Chapter 285 Breaking the Ceiling of Animation Cost
In the conference room of Lingxin Animation, Li Yi was wearing a black sportswear and sitting opposite the conference table. Looking at the conference room, Li Tianxing, Sun Hao, He Chang and several other executives were all present.

Li Yi looked at the people present, and asked slightly seriously: "What do you think? ""

Everyone looked at each other, but you looked at me, I looked at you, and looked at each other for a long time, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes.

It's not that their hearts are not strong enough, but that Li Yi's steps are too big, which makes them feel a little unreliable.

Because Li Yi just proposed a plan.

A proposal for the production of an 'animated film'.

Everyone was amazed.

Animated movie!

In the Chinese market, countless practitioners in the animation industry were shocked by the news.

So far, except for a few children's animation movies, none of the animations can make a profit in the Chinese market. Making one and losing one is the current status of China's animation industry.

So naturally no investors dare to invest money in it for nothing.

After all, no one's money comes from the wind.

So when Li Yi proposed this plan, the first reaction of everyone present was that they heard it wrong, but they didn't understand until they saw Li Yi's determined expression.

Li Yi is going to get serious.

Although they really want to get involved in this supreme field in the animation industry, the current status of the Huaxia animation industry still makes them a little daunting and very afraid.

Although Soul Heart Animation has no shortage of production funds, the game department next door is a rich local tyrant.But spending other people's money is always a bit awkward psychologically.

Moreover, no one in the company had any experience in making feature-length animated films, and no one dared to take the lead at this moment.

After all, if you want to make an animation movie, as long as you don't want to fool people and cheat government subsidies, but want to make the movie better, it is basically impossible to invest in eight figures.

The sky-high eight-figure number means that people like them may not be able to earn money in a few lifetimes. If a movie is messed up, who can afford this responsibility?
Therefore, all the employees here have a feeling that they want to kill the enemy and are powerless.

We really want to make a movie, but our strength does not allow it.

"Mr. Li, Assassin Wu Liuqi has just launched, and the response has been very good. I think it's safe to start producing the second season of Ci Assassin Wu Liuqi, and it's not impossible to even recover the cost." Among the seats, one with cheekbones The bearded man looks like he is in his 30s, but in fact, the deputy director of action design who just graduated from college last year raised his hand and said a little nervously.

Li Yi nodded silently, his eyes focused, and he swept his eyes silently over the two rows of spiritual animation executives on the conference table. These people were swept by Li Yi's eyes, and some of them did not dare to look at him. Lowered his head.

"Do you think so too?" Li Yi asked plainly.

The crowd bowed their heads sadly and remained silent.

"Mr. Li, I wonder what kind of animation you want to make?" A petite girl raised her hand weakly and asked.

Li Yi glanced at the girl, he had the impression that this was the company's original artist.

Li Yi glanced at the people present, and under the eyes of everyone, he reached out and picked up the remote control of the projector on the table, raised his hand and pressed lightly on the projector installed on the top of the conference room.

A beam of light was projected, and it was immediately thrown into a pure white curtain at the front of the meeting room.

Then there are original paintings one by one, as well as 3D model introductions, as well as the trend and development of the plot, the exquisite clothing and accessories, and the shaping of the characters' hair.
Various introductions flashed past the white curtain like marquees.

The more people watched, the more shocked they became.

When the projector finished working, everyone here swallowed unconsciously. What Li Yi showed them on the screen was beyond their imagination.

"Mr. Li, if you make it according to the requirements on your PPT, I am afraid that all the animation companies in the entire imperial capital will not be able to make it." Li Tianxing swallowed his saliva, looked at the picture on the curtain, bit the bullet and was quite unreasonable. said with difficulty.

Li Yi glanced at Li Tianxing.

He knows all this.

At present, Huaxia animation is in decline. Even the top animation companies do not have the ability to independently produce a movie with a duration of more than two hours, so the only way is to find other companies to cooperate in the production.

This is also the current mainstream cooperation model in China, and China Animation is not doing well in the first place. This model of one family eating meat and other companies following suit is also very popular among China Animation Company.

But after everyone watched Li Yi's PPT, they found that Li Yi's requirements for the whole drama, in terms of details, have already matched the standards of many large-scale animation blockbusters in the West.

And when they saw the final budget, they were even more shocked.

I saw that the filming budget of this movie has reached an astonishing 3 million yuan.

Three hundred million?

For the industry as a whole, it doesn’t seem like much.

But in fact, the current ceiling for animation film production costs in China is 1 million yuan by default, and it is rare to exceed [-] million yuan.Basically, the budget is tens of millions. If it exceeds [-] million, it must include publicity and distribution and other expenses.

The pure production cost is basically not invested in the unit of '[-] million'.

This is also the dilemma of China's animation industry. The maximum investment is only 1 million yuan, but now the cost of animation in the West has exceeded one billion yuan. In terms of investment, China is simply hard to come by.

Especially when seeing western animation companies investing [-] million US dollars and so on, all practitioners in China's animation market looked at it with longing eyes.

In China, I'm afraid there will be no animated film with an investment of [-] million in the next ten years. As for one billion?
That's even more out of reach.

As for such an animated movie, Li Yi's initial budget was 3 million yuan. In the eyes of Chinese animation people, this is no longer rich and powerful. This is simply a father.

"Since the emperor can't do it, then find all the animation companies in China!" Li Yi said firmly.

He also thought about this problem at the beginning, although the average technical level of Huaxia Animation is far behind the top animation special effects technology in the West, at least 20 years of accumulation.

And it is difficult to make up for it in a short time.

But Li Yi believes that this is not a problem.

Although the Chinese animation market is often criticized.

But the strength is still there. Now Li Yi wants to gather all the power of China to create the strongest domestic animation in China since the millennium.

"We have only one goal, and that is to make a movie that people will say 'shit' when they see it!" Li Yi glanced around at the people around him, his voice resounding.

Those in the conference room were also infected by Li Yi, and felt their blood heat up.
