Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 314: The Perfect Script for Returning All Poisons to the Clan!

Pei Qian thought for a moment, but still felt that he could not take this risk.

It's better to fool Feihuang Studio to spend a lot of money, and let them come up with their own ideas and scripts, so that the probability of losing money is the greatest!

Therefore, regarding Huang Sibo's expectation, Pei Qian avoided talking about it and diverted the topic elsewhere.

"Creativity is such a thing, don't worry."

"Aren't many directors writing scripts as they shoot on set?"

"I believe Director Zhu Xiaoce can do it too!"

"The point is, as a film and television studio that has been established for nine months and relies on Tenda Group behind it, it is still too brazen to make some short video dramas and earn money from Qiafan and online stores. Ambitious!"

Huang Sibo opened his mouth, subconsciously wanting to refute.

What happened to the nine months of establishment, is nine months a long time? ?

Many film and television studios close their doors within half a year, not to mention nine months. Feihuang Studio has been open for nine months now. Although the videos made are profitable and profitable, most of the responses are good. The results are not bad. okay!

But looking at Mr. Pei opposite, Huang Sibo felt embarrassed to say these words at all.

Indeed, think about how many good games Tenda has made in nine months!

Compared with Tengda, the current achievements of Feihuang Studio are indeed not worth mentioning.

No wonder Mr. Pei was disappointed with Feihuang Studio.

Huang Sibo felt a little ashamed, and said, "Then...Mr. Pei, do you think that Feihuang Studio should try to make some official movies?"

Pei Qian nodded: "That's right. I've also shot short videos and documentaries, and the director and staff's abilities are fine. Why are you still hesitating?"

Huang Sibo frowned slightly: "Uh...not enough budget?"

Pei Qian smiled slightly: "If you have a small budget, you can make low-cost movies. If you are really short of money, you can ask me directly. What's the big deal?"

Huang Sibo was a little embarrassed: "This... the budget is actually only one reason..."

"Mr. Pei, it's not that I'm too conservative. The point is, making short videos and making big movies are not the same thing at all!"

Huang Sibo began to tell Pei Qian the way of doing this.

The duration of "President Pei's Daily" is only a few minutes, and the duration of "A Day in the Life of a Great Inventor" has increased a lot, but it is only a dozen minutes, and the longest episode is only half an hour.

But if it is a serious movie, it will take 90 minutes if it is to be released in theaters.

On the surface, it seems that the duration has only been doubled several times, but in fact the difference here is too great.

A short video of a few minutes can be pieced together with various funny jokes. The whole story can be messy and scattered. As long as it can make the audience laugh, it is considered a success.

But for a 90-minute movie, it is absolutely not enough to make the audience laugh.

To make an excellent movie, the story must be complete and the emotions of the audience must be well controlled, which is much more difficult than short videos.

Just a few jokes can't support the reputation of a big movie.

Many big movies made on the basis of the popularity of online dramas hit the street because the creative team simply does not have the hard power to make big movies well, and simply understands big movies as "extended online short dramas", so Only then was thrown into the street.

"So, Mr. Pei, if you want to make a serious movie, the risk is too great!"

"If you're not sure, it's better not to take the risk."

"At least, there must be a good script, right?"

Huang Sibo spoke very honestly.

Pei Qian also fell silent.

It seems that Huang Sibo understands it very well!

But if you say that, then Pei Qian is going to shoot it even more!

What Mr. Pei likes is that this thing has a high probability of hitting the street!

Of course, then again, Pei is always a very kind person. Since it is a very risky and easy-to-fail matter, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce must not be blamed for this.

As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell.

This blame, of course, has to be carried by Mr. Pei himself!

Pei Qian thought for a moment, and said, "Since this is the case, this movie will be funded by Tengda, and I will figure out a solution for the script. You and Director Zhu Xiaoce only need to be responsible for the filming."

In this way, if the movie hits the street, the blame is also on Mr. Pei, and it is Tengda's money that loses, which will not affect the mentality of the employees of Feihuang Studio.

Huang Sibo was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Pei, you misunderstood. I'm not afraid of taking the blame, it's simply because..."

Pei Qian smiled and waved his hand: "I understand."

"You are now the CEO of Feihuang Studio, and you are responsible for the projects under your control. It is right to assess risks as much as possible and ensure the studio's profitability."

"You can simply take this shooting task as an exercise opportunity, and it can also be regarded as paving the way for Feihuang Studio to enter the film and television industry."

Huang Sibo's eyes were moist.

move!

He could see that Mr. Pei was worried that if Feihuang Studio failed, it would hurt the confidence of himself and Director Zhu Xiaoce, so he took the initiative to contribute and bear the risk of failure!

No matter whether the movie is a success or a failure in the end, Feihuang Studio will definitely accumulate a lot of experience in the process of shooting to accelerate the growth of the studio.

Huang Sibo has a lot to say, but he feels that it is a bit too outlandish to say too many words of thanks to Mr. Pei.

In the end, a thousand words turned into a thank you.

"Then listen to Mr. Pei's arrangement. Feihuang Studio will definitely cooperate well and complete the shooting task satisfactorily!"

"Also, Mr. Pei. Feihuang Studio can't make all your work for nothing. We will offer 100,000 yuan to buy your script. It's not a lot of money, but it's our heart, so don't refuse."

Um? Spend 100,000 to buy a script?

Pei Qian originally said it casually, but when he heard the number of 100,000, he immediately became energetic.

"OK!"

"I'll give you the first draft of the script in two days!"

There is also a surprise!

When filming "Boss Pei's Daily Life" before, there was already a similar show operation. Pei Qian made a cameo as an actor, "I played myself" and made a lot of money.

But this time, Pei Qian discovered a new way to make money.

Be a screenwriter!

There is a huge gap between the upper and lower price limits of screenwriters in the market. Top screenwriters can earn six figures for an episode, while some newcomer screenwriters may only earn a few thousand or tens of thousands of dollars for a single episode, and they have to revise repeatedly day and night. .

The 100,000 manuscript remuneration should be within the reasonable range in the system's judgment, and it is not considered malicious extortion of system funds.

As for Pei Qian, he doesn't need to write the script in too much detail, he just needs to provide an idea.

All in all, perfect!

The two chatted a few more words, and Huang Sibo got up to leave.

Now that he has decided to officially make a movie, Huang Sibo's enthusiasm for work has been fully mobilized.

After returning to Feihuang Studio, he still has a lot of work to do, the most important thing is to replenish manpower.

...

After Huang Sibo left, Pei Qian opened the file and started writing the script.

Pei Qian knew nothing about movie scripts.

But since this manuscript is worth 100,000 yuan, it must be properly arranged.

You don’t need to beat the draft, just open the document and do it!

"First, decide on the subject!"

Pei Qian typed the word "science fiction" on the document without hesitation.

Sci-fi themes cost a lot of money and are easy to be scolded. It is true that there are many bad movies, which is very in line with the general direction of the box office.

Choosing a sci-fi theme is already half the battle!

Second, is the general outline of the story.

half an hour later.

There is still only the word "science fiction" on the document.

Pei Qian sighed silently, it's broken, he doesn't seem to be this material at all...

He originally thought that he would just write a trash story that insults the IQ of the audience, but when he started writing, he realized that writing a trash story is not so easy...

At this time, Pei Qian really hoped that he could recall the outlines of those bad movies.

It's a pity that Pei Qian is not an avid movie lover, and his experience in reading movies is very shallow.

Moreover, he disliked bad movies very much, never watched the premiere, and as long as the reputation of the movie was low, he would never buy a ticket.

Therefore, Pei Qian couldn't remember the specific plots of those bad movies at all, so naturally he couldn't get any material at this time.

Write one line of text on the document, delete one line, and finally there is only the word "science fiction".

Pei Qian scratched his head.

"It's definitely not good to write like this. You have to change your thinking a little bit."

"Well... I can write it backwards!"

Pei Qian suddenly thought of a good way.

Whether it is making movies, writing novels or making games, their cores are all connected.

If you want to make a good movie, the most important thing is to determine what the audience likes to watch.

Then, conversely, if you want to make a movie that hits the street, you just need to make content that the audience doesn't like to watch, isn't it all right?

The plots of many bad movies are very empty, making people drowsy after watching it. Although this is a good idea, it is not feasible.

What bothers Pei Qian now is mainly the specific plot of the movie.

First determine some specific plots, and then pour water into the script, so that the plot can be empty, boring, and drowsy.

So, what kind of plot is annoying?

Pei Qian couldn't help thinking of a concept in an online novel.

Be poisonous!

The so-called poisonous points are some plots that make readers feel uncomfortable. For example, licking dogs is a big poisonous point.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian was very satisfied and wrote a new line under "Science Fiction", writing: "The hero is a licking dog."

As the saying goes, licking a dog is not a good death.

If the hero finally managed to lick the heroine, then the toxicity of the story would definitely be greatly reduced.

So Pei Qian started a new line, writing: "Lick the dog until there is nothing left."

After thinking about it, this plot seems not cruel enough.

"The male protagonist is green."

"The child is not his."

"The male protagonist wants to raise this child, but this child hates him very much."

"After a series of blows, the hero broke down and decided to take revenge on society."

Pei Qian thought for a while, and felt that something was wrong: "...No, the hero can't take revenge on the society, after all, he's a coward."

Pei Qian didn't want to make this film into a superhero movie, like "The Green Hat", and if he accidentally won an award abroad, something big would happen.

"After a series of blows, the hero collapsed and chose to commit suicide."

Pei Qian still doesn't feel very good: "Well... Suicide, after all, is a small climax of the plot, and it's not appropriate to embark on the old path of traditional tragedy."

"The male protagonist spent the rest of his life in such a grievance."

Pei Qian thought about it again: "It doesn't seem too good, it's a bit too bland. It's best to give the male lead a little hope that all the hard work will pay off at the end, and then let him ruthlessly extinguish it."

But exactly what kind of little hope, and how was it snuffed out?

Pei Qian has no good ideas yet.

But he was not in a hurry, anyway, the script could be written in two or three days.

Just when he was about to close the document, Pei Qian thought of something again, and deliberately bolded the word "science fiction".

Don't forget that this is a sci-fi theme.

In order to spend a little more money on props and special effects, some sci-fi elements must be reflected in the story.

Of course, what kind of sci-fi elements are embodied...

Let's talk tomorrow.

Pei Qian read the current plot framework from beginning to end with satisfaction, and almost died of poisoning.

Very poisonous, absolutely poisonous!

After this set of plots, it can be said that ten thousand poisons return to the ancestors, and there are really many major poisons.

At that time, we only need to enrich the storyline, wrap it in a sci-fi coat, and inject a little water into the plot...

It's all alive!

"Hey, I'm such a wicked person."

Pei Qian felt that he seemed to have a talent for making bad movies!

You should have gotten into the film industry sooner!

In the past two days, I have to go through the outline a little bit, and some more detailed points need to be sorted out, and I will continue to add updates in two days~
