To compare with Versailles, sometimes it is quite boring to survive the rebirth. There is money everywhere in front of you.

Some of them are obvious at a glance, just like other reborn bastards, buying courtyard houses, buying antiques, buying monkey tickets, buying bull stocks...

The same is true here with Li Yuan. He can give his uncle a chance to drink from a slap on the head.

Some are just on the right path, avoiding all trial and error costs. For example, the Haechi system was successfully created, Yeshan Qingquan's cool operation was listed, the film library was acquired, etc. I don't need to do anything more at all, the money seems to be

It will come rolling in.

Back to the movie project, it was "Two Smoking Barrels".

The 1 million promotional fee is actually the cost of pretentious travel for two silly girls to major film festivals. This expense cannot be included in the calculation. The real production cost should be around 2 million.

However, now there are friendly sponsors from Zhang Xi and Li Rusong, which is 400,000. The number of product placements is expected to be around five. Anyway, they are advertisers of Yequan Cinema, so it should be easy to fool them. Considering the film placement

Advertising is still a new thing, so let’s be conservative and consider it 100,000!

The other is the guaranteed income from the film library.

In terms of company management, Metaverse Film Company and Metaverse Copyright Management Company are actually two companies. They operate independently and are responsible for their own profits and losses.

Regarding the division of equity, Li Yuan personally holds 50% of the equity of Yuanverse Copyright Management Company, and the other 50% is held by Yuanverse Film Company.

Therefore, when the film company completes the production of a movie, the copyright management company will pay a guaranteed income of 1 million. And the future copyright operation income, that is, the copyright income two years after the public release, those are the income of the copyright management company, so

It has nothing to do with the movie company.

Although these are companies controlled by Li Yuan, they still have to abide by the Company Law.

The truth is actually the same. Just like the advertisements in Yequan Cinema. Even though Yeshan Qingquan and Tangzun Liquor are both Li Yuan's companies, they still have to pay advertising fees to the copyright management company every time they make an advertisement.

At this point, through a simple calculation, the movie has already recovered more than 1.5 million yuan before filming has started? It has almost recovered the cost?

To be honest, no matter how popular "Two Smoking Barrels" is on the street, the box office will always be a little bit better, right? If you are lucky, you can sell a few overseas copyrights and even get back the travel expenses for the show?

Li Yuan was surprised to find that there seemed to be something wrong with filming the movie?

The eldest lady’s thirty projects are too exaggerated, but ten, twenty...?

It’s better to take it easy and take your time one by one!

…

Today is New Year's Eve. After having fun playing mahjong, several women went to the kitchen and started busy.

This time the New Year dishes are different. In addition to the usual chicken, duck and fish, there is also a table full of seafood.

Two large pots of braised shrimp, one with Antarctic krill and the other with Arctic sweet shrimp. Steamed hairtail, yellow croaker and tofu soup...

There are also pan-fried salmon fillets. They are simply marinated and fried directly in the oil pan. The gravy is tender and fragrant, and when it is served, it is still sizzling with oil.

In the end, two large lobsters and two king crabs were served. This left those women with nothing to do, so they simply boiled the matter...

Staring at such a giant shrimp soldier and crab general, Li Yunyun, Laidi, and Zhaodi, these little lolita sucked their saliva and were dumbfounded. Qiqi was even more excited and kicked her legs repeatedly, with a mouthful of water in her mouth.

It made an inexplicable sound.

Li Yuan was also amused: "Grandma, Mom, is this too much?"

When importing seafood, Li Yuan imported a lot of such parts by the way. Taking advantage of this time to go home for the New Year, he brought it to his mother and daughter-in-law to try.

In fact, Antarctic krill and Arctic sweet shrimp are not very expensive. They mainly come from the north and south poles of the earth. They sound quite rare. However, here in the mainland, hairtail and yellow croaker are equally rare, but at least I have heard of them. But in this era,

Salmon, lobster and king crab are unheard of. This is definitely beyond their imagination.

Regarding Li Yuan's words, Zhang Zhen glanced sideways: "It's just the New Year!"

Okay! Even the eight famous quotes have come out, what else can I say?

Chinese people have always had eight famous sayings: For your own good, just get used to it, it’s not easy. The children are still young, the years are old, they have come, and the old ones have died.

As long as you say these famous sentences, it will usually be beneficial.

However, I still need to remind you: "Seafood is cold in nature. Don't eat too much of this stuff, as eating too much will cause diarrhea."

"I know, I know." Li Lanlan walked around the king crab impatiently, "What's wrong with eating your good food! I'm just stingy."

Zhang Zhen explained with a smile: "We don't eat these high-quality things often. You brought so much home, so just eat more in the past few days."

"I have everything there. I just bring it to you to eat." Li Yuan was amused in his heart. The fish and crabs in the sea are top-grade goods, but the fish and crabs in the lake become low-grade garbage?

"..."

"Brother! It's so hard, how can we open it?"

"How should we eat such big shrimps and such big crabs?"

"Please help us quickly!"

"Yuanzi, you're not going to break it with a hammer, are you? Hehehehe."

"Daughter-in-law, what you said is true. There are special hammers and pliers in the hotel."

"Ah? Is there really one?"

"Brother, you're not bragging again, are you?"

"..."

A happy New Year's Eve dinner, followed by the whole family watching the Spring Festival Gala together. This is the New Year's Eve for most families.

Before the Spring Festival Gala started, the whole family had already crowded in front of the TV, waiting for the legendary highest palace.

To be honest, the former Yutouao Village was relatively pitiful. Since there was no electricity, they had never watched the Spring Festival Gala. Of course, there were also very few other entertainment activities, and they had just learned how to play mahjong?

Therefore, the mother, daughter-in-law, and the others were even more excited, staring at the TV with their eyes fixed on it, wishing they could just get into it.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, in Li Yuan's eyes, this Spring Festival Gala... is not satisfactory! There are no impressive programs. Even the most popular sketch program, the sketch king of the older generation

Chen Erye and Yang Ma broke up, and the new generation of sketch actor Wang Benshan has not yet achieved success.

The only songs worthy of praise are a few songs, "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind", "The Sound of the Waves Are Still" and so on.

Oh, and there are also cattle. Feng Gong's cross talk "Auction" included the auction of a hair of the national football coach Schlapner, and it was enthusiastically sought after by the audience...

It can be seen from this that how popular the national football team is at this time? How popular are the foreign coaches? It is nothing like decades later, whenever the national football team is mentioned in crosstalk, it is definitely sarcasm. Just wait for the grandsons of the national football team to file a lawsuit

.

mmp! Those grandsons actually have the nerve to file a lawsuit?

…

Happy days are always short, and the Spring Festival flies by.

During the holidays, Li Yuan took his wife and son back to his parents' house and basically agreed on the water dispenser. He also ran around to pay New Year greetings. Wang Quan's place, Luo Changfeng's place...

Interestingly, Li Yuan also paid a courtesy visit to Xiong Qi, who was the newly appointed director of Yeshan Qingquan in the city. He had no other intention, mainly just to get to know each other and send some New Year gifts.

What he didn't expect was that Xiong Qi was obviously a little old man who couldn't bear loneliness. After meeting, he not only inquired about the matter of Yeshan Qingquan, but also inquired about many details. In the end, when he heard that Yeshan Qingquan was still there,

There was an African farm, so I volunteered to go there and have a look.

Of course Li Yuan is all-powerful. The old comrades just want to relax and have some travel expenses.

Anyway, he was so busy that he didn't stay at home for long. After finally finishing all these relationships, Li Yuan hurried back to the capital...

As soon as he returned to the capital, Li Yuan summoned all three screenwriting teams and they held a meeting together.

"Teacher Li, according to your request, these three scripts have been completed. The time you requested is too tight, and we often stay up late these days."

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone has worked hard. I brought some local specialties from my hometown, and everyone will share a share later." Li Yuan said cheerfully.

Li Yuan was not stingy about the overtime work of these students and gave them sufficient allowances.

Of course, in such a short period of time, it is impossible to turn the idea mentioned by Li Yuan into a complete script? This is definitely impossible. It is just to make a rough outline of the entire script first, and then slowly add in the details.

Go in.

However, as soon as he finished reading the first script - "Two Smoking Barrels", Li Yuan discovered many problems:

"There are several problems here. If a black humorous film full of violent crimes like this wants to be made into a co-production, the mainland will definitely not be able to pass it. Regarding the review policy, you should be familiar with it than me, right? Then you need to change the background

.Changed to...the magic city during the Republic of China. Underground gangs, concessions, little devils, warlords, etc."

"Teacher Li, this is possible. With multiple forces, it can actually increase the drama and conflict."

"Do you think the name "Two Smoking Barrels" is not good and can easily lead to misunderstanding? It reminds people of unique products. This should really be changed."

"Can it be changed to "Two Big Golden Guns"? Two antique gold-encrusted guns circulated in the palace?"

"Just change it like this. As long as it doesn't affect the main story."

"..."

Since the original version of "Two Smoking Barrels" is a British film, in English, "Big Smoking Barrels" has the connotation of completeness and comprehensiveness, which indicates that the entire film is a multi-line narrative, but the plot is a complete plot.

Of course, the smoking gun is also the core element of this film. All kinds of interesting things happened around these two smoking guns.

Therefore, as a British film, the name "Two Smoking Barrels" is quite suitable. But if it is adapted into a domestic film, it will lose that flavor and will cause some unpleasant ambiguities. It is better to change it to "Two Smoking Barrels".

"Golden Gun".

"Teacher Li, we always feel that there is nothing outstanding about your "Two Smoking Barrels"?" Finally, a student raised an objection.
To be continued...
