After a pause, Teacher Bai said calmly, "He's not stupid. He knows everything he needs to know and won't embarrass himself."

Director Wei shrugged.

That's right.

This is very consistent with the film that Director Wei is about to shoot.

Milk tea is not stupid.

She already knew in her heart whether Dong Ge was a good person or not.

Of course, Wang Shao is not stupid.

He fell in love with Teacher Bai at first sight and got married in 20 days. Could it be that Teacher Bai was really infatuated with him?

Is there a shortage of handsome men in the entertainment industry?

Are you short of rich men?

What could be so good about Young Master Wang that would make Teacher Bai fall in love with him at first sight?

The things that made Teacher Bai fall in love at first sight are now long gone, and we still expect Teacher Bai to remain a virgin.

That's too much of an insult to Wang Shao's intelligence.

Director Wei doesn't think Wang Shao is that kind of fool.

"Anyway, if you have any trouble, please feel free to contact me, and keep your schedule clear for the second half of the year."

Teacher Bai was stunned and asked curiously, "We're filming the second season in the second half of the year? Aren't we going to wait until the first season is released?"

"No need."

Director Wei said confidently, "The results won't be bad."

Teacher Bai couldn't refute it.

Director Wei may still fail in making movies. After all, movies are a one-time deal, and the chances of them not being good are very high.

But it is extremely difficult for Director Wei to fail in filming a TV series.

In particular, the criteria for judging the performance of TV series are far more vague than those of movies.

Just look at the box office and peripheral products to see whether it is worth launching a sequel.

TV dramas are different.

As long as the performance is good, it is normal to make a sequel.

Even if the performance is not good, there are still plenty of sequels.

Even if the movie has good reputation, a sequel can be made.

To put it bluntly, the requirements for TV series are lower than those for movies.

Truly high-end technology and talent should be showcased more through movies.

After Director Wei finishes filming this movie, he will continue to focus on making movies.

You can shoot TV series, but it cannot be your main job.

“It’s the first season this year, and the second season should be next year, so the gap won’t be too long.

If possible, I would like to introduce the overseas model of "production and broadcast at the same time", so that the audience does not have to wait too long and everything is determined by ratings."

The general domestic production model is to broadcast after production is completed.

There are many plays where the actors lose all their money.

After production, many programs cannot be broadcast due to "technical reasons".

It’s not that this is necessarily a bad thing to do.

But the risk is definitely high.

And it has a stronger gambling connotation.

Foreign Hollywood, including Korean dramas, generally broadcast the films while they are being produced, and decide whether to continue filming based on ratings and performance.

The pros and cons of doing this are very clear, it is not all advantages.

The simplest thing is that as long as the ratings drop, even if a drama is not completed, it will be immediately cancelled or have an unfinished ending.

There are many such examples abroad.

Because the production model is generally long, screenwriters don't need to submit a complete script. Producers can't guarantee consistent quality throughout a long, continuous storyline, leading to inconsistent quality and prone to poor endings. "Prison Break" is a prime example. The first and second seasons of "Prison Break" were excellent, and it's no exaggeration to call them classics. However, the quality of the later seasons declined significantly, culminating in a near-abrupt conclusion.

The reason was that during the production of Prison Break, there was a screenwriter strike, and the replacement of screenwriters led to a decline in the quality of the script.

As long as you don't finish shooting in one go, this situation is difficult to avoid.

Therefore, American TV series often have one story per episode, and there are fewer long series, which is caused by the model of filming and broadcasting at the same time.

But everything has two sides.

The disadvantages are obvious, but the advantages are also obvious.

For investors, the risks are clearly controllable. Once the ratings are poor, they can cut the production in time to stop the losses and avoid losing all their money.

For the audience, being ratings-oriented also prevents bad dramas from surviving for long, which is beneficial to the audience's physical and mental health.

No matter how bad the reputation of a domestic drama is, once it is aired, it will basically be broadcast to the end, and the audience will have only one option: to abandon the show.

If the show is filmed and broadcast at the same time, the producers will just give up without the audience having to abandon the show.

This will force the producers to improve the quality of the series.

Under the internal circulation, the quality of the drama will only improve.

Moreover, since the investment is small, the risk of trial and error is also small, and the producers can try different themes and styles.

We can see films of various themes in American TV series, such as science fiction, fantasy, spy war, horror, sitcom, crime, etc. The audience's choices are more diverse to meet the tastes of different groups of people.

It is different in China, because the show must be filmed before it can be broadcast. In order to be safe, investors will inevitably choose the show that is most likely to make a profit, so following the trend is the way to go.

After a certain subject becomes popular, there is a rush to start filming such films and TV stations to broadcast such films. This is a common situation because the risk of trial and error is too great.

Reducing the risks for producers will create more possibilities.

Director Wei doesn’t think this model will necessarily be better in China, but there is no doubt that if you don’t try it, it will definitely not be better.

Which model is superior needs to be compared in practice.

As the current leader of the industry, Director Wei has the obligation to do something and the responsibility to make some changes.

If we really want to change this model, the most difficult part is not the platform, the investors, or the audience, but the relevant departments.

This model is obviously beneficial to audiences, investors and broadcasting platforms. The only thing it weakens is the power of the relevant responsible departments.

But when something benefits the vast majority of people, it is obvious who should give in.

The world has been changed. Although Director Wei is not arrogant, he is not timid and submissive. He speaks out when he needs to.

Jack Ma is so arrogant that he even confronted the banks, the richest man Wang wants to transfer his assets abroad, and Director Wei has done nothing and the challenge he is facing is not something that cannot be touched, so his hope of success is not small.

Teacher Bai is an insider, so he naturally knows how difficult it would be to put what Director Wei said into action. He was very surprised when he heard it: "Director Wei's model is good, but it weakens the power of those in charge, so the resistance should be considerable."

Director Wei said calmly, "That's why I'm personally here. There will definitely be resistance, but I can't refuse to change just because there's resistance."

Teacher Bai was a little confused: "Director Wei, there's no need for you to cause trouble for yourself, right? You've already achieved your golden body, so why would you want to make things difficult for them?

As long as you don't provoke them, they won't provoke you."

“If I don’t look for trouble, no one in the entertainment industry will dare to look for me.

If we always find problems with celebrities, this circle will never get better and will only get worse.

Director Wei never thought that the atmosphere in the entertainment industry was corrupted by celebrities.

As always, our original intention remains unchanged.

What is the status of celebrities in this industry chain and what can they decide?

Before the incident involving Sister Eight Hundred Million, she was ranked first on the Forbes Celebrity List every year, and was always among the top in terms of status, popularity, and even power in the entertainment industry.

Then after Sister Eight Hundred Million was dealt with, the entertainment industry became better? That's not the way it sounds.

The Chinese entertainment industry will definitely not get better by killing a few stars and making a few classic movies.

If we only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, prosperity will be like rootless duckweed, temporary and disappear in a flash.

Only by making some changes from the root can we really hope to break down and rebuild, and completely transform this circle.

Director Wei naturally has the responsibility for some things.

A hint of admiration flashed in Teacher Bai's eyes.

Admiration for the strong is an inevitable human nature.

She also admired Wang Shao in the past.

Now... let's not talk about it.

But Director Wei can still make her feel admired.

Even though Director Wei is much younger than her.

At this moment, Director Wei and Teacher Bai’s cell phones rang.

The secretary was urging Director Wei to go out quickly.

Teacher Bai received a call from Wang Shao.

Teacher Bai glanced at Director Wei, answered Wang Shao's call, and then heard Wang Shao say on the phone that his car was scratched.

"I'm not up yet, so you can handle it yourself."

Teacher Bai didn't ask any more questions and quickly and proactively ended the call.

The family status speaks for itself.

Then Teacher Bai took the initiative and said, "Director Wei, he probably won't be able to come up within half an hour."

Director Wei: “…”

At this age, when one is full of vigor and vitality, is it really necessary? Do we have to race against time with such a small amount of time?

He swore to God that he had never had such an idea before.

Teacher Bai placed her hand on Director Wei's shoulder and said, "Director Wei, you can't pull up your trousers. Let me help you."

Young people always feel a little irritable when they wake up in the morning.

Director Wei: "...Is there enough time?"

Teacher Bai said confidently, "Director Wei, are you looking down on me?"

Director Wei really wants to say that he understands himself.

But he held back his words.

It’s not that I can’t be a Happy Boy once.

"Boss, you really are racing against time."

Half an hour later, when Director Wei heard the "praise" from his secretary in the car, he said righteously, "It has nothing to do with me. It's Teacher Bai who's racing against time."

Secretary: "...That's amazing."

"There's more to come. She also wants to fight side by side with her good sister Jiang Xin."

The secretary had been following Director Wei for a long time, so she immediately understood the meaning of fighting side by side.

His expression changed to an extremely wonderful one.

"Cattle."

I can only say "admiration".

"Boss, are you moved?"

"No, you know me. I'm not that kind of person."

The secretary nodded.

"I understand. I have to start collecting information about Jiang Xin."

Director Wei: “…” Having a personal secretary who knows you too well is both good and bad.
