This director is very reliable

Chapter 73 Many Questions
There was a hot topic before: Why does Ayouteng lose money every year?

The public explanation is: the cost of content procurement is too high!

In fact, the real reason is that there are too many bad dramas!
Let's put it this way, even if you spend 5 million to buy a TV series, if the show can be popular for 10 years, or even 1 years, the average is only [-] million a year, and if you make a sequel or a side story, you will still make a mess.

The internet doesn't work that way.

iQiyi and Huanrui, Fujixun Video and Xinli TV have all signed long-term cooperation agreements to customize dramas and lock in big stars and big IPs. No matter how bad the film is, they will buy it at a high price.

How high?
For example, iQiyi has 10 major S+ productions a year, and the total copyright expenditure is 50 billion!
S+ big production - either a big star, or a big IP, or a high-priced special effects team!
A bad show like "Ace Force" cost 2.83 million yuan, and iQiyi spent [-] million yuan to buy it...

If this drama can be discussed on Weibo for more than a month, I will write all these years of Huayu Wen in vain!
Sure enough, no one talked about it...

On average, a monthly expenditure of [-] million!
Spend the most money and make the worst drama, that's all, if you don't lose money, who will lose money?
Pulling back, to do this, you need one or several reliable teams, and the sun at noon is good...

In addition, Guo Songjiang took the initiative to recruit Liang Shengquan and Lin Yufen, who used to be Tang Ren's assistant directors.

The original time and space were poached by Huanrui, and now they are poached by Changlin Film and Television, so the fat water will not flow to outsiders!
It’s not considered poaching, just ask them to co-direct "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" and "A Slight Smile Is Allure"...

It's just that Tang Ren wasn't brought along!

Anyway, staying in Tang Ren, they will always be Li Guoli's deputy, and they will be the chief director when they come out!
……

Shen Changlin actually didn't expect the project "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" at first...

After all, there are too many copyrights in hand!

And puppet shows, he doesn't value them very much.

Most importantly, this drama seems to involve plagiarism or something...

It was Liu Shishi who asked him about the copyright of this play, and he remembered...

Liu Shishi asked because Cai Yinong was interested in "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms".

In Tang Ren’s post bar, Lao Cai often pours water, and there are many netizens who suggested that Tang Ren shoot "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms"...

In Yuanshikong, the copyright of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" was sold to Tang Ren, and it was never filmed. When it expired, it was sold to Hua Ce. Then Hua Ce approached Yang Xiaomi, and finally Hua Ce and Jiaxing cooperated in the filming. Then, Yang Xiaomi ushered in the second explosion of her career, reshaping herself as the queen and king of the ancient puppet show.

Then I realized that the heroine Gu Puppet is the correct way to play after leaving for half a lifetime...

I have always been in the ancient puppet world, "Fuyao", "Mrs. Huzhu" including "Jiao Zang"...

To put it another way, why Lao Cai has not filmed, one is that he may not have money, and the other is that he is not optimistic about it. After all, the fairy sword series is handy to make, and there is no need to worry about sales.

Rejecting Cai Yinong's copyright transfer proposal, Shen Changlin immediately approached Guo Songjiang and proposed to prepare "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms".

Then I asked Zhao Shan to do some market research, and just posted on Weibo saying that she was going to change this project, what suggestions do you have...

Then, there were tens of thousands of discussions!

Don't say anything like 'We must let Liu Yifei play Bai Qian...' or 'Ye Hua, I strongly recommend Brother Hu and Peng Yuyan'...

The enthusiasm of netizens alone made the company make up its mind, it can be done!
Then there was the routine torment again—who was going to sleep with Liu Yifei?

Online suggestions for Liu Yifei to play Bai Qian accounted for 90% of the time!
We can't fight against netizens.

Here comes the problem, Liu Yifei has already decided to become a movie actor, and it is unlikely that he will make an exception to make a TV series.

"Meng Hua Lu" is because there is really no drama appointment to find her...

What did Changlin Film and Television use to move her heart?
Could it be that the boss sacrificed himself?

Let's not mention this for now, Xue Xiaolu is here.

She is here for an interview, and together with Shen Changlin, they will discuss the casting of "Things in the Hand".

It was an interview with "China Film Report", and it was the last wave of publicity for "33 Days of Broken Relationship".

……

Not really an interview either, kind of like an interview.

Shen Changlin was sitting with Xue Xiaolu, Yao Miao asked questions, and the camera focused on the three of them.

"About the project "33 Days of Broken Relationship", may I ask, when you accepted the filming, did you consider the box office?"

By the way, "33 Days of Broken Relationship" has become a dark horse movie for nearly ten years...

"No," Xue Xiaolu shook her head, "I actually asked Producer Shen what this "33 Days of Broken Relationship" wanted to express. Movie, I'll take it!"

"Why use newcomers?"

"Because their audition performance is so suitable! We think that even if the box office is not successful, the word of mouth will not be too bad, so we will contribute two super newcomers to the Chinese film industry..."

"Did producer Shen do anything during the filming?"

Xue Xiaolu looked at Shen Changlin, a little unsure: "Went to the set for a day?"

"Well, we were dragged away by our producer Li Xiaoping..." Shen Changlin smiled: "I think the best producer is to leave the director alone after choosing the director, trust the director, respect the director... and Director Xue's ability is very good. clear…"

"Then Changlin, which identity do you prefer? Producer or director?"

"I don't care. To me, it's all the same. If I'm interested in a movie but don't really want to direct it, I'll choose to be a producer..."

"So, the first condition for you to agree to be the producer is that you are interested in this movie?"

"Correct!"

"Director Xue, will you continue to cooperate?"

Xue Xiaolu nodded: "Of course, in fact, in November last year, Changlin asked me to write a theme, the theme of an anti-idol drama... I have almost written it..."

"Anti-idol drama?"

Shen Changlin explained: "I read a saying before: What is the difference between a domineering president and a stinky hooligan? Many people say 'a domineering president will make you shy when he flirts with women, and a hooligan will make you sick'. The reason is that the domineering president is handsome, and most hooligans are horrible , but I can't figure it out, since the behavior is the same, why can the domineering president become the hero?"

Xue Xiaolu added: "Then we read a lot of banquet novels on the Internet, and the behavior of the domineering CEO in them is not only a hooligan, but also a criminal law!"

"This situation is not right. How can we forgive the domineering president for committing a crime? So, I asked Mr. Xue to write a work on the theme of an anti-idol drama... called "Things in the Hand"..."

Promote a wave of "Things in the Hand" in advance...

"What about the movies?"

"Also, some time ago we discussed the issue of going to the United States to give birth, and it is possible to make a movie."

This may not be allowed to be broadcast, after all, going to the United States to give birth is a sensitive topic.

We chatted a few more words about "33 Days of Broken Relationship", promoted the drama version and the drama version, and the people from "China Film Report" left.

The staff came in and poured Xue Xiaolu a cup of tea. The latter sat down and waited for the staff to leave before asking, "Is there any suitable actor to recommend?"
