In the entertainment and culture industry, the timelines of producers and audiences are different.
The timeline of the audience is based on the launch of the product.
When a movie is released, a TV series is broadcast, a program is launched, a song is released, and the outside world sees the specific content, it triggers discussion and enthusiasm, and it becomes the focus of the current entertainment and culture industry.
But this focus actually only belongs to the audience.
For the producer, when the work has been released, it is a thing of the past.
At the end of 2002, "Li Wei Becomes an Official" was launched on Beijing Satellite TV and became an instant hit, making the drama a hot topic again.
In early 2003, "Jade Guanyin" met the audience. The superb acting skills of Sun Li and others received unanimous praise, which also made Sun Li jump from a little flower to a first-line actress.
But within the Starlight TV series, both "Li Wei Becomes an Official" and "Jade Goddess of Mercy" are already completed projects.
Only Starlight Management will take advantage of the craze to package and promote artists and pocket all the profits.
Starlight TV series has already begun preparations for new projects.
"Who will take over this golden family?"
Xiao Qian waved the script casually, and his posture did not look like he was discussing serious art topics, but more like a cabbage seller in a vegetable market.
But in his eyes, the script is like cabbage, but in the eyes of several directors, it is a peerless treasure.
"I'll do it, I'll do it, I'm good at filming this kind of scenes."
Shu Xiuyun was not polite at all and grabbed it directly.
Who says women are inferior to men?
Seeing her tiger-like ferocity, other directors could only rub their noses helplessly.
The script of "The Golden Family" is very good, and anyone with a discerning eye will know it is a hit at a glance.
Xiao Qian doesn't care about their competition. Nowadays, the directors of Starlight are all at the same level. They have mature scripts and under Starlight's scientific production system, there is actually not much difference in who directs.
Since Shu Xiuyun has taken on the role of "The Golden Family", let's talk about this drama first.
"The male lead, Jin Yanxi, will be played by Chen Kun. He is currently filming Swordsman. He will report to your crew when it is over."
If Xiao Qian's words were heard by the actors in Starlight, their eyes would be red.
This Chen Kun is not from Xingguang, so why does Mr. Xiao care so much about him?
Lin Pingzhi, the star of "The Swordsman" again, actually got the male lead in "The Golden Family".
Is Mr. Xiao just looking at Chen Kun's handsomeness and having ulterior motives?
What?
You said Chen Kun is a man?
This is nothing in the entertainment industry.
The taste of some characters, let alone men, even if they are not human...
Xiao Qian didn't know these people's slander, otherwise he would have to blow their heads off.
The style of the role of Jin Yanxi is too qualitative. In his impression, no one can play it well except Chen Kun.
In his previous life, Chen Kun's performance was perfect, so he would be doing two things without doing one thing.
Compared to the male protagonist, the heroine Leng Qingqiu is Xiao Qian's most thought-provoking role.
The original actor did not disappear in the time and space transition, and is still active as an actor today, and also appeared in the Spring Festival Gala with the cook.
But Xiao Qian didn't want to find such a person to act in his drama.
All I can say is that it’s a pity that Pan Yueming knew better.
"Let Sun Li play the role of Leng Qingqiu."
Sun Li's temperament is enough to handle the role of Leng Qingqiu, her acting skills are also top-notch, and the scent of books on her body will definitely make people shine in the atmosphere of the Republic of China.
The character who can't really be found is actually Liu Tianxian.
I don't know where this girl went, and no one was found, so Xiao Qian had to find another way to recruit her.
"As for Bai Xiuzhu, let Tang Yan play it."
Without the original version, Xiao Qian had to look for an image and a similar temperament.
Tang Yan is more gorgeous than Liu Tianxian, and is more in line with the setting of a wealthy lady. It is just difficult to perform the stunning performance of Liu Tianxian and Bai Xiuzhu when she appears, but it is enough.
He had already thought of a candidate, but Shu Xiuyun was very worried.
"Mr. Xiao, Tang Yan has played a great heroine like Ren Yingying, but now she has to be a supporting actress. Is she willing?"
Xiao Qian's face turned cold.
"The most important thing for an actor is to play the role well. Playing a suitable role is better than anything else. If she doesn't want to, let her calm down for a while."
What Xiao Qian hates most is stealing roles and stealing scenes.
Because anyone who does this is not doing it out of consideration for the quality of the drama, but purely out of selfishness.
If someone dared to do this in his play, he wouldn't mind letting the offender experience the majesty of a father.
Seeing that he was angry, Shu Xiuyun quickly shrank her neck. At the same time, she quietly decided in her heart that when contacting Tang Yan, she must make Xiao Qian's attitude clear.
Little girl, you can’t be stupid!
Xiao Qian arranged three protagonists and left the others alone. Everyone had already adapted to it.
Since he didn't say anything, it means that the other characters are not important and the crew can make arrangements by themselves.
This is not only the power Xiao Qian gave to the crew, but it is also their responsibility.
If the casting is not good, go back and wait to suffer.
Once the Starlight TV series is put into operation, there will definitely not be only one work. Depending on the strength of the company, multiple works can be operated at the same time.
"Love that travels through time and space, who will come?"
"I, I, I, I said I will come, no one is allowed to rob it."
Bai Yongcheng wanted to raise his hand, but Yang Shujian slapped him on the table, and Yang Shujian took the script into his hands.
"Mr. Xiao, don't you care about workplace violence?"
Amid everyone's laughter, Bai Yongcheng complained with grief and indignation.
Xiao Qian won't care.
"There is a gym in the company, and you don't have to spend money to exercise. You have built up muscles all over your body, and you are still afraid that you can't beat him?"
When Bai Yongcheng heard that he was going to do ironwork, he was extremely disappointed.
For a person like him who is tired even from sitting, it is impossible to roll an iron, not even in this life.
If he couldn't snatch Yang Shujian away, he had no choice but to admit it.
"Let Xu Tiezheng be the leading actor."
As soon as this was said, everyone was convinced.
Xu Tiezheng's three popular TV series have already established his position and formed his own style. Similar to this kind of innocent character with a bit of comedy, he doesn't think twice.
And although this guy has a bald head, he has a childlike face, is round and tender, and is very popular with the audience.
"Where is the heroine? What do you think?"
Zhang Ting, who plays the heroine, could not be found either, so Xiao Qian gave full play to the collective wisdom.
Maybe someone else's good luck just now gave him the courage to open his mouth.
"Tao Hong!"
Xiao Qian didn't say anything, just stared at him with a 77777 look.
The murderous aura that hit his face made the man understand the danger, and he quickly shrank his head, trying hard not to be discovered by Xiao Qian.
Tao Hong has already collaborated with Xu Tiezheng in two TV series, and they are still a couple. Although the results are very good, the audience is tired of watching it.
If the two of them cooperate again, not only will they not be able to play the role of CP, but they will also cause discomfort to the audience.
Fortunately, Xingguang still has more talents, and someone else suggested: "The role of Xiao Xianxian has a clear image, lively personality, and a bit of a pistachio look. There is a young actor named Wang Luodan who might be suitable."
Of course Xiao Qian knew Wang Luodan. After comparing it, he found that this proposal was really good.
"Then contact the other party. I hope the schedule is suitable."
In recent years, major colleges and universities have indeed produced many promising actors with good quality, but Xiao Qian did not take advantage of his rebirth to sign up for Starlight.
The more he gets into the operation of the entertainment and culture industry, the more he discovers that actually having too many artists is not necessarily a good thing.
Even if the artists are all famous, too many people will hinder the development of the company.
When an artist becomes popular, it is certainly very profitable, but the cost of operating an artist cannot be underestimated.
Moreover, there is also the problem of resource conflict, which limits the scale of entertainment companies.
Even with the scale of Starlight, it is unable to provide enough and appropriate resources to the company’s artists.
Unless you learn from the entertainment companies in your previous life, you don't have to worry about whether the artist is suitable or not. Anyway, you can arrange everything together, so you don't have to worry about insufficient resources.
But doing this creates another problem.
The quality of film and television works will inevitably be greatly affected.
Although in the past, many entertainment companies adopted a hype-heavy and traffic-heavy approach to make up for the lack of quality of film and television works. However, the further this approach goes, the more serious the drawbacks become.
The audience is not stupid. Once or twice is fine, as time goes by, the audience will know sooner or later that the plays performed by certain artists cannot be watched at all.
Just like Principal Wang said, for some plays, as long as you look at who the actors are, you will know that they are definitely rubbish.
Xiao Qian attaches great importance to the quality of film and television works, and of course he does not allow his company to go that far.
As a result, controlling the scale of artists is an issue that must be considered.
Xiao Qian, Weng Zhian, and Xu Jiayi even discussed plans to slim down the company's artist lineup.
