At this time, Du Kang had figured out what his boss was thinking. He simply looked down on Ye Ming. Ye Ming invested 10 million to build a crew that was basically a grassroots team, and he wanted to challenge the heroes who invested 50 million.
The thing seems to be impossible to my boss, and the ants are overestimating their own abilities.
Moreover, the screenwriter of The Legend of White Snake is actually Ye Ming himself, okay? Ye Ming does write things that are very surprising sometimes, but that is writing songs. Is he that good as a screenwriter himself?
It's hard to say, and Jianghu Heroes is a gold medal screenwriter in the entertainment industry and there are more than one, so at this time, my boss is very confident in Jianghu Heroes TV series. That is a normal thing.
As for the compensation proposed by this guy Ye Ming, it is simply impossible. However, after Du Kang thought about it, it is true that in this case, Jiangnan Film and Television also has its own actors, and more than one of them can be regarded as entertainment
Some of the popular stars in the circle.
After all, Jiangnan Film and Television is also one of the largest film and television companies under the three major film and television companies.
Jiangnan Film and Television still has a lot of contracted actors, and if the films and TV series produced by its own company are not given priority, those actors will be alienated.
After all, these people have been trained for such a long time and have made a lot of contributions to the company. Even if the boss is more domineering at this time, he is not willing to act arbitrarily and will directly give up this place twice.
Once may be the actor's fault, but twice is a bit too much.
Think about it, it is a very normal thing for the boss to consider that. Everyone will take care of his own people, so Du Kang also came to the conclusion at this time that there is no room for negotiation on this matter. Ye Mingkai
The boss didn't want to agree to any of these conditions.
As for the provocation from the Legend of the White Snake crew, the boss just wants to wait and see. Basically, he doesn’t want to give Legend of the White Snake a chance to hype up. In his boss’s eyes, the crew of The Legend of the White Snake is considered
Touch porcelain.
He just wanted to use the reputation of the Jianghu Hero to create hype in order to achieve his own publicity purpose, so at this time Du Kang also understood his boss's instructions, and basically ignored the provocation from the Legend of the White Snake crew.
If the other party's crew is not particularly arrogant, you can ignore it at this time. The more you pay attention to this matter and call it "The Legend of the New White Snake", the more you will feel that you are taking advantage of it.
Of course, Du Kang also sided with his boss on this matter.
That is to say, of course you must support your boss in the company, otherwise you won’t want to continue to work.
The second is that Du Kang, as one of the investors in the TV series Jianghu Fangxia, also very much hopes that Interaction will become a hit. Otherwise, why would he invest in this TV series at this time?
Investment means having confidence in this TV series.
Of course, Wang Xiaoshu did not do well enough this time, but Wang Xiaoshu himself said that he did his best.
Du Kang explained this matter to his boss, and he got the result he wanted, which was almost the same as what he thought.
Therefore, such an incident, at least on the surface, is over. Originally, everyone thought that Jianghu Heroes and the crew should have a violent reaction. After all, Ye Ming has named the Jianghu Heroes crew to challenge them, so at this time Jianghu Heroes
If there is any strong reaction from the cast of Heroes or Jiangnan Film and Television, that is completely normal.
It is even possible for Jiangnan Film and Television to directly send a lawyer's letter to Ye Ming or apply for a subpoena.
But what was unexpected was that there was no particularly violent reaction from the cast of Jianghu Fangxia. Even the director just said one sentence and responded with facts.
As for the other people who will be on the film and television side, it seems like nothing has happened at all, or it may be that they simply don’t bother to argue with the New White Snake Legend here.
They seem to have invested 10 million in the crew, and most of the money is spent on special effects. How much money did the entire crew really invest in filming?
Even if the male and female protagonists are very economical and do not need to pay too high prices, they are the male and female protagonists after all, and the pay cannot be too low, so at this time, they can really invest money and items in the filming.
, which is relatively less.
But such a result is actually not what Ye Ming wants. Yaya sent a message and said: "The boss Jianghu Heroes crew seemed to have basically no reaction, so they said something to the reporter, saying that there was a kind of
Facts speak for themselves, that's what it means anyway.
Then, they acted as if this matter had not happened at all. We had already mentioned by name that the new White Snake Legend was going to challenge the Jianghu Heroes, but they remembered that they did not take this matter seriously at all, nor did they regard us as
This TV series was regarded as a threat.
So when it comes to such a matter, according to some informants we found or film critics in the professional field, some suggestions they gave us were that if we want to continue with this matter, Jiangnan Heroes also
Just cooperate.
If they don’t cooperate, it’s hard to say that this matter will really reach the top of the hot search list.”
Of course, Ye Ming had some expectations for such a result, so he said without even thinking about it: "This is normal. In fact, it is a wiser approach taken by the other party. If they respond
If it is too intense, then cooperate with our hype. This will drive our publicity, which is quite beneficial to us.
We don't have to spend a lot of advertising money to advertise, but the other party's boss or the other party's people have high-ranking people, so if we provoke them at this time, they don't actually respond.
This should be one of the best choices.
So we should also expect that they will ignore us. Think about it, they invested 50 million and became so many celebrities filming Edo. I think we only invested 10 million, and we also had to find some special effects and so on. This is really true.
The amount of money that will be used for investment may only be around 7 million, which is considered to be the biggest reservation I have made.
There is also the remuneration of actors. Although they are our own actors, they should be paid according to the market conditions. In this regard, it cannot be said that there is any possibility of frugality.
After all, people have paid for real performances, so at this time we have to give corresponding prices. So we claim to the outside world that we invested 10 million, which is of course not wrong, but what is the real use of the special effects actors?
The cost of filming is not particularly high, so I really want to invest 50 million at this time. Although their all-star lineup accounts for a large part, even if they invest much more than us, so
On such a problem, some things should be done as soon as possible.
Of course, such a thing is a bit regrettable. I think Li Jiangnan from Jiangnan Film and Television should be very angry, so he should cooperate with us to hype it up. This will be very beneficial to us in promoting the legend of the White Snake.
After all, we were promoting it as if it were a ploy, but we didn’t expect that the other party wouldn’t fall for it.
But there is no other way. If they are not fooled, then we can rely on our own efforts to promote things. Isn't it better to rely on our own efforts and have enough food and clothing than to ask others?
By the way, Yaya, how is the big scene I asked you to prepare before? Is there any progress? You have to work hard and intensify. We are not waiting for anyone here. It is estimated that the formal work will start in three days.
The filming has been completed, I have already found the script, and the actors have almost been cast.
So it basically takes three days to prepare. The filming officially starts on the third day. We must get this TV series as soon as possible, but you also have to work hard to cooperate."
At this time, Yaya nodded, picked up her work notes and said: "The current progress is almost the same as your plan, boss. We have rented one of the largest studios in the film factory and are building the exterior scenes we need later.
Now we are starting to shoot the part where one of your courtyard houses has been renovated into a courtyard house. The final stage of renovation has begun. There will be no problem after three days because we basically don’t need to change the layout of the entire courtyard house.
The interior of the room is also decorated in an antique style. Basically, the props and other things can be slightly modified to modify the interior layout, and then it can be used. It is very convenient to set up lights and other things. Our props and other things are mainly made in this aspect.
Work, I promise it won’t delay our filming in three days.
But boss, is it appropriate for you to do this? Good guy, I took a look at the script and realized that this thing can be saved as much as possible. The outdoor scenes are indeed a waste of money, but this thing of yours is too much for indoor shooting.
A little more.
Good guy, you save whatever you can, and you save on some things that I think shouldn’t be saved.”
Ye Ming said with a smile: "It's nothing. Some of the key outdoor scenes must be shot outside, such as breaking the wall and pressing down on the Leifeng Pagoda. This must be shot in real locations. This is
There is no doubt about it. As for saying that other things are not necessary and we are in a hurry, right? In fact, our company does not have no money. If we invest 10 million, there is not much difference between investing 10 million and investing 20 million.
If you want more locations, just invest more money. Our company has so much money in the bank, and the interest is just that. How much interest do we have to earn from a TV series, right?
This account cannot be calculated in that way. The first thing is that we must save costs. We should not spend money randomly when we have money. We should invest it in place. We will definitely not be stingy with money. We should not waste money. We should not waste it. We must develop the habit of saving and thrifting.
good habits.
The second is the issue of time. If we want to benchmark Jianghu Heroes and broadcast it at almost the same time as them, then we must rush to the time as soon as possible. If we shoot indoors, we will be able to rush the time as much as possible.
No, it allows us to shoot faster.
That's why we adopt this method for a TV series. The key is whether the plot of this TV series is attractive and whether it can be popular in the end and make the audience watch it episode by episode.
There are only two core points. The first is the actors, and the second is the script. Sometimes if you do these two well, you can get very popular ratings even if you make a sitcom, so you don’t
I think that if we have so few outdoor scenes, our TV series must be bad.
Our actors were selected by me personally, and they must be very suitable for our script, which can also stand the test of time. I am also confident in this. After all, I wrote it myself, so I am still very satisfied with our TV series.
of confidence.
Even if there are fewer outdoor scenes, the possibility of success is still very, very high, so you don’t have to worry about this and just do your preparations with peace of mind.
Once the filming of the TV series starts, I won’t have too much time for the company. I will trouble you for some things. If you can’t handle it, just go to the scene and see me. Anyway, I will put more thought into it in the recent period.
Put it on this TV series.
Also, I wrote two songs for this TV series, A Thousand Years of Waiting, and one called Duqing. As for these two songs, you should sort them out and let Zhao Yazhi and Damimi master them.
Let’s ask them to find a time to record these two songs as soon as possible.
Our company will be able to promote it when the time comes, right?
We must ensure that this matter has the greatest impact within a certain range. We do not spend a lot of money to promote TV series, but we can still do it by promoting it with our company. When the time comes, we will buy a few trolls to hype it up, and then
Well, we don't need to worry about it.
These two songs will definitely cause a sensation. As long as these two songs cause a sensation, they will also have a huge promotional effect on our TV series.
At that time, there will be a lot of agents to help us promote it. Anyway, we are going to take advantage of every available opportunity to launch this TV series.
The cost is not too high, but it doesn't mean that we can't achieve final victory. In the end, it still depends on the audience's acceptance of the TV series.
If the audience doesn't accept it, then even if you invest 500 million, you may not be able to make a bunch of bad movies. Jianghu Heroes, don't think that they are too tall and cannot be challenged. They are just one of our opponents. Our real
The challenge is actually those classic TV series before, not Jianghu Heroes."
