Chapter VI Proposal
It's not difficult to draw storyboards, and basically every director can draw them.
In the eyes of professionals, different directors have different storyboard styles.
After all, everyone looks at things from a different perspective.
For example, when a mother sees that it is raining, she may wonder if her child has brought an umbrella to school
When it rains, an office worker may wonder if his boss will fall and not have to work overtime tonight.
This is a different way of looking at the problem.
In fact, whether it is a movie, a TV series, or a novel, the themes expressed are often similar.
Praise love, praise family affection, miss friendship, praise patriotism.
It's always these emotions, the director, or the writer, who don't look at what they express, but how they express it, how they tell the story.
Lee is not a dead brain, nor does he feel that he needs to make more adaptations, the original work has been very successful, and he does not need to add other ideas.
In the cramped rental room, while recalling the plot, he drew the storyboard as it was.
Although he is not original, he still feels a great sense of accomplishment when he sees the manuscript paper one by one.
Chinese directors in this era will not make idol dramas, or disdain to make idol dramas.
Whether it is a director from the mainland, Hong Kong or Taiwan, the idol dramas filmed are actually not beautiful.
Even "Meteor Garden", which is about to become popular, actually relies on the good looks of one man and two men, and it can be said that there is no merit in other places.
If you take a screenshot of any picture, you will feel cheap and impetuous.
There is no soil for the development of idol dramas in the mainland, and Hong Kong and Taiwan are those directors who want to save money, everything is simple, in a hurry, and the effect is a lump of defense.
This is why Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas can be popular in the mainland, Annam, and Malay Chinese, but no one watches them in other places.
It's ugly.
Who wants to see fake dying sets, and cheap costumes that are similar to roadside stalls.
Korean dramas as a whole borrow from the filming system of beautiful countries, although many of their costume dramas look very awkward and simple, but the fashion dramas are basically costumed, the pictures and music are very good.
This is why Korean dramas can become popular, but Chinese dramas cannot.
"Love Hotel" will be the first TV series filmed by Li Shengyao, he hopes to shoot it well-looking and beautiful, and he is particularly serious about painting storyboards at this time.
"Brothers, drink."
"There is wine today and drunk today, and the flowers can be broken and must be broken."
"Lao Tzu just touched that girl's ass, it's really cool."
In the hallway outside the rental house, a group of people are going crazy again.
Li Shengyao frowned slightly, and then blocked all external interference and concentrated on doing his own thing.
He drew quickly, and by the time he went to bed, he had already drawn two episodes of the storyboard manuscript.
……
In the early morning of the next day, Li Shengyao got up early, then washed up, and then went outside for morning exercises.
Yanjing is the capital in the end, there are still a lot of parks, he ran in the Lotus Pond Park next to the West Railway Station, practiced boxing, practiced for an hour, sweated, and then walked back satisfied.
Passing by a small stall, he bought three cages of meat buns.
Li Shengyao likes to eat meat, and he is not happy without meat.
He doesn't like to be a vegetarian very much.
He feels that he eats meat all at once, the whole person is much more energetic, and he is not easy to get sleepy, of course, for the sake of nutrition, he will still eat a lot of vegetarian food.
Back in the rental room, Lee continued to draw the shots.
As the name suggests, the drama "Love Hotel" mainly tells the story of a big hotel.
This "Grand Hotel" is actually a five-star hotel, with dining, accommodation, fitness, and other entertainment facilities.
In general, there are fewer places where the set is needed.
Just look for a sleek and modern five-star hotel.
In this case, Li Shengyao also painted the storyboard very quickly.
He drew two more episodes in one morning, and Lee Shengyao estimated that he would be able to draw the ninth episode before going to bed tonight.
That should be good enough.
But......
Li Shengyao tore open the instant noodles in his hand, put the dough cake into an iron basin, then poured the hot water he had just filled into it, took a book, and covered it on the iron basin.
He's still too young, and he doesn't look like a director, but like a field handyman.
Although the coal boss is nicknamed the nouveau riche, he is not really a fool.
If Li Shengyao was the coal boss, he would not invest his money in a young man.
Unless he doesn't care, he doesn't expect to get back to his original cost at all, he just wants to play with it.
It's just such a generous coal boss, I don't know if he can meet it.
Li Shengyao thought about it and looked at the storyboard manuscript in his hand, there were already four episodes of manuscripts, which should be enough.
He might as well be more prepared.
For example, make a planning book and let the coal boss see that his drama has a great hope of making money.
Li Shengyao thought for a while and felt that this idea was correct, and he had to do something comprehensive.
He then put down the storyboard manuscript and began to write the planning book for "Love Hotel", starting from the very first script, talking about the benefits of this script and the development prospects.
Then he analyzed the investment of the play, from the salary of the actors, to the wages of the field workers, as well as the props, as well as the expenses of food, accommodation and so on, he wrote them down one by one.
It is written that this drama will be filmed in Shanghai.
The reason why I go to Shanghai is naturally because Shanghai is the most fashionable city in the mainland.
Idol dramas must be beautiful, the characters should be beautiful, the scenery should be beautiful, and all kinds of pictures should be fashionable and beautiful, so that people can yearn for it.
Then comes the prospect of the show.
At this time, it is like some big dramas and good dramas, which can sell for 200,000 episodes, and more ordinary ones can generally have 70,000 or 80,000 episodes.
"Love Hotel" has a total of 28 episodes, and if it is based on 70,000 episodes, it can sell nearly 2 million.
If the cost is 1.5 million, excluding nearly 25 percent of the tax, it is not profitable, and it is barely recouped.
However, this is only the first round of broadcasting rights, if the ratings are good, there will inevitably be a second and third rounds of broadcasting in the future, and there will be some money at that time.
In addition, this drama was later remade in several regions and countries, and the copyright fee is not low.
Of course, Li Shengyao can't write it, he will write the broadcast rights, and he doesn't plan to write the copyright.
The copyright of the script he wrote naturally belongs to him, and the coal boss only has the broadcast rights of the first three rounds of dividends.
Just like that, I wrote while thinking about it, and I wrote it until the early hours of the morning, and Li Shengyao completed the planning book of "Love Hotel", and then he set the alarm clock and went to sleep.
Closing his eyes, he couldn't help but think of tomorrow, if the coal boss could agree to invest, he would be able to complete the original accumulation.
In the previous life, this drama exploded in the bend, ranking second in the annual ratings, at least 100,000 episodes, and it can be recouped in just one place.
Thinking of this, Li Shengyao immediately sat up, and the broadcast rights and dividends distributed to the coal boss should only be in the mainland, excluding bends.
He then started to revise the plan, and the part of the broadcast right dividend was only limited to the mainland.
After revising the plan, he closed his eyes, but he still couldn't help but think about it for a long time before falling asleep.
