Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

1:30 p.m.

The director of the live entertainment department of Oriental Media sat in his office, looking at the information given by his secretary, frowning.

The Fairy Island of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" will be filmed in the suburbs of Magic City. After the filming is completed, it will be included in the Dongchuan Resort.

What the netizens said makes sense...

Inviting a top star to star in it can also add a layer of popularity to the resort.

Director Chen is the director and screenwriter. Perhaps he has not fully considered the business arrangements. Why not contact him to ask about the situation?

The director hesitated for a while and finally gave up the idea.

Director Chen is the boss of the company, and he is the chief creative officer, not his direct supervisor. The leap-level contact is not very good.

Let's report to the immediate superior, Vice President Zhang who is in charge of the live entertainment department.

Thinking of this, he sent a message to Vice President Zhang first.

Soon, the other party called back.

The director picked up the phone and said, "Mr. Zhang, have you seen the casting discussion for Director Fang's new drama "Legend of Sword and Fairy"?"

"I heard from the secretary, what's going on?"

"From the perspective of the resort, should we persuade Director Chen to resign Fang Zizhou?"

"No, do as Director Chen says."

"Okay."

"Anything else?"

"No, you're busy."

"Okay, you should take a rest." After that, Vice President Zhang on the other side hung up the phone.

Is that actor really that good?

Or does the company have any arrangements?

Never mind, it should be confidential, no guessing.

On the top floor, Vice President Zhang hung up the phone and walked to the coffee machine to get a cup of coffee.

This matter cannot be told to subordinates for the time being.

If this is a fairy puppet show, Fang Zizhou, who has fairy puppet performance experience, is a good choice.

But the company is going to create a martial arts world next.

In the resort, we need to gradually plan an area to realize the dream of immortal heroes and martial arts.

Just like the "Harry Potter area", we will create a highly immersive Jianghu for everyone. Like the flying sword experience area, the task of finding lost treasures, etc.

Then Fang Zizhou's image is not suitable.

If we can't find a suitable newcomer, we can choose him.

But there is a newcomer who has little performance history but can shape the image at will, and this newcomer is also an actor of our own, so of course we choose the newcomer.

However, these plans can only be known by the top management, and cannot be told to the middle-level leaders.

Dongchuan does not plan to build a new theme park or resort for the time being. There are only three theme parks in Shandong Province, Shanghai, and Qiongzhou in China.

If the news leaks out, it will not only have an impact on the film department, TV series department, and network business department, but also the emergence of village-style amusement parks in various places, which will have an impact on real-life entertainment.

Even if everyone doesn't understand why the company gave up the top star and hired a newcomer, even if netizens say that the company is forcing the newcomer, the company's plan must be kept strictly confidential.

It's just hard for the PR department.

...

In the afternoon, the matter continued to ferment on the Internet.

Time quickly came to the evening.

In a townhouse in the capital, Fang Zizhou lay on the sofa, staring at the mobile phone screen projected on the big screen with a smile on his face.

The projection on the wall showed Fang Rong's personal Weibo. Under the latest dynamic, a large number of today's comments appeared.

Looking at the netizens' requests for role changes on the screen, Fang Zizhou breathed a sigh of relief and leisurely swung his feet on the coffee table.

"I refuse Qi Mu to be the male lead of Dong Chuan's new film. Please choose an actor with acting skills and guaranteed performance!"

"That's right. Waiting to change actors after filming dozens of scenes and finding that they are not suitable before changing them will cause greater losses to the crew, right?"

"Don't you think it's good to change them? The actors in the current TV series are filming back and forth. In this drama, ab and cd love each other, and in another drama, ad and cb love each other. I just supported a couple in a TV series, and in another drama, I felt that they both cheated. It's really crazy! Aesthetic fatigue, okay?"

Fang Zizhou frowned. Shouldn't such remarks be suppressed?

Can't be suppressed?

However, it's not a big problem.

These opinions are for netizens to see, but they are even more for brands and TV stations to see.

So what if aesthetic fatigue?

Appeal is what brands value most.

He turned off the screen, sat up straight, took out a pen and paper from the drawer under the coffee table, put on his slippers, and lay on the coffee table, writing down an analysis of the situation on the paper with a pen.

The crew now has several choices.

The first is to clarify that the online rumors are false and choose someone else. Zhou Fan's schedule conflicts, and Fang Zizhou is the best choice. If this path is taken, everyone will be happy. This drama has traffic and funds, and it will be a hit.

The second path is to admit this fact and stand up to speak for the newcomers. Is it necessary for a big director to support newcomers so much? What is the purpose?

The third path is to acquiesce to the facts, not respond, and endure humiliation and invest in filming. By then, the heat will pass, even if the film is well shot, few brands will buy it, and it will not be sold at a very high price. If it is badly shot, it will be even worse.

Fang Rong should have these three paths to choose, right?

If he was Fang Rong, he would definitely choose the first path.

Fang Zizhou twirled his pen and frowned.

It was strange.

He should have been chosen even with his eyes closed. Why would they choose the unknown Qi Mu?

Hmm... maybe because he was their own artist.

Thinking of this, Fang Zizhou suddenly raised his head and the corners of his mouth slowly rose.

I understand! Oriental Media lacks actors of this age, so they want to train one.

And isn't he a ready-made one?

He still has a contract with the company. He can show goodwill to Dong Chuan first. Maybe they will pay to poach him. Then he can successfully transform.

Goodwill, show goodwill...

Yes!

Helping someone in need is a great friendship!

Thinking of this, Fang Zizhou immediately picked up his phone and edited a text to help Dong Chuan clarify.

"Everyone misunderstood. Several of our candidates did not sign a contract with Dongfang Media. Take me as an example. I just sent my resume and auditioned. It is normal for the crew to continue to select people. The selected person must be an actor who meets the requirements of the crew. Thank you for the support of all fans. Please discuss rationally, support the crew, and give them trust."

Fang Zizhou looked at the text on the screen and raised his mouth.

Look at my demeanor!

If not him, who should I choose!

However, this is not to support Qi Mu.

"The person selected must be an actor who meets the requirements of the crew." - This sentence implies that the person selected by the crew should satisfy everyone.

As soon as the dynamic was sent out, a small red dot popped up in the lower right corner of the phone.

Clicking it, it was a comment from fans.

"Zizhou is so generous haha!"

"I will listen to Zizhou and not comment. I will wait for the crew to deal with it."

...

Fang Zizhou put down his phone after reading a few comments and stretched his body.

Go take a hot bath.

Oh, no, I have to bring my phone with me. What if Dong Chuan is anxious and calls him to notify him to join the crew?

15 minutes later.

Fang Zizhou just wet his hair, and he saw the phone in the waterproof bag light up from the corner of his eye.

He wiped the water droplets on his face and raised his hand to open the screen.

It was the message from my agent, Brother Tang: "You... you are such a kind person. Whatever, that's all. You take a good rest and I'll find other work for you. Don't tell anyone else what you think. Remember, don't say anything more."
