429. Old Fan
Want a slice of the sitcom pie.
First and foremost, there is a director who is good at making sitcoms.
In this regard, Shang Jin is definitely at the Dana level, and Zhou Fangyuan has no reason to let him go. However, Cao Yan is not ready to sign a contract with Shang Jin, not to say whether the other party is willing or not, and the profession of director is not the same as that of an actor, it is good to be able to sign a famous director, but Shang Jin's situation is relatively special, and to be honest, it is not easy to sign, so Zhou Fangyuan did not force it.
Then there are actors, there are not many actors with good acting skills and are suitable for comedy, in order to meet their own shooting requirements, Sha Yi has become the target of Zhou Fangyuan's strategy. And not only Sha Yi, but several other people are also in Zhou Fangyuan's plan.
In the end, he is a good screenwriter, although Zhou Fangyuan is far from being unable to come up with a script, but it is impossible for him to put all his energy on writing a script, in the final analysis, he still needs a professional screenwriter. This screenwriter, he has already thought about it, is the original screenwriter of Wulin Gaiden, the famous God of Wealth. This person is now well-known in the circle, but it can only be regarded as a small take, if Zhou Fangyuan makes a move, it is still very simple to sign him. But Zhou Fangyuan has no such plan in his heart, for two reasons, one is that the screenwriter and the director are almost the same, they are all relatively special, if there is a drama, you can directly find them, or buy the script directly, they are different from the actors. Actors eat with their acting skills, and they don't need much inspiration, it can be said that as long as there is a script, they take it, as long as the performance is not abnormal, the final shooting effect will not be too bad. But directors, especially screenwriters, are very inspired, and without good inspiration, a screenwriter may not be able to write a good work for several years or even more than ten years.
Zhou Fangyuan doesn't know how to raise idlers, so although a profession like a screenwriter is very, very important in the filming of film and television dramas, it can be regarded as the foundation of the foundation, but Zhou Fangyuan still has no idea of signing the God of Wealth. Not only the God of Wealth, but also other screenwriters, even if the other party is skilled, he will only buy the script with the other party, instead of signing the screenwriter stupidly.
The second reason is more personal, this God of Wealth, before Zhou Fangyuan was reborn, he was arrested for an accident. I won't say what the specific reason is, there is news on the Internet, in short, although this person is very talented, but it is a time bomb, maybe it will explode at any time, Zhou Fangyuan doesn't want to wait for the other party to be reported by the Chaoyang masses before wiping his ass, it's nothing to do, so even if the other party is talented, he is not ready to sign a contract with the other party.
After all, the domestic system is still different from the system of the United States, and Zhou Fangyuan doesn't need to raise a group of screenwriters to write scripts for him, scripts or something, he has too many scripts in his head, when he needs to use it, he can find a suitable screenwriter to help him improve it, at least at this stage, he plans to do so, and when the prophetic ability is about to expire in the future, it is not too late to tap talents in this area and then raise a group of screenwriters.
So for now, let's not think about this issue for the time being.
If you are an actor, you still have to sign it quickly.
Directors and screenwriters need a flash of inspiration and inspiration, and the requirements for actors in this regard are lower, so actors with good acting skills, or actors who are famous, often have a lot of scripts waiting for them to choose, and the schedules of these actors are often very full, so it is very important to sign actors directly. What's more, Zhou Fangyuan has the intention to let these powerful but not very profitable actors make some money, if these actors are signed into his own company, he can rest assured that he can boldly support them. If you become popular, you don't have to worry about these celebrities running away, and you can make a lot of money from them...... Sha Yi was the first, but definitely not the last.
......
When Lao Fan finished the day's shooting and was about to leave, Zhou Fangyuan appeared in front of him.
"Mr. Zhou, you ......"
"Old Fan, can you talk?"
"Well, you can ......"
"You haven't eaten yet, do you, I know a good place, let's sit?"
"Uh, okay, sit down ......"
Lao Fan nodded, and while feeling puzzled in his heart, he began to worry about his wallet. He knew that he could have the opportunity to participate in this TV series, it was the opportunity given to him by the young man in front of him, the two had a lot of age differences, but he still respected each other very much, not only because Zhou Fangyuan was rich, but more importantly, Zhou Fangyuan gave him this opportunity, so he actually wanted to invite Zhou Fangyuan to a meal to express his gratitude.
It's a pity that he hasn't had this opportunity, so he can only wait quietly.
Now that the opportunity has finally come, he is worried that the money on him may not be enough to invite the other party to dinner. is a big boss, he must eat lobster and abalone all day long, and he is a poor actor, where is there so much money to invite each other to dinner. The income from filming dramas has long been beaten back by him, and now he only has a few hundred yuan on him, he began to wonder, is he trying to find a way to borrow some from others?
It's a pity that Zhou Fangyuan didn't give him this opportunity, so he took him directly to the car, and then the two drove to a small restaurant that looked very good.
Although the door face is not large and the area is not large, the decoration inside is very elegant, and you can tell at a glance that it is quite a high-end place.
Entering the restaurant, under the guidance of the waiter, the two sat down at a table, Zhou Fangyuan picked up the menu, ordered a few dishes, and then handed the menu to Lao Fan.
Lao Fan looked down and was frightened by the price above, an ordinary cold dish is actually dozens of better, ordinary hot dishes are almost hundreds, and those better dishes, any one is two or three hundred or even higher, his brain is completely messed up, and the hundreds of dollars on his body, I am afraid that he will not be able to eat anything here.
Looking at the few dishes that Zhou Fangyuan had already ordered, he found that the money on his body was no longer enough, this discovery made Lao Fan very helpless, and he didn't dare to order anything more.
The waiter took the menu and left, and Lao Fan sat opposite Zhou Fangyuan, obviously a little absent-minded.
Zhou Fangyuan saw it, and he didn't expect why Lao Fan was absent-minded, and he didn't want to think about it, but directly picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Lao Fan.
Lao Fan reacted at this time, and hurriedly reached out to take the teapot.
"Okay, Lao Fan, don't be polite to me, now that I'm not in the crew, you just treat me as an ordinary friend. ”
Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile.
But Lao Fan on the other side didn't dare to think so, just playing, the other side was the big boss of the crew, how rough his nerves were to treat the other party as an ordinary friend.
"Lao Fan, I called you today, I don't mean anything else, first of all, I want to ask you, how are you feeling about filming recently, do you feel very tired?"
"Ah, tired, no, I'm not tired, Mr. Zhou, you are serious, compared with others, those of us who are actors, the work is already much easier, I wish I had more work, how can I feel tired." ”
Lao Fan hurriedly replied.
"Well, I know," Zhou Fangyuan nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "The second purpose of my coming to you today is to ask you, are you willing to sign a contract with Yuanfang Media?"
“......”
Fan Ming looked at Zhou Fangyuan with wide eyes, with a stunned expression on his face, but he didn't react at first glance.
"What's wrong?
Zhou Fangyuan said with a deliberate smile.
"No, it's not, Mr. Zhou, you, what did you just say?"
"I ask you, would you like to sign a contract with my distant media? Yuanfang Media has a big plan for the future, we need a lot of professionals, if you pay a little attention to the recent movements of Yuanfang Media, it should not be difficult to see that we are recruiting, the next few years, is Yuanfang Media is ready to show its strength in the next few years, and in terms of film and television dramas, I am ready to do something in sitcoms, and Lao Fan, your image and interpretation style are the types I admire, but I am worried that your schedule cannot be guaranteed, so I want to ask, are you willing to sign a contract with Yuanfang Media?"
"Huh?" Old Fan's eyes widened in surprise, "I, of course I would like to, but I'm a soldier......"
"If you're willing to leave the military, I can help you figure out how to make sure you don't leave a stain on your resume. ”
"But, I, I still want to stay in the army......"
Lao Fan said with some embarrassment.
Of course, he knew how beneficial it was to sign a contract with Far Media, but he was reluctant to let him leave the army, which made him very difficult.
"Lao Fan, don't be too ugly for me to say a word, you want to continue to stay in the army, this is good, the army also needs talents like you, but you also have to think about your family, my company is now going to develop greatly, and needs a lot of special talents, you are one of them, if you are willing to join the distant media, all kinds of treatment can definitely be guaranteed, and the annual income can be expected. Today I invited Xiaosha, and Xiaosha agreed to my invitation, I see that you were chatting with him before, and you should already know about it. You can rest assured, our Yuanfang Group is very powerful, Yuanfang Media is just a branch, you don't have to worry about Yuanfang Media will go out of business or withdraw from the market in the future, as long as Yuanfang Group is still there, I will continue to promote Yuanfang Media to continue to move forward. Now that Yuanfang Media has just been established, you are the veteran of the company when you join now. I think you should be able to understand the benefits of this title, so I hope you will think about it before you decide. ”
Zhou Fangyuan said softly.
Lao Fan on the other side fell into deep thought, while Zhou Fangyuan looked at Lao Fan with a smile on his face, and began to meet Lao Fan's specific information in his heart.
