Chapter 435: No choice


Indeed, more than a decade ago, not to mention film and television adaptation copyrights, even the Chinese film market itself was not well developed. At that time, who would have thought that movie box office would skyrocket to a billion or billions of dollars? Moreover, there was no concept of big IP back then, a very good work, sometimes tens of thousands of dollars can be won at most hundreds of thousands.
Up to now, with the rapid development of the film market, coupled with some capital and media hype, some of the more well-known IP film and television adaptation copyright fees have reached hundreds of thousands or even millions, and the most terrifying may even be tens of millions. .
And this phenomenon actually has a growing trend!
Under the stimulus of the movie market, the prices of many well-known IPs have been fired up to sky-high prices. Not only are the literary works, but even some games, toys, comics, etc., all kinds of IP copyrights that can be developed have been given some capital. Focus on it, and this phenomenon may continue for some time.
Under such a general situation, writers like Tian Ming and others who sold the film and television copyrights of their works long ago have suffered a lot.
However, the market is like this. The original copyright fees of hundreds of thousands were actually considered high prices, but who would have thought that today's prices will become so crazy?
Tian Ming could only break his teeth and swallow in his stomach.
Fortunately, he still maintains excellent creativity until now. Although the film and television adaptations of his previous works no longer belong to him, he can write more other new works. Moreover, because of the accumulation of so many years of time and fame, now his The creative value is already very high.
Just like the "Deep Space Trek" that he led the screenwriter, the movie box office has achieved more than one billion box office results, and he himself has received a very good screenwriting income, and "Deep Space Trek" has also begun to publish movies of the same name. It is also possible to make games, etc., for full copyright development.
For Tian Ming, this can be regarded as being compensated by another aspect of the market.
...
Although Chen Feng doesn't know much about some IPs in this world, in the dream world, he has also experienced the so-called big IP development for a period of time, movies, TV series, web series, etc. Many film and television projects try to focus on this. To create a so-called well-known IP, relying on the popularity of the IP plus a few traffic star actors is like sitting on the ground and attracting money.
However, many such attempts were ultimately unsuccessful, and then the craze for big IP began to recede, and the film and television industry slowly recovered its calm.
Although some good-quality IPs can still be sold at high prices, few people use the original IP+traffic gameplay to fool the market.
Because you fool the market, the market will eventually respond to you cruelly.
And now, in this world, this kind of operation of developing big IP is just getting started, and it is estimated that it will continue to rise in a short period of time. However, as a past person, Chen Feng, because of some experience in this area, is not optimistic about this. This phenomenon.
On the contrary, like Tian Ming, although his old works have not caught up with the good times, he is still actively creating new works and directly participating in the work of film screenwriters. This model should be better.
...
At the dinner, with Wu Hengjiang’s deliberate mediation, the atmosphere quickly became enthusiastic. After all, everyone is a peer. They have a lot of thoughts about current Chinese movies, especially science fiction movies, and they talk about speculation when they come and go.
Chen Feng is also very interested in several topics discussed by everyone. As Wu Hengjiang said, science fiction movies are the general trend of the future development of the film industry, and he can't help but pay attention to this.
Moreover, as the box office of the introduced film "Escape from Mother Star" is getting higher and higher, everyone will have some ideas more or less.
One of the most aggrieved is Tian Ming.
"Oh, "Escape from Mother Star" is actually just the oldest routine. It just changed the background to planets and space. Such themes have long been written by our science fiction writers, and no one is rare now. Write this kind of stuff, but...the foreigner shoots it out and can still get a good box office. This is really..."
For a while, Tian Ming couldn't think of a suitable word to describe this feeling.
Wu Hengjiang quickly comforted him.
"Yes, Mr. Tian, ​​I have seen those works you wrote many years ago, and they are much better than the storyline of "Escape from Mother Star". Actually, we really have a lot of better things, but it's a pity for the time being. The reason cannot be developed... However, we are no worse than anyone in screenwriting or story writing!"
Fang Cheng nodded repeatedly beside him.
Even the two foreigners showed admiration.
One of them named Mike directly spoke out his thoughts.
"I think so too... I have seen many of your works over the years... The imagination is very rich, even the ancient gods and demons are wonderful, I admire your culture very much..."
Another person next to him named James also responded.
"I have also seen some of Mr. Tian's works, and some of them deeply shocked me!"
Mike and James undertake some projects overseas all the year round. They are very talented in language and they are also proficient in Chinese, so everyone can communicate easily.
Chen Feng is also very interested in these two foreigners, because it is rare to see foreign special effects companies come here to develop so actively.
In his impression, some companies in Haolaiwu are very secretive about their own technology. If you cooperate with them, it is not only expensive, but it is also difficult to really participate in the production team of others, such as Mike and James. There are really few people.
In fact, Mike and James are also helpless. Their company performance at Hao Laiwu is really poor ~ EbookFREE.me ~ can only find a way to take over some other places of business to maintain operations.
Moreover, although their technology is not as good as those of the real large-scale special effects companies in Hao Laiwu, relatively speaking, they are indeed much better than many other places. In addition, they have always been with the aura of Hao Laiwu, so, In some places overseas, it is easier for them to make money.
Although their behavior is completely despised in Haolaiwu, and they may even be kicked out of Haolaiwu's film industry ecosystem in the near future, there is no way, making money to survive is the most important thing, and they have nothing else. select.
Chen Feng listened with great interest to Mike, James, Wu Hengjiang, Tian Ming and Fang Cheng discussing some industry inside stories about science fiction film production, which involved many secret stories from Hao Laiwu, everyone heard It's all interesting.
For example, for a film like "Escape from Mother Star", if it is a movie produced locally by Hao Laiwu, the related special effects production costs may only be tens of millions, but if this is a work produced by Hao Laiwu, then The same company, the same special effects, the related costs may be hundreds of millions!
This phenomenon is just a drop in the ocean!
