"Sitcom, is it easy to shoot?"

Mu Rong suddenly asked.

He remembered the screenwriter named Ning Caishen he had seen at the annual meeting, and he seemed to be writing sitcoms.

"It's easy to shoot, but it's not easy to shoot."

Song Huanwei was a talker, he couldn't stop talking for a moment, and when he saw that Mu Rong was interested, he turned around and chatted with him: "Sitcoms are more inclined to dramas, not as detailed as movies, all kinds of exterior scenes, post-production or something, sitcoms can be filmed as long as they set up a scene in the studio, and the cost is relatively low."

But this is also the disadvantage of sitcoms, it is not like movies and TV series, it can do all kinds of big scenes, and can only promote the development of the plot through the performance of the actors and the design of the lines, so the level of screenwriters and actors is relatively high, the script must be exciting enough, and the actors must also act well. ”

"That's it!"

Mu Rong nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Then have you heard of Ning Caishen?" ”

"Ning God of Wealth?"

Song Xuan was puzzled: "Who?" God of Wealth? ”

"Haha!"

Liu Yifei was amused by her and explained: "It should be a pen name, he wrote a sitcom, it seems to be called "Diary of a Networm". ”

Liu Yifei attended the annual meeting with Mu Rong, and she also remembered a lot of people.

"Huh? I seem to have heard of this drama, it was filmed by Lin Cong, right? ”

Song Xuanwei seemed to have an impression: "The "Family with Children" I want to shoot is directed by Lin Cong. ”

Zhang Yimou turned around and smiled: "People in the sitcom circle basically know each other, and Mr. Song is the sister-in-law." ”

Song Wei sighed, waved his hand and shook his head, and explained self-deprecatingly: "Former sister-in-law." ”

The circle of sitcoms is not large, and it is basically the group of people in the drama circle.

At present, the number one sitcom in China is Song Yingda's ex-husband Yingda.

He filmed the first domestic sitcom "I Love My Home", Song Yuanwei was one of the leading actors, and Lin Cong was the executive director at that time.

But later, because of the problem of cheating in marriage, Song Xuanjiao and Yingda divorced, and Yingda became her ex-husband.

Song Xuanwei obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, so he smiled at Mu Rong and asked, "Alas? Mu Rong, do you have time to make a cameo role? ”

"I'll definitely come when I have time."

Mu Rong didn't say yes, and then asked curiously: "Is it profitable to make sitcoms?" ”

"Hey! What's the money? ”

Song Yi smiled and said: "When I filmed "I Love My Family", the salary was only 700 yuan per episode, and Ge You was only 500 yuan per episode, which was not much money.

However, at that time, a worker's monthly salary was only more than 100 yuan, which was already a lot. ”

Zhang Yimou came over and interjected: "But don't say it, the theme of sitcoms is still very interesting, it's not like a movie, the audience just watches it lively, and it's over after watching it."

Sitcoms can be filmed and broadcast continuously, and the audience will watch them repeatedly, and one shot can be filmed for several years.

Maybe in terms of short-term benefits, sitcoms can't compare to movies, but in terms of long-term benefits, some good sitcoms are not worse than movies. ”

"It has to be in a pretty country."

Song Wei smiled and said: "The soap opera in the beautiful country is filmed for several years, and a bowl of rice can eat half a lifetime." ”

"Soap opera?"

Mu Rong was a little puzzled: "Isn't it a sitcom?" ”

The reputation of soap operas in the circle is not good, it is a bit derogatory.

Song Xuanwei didn't care, and explained with a smile: "There is not much division in China, and sitcoms are generally called soap operas, and the audience watches them as sketches." ”

"The West is relatively clear, soap operas are soap operas, sitcoms are sitcoms, and TV dramas are TV series."

Zhang Yimou explained: "But the sitcom can indeed be eaten for a long time after it is filmed, just like the beautiful country's "Growing Pains", which was filmed in 85 years, and it took seven years to shoot.

After the filming, the copyright was sold to China again, and it was broadcast for several years, and a drama can be eaten for more than ten years.

Those actors who act in sitcoms, as long as they come across a good drama and can get ahead, they will have no worries about eating and drinking for the rest of their lives, and they are all billionaires. ”

"Growing pains? I think I've seen that show. ”

Liu Yifei thought about it: "When I was in school in a beautiful country, there was a replay of that drama on TV, but I prefer to watch "Friends". ”

Zhang Yimou nodded: ""Friends" was also filmed last year, right?" It's been almost ten years since I filmed. ”

"That's right! It really felt like an old friend who grew up with us. ”

Liu Yifei sighed: "I want to go back and watch the replay again." ”

"In fact, this is the greatest sense of accomplishment of being an actor."

Song Xuanwei was also recalled: "When I am walking on the road now, many people see me, they don't call me by my name, they all call me peace directly, and some even have to take me home for dinner, which is very enthusiastic."

Because of a character, there are many viewers who treat you as a friend, although he has never seen you, but it seems that he has known you for a long time, and you are an old friend who has not seen you for many years. ”

Liu Yifei listened with envy: "If only I could be so powerful." ”

"You've played the fairy sister, aren't you amazing?"

Song Xuan quipped: "You don't know how many actresses dream of playing your role!" When those young men who watch your play grow up, they all want to marry you home! ”

"Then I don't."

Liu Yifei turned around and grabbed Mu Rong's arm and said with a smile: "I only marry my cousin." ”

"Oh my God! Who do you want to die beautifully? ”

Song Xuan squeezed his eyebrows and joked, and then he laughed first.

Mu Rong grabbed Liu Yifei's hand, interlocked his fingers, and smiled silently.

Song Guanwei and Zhang Yimou's words benefited him a lot, and it turned out that sitcoms can also be very profitable.

In this way, he can collect some sitcom scripts and try to invest in them.

Anyway, Song Guanwei said that the cost of this kind of scene is not high, it is all filmed indoors, and it doesn't cost much.

But if you can come across a good script and a good theme, after the filming is successful, you can eat it for many years.

The last time we met, that Ning Caishen said that he had a sitcom book to write, and he could talk about it later.

Even if he doesn't shoot, it's okay to find a crew to shoot it and test the water.

Before that, you can go to Song Xuan's crew to take a look and understand the situation.

Thinking of this, Mu Rong smiled at Song Yi and said, "Sister Tan, after I finish this play, I have a few days to spare. ”

"That's great!"

Song Xuan smiled and said: "Then I'll talk to Zang Li and Zang Xi's brothers and sisters, add two episodes to you, and have a cameo appearance as a charity boxing champion, then our drama will sell a lot of money!" ”

"Can I act then?"

Liu Yifei asked.

"Yes! That's great! I can't ask for it! ”

Song Xuan laughed and said, "If Lin Cong knew that I had invited such two big names to her, she would probably have to wake up laughing in her dreams!" ”
