Wang Yutao has studied the script of "Ancient Acacia" very thoroughly, and he can't find fault with Fang Xing.

After discussing the filming plan of "Ancient Lovesickness".

Fang Xing made one last request: "I hope that the 14 episodes of the TV series that will be filmed in the end, starting from the first episode, the plot will be smooth." Then from episode 14 onwards, if you look backwards, the plot can also be smooth. ”

This request is peculiar.

Under normal circumstances, the plot of a TV series starts from episode 1 and then develops episode by episode.

However, Fang Xing made such a strange request.

I asked to watch it back from episode 14, and the plot was smooth.

This kind of peculiar setting is rare in the TV drama industry.

However, after Wang Yutao listened, he was only surprised for a moment, and immediately understood what it meant:

"I understand, this can be processed in post-editing, and there should be no problem."

After Wang Yutao finished chatting about the script, he rushed back to the East China Sea by train in the afternoon and officially devoted himself to the project of "Ancient Acacia".

……

Fang Xingren is in Baitang Town, and when he is usually free, he doesn't do nothing.

The script for Darkling 2 is ready.

The series has been in the dark for more than a year, and it is time to start planning a sequel.

Zhang Yigao got the script, read it carefully for a few days, then learned from Wang Yutao, wrote dozens of pages of ideas, and a preliminary storyboard script, and then ran to Baitang Town to discuss the script, and also brought the company's screenwriting team.

Since Fang Xing rested, Zhang Yigao is now the head director of Ark Culture's TV series, and the results of the previous dramas are also okay.

This time, the "Darkling 2" project will be launched, and it is foreseeable that this year's revenue will increase significantly.

Ark Culture launched two film and television projects at the same time.

"Darkling 2" has been confirmed to be a customized drama of Pea Video Mist Theater, so part of the crew team uses the team of Pea Film and Television.

"Ancient Lovesickness" is a small-investment web drama, and the required crew size is smaller.

So, it's perfectly fine to shoot the two projects together.

Because the first part of "The Darkling" is a well-received drama with a score of 8.2, and it has been precipitated for more than a year.

The audience is very much looking forward to "Darkling 2".

Therefore, after the official announcement of the start of this drama, it aroused discussions among many netizens and audiences, and once rushed to the hot search list.

Moreover, "Darkling 2" is the first film and television drama that Fang Xing has participated in since announcing his retirement, which has also attracted a lot of attention.

Because Fang Xing has not filmed a drama or released a song for more than a year, he has almost disappeared from the public eye.

If it weren't for the entertainment reporters who occasionally posted some shallow news about Fang Xing's daughter, the public would have forgotten about this person.

"Darkling 2" was officially announced, and the entertainment media immediately rushed to report it.

["Darkling 2" was officially launched, and Fang Xing appeared in the public eye again, is it a signal of the official return? ] Or take a soy sauce and continue to rest. 】

[Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er's daughter Qianqian, one and a half years old, has been living in her hometown Baitang Town, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, is it good or bad? 】

[Fang Xing disappeared for a year and a half, and the revenue of Ark Culture declined, finally revealing what a film and television company should be. 】

Under these entertainment gossips, it has attracted a lot of discussion from netizens:

[A few years ago, Ark Culture was really a bit outrageously strong. It's normal now. 】

[One thing to say, the development of Ark culture is okay, and most of the newly filmed film and television dramas are profitable. 】

[Ark Culture's projects are indeed mostly profitable, but the company's profits are not very high. After all, there is a Nebula special effect Gold Swallowing Beast, and all the money earned is used to burn special effects. 】

[The special effects company burns money and burns money, but now the special effects of many dramas on Pea Video are made by Nebula special effects, looking at the level of special effects, it is not bad. 】

[In the film and television industry, special effects companies are indeed very money-burning, especially in the early stage, ordinary companies can't support this money-burning method at all, and Ark Culture has developed rapidly in the past few years, and nearly ten popular dramas have survived. 】

[How long will Fang Xing rest for this product? I've been out of stock for a few years now. 】

[Even if the TV series is not filmed, there is not even a song, and the songs that are popular now are all strange things. 】

[Now this product is a hot kang head for wives and children, how can I still have the heart to make a drama. 】

[Haven't you been filming a film called "Ancient Lovesickness" recently? 】

[The director of "Ancient Acacia Song" is Wang Yutao, the assistant director of the former Fang Xing. 】

[Speaking of which, it's really not a loss to follow Fang Xingdang's deputy director. first brought out a Zhang Yigao, and now Wang Yutao is also going to make a feature film. 】

[It's hard to say, just looking at the introduction of "Ancient Lovesickness", ancient puppets are not like ancient puppets, suspense is not like suspense, and there is also the content of time and space travel, it is not a bad movie. 】

[I'm not very optimistic about "Ancient Lovesickness", Wang Yutao seems to have a good resume, but he has always been an assistant director, and he has never directed a feature film independently. 】

[Not only is the director a newcomer, but the actors are also very new, and a large number of people have never heard of the name. Even the heroine is a little-known eighteenth-tier actor, if there is any advantage, that is, the heroine is very beautiful. 】

[The heroine of "Ancient Lovesickness" is really beautiful, especially the red dress in the makeup photo, which killed me. 】

……

In the voice of online public opinion.

The two projects of "Darkling 2" and "Ancient Lovesickness" are being filmed in an orderly manner.

Fang Xing will inquire about the situation of the two projects every week, and the main focus is on the filming of "Ancient Acacia".

After all, Zhang Yigao is already a mature director, and the first part of "The Darkling" was filmed by him, and the investment in the sequel has increased a lot, and with his ability, he can control it.

Wang Yutao made a feature film independently for the first time, so Fang Xing paid more attention.

The filming of "Ancient Lovesickness" went well, and the shots were very good.

Wang Yutao is good at shooting beautiful pictures, and this time "Ancient Acacia" is in accordance with the B-level investment, with an investment of 40 million.

The actor's salary only accounts for a small head, so most of the money is spent on the costume and the set.

Therefore, the texture of the picture is very good.

At least it can be seen that the crew is not so poor.

……

A little one and a half years old, he can already say a few whole words.

When he saw Fang Xing, he opened his little hand and shouted inarticulately, "Daddy hug." ”

Sometimes, Fang Xing teased her and pretended to run away.

Shallow will also take steps, staggering to catch up, and hug Fang Xing's legs.

Since shallow can walk, it's more fun.

The remote-controlled car that Fang Xing bought was remotely controlled in the back.

Shallow chased the car in front, quacking and laughing.

When she was tired of running, Fang Xing would drive back with a remote control car and sway in front of her.

Qianqian picked up the car directly every time, then turned around and ran back, stuffing it back into Fang Xing's hand.

Joy does not know how time passes.

Unconsciously, Qianqian is two years old, and his speech is becoming more and more neat.

And inherited the music cells of Fang Xing and Lu Xianger, she likes music very much, every time she plays a song on TV, she will jump up and down and hum along.

Suddenly, one day, I wanted my father to take her out to play, so she ran up and began to hum: "Dad, Dad, where are we going......

……

The filming of "Darkling 2" and "Ancient Lovesickness" has also ended.

Darkling 2 is still in late production.

Due to the small number of episodes, "Ancient Acacia" has been produced in the later stage, and it is confirmed to be broadcast on Pea Video.

Because of Wang Yutao, the director of "Ancient Lovesickness", he made a feature film for the first time.

Even if the screenwriter's signature is Fang Xing, the major video websites have not spent a lot of money to compete for it.

Of course, there are still video sites that have asked.

After all, this online drama has Fang Xing's participation, although he doesn't participate much, but there are still video sites that want it.

Penguin Video and Taro Video have been approached and asked about the price of "Ancient Acacia".

Fang Xing decided at the beginning to take the CPM account sharing model, and it was 70% account sharing.

70% account sharing, not all TV series can get such a high account sharing ratio.

Usually, only popular TV series can get such a high proportion of account sharing.

In the TV series filmed before Fang Xing, except for "Wulin Gaiden", other dramas are 70% account-sharing, and even video websites have to open a guarantee.

At that time, it seemed that a habit had been formed, and the standard for the drama of Ark Culture was 70% account sharing.

However, this is not an industry standard.

In the film and television industry, B-level dramas can basically only get 50% of the account sharing ratio opened by video websites.

Even, sometimes A-level investment dramas can only get 50%.

Only with S-level large investment and a strong lineup of main creators, the video website will open a 70% account sharing ratio.

Just looking at the lineup of "Ancient Lovesickness", the director is a newcomer, and the actors are either newcomers or eighteenth-tier young actors.

In the entire creative team, only Fang Xing's name is valuable.

Therefore, Penguin Video and Taro Video want to buy this drama under the name of Fang Xing, but they will not open a very high price.

Therefore, in the end, "Ancient Acacia" was broadcast on Pea Video, and a revenue gambling account sharing agreement was signed.

The total revenue of "Ancient Acacia Song" is more than 100 million, and the account is divided according to 70%.

If the total revenue does not reach 100 million, it will be divided according to 50%.

"Ancient Acacia" is a B-level investment with a total investment of 40 million.

This investment is very well funded for a 14-episode TV series, so the quality of the picture is very good.

However, according to professionals in the industry, it is not easy for this drama to get a total revenue of 100 million.

After this drama is scheduled to be broadcast.

Wang Yutao began to take the main creative team and run around for publicity.

Ark Culture still has connections, so the main creative team has appeared on many TV shows for promotion.

Roadshows are naturally no less.

Wang Yutao runs roadshows almost every day.

However, the main actors are really not famous, and there is only one name in the entire crew list that can make entertainment reporters pay attention.

Therefore, most of the entertainment reporters who came to participate in the roadshow and conducted interviews were asking Fang Xing's situation.

Reporter: "Director Wang, have you ever visited Fang Xing's hometown?" ”

Wang Yutao: "I've been." ”

Reporter: "Have you seen shallow?" ”

Wang Yutao: "Yes." However, please don't ask shallow related questions, this is the privacy of Fang Dao, please give your child a little space. ”

Reporter: "Fang Xing lives in his hometown because he doesn't want his daughter to be exposed to the entertainment industry?" ”

Wang Yutao: "I haven't asked about this matter, I don't know. ”

Reporter: "Has Fang Xing participated in the filming of "Ancient Lovesickness"? ”

Wang Yutao: "I discussed the script with Director Fang, and he helped a lot in the filming of this drama. ”

Reporter: "When will Fang Xing return to filming?" ”

Wang Yutao: "This ...... I don't know very well. However, Director Fang has no plans for a TV series in the near future. ”

Reporter: "Next door "The Darkling 2" is also finished, do you know anything about "The Darkling 2"?" ”

Wang Yutao: "One point, after the completion of "Ancient Lovesickness", I went to Director Zhang's crew to visit the class. ”

Reporter: "What do you think of the filming of "Darkling 2"? ”

Wang Yutao: "This ...... Can we talk about "Ancient Lovesickness"? ”

Reporter: "What do you want to talk about "Ancient Lovesickness"? ”

Wang Yutao was a little speechless, obviously it was the publicity activity of "Ancient Acacia".

However, the questions asked by the reporter were either about Fang Xing or about "Darkling 2".

However, it is normal for this to happen.

After all, the main creative team of "Ancient Lovesickness", except for Fang Xing, has no famous one.

The previous work of "Darkling 2" used to be a hit drama, and the public and reporters naturally paid more attention to it.

……

The publicity effect of "Ancient Acacia" is relatively average, after all, the main creative team is not famous.

The people who the reporters pay attention to do not participate in the publicity activities, and the number of entertainment reporters who come to the scene is very small for each publicity activity.

Seeing that the start time of "Ancient Acacia" is getting closer and closer.

Wang Yutao is worried that the popularity of this drama is too low.

After all, it is the first time he has made a feature film independently, and if he hits the street, it will be even more difficult for him to wait for such an opportunity in the future.

Therefore, there is still a week before the start of "Ancient Lovesickness".

Wang Yutao called Fang Xing: "Boss, the publicity effect of "Ancient Lovesickness" is not very good, and the popularity cannot be raised.

"Can you, take part in a promotional event? Help pull the heat.

"If you really don't have time, you can just post on Weibo to promote it."

As soon as Fang Xing heard that this was the case, he agreed: "Yes, let Mr. Qiao find a place to hold a launch conference." When the time comes, I'll be there. ”

"Okay, okay, thank you." When Wang Yutao heard this, he immediately became excited.

"What's there to thank you for, I'll call Mr. Qiao later. You prepare and try to get all the leading actors present when the time comes. Fang Xing said.

"No problem, all the leading actors are guaranteed to be present." Wang Yutao immediately packed the ticket.

Subsequently, Fang Xing called Qiao Yinghong to arrange the launch press conference of "Ancient Lovesickness".

The next day, Ark Culture announced the launch of "Ancient Acacia".

Moreover, it was made clear that Fang Xing would participate in this press conference.

As soon as the news spread, it immediately caused an uproar in the major entertainment media.

Because this is the first time that Fang Xing has appeared two years after disappearing from public view.

Let's not talk about Fang Xing's reappearance, whether his popularity can return to the peak, but the topic is definitely full.

Therefore, all major entertainment media began to prepare to participate in the launch conference of "Ancient Acacia".
