The investment in a costume drama is not small. After all, the costumes and props must be well-made, and the requirements for the scenes are relatively high, so the funds will naturally increase.
However, they didn't know that "Wulin Gaiden" basically didn't use outdoor scenes, it only used them in Tongfu Inn.
Although there is no Tongfu Inn here, Chen Mubai can build one.
Considering the problem of the inn, Chen Mubai specially marked the structure of Tongfu Inn and prepared to create a real scene!
Because of Chen Mubai's popularity abroad, "Wulin Gaiden" is his new work, so the popularity is superimposed, and many people are paying attention to this drama.
"Crazy Stone" has proven Chen Mubai's comedy ability, so can this costume sitcom be successful again?
Mubai Entertainment's new move has indeed received a lot of attention, and many people in the industry are also waiting and watching.
It can be seen from the recent works of Mubai Entertainment that they represent high-quality products and trendy trends. Once they achieve great results in a certain aspect, many people will imitate and follow their style, and they will always be able to enjoy the soup from behind.
For example, this is true for the first online drama "Diaosi Men", and later urban dramas "Struggle" and "The Era of Naked Marriage".
Chen Mubai's "Diaosi Men" became popular, and a lot of online dramas followed his model to create this kind of sitcom. It is a collection of simple jokes. Many netizens will also watch it while waiting for the update of "Diaosi Men".
Go take a look at works of the same type and have a laugh.
In fact, this kind of work does not matter whether it is true or false. The main purpose is to make everyone happy. The quality is relatively rough, the audience's stickiness is not high, and the retention rate is limited.
Unlike later dramas such as "Struggle", Mubai Entertainment's three urban dramas have opened up the urban drama market. The proportion of TV dramas in the market during the same period, urban dramas are obviously much higher than the market share in previous years.
It’s because people watch urban dramas that have good ratings and want to follow suit and reap the dividends.
This has led to a great increase in the number of urban dramas, but the content and quality of many urban dramas are not good, and the audience still does not pay.
Each of the three urban dramas produced by Mubai Entertainment is of good quality and has core content that is linked to social phenomena. Therefore, even if there are more similar works of the same type outside, everyone will still identify with Mubai Entertainment.
Works produced.
This is a matter of quality, high audience stickiness and retention rate.
"Nirvana in Fire" proved that they have the ability to compete with top TV drama crews. They are not only able to shoot urban dramas, they can also handle costume dramas, including many other genres.
Chen Yunteng's previous production was a youth idol drama, which had a pretty good reputation and passed the passing mark.
In the eyes of the outside world, is a costume sitcom like "Wulin Gaiden" another attempt by Chen Mubai?
Put the popular urban dramas and comedies together and create an alternative contrast?
They don't know the specific content of "Wulin Gaiden" and can only guess based on thin air.
However, at the press conference, Chen Yunteng, as the director of the TV series, had high expectations for this drama and praised the script without hesitation. He was obviously very optimistic about it.
I don’t know if it’s flattery or real feelings, but at least it can be seen that Mubai Entertainment has made sufficient preparations for this drama.
But what everyone doesn't understand is why Chen Mubai didn't direct or star in such a huge drama. Is it because it's too unconventional and has a high chance of being a bad movie, so he stepped away?
You must know that in the previous movie "Let's Get Married", Chen Mubai did not star in or direct it, but his girlfriend Tao Yaoyao also acted as the heroine of that drama. As a result, in this drama, Tao Yaoyao has a role.
No!
Not at all common sense!
Besides, there is no problem in the relationship between the two. A few days ago, a video of the two at an electronic music festival broke out on the Internet. You can see the sour smell of love through the screen.
Therefore, many people are puzzled that Tao Yaoyao and Chen Mubai are not involved.
At the press conference, a reporter asked this question.
Chen Yunteng's answer was very Chen Mubai.
[The selection is based on the compatibility of the role. We screened many people and selected whoever we thought fit the temperament and characteristics of the role. 】
When Chen Mubai said this, there was a feeling of pretentiousness in him, and his extremely confident attitude made people feel proud.
Chen Yunteng faces honesty. When he says this sentence, it is easy to win the trust of others. The same sentence, said by different people, will give others different opinions.
Maybe this is the benefit of being an honest person!
Chen Mubai has always done movies without big names. This is what he has been doing since his debut. Many people began to think that he was pretending, but after the movies and TV series came out, they had to admire the roles he chose.
Over time, everyone still believes in Chen Mubai's casting ability.
Qian Duoduo and Xia Fan are very popular recently, and their first movie earned 2 billion at the box office!
This is an achievement that many well-known movie stars do not have. Although it is a bit tricky, the two of them are indeed the main characters of this movie, and this achievement is not lost.
By teaming up with the two to continue starring in "Wulin Gaiden", it can be seen that Mubai Entertainment is trying its best to cultivate new stars. It wants to create more big stars and can also be used to attract other stars to join.
Many people are covetous of resources with lots of money, which is simply great!
Mubai Entertainment is developing very fast, but there are actually not many well-known celebrities within it. This can be seen from their crazy training of new people. If you join Mubai Entertainment at this time, you will definitely be able to get a lot of resources, which is a lot.
The consensus within people.
There are indeed people who do this, but Mubai Entertainment does not blindly accept people, but chooses based on the situation, mainly those who are capable. Those who simply want to rely on their appearance will be passed directly.
This time, "Wulin Gaiden" has stars from outside. Among them, Xu Qing, who plays Lu Xiucai, just joined the company not long ago.
He was just a slightly famous artist before, an 18th-tier artist. But he had been working hard, but he didn't have the resources to train him.
He came to Mubai Entertainment with the mentality of giving it a try. Although the company is not that big, it has good prospects. The company he worked for before was very big and had many resources, but it was not his turn.
His manager has nearly ten artists on hand. Some are trying to please the manager, while others are doing py transactions, so resources are given to those people first.
Xu Qing is the kind of stupid person. He believes that ability speaks for itself after all, so he has never slacked off in practice and is always preparing for the opportunities that come.
It's just that what I'm waiting for are some resources that others don't like. The TV series I star in are all small supporting roles. I usually practice business acting and there are few announcements.
So after his contract expired, he did not choose to renew, but wanted to try another company.
Then he came to Mubai Entertainment. Chen Mubai was a star he liked very much, so he chose here with some respect for him.
He passed the company's review, and then came into contact with the kind of practice.
Finally, he was selected by Lu Fang to play the role of Lu Xiucai.
The scene he performed during the interview was the scene where Lu Xiucai said that the dead girl had no life, and he passed the test directly!
When Lu Fang chose Xu Qing, it was because he had a trait that made him feel that he was very suitable for the role of Lu Xiucai, and that was his tenacity and bottom line.
Lu Xiucai stood up when everyone was injured and no one thought highly of him, and defeated Ji Wuming, letting everyone see the other side of this poor and trembling scholar, the manly spirit!
People like them have things they stick to in their hearts, and this is the case with Xu Qing.
He doesn't want to join in with others because he firmly believes that ability is the most important thing, but the reality is cold.
Often those who flatter themselves will live better and they will also get more opportunities.
Xu Qing knew it, but did not change his approach. This was his inner bottom line and his own persistence. This was very similar to Lu Xiucai.
It is said that a useless scholar is a scholar. Even if Lu Xiucai is powerless, he can still stand up for his friends at the critical moment of life and death. This is his bottom line!
Xu Qing was very happy when he got the opportunity. This was the opportunity he had long hoped for but never got, to star in a film and television series as the protagonist.
He was very grateful to Lu Fang and Chen Yunteng for giving them this opportunity and thanked them both.
"Let's work together and not embarrass Mr. Chen. The quality of this drama is very high and we can't bury it."
Xu Qing still remembered what Chen Yunteng said to him at that time. Later, he got the script and read it when he went back, wanting to know more about Yilu Xiucai.
He saw the content of the character, and also saw the core and quality of the story. He understood Chen Yunteng's words. Although it seemed to have an absurd comedy atmosphere, it had to be said that the things reflected in it were still very meaningful. No wonder Chen Yun
Teng is so optimistic about this drama.
After the press conference of "Wulin Gaiden", the crew started filming soon.
The scene created is basically the same as the original scene. This is Tongfu Inn, which is also the only scene in the show!
For a costume, history, and martial arts drama, it's almost incredible.
However, this is also the charm of a low-cost sitcom. It almost completes the entire plot in one scene. This tests the skill of the screenwriter. Only when the quality of the plot is good will the audience pay. Otherwise, watching a unique location all the time will lead to aesthetic fatigue.
, only wonderful content will make you ignore these flaws.
During the filming, Chen Mubai and Tao Yaoyao returned to China, and Chen Mubai even came to the set to have a look.
"The photo was taken very well." Chen Mubai said with a smile.
Chen Yunteng said modestly: "The main thing is that your script is well written. If it doesn't work well again, I won't have to work in this industry."
"The script is one thing, the director's ability is also very important, so you don't have to be modest."
Chen Mubai said: "The actor who plays Lu Xiucai is good. Although his acting skills are a bit immature, he has that kind of temperament and also brings out his naive and fragile feeling."
"Oh, he is indeed very good. He is a very hard-working artist." Chen Yunteng said: "When we auditioned, the part we gave as the question was the part about killing Ji Wuming. His performance was very intense.
, there is a tenacity in him, very similar to a scholar."
Speaking of Xu Qing, Chen Yunteng praised Xu Qing unabashedly. He saw Xu Qing's performance in his eyes. He was indeed a very good prospect.
"Xu Qing, come here!" Chen Yunteng shouted to Xu Qing.
"Here we come!" Xu Qing ran over in a hurry.
"What's wrong, Director Chen?"
"It's okay. Mr. Chen praised you for your good acting. I specially called you over to show him and give him some guidance to see if you can gain anything!" Chen Yunteng said with a smile.
"That's good!" Xu Qing said happily.
Chen Mubai is well-known for training actors in their acting skills. If you have his guidance, you will definitely benefit a lot.
It just so happened that Xu Qing himself noticed that there were some shortcomings in the performance of some plots, and it happened that Chen Mubai gave him some guidance, which allowed him to solve his problems and deepen his performance of the characters and emotions.
