Why in the first decade of the century, major entertainment companies are striving for the joining of various film and television directors?

Even at the expense of money?

Herein lies the reason.

Time has entered the second decade of the millennium, and the impetus that an excellent film and television director has brought to entertainment companies is undoubtedly huge.

Even many companies do not hesitate to cut meat for this!

So hasn't the light ever dug people?

Yes.

Even many times.

However, it is a pity that from the beginning to the end, no outstanding director is willing to join the light.

There are many reasons, but in the final analysis, the focus of the development of light is not on the production of film and television dramas.

This is also the reason why many directors and actors are reluctant to come to the light.

Everyone knows that the distribution of film and television dramas is a very risky thing.

It is true that this can save the greatest cost, as long as you encounter a work that becomes a hit, then it will bring a lot of profit.

But the problem is that once there is a fault in the middle, and none of the multiple released works is outstanding, then it will inevitably lead to damage to the company's reputation, which will lead to problems in the capital chain!

The fact that the light is a listed company is also becoming more and more serious.

"I'll tell you the truth, something has gone wrong with the company lately. Li Xiaoping hesitated for a moment and said seriously.

Peng Hui was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect that Li Xiaoping would confess to him.

But then, Peng Hui asked curiously, "Can you say it conveniently?"

"As you know, our company doesn't have an artist or director who can really do it, so in some aspects, it is inevitable that we will fall behind. ”

Peng Hui thought for a moment and expressed understanding.

The entertainment industry at home and abroad is different.

Hollywood is a producer-centric system.

In other words, except for a few big directors, the producer is the boss.

But......

Huaxia is a director-centered system!

In other words, the entire crew must obey the director's arrangement!

Why did Peng Hui give up his acting profession and learn to be a director from scratch?

That's why.

In the crew, the director is the biggest!

Even in the whole project, the role of the director is infinitely magnified.

And any good director means a resource library!

Unfortunately, Guangguang does not have such an excellent director as the foundation, and there is no artist who can play the game.

This also leads to a vicious circle, and the light can only helplessly sprout on its own.

In fact, unless there is a special reason, light is rarely able to receive the resources of top directors.

This has also led to the fact that many well-known artists will not be willing to come over at all.

And because there are no well-known artists to support the scene, well-known directors will not be willing to come over and develop from scratch.

So, the light has always been very awkward.

Seeing Peng Hui nodded, Li Xiaoping said lightly: "After seeing your works, I have a crazy idea, I want to make you popular, whether it is a director or an actor, you can." ”

Peng Hui understood.

"But why did the company ask me to be a singer?" Peng Hui was a little curious.

"At the moment, your talent in acting is ...... I can't say less, but it's definitely not as talented as you in terms of singers, but it's better than your talent in directing, you know that, right?" asked Li Xiaoping.

Peng Hui nodded.

He knows his own problems.

In terms of talent, he is singing> acting skills > directing skills.

In terms of love, acting is also greater than the other two.

After all, the director is just a reason to be able to act with peace of mind.

Therefore, Peng Hui was not surprised or uncomfortable with Li Xiaoping's words.

"Since I want to be popular with you, I naturally hope that you can be popular as the standard, obviously, in today's entertainment industry, it is very fast to become popular as a singer. ”

"But not for long. Peng Hui said seriously: "Being a singer, with the current environment, is a great loss, even if I am popular, with my character, I don't want to participate in trips or variety shows casually, so I'm afraid that popularity will come and go quickly." ”

"So at the beginning, the company only signed an actor contract with you, but now, I hope you can sign a singer contract and a director contract with the company. ”

"Oh?" Peng Hui asked for a long time: "Didn't Sister Xiaoping say that my talent in directing is very poor?"

"Do you have any misunderstanding about the difference?" Li Xiaoping asked speechlessly: "What I said is that your talent as a director is not as good as the other two, but I didn't say that your talent as a director is poor." ”

Peng Hui smiled but said nothing.

"It's easy to talk about the treatment or anything, I just want to know, ...... your next work"

"I can sign a contract with the company, but ...... If the company signs me, how much budget can it give me? I do have a notebook in my hand, but this budget definitely needs a lot. ”

"How much do you want?"

"At least more than 100 million. Peng Hui said seriously.

"This ......" Li Xiaoping hesitated for a moment, and then said seriously: "If it is a budget of more than 100 million, I can't directly promise you." ”

Peng Hui nodded, not surprised.

Although Li Xiaoping is very optimistic about Peng Hui, in business, before "Puppet Man" does not show its potential at the box office, it is impossible for the company to agree to give him a newcomer to invest more than 100 million yuan.

"But you don't have to worry. Li Xiaoping said with a smile: "The company has a project recently, if you can shoot it well, I can make a decision directly and make a budget for your next movie!"

Peng Hui thought for a moment and asked curiously, "Can you tell me what movie it is?"

"It's an IP movie. Li Xiaoping said helplessly: "It's writer Qingshan's "July and Ansheng". ”

"Eh?" Peng Hui was stunned for a moment, and asked a little incredulously: "Didn't this drama officially announce that it was going to start filming a long time ago?" I remember when I played "Soul Ferry". ”

"It was indeed officially announced. Li Xiaoping said helplessly: "The problem lies with the previous director. ”

"The previous director?" Peng Hui was stunned for a moment, and asked with some curiosity: "Who is it?"

"His name is Zeng Guoyang. ”

"Who?" Peng Hui was a little confused.

"You must know his father......" Li Xiaoping said with a smile.

Peng Hui was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

Originally, there was no idea about light.

After all, this drama was originally just a joint work of Ali, Geek, and Jiaying, but now, after "The Puppet Weng", Li Xiaoping immediately made a decision, contacted Ali directly, and recommended Peng Hui.
