Chapter 329: Determination of Roles

Sixty million is not enough, do you have to add more?

In the office, everyone looked at Li Youwei with a shocked look.

Especially those colleagues in the film and television department.

They want to say, where do we get the money to add more?

The headquarters only approved 50 million for them, and the extra 10 million was still paid by Li You for himself, and no more would be left.......

On the contrary, it was Chen Ming, who rubbed his chin thoughtfully and thought for a moment.

"I really need to add more!"

Really plus?!

In an instant, everyone's eyes turned from Li Youwei to Chen Ming, this is 60 million, not 6,000 yuan, even if it is a TV series, it should be completely enough.

At this moment, Zheng Rong felt that he should say something.

Immediately, Zheng Rong coughed a few times and asked softly: "Chen Ming, how many episodes do you plan to shoot in this "The Legend of Sword and Fairy I"?" ”

Chen Ming did not hesitate at all: "It is expected to be 34 episodes." ”

To be honest, Chen Mingyou wanted to modify the tragic ending of Xianjian Yi, but after thinking about it for a long time, he found that his imagination was limited and he couldn't think of a better ending, so he simply didn't change it, and still planned to use the ending of the original play.

Hearing this, Zheng Rong thought for a moment and said: "If there are 34 episodes, it should not take 60 million to shoot according to the duration of one hour per episode." ”

Zheng Rong has not had much contact with the film and television industry, so he doesn't know much about the costs.

Seeing this, Li Youwei opened his mouth to explain: "The scene layout and actors' salaries for each episode are calculated separately, and they will be settled once after filming an episode, and this kind of Xianxia drama, special effects rendering will basically be used in each episode, we don't have many special effects teams here in Zhongzhou, we need to ask from Dongzhou, this money is not cheap." ”

Among the people present, only Li Youwei and his colleagues in the film and television department probably knew how much money each episode would cost.

Frankly,

The set up is the lowest percentage of the budget.

And the actors' salaries and the rendering of special effects are the most money-burning places in this Xianxia drama.

especially

Chen Ming plans to invite some big-name star lineups this time, so that the salaries of these actors will definitely not be low.

Li Youwei also thought of this, so he asked if he wanted to add money.

If it is an ordinary urban TV series, then 60 million is definitely enough, and you can even get a lot richer.

But costume fantasy and costume fairy are definitely not enough!

After watching the play

root

Li Youwei had no intention of changing the script at all.

Judging from the plot of the first ten episodes alone, it can be seen that Chen Ming is laying out a particularly large Xianxia world, and once this world is structured, it can be filmed in the future.

The first part is just the beginning!

In this world,

The growth path of each character can be taken out separately and filmed in detail.

No wonder!

No wonder Chen Ming planned to make a series of TV series from the beginning.

It turned out that he had already made a plan in his heart.

Li Youwei looked at Chen Ming: "My suggestion is to take an internal test shot first to see the effect." What do you mean? ”

In the first ten episodes of the plot of Xianjian Yi, most of the important characters of Xianjian Yi appeared, and in the first four episodes, Li Xiaoyao and Ling'er were full.

In the second episode, Anu appeared and Jiujian Xian appeared.

In the fourth episode, I met Zhuangyuanlang, Liu Jinyuan.

In the fifth episode, Lin Yueru, an important supporting actress, appeared.

In the sixth episode, Elder Shi appeared.

In the seventh episode, Tang Yu Xiaobao appeared.

So far

Basically, all the positive characters in the play have appeared, of course, the most impressive one in the fairy sword one, there is another one, that is our "scientist", the moon worship master.

In other words, in the first ten episodes of the plot written by Chen Ming, it is basically possible to start preparing for the agreement of the characters.

Chen Ming nodded: "There is no problem with the test shooting, and when the role is confirmed, you can start." ”

"You're a screenwriter, do you have any ideas for the selection of characters?"

Li Youwei asked.

Moment

Many people present stared directly at Chen Ming.

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Fan are both rushing to this TV series, and they definitely hope to be able to play some roles in it.

There are not many female characters in the play.

at least

At present, it seems that there are only three female characters: Ling'er, Lin Yueru and Anu.

Chen Ming thought for a moment and looked at Jia Mi: "You come and try the role of Anu." ”

originally

When Chen Ming saw Jia Mi for the first time, this thought flashed through his mind.

Jami and Anu are so similar!

originally

In Chen Ming's plan, Xianjianyi's shooting was further aback, but after meeting Jia Mi, Chen Ming began to try to advance Xianjianyi's shooting.

Hearing this, Jia Mi nodded excitedly.

This is an affirmation from Chen Ming!

"Lin Yueru's role, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Fan are quite suitable, I can't decide, you two can discuss with Minister Li when the time comes."

Xiao Xuan's external image is better than Xiao Fan's.

But Xiao Fan's personality is very similar to Lin Yueru.

The audience of the good-looking party prefers Xiao Xuan a little; The audience of the original party prefers Xiao Fan a little.

Of course

There is no original work of Xianjian Yi in this world, so in the absence of a reference sample, Chen Ming is actually more inclined to choose Xiao Xuan.

As for Sun Qingxuan, Chen Ming reserved a role for her.

That is Ling'er's mother, the descendant of the previous Nuwa.

There is also a female basilisk character in the mid-to-late game.

Back then,

Jiang Ming, the most talented disciple of the Shushan Sword Sect, fell in love with a fox demon in the process of going down the mountain to practice, and brought the fox demon back to Shushan.

Shemales have different paths!

What's more, Jiang Ming assumes the position of the future head of Shushan, and has the hope of becoming an immortal.

In desperation,

Jiang Ming took the fox demon and hid in the lock demon tower.

This plot is very shocking, Chen Ming is very clear about this plot, and he doesn't need to think about it at all.

Let's see who gets the role of Lin Yueru between Xiao Xuan and Xiao Fan in the end.

The one left can give her a try on the role of this bassilis.

The roles of Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru are naturally played by Chen Ming and Su Roulai.

If nothing else,

Chen Ming and Su Rou's acting skills are very worthy of recognition.

For other characters, Chen Ming has no ideas for the time being.

As for the casting, Li Youwei will be in charge.

Li Youwei nodded: "Okay, I'll screen the list of suitable actors, if you don't have time to interview, I'll be responsible for the whole process." ”

Chen Ming has no opinion.

At last

A group of people chatted about filming again, and Chen Ming left Xingyu Entertainment alone.

Tomorrow

Chen Ming also has to participate in the competition of "A Show of Singing Voice".

So

It's good to let others worry about the rest, he needs to take care of the variety show in front of him first.

If nothing else, the test shooting of Xianjian Yi will start in August.

At that time,

The competition of "A Show Your Singing Voice" should also be coming to an end.
