City: Become a principal from junior college!

Chapter 372 Black Lotus’s Ascension Manual!

In the entertainment industry, there are countless things like hiring trolls to post messages and troll celebrities.

Whenever a female celebrity participates in any event, she will immediately post dozens of announcements to impress someone.

The person who is compared the most in China is Liu Tianxian.

Every actress has to step on Liu Tianxian several times a year.

There are countless overt and covert fights between celebrities.

Male celebrities are no exception.

And since Zhao Maimai went to Star Academy.

Because he is famous but blocked by the circle, he has become the favorite target of the little flowers.

Act in a TV series to compare Zhao Maimai.

Attend an event and bring out Zhao Maimai for comparison.

Behind this, there are obviously circles such as Beijing Film and Television Group that are adding fuel to the flames.

"But the students in the screenwriting class recently proposed a very new thing in the group. I think we can try it."

Just make a video. The protagonist starts by washing his wife's feet, then is humiliated by his wife's family, his love rival, and finally his men suddenly arrive to greet the Dragon King...

By blocking Zhao Maimai, he showed his influence.

But his friend soon said something that surprised Zhao Maimai: "We definitely don't have time to film the drama."

"Not just any little cat or puppy can touch our Mai Mai Ci."

Zhao Maimai is full of confidence in his college.

When Zhao Maimai was in school, she often saw articles that criticized her, and even some photos were deliberately made ugly.

He even stepped on Zhao Maimai in a crazy 360-degree manner, harvesting the ecological niche and fans that originally belonged to Zhao Maimai.

"So let's talk about it later."

Zhao Maimai's eyes turned into crescent moons and she said softly: "Okay, okay, the teacher said that we should study with peace of mind during our freshman year, and we are not allowed to take leave to go to any crew."

Comparing all aspects, Zhao Maimai was reduced to nothing.

I just need to study hard and wait for when the academy starts filming movies and TV series.

Finally, it ended abruptly after the male protagonist smiled crookedly and showed his iconic expression.

But I got used to it later.

But now there is no crew outside that would invite me.

In just two minutes of video, the plot has various twists and turns and countless twists and turns.

Something very new?

What is it?

Zhao Maimai was a little curious when he heard this.

"We should make a costume drama and slap them in the face."

Especially the new little girl from Beijing Film Academy.

Today's film and television industry is either TV series or movies.

Some time ago, the promotion of online novels on short video platforms was very popular.

He even comforted his friends in turn: "Okay, okay, don't be angry. It's normal for celebrities in the entertainment industry to do this."

Just let them be and think of it as a way to sharpen yourself.

"Let everyone know what dimension reduction strike is!"

Then create a more popular star than Zhao Maimai, thus proving that the entertainment industry is still dominated by people like them.

"If you are so easily influenced, then when you become popular, you will be pissed off several times a day when you see those troll posts on the Internet."

So now that Zhao Maimai is feeling unperturbed as he sees the TV series released in his place by a new student from Beijing Film Academy and another wave of negative marketing campaigns on the Internet.

Even the number of endorsements has to be compared.

Zhao Maimai was watching this type of video and felt it was too crude...

Zhao Maimai felt warm in her heart that her friend was angry on her behalf.

What else can I take?

My friend hurriedly explained: "When we were watching short videos some time ago, you always saw the commercial for the Crooked Dragon King, right?"

"When the time comes, we will act in a play together and slap them in the face."

Let them be.

So I can only think about it.

The classmate was still dissatisfied: "Humph, anyway, she is not as good as you in everything. I read online that your acting skills are not as good as hers, and she doesn't have her temperament when acting in a costume drama. It's so funny that she obviously has facial paralysis, but she has to be played like a cold and noble concubine. Expression, right?”

Zhao Maimai would be angry at first.

Zhao Maimai actually enjoys the process of acting.

You don't need to think about it to know that it must be Beijing Film and Television Films that wants to prove its star-making ability.

The college also strictly prohibits freshmen from taking time off for acting.

When his friend said this, Zhao Maimai reacted immediately.

I just can't complain.

But it is indeed very attractive.

Makes you wonder what happens next.

If Zhao Maimai didn't like reading novels, he probably would have clicked in and read it.

However, when Zhao Maimai came home this time, he saw his father reading Dragon King novels when he was fine. He felt that he had probably fallen into this trap by watching such short videos.

But why would my friend bring this up?

Is it possible that you also plan to shoot this kind of silly advertisement?

Then what do you do? The heroine who makes the protagonist wash her feet? This is too shameful.

Even if Zhao Mai Mai wanted to shake his head, he said he couldn't accept it.

But my friend continued: "My classmates in the screenwriting class said this model is very interesting..."

"Remove all the foreshadowing and only show the climax to the audience, link by link, thus attracting the audience."

“Especially now in the era of fragmentation, many people no longer watch long-form videos, and they rely on short video explanations to watch TV series and movies.”

"So they plan to learn from the characteristics of short video advertisements such as Dragon King's Journey and make a series of this type."

"An episode only lasts two or three minutes, and the TV series takes forty minutes to complete the story."

"According to the routine of online novels, there are all kinds of things. Yes, they say they are pretending to slap the face, defeating monsters and leveling up, so that the audience will have climaxes one after another, and they will not be able to stop..."

"It will definitely be super awesome."

"That classmate just asked in the group whether any students in the acting class were interested. Everyone thought it was quite interesting."

"By the way, everyone also discussed a name for this kind of drama of ours, and that is called short drama."

The corner of Zhao Maimai's mouth twitched at her best friend's words...

The orgasms come one after another and I can’t stop.

What kind of tiger-wolf talk is this?

What do the male students in the screenwriting class think about every day?

However, what her best friend said made Zhao Maimai look thoughtful.

Condensing the contents of an episode of a TV series into a few minutes?

This sounds quite interesting.

Zhao Maimai has been a child star and is very familiar with the TV drama industry.

Because the copyright price of a TV series is linked to the number of episodes and the total duration.

Therefore, there are often crews who spend all kinds of time in order to make more money.

There are countless comments from netizens complaining that the TV series is too watery.

It is also true that the pace of the TV series is too slow, which makes the audience impatient to watch it.

Unless it is a particularly good TV series, it is said that more and more viewers will choose to fast forward during the movie viewing process.

The website even launched the function of watching at double speed and triple speed.

Even if they don't watch it directly, there are also many people who choose to watch TV series through short video explanations.

In this case, it seems quite interesting to condense the plot into a short drama with only key plots.

And just like the Crooked Dragon King, it only requires a few people to say a few words in the room and a few men in suits to shoot it.

Both cost and shooting time will be short.

I guess it won't be a big problem to shoot more than a dozen episodes in one day.

No need to ask for leave at all.

"Do you have a script?"

Zhao Maimai asked with an interested smile.

"A classmate in the screenwriting class sent the scripts of the first ten episodes to let everyone see if they work."

"It's a palace battle drama."

"The heroine enters the palace, upgrades and fights monsters along the way, and finally outlasts the emperor and successfully kills the empress dowager, her mother-killer's enemy, as a revenge story."

"Don't tell me, the plot is ridiculous, but it's really good."

"The heroine's revenge and slap in the face are completely non-existent. It's much more enjoyable than those frustrating TV series."

After hearing what his friend said, Zhao Maimai opened the group chat and found the script.

Soon he also laughed. One episode only has two to three hundred words.

The heroine is either on top or pretending to get revenge by slapping her in the face.

It has the flavor of The Legend of Zhen Huan.

It's just the most condensed version.

Without the foreshadowing plot, the story develops straight forward and sometimes feels a bit abrupt, but it does seem very interesting.

The protagonist looks like a white lotus, but revenge does not take overnight.

I was bullied in the last chapter, and I have to get my place back in the next chapter.

Not only can he pretend to be a white lotus in front of the emperor, but he can also slap his opponent hard in the face without anyone around him, and by the way, he can also say "do I need to choose the right time to hit you?".

And the pace of this story is really fast. In just ten episodes, the protagonist has been promoted three levels in a row from a show girl who just entered the palace.

If this were placed in a traditional TV series, it would be enough to cover fifteen episodes.

Although it seems a bit outrageous, the top is really top.

After reading the ten-episode script, even Zhao Maimai felt a little unfinished.

"It's really interesting."

"There are such talented female students in the screenwriting class. She has a great future."

Zhao Maimai feels that a screenwriter who can write something like this is a real talent.

Hearing this, my friend was delighted: "Mai Maiyi guessed wrong. The screenwriter is not a girl, but a boy."

Zhao Maimai was stunned when he heard this...

Is it a boy?

How could a boy know Gong Dou so well?

real or fake?

Sensing Zhao Maimai's astonishment, her friend chuckled: "I didn't expect that the male classmate in this screenwriting class is also a novelist, and he also writes a female-channeled palace fighting drama. I heard that he is a great author in JJ. There are some Lots of fans.”

"But when we asked him what works he wrote, he never said, he is a cheapskate..."

A boy writes a female-channeled online novel, and he is still a master...

This……

Zhao Maimai felt helpless to complain for a while.

I can only lament that our Star Academy is indeed full of talented people.

The friend obviously hopes that he can also participate in the filming of the short drama.

Zhao Maimai thought about this and agreed.

In fact, in the film and television industry, the chain of contempt is particularly obvious.

Those who act in movies look down on those who act in TV series, those who act in TV series look down on those who act in web dramas, and those who act in web dramas look down on those who shoot music videos.

As for this short skit that the students did randomly, I guess the chain of contempt is still below the MV.

If the entertainment industry knew that I was filming this, I would definitely face another round of ridicule.

He said that he really couldn't survive, so he could only entertain himself by shooting this kind of thing.

But Zhao Maimai has been scolded for half a year, and he is somewhat immune to it.

Just let them say it.

I haven't filmed in a long time, so I can still have fun with my classmates.

Moreover, the heroine is sassy and refreshing, and her revenge is not overnight. It will definitely be fun to play such a role.

So after agreeing to my friend.

Zhao Maimai spoke in the group chat and raised his hand to express that he also wanted to participate.

The appearance of Zhao Maimai, who often dives, immediately made the already excited students even more excited.

The discussion suddenly became more heated.

The screenwriter even directly designated Zhao Maimai as the heroine.

This treatment is related to the fact that Zhao Maimai has acted in TV series before and is a small star.

But it also has something to do with Zhao Maimai's popularity.

Although he is a star, he never shows off in front of his classmates.

Regardless of whether you are a boy or a girl, if your classmates want to add WeChat, they can add WeChat.

The whole class will also be invited to drink milk tea.

Therefore, Zhao Maimai is very popular among the first film and television major students.

All of a sudden, students from all classes jumped out.

"Oh ho, I want to participate too, in the same frame as Mai Mai. I want to play the role of the eunuch who was slapped by Mai Mai in the second episode. Mai Mai, don't be polite. Just slap him for real when the time comes. We focus on a sense of realism. Two more slaps. It’s okay once.”

"Maimai, don't believe him. This guy is a pervert. Don't reward him!"

"Tsk tsk, with a big star like Mai Mai participating, it feels like our short play is no longer a small show, it is a big production."

"Mai and Mai are all participating, let's get started!"

"We definitely need costumes for filming. How can we do this? Are we going to rent them?"

"The costumes are a bit troublesome. We have to purchase a batch. We must have eunuchs wearing palace maid uniforms. And no matter how much we save money, the concubines must also look good in their clothes. After all, the heroine of a palace drama must be good-looking. Where will the money come from?"

"The emperor's clothes can't be too bad, otherwise the sense of inferiority will be too strong."

"How about we make it together? For example, headwear, jewelry, earrings, etc., buy plastic ones from Pinxixi, a pair only costs two or three yuan, and the whole crew only needs three to five hundred to finish it. Then be careful when polishing it. It won’t stretch your hips too much.”

"Just leave the shooting and editing to us. As for the camera and lighting equipment, I think we can borrow them from the college. The teacher won't refuse us. And if it doesn't work, we can use our mobile phones to shoot..."

"The shooting locations were also reduced as much as possible, and the outdoor scenes were set in the Royal Garden as much as possible. The bridge in the People's Park is quite antique, and it can be directly used as the location of the Royal Garden. The most important thing is that there is no admission fee."

"I know a hotel for the on-site scene. It was designed to look like a royal resort in the Ming Dynasty. The lobby is like a grand hall and the rooms are like a palace. We will open a room for a week and discuss with the front desk about using the lobby. That's it. This is the inside view, but the house price is a bit expensive, it will cost tens of thousands in a week."

"Screenwriter, please be careful when writing the subsequent plot. Don't make any big scenes."

"It's okay. Just don't ask for props for big scenes. People are not valuable. Just grab some people from other departments to be extras. Don't worry about the lunch boxes."

"Let the students in the logistics class coordinate and see how much it will cost to take the photo. Then we can crowdfund it..."

"I'll pay five hundred yuan..."

"I had 6,000 yuan as a new year's gift, and I spent it all just for the chance to film with Mai Mai."

The students are very enthusiastic.

Zhao Maimai couldn't help but smile.

Although the preparation of the whole play seems like child's play.

It's even worse than the worst crew Zhao Maimai has ever seen.

When looking for extras, they don’t care about lunch boxes.

But to be honest, it's quite interesting.

In Zhao Maimai's opinion, labor costs are not included.

After filming this short drama, it will probably cost 100,000 yuan to complete.

This little money is nothing to the little rich woman Zhao Maimai.

However, Zhao Maimai did not take over everything.

I just plan to spend a little more while waiting for crowdfunding.

It's not that Zhao Maimai is reluctant.

But when getting along with classmates, it may not be a good thing to blindly do everything.

Zhao Maimai, who has been on the set since childhood, understands these worldly things best.

……

The group chat is still lively.

The entire film and television major students basically participated in the discussion after hearing the news.

However, the script has not yet been written, and it is difficult for the students to estimate the shooting time and cost.

So in addition to discussing, everyone just urged the screenwriter to hurry up.

The screenwriters also spontaneously formed a group.

Try to finish a hundred episodes of scripts within a week.

The entire New Year's holiday that follows.

The large group of film and television majors was very lively.

Although their work is not even considered a small production for the entire film and television industry, it is not even as high as the investment amount of most music videos.

But this is the students’ first work.

It is of extraordinary significance, and of course we attach great importance to it.

Even if we have no money or resources, we still want to do our best, so we all work together and have a full sense of participation.

It also vividly demonstrates the characteristics of college students who like to use love to generate electricity!
