From Composer to Entertainment Superstar

"By the way, who does Brother Xuan want to film this TV series? Otherwise, I will film it." Chen Kai said.

"Are you okay? You haven't finished filming "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" yet?" Zhu Xu said.

"No, it will probably take another month or two."

"Isn't that right? After one or two months of filming, plus post-editing, it will take at least three or four months. Why are you here to film a TV series? Besides, you are still from Tianyu now."

"Lao Zhu, please don't provoke me. Believe it or not, I will just give up the burden and go directly to find you?" Chen Kai said.

"Actually, I really hope you can come over. The film and television department here in Tianhai are all young directors, and none of them can shoulder the responsibility, but we can't do this. At least Mr. Lu can treat you well, right?"

"That's true. After you left, didn't Xu Ke take over your position? Then Lu Tianyu wanted me to take over as the head of the film and television department, but I pushed him away. By the way, Tianyu will definitely die? No.

Other possibilities? I think Tianyu is doing quite well recently, and he is doing well in every aspect."

"It's just madness before death. Lu Tianyu should never choose direct listing. The risk of direct listing is too great. If there is any slight disturbance, Tianyu will not be able to handle it."

"Okay, then I will accompany Tianyu for the last part of the journey with peace of mind. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet, who does Brother Xuan plan to let film this TV series?"

"He took the photos himself."

"Ah? Brother Xuan knows how to make movies?"

"Who knows, anyway, he said he has this hobby."

"Again, it's a hobby? His hobbies are quite extensive. But judging from his writing of scripts, maybe he really knows how to do it."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, he said that the maximum investment is tens of millions, and if you lose, you will lose." Zhu Xu said, even now, he still dare not have too much hope for Wang Xuan to make a TV series. It is basically the kind of study with the prince.

mentality.

.....

Since there is no problem with the TV series, it can be filed.

The so-called filing, in short, means that after selecting the script, with a story outline describing the theme of the play, main characters, historical background, storyline, etc., apply to the Provincial Radio, Film and Television Bureau (Department) for TV drama theme planning and approval.

There is a premise for this. The subject of the project must hold a "Radio and Television Program Production and Operation License" or belong to a film production organization holding a "Film Production License", or be a television station (including radio and television stations) at or above the prefectural and municipal level (including radio and television).

TV stations, radio, film and television groups).

Tianhai not only holds a "Radio and Television Program Production and Operation License", but also belongs to a film production organization that holds a "Film Production License". In other words, it involves all aspects of the entertainment industry, and Tianhai's certificates are complete. This is

Tianhai was the place that Wang Xuan valued most at first.

On the surface, Tianhai is half-ruined, and all departments are empty, but Tianhai has everything that should be there. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. And if Wang Xuan gets these things by himself, he doesn't know that it will take him a year and a month to get them.

Zhu Xu took the materials prepared by Wang Xuan and went to the Shanghai Radio, Film and Television Bureau for filing. Normally, after the project is filed, it takes 20 working days for review, so after submitting the filing, Zhu Xu returned to the company. Unexpectedly

Five days later, the Shanghai Radio, Film and Television Bureau notified Zhu Xu that the project registration for the TV series "Together" had been approved, which surprised Zhu Xu.

"What's going on? Doesn't the TV drama project registration need 20 days of review? Even if you apply for expedited application, it will take at least 15 days to get the result. When have you ever seen the result in 5 days?" Zhu Xu was really dumbfounded.

Little does he know that although the selection of "Ode to the Motherland" as China's second national anthem has not yet been announced, it is now confirmed. Its songwriter, Wang Xuan, is now very famous in the Ministry of Culture.

The head of the Ministry of Culture has specifically told his agencies that if Wang Xuan is involved, they must attach great importance to it and give Wang Xuan the green light as much as possible without violating the principles.

The Radio, Film and Television Bureau, as an agency under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Culture, saw that Tianhai had sent a TV series script for filing, and saw Wang Xuan's name in the column for screenwriters. The Radio, Film and Television Bureau of the Magic City did not dare to neglect it, so it started cross-examination on the same day, 5

The review will be completed in about days.

When he learned that the TV series registration had been approved, Wang Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he guessed the reason. It was probably because of his golden body. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a TV series to be filed without a 15 to 20-day review.

After the registration is approved, the next step is for the crew to prepare.

Of course, if it is an ordinary film production company, it may have to invest some money. But Tianhai does not need it. This is a small-cost TV series. The shooting cost is only tens of millions. Wang Xuan can get this money himself, and

He also knew that this TV series was definitely going to be a big hit, so how could it be possible for outside investors to step in and get a piece of the pie?

The crew preparation is a meticulous and complicated process. As a director, Wang Xuan needs to consider many issues, such as the language of the shots, determining the lighting, scenery, and even props.

But these are also the simplest ones for Wang Xuan. What lens language, lighting and scenery, and props are needed for "Together" have already been in Wang Xuan's mind.

Damn it, he is so invincible.

The only thing Wang Xuan needs to consider is the staffing of the crew, including photographers, set designers, lighting designers, makeup artists, costume designers, and art directors. These are all things that need to be considered.

After the TV series "Welcome to Schools Together" was approved, Tianhai and other crew members were all ready to join the cast of "Welcome to Schools Together".

But Wang Xuan can't ask for so many people.

For the sake of fairness, Wang Xuan specially formulated a question to investigate the relevant personnel.

For example, when inspecting the lighting technicians, Wang Xuan would take a certain fragment from the script of "Welcome to the Window Together" and tell the lighting engineers what kind of lighting effects he wanted, and let them use their imagination. The three with the highest degree of completion

A lighting engineer can join the crew of "Crossing the Window Together".

Similarly, when inspecting the set designers, Wang Xuan also took a certain fragment from the script of "Going to School Together" and told the set designers what effect he wanted to achieve, allowing them to use their imagination to achieve the highest degree of completeness.

Three set designers remained.

When inspecting the photography, Wang Xuan directly took the photographers out to the main shooting location to take the scenery, and shot a certain segment in the script in separate shots. The three photographers who had the best shots stayed behind.

By analogy, it took a few days to finally complete the staffing of the crew of "Born Together".

The only thing missing from the preparation of the crew is casting.

Different from ordinary youth school dramas, "Welcome to School Together" is an ensemble drama. It is said that there are only three protagonists, but there are nine main actors. Each character has a distinct personality. These nine actors need

Sufficient acting skills, otherwise the audience will be entertained every minute.

To this end, Tianhai held a special press conference to announce the preparations for the filming of "Welcome to the School Together". The relevant filings have been approved and the casting is now entering the casting stage. Open casting will be held at the Shanghai Academy of Drama and the Yanjing Film Academy.

As soon as this press conference came out, it was like throwing a big stone on a calm lake, causing waves.

"66666, so Wang Xuan really created a youth campus drama?"

Gu Shen

"I thought the pigeon spirit let our pigeons go again."

"I remember that the youth campus drama that Huayi is going to shoot seems to have just finished casting, right? So will the youth campus drama that Wang Xuan is going to shoot have a collision with Huayi?"

"It's possible! I think Wang Xuan went to Huayi."

"How dare he? Huayi has invited several popular stars to star in this school drama. I heard that there is also Oppa. Isn't Wang Xuan afraid that the youth school drama will be slapped by Huayi?"

"Whatever, I just want to watch a good show."

"Yes, it's not a big deal to watch the fun."

"I believe in Wang Xuan anyway. There is no one in this world who can defeat Wang Xuan."

"Wang Xuanyyds, no explanation."

...

"Wang Xuanyyds? Humph!" Cheng Kun snorted coldly.

If compared to composing lyrics and composing, Cheng Kun is really afraid of Wang Xuan's three points. Compared to movies and TV series, Huayi can hang Tianhai up and beat him. In terms of movies and TV dramas, Huayi can hang up Tianhai and beat him when he was at his peak, let alone now.

.

"Wang Xuan, Wang Xuan, there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell and you just go to hell. Then you can't blame me." Cheng Kun sneered.

Huayi accounts for half of the country's theaters. If Tianhai was making movies, it would be uncomfortable for Tianhai as long as Huayi jammed Tianhai's neck in the theaters. The TV series will be slightly better, but not much better.

Huayi also holds more than half of the top ten online video platforms in China. If Tianhai gets stuck in this regard, it will also make Tianhai uncomfortable for a long time.

In terms of TV dramas, the only place where Huayi can’t catch Tianhai’s neck is probably the TV station, and TV stations are the main broadcaster and have the largest audience. But it’s okay. TV series shot by Tianhai can be broadcast on TV stations, and so can Huayi’s.

When the time comes, let the youth school drama shot by Huayi and the youth school drama shot by Tianhai be released on the TV station at the same time, which will be enough for Tianhai to drink a pot. He wants to see how the youth school drama shot by Tianhai compares to Huayi's

Compared with the star-studded youth campus drama.

"Wang Xuanyyds? Haha, see how I will defeat the gods in your hearts when the time comes!"

...

Wang Xuan naturally didn't know that Cheng Kun wanted to beat him up. If he had known, Wang Xuan would have died laughing.

There is no TV series that can beat "The Window Together". In another time and space, "The Sky of 18" can compete with "The Window Together". The others are all younger brothers.

Wang Xuanke has not been idle during this period. He handed the script to Zhu Xu for filing on the 7th, and then asked Li Tao to inform Du Chengfei to go to the recording studio to record a song for the single that Du Chengfei will release next month, and also for

Other songs in the album prepared by Du Chengfei.

As for Zhang Yaxin, she can't take care of both.

After the registration was approved, he was busy preparing the crew. After preparing the crew, he started casting.

On the 20th, the public casting for the TV series "Born Together" began. The first stop will be at the Shanghai Academy of Drama, the second stop will be at the Yanjing Film Academy, and the third stop will be at the Yanjing Conservatory of Music.

In fact, there were only two sites originally planned, but after the press conference, Wang Xuan immediately received a call from Li Rulan.

Li Rulan denounced Wang Xuan on the phone. In Li Rulan's words: "Wang Xuan, don't forget that you are still the official professor of our Yanjing Conservatory of Music. But in the end, Yanjing Conservatory of Music did not have a role in the casting of the TV series. What does that mean? ?You look down on our performance department at Yanjing Conservatory of Music?"

Wang Xuan felt dumbfounded when he heard this, so he had to add Yanjing Conservatory of Music on the casting site.

Having said that, on the 20th, the casting scene set up by Tianhai at the Shanghai Academy of Drama was packed with people, and many people signed up to audition for "Welcome to School Together".

Of course, it is impossible to register on the spot.

In order to save time, after the press conference, Tianhai listed the characteristics of the nine main characters in "Born Together" for the auditionees to choose which role to audition for.

Moreover, not everyone who registers for the audition can pass the registration. Tianhai will screen and only those who meet the conditions can pass the registration and then audition.

The audition process is simple. The auditioner will get a certain line of the character he is auditioning for, and then read it in front of the interviewer to show his skills in this area, and then perform a certain segment of the script for the character he is auditioning for. .

For example, the auditionee for Xiao Haiyang, who had poor grades but was very loyal, was asked to perform a scene in which Xiao Haiyang tearfully wished his ex a happy wedding at the wedding.

This clip has high demands on the auditionees, and it is also the most touching clip among all the scenes of Xiao Haiyang. Especially the audition scene cannot be turned into a wedding scene, and can at most be a simple decoration. And the auditionees are faced with He is not an ex, but a person who was brought in temporarily to play with him. There is no basis for any relationship between the two parties.

This is a bit embarrassing.

But what Wang Xuan wants is to keep improving.

In fact, after passing the audition, if you want to play nine important roles in this drama, you have to sign a contract with Tianhai. The contract you sign is not a filming contract, but an artist contract.

Because "Welcome to School Together" will be filmed for at least three seasons. After three seasons, it will be enough to make these nine people famous. Publish the script and pay for it. If you make others famous, they will go and sign contracts with other entertainment companies. This is a loss. Wang Xuan doesn't want to do anything.

Since he has to sign an artist contract, Wang Xuan naturally wants people with good acting skills, so the scenes he chooses for the auditionees are all famous scenes in each role.

This is true for Xiao Haiyang's clip, the same is true for Ren Yifan's clip, and the same is true for Lin Luoxue's clip.

The auditionees of Ren Yifan and Lin Luoxue actually auditioned at the same time. They acted directly together and performed "the scene of the duel between the two Aqua Kings, Ren Yifan in his prime and Lin Luoxue in his charming life."

This is definitely a famous scene among famous scenes. Fortunately, the casting site has added the Yanjing Conservatory of Music. The other eight roles have been finalized at the Shanghai Theater Academy and the Yanjing Film Academy, but the actor who plays Lin Luoxue was not until The casting scene for Yanjing Conservatory of Music has just been finalized.

In fact, among the nine characters, Lin Luoxue actually has the highest requirements. Because this character is really complicated. She looks like a bitch at the beginning, like green tea, but later on she makes countless people feel heartbroken. She is also the most popular character. A welcome role.
