Lin Zixuan received a phone call, said hello to Li Hong, and went to the General Administration for a meeting to discuss the matter of "Beijing People in New York".

He used to only write scripts and rarely attend such meetings, and Li Hong was usually in charge.

Now that he is the producer of this TV series, he has to coordinate all aspects of things, from the review of the script and the investment in place, to the friction in the crew, he has to participate in it.

It's a very workable job and it can also expand his network.

Especially in a large-scale production like "Beijing People in New York", Lin Zixuan had the opportunity to contact the leaders of the General Administration, the heads of TV stations, investors and various figures in the entertainment industry.

This is the entire ecosystem of the film and television industry.

Lin Zixuan finished producing this TV series and smoothed out the relationship between all aspects, and basically gained a firm foothold in this circle.

This is Li Hong's cultivation of him.

Otherwise, in this era of seniority, Lin Zixuan, who is not yet twenty-five years old, will never get such an opportunity.

There is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm, this is the view of young people in the society, in the unit, young people are engaged in errand work, and it is difficult to be entrusted with important tasks.

In addition to Li Hong's factors, this opportunity was also won by Lin Zixuan's continuous success.

If he didn't have the ability, Li Hong wouldn't do it, it was a seedling boost, and it was irresponsible to Lin Zixuan, once he messed up, the consequences would be very strict.

Lin Zixuan came to the General Administration and found that there were many people at this meeting, which looked very grand.

This was the first discussion of "Beijingers in New York".

Wu Zhenhui convened Huaguo Television and a number of sociologists, including experts with research on international forms, to discuss and evaluate the operability and value of the script.

Lin Zixuan is no stranger to this kind of meeting, and it is natural to get used to it.

He consciously took out a notebook and pen, answered questions from all parties with a proper attitude, humbly accepted the opinions of all parties, and then recorded the opinions and went back to revise the script.

This is the norm in the creation of film and television dramas in this era, and you can't say that you can shoot whatever you want, that's unrealistic.

Even big directors and big names have to abide by the rules, but their degree of freedom will be relatively high, they can bargain appropriately, and they will turn a blind eye.

Unless you don't follow the path within the system, you can make underground movies without scruples, but that road is very difficult.

Lin Zixuan knows very well that those young people who make underground movies seem to be very rebellious and individualistic now, but after many years, they are still desperately squeezing towards the mainstream film circle.

Mainstream circles are the general trend, and non-mainstream will only be marginalized by society.

Experts raised a lot of questions, including the setting of the characters in the play and the scrutiny of the plot.

For example, Wang Qiming was a cello-playing artist in China with profound cultural accomplishments, but when he arrived in the United States, he degenerated into a copper-smelling businessman who only wanted to make profits.

Wouldn't it be better to set this character as a businessman in Huaguo?

There are also the daughters of Wang Qiming and Guo Yan, who went to the United States and did not study, but fooled around, which involves the education of the next generation in China, is this what the next generation of our country is like this?

Lin Zixuan can still understand these questions, but just some of them make him cry and laugh.

For example, there is a plot in the script that Wang Qiming made money in the United States, became a rich man, lived a luxurious life, but his heart was empty, so he spent money to call a white recruit girl and sprinkled money on the recruit girl.

Some experts asked how big of a plot you are going to shoot and whether Wang Qiming and the recruit girl have a relationship.

They think that this plot will have a bad impact on the domestic audience, and it is easy to cause imitation, and it can't be said that you can mess with the relationship between men and women if you have money.

Lin Zixuan was subjected to a wave of inquiries.

Naturally, he will argue on the basis of reason, and the film filmed about life in the United States cannot be characterized by the standards of China, otherwise it can only shoot a TV series with an imaginary appearance, which cannot truly reflect the life of Chinese people in the United States.

The reason why this TV series was filmed in the United States is to film the original American life.

Even if this goal cannot be achieved, it is necessary to show the daily life of the United States as much as possible, so that the audience will feel that this is the United States, and this is the life of Chinese people in the United States.

As for the part between Wang Qiming and the recruiting girl, Lin Zixuan does not plan to delete it, at most the scale is a little smaller when shooting.

The discussion lasted for several hours, and Lin Zixuan's lunch was eaten at the General Bureau, and continued in the afternoon.

At the end of the script discussion, Wu Zhenhui talked about the topic of shooting funds.

At this time, the experts and scholars had left, and only the representatives of Huaguo TV and Lin Zixuan of the Art Center remained.

Wu Zhenhui first praised the achievements of the Beijing Television Art Center in the past, and then talked about the current problems in the creation of TV dramas, and put forward the concept of innovation and change to improve the cultural life of the people in the new era.

"Xiaolin, I know your difficulties, but you can't retreat if you have difficulties, you must take the initiative to solve difficulties, and now the country advocates to give full play to your subjective initiative, things can't wait for the country to solve them, you must dare to break through and find a new way. Wu Zhenhui said earnestly, "Don't worry, the General Administration will be your backing." ”

There is only one meaning in a set of official words, that is, the General Administration has no money.

"The TV station will also try its best to support you, we are also a unit, if there is anything, as long as the station can do it, there is no problem. The person from Huaguo TV said.

The meaning is obvious, don't mention what the station can't do, and the TV station can't pay for it.

Lin Zixuan smiled bitterly in his heart, these people are all old fritters, and it is too difficult to ask for money from them.

"Thank you for the leadership's concern, we will solve the difficulties ourselves. Lin Zixuan said in a deep voice, "However, there are a few points that need to be cooperated by the bureau and the station so that we can carry out our work." ”

"Xiaolin, you talk about it, the bureau will try to help you solve it. Wu Zhenhui said briskly.

Lin Zixuan put forward three points, one is that the bureau issued an article jiàn, which proves that "Beijing People in New York" is focused on by the bureau and is an excellent project strongly supported by the bureau.

There is also an art center and Huaguo TV signed a buyback contract, and the filming of the TV series is completed, and if there is no problem with the review, Huaguo TV will ensure that it will be broadcast in prime time.

Finally, Huaguo TV has to introduce its advertisers to the art center.

In the past few years, those who can advertise on Huaguo TV are all rich companies, which are the preferred targets for sponsorship.

Lin Zixuan's purpose is very simple, he wants to pull the banner as a tiger skin and raise money everywhere.
