At 11:45 a.m., Chen Changshan announced the end of the meeting.

Fang Weimin and Mo Dashan, who were not in the mood to have lunch, hurriedly said hello to a few good colleagues, and went directly to Mo Dashan's office to discuss how this meeting would affect the production center.

In fact, there is no need for any so-called consultation.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after the end of this meeting, the already declining production center will inevitably enter the fast lane of rapid decay.

Perhaps in the near future, the Dongshan TV Production Center, which was a smash hit and could compete with CCTV, will completely withdraw from the stage of history.

And what Mo Dashan and Fang Weimin can do now is to slow down the decay of the production center as much as possible.

And during this period, we worked hard to find a "panacea" that could save the golden signboard that Dongshantai was once proud of.

Mo Dashan Office

"For the people, you give me a thorough explanation, and now there are still a few decks of cards in the center's hand. ”

Deputy Director Mo's square face was solemn, and he looked at Fang Weimin, who was sitting on the sofa in the office with his head down, and asked.

Director Fang rubbed his brows, barely supported his spirit and replied: "Mo Tai, you also know that the center is in a difficult situation this year, and I am afraid that Wang Xia and them will catch the handle if the new drama does not do well, so I deliberately stuck it very strictly in the new drama filming project."

So far, the center has not broadcast any TV series, and there are only four in total. ”

"Only four?"

Mo Dashan was a little dissatisfied with the scarcity of self-made dramas, but he could also understand Fang Weimin's concerns, so he didn't pay attention to the number of self-made dramas, but just continued in a deep voice.

"Tell me what's going on with these four dramas. ”

Fang Weimin nodded, and crossed his fingers to introduce Mo Dashan one by one: "The anti-Japanese war drama "Long Song of Fire" filmed by Zhou Huaidao, the old director of our center, is now in the scheduling period and will be ready to be broadcast immediately.

Cui Hua's rural inspirational drama "Harvest" has almost completed post-production and is about to start the promotion schedule.

There are also two semi-finished films, directed by Chu Xiaoyuan's emotional drama "Kind Little Grass", and the sitcom "Underground Traffic Station" written and directed by Zuo Le, a newcomer director of our center.

"Kind Grass" is already being filmed, and the progress is just over halfway through, and it is expected to be broadcast before the year

The crew of "Underground Transportation Station" has just completed the preparations, and is ready to officially start shooting in Changqing in early September. ”

After Mo Dashan listened to Fang Weimin's words, he did not rush to express his position, but asked with some expectation.

"Which of these four dramas do you think has the best prospects, and can it be a hit drama with big ratings?

Or it's okay to applaud the high-quality products that are not popular, with word of mouth, let's try to operate the Golden Phoenix Award (the highest TV drama award in China), whether you win the award or not, as long as you have a nomination, I can fight for more resources for you from the director. ”

When Fang Weimin heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face: "Mo Tai, I probably understand your thoughts, but it's not that I am arrogant for the people, and I really don't dare to amplify my words in front of you."

You are also an expert, and you should understand that the number of popular dramas and high-quality dramas produced in the country every year is limited, and sometimes the total number of major TV stations and film and television companies does not exceed ten.

Judging from the average investment scale of our center's self-made dramas not exceeding 20 million, the probability of being small and big is too low. ”

may be afraid that Mo Dashan will be too disappointed in the production center, so Fang Weimin followed up and comforted him.

"But don't worry, after my strict control, the quality of these four dramas in the center is still guaranteed.

Especially Chu Xiaoyuan's "Kind Little Grass", I am very optimistic, Zuo Le's "Underground Transportation Station" is also very good from the script, and the actors are also very successful, if the shooting quality can keep up, there should be a chance to make a small hit. ”

............

When Fang Weimin said this, he was actually a little empty in his heart.

But in order to let Mo Dashan continue to maintain hope in the production center and support it, he could only exaggerate the preset prospects of the two dramas in front of Mo Dashan with a clear conscience.

Sure enough, Director Fangda's "professional vision" still has some weight in Mo Dashan's heart.

Deputy Director Mo's frowning brows eased a little, and he also mentioned "Underground Transportation Station" with great interest.

"I know that I personally approved the script of this drama, and I originally wanted to find an old comrade to shoot it, but seeing that you were more supportive of that Zuo Le, and asked him to join the "New Power" plan, I didn't insist on it.

Since you are quite optimistic about this drama, you must not be stingy with resources, and usually take more care of it, now the central situation is not what it used to be, we must seize all the opportunities we can seize to get rid of the difficult predicament. ”

Director Fang nodded solemnly: "Mo Tai rest assured, I personally grasped these two dramas at the moment, and even played a role in "Underground Transportation Station", and I will try my best to keep the brand of our center." ”

Mo Dashan was very pleased, and patted Fang Weimin on the shoulder: "Do a good job, if the finished TV series is guaranteed, I will give up this old face and fight for a prime time for you." ”

The generous promise of the deputy director made Fang Weimin feel guilty and rekindled his fighting spirit.

People die in the sky, and they don't die for thousands of years!

He still doesn't believe it, he can't fight Wang Xia's girl, no matter what, the production center can't be smashed on his hands.

Fang Weimin's handsome and heroic face flashed with determination, and when he came out of Mo Dashan's office, he took the elevator back to his office on the tenth floor, and called Zuo Le and Chen Fatzi on a phone call.

"I'll add another 4 million to the capital budget, and I'll stop all the means of buckling and shackling, I just want quality. ”

As soon as they entered the door, Chen Fatzi and Zuo Le, who were stunned by Fang Weimin's words, glanced at each other and exchanged information.

[What's wrong with Lao Fang?]

[Took the wrong medicine, right?]

[I think it's eighty percent of the evil]

[No, didn't he go to a meeting, he should have been stimulated at the meeting]

The two of them squeezed their eyebrows and made eyes, but the joy on their faces couldn't be stopped.

The initial capital budget of "Underground Transportation Station" was only 6 million, and after signing the contract with Wu Yue, Chen Fatzi used this as an excuse to grind another 2 million.

Now Fang Weimin took the initiative to add another 4 million to them, and the filming funds of "Underground Transportation Station" reached as much as 12 million, which was directly doubled compared with the beginning.

Regardless of why Fang Weimin increased the budget for "Underground Transportation Station".

For Zuo Le and the others, they don't think that they will burn too much money, and they wish that the more funds they have, the better.

However, Lao Fang's 4 million is not easy to take, and he wants Zuo Le to be on the premise of quality and quantity.

To complete the filming of the TV series in three months, and to complete the post-production in one month, the Spring Festival file in 16 years must have the figure of "Underground Transportation Station".

Looking at Fang Weimin, who was more serious than before and could not be refuted, Zuo Le vaguely understood, he thought about it in his heart, and gritted his teeth.

"If you promise to add another 3 million to the budget, I will dare to make this military order. ”

Fang Weimin snorted coldly: "You kid is quite greedy, but make a sitcom and give you 15 million, can you use it up." ”

"If I don't need it, I'll smash the propaganda and throw millions of dollars, the effect is better than those masters of the Propaganda Department who casually send two scarves. ”

Zuo Le smiled, as if he was sure that Fang Weimin would definitely agree, too, 12 million had been paid, and he still cared about adding 3 million.

Sure enough, Fang Weimin nodded and agreed to Zuo Le's conditions, but at the same time, he said with a warning.

"If you spend a little leisurely, I will approve the 15 million, and there will be no more points, if you kid spends money, sell the car and the roof by yourself, don't ask me.

Also, I gave the money, and this military order will take effect immediately, if you don't do it, Zuo Le, don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings for the people. ”

Zuo Le stood up with his feet straight, and gave Fang Weimin a salute with a "snap": "The leader can rest assured that the task will be completed." ”
