According to the screenwriters, Padana has its meaning, and the river that runs through Italy all year round symbolizes the never-ending gray chain in the entertainment industry.

Gan Jing couldn't keep up with the brain circuits of the screenwriters, but he didn't have much objection to the name, but this group of people repeatedly wanted to give it more meaning after determining the name.

"Hey, hurry up and write the script, how much have you written today?"

"Just write, just write. ”

"Make a plan, can you watch five more today?"

"Do your best, do your best. ”

Gan Jing let it go, he believed that if he didn't urge, Paramount would let this group of screenwriters scratch their hair.

After two days, the script has not yet come out, but the director has been recommended, a Gianfranco Rossi from Italy - this Italian has been a director, screenwriter, cinematographer, producer, graduated from New York University Film School, and his current work is almost all documentaries.

Paramount thinks that since it was filmed in Italy and the gray chain of the entertainment industry is applied there, then Rossi is more suitable.

Gan Jing agreed.

However, because of the director's background, he remembered Yang Aiyan, who was newly recruited and prepared to be used as a material for recording Peking Opera.

Gan Jing passed this idea to the company, asked Yang Aiyan to prepare, and handled all the visa matters in advance, and then he would install the title of assistant director and go to Italy with him.

This news made Yang Aiyan, who had just made some progress with the young lady, a little frustrated, but he knew that this was the company's training, and anyone who changed would shout lucky, so he had to encourage himself to pursue the young lady more smoothly if he had a career.

Gan Jing doesn't know what the people below him think, but he has become more and more results-oriented lately, as is the case with a resolution called Plan A that was discussed by the company's top management.

Bairi has developed a five-year development plan aimed at expanding its influence to the Asian region and gaining the ability to compete with Hollywood in the region.

This plan is a rough creation, and it must be constantly recuperated with the actual situation.

Now, one of the policies discussed by each business unit is to use Chinese culture as an output point to create worldview works like Marvel and DC.

In this regard, Huaxia has an advantage, and the myths and stories that have been passed down from generation to generation are basically under the same worldview, and even if there are differences, they are easy to integrate.

Western superheroes, there are also in China, the most famous is the Monkey King, in addition, the Erlang God who splits the mountain to save his mother, Dayu who controls the water and saves the common people, and so on.

However, it is difficult to show Chinese myths and stories in a single or two 120-minute movies, so one of the ideas discussed by the top management of Bairihong is to use well-made TV series to export to the outside world.

"TV series?" Gan Jing was very surprised when he first heard the so-called Plan A, he hadn't acted in this since his debut, so he didn't know anything about it.

"Yes, the Chinese mythology system is very huge, and movies can only take the tip of the iceberg, I think we can follow the form of American dramas to shoot, the first season, the second season, like this. It was Zhang Ziran of the Production Division who spoke, he once had the experience of working for the American television network, and after returning to China, he entered the light, and now he has been poached into 100 days.

"American drama......" Gan Jing dug into his distant memories, well, he seems to have had the experience of making a guest appearance in the American drama "The Big Bang Theory", so it seems that he has not acted in a TV series at all.

Zhang Ziran has perfected his thinking in continuous discussions, pointing out two main points: "First of all, such a production must be excellent in quality, and secondly, its world view must be self-consistent, prepare for the production of the film, and leave a gap for the movie." ”

"TV dramas export the worldview, so that at least Asian audiences are familiar with it, so that they will not be confused when they see the movie, and they can quickly substitute and appreciate it. Zhang Ziran continued.

Gan Jing nodded, this did sound like that, he thought for a while, and asked, "How are you going to make it?"

"One hundred million in one season. Liu Tao of the film and television department replied that he was the former vice president of Huayi who made Wang Zhonglei angry.

Gan Jing was taken aback: "So expensive?"

Liu Tao said solemnly: "It's at least 100 million, this budget is difficult to save, like Hu Ge's "Langya Bang", the production cost of this TV series is about 110 million. ”

Gan Jing had never understood this aspect of the market before, but now it is an eye-opener, and it is really not cheap.

"The price may rise this year, as far as I know, there is a "Flower Thousand Bone" and "The Legend of Wu Meiniang" that I am doing this year, I don't know the specific price, but it should also be a production fee of more than 100 million. Liu Tao continued to spread knowledge.

Gan Jing's surprise has eaten enough, he lowered his head and calculated, hey, it seems that it seems that it is necessary to sell 1% more Uber shares specifically to support Plan A, at least 100 million a quarter, that is not a total of four or five billion.

"By the way, how many seasons are your plans to do, and when will it start?" Gan Jing looked up, his expression calm.

Lao Chen replied: "Five seasons, use old drama bones and fine special effects to do it." The first season of "Sage Lich", the second season of "The World of Men and Gods", the third season of "Fengshen", the fourth season of "Journey to the West", and the fifth season of "The End of the Law". ”

"It really sounds like the taste of Chinese culture. Gan Jing thought about it and probably understood that dividing it into five quarters is the company's five-year development plan, and if one quarter is calculated according to 130 million, then five quarters is 650 million, which is indeed a huge amount of money.

"In terms of funding, we don't have to bear it ourselves, such a TV series is bound to find a partner, and Tang Ren like Hu Ge has very mature production experience and is a potential partner to consider. Lao Chen said.

"In principle, I don't have a problem. Gan Jing said slowly, "Since it is used to export the worldview, there is no need to have too much pressure on profits." ”

Hearing Forrest Gump say this, the high-level executives present at Bairihong breathed a sigh of relief.

"We do things for a long time, and the worldview may not be able to see anything for a while. Gan Jing understands this very well, "Since you have done it, let's keep improving, but ......"

"TV dramas pay attention to ratings, not to mention profits, the ratings that improve season by season should not be too much of a request, right?" Gan Jing smiled, "Since it is the kind of model that you want to learn from American dramas, if you don't like it, cut it off, should you also learn it?"

Gan Jing's eyes were blazing, and people would not have the slightest doubt that he had the decision to give a knife.

Season 1, season 2, there was a eunuch once upon a time,
