At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 659 How can there be any wizards?
I heard a...rumor before, saying that Huang Zhongjun watched the TV series "Red Sorghum" and thought Yu Zhan'ao was really good in it.
I feel that this person is too irresponsible to the company.

There are also rumors that Ma Yun is the laziest CEO in China...

I sleep until 11 o'clock every day, get up, make a drink of tea, then have a casual meal, wander around the company for a while, come back to take a nap, wake up from the afternoon nap and drink tea...

At that time, there were still a bunch of reports saying, "Ma Yun doesn't understand the entertainment industry, business depends on hard work and thinking, but in the mixed entertainment industry, only these two things will never make it to the top!" '

That's right, in those few years, the Huang brothers dominated the Chinese film and television industry. The company's top artists gathered together, and the film and television works produced every year accounted for half of the country.

No matter what you do, there will be a bunch of people kneeling and licking!

This is normal, rich people never lack people who help to publish drafts, Liren set it up... Wang Sicong was a business genius for a while!
Later... the world changed drastically, and no one talked about Huang Zhongjun's routine anymore.

Shen Xudong...not Huang Zhongjun, he rarely took the initiative to make friends with the so-called dignitaries.

No party at home either...

The reason why Wang Kai is not known is very simple - he doesn't care!
He really doesn't care much about the company's artist management business.

Who to sign, who to focus on training...

He doesn't care.

In his view, the core business of Tianmei Media is the production of film and television dramas, and this will never change.

As for cultivating artists...

Piggybacking things.

In fact, an artist's reliance on a brokerage company is only during his growth period, which requires the company to devote a lot of energy and resources to his cultivation. Once he matures, he doesn't need the help of the company, but the company needs the repayment of famous artists.

Therefore, Chen Hao is considered semi-independent now - she has her own studio, she can participate in plays when there are plays, and take on foreign plays when there are no plays.

Most importantly, there is a natural opposition between film and television production and artist brokerage: film and television production always strives to lower actors' pay, while brokers always hope to maximize the benefits for artists, and there are conflicts between the two in terms of interest orientation.

win-win?

quite tough!
Of course, Shen Xudong would not be able to survive with a broken arm...

At this stage, star-making ability is still the core competitiveness of a film and television company!
"33 Days of Broken Love" plus "Scary Step by Step", two completely different characters.

"Scary Step By Step", Wang Kai plays the Eighth Prince, whose image is completely different from Wang Xiaojian.

The production of TV series is relatively fast. First broadcast to gain popularity, and then the movie will be released, and the draft will be released to show off the acting skills. After running it, you can also win the newcomer award.

perfect!

Chen Xi was surprised: ""33 Days of Broken Relationship"...you want to be the director yourself?"

"Yeah...what's the problem?"

"No problem... This book has sold almost 180 million copies. Many people have inquired about the film and television adaptation rights of this book... Two days ago I participated in an event and met Fan Bingbing. She also asked me who Huang Xiaoxian would play. Woolen cloth!"

"…Really."

Shen Xudong suddenly realized that his version of "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is the biggest difference from the original version!
—It is already a bestseller.

The value of IP is infinitely expanded!
Chen Xi is very interested in "33 Days of Broken Relationship": "Huang Xiaoxian, who are you going to find?"

"Look for a newcomer...not even a newcomer, just an actress from my class named Bai Baihe, do you know her?"

Chen Xi's face changed: "Of course I know her...and I also know that she is married!"

"So? You can't act when you're married?"

Ridiculous theory!

Chen Xi looked at Shen Xudong, and said implicitly: "...Married people are different from unmarried people. The public... Not to mention the public, even the circle can't accept this matter... What's more, Bai Baihe's husband is Chen Yufan!"

Very subtle, but Shen Xudong understood...

This is because he is worried that something will happen to the actress with an excuse!
Speechless: "...What are you thinking? I just think she's suitable, no, am I that unbearable in your eyes? I don't like married women!"

Shen Xudong walks the rivers and lakes with two principles: first, he is a bachelor; second, those who communicate in art are also single, at least the unmarried ones;

This is his bottom line!

Chen Xi thought about it for a while, and it seemed that Shen Xudong really didn't have the Meng De gene, so he nodded: "... Then I can rest assured... Then when are you going to shoot?"

"Wait a little longer, there is no suitable schedule this year... that's all right, leave me alone, and go about your own business!"

……

Chen Xi left, and Shen Xudong stopped worrying about "33 Days of Broken Love" for the time being.

The casting problem is solved, the follow-up is the preliminary preparation, and then the shooting time is set...

what?
Actor schedule?

Hehe, Shen Xudong's movie is still the protagonist, as long as the actor is not a fool, he will come to act, even if he is making a movie directed by Chen Da!
Click on the movie box office, and get ready to see the real-time box office of "The Journey to Human Resources".

Oh, at this stage, if you want to know the real-time box office of a movie, you can only use the movie box office - the staff of many theaters will upload the real-time box office to Tieba, and then aggregate it, and the data will come out!

Generally, the hotter the movie, the faster the information will be aggregated.

Later, with professional statistics, the movie box office bar became a place for gossip movies.

After watching for a while, someone knocked on the door again, Shen Xudong looked up helplessly: "Come in!"

It was Zhao Xin who opened the door: "Xudong, I received a script, it's really well written."

"Oh? What script?"

Shen Xudong became interested, and it is rare for Zhao Xin to think that the script is "really well written".

Zhao Xin immediately lowered the script, with three characters on the cover: bitter bamboo forest.

"Bitter Bamboo Forest"?
never heard of that…

Shen Xudong immediately looked through it, "Bitter Bamboo Forest" is indeed an amazing script. It pays tribute to "Seven Samurai" and has its own style!
"Bitter Bamboo Forest" tells how farmers in a village cooperated with the government to arrest two robbers, how the two robbers violently resisted the law and killed and injured many officers and soldiers, how the villagers dealt with the robbers tactfully and then secretly reported the crime, only to be arrested by the officers and soldiers The story of an accidental injury that led to the death of the whole village...

The core meaning of this script: officials are scarier than bandits.A bandit just wants a little money from you, if you don’t have anything, just forget it; an official wants not only your money, but also your life, and in the name of justice.Bandits still have humanity, but officials have no humanity.Bandits treat you like a human being, and officials treat you like a pig or dog.

always feel very familiar...

"Who wrote this?"

"Yang Shupeng...the director of "Movie Legend"!"

"Oh, he..."

I thought it was a genius who had never been exposed to film and television...

It's a bit taken for granted. For so many years in the film industry, except for Guo Jingming, no real outsider has entered the film industry.

Uh, "Movie Legend" is a program produced by Cui Yongyuan.

It is said that when Yang Shupeng applied for the CCTV program "Tell the Truth", Xiao Cui felt that the young man was not bad, and knew that the young man had watched many old movies, so he collaborated on an old movie show - "Movie Legend"...

One of the two is the chief director of the show, the other is the host of the show. Yang Shupeng stayed in "Movie Legend" for 3 years, but later the two gradually drifted away until they separated. Some people said that Yang Shupeng was squeezed out by Cui Yongyuan and left CCTV...

I can't say it clearly, but there must be contradictions.

When Yang Shupeng later promoted the movie, he specifically said, "The prototype of the relationship between the two protagonists in the movie is the relationship between me and a well-known CCTV host. It is about friendship from trust to betrayal."

Oh, Shen Xudong remembered, "Bitter Bamboo Forest" is actually "My Tang Dynasty Brothers"...
