Chapter 696: Four-Party Contract (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

On Tuesday, March 5th, it is advisable to worship.

The signing of the Quartet of Pakistani Media was chosen on this day, but it is really not an auspicious day for the zodiac.

Zhang Dongdong was a little superstitious, and before signing the contract, he pulled Chu Yuanxi and said: "Mr. Chu, it is not appropriate to open today, otherwise how about we change the day?"

"Isn't this that you are in a hurry and have to organize people to come to the imperial capital? So many people are coming, you say slow down first?" Chu Yuanxi was almost angry, but there was really nothing good today, first of all, a Taishan Beidou-level bigwig in the business world of the Celestial Empire passed away, and this person was President Chu of Southern Yunnan.

Mr. Chu used to be a well-deserved business leader, a legend of legends, if he didn't enter it at the turn of the century, Mr. Liu might not be able to be the leader of this business world, the development of Meiliang enterprises, and even the later Internet tide, and even the mobile Internet tide, in the context of the Celestial Empire will undergo great changes.

This is still the case that Mr. Chu's field is not related to IT, he doesn't do this, but he will be this person. There are countless entrepreneurs within the Celestial Empire who have been promoted or supported by President Chu. This is also the reason why some kind of oranges were sold more expensive and faster later.

This matter has nothing to do with Chu Yuanxi, after all, the generation difference is too far, but at the same time, one thing happened that has a little to do with it, Gongsun Yonghao's bullet text message officially died today, and the team was disbanded.

Born of injustice and disgraced, this project survived from mid-January to early March, which lasted 50 days, which is not easy. It's just that the later it is, the more undisciplined it is, known as burning money to pull users, and the threshold has been raised from 1 yuan to 100 yuan, so it withdrew from the public eye early, and it was not until the day of the last breath that it reappeared in the news and search.

So this day is really not a good day.

Soon the people from all over the world gathered together, in fact, they were all from the previous wave, Shanying Wei Ning, Youtu Guan Xin, as well as Zhang Dongdong and Chu Yuanxi. After Wei Ning sat down, he didn't take the contract, but said directly: "Mr. Chu, do you know the situation in the first half of the year? I have a suggestion now, "Out of the Mountain in Troubled Times" has to be made into a drama. ”

"What's the situation?" Chu Yuanxi has been busy working well-off, and he really doesn't understand.

Guan Xin took over the words: "The situation of costume dramas." Haven't you heard of the limited ancient order in the first half of the year?"

This should be that they have reached a consensus? Chu Yuanxi glanced at Zhang Dongdong, Zhang Dongdong didn't say anything, that is, she also agreed.

"If the first half of the year is limited to the ancient order, we will have to start the production in the second half of the year at the earliest, right? It will be completed next year, and it won't be limited to the ancient order when it is released, right? Is it forever limited? Now there is not even a script, how can it take half a year to polish the script?"

"That's not necessary, two months out of the script, five months of shooting, shoot and cut with the post-production, and then use another month to produce the finished film, if you sign the contract now, it should be completed before November, both sides of our network station are internal processes, and the time is predetermined, if there is no major change, the online schedule will not take a month, and it will be on at the end of the year. "Wei Ning is very familiar with the whole process, except for the relatively short time of the script, everything else is normal.

Of course, this time plan is still relatively short, mainly because the protagonists are not super big names, they can concentrate on filming with the group, and martial arts films are not as many as in the later stage of Xianxia films, so they can be so fast. If you are like the Angolan baby who doesn't appreciate himself when he shoots cutouts, he will definitely be killed while filming.

Chu Yuanxi looked at Zhang Dongdong again, but she still didn't speak, so she had to say to herself: "Is it too late to publish the script in two months?"

Zhang Dongdong finally spoke: "If it's a drama, it's easier to make up, it's no problem for two months." Moreover, the ancient order is not limited to the main drama, and it is mainly limited to the fantasy fairy and the horse to make up a big drama. This ancient restriction order is said to be the first half of the year, but it also has to be extended. ”

Chu Yuanxi felt that this logic was a bit wrong, and changed it to a drama in order to shorten the time for grinding the script, but why did he shorten the time for grinding the script? Isn't it good to shoot casually if the time is extended?

The so-called drama, the original meaning is different from the two artistic logics of tragedy and comedy, but now it is a serious drama and a serious drama, and there can be no gods, ghosts, demons, foxes, feudal superstitions, nor can there be things that are obviously made up, such as the magic hand and the needle to get rid of the disease, which is beyond the audience's normal world view, then it is not a drama.

For example, the book "Emperor Yongzheng" itself has supernatural abilities, but when "Yongzheng Dynasty" was filmed, all the relevant content was cut, so it was made into a drama.

"Out of the Mountain in Troubled Times" is similar, there are some Taoist techniques in it, but there are very few in the first place, and it exists as the goldfinger hole card of the protagonist of the comic, so it won't lose too much color if it is cut off. But the problem is that cutting this part of the content has nothing to do with whether it is good or not, and it is impossible for the drama to become easy to write.

The script of this show is groundbreaking, requiring the screenwriter to be familiar with the comics and have a deep understanding of each character, and then the game data is extracted, the characters are sorted, and the computer program gives "casting" suggestions, extracting a number of popular characters from the library of plot characters and then completing the screenwriting work according to the main line.

First of all, the requirements for the ability of screenwriters are particularly high, of course, this aspect can still be found, after all, historical dramas are a major category in film and television dramas, and there are countless capable screenwriters. The second is time.

The screenwriting gameplay of "Out of the Troubled Times" is not only different from adapting according to IP content, but also different from the screenwriter's pure originality, the content must be based on IP content, but the plot and characters are very flexible. Taking the time to do it well can be very awesome, and it is impossible to hope for shoddy work.

Therefore, Chu Yuanxi still wanted to fight for it again: "I still think that two months is too short? Let's spend more time on the script, just waiting for the ancient order to pass completely, isn't it?"

Guan Xin said in a deep voice: "In fact, you are too worried about time, I have already communicated with the screenwriter when I was looking for a screenwriter, and the entire screenwriter team will follow the group, not only the lowest screenwriter." So there is no need to separate the script time and the shooting time, the screenwriter can work the same during filming, so the total duration is actually not short, just publish a version of the script in two months for application and review, and now even the script is a two-review system, which needs to be flexible. ”

Wei Ning immediately followed: "Yes, and what are we worried about, do you know Mr. Chu? What we are afraid of is that when we wait until next year, the ancient restrictions will not be relaxed, and they will be stricter, and we will not even be allowed to shoot the main drama." You can't just think about things going in a good direction, the tone of state control ideology is getting higher and higher, and there is gossip that there will be 'anti-entertainment' to deal with the current situation of excessive entertainment in many media units. We were injured by mistake, but we can't help it. ”
