After visiting the film company of the Cinemas, Arthur looked indifferent and no longer had his previous expectations. He felt sad and depressed. Through the visit and the person in charge of the film company, Arthur could only sigh with one word of misery about this film company with only a dozen people and the current British film industry.

OK, what a miserable word!

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is dire straits.

Can you imagine that the 613 movies released in the UK currently in 2003 to 2010? Only 7% of these movies make a profit. Among the movies that cost up to 10 million pounds, no more than one-fifth of them make a profit.

With seven years of output, even the number of movies filmed in the Celestial Empire in one year is not as good as that in the past.

What's even more sad is that a Harry Potter series almost caught all registered actors in the UK. Ahem, this is not a praise, but to say that all British actors are making a living by relying on the Harry Potter series of movies...

How pitiful this is him!

You know, the last two Harry Potter series have started filming, which means that after the filming is finished, many people will lose their jobs.

At least half of the people in his film company participated in the shooting of the Harry Potter movie series, so Arthur saw that there were only a dozen people left behind.

What else does he expect?

Before Arthur came, he thought about moving a few future Hollywood movies to make money. Now it seems that he was completely blinded by himself.

Not only are there a shortage of money, but also talent. What's more serious is that even if you shoot it, as long as you don't go abroad and release it in North America, you won't make money, because local audiences not only do not recognize British movies, but the market is also very small, which is completely the back garden of Hollywood movies.

Therefore, having a movie in the UK is not only unrealistic, but also dark!

"Boss, in the UK, filmmakers traditionally practiced to obtain funds from the British Film Association Fund and the BBC Film Public Fund. The investment scale of the British Film Association Fund 15 million pounds and the BBC Film Public Fund 11 million pounds seems a bit pitiful compared to the investments of Hollywood that cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

In addition to capital investment, British films also face great challenges in terms of talent." The head of the film company is also the famous British producer Rebecca. After all, he noticed the disappointment of Arthur Boling, a young noble rich man who just became her boss, and smiled helplessly: "To be honest, I am pessimistic about the future of British independent films.

The output of British independent films has been decreasing in recent years. Although the government's policy of attracting domestic investment is good for the British film industry, the more stable employment created by large-scale investment has brought trouble to independent films.

Now, if we want to shoot unique movies, we often struggle to not recruit relevant cast members, because almost everyone has found jobs on the Harry Potter crew, and the signing period is often as long as 9 months. This makes shooting native British movies more and more difficult.

So, we can only wait helplessly now. Even if there is a shooting project, we can’t find someone to start it.”

"To be honest, I really didn't expect that the situation would be so difficult. After hearing you say it, I was really disappointed. You know, I was thinking about whether I could write a story I thought into a script and make a movie..."

Arthur smiled helplessly and shook his head, and continued, "It seems that I am thinking too much now."

Hearing the words of the young boss, Rebecca, the head of the film company, looked at the theater chain Cyobens on the side, and said with some expectations: "Boss, if the story is wonderful, you are willing to invest and form a crew, there is still no problem..."

Arthur looked at his eyes with some laughter and tears, looking at Rebecca excitedly, shook his head helplessly and said, "Stories are good stories, I can also invest some money. Can you guarantee that you can make money after shooting them?"

"Ahem..." As a middle-aged woman, Rebecca blushed when asked by the young boss, and she was very embarrassed. She was also crazy about poverty and idle. When she heard that she had a surrender, she was still the new boss of her own company, a billionaire who was not short of money, and she also had the intention to make a movie, so she naturally wanted to cheat the project first.

Looking at Rebecca's awkward look, Bince, who was standing by, shook his head and smiled bitterly, eased the embarrassing situation, "Boss, if you can, write the script out and hand it over to Rebecca to see if she can get some investment, maybe it can be operated."

"Haha, to be honest, I really lost the idea of ​​investing when seeing the current situation of British movies. But since it is my own film company, you still have some enthusiasm and it is worth encouraging. Let's do this. The story I think of is a secret room, a disaster, and a thriller story of monsters. This is related to a nightmare I have.

I believe that this kind of thriller movie will not cost much, and it will be fine to operate at a low cost. I will allocate 5 million pounds to you. My only requirement is that all people from the UK are native. What I want is a native British movie. Can it be done?"

Arthur looked at Rebecca who was disappointed and a little disappointed, and he couldn't bear it. It was really sad that British movies could get to this point, but it could not hurt the enthusiasm of these filmmakers. He decided to use Hollywood scripts and invest in a small amount of money to try it out.

As long as the movie is not too bad, I believe that the routine of monster thriller can still recover the cost. Moreover, the more difficult it is, the more brilliant the achievements you have achieved in a desert. Maybe, it will be a big hit, making your film company prosperous and becoming a benchmark for British films.

"Really? Boss--" Rebecca, who had no hope, looked at the young boss with wide eyes and confirmed excitedly.

"Haha, really, I've given you the opportunity. Whether you can grasp it depends on yours. I'm still very sure about this story. I used to think about writing it out and submitting it to Hollywood film companies.

Also, whether you can continue filming depends on the money you earned in this movie. Here I am..." As he said that, Arthur pointed his finger at his head and continued to smile: "There are many good stories. You know, I have the halo of a writer on my head."
