Chapter 590: Change director?(1/2)

On the other hand, it is easy for family films to last long, but it is not so easy to switch to a TV series like theirs.

After all, you are adapting a famous work, and this is a real famous work that everyone is familiar with.

If you add too many useless plots that cannot be dealt with, you will only seek to scold yourself and will not do any good.

Besides, everyone is already a seasoned actor, so the actors naturally don't care. Anyway, they just get paid for filming. Once the filming is finished and all the money is paid, they don't care about the subsequent work.

However, the director is different.

The quality of a TV series actually has the greatest impact on the director. It is impossible for an actor to not get the next movie just because one TV series failed.

But as for directors, often if a film is ruined, they will be unable to turn around for a long time, and no investors will trust them anymore.

This is a very real problem. Others will think that you are losing money, and investing in you is equivalent to wasting money.

Therefore, as a director, you must be cautious when taking on new films.

And a TV series that originally could be completed in fifty or sixty episodes has to be stretched to one hundred episodes. Not only is the filming of such a huge TV series a problem, but the sales after filming is even more problematic.

You see, you are different from those feature-length family films, which tend to have modern themes and the scenes are basically just a few houses and one or two parks.

The shooting expenses are quite economical, and correspondingly, the purchase price of the films is not very high.

It is most suitable for a TV station to buy it and use it to fill in files.

However, the same thing will not happen to this TV series. Don't forget, you are going to be a high-quality drama.

It is still a period film, whether it is the setting, the space occupied, or even the costumes and props, the investment is huge.

Now, the length of the TV series will be doubled again, and it is conceivable that the cost will also be doubled, or even more.

However, extending the length of the TV series was something that the investor personally agreed to, or even called upon himself, so does the director still need to worry?

Of course it is.

Because, although investors can clamor like this, a very practical problem is that they will never make a loss-making transaction.

Doubling the length of the TV series actually means that he at least hopes that the TV series can sell for more than double the price!

Yes, this is all business.

Who told TV stations to bid based on the number of episodes of TV series now?

Everyone just goes with the flow and has no choice.

You can only collect more water and collect more water.

In fact, this kind of thing happened often before, but in different fields.

I think back then, when newspaper serialization was still very popular, those writers who relied on serialization to make a living often tried their best to write as many words as they could in a small space.

From this, many jokes are derived. For example, some people strengthen the psychological description of the scenery and insert many such plots into the main plot in order to increase the number of words and save more effort.

This is still a very conscientious method of counting words.

There are also some writers who are even more amazing. They create their own matrix-type water word count method. In the limited serialization space, they work hard to create a graphic sense.

The placement of some weapons, and even the location of secret passages in mechanisms, are also expressed using words arranged in a graphic style.

It's really eye-opening.

What makes my otherwise well-behaved writer friends start to think wrongly?

This is all forced by life!

Who told the magazine to pay manuscript fees based on the number of lines and words of the work?

Doesn’t it mean that you have to improve the number of words so that you can get more? Of course, all the mistakes must be within a certain range, and you can’t lose a lot for a small amount.

Therefore, for this TV series, the difficulties are obvious.

Although the investor's plan is very good and he is determined and sincere, at least he can unilaterally guarantee that the investment is in place.

However, can his hopes of obtaining a higher selling price by extending the number of episodes of the TV series really be realized?

Is there really such a person who takes over?

There really needs to be a question mark here.

After all, the price of this TV series is obviously not low, and judging from current estimates, the price should be very expensive.

So, will the TV station be too full to buy such an expensive TV series? Although it is a famous work, although it is a masterpiece, it has to be said that its ratings are not guaranteed.

It is really a question of which TV station is brave enough to do such a risky thing.

too expensive!

The risk is too great!

It would be okay if it were cheaper, but the reality is that everyone is waiting to make money, so how can it be cheaper?

So, after much thought, Jianbing’s old friend decided to quit the project and shoot a documentary instead.

I heard that the project has been found and we are just waiting for the director to have time to officially start filming.

Documentaries are still a good choice.

Although it is difficult to show artistry, and it cannot gain big fame and fame for the director, it is difficult to make mistakes when shooting a film of this kind. It can be regarded as a choice to fill in the file after losing a big project.

There is nothing we can do, we can't let the reputation we finally built up be ruined.

However, there are many things that you don’t care about that people are looking for.

Take this TV series for example. Ever since the news spread that the director was leaving, although the director has not officially left yet, at least the current project brochure still lists him as the chief director, and his name is listed there.

However, various competitions have quietly begun.

Even the director's good friend Jianbing has heard some rumors.

There is no way, who can make the directors on both sides be his good friends? They are all acquaintances, so they are naturally well-informed.

"So, what I mean is that Director Gu is also interested in competing for the chief director?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Pancake nodded: "That's true."

"That's why I remind you that Director Gu has experience in directing this type of TV series before. If she takes action, the possibility of success is still very high."

"So, if you want to continue filming this TV series in the future, it's best to have a good relationship with Director Gu and make amends."

Jianbing said this in a low voice, and his eyes were particularly deep, but Wu Di could taste something from his words.

"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely take the picture well. This is the part I can take responsibility for. As for Director Gu, you don't have to worry. Director Gu is in the capital now, and I can't spare the time. I can't get there. Wait until

When I returned to the capital, I went to her to apologize as soon as possible."

"There's no need to be in such a hurry, just think about it. After all, one more friend opens up a new path."

Jianbing talks about human nature. In fact, his proposal is also based on this argument. Between Wu Di and Gu Dao, Jianbing still sympathizes more with Gu Dao.

Director Gu is very capable, and Jianbing can prove this.

After so many years, she held her breath and wanted to make a beautiful comeback and avenge herself. However, the current ending can be said to have not only failed to meet her expectations at all, but also dragged down her reputation even more.

.

Gu Mei's depression and irritability are conceivable and understandable.

As a friend, Jianbing had enlightened her several times and offered good advice, but it was of little use.

At this time, Jianbing thought of Wu Di.

This young man has always maintained a low posture and a gentle figure. Gu Mei has some control over him.

Judging from past confrontations, Gu Mei also complained about him. Not only that, as a newcomer, Gu Mei can naturally maintain a senior and high-profile attitude in front of Wu Di, which will make her very satisfied.

It is much more effective than the earnest persuasion from old friends like them.

Now that Wu Di has taken the initiative to take over the job, Jianbing is relieved. Next, regardless of whether Gu Mei can compete for the position of chief director, his status will also improve.

Originally, life is so long, failure is inevitable. If you keep immersed in failure and taste it repeatedly, you will only harm yourself.

So how can we take better pictures?

How can we talk about turning around?

Is it possible that Gu Mei will direct the next TV series?

Back at the hotel, this was the thing that kept echoing in Wu Di's head.

Well, is it too late to run away now?

The thing is, if this TV series has a scale of one hundred episodes, then a newcomer like him really can't bear it.

Too long!

Really, even according to Jianbing’s estimated time, four months is not enough. It will take at least half a year to complete the filming of this movie.

Half a year!

Who can bear this?

Are you accepting any other scripts?

Do you want to do other activities? Even those advertisements and magazines have to be put aside, and there is no time to take care of them.
