Chapter 279: Script Deduction
Of course, being well-funded is only a relative concept.
The copyright fee of "The Masked Singer" of 1.5 billion yuan may be regarded as a lot of income for the TV station.
Even, even if it is replaced by a wireless station, it is a pen that can be called a huge amount of copyright income.
However, in fact, to invest in the filming of TV series, you still need to do more planning.
First of all, the TV series with too much investment was directly excluded by Shen Zhengyuan, although he has the copyright fee obtained by selling the variety copyright of the TV station, but, first, according to the contract signed between Al Jazeera and Huaxia Satellite TV, this expensive copyright fee cannot be paid directly and completely at one time, and the other party will first pay 500 million in advance fees, as for the remaining copyright fees, it will wait until Shen Zhengyuan helps Huaxia Satellite TV to release the Huaxia version of "The Masked Singer" After it is made, it will be paid for later.
Second, even if Shen Zhengyuan really has 1.5 billion copyright fees in his hands, he can't stupidly devote all of them to the filming of the TV series.
He still understands the truth of risk control.
The filming of the TV series, whether for Shen Zhengyuan or Al Jazeera, is a big adventure.
In fact, he can't be 100% sure that the TV series filmed by his TV station can be successful.
After all, TVB launches so many TV series every year, and only a few are really successful.
Although TV series are highly profitable, they are also accompanied by extremely high risks.
Although Shen Zhengyuan is looking forward to the first TV series filmed by the TV station, he will not be blindly optimistic, thinking that as long as the TV series he shoots will be successful. He is not the protagonist in some cities, everything will go according to his wishes.
However, in this case, Shen Zhengyuan thought that an item in his inventory just matched the situation he was currently experiencing.
[Script Deduction Card]: A one-time consumable item, the broadcasting industry is ever-changing, no one can guarantee that the program they create can be dominant, and after using it, you can clearly see the future details of the script in your hand.
At the beginning, when he won this item, Shen Zhengyuan attached great importance to it and carefully collected it, thinking that he would use it when it was right.
And, now, it seems, that the right time seems to be now.
As for the script object used, in fact, Shen Zhengyuan already had an object, if nothing else, it was the TV script of "The Producer", which has the experimental nature of a variety show.
Although "The Producer" is classified as a TV series, from the perspective of shooting techniques alone, it borrows a lot from the shooting methods of variety shows, which is very suitable for novices like Al Jazeera who have never been in contact with TV series production in the past to shoot, so Shen Zhengyuan chose this drama as the starting point of his TV series from the beginning.
Select the script and decide to use it.
With a flash of white light, Shen Zhengyuan really 'saw' the future details about the script of "The Producer".
In fact, it is not very accurate to say 'see', because the information about the TV series is directly turned into a picture and appears in Shen Zhengyuan's mind. That's right, the so-called detailed method in the introduction of the item is actually to directly convert the script into the original shooting content of the TV series and play it directly in Shen Zhengyuan's mind.
Looking at the plot of the first episode of "The Producer" playing in his mind, Shen Zhengyuan was speechless for a while.
In this way, I silently watched a small part of the first episode of "The Producer".
First of all, the good thing is that Shen Zhengyuan can basically confirm the starring lineup in this drama. It is worthy of being a TV series launched by KBS, and its starring lineup is also eager to be unprecedentedly strong, which can be described as star-studded.
However, it was this brilliant starring lineup that made Shen Zhengyuan difficult.
Because, he found that if the actors were invited according to the original lineup, it would basically be impossible for the TV station.
First of all, about the male lead actor of this drama, Kim so-hyun and Cha Tae-hyun invited by the original version of KBS, the former as the actor of Professor Du in last year's hit drama "You from the Star", has recently become very popular, KBS, as a cable station and a state-run television station, has a huge energy to invite this popular fried chicken to play the male lead in the play. It doesn't mean that Shen Zhengyuan's Al Jazeera also has the same energy to invite him.
Not to mention anything else, just because Kim so-hyun has multiplied his salary several times after the popularity of "My Love from the Star", it is obviously not something that Shen Zhengyuan's TV station can afford.
As for the other leading actor Cha Tae-hyun, although, in recent years, this performance in the variety show "Two Days and One Night" has been more eye-catching than in movies and TV series. However, it is still impossible to deny the huge popularity and appeal that he has as a movie actor.
Even, because of the appearance of "Two Days and One Night", Cha Tae-hyun's affinity image in the minds of the audience has become more and more stable. The national population has only increased, not decreased.
Moreover, according to the setting of the original "Producer", the identity of Luo Junmo, one of the male protagonists played by Cha Tae-hyun, in the play is itself the PD of the fictional fourth season of "Two Days and One Night", and he is obviously using his stalk as a member of "Two Days and One Night" to produce the effect of the TV series.
KBS was able to use "Two Days and One Night" to produce a TV drama, but if it was filmed by Shen Jung-won's Al Jazeera, it was obviously impossible.
After all, the TV series filmed by his own TV station can't always be promoted for KBS's variety shows.
However, after thinking about it carefully, although Cha Tae-hyun's invitation is difficult, it does not mean that the TV station does not have a chance.
Cha Tae-hyun has also taken on a lot of movies and TV series in recent years, but he has not had any outstanding results, such a result may be a blow to Cha Tae-hyun himself as an actor, but from Shen Zhengyuan's point of view, it is an opportunity to invite him to appear in a TV series.
Of course, an opportunity is an opportunity, and as for whether it will succeed or not, in fact, Shen Zhengyuan has no bottom in his heart.
However, in any case, since Cha Tae-hyun starred in the original version of "The Producer", although he is now planning to shoot the Al Jazeera version of "The Producer", the general framework of the plot has not changed much, and it should still be attractive to Cha Tae-hyun.
After talking about the problem of the male lead, the next thing is naturally to talk about the heroine of the drama "The Producer".
Although, "The Producer" is a TV series plot that is promoted behind the scenes of variety shows.
However, this does not mean that there is no heroine in the play.
In fact, as far as Shen Zhengyuan saw from the original "Producer", the heroine actor.
Coincidentally, it was the one who had a brief relationship with him before - IU, Lee Ji-eun.
