Choose a day to become famous

Xu Bin was so angry that his face turned blue, and he rushed into the director's office.

"Director, there are so many rumors that our station will give the play "Friends" to Jiang Lan. What's going on? There are so many rumors outside, as if I am the one who did bad things to Lu Yanhe, but you know that this matter has nothing to do with me. It was Lao Li who arranged for someone to do it."

Shen Tailin was not surprised at all that Xu Bin would rush in to find him.

He smiled, "Be patient, sit down."

Xu Bin: "How can I sit down?! Director, you won't really let me take the blame, will you?"

Shen Tailin shook his head and said, "We all know what happened. Who would let you take the blame? It's just that we keep our own affairs behind closed doors. We can't let outsiders laugh at us."

Xu Bin was very annoyed, "But now people outside are laughing at me. Others don't know the truth and think I am doing bad things to Lu Yanhe."

"When you were in charge of the project of "Friends", the people under you deliberately did some things to disgust Lu Yanhe. You didn't realize that someone was behind the scenes, so isn't it still a problem of your oversight?" Shen Tailin said, "Now Lu Yanhe is finally willing to repair the relationship with our Beijing-Taiwan. At this time, what do outsiders say? Just let them say a few words. They won't really cut a piece of meat from you."

This made Xu Bin even more angry.

-If the meat is not cut from you, you won't feel heartache, right?

He really wanted to ask this question. Of course, he still held back.

Shen Tailin said: "Of course, the second season of "Friends" will be handed over to you, but I don't need to say more about your attitude towards Lu Yanhe in the future, right?"

Xu Bin said: "The project of "Friends" was obviously something we did at the beginning, but now it seems that we can't play it without him."

Shen Tailin: "Wait until the second season is broadcast before you say this. If the second season without Lu Yanhe can still achieve the results of the first season, we can say this. It was you who gave up the first season, and it was Lu Yanhe who promoted it in a grand manner. Why do you think Lu Yanhe has such a status in the play "Friends" now? Half of it is because of your own giving up."

Shen Tailin's words made Xu Bin feel like he was fed a mouthful of shit.

Damn, what a word!

Xu Bin thought, wasn't it the decision of everyone in the station to give up this play?

But Shen Tailin is the director, what can Xu Bin say?

Speechless.

"Did you arrange for Chen Ziliang to be in the second season?" Shen Tailin suddenly asked.

Xu Bin nodded, "His boss and agent had several meals with me, and they were particularly proactive in wanting Chen Ziliang to be in the second season. I was also looking for an actor, and I had been looking for a long time. Although Chen Ziliang has received some bad reviews recently, he is a popular and hot star after all. He is willing to play in this kind of group drama, which will also help the second season."

Shen Tailin glanced at him, "If you use him, then use him. Forget it."

Xu Bin was stunned.

When he came out of Shen Tailin's office, he thought about it for a long time. What does "if you use him, then use him" mean?

It sounds like Shen Tailin is not very satisfied with Chen Ziliang.

But, generally speaking, how can the director of a TV station have an opinion on the starring candidate of a drama? Even if it is a hot drama.

The whole thing made Xu Bin feel strange.

After all, Beijing-Taiwan is Beijing-Taiwan, and the nature of the video platform is still different.

The boss of a video platform would chat and laugh with a popular star like Lu Yanhe, but the director of a traditional TV station might not be in such a mood.

As a result, Shen Tailin's attitude towards Lu Yanhe has obviously changed now, and even in Xu Bin's opinion, he is paying too much attention to him.

-

Some people are happy that Lu Yanhe's relationship with Beijing and Taiwan has eased, and naturally some people are unhappy.

For example, Chen Ziliang is really unhappy and even very worried.

He is very worried that if Lu Yanhe is willing to return to the second season of "Friends", then he will have nothing to do with this project.

After worrying for a long time, his agent Yan Wei said that Lu Yanhe clearly did not return, which made Chen Ziliang relieved but also a little stimulated.

Even for a project like the second season of "Friends", Lu Yanhe can say that he will not do it. This kind of courage and confidence, regardless of whether it is crazy or not, in the final analysis, Chen Ziliang does not have such confidence.

Everyone can see that one is on the rise and the other is on the decline.

Chen Ziliang has been scolded by Ma Zhiyuan's fans these days, blaming him for dragging Ma Zhiyuan down, which made him so angry that he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.

An endorsement that is about to expire, and there is obviously no intention to renew it with him. Yan Wei is working hard on public relations and maintaining relationships to keep this endorsement, otherwise, once the endorsement is lost, the decline in commercial value will be exposed to everyone again.

For the public, whether an artist is popular or not depends to some extent on whether there are works being broadcast, whether they are often on hot searches, and whether there are people discussing them.

For the industry, the things to look at are more complicated. Moreover, many people look at the trend more. Is this person trending upward or downward? If it is upward, you can invest, and if it is downward, you have to stop the loss in time.

This is why Yan Wei must squeeze Chen Ziliang into projects such as the second season of "Friends".

He is willing to give a discount on the salary, and he is also willing to write the OST for "Friends" for free, and even promised to help Beijing and Taiwan shoot other dramas and record some programs.

The packaged cooperation framework is one that Chen Ziliang has never signed with other places.

Just because the second season of "Six" is obviously going to be a hit. Chen Ziliang will once again receive huge attention after joining.

-

Of course, these have nothing to do with Lu Yanhe.

What really concerns him is that summer vacation is coming again.

It’s the summer special issue of Jump Up.

Director Chen Lingling's new drama, which will be launched in August, has finally been named.

"River of Silence".

Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao received news from Chen Lingling and went to her studio to read the revised script.

Chen Lingling, wearing pajamas and pajamas with messy hair, opened the door for them. This image shocked both Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao.

Although Chen Lingling has always been a very laid-back person, not like ordinary successful directors, her appearance in such a casual image still surprised Lu Yanhe.

"Come in." Chen Lingling waved for them to come in. She was wearing clattering plastic slippers and pointed to two thick scripts on a table and said, "These are the scripts for the first five episodes. I Some places have been changed, please read it first.”

After saying that, Chen Lingling went to another room by herself.

Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao looked at each other.

Zeng Qiao smiled, showing a helpless smile, "Then let's read the script."

Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao sat down.

After about ten minutes, Huang Cheng arrived.

"Brother Huang."

"You are already here." Huang Cheng was a little surprised when he saw them, "I thought you would be here for a while."

Lu Yanhe said: "The time Director Chen told us was eight o'clock in the morning."

Huang Cheng: "It seems that she didn't sleep all night again yesterday. She was still sending me messages at four o'clock in the morning yesterday, and she will continue to go to the set in the afternoon."

Chen Lingling is now directing another drama.

She has always been low-yield, but this year she rarely filmed two dramas back-to-back, making her more productive.

Huang Cheng said: "Fortunately, "Silent River" has money, and foreign streaming media are really generous in filming. We don't have to be too careful about production funds. Every department can use the best people."

Indeed.

Chen Ziyan once said that Lu Yanhe's average per-episode salary for "River of Silence" was the highest he had ever received since acting.

Money makes things easier. This is true. If the people in each department are the best staff, the director will have to spend a lot less energy.

Lu Yanhe asked: "If "River of Silence" is released on overseas streaming media, who will broadcast it on the domestic platform?"

"This hasn't been settled yet. The biggest ones are all competing for it." Huang Cheng smiled, "Besides, there's no rush. It's not our turn to have the final say. The whole show belongs to Maxine." , they have the final say on who they collaborate with, we are only responsible for producing this show.”

Lu Yanhe nodded.

-

"River of Silence" is a suspense crime drama.

There was a version of the script before, and director Chen Lingling wanted to change it to an ancient setting, but after some hesitation, the director gave up.

However, in order to avoid some sensitive issues, the background of this drama is placed in a fictional country in Southeast Asia that is mainly Chinese.

Moreover, it seems that some of the outdoor scenes were shot in Southeast Asia.

In this story, Lu Yanhe plays the suspect and Zeng Qiao plays the policeman. The two used to be classmates in the same school, and the murder case is also related to the school they once attended.

In particular, the character played by Lu Yanhe had a very rough experience, especially the reason for his murder, which made Lu Yanhe very sad when reading the script.

It's a good story.

While he was reading the script, he sighed frequently, which made him feel sad many times.

Being born as a human being is like an ant, it is not easy.

How to fight against this twists and turns of fate?

-

This version of Chen Lingling's script has been changed to be more emotional...

The policeman played by Zeng Qiao and the suspect played by Lu Yanhe have more confrontations and conflicts.

Although Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao were the male protagonists before, they were basically two lines and did not have many antagonistic scenes. This version of the script has been changed and the two have a confrontation in almost every episode.

Very good change.

Chen Lingling seemed to have gone to catch up on her sleep for an hour and a half. When she appeared again, her eyes looked as sleepy as when she just woke up.

But her thinking was clear.

She did not ask Zeng Qiao and Lu Yanhe for their opinions, but said directly: "I have increased the number of confrontations between the two of you. The previous script was still too focused on the inner drama, and the requirements for post-production editing were also very high. It was easy to make the editing dull and unsightly. , I still hope that this drama will be better and not give the audience too high a viewing threshold.”

Lu Yanhe nodded.

Zeng Qiao said: "After I finished reading the script, I also felt that this version of the script was more beautiful. One link after another, there was basically no time to relax."

Chen Lingling: "Because there are so few episodes, it is very difficult to tell the ins and outs of a story in such a short episode, and to establish several characters. Unlike the previous filming, we had enough materials and some places could be handled by post-production. This time we must figure out what we want to shoot in each scene and what effect we want to shoot before filming. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough energy now, and I am still filming another drama. You two are very mature actors and understand drama. You must figure it out by yourselves. In the past, actors didn’t understand drama, and I could tell them how to act correctly. You two don’t need me to do this, right? Moreover, I really have to say it in advance. I don’t have that much energy to help you figure out every scene."

Lu Yanhe didn’t expect Chen Lingling to say this.

"Director, we will prepare well, don’t worry." Zeng Qiao said.

Chen Lingling yawned.

"I’m too sleepy. I’ll take a nap. You can take the script with you. I’ll let you watch the next three episodes after I have revised them."

After that, Chen Lingling got up and left again.

Huang Cheng said to them, "Let's go. I'll take you there."

Huang Cheng took them out.

He said, "She's been under a lot of pressure lately. She's filming the scenes she's working on and preparing for the next scenes. She asked you to come here today mainly to see how you are doing. She didn't say anything, so she should be satisfied with your state."

Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao smiled at each other.

This was not the first time they had worked with Chen Lingling, and they knew that this director had her own set of methodologies for guiding actors.

Lu Yanhe was the type of person who would fully trust a director once he chose one, while Zeng Qiao had worked hard to hone his acting skills, and had the confidence that he could win no matter what crew or director he met.

Some actors might feel uncomfortable with Chen Lingling's tentative attitude - because they felt like they were being manipulated, but neither of them minded this.

-

Finally, the play was about to begin.

In July, the summer was getting hotter.

While Lu Yanhe was preparing for "The River of Silence", he was also preparing for the movie "Lost on Journey" with Jia Long. Although he was supposed to accompany him in the preparation, in fact, Lu Yanhe was only responsible for providing his own suggestions and ideas. The ones who really promoted this project were Jia Long and the director he found, Jiang Lu, a new director who had never directed a movie independently.

Although "Lost on Journey" in Lu Yanhe's memory was a classic, it was actually not a well-made movie, and the low cost was visibly low.

In fact, in many people's minds, comedy movies have almost become synonymous with "small wins big".

However, because Jia Long starred in this movie, it was obviously impossible to take the path of "small wins big". His salary alone determined that the cost of this movie could not be "small".

Lu Yanhe just shared his style about this movie with them.

When the actors were finally decided, everyone held an open audition to find the role of Niu Geng.

Wang Dashan also participated. There were also other well-known actors, but in the end, Wang Dashan was the most suitable.

Even Jia Long himself said: "It's rare to see such stubborn and honest characteristics in a young actor."

Wang Dashan's acting was very free of burden, which was what Jia Long valued most.

Actors who graduated from colleges and universities are more burdened than others. They have liberated their nature, but have also lost the sense of boundaries of ordinary people to a large extent. They use a stage play-like exaggeration to replace the normal restraint in reality.

Wang Dashan auditioned the scene where he was looking for a seat on the train and found that his seat bumped into Li Chenggong.

When he acted in this scene, it was not Jia Long who was acting with him personally, but a staff member who was reading the script to him.

But despite this, Wang Dashan had no problem at all, and his state was natural as usual.

This is the most difficult part, to make a character who is rarely seen in normal times perform the usual relaxation in a scene with high intensity of jokes.

When Lu Yanhe saw this scene, he thought in his heart that no matter whether Jia Long and others were satisfied or not, he was satisfied anyway.

Of course, the result also proved that everyone has a scale in their hearts for good performances and can see it.

Jia Long and Jiang Lu also thought it was good.

So Wang Dashan decided on it.

After Wang Dashan was cast, the other roles didn't have many parts and didn't have much impact on the film. They could either find an actor to make a cameo appearance or they could choose their own. Lu Yanhe didn't have many ideas.

The movie "Lost on Journey" takes place during the Spring Festival travel rush.

Jia Long wanted to simply put the movie on the end of the year.

Lu Yanhe had no objection to this. He was not starring in the movie, and there was no need to coordinate his schedule. There was only one thing. Jia Long still wanted him to make a cameo appearance as the handsome college student in the movie, but Lu Yanhe wanted to find someone else to make a cameo appearance. He felt that since he was already a screenwriter, his fans would support him if they wanted to. It would be better to find another actor to make a cameo appearance, and the effect might be better.

-

If "Lost on Journey" was something Jia Long was pushing forward with all his strength, "Wulin Wai Zhuan" was Lu Yanhe's own business.

Compared to the issue of actors, Lu Yanhe thought more about which director could manage this project.

Shang Jing, the director of the original work, had sitcoms such as "Cooking Class Story" before filming "Wulin Gaiden".

In the current entertainment industry, the only director Lu Yanhe has ever worked with on a sitcom is Bai Jingnian, the director of "Six People".

But it is a pity that Bai Jingnian is a director from Beijing and Taiwan, and he is also a director with personnel relations in Beijing and Taiwan. He basically does not accept projects from outside. If you want to find him, you must get the consent of Beijing and Taiwan.

Beijing and Taiwan must now hope that Bai Jingnian can concentrate on completing the second season of "Six People", and there is no need to even negotiate and try.

After Chen Ziyan knew that Lu Yanhe was worried about this matter, she rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why are you worrying so much? Since this project is in cooperation with Northern Lights Video, then you just leave it to them and let them worry about it. With such a big platform, I can’t find a good team for you?”

Lu Yanhe: "I...seem to subconsciously regard this project as my own."

"Then you'd better change your mind as soon as possible. To be honest, right now when it comes to your choices of leading actors in "Wulin Gaiden", I feel like you are too optimistic? People are not willing to cooperate with you. I plan to put so much power in your hands," Chen Ziyan said, "What director to use and what actors to choose? It doesn't matter if you only have one or two candidates. You are now completely treating yourself as the producer of "Wulin Gaiden." People are working on this project, but they are still doing it with money given by others.”

Lu Yanhe was hit in the head by Chen Ziyan's words.

In fact, Chen Ziyan had mentioned this to him before, but she didn't say it so straightforwardly at the time.

Lu Yanhe fell into silence.

Lu Yanhe knew that Chen Ziyan was right. Regarding the project of "Wulin Gaiden", it is probably because so far, this project has been done by himself and has not entered the formal preparation stage. Therefore, unlike "Journey on the Road", there is a The physical Jaron was there, reminding him that this was not his decision.

"If you have chosen a few actors and have ideas about the actors, you can communicate with Northern Lights Video earlier, but don't make your own decision until later to officially promote the project, because these things will conflict, and there will be conflicts by then, even if Your original intention is to make this project better, but it will also make people feel unhappy. After all, they are the ones who pay," Chen Ziyan said, "The boss is the one who pays.

Lu Yanhe said: "Sister Ziyan, what do you suggest me to do?"

"First, make a list of your target actors. Second, go to a meeting with Northern Lights. Ask someone, especially a trader, who can represent Northern Lights Video to promote the project. Between you and Northern Lights internal "Be a sounding board." Chen Ziyan said, "Then, if you have such a person, you can hand over the list openly and tell them that these are the actors you initially think are suitable, and ask them to consider it carefully to give others face. , with the sincerity with which they treat you now, they will definitely consider your opinions. ”

Lu Yanhe asked: "What if I conflict with their opinions?"

"If there is a conflict, then resolve it. It is normal for both parties to disagree when advancing a project." Chen Ziyan said, "When it really cannot be resolved, then, in fact, it is a thousand words and ten thousand, Yan He, this The most important thing for you is your attitude. Don't give them the impression that you are domineering and uncompromising in this project. Many times you give the other party some respect, and they will return the favor to you. After all, you already have a huge inherent advantage. No matter what they say, this project was started because of you, and they paid a lot of money to ask you to do it. If they don't care about your opinion, it means it is in vain. Spend money, this is the greatest endorsement Mr. Lin can give you.”

Lu Yanhe felt a sudden realization.

Well, Sister Ziyan is still Sister Ziyan.

-

So Lu Yanhe made an appointment with Zheng Huairen, the executive in charge of content production at Northern Lights Video.

This time, Chen Ziyan was not present.

Lu Yanhe said: "Mr. Zheng, I have seriously considered what we talked about a long time ago. This time I invite you to come out to meet to discuss the drama "Wulin Gaiden". We will soon choose a production company. Before that, I want to discuss other things with you and reach relevant consensus."

Zheng Huairen nodded and said, "No problem, please tell me."

"I still want to say something. I am only twenty years old. I am an inexperienced novice in many aspects. If you feel that there is something I have not considered adequately, you can tell me at any time." Lu Yanhe emphasized first. After saying one sentence, he continued, "I hope Northern Lights Video can arrange for a supervisor or executive producer to work with me on the "Wulin Gaiden" project, because I will have a lot of ideas about this project, such as casting, For example, the shooting style, such as the content of the script, these ideas may not be mature and are my first reaction based on the content itself, so I need someone to connect with various departments to help me implement these ideas, or directly prove that they cannot be implemented. "

Zheng Huairen was stunned.

He was surprised.

He did not expect that Lu Yanhe would take the initiative to ask Northern Lights to arrange a supervisor for this project.

To put it bluntly, the position of supervisor is actually a supervisor, or in other words, a supervisor. It is the person who does the "supervision" in the production process.

Lu Yanhe and Chen Ziyan took the initiative to find a professional production company to produce this drama. No problem. This is indeed a specialization in the industry.

But Zheng Huairen didn't expect that they would take the initiative to find someone to be the producer, which was equivalent to installing a monitor around them.

Lu Yanhe said: "You give the project of "Wulin Gaiden" a budget of 200 million in one breath, not to mention that we plan to do it in seasons, even if we don't do it in seasons, this budget is far higher than our expectations. Maybe there are some differences in understanding between the two of us on the "Wulin Gaiden" project. I personally have no plans to create an all-star cast for the protagonists of this drama. "

Zheng Huairen frowned in confusion: "Why not?"

"Because it's not suitable." Lu Yanhe said bluntly, "Of course, the actors' remuneration must also be indispensable, because I hope to invite celebrity guest stars in every unit, and the remuneration of these guest stars is not low, but I don't understand the calculation. You need to arrange someone to do it.”

Zheng Huairen: "Let's not talk about the guest roles, why is it not suitable? To be honest, we are planning to create an S+ drama with an all-star cast. If your script is not S+, it would be a waste."

"Mr. Zheng, whether the production cost is S+ is not the key to whether a drama can produce S+ effects." Lu Yanhe said, ""Wulin Gaiden" is a commercial drama. If you find a large group of well-known actors, If a high-quality star actor plays the leading role, the threshold for the audience to enter this world will become higher. For example, for the role of Bai Zhantang, sister Ziyan has been persuading me, which shows that Huang Kairen is very suitable. I have cooperated with him and he took the initiative to tell me that he is willing to act, but I am still a little resistant to it. Why? Because he is so well-known and everyone knows him, and his star aura is very shining. I think it will affect this film. "

Zheng Huairen took a deep breath and said, "Yan He, we have announced to the public that "Wulin Gaiden" is an S+ level drama."

Lu Yanhe looked puzzled.

"If I tell everyone at this time that the production cost of "Wulin Gaiden" will be reduced, especially if the starring cast does not have an actor of Huang Kairen's level, there will be a lot of doubts in the market, such as whether our platform has been internally evaluated, and whether Then look at this drama, for example, is the script too poor to attract good actors? "Zheng Huairen said, "You said that the level of production cost is not the level of the final broadcast effect of a drama, of course it is, but if If a drama is promising from the production stage, it will never become a low-cost drama. Just like your script, we can't spend tens of millions to buy the script you wrote and only spend a few dollars. We are asking a group of unknown actors to star in the movie. We are a listed company. If the project is done like this, no one will be optimistic about it. With "Wulin Gaiden" already attracting much attention, the stock price will be affected. "

Lu Yanhe was dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that he wouldn't have to spend so much money on the "Wulin Gaiden" project, and Zheng Huairen was not happy about it.

The main reason is that Lu Yanhe did not expect that the production cost of the "Wulin Gaiden" project would affect the stock price of Northern Lights Video. He thought it was exaggerated and unbelievable, but when Zheng Huairen said it, it seemed to make sense.

Zheng Huairen said: "The protagonist may not be an all-star cast, but it must not be a starless cast. Yan He, I must ask you to change your mind. There are no actors rated as S+ in the market. Our drama and even our Many future plans will be affected.”

Lu Yanhe took a breath of cold air.

What? ! -

Although there were conflicts in terms of production costs and actor selection, Zheng Huairen immediately arranged for a producer to come over for "Wulin Gaiden".

Jiang Zixin, an experienced woman, is thirty-six years old.

Zheng Huairen later called Lu Yanhe several times.

"Yan He, we must use the highest standards to produce this drama. You don't have to have any worries." He said, "I don't know if you heard some rumors and felt that our production of this drama has affected many other people." project, but that has nothing to do with you. "Wulin Gaiden" is a drama that we all have high hopes for. We don't want to save a little money and fail to achieve our ideal results in the end. "

Lu Yanhe couldn't laugh or cry.

Zheng Huairen also fell in love by mistake.

Lu Yanhe felt that he didn't know what to say.

Many projects required money but he couldn't get it, but he didn't want that much money for his project. People threw baskets of money into his hands and said, "You must spend it for me!"

The most expensive thing about "Wulin Gaiden" now is his screenwriting fee, which is 500,000 yuan per episode. According to the original idea, if twelve or sixteen episodes were produced in the first season, his screenwriting fee would be 6 million to 8 million.

In addition, he himself also has a share of the show's profits. Of course, this is not included in the production cost.

Lu Yanhe decided not to think about the production costs anymore, and there was no need for him to think about it.

The key is how to film this movie well, and leave the settling of accounts to Jiang Zixin and the others.

-

Lu Yanhe talked with Chen Ziyan, Jiang Zixin and Zheng Huairen many times, and had a serious chat with Huang Kairen. Finally, he compromised and let Huang Kairen play Bai Zhantang.

Zheng Huairen insisted that this drama must have two S+ level actors. After searching for it, Huang Kairen could only be used.

In addition to Huang Kairen, Northern Lights Video also hopes that shopkeeper Tong can find a first-line actress.

What Lu Yanhe didn't expect was that Northern Lights actually recommended an acquaintance of Lu Yanhe.

Zhen Hongyu.

When Lu Yanhe was filming "Phoenix Stage", Zhen Hongyu played his CP at first, but later because something happened to her, she was replaced by Xiao Yun.

Zhen Hongyu plays shopkeeper Tong?

Lu Yanhe's face twisted in an instant.

Mainly because the image of Teacher Yan Ni is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that Lu Yanhe simply cannot put on the face of a young girl in her twenties.

Lu Yanhe asked seriously: "Shopkeeper Tong is a widowed woman. Although she is not old, she is definitely not in her early twenties. Do you think it is appropriate to cast Zhen Hongyu?"

This choice made Lu Yanhe even speechless and incredible.

Lu Yanhe's reaction was so intense that it exceeded Northern Lights' expectations. Considering Lu Yanhe's attitude, everyone put this role on hold for now.

-

As the drama "Wulin Gaiden" progresses, many of the things Chen Ziyan said to Lu Yanhe have been fulfilled one by one.

Lu Yanhe also deeply realized that if he was really dizzy and selected all the actors by himself, then the conflict between him and Northern Lights Video would become even greater.

You have to break it off.

Lu Yanhe understood even more why Chen Ziyan asked Northern Lights to arrange for a producer to come over in the first place.

No matter what happens, there is such a person to coordinate and coordinate, which can prevent many conflicts from exploding directly on the table.

At this time, the trailer for "Seventeenth Floor" was aired.

Unlike "Six", "Seventeenth Floor" has received the greatest support from all departments in Beijing and Taiwan from top to bottom. Various hot searches have become popular, and various media channels have opened up the joints.

The heat is gratifying.

Lu Yanhe's image in the play is that of a somewhat silly genius, and his scenes in the trailer are second only to Chen Bige, making him a well-deserved leading actor.

Chen Ziyan has already arranged various press releases to be released in conjunction with the drama announcement.

After "Six People" and "Three Mountains", this is Lu Yanhe's third drama broadcast this year.

It is also Lu Yanhe's second starring role.

Of course it's important.

Of course, at this time, some people refused to stop.

For example, Li Yuefeng.

He had no intention of cheating Lu Yanhe, he just wanted to get more exposure for himself. However, his methods were still the same as those before, and his thoughts were all written on his face.

For example, a press release appeared on the Internet, saying that this drama will have one female protagonist and two male protagonists. Li Yuefeng's role is similar to that of Lu Yanhe, and there is no distinction between male lead and supporting actor.

Another example is the rumor that Beijing and Taiwan highly praised Li Yuefeng's performance and decided to submit him for the best actor category in this year's major awards.

Wait, you will know whose handiwork it is and what its purpose is.

To put it bluntly, I actually want to turn myself, a third-rate supporting actor, into a regular actor like Lu Yanhe.

Chen Ziyan said: "This is Li Yuefeng's usual operation, but he didn't dare to do it too obviously this time."

Mainly because Lu Yanhe's momentum in the past six months has been so fierce that almost no one can compete with him.

No matter how arrogant Li Yuefeng is, he cannot possibly think that he can keep pace with Lu Yanhe now.

There was a gap when I first starred in this drama, let alone now.

When actors want to be in the spotlight, they fight openly and secretly, regardless of gender.

Lu Yanhe dealt with Li Yuefeng, and he was more or less familiar with this person and his character.

Unlike Huang Kairen and Zeng Qiao, Li Yuefeng is a person who shows his snobbery clearly on his face.

But he is indeed not a bad person, unlike the villains in some stories who will use some bad methods to do harm to others and benefit themselves.

At most, I just like to mess around.

"Furthermore, because we refused to sign a cooperation agreement with Beijing and Taiwan before, many of Beijing and Taiwan's own publicity resources were given to others." Chen Ziyan said, "This is on the table. We have made it clear before. Shen Yue and Yan Zhimeng have both signed a cooperation agreement. They have already recorded two programs in Beijing and Taiwan this month. I see that some of your fans have asked on your official Weibo account why you, as the protagonist, rarely appear on Beijing and Taiwan. Promote this drama on the show. I will spread the word and say that you are preparing for the new drama directed by Chen Lingling. Don’t let it slip.”

"Yeah, okay." Lu Yanhe nodded.

-

What kind of ratings results "Seventeen Floors" can achieve is a question that the industry is very concerned about.

Just like the original "Sixteenth Floor", "Seventeenth Floor" is also a "battle royale" theme that is rare in domestic film and television dramas.

How many viewers will buy it is unknown.

However, this time with top actress Chen Bige as the lead and Lu Yanhe as the male lead, this drama faces an unknown future while being generally optimistic.

"Seventeen Floor" has only twelve episodes, each episode is one hour long.

When Beijing and Taiwan were arranging the broadcast, they struggled for a long time whether to broadcast it weekly or daily.

"Six People" relied on weekly broadcasts to maintain its popularity for two full months, maximizing economic benefits.

In the end, Beijing and Taiwan decided to adopt weekly broadcast.

However, because the investment in "The Seventeenth Floor" was really huge, they did not dare to put everything on their own hands, so they sold the online broadcast to Northern Lights Video. 24 hours after the TV station's first broadcast, it will be online on the video platform, giving the TV station a 24-hour window period.

This drama was also sold at a high price.

Northern Lights Video won the two-year exclusive online broadcast rights for this drama at a price of 10.5 million per episode.

The head of the purchasing department of Northern Lights Video said in an interview: "Such a price is not expensive for a drama with only twelve episodes. Although the average price per episode is higher than other dramas, it is a good deal in a project with such a cast."

Before it was officially broadcast, there were as many as eight online patch ads.

It is enough to see the market's optimism about this drama. (End of this chapter)
