China Entertainment: The happiness of being a director is as simple as that

Chapter 99 Planning, the first money-absorbing director
Back to the company.

The screenwriting team formed by Wu Guohua before has now come to fruition.

This time I came here to screen those who can finally join the company.

There are 16 people in total, there are no celebrities, and Lu Pingan doesn't need any celebrities, what he wants is normal people.

Now the average age of these 16 people is 33 years old, and they all have at least 5 years of experience in the industry.

In the process of adapting the script, the localization of lines and situations is currently the first problem that Lu Pingan encounters. At this time, it is the skeleton modification of the script and the optimization of the unreasonable plot. Optimization of the theme.

Almost all of Lu Pingan's movies currently only deal with the first problem.

At this point, Jiang Wen, a big cow, contributed to him a "transcendence", and Jiang Wen's transcendence is not simply optimized lines. It is difficult for ordinary portraits to reach his level. is dependent on him.

So the screenwriting team is more important.

To go beyond, you have to optimize from all aspects.

Even if he can't go beyond, he can adapt with less effort, and the works can be better localized.

After meeting with everyone and a brief explanation, Lu Pingan gave the screening criteria.

"The next task for everyone is to give full play to their strengths and perfect the script."

This time Lu Ping An only gave a theme and a general idea.

Let's see how these people perform.

He will choose 5 of them to stay, and then continue to improve.

The 16 people were eager to fight, and their eyes were shining.

The person in front of him is the great director Lu Pingan.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that if you really can join the stars, the treatment is quite generous.

"Okay, everyone knows about the non-disclosure agreement, I hope you don't do stupid things."

"clear."

Everyone nodded in assurance.

Lu Ping'an wasn't too worried. This was just a test. In the end, he wouldn't use the script he produced now. Even if it leaked, it doesn't matter. The finished film is a bad film. Can a big director make a bad film? So if it gets leaked in the end , If you lose it, you will lose it. Of course, some of them have turned out the structure of a bad film into a high-quality film, and Lu Pingan will indeed consider making a film.
The screenwriter's work is done. With a screenwriter team, Xingchen Company is no longer a small company, and artists really have to think about it.

What are artists for?

For the company, it is used to make money.

I build you, you make money for me, it's that simple.

At present, Xingchen Company already has various advertising resources, and these advertising resources are useless except for receiving sponsorship when he is making movies.

If there are artists, there will be a wave of second harvest.

It is a huge profit to sign an advertisement for an artist and collect brokerage fees.

There are no artists now, so it can only be wasted. From this perspective alone, it is necessary to create a few artists.

In addition, the company's TV stations, media, portals and other resources are also good, plus I am a bug-level director, so it is not difficult to create an artist.

However, it takes a little time to set up a brokerage department, and the broker itself is also very important.

Without a strong agent, the artist department is actually a bit of a waste for him.

My own Star Film and Television is still mainly based on production.

Production companies and brokerage companies have a natural conflict of interest.

What I am good at is making movies, and the main thing is to exchange character positions and shares for resources from other companies.

If you want to raise some artists, to be honest, it’s okay if there are plays, but if there are no plays, or if they are not popular, they will turn against each other.

Lu Pingan finally decided that the artist should be left alone.

There is no need.

If you really want an artist, just open your mouth and anyone can come.

So let's wait.

Of course, you can still get in touch with those who have old drama bones and the like.

There is no need to sign, but you can rely on it.

If you have a play appointment, you don’t have to find someone when you are looking for it in the future.

It's a little insurance.

"I'll give you a list later, you can contact me first, and you can take a look at the rest of the artists yourself, and let me know if there are any suitable ones."

"clear."

After Wu Guohua left, Lu Pingan continued to think.

In addition to advertising, media resources.

This time there are actually a lot of TV resources.

With the explosion of "Yuan", Lu Pingan used the opportunity of publicity to gather a lot of contacts.

This is a preparation for future TV series, but right now he has no plans to start a TV series.

But it's not open, but it doesn't mean it can't be used first.

Movies and TV shows are the same, production is one aspect, and distribution is also one aspect.

Now there is a ready-made opportunity in front of him, and Lu Pingan feels that he can use it to practice first.

Soon at night, Lu Ping'an appeared in the "Space-Time Evil" road show group.

"Time and Space Evil" was released on January 1 and has already won 19 million box office.

The total box office during the Spring Festival is relatively gratifying compared with previous years.

After the baptism of the two blockbusters, the audience's viewing habits have changed slightly.

In addition, theaters also know how to market and attract customers better than before, so more people enter the theater.

"Time and Space" is actually not suitable for the holiday atmosphere, but fortunately, there are no other blockbusters in this period, and the audience does not have many choices.

Moreover, the film is said to cost 40 yuan, the director is Lu Pingan, there are only five actors, and the quality is not bad. Everyone's curiosity is actually very strong.

In the end, the ticket price also increased.

So "Spacetime Evil" has such a good result.

A movie with a cost of 40 won 1500 million.

It would be a huge success anywhere.

Let's count all the works of Lu Pingan.

Each one is at least three times the profit.

This kind of record is dismissive to the old antiques in the literary and art circles, and some even scolded that Lu Ping'an had fallen!
But most people are laymen.

So this also makes more investors come here and want to get on board.

The media also named Lu Pingan as the "No. [-] money-absorbing director".

Lu Ping'an is embarrassing, this name is not very nice.
At the road show, watching dozens of reporters, Chen Jinfei was not a little excited, but rather annoyed. He felt that he should have taken the share at that time.

At first, he just thought that Lu Ping'an was famous and the film could win awards, which would be good for Liu Qianqian's mother and daughter, and would also show his meticulousness.

In addition, he himself doesn't know much about the film and television industry.

The most important thing is that he doesn't think this film can make much money.

But now the box office is 1500 million, and the account split is 600 million, which is more than ten times the profit!I don't know how many after the release.

It was just lost.

He felt that he must cast a vote for the movie of Ping An in the next loop.

"Is the road guide here?"

At this time, Dong Xuan arrived at the scene, and she asked Li Bo.

Just as Li Bo was about to answer, the reporters outside cheered up.

Everyone knew that Lu Ping'an had arrived.
