Chapter 141 However, it was written by my boyfriend

For several days, Director Li did not send any news to Song Yi.

Song Yi didn't take the initiative to ask.

For this kind of thing, as long as Director Li doesn't deny it to himself, it means that they are still working on it.

Anyway, producing a program is not about cooking, it can be completed in an hour or two. The preliminary preparations take a lot of time.

In the list of invited guests on my side, so far, only Tang Wanqing has been confirmed, and the others are still communicating and negotiating.

In his previous life, a show he participated in took nearly half a year to prepare from the time it was approved to the start of filming. The most time-consuming part of it was the invitation of guests.

It is difficult to invite a guest who has a schedule, is popular, and is suitable.

Producing a program is different from filming TV series or movies. The guests cannot all be amateurs.

Especially when a program is first broadcast or previewed, there must be one or two very popular artists to attract traffic attention and support.

But the greater the reputation, the higher the difficulty.

This is why the program team often prepares some backup candidates.

When the most suitable person doesn't come, the program team will settle for an artist who is similar to him, relatively confident, and not difficult to invite.

Although the effect may not be that good, at least the program will not be aborted because the guests do not come.

Of course, Song Yi also called Director Wan about this to calm him down and reassure him not to worry.

Wan Dao naturally said that he was fine, but actually he felt a little panicked.

Logically speaking, given Song Yi's relationship within the group, it shouldn't be so difficult.

Could it be that the daughter-in-law was really right and asked to fetch water from a bamboo basket, just to be happy in vain?

The most painful thing in life is not the lack of hope, but the sudden loss of hope after it has clearly given you hope.

Since the company's program team couldn't handle things at once, Song Yi was naturally busy with "The Silent Truth".

He read the director's information that Chen Ying sent him last time, and also checked it online to see some news about him. On paper, it looked pretty good.

So he asked Chen Ying to make an appointment with the other party at Song and Tang Company to meet him first.

In his office, Song Yi looked at the young director brought in by Chen Ying. He stood up with a smile and said, "Hello, I am Song Yi, welcome Director Zhou."

"Hello, Mr. Song."

Song Yi looked at it carefully. Compared with the photos on the computer, he looked more artistic, more weathered, and more raunchy.

His long, flowing hair was tied up and tied behind his head, and his stubble had not been shaved for who knows how many days. His clothes were even more casual, no matter how comfortable he was.

A proper literary young man.

In fact, Zhou Jingyu didn't want to come to see Song Yi like this, but the notice came too urgently.

I stayed up all night last night to write the script. I was catching up on my nap in bed in the morning when I was called directly by Chen Ying.

Standing in front of Song Yi, Zhou Jingyu may have realized that his attire was a bit impolite, so he quickly explained: "Mr. Song, I'm sorry, I came in a hurry, so please clean up if you didn't come."

Because of his good luck, his first script and first work won him the Best New Director Award that year.

But so what?

Because of his personality, he accidentally offended someone, which resulted in him being directly blacklisted by some investment companies in the industry.

In addition, there were originally few suspense stories, so by the end, he basically had no drama to take on.

So far, he has not officially received a script for almost two years.

Although he made some short videos along the way, they were all small businesses and he didn't make any money at all.

He also wants to try writing scripts himself and then find investors, but writing scripts really requires a certain amount of talent.

In the past two years, he has worked hard to write two stories one after another, but he can't find investors at all, and no one is interested in his story at all.

At this moment, Chen Ying suddenly called him on the phone and asked him if he would like to film a web series, suspense type.

At first he thought it was just a small show to earn living expenses, but when he heard that the TV series planned to invest 30 million and that it would be broadcast on the Penguin platform after it was filmed, he became excited.

In order to confirm the authenticity of this matter, he asked Chen Ying. After learning the name of the company, he was stunned for a moment because he had never heard of the name of the company.

He's not a liar, is he?

Zhou Jingyu looked on the Internet with doubts, and found out that Song and Tang Entertainment Co., Ltd. was an entertainment company that had only been registered recently, but it was one of the investors in the recently popular "The Golden Branch".

The only female artist currently owned by the company is Yu Jiuer, who played the role of "Yuying" in "The Love of the Golden Branch".

Now he completely believed it.

Of course he had to seize this opportunity.

"It's okay, sit down."

Song Yi took the initiative to pour him a cup of coffee and said, "Can I ask why you didn't shoot another one after you made the first one?"

Zhou Jingyu smiled bitterly and said: "Because there is no good script, no one is willing to ask me to film."

"Why?"

"Accidentally, I offended someone."

Zhou Jingyu said: "Maybe only new companies like you will use me."

"Talk about it."

Song Yi suddenly became interested and said, "I just joined this industry and I don't know much about some of your methods of playing."

Zhou Jingyu hesitated for a moment and said: "Actually, the entertainment industry that everyone sees and the people behind it are two different things.

If you as an actor only deal with people on the crew, you have no idea who is the real boss in this world and who controls the entire industry.

Many times, most directors are in control. Every time they shoot a movie, they have to wait for these people to say "YES" before they can shoot it.

Because whether it’s money, script resources, or broadcast platforms, they are firmly under their control.”

After listening to Zhou Jingyu's words, Song Yi actually felt that this gameplay was no different from the entertainment industry in his previous life.

Isn’t this the usual way of playing the game of capitalists?

So now comes the problem.

The market is so big and has long been divided by a few people. If he suddenly comes out to grab the cake, will he be besieged?

The answer is obviously yes.

But it doesn't matter, I have two major advantages.

First of all, in terms of scripts, I don’t need to rely on anyone. The works in my previous life are enough to support the foundation of my building.

Secondly, the broadcast channel is backed by the Penguin Video platform, so you don’t need to look at anyone’s face.

As long as he does these two things and doesn't have his throat pinched, he won't be afraid of anyone.

After all, as long as your company's works can be successfully released, everyone is still fighting for the quality of the works. The audience will never be bribed and will only watch the works they like to see.

"I see."

Song Yi said: "You don't have to worry about them. Now I have decided to give you a chance and hand over the company's script to you for filming. Are you confident that you can make a good work and reappear in everyone's field of vision?"

"Of course I have confidence in myself."

Zhou Jingyu said with some curiosity: "But Mr. Song, can you tell me which gold medal screenwriter is the author of this script?"

"Then this may disappoint you."

Song Yi smiled and said: "He is not a gold medal screenwriter, but a newcomer named Song Yi."

"Is that the screenwriter of "The Golden Bough"?"

"right."

Song Yi asked: "After knowing that the other party is still a new screenwriter, do you still have confidence now?"

"have!"

Zhou Jingyu said: "Can the company give me the script in advance? I want to familiarize myself with the script and the plot quickly, and figure out the core of the script, so I know how to shoot it."

"Okay, that's no problem."

Song Yi said: "When you go out later, sign the contract with the company and ask Manager Chen to give it to you."

"OK."

At the opening ceremony of a shopping mall in Shanghai, Tang Wanqing wore a pink dress, a pair of thin crystal high heels, and held a pink bag in her hand.

As soon as she appeared, her beautiful temperament quickly attracted everyone's attention.

Reporters from all major media started snapping pictures one after another.

Currently, her popularity and topics are very high. She is not a first-line actor, but better than a first-line actor.

After the event, she also accepted interviews with the media.

When asked about her next plans, she smiled slightly and said: "Soon, I will participate in a reality show, and I hope everyone will support me."
