Within a few days, the filming of [The Legend of Chu Qiao] in Hengdian was completed, and the filming time of the whole drama lasted for more than 5 months, and now it is finally over.

The crew prepared a finale banquet, which made the rest of the cast and crew celebrate a little.

After that, the actors left the group, and the main creative staff of the crew also packed up their things and prepared to return to the capital under the command of producer Zhao Mingcheng.

"Li County, do you all have to go back to the capital company after the finale?"

The next morning, in the lobby of the crew's hotel, Li County, who was dragging his suitcase and leaving, met Zhao Liying who came out at the same time.

"yes, I have to go back to the company first."

Li replied with a smile.

The two have worked together for more than 5 months in the whole TV series, and they are not eccentric people, and now they are friends.

Zhao Liying hesitated.

"I'm watching the news, the TV series you Mr. Gu filmed last month was completed, and now you should be in the capital, right?"

"Yes, we were talking on the phone the day before yesterday~"

"Do you have any other TV series to shoot this year?"

"This is really not clear, it depends on the arrangement between the company and Mr. Gu"

Li Xian looked at Zhao Liying's face and asked tentatively.

"Sister Liying, if you don't come with us, you and Mr. Gu are also old friends, just go back and ask him."

Zhao Liying smiled.

"I have other scenes here in Hengdian, and I will join the group again in two days after the filming of this filming."

"Tut, Sister Liying, you deserve to be the "Queen of Hengdian", a year is either filming or on the way to filming, it's too hard"

The two chatted a few more words, and the car over there in Li County was about to leave, saying goodbye to Zhao Liying.

Before leaving, Zhao Liying said to him again.

"Go back and see you Mr. Gu, help me bring a word, don't forget what promised me before!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

After she left, Peng Yuchang's head poked out from behind Li County and looked at Zhao Liying's back as she left.

"Sister Liying's words have a deep meaning, promise?

It sounds like there is a relationship between the two of them in dozens of episodes of puppet dramas. ”

Li Xian squinted at him and patted the back of Peng Yuchang's head.

"Take care of your mouth, your brother Wei is the boss, and it won't be your turn to worry about anything."

"Oh ~ got it."

Peng Yuchang also played a small supporting role in [The Legend of Chu Qiao], and there were not many scenes in the second half, so he followed the crew to finish the work.

"You joined the company from playing the role of [Crown Princess], and now it has been more than two years, right?"

While the two of them were walking, Li Xian looked at the little brother beside him who had been following him for more than two years and asked.

"That's right, county brother, you forgot, didn't we sign in together?"

Peng Yuchang said with a smile.

"You see, it was also the [Crown Princess] crew at the beginning.

Zhang Tianai is now a first-line actress, starring in movies with a box office of more than 2 billion.

Look at yourself, still playing supporting roles in various crews.

Shouldn't you introspect, is it because you haven't worked hard enough in the past two years? ”

After getting along in the past two years, Li Xian and Peng Yuchang are really good, and he completely treats each other as his little brother.

"But Brother County, you were still the male protagonist of [Crown Princess] at the beginning, aren't you not popular now?"

Peng Yuchang lowered his head and argued.

"Eh~ Although I am not popular, I have played so many main and supporting roles in the past two years, and I am somewhat famous.

I am still the leading actor in our big-budget costume drama, and I cooperate with Sister Liying, who is popular, won't I be popular when the TV series is released? ”

A somewhat embarrassed Li Xian explained two sentences.

"Don't talk about me, now talk about you.

It's not a long-term solution for you to be in a small supporting role all the time, you have to become famous as soon as possible, our company has so many resources, you have to hurry up! ”

"Brother County, I know you are for my good.

But here are my conditions.

I'm not handsome, and it's hard to play the leading role in idol dramas.

Just like the [Chu Qiao Biography] filmed by our company, Zhang Binbin played the second male number one scene a lot, if it is based on the relationship between distance and proximity, I have a greater chance of acting.

But you also know that my looks make it impossible to play that role. ”

Peng Yuchang still sees himself relatively clearly and knows the limitations of his image.

Li Xian frowned.

He knew that what Peng Yuchang said was right, and the impression that the other party gave him was still the little eunuch in [Crown Princess], and these idol dramas that are more popular now are really not suitable for him.

"When I go back to the company, I'll talk to Gu Wei about your problem, since he signed you at the beginning, he must have taken a fancy to some of your qualities.

Looks are not a problem, my classmate Zhang Yishan looks much better than you, and he has the same [residual sin] that took a big shot.

From the time I knew Gu Wei when I was in school to now, after so many years, I haven't found out that he is wrong! ”

After listening to Li County's words, Peng Yuchang's face showed a happy expression, and then he hesitated a little.

"Ask Brother Wei directly, okay?"

"What's bad, it's about your future, and besides, let's just ask him what he has planned for you.

But no matter what, your acting skills must be honed well, don't really give it a chance when the time comes, you can't grasp it yourself. ”

Li County confessed again.

"Don't worry, Brother County, I feel that my acting skills have grown a lot in the past two years, and there is no problem."

Peng Yuchang had a confident expression on his face.

In the company's small conference room, Gu Wei called Yang Liwen and Zhao Mingcheng, who had just returned to Beijing, to discuss with them the company's next shooting plan.

The company started filming two TV series [Three Lives and Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms] and [The Legend of Chu Qiao] at the end of last year, and one movie [Love Saint], all of which are now in post-production.

[Love Saint] has been set for this year's Chinese New Year, and it will be released in December.

Both TV series belong to costume productions, and the later production time is relatively long, and when the finished film comes out, the price will be negotiated with the TV station and video platform, and finally it will be broadcast online, and it is estimated that it will have to be from the end of this year to the beginning of next year.

Post-production was handled by a dedicated team, and the company's filming staff was temporarily idle.

"Do you have any thoughts on the projects that the company will carry out in the second half of the year?

Now that it has been decided, [You Are My Glory] is expected to start in 8~9 months, and director Lin Yufen has taken over the drama.

However, judging from the current staff size of our company, it is no problem to support the filming of two or three dramas at the same time. ”

Gu Wei asked.

"Boss, I think with our company's current reputation, it is still the safest to shoot idol dramas, whether it is an ancient puppet or a current puppet, TV stations and video platforms can buy it, and it is easy to achieve results after the TV series is launched.

And in the past two years, the selling price of TV series has become higher and higher, and the money we make from making TV series is no less than making movies, and the risk is much lower. ”

Zhao Mingcheng, who was sitting on the left-hand side, said.

He started out in TV dramas, and he has always played the role of producer in the company's self-made dramas, so he still hopes to do what he is good at.

"Mr. Zhao is right, but there is a problem.

The boss's schedule for the second half of the year has been fully scheduled, and if the company opens a new drama, there is no time to participate, so whether other actors can support the ratings as the male and female protagonists is a question. ”

Yang Liwen voiced her worries.

"Mr. Yang was too worried, the two online dramas [Residual Sins] and [The Promotion of the Crown Princess] produced by the company before did not have the participation of the boss, and the final results were still very good.

The same is true of the [The Legend of Chu Qiao] that we just finished, but from my point of view, the probability of [The Legend of Chu Qiao] being a big hit is also very high. ”

Zhao Mingcheng disagrees with Yang Liwen's view.

He feels that with the company's past achievements and current production capabilities, if the boss stars, then it will definitely be a hit drama, even if the boss doesn't join, they have the ability to make a hit drama.

"The previous two online dramas are actually not real idol dramas, the subject matter is cheap, and if Mr. Zhao wants to shoot an idol drama, the choice of male and female protagonists is very important.

You said that [Chu Qiao's Biography] will have good results in the future, and I agree, that's because Zhao Liying is too popular now.

If the company opens a new idol drama, without a suitable male and female protagonist, it is difficult to guarantee future results! ”

Yang Liwen still insists on her point of view, she feels that although script production is important, it is the stars that really attract fans to watch idol dramas.

Gu Wei, the boss, has no time, so the choice of the male and female protagonists should be cautious.

"I recently looked at the company's copyright library, and selected two good ones, both of which can be adapted into TV series, do you think it's better to shoot it now?"

Gu Wei raised his hand to stop their argument, and took out a few pages and put them in front of the two.

Above is a synopsis of two stories to be adapted.

Gu Wei has been buying popular copyrights on the Internet since he established the studio in 12 years, but as IP has become more and more popular in the past two years, many famous film and television adaptation rights have become more and more expensive.

Fortunately, Gu Wei's current company is not bad for money, so the company's copyright library is getting bigger and bigger.

However, there is a little problem, most of the networks he bought are female frequencies of Jin Jiang literature, and even if they are adapted, they can only be idol dramas.

He only grabbed a copy of [Celebrating More Than Years] at any cost, and the popular IPs like [Douluo Continent], [Martial Arts], and [Dou Breaking the Sky] were all bought by other companies.

"I think it's better for us to shoot this [Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost]."

After a while, Zhao Mingcheng took the lead in speaking.

"Boss, the two you chose, one is an ancient puppet and one is a current puppet, in fact, the stories are good.

However, our company has just filmed two large-scale ancient puppet dramas [Three Lives and Three Worlds] and [Chu Qiao's Biography], and we have the most experience in this area.

Many of the previous props can be reused, which greatly saves the cost, and the staff is also easy to shoot, so I think it can be better to shoot [Xiangmi]. ”

Gu Wei listened to his words and nodded.

Then he looked at Yang Liwen on the other side.

"I have no opinion, although I think the other [Honey Stewed Squid] has a very good taste of [Smile and Love], but [Fragrant Honey] also looks good.

TV series shooting is Mr. Zhao's strong point.

is how to choose the hero and heroine of this drama? ”

Yang Liwen said and looked at Gu Wei.

"Boss, if you don't have time for this play, it's okay for the male protagonist to hand it over to Li County, right?"

Gu Wei smiled and nodded.

Then Yang Liwen muttered again.

"Nazha took over a movie in the second half of the year, Zhang Tianai wants to shoot [Wolf Warrior 2] with the boss, and Clara will definitely not be able to play this role.

Mencius can try, but her fame is too small now, I'm afraid she won't be able to support the ratings."

Gu Wei smiled.

"I've already thought about the heroine's problem, our company doesn't have a suitable one, I'm going to invite Yang Zi to play!"

"Yang Zi?"

Yang Liwen muttered a sentence in her mouth.

"Can she?"

Her impression of Yang Zi is still Xiaoxue in the family with children, and it is difficult to connect with the heroine of idol dramas.

"We have been good friends for many years, Yang Zi is still a classmate of Li County, I have confidence in her, and I will definitely be able to act well.

As for fame

I have my own plans! ”

chose Yang Zi to play [Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost] Naturally, he is not afraid that she will not act well, and Gu Wei does not think that Li County will be inferior to a certain Lun.

The only problem now is that their popularity is average, and they are afraid that they will not be able to buy the price in the first round after the filming.

Even if the TV series explodes after it is broadcast, the loss of the first round cannot be compensated.

After all, they are not Gu Wei, as long as they participate, TV stations and video websites will rush to buy them.

However, after Gu Wei thought about this problem again, he already had a solution.

"Mr. Zhao, you discuss with Director Wu Jinyuan of [Chu Qiao's Biography] to see if he is interested in continuing to cooperate with us and directing this [Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost].

If you don't want to, let's find another director. ”

"Understood!"

"Mr. Yang, you go and talk to Li County's agent about this matter, and ask him to vacate the schedule for the second half of the year.

Yang Zi: I'll communicate.

If there are other actors in this play, let's choose from our company and [Jiaxing Media], and you can communicate with Mr. Zeng of Jiaxing when you go back.

When the director decides, let the artist come over to audition. ”

"Okay, boss!"
