Chapter 109: One hundred million is not difficult, right?
Chen Fan tapped the table a few times, and immediately made a decision.

"The "Miracle Boy" project is established. In my opinion, the most important thing about this movie is the little boy, so the first thing to do is to cast the little boy. When a suitable young actor is found, we will issue a notice to the society and recruit other actors! "

"I will inject capital into the company when the time comes. This kind of low-cost film will not raise funds from the outside for the time being."

This is a moderate choice, and since the boss has made the decision, others naturally have no objections.

At this time, executive director Yan Hong and props team leader Li Ye also took a good look at the script.

"Mr. Chen, I have watched some science fiction movies. Now I will tell you my understanding of this movie. Do you think I am right?"

Yan Hong was dressed a little rough, her hair was a little messy, and the clothes on her body were simple and cheap.

If they didn't know that this woman was under thirty, people would think she was a middle-aged aunt when they first saw her.

At this time, her expression was a little hesitant. Obviously, it was the first time she had seen the plot of a movie like "Terminator".

"This movie tells that the future Dragon Kingdom is ruled by robots. They want to exterminate the human race. However, at that time, the leader of the human race rose up and resisted, so a robot was ordered to go back to 2009 and kill the leader's mother. The birth of a leader."

"After the leader learned about it, he also sent someone back to rescue the leader's mother. Then this person finally fell in love with the leader's mother and made the leader's mother pregnant with the leader."

"Mr. Chen, am I right?"

Chen Fan nodded when he heard the words. It seems that Yan Hong understood the script, but seeing how she made such a fuss, could it be that she has never heard of this kind of story of traveling back to the past before?

Yan Hong was confirmed at this time, but her expression was a little exaggerated.

"Mr. Chen, this script is very interesting, but don't you think the plot is a bit nonsense? If a robot goes back to the past and kills people to change the future, wouldn't the world be messed up?"

"And the leader turned out to be the child of a man from the future who went back to the past and his mother. If the leader had not sent this person back to the past, does that mean that the future leader would not have been born?"

"..."

Yan Hong talked a lot, and Li Ye on the side sometimes suddenly realized, sometimes frowned and thought hard. It was obvious that there was something wrong, and he had just discovered it.

Chen Fan patted his hands a few times. He didn't expect this sloppy woman to be a fan of sci-fi theory. Even after the previous life movie has been aired for decades, people still ask these questions.

"Director Liao, you are right, but you have to understand that we are making movies, not doing theoretical research."

"Especially in sci-fi movies, the content produced only provides an idea of ​​a certain scientific knowledge point, or a guess about the result. He can't explain anything, as long as the audience enjoys watching it."

"Some of your questions just now may also be the questions of many movie fans, but this does not prevent us from making this movie perfectly, does it?"

"As for the last questions about these logic aspects, let the fans take the initiative to discuss it!"

"Now our question is, is this movie worth making!"

As soon as Chen Fan's words fell, Song De and Zhu Juchuan, who had roughly turned over the script, nodded their heads again and again.

"Mr. Chen, this movie must be made!"

"At present, there are no sci-fi movies of this kind in China, especially the fighting is still so fierce. As long as we shoot him, it will definitely shock the entire Longguo film world."

"And this script is full of factors that make a movie successful, such as storytelling, heroes, controversy, blockbuster special effects, sci-fi themes..."

"So we have to shoot!"

At this time, Zhu Juchuan was obviously more excited than he had just seen "Miracle Boy". He quickly explained the advantages of this script, lest the speed was too slow, and the film would not be able to be filmed.

The screenwriter Song De on the side also kept nodding,
"Mr. Chen, it is the dream of all screenwriters to write the theme of "Terminator" and make it, and sci-fi films have always been the weakness of our Dragon Kingdom. If we can make this movie, Dragon Kingdom's The sci-fi film career is bound to rise to a higher level!"

"Screenwriter Song, Producer Zhu, this script is good, and I want to make it too, but have you ever thought about it, this movie is not suitable for us to make at the moment!"

Yan Hong was obviously also worried that Chen Fan would make a decision directly, so she stopped Zhu Juchuan who were a little excited.

"The last movie I filmed with my teacher Luka was "Feng Shen Bang". Don't look at the box office of this movie exceeding 7000 million yuan, but his actual investment is already more than [-] million yuan, of which the special effects alone cost Sixty-seventy million."

"As for this Terminator, if we shoot with our heart, special effects must also be required. I estimate that the cost of special effects alone may cost 4000 to [-] million."

"Combined with other investments, the cost of this film is likely to reach more than 5000 million. The cost alone is so high. For a new company like ours that is not well-known, it is completely a gamble. I think the current It’s not time to gamble yet!”

Yan Hong obviously discussed the film from the company's point of view.

After hearing this, Chen Fan felt a little strange and surprised. He stared at Yan Hong and asked, "You said the investment for this movie is 5000 million?"

Yan Hong nodded,

"Mr. Chen, this is just a rough estimate by me. In reality, it is likely to exceed this figure. At that time, when the publicity costs for distribution, box office share, etc. are added, if the box office does not exceed [-] million yuan, this movie will lose money!"

"Don't worry about the box office. Let's estimate the box office of this movie. Are you sure that 6000 to [-] million is enough?"

Yan Hong's heart trembled, what does this boss mean?Listen to this tone, is it too little?

At this moment, Li Ye, the head of the props group, spoke,

"Mr. Chen, my estimate just now is similar to Director Liao's. Five to sixty million yuan should be enough."

"Okay, so if you don't consider the cost, is this movie worth making?"

Chen Fan looked straight at Yan Hong. Regarding this movie, it was difficult to come to a disagreement just now, which was beyond his expectation.

However, the support of Zhu Juchuan and Song De made him feel that this movie should still be popular in the Longguo market.

Liao Fang was silent for a moment. To be honest, she knew very well whether this movie was good or not. As an executive director, if she had the opportunity to participate in the filming of this movie, she would still be very excited.

It's just that when she left Nanami Films and came to Shengtang Entertainment, she didn't mean to be independent.

But although Yan Hong is an executive director, her nature is kind-hearted. She doesn't want this movie to bring down her new company.

But now, hearing what Chen Fan said, without considering the cost...

"Mr. Chen, I have to say that this movie is also very attractive to me. Without considering the cost, I certainly think it can be made. I even hope that Mr. Chen will let me participate in it."

"But as I am responsible for the company, I think investing 6000 to [-] million to make a science fiction blockbuster is really a gamble."

"You should know that in the current box office records of domestic movies, there are only three movies with a box office record of more than [-] million yuan. "Alinda" ranked first, "Fengshen Bang" ranked second, and "Shaolin Temple" four years ago..."

Speaking of this, Yan Hong was slightly taken aback, she suddenly remembered that Mr. Chen in front of her seemed to be the leading actor of Shaolin Temple, and he was only a 15-year-old boy at that time.

Shaking her head, she continued: "Although the movie market in Longguo has been growing, I'm really not sure if this movie will have a box office of more than [-] million!"

Chen Fan was slightly taken aback, Yan Hong took out the data, which made him quite agree and moved.

I didn't expect that there were only three films in Dragon Kingdom with a box office of over [-] million, and I don't know if Terminator will be the fourth.

"Okay, as long as you also think this movie is a good movie, then you don't have to worry about the cost."

"In the past two days, find someone to estimate the cost of "Terminator". If it is less than 6000 million, we will officially set up the project and shoot it!"

At this time, Chen Fan also had to seek stability. Before, his idea was to spend all his money to make this movie.

But at this time, he suddenly felt that there is no need to be too blind in doing things. After all, the road is still long and the company has just started, so there is no harm in being safe.

And the investment cost of 6000 million was still within his psychological expectations. It shouldn't be difficult for such a rare good film in China, and a film that has been proven in previous lives, to exceed [-] million at the box office, right?
