Big investment, big production, guaranteed reputation, a boost for newcomers!

Although strictly speaking, he only filmed the TV series White Snake once, Zhang Rilong's reputation is very useful in the industry.

Soon, many places in Beijing, Magic City, Shenzhen, Guangcheng, and Sichuan City, which has always wanted to create an entertainment media culture, began to inquire about the news.

Costume drama!

After knowing that Zhang Rilong was going to film a costume drama and a romance drama, everyone clapped their hands.

"This is reliable!"

Although Zhang Rilong moved, Liu Suifeng still found out Zhang Rilong's latest address from somewhere.

Along with Liu Suifeng, there were also the leaders of the theater.

How did you say that?

They are all their people outside.

"Your place is too small, why don't you move to a bigger house?" Liu Suifeng expressed his disapproval of the three-bedroom and one-living room after entering the house.

Zhang Rilong said casually: "It's convenient to climb stairs. I have the habit of exercising, and the elevator is often broken. You should take the stairs when you go down. Don't break it halfway."

Qin Duoyi said: "It doesn't matter, we have already had someone fix it before we came up."

Zhang Rilong said speechlessly: "Please sit down. If you have anything to say to the leaders of the theater and Mr. Liu, please tell me. I only have cold water here, so I won't bring it out."

Qin Duoyi asked: "Do you know me?"

Zhang Rilong said: "We met at the school party last year. I went out to get some fresh air when I saw you on stage. I didn't hear what you said specifically."

Liu Suifeng knew Zhang Rilong's temper. After sitting down, he said: "Then I'll tell you directly. It's not easy to find you. This time I want to know your general thoughts."

Zhang Rilong sat down and leaned on the armrest of the sofa with one hand, "What about?"

Liu Suifeng said: "For example, a rough script."

Zhang Rilong thought for a moment, "It's roughly the story of a young swordsman meeting a queen fairy, and then going on adventures all the way. The final ending is a little bit difficult, but finally a happy reunion."

The original work does not have a happy ending, and the tragedy may be more impressive. However, Zhang Rilong thought carefully and decided on the ending of the members. He will try his best to have such a happy ending in the future. The current audience cannot accept such a profound tragic ending.

Liu Suifeng asked: "Have you thought of a name?"

"Legend of Sword and Fairy." Zhang Rilong said his original name.

Liu Suifeng felt more at ease, and this name sounded inexplicably reliable.

"Is one billion enough?" Liu Suifeng asked if the money was enough.

In this era, large-scale productions cost more than one billion.

One billion sounds bluffing, but in this era, as long as the number of words exceeds one million, it can be calculated in Japanese yen.

In this magical era of extremely concentrated funds, the bottom class has no money, and the top class has money and cannot spend it. Therefore, there are common monthly salaries of four to five thousand, and there are also celebrity rich who do not take anything seriously.

Liu Suifeng said: "A large-cost TV series costs upwards of 100 million per episode. The combined salary of several major stars alone costs 40 to 50 million per episode. Isn't 100 million too little?"

When I hired Lin Yaru alone, I almost spent all the money. At that time, Lin Yaru was not a first-line star, but a second- or third-tier starlet.

The cost for big stars is higher, and if a drama has more than five first-tier stars, the salary will rise accordingly.

Because there are always dramas between big-name stars.

A star earns four to five million a day, and sometimes he may not be able to finish one episode in a day, and a few more would add up to hundreds of millions.

People can earn two to three million for singing a song for just a few minutes, so how can they not make money?

Zhang Rilong said directly: "Use new people. This can reduce costs. I think new people are easier to fight and more willing to seize opportunities. Moreover, if they are all old faces, the audience will easily confuse them with the roles they played before."

Qin Duoyi said happily: "This is indeed more cost-effective. Nowadays, major companies have many trainees, and major colleges and universities also have many young people in the performance department. Our country does not lack horses, but only Bole who discovers horses.

"

Liu Suifeng thought for two seconds, "Are you still the one to choose the person?"

Zhang Rilong nodded, "Of course, I don't care who invests or makes money with me. I must make money and maintain my reputation. I will personally check the quality of the TV series and decide the actors."

Liu Suifeng said: "We have no objection to this, and the higher-ups don't care about it. The request for me to negotiate with you is about the plot and scenes. The Legend of White Snake did not cover the entire province last time. This time, I want you to take care of the province.

In several other places, some people have raised objections with the province, and the development is uneven."

Zhang Rilong frowned, "I don't understand this, what do you mean?"

Liu Suifeng explained: "The map is bigger, but it should be within Zhejiang Province as much as possible, and it requires people to name several scenic spots and places of interest, so that they can be exposed to rain and dew."

Zhang Rilong understands, the people above still read it according to the tourism promotional video.

There's nothing you can do about it, it's what made you famous in the first place.

Zhang Rilong nodded and said: "Okay, you can choose a general scene. It requires an ancient manor and pavilion, an island, an inn and a ruined peach forest temple. These should be easy to find."

Liu Suifeng added: "As for the actors, try to use people from Zhejiang Province."

Zhang Rilong said nonchalantly: "I can't help it. If I choose actors based on their household registration, then my options will be much less. Besides, I, as a director, am not from Zhejiang Province. Don't be so picky."

"It means try your best, not that it has to be this way." Liu Suifeng explained: "What happened to Lin Yaru last time had a very bad impact."

Zhang Rilong said unhappily: "That matter is not Lin Yaru's problem. The script and the actor who is getting in the way are all your people. Why don't you think about whether he is a local at this time?"

Liu Suifeng said calmly: "I know this, but the negative consequences have indeed occurred. Try to use our people as much as possible, so that it will be easier to publicize."

Zhang Rilong said nonchalantly: "It depends on the situation. I can't guarantee this. You can't say anything about eye rims. The right one is the right one. You don't want that kind of thing to happen again, right?"

Zhang Rilong was afraid because he didn’t want to be bullied by the Internet, so the finale didn’t end with the initial tragedy.

How can modern people accept such a profound ending? Let's forget it.

Liu Suifeng also nodded and said: "You don't have to worry about the investment. We will prepare the funds and production team. When are you going to start?"

Zhang Rilong said: "I have roughly written the script, and I will send you the characters you need. When I have a break on the weekends, I can interview actors. You find someone to negotiate the salary. I am only responsible for selecting the actors, script, music, and the final part."

When it comes to getting money, you can find a professional to take charge of the director, I don't have time to watch all the time."

Liu Suifeng asked: "This is not a fixed script like the Legend of White Snake. Last time, it was old wine in new bottles. If you don't watch it, you won't watch it. How can you not watch it this time?"

Zhang Rilong took out his mobile phone and sent the document, "It's okay. It'll be fine if you follow the script. I don't care about anything. I will watch the previous episodes remotely, just like working online, and I will fly over on weekends to watch.

It’s not far anyway.”

Liu Suifeng had no choice but, "Let's do this for now. In addition to people who go to the theater, we also have a well-known media college in Hangzhou, and there are more people."

Unlike schools like Shangxi and Bei Opera, the Media College in Zhejiang Province has more than 10,000 students and is under the jurisdiction of the provincial capital. It focuses on media and art majors, and coordinates the development of liberal arts, economics, engineering and management.

It can be said that the top four famous schools are the first-level examination papers. Students from media and art schools in universities across the country are all part of the examination papers.

A place like the entertainment industry is not only a stage for a few students from prestigious universities, but also a holy place that hundreds of thousands of art students and related majors aspire to.

Some people, after working hard all their lives, do not even have a position near the edge of the stage. They have always been at the edge of darkness, staring at the wide stage illuminated by flashlights, and at the handsome men and women in bright clothes above.

Zhang Rilong understood what the local forces represented by Liu Suifeng were going to do.

They want to make money, but also want to increase the popularity of several scenic spots. They must not only produce high-quality works to promote publicity, but also improve the reputation of local schools and support the local film and television academy to promote a few celebrities as recruitment propaganda.

.

For many people, not only improving tourism is a factor, but helping to support local colleges is also a very important assessment factor.

After comprehensive consideration, money is not important anymore.

If Zhang Rilong succeeds this time, someone will give him even an investment of 2 billion, not to mention 1 billion next time.

"If he has the right look, good acting skills, and is willing to work hard and endure hardship, I don't care which school or place he comes from."

Zhang Rilong still insists on his rights. Everything is based on the premise that the TV series can be popular. This is the foundation of everything.
