Chapter 529 Daily life
Tian Youliang was born in 1965 and is now less than 40 years old, which is when his creative energy is at its strongest.
The TV series mentioned earlier that was put on hold due to the epidemic is called "The Difficult Love of Diamond Kings", and the original novel is called "Pandora of Love", which is the work of a classmate named Tian Youliang. Tian decided to buy the adaptation rights immediately after reading it, and at the beginning
So he decided to give the leading role to Deng Chao - Tian Youliang really liked Deng Chao.
The reasons why the TV series was shelved are firstly because of the epidemic, and secondly because the current Deng Chao has a baby face and is too young to play the role of a mature CEO in the original work.
So Tian Youliang put down the play and started working on Happy Twist as a stage comedy with a few friends.
Cheng Yuan and Tian Youliang met in the office of the chairman of Remote Media.
Accompanying Tian Youliang are the other two founders of Happy Mahua - Yu Kai and Zhang Chen.
The three of them are all insiders, so they have naturally heard of Cheng Yuan, who has been in the limelight recently.
As a middleman, Deng Chao played a matchmaking role.
Several people said hello and took their seats one after another.
Although Cheng Yu'an was willing to invest, he didn't want to rush to give away money, so he asked: "It's hard to do stage plays now, and the attendance rate of Renyi Guohua is just that. How can Mahua attract the audience?"
Tian Youliang said: "It is true that stage plays are not crowded now, but I have observed the current folk classes in the capital. Among them, the cross talk of Deyun Club (now renamed) is the most popular. We have thought about this problem. There are many large and small folk classes in the capital.
In the club, there are opera singers, drummers, storytellers, and crosstalk talkers. Why is he the most popular? Of course, it’s because they are good at crosstalk, but I think there is another reason.
"Crosstalk is still a comedy. Its purpose is to amuse the audience. This genre naturally attracts the audience. It is for this reason that we chose to do stage comedy.
"I am a teacher myself, and I am in charge of creation in Mahua's team. The three of us have reached a consensus and put script creation at the core of the troupe..."
Tian Youliang and the other three talked a lot, and Cheng Yu'an listened very carefully.
It turns out that the three of them had a clear plan for the development of Mahua, and even thought of relying on the stage play to refine the script and joke baggage, and then take the road of film and television adaptation in the future.
Cheng Yuan said at the right time: "It seems that the three of us are very confident in the future of Mahua. It just so happens that our distance media has regarded screenwriters as the core department since its establishment, and we have been recruiting and collecting excellent screenwriters and scripts. Both of our companies are
It is a new company that has only just started, but it has an excellent film and television production team in the distance. As for Mahua, I certainly hope to see you build an equally excellent creative team. Our joint future will definitely become a good story in the entertainment industry."
Finally, Cheng Yuan invested 2 million in the Mahua team on behalf of Remote Media, becoming the fourth largest founder and largest shareholder.
Cheng Yu'an also agreed that he would provide film and television adaptations for the Mahua stage play. Tian Youliang originally wanted Cheng Yu'an to promise not to interfere with Mahua's script creation and personnel and finance, but Cheng Yu'an was obviously impossible to agree.
You get 2 million from me for co-writing, but I can’t do anything and I still have to adapt it for your film and television?
There is nothing so good in the world.
Cheng Yuan only said that he would not interfere too much in the creation of Mahua, and promised a relatively relaxed and free creative environment.
After waiting for a long time, until about three o'clock in the afternoon, the four of them signed the contract under the witness of the lawyer.
After everyone separated, Cheng Yu'an finished the last thing before the trip and didn't care about it anymore. He picked up his bag, bought a ticket for the nearest departure, and went on a trip.
"Eighteen-Year-Old Sky" was being filmed at Jiading No. 1 Middle School in the Magic City. By coincidence, Cheng Yuan's plane landed in the Magic City.
Cheng Yu'an did not go to visit the class immediately, but instead started to play in the Magic City first.
This city has two faces, one is the bustling modern city, and the other is the ancient streets and alleys that have endured for a hundred years.
Cheng Yu'an was tired of steel and concrete in the capital, so when he came to the capital, he plunged into the alleys.
Cheng Yu'an has always felt that the true face of a city lies in his old streets and alleys.
Experience the most authentic local dishes, crystal shrimps, marinated chicken, three-sliced chicken, and a bowl of soybean soup. After one meal, your mouth will be full of oil.
After dinner, it was already evening, and after feeling the night view of the Bund and the splendor of the Oriental Pearl Tower, Cheng Yu'an took a taxi.
"Friend, why don't you go to Ahli now?" the driver asked.
Cheng Yuan: "???"
"Is it possible to defeat Shanghai's nonsense?"
Cheng Yu'an: "????"
Only then did the driver realize that Cheng Yu'an could not speak or understand the local dialect, so he automatically switched his accent: "Where are you going?"
"Let's go to the art theater. Master, is there any good show tonight?" Cheng Yu'an said.
"How can Allah understand the drama? Why don't you watch it?" The master waved his hand.
The drivers in Shanghai are obviously not as talkative as their counterparts in Beijing, but they are still relatively eloquent.
Along the way, I talked to Cheng Yuan: "Young man, are you here for a trip?"
"Um."
"The Grand View Garden was cut down?"
"not yet."
"I want to have fun on the Bund for a while."
"Just came from over there."
As they talked, the two arrived at the Art Theater. There was a historical drama tonight - "Shang Yang".
After watching the show, he found a hotel to stay near Jiading No. 1 Middle School. Cheng Yuan planned to surprise them by raiding "The Eighteen-Year-Old Sky" tomorrow.
No visiting team goes empty-handed, and they usually prepare gifts. There are about a hundred people on the crew, so the most appropriate way is to bring a cart of fruit for the crew to eat.
That's what Cheng Yuan did. He packed a cart full of apples, bananas and pears and took it to Jiading No. 1 Middle School. Unexpectedly, the guard refused to let him in.
The school is not on holiday yet, and it is not easy to let idle people enter the school. Cheng Yu'an had no choice but to call Cheng Lingfeng: "I'm coming to the Magic City!"
"Why are you here suddenly? Where are you?"
"I'm at the gate of Jiading No. 1 Middle School, but the gatekeeper won't let me in. He says I'm just a bastard."
Cheng Lingfeng smiled and said, "Then you, a bastard, wait a minute and I'll come and pick you up."
"The Eighteen-Year-Old Sky" was filmed while students were in class, without interfering with each other. The students were in class while the crew was filming.
The crew is composed of a handful of newcomers, with little reputation and little ability to cause commotion among the students.
At most, there were a few curious ones who stuck their heads in to take a look.
"Let's pause for a moment. Our producer, Director Cheng Yu'an, is here to visit the team." Cheng Lingfeng introduced to everyone.
"Hello, Director Cheng."
"Good supervision."
Cheng Yuan met several leading actors on the set: Bao Jianfeng, Li Zhinan, Jin Sha and Ni Jingyang.
There is also the Wandao team that Cheng Lingfeng hired with a lot of money.
"You continue filming and leave me alone." Cheng Yu'an motioned to the crew to continue.
19-year-old Jinsha still has the baby fat of puberty. No, she should be called Lan Feilin.
In order to play this role, this girl actually changed her stage name to Lan Feilin.
The girl looks a bit broad now, but fortunately she has a sweet temperament, which is perfect for her role as a school belle.
In fact, she feels like she was born at the wrong time. She debuted too early. What is popular now is glamorous beauties.
If she had been idle for a few years, or had debuted a few years later, she might have been able to get a piece of the 85-dollar pie.
Or going in the sweet girl group style is also a good choice.
