Chapter 52: Get Ready to Soar
Seeing Jiang Cheng's departing back, Lin Zhibai exhaled lightly.
As the actual boss of Kunpeng Investment, this is an identity that does not need to be publicized, and he has now successfully put on the mask of private equity.
It's been more than two months.
Lin Zhibai's second-step plan to compete for the family property can be regarded as an official step, and in the future, he can operate synchronously inside and outside, while developing on his own, while helping his family openly and secretly.
However, I will have to reduce the frequency of meetings with Jiang Cheng in the future.
Jiang Cheng is now the spokesperson of Kunpeng Investment that Lin Zhibai pushed to the forefront, and it will definitely attract widespread attention in the entertainment circle of Qinzhou in the future, and the two may find some clues if they contact too often.
It just so happened that there were no classes at school that day.
Lin Zhibai simply went back to his home to visit his family.
It was already afternoon when he arrived at the villa at home, and his father had just gotten off work when he saw Lin Zhibai sitting on a chair in the courtyard reading a book, and he couldn't help but smile and sat down next to his youngest son.
"What are you looking at?"
"Teaching Composition."
Lin Zhibai put down the book in his hand, he just looked at the books related to composition when he was fine, and now he is no longer the little white who didn't understand anything at the beginning.
"I've really grown up."
Lin Dong said with a smile: "I only had my own job in my freshman year, and I did it so successfully, much better than me, I didn't know what I was busy with when I was a freshman." ”
"How's Daddy's job now?" Lin Zhibai asked with concern.
"I'm waiting for news from the production department." Lin Dong said helplessly.
"Production?"
"Our mythology production department often receives some scripts, and those producers will pick out the books they think are valuable, and contact the right director to shoot, I have seen a few books this year, but they are not particularly satisfied, so I want to wait to see if there are any good scripts in the future."
Lin Dong didn't talk to his son about work before.
But now that Lin Zhibai is becoming more and more mature, Lin Dong, a father, is also willing to communicate with his son.
"So ......"
Lin Zhibai groaned: "The screenwriter is equivalent to a composer, and the director is equivalent to a singer? ”
"There's still a difference."
Lin Dong explained: "Composers generally sign long-term contracts with entertainment companies, and screenwriters are more like mercenaries. ”
There was a pause.
Lin Dong said again: "But there is no problem with your understanding, the status of big-name screenwriters is equivalent to your music father, after all, the film and television industry is centered on screenwriters, so the scripts created by those big-name screenwriters can easily cause three major coaxes."
"It's like your music daddy's song.
"Aren't the singers all rushing to audition?
"It's a pity that even if the myth grabs the works of those big-name screenwriters, it won't be my turn to shoot, your second uncle is a senior executive of the company, and he is also the director of production, and how to distribute the books of big-name screenwriters is usually up to him, unless those big-name screenwriters don't agree."
After speaking.
Lin Dong smiled and said, "These whining words will pass after listening to them, and I will just talk to you casually." ”
"It's gold that always shines."
Lin Zhibai opened his mouth to comfort his father.
As a family member, Lin Zhibai has watched some TV series filmed by his father.
The ratings of these dramas are usually very high, but the performance of the ratings is very average, which is a bit applauded, but Lin Zhibai feels that as a director, there is no problem with his father's ability, it's just that it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice-
That two Burca necked.
As my father said, the Blue Star Film and Television Industry is a screenwriter-centered system.
The screenwriter-centered system means that the screenwriter should be the dominant position in the film and television production process.
In the actual filming of film and television dramas, the actors in the crew dare not offend the screenwriter teacher the most.
Because offending the director is at most being scolded, and if you want to change actors, you have to consider that people have signed a contract in advance.
But if you offend the screenwriter?
That's the rhythm of stealth and even getting lunch boxes every minute.
The pen is in the hands of the screenwriter, and the screenwriter has the final say on how many actors' roles there are?
Those big-name screenwriters can even decide the actors themselves, and even more powerful can also replace the directors arranged by the investors, which shows the high status in the industry!
Then again.
Don't think that the earth is all director-centric.
There are also restrictions on producers and investors on the director.
However, in general, the status of mainland directors is indeed high, unlike the field of Xiangjiang TV dramas, where the most implemented is the producer-centered system.
Europe and the United States are more complicated.
There are both director-centered systems, screenwriter-centered systems, and producer-centered systems.
In addition, many people should have watched Korean dramas.
In fact, Korean dramas are a typical screenwriting-centered structure.
Thanks to this content-heavy model, the Korean Wave will only become popular after the millennium, and even start the cultural invasion mode, until later Korean dramas have swept the global market.
Of course, this is in the field of television.
If it is in the field of Blue Star's films, those big-name directors can still stand up to the screenwriters, after all, movies are not only the art of scripts, but also the art of light and shadow.
Generally.
Being a director in Lanxing is still very hard, and I often have to look at the screenwriter's face.
"I hope so."
Lin Dong patted Lin Zhibai's arm.
Lin Zhibai smiled and looked into the distance.
According to the agreed plan, Jiang Cheng should have handed over the script of "Hurricane" to a certain producer of Mythology, right?
The screenwriter-centered system of the Blue Star TV circle.
This system restricts the rights of TV drama directors like his father, but it gives Lin Zhibai more room to operate.
Get ready to go wild.
……
And on the other side of the city.
Zhao Lei of the Mythical Entertainment Production Department sat in the driver's car and went home after work, and when he closed his eyes and recuperated, he suddenly received a strange phone call.
"You are?"
"Hello Mr. Zhao, let me introduce myself, my name is Jiang Cheng, the representative of Kunpeng Investment." A voice came from the other end of the line.
"Kunpeng Investment?"
Zhao Lei knows many owners of investment companies, and Kunpeng has heard of it for the first time.
"Our company has just been established, it's normal that Mr. Zhao hasn't heard of it, I have a script in my hand, I don't know if Mr. Zhao is interested?"
"Which teacher's work?"
Zhao Lei had a trace of expectation in his heart, he often received similar calls, since the other party could get his own number, it showed that he still had some strength.
"The screenwriter is a teacher who doesn't wait for the night."
Jiang Cheng followed the boss's instructions and directly used the vest of Nightless Hou to sign the script, the attributes of the writer and the screenwriter are similar, so it is reasonable and reasonable to arrange it.
"Teacher Sleepless Hou is a very good ......"
"I'm sorry, but it's the first time I've heard of this writer."
Zhao Lei interrupted Jiang Cheng with his words, he had lost interest in the script, and casually found an excuse and said:
"I still have some things to do, Representative Jiang can send some of the script to my mailbox, and I will read it when I have time."
"Okay, hard work, goodbye."
There weren't too many mood swings in the other party's voice, and the phone was hung up simply, without even asking for his email address.
It's tough.
This made Zhao Lei a little surprised.
Normally, representatives of such investment companies who want to cooperate with Mythical Entertainment will try their best to fight for a few words, saying how good our script is, you must take a good look at it, and so on.
However, the phone had been hung up, and Zhao Lei did not take it to heart, and continued to close his eyes and recuperate.
But Zhao Lei's driver suddenly mentioned in front of a red light:
"The novel that never sleeps is very good."
Zhao Lei, the driver, is a relative of his hometown, and he can occasionally talk to him.
"Is this man famous?"
Zhao Lei opened his eyes, he knew many famous writers, but he didn't have any impression of the nightless marquis.
"Looks like a newcomer."
The driver thought: "It shouldn't have been long since I debuted, you know that I usually like to read idle books, and I just happened to read his works." ”
"Hmm."
Zhao Lei responded casually, but suddenly received an email prompt on his mobile phone.
The party who sent the letter was called [Kunpeng Investment Company Representative Jiang Cheng].
Zhao Lei was happy.
This representative of Kunpeng Investment seems to have a bit of energy, not to mention his phone number, he even knows his email address.
Most of these people have a background.
No wonder he was so hard when he just hung up the phone.
Thinking that there was still a long way to go home, Zhao Lei simply accepted the script and planned to read it casually, just to pass the time.
Normally.
Zhao Lei doesn't read the scripts of such newcomer screenwriters.
It's not that Zhao Lei looks down on newcomer screenwriters, and it's not that he is irresponsible for his work.
Those who can gain a firm foothold in Mythology Entertainment are not simple characters, but Zhao Lei's identity and position are somewhat special, and there are too many various scripts to come into contact with every day.
If you read everyone's script, you will definitely die of overwork!
Not to mention that it is Zhao Lei's time to get off work, and it is the time to be tired after a day.
Yes.
Zhao Lei usually throws the works of those screenwriters who are not famous to his subordinates for review first, and selects those with a certain value to hand them over, and only the works of those famous screenwriters will he personally see them.
However, this Jiangcheng is so well prepared, with its own number and email address, which has aroused Zhao Lei's interest.
Once the file is downloaded.
Zhao Lei saw the basic information displayed on the first page of the script.
Script: Hurricane
Genre: Cop/Urban/Crime
Number of episodes: 43
In addition to the above, the identities of the two main characters are also introduced, and a synopsis of the story is attached.
Zhao Lei didn't see anything surprising in the synopsis of the story, like many police and bandit dramas, with the official anti-crime and anti-evil action as the starting point, and the main goal was to catch a certain black boss.
was about the background introduction of the actor An Xin, which somewhat surprised Zhao Lei.
"It's rare to see a design for the background of the main character."
The protagonist An Xin is not an ordinary grassroots criminal policeman?
In the same type of police drama, the protagonists are usually at the grassroots level, and at most they are the captains of the criminal police team.
And An Xin's identity is a little special, to be precise, it is very background, the audience will definitely like this background, everyone likes the feeling that the protagonist has a backstage, with a little "cool drama" color.
Next is the text.
Time, scenes, character dialogues are all regular script patterns.
At the beginning of the first episode, a place called "Kyokai" is introduced.
Jinghai experienced an anti-crime operation some time ago, the underworld forces that had been entrenched for many years were eliminated, and the official also seized a large amount of funds, who knew that the water in this place was deeper than imagined-
There are still underworld forces in this city.
After receiving the report, the higher-level unit sent a guidance group and asked a leader named Xu Zhong to lead the team and make sure to completely dig out the underworld forces in Jinghai.
Before leaving.
The above specially reminds Xu Zhong:
It is necessary to take Jinghai Qiangsheng Group as a breakthrough to solve the problem.
Jinghai Qiangsheng Group is a large enterprise, social relations are quite complex, the company's president Gao Qiqiang, is the local business head of Jinghai, and his influence in the local area is extremely terrifying.
The guidance group arrived in Jinghai.
Then the protagonist An Xin officially appeared and intersected with Xu Zhong and others in the guidance group.
The young but white-haired actor An Xin pulled the story back to twenty years ago through a memory.
That year.
Gao Qiqiang, president of Qiangsheng Group, is just a fishmonger.
was reported for fighting, and Gao Qiqiang entered the detention center for the New Year.
It happened to be An Xin on duty that night.
This is where the intersection of the two main characters, black and white, begins.
Zhao Lei looked at the script, as a qualified producer, he knew that the plot was the real beginning here.
The suspense of the opening game is very strong.
An Xin, the actor with a good background in the system, why is he full of gray hair after 20 years?
On the contrary.
The second male Gao Qiqiang was only born as a fish seller, and he couldn't even keep a fish stall at first.
The vegetable market bully just used a little trick to send him to the detention center for the New Year.
How did such a figure at the bottom of society become the leader of the deepest underworld forces in Jinghai City in just 20 years or so?
"Sss
Zhao Lei became a little interested in the follow-up plot, he adjusted his posture and put away the randomness in his heart.
"It's kind of interesting......"
