Chapter 306: Thoughts
In the entertainment industry, there are no secrets.
People have mouths, and when they speak, they like to add their own understanding and embellishment, and there are very few people who completely paraphrase other people's words, or it is extremely rare.
So every piece of news that goes from one person's mouth to another's ears is something that can be controlled by any way to control what it will become after a few turnovers.
Because people are curious, everyone is eager to share the secrets of others, and through this sharing, they live a certain inner emotional satisfaction.
It's like a flu, where no one can escape.
Therefore, although Zhao Fusheng is not in the entertainment industry, there is already a legend of him in the film and television circle in the capital.
Fortunately, except for a limited number of people, no one knew that the advertising designer named after the fallen angel in English for the future advertisement was the screenwriter of Liu Dehua's latest film "Infernal Affairs".
But even so, Jiang Wen and Wang Zhonglei are actually testing Zhao Fusheng today, because they want to know what Zhao Fusheng is thinking.
"You say, wouldn't he see that we were testing him and deliberately didn't drink the bar?" Wang Zhonglei thought for a while and said to Jiang Wen.
Jiang Wen frowned, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head: "It shouldn't be, I can see that he really doesn't like to drink." ”
Everyone has their own habits, and there is no way to change it.
Judging from Jiang Wen's observations, at least, in his impression, no young man would behave so calmly at Zhao Fusheng's age.
Even Jiang Wen himself can't, he was still stunned when Zhao Fusheng was his age.
"It's strange to say, when Wang Jinghua introduced him to me, I really didn't expect that what he wrote casually would actually attract you. Wang Zhonglei said seriously.
This is what he said in his heart, because originally in his opinion, Zhao Fusheng was just a ticket player who occasionally wrote good works.
But the story of "The Devil is Coming" has been valued by Jiang Wen, who has always been above the top, so it's different.
Although Huayi has just entered this industry for a short time, the Wang brothers have great ambitions, and their goal is the sea of stars...... No, it's the country's premier film company.
Therefore, Huayi has been committed to recruiting domestic first-line directors and stars. Famous directors such as Ma Dajun and Jiang Wen, and the stars under Wang Jinghua, Wang Zhonglei did not lie to Zhao Fusheng in a sentence, if Zhao Fusheng is willing, Huayi is now looking forward to his joining.
The reason is very simple, the current Huayi does not have a good screenwriter.
Many people feel that the most important thing in a drama is the actors and directors, especially the actors, as long as the actors' coffee seats are big enough, their acting skills are good enough, and even there are many fans, they can make a movie with a super high box office. Invite some traffic stars, handsome men and beautiful women, and you can make a movie with hot ratings.
But in fact, this kind of behavior may start with some markets that can blind some people. But if it takes a long time, it will inevitably be spurned by the audience.
No one likes to be a fool!
The most obvious example is the domestic film market around 2015, after experiencing a big box office explosion, the audience changed rapidly. In the past two or three years, the screen dividend has digested a large number of good films and bad movies, but with the destruction of a large number of bad films produced by wrong signals, the audience's revenge has gradually emerged, even if it is a Hollywood blockbuster, in the domestic film market, there will also be a dismal box office.
The real key to a good work lies in the script.
In other words, it's up to the screenwriter.
After all, there are celebrities, and directors can be seen everywhere, but a good script is not so easy to come across. Everyone can make up stories and tell nonsense, but few people can write a script well.
The Wang brothers have suffered this loss before, and the TV series they invested in because there was no good screenwriter, but they couldn't even broadcast it after it was filmed, and the investment of millions was wasted.
So now, for Zhao Fusheng, Wang Zhonglei really has the intention of recruiting him.
"This kid is not so easy to recruit. Jiang Wen was silent for a while, and said to Wang Zhonglei: "People do a good job of advertising, and it is impossible to come to be a screenwriter for these tens of thousands of yuan." ”
Wang Zhonglei smiled bitterly, and the two of them sighed almost at the same time.
That's the crux of the matter!
Nowadays, in the domestic film and television industry, the status of behind-the-scenes staff is too low, for example, the best screenwriter in China, a script is 350,000 yuan, and the rookie screenwriter is even lower, only a few thousand yuan.
This is also why Liu Dehua gave Zhao Fusheng a script fee of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, and everyone was surprised. Even if she gave 200,000 in the end, Yue Yiling felt that it was too much. Because she is very aware of the market of mainland film screenwriters, 50,000 yuan is already the top treatment.
200,000 is simply unheard of.
If it is an ordinary newcomer, maybe Wang Zhonglei throws an olive branch, and the other party will happily accept it, but the problem is that Zhao Fusheng is not a person in the film circle at all, he is an advertisement.
He also came out of the advertising industry, and Wang Zhonglei certainly knows that a good advertising designer can earn a lot more than a screenwriter.
For example, if Zhao Fusheng plans an advertisement that can increase the sales of merchants' products, he can get more bonuses and other remuneration than a movie or TV series.
In such a situation, a fool would be a thankless screenwriter.
"Take a look, give him 50,000 yuan for the screenwriter's fee this time, at least make a good relationship, I think, we will definitely meet again in the future. Wang Zhonglei finally smiled and said to Jiang Wen.
Zhao Fusheng naturally didn't know that he had become the target of attention in the hearts of the two entertainment industry bigwigs.
He just felt that today's meal was a bit inexplicable based on his life experience and experience, so he was more cautious.
And Zhao Fusheng really didn't think about the idea of developing in the direction of screenwriters.
With this bit of ink in his head, it's okay to make an occasional cameo to change his pocket money, if he really enters this industry, he has to think about creating scripts every day, and he has to face the more and more developed media in the future at any time, Zhao Fusheng feels that he should wash and sleep.
Everyone has what they are good at and what they are not good at, he knows very well what he is good at, and he knows even more that in a place like the entertainment industry, only capitalists are the real masters.
"Why did you come back?"
When he got home, Zhao Fusheng found that Fan Baobao hadn't slept, and when he saw him enter the door, the girl asked Zhao Fusheng while rubbing her eyes.
Zhao Fusheng smiled: "I drank a few more drinks with my friends, why haven't you slept yet?"
After a pause, he smiled and said, "You can't be waiting for me, right?"
"Hehe, you're beautiful, I'm watching a TV series. Fan Baobao angrily returned to him what Zhao Fusheng had said to him, stood up by himself, and walked in the direction of the bedroom.
"Look at you, this guy doesn't have any sense of humor. Zhao Fusheng said with a smile, but he didn't stop Fan Baobao, walked to the sofa and picked up the remote control, and turned off the TV.
This girl is always hard-mouthed, obviously she hasn't slept and is waiting for her to come back, but she makes excuses to watch TV series.
Back in the room, Zhao Fusheng fell asleep directly, although he hadn't drunk much, he was really tired in the past two days.
