In the past two years, mainland star actors have added a hobby, which is to read high-quality online novels recommended by their agents when they have nothing to do.
There is no way, since the "Kung Fu Doctor" trilogy was released in great popularity, it has even opened up the market in Southeast Asia.
Immediately afterwards, two TV series, "The Great Military Advisor" and "The Ming Dynasty Doctor" produced by Datang Film and Television became extremely popular.
The film and television adaptation rights of high-quality online novels suddenly became a hot commodity in the eyes of film and television companies.
At present, Starry Sky Director Studio has won the largest online novel platform in China, and it has all the copyrights of the top online novels in its hands, and no other film and television companies have anything to do with it.
But other film and television companies are not without solutions. They can't get the film and television adaptation rights for top online novels, but there is always no problem with the film and television rights for first-class novels.
Some that were not suitable for adaptation were not counted, but the rest that were suitable for adaptation into film and television dramas were snapped up in no time.
This has also led to many star actors in the entertainment industry having to spare precious free time to read some high-quality novels that have been bought by film and television companies for adaptation rights, so as to be prepared.
Of course, reading high-quality online novels is also a means of leisure and relaxation.
After all, the content of high-quality online novels that can be favored by film and television companies is naturally very exciting, and it is easy for readers to immerse themselves in it.
In fact, star actors who have ideas should also read famous science fiction novels. At least those soft science fiction novels that are not long and can be easily adapted must be read. If the opportunity is right, they can take advantage of it.
No joke at all!
The recent sudden rise of Starry Sky Director Studio is definitely a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.
I’m not saying there are no hidden rules, but overall it’s pretty clean.
The film and television dramas shot are mainly based on movies. There are very few romantic plots and very few scenes that are not suitable for children.
When choosing actors, the main focus is on suiting the role, without so many twists and turns and private exchanges of interests.
In a short period of time, a group of movie stars were launched, headed by Zeng Li.
Because of the good box office performance, the leading actors and supporting actors who participated in the filming of the film have risen rapidly in the ranks and have become a force that cannot be ignored in the entertainment industry.
How can any other actor not be envious and jealous?
The key is that these guys who suddenly rise to the top don't have to pay a heavy price, which makes other stars and actors even more unhappy.
Apart from anything else, Li Bingbing, who is known as the first sister of Huayi, put a lot of effort into the film "A World Without Thieves" produced by her own company, but in the end she just got a female supporting role.
It was this year that my luck came, and I collaborated with another big star, and also played the female lead in the company's new spy film "The Wind".
But even so, she still covets the film resources of Xingkong Director Studio, which has already opened up overseas markets such as Europe, America and Southeast Asia.
Not to mention that like Zeng Li, "127 Hours" became popular all over the world with the desert island survival genre. As long as it can successfully open the Southeast Asian market, it can be considered a victory.
However, what gives her a headache is that most of the films shot by Starry Sky Director Studio require a certain amount of skill to support them.
Apart from anything else, the upcoming "Kung Fu Doctor" series and the rumored "New Fist of Fury" series, which one does not require a certain level of skill?
Not only these two series, but also the latest soft science fiction "Six Paths of Beings" that Star Director Studio is planning to shoot will also require good technical performances.
Recently, Li Bingbing is actively working hard to train his skills according to the training methods taught in "Kung Fu Girl", and the effect is quite obvious.
No wonder Zeng Li, a Chinese opera student with a background in acting, turned into a veritable kung fu fighting girl after experiencing one "Kung Fu Girl" and three "Kung Fu Doctor" series.
It also confirmed the rumors that Wu Dong, the boss of Starry Sky Director Studio, is a kung fu master.
If you are not a kung fu master, how can you achieve such a good training effect by exercising in a movie that you personally directed and served as a martial arts director?
I heard that many female stars have begun to train their skills secretly, hoping to impress Wu Dong, a kung fu master, and let them participate in films produced by the director's studio.
Wu Dong wouldn't care about the series of chain reactions caused by the emergence of Starry Sky Director Studio.
This is a good thing, at least for the current entertainment industry.
Compared with all kinds of chaos in the entertainment industry, Starry Sky Director Studio is quite clean.
There are no messy things. As long as the actors working with the studio, the only thing they have to do is focus on the performance.
Some celebrity actors who don't want to get involved in the chaos in the entertainment industry can completely focus on cooperating with Star Director Studio.
Not to mention anything else, as long as you star in one or two films with good results and perform well, you can still get enough fame and fortune.
Without further ado, I was invited to attend the celebration banquet held by Datang Film and Television. Following Boss Li's request, I made clear arrangements for the next two key TV series in full view of the public.
You can feel that after he made his decision, the news spread immediately and the atmosphere of the entire banquet hall changed.
"Celebrating More Than Years" and "Returning to the Ming Dynasty to Become a Prince" are definitely rare and top-notch online novels. As long as they are not randomly revised, there is a high probability that they will still be successful.
Many actors present were aiming for roles in these two TV series.
Now that Datang Film and Television Company has made the decision to shoot one after another, some actors and stars have to start taking action.
This celebration banquet was quite successful.
Not to mention that the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, at least Boss Li, the boss of Datang Film and Television, was always in a pretty good mood.
After the celebration banquet was over, he invited Wu Dong to have a small gathering to talk about other arrangements for Datang Film and Television.
As an ambitious, rising, and well-funded film and television production company, it is natural that it will not just shoot two key TV series throughout the year, but also have plans for other TV series.
Of course, I also want to try shooting a low-budget movie to test the waters.
I hope to get help from Star Director Studio and Wu Dong.
Wu Dong was already prepared, and what he recommended was still online novels.
"The Days Living with a Stewardess" published in Cuiweiju, despite the ambiguous name, is a rare pure love novel.
In addition, there is a novel "My Beautiful Sister" similar to "My Sister is a Big Star", which tells the story of the struggle of two siblings, which is quite inspirational and passionate.
Wu Dong said that the drama "Living with a Stewardess" must be co-produced by Star Director Studio, and such a good story must be grasped carefully.
If done well, it will be another classic hit drama.
As for another TV series adapted from an urban novel, just extract the essence and film it according to the plot of the novel.
As for movies, he recommended the "Xiu Chun Knife" series.
The movie script has been created by Xingkong Director Studio. Datang Film and Television can buy it for filming, or it can cooperate with the studio to produce it.
Different from the later movies of the same name, the "Xiu Chun Knife" series created by Star Director Studio mainly revolves around the battle between the Donglin Party and the imperial power.
As a retainer of the emperor, Jinyiwei naturally had the role of charging into battle, but was turned into cannon fodder.
The overall style of the movie is a bit depressing, and the script is biased towards the historical direction.
In addition, Wu Dong suggested that Boss Li film the TV series of the same name as "Xiu Chun Knife" at the same time, and invite Ming history experts as consultants to control the plot of the TV series.
The struggle between the Donglin Party and the imperial power, as well as the situation of all the forces involved in it, must be clearly captured.
There can be a certain amount of joking, but don’t change it too much!
To be honest, the directors in history were completely messy when filming the movie of the same name.
Anyone who knows something about the succession of the Ming Dynasty will know that as a vassal king with no real power, Emperor Chongzhen was a pure transparent person before he became emperor.
Such a being is actually capable of plotting to kill the emperor's own brother, which is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world.
In addition, the images of civil servants in the movie are all positive characters.
In fact, that’s not the case at all!
If the film goes well, Datang Film and Television's brand will be firmly established in the film industry.
The box office performance may not be very high, but it will definitely not be too bad. A box office of over 100 million is a mark.
As long as "Xiuchundao" is successful, it can be extended to Jinyiwei and the East and West factories.
Throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, there is so much material worth photographing.
Unlike the Qing Dynasty, the first few emperors of the country were worthy of being photographed, and then the Opium War was defeated by the foreign devils' strong ships and cannons.
I don’t know why some directors and screenwriters like filming Qing palace dramas so much?
Officials, emperors and concubines have all been photographed, including salt merchants and Shanxi merchants. In short, it seems that there are endless stories and characters to photograph.
If one day he feels unhappy, he will simply make a movie about real money, so that those guys who love to watch Qing Dynasty palace dramas will have a good idea of what it means to be too ugly to be seen. It makes me feel happy just thinking about it.
Boss Li solemnly expressed his gratitude to Wu Dong for his suggestion.
At this time, as the country's supervision of coal production became more and more stringent, life for coal bosses gradually became difficult.
Boss Li's situation is no exception. His coal business in Shanxi Province has been greatly affected by the policy.
Many coal bosses in Shanxi Province have begun to sell their coal mines. They have a lot of money but don't know what industry to invest in?
Then, the real estate in the imperial capital skyrocketed, and at least millions of properties fell into the hands of wealthy coal bosses. Boss Li was definitely an anomaly among coal bosses. He actually established a firm foothold in the film and television industry early and developed rapidly.
