Chapter 90 Tomson’s first product, the premiere of the new drama
Liu Shishi and Wei Yang didn't stay at home for a few days before they were caught by their agent to go filming. Wei Yang was not idle either and continued to work on "My Love from the Star".
Magic City, Lujiazui
"Our Tomson Yipin is adjacent to Binjiang Avenue, backed by the Huangpu River, and in Feng Shui...the smallest unit has an area of 434 square meters and the largest is 1,243 square meters. It is known as the first luxury house in China..."
The person in charge of Tomson Group explained that Wei Yang did not pay attention to the terrain and layout here, and he had no intention of buying a house here.
Compared with these, he is more concerned about whether the decoration of the house itself meets the shooting needs.
But after all, they intended to provide a house for free for the filming of "My Love from the Star", saving the crew hundreds of thousands in rent, so it doesn't matter if I say a few words.
Wei Yang and others visited the two houses and looked around. They found that the decoration was good, exquisite and luxurious, and the exteriors were also beautiful.
But there is a problem. The male and female protagonists in Wei Yang's drama are neighbors, so the layout of the house should be two households on one floor.
But Tomson Yipin has one floor per household. If it were changed to upstairs and downstairs, the effect would not be outstanding.
But there is no solution. You can shoot the two houses separately and edit them to create the illusion that they are adjacent. Then the relevant plots such as the corridors and balconies can be set separately.
This is very common in film and television dramas, such as "Wulin Gaiden".
The end of the stairs at Tongfu Inn is just a corner. When you open the door, there is nothing. Tong Xiangyu's room and the guest room have separate settings.
The same is true for the roof. The audience thought it was being filmed on the roof. In fact, the crew built a separate tiled roof with a height of no more than two meters. With one camera, it was impossible to tell.
Landscaping like this alone is a bit troublesome, but the cost is much cheaper than finding two additional luxury houses for a fee.
There is no shortage of luxury houses in the devil, but it is hard to find free ones. Wei Yang also got in touch with Tang Chen Yipin by chance.
Tomson Yipin has become very famous in later generations, but its current position is a bit embarrassing.
It started pre-sales as early as 2005 and was officially launched in February 2007. The selling price was as high as 110,000 per square meter, setting a record for domestic real estate prices, so it is called the first luxury house in China.
However, although Tomson Yipin is famous, the price is too high and it cannot be sold at all. The transaction volume since its opening has been pitiful. It is reported that only 2 to 3 sets have been sold in total.
To put it bluntly, the current real estate market is not that crazy, and it is more popular for rich people to live in villas.
Spending tens of millions to buy a large flat floor that is not popular, coal bosses are not that reckless.
In the original time and space, Tomson Yipin announced an official price reduction two months later, in March 2009, to RMB 50,000 to RMB 70,000 per square meter, which was almost half of the opening price.
Such a severe price reduction also shows that Tomson Group cannot hold on any longer and is eager to sell to regain blood.
At this time, Wei Yang came to the door with "My Love from the Star" to ask for sponsorship. Tomson Yipin, who was eager to promote the sale of his house, could no longer hold back.
Anyway, if the house can't be sold, it's just idle. If you don't spend money on advertising, why not do it.
As a result, the two parties hit it off immediately, and Tomson Yipin rented the film "My Love from the Star" for free, and the crew also advertised Tomson Yipin in relevant plots.
Wei Yang didn't think it was a scam. You must know that as the real estate market boomed and flat-floor flats became popular, the housing prices of Tomson Yipin also continued to rise, with the peak housing price reaching nearly 300,000 per square meter.
It was a huge profit to buy at this time. If Wei Yang hadn't come up with the money, he would have wanted to do something himself...
…
After signing the contract, the right to use the two 596-square-meter houses temporarily belongs to Wei Yang until the filming of "My Love from the Star" is completed.
To be honest, Wei Yang is still very new to this kind of top-level mansion.
In his previous life, he had been working around for so many years and bought a 105-square-meter two-bedroom apartment in Shanghai. Later, he was promoted and his annual salary increased. He was reborn before he even started thinking about changing his apartment.
Originally, Wei Yang was somewhat scornful of such super large flat floors. In his opinion, a house of more than 200 square meters is quite sufficient, and the area is too much wasted.
But when Wei Yang actually sat on the sofa in the living room, which was several dozen square meters, and looked at the scenery of the Huangpu River through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he felt that he was still superficial.
Big is better!
If there is no waste, it means that there is still not enough money. This spacious feeling of being able to skateboard at home is not ordinary.
Seeing several staff members who were following the view and looking equally shocked by the world of rich people, Wei Yang patted one of them on the shoulder and encouraged him with sincere words.
"Everyone, if you work hard, there will be bread!"
Looking at several highly motivated young people, Boss Wei was very pleased. He just pointed at his brothers to make money to buy him a house...
Wei Yang did not create the set for "My Love from the Star" himself, but made some requests.
Fortunately, the heroine Fan Qianqian is originally set up to be a big star with little culture, so as long as she looks luxurious and high-end, the male patron Professor Gu has to be more particular.
After all, he is a 500-year-old alien, so his aesthetics and style must be in place.
The art team has formulated two styles. One is minimalist style. As long as the colors are well matched, it will have a sense of high-end. It may not be outstanding, but it will never be overwhelming.
The other is the new Chinese style proposed by Wei Yang, which is elegant and has certain Chinese elements.
The cost of Chinese style is definitely more expensive, but it doesn’t matter if you save on rent.
Today's idol dramas are all in Western style, with the Chinese style being more conspicuous, and more or less in line with the settings of the male protagonists in the drama from ancient times to the present. His character is somewhat restrained, old-fashioned, macho, etc.
And regardless of the original plot or the current plot, it is set that the male protagonist collects a bunch of antiques, which fits well with the Chinese style.
Wei Yang prefers the new Chinese style, but you still have to look at the renderings. If the finished product is not satisfactory, then use the minimalist style with a very high minimum limit.
…
While Wei Yang was selecting the locations himself, other work on "My Love from the Star" was also progressing smoothly.
Several relatively major actors successfully finalized their contracts, and Qiao Zhenyu was finally chosen as the second male lead.
Yan Kuan didn't know whether he didn't like it or wasn't interested, so he declined the invitation.
But soon, there were media reports that Yan Kuan had starred in Dead Girl's "Beauty's Scheming".
One thing to say, it is hard to say that Yan Kuan is targeting Wei Yang. He and the dead girl are students in the same class, and they have a good relationship. It is normal to help out and make a cameo.
But I can’t stand the fact that the two crews of “My Love from the Star” and “Beauty’s Scheming” are currently competing with each other.
So I don’t know whether it was the media who just watched the excitement and didn’t take it too seriously, or whether it was because the damn girl deliberately bought the draft for the sake of hype. Yan Kuan’s rejection of “My Love from the Star” to switch to “Beauty” soon became a hot news.
Wei Yang was not someone to be trifled with, so he immediately returned the favor.
"Beauty's Scheming" actually contacted Yuan Hong and Liu Shishi at the beginning, but later they gave up because they couldn't agree on the salary and role.
This was revealed later when Cai Yinong had a fight with the dead girl, and now Wei Yang has used it.
Liu Shishi had a schedule conflict, but Yuan Hong was not that busy and helped Wei Yang play a guest role as a police officer.
So soon, the news that Yuan Hong gave up the role in "Beautiful Heart" and guest-starred in "My Love from the Star" also spread widely on the Internet.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
Wei Yang had a fight with the dead girl, and Yan Kuan and Yuan Hong were implicated. They were somewhat innocent, but fortunately both parties knew what was going on, and they didn't offend anyone.
It doesn't matter even if you are really offended, everyone has their own circle, and sometimes you have to make a choice to take sides...
"My Love from the Star" and "Beauty's Scheming" are unabashedly tit for tat.
The media and netizens are going crazy, especially the Tianya Forum, which is now the home base of melon-eating people. Some people have begun to sort out the timeline and prepare long-term records.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen two crews that are so passionate!
Moreover, they are all well-known and well-established. It is a rare melon field that has been rare in several years. You will definitely have to wait for the show with a small bench.
The two crews were so happy that they even sent people in vests to Tianya to scold each other.
The main battlegrounds are Fan and Lin. These two have been enemies for many years. They don’t even need to tease each other, the fans can just go ahead and start fighting on their own.
Fan Xiaopang definitely has more fans, but she also has a lot of anti-fans who can't stand her, and there are also some rival fans who fish in troubled waters. Lin Xinru's fans + Fan anti-fans + some other fans, the two sides are somewhat evenly matched.
The consequence of this is that the exposure and popularity of the two crews are increasing day by day.
Especially for "My Love from the Star", Fan Xiaopang's popularity is not limited, and he is paired with Wei Yang, a new screenwriter + a new niche actor. It has attracted a lot of attention, and it is definitely among the best among the TV series that started filming this year.
"My Love from the Star" also struck while the iron was hot, announcing that the crew would officially start filming in mid-February.
Not long after, it was officially announced that "Beauty's Scheming" would start filming in early summer.
There is no way, their kind of costume drama takes longer to prepare, and it is jointly produced by multiple companies, and there are some disputes with each other. Unlike Blue Whale, the funds come from outside the industry, so they can go into battle lightly.
And when "My Love from the Star" was about to start filming, after several months of post-production, "Twinkle, Twinkle Star" was finally ready to be piloted.
Tang Ren is quite confident in this drama and contacted three local TV stations at once.
Hunan Province Literature and Art Channel, Shandong Province Quancheng and Fujian Province Xiamen TV Station
The first Hunan Province Literature and Art Channel covers the entire Hunan Province, and the following two prefecture-level city TV stations are also considered to be good among municipal-level local stations.
Tangren was able to find such a good premiere platform because Tangren + Wei Yang gave the TV station confidence.
Especially Hunan TV. After watching "Twinkle Twinkle Star", they were very satisfied with the quality of the series and even intended to buy it.
That's why it was arranged to be premiered on a sub-channel, in order to be known as "Twinkle Twinkle Star".
On February 6, 2009, Quancheng TV Station took the lead in broadcasting "Twinkle Twinkle Star", followed one day later by Xiamen TV Station.
Because the previous drama was not finished on the Hunan TV Literary Channel, it was not officially premiered until February 11th.
Although the broadcast time is the latest, the influence of the provincial sub-channel is far greater than that of the two prefecture-level city TV stations.
The next day, reports about "Twinkle, Twinkle Shining Star" appeared in bulk in local print media and the Internet in Hunan Province.
"The first broadcast was brilliant, the average local ratings were 5.9, Wei Yang and Liu Shishi's new drama easily topped the list and won the championship"
I have something to do at home, so I’ll make up for it tonight
