Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 877: Shocking Hostel's New Project

The protagonist, Qin Yi, is not a sympathetic child, but a soldier with a clear mind and an iron heart.

Influenced by the worm’s nest consciousness, he naturally has a feeling of closeness and sympathy to the Zerg, but he can resist and resist this feeling of closeness with his own reason, deceive the Zerg without hesitation, and order the entire Zerg to be exterminated. What the protagonist should do from the perspective of China.

Of course, this also makes the final outcome even more ironic.

If it is the protagonist of the Virgin, calling for peaceful coexistence with the Zerg, and finally to the Zerg side, the audience will only think that he is a "traitor" and an idiot, and will not have any good impressions of him.

However, Qin Yi was completely on the side of humans, but he was betrayed by accident and was forced to become the master of the Zerg, which made it difficult for the audience to dislike him.

Therefore, if Lu Zhiyao is asked to evaluate this movie, he thinks that this movie has three special features.

The first is to reinterpret a classic science fiction theme from the perspective of Chinese culture. For domestic audiences, this is a story that makes most people feel that the values ​​are consistent with them.

Secondly, such a huge investment and such a large number of special effects shots have pushed domestic sci-fi movies to a peak. No matter whether its box office is profitable or lost, at least it will leave a strong mark in the history of domestic sci-fi movies.

The last is this special form of expression, which is clearly different from other movies and is a very novel attempt.

The main actor in the whole movie is Lu Zhiyao alone. If his acting skills collapse, then the movie will collapse; but if his acting skills support the whole movie, it will last for more than an hour and emotionally. Performances with varying degrees will become classics in film history.

No location, all green screen, although it greatly increases the cost of shooting, but it is not a way to avoid weaknesses.

The current situation in China is that there are many companies that do special effects for games and good technology, but there are few companies that do special effects for movies and poor technology. Moreover, Tenda Group itself has more technical reserves in games.

That being the case, deliberately not doing so many real scenes, it's just a space capsule and a circle of green screens. All actual combat scenes are made with special effects, which can guarantee the effect to the greatest extent.

In addition, Lu Zhiyao also vaguely feels that this movie is inextricably linked to the gameplay of "Mission and Choice".

It’s just that Lu Zhiyao is not a hard-core gamer himself. He knows little about the game and knows nothing about the details of the game "Mission and Choice", so he can only wait until the game is released and the movie is released. Figure out the connection between the two.

After reading the last part of the script, Lu Zhiyao was even more sure that his film was connected.

Think about it, can there be problems with Mr. Pei's film?Every one is definitely a classic!

If the previous "Better Tomorrow" was a sci-fi film that actually talked about human nature and social system, then "Mission and Choice" is a serious science fiction film.

Moreover, this science fiction film puts forward higher demands on Lu Zhiyao's acting skills.If you can play well, then Lu Zhiyao will definitely go further on the road to become the actor!

Thinking of this, Lu Zhiyao felt full of energy all over, and continued to practice his acting skills in the mirror.

Monday, February 6.

After getting up, Pei Qian had breakfast, and drove straight to the Shocking Hostel.

Today is the Lantern Festival, but the Lantern Festival is not a legal holiday, so there is no holiday.However, Pei Qian deliberately urged that fish takeaway should add Lantern to the employees' working meals, which can be regarded as a special holiday care.

Today, Pei Qian went to the Shocking Hostel, because he had a big job to hand over to Chen Kangtuo.

The Terror Hostel was completed in July of last year. There are three projects: Escape from a Haunted House, Nightmare in the Haunted House and Ultimate Horror.

After the opening, Mr. Li and others conducted a wave of publicity in Jingzhou and even Handong Province. Zhang Wang conducted a wave of publicity through shared phone booths across the country, and another wave of publicity was carried out on the videos of various UP hosts. After the "General Lifestyle" fire, many people came to Jingzhou to challenge this thrilling project.

In short, as a haunted house, the Terror Hostel is already well-known throughout the country.When mentioning the haunted house in Jingzhou and even the entire Handong Province, everyone's first reaction was to shock the hostel, and many young people came from other cities to experience it.

However, half a year later, the passenger flow of the Shocking Hostel has also dropped, and there is still a long way to go before recovering the initial construction cost.

The most fundamental reason is that there is no cluster effect.

There are dozens or dozens of projects in large-scale amusement parks at every turn. There are not only haunted houses, but also extreme and exciting projects such as roller coasters and big pendulums, and carousels, which are relatively soothing and suitable for children.

These large amusement parks are suitable for all ages, and can play many projects at a time, attracting more tourists.

Although the project of Terror Hostel is very fun, and compared to other haunted houses, it also has a certain replayable nature, but the first wave of horror lovers will get tired of coming three or four times at most, and will not come every day.

Therefore, the heat naturally dropped.

Pei Qian felt that this was a good phenomenon.

After half a year of opening, I will look back at the Shocking Hostel project. Although it can make money at the moment, it is still far away to recover the initial investment cost. It may take several years, ten years or even longer.

This shows that the "spectacles mistake the country" strategy is right!

Now that Pei Qian has more and more system funds in his hands, he can almost continue to build a large amount of money in the Jingzhe Hostel and burn a lot of money.

...

Pei Qian came to the office of the Shocking Hostel Park and met Chen Kangtuo and Hao Qiong.

It is Monday morning, and there are not many tourists in the entire area of ​​the Shocking Hostel. Chen Kangtuo and Hao Qiong are in the office, busy with some daily affairs.

After becoming the person in charge of Shocking Hostel, Chen Kangtuo didn't go into the haunted house every day. In addition to maintaining the normal operation of Shocking Hostel and handling some emergencies, his main energy was all on continuing to improve the tourist experience. .

Although the completion of these three projects is already very high, there is still room for improvement in some details. Some buildings and decorations in the site also have room for further improvement.

Chen Kangtuo spent the whole day at the Shocking Hostel, and he was almost as familiar with it as his own backyard, and when he had nothing to do, he proposed some minor repairs and supplements.

Therefore, so far, the experience for the visitors of the Shocking Hostel is much better than when it first opened.

Seeing President Pei, both Chen Kangtuo and Hao Qiong were a little excited.

President Pei has not forgotten us!

President Pei hasn't been here for half a year since the start of the Shocking Hostel.Had it not been for the huge investment in this place, Chen Kangtuo and Hao Qiong would almost think that they were the abandoned son of President Pei.

Now President Pei has finally arrived, obviously he has a new mission!

Pei Qian sat down on the sofa in the office, took a sip of tea, didn't plan to sell it, and went straight to the topic.

"There is nothing special in coming today, just a new job has been arranged for you."

"Give you one hundred million in funding, a one-year construction period, and build a new project on the side of the thrilling hostel."

Chen Kangtuo and Hao Qiong were stunned for an instant.

What the hell?

One hundred million in funds??

Both of them were lost.

Because Tengda Group has invested only 50 to 60 million yuan in the Frightening Hostel so far, and it is still the case of three projects!

The three projects, "Desperate Escape, Haunted House Nightmare, and Ultimate Horror", including the golden labyrinth in the park, the maid cafe, etc., all use the original factory buildings, so they are mainly reconstructed and set in the factory.

Tens of millions are enough to create a very top horror effect.

As for the supporting facilities around the three projects, they are all paid by Mr. Li.

In the past, three projects cost 50 to 60 million yuan, but now one project will cost 100 million yuan?

The cost and duration of this project are much higher than the previous three projects!

What project must this be?

Chen Kangtuo tentatively asked, "President Pei, is this a haunted house to be built this time?"

Pei Qian shook his head: "No."

At the beginning, Pei Qian decided to build a haunted house for two purposes: one was to lose money, and the other was to scare Ruan Guangjian.

But in this state of Shock Hostel, neither of the two goals has been achieved!

The second goal was particularly unsuccessful. Ruan Guangjian not only didn't frighten him, but had a lot of fun in the "ultimate terror".

If you build a new haunted house, wouldn't it be cheaper for this kid?

Moreover, the greater the investment in the haunted house, the more likely it is to attract horror lovers from all over the world.

The Shocking Hostel is already well-known among the horror enthusiasts. If you spend another 100 million to continue to build a new haunted house project, its scale will probably catch up with the super-large haunted house of Wushan Mental Hospital, and it will become the largest in the country. The haunted house project has disastrous consequences.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Pei Qian decided to let go of the haunted house first, and spend one billion this time on other projects.

The reason for setting such a high budget is mainly because of the long construction period.

This project will span two cycles, nearly a year, how much money do you want to make in this year?The budget is set a little higher, so that you can save money when you get it.

When Mr. Pei said it was not a haunted house project, Chen Kangtuo was a little relieved.

Ok!

Because the design of the three haunted houses of the Shocking Hostel has almost squeezed the ideas of him and Hao Qiong, and then spend 100 million to build a haunted house, and at most it will become a large haunted house like the Wushan Mental Hospital. There must be something new.

Do other projects, so as to enrich the entertainment types of Terror Hostel.

Chen Kangtuo asked: "President Pei, what exactly are you going to do this time?"

Pei Qian had already thought about it, and immediately replied: "A roller coaster, but it's not a traditional roller coaster."

Chen Kangtuo and Hao Qiong were confused and continued to listen carefully.
