Honkai Impact: Join anti-entropy at the beginning to dominate the entertainment industry

While World Snake is in full swing preparing for the first-level announcement, Cao Dawei has finally completed all the filming tasks.

"It's done!"

After the last scene was completed, everyone cheered.

The cost of this movie is very small, the selection and arrangement of scene props are relatively simple, and the actors are in relatively good condition, so everyone shot it relatively quickly, and it was over in more than a month. To be precise, it was That’s more than forty days.

The film's director, Cao Dawei, is also very hard-working, sometimes even working for more than 20 hours, and then resting for four to five hours to continue filming.

It can be seen that Cao Dawei really put a lot of effort into this movie.

Only some more post-production will be carried out before the film is truly finished.

But at this time, Cao Dawei found Bai Qianqu privately.

He got straight to the point.

"We're out of money."

Bai Qianqu: "..."

Cao Dawei was a little embarrassed and scratched his head: "I have tried my best to keep the budget down, but there will always be some unexpected situations... In short, the entire crew now only has 10,000 yuan left... Completely It’s not enough for post-production.”

"So I'm looking for you to ask you to come forward, talk to President Otto, and increase the budget. After all, he is quite satisfied with you."

When Bai Qianqu heard that she was going to see Otto, she felt extremely reluctant.

He thought for a moment and asked, "How much money is still missing?"

Cao Dawei smiled bitterly and said: "There are still hundreds of thousands missing."

Bai Qianqu nodded, and then said: "I can pay this money."

Before Cao Dawei could speak, Bai Qianqu continued: "But I also have a request. If possible, I am willing to pay 6 million to buy out this movie."

Hearing this, Cao Dawei was stunned.

A series of question marks appeared above his head.

Destiny will provide the money and effort to make the movie, and then directly pay you to buy it out?

Why do you feel like Tianming is working for Bai Qianqu?

But soon, Cao Dawei changed his mind.

Three million investment, and then Bai Qianqu spent six million to acquire it?

Direct income of three million?

200% return?

It seems like you are making a lot of money?

Cao Dawei actually didn't have much confidence in this movie. Although it was a joy to shoot, he was really unsure whether it would become popular after it was released.

After all, he has never shot a movie like this before.

Even if it's filmed, he can't 100% guarantee that the movie will make money.

Not only was the cost small, the actors were not well-known, and the script was written by a new screenwriter.

With so many DEBUFFs superimposed, it is a miracle that it can become popular.

Therefore, Cao Dawei's current expectations are relatively low. As long as the movie can recover its cost or even make a small profit, he will be satisfied.

At least in this way, he can be regarded as completing Otto's mission and can hand over the work.

He couldn't even imagine 200% of his income!

Unexpectedly, Bai Qianqu was now willing to pay so much money himself.

Cao Dawei was actually a little moved at this time.

Brother Bai is still a real person.

good man!

He was moved and said quickly: "Of course I have no opinion on this matter, but I still want to ask the superiors for instructions. Please wait for a few minutes and I will communicate."

Soon, Otto learned about this.

He was stunned for a moment.

He is also concerned about this movie. Although it does have laughs, it does not cost much, many scenes are rough, and the actors are not well-known and almost all are grassroots.

Can a movie like this make money?

Otto also felt that a big question mark was needed.

He and Cao Dawei have the same idea, as long as they don't lose money.

Now that he heard that Bai Qianqu actually paid 6 million to buy this movie, Otto was also very surprised.

He didn't think much and quickly agreed.

Cao Dawei immediately came back and told Bai Qianqu the news.

Bai Qianqu showed a satisfied smile and successfully pocketed "Crazy Stone".

Cao Dawei also showed a satisfied smile, because Bai Qianqu signed the contract on the spot and planned to add 6.2 million to the crew's account.

The extra two hundred thousand was used for post-production.

Cao Dawei quickly refused, saying that six million would be enough.

He felt that he had already taken advantage of Bai Qianqu and could no longer be greedy.

So Bai Qianqu only spent 6 million, saving 200,000.

With sufficient funds, Cao Dawei regained his confidence and quickly completed the later stage.

Everyone in the crew gathered together and watched it carefully as the first audience of "Crazy Stone".

I have to say that although the actors in the movie have changed, the movie still has the same familiar flavor.

At least in Bai Qianqu's eyes, this movie has a high degree of restoration and has all the funny points it should have.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw the funny part, and they were very happy to watch the whole process.

After watching the movie, Cao Dawei couldn't wait to submit the movie for review. As long as it passes the review, it can be officially released.

But soon, Cao Dawei encountered another problem——

Movie release options.

You must know that if a movie wants to be released, it doesn’t just have to be filmed, it also needs to be approved by the theater chain. If the theater chain does not approve it, then your movie will not be released in major movie theaters.

This requires some connections. As a senior director, Cao Dawei naturally has some connections.

What's more, this movie is produced by Tianming, and major theaters will also provide some convenience.

After all, Destiny is the largest film and television company in the world.

This is the advantage of big companies making movies. Not only do they have abundant funds and outstanding actors, but they also have a wide range of connections. If Bai Qianqu only organized the filming of this movie, even if he finished filming, he would not be able to find a cinema. Released.

Major theater chains are also companies, and in front of the company, the power of individuals is very small.

There is a high probability that people will not like a low-budget movie like "Crazy Stone". Even if they like it, they will offer a buyout clause.

Therefore, many small film crews and directors are in a difficult situation.

This movie was shot by Destiny, and there should have been no problem in releasing it in theaters.

But a problem arises.

When the major theaters heard that this was a low-budget film, they were a little unhappy, and many shied away. Only one theater said that it was willing to accept the film for the sake of Tianming and Cao Dawei.

However, the current schedule is already fully booked, and it will not be until July at the earliest.

Cao Dawei directly put on the mask of pain.

"July is the summer vacation, and all the schools are on vacation. During the summer vacation, the competition in the film market is very fierce... If our small-budget film rashly joins in, I'm afraid there won't even be any scum left in the end."
