Become a dramatist from today

The post-production of "The Truman Show" has been completed, the first trailer has been released, and Cen He has entered the main competition section of the Cannes Film Festival.

As for meeting the audience, the schedule has not yet been determined, but the popularity of the Internet has reached its peak. To put it bluntly, even "The Ice Breaker 3" and "The Ice Sculpture Company" cannot compete with it.

Breaking the Ice is the series that put Yuan Xiangshi on the map as a top actor. The first two films earned a box office of 7.1 billion yuan, and both of them are among the top 15 Chinese movies at the box office.

The Ice Sculpture Company is a war film with a main theme of 200 million yuan, and Director Yang has not failed in the previous films.

Discussions on Truman on the Internet have greatly overshadowed them. You can imagine how much word-of-mouth and popularity Huang Baiyou has accumulated in the five or six years he has traveled through the world.

Mainly in the Chinese entertainment industry, Huang Baiyou is an unavoidable topic.

"Don't cry if you lose the bet," Master Yuan Xiang said with a smile.

His wife Wan Wei hummed, "Huang Baiyou must not be good at acting. Think about it, he is deaf. It would be good if he can perform three to four points."

"Brother Thirteen will not take action if he is not sure about his performance." Master Yuan Xiang said, "So Wanwan, you are definitely going to lose."

"No matter how powerful it is, don't believe it blindly." Wan Wei said this, but she actually didn't want to believe it in her heart. She had watched "White Night" from beginning to end and had a full understanding of Huang's acting skills.

But the interest between husband and wife requires both parties to be different in order to "play" it. Moreover, in her eyes, her husband's acting skills are the best, so the filter is quite thick.

Ning Jie and his remarried wife were among those who used Huang Baiyou to bet in the chat. Judging from this, Huang Baiyou's matter, even if it is a hot search, is still a topic of discussion inside and outside the circle.

The client is resting and thinking about something.

"Nirvana in Fire" and "Black Ice".

Huang Baiyou felt a little strange. Are there so many good books? Like a swarm of bees, the two scripts placed on his desk both had a popularity value of 80,000.

"This should be two typical fields of business and award-winning." Huang Baiyou judged that the former may be a hit drama, while the latter will sweep the Emperor's Awards.

"Nirvana in Fire, I haven't done many costume dramas, so I will do one more." Huang Baiyou also knows that this time the small screen is mainly the support point for the company to transform from a studio, and hit dramas are the best support.

The development of the studio has limitations, but Huang Baiyou's career line is still moving upward step by step.

Looking at the popularity value of millions, it is impossible to use it up.

80,000 yuan started Mei Changsu's reward mission. I won't talk about the specific content of the mission because Huang Baiyou was interrupted by a phone call.

Hey, it's the phone again. He hasn't answered the phone for a long time. Even though his hearing has recovered somewhat, the buzzing of Didi is still obvious.

Caller: Dean Peng

After hanging up the phone and making a voice call, Dean Peng brought good news. There was an audition spot for Mandohari Hardy's new play.

Huang Baiyou thanked him first, and soon received an email containing the script, the film's story outline, character outline and audition clips.

Even though Huang Baiyou is now a top actor in Asia, he still cannot get all the scripts from major Hollywood directors.

It can only be said that the United States does still retain the "arrogance" of a cultural center.

[In his childhood, Chiron was called "Little One" by others because of his short stature. He grew up in a single-parent family, and his mother ignored him...]

"The script is called "Moonlight," a gay book?" Huang Baiyou was keenly aware that the script should be tailor-made for black actors, especially the male protagonist.

Not wanting to act, Huang Baiyou sent a message to Dean Peng, "Thanks to Dean Peng for helping to introduce the script, but the role in the new play directed by Hardy really did not suit me, so I failed to live up to Dean Peng's kindness." ]

One final point involves homosexuality and racial minorities.

Dean Peng: [This is my question. I didn’t ask clearly what Hardy’s new film is. I really don’t want to get involved in movies about minority groups, as they can easily become targets. ]

The reason why Dean Peng didn't ask Hardy first what he was filming was because Hardy's previous works left an impression on people, such as "Father Trapped in Time" and "Classic Cars", which all focused the camera on ordinary groups. Anyway, Don't stick to these.

After apologizing to the introducer, Huang Baiyou got in touch with Hadi again. As soon as he started talking, the other party agreed.

It's clear director Hardy has his heart set on something.

Not all good books can be starred in, as Huang Baiyou knows very well.

The next day, Huang Baiyou came to the studio while he was resting.

"A String of Life" was sold to iQiyi. Because the main actor is not pornographic, the price is much lower than that of Bai Ye.

But with the fame of director Wei Ming, and the huge reputation of the show, a total of 35 episodes, and a fee of about 100 million was obtained.

Coupled with the sponsorship from Ele.me (the protagonist in one unit of the drama is a delivery boy), Volkswagen, Xiaoxiaole and other sponsors.

Huang Baiyou saw the data report and made a lot of money. Even if "A String of Life" became popular, the studio still made money.

Of course, Huang Baiyou still hopes that the drama will become a hit, because making money is the long-term solution.

In addition, Chu Yuan talked in detail about the promotion status of several artists in the company.

Very good, thriving in every aspect.

"How are the channels in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand?" Huang Baiyou took the initiative to ask about another business.

There are very few domestic studios with overseas distribution channels, and they must continue to explore.

"We have already negotiated with the Eighth Wave Dao in Lion City." Chu Yuan responded.

MediaCorp Channel 8 is originally a Chinese-language comprehensive entertainment channel with its own "Asian Theater". When it was most popular, it often co-produced series between Singapore and China.

Babo Road has always only cooperated with CCTV and TVB, and occasionally purchased a few Taiwanese dramas. Daydream Studio can squeeze in, and its capabilities are pretty good.

"What about Malaysia and Thailand?" Huang Baiyou asked again.

"There is no breakthrough point at the moment." Chu Yuan replied, "Thailand and Malaysia currently prefer Korean dramas, and even if a Chinese drama becomes popular, the two places prefer to buy the copyright and remake it themselves."

"Take your time. If it were that simple, other companies would have done it long ago and wouldn't leave it to us." Huang Baiyou comforted.

He can think of the reason. His fame in Thailand and Malaysia is not enough to be a stepping stone.

"If there is a chance, Nirvana in Fire can be broadcast simultaneously in China, Japan and South Korea, and then sweep across Southeast Asia."

Huang Baiyou knows that Southeast Asia and Central Asia are actually within the radiation range of the Han cultural circle, so costume dramas are also popular.

The meeting ended at three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was a little troublesome for Huang Baiyou to read the documents, which delayed everyone's time. The afternoon milk tea was not included in Huang Baiyou's schedule.

"Xiaoxiao, does the Truman feeling still exist?" Huang Baiyou asked.

"Let me think about it," Wu Xiaoxiao looked Huang Baiyou up and down, "It's been gone for the past two days."

Hearing this, Huang Baiyou felt a lot more relaxed. The influence of a movie character may not have any harm, and may even have "benefits".

Just like Truman, being more optimistic is good for the spirit.

But the mental state is like a building, a thousand-mile dike breaks in an ant nest. Huang Baiyou has to guard against the impact on the character's personality.
