Chen Wei didn't know who the old Luo in Lu An's mouth was, but he could guess that it should be the screenwriter of the TV series that Lu An was going to film, and, listening to this meaning, it seems that something happened to Lao Luo, and it is likely that he is no longer there.

Sure enough, Lin Shuqian explained to him: "Lao Luo is the author of this "Green Mountains Don't Change, Green Water Flows Forever", named Luo Chaohui, and he can be regarded as a little famous, oh yes, the screenwriter of "Hello Youth" is him. We've known him for many years and have a good relationship. Last year, Lao Luo was diagnosed with cancer, he was sick, and created this "Green Mountains Do Not Change, Green Water Flows Forever", and when he was dying, he transferred the copyright of this drama to us free of charge, and asked us to help him shoot this drama, so that he can also smile Jiuquan. ”

Lian Yingying was moved again, and her eyes were a little red again.

Chen Wei just nodded slightly, but he was not as moved as Lian Yingying.

Life and death are fateful, and Chen Wei doesn't know this Luo Chaohui, so naturally it is impossible to be moved casually.

Besides, although what Lin Shuqian said is very touching, who knows how much it is true and how much it is false.

Lin Shuqian, a woman, may have been an actor for a long time, so that Chen Wei always felt that this woman was not very real, as if she had been wearing a mask.

Of course, Chen Wei will not have any rejection or dislike for Lin Shuqian because of this, after all, he and Lin Shuqian have just met, and Lin Shuqian naturally can't be like Lu An, who will come up and dig out his heart and lungs.

In fact, in society, people like Lin Shuqian are common, while people like Lu An are really rare.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Wei has a good impression of Lu An.

"I don't know much about your industry, so I take the liberty of asking, how much does it cost to make such a TV series?"

Chen Wei pondered for a moment and asked.

Lin Shuqian was still hesitating how to answer, after all, she was still not sure, Chen Wei just asked casually out of curiosity, or did he really have this investment intention.

In addition, she still doesn't know Chen Wei's true identity and how much money Chen Wei can come up with.

It's really hard to say about filming TV series, 10 million has 10 million shooting methods, 100 million has 100 million shooting methods, not to mention anything else, just the actor's salary can be 108,000 miles away.

Ordinary actors may get a salary of 1.8 million yuan for a TV series, which is very good.

As for those top domestic actors, they basically start with tens of millions.

Not to mention, the investment in production, publicity, etc.

If Chen Wei just inquired about these out of curiosity, then Lin Shuqian didn't need to say it too carefully, probably just said it.

But if Chen Wei has this intention, then Lin Shuqian has to introduce him well.

Lin Shuqian was hesitating, and Lu An next to him spoke: "I really can't say this, less than a few million, more than hundreds of millions, and even some big foreign productions, the investment is hundreds of millions of dollars." This "Green Mountains Don't Change, Green Water Flows Forever", I plan to make it into 40 episodes, according to the minimum investment of 200,000 yuan per episode, then it will cost 8 million. This can't be lower, and if it's lower, the shot won't be able to be seen at all. Think about it, in an episode of a TV series, just the actors who leave the country, to say the least, there will be more than a dozen. According to the current actor market, even if a newcomer who has just debuted and is not well-known, he will have to pay thousands of yuan for an average episode, and if he has a little strength, even if he is not very famous, the so-called third-tier actor will have a salary of tens of thousands for this episode. Counting the remuneration of other staff, equipment, props, venue rent, post-editing, production, and publicity, etc., these messes add up, 200,000 episodes, it really can't be lower. This is still my wife to play the female number one, otherwise, if you find another female number one, don't even think about 200,000 episodes. I even thought about it, if I really can't attract investment, then I will sell the house, and then let out my old face, find a way to borrow some money, and then I will play the male lead myself, and the announcement of this piece can also be saved, anyway, I must shoot this drama. ”

After hearing this, Chen Wei just nodded slightly, without any clear expression.

The investment of 200,000 episodes, to be honest, is a bit beyond Chen Wei's imagination.

Now it is also breaking out on the Internet at every turn, the salary of a certain actor is tens of millions, and the salary of a certain actor is more than 100 million, Chen Wei still thinks that investing in a TV series will cost tens of millions of dollars, not to mention tens of millions.

Unexpectedly, a minimum of 200,000 yuan can be filmed for one episode, and the total investment of 40 episodes of TV series is less than 10 million.

Moreover, listening to the meaning of Lu An's words, it seems that no matter how little there is before, you can shoot it, but you can't see the things that are filmed.

Chen Wei was a little emotional.

With an investment of only 8 million, it is difficult for Lu An and his family to become like this.

forced Lu An to even shave his hair and beard.

It's not that eight million is less, but in Chen Wei's impression, people like Lu An who mix film and television entertainment are not bad money.

Just shoot an advertisement, go on a variety show, and then you will earn millions.

Especially Lu An is also a relatively famous director in the drama circle, and Lin Shuqian is also a very famous actor, so he shouldn't even be able to get eight million, right?

In fact, this is what Chen Wei doesn't know.

Those who engage in dramas in China really don't make money.

Like Lin Shuqian, she is already a first-class drama actress, and she doesn't have anything to say about her acting skills, but after a year of hard work, her income is only three or five hundred thousand.

It's not as much as those film and television actors who make more money by filming an episode of a TV series.

And Lu An's income is not as high as his wife.

The two of them are the kind of people who are more arrogant, and they don't bother to go out to take on private work such as commercial performances, and occasionally film and television dramas come to them, and the two of them are extremely picky about the script, and they could have found him and the two of them, it is not a good show, and the result is naturally needless to say.

The two of them only rely on the income from the drama, and it is strange that they can save money in a place like Kyoto.

Lu An is almost forty years old, and he just saved enough for a down payment two years ago and bought a small house in Kyoto's Fifth Ring Road.

Eight million is indeed not a small amount for his two families.

Even Yingying asked with a little surprise on the side: "Do you need eight million to make a TV series?"

Lian Yingying's words mean that it only takes eight million to make a TV series, which is too little, and she, like Chen Wei, thinks that a TV series will be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars.

But Lu An and Lin Shuqian misunderstood what Lian Yingying meant, thinking that what Lian Yingying said was that it would cost eight million to shoot a TV series?

Lu An didn't know how to explain for a while, and looked at Chen Wei and Lian Yingying in a daze.

Lin Shuqian's brows furrowed slightly.

Looking at it like this, it seems that in the eyes of this Miss Lian, eight million is not a small amount.

This made Lin Shuqian slightly disappointed.
