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

[How much money can I make from a video with 10 million views on station B?]

Liu Lang searched in the browser with great interest while snorting instant noodles.

What he is concerned about now is not whether he is popular or not, but how much the video he makes can return on his cost.

So far, his entire net worth has been invested in this sci-fi short film.

Next month's rent is still unsettled.

If he can't recoup his investment, it won't be long before he goes to sleep on the street.

However, the answers found on the Internet disappointed him.

For a video with tens of millions of views, the comprehensive income is only 20,000 or 30,000, and the maximum is only 50,000.

What really makes money is the advertising promotion that follows when the number of fans is high, as well as all kinds of income from bringing goods.

Liu Lang frowned and opened his creator background.

Although the account has only been created for less than a day, there is only one video under the account.

But with the popularity of the sci-fi short film [Space Elevator Battle], the number of followers of his account quickly climbed to 300,000.

Do you really want to pick up those shoddy web game advertisements that 'if you are a brother, come and cut me'

? Or do you want to bring goods and sell those fake and shoddy goods?

Liu Lang sighed, these are not what he wants.

What's more, these incomes will not be counted in the video revenue at all, and the corresponding points cannot be obtained, so it will not help him to obtain movie black technology.

It took a huge amount of money to shoot the live-action film of The Wandering Earth.

Liu Lang thought about it, and only the black technology in the movie could solve the problem of funding for filming the movie for himself.

But now my problem is how to get the first pot of gold from making videos, so as to exchange for those black technologies.

。

'Buzz~'

At this moment, the mobile phone vibrated and sounded.

"Hey, is it Mr. Liu from Liu Lang's studio

?" "Well, who are you?" "

Hello Mr. Liu, I am the person in charge of the Guochuang Zone of Station B, and I contacted you through the station message before, but you did not reply, so I had to contact you through the mobile phone number in the information.

Liu Lang opened his creator background, and sure enough, he found that there were several station messages in a bunch of 99+ prompt notifications.

"May I ask if that sci-fi short film [Space Elevator Battle] you uploaded is an original work from your studio?"

"Yes, that's right. "

That's right, after the review of our national innovation zone, we unanimously agreed to select the works of your studio and recommend them to participate in this year's [Starlight Award] selection... Hearing

this, Liu Lang's mind immediately became active.

The bonus income after the video wins the award will also be counted as points.

"Ahem, that. . . If you win the award, there will be a bonus, right?"

Hearing Liu Lang's words, Liu Zetao, the person in charge of the Guochuang District, was stunned on the other end of the phone.

To be able to produce CG animation with such excellent special effects, the level of this kind of studio is definitely the top existence in China.

With the level of special effects of [Space Elevator Battle], the average production cost is estimated to be at least a few thousand dollars a second.

This is still less to say, if there are a little more discarded special effects shots, the production cost will have to soar to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of seconds.

Fifteen minutes is nine hundred seconds, plus labor costs, loss of machinery and equipment, etc., Liu Zetao guessed that the other party spent at least 10 million dollars on this short film.

In contrast, the [Starlight Award] is an internationally renowned science fiction award.

But as a sci-fi short film with a duration of only 15 minutes, [Space Elevator Battle] can only compete for the award of 'Best Sci-Fi Short Film'.

Even if you do win a prize, it will only be a few hundred thousand dollars.

This bonus is a drop in the bucket compared to the production cost.

Liu Zetao believes that a studio that can produce such a sophisticated sci-fi short film as [Space Elevator Battle] will never care about the hundreds of thousands.

"You're kidding, the amount of prize money is very small, that's not the point, the point is the honor of the Starlight Award!

As the world's most well-known and authoritative science fiction award.

For so many years, let alone our dragon country.

Even any Chinese have never been shortlisted, if we can be shortlisted, we will make history!"

Liu Zetao said excitedly, he has brought himself into Liu Lang's studio and become 'us'.

The short film of [Space Elevator Battle] is so well produced that Liu Zetao, the person in charge of the National Innovation Zone, is amazed.

Several judges met and unanimously decided in just a few minutes to give the [Starlight Award] recommendation and selection qualification of this year's station B to Liu Lang's studio works.

Let it represent Chinese science fiction works to participate in this year's [Starlight Awards] selection.

With the quality of the short film production of [Space Elevator Battle], Liu Zetao feels that this is the most promising attempt for Dragon Kingdom's works over the years.

It is also another unremitting effort by the people of Longguo to break the monopoly of Western science fiction.

The hope and significance it represents is significant, but Liu Lang can't resonate for a while.

Come on, he has no rent for next month, and he can only eat instant noodles for three meals, how can he have any ambition to chase the world's highest science fiction honor award?

So after hearing that the prize money was 'minimal', Liu Lang suddenly lost any interest.

After agreeing to the person in charge of the national innovation zone on the phone, he handed over the other party to handle the selection of the award and no longer paid attention to it.

。

After shopping around the Internet, Liu Lang did not gain nothing.

At least know that the videos you make should have an income of tens of thousands of yuan next month.

Although this point of points can't be exchanged for any movie black technology for himself.

But at least you don't have to worry about not having money to pay your rent and being kicked out by your landlord to sleep on the street.

Is it to make CG short films to make money, or to take advertisements and bring goods?

Liu Lang hesitated for a while.

If it weren't for the system-assisted film production capabilities, it could only be used in the film and television dramas led by itself, and I am afraid that a special effects outsourcing studio could also make a lot of money.

Scratching his head, Liu Lang decided to ignore these and go and hand over his graduation work to the school first.

After a few days of fermentation over the weekend, the [Space Elevator Battle] has caused a lot of heat on the Internet.

[Best Sci-Fi Short Film

of the Year!] [I announce that the level of special effects production in China has reached the world-class echelon!

] [It turns out that there are really people working hard for the science fiction of the Dragon Kingdom, tears] [

I am an industry person, responsibly speaking, although this short film is only 15 minutes, the cost is at least more than 10 million, and the special effects CG animation is a money-burning project.

The producer will definitely not be able to recover the investment, Dragon Kingdom Science Fiction has a long way to go]

Station B, Tieba, Weibo and other major online platforms, in the face of the emergence of [Space Elevator Battle], most of them expressed their approval.

Although Dragon Kingdom Science Fiction has hardly developed substantially over the years, this does not mean that everyone has no expectations for the future.

The production level of science fiction movies is often linked to a country's comprehensive strength and military strength.

The science fiction movies of the United States are sold all over the world in Hollywood's powerful film industry system and military hegemony, spreading Mi-style values.

For so many years, everyone has seen it, but there is no good way to deal with it.

The appearance of [Space Elevator Battle] is like that spark.

Although it can't change the situation of science fiction in Dragon Kingdom, it at least brings hope to people.
