Behind the scenes of the entertainment industry

In the other world, there is no Li Yan, only Hu Tong.

So Zhou Cheng didn't know what Li Yan would experience in the future, but Hu Tong in another world was not as relaxed as him.

Hu Tong’s younger siblings were not admitted to any 985 or 211 universities, but were admitted to two local universities in Gansu Province. After Hu Tong’s younger siblings went to college, Hu Tong not only had to bear their tuition fees, but also provided them with living expenses. He waited until they

After graduating from college, they began to ask Hu Tong to help them find jobs and buy a house.

In order to fill these two holes, Hu Tong has been ghostwriting and acting as a gunman. He is as unknown in the circle as most ordinary screenwriters. With a small amount of royalties, he does not even have a chance to be signed, let alone have a chance to be signed.

I have the opportunity to truly complete a work of my own.

In the end, until Zhou Cheng traveled through time, Hu Tong didn't earn much money. He dated three or four girlfriends, and they all left him in the end.

Zhou Cheng looked at Li Yan who was a little more relaxed in this world. He didn't want this brother to make the same mistake as Hu Tong, so he decided to help him: "Are you free in a while? I have something to ask you for help."

"When?" Although he didn't know what happened to Zhou Cheng, Li Yan was not vague: "I can find a way to make time."

"Taken a new order?" Zhou Cheng asked in surprise.

Li Yan did not hide anything: "I have accepted a drama from Senior Brother Qian Yanqiu and will report on it next Monday. It will probably take a month."

"Brother Qian Yanqiu? It can't be "Detective Di Renjie Series"." Hearing this name, Zhou Chengcheng thought of the joke "Yuanfang, what do you think?"

Li Yan shook his head: "No, it's an anti-Japanese drama. His "Hero" is preparing to make a sequel."

"It's probably Yan Shuangying." Zhou Cheng smiled. This should be a famous character in the anti-Japanese drama.

"I didn't expect you to know about this play. Senior Brother Qian has already set up the framework and is going to ask me to help him fill in the content of this play. It will probably take more than half a month." Li Yan smiled sheepishly, and then looked at

Zhou Cheng said seriously: "If you are anxious here, I will push you over there."

"I'm not in a hurry here. Please finish your work with Senior Brother Qian first. Senior Brother Qian won't treat you badly in this drama."

"Ten thousand yuan is a very high price." Li Yan looked at Zhou Cheng and smiled sheepishly.

Chen Li, who had been standing aside without interrupting, said: "The price is not bad. If I give you this price, I'm afraid I won't be able to get you to sign the play."

As Chen Li said, the current rules are that those in the directing department have slightly weaker screenwriting abilities. Some can only write an outline, or even just a story outline, and the contents will be ghostwritten by a gunman. But the signature will be the director himself, after all, he is self-written.

Self-directed projects are more capable of attracting investment and are more topical, making them easier to promote in the future.

Li Yan shook his head: "I don't dare to ask for anything, it's fine just like this. Slowly work through the qualifications, maybe one day I will succeed."

"The mentality is good." Zhou Cheng gave Li Yan a thumbs up. Then he said: "I have a TV series outline in my hand, and I am going to leave the story content to you to write. There will be about forty episodes, and I will do it for you during the filming.

First screenwriter."

"Ah, you still want to film a TV series?" After hearing Zhou Cheng's words, Li Yan had not replied, but Chen Li couldn't help but exclaimed, and even the people who were having a drink over there looked over.

Zhou Cheng nodded and explained to Chen Li: "We have this plan. After we finish filming "The Donkey Gets Water" next year, we will start the project. We will produce a TV series at the end of next year and the beginning of the next year."

Looking at the expressions of several people, Zhou Cheng explained: ""The Donkey Gets Water" is the play sold to Renyi. The film copyright is in my hands, and Renyi will bear 30% of the investment."

Zhou Cheng doesn't want to hide his plan. If he really wants to set up a film and television company in the future, he will need a lot of talents, especially the outlines of the film and television dramas he plans to "create", and professional screenwriters will be needed to complete them.

These people in front of him happened to be his most familiar and trusted friends, and they were also the people Zhou Cheng planned to include in the company.

"Brother, that's awesome!" Chu Ran's eyes lit up when he heard Zhou Cheng's plan: "I have a share in this project. Brother, I can be responsible for part of the investment."

"Brother Cheng, if you want to shoot a TV series, you must write a script first. Count me in. I don't need any money, as long as you can give me your name." Tao Ze was the first to come to the empty seat next to Zhou Cheng with a wine glass.

sit down.

"Even if you add me, I can do it for free." Wu Xiaotian also abandoned Chu Ran and walked over.

"I don't have to..." Li Yan didn't have the confidence of Wu Xiaotian and Tao Ze, so he still hesitated to express his position.

"Brothers, stop it! You guys are making it difficult for me to do this. Brothers, I am preparing to shoot a film and television series, not a graduation work like Brother Li... Brother Li, I am not saying that you didn't give Chu Ran money for the script...

..." Zhou Cheng interrupted what Li Yan wanted to say, and joked about Chen Li to lighten the atmosphere: "Every aspect of my project must have a budget, including the script. As long as everything is formal and the budget is

Only with clarity can we find capital parties to invest.”

"When are you going to start? If it doesn't work, I'll push Brother Qian away?" Although he was a little reluctant to part with this income, facing the statements of Wu Xiaotian and others, Li Yan still did not hesitate and directly told Zhou Cheng that he could do it at any time.

Get out.

"Don't worry, I'll be busy here for a while." Zhou Cheng looked at the hopeful looks of several people and promised them: "Let's do this, we'll start in early August."

Li Yan thought for a while: "Early August? I have no problem. Senior Brother Qian can squeeze in some time if he is busy here."

"It's okay for me. I'll go back to Guangdong Province to see my grandma this month and then I'll come back."

After Tao Ze made his statement, several people looked at Wu Xiaotian. The boy hurriedly said: "I have no problem. Even if I go back to Jinmen, it will be more convenient to come to Yanjing."

"Okay, let's make this decision for the time being." Zhou Cheng ignored Chu Ran's move to express his position and continued: "This is an urban romance drama, and the script budget is 50,000 yuan. I have almost completed the outline. By then, Li Yan

As the first screenwriter, responsible for sorting out the plot, you will get 30,000 yuan. Xiaotian and Tao Ze, you two, can help improve the characters and add details and selling points. How about each of you get 10,000 yuan."

"No problem at all." Li Yan and others looked at each other and expressed their opinions to Zhou Cheng: "Brother Cheng, let's toast you."

"Brother Cheng, cheers. You did it, but you're not happy at all..."

"Go away, this is white." Zhou Cheng was holding a glass of white wine. Wu Xiaotian had secretly filled it up for him just now. This glass was enough for one or two.

"Tch, you are a coward."

None of them had the slightest doubt that Zhou Cheng wanted to film a TV series.

Although Zhou Cheng usually keeps a low profile, they know that the other party has a profound background and a lot of resources like those high-ranking officials in the Beijing circle. Being able to maintain a close relationship with Zhou Cheng will have a big impact on their future development.

benefit.

"Brothers, you can't drink anymore today. I will take Lin Shan to make an announcement tomorrow. If we don't come together, we will miss something important."

Zhou Cheng normally only drinks about four taels, so he drank almost that much today. After he reluctantly drank the wine with them, he started to hang up his no-war sign, then he lay on the table, holding his head with one hand, and used it to Chu Ran.

A look.

"Just let him go. It's not like you don't know how capable this kid is. In the second half, when Master Chu comes, you just let him go." Chu Ran's shouting successfully attracted the firepower of several people. Even Chen Li was

Get involved.

Qian Lele, who had been rarely speaking, looked at Zhou Cheng's state, poured a glass of juice and handed it to him.

"Thank you, Sister Lele." Zhou Cheng thanked Qian Lele. Looking at his clear eyes, he didn't seem to be half drunk.

"Zhou Cheng, I haven't thanked you all this time. Let's see if we have a free day recently. Chen Li and I will treat you to dinner again."

With the support of Deputy Director Wang, Qian Lele has already passed the interview with Yanjing TV. This time he returned to Star City to go through the resignation procedures and will come to Yanjing to record the program in a week.

"Sister Lele, you're welcome, it's just a little effort..."

Before Zhou Cheng could finish speaking, a man sat next to him and then put an arm around his shoulder.

"I just saw you guys, I didn't expect it to be true. Zhou Cheng, why are you so cowardly? You're lying down again..."

"Damn, Mi Lai..." Before Zhou Cheng could see clearly who it was, Wu Xiaotian, who was sitting opposite him, exclaimed in surprise.

"What are you talking about? Call me sister." After hearing Wu Xiaotian's words, the girl grabbed a handful of peanut shells and threw them over.
