Chapter 22. Profiteering?
It is none other than you, who is now ranked first in the ratings of variety shows, and now it has only been broadcast for more than 1 month, Meng Fei, a little-known host, has already become a first-line host, and even Huang Yue and Wu Dong, who are guest hosts, have greatly increased their popularity.
How to measure how much has increased dramatically, that is, Wu Dong's popularity as a screenwriter, variety show director, songwriter, unknown film director, and vice principal of an art school is not as well-known as he has been a guest for a month!
The difference between the front desk and the back of the scenes is so big, of course, the number of viewers who know Wu Dong is not as good as Brother Hu or Wan Xi when multiplied by ten.
But in the entertainment industry, Wu Dong is already a name that cannot be ignored.
At half past 12, Wu Dong returned to Xin'an Building, and Yu Chenquan went to Fang Yunyao.
Wu Dong saw a text message from Xiao Yu in the car, the message was sent in the afternoon, and now in the middle of the night, Wu Dong has not replied.
A real night without words.
Wu Dong got up at 7 o'clock the next day to wash, and today he was going to Jinling TV Station to visit Deputy Director Gao.
In fact, Wu Dong doesn't understand, why did this matter fall on him, although it is a municipal TV station that is not a star, it is not impossible to find a director who can do a party, right?
There must be some unknown difficulties here!
But since they all agreed, they have to be taken seriously.
He was brushing his teeth and thinking about it, and in his previous life, he also participated in the preparation of the school's New Year's Day party; I have watched various galas for 20 years more than others, and I have been in the circle for more than a year; He is now not inferior to anyone in terms of level of appreciation or command ability.
Wu Dong rinsed his mouth, spit out the water, and shouted into the mirror, "Olli!" ”
"Damn! Why did I come to such a sentence! Then he shook his head with a smile.
——
Eight o'clock in the morning, Wu Dong Studio on the 18th floor.
"Yo, why are you all here, it's the weekend!"
Wu Dong pushed the door in, Mu Shengnan, Li Ran, Taishi Zhuohui, Hong Xuetao, Lan Yuechun and assistants Lei Xiaoxin and Tong Xiaorong were all there.
Li Ran laughed, "I am a shareholder now, so I am naturally full of fighting spirit." ”
Lan Yuechun and the new boss have actually only met twice, once for an interview, and once for Langlang Media to choose a location, she lowered her head and didn't speak.
Mu Shengnan said: "Today, Manager Lan and Li Ran and I are going to interview the candidates of the planning company, and I will send you the candidate's information when I go back, and if you want to meet in person, we will have a second round of interviews." ”
Wu Dong shook his head, "You decide, and leave professional matters to professional people." ”
The corners of Lan Yuechun's mouth turned up, and she raised her head to look at her boss.
Wang Hui took two girls to participate in the event, and Pei Jiaxue and a few of them were filming in Hengdian......
Seeing Wu Dong's gaze sweeping over, Tai Shi Zhuohui stretched out his hand, "Lao Hong asked me to discuss the script of the second part, and I want to ensure Brother Hu's role, or you can also discuss it together." ”
"Hello boss!" Hong Xuetao bowed to greet Wu Dong.
"Sit, sit, don't be restrained with me, Brother Hu, I still suggest that he focus on Heavenly Sword and Wonder, it's all my own people, so I won't tell lies."
Tai Shi Zhuohui nodded, it seemed that she had already talked to Lao Hong about this issue, "You can see that the boss has the same opinion as me."
If it weren't for the investors and producers, we wouldn't want to write a second part at all, and the possibility of a sequel surpassing the first part is too small. It's okay to make money, but it's too difficult to get the audience's approval. ”
"I haven't played a game, is this game based on a TV series really as good as you say?" Hong Xuetao asked hesitantly.
In fact, as Brother Hu's agent, he also communicated with Director Song Wenjing, and Song Wenjing doesn't play games, and she just thinks it's good just by reading the script.
She is willing to take on the filming more to repay Wu Dong's support in the past.
He just expressed a little doubt and stopped, people are bosses and they are wage earners, and he still understands when it comes to the point.
Wu Dong understood his concerns, and said calmly: "Lao Hong, in fact, many investors have read our adapted script, and their willingness to invest is not very strong, if their willingness to invest in the sequel of the Jianghu Billboard is ten, there is only one investment in Heavenly Sword and Heroes."
Sword and Fairy is an existence that can be compared to the Jianghu Billboard. ”
Wu Dong said casually, he turned his head to look at the clock on the wall and didn't look at other people's expressions at all, because this was a conclusion.
Mu Shengnan smiled slightly, and Li Ran whistled; No matter what Wu Dong brags about, these two people believe it.
Lan Yuechun has nothing to do with herself, she just thinks that the boss's confident energy is really handsome, and quietly twists the two long legs under the hip skirt sideways.
Hong Xuetao smiled bitterly, he probably felt that he was unlucky and fell into the fire pit again, and a boss who was too conceited was not as good as a bad boss.
Tai Shi Zhuohui never thought about these messes, "What about the script of the second part of the Jianghu Billboard?" ”
Wu Dong smiled, "The choice is given to the producers, it depends on how they choose, anyway, I also told Brother Li in the middle of the night last night about one point of view, and the tone is Shuangwen."
Audiences who like the Jianghu Billboard like the kind of refreshment of Zhizhu smiling and watching the situation, don't think about educating them.
Viewers want to be educated, they can go to college, there is no need to watch TV series! ”
The female screenwriter burst out laughing, "You can just say this kind of cheats everywhere!" I see, so let's wait. Whether they want a prequel, a sequel, or an extra, I can write it for them. ”
After chatting for a while, everyone went their separate ways, Mu Shengnan and they went to the interview, and Wu Dong went to Jinlingtai.
——
Tong Xiaorong is a native of Jinling, so she brought Wu Dong to the TV station with a light car.
Gao Xiaochun, deputy director of Jinling Channel, 52 years old, graduated from the Nanyi Directing Department in his early years, and has worked all the way from the choreographer of the song and dance troupe to the present.
Wu Dong talked to him on the phone, and also got his photos and basic information from the director of the Tibetan Bureau.
Tong Xiaorong's car was stopped by the doorman of Jinlingtai.
Wu Dong was a little surprised, he had an appointment with the deputy director, but no one received him, and the doorman didn't even know about it.
Seven or eight minutes after the phone call, a female secretary walked out of the TV station building quickly.
Jinling Television Station, Deputy Director's Office.
This is an east-west room, about 50 square meters, the door opens on the south side, and the owner is on the east side.
The female secretary used her right hand to invite Wu Dong in.
Wu Dong followed the secretary into the door, "Hahaha, Principal Wu, you are here, please take a seat." "Xiao Liu went to pour tea."
Wu Dong turned his head to the right, and Deputy Director Gao stood behind his desk.
It stands to reason that Zhang Bin will immediately be the deputy director of Suzhou Provincial Satellite TV, and his level is probably the director of Jinling Station.
Zhang Bin greeted Wu Dong at the door of the studio hall, the senior deputy director was in his office, and he didn't even step out of his desk.
A simple mahogany desk with only a computer and a few folders on the table, and a bookcase full of books in the back.
Wu Dong looked at this obscene bald man and couldn't help but think, "I don't know if there is a secret door behind this bookcase." ’
From the beginning of entering the door, Wu Dong has been a little strange until now, this person was the one who invited him to come at the beginning!
Originally, Wu Dong was not interested in being a director of the party, and he even put pressure on the Xinfeng Bureau of Culture and Sports to invite him, but he was treated like this when he came?
Opposite the deputy director's office are two sofas, and in front of the sofa there is a small square table.
Wu Dong didn't rush over to shake hands with him, Niang Xipi,, you begged Lao Tzu to come, who is putting the score now!
Wu Dong took out Huazi from his pocket, flicked a cigarette and flew it into his mouth, he sat down in a chic manner and calmly lit the cigarette.
Leaning on the sofa, Erlang's legs were cocked and a smoke ring was spit out, and Wu Dongcai looked up and saw the deputy director standing there awkwardly with his hands outstretched.
"Looks like I shouldn't have come?" Wu Dong glanced at him, his eyes cold.
Wu Dong is now a 24-year-old young man, and his status is also there, so there is no need to suffer from this nest.
He has come, and the face has been given to the director of Tibet.
If there are no tax incentives, then we'll see.
Traffic accidents are not picky.
The leader of the Bureau of Culture and Sports was hit by a mud truck at work, and unfortunately the high paraplegia or something had absolutely nothing to do with Wu Dong, he is not that stingy person, the studio has tens of millions of accounts, will he hire murderers to hurt people for 100,000? Impossible!
"This, Principal Wu, don't get me wrong."
The corners of Wu Dong's mouth twitched, from beginning to end, this guy has always called him Principal Wu, if you treat him as a director, Director Wu or Director Wu is a suitable title.
Deputy Director Gao's face was also very bad.
Secretary Xiao Liu brought Wu Dongduan a cup of tea. "You go out first, close the door."
"Okay!" The female secretary in her 20s nodded slightly to Wu Dong, then bowed to her leader and turned to go out.
She was wearing a hip-wrapping skirt, bare legs, and her back to Wu Dong when she bowed.
Wu Dong secretly said that the quality of being able to be a secretary to the deputy director of the TV station is still good.
The deputy director finally walked out from behind his desk, Wu Dong just wondered if it was because he was lame and inconvenient to walk, but now he looked, no, he just gave Wu Dong a dismount.
"Hahaha," Gao Tai walked up to Wu Dong with a smile and patted Wu Dong's shoulder affectionately.
The best way to alleviate embarrassment is hahaha, laugh first, you are not embarrassed, the embarrassed is someone else!
Face? What's that!
"Brother Wu is really young and vigorous! It's me who is confused, and I want to give you a dismount. Sorry, sorry. ”
Two-faced people, if you can't get off the horse, pretend to be sincere!
Wu Dong smiled, "Brother Gao, which one are you singing?" ”
"Drink tea, drink tea, listen to me slowly."
Seeing that Wu Dong was appeased by him, Gao Xiaochun turned around and returned to his office, took the thermos cup, and sat next to Wu Dong.
"Brother, we also have a lot of evening directors in the station, do you know why I have to invite you?"
"I'm curious at first, but it's just that for some reason everyone is reluctant to take over, you just want to find a puppet who is behind the pot!"
This thing is not difficult to guess at all, if it is a good thing, Wu Dong is not his own son, how can he stuff it into his hands.
“(⊙o⊙)? Oh", Gao Xiaochun was speechless for a while, and was actually guessed by Wu Dong.
After a moment of silence, Director Gao smiled bitterly, "There are three problems here, that's why I invited you."
The first problem is the ratings of the last five years, hehe, it's hard to say, CCTV, the Spring Festival Gala of each David TV has packaged all the good programs and well-known artists, we are here in a vicious circle, the ratings are low, there are no sponsors, and if there are no sponsors, the ratings will be even lower if you don't invite big names! ”
Wu Dong nodded slightly, who has seen the city-level Spring Festival Gala? Who will go to see it, is it so idle that it hurts?
"Second, hey, this party has to be done, and it has to be done! It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, so the directors in the station find all kinds of reasons to shirk. ”
"Third, the person who is hired for the top shift must be famous and obedient. It's one thing whether or not someone sees it, there are some 'artists' who don't have other platforms, and they either have a hard relationship or, hey, you know. This guy gave Wu Dong an obscene gesture.
Understood, the big names of the Spring Festival Gala in Jinling Terrace can't look down on it, and in the eyes of the 18th-tier starlets, it is also fragrant!
Take other people's hands are short, eat other people's mouths are short, and if you can't do anything, you have to meet other people's conditions.
Wu Dong laughed, "You still have to take advantage of the benefits, but I want to carry this black cauldron!" I thought I was young and easy to bully, right, give me a dismount and want to put the pot on me in a daze. ”
Wu Dong's face sank, and he was about to leave, "I'm sorry, I still have something!" Leave! ”
"Slowly, slowly, Director Wu, don't worry, listen to me." Gao Taichang hurriedly grabbed him.
"Brother, I'll be honest, a well-known party director won't come to our troubled waters, and the unfamous ones can't be looked down upon. Not only do you know variety shows, you have also made movies, and you have appeared in variety shows, and you are famous enough, let's look for you to reluctantly talk about the past. ”
Wu Dong sneered and did not speak.
He was sneering on the surface, but his heart was already happy!
Hahaha, it's none other than me, I won't be surnamed Wu if I don't knock you on this bamboo pole!
"Now that the words are all spoken, I won't hide it, 'Principal Wu', don't there are many teachers and students in your school who have 'quality'? You also have a favor to return, right? Director Gao smiled and deliberately emphasized the principal and quality.
Wu Dong smiled, he never owed favors.
Wu Dong turned his head and glanced at him, "There are so many shows for the duration, this one also owes favors, and that one also owes favors, what do you want me to do?" ”
Director Gao breathed a sigh of relief, and some of them were easy to talk about.
In his opinion, Wu Dong has not been around for a long time since his debut, and he is not a local, even if he has relatives and friends who want to arrange it in the party, there should be few of them, and if they don't want to offend people too much, they can't arrange their own relationships.
He miscalculated!
Wu Dong is a very responsible principal, and the teachers and students of New Century Art School are his relatives and friends.
Director Gao was ruthless, "That's it, the decision to stay in the end of the show is up to you!" ”
"Hahaha, you said it earlier!"
Wu Dong lowered his voice, "Which ones are necessary, you give me a ......"
There were only two of them in the room, Gao Xiaochun leaned over, "......"
……
When the secretary Xiao Liu nervously knocked on the door again and entered the house, Wu Dong and Gao Xiaochun hooked their shoulders like long-lost brothers.
It's crowded outside.
