Chapter 90: I want to keep a low profile, too

When Xiao Chu walked into the film and television director's office, he found that he was not the only one, but also the production manager Zhang Songhe, the director Lu Gaosheng, and the producer Zhou Qing.

In the words of director Wu Chengliang, this is the troika of the crew, plus the director, the four core of the "Love Apartment" project are all here.

The new film and television director Ji Yuanshi sat behind his desk, his face was still a little dark, and he looked old-fashioned and serious.

It has been three days since he took office, and the whole company knows that this personnel adjustment is not a high-level struggle, and there is no undercurrent, it is purely because Yan Gaoxiang's body can't bear it, so he asks for resignation.

Wu Chengliang, the old man of the company, thinks too much.

Xiao Chu, a newcomer to the company, also thought too much.

After Xiao Chu, who arrived at the end, also sat down, Ji Yuanshi spoke: "When the filming of the "Love Apartment" project is so intense, I called the four of you here because I have an idea and want to communicate with you. ”

Xiao Chu and the four of them were all a little surprised.

Combined, this was the third time they had met the new director.

The first time was when Senior Vice President Tian Moran led the inspection and visit, the second time was the meeting of Ji Yuanshi to perform his duties, and then it is now.

But I hadn't communicated before, and this was the first time I sat down to talk.

The opening scene is so straightforward, and the style of this new director is really unique.

Among the four, Zhang Songhe's status and qualifications were the highest, and he replied: "Mr. Ji, I don't know what you have to say, please feel free to show me!"

Ji Yuanshi paused for a moment and said: "I have watched the first few episodes of the sample films sent back to the company, and I think the shooting is good, the rhythm is relaxed and bright, and it accurately captures the needs of the young generation on the Internet now, and has the potential to become a hit." ”

"So, I'm going to use this show as the basis to create a dedicated boutique sitcomic theater. ”

"It's not a slogan, it's a column, a brand. ”

"It's not just this show, it's a series, a sitcom theater that is unique to us at Dolphin Video. ”

"What do you think?"

After speaking, Ji Yuanshi looked at Zhang Songhe and the four of them.

The four of them are all surprised, you look at me, I look at you.

This is "Love Apartment" has not yet been launched, so it is expected to be a hit?

Specially built a melodrama theater is even more novel.

You must know that over the years, major video websites have filmed some sitcoms, but there is no big splash.

David TV has not broadcast new sitcoms for a long time, and the sitcoms that everyone can think of now are basically those high-quality dramas from several years ago, or even ten or twenty years ago.

Sitcoms have their own viewership groups, because the style is often suitable for all ages, but it also has its inherent weaknesses, that is, it is more difficult to write, and it is very difficult to shoot interesting and wonderful stories in a relatively small space and continue to attract audiences to watch. 、

After all, its main tone is consistent, mainly relaxed, without too many ups and downs, twists and turns.

This leads to the fact that the quality of sitcoms is difficult to guarantee, there are few high-quality products, and most of the freshness is relatively easy to get tired of, or aesthetic fatigue.

Therefore, general TV stations, unless the quality is really high, or the director and screenwriter have great influence, are not willing to spend money to buy sitcoms.

Many of them are local stations, filming some low-cost sitcoms with local characteristics, and placing them in the evening dinner time to pass the time and grab some viewership shares with news programs.

For major video websites, there are even fewer sitcoms that have been successfully launched.

Director Ji's idea of building a special sitcom theater really surprised Zhang Songhe and the four of them.

Unless "Love Apartment" is a huge hit, the excellent fire is not enough, at least it must be a hit, in order to really stand up this brand, otherwise it will definitely be a bamboo basket.

As for the potential and prospects of "Love Apartment", only Xiao Chu knew it.

At the beginning, "Love Apartment" may not be so popular and only popular among young people, but when it was launched in later seasons, it was definitely a hit, or even a phenomenon.

But Zhang Songhe, Lu Gaosheng, and Zhou Qing don't know.

The three of them who were older didn't speak, and Xiao Chu also waited first.

However, I secretly gave a thumbs up to the new director in my heart, which is unique and powerful!

"What do you think?" asked Epoch Stone again.

Zhang Songhe glanced at the other three again, thought about it, and organized the language: "Mr. Ji, I think this idea is very good, but is it better to wait for "Love Apartment" to be launched and see the effect before discussing it?"

"I'm also very optimistic about the market prospects of this drama, but after all, it hasn't been broadcast yet, and there are still certain unknown factors, in case it ......"

"Of course, I'm not looking down on "Love Apartment", as the initiator of the project, I'm really optimistic about it, but I just think it's better to be safe?"

Ji Yuanshi bowed slightly after hearing this, but Yan Gaoxiang's evaluation of Zhang Songhe appeared in his mind.

He is more than steady, but his courage is a little lacking; he can be a general, but it is difficult to be the commander.

He looked at Lu Gaosheng again, "Director Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Gaosheng replied: "Mr. Ji, I agree with Manager Zhang's opinion, and it will be more appropriate to make a decision after "Love Apartment" is launched." ”

Ji Yuanshi nodded, looked up at Zhou Qing and Xiao Chu again, and asked, "What about you two young people?" ”

Zhou Qing said lightly: "I think I can give it a try, anyway, it's just a column, even if the brand can't stand up in the end, it's nothing." ”

"There are so many brands that have failed over the years, and this one is not bad. ”

"The cost of trial and error is not high. ”

Ji Yuanshi was satisfied after listening to it, and finally looked at Xiao Chu, "Xiao Xiao, what about you?" "Love Apartment" is a play written by you, what do you think?"

Xiao Chulang replied: "I think "Love Apartment" can be popular, and it is also a good idea to launch a situational theater. ”

"There are only 20 episodes of "Love Apartment" at present, and after it becomes popular after it is launched, it can be filmed for the second and third seasons...... It can definitely support this brand. ”

"And once it has established a good reputation, it can attract huge and stable traffic, and in the future, if the website wants to create other boutique theaters, Zhuyu will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort." ”

Zhang Songhe, Lu Gaosheng, and Zhou Qing all looked at Xiao Chu in surprise.

Xiao Chu has always been humble and low-key in the past, and it is the first time that he has expressed his views so clearly and actively.

Xiao Chu saw their surprise and smiled slightly.

There is no way, he also wants to make "Love Apartment" his trump card in his hands, and the idea proposed by Director Ji is just in line with his goal.

And with the achievements of his previous life, he is really confident, and he is not afraid of being slapped in the face at all.

The success of "River God" proves that those excellent film and television dramas in the previous life can also be successful in this world.

What else?

I also want to keep a low profile, but the "strength" doesn't allow it!
