Let you host the artist, how can you become a superstar

Chapter 384:0383

Another May Day holiday is over, and all walks of life are getting busy.

Rongcheng, an office building.

Li Zhan is the screenwriter and director of "A Chinese Ghost Story". Judging from his swaggering steps and breezy smile, it can be seen that he is in a good mood.

"Good morning, Director Li."

"Good morning, is Mr. Wang here?"

"Here we are, in the office."

……

Li Zhan knocked on the door and entered, and the first thing he said was: "Mr. Wang, have you read the data?"

Wang Zihao, the owner of Parrot Films and the leading actor of "A Chinese Ghost Story": "I just opened the Maoyan data network, and I was about to watch you when I came."

Li Zhan sat down on the chair opposite him, and said with a smile: "The offline box office has exceeded 100 million, and the online broadcast volume has reached 200 million."

When Wang Zihao heard the data reported by him, a look of joy flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Not bad, not bad, the money will be paid back in seven days, and then we will see how much money we can make in the remaining 24 days."

Li Zhan said again: "It's just that the score is getting lower and lower, and it has dropped to 2.2."

Wang Zihao didn't take it seriously, and said: "Scoring is not what we are after, what we want is box office and broadcast volume."

Chen Qian's analysis is correct, the reason why he named the company "Parrot" is to reproduce blockbuster movies.

In the era when word-of-mouth was king, several films made by his studio lost money, so he had a flash of inspiration and decided to go against the current and switch to bad movies, and the worse the better.

However, it is not so easy to make bad movies and make money, so he developed a set of unique secrets, referred to as "three tricks for bad movies".

The first trick: You have to be able to catch up and keep up with the popularity of blockbuster movies. Not all movies are copycats, but you have to choose the IP of the most popular movies that have been released recently. Can trick the audience into the cinema.

The second trick: If you want to be able to edit, the bigger the brain, the better. In order not to be accused of "plagiarism", first collect the information of the movie you want to copy on the Internet, such as the title, poster, genre, and introduction announced during the movie promotion. , Then the screenwriter only needs to use their imagination based on the data, boldly guess the plot, and borrow their concepts to create new stories.

The third trick: Be economical, earn big money with a small amount of money. The actors only need 18 lines.

The movies produced in this way are all good at "no slots, no joys", poking at the audience's slots, making moviegoers complain about how bad they are, and at the same time can't help but continue watching, how bad it can be.

To sum up, "cottage" is their way of attack, and "thick skin" is their only criterion for making money.

Wang Zihao asked: "Didn't you come to the company just for the data?"

Li Zhan then said: "That's how it is. I have a friend who came to invest in the company. After hearing me talk about our company's film shooting concept a few days ago, he became very interested and wanted to invest."

Wang Zihao's eyes lit up, and he said, "How much?"

Li Zhan stretched out three fingers and said, "300 million."

Wang Zihao licked his lower lip and said, "Is your friend reliable?"

Li Zhan nodded and said, "You can rest assured that he is an old classmate of mine. His company is called 'Tencent Investment', and he is quite famous in the investment circle."

Wang Zihao had heard about this company before, so he said directly: "Ask him to sign a contract."

It is true that "A Chinese Ghost Story" has made money, but after all, it is a bad film, and there is a possibility that it will lose everything. If you have the capital to bear this risk, then it would be great.

Then, Li Zhan asked tentatively: "Then, our next movie is..."

With the goal in mind, Wang Zihao said without hesitation, ""Chinatown Detective"!"

------

Jiang Ge, who was filming in Hengdian, didn't know that another movie of his was going to be copycat.

"Restore the props to the venue. After 10 minutes, there will be another one..."

After Jiang Ge gave the order, he picked up the script and took a look. The progress was much faster than expected, and it should be finished in June.

At this time, Liu Ya came over and said, "Jiang Dong, can I talk to you?"

Django put down the script, pushed the stool beside him, and said, "Of course."

"Thank you." Liu Ya sat down, and immediately got to the point, saying: "It's like this, Yida Films has launched a TV series and asked me to play the lead actress, but I read the script and I'm not sure, so Look for you to watch over."

Now she has managed to get rid of the label of "vase", and half of her foot has stepped into the powerful faction, so she is much more cautious when taking the role.

"That's it..." Jiang Ge felt troubled when he heard it, because he didn't know if it was good without reading the script, but reading the script involved commercial secrets. After a short thought, he said: "Tell me, you What kind of route or style do you want to take in the future, and then I will give you a suggestion for acting."

"Okay." Liu Ya beamed with joy, and said: "My idea is very simple, that is, to take the route of acting, so I hesitated, whether to take the role of silly and sweet."

She was very smart, and she pointed out the character design of the female number one given to her by Yida Films.

As one of the most popular heroine types in early film and television dramas, "Silly White Sweet" was once the most favored role by many actresses. For one thing, among female audiences, they can rely on "kind" and "unscheming" characters. The character design wins favor; secondly, among the male audience, it can continue to attract fans with its "cute" and "sweet" image.

However, because the characters of "silly, white and sweet" are often relatively thin and single, in the storyline, as long as the heroines are lively, cheerful, kind and lovely, innocent and innocent, it seems to be enough to handle everything.

Therefore, after experiencing aesthetic fatigue, the audience gradually began to get bored and even disgusted with this kind of "silly, white and sweet" character without three-dimensional image support.

Jiang Ge understood what she meant, smiled lightly, and said: "See how you understand, in my opinion, the role of silly white sweet also needs acting skills, you can compare those successful cases and failure cases, and make a very simple one. It is not an easy task to interpret the characters so that the audience can empathize with them, be cute without being silly, cute without being stupid, and innocent without falsehood."

Liu Ya nodded and said, "What Jiang Dong means is that I can take it?"

Jiang Ge smiled slightly and said: "I often tell Shen Yang, Lin Yu, and Yan Si that there are no small roles, only small actors, as long as they interpret each role well, they are good actors."

Liu Ya realized something, and sincerely thanked: "Jiang Dong, thank you."

"Small things." Speaking of the new drama, Jiang Ge just remembered something, and said, "By the way, I have a new drama to start filming from New Year's Day to June next year, can you spare me the time?"

He has relaxed the conditions now, and does not force actors to stop filming when filming his scenes, but he arranges for you to shoot whenever you want to film, and will not adjust the time for you. If you are absent because of filming, then Substitute directly, and pay for all losses in the play.

He understands that in order to realize the flow of traffic, actors will take several plays at the same time and shoot together, but this is the only compromise he can make, and the quality of his boutique line must also be guaranteed.

And Liu Ya was very grateful to him, regardless of previous suspicions, she asked her to act in a play, so that she could finally move forward to the powerful group, when she heard that there was a new play, she immediately said: "I will definitely leave the schedule for you, I will be there whenever you are called. "

Jiang Ge intends to give her a reassurance. After all, she is a new first-line actress. She always finds her to act as the second and third female lead. There are not many roles, but every scene is amazing, and it is the heroine."

Liu Ya wanted to cry a little, although his plays, leading roles, supporting roles, and even small roles, are all popular, but who doesn't want to play the leading role, so she quickly thanked: "Jiang Dong, thank you."

Django glanced at the venue, and saw that the arrangement was almost done, and said, "Go and get ready."

Liu Ya responded with an "um", and was as happy as a child, bouncing around to touch up her makeup.

However, Django's shoot didn't start properly because the assistant brought a guy over.

As I mentioned last time, the "League of Legends" contest party thought he was too expensive and didn't ask him to write a song, but there was someone who didn't think he was too expensive, and that was the "Brother Overcoming Thorns" program group.

The person who came was the general director Fan Ning. After meeting and saying hello, he directly explained the purpose of coming: "Jiang Dong, I came here this time to ask you to write a song, which will be sung by 33 male artists in the first competition. Opening song."

Jiang Ge was very surprised. This variety show was naturally created by him. At that time, it was Zhou Lingwei who replaced "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", so why didn't Zhou Lingwei come to him.

There are two reasons. One is that Zhou Lingwei did not go to supervise the production of "Brother Riding the Thorns", and the other is that Zhou Lingwei does not want Blueberry Satellite TV to benefit from his relationship with Django.

Therefore, which male artists the program group wants to find on the show, and what songs they want to use for the competition are all their business.

Fan Ning knows that Jiang Ge is expensive, but at the same time, it can bring more heat and topics. Anyway, the budget is sufficient, so why not.

It is said that Jiang Ge is expensive, how expensive is it?

For example, Fang Wenshan wrote lyrics for Jay Chou, and he paid 8000 yuan per word. The whole song of "Blue and White Porcelain" has 336 words. Based on this calculation, he can get 269 million yuan.

And Jiang Ge is not only the lyrics, but also the music and arrangement, plus the popularity is higher than Fang Wenshan, at least they all started with tens of millions.

Of course, that is the case of buying out the copyright. If you just want to buy the commercial copyright and are willing to share it, it will not be so expensive.

After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Ge smiled and said, "Director Fan, what time do you want?"

When Fan Ning heard the words, he thought there was something to be done, and replied: "Before June, because the first episode was recorded on June 6, and it will start broadcasting on June 6."

To set aside a period of time for the 33 male artists to practice songs in advance, it is impossible to start practicing on the day of recording.

Django asked the time, it was purely a convention, even if he asked for it now, he could take it out.

I saw him pretending to be thinking about it, and after a while, he said, "Buy out the copyright, or just commercial copyright?"

Fanning replied: "Commercial copyright."

Django nodded, and then said the price.

Fan Ning had calculated in advance, and seeing that the offer was within a reasonable range, he readily agreed.

Django sent him away and came back to bring drinks for everyone, because he was in a good mood because he had money in his pocket.

In the evening, Zhou Lingwei's inquiry came late.

"Director Fan went to see you today?"

"Yes, in the morning."

"Then, did you agree?"

"I agree, why not agree if I have money to make?"

"He came to me first. I was worried that you had too many things to do and were too tired, so I refused. I didn't expect him to come to you."

"It's okay, it's just a song, and the requirements are not high."

……

Zhou Lingwei's concern put a smile on Jiang Ge's face, but this is an easy thing to do, where does the tiredness come from.

Both of them have work to do tomorrow, so they chatted on WeChat for a while, then hung up and took a rest.

------

The popularity of the three songs "Kyushu Tong", "Blue and White Porcelain", and "The Road Follows the Boundless" remains high, and they still occupy the top three hit songs list.

And the hit "Youth Bao Qingtian", with the development of the plot, gradually getting better.

A TV series that guarantees quality requires a gold medal screenwriter, a director who can tell stories, and excellent actors. This drama is a collection of these high-quality works.

[Tricycle Chasing the Wind]: It is getting better and better, with a steady narrative style and solid lines.

[Stranger Lishang]: All kinds of markets full of historical atmosphere reflect the appearance of that era.

[Time waits for no one]: The plot is well set up, fascinating and hooked.

[Rabbit Sunflower Head]: Every episode solves the suspense, and then drops one or two new suspense.

[Mu Yue]: During the watching process, I was completely distracted by the case in the play, and I was afraid I might miss something.

[Sweet fried why too anxious]: Looking forward to the next case!
……

At present, the evaluation and ratings of "Youth Bao Qingtian" are generally good, the rating is stable at 8.7, and the ratings are maintained at around 5.0%.

The second unit [Blood Sacrifice] is over, and we come to the third unit [Mystery of Hermit Village].

The reason why this unit looks good is not because of how complicated the case is, but because there are too many "cruel" things in it.

For example, the "Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle", which can fire 999 poisonous needles in one second, is said to be unstoppable even by gods; another example, the gloomy forest, paired with the divine soundtrack "Into the Lost Forest", is simply creepy; For another example, there are six families in the village + the ironworks, and a total of seven mummies with missing parts are buried.

And today, it was the episode where the murderer of [Mystery of Hermit Village] was revealed, and Yan Bing and He Yuxiao were waiting in front of the TV on time.

As mentioned in the last few episodes, after solving the [Blood Sacrifice Altar] case, Bao Zheng said goodbye to his mother and went to Beijing for the test accompanied by Ling Chuchu and Zhan Zhao. Everyone in the village is mysterious, and in the secret room of the six families, there is a mummified corpse missing a part of the body. At this time, the owners of the six families were killed one by one, including Ling Chuchu's father, under Bao's full investigation, found that this was closely related to the mummy of each family. It turned out that more than 20 years ago, the owners of the six villas killed another brother who was like a brother and his family, and sent the family to him. The mummies of the family members are hidden to show that everyone is guilty and restrains each other.

"here we go!"
