Chapter 244: I Want to Be a Kidnapper
Kleist Culture Media Company has been confused by a very dignified atmosphere since June 18.
It's not because they don't have a dollar to grab a mobile phone and computer.
It's that "Peace in the North" has finally been released.
Five-star simulcast, eight o'clock in the evening.
Become one of the hottest episodes of the moment.
However, the response after the release was not very projective, and the ratings of the five satellite TVs failed to break one.
Five-star simulcasts do affect the calculation of total ratings - in fact, who counts whom, it is impossible for five TV stations to add up to one.
It's not as good as the hit "Ancient Sword", nor is it as controversial as the Xiaolongbao version of "The Condor Heroes", let alone the turbulent "The Legend of Mei Niang", which is really out of reach.
Of course, when I watched "Yang Guifei", which also starred Miss Fan Xuexue, next year, people would know what it means to be stormy.
I realized that not only can it be in the car, but why not.
In ancient times, there were no cars, so wouldn't it be shocking?
Don't underestimate the creativity of primates, if there are difficulties, they will be shocked, and if there is no difficulty, they will be shocked.
"Isn't this normal, this kind of drama, what to compare with costume dramas." Lin Dong disagreed.
A large portion of the audience attracted by this TV series is male viewers over the age of 35, or even older, and at the same time, the subject matter and narrative of "Peace in the North" also determine its "niche" aspect.
"Hehe, you didn't scold me."
This is more important to him than the quality of the ratings.
Playing with a bunch of actors, Lin Dong is most afraid of not that this TV series has a bad reputation - that is impossible.
Basically, Liu Heyang wrote.
Who is Liu Heyang?
That's a superboss in the screenwriter's circle.
The director is Kong Di Li Yun, and the two guys are very good at being directors, and even those actors can be convinced.
And the people who participate, even if they are supporting roles, can take the lead in other dramas.
Chen Jingqi, Ni Jianhong, and Wang Jiakang will not talk about this generation.
When it comes to old drama bones, they must come to mind.
Let's just talk about the two new actors.
One is Lin Dong.
won the Best New Actor at the Venice International Film Festival last year, and at the age of 22, he has already become a benchmark for the new generation of acting schools.
If you talk about who has acting skills.
Then others will ask how he is doing with Lin Dongbi.
There is also Liao Ping.
He won an award in February this year, called "Best Actor at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival".
What is this?
This is the Berlin actor.
He is the first Berlin actor in China.
The gold content is quite high, one or two points stronger than the actors of the Venice International Film Festival.
Script, director, lineup, funding, a drama with everything in place.
At the beginning, the ratings were low, and it can only be said that Liu Heyang's dramas are so slow, just wait.
Besides, the five star-rated TV stations bought the broadcast rights, and they are not blind.
Therefore, Lin Dong let everyone not have to be anxious at all.
No matter what the ratings are, it will not affect the delivery of the final payment of the TV station, a TV series will earn 80 million, and what kind of bicycle do you need.
You don't know how much my heart hurts.
The heartache Lin Dong waited for "The Strongest Opponent" first, and the other one is not a private company, don't expect how efficient it is.
Just researching whether or not to accept your investment may take a few days to meet.
After the research is out, you may have to write a report on the process.
The director of "The Strongest Opponent" is Ding Sheng, who directed Fang Long's "New Police Story" last year, with a box office of more than 500 million, which belongs to the more successful category of directors.
The reason why this movie is not favored is because it is based on real events.
The degree of restoration is more than 70%.
That's not interesting.
Although sometimes reality is more bizarre than the movie, if you really shoot according to reality, it is difficult to guarantee the commerciality of the movie.
Those so-called adaptations of real events.
You can't focus on real events, you have to focus on adaptation.
Ding Sheng said, I will shoot according to the real thing.
So no one gave him money, and even Fang Long, who was standing behind him, was unwilling to take the money.
Until I received a call from Kleist Culture Media.
Bring money into the group!
Kleist made a condition at the beginning, you have to give us an important role.
This kind of thing is commonplace in the entertainment industry.
Without saying anything, taking the money directly makes people feel unsure.
"I don't know which one of your companies wants to participate in this movie, starring Mr. Wu, I have already decided on Mr. Liu Furong here." Ding Sheng's ugly words were put forward first.
"Why isn't it Mr. Wu, the prototype, isn't he an actor himself, isn't it good to act directly?" Shi Shanshan asked.
"Although he agreed to participate, he was only willing to play a police officer, which was too painful for him at the time, and he really didn't want to repeat that experience."
"Teacher Liu Furong, he seems to invest in film and television dramas, why don't you let him invest?"
"He actually has this idea, if he really can't raise money, we will wait, and when he has the funds to turn over, he will help invest a little, but he can't invest so much."
"We agreed in principle to invest in your film, and we don't know which role you will be able to offer."
"Who's going to star, you haven't told me yet."
"Lin Dong."
"Why don't you call it over and talk about it together."
This director Ding Sheng obviously belongs to people who are not so well-informed.
Otherwise, Su Hao's incident spread all over the upper circles of the entertainment industry a few days ago, and I didn't see him know, if he knew, he wouldn't have called Mr. Lin over.
Lin Dong really doesn't have any.
Directly with a thermos cup came over, the brew in it is not wolfberry, it is tea, the best tea, Gangzi bought it from a WeChat friend.
"Hello Mr. Ding."
"Hello Mr. Lin Dong."
After chatting awkwardly, Ding Sheng said very bluntly: "I'm still worried about who will participate in the show, knowing that it is Teacher Lin Dong, I am immediately relieved." ”‘
"You've won a prize."
Lin Dong understood what he meant.
As a director, I am most afraid of stuffing actors who don't have any acting skills, but those who can only enter the group by "stuffing" are that kind of goods.
There are too many such things in a drama, and no matter how big the director's ability is, it is useless.
In the end, he usually takes the money and leaves after filming quickly, and goes to find the next project, as for the filmed drama, he can't help it, it's obviously something with no acting skills, is it difficult for the director to pass on his credit.
And Lin Dong is an actor with acting skills.
It's not called a stopper.
It's called joining.
"How about playing a policeman, the captain of the criminal investigation team, it can be regarded as the second most important role in this drama."
Mr. Wu, who was kidnapped, had already decided Liu Furong, so naturally he couldn't give it to Lin Dong, and Lin Dong was too young to play that feeling.
Shi Shanshan looked at Lin Dong.
If Lin Dong is not there, she can help Lin Dong agree, there are only a few roles in this play, and the captain of the criminal investigation team is very good.
But Lin Dong is here.
A smart subordinate never makes decisions for his boss.
"I've studied that case, and I prefer the kidnapper role, and the criminal investigation captain is not interesting."
