There is a bar in Houhai

Chapter 582 Producer

Someone once summarized the work of a producer as "selecting books, finding money, forming a team, and selling films". Although it is not very accurate, it basically tells the main scope of work of a producer.

Qin Mohan's "The Whirlwind Girl" is no exception. She has already selected the script. From the pile of scripts given by the company's planning department, she picked out this relatively simple script to practice.Another reason is that this drama has a total of about 30 episodes, and the production budget given by the company is 3000 million, which is one of the relatively small budgets. Qin Mohan is not worried that he will lose it.

Because the second step of "finding money", which is more difficult for others, is not challenging in her hands.

Since it was reported that she was going to be the producer of the drama "Tornado Girl", many brands have offered to sponsor her.Tianyu Media in Hunan Province invested 20% of the investment and provided the filming venue. Kiwifruit promised to bear half of the production budget in order to compete with Goose Factory Video for the right to premiere on the Internet.

After learning that this is an inspirational film and television drama about martial arts competitions, Clover offered to sponsor 300 million yuan, plus all martial arts uniforms.Others such as Warwick Mobile, Qoros Auto, XX Bank, XX Beverage, etc. The filming of this movie has not yet started, and the production cost has been fully recovered.

Qin Mohan is not worried about the step of "selling movies". Mango Satellite TV behind Tianyu Media has promised that as long as the quality is good, they will purchase at the most reasonable price.She is now preparing for the "group team".

Qin Mohan personally acted as the producer of this TV series, the executive producer was Linda's former assistant Yu Qian, and You Danni of Tianyu Media was responsible for maintaining the filming affairs as the producer.The person in charge of the outreach is Wu Yufei, the newly hired assistant of Shen Fang and Qin Mohan.

Yu Qian has worked with Linda in Shanghai Wild Fox Company for two years, and is already familiar with the TV drama production department.She couldn't bear Linda's eyes that wanted to bend her all the time, so she tactfully proposed to change jobs.In the end, Linda knew that Qin Mohan needed manpower, so she recommended her to this side, which can be regarded as maintaining the two-year cooperative friendship between the two.

Not only the executive producer was recommended, even the main actors were equally divided by several film and television companies and studios.

The heroine of "The Whirlwind Girl" is Ruobai, and Qin Mohan directly chose Bai Yiting. After the movie "Back to 20" was released, the audience responded well to him. He already has many fans and has become a new batch of fresh meat candidates.

The second male number, Fang Tinghao, was given to Tianyu Media's Chen Xiang. This male artist who became popular with "Happy Boys" is the latest promotion object of Tianyu Media.

The heroine Qi Baicao chose the actress Hu Bingqing who is about to be promoted by Yiren Film and Television. After Gu Xuan stated that she wanted to go to the movie cafe, Cai Yinong planned to support a TV cafe to come out.Jin Chen, Chen Yao and Hu Bingqing all have the chance to become the first sister of the new TV series.

Xu Lu, recommended by Rong Zhixin, Fan Xiaoying, the second female lead, once played Xue Baoqin in "The New Version of A Dream of Red Mansions". She is considered to be an actress Li Xiaowan is currently planning to launch.If the response of the first season of "Tornado Girl" is good, she will be the heroine of the second part.

The third female number Fang Tingyi was given to Li Xia by Qin Mohan. As an artist who walked out of the bar, she performed well in "The Year in a Hurry", and Qin Mohan also wanted to support her.

After filming "Langya Bang", Wu Lei, who was signed by Zhang Jiajia to travel the world, was also called by Qin Mohan to play Yu Chuyuan, who likes the heroine.I haven't seen her for a year, but his height has gone from 1.6m to 1.7m[-]. When he came to the company to sign a contract a few days ago, he specially compared Jin Yaran and Qin Ruoxi, and now he can finally feel proud.

He Xiaobao also appeared as a supporting role in it, and he and Yang Xiaoli will play a pair of happy lovers in this play.

Some other supporting roles were also divided equally by the reserve personnel of several companies.Qin Mohan's first film as a producer will definitely attract wide attention from the outside world. If he can perform well in it, it will be a shortcut to success.

Even Qin Mohan's variety show "Chinese Restaurant", after she revealed that she wanted to find a boy as a waiter, was taken by Xiaosheng Yu Xiaotong recommended by Rong Zhixin.

Qin Mohan also complained to Shen Fang that the first time he made a film, it turned out to be like a peach.How many are in your family and how many are in my family? If your family chooses a heroine, then my family will have the second male lead, and the rest of the family will have the second female lead and the third female lead. Anyway, it needs to be balanced.

Shen Fang smiled and said, "As the proprietress, you can be tougher."

"This is not good, not to mention Tianyu's Mr. You, but our company's sister Zhang, Mr. Cai and Mr. Li. None of them are easy to evade. In this circle, you can't let yourself be too much." Qin Mohan said to Shen Fang: "I have greeted them all, and I can help them take them, but they must be obedient and act well, otherwise don't blame me for driving them back."

Zhang Jiajia once suggested that Yang Xiaoli be the heroine, but was rejected by Qin Mohan.Although Qin Mohan knew Yang Xiaoli very well, and liked this lucky little girl very much, but her acting skills were really lacking. Good looks didn't mean good acting skills, it still required a certain amount of talent and later tempering.

After confirming these lists, Qin Mohan still fulfilled his duties as a producer, notifying them one by one to come and try out the play, and then, as a "senior", commented on them and arranged for them to make a surprise attack on the deficiencies as soon as possible training.

After all, Qin Mohan's identity is there, and these actors don't need to be told by their agents, and they all accept their advice honestly.In addition, they both debuted not long ago and haven't been contaminated by the messy habits in the entertainment industry, so when they gathered together for training, they were all considered harmonious, and there were no gangs and mutual exclusion.

Qin Mohan also made a presupposition. After all, boys and girls around the age of 20 are the most difficult to manage, and they are also the most arrogant, and they are not convinced by each other.

So besides arranging teachers to train them in acting, Qin Mohan also trained them in movements.

Although this drama shows Yuanbudo, what it really shows is Taekwondo.There are many action scenes in it, and the actors must have certain skills.The eight-character open and one-character open are the most basic movements, and the whirlwind three consecutive kicks are required to be able to be played normally.

Now listening to the movement director report, after about half a month of training, these boys and girls are so tired all day long that they don't even have the energy to calculate each other.

On May 25th, Qin Mohan made a special trip to the company in Shanghai, gathered the heads of various departments of the crew, and held a discussion meeting.

This was the first meeting of the directors of the crew of "The Whirlwind Girl". Before, Qin Mohan had communicated with them alone, but today was the first time that they were called together for a meeting.

Qin Mohan looked at the people in the conference room in front of him, executive producer Yu Qian, director Liu Jie, assistant director Liu Juan, screenwriters Ming Xiaoxi and Zhu Ming, outreach producer and financial coordinator Wu Yufei, action director Zhang Lifeng, director of drama Li Min, as well as the directors of the photography team, art team and props team.Producer You Danni had something to do in Star City, so she couldn't come to attend.

"Hi everyone, I'm Qin Mohan, the producer of this film." Although everyone knew her, Qin Mohan introduced himself and emphasized his identity: "This is the first film and television film that I officially serve as a producer." To be honest, I was very nervous and uneasy. When I filmed "Back to 20" last time, although I was named as a producer, the specific work of that drama was basically done by Produced by Chen Ling and directed by Li, so "The Whirlwind Girl" still needs your support."

Qin Mohan first mocked himself very modestly, then stood up and thanked the heads of various departments present, and everyone hurriedly expressed their fear.

"Director Liu, you are an old senior. If you have any suggestions, you can tell me directly. Most of the actors in the crew this time are newcomers to our company. There are some acting problems that need your guidance."

Liu Jie said modestly: "The quality of these actors is quite good, their acting skills are a little rough, just pay attention."

After the production of "A Little Smile Is Allure" last year, Liu Jie signed his agency contract to Wild Fox Company.Knowing that Qin Mohan was looking for an experienced director to direct the film, Liu Jie recommended himself.Qin Mohan is also quite satisfied, the two have already collaborated on "Shan Shan Is Coming", and they are relatively familiar with each other.Moreover, Liu Jie has achieved outstanding results in youth idol dramas. With his help, the quality can be guaranteed.

Qin Mohan thought for a while and then said: "Director Liu, there is one more thing, we have signed a few sponsors, but don't be too blunt in the placement of advertisements, the clover exercise uniforms and sneakers can appear when needed, not all the shots They are all in sportswear. And it is not suitable to drink milk after exercising. At that time, don’t give them milk directly for the request of advertisers. If it is not possible, ask Feifei to contact another energy drink sponsor. Can’t let the later broadcast After it was released, the audience complained about our ad placement, and it was a bit embarrassing."

"Okay, we'll pay attention to this." Liu Jie and Wu Yufei nodded and wrote it down.

Qin Mohan nodded, and continued: "We plan to report on the drama "Tornado Girl" on June 6, hold a press conference, and officially start filming on June 6. Feifei, how is the shooting location arrangement?"

Wu Yufei heard Qin Mohan's question and took out her notebook to report: "We have reached an agreement with Mango TV in Star City to use their filming base in Star City. At present, the venue of Songbai Gymnasium has been completed, and all the fitness training equipment inside has been completed. In place."

Qin Mohan ticked this item in his small notebook, and then asked the action director Zhang Lifeng: "Director Zhang, how are the actors practicing?"

……

As a producer for the first time, Qin Mohan kept detailed records of all the workflow in his notebook.Today's meeting is also the same. She will implement the questions that she can think of one by one. After each department's inquiry is over, she will make a mark on her small notebook. The five-pointed star represents the relative importance of this matter.

Everyone admired Qin Mohan's meticulous record keeping. No matter when, people who do things seriously are worthy of respect.

Finally, Qin Mohan explained to Yu Qian: "Sister Yu, I will start filming "Chinese Restaurant" on June 6th, and it will end on July 25th. During this period, I will trouble you and Mr. You from Tianyu to help watch gone."

Yu Qian nodded. After all, Qin Mohan had just explained the specific things clearly. She just needs to follow the supervision: "I will pay attention to this. If there is any problem, I will notify you as soon as possible."
