China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 667 No Top Stream Wants to Get Out of the Door

Not many days later, the filming of the sweet "Hotel Del Luna" started.

This speed is definitely fast in China, but it is average abroad.

Countries and regions like the United States, Silla, and Sakura have very mature film and television industries.

They just need to do some preliminary preparations and then start filming, shooting three to six episodes and broadcasting them directly on TV.

After that, the production team will adopt a method of filming and broadcasting at the same time, and they can adjust the subsequent plot based on audience feedback and real-time ratings.

There are many films that don’t even have a complete script before filming begins, and they dare to start shooting with only a few episodes. The main point is that they are brave.

Their reasons were also very good. Why do they need such a complete script? They didn't even know if the show could survive.

If the performance is not good, the show will be cancelled after only a few episodes.

For them, the first thing is to ensure survival.

Only by surviving can you consider the rest.

From this perspective, it seems that not having a complete script really doesn't matter.

Li Yu personally prefers the mode of shooting and broadcasting at the same time.

The advantages of filming and broadcasting at the same time are obvious. It allows for timely interaction with the audience and adjustment of the plot based on real-time feedback from the audience.

The disadvantage is that the production time is too rushed, so it is easy to have a bad ending.

However, the method of filming and broadcasting at the same time is not feasible in China because of the existence of censorship.

There is no difference between domestic and foreign models in terms of superiority or inferiority. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

First shoot, then review, and then broadcast after obtaining permission.

The advantage is that there is plenty of time to polish the work.

The disadvantage is that the cost of trial and error is high and it is impossible to obtain market feedback in a timely manner.

Li Yu did not fool Da Tiantian and Li Muge, he really came to the filming site of "Hotel Del Luna".

Yang Yang and his agent were somewhat surprised when they heard that Li Yu had really come.

They had heard before that Li Yu was the producer of this TV series, and there were also rumors that Li Yu might intervene in the production process.

This is also one of the main reasons why they accepted Li Muge’s invitation.

With Li Yu here, it’s a sure win.

Yang Yang and his agent also knew that after the hit of Love O2O, they shot several works in a row that received poor reviews.

Yangyang's popularity continues to rise, and his career is becoming more and more prosperous, but he has no outstanding works, which is not a good situation.

This is not just Yang Yang's problem, it is a common problem for almost all young handsome men in China.

Although he is very popular and well-known, he does not have many outstanding works.

This situation is not beneficial to their long-term development.

They are handsome, but what the entertainment industry is not short of is handsome men and beautiful women.

If a young handsome guy relies solely on his looks, his blooming period will not last long.

If you only rely on your looks but have no ability or works, you will be ruthlessly abandoned by capital after the age of 30 as your looks decline.

Capital will immediately turn around and support those younger and fresher talents.

This is also the reason why many young and handsome men quickly become out of fashion after the age of 30.

There are some young handsome guys who usually have bad conduct. Strictly speaking, it is not that they have bad conduct, but they have serious problems. Once the facts are exposed, they will be in trouble immediately.

When this young talent was in his twenties, someone exposed what he had done, but in the end nothing happened because the capital behind him made the move.

The same thing happened again when he was 30, and the situation would be different. His commercial value would have shrunk significantly, and he would be ruthlessly abandoned, because the cost of saving him would be higher than that of training a young talent.

A typical example is a certain signature.

Of course, a very popular young actor may be extremely popular during his peak period, but his popularity will drop drastically as he gets older, so it will be no problem for him to get acting jobs or commercial performances.

There is a saying that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if you are out of date and make money by doing cheap things, you can still earn countless times more than an ordinary person.

However, the huge gap from falling from a top star to a second-tier star is unbearable for many people.

Otherwise, why is it said that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality?
In the past, your junior, a young guy who was not as famous as you, would be polite to you and call you brother and teacher when he saw you.

In a few years, he may pretend not to see you when he sees you.

In the past, when I was filming on a drama set or recording a program at a TV station, I enjoyed a private dressing room. Now I have to share a dressing room with other artists, and my treatment has been reduced in all aspects.

Not all the people around me are good people anymore. Although there are still many good people, there are already quite a few "bad people" who dare not give me face and speak back to me.

These are the effects of declining popularity and reduced salaries, and they are just the tip of the iceberg.

So no star wants to see the day when they become obsolete.

Unfortunately, most people cannot change their outdated ending.

To be popular for three to five years, you need support, luck and good looks.

Those who can remain popular for ten, fifteen, or twenty years, without exception, all have the support of strength and works.

Yang Yang and his team certainly don't want his career to decline in the future.

So even if the rumor that Li Yu would be involved in the production was just hearsay and had not been confirmed, it was still very attractive to them.

Because Li Muge's level is not bad, Li Muge has filmed many good idol dramas.

Even if Li Yu did not interfere with the production, the quality would be guaranteed with Li Muge around.

If Li Yu really intervened, it would have the potential to be a phenomenally popular idol drama.

It is possible that this will be another pinnacle of Chinese idol dramas.

"Yangyang, Director Li is here. Be nicer when you see him. Your image, resume and background are all good enough.

I heard from Director Mu that he suggested to Director Li that you play the leading male role in this play, and Director Li said it was up to Director Mu to decide.

Director Li's evaluation of you is that you are handsome and have positive values. It can be seen that Director Li has a good impression of you.

If you want to make further progress in the film industry, you must get in touch with Director Li, otherwise... you know how difficult it is."

The agent reminded in a low voice.

As an agent, he is really not exaggerating.

After "Love O2O", Yang Yang shot three movies in a row, namely "My Stupid Husband", "Passing by Your World" and "Eternal Love".

He starred in two films, one of which was the second male lead, and the "Eternal Love" co-starring with Liu Yifei was a heavyweight among heavyweights, and the investors lost so much money that they wanted to jump off the building.

This battle brought Yangyang's film career to a standstill.

His next movie was a few years later, it was "Vanguard" in which he and Jackie Chan co-starred.

How to say it, "The Vanguard" and "Eternal Love" are both heavyweight players and recognized as super bad movies.

In the short term, Yang Yang probably won’t have the opportunity to access good film resources, which is why he returned to the TV industry.

Yang Yang also knew that if he wanted to make a difference in the film industry in a short period of time, the best way was to catch Li Yu's express train.

Li Yu is well-known for his nickname that whoever he supports becomes famous.

If Li Yu is willing to support him, his film career will definitely improve.
