Chapter 1 Celebrating more than one year's preparations (thanks to wishful thinking,
"Producer Hou, Director Kong, let's discuss it here. Everyone is ready to prepare. Now the crew can start setting up."
"No problem. By the way, your performance as Xu Changqing was good."
"Thanks."
Wang Zheng saw the two people off from the hot pot restaurant, which was his high-end hot pot restaurant.
It has been more than two months since graduation, and Wang Zheng has not been idle during these two months.
Wang Juan is not as popular as he was in the future, and Wang Zheng had asked someone to adapt the script to him a long time ago.
We also hired Shanying's Kong Sheng Studio to be the director. They are not Shanying's royal staff, and they can also take on the work, but Shanying's films have priority.
During this time, he was originally preparing to shoot "The Age of Steel", but he was not the only director in the studio. If companies from outside approached them to film, they would not refuse.
In fact, his working model is similar to that of Tang Dynasty, with at least two directors for one play.
He was the one who took the lead in "The Age of Steel", which was actually shot by Sun Molong.
They haven't produced "Wenzhou Family" yet, and they don't have the temperament of a TV drama producer like they will in the future.
Now even though they were filming for Shanying, Kong Sheng didn't expect anyone to come looking for them.
In fact, unless you start your own company, a studio like theirs will just issue tasks from Shanying and they will shoot.
They didn't leave until they became famous after filming "Wenzhou Family".
Now he is a somewhat famous director, and Wang Zheng approached him because he knew about his reputation in later generations.
Of course, the remuneration is not low, almost two million, which is really a lot, and Shan Ying only paid that much.
Don't think that a director has great power and makes a lot of money. TV dramas usually only give you a certain amount of investment, and you have to find a way to make the TV show.
Everyone imagines that directors with great power are the type of small steel cannons and national masters.
To be honest, directors really don’t make as much money as actors, except for the four above.
Just like traffic, if he licks you, he will lick you, but it is normal for the pay to be higher than yours.
Especially TV drama directors. In later generations, Dongyang Zhengwu relied on his works to make his career, and he was the capital. Now, he does not have that qualification.
From now on, there will be many good ones at noon, so you can choose whoever you want, but most of them are quite suitable for the characters.
By the way, Wang Zheng signed a three-season contract with him, and the money will be paid in one go.
The price of the second and third parts shall not exceed 20%.
In the end, the other party received a salary of less than 5 million for three films, which was very good. It was good that the capital did not invade.
Even if it is a small steel cannon, shooting a night party is only a little more than this price, and he is a movie director.
Because they only have directors and used behind-the-scenes staff, most of the staff are from Tang Dynasty.
Lao Cai knew that Wang Zheng would be the protagonist sooner or later. She originally planned to finish filming "The Weaver Girl" and have Wang Zheng be the protagonist in the next one.
But I didn’t expect that Wang Zheng had chosen her own talents. That’s good. Tang Ren’s title of Poor Tang was no joke. She praised herself and used her team to help her reduce some operating costs. She could even use Tang Ren’s title
Write it into the producer.
As for not using her company's director, she doesn't care. Besides, the company's directors are all filming "The Weaver Girl" and there is no time to prepare for the celebration.
This time it was pretty good, the third round of Fairy Sword has been sold.
The first round of broadcasts performed well, and the ratings were considered to be inflated by later generations. Even on major pirated video websites, it still ranks among the top three.
Of course, the ratings cannot be compared with Shunliu, but there is no problem with the top three. The main reason is that its famous actors are much more popular on the Internet than on TV.
This drama is also more popular online than in real life, and the people who watch it are at the same age as netizens.
Isn't Lao Hu going on a promotional trip? Sister Mi, Sisi and Tangtang also went on a run some time ago.
Speaking of "Celebrating More Than Years", Wang Juan's script has been completed and the adaptation of the second part has begun.
To be honest, this was his first time adapting a script from a novel like this, and he never expected to make several movies.
But since the money is in place, he will be fine and just write.
Lao Cai is happy that her team was used in the filming of "Celebrating More Than Years", and it seems that actors from the Tang Dynasty can once again be admired.
The producers this time are Xia Tong, Lao Cai and Kong Sheng’s disciple Hou Hongliang.
Hou Hongliang was assisting the master in dealing with the crew. Since the next film was coming, he had to shoot it well and there was no intention of fooling around.
It was their own reputation that was deceived and ruined. As for finding Kong Sheng, they belonged to the studio and could contact those actors who were popular in Mandarin.
To be honest, it was not surprising to anyone that they were planning to invite Chen Daoming and Wu Gang.
Unlike in later generations, which were purely old dramas and could cause a sensation, now everyone cooperates more and there is no sensation.
Lao Cai has no objection, she is just a tool.
Of course, Chen Daoming must be more difficult to invite, after all, he rarely plays supporting roles, but as long as the money is available, it will be fine.
Even if he is from Beijing, he has to do movies that make money. His price is high, so few people invite him.
Hou Hongliang became a producer for the same reason. He was backed by Shanying and had contacts with these people.
By the way, if you want to sign a contract, the supporting characters will be fine, but the main characters will have to sign a contract for three seasons at once.
This is not a big problem. Now we are constantly looking for dramas, and long-term meal tickets are very fragrant.
After all, no one would have thought that the remuneration would be so high in later films. However, Wang Zheng did not deliberately suppress the remuneration. He was afraid that if the first film became a hit, the lions would open their mouths.
Now he just wants to control costs, after all, his mother accounts for the entire investment.
But it seems that all the old actors in the later generations are popular, and the pay for these people is not very high.
Xia Tong has gained a bit of fame now. After all, "Latent" became a hit, and her film and television investment company also received bonuses. The main reason is that she made money. The first round of broadcasting almost doubled the money.
At this stage, doubling it would be very popular. Especially, she still has more than half of the copyrights for latent film and television dramas, as well as subsequent network and second- and third-round income.
There is also "Sword and Sword III", which was a star on two TV stations, and together it has made back its money.
The rest of the second rounds are all net income. Seriously, there are very few people who can directly repay the money in the first round. Most film and television dramas rely on the second and third rounds to make money.
Otherwise, the traffic will not be dominant in the next generation. They can really make money, and they sold well in the first round.
Can you think of it, the producer of the later baby drama was a huge hit, even if it cost 80 million yuan, it would not be a loss at all.
…
Tiezi's Fan Ruoruo is good, but the relationship is far and near. Sister Mi and Sisi are still available. In addition, when it is released, it should be their peak period, so it will be good to sell the drama.
However, he will not choose the roles one by one according to his previous life. Kong Sheng's style should be different from that of previous directors.
He doesn't know who the director was in his previous life and has never paid attention to it.
Actually speaking, Fan Ruoruo's role is more like that of the heroine than Lin Wan'er, but she is not the official match of the protagonist, and the female pig's trotters are not her.
