Actor: I picked up attributes on the set

Chapter 185 Every David TV is going crazy, 4000 yuan salary!
The results of the first week of the TV series "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" came out very quickly. In two days of broadcasting time, it directly ranked first in the ratings list of the dual network, and set a new record for the ratings of a weekly TV series.

Even the discussion rate of #花千媨#'s Weibo topic reached an astonishing 60 billion on the third day.

Originally, when this data was exposed, some netizens who had never watched the TV series said that it was too exaggerated, and it was identified as fake at a glance, and they did not believe that this TV series would have such an exaggerated influence.

Yet on the second day.

A piece of news accidentally appeared on the hot search. The content of the news is as follows: When a wanted criminal for stealing a car was evading arrest by the police, because "A Thousand Bone Flowers" was broadcast that night, he took his ID card to an Internet cafe to chase him down. In the end, the local police found his whereabouts and successfully captured him. Afterwards, the criminal suspect confessed that "he knew he was wanted by the police, but he couldn't help but want to watch the follow-up development of the plot of "The Thousand Bone of Flowers", so he went to the Internet cafe to catch up with the drama by chance." , but I didn’t expect that I didn’t get caught.”

This news hit Weibo's hot search, which can be said to have completely pushed the topic discussion of "A Thousand Bone Flowers" to a climax.

Audiences who have watched the drama "A Thousand Bone Flowers" can be said to empathize with the suspect's thoughts.

Even because the next episode cannot be watched until next week, many viewers left comments directly under Mango Channel’s official blog, asking Mango Channel to change the weekly broadcast to daily broadcast, otherwise they would give Mango Channel negative comments.

As a result, it was no surprise that all these comments fell into disarray in the end, and no official staff from Mango Channel responded.

And for those netizens who haven't watched the drama "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", after seeing such a high-level topic of discussion in this drama, they must be unable to restrain themselves.

After all, people live in groups. I saw my friends and colleagues discussing the topic of "A Thousand Bone of Flowers" all day long, but because I hadn't watched the show, I couldn't get in my mouth. In the end, I had no choice but to watch the replay. Make up for the drama "A Thousand Bones of Flowers".

Under the circumstances of this nationwide discussion, it is not surprising that topics related to the drama "Flower Thousand Bone" will dominate the Weibo hot search list for a long time.

With the first broadcast of "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" becoming popular, and even going out of the circle, other local satellite TVs began to feel a little restless, especially Zhejiang and Jiangsu, which have a certain audience base.

In the past, local satellite TV could still rely on classic old dramas such as "Bright Sword", "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to maintain their ratings. However, since 2014, several online video platforms have developed, and local The ratings of satellite TV also dropped again and again.

Audiences are not fools. If they want to pass the time by watching these classic old dramas, wouldn't they use their mobile phones to watch them on the online video platform? How could they still stay in front of the TV as before?

Therefore, local satellite TV has also reduced the rotation of these classic old dramas, and turned its attention to variety shows that cost less but are easier to get ratings, such as "Running Man", "Extremely Challenged", "Happy Comedian" and other high-rated variety shows were born at this time.

However, the facts have proved that the strategy of these local satellite TVs is not wrong. Their ratings have suddenly increased a lot, and even in certain periods of time, the ratings of Zhejiang Satellite TV even surpassed the veteran Mango TV.

However, the good times didn't last long. With the appearance of the TV series "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", the ratings of Mango TV returned to the peak, and regained the throne of the local satellite TV ratings champion with a crushing attitude.

How can this not make Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other satellite TVs that have just started to feel anxious.

Of course, in addition to these local satellite TVs, even online video platforms such as iQiyi and Youku immediately set their sights on the popular TV series "A Thousand Bones of Flowers".

Although they are jealous of the amazing achievements of the TV series "A Thousand Bone of Flowers", these employers are not fools. They did not follow suit and invest a lot of money in filming a TV series just because "A Thousand Bone of Flowers" became popular. Analyze it carefully.

Why is the drama "A Thousand Bone of Flower" so popular, and can they replicate the amazing performance of "A Thousand Bone of Flower"?

After meeting and discussing with their respective internal personnel, they finally summed up several reasons why "The Thousand Bone of Flower" was able to succeed.

First of all, because ancient costume fairy tale dramas have always been popular among the common people in the market, and have a broad mass base. Even if the reputation of the TV series is not as good as that of "Remaining Sin", but with the characteristics of being suitable for all ages, the ratings are higher than those at the time. "Remaining Sin" is even more exaggerated!
The second is that the plot rhythm of "A Thousand Bone of Flowers" is more compact than that of previous TV dramas. It lacks a lot of foreshadowing stories, but focuses on describing the relationship between characters. This is why audiences who have watched this drama, Looking forward to the following story, in the final analysis, the audience still wants to see the result of Bai Zihua and Hua Qiangu falling in love and killing each other in the end.

Although the last point is somewhat controversial, it is undeniable that Lin Yuan played a very important factor in the success of the drama "A Thousand Bone of Flowers".

You must know that when the crew of "A Thousand Bone of Flowers" did not announce Lin Yuan's role in this TV series at the beginning, although it was on the hot search list, it soon fell off again. In the end, Lin Yuan joined the other leading actors as a guest. On the stage of "Happy Camp", this brought "A Thousand Bone of Flower" back to the audience's field of vision.

In addition, this is the first time that Lin Yuan has appeared in this kind of ancient costume fairy tale drama, which has also attracted the attention of many netizens.

After analyzing the reasons why "A Thousand Bone of Flowers" achieved such success, various local satellite TV stations and online video platforms quickly took action, setting up projects and deciding to shoot new TV series to win back the ratings.

Unfortunately, Lin Yuan was directly involved in this battle for ratings!

It was the seventh day after "A Thousand Bone Flowers" aired.

So far, Lin Yuan has answered no less than [-] calls from David TV and online video platforms such as iQiyi and Youku.

After listening to the self-introduction of the other party, Lin Yuan was able to guess the purpose of their call without even needing to say anything else.

Without exception, they all wanted to find Lin Yuan to play the leading role in a TV series.

iQiyi, Zhejiang Satellite TV, and Mango TV will not explain these three, all of them have a cooperative relationship with Lin Yuan, "Remaining Sins", "Extreme Challenge", and "A Thousand Bone Flowers", the results are obvious to all, In addition, with the popularity of the TV series "A Thousand Bones", Lin Yuan's popularity quickly rushed to the TOP1 position in Baidu's hot search star index. The two David TV and iQiyi naturally want to follow Lin Yuan " Again later".

As for other satellite TVs, although they have not cooperated with Lin Yuan before, the results of Lin Yuan's works can be found online.

Businessmen are profit-seeking, everyone is not a fool, they can find other traffic stars to cooperate, but the problem is that other traffic stars can't even produce one or two works with achievements, and it is also costing such a big price, why not find Lin Yuan first What about this kind of strong guarantee?
It's just that what David TV didn't expect was that Lin Yuan rejected them all.

It's not because the script they gave was bad, on the contrary, with the drama "A Thousand Bone of Flower" as an example, all David TVs are also strictly checking the script of the next TV series.

Whether it is "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" prepared by Jiangsu Satellite TV, "Story of Yanxi Palace" prepared by Zhejiang Satellite TV, or "The Legend of Chu Qiao" which is about to start filming on Mango Channel, they are all good-quality scripts in TV with the same theme. Yuan is willing to act, and the ratings will definitely not be low.

The reason for rejecting all David TVs is because Lin Yuan has no plans to make a TV series at all.

It usually takes four to five months to shoot a TV series. If you are unlucky, you may not be able to complete it in seven or eight months. I haven't won the box office of tens of billions, so how can I spend time on TV series.

Considering this, Lin Yuan didn't even think about it, so he directly rejected the kindness of all David TVs.

I was about to turn the ringer of my phone to silent and wanted to take a nap.

Before Lin Yuan could start his action, the phone rang.

It's just that this time it wasn't the calls from David TV, but his manager, Ning Luoxia.

After seeing the name on the caller ID, Lin Yuan connected the call directly.

After the call was connected, Miss Xia's voice also came from the other end of the phone: "Lin Yuan, are you free this afternoon?"

You don't even need to think about it, there must be something looking for him.

"If you're free, if Miss Xia has anything to say, just talk about it."

After hearing Lin Yuan's answer, Miss Xia didn't go around the bush, and said straight to the point: "That's right, there are many directors who want to ask you to make a movie these days, and I asked them to keep the script. If you have time, come and take a look." Do you have a favorite script?"

Lin Yuan didn't find it surprising that other directors asked him to make movies.

With the popularity of "A Thousand Bone of Flowers", Lin Yuan's popularity in China can be said to be ridiculously high. At least during this period of time, Lin Yuan's popularity can be said to be ranked among the top three among all the stars, and even In terms of the popularity of online discussions, it is not an exaggeration to say that Lin Yuan is the most popular actor right now.

Under such circumstances, other directors naturally set their sights on Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan himself has acting skills and a certain fan base, and his previous works have always maintained such a good reputation. If they can let Lin Yuan appear in their own movies now, they only need a little publicity, and their movies will get a lot of attention. The attention of the audience.

This is not just as simple as saving a sum of publicity fees, but the most important thing is to directly arouse the audience's sense of expectation. Once the audience's curiosity is hooked, when the movie is released, is it still afraid that they will not Willing to shell out money for a movie ticket?
So in just a few days, a total of [-] or [-] directors contacted his manager, Ning Luoxia, and asked about Lin Yuan's schedule. If Lin Yuan's schedule conflicted, they were even willing to wait until Lin Yuan will start filming when he is free in the schedule.

Ning Luoxia didn't mention that Lin Yuan made the decision, but asked Lin Yuan about the basic situation of these movies, and then left the script.

Lin Yuan also heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that a director had asked him to make a movie.

As long as you don't ask him to make a TV series, everything is easy to talk about, and it doesn't take much time to find a script or two.

Thinking of this, he also agreed directly: "Okay, then I'll come over now."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan tidied up briefly, put on a mask and hat, left the apartment, and walked towards the company.

Within a few minutes, he swiped his card and entered the company. At first he was worried that he would be recognized by other artists in the company, but after getting closer, he realized that the artists in the company were discussing the plot of "A Thousand Bone Flowers", and they didn't pay attention at all. Lin Yuan, who played Bai Zihua, had just passed by the corridor.

After entering Sister Xia's office, Lin Yuan found that his habit of locking the door became more and more proficient.

Sister Xia didn't care about his habit at all, she just took a glance and confirmed that it was Lin Yuan who came in, then put down what she was doing.

Sister Xia opened the drawer, and handed Lin Yuan the movie script that had already been screened once: "Here is the script that was screened once according to your criteria last time. Can you see if there is anything suitable?"

I have to say that Sister Xia is still very responsible as a manager. Every time there are too many scripts, she will help Lin Yuan screen them in advance, which saves him a lot of time.

Lin Yuan took the script and read it carefully.

Originally, there were quite a few directors, but according to Lin Yuan's previous standards, after screening, there were only three scripts left, namely "Legend of the Demon Cat", "Bomb Disposal Expert" and "Sky Hunter".

Lin Yuan was more satisfied with the scripts of the first two films.

"Legend of the Demon Cat" is directed by Chen Kaige, and the quality of a movie with such a big director is basically not too bad.

Although movies like "Bomb Disposaler" are niche, but if this kind of main theme movie is full of emotions, it is easy to attract audiences to go to the cinema to watch it.

Both of these two movies have their own advantages, and it was indeed difficult for Lin Yuan to choose for a while.

Just when Lin Yuan was having trouble choosing which movie to choose, a phone call from the front desk suddenly called Sister Xia's office.

Sister Xia glanced at Lin Yuan, then picked up the microphone: "Hey, what's the matter?"

The company staff at the front desk replied: "Sister Xia, Director Tian Yusheng has something to do with you."

Director Tian Yusheng?
Ning Luoxia couldn't help being curious when she heard the name. Director Tian Yusheng had approached him before, saying that he wanted to find Lin Yuan to make a movie, but that movie was only a first-line star, which obviously didn't meet Lin Yuan's standards, so Xia My sister also politely rejected him directly, but I didn't expect Director Tian Yusheng to find him again.

But a big director has come over in person, so she can't let the front desk blow people away.

Ever since, Miss Xia quickly replied, "You can bring Director Tian Yusheng over here."

After saying that, Miss Xia hung up the phone, watched Lin Yuan focus on her, and added an explanation: "It's Director Tian Yusheng, who asked you to make a movie."

Lin Yuan is no stranger to Tian Yusheng.

When I first debuted, I didn’t take many films. Among them was "Predecessor Raiders" co-operated with director Tian Yusheng. I was busy making other movies, so I directly refused.

Lin Yuan also couldn't help muttering: I don't know what movie Director Tian plans to ask him to make this time.

Just at this time.

There was a knock on the office door, and Sister Xia got up and unlocked the door, welcoming Tian Yusheng who came suddenly: "Hi Director Tian, ​​let's talk if you have anything to do."

After Tian Yusheng walked in, he took advantage of the situation and closed the door again.

Lin Yuan also got up to say hello, and said, "Director Tian, ​​long time no see."

Tian Yusheng smiled, shook hands with Lin Yuan warmly and greeted him, as if he was not at all surprised that Lin Yuan was in the company.

After sitting down and talking to Lin Yuan politely, Tian Yusheng directly explained his reason for coming: "Lin Yuan, brother has a script in his hand, you must read it."

Obviously, he came here for Lin Yuan, and he seemed determined to win.

After hearing this, Lin Yuan nodded, and took the script handed over by director Tian Yusheng. Anyway, it won't take much time to read the script. If it's not suitable, he can just refuse it, and he can't just let him go home.

After opening the script, the words "Predecessor Raiders [-]" directly came into view.

Originally, Lin Yuan thought that after "Predecessor 2" hit the box office, director Tian Yusheng would definitely give up this IP. Unexpectedly, after a year, director Tian made a comeback with "Predecessor 3".

In fact, Tian Yusheng had no choice.

After "Predecessor Raiders" became popular, he wrote the second script with great ambitions. Due to Lin Yuan's schedule conflict, he found Zheng Kai to play the leading role. On to the self-doubt.

Fortunately, he finally came out of the failure and decided to return to the old way of "Predecessor 1". No matter what he said, the two original stars Han Geng and Lin Yuan had to return to "Predecessor 3".

He has already contacted Han Geng, and now it can be said that everything is ready, only Lin Yuan is missing.

So after Sister Xia declined him, he didn't leave, but directly stayed in a hotel near Xitian Media Company. Not long after Lin Yuan entered the company, he received the news and hurried over.

Seeing that Lin Yuan was about to go through the script quickly, Tian Yusheng also showed anticipation in his eyes, looked at Lin Yuan and said, "Lin Yuan, what do you think of this script?"

"Yes, it feels like there should be a market."

Lin Yuan nodded, at least this script is much better than the plot of "Predecessor 1".

As for some minor problems, it is harmless. The box office will definitely be higher than the previous two works, but Lin Yuan is not sure how high it can reach. After all, he cannot represent the tastes of the audience.

Seeing that Lin Yuan was quite satisfied with the script, Tian Yusheng also struck while the iron was hot, directly showing his sincerity: "Lin Yuan, if you are willing to act in this movie, I can increase your salary to 4000 million!"

If it were someone else, Tian Yusheng would give a salary of 2000 million at most, even if it was Han Geng who played the most roles, his salary would only be 300 million.

Giving Lin Yuan a salary of 4000 million yuan is because he is interested in Lin Yuan's current traffic, and secondly, he believes in Lin Yuan's box office appeal. 3" In this movie, there are only Lin Yuan and Han Geng, and the heroine doesn't spend much money.

In this case, he can completely discuss it with the investor, even if there is an extra 2000 million in salary, it is still a profitable deal.

After director Tian Yusheng offered his salary, Lin Yuan originally wanted to refuse, but now, he was a little uncertain.

The scripts of "The Legend of the Demon Cat" and "The Bomb Disposal Expert" are good, but in Lin Yuan's view, the box office will be 3 to 3 million higher than that of "Predecessor [-]", and it may even not be as good as "Predecessor [-]". This thing, no one can say for sure.

However, the 4000 million remuneration given by director Tian Yusheng is a real benefit.

Besides, judging from the cast of the two films "Legend of the Demon Cat" and "Bomb Disposaler", it is impossible for me to pick up any attributes from those actors, which further reduces the importance of the two films in Lin Yuan's heart. Weights.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan gave his own answer: "Director Tian, ​​since you have shown your sincerity, it is not good for me to refuse, so I wish us a happy cooperation."

With the sound of Lin Yuan's voice, the stone in Director Tian Yusheng's heart finally fell.

He can now be said to be counting on the movie "Predecessor 3" to turn around. If the box office hits the market due to casting reasons, he will definitely regret it until he grows old. Now that Lin Yuan has agreed, the box office guarantee is two One hundred million, in this case, as long as he presents the picture he wants to the audience during the filming process, the box office will definitely be a big hit!
Tian Yusheng excitedly shook hands with Lin Yuan, seemed to remember something, and said hastily: "Then it's settled, I'll tell the management right away, and bring the contract directly when the time comes."

With that said, Tian Yusheng directly stuffed the script into Lin Yuan's hands, said goodbye, and hurried out of the office.

Now he has to clarify the pros and cons with the investor. With Lin Yuan in the role, I believe the investor is willing to invest more, but if the investor is still unmoved, even if he wants to borrow money, he has to take Lin Yuan The extra 2000 million paychecks were taken out.

in the office.

Lin Yuan put the scripts of "Legend of the Demon Cat", "Bomb Disposaler" and "Sky Hunter" on the table, looked at Sister Xia, and said, "Sister Xia, please tell these directors Come on, I've already received the movie."

Sister Xia nodded, and replied bluntly, "Okay!"

She wasn't surprised by Lin Yuan's choice at all. Even if she were to choose, she would definitely let Lin Yuan shoot "Predecessor 3" directed by Tian Yusheng.

The box office is indeed important, but if an actor who does not have box office appeal, no one knows how much box office can be won after the movie. On the contrary, the salary is a real thing that can be obtained.

After chatting about the future arrangements in the office for a while, Lin Yuan looked at the time and asked, "Is sister Xia still busy? If not, I will go back after a while."

"What's the hurry, I haven't finished the matter yet." Sister Xia gave Lin Yuan a blank look, and said angrily, "There is one more thing I want to ask you. If you have a good book, would you like to make a movie?"

Lin Yuan was at a loss for what he said, and he didn't react for a while.

Without thinking about it, he refused: "I have already confirmed that there are two movies I want to make, so how can I have time to take other movies?"

Seeing Lin Yuan's confused look, Miss Xia knew that Lin Yuan must have misunderstood.

So he hurriedly explained: "I don't want you to just be an actor and make a movie like this. Are you interested in directing and acting in a movie by yourself?"

It was only then that Lin Yuan came to his senses.

Directing and acting in a movie?
This made him suddenly think of Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bo and others. They also filmed well before, and then began to want to direct and act in a movie by themselves.

However, he really thought about this idea before, but because he didn't have enough funds, he dismissed the idea.

"Sister Xia, with my little savings, if I really want to make a movie, I'm afraid I have to go to Japan to shoot it." After teasing, Lin Yuan also asked back: "Sister Xia, why did you think of asking me about this?"

Sister Xia replied with a serious expression: "An investor came to me and said that they would provide the book and investment, and asked if you would like to direct and act in the movie yourself. You finally came to the company. I must ask you in person. .”

Generally well-known actors, most of them will direct and act in one or two movies later. First, they want to prove themselves, but more importantly, they have capital behind them willing to invest.

Many movies have mediocre scripts, but it is because of the gimmick that these top actors direct and act that many viewers are willing to spend money to buy movie tickets to support it. The box office of the first film he acted in will not be too low.

And Lin Yuan's popularity is still high now, coupled with the fact that he has always maintained a good reputation on the Internet, if he releases the word now that he has directed and acted in a work, there will definitely be a large number of audiences willing to pay for movie tickets to see it .

Lin Yuan quickly saw the essence of this matter clearly, but he still wanted to agree.

the reason is simple.

When he was making a movie before, he picked up so many attributes on the set. His understanding of the characters in the script can basically be said to be at the ceiling level. In addition, he has worked with so many powerful actors. This one also has a deep understanding.

In other words, he can definitely figure out whether a movie has a market or not.

With a suitable script and a suitable cast, the film produced will definitely not hit the street. As for how much money can be made, it can be seen whether the film produced meets the tastes of the general audience.

But he only has this idea temporarily.

I still have so many things on hand, after dealing with the things at hand, it is also a good choice to find time to try to direct and act in a movie by myself.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan also replied to Sister Xia: "Sister Xia, I have to think about this matter, and I will give you an answer later."

Sister Xia also knew that such an important matter must be carefully considered.

If Lin Yuan directly agrees, she will definitely persuade him to think more about it then.

After chatting with Sister Xia about the business, Lin Yuan didn't stay at the company, but returned to the apartment early, sorted out his arrangements, and decided to talk to Huang Bo or Wang Baoqiang tomorrow about self-directing and acting.
