Two days later, Xiao Chu finally wrote the second episode of the script.

After going to the company, he printed three copies of the synopsis, outline, character biography, and script content, and went to find the teacher Li Wenqian after binding.

In the office of the senior planning consultant, Li Wenqian carefully flipped through the pages one by one, and the more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes became.

When he finished watching the last scene of the episode, he closed the script, looking stunned, and seemed to be a little unsatisfied.

"Teacher, how is it?" Xiao Chu asked in a low voice.

Although he is very confident in this Republic of China suspense drama with an excellent reputation in his previous life, this is the first drama he "moved in" after all.

Whether the world's high-quality dramas are equally popular in this world, he doesn't dare to guarantee 100%.

Seeing Xiao Chu's slightly apprehensive look, Li Wenqian showed an elegant smile and said, "I'll tell you the truth, I'm amazed." ”

"No wonder you kid wants to sell Guanzi, it's really unusual, it brought me a surprise!"

"The suspense drama of the Republic of China, mixed with market life, the characteristics of the times, and folklore, is down-to-earth, and full of mystery and suspense, which is in line with the curiosity and mystery psychology of the young generation on the Internet. ”

"The characters such as the little river god, the little goddess, the old river god, and the detective who speaks a lot of Jinmen dialect are also very distinctive. ”

"The most important thing is that this kind of suspense theme of the Republic of China with market anecdotes, folklore, and both true and false, has never been done before, it is very brilliant and novel, and it will definitely be popular when filmed. ”

"Good!"

Li Wenqian finally closed the coffin with the word "very good" and expressed his affirmation and appreciation.

Xiao Chu smiled, hearing these words, his heart was steady.

In fact, when choosing which suspense boutique drama, he took a lot of thought.

When he heard that he was going to make a suspense drama, he quickly went through all kinds of suspense themes in this world for the first time, and found that the mainstream on the market was either a mystery detective drama or a zombie female ghost drama, and a theme like this mixed with market anecdotes and folklore had not yet appeared.

After discovering this "virgin land", it is self-evident which direction to choose.

Among all the suspense works in the previous life, the most popular is undoubtedly the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series, from physical books, to audio, movies, and TV series, all of which are sought after by everyone and are popular in the Chinese-speaking circle.

Several TV series versions such as "Exquisite Ancient City" and "Angry Qing Xiangxi" are also a double harvest of word-of-mouth and ratings, and they can be written directly.

However, Xiao Chu did not choose "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in the end because there is one more requirement to be met - low cost.

What the company wants to do is an online drama with a limited budget, and the world structure of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is magnificent and grand, and it costs a lot of money to do it well.

It is the pearl of the suspense works of the Republic of China in Xiao Chu's mind, and he doesn't want to destroy the beauty in his heart because of the budget.

Therefore, in the end, Xiao Chu chose "River God".

"River God" is also from the hands of Ba Sing, and after being adapted into a TV series, the results are also very good, and the reputation is excellent, which triggers a movie-watching boom, and before Xiao Chu crosses, there is also a second part.

On top of that, it's also a web series, and it's within the budget.

"Teacher, do you say that this "River God" is in line with Manager Zhang's taste?" Xiao Chu asked.

Li Wenqian shook his head and smiled: "Fu is not to his taste, I dare not say, but as a senior producer, I believe he will definitely be able to see the market value of this drama." ”

"Well, don't be so overt and secretly urging me, I'll go to Lao Zhang, just wait for my good news. ”

Xiao Chu pretended to be stupid, "How can I have-the teacher walks slowly!"

Li Wenqian glared at him angrily, "You stinky boy......"

After scolding, he picked up the manuscript and walked to the manager's office.

......

Zhang Songhe, manager of the production department of Dolphin Film and Television, is a middle-aged man with ordinary appearance but strict work.

Many years ago, he was an associate professor at the Modu Film Academy, and he was an old friend of Li Wenqian, and Lao Li would come to Dolphin as a part-time senior consultant, which he took a lot of effort to pull.

Seeing Li Wenqian coming in, he asked, "Lao Li, is there something?"

Li Wenqian raised the manuscript in his hand and said, "Xiao Chu's script is finished, I read it, I think it's not bad, and I'll show it to you." ”

Zhang Songhe was a little surprised, "So fast?"

Li Wenqian smiled proudly: "That's, don't look at whose apprentice it is." ”

Zhang Songhe took the manuscript and replied while flipping it: "It's only been three days, and you got it out in such a short time, are you really so optimistic about the manuscript of your proud protégé?"

Li Wenqian said: "If the quality is not up to par, I don't have the face to give it to you." ”

Ten minutes later, Zhang Songhe finished reading the manuscript.

Li Wenqian asked, "How is it?"

Zhang Songhe groaned for a while and said, "Lao Li, you go out first, and I'll reply to you later." ”

As soon as Li Wenqian saw him like this, he had a score in his heart, Shi Shiran went out, "Okay, I'll wait." ”

......

It didn't take long for director Lu Gaosheng and professional producer Zhou Qing to walk into the production manager's office.

Zhang Songhe handed over a manuscript and said, "It was written by Xiao Chu, a student of Li Wenqian's advisor, take a look." ”

Lu Gaosheng and Zhou Qing were a little suspicious, and after opening the manuscript, their eyes soon became very bright, and their faces were a little surprised.

After they all finished reading, Zhang Songhe asked, "How about it, tell me your opinion?"

Lu Gaosheng and Zhou Qing glanced at each other.

Zhang Songhe said: "Lao Lu, you are the director, you talk about it first." ”

Lu Gaosheng is about the same age as Zhang Songhe, paused, and said: "I think it's very good, first of all, the script integrates the life of the Republic of China and folklore, and the theme is very novel; ”

In the prologue, the eldest young master of the Ding family was chased by the man in black late at night, and was desperate and forced to jump into the river. ”

"The first scene of the feature film, the Baihe Ceremony, is full of mystery and mystery, and the scene and momentum are also very magnificent, which can quickly catch the audience's attention. ”

In addition, the old river god in the back lit a cigarette to identify grievances, which is also full of imagination, amazing, and very romantic. ”

"To sum up, it's very high quality and has good ratings prospects. ”

Zhang Songhe nodded and turned to Zhou Qing, "Xiao Zhou, what about you, what do you think?"

Zhou Qing is a young man in his early thirties, who looks relatively shrewd, and when he heard Zhang Songhe's words, he replied: "I am a producer, from the perspective of production. The main scene in the play is a wharf, as well as several courtyards and western-style buildings, all of which are available in film and television bases, which can be filmed. ”

After listening to the words of the two project leaders, Zhang Songhe showed a smile on his face and said, "It seems that we have the same opinion, so the new project will be on this play?"

Zhou Qing nodded in agreement.

Director Lu Gaosheng hesitated for a moment and said: "Manager, I haven't read anyone else's manuscript yet, isn't it good to set it directly at this time?" After all, among the screenwriters who submitted their intentions, several of them have something to do with the old people in the company. ”

Zhou Qing pursed his lips.

Zhang Songhe raised his eyebrows and said: "Then let's do it, let's decide this "River God" for the time being, but don't announce it yet, wait for other people's manuscripts to be handed in, and then take a look, if there is no more brilliant, choose it." ”

"The two of you can prepare all the matters first, I am very optimistic about this "River God", even if I finally choose other dramas this time, this drama will not give up. ”

"In order to start filming as soon as possible and improve efficiency, I will also ask Lao Li to notify Xiao Chu and continue to write the next episodes, and once it is decided, filming will start immediately!"

Lu Gaosheng and Zhou Qing nodded together.
