After Wang Ming and the screenwriter arrived, they sat down opposite Xu Shen, and Jiang Ke naturally made room for them and sat next to Xu Shen.
Taking care of his younger brother got out of his habit, so Xu Shen casually took his ice water away and stuffed him with a glass of milk and breakfast.
Jiang Ke is very easygoing, he eats whatever Xu Shen gives him, and he doesn't pick at all.
Sitting opposite Wang Ming saw Jiang Ke's rarely obedient appearance, with an expression of seeing a ghost. To be honest, he now very much suspects that Jiang Ke actually has a split personality. The main personality is gentle and quiet, and the secondary personality is cruel and cruel.
"Director Xu." Wang Ming asked first, "Are you looking for us?"
"There are problems with this script. The character arcs, plot lines, and emotional lines are all messed up." Xu Shen pushed forward the script that he had read all morning, and said succinctly, "Three days, re-edit."
The screenwriter didn't even think about it, thinking that this person was crazy: "Impossible, it's too late."
Wang Ming was also confused: "Director Xu, are you kidding me?"
Does Xu Shen really know what he is talking about?Their film has been launched for a week, and now the script has been overturned and rewritten, and the delay due to workload is hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Yes, he knew that the script wasn't very good, but he didn't intend to make a high-quality film, he just messed around.
Xu Shen is a dude who doesn't understand anything, what is his attitude to dare to intervene in the internal affairs of the crew?
"Director Xu, you may have misunderstood." Wang Ming smiled and explained to him from a professional perspective, "Our drama has a relatively large capacity, but the project level cannot keep up, so the standard is not that high. The ones you watched The plot line and the like are trade-offs made in a reasonable way after speeding up the plot rhythm."
"Choose?" Xu Shen chewed these two words playfully, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Is it also a choice to change a brave and resourceful young man with a heart full of the world into a willful and loving mind?"
The original "Cangshen" is a standard upgraded and smooth novel. The protagonist turns into a god in order to save the common people and protect the one he loves. What awaits him is a long and endless night and loneliness;
But in the current script, the protagonist is desperate for his lover, disobeying his teacher, not knowing what is important and urgent, looking for life and death for his lover again and again, and even at the most important ceremony of worshiping heaven, because he recalled the sweet time between himself and his lover And being distracted, the ceremony was abolished, and countless people died tragically in the Shimen.
Seeing this plot, Xu Shen was full of question marks.
"Director Xu, you don't understand the market." Wang Ming explained, "Girls now like to watch this kind of TV about dating. We customize it for them and follow the general trend of the market."
"Do you know why "Cangshen" cannot attract investment?"
Wang Ming: "..."
"Do you know why this project can't be rated?"
Wang Ming: "..."
"It shouldn't be." Xu Shen smiled slightly, "Such a good drama is tailor-made, adapts to the market, makes reasonable choices, and has a clear rhythm. It must be that the investors and partners are blind, right?"
The so-called killing without blood is probably the case. Wang Ming only felt a tight pain in his chest, as if there was old blood stuck in his throat: "...Director Xu, let me tell you the truth."
Xu Shen stretched out his hand and made a gesture of listening: "I would like to hear the details."
"We are too poor and the budget is not enough." Wang Ming finally told the real reason, and the fine lines around his eyes looked particularly vicissitudes at this moment, "There are only two screenwriters in the entire crew, and there is no money for special effects in the later stage, so Delete everything that can be deleted."
"Money is not a problem." Xu Shen was very indifferent, with a sense of déjà vu that he was in control of everything, as if any problem was not a problem for him, he tapped the table twice with his fingers, his usual smile His eyes were sharp at the moment, and he paused every word, "Changing the script first."
Jiang Ke tilted his head to look at him, Xu Shen's expression was very calm, the light refracted from the window scattered around him, at this moment he faded away the smile that had been hanging on his face, and it was no longer so unreachable.
Gentle and powerful, strong in principle, not surprised by changes.
This is the real him.
It was like picking up a shell from the beach. Originally, it was only intended to pass the time and have fun, but after knocking open the shell, he found that there was a priceless treasure hidden inside.
Jiang Ke hooked the corner of his lower lip, feeling that the greedy little beast in his heart was growing wantonly, the closer it got to Xu Shen, the crazier it would be.
Not enough, not enough, want more.
— want more and more.
It's really a miraculous thing. Before Xu Shen came, all major matters were decided by Wang Ming. He was worried about this and that, but Xu Shenyun's light words could make him let go of all his worries, as if he only needed to believe in Xu Shen. Shen, the others, the sky is falling, and Xu Shen is holding on.
Since the financial problem was solved by Xu Shen, it was not impossible to change the script.
Wang Ming felt reassured, and turned his head to discuss with the screenwriter in a low voice the direction of script revision.
Xu Shen noticed Jiang Ke's gaze and turned his head to look over.
Jiang Ke was looking at him without blinking. He was spotted, but he didn't look back. I don't know whether it was intentional or not: "You need a screenwriter."
Of course Xu Shen knew that he needed a screenwriter. When he found that the script was wrong, he checked the screenwriter information of the crew. The two screenwriters were fresh graduates with no experience and no qualifications. It is not bad to be able to change to the current level.
They need experienced people to guide them to change.
In reality, Xu Shen is a graduate of a well-known director university, and has obtained a doctorate degree overseas, and is good at changing plays and directing plays.
But Xu Shen only has one.
But the current situation of "Cangshen" is besieged on all sides: the actors are monsters, the director is half-baked, the script is a mess, and the project has no money, no resources, and no topicality.
Xu Shen took the identity of a rookie, but faced a full-level dungeon, which can be called PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.
The script was rewritten, and the previous scenes were filtered out to keep the available shots. In the afternoon, all the staff held a script discussion meeting.
Xu Shen doesn't touch the ground, he has to find a way to solve the biggest problem of the crew, the funding problem.
For a large-capacity script like "Cangshen", an investment of 100 million yuan is far from enough for this project.
Xu Shen called to ask Xu Bai to pay attention to any friends who are interested in investing in TV dramas recently, and at the same time asked He Duoduo to pay attention to investment news in the circle.
It's definitely not enough to just pay attention to the investors, that's too passive. To put it bluntly, TV dramas are commodities for the investors. If you want to sell the products, you have to show their value in front of everyone, and marketing is what Xu Shen is best at.
For this, Wang Ming pondered for a long time: "Our crew doesn't have any topic, why is it so hot?"
Xu Shen: "The topic has already been brought to your door."
Wang Ming: "?"
On the second day, the topic of the crew with the strongest desire to survive gradually became a hot search topic, and the popularity of the topic gradually rose from the twenties to the top ten, and finally broke into the top ten.
Netizens first started to wonder what crew had a strong desire to survive. After clicking in, they called Sha Sculpture and turned around laughing.
[Entertainment would have known: "Cangshen" is known as a realistic supernatural blockbuster in history, whoever shoots who has an accident, back to haunted, not once haunted, shocked, in order to improve Feng Shui, this crew actually... [Picture] [Picture]]
Click on the picture, it seems to be a photo of the production crew worshiping Zhong Kui when they turned on the phone, and this crew is extremely magical. After worshiping Zhong Kui, everyone posted a slogan of prosperity, democracy, civilization and harmony on the back of their mobile phones.
Several leading actors began to play tricks.
Bai Rou blogged: The successor of socialism has a whole body of righteousness, I am not afraid [狗头.jpg]
The accompanying picture is a photo of Biye curled up in the quilt.
Netizens laughed.
[Since you are not afraid, are you able to speak out from under the quilt? 】
【However, that's not what the sunny doll hanging by your bed said.】
[Hahahahaha they forced you to post it hahahaha, blink if you are kidnapped]
Jiang Ke: I have a nickname, ghosts and sorrows.
[? ? ?If the business is not serious, points will be deducted!Zai Zai, you haven’t posted a photo for a long time]
【you?Ghosts?Zai Zai comes to Ma Ma’s arms~]
【Let me translate, Ghost Seeing Sorrow: Because I saw a ghost, I was so scared that I burst into tears, which made the ghost worry when I saw it. How to coax the little beauty well】
[Hahahahaha the Jimei upstairs is too good!That's what it means! ! 】
Zou Mu: Come on, who is afraid of whom?
The accompanying picture is a photo of himself at night with a flashlight from his chin up.
【The whole thing in Yangjian is ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh】
【Brother, there is someone behind you】
[Ghost: No, no, no, no, no one really wants to fight to the death with me, right? 】
The official teaser is the funniest. As soon as the three leading actors posted a blog, the topic immediately went up, and the hot search also rocketed from the top ten to the top five, almost contracting the happiness of sand sculpture netizens for a whole day.
And the crew of "Cangshen", which is basically no one cares about, was almost ringing with phone calls within a day, and many entertainment journalists wanted to interview this full sand sculpture crew.
Wang Ming looked at this wave of textbook-level marketing and the unprecedented enthusiasm, and felt like he was dreaming.
He has been a director for decades, and this is the first time he has been involved in a project with such a large exposure. He was so excited that his hands were shaking, wondering if he would become famous overnight, and "Cang Shen" became his masterpiece.
But just when he wanted to accept interviews to maintain the enthusiasm, Xu Shen gave all the staff a death order not to accept any interviews.
Wang Ming couldn't figure it out: "If we don't maintain the heat now, should we just wait for the heat to pass?"
Xu Shen said casually: "If you don't accept an interview, at least you can maintain a sense of anticipation and mystery. After accepting an interview, what are you going to say? A protagonist with a love brain? A crew that starts work at ninety in the morning and is so poor that they don't even have money for special effects? "
Wang Ming was speechless again: ...
Everything is going according to Xu Shen's plan, one after another, some people have already contacted He Duoduo, Xu Bai also called: "Xiao Shen, I have noticed for you, there are several companies that have interest in "Cangshen" Interested, I want to talk to you."
Xu Shen has always been out of tune. Although Xu Bai has said many times before that he wants to be a good director, Xu Bai has never taken it to heart, but this time Xu Shen really has two brushes. This makes Xu Bai very happy, and even helps him. Heart a lot.
Xu Bai reported the name of the company. These are small companies. After the application, he asked: "I have read the novel "Cang Shen", and I quite like it. What level do you plan to make it?"
After the TV series are filmed, they will eventually be sold in the form of commodities. Now the video app is the main channel, and the main sales channel is also based on this. When the video software signs the sales contract, the product will be evaluated and graded. Different levels , the selling price is different.
When Xu Bai asked this question, he was already mentally prepared. For example, Xu Shen would whimsically say B-level, but actually getting a B-level contract is already considered a good result.
His brother has always been ambitious, he knows it.
Xu Bai, who was just mentally prepared, heard Xu Shen say without hesitation, "S-rank."
Xu Bai said the prepared lines: "Hey, B-level is a bit high for you... Wait, wait, what did you say?"
Xu Bai was shocked and said, "S-rank? Xiao Shen, this is your first time making a movie."
Xu Shen University majored in business administration, he is a pure rookie, this is his first time filming a TV series, S-rank is no longer a lofty goal, it is completely unrealistic!
"Give it a try." Xu Shen tried to brainwash him, "Brother, set your goals higher, you won't lose money if you lose, and you can earn blood if you win. Do you think this makes sense?"
For a while, Xu Bai was speechless to refute.
Although, you don't seem to have this ability!Have you started dreaming before it gets dark?
Xu Bai is a younger brother, and a qualified younger brother would never say that his younger brother is not good, so he swallowed all his true thoughts, and instead said tactfully: "But, the people who come to me are all small companies, and they don't have enough strength. economic strength."
Not to mention these small companies, even if he sold the company, he wouldn't be able to raise the funds for an S-level project.
"So I didn't plan to consider them." Xu Shen said without thinking, "I already have a goal."
Xu Bai: "Who?"
Xu Shen smiled slightly: "Let's keep it secret for now."
Xu Bai:? ? ?
Why did he suddenly not recognize this younger brother?Is this really his brother who has a bad mind and only knows how to whore men?
Taking care of his younger brother got out of his habit, so Xu Shen casually took his ice water away and stuffed him with a glass of milk and breakfast.
Jiang Ke is very easygoing, he eats whatever Xu Shen gives him, and he doesn't pick at all.
