Entertaining Children

"Do you agree to set these rules for the company's future works?" Xiao Yao asked.

"No!" Everyone shook their heads.

The major shareholders present here are Xiao Yao's playmates from childhood to adulthood, and the executives were recruited by Xiao Yao's studio with help, so they are naturally more in tune with each other ideologically.

Although these regulations of Xiao Yao are much stricter than most of the current film and television production units in the industry, as a quality-pursuing film and television work, these are actually relatively basic requirements and should be fulfilled . Although being a film and television company also has the pursuit of profit, making conscientious works and economic benefits are not completely opposite sides.

"Mr. Xiao, do we need to publish these regulations on the company's official account?" the person in charge of the company's publicity department asked.

"No," Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "It seems too deliberate to make a special statement, like hype. Let's talk about the work, not this hype! And if it is made public in a high-profile way, people may use a magnifying glass to stare at it in the future." Let's see, in case of any special circumstances in the future, some people with ulterior motives may still use it to set the rhythm. So this is the company's internal regulations, and there is no need to specially publicize them. As long as we insist on doing this, these regulations will be passed sooner or later. The rejected actors and companies are passed on to the industry and then to the public, this way let everyone know better."

"Understood!" The person in charge of the propaganda department nodded.

"Mr. Xiao, you said that this project is our first project next year, so when is the expected launch time? Is the preparation going to start before the Chinese New Year? Do you need to communicate with Ms. Yin Xi's studio? "The person in charge of the production department asked, "Also, you and Miss Yin Xi act as the male and female protagonists respectively, so you still act as the director and producer yourself?"

"Our movie "Donkey Gets Water" has not yet been finalized. I plan to arrange it to be released after the Lantern Festival. At least one week after the movie is released, I can join the team with peace of mind, so the start time of this TV drama project must be the earliest It will be March next year, but the preparations really have to start before the New Year." Xiao Yao replied, "Of course, the preparations must be communicated and cooperated with Yin Xi's studio. I originally invited Yin Xi to join us This year’s end-of-year review meeting, but she said it was our company’s annual meeting, so she insisted on not coming. After we have written the first draft of the script, we will contact them to make preparations.”

"As for the director and producer, I won't act this time." Xiao Yao continued, "I'm only an actor and screenwriter for this TV drama project."

"That means we still need to find a reliable producer and director?" The person in charge of the production department asked, "Should you choose it yourself or our department will find it."

"You guys go find it," Xiao Yao said, "After I get out the first draft of the script, you can find a suitable producer and director according to the script, and finally let Yin Xi and I meet."

"Speaking of producers and directors, it's fine if our company doesn't sign artists. Shouldn't we sign some exclusive directors and screenwriters?" Lin Qisan said, "Many film and television companies have their own directors and screenwriters."

"Yes!" Xiao Yao nodded, and turned to everyone, "I have only finished the outline of this script, and I want to find other screenwriters to help me complete the complete script. In addition to the two projects just mentioned, we will have more projects next year. Continue to work on the second season of "Shared Youth". In the second season, we will try our best to use the original crew, but Lin Qisan and I will not continue to serve as producers, and we need to find another producer. I will not have my own director next year For the project, Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan have no idea of ​​transitioning to try to be a director for the time being, so we all need people for producers, directors, and screenwriters."

"Our company doesn't sign artists," Xiao Yao continued, "but professional producers, directors, screenwriters, etc., our company can sign some."

"Are you those students from Yandian who applied for drama?" someone asked.

"Including, but not limited to them.

"Xiao Yao said, "The most important thing is ability, followed by experience, and thirdly style. The director and screenwriter of the TV series we applied for, the ones with the best grades who are sure to be able to direct the second season can sign, and the others will be observed and observed. The director and screenwriter of the Yandian movie will wait until the movie is released. See you later. We are called young people, and we don’t only sign young people. When we meet a good director who is capable and experienced but has no contracts, we can also try to win. As for screenwriters, I prefer the screenwriting method of division of labor and cooperation. Sign more It doesn't matter to some young people. "

"Understood!" Everyone nodded, apparently agreeing to include this item in the new year's work plan.

"There is one last thing, which is also related to the project." Xiao Yao said, "Although our company is called Young People Film and Television Company, I don't want to just make movies and TV series. I also want to try a documentary project next year."

"Documentary?" Everyone was surprised again.

"Although there are few film and television companies making documentaries, they are not without." Zhao Rui took the lead, "What kind of subject do you want to shoot?"

"You definitely don't want to make a corporate documentary," Lin Qisan guessed. "Is it about environmental protection? As a goodwill ambassador of the United Nations Environment Program, you really regard environmental protection as your mission? Do you want to make a film about Yan? The smog in Beijing?"

"This is a good idea!" Xiao Yao touched his chin and said, "However, things like smog are not easy to shoot under normal circumstances, and if you shoot them, you may be banned. Besides, if you really want to shoot this subject, I will It is meaningful for this goodwill ambassador to participate in the filming in person. But for next year’s documentary project, I just proposed a more interesting idea and wanted to hand it over to others for filming. I didn’t plan to do it myself. After all, I have to film and wait a lot Things to do!"

"What's the more interesting idea?" Everyone asked with great interest.

When it comes to documentaries, everyone's first impression is that it is related to seriousness. When Xiao Yao said it was fun, everyone had to be curious about it.

"Food!" Xiao Yao laughed.

"Food documentary?" Everyone was a little surprised at first, and then the eyes of several people present lit up.

"To be precise, it should be food and culture!" Xiao Yao said, "I'm just an idea now, so I haven't made any copywriting, so let's just talk about it. The main content of this documentary is to talk about the food ecology of various parts of China. Through the various aspects of Chinese cuisine, we will show the rituals, ethics and other aspects of culture that food brings to Chinese people's lives, see Chinese characteristic ingredients and a series of elements related to food that constitute the unique temperament of Chinese cuisine, and understand the delicacy of Chinese food culture and have a long history."

The documentary that Xiao Yao wanted to make was "A Bite of China" from his previous life, so he simply used the introduction of that documentary as his introduction.

"According to my idea," Xiao Yao continued, "this documentary is not in the form of a movie, and will not be released in theaters, but in the form of a TV series, divided into seasons and episodes. There are so many Chinese delicacies, and the material is absolutely sufficient. Do it in the first season. If it goes well, we can continue to do the second and third seasons."

"You want to make a series again, one a year?" Lin Qisan laughed, "It seems that you are really deeply influenced by American dramas!"

Xiao Yao smiled and continued: "But this is not easy to shoot. I think it takes a lot of work just for the preliminary research, and I will definitely go to many places during the shooting. I guess the first season The production cycle will take about a year to ensure the quality. I may be able to spare one year in the future, but I will definitely not be able to spare it next year, so I do not plan to do this project myself, but plan to find seven Eight directors and more than a dozen photographers came together to complete the first season of this documentary."

"Seven or eight directors and a dozen photographers?" Zhao Rui said, "Is it so exciting?"

"However, the film and television company run by some of our young actors spends so much effort and money to make a food and cultural documentary, it sounds absolutely interesting!" Zhu Zitong said, "Even if the filming does not make money in the end, I am very much in favor of it! "

"We also agree!" Others also expressed their opinions one after another.

"Since you guys directly expressed your approval, then I won't write any copy." Xiao Yao said, "The production department will help me find a few documentary directors and photographers who are good at and experienced in this field. Interview with them, and the specific executive producer is estimated to have to prepare three."

"Okay!" The person in charge of the production department nodded in agreement, and wrote down Xiao Yao's request.

"That's all I want to say." Xiao Yao looked at Zhao Rui and the others and said, "It's your turn next, do you have anything to say?"

"No!" Zhao Rui shook his head, "What can we say?"

"Next year's plan," Xiao Yao said, "I've said so much, don't you have any project proposals to talk about?"

"My plan for next year is to act! If there is a good book, I will take it and act, if not, I will wait." Zhao Rui said, "I am not like you. I can write a script outline in a few days and come up with the idea of ​​a documentary. I've been busy with movie releases these days, and I haven't come across any scripts or stories that I like, and I don't have the idea of ​​letting the company start a project."

"Me too!" Zhu Zitong also said.

"I saw a good one recently, and I have some thoughts about making it into a TV series." Lin Qisan said, "However, if I do it alone, I don't have much confidence, and there is no one in the book that is particularly suitable for me, which makes me especially want to act. role, so I hesitated whether to propose the company to open this project. It’s not like you write a script for Sister Xi, my desire is not very strong.”

"Then let's talk about it." Xiao Yao said, "The company does not have to have one of us to participate in the project, as long as it is worth filming, it can be filmed without our participation. Tell me What is the name, what is it roughly about, the popularity of the original work, the fan base, etc., let everyone discuss it."

"This one is very long. I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it clearly in a while. This one is about Tanmei, and there are quite a few book fans. I'm afraid it won't be adapted well, or it will be banned if it is filmed!" Lin Qisan said.

"Dan Mei Xiang?" Xiao Yao looked at Lin Qisan funnyly, then at Nina, and said with a smile, "Will you watch that? Is it you or Nina?"

"Okay, let's not talk about this!" Xiao Yao saw the embarrassment on the faces of both of them, and waved his hands, "It's up to the screenwriter to adapt it, and the TV station can't broadcast it. You can cooperate with video sites to make online dramas. The scale of web dramas should be a little looser. Of course, the most important thing is the quality. Since you feel that you can’t tell for a while, then send us the title of the book, and we will read it sometime, and then find another one. Time to discuss!"

"Okay!" Lin Qisan nodded quickly, "I'll send it to you at the end of the meeting."

"Where are the others?" Xiao Yao looked at the others and asked.

Zhu Zitong, Sun Tingting and others shook their heads.

"Where are the bosses?" Xiao Yao looked at the company's executives again.

"After our TV series was broadcast, the company received some scripts, and some companies and independent producers expressed their intention to cooperate with us." A senior manager said, "We did some preliminary screening."

"Those who want to cooperate, those who have a script can think about it, and those who don't have a script will wait until they have a script." Xiao Yao said, "The scripts you have screened out, let's take a look!"

"Mr. Xiao, of course there is no problem with reading the script," said the senior manager, "but there are several copies here, and we may not be able to read them all at night. What's more, now you have confirmed several scripts that you will do next year. The production cost of these projects has not been evaluated, and the production cost of these scripts has not been evaluated. Now only one of our three projects is profitable, and there are two films that have not been released. I don’t know the specific situation. , We plan too many projects, is it a little too big? Besides, the company does not have the personnel and ability to operate several projects at the same time."

"That's true!" Xiao Yao thought for a while, nodded, and thought, "It seems that it is indeed unrealistic to determine the work plan for the next year on this day."

"Then let's put the script away first." Xiao Yao said, "For the projects we discussed today, we should make a budget estimate for the production cost as soon as possible. These projects must have a higher priority. After the movie is released, the box office results come out, and the income can be calculated, we will consider whether to open other projects according to the specific situation."

Seeing Xiao Yao listened to the persuasion, several executives present were slightly relieved.

In fact, considering the company's current financial situation, it is not a problem to start a few more projects. The most important thing is that the first project is profitable, and the cost of the latter two projects is not high, and the chance of making money is not small. But what the executives are afraid of is that Xiao Yao, a young man who seems to be going smoothly and has no setbacks since his debut, is blindly confident and recklessly spreads too much.

Xiao Yao still has shares in other companies, and his family has a studio. Most of the other young shareholders also have a lot of money. Even if there are several projects that will lose money next year, the executives will not worry that the company will lose money next year. They will go bankrupt immediately, but the blow to their psychology and the impact on the company's employees will not be small.

"Is there anything else?" Xiao Yao looked at the crowd and asked.

"According to the several project plans that Mr. Xiao has determined," a senior executive said, "In addition to the company signing its own producers, directors, and screenwriters, other departments may also need to increase their manpower accordingly."

"No problem, let's recruit!" Xiao Yao said, "The bosses of your various departments discuss with the HR department, make plans and make up your own mind, so you don't need to discuss with us."

"Okay, Mr. Xiao!" Several executives nodded, "There is nothing else!"

"Okay, let's end today's meeting here! Thank you for your hard work!" Xiao Yao stood up and said.

Xiao Yao announced the adjournment of the meeting. Several executives greeted each other, got up, packed their things and left the meeting room.

Lin Qisan didn't leave, and grabbed Xiao Yao and asked, "Bayi, I see that in your script outline, the character of sister Yin Xi has a younger brother who is about the same age as the male protagonist. Do you think I'm suitable?"

"You want to take part in the drama between me and Sister Xi?" Xiao Yao asked in surprise.

"En!" Lin Qisan nodded.

"I'm also interested. If there is a suitable role, arrange one for me!" Zhao Rui also smiled and said.

"I'm talking about you two," Xiao Yao said with a wry smile, "Can't you find the script if you want to act? Why do you all come to me?"

"I just want to act with Sister Xi!" Lin Qisan said.

"I'm like you. I haven't acted in an urban idol drama before. I want to try it out!" Zhao Rui said.

"What about you?" Xiao Yao looked at the others.

"I don't know how to act, but if there is no conflict in time, I don't mind a cameo role." Zhou Zhihao took the lead in raising his hand with a smile.

"We also really want to play together. We don't care about the size of the role or the number of roles. You can look at the arrangement." Zhu Zitong and Nina both said.

"I'll save it!" Sun Tingting shook her head with a smile, "I'm afraid that if I'm there, you and Sister Xi will be embarrassed when filming intimate scenes, so I won't get involved this time!"

"Okay!" Xiao Yao thought for a while, "But except for the extra characters requested by Haozi, the rest of you will read the script and choose your favorite characters to participate in the audition after the script is completed. If you pass the audition, you will be accepted, and if you don't, you will be cancelled. Think about it, I don’t open the back door here.”

"Cut~" Lin Qisan curled his lips and said, "Based on our appearance, acting skills, and reputation, there are more than enough male and female protagonists in idol dramas, and we can't pass the audition for an idol drama supporting role? Do you need to open the back door?"

"This time you are not caught by the producer, director, and screenwriter, but someone else is the producer and director." Zhao Rui also said, "As long as you don't deliberately obstruct it as a producer, I don't worry about us You won't pass the audition."
