Chapter 20: Reputation Points: Rookie of Wulin

After Chen Mengxi came to Beijing, she was busy with Mingxi Studio...

Making a TV series does not mean buying copyrights or investing. You have to find a suitable director.

Director, Huang Lei recommended Teng Huatao, Mingxi has no objection...

Although Teng Huatao is not good at making science fiction movies, he is very good at this kind of life drama that is full of family matters!

In addition to the director, you also have to find a good coordination!

The overall coordination of TV series is more important than the director. The overall planning must be determined based on the crew’s preparation and script volume, including the shooting arrangements for internal and external scenes.

A good coordination can make the filming work twice as hard as half the effort…

The preparations are done, and the filming is officially started. The progress is very fast. On average, a TV series with thirty episodes has about 15 pages per episode, with a total of about 450 pages. Two sets of shooting can be about ten pages a day. Basically, the shooting ends in two months...

For Chen Mengxi, the most important thing is to get to know each other through filming "Double-sided tape", so he is the coordinated drama...

The most important thing in coordinating with the team is to establish a good relationship with the producer and the TV station’s film purchasing department...

The ultimate goal of making a TV series is to sell it!

"Double-sided tape" is considered to be appreciated by Teacher Huang Lei. The two sides cooperated and Huang Lei has a wide circle of contacts. He has a close relationship with the directors of several TV stations of Oriental Satellite TV and Beijing Satellite TV. Basically, the TV series he participated in can be sold to first-tier TV stations!

However, whether the next drama can work together is a question mark...

Even if we can work together, we should discuss who is dominant.

In short, in half a month, Chen Mengxi was busy like a grandson...

I didn't have time to pay attention to my two books.

He has full confidence in "Ghost Blows Out the Light". After all, the original version sold over tens of millions of copies, and was called the most widely circulated Chinese novel after Jin Yong...

What's more, this time there is "Rose Red Lotus" to be sold together.

Now half a month later, 80,000 copies of "Rose Red Lotus" have been sold out, and 100,000 copies have been printed twice. 100,000 copies have been printed twice. 100,000 copies have been sold for the second time. 80,000 copies have been sold for the second time. I will prepare for the printing three times...

A bunch of people on the Internet discussing "Ghost Blows the Light", all of whom are saying that Chen Mengxi is a professional fighter, and even there are people on the Internet. They are not skinned or questioning the pens. The reason is very simple. They want to rob the tomb with him, or ask Chen Mengxi to help appraise treasures...

It is said that someone bought donkey meat and specifically told the boss to leave donkey hooves...

Tsk, netizens are really whimsical!

If you really want to encounter a zombie, you will get rich. Grab him, lock him up, collect tickets to watch, and sell one ticket for one hundred yuan...

I have a little zombie...

Ahem, mainly because "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is very commercial!

A book called "The Secret Technique of the Sixteen-character Yin and Yang Feng Shui" takes the lead, and the fantastic tomb robbery story of Hu Bayi's "Golden Captain" begins.

The opening work, "Jingjue Ancient City", Kunlun Glacier, China-Mongolia border, XJ's Black Desert...

Hu Bayi and his brothers held the Bagua copper compass and recited "Looking for Dragons and Dividing Gold to Look at Chanshan", broke through the nine-story demon tower and escaped from the abandoned fortress of the Japanese army!

Such fantasy stories are particularly popular this year!

Plus the newspaper serialization...

Tsk tsk, if Chen Mengxi's character was a screenwriter of Little Transparent, the original author who was ignored by Li Shaohong, and a poor person who was kicked out of the crew by Yingda, now his character is a best-selling novelist!

Chen Mengxi only has one requirement for "Ghost Blows Out the Light". The right to adapt film and television is determined not to be sold to the public, and the others do not matter.

In just half a month, Chen Mengxi and "Ghost Blows Out the Light" have become hot words...

If it were a hot search these days, he would have been on the hot search list long ago!

It is much more convenient to become famous. For example, he found Ning Hao, who immediately made time to meet him...

...

"Crazy Stone" is indeed in the late stage, and there is really no money...

Liu Dehua originally said five million, but later he only gave three million...

With this investment alone, Liu Dehua is enough to write into film history, really!

Once a person enters the comfort zone, it is easy to breed laziness due to the influence of the surrounding environment. Laziness has terrible ability to spread, and what awaits him is the waste of popularity.

In 2005, how recession was the film industry?

Not to mention anything else, the highest box office in mainland China is "Wuji", which is 1.6 yuan...

Then there is "Myth", 91 million...

It was under this premise that Liu Dehua spent tens of millions to be the "Asian New Star Director". In the first session, he praised Ning Hao and the second session.

Of course, Wu Ershan's "Swordsman" is not as famous as "Crazy Stone"...

The problem is that even if there are three million, it is still a bit difficult to make "Crazy Stone". Ning Hao himself spent 500,000 yuan, and he has made all the money he has earned in the past few years...

Just in time, Chen Mengxi came with funds.

Chen Mengxi is preparing to invest half of the investment, which is 1.5 million. Ning Hao said that he spent nearly 3.8 million, so he invested 1.9 million...

We must first convince the biggest investor, Liu Dehua's Yingyi Entertainment.

After all, the movie has been completed. If you add it at this time, won’t you give me some sincerity?

What is sincerity?

Of course it is a premium investment!

For example, one to twice the cost price...

But the problem is that if Chen Mengxi intervened in this project, would Liu Dehua not care so much about "Stone" like the original time and space?

Original time and space, "Stone" was a big hit. In addition to the movie itself, Liu Dehua's publicity role is also inseparable - he was present in the publicity of several big cities...

Many people who come to watch movies are because of Liu Dehua's star effect.

...

Chen Mengxi was watching the edited "Crazy Stone". After watching it, he applauded and asked: "Do you draw on "Two Big Smoke Bowls"?"

"Yes, I really like Gerich's way of editing and telling..."

"Multi-line narratives can turn an originally plain story into a fancy one, but the actors you are looking for are not familiar with, which will create a sense of alienation, and it is difficult for ordinary audiences to enter the plot..."

"I don't have the money to hire a big actor, so Xu Zheng still joins for free with zero pay!"

Chen Mengxi picked up again: "The picture is a bit too rough..."

Ning Hao felt a little embarrassed: "The cost is only 3 million, so it can only be shot with high-definition digital, and then magnetically converted to glue later, so... the picture color is seriously insufficient!"

"...Before filming next time, I'll find our Mingxi Studio. Such a good book and such a rough one, it's a pity..."

Yu Weiguo, the person in charge of Yingyi Entertainment, who was also the producer of "Stone", heard Chen Mengxi's words and asked, "Will Boss Shen think this movie can make money?"

"It's hard to say, it depends on the promotion and distribution..."

"China Film Group is willing to take over the distribution..."

“What about the publicity plan?”

Promotional plan?

Yu Weiguo is a Hong Kong producer and has participated in many film planning by Liu Dehua. In the Hong Kong area, the promotion is to lay posters and tell the audience that Andy Lau’s new drama is released, so everyone can come and see it!

What specific plans are there...

Yu Weiguo was stunned for a moment and then asked back: "Does Boss Shen have a specific publicity plan?"

"This cannot be said unless you are willing to hand over the promotion of "Crazy Stone" to us!"

"Of course this can..."

Chen Ge Mengxi's map is revealed: "It accounts for half of the total cost..."

Yu Weiguo immediately shook his head: "No, that's too much..."

Chen Mengxi patiently explained: "Not many, look, I want to lay out posters, advertise, contact theaters, TV stations, and the Internet for interviews and roadshows. I also have to invite a group of film critics. Magazine praises our movies. After a series of processes, no one can do it at all without two million!"

“…Then how much can the box office increase if you promote it like this?”

"It should be no problem for ten million!"

Yu Weiguo was a little confused: "I'll ask the boss..."

Chen Mengxi was stunned for a moment...

Damn, Hong Kong people are so easy to cheat?

It’s nothing to say. You just trusted Teacher Shen, and you still have to ask the boss?

I don’t think about his current reputation - a martial arts rookie!
