang was stunned for a moment, "Do you still need to ask? Of course, you should continue to do Wandering Earth 2!"
"ha?!"
Ai Xiaomi sipped out of blood.
"And, are you still wandering the earth?"
"Isn't this nonsense?" Cao Yang chuckled and said, "We are the wandering earth, the accumulated technology and art materials... These are very precious wealth, and it would be a pity not to continue to use it.
And the story of "The Wandering Earth" is far from over.
We only talked about the first part, and there is still half of it to be discussed in the future.
Taking advantage of the popularity of "The Wandering Earth", we will continue to shoot the second part and then consider other things."
Yes, "The Wandering Earth" 1 now tells only the 15 years after humans left the Earth, using Jupiter's gravity as one of the explosive points.
However, Liu's book lasts for a long time. Although it is a macro narrative, there is still a lot of content that can be done later.
Until now, Cao Yang has a deep memory of the group of [Earth Schools] in the book using death as the final cry. He wants to show the human nature, the vastness of the universe and the belief in humans... these things.
That will be a higher level thing, the feeling of God looking down through the perspective of the characters in the play.
"So the story of "The Wandering Earth" is not over yet. We need to give a more complete explanation in "The Wandering Earth 2." Cao Yang said.
"Okay." Ai Xiaomi nodded.
Cao Yang is right, who can do anything that will succeed forever?
What's more, Bomi is the first to do a domestic 3D science fiction movie. It is inevitable to step on the pit in the middle, but it has also accumulated a lot of experience for the team. Whether in production, distribution, publicity, or strategies in different countries, Bomi Company has done well or not. These are very valuable experiences that other companies can't get.
You have already had so much experience. Wouldn't it be a waste if you don't convert them into success?
So after Cao Yang's encouragement, Ai Xiaomi was full of confidence in the next movie.
At least she has experience now, knows how to control costs, knows where to spend money, and where to spend less, and the next work will definitely be better.
...
The two of them discussed the relevant script structure and some main designs of "The Wandering Earth 2" in the boss's conference room. It took about two hours, and Ai Xiaomi had no questions.
"Okay, I know everything. There is definitely no problem with this movie. Boss, please leave it to me!" Ai Xiaomi clenched her fists and encouraged herself and her boss.
To be continued...
