A few days later, when Zhou Xing was filming an advertisement at Hongshan Lake, the source of Nongfu Spring in Jiangnan City, he received a call from Du Mingsong, vice president of Huagui Pictures. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Mr. Zhou, where are you now?"

Zhou Xing signaled to Zheng Longming to wait for a while, and then said with a smile as he walked to the side: "I'm back to Jiangnan and I'm filming an advertisement, what's wrong Mr. Du?"

Du Mingsong said speechlessly: "Why did you run back again, our matter here is not over yet." ”

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "With you Mr. Du sitting there, I still have something to worry about, and I am also a layman in the matter of investment promotion, or you are more professional." ”

Du Mingsong said: "Mr. Zhou, that's not what I said, even if our lord is responsible, you can't be the shopkeeper and leave everything to us, besides, it is very difficult to attract investment now, and I am trying to discuss this matter with you." ”

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "Our Mr. Guo is not in the capital, and you can discuss it with him." ”

Du Mingsong said: "Mr. Zhou, you are not authentic, you are so busy with the affairs of your Guo Theater that you can't see anyone all day long, besides, you are always responsible for this play, if this is the case, I really have an opinion." ”

Zhou Xing became upset at this time: "Okay, then tell me, what's wrong?"

Du Mingsong said earnestly: "Mr. Zhou, since we are in a cooperative relationship now, I won't say anything about the fiction, everything is to shoot this drama well, don't you say?"

"Yes, that's what you said. Zhou Xing nodded.

Du Mingsong said: "I suggested to you before, don't look for all the actors in your theater for the starring roles, it's not that I'm dissatisfied with them, I admit that the ones you chose have good overall quality, and you don't have to say anything about your acting skills, if you look at it from the perspective of shooting alone, you have done a good job in this regard." However, you can't just think about the show itself, but also the market. ”

After a pause, Du Mingsong continued: "Why are we filming TV series, isn't it just to broadcast it on TV, sell it at a good price, and at the same time have good ratings to enhance fame and expand influence, so we can't ignore the market." But among these leading actors, except for you, they are all third-line, not even third-line, although they are not ugly, but they still lack eye-catching highlights!"

Zhou Xing couldn't cry or laugh: "Mr. Du, don't go around the bend with me, just say it directly." ”

Du Mingsong nodded and said: "So, what I am telling you today is not from the perspective of shooting, but from the aspect of business operation, in business, after all, your laughter factory is also one of the investors, this drama has benefited, you also have benefits, do you say that what I said is right?"

Zhou Xing was a little speechless, and said for a while, this guy is still playing a trick on him.

However, Zhou Xing also understood what Du Mingsong meant, in fact, Zhou Xing understood that there would be such a day before, not after the press conference.

Just like the public discussed, sitcoms in this world are indeed products of the eighties and nineties of the last century, when due to the limitations of filming funds and lack of entertainment, people's pursuit was very simple, sitcoms had a market at that time, and with little investment, they could get high ratings and returns.

But this world is not like his previous life, in his own world, Chinese sitcoms have always continued, and this world, after the millennium, with the development of social and technological innovation, especially the rise of the Internet and online dramas, sitcoms have gradually faded out of people's sight.

After all, sitcoms have very high requirements for screenwriters, and in their previous lives, there are those in the United States such as "The Big Bang Theory", "Friends", "Growing Pains" and so on to learn from, but this world does not have these, and foreign countries are similar to China, all of which are developing by leaps and bounds in entertainment and have a variety of tricks, while sitcoms have long been missing for many years.

Besides, if you can use routine, or hunting, sexy or even vulgar film and television creations to gain the market, who will honestly work hard to write such a difficult sitcom?

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "Mr. Du, I know what you said is the truth, but I also have my considerations, sitcoms are not like those dramas that are hot now, they rely on star effect, and we rely on the plot, if you use stars to distract the audience's attention, it is not only the plot that is distracted, but also word of mouth." ”

Du Mingsong was stunned.

Zhou Xing continued: "In addition, you also know that the price of a popular star is so high now, why spend tens of millions more on things that we can solve with a salary of one million?"

Du Mingsong immediately seized the loophole in Zhou Xing's words and said: "But Mr. Zhou, you have to understand that if we spend tens of millions more, it may bring higher income, not only advertising fees, but also more confidence when selling copyrights. ”

Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment, thinking about it, but he still had his own insistence, so naturally he would not be persuaded by Du Mingsong so easily, and asked rhetorically:

"So, Mr. Du, invite a popular star to come over, which role are you going to let him play?"

Du Mingsong said with a smile: "Didn't you say it at the beginning, you are responsible for the shooting, and our company will not interfere, this is what you have repeatedly fought for before." ”

Zhou Xing laughed: "Mr. Du, you can't mean what you say, right? If I let a first-line popular star play a supporting role, will I be scolded to death by his tens of millions of fans? But if I let him play the male lead, where will you put me?"

Only then did Du Mingsong understand that Zhou Xing's reason was here, and after coming to his senses, Du Mingsong immediately said: "No, hehe, you can also invite a female star to play the female number one Tong Xiangyu!"

Zhou Xing smiled dumbly: "Mr. Du, you should have read the script, Tong Xiangyu's character setting is a twenty-seven or eight-year-old widow, a woman with graceful demeanor and all kinds of amorous feelings, the advantages are kindness, human touch, and righteousness, but there are also shortcomings such as slamming the door, greedy for money, good face, etc., such an important character is something that the current popular first-line beautiful young female star can control?"

Du Mingsong was stunned, and then said with a smile: "Look for it, the current popular female stars don't all rely on their faces to eat, there are always good acting skills." ”

"But what about age?" Zhou Xing said: "It's impossible to find someone who is too young and beautiful." ”

Seeing that Zhou Xing always had a reason to shirk, Du Mingsong asked, "You recognized Zhang Junhong in your theater, right?"

Zhou Xing laughed: "Hehe, Mr. Du still has a vision." ”

Du Mingsong was speechless for a moment, and said directly to the showdown: "Okay, you say, you have to pick one of the main roles for me, you don't know, I have run so many film and television dramas, and the advertising of this drama is the most difficult. ”

Hearing Du Mingsong's complaints, Zhou Xing didn't know how to explain it.

Zhou Xing knows the characteristics of the drama "Wulin Gaiden", and no one will believe that it will be a big hit before it is broadcast and sees the ratings, so naturally, Du Mingsong's job is not easy to do.

"Mr. Du, I understand your difficulties. ”

After Zhou Xing pondered for a while, he suddenly remembered one thing, it is impossible for this Du Mingsong not to know his plans, it is impossible for the male number one and the female number one to let go, unless......

Thinking of this, Zhou Xing said: "Just say, which character do you fancie?"

"Guo Furong!"

Sure enough, Du Mingsong went around in a circle and said the goal he had set at the beginning.
