Chapter 353 Just thinking about it, I couldn't help but hum.
Looking at the thick and many scripts, Su Meng didn't feel tired at all.
On the contrary, I started reading with great interest.
This reading can't stop at all.
Xu Kong's script is different from most of the scripts she has seen before, and this time this time is even more so, even different from "The Beginning".
It is specifically reflected in the psychological descriptions of some environments and roles.
Usually, the script is mainly presented in plain words. In order to convey information as efficiently as possible, the characters' dialogues are mostly based on the characters' dialogues.
But Xu Kong's script "Ghost Blows Out the Light" makes him feel like reading a novel. It can be said that while maintaining the traditional script framework, it greatly increases the so-called sense of introductory.
So, I couldn't stop seeing it at all.
Especially about the various novel fantasy settings inside, this drama is actually a tomb robbery theme that she had never heard of before.
In addition to the novelty of the setting, there are all kinds of strange ancient tombs, rich deadly mechanisms, eye-opening unique creatures, etc....
It seems that it has opened the door to a new world.
What is certain is that not to mention domestic, there is probably no drama like this in the whole world.
The unique thing is no longer something that can be summarized by a fantasy adventure type.
…
It took a whole afternoon to read all the complete scripts of the eight movies in one breath.
I also briefly reviewed some novel settings and detailed storyboard scripts.
Until I came to my senses, I noticed a clear sense of hunger coming from my stomach.
When I looked out the window again, it was already dark.
She was about to speak, but she heard Xu Kong take the initiative to say:
"Why don't you eat something first?"
Xu Kong certainly couldn't stay here and wait for Su Meng to finish watching.
He went out several times in the middle. In addition to going to Zhu Yu's office to communicate with the place on a daily basis, he also accompanied Song Youyou to Fengge's own cafeteria for a meal.
She packed a copy for Su Meng and brought it back.
…
He could clearly know that it was difficult for most directors to not be moved after watching the series "Ghost Blows Out the Light".
It's just that some directors may have some of their own ideas.
Go and adapt or add some of your own private goods in.
The biggest advantage of Su Meng is that she can restore the original flavor.
With Xu Kong's words, the other party would not change the script or shoot according to his own ideas.
This incident is indeed not a good thing for the director himself, and it represents a lack of the most critical creativity.
But it is perfect for Xu Kong.
It can be said that he is a very suitable tool.
So after Su Meng started reading the script, Xu Kong no longer worried that the other party would turn down this opportunity.
Because of the original work in the previous life, the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series did bring its own traffic and attention.
But at the same time, with the original work as the basis, the audience will more ignore the existence of directors and screenwriters.
In this life, I skip the novel and take out mature dramas.
The director and starring of this series are sure to make a splash, and it is not difficult to let the director himself soar through this series.
After all, so far, there is no successful series in China.
Most of them are sitcoms.
Compared to Europe and the United States who like to film a series for many years, it is indeed not a style.
Of course, there are certain risks.
Even Xu Kong couldn't say that he could succeed.
It is normal for a weak situation in the later stage of the series. The freshness and the excitingness of the plot itself determine this.
But as long as you shoot carefully, even if you only want to restore it, this series will most likely not go anywhere.
...
"Mr. Xu, I want to take a photo!"
As expected, Su Meng, who had finished the meal in a few bites, couldn't wait to speak.
Xu Kong smiled and said: "Then go and do it."
"Take it slow. If you have any problems in the process, you can communicate with me at any time."
Su Meng's expression was a little hesitant, but she couldn't help but add:
"It's just that the investment budget of this series may..."
Su Meng actually discovered it just after reading the script that the entire "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series, the cost of watching various scenes is probably not low.
Add to the proportion of special effects, it is definitely quite high.
Perhaps the investment in a drama alone has reached a very amazing level. "It doesn't matter, we didn't finish filming at one time." "If you shoot one by one, the company can still afford it in terms of budget." Xu Kong's advantages as one of Fengge's bosses were reflected at this time.
Although even if you are not the boss, if you take out such a series of scripts, most companies will probably have to take a gamble even if they have no money to borrow money.
However, since you have the right to speak, "Ghost Blows Out the Light" doesn't have to spend too much time raising the investment budget.
The net income brought back by "The Beginning" this time is at least 700 million to 800 million. Although Xu Kong is only the so-called vice president, Song Fuquan has indeed had full confidence when he has already completely delegated power.
Su Meng also knew this, and after hearing Xu Kong's words, she breathed a little relieved.
The plot of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is one aspect, but in terms of investment budget, especially in terms of scenes, props, and special effects, it can be said that it is the key to determining the quality of the final film.
With Xu Kong's opening, people don't have to worry about these things.
Of course, the special effects of Fengge itself are not at the top level in China, but they are not bad at all.
And as long as you are willing to spend money, Su Meng is confident that she will make this drama well with Fengge's almost the most complete film and television industry process in China.
…
The series "Ghost Blows Out the Light" was officially launched.
Of course, for Xu Kong, his current mission has been completed, and Su Meng is expected to be able to solve everything in the future.
However, when it comes to casting, Xu Kong will definitely participate in it.
Xu Kong's original plan is indeed planning to play the leading role.
But thinking about the time span and energy issues that this series needs to be filmed, coupled with the inconsistency of the character's age, I finally gave up.
However, casting does need to be taken seriously.
Especially, in order to ensure that no unexpected happens, the three main iron triangles must be chosen as Fengge's own artist.
This is true, including some supporting characters in it.
For a similar series, the biggest taboo is the change of actors in the middle.
Series in Europe and the United States are renewal models. If something happens in the middle, you can also change the script to avoid similar situations.
But the three iron triangles in "Ghost Blows Out the Light" are almost all the main characters, and there is definitely no way to replace them in the middle.
…
"The total investment in series is estimated to exceed 2 billion?"
Yan Rui was also shocked when he heard the news. Although there were too many shocking decisions and operations for Xu Kong, Yan Rui still a little amazes his tongue this time.
Although Su Meng's "The Beginning" is indeed a big hit, the new drama suddenly increased its investment scale this time, which is really a bit radical.
Soon, the relevant news began to spread within Fengge.
Almost everyone knows that Su Meng’s new drama is a big investment.
And the most important thing is that although it is not yet the formal audition and casting stage.
But it is said that it is likely that the company's internal actors will still be activated, and Xu Kong has confirmed that he will not participate in the performance, and now there are only a limited number of actors to choose, and everyone has the opportunity to become the male lead.
…
"I think the company's new drama is so popular this time, don't be like "The World of Power" on Changyun Film and Television..."
Fengge Company's Artist Department, Xiang Tianlei spoke.
He is still the same, although his former colleague Liu Yue has successfully gained millions of fans with Lu Di, a supporting role in "The Beginning".
But in Xiang Tianlei's opinion, there is still more luck.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小�
If it were in the past, he might have finished his words and many people around him had already begun to echo.
But this time, the scene suddenly became strangely quiet.
Xiang Tianlei received a new drama during this period. Although he was just a supporting role, he was indeed a big crew.
After a while, I will join the group to shoot.
He is now back to his previous state of disdain for some of Feng Ge's characters.
But everyone is not foolish, of course they are very clear that although the current Fengge is not as good as before, it is also the most opportunity stage.
Liu Yue is a pretty good example.
No one is really stupid enough to make this company publicly audition for an actor's drama, subconsciously treating it as a work to lose.
In particular, it is said that Su Meng is still in charge of the director of "The Beginning", and the script was also written by Xu Kong, which was even more so.
…
"Uh, you guys talk first, I guess there are two performance classes later."
Someone present suddenly spoke, eased the awkward atmosphere, but attracted the attention of others present.
"When did this guy, Lao Li, start taking acting classes?"
Most of the people present were actually considered professional.
After graduation, I stayed in many crews. Before that, everyone agreed that they lacked an opportunity to show off. As for acting skills, it is definitely impossible to think that they lost to others.
So although the company has arranged similar performance classes or related training, no one takes it seriously.
At this time, an exception suddenly appeared, which inevitably made people think a little more.
"I'll have something to do later..."
Soon, the second person who spoke and left voluntarily appeared.
None of us is a fool, and it would be a bit impossible if we haven't noticed anything.
It was obvious that this suddenly started acting class.
It is obviously preparing for the company's role in a new drama this time!
After realizing this, the remaining four or five people almost tacitly left the activity room where they usually gathered together to brag and chat.
Until the end, Xiang Tianlei was the only one left on the scene.
…
It is obvious that Xiang Tianlei's expression was still a little disdainful at this time.
He doesn't think that this new drama can really be selected by them.
But at the same time, there are some small expectations in my heart.
That is whether Su Meng or Xu Kong knew that the actor under his company would directly invite him to audition for the male lead or something like that.
Through this thought, a new drama began to become popular, and as the male lead, he was completely popular.
Then he even asked Xu Kong to make a movie tailor-made for himself to enter the film industry.
Then, it is nothing more than becoming a box office champion of 10 billion yuan, winning both fame and fortune, and starting to become an international superstar.
Changyun Film and Television offered an outrageous sky-high price for him, and Fengge started to compete in order to keep him.
Which side should I choose?
How to see Feng Ge is indeed more suitable for him, after all, Xu Kong can help him tailor the script.
If possible, of course, I will play the second male lead in the movie to play for myself.
At this time, Xiang Tianlei couldn't help but hum lightly just thinking about it.
…
But what he didn't know was that it was obvious that in addition to himself, he was also immersed in this fantasy of being a high-minded person.
The original people around him began to realize that the opportunity was hard-won.
It is no longer the time when the so-called newcomer training plan was the time when all kinds of resources could be thrown on oneself like pies falling from the sky.
Because of a new drama that has not been released at present, these infamous actors under Fengge have begun to enter an introductory stage.
Although there have been people before, it is not a popular internal performance class, and now it can be said that it is full.
Everyone is trying to gain a role in the future and try to improve their business capabilities in all aspects.
Actually, what Xiang Tianlei said makes sense. Even if Feng Ge doesn't get a role and there are so many crews outside, how could they really lack acting?
It's just a requirement for the scale of the script and crew investment.
But others were more aware of one thing, that is, outside dramas, nine out of ten, almost all of which were so loud that they didn't even sound at all.
Instead of going to some small crews to compete for the so-called male first and male second, it is better to be honest in Xu Kong's drama.
Lu Di played by Liu Yue is a very good example.
…
"I heard that many newcomers from the company have worked very hard recently?"
Soon, even Xu Kong knew about the relevant news. "Well, it seems that the news of Su Meng's new drama has been spread. Now the internal performance classes have been full."
When talking about this, even Zhu Yu felt a little outrageous. "It's okay, it's a great thing." Xu Kong replied with a smile.
"It's a pity that our company currently has few advanced performance teachers with sufficient abilities."
"Most of them tend to be introductory courses."
Xu Kong said with some regret.
There is no way, Zhu Changyun did take away a lot of people.
Otherwise, Feng Ge was definitely the strongest company in the training of professional actors in China.
And they are all very practical, not quite the same as those in academic schools like the film academy.
Of course, in Xu Kong's opinion, it is a good thing to have such an atmosphere.
After all, there are probably times when there are no actors in the future.
After Feng Ge's actors are trained, it is of course a good thing to be able to use their own.
