Chapter 59 Don't stop the camera!

As the largest communication platform on the Internet today, Tieba has a strong vitality, with hundreds of millions of active users every day.

Compared with the solid backstage teams of other star actors, Cheng Shuo's team seems a bit lonely.

On weekdays, I rely on Tangren’s staff to post pictures on my behalf, and the response is mediocre, but today Cheng Shuo’s personal post bar is very lively.

Thanks to Cheng Shuo's fame with his album before this offline promotion, Tieba has accumulated a lot of following users.

Coupled with the various pictures during publicity, he immediately became popular.

Cheng Shuo likes the low profile of fans at this time, which is also shown in the profile of his personal post bar.

Cheng Shuo's main honor: ranked fifth among the top four college students in 2009.

Although it looks a bit shabby, at least he is very humble and does not fight or compete.

He quite yearned for Wang Qianyuan's style later on. Although he got paid more than those young freshmen, he was not resented by others and made money in secret.

After comforting myself, I casually clicked on a post. The map of the town building was exactly the one I used during the offline promotion a few days ago.

In the picture, Cheng Shuo is holding a toy with a puzzled look on his face.

A glance at the reply: "Cheng Shuo has doubts about his own species at this time."

Next, fans who participated in the offline promotion that day sent a group photo.

He also added text to praise Cheng Shuo, "Originally the organizer didn't want to take a group photo, but Cheng Shuo and Hu Ge still took a group photo with us after signing autographs. Cheng Shuo looks much more handsome offline than in front of the camera.

, the face also looks smaller.”

A series of envy came back to this floor.

"His hands were tired, but his smile was very real when taking pictures."

A user with a lower level of twelve immediately responded: "Lu has become a fan."

There were more and more replies. After Cheng Shuo finished reading one page, the number of replies had already reached more than 300 floors.

The results are very gratifying. In an era when publicity is completely in the hands of the media, such online carnivals are rare.

Without any thought of ending up personally, Cheng Shuo closed the web page with satisfaction, rubbed his brows, and opened Weibo.

Weibo has been open for internal testing in August, but due to the number of users and publicity, it is not very popular now.

Although the publicity of Qianlang is very active, there are actually not many celebrities who have settled there now.

Cheng Shuo naturally knew about this business opportunity and immediately registered an account, but did not do much to maintain it.

The market is not clear yet, users have not poured in in large numbers, and it is not the best time to raise an account.

Many celebrity teams don't pay much attention to Weibo and don't regard Weibo as a platform for brand building, but leave it to the celebrities themselves to take care of it.

A more representative example is classmate Yang Mi, who blindly treats Weibo as a circle of friends, surfs intensively, and posts everything.

The first one is quite satisfactory, it is just a self-introduction after registering an account.

But starting from the second article, her style of painting began to change.

Some complained: After the jet-lag nightlife, another day of waking up early and staying late at night began.

There are also those who express their inner dissatisfaction bluntly: Cheng Shuo bullies others too much.

Cheng Shuo looked at the date and saw that it happened to be the day when her invitation to act was rejected. After thinking about it, she silently gave a thumbs up.

Then he returned to the homepage and posted another photo of himself in "Sword Rain" with makeup.

This photo was taken by someone with a mobile phone. The pixels are a bit low, but compared to the plastic texture of Chonglou’s makeup photos, it’s much better in terms of service.

After sending the picture, Cheng Shuo put down his phone and started typing on the computer.

After "Fairy Sword 3", Tangren also succeeded in "Bu Bu Jingxin". Although "Xuanyuan Sword" returned to the fairy tale field that Tangren was good at, it was difficult to reproduce the glory of the Fairy Sword series.

It's impossible to count on sugar people. They praise you with all their heart, but they inevitably fall short of what they can do.

Cheng Shuo is planning to make a movie, and you have to have dreams.

But now there are several small problems before him: no funds, no actors, no script, no team, and no publicity.

Holding the pen in his mouth, Cheng Shuo made an estimate. When all the funds were accounted for, he would probably have about 200,000 yuan. Excluding equipment expenses and publicity expenses, he would be able to spend this amount on filming.

Actors can find artists under Sugar Man. If it's Liu Shishi, it's easy to negotiate and maybe the other party can give him some money. The only disadvantage is that the artists under Sugar Man are basically insulated from the movie and can't contribute much acting skills.

For the filming team, you can find a filming team that Sugar Man can work with. Although most of them are TV drama directors, they are at least much better than you. But since you have chosen them, don't expect any superb filming techniques.

After thinking about this, Cheng Shuo temporarily set a tone.

He integrated resources and made predictions, and what he could complete was probably a film with an investment of less than 200,000 yuan, a protagonist with no acting skills, and almost no shooting techniques.

Finished, Cheng Shuo flicked the pen in his hand and inserted his fingers into his hair.

How about hooking up with Jing Tian? Let her invest a little money?

Putting this unrealistic idea behind him, Cheng Shuo started brainstorming again.

He couldn't help but not be in a hurry, 10 years was already a hurdle. When Damimi's "Far Cry" was released and dominated the box office with a pair of headlights and crazy fans, everyone understood how good the fan economy is.

Why should he compete with those capitals with abundant capital flows?

After sitting like a wooden man for half the night, Cheng Shuo finally eliminated all domestic movies and invested 1.7 million in "Maze of the Heart."

Expanding the screening scope, Cheng Shuo's eyes suddenly lit up, and a movie appeared in his mind.

"Don't Stop the Camera"!

With an investment of 180,000 yuan, the horror film was shot with a handheld camera, which not only increased the sense of immersion, but also saved editing funds, and it did not require any superb shooting techniques. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.

Moreover, the story in the film is a play within a play, and the heroine does not need any acting skills. It can even be said that the worse the performance, the better the effect.

With an investment of 180,000 yuan, the box office exceeded 100 million yuan, and it also received unanimous praise.

Cheng Shuo does not expect the film market today to be as vast as it was in 2018, but as long as it exceeds one million, it will be a very remarkable achievement.

Yang Mi can earn more than 100 million at the box office with just a pair of headlights. There is no reason why the already proven success of "Don't Stop the Camera" should be worse than "Far Cry".

That’s it.

Just do whatever comes to mind. The first part of Cheng Shuo's plan was not to contact the actor preparation team to raise funds to write the script, but to ask for Yang Mi's phone number from Zhang Yuan.

After clearing her throat, she heard a vague "hello" on the other end of the phone.

Cheng Shuo offered his few sincerity, "I'm sorry."

"Cheng Shuo?" Yang Mi was obviously much more awake. A rustling sound came out, and it sounded like he was sitting up in bed.

"it's me."

"Say it again."

"it's me."

"That's not the sentence."

"sorry."

Yang Mi hummed with satisfaction, then continued: "I don't agree."

She knew how tough Cheng Shuo was. If he had nothing to ask her for, how could he rush to call her?

Cheng Shuo sighed: "I haven't said my request yet."

"You don't have to say it, I don't agree."
