Chapter 331: New Theme TV Drama Project

"Fang Xing, the cultural industry should promote more mainstream values, rather than blind entertainment, don't you say?"

Liu Jian'an led Fang Xing to visit the completed project of Ningyun District Cultural Industrial Park, during which he did not give a definite statement on the project of the 2 billion headquarters building of Ark Culture.

After visiting the cultural industry park, Liu Jian'an began to talk about the core values of the cultural industry.

Fang Xing knew very well that if he wanted to get the favor of this Ning Yun leader and enter the Cultural Industry Park, in terms of the output of cultural content, blind entertainment would definitely not work.

"Of course, what Secretary Liu said is."

Liu Jian'an put on a vague smile and said, "Actually, I like young people like you very much. I have also seen your performance, and the "Song of the Seven Sons" in the Spring Festival Gala is the reason why I personally took you to visit the industrial park. ”

In terms of cultural content output, Fang Xing did sing "Song of the Seven Sons" and "Men Should Be Self-Improvement", songs that praise the integrity and backbone of the nation.

If there was no "Song of the Seven Sons", in fact, Liu Jian'an would not have come over in person today.

Accompany the CEO of a cultural enterprise to visit the industrial park, and there is no need for the top leader of Ningyun District to come in person.

However, because the songs that Fang Xing sang were very in line with the national culture that Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park wanted to promote, Liu Jian'an attached great importance to it, so this is why we met today.

"I see, Secretary Liu has worked hard." Fang Xing didn't expect that there would be this stubble before.

"In terms of your singing, the leaders of our district are very appreciative, but in terms of film and television dramas, they also need to be improved. "Wulin Gaiden" is full of praise, but it is not enough to promote the national spirit. Liu Jian'an nodded.

"What does the secretary mean?" As soon as Fang Xing heard it, he knew that there was something else going on.

"Next year will commemorate the 75th anniversary of the victory of the anti-aggression war, and the State Administration of Culture advocates the filming of more film and television dramas that promote the national spirit during the war era, have you heard of this?" Liu Jian'an took the initiative to bring up the matter.

In fact.

Regarding this matter, Fang Xing actually heard a little.

This matter has started since the beginning of the year, and many film and television companies are preparing related film and television dramas for next year's 75th anniversary.

This is not mandatory, but it is advocated at the national level.

If you want to walk this road steadily, it is important to keep up with the pace of the country.

Fang Xing nodded and replied, "I've heard a little, what does the secretary mean?" If I make a film and television drama with a related theme, the industrial park will grant me 2 billion project land? ”

Liu Jian'an nodded Fang Xing with his finger and smiled: "The young man is really direct when he speaks. I like this straightforward way of doing things, though.

"The district has studied it, first let Ark Culture settle in the Cultural Industry Park, and how big the project is still to be studied.

"At the same time, it also depends on your follow-up performance, next year's gift for the 75th anniversary of the victory of the anti-aggression war is a good opportunity, you might as well give it a try."

Fang Xing thought for a moment and asked, "What does the secretary mean, make a film that the audience likes to watch?" Or don't care about the audience's preferences? ”

Film and television dramas with the theme of anti-aggression war like this have different shooting directions.

Liu Jian'an pondered for a moment and replied: "Naturally, the audience likes to watch it, if the audience doesn't like to watch it, who should the national spirit be promoted to?" ”

Fang Xing nodded and replied, "Understood." ”

……

After chatting with Liu Jian'an, Ark Culture always settled in Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park.

Of course, at present, it is only a nominal move, and the company's headquarters will not be relocated immediately.

After all, Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park is still in the planning and construction stage, and the Ark Cultural Headquarters Building, which plans to invest 2 billion, has not even had a shadow, so it is only nominally settled in the industrial park.

To put it simply, in the film and television dramas produced in the future, there will be relevant units of Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park in the acknowledgement list at the end of the film.

Although the 2 billion Ark Cultural Headquarters Building project has not yet started, Fang Xing has already taken the line of the leader of Ningyun District.

Of course, this line is not solid at the moment, and more strength needs to be shown.

After Ark Culture settled in Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park, it was considered to have obtained half a talisman, and those ugly capitals, if they want to stretch their claws again, they must first weigh it.

……

After returning to the company, Fang Xing asked people to inquire about the cultural export of the 75th anniversary of the victory of the anti-aggression war next year.

The next morning, a meeting was held at the company to discuss the matter.

meeting.

"Boss, about the 75th anniversary of the victory of the anti-aggression war, there have indeed been rumors since the beginning of the year......

Qiao Yinghong first said the news she heard: "I asked a few acquaintances in the film and television industry, and the State Administration of Culture does advocate the cultural industry and promote the national spirit."

Therefore, many film and television companies in the circle have prepared film and television dramas with related themes.

"However, the degree of attention is different, some companies regard the theme of anti-aggression war as an important project, and some companies are making a show, ready to shoot something casually and show their attitude.

"I focused on checking, about the news of Rhett Film and Television, the boss should want to know the most."

The first and second largest shareholders of Ruide Film and Television are Pengcheng Capital and Dingsheng Capital.

These two capital companies are already old rivals.

Fang Xing asked curiously: "They are also preparing film and television dramas with the theme of anti-aggression war?" ”

"Yes, and the investment is not small, in addition to the male protagonist is the red little fresh meat Xiao Lunsheng, the female protagonist is also a new flower. The rest of the cast is also very strong, with a total investment of 150 million, which is already a top production in the theme of anti-aggression war. Qiao Yinghong replied.

TV series with the theme of anti-aggression war are already a very mature genre.

This type of TV series has a very fixed audience group, and as long as it is filmed, there are basically viewers to watch it.

This also leads to the unevenness of this type of drama.

Among them, there are many thunder dramas with thunder and thunder.

Usually this type of drama can be filmed with B-level investment.

With an investment of more than 100 million, it is a top-level production.

The 150 million anti-aggression war drama invested by Rhett Film and Television this time is the top of the top.

Fang Xing then asked: "What about Rad's film and television?" What other film and television companies have A-level or higher projects? ”

Qiao Yinghong picked up a form and said: "There is "Hidden Spy" with 80 million investment from Jade Bird Media, "Unsung Hero" with 120 million investment from Tianlong Film and Television, and ......"

She said a series of film and television projects, and the investment is basically between 60 million and 100 million.

A project of more than 100 million is indeed a big project.

When she went to visit the Ningyun District Cultural Industry Park that day, Qiao Yinghong also went, so she knew that the gift for the 75th anniversary of the victory of the anti-aggression war was very important.

When he visited the industrial park that day, although Liu Jian'an only mentioned this matter casually, he mentioned it himself, and if he thought it was casually talking, it would be really stupid.

After Qiao Yinghong reported on the big investments of major companies in the film and television industry, she asked: "Boss, are we going to prepare a film and television drama with the theme of anti-aggression war?" ”

Fang Xing nodded slowly: "Filming is definitely going to be filmed, it depends on what kind of film you want to shoot." ”

Qiao Yinghong analyzed the limitations of other film and television companies: "Judging from the projects prepared by major film and television companies, half of them are battles, and the other half are spy wars.

"These two themes have a relatively good audience base, and as long as they can be broadcast on the stars, they will basically not lose."

Guo Keda interjected: "Brother Fang, we haven't filmed a drama with this theme." If you start preparing now, the time is very tight, and the script is also a big problem.

"I heard that just because many film and television companies are preparing film and television dramas with the theme of anti-aggression war, various companies are collecting scripts, and it is difficult to receive the current type of script."

Film and television companies want to prepare a drama, at the beginning, they first set the theme, and then start to receive the script.

If there is no ready-made one, the film and television company will even ask a more famous screenwriter team to customize a script.

Now, in the film and television industry, dozens of companies are preparing TV series with the theme of anti-aggression war, and good scripts have long been bought by large companies.

Even the more well-known screenwriting teams are writing custom scripts.

Now if you want to receive the script, it is really difficult to be satisfied.

Fang Xing guessed this situation early in the morning and said, "I have also considered this. A TV series with this theme will definitely be filmed, regardless of the script first, the crew's preliminary preparations will be arranged this week. ”

Qiao Yinghong then asked, "Boss, are we going to shoot the battle type?" Or is it a spy war type? Or some other type of subject? When preparing the crew, you need to prepare according to different themes. ”

If you want to shoot a battle-type TV series, then you need to shoot a lot of exterior scenes, and the props team needs more explosive props.

If it's a spy war drama, you need props for espionage.

Fang Xing already had a preliminary idea, and said directly: "Let's shoot a spy war." This type of audience prefers. ”

Spy war is already a very mature genre in the film and television industry.

is also because this genre is mature, so the preparation will be much faster, and there are many props and crew staff that are ready-made.

However, because this genre is very mature, there are already a lot of pearls and jades in front of it, and it is not easy to shoot new ideas.

"Okay, then the new project will be prepared according to the 'spy war drama', and I will arrange it tomorrow." Qiao Yinghong used a pen to record the content of her work in a notebook.

After a pause, she asked again: "In terms of scripts, do you need to find screenwriters in the industry to ask for drafts?" If the price is high enough, you should be able to find a well-known screenwriting team to make an appointment, and the script can be completed within three months. ”

"No need, I'll decide the script after discussing it with Zhang Yigao." Fang Xing replied.

"Okay, what else does the boss have to say, if not, the content of today's meeting will be discussed." Qiao Yinghong said.

"That's all for today, everyone move. Whether next year's bonus is thick or not, it depends on this drama. Fang Xing said with a smile.

"Long live the boss!" The employees of the company are all excited and motivated.

Since the company's revenue is so good that it explodes, the annual year-end bonus for employees is very generous.

Whether next year's year-end bonus is rich or not depends on the spy war drama to be prepared this time, so the company's employees are riveting and ready to rush.

……

After the meeting, Fang Xing called Zhang Yigao to the office to discuss the spy war drama project.

"None of us have filmed a spy war drama, are you confident?" Fang Xing asked first.

Zhang Yigao smiled heartily and said, "If it's another theme, it's hard for me to say, but this theme is really ...... For a period of time, the film and television base had to open dozens of spy war projects a year.

"The theme of spy war dramas does have a good audience base, even if the filming is thunderous, there are still audiences who are willing to watch it.

"There was a time when you couldn't lose money no matter how you shot this theme, so there were a lot of projects.

"I was an assistant director in the crew, and even when I was on the spot, I participated in eight spy war dramas, if not ten.

"So, I still have experience in this subject.

"Of course, it is true that there is no guide, so it still needs to be seriously explored."

Fang Xing was still very satisfied with his answer, nodded and said, "That's good, it's still a double director." In a few days, I will give you an introduction to the character first, and you and the crew will start looking for actors. As long as I have good acting skills, popularity doesn't matter. ”

There is a new director project again, Zhang Yigao is very excited, rubbing his hands and saying: "I understand, the boss is looking for actors, and he never looks at fame, because no matter how famous he is, he is not as famous as the boss." ”

Fang Xing laughed and said, "You are a ...... ass."

"I'm just telling the truth, there's nothing wrong with saying it."

Zhang Yigao teased, and then asked: "Does the boss still want to play by himself this time?" ”

Fang Xing thought for a moment and replied, "I think so, but when the time comes, it will depend on whether it is appropriate." ”

"And what about the heroine? Isn't it a boss's wife? Zhang Yigao asked again.

"The heroine wants to audition, and the audition will be decided after the audition." Fang Xing did not make a decision immediately.

After all, this time it is a spy war drama, and there are still requirements for acting skills, so you can't mess around.

"Understood." Zhang Yigao nodded slowly.

Fang Xing continued to talk about the script: "I have high requirements for old actors, I need at least one actress with a good temperament and an older one, if you know this, contact us first." ”

"Boss, rest assured, our company is no longer a small company that was unknown before. As long as the news is released, there are many actors who want to participate. Zhang Yigao is very confident in this.

Nor did his faith come blindly.

In fact, when filming "The Beginning", actors were not difficult to find.

It's just that the investment needs to be lowered at that time, so the salary is very low, so there will be Lin Yingxue's agency signing other crews.

However, it turned out later that Lin Yingxue did not take "The Beginning" at that time, which was enough for her to regret it for a whole year.

Zhang Yigao then asked: "Boss, how much do you plan to invest in this spy war drama?" ”

"80 million to 100 million." Fang Xing doesn't need to press the investment this time, so the cost is still relatively generous.

"If it's this investment, the salary is very generous, and if the boss himself acts, it's even more generous."

Zhang Yigao has long been impressed by Fang Xing's acting skills, so he fully approves of Fang Xing's personal appearance, so that he can save the salary of the male lead, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

After the conversation, Fang Xing went home and began to write the script.

While writing, I considered which actors were suitable for playing, and if I felt that there was a suitable image, I sent it to Zhang Yigao and asked him to arrange for the assistant director to invite the audition.
