The popularity of the musical drama "Fanke" is inseparable from the strength of the entire creative team, the artistic director and chief screenwriter is the actor who has been nominated and even won a number of literary awards and screenwriting awards, the music consultant and chief conductor is the world's top ten conductor Pruss, and the stage and lighting are all the technical team of "To the Girl on My Bicycle", and the winners of the Tony Award for Best Set Design, Best Lighting Design Award and the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects and Best Art Direction are invited. The composers are emerging Chinese who have just won a series of important awards in Europe, and the orchestra invites two of the top five philharmonic orchestras in China to rotate...... Undoubtedly a big production.

The male lead actor Huang Luguang has always been a legend in the film industry, more than ten years ago, because of the fan's sentence "invincible in the world", he became the first male star of major beauty brands to invite endorsements, and for more than ten years, the drama has become less and less, and people have become more and more low-key, and even have not taken on a new play for several years, and suddenly took on a musical drama, and it is already a scary situation for his fans to grab tickets. In the first round of online pre-sales, hundreds of tickets were snatched up in 3 seconds, which directly led to the paralysis of the ticketing channel, and the daily traffic of swiping the screen to ask for tickets almost doubled the click data of the Chinese Grand Theater, the performance venue, in recent years.

The female lead is a professional actor with "zero negative reviews", who won the international film queen in her first work of debut, but she has been in the industry for more than ten years but "willfully" only accepts her favorite plays, the masses are not highly recognizable, and the reputation in the professional field is explosive.

What's more interesting is that the supporting actors have recruited several big names. First of all, the chief disciple of the Flying Empress, the new Flying Goddess Yu Yin, played the role of the imagery in the play, there were no lines in the whole process, and she only danced the Flying Dance all the time in the imaginary scene of the male and female protagonists - it is a "background board" symbol representing the image of Chinese culture.

There is also a supporting role in the play "Fanke" with a particularly special character design, that is, the pianist, who is not only the character in the play, but also the piano accompanist of the orchestra. The role of the pianist runs throughout the play, and almost all of the scenes on the stage are important plot transformation scenes, playing both Western romantic classical music and Oriental famous songs, with almost no lines in the whole process, but after the requirements for performance skills overlap with the character design, it is extremely difficult to find a matching actor. At the beginning, several partners were looking for people separately, all looking for powerful actors, but they found that it was really difficult to find a piano level from the actors to the level of holding a solo concert, so they changed their thinking and looked for those with performance talent from pianists.

Zou Jianfeng was the first to think of Zhang Meng: "Zhang Meng is famous enough, and he will make entertainment headlines the next day." The reality shows he has participated in in recent years, to put it bluntly, are they also according to the screenwriter's book? The acting should still be okay! ”

Tang Qingyou didn't think about it, and shook his head directly: "He wants to pop up another car accident scene, we have to bury him collectively!" ”

Zou Jianfeng also said casually at that time: "If you don't use Zhang Meng, then use Song Kai?" In the classical music circle, except for Zhang Meng is Song Kai, the king does not see the king. In recent years, Zhang Meng has become more and more unreliable, but Song Kai represents the face of China and has a growing reputation in the world. However, with Song Kai's current status in the industry, it's not good to please, right? ”

Tang Qingyou thought for a while: "You might as well give it a try." ”

Who would have thought that Song Kai had cooperated with major international symphony orchestras, so he and Pruss had many exchanges on the same stage, and the friendship was not bad. Tang Qingyou only mentioned it slightly, and Pruss invited Song Kai over by email.

At this point, under the supervision of the Chinese Grand Theatre and its headquarters, the crew of "Fanke" began to apply for subsidies from the local literary and artistic fund for two different versions from the Chinese Grand Theatre and Qiao Drama Center.

Tang Qingyou didn't seem to care about applying for subsidies, but Zou Jianfeng was much more active.

According to Zou Jianfeng, although "Fanke" is difficult to make a profit at a large cost, it is definitely a work of conscience, and it will definitely be able to earn word of mouth, and this play received an invitation from a famous European theater at the beginning of the rehearsal, which can be said to have won glory for the country. Besides, "Fanke" is a work that is really invited to go out and go to the market, but it is not an exchange performance, compared to those who go abroad to spend money to rent a venue for their own performances, and have to distribute their own tickets to organize the audience, I really don't know how many times better, and the reasons for applying for subsidies and support from the Literature and Art Fund are very sufficient.

The most important reason why he insisted was because winning the support of the Literature and Art Fund was an increase in honor, that is, it was recognized by the professional level and the industry, which would be helpful for future awards.

Tang Qingyou finally recognized Zou Jianfeng's consideration and handed over the matter of applying for local support to him.

It's just that Tang Qingyou didn't expect that in the end, the Qiao Drama Center still didn't get a penny of local recognition.

When Tang Qingyou got the news, he was studying vocal music with an old singer recommended by Zou Jianfeng.

Zou Jianfeng silently listened to her last half of the class, sent off the singer teacher, and then surrendered to Tang Qingyou: "Sister You, I'm sorry, I didn't apply for the support quota of the local literature and art fund." ”

Tang Qingyou didn't expect this income, nodded and began to comfort him: "It's okay, each flower has its own eyes, maybe this year's judges don't like our one." ”

Ni Huan'er on the side assisted Zou Jianfeng to run the whole process, and she couldn't know the inside story best, she couldn't sit still, and interjected directly: "Sister You, you don't know, our musical drama doesn't have a separate theme, you said that it's okay to include it in the drama, but we were included in the field of musicals, even if it was included in the category of musicals, the final competitor was actually the rehearsal version of "Chasing Love", and then, the winner turned out to be "Chasing Love"! is such a blind play, the first round hit the street, and it has to be rehearsed! And the city actually gave a large amount of support funds! We really ...... Incompetence in understanding. After speaking, he glanced at Zou Jianfeng.

Obviously, Zou Jianfeng's expression was almost written with the words "very hurt".

After thinking about it, Tang Qing thought of the crux of the matter, but did not express his opinion, but asked curiously: "You are all docking on the side of the competent department, and now the leader in charge of culture in the city is...... Mayor Zhang? ”

"Yes, Zhang Bingwen." Zou Jianfeng nodded.

"I watched the news a few days ago, and it seems that there are personnel adjustments again?" Tang Qingyou didn't remember it really, so he asked verifiably.

Zou Jianfeng nodded: "Well, I just got promoted to executive vice mayor." ”

Tang Qingyou whispered: "It's fast enough." ”

Zou Jianfeng looked at Tang Qingyou's face, chuckled and broke the news: "I heard that Ouyang Zhi was accepted as a goddaughter?" The leaders in the bureau often mention this, and the people who say it say that everyone knows about it, and then they say that Ouyang of the Nanshan Grand Theater is always Mayor Zhang's goddaughter and must be taken care of first...... This privilege is used for granted, and I don't even know how to talk to them. ”

"In the future, you and you should not get involved in this matter. When those people talk about this matter, you should be transparent people, and don't talk to them. Tang Qingyou reminded Zou Jianfeng and Ni Huan'er and said, "These people are really high-level black." ”

Zou Jianfeng nodded silently.

Ni Huan'er was full of resentment in his heart: "Sister You, I think, Ouyang Zhi's rehearsal of "Chasing Love" is clearly for us, I heard that Gu Nao was invited to be the leading actor." Although Gounod is a small flow of fresh meat, he can't bring a stage play! The foundation of his popularity in the local area was still pushed out when we did Wang Shu's project. Ouyang Zhi is doing this, and even the performance schedule basically overlaps with our "Fanke", and he is a resident performer! They're big theater musicals, we're small and medium-sized theater musicals, and we're losing a lot of conceptually. I heard that the city also gave all the public stall publicity of the performing arts channels during that time to "Chasing Love". I haven't confirmed this with the Performing Arts Association yet......"

"Let's check this first." Tang Qingyou interrupted Ni Huan'er's words, and immediately made arrangements, "You go and confirm immediately, the available acting promotion channels during the landing of our "Fanke"!" The public part is confirmed first, and then our own channels must be laid in advance. Mr. Zou, you follow up the statistics of marketing costs and box office revenue data in real time, and I want to know the latest data of this project at any time. ”

Zou saw that Ni Huan'er took the order and left, Tang Qingyou silently knocked on the table and thought for a long time, and then took the marketing plan of the "Fanke" project and the account book and flipped through it, secretly feeling bad in his heart, but he couldn't find the direction for a while. waited and waited, and waited for Ni Huaner's worse information: "Two months before the performance and during the performance, the city's performance information preview and publicity led by the Performing Arts Association, all the main pages were given to "Chasing Love", and our "Fanke" was not scheduled. I preliminarily asked the Providence Media on the radio and television side, the more important broadcasting and outdoor publicity, and quoted a sky-high price. Looks like someone is trying to deal with us? ”

Tang Qingyou didn't answer Zou Jianfeng, and directly activated the coping mechanism and directly dialed the first call to Li Chaoran.

As a partner, Li Chaoran inherited Minglan's workplace resources, and he has always been happy to cooperate with Tang Qingyou, and he has nothing to hide when he gets used to going straight, and directly said the truth: "Wen is always from radio and television, and he will do his best to complete it in radio and television." Now the city has given a large number of advertising prime time and public resources to the Nanshan Grand Theater for free to arrange the promotion of "Chasing Love", saying that it is to support local original works, and the next few months will be overwhelming. There are so many resources in total, such a large institution as radio and television, and thousands of people to raise, so you can't drink the northwest wind in the past few months, so you can only raise the price of the remaining operable resources to keep your basic income, Mr. Tang, I heard that the performance time of your "Fanke" overlaps with "Chasing Love"? I think you're choking enough, can you reschedule? ”

"Of course it can't be changed. The physical performance is not a movie screening, and the playback belt is in your hand, and you can arrange it to be broadcast on any day you want. Tang Qingyou absentmindedly replied to Li Chaoran and began to look for the next breakthrough.

Then, she found Zhan Peng, the first expert in the field of communication in the city: "Hello brother, my new project is the masterpiece of our alumni filmmaker, and the abridged version will be performed at the Qiao Drama Center in a few months, and I participated in the production of the project." But now I heard that it will be a little difficult for me to arrange publicity and promotion during the residency, can you help me mediate? ”

Zhanpeng and Zhanhong have been in a state of cold war for a long time, but the new son has integrated the relationship between the family, which made him also begin to reflect, during this time his energy has been put into the family, and he has not participated in the affairs of the rivers and lakes for some time. After all, it was the big leader who made a statement to support "Chasing Love" with the power of Allure, so don't make a mess. ”

Tang Qingyou hadn't been angry for a while, and he was angry at the moment: "Why? Our good project was just banned? ”

"It's just a matter of keeping a low profile. Where is it called blocking? If you want to ban your play, won't it be over if you don't give approval to the commercial performance? ”

Tang Qingyou's scalp suddenly went numb, and he stopped arguing, hung up the phone and hurriedly called Zou Jianfeng and Ni Huaner over to confirm the process of performance approval.

Sure enough, the approval of the commercial performance has not yet come down. The approval of commercial performances must be sent to the municipal bureau and then to the province through the district bureau, and if it is foreign-related, it must also be sent to the Ministry of Culture for final approval. Now that he is directly stuck in the district bureau for a month, there has been no movement, Zou Jianfeng and Ni Huan'er, two honest people, thought that it was just a matter of efficiency, and when they wanted to issue a ticket, they would naturally approve it. Where to expect all the things behind this?

"Sister You, will you be worried?" Zou Jianfeng has always felt that the management of all parties is becoming more and more transparent, and it is unlikely that there will be a big black hand.

However, Tang Qingyou had encountered a lot of things after all, so he had to be cautious and prepare for the worst, so he took the first step to express his request for help to the actor and the Chinese Grand Theater.

Tang Qingyou knows very well that after all, the shadow boy is a person who speaks by strength, and the background brought by strength is often the most reliable.

The two headquarters of the Chinese Grand Theater and Huayi Cinema Line have been transferred, and through the top-down relationship, Tang Qingyou took precautions to urge the approval document out and ensure the ticketing time.

The rest is the promotion of self-reliance.

Since at the same time, the whole city is the picture of "Chasing Love", then "Fanke" can only be hard-hitting.
