While the whole country is celebrating the holidays, people in the film and television industry have different thoughts.
That night, Feng Wanqian was not the only one standing in front of the TV.
In the courtyard of the capital city, the cool autumn breeze cannot stop the arty elegance.
Under the moonlight, there is a small pavilion with all kinds of wine and food. Four or five people are invited to drink together under the moonlight.
While we were drinking and drinking, the topic couldn't be separated from someone in Shanghai.
"Do you think that boy can do it?"
A thin man in his forties, with a protruding mouth that could not hide his buck teeth.
"That's nonsense. What has he ever done? After filming two movies and gaining some fame, he feels he can do anything, right? He even challenged Feng Wanqian..."
The other person has a square shape and insists on shaking his fan even though the weather is not hot.
"I saw him building a tall building, and seeing his building collapse, the ancients did not deceive me. Just wait and see, that kid won't make a big mistake this time."
The person at the main seat didn't know how much he had drunk, and his eyes were quite blurry.
"Okay, let's let everyone see who is the expert in film and television. If you don't share the pot with us and poach our people, this matter... you have to calculate it carefully."
The other man was wearing a jacket, had wine in his stomach, but his expression was not good.
"You should take it easy and don't act recklessly. When the trap is revealed, no one will be able to save you."
His words made others dissatisfied.
"Wang Chu, are you too cautious? In all these years, what troubles have we not seen? To put it bluntly, in these four-nine cities, when it comes to making movies and TV series, is there anyone better than us? All of this
We have all the best directors and actors in China right now. We are just a naughty kid in a shabby place like Shanghai. We can crush him to death given his size."
Wang Chu chuckled, looked at a few unruly people, and only said one sentence.
"You are big? Haha. Do you know that by the third quarter of this year, Starlight Entertainment's net profit was 480 million. What about you?"
As soon as the words fell to the ground, there was silence in the pavilion.
The other three people were stroking their wine glasses, their faces burning.
Buck Teeth couldn't help but take out a cigarette and lit it several times without even lighting it.
"I just don't understand. What has he done to make money?"
Wang Chu leaned back on his chair and sighed.
"The movies he made, even though the literary and art circles have bad reviews, saying they have no content and no ideas, but the people like them. How can the people have high cultural literacy? They are beautiful and exciting, and the people like to watch them. Unlike
The stuff you filmed is carried by thieves one by one. The content is godly and docile, and you still preach from a high place. Can the people not be annoyed? He has produced a total of three dramas so far, and all three of them have been hits."
I asked Buck Tooth for a cigarette, and Shi Shiran smoked it.
"The film and television side is fine, but you don't know about the music side, right? Jingcheng TV wanted to take a stab at it, but now it's defeated."
The fan was waving in surprise.
"We are all from Jingcheng Station, so of course we know the basics. Director Yu and the others are not easy to get along with, so why did they give in?"
Wang Chu waved his hands impatiently.
"It's nothing unusual. There's no innovation and no technology. I forced it on and copied what others had done. As a result, the content was tacky and I didn't even do safety work. I was caught in the foot and the trouble was brought to a higher level. Even the program
They all stopped."
The person in charge still does not believe in evil.
"That's nothing to worry about. After all, where is this? The capital city. We are natives and come from the compound. No matter how powerful he is, can he still get on top of us? Again, if you don't like it, look for opportunities.
Just slap him."
Looking at a group of guys with high-level eyesight, Wang Chu shook his head, tried to wake himself up, and shut up.
He has already said it clearly. If he is still awake and falls into trouble, he will be completely benevolent and righteous.
"Hey, by the way, the TV series is about to start, right? Open it and see how good our talented producers are?"
He gloated when he spoke with buck teeth, and took the initiative to turn on the TV.
Xiao Qian and Feng Wanqian fell into conflict, and this incident was aroused in the circle. That is to say, there is no Weibo in this era, otherwise it would definitely be at the top of the trending search.
At the beginning, everyone felt that Xiao Qian was overestimating his abilities, offended Feng Wanqian, and blocked his path in the film and television industry.
Who would have thought that the young man was so angry and so stubborn that he actually announced his challenge to do an action movie.
Haha, who in China doesn’t know that without Mr. Feng Wanqian, can we shoot action scenes?
During that time, the basic argument was that Xiao Qian was going to fail.
Unexpectedly, half a year later, a new drama will be broadcast on CCTV.
"Wang Chu, why didn't you take care of me back then? If CCTV blocked it, this kid wouldn't have anywhere to cry now."
Hearing the buck-toothed nonsense, Wang Chu pretended to use a wine glass to praise him.
"Fart. The TV drama production center is Yang Yuan's territory. Can I get in? He's very popular right now. I heard he's going to be promoted again soon. It's too late for me to become the third grandson."
The person at the main seat said bitterly: "Traitor. The trouble with the Chinese people is all the fault of the traitor. You said that Yang Yuan is a cadre of CCTV who doesn't help us in the Beijing circle, and he is a little brat from Shanghai."
Mix it all together, where is his face?"
Wang Chu's face darkened and he had to stand up.
"Be careful. CCTV is the CCTV of the people of the whole country, not your family. If you can't control your mouth anymore, you will get the result sooner or later."
These words were serious and made the wine table feel dull.
Everyone has his own thoughts, which only leads to irritability.
Fortunately, the big buck teeth came into my mouth at this time.
"Here we go."
Now everyone's attention has shifted to the TV.
There is actually not much difference between the film and television industry and other industries. If you want to become bigger and stronger, there is only one thing you can rely on in the end, and that is products.
Because film and television terminals need to be delivered to the hands of viewers for consumption in order to generate value.
If the quality of film and television dramas is not good and the audience does not buy it, then the interests will be damaged.
No matter how showy the advertisements are during the distribution process and how sophisticated the marketing strategy is, whether it can be converted into real profits still depends on the quality.
It’s true that bad movies have high box office, but it’s definitely not the norm.
Unless you do something like buying box office and ratings, the audience's reputation will ruin any publicity.
In the Chinese TV industry in 1995, there was no concept of ratings, let alone buying ratings.
Whether a drama is a hit or not depends only on the response of the audience.
Everyone looked at the TV attentively, not even missing the title of the film with their mean eyes.
The appearance of the five characters "Works of Mr. Xiao" immediately aroused sour comments from those in charge.
"Tsk, so angry."
After all, he couldn't hide the envy in his eyes.
Anyone who is engaged in film and television production wouldn't want to do something like this?
It's a pity that except Mr. Xiao, no one else recognizes him.
Besides, this form has now become Xiao Qian's signature.
If someone else does it, it's not just trying to imitate others.
They are all respectable people and cannot afford to embarrass this person.
When the five gilt characters "Xiao Gongzi's work" appeared, the opening song was already playing.
Listening to the impassioned melody of "Who Belongs to the Hero" and Tu Xiaogang's impassioned accent, I hummed with buck teeth.
"This grandson is so good at making music, so he can just make music. Why is he here to film?"
Several other people nodded one after another, their eyes turning redder.
They have been working in the film and television industry for many years and have almost mastered the rules. A good theme song can greatly improve a drama.
"Who Belongs to the Hero" has been aired on Shonan Channel for a long time, and it has become very popular recently.
It can be used as a theme song and is obviously better suited to the plot.
Along with the theme song, scenes of plot flashed by, and the eyes of several people became serious.
Although there is a glimpse of the leopard, the exquisiteness of these pictures made several people feel pressured.
"This grandson is really spending a lot of money. Is this Sony's latest camera?"
The buck teeth are really bared.
"One costs hundreds of thousands, and I have to go to Japan to order it. When I was filming last time, I wanted to buy it, but the producer refused to pay for it. You said that we are all good at making movies, but he is a TV drama maker.
What are you showing off for?"
The sour smell in the small courtyard was even stronger. Fortunately, no one was paying attention that night.
The shock brought by the images captured by the new camera has not dissipated. As soon as the first episode started, several people burst into roars.
"Fuck!"
No one could move an inch. Looking at the scene of the soldiers killing each other, these guys were all dumbfounded.
Can TV series still be filmed like this?
Wang Chu was holding the wine glass and his arms kept shaking, causing the wine to spill all over his clothes.
But he didn't care, his face was livid, and he only said one word.
"Eat...eat poop...!"
After hearing this, several other people looked like dead mothers who had eaten shit.
