Chapter 72: Signing Director He
After dinner, he continued to be busy with his own affairs, hid in the dormitory and wrote the script with peace of mind, and wanted to finish the script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" as soon as possible. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Now he is preparing to star in a lot of film and television drama projects, such as "One-armed Knife", "Tai Chi Grandmaster", "Thunderbolt 2" and so on, there is not much time during the holidays, and there must be a lot of work arrangements during the winter vacation, I don't know when the drama "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will start filming, but the script must be written in advance, be prepared, and you can't prepare it now.
For some of the industry's largest companies, it's normal to plan three or four years in advance.
Zhou Yi should prepare more projects to facilitate the company's coordination and selection.
In the blink of an eye, it was Sunday, and Zhou Yi worked as usual.
His daily life is like this, he has morning work for breakfast, and then with his sister, he goes to the TV drama crew to dub, writes scripts in his free time, and finds time to do homework. The acting department also has homework, and there are after-class homework on the sound table, and you have to observe life and write weekly notes. Time is crammed to the brim. Fortunately, Zhou Yi has a super brain and his memory is far beyond that of normal people, so he can cope with it, otherwise he would not be able to be busy.
However, this kind of hard training can really improve the strength of the actors.
Relying on Yanying's teaching system, Zhou Yi can be improved to the greatest extent and can be used for a lifetime.
This system has been proven by countless predecessors and is sure to be effective.
The dubbing was busy all morning, and at noon on Sunday, Zhou Yi once again received good news from the company's headquarters.
After Zhuo Qinglian's unremitting efforts, director He Andong felt Zhengdong's sincerity, and finally accepted Zhengdong's invitation and became the contracted director of Zhengdong Pictures, and now he is the company's second contracted director, and he is also the chief director of the TV series, which belongs to the production department.
Of course, he read the script outline and protagonist of "Tai Chi Grandmaster" written by Zhou Yi, so he agreed to sign a contract.
Zhengdong Pictures finally has a senior TV drama director who was born in Yanying.
Director He Andong used to graduate from Yanying.
Aunt Tanya is more familiar with him, so she will take him directly to her sister's house at the beginning.
As for Director Zhao, he didn't graduate from Yanying.
Zhou Yi hadn't paid attention to it before, but Director Zhao usually seemed to mention that he had studied directing in Chinese opera before, and he should be regarded as a Chinese opera background, so he has always been very supportive of Gao Song. Takamatsu didn't change jobs before, which probably has something to do with it.
Zhengdong Pictures had a strong taste of Chinese opera at the beginning, and there were also Shanghai operas, but there was no Yanying background.
But as Zhou Yi and Tang Yan grew up, director He Andong joined, and the Yanying faction was formed.
This is an inevitable trend in the development of a film and television company, and it is impossible for one company to dominate.
It's not safe to rely on just one director.
In fact, it is not that there are no other companies in the industry that have the idea of beating Director Zhao, after all, Director Zhao has proved himself, although the blockbuster failed, he can still rely on small-budget films to turn over, this kind of continuously successful director will naturally be favored by the industry, although he will only make small-budget films, but it is also very good. Big companies don't care, but second- and third-tier companies appreciate it.
It's just that Director Zhao is not stupid, so he won't leave Zhengdong, which is on the rise, for a little money.
This has nothing to do with whether Zhengdong has a military background or not, who can always rely on this bluff? Zhuo Qinglian will not either.
Always instructing his subordinates to drive and hit people, that's what a madman does.
None of those who had earlier switched jobs had been retaliated against.
Director Zhao is reluctant to change jobs because Zhengdong has a future action superstar like Zhou Yi, who doesn't want to grow up with him? What an advantage! Can other companies have this kind of superstar in the future? How can such thick thighs give up so easily?
The director must take a long-term view, and there is absolutely no future for the mouse's eyes.
Besides, without Zhou Yi's planning project, can Director Zhao guarantee that he will continue to succeed in the future? What if it fails? What's the use of changing jobs? Will he be able to come back then? Who will trust him? In this case, it is better to stay in the east and be safe and stable. Especially Director Zhao is a veteran of the company, and all kinds of treatment are very good, how can he leave the familiar environment and start all over again in other places!
If outsiders want to dig him, he will definitely not be able to dig it, Director Zhao is a smart person and knows how to dig a big tree.
The company is very relieved of him, but rest assured, he still has to recruit other directors.
Director Zhao alone can't support a large company.
Now due east is considered a second line, which is enough for the time being, but what about in the future?
Director Zhao of course understands this truth, he welcomed Director He's joining, and made a special call to greet him, in fact, this is a good thing, he has no idea, the company can make more films, the ability to resist risks is stronger, and the strength is getting stronger and stronger, it is impossible for him to be the only director, which has no effect on him. And he can't film desperately 365 days a year, isn't that going to be exhausting?
This year, since the acquisition of the company in March, he is about to overdraft three movies in a row, and he is indeed under a lot of pressure, filming is not a simple job, especially the director's work is very tiring, Director Zhao sometimes feels haggard, and he is not an iron man.
But he is the only director in the company, who is he not on?
Now Director Zhao really needs someone to share the pressure.
Director He is not here to rob him of his position, there is no threat to him, he naturally welcomes it.
Everyone talked happily and cherished each other.
Moreover, Director He also has a group of familiar people under him, who often cooperate, and this time he has the opportunity, so he naturally came to Zhengdong with him. Zhengdong happened to lack the filming team of the TV series, so he gladly accepted it, not bad for this salary expenditure, as long as he could contribute to the filming of the TV series. At this time, the framework of the TV drama crew can be simply set up, although it is not complete, but it can be gradually improved. Director He will be responsible for completing these tasks. His first job is to improve the framework of the TV drama crew, and then start the filming of the first project "Tai Chi Grandmaster" after joining.
This project has been discussed in a meeting with the company's senior management.
Everyone has read Zhou Yi's script outline and the characters of the male and female protagonists, and they think it is very valuable and can be made into a TV series.
After all, "Tai Chi Grandmaster" is a story based on the famous inner boxing master "Yang Luchan" in the late Qing Dynasty, and has a wide mass base, as long as it is filmed well, the ratings will definitely be guaranteed. As for the action scenes, that's Zhengdong's strong point, so what's there to worry about. Zhou Yi plays Tai Chi, naturally there is no problem, and it is no problem to take his sister to play together. This is still a sister drama, everyone understands that Zhou Yi explained it very frankly.
The hero and heroine are tailor-made for him and Tang Yan.
Moreover, the super master Duan Wang Ye in the play will be played by the robot Teng Tiangang, at least the lineup is super luxurious.
This point is also specifically explained by Zhou Yi in the outline of the character.
As for the supporting actress, it is to be selected for the time being, and then we will see if Guo Aiming's sister is suitable, or Qiu Cao can also be. But is Qiu Cao's family's? How did you think it was your own? Use it if you want to? I really don't treat myself as an outsider. Zhou Yi didn't care, but Lang Jun cared.
Anyway, this costume action TV series is officially established.
All kinds of work are naturally completed by the relevant departments of the company step by step.
The script outline has been handed over to the screenwriting team for them to study the screenplay.
The screenwriting team is also hard enough, and the three of them are also spinning in a row, but they are as happy as they are, and they all have dividends, and the company will not treat them badly. With such a good treatment, they definitely don't want to change jobs. With their ability, it is not difficult to come up with a wonderful script based on an idea. At the beginning, Zhuo Qinglian would rather send his subordinates to drive to hit the boss of Chishi, but also to keep the screenwriters, because he valued their abilities.
This is Zhengdong's second TV series project after "Flower Season", and preparations have begun to be in full swing again.
Recently, in addition to the happy event that Director He joined, the music department also has frequent good news.
Zheng Longshi's voice competition still has the last "Peak Night" left, which is needless to say.
Things like shady competitions, unspoken rules of the industry, etc., can't get Zheng Longshi, after all, his whole family is a person in the legal profession, and there is no shortage of judges, prosecutors, and lawyers, who will have nothing to provoke him, and it will definitely be no good thing to provoke him. Besides, Zheng Longshi was also admitted to the Central Conservatory of Music, has a background in the circle, and the teacher is a well-known professor in the industry, with huge influence, and he is not easy to mess with.
If you really let people criticize from a professional point of view, can this show still be done?
In this way, Zheng Longshi will naturally not be affected by those.
Besides, the voice program in this life is different from the previous life, in the previous life, it was a program run by an entertainment company, and it cooperated with a TV station, if you don't sign a contract, of course the entertainment company will not praise you, and it will definitely brush you down, and it will not let you advance to the finals.
But the voice program in this world is run by CCTV itself, and it is impossible to sign all these participating singers to CCTV! That's not a joke? And it's enough for CCTV to make money from advertising, and it doesn't need to rely on these artists and singers to make money.
In this way, the competition process will be much fairer, and it will not be as shady as the competition in the previous life.
Therefore, Zheng Longshi has been smooth sailing, relying on his own singing strength, coupled with Zhou Yi's original songs, he has advanced to the final stage.
Wait until October 7, the last day of the National Day holiday, to be the peak night of the finals.
Zhou Yi usually just cares about it casually, and doesn't pay much attention to it.
He only knew that Zheng Longshi and An Dehai had advanced to the finals.
It seems that Daqin's public relations are very powerful, and it is good to have a background, but An Dehai must have a level, otherwise no matter how much he wins, he will not be able to enter the peak night of the finals, and it is estimated that he and Zheng Longshi will still have a dragon fight.
This is simply a battle between the stick and the lame. What's the idea? Zhou Yi's idea was also surprising, and he took the two of them together, and he was very happy. However, he really didn't worry about Zheng Longshi. Zheng Longshi's original song resources are good enough, and there must be no problem. Besides, coming to this point, it's almost enough, what it should be, what it is, you can only rely on yourself.
Zhou Yi didn't have to win the championship.
Now the Voice competition is just a trivial matter, Zhou Yi is usually too busy to watch this show at all, how can he have that leisure, but the Dynasty Band has a trend of becoming popular, the main reason is the singing of the premiere, which attracts the audience.
After the high-definition video of the premiere was exposed, coupled with the high-quality singing recordings released, and the company's publicity department to cooperate with the publicity, the Dynasty Band has indeed received widespread attention from the industry. Although they are now just a small band, they are not unknown and their fame is currently growing. Some commercial performances in the outside world have also begun to look for them to participate in performances.
There are also more invitations to the concerts of some seniors.
These things are naturally handled by the company's music department and brokerage department, the two deputy directors Mr. Liang Yirong and Ms. Meng Shaoguang will be responsible, and Mr. Su Jian will also help, although the company's paid download sales system has not yet been established, but the Dynasty Band does have a work plan to participate in commercial performances in the near future, so that the music department will also have a lot of income, and the Dynasty Band will also benefit a lot, which is conducive to the stability of people's hearts.
It's good, and everybody is happy.
At the same time, Ms. Meng Shaoguang will also be responsible for some planning and publicity of the Zhou Yichong Award, and the TV drama music award of the Feitian Award at the end of the year must be sought. If Zhou Yi can win the award, he can win a heavyweight award at such a young age, and the influence will definitely be very huge, and it will also drive the brand effect of Zhengdong. This is not an optional award, of course, you have to go all out and strive for it.
Ms. Meng Shaoguang will be responsible for communicating and cooperating with Caizi Group and Bomei Entertainment, and will also work with the public relations department to solicit support from the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China, and at the same time exert influence on the senior and stubborn members of the award committee.
Some traditional and stubborn old members do have a huge influence, and they are more likely to be influenced by Zhou Yi's positive traditional songs.
And they are also willing to promote this kind of positive energy newcomers, which naturally has an effect.
Those songs that chirp crookedly and hum are often out of their sight.
This kind of TV drama song award selection is different from the professional music award selection, and the judges' styles are different.
These PR efforts have been ongoing.
With a professional like Ms. Meng Shaoguang in charge, there is naturally a lot of progress.
At least many judges will hear the songs composed by Zhou Yi with their own ears, and when they see the lyrics and scores with their own eyes, they are easily attracted.
Leave professional things to professionals, so you don't have to worry about it.
Zhou Yi is usually busy with learning and rehearsals, and he has to write a screenplay when he has time, and he may also make a cameo appearance in the "Ace" project, so he really can't take care of so many things. He doesn't have three heads and six arms, how can he take care of it. These things can only be asked by the company's professionals, which are specialized in the art industry.
Teamwork is the key to success.
As for the weekend box office of "Rushing to the Sky Tower", it has been very stable, and Zhou Yi also understands that it is affected by the National Day, and the good reputation on the Internet has indeed played a strong boosting role, and it has not been suppressed by the industry, so the single-day box office has been maintained at more than 40 million yuan.
This is a really good weekend result.
And the peripheral products are also frequent, which is quite unexpected by Zhou Yi.
