Chapter 502 The Largest Entertainment Group in the Xia Kingdom
,
An idea quickly came to Ding Yue's mind.
Since the special effects producers of "The Wandering Earth" have temporarily increased their prices, and other special effects studios in China are in unison, the cost is too high to find a good foreign special effects company.
Faced with such a situation, why can't I create my own special effects studio?
In the future, the School of Film and Television of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences and Feiyue Media will definitely produce more film and television dramas, and there is a great demand for special effects.
Now that someone has held the "lifeblood", will it still be possible in the future?
After you have your own special effects studio and your own production team, you can completely form the entire production chain by yourself.
As long as Ding Yue's salary for his own people is high enough, there is no need to worry that no one is willing to do special effects for him.
The key is.
The first thing Ding Yue thought of was the students of his Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences. They may be the sharp sword to break this deadlock.
"Director Zhu, does our film and television academy have students who are very good at special effects production?"
Ding Yue immediately looked at Director Zhu Youzhao and asked.
Due to the industry of film and television special effects, it is not a separate university major. It may involve more majors, and various related majors such as graphics and visual 3D may become talents in the field of film and television special effects.
Even under the animation major, there are corresponding courses and the like.
"Although our school does not have a special special effects major for film and television, there are related courses that involve many majors in the Film and Television Academy. Among the group of people majoring in animation, there should be some strong ones in this area. Principal Ding, yours Do you mean it?"
Zhu Youzhao replied, and immediately got the idea of Principal Ding, looking slightly surprised.
"That's right!"
Ding Yue nodded immediately, smiled confidently and said, "Since the summer light and shadow special effects studio wants to dove us, then we will be self-reliant and set up our own special effects studio, and then we can do it once and for all!"
"Principal Ding's idea is good, but... to set up his own special effects studio,
That requires a lot of manpower, material resources, financial resources and even time. In this case, our "Wandering Earth" project may be postponed later. "
When Su Yangfan heard it, he agreed with Principal Ding's idea without thinking.
But this idea is good and good, but the shortcomings are also obvious.
Su Yangfan believes that with the strength of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, it should not be difficult to solve the human, material and financial resources in the front. It is time to make the sci-fi movie "The Wandering Earth".
After all, you have to build your own special effects studio first.
Even if the summer light and shadow special effects studio does not die, maybe the post-production special effects production may not be as smooth as scheduled, not to mention that you have to set up your own special effects studio first.
Hearing this, Ding Yue took a deep breath and said calmly, "It doesn't matter, it's okay to delay it for a while, and with the foundation of our Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences students, it may not be so slow to get started."
Ding Yue thought about it.
Originally, the filming of "The Wandering Earth" ended in September, followed by the post-production and special effects stages, and if it goes well, it will be released in February next year, during the Spring Festival.
The best ideal is to catch up with the Spring Festival this year.
But in this situation, it is understandable that they are worried that the time will not catch up with the Spring Festival.
However, Ding Yue was more confident.
Because Ding Yue can use the reputation points to exchange for the superb technology in film and television special effects production from the system mall, when the time comes, it will be given to the selected students, so that they will get started, and it will not be very slow?
From a technical point of view, there is absolutely no problem in using the special effects production technology for film and television exchanged in the system mall.
but!
Or as Director Su Yangfan said, maybe we have to race against time.
"What Principal Ding said is that it is not impossible to fight for it. It is naturally the best for "The Wandering Earth" to be released during the Spring Festival. If it is not in time for the Spring Festival, then Principal Ding, we will choose the May 1st file. Or the summer time?"
Director Zhu Youzhao then asked again.
"If you can't catch up with the Spring Festival, then let's take the summer vacation."
Ding Yue thought for a while, the Spring Festival is such a good time, it is not necessarily possible to catch up with it.
In a year, the most prosperous half of Xia Guo's film market has three time slots.
Among them, there is no need to say much about the Spring Festival stalls, there are popular movies almost every year.
At the same time, the Spring Festival is also the most likely to generate high box office, and many powerful films will choose to be released in the Spring Festival.
Next is the summer season.
Although the May 1st period is also a good movie release period, but compared with the summer period, the May 1st period is still a little bit worse.
The summer schedule is very long, and generally high-box-office and high-quality movies are often released during this time period.
The second is the Eleven Golden Schedule.
"Director Zhu, please call the Academy of Film and Television, as well as other majors, as long as they are major students and teachers related to special effects production, let's mobilize them."
Since Ding Yue decided to create his own special effects studio, he acted immediately.
"Okay, Principal Ding, I'll do it now!"
Zhu Youzhao nodded, got up immediately, and went to assemble the teachers and students according to Principal Ding's instructions.
Director Su Yangfan originally planned to go with Zhu Youzhao, but was stopped by Ding Yue: "Director Su, wait a minute."
Hearing this, Su Yangfan just stood up, then sat down again and asked with a smile, "Principal Ding, do you have any other orders?"
"As for the special effects, we have the means and ability to solve it, but, what happened this time, Director Su, do you have any insights? Why did Xia Xia Light and Shadow Special Effects Studio temporarily increase the price?"
Ding Yue looked at Su Yangfan very suspiciously and asked.
As an insider, Director Su Yangfan may know more about this matter.
"this......"
Su Yangfan wanted to speak, but hesitated again.
"Director Su, what's the matter? If you have anything to say, just say it. We are all our own people. Don't you get angry when others do something so detrimental to the "Wandering Earth" project?"
Seeing that Su Yangfan hesitated, Ding Yue asked.
"This matter is really infuriating and speechless, but behind the Xia Xia Light and Shadow Special Effects Studio is... it's Q Entertainment Media."
Su Yangfan said with a frown.
"You mean that penguin?"
As soon as Ding Yue heard q entertainment media, he thought of the penguin, no, it should be the black-hearted penguin to be precise.
"Yes, many people don't actually know who is behind Xia Xia Light and Shadow Special Effects Studio. In fact, it is Q Entertainment Media. In a big way, it is the Penguin Group. In China, a large part of film and television entertainment, novels and games are dominated by the Penguin Group. They are very powerful, and we may not be able to offend them."
Director Su Yangfan said helplessly.
In Xia Guo, the Penguin Group has been involved in various fields of Internet entertainment such as the live broadcast of movies, novels, games, etc., and its strength can be said to be quite a monopoly.
In the field of film and television, most people dare not fight against Q Entertainment Media.
"Hehe, it's just a little black-hearted penguin!"
Although Ding Yue knows that the CEO of Penguin Group often ranks among the richest people in China, the income of various Internet entertainment fields involved in Penguin Group is obtained by the constant squeezing of source creators and consumers.
"President Ding, this, this, this, these words can't be said nonsense. I suspect that the "Wandering Earth" project of our Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences may have started targeting us after being known by Q Entertainment Media."
Su Yangfan sighed and said helplessly.
"No, we, Q Entertainment Media, and Penguin Group have not had any conflicts or competition so far, right? What should we do against us?"
Ding Yue suddenly couldn't figure it out.
The industries that my Feiyue Group is currently involved in, the Penguin Group, and Q Entertainment Media seem to have little competition, so Q Entertainment Media has no reason to engage in its own "Wandering Earth" project.
"Uh, this, Principal Ding, you may be too busy at ordinary times. You don't know yet. I also heard from a friend of mine before."
Su Yangfan looked hesitant.
Ding Yue knew that Director Su Yangfan must know more, so he looked serious, looked at Director Su Yangfan and said, "Director Su, say it!"
"Principal Ding, this is what happened. Didn't we Feiyue Media kill the Quartet last time with "Super Marines"? This time, Q Entertainment Media didn't know where to get the news, and learned that we Feiyue Media, Wucheng Wenli The university is making a big sci-fi movie, and the most important thing is that Q Entertainment Media is also making a sci-fi blockbuster this year, so..."
Su Yangfan didn't finish his words, and looked at Principal Ding while talking.
Ding Yue immediately understood what it meant.
"So, Q Entertainment Media is deliberately targeting and making things difficult for us because it is worried that our "Wandering Earth" will collide with their sci-fi blockbuster?"
From what Director Su Yangfan said just now, Ding Yue was able to guess that this was the case.
"This is probably the case. Most of them have heard of it, and there is no specific information to confirm." Su Yangfan nodded and said.
"Okay, does this still need confirmation?"
Ding Yue shrugged and said with a cold smile: "As soon as you say that the summer light and shadow special effects studio is behind Q Entertainment Media, I know it, isn't this the consistent urination of penguins?"
"That's true."
Su Yangfan also doesn't have a good impression of Q Entertainment Media.
Because Q Entertainment Media adheres to the traffic route, and everything respects traffic, Xia Guo's film and television entertainment market is about to be biased by Q Entertainment Media.
But Su Yangfan believes that in film and television entertainment, everything is based on quality!
Actors have acting skills, wonderful plots, and well-made productions. This is the characteristic of a TV series or movie, rather than hiring a few traffic stars, and the costumes and props are neat and clean. Every day, the water army boasts of harvesting fans and occupying the market.
"Director Su, just watch, sooner or later, the little penguin will suffer the consequences."
After Ding Yue finished speaking, he stood up and was ready to see how things were going on at Director Zhu Youzhao's side.
......
at this time.
Haicheng, Q Entertainment Media Office Building.
Q Entertainment Media is known as the strongest entertainment media company in China and a galaxy battleship in the field of film and television.
However, in the past two years, Q Entertainment Media has felt some crises.
Whether it is in TV dramas or in the field of movies, the influence of the works produced by Q Entertainment Media every year has gradually been affected by some "miscellaneous brands".
Let's just say that a TV series produced by Q Entertainment Media the year before, encountered "Contact in Time and Space" produced by director Su Yangfan at that time, and the ratings were robbed of many, many shares.
last year.
q Entertainment Media invested in a sci-fi movie. The director was Ma Wenhai. That sci-fi movie was "Battlestar", and the box office was a disaster!
These two Waterloos made Q Entertainment Media begin to notice a person.
This person is Su Yangfan.
Not to mention that the previous year's TV series was killed by Su Yangfan's "Contact in Time and Space".
Last year, Ma Wenhai's sci-fi movie "Battlestar" could be said to have lost to the animated movie "Super Marines" by Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.
it's good now.
The two are combined.
Su Yangfan went to Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences. It is said that he also became the producer of a big project. He was going to cooperate with Xia Xia Light and Shadow Effects Studio.
But sorry.
Behind the work of light and shadow special effects in summer, it has been controlled by Q Entertainment Media.
"Old Zhang, you told me last time that Su Yangfan from Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, can't find a suitable special effects partner, is it going to be cold?"
in the chairman's office.
Chen Xueming, chairman of Q Entertainment Media, is chatting with general manager Zhang Wu.
"If you don't die, you have to peel off the skin. It is difficult for him to find a special effect team in China." Zhang Wu said with a confident smile.
"This move is really bad enough."
Chen Xueming pointed at Zhang Wu and said jokingly.
"Who made that Su Yangfan look unpleasant." Zhang Wu shrugged and said, "Let's not say that one of our TV dramas was smashed into the sand the year before, and now it has joined the box office of "Battlestar" that affected our investment last year. I went to the Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, who is not targeting him?"
"It's just a small director. Is it worth it to let President Zhang make such a big deal?"
Chen Xueming always felt that Zhang Wu made a big fuss.
It's just a small director, and he has mobilized so many resources to target him.
"My Chairman Chen, don't you see that I kill two birds with one stone? Am I just targeting that rotten director Su Yangfan?"
Zhang Wu smiled and said.
"Oh?"
When Chen Xueming heard the words, he frowned slightly and muttered: "You mean, no wonder, you are also targeting Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences by the way, right?"
"Old Chen, if it weren't for the "Super Marines" from Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences last year, the "Battlestar" that we invested in would still have more than ten or twenty billion at the box office!"
As soon as Zhang Wu said this, his teeth itch with hatred.
As one of the investors of "Battlestar", Q Entertainment Media can be said to have lost money on this film last year.
One of the main reasons for the loss is that the "Super Marines" of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences is too strong, directly squeezing the box office space of "Battlestar"...
