Chapter 68: Joining hands with Gryphon Media
"〞The fastest update, no pop-ups!
Talking and talking, Zhou Yi remembered one more thing.
Now it is necessary to hire a more professional dance and choreography teacher for Tang Yan to conduct special training for her before filming, after all, there are many dance and dance scenes in this TV series, and there are also ** scenes in dance competitions, which have high requirements for dance.
If you want to attract a young audience who likes to chase the latest trends, girls' dancing is a top priority.
The various choreography in the play must be novel and difficult. If you want the ratings to explode, this is very important!
Like the national arts competition and some action scenes, the company's director Huang Huacheng can handle it, and with the help of the martial arts team, Zhou Yi himself is very professional, these are no problem. But in terms of dance, you must ask a professional choreographer to choreograph. Tang Yan is indeed very good at dancing, but she is still young, and she definitely doesn't have the ability to choreograph, so she can't let herself mess around.
In fact, Zhou Yi felt that the dances performed by Yang Liping, Yang Yang and others in his previous life were very good, but he practiced Chinese arts, and asked him to list those dance moves in his memory, not that he couldn't do it, there was no problem in difficulty, but he lacked some details and temperament, and he really didn't know how to choreograph, so it was better to find a professional master to design, and then he could mention it.
In this regard, it is necessary to believe in the level of professionals in this world.
Zhou Yi is not a perfect person, and cooperating with professional masters is the right way.
It would be a joke to let him guide his sister in the details of various dance performances by himself.
In this regard, he is not as good as Tang Yan's level!
If this drama can do a good job in both national arts and dance, martial arts and dance, plus the boys pretend to be cool and handsome, and the girls tear up the battle, shoot the playful effect of the youth campus palace fight, supplemented by various professional ring competitions. Applying the online novel competition to upgrade the flow and pretend to be forced to slap the face, the male and female protagonists counterattacked all the way, beating the rich and handsome, and crushing the tsundere girl, basically this TV series is more than half of the success, and the rest depends on the professional acting skills of the actors and the overall level. Absolute success is expected, and victory is in sight.
Zhuo Qinglian agreed with Zhou Yi's ideas.
She is also very concerned about this TV series, after all, this is the first large-scale TV series to be filmed since the company's acquisition, and it must be taken seriously. If this is done well, the company can also make a lot of money and expand the influence of the industry. As a second-tier film and television production company. It is impossible to completely ignore the TV drama industry, which is also a very profitable industry.
In order to make the best effect of this TV series, it is imperative to hire a professional choreographer for Tang Yan.
What's more, the dances of other girls, whether they are solo dances or group dances, whether they are performances or competitions. It also needs to be carefully choreographed, and it must be done by professionals behind the scenes. Compared to the performers in front of the stage. These behind-the-scenes masters are even more important and cannot be ignored.
In this regard, the company should do its best to make the choreographer in place after the college entrance examination and enter the working state as soon as possible.
And if you want to please, please invite professional masters, and never waste your reputation.
The selection will be decided by the company's senior management. That's certainly fine.
Zhou Yi naturally has no opinion.
After discussing for a while, Zhou Yi simply stayed at the company's headquarters and learned some specific situations by the way.
Now the company's progress is going smoothly and there is no problem.
As for the screenwriters, because they just got the script of the TV series. At present, he is a little tired physically and mentally, Zhuo Qinglian gave them a holiday, let them have a good rest. Zhou Yi naturally can't toss them back again, and he can discuss the movie script again on the weekend.
Regarding the script, Zhou Yi talked to Zhuo Qinglian in detail, so that she could have a general understanding.
Zhuo Qinglian has already read the script of "Chongxiao Tower" in detail, and he already knows the plot very well.
Hearing Zhou Yi say this, she pondered it carefully and immediately praised: "Ah Yi, I think your change is indeed much better than the original script." In fact, the original script is also good, but it always feels a little bland, not as sharp and sharp as "Five Poisons", but if you change it like this, it's no problem. Not only is the play more exciting, but the literary drama increases the depth of the performance, which is really good. ”
"Sister Zhuo said this, I was relieved."
Zhou Yi was very pleased to be recognized by Zhuo Qinglian, and he was indeed more assured.
"Ah Yi, I started to think that there was no suitable role for you in this play. If you play Bai Yutang, you will die in the middle, and you will not have the opportunity to play brilliantly. If you play those thugs, like Flower Butterfly and God Hand Great Sage, it seems too ordinary, and the age is not appropriate. Cheng Dakui plays those roles better. But if you change it like this, I found that the role of Zhao Jue, the king of Xiangyang, is really suitable for you, Yunwen Yunwu, literary opera and martial arts can be very brilliant, if you play it well, you will really become famous and lay a solid foundation, at least stronger than the role of the little junior brother of the Five Poison Sect. It's a role that's just tailored for you. ”
Zhuo Qinglian is naturally very discerning and can see Zhou Yi's deep-seated intentions.
It's easy to talk to smart people!
"Haha! Sister Zhuo, that's what I think! Our heroes and heroes see things the same way. Zhou Yi smiled.
"You little guy......" Zhuo Qinglian also smiled, rubbing Zhou Yi's head affectionately.
"Ah Yi, I understand what you mean. Later, I will summarize the script of "Rushing to the Sky" and your opinions, and convey them to our screenwriters, so that they can take a look at it first and think about how to revise it appropriately. I estimate that you are busy with the college entrance examination during this time, and you have to pay attention to the movies that will be released, and you can't calm down to adapt the script, so let the screenwriters of the company do it for you! Their level is sufficient, they are fully competent, and this is their job. Zhuo Qinglian said.
"Then please ask Sister Zhuo to help me deal with it!" This is exactly the purpose of Zhou Yi. Sister and brother coincide.
"Wait until the weekend and everyone gets together again and discusses, and it should be fine. At present, Director Zhao is still in the studio, studying the script. I'll help you inform, after all, the plot changes, and the director must be kept aware. Zhuo Qinglian added.
"That's nature." Zhou Yi nodded in agreement.
"It is estimated that Director Zhao will also be very happy. Such a plot change, even I think it's very exciting. Zhuo Qinglian smiled.
"Haha! I hope Director Zhao can be satisfied! ”
Between jokes, time passed like this.
In the afternoon, Manager Zheng finally finished his business and rushed back to the company.
There are some things, he will naturally come over to inform Zhuo Qinglian.
Their work over there is also very smooth.
Said next weekend. It is possible that the peripheral toy products related to Zhengdong Pictures' "Five Poison Gate" will be sold online, not only in various peripheral professional stores, but also on online platforms, and various theaters will naturally distribute the goods.
Zhou Yi was very happy and felt that it had been going well recently.
Manager Zheng is worthy of being a business veteran, and these businesses are handled in an orderly manner.
Zhou Yi and Zhuo Qinglian took the opportunity to mention the preparations for the TV series to Manager Zheng. He talked about the various difficulties he is currently facing.
Manager Zheng frowned, thought about it, and then had an idea.
"Actually, this matter is not difficult to solve."
"Oh? What does Manager Zheng want to do? ”
"With the current strength of our company, there is really no way to expand too fast, and it is not appropriate to expand too fast. Things have to be done little by little, work has to be done one by one, and if you want to make great strides, or even play triple jump, that's not okay. ”
Zhou Yi and Zhuo Qinglian both nodded. Agree.
"Opening several dramas at the same time is indeed a lot of pressure for our company, but it doesn't mean that we can't do it. In fact, we can borrow chickens to lay eggs, just like looking for a pregnant woman to surrogate, it's the same reason! ”
"Who are we looking for?" Zhou Yi asked.
"Last time, Producer Zhang from Gryphon Media came to our test screening and mentioned that their boss was looking for a quality investment project."
"Oh?"
"The relationship between the two of us has always been okay, and we have had personal business contacts before. Producer Zhang also said that he knows the boss, you! ”
Manager Zheng mentioned it in passing.
Zhou Yi nodded and said, "That's right." When filming "Five Poison Gate". We had a relationship with Huairou Film and Television City, and the Taj Cinemas was still mentioned to me by him. He seems to have a lot of connections in the circle. ”
"That's true. Producer Zhang has always been exquisite. Manager Zheng said. In that case, it would be good. We can talk to them. ”
"Pull them in?" Zhuo Qinglian asked.
"I think we can get them to invest, after all, we are still under a lot of financial pressure to shoot such a 40-episode large-scale TV series, especially during the summer vacation, we have to continue to make movies. is also facing investment pressure, after all, the actors' salaries are rising, and the production cost of the film will definitely rise a lot, no matter how small the cost, the investment amount will also rise by a notch. ”
Zhou Yi and Zhuo Qinglian nodded again and again. This situation has been foreseen for a long time.
"As for relying on the box office revenue and peripheral income of "Five Poisons" to recoup funds, it always takes a certain period of time, and it is not in a hurry. If you are in too much of a hurry, you will definitely lose a sum of money, which is not good. But we can't wait for the funds to come back and then invest in filming. Although our company is still relatively generous on the books, we must always set aside enough liquidity for emergencies. Manager Zheng continued.
"In this way, it was the ideal choice for us to bring in a partner. This not only saves us our own working capital, but also allows us to borrow the director and some of the actors, as well as the crew members behind the scenes, from them, which can reduce a lot of pressure on us. It doesn't matter if you share part of the benefits, there are so many high-quality projects in the industry, and it is impossible to make all the money yourself, and sometimes it is a good way to borrow chickens and eggs. ”
"That's just as well! Manager Zheng is right! ”
"It's great to be able to win-win."
Zhou Yi and Zhuo Qinglian agreed.
Zhou Yi doesn't mind sharing benefits with others, as long as the other party is willing to pay. Like the Great Wall in the past, he secretly made stumbling blocks, and deliberately tried to suppress and bloodletting, and he would never accompany him. As long as it is a reasonable sharing of benefits, he can accept it. As Manager Zheng said, the money is endless, and there is no need to put it all in your own bowl, it is impossible.
Nowadays, whether it is a movie or a TV series, co-production is king.
In this way, we can not only save money, but also share risks, and can also communicate with each other, share channels, and save a lot of things. If you do everything on your own, there will be a lot of trouble and inconvenience, and the ability to resist risks will be even worse.
Even if there is no loss of profit, but the cost of extra time, it is the same.
In fact, as long as it does not involve the core interests of one's own family, such as works like "Military Commander's Secret Service", other works can be cooperated for a win-win situation, and it has nothing to do with it. Zhou Yi wants to shoot too many works, if he only relies on his own shooting, how can he shoot it? No matter how hard you try to expand. There are not enough manpower, and when you expand to the limit, you will always encounter bottlenecks, and indeed cooperation is king. Even in Zhou Yi's eyes, even a project like "Huang Feihong" is not impossible to cooperate. Only "Military Commander Secret Service" is an exception!
Manager Zheng continued to explain: "Now we have a project. Shortage of manpower. They have manpower and a shortage of suitable investment projects. Boss Huang of Griffin has also been looking for high-quality projects in the industry. We can complement each other's advantages and cooperate for a win-win situation, and we absolutely hit it off. I think they are definitely willing to borrow directors and actors, after all, whose drama is not filmed! ”
"Manager Zheng, I think you also understand the purpose of my filming. As long as I can achieve my goal, it doesn't matter how much I cooperate. ”
Zhou Yi naturally wanted to remind him.
"Boss, don't worry! I see what you mean. "What kind of character is Manager Zheng. Of course I do.
"But this matter can't be rushed, fortunately, there is still plenty of time. I'll take care of the operation! When Manager Yan comes back, I will talk to them and discuss the details of cooperation, but hòu we will do this, and there is no problem with keeping. ”
"That's great." Zhou Yi nodded happily.
"Actually, they griffons have good directors for TV series. At that time, we will first determine the director, let him prepare the crew, and gather behind the scenes. The actors are mainly provided by our company. If you really can't provide it, let them find a way. They also have actors. Manager Zheng said.
Zhou Yi and Zhuo Qinglian naturally agreed.
"It is estimated that before the college entrance examination, how can the TV drama crew be prepared. I'm trying to get everyone to meet and talk about it. In addition, Director Zhao also has to prepare a new crew, and when the release is done during this time, it is estimated that the new film will start filming again. Let's also have a meeting to discuss. ”
"I'll just look at the weekend, let's have a meeting together." Zhuo Qinglian built yì road.
"No problem. Absolutely. Manager Zheng agreed.
Zhou Yi was very satisfied.
Things are really busy now, and everyone is a little too busy, but fortunately, the experienced Manager Zheng is at the helm, and there is no problem for the time being.
Just do what Manager Zheng said!
Hiring a professional dance teacher for Tang Yan. As long as the candidates can be in place after the college entrance examination.
In this regard, Manager Zheng plans to talk to Director Rong and let Rong Lao do it, and he must be concerned about it. Rong Lao's old friend Su Jian, isn't he a professor at the Central Conservatory of Music? When the time comes, find a professor from a neighboring dance school and introduce relevant talents, it is a trivial matter, and it is not difficult to do.
Things are settled in this way for the time being.
With Manager Zheng in charge of coordinating the overall situation, Zhou Yi can indeed rest assured.
Next, there was nothing to do in the company, so Zhou Yi returned to Xuexiào, and has been accompanying his sister to study Xiào, studying the details of the TV drama script. As for things like changes in the plot of the movie script, Zhuo Qinglian will help Zhou Yi deal with it, so he doesn't have to worry about it.
In the evening, Director Zhao also called Zhou Yi and communicated with him about the details of the plot change.
It can be heard that Director Zhao is very satisfied with such a plot change.
In fact, Director Zhao and Zhuo Qinglian's views are very similar. He originally wanted to make some drastic adjustments to the plot of "Rushing to the Sky" to make it more in line with the trend of the times and closer to the appreciation habits of today's mainstream audiences.
Every successful director who can gain a foothold in the industry must have his own unique ideas, which is normal, and it is impossible to simply be the echo worm of the company boss. The kind of director who has no personality will not succeed in the industry.
Director Zhao obviously has real skills, and it would be biased to think that he is only good at sycophants because he always wants to make the boss popular. That can only show that Director Zhao is exquisite, and he understands the world very well.
But on the issue of working principles, he also has his own insistence.
Now Zhou Yi's wonderful changes are in line with Director Zhao's intentions. The two sides had an in-depth exchange, and Director Zhao was even more satisfied.
Zhou Yi's changes to the plot are not only exciting, but also reasonable. However, the electric huà does not say in detail, everyone still has to have an interview. On the weekend, we will hold a preliminary preparation meeting for the crew to discuss in more detail. This is what Director Zhao meant.
As for the screenwriters, Director Zhao said that Zhuo Qinglian had already informed them, and he himself would communicate with the screenwriters in a timely manner, so there would be no need to trouble Zhou Yi in this regard, so that he could prepare for the college entrance examination with peace of mind, so that it would be fine.
Dealing with things like this, Zhou Yi really felt very relaxed.
Now he just needs to be patient.
