I really don't want high ratings for my documentaries!

Chapter 516 Actor's Asura Field!

"Documentaries? Don't you shoot all the time?"

Hearing Xu Wen's words, Zhang Min was subconsciously stunned.

Because Xu Wen's company started from documentaries, Xu Wen's company already has a very mature documentary system.

So far, apart from the IP created by Xu Wen himself, there are many new IPs.

Many of these works are very popular with the audience.

In addition, under Zhang Min's strategizing, he signed a directional broadcast agreement with Penguin Film and Television and bli bli.

Therefore, many documentaries produced by Xu Wen Company do not even have to worry about the broadcasting platform.

Even led by Xu Wen, many film and television companies specializing in documentaries have sprung up.

It can be said that the sentence once said has been truly realized.

Relying on himself has influenced the development of the industry.

In Xuwen's main business, documentaries have accounted for 60%.

It can be said that he has broken away from Xu Wen's initial influence and walked out of his own path.

Now even if Xu Wen doesn't come to make documentaries, the company's in-house documentaries can still make money.

It's just that the revenue of Xu Wen's two TV series is comparable to the revenue of the company's 7-8 documentaries.

This allowed Zhang Min to see the ability of TV dramas to print money.

No wonder it is said that those who make documentaries are Qiongbi!

It seems that all the money is spent making TV series and movies.

Facing Zhang Min's words, Xu Wen shook his head.

"I'm not talking about the projects the company is working on, but about myself."

"yourself?"

Zhang Min was taken aback.

Xu Wen nodded.

"In the past few years, I have produced variety shows and filmed TV dramas. This step by step seems to be very successful."

"But in fact, I haven't been in contact with documentaries for a long time, and I almost forgot that I was born in documentaries."

After finishing speaking, Xu Wen sighed heavily, then took a sip from the wine glass beside him.

Zhang Min also went from not understanding at the beginning to now understanding.

Looking at Xu Wen, Zhang Min took a deep breath.

"Then our "Langya Bang"? Are you planning to cancel the filming of "Langya Bang" and start making a documentary again?"

"No, even if I want to do it, those who invested in this TV series will not allow me to do it."

Xu Wen smiled.

At this point, what to do, what to do, is really involuntary.

Now everything is ready for this project of "Langya Bang".

If Xu Wen suddenly changed to other projects at this time, he would be burdened with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of liquidated damages behind him.

It can be said that one hair really moves the whole body.

He belongs, even if he doesn't want to go, he will be pushed forward.

Zhang Min frowned.

Although she wanted to help Xu Wen, she also knew that she couldn't be willful.

He could only sigh slightly, and asked.

"Then have you figured out what to do? Do you want to shoot the documentary after filming the current TV series? Or..."

"Let's finish filming "Langya Bang" first! After "Langya Bang" is finished, I want to try to make another documentary."

Xu Wen took a deep breath and made up his mind.

Zhang Min heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and nodded accordingly.

"Okay! Let's make a TV series first."

The next day.

Dodging the besieged paparazzi, Xu Wen boarded the plane and returned to Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

I didn't go to the company immediately, but came to the project preparation site of "Langya Bang".

"Hello Director Xu, I'm Zhou Hong."

The first time he saw Xu Wen, a young man ran over enthusiastically.

Xu Wen nodded.

"Your sister told me about you and recommended you to my crew. I'm here to check the results this time. If I'm not satisfied, I'll send you back to your sister."

"Director Xu, don't worry! I will try my best not to let Director Xu drive me back to my sister!"

Zhou Hong said with a smile!

When Xu Wen was preparing for "Langya Bang", Zhang Min mentioned it to Xu Wen.

I have a cousin who graduated from film school.

He studied directing at the beginning, but he didn't direct many works after graduation.

Slowly he turned to become an assistant director.

Basically, it can be said to be the butler of the entire crew.

From preparations to costumes to venues, everything big and small is left to him to manage.

However, he then summarized the results and reported them to the chief director.

Just when preparing for "Langya Bang", Xu Wen also participated in the recording of the show, so he really didn't have much effort.

So I gave it to Zhang Min's cousin.

Speaking of which, today is just the first meeting between Xu Wen and Zhang Min's cousin.

Judging from the first impression, Xu Wen has a good impression of Zhang Min, his cousin.

At least he's doing a pretty good job of being a human being.

Following Zhou Hong into the venue, Xu Wen seemed to have walked into a warehouse.

Various shapes of armor and clothing, as well as headgear and shoes, etc. are piled up in the whole room.

"Look, Director Xu, this is the armor I chose for Mei Changsu in the finale when he set off on the expedition."

"Director Xu, these are Prince Jing's clothes and armor"

"Director Xu, this is the armor of Princess Nihuang."

Hearing the back, Xu Wen couldn't help laughing.

"I see you seem to like armor?"

"Yes, I like armor very much. I am very good at armor research. The reason why I switched from directing to behind-the-scenes was because I planned to shoot a scene with all armor, but the management didn't agree, so I left !"

Zhou Hong talked about her past with great interest.

Xu Wen also found it interesting, and couldn't help asking.

"What kind of drama?"

"Harem!"

"."

Xu Wen's face seemed to have been hit with a stick.

Everyone is dumbfounded.

Filming a harem scene, full armor.

This is the Shura field where you filmed!

Shaking his head, Xu Wen just felt nonsensical.

Fortunately, my play is not a harem play, otherwise Xu Wen would not dare to use Zhang Min's face.

After inspecting the construction and props of some venues, Xu Wen left by car.

He has one more important thing to do next.

Find an actor!
Before Xu Wen asked Zhang Min to find any actor, but Zhang Min gave him a lot of actor information the next day.

In it, Xu Wen chose Princess Nihuang, King Jing, and even Prince Yu and other roles.

After sending out invitations and auditions, they all signed contracts one after another.

But one actor has never been finalized.

That is the hero in the film.

The actor who played Mei Changsu.

In the actor profile, Xu Wen actually took a fancy to the actor.

It is a young actor named Liu Changge.

He made his debut with his handsome looks before.

Now he is also a first-line niche student.

There is an obvious difference from the production side when it comes to invitations for celebrities and ordinary actors.

You can ask the average actor to audition once, twice or thrice.

But for those front-line actors who have never been short of filming.

The audition part has been directly omitted.

There are a lot of leading roles out there seeking to act, whoever has the time to do auditions with you.

It's the same even here in Xu Wen.

Although Xu Wen's drama is very popular, he can ask those second-line actors to audition a few times.

But for first-line actors, when you can only invite them to try on costumes, you can audition by the way.

And Liu Changge also came to audition and tried on costumes.

It can be said that no matter in terms of image or acting skills, it is the most appropriate among so many actors interviewed by Xu Wen.

It's not that Xu Wen didn't think about digging out newcomers like Zhao Ying at the beginning.

But after seeing so many actors, Xu Wen also understood a truth.

If someone can become popular, they must have capital.

At least Xu Wen hasn't found an actor who can surpass Liu Changge.

But now there is a problem.

That is Xu Wen Xinshui Liu Changge.

However, Liu Changge's body does not satisfy Xu Wen.

Because there is another movie that is also looking for Liu Changge.

Movies are different from TV shows.

Many actors also take it for granted that movies are superior to TV dramas.

From making movies to making TV series, it is backward compatible.

Generally speaking, it is easier for film actors to make TV series, but it is a bit difficult for TV series actors to make movies.

And Liu Changge has been filming TV series since his debut.

Opportunities for filming were rare, and now one has come forward.

Liu Changge was also very moved.

Of course, the movies mentioned here must have a very good lineup in terms of production.

It's not that big of a network.

Otherwise, Liu Changge wouldn't have to worry about it at all.

And it is the director of this movie that makes Liu Changge entangled.

It was Wang Jiawei!
This is really small and clever home, so clever to come home!
According to Wang Jiawei, this film is a work he intends to use to impact the "cultural export" project.

I hope Xu Wen can let Liu Changge participate in the production of the film.

And Xu Wen said helplessly that his "Langya Bang" is also a work that participated in the "cultural export" project.

I hope Wang Jiawei can raise his hand and let Liu Changge participate in the production of TV dramas.

Both have their reasons.

So the choice can only be given to Liu Changge himself.

Because the shooting time of the two works overlaps.

So it means that Liu Changge can only choose one of the two.

You can not have it both ways.

Xu Wen also used today's time to persuade Liu Changge.

To be honest, it is rare to encounter such a thing in the entertainment industry.

Even the situations encountered by popular actors are that there are many invited scripts.

But most of them are bad dramas, and there are good dramas, but the number is rare.

So it's easy to pick.

But this time the situation is completely different.

Both Xu Wen and Wang Jiawei are excellent directors.

In Liu Changge's opinion, the scripts of the two are very good works.

If it wasn't for the overlapping time, he really wanted to play both of them.

60 points and 80 points, everyone knows to choose 80 points.

But both are 80 points, which is difficult.

Although Liu Changge likes movies.

But "Langya Bang" is also a rare masterpiece!

So it's not just Xu Wen and Wang Jiawei who are in trouble.

Liu Changge was also in trouble.

The car drove Xu Wen all the way to the studio where Liu Changge is currently filming.

When he arrived at the place, Xu Wen went inside under the leadership of the staff.

He had already said that he would meet Liu Changge at this time.

Regardless of the final result, Liu Changge still has the minimum courtesy.

Walking in with the staff, I happened to see Liu Changge who was constantly posing under the command of the photographer.

The surrounding staff were all surprised when they saw Xu Wen, but they didn't dare to say hello too loudly.

"Mr. Xu is good."

"Hi Director Xu."

"Hello Director Xu."

Xu Wen nodded, and his eyes continued to fall on the man who was filming.

I have to say that Liu Changge's expressiveness in front of the camera is really good.

The textures are very attractive.

No wonder it caught fire.

Born with a photogenic face.

"Director Xu, oops, it's really hard, you just waited, I'm sorry."

Liu Changge's agent came over and said apologetically.

Xu Wen said with a smile.

"It's okay, I know Changge is busy, I won't say anything."

Just as Liu Changge's manager was about to say something, the phone rang suddenly, and when he picked it up, his expression changed suddenly.

Quietly casting a glance at Xu Wen, he left in a hurry with his mobile phone.

Xu Wen looked at the strange back of Liu Changge's manager, but didn't say anything.

Not long after, Liu Changge's manager went back and forth, followed by another person.

"Oh! Xu Wen, I didn't expect you to be much faster than me!"

Hearing these familiar words, Xu Wen froze for a moment, then turned his head to look.

Good guy!
It's Wang Jiawei.

Liu Changge's agent's face was very ugly.

"Sorry, I didn't expect the two directors to come at such a coincident time today."

"It doesn't matter, sooner or later I have to talk to Liu Changge, I don't care sooner or later."

Wang Jiawei waved his hand indifferently.

Xu Wen smiled.

"Why are you here at this time? You don't want to secretly inquire about the conditions and treatment I will give Liu Changge."

"Hey! You can see it, that's right, that's what I think."

Wang Jiawei chuckled.

The two looked at each other, then burst out laughing.

Liu Changge's manager on the side was a little puzzled.

Is the relationship between these two people good or not?
From Liu Changge's manager's point of view, the two fought over an actor, and neither of them would take a step back. Logically speaking, the relationship should not be good.

But looking at them now, it feels like nothing happened.

Could it be that the friendship between famous directors is like this?

It's so strange.

Xu Wen and Wang Jiawei were talking and laughing.

After waiting until Liu Changge finished filming, he walked in front of the two with an apologetic expression.

"Both directors, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"Since you feel sorry, then you can turn down Xu Wen's TV series and act in my movie."

Wang Jiawei said with a smile.

Liu Changge:? ? ?

Xu Wen laughed.

"Let me tell you, there are good movies every year, and it's okay if you don't act in movies, but good TV dramas are rare."

Liu Changge:? ? ?

Liu Changge's agent:? ? ?
"Look at Director Xu's words, what if your TV series hits the market?"

"What if your movie hits the market? I remember that your box office has not been very good."

"You've only filmed two TV series!"

Watching the two go from being intimate to facing each other.

Love and hate are only in an instant!

Liu Changge's manager was a little confused.

That's the beginning?
