Chapter 4 Makeup Photos (2/4)
In fact, Tang Ren's recent revenue situation is not very good, "The Legend of Heaven and Earth Baolian Lantern" opens high and goes low...
Otherwise, I wouldn't have made three dramas in one year, "Unparalleled in the World", "West Street Boy" and "Dandelion"...
The revenue of "Unparalleled in the World" is okay, after all, Zhang Weijian is popular;
"West Street Boy" made a slight profit, this is a customized drama of Sanlitai;
"Dandelion" has a blood loss and can't be sold at all!
What's even worse is that he can't even sell the DVD copyright - the starring Brother Hu is not famous!
By the way, the failure of "Legend of Heaven and Earth Baolian Lantern" made Tang Ren temporarily give up the idea of "Seven Fairies"...
was originally going to shoot a trilogy - "Legend of Heaven and Earth, Fish Beauty", "Baolian Lantern", "Seven Fairies"...
Of course, later "Fairy Sword" became a big hit, the story of "Seven Fairies" was rearranged, starring Brother Hu, and it was still filmed - "Flying Immortals"...
Back to Dandelion...
It's because the starring actor is not famous and can't be sold, so she is very hesitant.
Shen Xudong shook his head: "Liu Yifei is very famous, she is Wang Yuyan in "Dragon Babu"!" ”
Cai Yinong frowned: "... She's afraid that one is not enough! ”
Shen Xudong simply told the truth: "The most important thing is quality, our company has a good relationship with BJ Taiwan... It can be put on BJ for the first time... As long as the quality is passed, you don't have to worry too much about the distribution! ”
"You're not saying games aren't allowed on it..."
"It can be broadcast on the ground, hundreds of local stations across the country, and as long as the quality is decisive, the audio and video copyright alone is enough to return to the original!"
“… Are you so confident in Sword and Fairy? ”
Shen Xudong smiled: "If I didn't have confidence, I wouldn't invest in this drama!" ”
Hearing Shen Xudong's affirmation, Brother Hu glanced at him gratefully, while Cai Yinong thought for a moment, and then made a final decision: "Then I'll use Brother Hu!" ”
"Li Xiaoyao has chosen... It's almost time to start shooting, right? ”
"Well, the exterior scene is almost over, wait for a few days for them to come, let's take a makeup photo, and turn on on the 27th!"
As she spoke, Cai Yinong got up and prepared to leave, she should have other things, and explained to Brother Hu before leaving: "This is our screenwriter, you can talk to him more about Li Xiaoyao!" ”
Brother Hu hurriedly agreed...
……
Shen Xudong vs. Brother Hu...
It's not a cult, it's just a little bit of a favorite.
He's not a pepper!
In his opinion, Brother Hu is an actor with relatively high professionalism, and there are not so many things that cause trouble...
Let's be honest, don't scold the drama "County Party Committee Compound" and say that this bad plot and bad setting can't meet the standards of the gift drama at all.
You guys really don't know what to do, is this drama dedicated to you?
Ahem...
Shen Xudong chatted with him for a while, and determined that Li Xiaoyao's background color was juvenile and chivalrous, of course, he was not chivalrous enough when he first appeared, he was just a gangster - Li Xiaoyao is the young owner of the inn, which means that he has no worries about food and clothing, which is very important!
Li Xiaoyao can tease cats and dogs all day, wake up and go out to play, and go home to eat when hungry. It's also to help take care of the inn, but even if you don't help, it doesn't matter.
"The whole fairy sword is the process of Li Xiaoyao's gradual growth, the process of physical and mental maturity, whether it is the gradual establishment of the three views, the slow maturity of behavior, or the gradual stability of behavior, it is a process of transformation and growth."
"Take your time... I can't say it either! ”
After a brief chat, Shen Xudong went upstairs...
Brother Hu went back to his room with trepidation.
……
How is "Sword and Fairy" selling?
Let's put it this way, Shanghai Media and Television Center is optimistic about the appeal of this drama among game users, hoping to use the influence of the game to drive the ratings of the TV series, and bought the broadcast rights of the show in Shanghai for 15 consecutive years.
15 years!
It's definitely earned.
Otherwise, after "Fairy Sword", Tang Ren can't afford to shoot "Young Yang Jiajiang" and "Shooting Wither"...
Moreover, "Sword and Fairy One" is a series with a lot of replays, and it belongs to a classic old drama, I heard that in 2021, it will still receive a copyright share of 3 million...
How valuable are classic old dramas, let's put it this way, the copyright of "Bright Sword" Station B expired, and then today's headlines bought it and broadcast it on Watermelon Video, guess how much it spent?
In fact, Shen Xudong's style doesn't match Tang Ren...
Tang Ren's dramas belong to ancient puppets and costume idol dramas.
Add an ancient one, it's still an idol drama!
Although Shen Xudong doesn't mind writing the plot of some idol dramas, he still has some resistance in his heart...
Wicked women, rotten eggs; Caiya, pig wife...
It's also too locomotive...
Therefore, after "Fairy Sword", there should be no more cooperation!
……
The casting is confirmed, and the next step is to set the exact boot time...
Make sure that the actors enter and have a schedule or something.
After all, there are a few actors who are busy...
There is not much difference between TV series shooting and movie shooting, and basic elements such as scenes, locations, actors, including shooting equipment, need to be dismantled one by one according to the requirements of the script...
Hengdian is not the only one in the crew, the same scene is determined by the use of time...
Just when the crew of "Fairy Sword" was preparing, Shen Xudong knew that there were dramas such as "The Criminal Officer of the Great Song Dynasty", "Seven Swords Under the Heavenly Mountain", "Zhenguan Long Song", "Yangmen Tiger General" and other dramas were filming!
By the way, he also heard that the crew of "Wuji" rented the Qin Palace...
He was arguing with Aunt Liu: "The filming of "Wuji" requires the whole process to be kept secret, and I heard that the local armed police force may be used. ”
“… Who do you listen to? ”
"Look at the newspapers!"
Shen Xudong took out the newspaper, with the title "The crew of "Wuji" arrived in Hengdian to shoot and the confidentiality measures were fully upgraded"...
Aunt Liu looked at it: "After all, it is the work of a great director!" ”
“…”
Shen Xudong didn't really want to answer...
He doesn't have much to say about "Boundless"!
It's just a defense - is, and it won't become gold for many years.
Alas, "Ambush on All Sides", "Wuji", and "Night Banquet" constitute a triple hit, which directly makes many people lose interest in domestic movies, and they don't even bother to pirate...
Actually, you don't need to read the newspaper, Shen Xudong knows...
The entire Qinwang Palace is already a forbidden area for tourists!
In addition, the slightly higher places around the royal castle have been boarded off to prevent filming!
What's even more exaggerated is that on a small hill to the west of the Qin Palace, there is actually a wooden wall about 100 meters long that prevents candid photography...
That's a bit too exaggerated...
By the way, Liu Yifei took over the filming of "Fairy Sword", and the salary was 8,000 yuan per episode, and Brother Hu was even lower, 6,000 yuan per episode...
It's cheap!
"Auntie, aren't you going to take a look?"
Aunt Liu came with Liu Yifei, and she wants to take makeup photos today.
“… If I don't go, people will take makeup photos, what am I going to do..."
"Go take a few pictures, I'll take them for you!"
Aunt Liu looked at Shen Xudong with a little surprise: "You know photography?" ”
"Of course~"
This doesn't have to be, it is fused with the memories of later generations, and he still has a strong confidence in photography technology - after all, who is not a photographer in later generations...
