Chapter 85: Smell the Wind and Move
The collaboration with the director of the TV series boss was immediate!
Tang Yigong quickly set up a filming team for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and any one of them is a heavyweight in the circle.
Executive director Du Feng, the first disciple of Tang Yigong, has won the Best Director of the TV Hundred Flowers Award many times;
Martial arts instructor Cheng Qidong, the best movement coach has won countless awards. The best thing about him is that he gives him an actor who doesn't know martial arts, and he can design the actor in the series to look very good at martial arts;
There are also gold medal screenwriters and gold medal art directors in the circle......
These are the team of Tang Yigong's long-term cooperation, and each of them makes Wang Wei greedy.
And that's just one of them.
After deciding to cooperate in the filming of "Shooting the Condor", Tang Yigong sent the script and project plan to several major TV stations.
I have to say that as a big man in the domestic TV drama production industry, Tang Yigong does have a strong influence, and the projects he recommended attracted the attention of TV stations for the first time.
Soon there was good news coming back -
Huaxia TV said that it hoped to sign a premiere contract for "Shooting the Condor" with Dunhuang in advance.
Dragon TV also expressed a strong interest in "Shooting the Condor".
Several other mainstream television stations have also duly expressed their concern.
An original drama series can be favored by the top two public TV stations before it is officially prepared, and Tang Yigong's energy in the TV drama circle can be seen.
Everyone in Dunhuang believes that this cooperation with Tang Yigong is very worthwhile, and it is conducive to the Dunhuang TV production department to quickly open up the situation.
The fact is also true, these are just Tang Yigong's handy.
He devoted all his enthusiasm to the creation of "Shooting the Condor".
When the crew of "Shooting the Condor" was preparing for filming in the early stage, the most important thing was casting.
With Wang Wei's strong support, Tang Yigong has only one requirement - even if he exerts all his manpower and material resources, he must select the most suitable and loyal characters to the original work.
In order to meet this requirement, the news that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was about to audition actors across the country quickly spread in the circle and immediately caused quite a stir.
……
The agent Yu Li found Shen Zhenyi.
"Xiaozhen, do you know the general situation of the TV series filmed in Dunhuang?"
"This ......"
Shen Zhenyi hesitated for a moment, remembered the script she had read from Wang Wei, and nodded: "I probably know something." ”
"It's a martial arts drama, and I plan to invest 50 million!"
This news successfully set off unquiet waves in Yu Li's heart.
My God, the two movies made by Wang Wei before and after, the production cost did not add up to 50 million.
But now, for a martial arts TV series, Dunhuang actually plans to invest 50 million! How much to expect from this TV series?
This level of investment, even if it is put in the film industry, can still be regarded as a medium production.
There is another key - the director is Tang Yigong!
As we all know, Tang Yigong + martial arts dramas are perennially ranked in the top five positions in the ratings, and they are the most popular actors.
As the owner of a brokerage company, Yu Li was irrepressibly moved.
At this time, the benefits of being close to the water are reflected.
If you have a close relationship between your customers and investors, you can know some insider information in advance, and then make some preparations in advance.
Of course, the girl can see through the agent's intentions.
Still, she didn't have much of an opinion.
Using all the resources around you as much as possible is a common operation in this circle.
Moreover, Wang Wei also hopes that the agent can help find some suitable actors.
But the ugly words have to be said first, "Sister Yu, all the castings of "Condor Shooting" can only be finalized after Director Tang's approval, so there is no chance to directly stuff people." ”
The agent knows this: "I understand, this is Director Tang's consistent style, I just want to know what are the main roles and what are the specific requirements?" ”
These are going to be announced sooner or later, and it doesn't matter if Shen Zhenyi leaks them to the agent in advance.
"In "Shooting the Condor", what is related to the rise and fall of the whole drama is the casting of the heroine."
"The actor is required to be both smart and beautiful, and the corners of the eyebrows and eyes are full of aura, which can be described in eight words - 'quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit'......"
Shen Zhenyi introduced directly to her agent.
Yu Li listened carefully and took it to heart.
After Shen Zhenyi's introduction, the agent reviewed it, and suddenly smiled: "Xiaozhen, have you found anything at all, the film and television projects that have been filmed in Dunhuang in the past two years seem to have souls like heroines, which is called a yin and yang decline!" ”
Shen Zhenyi thought about it and was stunned to find that it was true.
has been released "Peking Holiday" and "Genius Gunman", and her heroine is undoubtedly the whole film; "My Sassy Girlfriend", just by looking at the name, you know that it is a women's drama......
It seems that there is only one "Charlotte Troubles", which is undoubtedly the male lead drama.
Is it all a coincidence?
The agent took a deep look at the girl: "Won't it be to praise you, a little goblin, your little bamboo horse has successfully led the atmosphere of Dunhuang, right?" ”
"Uh......" Shen Zhenyi really can't rule out this possibility.
"Then Wang Wei's next film plan, is it still the two of you cooperating?" The agent suddenly asked.
Shen Zhenyi shook her head: "I still don't know his new film plan, is this issue important?" ”
Yu Li turned the topic to the girl: "Actually, it's just a matter of time - no pair of directors and actors will always work together." ”
"Indeed."
"You need to adapt to the style of other directors, Wang Wei will gradually change his style, and every movie uses Ling as the heroine, and the resistance will become more and more, not only because of the movie itself, but also because of the resistance from the outside world!"
A sneer tugged at the corner of the agent's mouth.
Shen Zhenyi said keenly: "What do you mean-"
"Xiaozhen, do you know how much your alliance with Wang Wei is an eyesore now?"
The agent said solemnly: "The domestic box office of "Genius Gunman" has exceeded 520 million, plus the 480 million of "Peking Holiday", you two have set a record for the youngest actress and the youngest director at the box office of one billion respectively!" ”
"The most important thing is that both movies can be regarded as your sole box office - one person has brought at least four or five billion box office, do you think the filmmaker will react to you?"
There is no need for any hesitation, Shen Zhenyi herself can answer this question: the filmmaker will be crazy about her!
"And Wang Wei, two movies have turned you from a nobody to a big star, and now it seems that he is very good at making popular actresses, do you think the actress group will react to Wang Wei?"
Again, there is no need for any hesitation to answer this question: actresses will go crazy for him!
Shen Zhenyi looked at the agent: "What did you hear?" ”
Yu Li shrugged her shoulders and said directly: "It's a bit of a rumor, it is said that someone wants to break up the third movie ...... you two continue to work together."
