Entertainment starts from the Tucao Conference

"Life is more than learning, it's just telling the truth," Chu Yang said, "It's already been arranged, and I will send my classmates off tonight."

"Just waiting for your big meal."

"Imperial Gift" has not yet started, but it is already making final preparations, and it is also filming in Hengzhou Film and Television City. Zhai Bin knew that Qiu Yuan had arrived, so he specially came to this farewell banquet. The main characters of his crew also followed.

Knowing that Shen Yao and Liu Meng are from the Acting Department of Beijing Film and Television, and have received such important roles just after their freshman year, the students in the magic show became a little jealous, and came to pour Chu Yang with all their might.

"Goodbye, big brother, remember to miss us, come on, let's go."

"Eldest brother, this is a gift we bought for you together, don't hold it against you."

"Cheer up senior director, remember to save a few more shots for us, please, um, I'll do it first, you can do whatever you want."

"I'll say it again before I leave, a concert! A concert! We want a concert!"

"Brother, don't you have anything to say to us at such a special moment?"

"What are you talking about? Sing! I want to listen to "Yijianmei"!"

Shen Yao asked Ye Lan curiously: "What "One Cut Plum"?"

"A bgm in "Charlotte's Annoyance" was specially marked by Brother Yang in the script. Everyone knows the title of the song, but no one has ever heard of it."

Music is the top priority of "Charlotte Annoyance". There are nearly twenty songs in it, all of which have been popular in the world. The only two "original" songs are "Just Once" written by Charlotte herself in the movie. " and "Yijianmei" used as bgm.

The daily life of the production crew is very joyful, starting on time in the morning, finishing work on time in the afternoon, and in the evening, the main creators are chatting about the performance of the day, and then Chu Ling and some students who can sing and dance will sing and dance, but everyone has threatened and lured them many times but failed Pry "One Cut Plum" out of Chu Yang's mouth.

Zhou Wen, Zhang Ya and the others had been agitated by the students long ago, and followed suit.

"Director, Yan Hang and Li Xiao have performed so many skits for us, and you haven't sung for us once, it's a bit unreasonable."

"Yeah, every day someone asks me what it's like to listen to you sing live. I said I haven't heard it, but no one believes it."

"That's right, or you can give us a sketch."

"What a small product, let's talk about a cross talk."

""Exploring the Qingshui River"!"

Chu Yang let out a breath of alcohol, "You guys don't understand the essence of "A Plum Blossom", and I can't sing it out. You can only understand it when the movie is released. As for the one who said "Explore the Clear Water River", it's pure trouble...don't make a fuss, you know You can’t escape, and you’re ready.”

When he was talking, Ye Lan had already got up and came back with a guitar.

The crowd applauded.

Chu Yang tuned the strings, and said: "This song is for all my juniors and girls. I wish you all smooth sailing on the road of acting, and you will perform more classic roles that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Don't forget the original intention, from the beginning to the end, and I also send it to all of you." Filmmakers, I wish our Chinese films better and better..."

"Movies are not only the art of light and shadow, but also the most beautiful dreams we can weave. This song is a love letter to all dream weavers..."

After a long foreshadowing, everyone's curiosity was aroused. Everyone raised their mobile phones, turned on their cameras, and pointed at Chu Yang in the middle.

Chu Ling moved closer to Ye Lan's ear, "Have you registered the copyright?"

"registered."

Many people thought of it, and immediately clicked on the copyright website, and quickly found the name of the song.

Unexpectedly, it was really "A Love Letter to Filmmakers".

The prelude sounded.

The simple and plain guitar sound is neither amazing nor surprising, but when the singing sounded, everyone present immediately felt as if they were hit.

"How many people love the demeanor you left behind on the screen;

How many people love your independent attitude;

Your eternal childlike mentality;

The helplessness of self-admiration;

Who understands your carefully hidden sorrow;

......"

Chapter 198 Sister Guanyin

"A Love Letter to Filmmakers", written by Luo Qirui, composed by Li Zongsheng, sung by Cai Qinyuan.

Chu Yang's singing changed from the previous clear and thorough, to thick and deep, full of warmth.

"You foolishly pursue perfection, but you have been misunderstood, hurt, given up, and blamed all the time.

Why be sad, why be sad, why worry and suffer, why laugh, scold, hate and love..."

"The human world is just a place where you parasitize, and the Milky Way is where your soul wanders..."

"Dream within a dream with an external body..."

Every word and sentence reflects the ups and downs and life accumulation of a generation of filmmakers.

The filmmakers present looked at Chu Yang's young face and listened to his vicissitudes of singing, and found that there was a strange harmony between the two.

For the same song, experienced people and inexperienced people definitely sound different. For the emotions in the song, students are more looking forward to and yearning, while veteran actors naturally have memories and nostalgia.

A song that is not suitable for seeing off, but it is the best farewell gift that students receive.

It took almost no time to prepare, and "A Love Letter to Filmmakers" quickly spread in the class groups and campus forums of the Shanghai Academy of Drama.

No matter which department they are in, almost all of them are caught by this song.

"Where is this? Is it in the magic capital? Are you gone? Is it too late for me to rush over now?"

"Jealousy makes me xxxx!"

"I heard that many seniors and sisters from the acting department went to Chu Yang's crew. Is it true?"

"Just looped "500miles" all night..."

"I cried when I heard it, I feel like this song was written just for me."

"Written for you? Shameless? Does Chu Yang know who you are?"

"What's the name of the song?"

"When will the school invite Chu Yang to give a lecture?"

"I strongly request that Chu Yang be invited to this year's school celebration, otherwise I won't watch it!"

"+1+1."

In Qiu Yuan's class group, many students were also crazy about him.

"Teacher, when will Senior Chu Yang be invited back to class?"

"Teacher, take us to see the senior's crew too."

"Damn it, those people from the acting department are so shameless that they call Chu Yang a big brother?"

"What? Isn't Chu Yang from our directing department? When did he become a senior in the acting department?"

"Teacher, are you still with senior Chu Yang? Can you let him talk to us?"

"For a live broadcast!"

"Same request!"

On the campus forum, the Department of Acting and the Department of Directing quickly started a battle for seniors, while those of other departments kept fanning the flames, which was very lively.

Qiu Yuan shook his head, and said to Chu Yang, "Your juniors in the director department want you to say a few words."

"What's there to say," Chu Yang said, "Study hard and improve every day."

Qiu Yuan really just posted it like this, and said while posting: "The 12th anniversary will be celebrated on December 1st, do you have time?"

"It should be. At that time, Charlotte probably finished even the post-production, and will take a rest for a while, so she shouldn't be busy."

Charlotte Annoyance will be able to finish filming in early October, and the post-production will be finished around the end of October. It will be more than three months before the Spring Festival release.

"Any plans for the future?"

"I'm going to make a TV series next year," Chu Yang said to Han Jia, "I just want to ask my wife for help."

"Finally remembered Master?" Han Jia laughed, "What TV, what role?"

"Journey to the West," Chu Yang took the "Journey to the West" from Ye Lan and handed it to Han Jia, "I would like to ask you to play the role of Guanyin."

There are many characters in "Journey to the West", many of which have to be carefully selected, especially the female characters, each one can not be sloppy, and one can be determined early.

"Oh?" Han Jia took it, but didn't open it, "I have the book, but I didn't expect you to really dare to take pictures."

Qiu Yuan also said: "We have really studied this, it is indeed worth adapting, and we know that you will shoot it sooner or later, but you probably can't eat it now, right?"

"Of course I can't do it myself, let's recruit a few from Dora's family."

"Not too optimistic," Qiu Yuan said, "The investment is too big. Special effects, actors, and persuasion cost money for everything, and there is no way to place advertisements. We can only rely on domestic TV station buyouts and network sharing to pay back the cost. With your current brand, there should be quite a few people following the bet, but it is estimated that you will not make a big bet, the risk is too great."

"I've roughly calculated that if there are movie-level special effects and all the actors, the cost is really scary."

Qiu Yuan was speechless: "Movie-level special effects? Wouldn't it cost hundreds of millions?"

"Burn it and burn it, as long as you don't pay for death."

Before sky-high film remuneration was curbed, various TV dramas that claimed to be sky-high investment abounded, but after the market was regulated, TV dramas with hundreds of millions of investment at every turn were relatively rare.

The Chinese TV dramas that have invested the most so far should be Comet Entertainment's fantasy drama "Jiuxiao" and Ruiying Media's historical drama "Empire 3", both of which were works in the past few years. The ceiling of more than 4000 million US dollars is incomparable, but it is enough to look up to the whole of Asia.

If Chu Yang wanted to shoot "Journey to the West", his investment would only be higher than these two, and it would never be lower than these two.

On Earth, Zhang Jizhong's version of "Journey to the West" claims to cost 8000 million yuan, and it sold for almost [-] million yuan. According to that standard, with the film industry here, I am afraid that [-] to [-] million yuan can be done, but it is not what Chu Yang wants. of.

At least it is at the level of "Western World", "Game of Thrones", and "The Mandalorian".

Han Jia also said: "If it's really a movie, I'm afraid that all the proceeds from "Jing Wu Heroes" won't be enough for it?"

"Fist of martial arts is not enough, there is still Charlotte," Chu Yang said, "This scene has to be filmed after all, so hurry up sooner rather than later, once the IP is done, the next thing is to collect money."

In the eyes of outsiders, Huaguoshan's biggest source of funding is estimated to be "Jing Wu Heroes", and then "The Hidden Corner" and various music revenues. Almost everyone subconsciously ignores the gold-making monster "Pokémon".

The copyright of the game is already being negotiated. Client games, mobile games, stand-alone versions, etc., each item is priced at sky-high prices, but several top game manufacturers, whether it is domestic or Sakura Country, have already broken their heads, and the more they sell, the more popular they are All kinds of peripherals, this treasure has already made Huaguoshan a lot of money since the beginning of development.

"Have you really decided?" Han Jia clapped "Journey to the West" on his hands, "Then I'll start preparing?"

"There's no need to be in such a hurry. The script hasn't been finished yet, and filming won't start until the middle of next year at the earliest."

"You directed it yourself?" Qiu Yuan reached out and rubbed his chin, "Do you want me to find some people to help you? This burden is not light, just all kinds of trivial matters can make you bald."

"I mentioned to Dong Lu that I want to invite him, and then Zhai Bin will be his deputy," Chu Yang said, "I still can't handle such a big project, so I have to practice again."

"You can't say that. You're just asking too much. TV dramas are different from movies. You've even made movies. TV dramas should be at your fingertips."

"I'm sorry for not asking too much for this show..."

Chapter 199 The Queen's Rescue

Some people go, some people come.

It was Zhong Yunqiu who had made an appointment before the filming started, but after he arrived, Chu Yang realized that something was wrong.

According to the script, at this time, Xia Luo became famous and became a well-known singer-songwriter, so Zhong Yunqiu came up with the idea of ​​asking him to sing, but there was a misunderstanding in the middle, and Ma Dongmei ran in blah Zhong Yunqiu's head exploded...

Fortunately, the cooperation was finally completed. Charlotte wrote a song "Singing the Motherland". The two sang together on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala that year, and Charlotte began to really become popular all over the country.

The prototype of this character on Earth is Na Ying, and the producer originally wanted to invite her to play the role, but when she asked how much the movie might have at the box office, the director said 20 billion.

At that time, a movie with a box office of over one billion was already a fortress, so Na Ying probably felt that the two directors were a little outspoken and unreliable, so they rejected it, and the crew had to hire another actor.

But here in Chu Yang, the timeline set in "Charlotte's Annoyance" is that Charlotte travels back from 2021 to 18 years ago, that is, 2003, but Zhong Yunqiu was only a little famous at that time, and it was only a few years before her first time. There are still three years before I receive the invitation to the Spring Festival Gala.

Chu Yang had a headache and said, "I can only change the script..."

The previous ones were all shot in 2003, and now the timeline is more than two years later, and many shots have to be discarded and re-shot.

This is a very common thing in movie shooting. When encountering serious screenwriters or directors who are more rigorous in detail, it is possible to change it every day, but it is a bit low-level for Chu Yang to make this kind of mistake when he is cheating. up.

"No need," Zhong Yunqiu said, "I've already thought about it for you. There was a person who happened to be on the Spring Festival Gala for the first time that year, and her song in that Spring Festival Gala did have some problems, so it's suitable for you to cut in."

"Oh? Who?"

"Xie Lingyu."
