Actors start from the college entrance examination

Chapter 117

"Especially for listed companies, the stock market is their biggest ticket warehouse!"

Kong Xue took a sip of coffee and sighed, "Even if Hua Yi makes a few bad films, as long as one of them passes the test every year, the financial report will be beautiful, and it will be easy to harvest a wave of leeks."

"If the Wang Brothers weren't too high-profile, besieged on all sides and made too many enemies, plus internal power struggles, how could they be reduced to where they are today?"

"You can't live by committing sin!"

Su Ze sneered, back then, Boss Wang liked antiques, and he took 120 million yuan to take pictures of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy post, with [-] seven characters in full type?

Every word can buy a Ferrari 488!

"Of course, in the past two years, the higher authorities have started to rectify the industry, so good works can stand out, and tap water word-of-mouth can also make popular niche films."

"So the role of the water army has been greatly weakened, and the audience is not stupid. As long as the level of the work passes the test, the water army will use a little force to detonate the fuse."

"This is also the reason why our studio doesn't raise sailors. When the real work comes out, we spend money to find a reliable company to cooperate with. But I think it's better to raise screenwriters by ourselves. It's not expensive."

"I heard that there is no screenwriting agency?" Su Ze asked, "You can buy scripts specifically."

Kong Xue said disdainfully: "Those are all scammers of the second order, no, even five or six dealers."

"I don't know where to cheat Xiaobai's work, and then blow it up to the sky, and run away when the money is in place. In all likelihood, it is a leather bag company."

Seeing Su Ze frowning, he explained: "Of course there are regular companies, but they are actually personal studios, private workshops established by well-known screenwriters."

"With a few or even a dozen apprentices under his command, they work on an assembly line. They are all well-known screenwriters and shooters. In the end, as long as they have his signature, they can make money easily."

"Anyway, they don't care if the filming is good or bad. If the results hit the street, it can be said that the director was not found well, the actors' acting skills are not good, the camera is rubbish, and the special effects are [-] cents..."

"If you want to add guilt, there is no excuse for it!"

"It's so dark!" Xiaotong couldn't help complaining, "Isn't this just a lie?"

"What's wrong with just lying to you?" Kong Xue sneered, "The entertainment industry is deep, do you think it's fake?"

"How much of the [-] million investment is actually used for filming?"

"500 million, thank God!"

Su Ze was silent. All actors want good scripts, but good scripts are a rare resource.

It's true that the overall level of the screenwriter is not satisfactory, but is this a problem with the screenwriter alone?
Are review factors, capital factors, and market factors all clear?

Hollywood actors, no matter how famous they are, have to audition. If you don't want to audition, you have to fight for it yourself.Jodie Foster got a statuette, and she also took the initiative to contact her when she saw her favorite script.

A good script and a good actor are a relationship of mutual choice and mutual competition, not a relationship of who is attached to whom.

Why do some actors always find good books?
Because people are willing to lower the price for a good movie, this is called artistic pursuit.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that actors should starve to death and generate electricity for love, but it is undeniable that when a film is produced, the actors and directors share most of the cost, and other aspects such as special effects, plots, scenes...

It's that simple!
Take "The Wandering Earth" as an example. In all fairness, the script is not top-notch, but it is a very, very standard commercial sci-fi movie with standard rhythm, special effects, and plot.

Although there is still a gap with international major productions, it is definitely worthy of the domestic audience's hunger for science fiction.

However, does the director dare to invite "actors of this level"?

Even Wu Jing, the billionaire actor, has to pay tens of millions out of his own pocket to post special effects scenes. Can actors of that level do it?

Money is earned by actors; fame is earned by directors; pot?
Throw it all to other screenwriters?

With a salary of tens of millions, the screenwriter who complains about tens of thousands or even thousands of royalties can't write good things?

You will not die!

"The screenwriter's status is too humble. From investors to producers, directors, actors, small crews, and even camera lighting props can dictate to the screenwriter."

"Big-name actors are dissatisfied with filming, frowning and saying that they change their lines as soon as they change their lines. Is there such a thing as rare?"

Kong Xue said sarcastically: "For example, a certain director Chen, as long as he participates in the screenwriting of the movie, nine times out of ten there will be ridiculous plots, and Lu Wei has even complained about it."

"On the contrary, as long as he doesn't intervene in the screenwriting, every movie is good. It's not that the script cannot be changed, at least you should ask the screenwriter what it means?"

After complaining, I asked Su Ze: "So I suggest that the studio hire two or three professional screenwriters. Even if they can't write a good script, they should at least provide professional opinions, right?"

Su Ze nodded, this is very important.

"Aze, in Midsummer Future, you have also seen the real operating environment of the crew. What are your specific thoughts on future roles?"

Seeing Kong Xue's serious face, Su Ze pondered: "I like characters with complicated hearts. It doesn't matter if they are upright or villainous. The details should be richer."

"Is there any more?" Kong Xue took out a pen and paper and wrote it down carefully.

"Suspense is best if the theme is suspenseful. Personally, I prefer interlocking plots. For example, Qin Hao's roles in the past two years have been good."

The corners of Kong Xue's mouth twitched, as expected of a young master, she really has vision!
"No rush, slow work and meticulous work." Su Ze knew that the requirements were not low. Misty Theater was a gold medal production of iQiyi, and the script was adapted from Zijin Chen Yang's famous work.

"Well, as long as you have an idea." Kong Xue comforted: "You are still young, let's work hard together, and God will reward those who work hard."

Putting away the pen and paper, he said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, professional screenwriters are worthless, and people who grab [-] yuan a month do it."

"So cheap?" Su Ze said in surprise, "Eight thousand?"

"That's pretty high. There are [-] people working in a small company." Kong Xue said, "The actors and actresses have a pyramid structure. Those who are drought die, and those who are flooded die. A full man doesn't know if a hungry man is hungry."

"By the way, you Chinese opera also has specially trained screenwriters. If you meet a good one, you can pull them over."

Su Ze nodded. Chinese opera is indeed a treasure, and he will dig more in the future.

"After the new year, first recruit two or three screenwriters with work experience, and then let them find suitable scripts from the market according to your requirements. If you really find a good one and the price is right, buy it first."

"The big deal is to adapt it slowly, we are all our own people, how about taking your opinion as the main?"

Su Ze smiled, what's not satisfied with tailor-made?
Kong Xue also laughed, as long as the young master is satisfied, a project first has a script, and then any director, actor, camera is easy to talk about, and money can handle it.The big deal is to be a producer by myself, and it's not like I haven't done it before.

It is necessary to help Su Ze create a mature work within two years. Now that the Internet platform is also very popular, it does not have to be a satellite TV. Of course, the Su family is also a big boss in an acre of land in their hometown. It is not difficult to support their precious son on the local satellite TV. Bar?

As long as there are mature works, it will be a stepping stone in the future, and it is tough to rely on relationships to run resources.The starting point of top students in Chinese opera is not low, and with the addition of works, five years of struggle will be saved.
