Superstars start as rookie trainees

Chapter 170 The God of War and Chen Hang Co-starred in the Divine Drama
"I think you're better at acting."

Zheng Hong said to Chen Hang seriously.

"If you kill me, you won't act."

Chen Hang was very firm, if he said he would not act, he would not act.

"We invested in this drama, even if, as you said, the plot conflicts of this drama are well done, it is a very cool drama.

But, if you think about it this way, the male number one you are looking for, Xu Wei, played in several dramas before going to sing, and he is a professional in bad dramas.

Other roles are also cast by lesser-known actors, and there is no leading role in this drama.

When it was shot and sold to a TV station, with such a shabby lineup, could it be sold for a good price? "

Zheng Hong carefully analyzed the situation for Chen Hang.

After hearing this, Chen Hang fell silent, and held his chin to think about it.

What Zheng Hong said was not unreasonable.

Why do those capital and directors like to spend a lot of money to hire traffic stars?Because they are famous, popular, have traffic, and are popular.

With a few traffic stars, no matter how bad the show is, it can still be sold at a good price when it is sold.

Regardless of whether his performance was good or bad after it aired, anyway, the producer made money back when he sold it.

This is the reason why the director of Miss Cutout, Miss Number and other traffic actors knows that their acting skills are poor, and spend tens of millions of dollars to find them to act.

Chen Hang said that the seductive actors who came home tried to find less famous actors with certain acting skills. There is not a single popular and famous actor in the whole play, so they cannot be sold at a high price.

This is also a problem.

Maybe the price will be lowered at that time, and the cost of selling will not be recovered.

When it airs, the show becomes popular, and the benefits are the TV station and the actors, and it has nothing to do with Chen Hang and his studio.

This will not work!

"You're right. You have to take this into consideration. There are no actors who can play the leading role, and it's easy to be lowered by others."

Chen Hang also felt that this matter was a bit difficult to handle.

You can't let him go up to play Hong Shixian who is sober in the world, can you?

If Chen Hang acts, this drama will definitely sell for a good price, at least it will not be a problem to recover the cost. The results of Chen Hang's first two dramas are there, and so is the popularity.

But Chen Hang didn't want to be in it by himself. This drama is too bloody, and the protagonist is a scumbag. He is easy to be hated and will become a dark history.

"You can put on a name, play a role that has a little bit of a role, and put your name at the front of the cast.

Before the show airs, if you do a good job of keeping it secret, everyone will think that you starred in this show.

Before it is broadcast, your name can generate a lot of popularity, and the higher the popularity, the higher the selling price.

After the broadcast starts, everyone finds out that the protagonist is not you, so it doesn't matter.You didn't advertise yourself as the protagonist, but they imagined you to be the protagonist. Can you blame you?

As long as the quality of the drama is high, they will continue to watch it if they find that they have been cheated. "

Zheng Hong is worthy of being an old man, it's really hurtful, and he gave Chen Hang such an idea.

Chen Hang remembered that Wang Jing used similar tricks to trick Andy Lau when she was filming Chasing the Dragon.

Pay others for guest appearances, and finally cut them into protagonists, and sell them for money by showing them in the name of starring roles.

The only difference is that Wang Jing lied to Andy Lau, while Zheng Hong lied to the audience.

Speaking of it, Wang Jing is even less authentic. He has really deceived and cheated others.

Zheng Hong's method seems to be cheating, but it makes sense to say it's not.

She took advantage of the audience's psychology and inertial thinking.

Put Chen Hang's name at the front of the cast list. According to the convention that the main characters are listed first, the audience will naturally think that Chen Hang is the leading actor.

But Chen Hangke never said that he was the leading actor, he just said that he participated in the show, and everything was imagined by the audience.

So it seems to be a lie, but it doesn't seem to be a lie.

Anyway, Zheng Hong's idea is really good.

This method is nothing more than using Chen Hang's name to increase popularity, attract attention, and sell it at a good price.

As long as the quality of the drama is high, the audience will still enjoy watching it if they find that Chen Hang is not the protagonist.

"Just do as you say."

Chen Hang nodded in agreement with Zheng Hong's idea.

……

A few days later, Xu Wei replied to Chen Hang. After discussing with his agent, he decided to play the role of Hong Shixian.

Xu Wei is an actor, and acting is his old profession. If there are plays to act in, how can he sing?
When Xu Wei's agent heard the news, he immediately persuaded Xu Wei to accept the film without even thinking about it.

Xu Wei is a guy who has been in the TV circle for several times, but later people don't even let him act as the second male lead.This time, a male number one came directly, what do you think?why do not you answer?
What's wrong with the scumbag making it unpleasant?For a person like Xu Wei who has no filming, he is already number one, so what bicycle do he need?
Xu Wei has no right to be picky at all, and giving him the number one male is giving him great face.

Considering a role will have a negative impact on the actor himself, and that is something only actors who are popular need to consider.

For a big guy like Xu Wei who hits the street, it would be nice to have a scene to shoot.

Xu Wei thought so too.

But he was more thoughtful than the agent.

He took the role of Hong Shixian in this play because he wanted to get rid of his title of the king of dog licking.

How ugly to lick a dog!Even a scumbag is better than licking a dog!
After the temptation to go home is broadcast, Xu Wei's dream will come true.

At that time, he will find that netizens will no longer call him the king of dog licking, the god of war under the car, and the master of car repair.

At that time, netizens would only say to him, "You are so coquettish!"

"Hey! Chen Hang, I read the script and I think it's pretty good. I'll play the role of Hong Shixian."

In fact, Xu Wei can't tell if the script is good or bad. He and his agent have a poor vision for picking dramas, otherwise they wouldn't have picked out a few bad dramas to achieve several successes.

He couldn't tell Chen Hang that he decided to act in order to get rid of the title of God of War under the car, right?So at the beginning, he still said that he only accepted the script because the script was good, and it seemed that he attached great importance to this drama.

Chen Hang nodded appreciatively.good taste!It turned out that the script was good.

From a commercial point of view, the script is really good, and it is a good drama that can make money.

"Okay, I understand. For specific cooperation matters, please contact Zheng Hong, the person in charge of my studio, to discuss in detail."

Chen Hang's tone was very calm, and he said lightly.

Things like bargaining have to be left to Zheng Hong, she has experience.

Chen Hang believed that she would be able to keep Xu Wei's salary very low.

Don't think that Chen Hang is a black-hearted businessman.

In fact, this is a win-win thing.

As a person with God's perspective, Chen Hang knows the temptation to go home. This drama will be popular, and several leading actors will also benefit from it.

Chen Hang lowered the salary to save production costs, but also to spend more money wisely.

Xu Wei became popular with this drama, although the characters are not pleasing, but the popularity is certain, and the popularity means that the salary will increase, and there will be no shortage of filming in the future.

This is something that benefits both parties.

In addition to Xu Wei's agreement to play, Lin Pinru and other main roles such as Ai Li and Zheng Hong have also been settled.

They are all third-line artists drawn from Huanyin, about 30 years old, with a good image, but they are not popular, have certain acting skills, and their salary is not high.

In addition to getting the actors, the director Zheng Hong also got it done.

Lin Mao, the director of Little Love in the Metropolis, was invited to the studio.

After a few polite words, Lin Mao highly praised the script: "Chen Hang, you wrote this script? You are really talented! It would be a pity not to become a screenwriter."

Looking at this script, Lin Mao felt like seeing each other late.

He has this feeling not because he doesn't know what to do, but because he is an insider, he sees the way.

A woman was bullied by her mother-in-law, betrayed by her husband and good friends, lost her family and the child in her womb, and then slowly changed sharply, taking revenge step by step.

This is a cool drama with a great market.

What?brainless?unrealistic?Dog blood?Ridiculous?
Lin Mao didn't care at all.

He is very aware of his limitations. He does not have such a high standard to shoot high-depth film and television dramas, so he is walking on the road of commercialization.

Commercialization is about making money!

As long as he can make money, Lin Mao's morality can be ignored.

The love story of the hero and heroine in Little Love in the Big City is not to be missed. If it weren't for Chen Hang's story line and acting skills, the score of this drama would have dropped below five.

Knowing that the score would not be good, didn't Lin Mao still shoot it?Make money!Not shabby!
Therefore, in Lin Mao's eyes, the script of the temptation to go home is simply a script of a divine drama, with the potential to become popular.

He is naturally willing to direct such a promising drama.

He also needs a drama that can be a hit to establish his status.

He used to shoot commercial dramas, and most of the dramas he filmed could help investors make profits, but they were quite satisfactory, and the best performances were also hits, and there were no dramas that really led to phenomenal hits.

Among TV drama directors, Lin Mao is considered to be a relatively stable director. He will basically not lose money, but he can't make a lot of money either.

Therefore, Lin Mao's own director's salary is not high, and he is not qualified to direct dramas with higher investment, so he can't make it to a higher level.

Seeing the temptation to go home, he saw the hope of breakthrough.

With a good result this time, the investment and actors in the next drama will have to go up to a higher level.

"Director Lin won the award. I just wrote about it casually. Our sister Hong said that the writing is not bad, and I want to shoot it as soon as I pat my thigh."

Chen Hang's words are very Versailles.

Lin Mao wanted to hit someone after hearing Chen Hang's words.

Can you write such a selling point script by just writing?Why don't you go to heaven?
I have been around for so many years and directed more than a dozen plays, but this is the first time I have encountered such a good commercial script.

You tell me you just write casually?
Lin Mao wanted to scold Chen Hang, but when he thought that Chen Hang was the author of The Legend of Condor Heroes and The Legend of The Condor Heroes, he won No.1 and No.2 in the martial arts list, and both of them were adapted into film and television dramas. Depressed.

Chen Hang is qualified to say that.

Even writing a novel can compare to the master of martial arts, Ku Jin. How can it be impossible to write a good script casually?
Isn't this the basic operation of a genius?
A mortal like him doesn't understand the world of geniuses.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Lin Mao cleared his throat, he didn't want to hear Chen Hang's Versailles speech, so he changed the subject.

"Zheng Hong has invited me, and the script is so good, let me direct this drama.

You asked me to make a thought-provoking drama that could win an award. I can't make it. I'm still very good at making this kind of commercial drama. "

In this way, everyone reached a consensus.

Lin Mao joined the crew of The Temptation of Going Home as the director.

Another advantage of Lin Mao coming to direct is that it can save Chen Hang and Zheng Hong a lot of effort.

Lin Mao has directed more than a dozen films and knows many people. He can easily pull together a shooting team, which saves Zheng Hong from running around to find people.

The temptation to go home This drama is 8000% invested by Chen Hang Studio, with an investment of [-] million.

This is a modern drama, which is convenient for attracting advertising investment.Find all kinds of manufacturers, implant their advertisements, and the production funds can reach [-] million.

Thanks to the low salaries of the actors in this show, according to the plan, 3000 million yuan per billion is used to pay the salaries of the director, actors, and staff, and the remaining 7000 million yuan is used as filming funds.

The temptation to go home is soon on the agenda.

Lin Mao invited the main actors to take posters and make-up photos.

Chen Hang is not the main actor, he was also pulled in, and he also took the c position in the poster.

If one looks at the poster, at first glance, anyone would think that Chen Hang is the lead actor of this drama.The reality is that Chen Hang is just a big extra.

However, netizens read the posters and felt that it was enough for Chen Hang to be the leading actor. This is what Chen Hang wanted.

After the posters and actors' makeup photos were taken, news spread that the project was launched.

Chen Hang also uploaded the poster on his Weibo.

"The temptation to go home in the urban emotional drama, co-starred by actors such as Chen Hang, Xu Wei... so stay tuned..."

Chen Hang didn't say co-star, he said co-star.The difference between leading role and acting role is a big difference in meaning.

The leading actor, as the name suggests, is the main actor.Acting is not the same, showing your face is considered acting.

"Where is my The Legend of Condor Heroes? The Legend of Condor Heroes hasn't aired yet, and you're going to start filming another drama?

It's also called the temptation to go home. Why does it sound like a dog blood family ethics drama?You might as well go to shoot The Legend of the Condor Heroes! "

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes is already filming, and Chen Hang has no chance. I also don't understand what Chen Hang is thinking. You can make better dramas, why do you want to play this temptation to go home?"

Chen Hang replied to them: "First of all, The Legend of Condor Heroes is in the post-production stage and cannot be broadcast for the time being, please wait.

I didn't play The Legend of the Condor Heroes because Guo Jing's character design didn't suit me well.Guo Jing is an honest person, but he is stupid and unresponsive. I am so handsome, how can I act!Helpless.jpr. "

"I've never seen such a brazen person. Have you ever boasted so much about yourself?"

"Chen Hang, compared with me, your appearance loses, but your shamelessness wins."

"The temptation to go home, look forward to it. The quality of Ergouzi's drama is still guaranteed."

"Xu Wei is also the lead actor. Isn't this the God of War under the car, the auto mechanic? I've heard that he must love you very much."

"What? The King of Spare Tire is also starring. Chen Hang + King of Spare Tire, I don't know why, but I'm looking forward to it."

Sure enough, the joining of Chen Hang immediately brought popularity to this drama, and many people were discussing this drama.

Seeing such a situation, Chen Hang became more confident in the future of this drama.
