Chapter 60 Film and Television Industry Layout

Author: This month once Teru Furukawa

"Little cutie, do you have any dates soon?"

At 10 o'clock in the morning in Shanghai, Chen Heyu sat on the wicker chair on the balcony and dialed Li Xian's number.

He rubbed his swollen head. He was dragged to the hotel by Xiao Yang last night, on the pretext that he was going to make up for the wedding banquet. Together with the staff of Shanhai Film and Television, he was noisy for most of the night and drank a lot of wine.

After waking up, I thought of business.

"Mr. Chen, you should call me Li Xian, or Brother Xian. Please spare me, please."

On the other end of the phone, Li Xian smiled bitterly. Since "Want to Meet You" became a hit, he has also liked the title of "little cutie" and "little angel" thanks to his role as Mok Junjie.

At first, only fans would call him that, but later, good friends in the industry also started to call him that.

"There is an online drama, are you interested? It has the second male lead."

Chen Heyu finished his greetings and officially got down to business.

"I'm interested, I'm so interested. Do you have the script? I'll take a look first."

Li Xian became excited. Although when Chen Heyu asked if there was a schedule, he knew that resources were going to be thrown at him. When it was confirmed, he couldn't help but be excited.

Even though he signed a contract with Sugar Man, there is one brother in the company and several newcomers waiting to be promoted, so competition for internal resources is fierce.

"The script will wait for two days, as long as you have a schedule. Then I will ask the company to go over and talk to Sugar Man."

Chen Heyu is still dragging his feet. He originally planned to go back to Lucheng today, but he can only give up temporarily. He will have to stay in Shanghai for the next few days to clear up the script.

After "Shading the Sky" was finished half a year ago, I lost the good habit of typing every day and my temper became a bit slack.

The book reviews were full of loyal readers who "spoiled" him, wishing him to fail his business as soon as possible and return to Qidian Code Wen as soon as possible, which made him smile bitterly.

After pouring a glass of water, Chen Heyu sat in the study, opened his laptop, and named the folder he just created "The Brother Who Sleeps on My Upper Bunk."

This 2016 campus love drama once led a wave of craze. If it were not for the broadcast platform problem, it would definitely have the potential to break through the industry.

Chen Heyu is not worried about this, because this drama is planned to be developed in cooperation with Penguin Video. With this big mountain at his back, after optimizing the script and improving the quality of the online drama, are you still worried that it will not surpass the achievements of the previous life?

The background of the story takes place in Dormitory 330 of Hucheng University. Four boys with different styles experience various tragedies and joys on campus and grow up step by step. It combines elements of youth, love, campus, and comedy. It is a drama that young people love to follow.

Interestingly, both Li Xian and Cheng Xiao starred in the original version, and the future male star Xian also played a bull-headed brother in this drama.

Thinking of this, Chen Heyu smiled and asked, "Do you want to change Li Xian's character?"

Forget it, let’s stick to the original version. Anyway, it’s the second male lead. The more tragic his experience, the more attractive he is to the little girls.

For the next three days, he stayed in Shanghai, relying on takeout for three meals a day, and devoted himself to writing the script.

After finishing it, I sent it to Xiao Yang's mailbox and left him a message on TT, reminding him to read it first because he has an appointment with Li Xian and Cheng Xiao to go to the company to read the script tomorrow.

Chen Heyu stretched his body, put on a set of sportswear, and ran a few laps along the path in the community before going home to take a shower and sleep.

"Come back tomorrow?" Luo Wenwen asked on TT.

"You still have to stay in Shanghai for two days, why do you miss me? Se Se.jpg" Chen Heyu smiled knowingly when he saw the message and replied to her.

"Sorry, I forgot to think about it today. I will definitely think about it tomorrow."

"Then I won't go back. I'll wait until you miss me, hehe." Chen Heyu replied.

"Has the script been finished?" Luo Wenwen changed the subject.

"It's done. I'll go to the company tomorrow. If nothing else happens, we can officially start filming before the Spring Festival."

"Thank you for your hard work, remember to rest early."

"..."

After chatting on and off for half an hour, he coaxed his girlfriend to sleep. Chen Heyu glanced at the time before turning off the light and going to sleep.

the next day.

Chen Heyu went to the Shanhai Film and Television Office Building. This area was basically filled with film and television production companies, or music production companies, all clustered together.

I originally rented a six-story small office building located in a corner of the park.

The fifth and sixth floors are the training room, editing room and conference room, and the first floor is the lobby front desk. The decoration style is small and fresh, and the door is filled with green plants.

Currently there are few signed artists and few projects, so the whole building looks deserted. Chen Heyu smiled, it seems that more artists should be signed.

There were Christmas stickers on the glass at the door, and he walked in.

"Hello, sir, do you want to make an appointment?"

Standing at the front desk was a beautiful girl who was 1.7 meters tall. When she saw Chen Heyu walking in, she asked with a smile.

This must be Lao Xiao’s handiwork!

He despised in his heart, and then said to the girl: "Are you just joining the job?"

"How do you know? However, you look a bit familiar."

The girl was giggling. It was obvious that she had just graduated not long ago.

At this time, Li Xian and his agent also walked in. When they saw Chen Heyu, they said enthusiastically: "He Yu, long time no see."

His manager didn't dare to call him that, and said politely: "Mr. Chen, let's go up together."

Chen Heyu nodded, took the lead and passed the girl towards the elevator.

Only then did the girl realize that this was the script "Li Ziwei"? It was also her big boss, but she didn't recognize it. How stupid.

Come to the fifth floor.

Xiao Yang and Cheng Xiao were already sitting in the conference room, and the remaining people were all staff from the TV drama division.

"Mr. Chen, let me introduce to you. This is Ma Qiang, a top student of Sichuan Film and Television. He has directed several popular TV series and has just joined Shanhai Film and Television."

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

Ma Qiang behaved very humbly. He had indeed filmed several TV series, but none of them made a splash. Xiao Yang's introduction was also a pat on the back for him.

After all, who would come to a small company like Shanhai if they have the ability?

"Hello, Director Ma, I have long admired your name, and welcome to Shanhai."

Although Chen Heyu has never heard of this person's works, the scene must be done well, he replied with a warm smile.

After completing the process, the assistant distributed the scripts printed in advance to the creative staff.

Xiao Yang was responsible for introducing the core framework and story of the drama, and then mentioned that this is a collaborative web drama with Penguin Video.

Cheng Xiao, who was still a little repelled by online dramas, suddenly became more energetic. What happened to online dramas depends on the platform. If it is Penguin, it doesn't matter.

"Cheng Xiao will play the first male lead, Li Xian will play the second male lead to show appreciation, and Lao Xiao will be the one to make the final decision."

After Xiao Yang finished speaking, Chen Heyu added another sentence.

Li Xian had no objections and signed the contract readily. After talking about the business, he asked Chen Heyu to tell him that he was going to have a dinner together in the evening. He invited Lao Hu, Wu Qian and others.

Chen Heyu thought for a moment, but declined. If he hadn't had no funds at the beginning and had brought Han Dongjun and Wu Qian into Shanhai Road earlier, how could he have been able to gain advantage from Sugar Man.

Thinking of this, he invited the heads of the artist department and IP development department to have a small meeting.

"The artist department must also work hard to sign some new talents, so that internal projects within the company will not lose resources."

"Help me find these people, sign them before they debut, and recruit them after they debut."

Chen Heyu said to the artist department manager Liu Xiaowan, who nodded in agreement, glanced at the list, and silently wrote it down.

"Dini Reba, Yu Shuxin, Zhang Ruonan..."

Liu Xiaowan was confused by the string of unfamiliar names, but when the boss spoke, she had to work.

"Manager Zhang, the IP development department is actually the department I value most, and I have high expectations for you."

After Chen Heyu explained to Liu Xiaowan, he started to draw cakes for another manager, but there was no deception in this sentence.

Which of the TV dramas that will be popular in the future is not an adaptation of a popular IP novel? I didn’t have money before, but now I am rich. Of course, I must seize the market and stock up on some film and television copyrights of the novels in advance.

Zhang Peng, manager of the IP development department, replied, but he didn't believe it in his heart.

"The copyright of these novels is the next focus of your department. Don't let me down."

Chen Heyu also sent a list of novels.

Please vote for recommendation ~ I wish you all to get rich every day ~
Chapter completed!
