Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 437: The first online movie, let’s start!
The popularity of the MV means that Zhou Hao successfully passed the first level of the mock exam.

During the latest video conference, Youying's budget target for online movies directly increased by 50%.

For capital, money is the most real thing.

Giving you this budget increase is better than any verbal praise!

The MV "My Dream" has completely conquered the Youying team!
However, Zhou Hao was not in a hurry to start preparing for the online movie immediately. After all, he was not the one in a hurry now, so he could just delay it.

Even though the budget has increased by 50%, it is still only $ million.

If 15 million is only used for filming, it may be more than enough. After all, Zhou Hao can handle many processes by himself, and the actors he chooses are generally not expensive.

But the problem is that the 15 million also includes the subsequent publicity and promotion costs...that's a bit humorous.

not enough!

Far from enough!

Keep dragging it out until Youying continues to increase the budget!

While he was delaying the process to the outside world, he had already started writing the script privately.

And it's not just one, but several scripts are being worked on at the same time, and we will decide which one to shoot based on demand when the time comes.

Anyway, the amount of text in a movie script is not that large in comparison, so it is quite easy to copy.

Apart from writing the script, almost all of the rest of my time was devoted to "Ghost Blows Out the Light".

After the initial skepticism, this book caused a small storm with its unique setting and its mysterious and tense sense of immersion.

Not only did the old book fans express their approval of this new book, but even the new fans of suspense books were also captivated by it.

It’s not that Miaobi has not written about similar topics in the suspense section, but in terms of writing style, story structure, and professionalism in related knowledge fields... they are simply not on the same level.

In the words of a book fan - reading other novels of the same type feels like reading a novel.

Watching "Ghost Blowing the Light" is like walking into that mysterious world...

Horror, mystery, excitement... you can't stop watching it!

Many insiders in the entertainment industry have already seen through the adaptation potential of this novel and have begun to take action quietly.

Peter Lam called personally and asked about the possibility of future collaboration on the TV series of "Ghost Blows Out the Light".

The new owner, Youying, has already tried to inquire about the possibility of adapting the film...

Faced with these rounds of temptations, Zhou Hao's attitude was always - let's talk about it later.

After the previous breakups and reunions with Penguin, he finally realized that if you want to survive in this circle, you must never talk about "favors" with capital.

If you talk about feelings with capital, capital will only use your feelings to estimate its value!
So, profiteering is the end of it.

Anyway, the novel has just begun, so there is no rush.

It won’t be too late to discuss cooperation after this book begins to shine and truly becomes famous in the online literature circle!
While he was in seclusion writing a book, several new generals recruited by the studio began to arrive one after another.

Zhao Leilei signed a contract to sell herself and officially became the new female general of Jinghong Studio. At least before Xu Lingyue came back, she would be the "number one" in music of Jinghong Studio!
Then Lin Xina also came to join in the fun, but she could only be regarded as a "foreign aid" on loan. After all, her agency contract was in the hands of Peter Lam and he would never let her go.

But even if it was just a temporary "transfer", Lin Xina's appearance still caused a sensation throughout the studio, especially the male employees, who were all excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Who doesn’t like this young, beautiful and good-tempered beauty?
The last two to arrive were the two male performers who had shined on the Spring Festival Gala stage - Zhang Shaowu and Du Peng.

The situations of these two people are relatively special. On the surface, they both came directly to join Zhou Hao.

However, due to their employment status, the two of them are unable to sign a formal agency contract for the time being, which makes them feel like they are in a difficult position in the eyes of everyone.

It’s just that Zhou Hao himself doesn’t care, and naturally no one in the studio will say anything more, so they just accept it and leave it at that.

And over in Yanjing, there is a Miss Su who is eagerly waiting for him to start a new play!
Thinking of this, Zhou Hao felt that it was a wise choice to write several movie scripts at the same time.

It's obviously unrealistic to put so many actors in one film, so let's take it one step at a time!
Anyway, for online movies, neither the requirements for shooting quality nor the cycle of the entire production process are as troublesome as those for theatrical movies.

What's more, his Jinghong Studio is now the "direct son" of Youying. It is estimated that all processes will be green-lit, and the efficiency is absolutely guaranteed.

In this case, let’s take a good look at what a “quick shooter” is, and give this lifeless online celebrity circle a little shock!

As April approached, the temperature began to recover significantly, and Zhou Hao had completely broken away from the comfort of the Spring Festival and entered a high-intensity work mode again.

After about ten days of preparation, he officially finalized the script for his first online movie.

The heroine of this drama is confirmed to be Lin Xina.

This girl's image, reputation and popularity are all at their peak now, and she can still bring in some box office revenue in the online movie industry.

Su Wei was a little angry about this - I've been waiting for so long, and you not only don't customize a movie for me, but you don't even give me a supporting role?

This is too much!

But Zhou Hao did not give in because he had his own considerations.

First, Su Wei had too few works before, and her popularity base was very weak. In terms of box office and traffic-attracting abilities, she really couldn’t beat Lin Xina at this stage.

Second, Su Wei’s status is already there, and asking her to star in an online movie directly would be "condescending" and may very likely cause some unnecessary trouble.

Wait until he makes some noise in the online movie field, and then invite her to star in it, which will save a lot of trouble.

Thirdly...there really wasn't any role in the script he had that was particularly suitable for Su Wei.

After all, the audience of online movies is relatively young. If one wants to reap the benefits, the younger and more beautiful Lin Xina is obviously the more suitable sickle.

So his script was tailor-made for Lin Xina from the very beginning!
For him, this is not just a web movie, but his answer sheet to prove to the entire industry his ability to direct feature films.

Although "My Dream" was successful, it is just a short film after all.

Feature films are another story!
Now almost the entire industry, especially the other two of the Big Three, are watching his every move with eager eyes, looking forward to his first online work.

After all, in this field, the Big Three are almost all lying down and doing nothing. They have tried countless times but have not been able to produce any decent results.

Everyone wants to see whether Zhou Hao can create a miracle again!
On April 4, after nearly half a month of preparation, Zhou Hao's debut online film officially started filming!
