With the rapid expansion of Renren, the original company size of a few people was no longer enough. Wang Zhengfei felt it was necessary to recruit more people. First, he rented an office building, and then hired some technical staff and some administrative staff.
Xu Jiahao also gradually began to shift from his original technical staff to a management role, and the technical maintenance of the website no longer required him to personally take action.
Sometimes he himself doesn't believe that three months ago he was a college student who couldn't even find a job, but now according to the actual value of Renren, he is already a rich man with a net worth of five million.
But the rest are some things that will take time to settle, and don’t come in a hurry.
Ever since he became famous, especially after making a big fuss at the press conference, Wang Zhengfei has encountered crazy fans who have traveled thousands of miles from other places on campus from time to time. This has not only caused considerable inconvenience to him, but also caused considerable inconvenience to the school management.
In the end, Wang Zhengfei had no choice but to move out and find an apartment nearby. Now he finally experienced the inconvenience of being a public figure for the first time.
Gao Yan found Wang Zhengfei's apartment early in the morning.
"Well done!" Gao Yan said with a smile, "Now the Internet is full of news about you, which also saved us a lot of advertising expenses."
"Aren't you a rich second generation? Why do you feel so stingy?" Wang Zhengfei said with a smile.
Gao Yan sat down on the sofa with a smile and said: "The second generation of rich people, this title is not good to hear. Besides, even if my family is rich, it is not my money. All my money came from my school days and these two years."
I earned it over the years!”
"Haha, you said you're not the second generation rich!" Wang Zhengfei said with a smile, "Look, how could a child from an ordinary family do it? This is millions, and most people can't earn it in a lifetime!"
"Okay!" Gao Yan said with a smile, "You can think so, but after all, it is the matter of my father's generation. I will not be proud because my father's generation is more successful, but I also don't feel anything shameful about it!"
"This is the script I just collected. Take a look!" Gao Yan took out a few scripts from the briefcase behind him and handed them to Wang Zhengfei nonchalantly. "I brought them all in one go! You choose one yourself.
Bar!"
Wang Zhengfei took the script and started reading it. After a while, he put it down and said, "What kind of scripts are these? Each one is worse than the last one. Isn't there any better one?"
"This has all been selected!" Gao Yan said.
"Is there anything worse than these?" Wang Zhengfei said, "The story is just bloody, and it is completely unreasonable. It is simply impossible for the company to make money from this, or to sell it at the box office!"
"We have no choice. We have limited funds. Do you know how much it costs to buy an excellent script? If all the money is spent on the script, we will have a serious shortage of funds for filming!" Gao Yan said helplessly,
The current situation in China's film and television industry is not a lack of screenwriters, but a lack of sufficiently creative editors. It is a lack of screenwriters and a complete lack of attention to screenwriters, resulting in an extreme shortage of screenwriter talents, or screenwriters who can write good scripts.
That’s why good scripts are so hard to find. The most intuitive reaction is that Jin Yong’s dramas have been remade over and over again, and the Four Great Classics have also been remade continuously. Later, they were remade into foreign film and television dramas. It’s not so much because these works are classic enough, but
It's because Chinese screenwriters lack enough good works.
Of course, there are many good works that have been buried, but the entertainment industry is such a place that pays attention to relationships and backgrounds. When a small company meets an excellent but buried work, when an excellent but buried work meets a person who knows how to appreciate it, it will be a great win for both parties.
It all requires luck and opportunity.
"Besides, even if we ask for help, those screenwriters may not be willing to give us good scripts!" Gao Yan said.
"But without a good script, it's impossible to make a profit!" Wang Zhengfei said, "Making a movie doesn't mean how much money you invest will get out. Film companies are established and closed every day!"
"In that case, it's up to you to write it, since you're not satisfied!" Gao Yan said, "The "Myth" you wrote before was pretty good!"
"Writing novels and writing scripts are two different things, okay!" Wang Zhengfei said. Writing novels and writing scripts are actually two different things. The gap between them is very big. It may take tens of thousands of words to write something in a novel, but it can be described with a lens.
It's just a matter of a few shots, that's the difference.
"Otherwise, you can only follow the normal route, do the announcement first, and then film the TV series!" Wang Zhengfei said.
"Now we have to strike while the iron is hot. Now I have received inside information that CCTV will start filming an annual mythological drama. If you can participate, your popularity will definitely be greatly improved!" Gao Yan said.
"Mythological drama?" Wang Zhengfei was a little confused.
"It seems that it is confirmed that "Lotus Lantern" will be filmed. Now it has entered the casting stage. No matter if there is no movie you want to make, you have to participate in the casting. If you can be selected, it will naturally be the best.
With the platform of CCTV, everything is much simpler!" Gao Yan said. It goes without saying what CCTV is. In terms of domestic TV stations, CCTV can be said to be a super giant. With its monopoly advantage, it has won the TV
With most of the market's ratings, being able to get such an opportunity on CCTV is definitely a rare opportunity for a newcomer.
But opportunity is a good opportunity, but it is also a grand event for connections. Originally, if you say you don’t have connections with investors during filming, no one will believe it. Unless you are an investor yourself, someone else will definitely ask to be involved.
But those are ordinary supporting roles, and the protagonist still depends on the director's wishes. After all, this is CCTV's annual drama. If it messes up, no one can afford it.
When Gao Yan said this, Wang Zhengfei remembered that he had indeed watched "Lotus Lantern" in his previous life. The filming of the drama was pretty good, and with the CCTV platform, the final ratings were also quite good.
It can be said to be a drama with great potential.
"This drama will start filming next spring, so if we want to participate, we must prepare early!" Gao Yan said, "In a few days, the crew of "Lotus Lantern" will start to openly search for actors, and we must be the first to do so.
!”
"There's been a lot going on lately. I'll hire a full-time assistant for you in the next two days, or if you have someone you can tell me! It's a bit overwhelming for one person to be responsible for the roles of boss and agent! Let him also be responsible for part of the agent's part.
!" Gao Yan said.
"Haha, then you have to pay me double wages!" Wang Zhengfei joked with a smile.
