537 Film and Television Department
Since "In the Name of the People" is ready to start filming, the Earth Entertainment Film Department has become the busiest department.
Although it is a TV series to be filmed, Fang Jing feels that there is no need to set up a special TV drama department. simply upgraded the film department to the film and television department. In addition to the original film production, the production of TV dramas has also been added.
And the current three directors in the film and television department have all developed very well recently. Last year's three films all achieved very good results. Among them, Cai Minhua and Lu Jun have both risen sharply in fame, and they are now the top directors in the third tier. The industry has a high evaluation of them, and these two people have even played the name of "Earth's Double Heroes" in the film industry.
Fang Jing has also seen their movies, among which "Wolf Warrior" directed by Cai Minhua has a very high degree of restoration and completely captures the essence of this drama.
Next, Fang Jing is ready to hand over the script of "Wolf Warrior 2" to director Cai Minhua.
You must know that "Wolf Warrior 2" is on the earth, but it has created a new box office height of 5 billion. If he can still direct this movie well, Cai Minhua's promotion to a second-tier director is definitely a stable position, and the position of a first-line director is also possible for him.
If Earth Entertainment can have one more first-line director, its strength will also reach a new level.
It's just that "Beijing Love Story" directed by Lu Jun is slightly insufficient. Although the box office results are quite passing, the reputation is also good. But Fang Jing has seen the original work, and he is not confused by the appearance of the box office, and he can clearly see the gap.
This made Fang Jing find that Lu Jun was still a step behind Cai Minhua in terms of development potential. It's just that he is not good at judging the level of a director completely because of a work. Fang Jing estimated that he could also arrange two movies to test the water.
But before coming up with a good work, Fang Jing is going to give Lu Jun fewer resources than Cai Minhua.
And the most surprising thing is that "Once Upon a Time" directed by Jiang Hong has a bumper harvest at the box office. The box office directly exceeded one billion and won the position of the schedule champion.
Jiang Hong has turned over in one fell swoop, fought a beautiful turnaround battle, and stabilized the position of the second-tier rating. However, the industry's evaluation of him is not very high, it is only a high-level outbreak, and it can't create a director's reputation.
During this time, Fang Jing has already redeemed the script of the second part of the Wong Fei Hung series, "Wong Fei Hung's Boy Should Be Self-Improvement". And it has already reached the stage of preparing for filming, as long as Jiang Hong can maintain the performance of the first part. Fang Jing believes that when all the Wong Fei Hung series is filmed, Earth Entertainment will have one more first-line director.
At that time, even if Huang Feihong finishes filming, he can still shoot Ip Man and other works, and the box office will definitely be successful.
Now in the film and television department of Earth Entertainment, Fang Jing has been completely handed over to Jiang Hong. After all, if you want to grasp film and television, you must have a director who understands the circle.
Jiang Hong has to prepare for the filming of a new movie on the one hand, and on the other hand, he has to prepare for the TV series, and he is already very busy, and he can't sleep more than five hours a day.
Fang Jinghui handed over the film and television department to Jiang Hong for management, first of all, Jiang Hong himself has certain management ability, and secondly, he is a veteran director, and he knows more people in the circle. Although there are not many works that can be used, many people will complain about him on the Internet, but as long as they meet, they will give him a little face.
Secondly, in addition to ability, trust is also the most important part of the selection of managers.
Fang Jing and Jiang Hong are old acquaintances, so he can rest assured that the film and television department will be managed by Jiang Hong. However, Jiang Hong's performance did make Fang Jing satisfied.
"This is a resume submitted by various entertainment companies. ”
"The preliminary screening of those who do not meet the requirements of the role is here. ”
Since the script has not been announced, Earth Entertainment has not yet released the recruitment of the characters. Therefore, the entertainment companies that submit resumes do not know the specific requirements of the role, and they belong to the state of casting the actors in one go.
At first, Fang Jing also neglected this, and he didn't expect that there would be so many people involved in the casting, which caused the current trouble.
Jiang Hong stayed up for two all-nighters to complete the preliminary checks, screened out the actors who met the requirements of the role, and sent a total of eighty-three actors' resumes to Fang Jing's public desk.
During this time, Fang Jing also stayed in the company to work overtime. It's hard to see him in the company, but as long as he starts preparing for the movie, he always sits in the office.
"Oh, okay. Fang nodded, pulling a large stack of resumes in front of him a little.
Although the entertainment company, do not know the role requirements. But Jiang Hong is clear about the requirements of the role, and this time in the whole TV series, there are a total of fifteen roles involved in external casting. After passing the initial checks, it is not surprising that there are still so many resumes left.
He looked up and saw that each resume was labeled with the name of the character who created the candidate.
Not long after Jiang Hong left the office, Fang Jing's hands left the computer keyboard and began to pick up a resume.
Recently, all of his time has been spent on revising TV scripts. Although the original work is already a masterpiece, because the original work wants to express too widely, sometimes it seems redundant.
For example, the fragment of Xiao Huang Mao is a failure. Whenever there is a shot of Xiao Huang Mao, netizens will choose to jump sharply. From this, it can be seen.
And the number of 52 episodes of the whole drama is not necessary in Fang Jing's opinion, it seems a bit watery. After his final revision, the script was set at 45 episodes, which greatly reduced the fragments of Xiao Huang Mao, but did not cut his characters.
In fact, Fang Jing can understand the original work, and even admire the original work.
Because this TV series completely shows the ideological status quo of all strata and groups in today's era, as well as contradictions and conflicts. It can be said that in the TV, every character is a representative face of a group.
Sha Ruijin, Li Dakang, Gao Yuliang, Qi Tongwei......
Each person is unique and represents a state of thought in society.
Even the mayor of Sun Liancheng, who seems to be useless and wants to cultivate immortals in his mind, implies the status quo of officials who are "lazy and lazy".
Therefore, in order to interpret these characters, Yuan used more space to explain the little characters. In the absence of plot conflicts, this kind of explanation seems a bit watery. And the director of the original work can probably see this, but he is just making an attempt, or he prefers to tell the story comprehensively.
After the original director's attempt, Fang Jing saw the shortcomings, and this time he naturally had to revise it.
But he only deleted some unwanted plots, and he didn't dare to cut any of the characters. Only deleting and not cutting is his criterion when changing the script.
After reading a few resumes, Fang Jing became a little lacking in nature, and after reading a few more, he was even a little bored.
I rubbed my temples and could only continue to look at it.
