This star is wrong

After the press conference was over, major entertainment media rushed to report on the content of the press conference of Ark Culture and Pea Video.

Not only entertainment media, but also economic channels are reporting on it.

All of a sudden, the Ark Culture and Pea videos were all over the internet.

[Will Ark Culture’s stake in Pea Video change the current pattern of the online video industry? 】

[Ark Culture and Penguin Video broke?Why invest in Pea Video? 】

[Pea Dou Video ranks among the top three video websites with its self-made content of excellent quality.Will joining forces with Ark Culture bring self-made film and television dramas to a higher level? 】

[Does the rumored VAM agreement exist?What kind of gambling conditions made Ark Culture and Pea Video join forces? 】

[Will Pea Video pose a threat to Penguin Video after it acquires a stake in Ark Culture? 】

There is a lot of economic news about the two companies.

However, relatively speaking, there are relatively few netizens who pay attention to economic news, so although the popularity of these economic news is not low, they are basically not in the top ten most searched.

Entertainment news is different.

As soon as the press conference ended, the entertainment news about the new drama of Ark Culture rushed to the top of the trending searches, and then reached the top of the list within three hours.

[Ark Culture released a new play plan, Fang Xing will play two roles. 】

[Combined with the "Mist Theater" opened by Pea Video, Fang Xing's new play should be of the suspense type. 】

[Fang Xing's new play is confirmed to be suspenseful, is it another "The Beginning"? 】

[Although "The Beginning" is popular, the performances of the male and female protagonists are not eye-catching. Fang Xing's new drama plays two roles, can it become a high-profile version of "The Beginning"? 】

[After a year, Fang Xing's new drama started filming, can he continue to write the myth?Or fall to the altar. 】

Under these gossip news, fun people, passers-by, netizens, and black fans are all discussing.

[I finally started filming dramas. I have been out of dramas for a whole year, and I have watched "Langya Bang" three times. 】

[I can finally stop watching "Wulin Biography"?I can dream of Qixia Town in my dreams now. 】

[Suspense, I'm looking forward to it.However, it is better for the hero and heroine to be brighter than "The Beginning". Although "The Beginning" is popular, it is all supporting roles that stand out. 】

[It doesn’t feel like it’s in the genre of “The Beginning”. Since it’s going to be a “fog theater”, it should be a more orthodox suspenseful criminal investigation drama.After all, it is necessary to set the tone for the style of "Mist Theater". 】

[Indeed, I also feel that it should be a suspenseful criminal investigation, or a similar police film. The first drama of "Mist Theater", if the style is too biased, it does not fit the tone of this theater. 】

【Can't you sing well?How long has it been since you released a new song? 】

[I like songs and dramas, can't I have both? 】

[Although Lu Xianger won the competition to win glory for the country, but Fang Xing went on strike for more than half a year, which is too outrageous. 】

……

The day after the press conference.

Ark Culture held meetings non-stop to establish projects and began preparations for new dramas.

"The production team started preparations, contacted the various teams, and started the machine two weeks later. The casting director worked overtime today to send audition invitations to the actors' union. The list of assistant directors..."

Fang Xing announced the list of crew members vigorously and resolutely, but Zhang Yigao was left out in the end.

After everyone in the director's team had called their names, Zhang Yi raised his hand: "Boss Fang, I... forgot about me."

He has always been the assistant director for Fang Xing, so Zhang Yigao thought he would be the assistant director this time.

Fang Xing smiled lightly and said, "You won't join my crew this time."

"do not."

Zhang Yigao immediately felt the crisis and hurriedly explained: "Some time ago, a producer from another company did invite me to dinner. He was a former schoolmate. I have known him for more than ten years. It was just a normal meal, nothing else."

Fang Xing laughed and said: "Who cares who you have dinner with, this time we want to open 'Mist Theater' on Pea Video, one show is not enough.

"I discussed it with Mr. Zhou of Pea Films and Television, and then came up with a script. You use the crew of Pea Films to make a suspense drama.

"I've watched a few MVs directed by you, and I like to use suspenseful scenes. I'll give you a chance to try it out."

When Zhang Yigao heard it, his eyes lit up: "Really? Is Mr. Fang writing the script himself?"

Fang Xing nodded and said in affirmation: "Yes, I will write the script. The two crews will shoot together, and then the resources of the crew can be coordinated. I have already said hello to the Pea Film and Television team. In a few days, you will bring the script to meet them. Touch it.

"However, I want to remind you that I am the producer of the drama you filmed, so I will supervise it when the time comes.

"I don't allow this drama to be badly shot. If I think it doesn't meet my standards, I may choose to stop filming and wait until I finish filming the drama at hand before taking over."

When Zhang Yigao heard this, he immediately felt pressured, but he was also excited inside.

This is the opportunity to be a director again, but once the filming is not good, there may be no chance in the future.

This industry has always been like this, if there is no ability, there will be no filming.

Zhang Yigao once fell into underestimation. He had no movies to shoot and could only do odd jobs on the crew.

It was Fang Xing who fished him up.

Following Fang Xing to experience six blockbuster dramas, at the beginning of this year, he finally got the chance to direct alone, filming "Fenghua of the Tang Dynasty".

From the perspective of an ordinary director, "The Great Tang Dynasty" was actually a success, but it was not a big hit.

However, Zhang Yigao actually didn't want to shoot ancient puppets in his heart, and hoped to shoot some more challenging themes.

Suspense dramas are undoubtedly a more challenging type of drama.

Of course, the more challenging it is, the more difficult it is to shoot well.

Suspense dramas are not like idol dramas. The plots of idol dramas are sloppy, and fans can still watch the show for the sake of the leading actor's appearance, licking the screen to finish the drama.

However, suspense dramas are different.

For the sake of realism, suspense dramas tend to be realistic, and even the makeup of the lead actors is very rough.

Moreover, the selection of actors will tend to be acting, not idol.

This means that once the plot of a suspense drama is bad, it will be bad to the end, and there will be no fans to follow the show.

This is also the reason why Fang Xing asked Zhang Yigao to take a good shot.

Zhang Yigao took a deep breath, and promised: "Mr. Fang, don't worry, I will do my best."

in fact.

Zhang Yigao has been working at Ark Culture for the past few years and is already in his fourth year. He is very generous, but when he vouched for Fang Xing, he was very much like a student vouching for his teacher.

Fang Xing took out a script printed on A4 paper from his briefcase, handed it over, and said, "This is the script. You should read it when you go back. Someone from Pea Films will contact you then."

Zhang Yigao took the script, turned around nervously, and looked at the title of the script on the cover: "The Dark One."

Fang Xing added: "There is an analysis of the characters in the script. Try to choose actors according to the characters. It doesn't matter whether they are handsome or not. The important thing is their acting skills."

Zhang Yigao assured: "Understood! I have been with Mr. Fang for so many years, and I understand the importance of acting skills."

Fang Xing then added: "I will consider turning this "Dark One" script into a series. Of course, the premise is that the first part is successful. If the first part is completed, there will be a second part. Even a third one.”

Zhang Yigao was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened.

His heart is beating wildly, if this show is really made into a series.

That means that he has a series of TV series as his masterpiece, and he is not an assistant director, but a director.

"Thank you Mr. Fang, I will definitely take a good shot."

Zhang Yigao knew that this might be the most important opportunity in his life.

He also filmed Xiaohuo's online dramas before, and then he started to let himself go, making several films in a row. After that, no film and television company was willing to invest in him.

Ten years have passed.

He is no longer as frivolous as he was back then, he has calmed down a lot, and his views on TV dramas have also changed.

In addition, in the past few years, Fang Xing has filmed so many hit dramas, and many ideas have gradually matured.

After this year, he will be 40 years old.

Although for a director, 40 years old is not too old, but I am afraid that there will be no second chance of such a life-changing opportunity.

Therefore, he knew how important this script was.

"Boss Fang, then I'll go back and read the script first."

Zhang Yigao couldn't wait any longer, and now wanted to go back and read the script.

"Can you also ask about the investment amount?" Fang Xing said with a smile.

"Um, that's right. How much investment is there in this drama?" Zhang Yigao asked hurriedly.

"The plan is A-level investment. Our company leads half of the investment, and the other half will be shared by Pea Video and other film and television investment companies." Fang Xing replied.

A-level investment means investing between 4000 million and 9000 million.

Usually, if the investment is hundreds of millions, it will be rated as S grade.

For a suspense TV series, as long as no big-name stars are invited, A-level investment is enough.

"Okay, I understand. Then I'll go back and read the script first." Zhang Yigao pointed to the door of the conference room.

"Go." Fang Xing nodded in agreement.

Zhang Yigao quickly rushed back to the office with the script of "Dark Man" in his hand.

He didn't go home anymore, so he started reading the script in the office, and the more he read it, the more excited he became.

I began to conceive in my mind, which actor should be invited to play the role in the play.

……

in the conference room.

The preparatory meeting for Fang Xing's new play continued.

Qiao Yinghong asked: "Boss, do you want to invite the queen to join in this new drama?"

Fang Xing shook his head and replied: "In this drama, there is no room for drama, so let's forget it. If there is anyone willing to make a cameo, that would be fine."

Qiao Yinghong then asked, "Has the script of the new play been finished yet?"

Because Fang Xing just gave Zhang Yigao a script, the second script may not be available now.

Fang Xing nodded and replied: "It's almost done, I will send the analysis of the role and the requirements for casting to the group later, and the casting director will contact the actors as required.

"The first version of the script is almost ready, and it will be ready by next week."

The script is not unchanged from the beginning, and the script can even be modified according to the shooting situation.

The script that Fang Xing wants to shoot has been basically completed, and the next step is to audition the actors and form a crew.

When all these are done, the script will be finished.

Although it was said that Fang Xing hadn't filmed a drama for more than half a year and was playing with Lu Xianger, but for such a long time, it's not like he didn't do anything.

The script of "Dark Man" was created during this time.

However, Fang Xing finally decided to give "Dark Man" to Zhang Yigao to shoot.

After all, the scale of Ark Culture is getting bigger and bigger, and it is impossible for the crew to serve Fang Xing alone, so the company has to produce more film and television dramas.

Entrusting the "Dark Man" series to Zhang Yigao is an attempt.

In the future, Ark Culture will cooperate with more directors to increase the output of film and television dramas.

A video website, in addition to popular dramas, also needs slightly more ordinary dramas to fill the gap.

……

a week later.

Ark Culture is the first to release the casting announcement for "Dark Man".

It's just that after this announcement came out, a round of doubts arose.

[Why is the director Zhang Yigao?Didn't they say it was Fang Xing's play? 】

[Is this a lie?And it didn't say that Fang Xing was starring? 】

[Although "Fenghua of the Tang Dynasty" is also in the category of being able to watch, it is far from "Langya Bang".I was originally waiting to watch a magical drama, but now you can make me a fast food. 】

[To be honest, the gap is a bit big. 】

[Is it possible that "Dark One" is not the one Fang Xing mentioned? 】

【Why not? The genre of "Dark Man" is a suspenseful criminal investigation, which is obviously prepared for the Misty Theater. 】

In the debate of netizens.

This topic has become a trending topic.

However, it didn't take long to be on the hot search.

Ark Culture has released a new casting announcement, and "White Night Chasing Murder" has officially started casting.

As soon as this news came out, all the doubts of netizens were immediately answered.

[It turns out that Fang Xing did not write the previous one.cough!Made me crazy. 】

This announcement.

"White Night Chase" is indeed directed by Fang Xing, and the leading actor has already been decided, which is Fang Xing himself.

【Fuck!It turns out that I was filming two dramas at once.But if you do two shows at once, will you be overwhelmed? What if the quality of the show deteriorates? 】

[Probably not. I just checked and found out that "Dark One" is directed by Zhang Yigao, and the crew was put together by Ark Culture and Pea Films.Besides, it is normal for many film and television companies to shoot three to five dramas a year. No one would think that the crew would take a break for more than half a year after filming one drama, right? 】

[Indeed, the quality of Pea Video's self-produced dramas has always been good. With director Zhang Yigao and Fang Xing producing, I think not only "White Night Chaser", but "Dark Man" can also be looked forward to. 】

[Now we can look forward to it, the casting is really starting. 】

[Director, take a look at our monsoon, how is it? 】

[Director, look here, look here, Liu Jifeng’s acting skills are really good. 】

[Give our family Chenchen a chance. 】

Fans of various idols began to comment on the dynamics released by Ark Culture, recommending their idols.

These comments were also promoted to the front row.

However, there are quite a few Leziren's eccentric comments below:
[I think you should stop harming your idols.Fang Xing is famous for auditioning Yan Luo, and when the time comes, he will make your brother cry and have to come back and scold him. 】

[You who act in idol dramas, dare to join this crew? 】

【Fang Xing never uses traffic, it's no secret. 】

[Who said that Fang Xing never used traffic?Which drama of his has no traffic?Why is he himself top-notch! 】

【All right.I couldn't refute it. 】

[Didn’t Fang Xing say that one person would play two roles in the new drama?What kind of characters are they?Playing a father and son? 】

In film and television dramas, if the time span of the drama is long enough, there will indeed be a character playing the role of father and son.

[I don't think it's suspenseful, so you can't play father and son alone, right?That time span is too big, and if this is the case, there is no need for publicity. ] (End of this chapter)
