"The current estimate is 80 million. ”

Luo Yiming said an approximate number, he said: "This is still expected, but it is estimated that there is a great possibility that the filming will exceed the funds." ”

The investment in "Langya Bang" has exceeded 100 million, although part of the reason is the salary of the actors, but the filming and production of this drama is not low.

Otherwise, why do many people blow the noon sun on their conscience?

Everyone is not stupid.

The production cost of "Langya Bang" is as high as 110 million, but after seeing the excellent production of the crew, I believe many people feel that the money is actually spent less.

Speaking of which, Luo Yiming had already thought about it.

This time, he wants to shoot "Langya Bang" with the original cast of "Charlotte's Troubles", on the one hand, for publicity, and on the other hand, it is actually to save money.

But no matter how much money is saved, the production cost of this "Langya Bang" cannot be low.

The investment in the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" was 20 million, but in the end it was overspent.

As for the drama "Langya Bang", Luo Yiming feels that it is possible that the final production cost is hundreds of millions.

So the question is, how many episodes are there in such a drama, and how can the cost be recovered?

These are all things that need to be taken into account.

An investment of 80 million yuan, in order to share the risk, one party will be pulled to follow the investment, after all, the money is not easy to make, and no one dares to put eggs in a basket.

It's like a quote from an expert in the industry. Film and television are risky, and investment needs to be cautious.

Otherwise, there will be no actors who will own shares in TV series or movies, and producers often like to pull some people to share the risk.

However, others will be afraid of failure, but Luo Yiming will not.

"This drama, I don't plan to play with others, the investment is all taken care of by Shangteng Entertainment, what I need is your professional shooting of costume dramas. ”

Wen Fatzi and Zhao Xiang knew Luo Yiming's character, and the things he decided often couldn't be changed.

However, when filming costume dramas, they really didn't have confidence, and the two automatically set their sights on Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng said: "I have filmed costume dramas and know more about them, but I believe that the difficulty of such a drama is greater than the costume dramas I filmed before." ”

"Because this is not a court drama that I directed, it is mainly a battle between the harem women, and this drama has a lot of grand war scenes, which needs to be very grandiose production. ”

"I love the script, though. In the end, Zhang Feng's love for this script made him have a firm gaze in his eyes.

Of course, Luo Yiming is also full of confidence in the script.

Mei Changsu, the male protagonist of "Langya Bang", will not talk about it, a very likable character.

And the heroine is the lord of Nihuang County, the setting of this is Mei Changsu's childhood sweetheart's fiancée, and the friend of King Jing Xiao Jingyan.

At the beginning, her father died on the battlefield, and she was ordered to fight in the bloody battle of Chu in the Qingyin Pass, annihilating 30,000 enemies, and guarding the south from then on.

In the end, she finally stayed with Nie Duo, the former general of the Red Flame Army who relieved the crisis of the water war.

From the reader's point of view, it is unbearable for any heroine and other people to be together.

No matter how reasonable it is, the plot of sending off the girl is dissatisfying.

Therefore, Luo Yiming felt that the adaptation of the TV series was very good, and directly cut off the line of marrying Nie Duo, and Luo Yiming felt that Liu Tao's sister's acting skills were really popular, which was a lot of pluses.

The Nihuang County Lord is a very challenging character, and Luo Yiming has decided to play Chen Qiaoyan.

But the role of Mei Changsu also requires very strong acting skills, and Luo Yiming is still not sure that he can play it well at this time.

Zhang Feng knew that Luo Yiming was in a state of anxiety because of the actor's affairs some time ago, since he wanted to direct this drama with Luo Yiming, after the script was fine, he had to start with the actors, he said to Luo Yiming: "Director Luo, there is no problem with the script now, are we going to prepare the crew next?"

"Yes. ”

Luo Yiming said: "I have arranged candidates for important roles, but the male protagonist has not yet been decided, you can actually recommend suitable candidates."

Zhang Feng said with a smile: "Director Luo, don't worry, I will contact some people who are suitable for the role of Mei Changsu, and I will definitely be the assistant director." ”

"It's not a vice, you should remove the word 'vice'. ”

"Huh?" Luo Yiming's words confused Zhang Feng.

Remove the word 'vice'?

After chattering twice, Zhang Feng raised his head sharply and said in disbelief: "Director Luo, you, what do you mean this drama makes me a good ...... To be a director??"

Zhang Feng couldn't believe it!

Luo Yiming said: "Yes, in fact, your ability to direct costume dramas must be stronger than mine, this TV series, I am your assistant, and I am the assistant director." For the rest of the director's stuff, you're primarily responsible. ”

Luo Yiming said it to Zhang Feng heavily. Zhang Feng couldn't digest it for a long time.

An assistant director who doesn't want to be a director is not a good director.

But not everyone can be a director.

Either you have the strength and qualifications, like the current famous directors in the TV drama circle, they even have a little share in the three major films and televisions, which is a win-win situation.

Either you are famous, this fame refers to appeal, I don't believe you can understand if you look at how many people in another time and space are directors.

Sometimes, it doesn't matter if you know what you know or don't do.

This is true in any industry......

As long as you are famous, as long as you have prestige, then it doesn't matter so much whether you know how to do it or not.

But if there is nothing, then you can only suffer.

In the director's industry, it is also very cruel, and many assistant directors often do all kinds of work, all kinds of burdens, and blame.

But sometimes you don't even have the right to authorship, and you even have to be blamed, and you may get out of the house at any time.

Zhang Feng has experienced all of these, he actually directed well at the beginning, and his future is limitless.

Just because after arriving at Hairun Film and Television, he was calculated by the company's people, and as a result, he directed and filmed a drama, and then hit the street.

Speaking of the key to hitting the street, Zhang Feng was very helpless, that is, the actor of this drama was exposed to drug use on the second day of the show, and the heroine was revealed to be a junior and a villain.

In a matter of chicken feathers, Zhang Feng is not able to turn the tide at all, and the people in the company chew the root of the tongue, so he can only roll up the cover and slip away.

Later, Zhang Feng signed a contract with a media company, and as a result, the second urban drama he was not good at was filmed, and then his sister hit the street.

The street fighting of the two works made Zhang Feng almost confused, and he was really called a crazy director in the circle.

Everyone knows the later story, Zhang Feng came to Shangteng.

Zhang Feng was very excited when he remembered the past, and Luo Yiming said comfortingly: "The dramas you filmed before were all bad opportunities, and it can't be said that it is your problem, compared to the fat man and Zhao Xiang, they have no experience in costume dramas, I appreciate you very much." ”

"I've always hoped that if you have the chance, you can direct a drama yourself, and now it's the right time. ”

"Let it go, I'm the back-up. ”

After listening to Director Luo's words, Zhang Feng's heart was warm, but he was still worried: "Well, thank you Director Luo for your trust, but Mr. Luo's investment in "Langya Bang" is too big. ”

Zhang Feng said a little apprehensively: "I'm afraid I'll mess you up." ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Feng paused: "Otherwise, you let me direct the next one, at a small cost." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll ask you a word, can you direct the drama "Langya Bang"?"

Luo Yiming looked at Zhang Feng's twisted appearance and was a little speechless: "I remember you said that you like to shoot costume dramas, and you failed because of irresistible factors, so you want to prove yourself." ”

"And now that the opportunity has come, whether you seize the opportunity to prove your Zhang Feng's ability, or don't dare to accept it, and be a turtle with a shrunken head, you decide for yourself. ”

This sentence is a bit agitated, and Zhang Feng also remembered the scene when Hairun humiliated him.

The prince and general, Ning You, the kind of insult Hairun gave him, Zhang Feng had long wanted to prove himself.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Director Luo, my name is Zhang Feng, I'm not pretending to be crazy, since you're not afraid, what else am I afraid of, don't worry, I will do my best to shoot this drama well!"

"Well, since you are the chief director, you can decide the matter of the actors who were determined before, and if you fail to pass the audition, you can also brush them all down!"

Luo Yiming knows that in addition to a good script, good actors are the most important thing in a play.

He finally gave Zhang Feng the role he needed for "Langya Bang" to decide again.

In this big drama, in addition to the roles of many actors in "Charlotte's Troubles", the slightly heavier ones are General Meng, Feiliu, King Yu and others.

Luo Yiming's selection of candidates is still not stable.

In the end, after the audition, the three roles of General Mengda, King Yu, and Prince regained their ownership, and in addition, some small roles were still from Shangteng Company.

However, like Feiliu, there are several other characters, and there is no suitable candidate.

Then, naturally, it is necessary to look for it from the outside world.

It's also a good thing, just enough to get some wind.

Compared with Luo Yiming's filming, the industry is still more concerned about Luo Yiming's next TV series.

So when Shangteng Entertainment revealed the next work, the discussion in the industry was very hot.

"I'm rubbing, it's a costume drama??"

"I really didn't expect it to be a costume drama, I thought it was either an urban or a sitcom?"

"The box office of the youth idol comedy "Charlotte Annoyed" is too terrifying on the Internet, in fact, I don't think it can be urban anymore, Luo Yiming will change the theme, but the costume drama is still a bit unexpected. ”

"Yes, from the city to the costume drama, this is a bit fast. ”

"Costume dramas are not easy to direct, not easy to film, Luo Yiming is really fat!"

……

The discussion was very hot, and of course it was divided into three groups.

said that it was great, and I was looking forward to Luo Yiming making some articles in costume dramas.

A set of words said that Luo Yiming was too inflated, he just made a movie and became popular, so he didn't know that the sky was thick, and he was going to make costume dramas again? Who gave him the courage?

There is also a group of Luo Yiming's fans, of course they believe in Luo Yiming and think that Luo Yiming can do anything.

thinks that Luo Yiming is the real king of the Chinese entertainment world, whether it is directing, acting, or singing, he is impeccable.

The three dials have successfully coaxed up the heat, which is much higher than the heat of Luo Yiming's movie.

Not only that, but other film and television companies are also more excited.

Luo Yiming is going to shoot a TV series again?

What the?

This kid doesn't stop at all.

What, Luo Yiming is just a screenwriter and assistant director?

The director is someone else.

It doesn't matter.

Then, everyone's attention turned to the work.

Thinking about Luo Yiming's works, they are all undefeated, and this new work has to involve its actors no matter what.

As a result, some brokerage companies are also actively contacting Shangteng Entertainment.

What the?

The male one is gone?

The second male is gone?

The first female and the second female are gone?

Well, for a while, some brokerage companies were a little disappointed, especially the male and female protagonists were also set.

But in the blink of an eye, the small brokerage company has hit the chicken blood again.

For them, their artists are already half-dead, so supporting roles are okay.

What if, the miracle of Charlotte's Troubles happens again?

Here, the preparation of the crew of "Langya Bang" is very smooth, and it has the prestige of the previous movie, even if this drama is not directed by Luo Yiming, it is also expected by the industry.

Everyone pays more attention to Luo Yiming's TV series.

And Shangteng Company, Zhang Feng was also busy contacting the remaining actors in the next few days.

However, regarding the starring role and the actor, Zhang Feng did not look for it.

He knew that Luo Yiming originally wanted to play Mei Changsu.

Zhang Feng also feels that Luo Yiming's temperament is very similar to Mei Changsu, if he goes outside to find actors, he may not be as good as Luo Yiming.

Of course, Luo Yiming is worried, afraid that he will not be able to act well, this kind of worry still exists as any first-line actor.

The biggest attraction of this drama is Mei Changsu.

Whether it can succeed or not, this character plays half the role.

After all, he is the central character who pulls up the whole story.

Two days later, the rest of the actors of "Langya Bang" were all in place, and at the same time, the promotion of this drama also began.

""Langya Bang" will be created by the original team of "Charlotte's Troubles", and this drama will also create a record for investment in costume dramas!"

"Shocking! The investment of "Langya Bang" is 150 million!"

"Shangteng Entertainment and Youshi, who insist on making conscience dramas, have joined forces, and everyone is looking forward to the costume drama "Langya Bang"!"

To promote this work, Shangteng and Youshi have accumulated experience after Charlotte's troubles, so how to blow it.

It's not illegal to brag anyway.

Use as much force as you can.

150 million, naturally not so much. But propaganda is like this, which is also the norm in the industry, and most of the investment and production costs in the industry are not credible.

One thing to say, most people say that the cost of investment may be twice as different from the real cost.

As for why film and television companies do this, then it is a matter of opinion.

Anyway, on the side of Shangteng Entertainment, they just wanted to increase the marketing power of "Langya Bang", so they directly blew the production cost of 150 million.

It doesn't matter if you believe it or not.

After the "Charlotte Troubles" movie, Langya Bang, as the pioneer of the TV series, is still the original cast, and everyone is looking forward to this drama.

Will it go further, or will it collapse with a bang?

We'll have to wait and see!
