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

There have been some rumors in Xu Wen's company recently.

The female artist Zhao Ya, who had just signed a contract, was blocked by the company in disguise because she offended the boss.

Not only was there no activity in the next half a year, even the scene that was just on the scene fell through.

Some interested people want to dig out more information.

Although there are various versions, but the general direction is Zhao Ya, who actually wanted to use sex to solve the problem after making a mistake, but happened to bump into the big boss.

Thus led to this tragedy.

For such a thing, everyone can only blame the female artist for being unlucky after hearing about it.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry.

If you are lucky, if you are favored by the boss, you may rise to the top and rise in one step.

Those who are less lucky may be the fate of that female artist.

Numerous predecessors have used bloody examples to prove to newcomers who want to step into this industry that sometimes taking shortcuts depends on luck.

Zhao Ya's affairs basically did not cause any ripples.

That is, people inside the company talked about it for two or three sentences, but no one discussed it.

She wasn't popular enough to be in the news for a little thing.

And the "big brother" Xu Wen quickly put this matter behind him.

After chatting with Zhang Min that day, Xu Wen went home and started preparing his comeback work.

Since it is a comeback work, Xu Wen has also thought it through carefully.

What he wants is to shoot a work that is mainly based on word of mouth.

Of course, the ratings should be as good as possible.

After all, there are still people who take a photo of a beggar on the Internet and spread rumors that he was squeezed out in the drama theater to the point where he could only eat garbage on the floor.

He was both funny and speechless.

After he moved the idea of ​​returning to the showbiz, he was thinking about the works he wanted to shoot.

From "Human World" to "Everything is Good", "Knowledge", "Langya Bang" and "Wulin Biography".

Whether it is a work with realistic themes or urban themes.

Even house fights, scheming, and sitcoms, he has dabbled in.

After much deliberation, Xu Wen planned to find an accurate entry point.

Suspense!
Suspense films have always been a thankless type in the genre of TV dramas.

Because compared with other dramas, suspense films require much stronger logic.

What the audience sees is the plot logic one by one, and how the protagonist uses his own logic to break through the predicament in these logics.

It can be said that there is no drama that has greater control over the plot than suspense films.

Suspense films are not easy to make, and they may not be popular if they are made well.

This is the embarrassment of suspense films.

Because suspense films can easily become documentaries if the content and rhythm are not well shaped.

The audience watched it like chewing wax.

This is why, when other dramas continue to emerge, the genre of suspense films has always been tepid.

Even when the central station was planning the "cultural export" project, they didn't pay much attention to suspense films.

It is also enough to see what kind of situation the current domestic suspense is in.

But suspense films also have an advantage that other dramas do not have.

That is, once a suspense film becomes popular, its shelf life is much longer than that of other dramas.

And the stamina is stronger than other dramas.

It can be said to be a double-edged sword.

One is good and the other is bad.

There is no intermediate value.

The reason why Xu Wen wants to make suspense films is because among so many dramas, he has never tried suspense films.

Now that he planned to return, he didn't want to continue living on his laurels.

Otherwise, if it creates topicality, he can take out a work he has filmed before and make a sequel.

The nature of the return is the same as that of the suspense film.

It's either a big comeback or nothing at all.

Obviously, Xu Wen didn't want to have no splashes at all.

So before leaving the theater, he locked in the suspenseful work he wanted to shoot.

"The Hidden Corner"!
As a phenomenon-level suspense work, its appearance directly broke the record of the highest suspense film score held by "White Night Chasing the Murder" on Douban.

More than 28 people gave it a score of 9.0, and the highest score was close to 9.2!
Although there are only 12 short episodes, its influence is no worse than those TV series with 40 episodes and 50 episodes.

Douban's popularity index has been ranked first for a long time, directly crushing all kinds of star dramas broadcast in the same period.

The scarf has been searched more than 50 times.

The total playback volume exceeds 16 billion!
The average broadcast volume of each episode is around 1.18 million.

Many artists, directors, and producers in the circle posted articles, calling it a suspense film that can compete with top European and American dramas.

After "The Hidden Corner", there are domestic suspense films with the same discussion as it, but there is no such thing.

Even when it was broadcast, the song "Little White Boat" was a smash hit, with over 10 billion views!
"Mountain climbing" has also become an enduring stalk.

It can be said to be a well-received and well-received work.

This is also the work that Xu Wen decided to come up with after careful consideration.

Its script was almost finished before Xu Wen left the theater.

Up to now, we only need to perfect some specific details.

This process also took Xu Wen two days.

Fortunately, "The Hidden Corner" has only 12 episodes.

So Xu Wen didn't spend much time on the script.

After finishing the script, Xu Wen called Zhang Min and asked her to arrange things to be filmed.

And Zhang Min also showed enough attention to Xu Wen's project.

Almost allocated the company's best team to Xu Wen.

Many of these people are people who have worked with Xu Wen on several TV series before.

After working for 2 years, I am now more or less the leader of the team.

For the re-cooperation with Xu Wen, Zhang Min is basically not required to shout.

They signed up voluntarily.

After all, if they didn't have the experience of working under Xu Wen, they wouldn't be in their current position.

After confirming the team of the main creator, Xu Wen did not delay, and chose a low-key day to convene the main creator to prepare for the project preparation meeting.

"Sister Min, many investors are interested in my new project "Girl of the Gulf", but I still plan to use our company's own team."

Inside Zhang Min's office.

A man with an inch was talking to her.

Zhang Min listened patiently, and after Bancunnan finished speaking, he smiled and poured him a cup of coffee.

"Okay, your project was approved last month. If you plan to start filming after the specific date, just give me a date. I can rest assured that you will do things."

If you want to say who the boss treats with the most enthusiasm, it must be the company's top seller.

During the two years when Xu Wen went to the theater for further study, the performance of the director department in the company was supported by Huang Yu alone.

Two successful TV dramas in succession have given Huang Yu a firm foothold in the industry.

It is also the object that many producers want to cooperate with.

Naturally, Zhang Min was a little more polite to him.

"Hahahaha, what you said made me feel a little embarrassed. By the way, this is the team member I plan to use. Please, Miss Min, let me know."

Huang Yu smiled and handed a list to Zhang Min.

After Zhang Min took the list, he glanced at it and frowned.

"Huang Yu, I'm afraid there are a few people on your list who can't come, such as photographer Zhang, planner Xiao Liu, and artist Huang, and others."

Zhang Min Lin always mentioned a dozen people.

Huang Yu frowned when she heard this, because the people Zhang Min picked out were all teams that had collaborated with him on two works.

"Sister Min, the people you picked out are people who have collaborated with me on two works. You picked them up for me, what should I do?"

"Huang Yu, I'm sorry, these people have been assigned other tasks by me."

"What mission? Shooting mission?"

Huang Yu was a little unhappy.

Zhang Min nodded.

"Director Xu Wen came back and planned to shoot a work, so I assigned the team to him."

"Director Xu Wen."

Huang Yu grumbled.

He remembered that a few days ago, Xu Wen returned from his two-year study in the theater.

At that time, there was a lot of commotion in the company, because it also banned a female artist who had just signed a contract.

Huang Yu knew about Xu Wen.

After all, when he first started working, Xu Wen was in full swing.

However, after he really became popular, Xu Wen half-retired.

Therefore, many people in the circle compare him with Xu Wen.

Call him Xu Wen's successor, or the second Xu Wen.

Originally, he was very happy with these titles.

But as he stayed in the circle longer and longer, his fame grew.

Some artists that he once needed to look up to also began to take the initiative to send him messages asking for a role.

The filter of the entertainment industry was shattered in his heart.

So for Xu Wen, he now doesn't have the sense of awe that he had at the beginning.

There is even a hint of the idea of ​​teaching each other.

But this thought just flashed through his mind.

Hearing Xu Wen's name now, Huang Yu didn't feel excited, but felt a little psychologically unbalanced.

I help the company to shoot two or three popular works.

As a result, as soon as Xu Wen came back, you allocated my team to him?

then what do I do?
Huang Yu received a lot of preferential treatment in the company, which made him take it for granted that the company's good resources should be tilted towards him.

"Sister Min, now that the company has given a good team to Director Xu, what should I do? My project also attracts a lot of attention from the management, so you can't give me a new team, right?"

Huang Yu put down the coffee in his hand heavily.

Zhang Min smiled.

"Except for the people I mentioned, you can choose any other team in the company."

"But I'm not used to working with newcomers, otherwise I have to re-adapt to many things. These people have been with me for two years, and now they suddenly give it to someone else. It's not good for me or the team."

Huang Yu still said indignantly.

Zhang Min sneered, and looked at Huang Yu contemptuously.

"To others? Do you know who this team followed before you?"

"Director Xu?"

"That's right! This team was cultivated by Xu Wen. Why do you think your first work was able to shoot so smoothly? Why are two or three works in succession so good? Can you deny that there is no team here to bring you Is there any help? Not to mention the plot, the team members have given me a lot of suggestions."

Zhang Min said lightly.

Huang Yu was silent.

There is no exaggeration in what Zhang Min said.

More than half of my own success should be attributed to this experienced team.

This is why Huang Yu is unwilling to let go.

"Then I have worked with the team for so long and I have a tacit understanding. Sister Min, don't you consider the team's own opinion?"

Huang Yuren said without giving up.

Zhang Min said with a half-smile.

"Let's make a bet. You contact the people in the team yourself and ask for their opinions. If there are more than 6 people who are willing to go with you to shoot the project, then I call the shots and allocate the entire team to you."

"real?!"

Huang Yu was startled.

Zhang Min chuckled.

"Of course it's true."

"Okay! Then I'll contact the team now, sister Min, don't regret it."

Huang Yu excitedly took out his mobile phone.

The corners of Zhang Min's mouth rose slightly.

"I do not regret!"

"We are shooting a suspense film this time. Although it is small in size, it has great content."

In the conference room, Xu Wen was explaining some specific things about "The Hidden Corner" to the team members.

They are all old friends who have cooperated for many years.

Even after 2 years of separation, it is very smooth to cooperate again.

After reminiscing about the past, we began to enter the topic.

However, at this moment, people in the conference room received text message notifications one after another.

After reading it, he lowered his head and replied the message.

After that, he raised his head again and participated in the discussion of the project.

As if nothing had happened.

Xu Wen saw this scene, although he found it strange.

But no one brought it up, so he pretended he didn't see it and continued talking.

a few days later.

"Okay, now that we have discussed all the specific matters, let's talk about the actors."

Xu Wen sat down and looked at everyone.

The assistant director spoke first.

"This time we need three child actors, and the test of acting skills is not small. I suggest that we can dig out from some other directors. They must have a lot of information on child actors, but who will Zhang Dongsheng choose to play? This The characters are also extremely important key figures in the play.”

After the assistant director finished speaking, other people in the team also proposed some choices of actors one after another.

Some received unanimous praise, while others were met with disapproval.

Then the assistant director spoke.

"Zhang Dongsheng's actor has a difficulty, that is, he needs to shave his head, because Zhang Dongsheng's character is a man with a bald head. I am afraid that these male artists will not accept such a big change."

The assistant director's words made the hall immediately quiet.

Actors nowadays pay great attention to their own image, because they have many other things besides acting.

Such as business endorsement, participation in activities and so on.

Shaving your head is already the extreme that most male artists can accept.

Now let them bald, with this image, I am afraid that many male artists will not be so decisive.

After all, for the role of "Zhang Dongsheng", the team agreed that it was necessary to find a well-known actor.

Otherwise, all of them are unknown actors, fearing that they won't get attention.

Xu Wen groaned.

"How about this, when you invite these male artists again, you should make this matter clear to them, and if it doesn't work, we'll replace them."

Everyone in the team nodded.

At this moment, the assistant director rolled his eyes to the door, and suddenly stood up in surprise.

"Boss Min is here."
