Is it reasonable for me to build a space elevator when filming The Wandering Earth?

After waiting for two days, Liu Zetao finally came again with a new offer from Station B.

"The company agreed to give up the copyright of [Moonfall Crisis] and was willing to increase the original purchase price of 500w to 800w. Hearing

Liu Zetao's new version of the offer, Liu Lang was not very excited, but felt a little confused.

As the other party said, Station B is a listed company, the capital market is cruel, and Station B, which has huge revenue pressure, cannot make such a big concession in such a short period of time.

Sure enough, Liu Zetao's face was a little embarrassed and continued.

"But they have a request, they want to sign a long-term contract with you. "

"Long-term contract?"

" is to produce two CG anime dramas with a total of no less than 60 episodes for Station B after [Moonfall Crisis].

The script, the investment is specified by the company, and the requirements are not able to exceed the budget and the scheduled delivery date. "

[Space Elevator Battle] and [Moonfall Crisis] are well-made, and the high-level executives of Station B can see it.

And Liu Lang also has the identity of the Starlight Award for Best Short Film Producer.

In the production of special effects CG animation, there is no doubt that it is already the top existence in the Dragon Country.

The high-level directors of Station B valued the level of Liu Lang's special effects CG production, and the concession to the offer of [Moon Fall Crisis] was mainly to find a 'cheap' director and production team for the next two anime series.

After all, the majority of the company's revenue is mainly to watch long-form anime series.

A fiery anime series can add a lot of color to the data on the company's financial statements.

This is the real attitude of the capital company towards the individual production team.

As

long as Liu Lang's works fail to show commercial value in the market, they can only be regarded as cheap labor in the eyes of capital.

The script, the investment is specified by the other party, and the budget and deadline for delivery are also specified.

Once Liu Lang agreed, he completely fell into a passive situation.

What's more, he is still busy preparing for his "The Wandering Earth", how can he have extra time to help others produce two feature-length anime dramas?

" "This is the sincerity of your company?"

Liu Lang was a little disappointed, he still had some feelings for Station B, after all, his first work became popular here.

Being able to win the Starlight Award also has a lot to do with Liu Zetao, the relevant person in charge.

But the quotation of station B is full of calculations from beginning to end, you must know that according to the market price, the production cost of Liu Lang's two sci-fi short films will not be less than 10 million.

Even so, Station B's offer can only be given to 800w, and he is also ready to tie up a long-term contract with Liu Lang and let him produce two feature-length anime dramas for the company.

All kinds of behaviors reveal a businessman-like shrewd little family spirit.

The other party is sure that Liu Langkong has a technology (special effects CG animation production), and there is no channel to monetize sci-fi short films such as [Space Elevator Battle] and "Moonfall Crisis".

That's why I will continue to test Liu Lang's psychological offer, trying to let Liu Lang serve Station B at the lowest price.

"If I agree, I'm afraid I'll have to work for Station B for a year or two in the future.

If the anime series I shoot becomes popular, I can only get a dead salary.

If you pounce and lose, you have to be the one who carries the black pot. With

the negotiation attitude and sincerity of Station B, Liu Lang did not hesitate to guess the other party with the greatest malice, and the other party is very likely to really do this kind of thing.

。

"Alas. . .

Liu Zetao sighed, and he didn't know how to reply to Liu Lang.

The capital market is cruel and profit-seeking, whether it is special effects CG animation or science fiction films, they all discourage the Dragon Kingdom film and television industry because of the high threshold and high cost.

Over time, science fiction films and television have almost disappeared in the local market of Dragon Country.

Every year, I can only watch various foreign special effects blockbusters bombarding the Dragon Country market, and there is no one enemy.

If it weren't for the fig leaf of 'Domestic Film Protection Month', the film and television industry of the Dragon Kingdom would have been in ruins long ago.

But just relying on those 'self-entertaining' romance films and comedies, there is no way to break out of the country and go to the world.

Only science fiction films can represent the true strength of a country's film industry.

Those movies that have swept the world and harvested the box office of countries around the world: Titanic, Avatar, The Avengers.

Almost all of them are sci-fi special effects blockbusters.

Liu Zetao devoted himself to this industry with enthusiasm, thinking of changing the situation through his own efforts.

However, reality is like a basin of cold water constantly pouring on his head.

The company would rather spend a lot of money to bring in foreign animation and television dramas than take the risk of investing in local creators in Dragon Country.

Under his painstaking recommendation, the offer of 800w to Liu Lang is already a ceiling-level offer that local creators can get at station B.

"To be honest, I think it's sad that 1.4 billion people can't cultivate a market that can accommodate science fiction films.

Liu Zetao didn't seem to care about the task given to him by the company to persuade Liu Lang, so he chatted with Liu Lang.

In the years that he has been at station B, he has seen too many fans who are crazy about traffic stars, and in this Dragon Kingdom film and television circle, which is almost occupied by various large and small traffic stars, he can't see the hope of Dragon Kingdom science fiction films.

"Maybe the market has always been there, but there are no good works. Liu

Lang, who witnessed the science fiction breakthrough work "The Wandering Earth" in the Dragon Kingdom in his previous life, is much more optimistic than Liu Zetao.

"Hopefully I'll see that day again.

By the way, this may be the last time we'll see each other.

I'm ready to quit.

"Resign?!"

Liu Lang was stunned, he didn't expect Liu Zetao, who was already a senior manager of Station B, to choose to leave.

"That's it for Station B, if I stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll become the person I used to hate.

While I'm young, I want to try again.

Although Liu Zetao didn't say what he wanted to try, Liu Lang could also guess that it must be a product related to science fiction and entertainment in the Dragon Kingdom.

When he received the [Starlight Award] on behalf of Liu Lang, Liu Zetao's love for science fiction did not seem to be acting at all.

"That long contract really can't be signed, it's likely to be a 'deed of sale', it's gold that will always shine, I believe someone will always know the goods.

After Liu Zetao left advice, he slowly left.

Liu Lang is not ready to sell his works cheaply, and after postponing the release of the video, he put his energy into writing the short story "The Wandering Earth".

He plans to let "The Wandering Earth" meet the audience in the form of words before making a live-action movie.

Just when Liu Lang was busy coding words, an unexpected phone call hit his mobile phone.

"Mr. Liu, I'm the director of entertainment strategy of ByteDance Group, are you interested in chatting?"
