Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chapter 1110 Xiujuan's Feelings

After hearing Chen Changan's words, Zhu Ling's eyes lit up.

She has always known that Chen Changan has many ideas and is reliable.

If I could give her a good idea, she would not have to breathe secondhand smoke from those people at work every day.

"Really? Tell me what the solution is?"

“The car factory has so much money in its account that it doesn’t know what to do with it.

The benefits provided to workers now are already high enough. If the treatment is increased further, the leaders of other sister units will have objections.

Today, the development of the automobile factory has come to an end, and there are only a few vacant factory buildings.

We have nowhere to put the production line we want to introduce, and the money is just sitting there anyway, so why not invest it in your filming of Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

"Is this okay?"

"What's wrong with that? I'm still the director of the car factory.

Even if I lose money, who can say anything to me about this as it does not affect the normal operation of the factory?

At worst, we can just consider it as supporting our fraternal units. As long as the people of the country enjoy watching it, it's worth it."

"Is the car factory really rich? Can it come up with hundreds of millions of dollars?"

"What are you thinking? We definitely can't let the car factory come to the filming base.

When the time comes, I will tell Xiujuan and ask him to come to the mainland to find a place and let the entertainment company pay to build a film and television base.

With the reform and opening up, televisions began to become popular in thousands of households.

In the future, there will be more and more TV series and movies.

But whether you are shooting a TV series or a movie, you need a shooting location.

Asking an entertainment company to invest in building a filming location is not a one-time thing; this is a large-scale, comprehensive film and television base.

It can receive tourists for visits and also receive various film crews, but all of these are charged.

It can be used as both a scenic spot and a filming base. So many people need to feed them, right? There's a lot of money to be made here.

By then, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms crew won't have to spend a penny, just help with advertising and promotion, and wouldn't the venue problem be solved?"

"This is a good idea. It doesn't hurt the entertainment company, and the crew doesn't have to worry about venues and funding.

In this case, the only one who will suffer is the automobile factory. As the director of the automobile factory, you have invested tens of millions, so won't the automobile factory suffer losses?

Tell me what other conditions you have, and state them clearly so I can bring this up at the meeting tomorrow."

Chen Changan smiled and said.

“Our car factory’s requirements are not high. in the country, the copyright belongs entirely to you.

Whether it is the central station or the local station, it is up to you to decide whether to broadcast it or how many times to broadcast it.

However, if it involves overseas copyright income, then it will all belong to our car manufacturer, what do you think?"

After hearing what Chen Changan said, Zhu Ling looked confused.

The so-called Four Great Classics are only famous in China. Outside of China, people don’t recognize them at all.

As for TV dramas, China has always spent money to introduce other people's TV dramas.

Some cartoons and movies are mostly imported from other countries.

So far, there are very few TV series in our country that have sold overseas copyrights.

That is to say, "Journey to the West", which is also one of the four great classics, has sold some copyrights one after another.

But the response can only be described as average, and the price is not very high.

Compared to the millions of dollars spent on "Journey to the West", it is still possible to recover the costs, but compared to the tens of millions of dollars spent on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is really a fantasy to want to recover the costs by relying on overseas copyrights.

"Tell me, do you really think that Romance of the Three Kingdoms can recoup its costs solely through overseas copyrights?"

"I've already said that recovering our costs would be the best. If we can't, we'll just consider it as supporting our sister company. The car factory has more money in its account than we can spend anyway."

"I do not believe."

"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."

Looking at Chen Changan's confident face, Zhu Ling felt that Chen Changan must not be telling the truth.

"Will you tell me or not? If not, you'll sleep on the sofa tonight."

When he heard that he was going to sleep on the sofa, the confident smile on Chen Changan's face immediately disappeared.

"Isn't it?"

"So are you going to tell me or not? If not, go sleep on the sofa."

“Okay, okay, I said not yet, but I’m just guessing.

Compared with several other famous works, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has a very large audience in neighboring countries, especially in ordinary countries.

In daily life, many people think that as long as they have read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", they can lead troops to fight.

Many people, even some military officers, highly praised this book, especially Lu Bu, who was known as the most powerful warrior in the Three Kingdoms period.

So I think that after the filming of this TV series is completed, it may really be purchased by Xiao Rizi at a high price.

In Southeast Asia, which is also our cultural circle, I am also full of expectations for this TV series.

Of course, these are just guesses. Maybe you can make money, maybe you can lose money.

But who cares? Even if I lose money, it won’t be much. I’ll just consider it an investment.”

When Zhu Ling heard that the Japanese highly praised Lu Bu, the "slave of three surnames", she looked disdainful.

"They ignore figures like Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Zhuge Liang, but only praise Lu Bu. Their life is really not a good one."

Sure enough, women’s focus is different from men’s. Now that I have explained myself, shouldn’t I focus on whether I can recover my costs through overseas copyrights?

Why did the focus shift to Xiao Rizu liking the character of Lu Bu?

"So, tonight?"

Zhu Ling rolled her eyes at Chen Changan and then said.

"You're in luck tonight."

. . .

The next morning, Chen Changan just arrived at the office and called Xiujuan.

The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and when Xiujuan comes back, Chen Changan plans to have a good talk with her about this matter.

A film and television base can be said to be a one-time investment with basically no subsequent expenses except for maintenance costs.

In the future, whether Xiujuan is filming a TV series or a movie, she will also have a place to shoot.

After receiving a call from Chen Changan, Xiujuan arrived in Sijiu City a few days later.

Xiujuan was very interested in what Chen Changan told her about the film and television city on the phone.

Just as Chen Changan said, the market potential for movies and TV series is huge.

There will be more and more film and television dramas being shot in the future. Although building a film and television city requires huge initial investment, it will be a net profit in the end.

Standing in front of the airport, looking at the city covered in snow, Xiujuan felt a little emotional.

The last time I came to Beijing, I was arrested.

This time when they came to Sijiu City, not only Director Zou, but even the former Director Wu was transferred.

Her eldest brother's position is getting higher and higher, and her idea of ​​persuading her eldest brother to go to Hong Kong Island with her is probably going to fail.
