"No. Well, Brother Zhang...does this drama really have a chance of success?"

Because he really didn't believe that this TV series, which he thought was completely ruined just by looking at the script, would be successful in the end, so Gao Yuan couldn't help but ask Zhang Chen at this time.

As a result, Zhang Chen heard this and said: "???"

When did he say that this play would not be successful?

The fact is that in the time and space he once lived in, this drama can even be said to be the "originator" that once led the entire "online drama" trend.

Of course, there are still many controversial points in this web drama. In fact, most traditional TV viewers simply cannot accept the many "noisy points" in this drama.

However, even so, this still does not prevent it from becoming one of the most classic and popular "online dramas" many years later.

Moreover, its reputation was not formed in a day or two. When this drama first came online, the entire crew was scolded to the point that everyone on the crew almost had autism. Because, at that time

The negative reviews of it from viewers all over the Internet are almost to the point where it can be described with the adjective "several words and written words".

However, as the plot slowly progressed, the one-sided criticism quickly disappeared, and what followed was an almost equal amount of support and opposition. It was a pros and cons scene.

A huge scuffle of opinions!

And this "toxic thunder drama", which was originally unknown, started to become popular at an extremely fast speed amid waves of intense controversy.

Of course, this is just the road to fame of this "web drama" in its original time and space. This can only be used as a reference, and it certainly cannot be completely regarded as a "prediction" of future development in this time and space.

However, Zhang Chen actually believes it very much. Even if it is in this time and space, as long as this web drama can be filmed as he imagined, he believes that this drama will be in this time and space.

Here, it should be able to set off huge waves. Because, after all, many things in art, in many cases, lead to the same goal through different paths.

But there is a very important premise for this, which is that he must personally "lead" the entire "birth" process of this online drama.

Otherwise, if there is even a small deviation in this process, he estimates that this drama will not be popular. After all, if this drama is really "excluded" by someone accidentally

If it were an element that was more recognized as a "sparkling point" in another time and space, others would call it the "big thunder drama of the century", and I believe Zhang Chen himself would probably agree with it.

And because he wanted to achieve such a "goal", Zhang Chen actually wanted to find a very weird director to direct this drama, because this drama was already weird enough! It was really replaced by a very weird director.

If an orthodox director were to direct this play, Zhang Chen believed that he would probably be driven crazy within three days.

As for why it is necessary to find a college student who has just graduated? In fact, it is mainly because Zhang Chen is worried that an overqualified director will not agree with a "layman" like him to lead this film. What he needs now is a "yes man"

"The same new director is not a big, awesome director with his own style.

Of course, although he needs to be a new director like a "yes man", he still has requirements for the professionalism of this new director.

Because, no matter how weird the web drama he is about to shoot is, in fact, there are many parts that are shot very well. For example, the aesthetic feeling;

Another example is that kind of very magical laughter;

Without a certain degree of professionalism, it is really impossible to shoot well. Therefore, he required that this new director must have the experience of presiding over the filming of a complete work.

Of course, the most important thing is to hope that he will not have any problems in the shooting technique. However, in terms of the performance of the work, I hope that he will be a complete failure, lest he will be "proud" when the time comes.

If you don't obey the arrangement, then it is completely inconsistent with Zhang Chen's original intention of finding someone.

Fortunately, such a situation did not happen in the end, because Gao Yuan's ability to do things was still very reliable.

In fact, Zhang Chen's original request to Gao Yuan was just to help him find such a person in his spare time; there was no sense of "urgency".

Because, he did not expect that Su Mi would encounter any unexpected events this time when he went to the "charity party" hosted by "project z".

Su Mi had never even mentioned this matter to him. Therefore, his original starting point was actually just to use such a "thunder drama" to "stand" in the film and television industry.

Just keep a firm foothold. Otherwise, if Su Mi really needs it, he won't even have a place to focus his efforts.

The reason why he thought of this was actually that he had heard about Su Mi and the others before, but now her popularity has dropped too much. As a result, one of the TV series that she had already negotiated to film

The character was withdrawn immediately after being told to withdraw!

In this regard, the "damage" to Su Mi was really great. Because such a role was a very important step for her to return to the film and television industry after many years. However, she never expected that

One thing is, it hasn’t officially started yet”, but now it’s just “stopped”?

Zhang Chen was actually worried about whether such a similar situation would happen again in the future, so he decided to "join" the film and television industry, which was also irrelevant to him.

But it is really difficult for "outsiders" like Su Mi and Gao Yuan to imagine his "starting point" for making such a decision.

Because they never imagined that even if Zhang Chen joined the "film and television industry" in an unrelated capacity, he would actually be able to do very well in a short period of time.

"Okay. Brother Zhang, anyway, I have found the person for you! Moreover, I have also informed him that in two days, we will go over for the interview. At that time, you can make a decision whether it is okay or not."

"Also, I have already credited the company's dividend to your card. The total amount is just over one million."

"But, do you really plan to invest only this million to film a TV series? Isn't it a little less? Otherwise, I... I will invest a little bit in you privately? Well, let's consider it a joint venture between us.

! It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not, at least you have to film this drama, right? Only investing one million is really a bit small!"

…

Gao Yuan finally said to Zhang Chen.

However, how could he accept Zhang Chen's "kind-hearted" proposal?

One million is still less? Are you kidding me? You know, this thunder drama in another time and space only cost 900,000 to film.

He has invested 1 million now, why can't he still make it? Because, you know, for this thunder drama, "poor" is its characteristic, if he really invested too much money

Well, if the crew is too lenient, it is very likely that the original charm of the entire drama will be lost.

Besides, what Gao Yuan just said was a joint venture. However, how could he be willing to join a joint venture with Gao Yuan? He knew that this drama would definitely become a hit after it was released, which meant that it would definitely be a big hit.

By then, you may even have cramps in your hands counting money!

A joint venture with Gao Yuan? Wouldn't that be giving up his own interests in vain? He is not stupid, how could he do such a stupid thing? Thinking of this, Zhang Chen said, "No need. One million is enough! Okay.

, I also plan to try my best to control the cost below 800,000!"

Gao Yuan: "..."

He was really dumbfounded for a moment.

As for the approximate cost of filming a TV series, in fact, it’s not like he didn’t know it beforehand.

What can be said is that with a cost of 800,000 yuan, you want to shoot a TV series with at least dozens of episodes? This is really, very difficult, and it can even be said to be fantastic!

Because, in terms of actors' appearance fees alone, this measly 800,000 yuan basically cannot hire any famous actors at all. In fact, let alone some relatively famous actors, we can even hire some

It would probably be too much for a fourth- or fifth-tier actor to be the leading actor. Because, for an ordinary fourth- or fifth-tier actor to star in a TV series with at least dozens of episodes, the remuneration would not reach seven figures.

In this circle, it is simply unimaginable.

But when Gao Yuan raised this "question" to Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen looked at him strangely and quickly said, "Invite a famous actor? Why invite a famous actor? A performance from the Art Academy

Aren’t there a lot of handsome guys and beauties in the department? Just find a few good-looking ones to play!”

"Well, as for the heroine, we need to put more thought into it. We must find one with good looks. In addition, her acting skills must be good enough!" Zhang Chen thought for a while and finally said.

The main reason why he suddenly made such a request is that he has not forgotten that for this entire drama, in fact, the heroine's appearance and acting skills are actually the "most important thing" in this entire drama.

Essence".

If the heroine's appearance is not good enough, or her acting skills are not good enough, it will actually affect the final effect of the drama. On the contrary, whether the heroine is famous or not is not at all important.

Within the scope of Zhang Chen’s consideration.

Because, in another time and space, the heroine in this drama was actually unknown before filming this drama.

In other words, the main selling point of this drama is not actually which character is played by which actor.

This drama is mainly about the "noisy" kind of "thunder rolling". It can make a lot of actors famous, but it doesn't rely on a lot of actors to make it famous.

"Uh. Is this drama really going to be a hit?"

"Will the heroine be popular in the future? Well, why not just find my sister-in-law to play the role?"

…

After Gao Yuan knew Zhang Chen's thoughts, he quickly asked. However, as soon as he said the words, he immediately regretted it and almost didn't even think about giving himself a big mouth.

Because, now that he thinks about it, the question he just asked was really too silly.

Because, he actually believed the nonsense that Zhang Chen said, "This drama can be popular"! How is this possible? Isn't it?

If this drama could really become popular, he would be willing to write those two characters of Gao Yuan backwards!

This is really ridiculous, isn't it?

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Chen did not consider letting Su Mi play the heroine at all, right?

Gao Yuan thought in his heart. However, it turned out that he had to mention it just now. No wonder, Gao Yuan felt that something was "off" in the way Zhang Chen looked at him.

Of course, this is actually just Gao Yuan's own illusion.

The fact is that the main reason why Zhang Chen did not consider Su Mi to play the heroine was because he was worried that this drama would affect Su Mi's image.

After all, Su Mi's past image in the film and television industry was that of a "goddess", not a "female psycho"!

However, the requirement for the heroine in this drama is to be a "female nerve". Although she is a very beautiful "female nerve". However, for Su Mi's image, it is almost "subversive"

of.

Zhang Chen was just worried that Su Mi would not be able to let go and would not be able to let go of her idol baggage.

By then, the results will definitely be bad. Moreover, he didn't actually think that Su Mi's current situation was so difficult that she needed to rely on filming online dramas to survive.

After all, web dramas are still web dramas after all. Although, he also knows that after a web drama becomes really popular, its popularity can be no less than that of a regular popular drama.

But, in the eyes of current insiders, actors filming online dramas are naturally shorter than actors filming regular TV dramas.

If Su Mi is really "reduced" to the point of filming an online drama, it goes without saying that when the news is spread, it will definitely cause a lot of discussion on the Internet.

Zhang Chen just didn't want Su Mi to fall into such a "whirlpool" again, and in his mind, there really weren't too many other popular drama characters that fit Su Mi's image. So, at the beginning,

, he really had no intention of inviting Su Mi to star in this TV series. In fact, his intention was just to rely on this small-cost web series to establish a foothold in the industry first, and then have other good ones in the future.

It's a good role in a good drama, and he arranged for Su Mi to star in it.

This is the greatest "help" to Su Mi.
