In front of the mottled gate of Beijing Film Studio, a group of people with dreams gather every day.
They stand or sit, their eyes flashing with the desire and expectation to stand out.
This is the main place for most extras in Yanjing to take roles and wait for roles.
Recently, the name Wang Baoqiang has spread rapidly among the group of extras at the gate of Beijing Film Studio.
This name, like a thunderclap, shocked these extras who are usually unknown.
You know, Wang Baoqiang was once one of them, waiting for an inconspicuous role at the gate of Beijing Film Studio like them.
"Do you still remember Wang Baoqiang? The guy who always took jobs here." A little actor said while chewing the steamed bun in his hand.
"Why don't you remember? He played a dead body with me at that time!" Another little actor took over.
"I never thought that he would become a big star! I heard that the movie he played before the New Year was very popular!" A middle-aged actor with a stubble on his face had a trace of envy in his eyes.
He has been here for more than ten years and is still a supporting actor.
"Alas, he is also a supporting actor, how can he be so lucky?" Someone sighed.
They wait here every day to shoot movies, fantasizing that one day they will be spotted by a big director of the Beijing Film Studio and play a role with lines, even if it is a role with very few scenes.
The supporting actors felt complicated when they heard this person's sigh.
They watched Wang Baoqiang transform from an inconspicuous supporting actor into a rising star in the entertainment industry, and they felt mixed emotions. Envy, jealousy, and hatred.
It was as if a pheasant like them suddenly turned into a phoenix and became the existence they had to look up to.
"I think this is fate!"
"Some people are born to do this job, we still have to keep waiting for work here."
Some extras sighed, their tone full of helplessness.
"You can't say that."
"Maybe one day we can also encounter a good opportunity and become famous overnight!"
Some people still have hope and can't help but refute.
"Come on, don't dream."
"It's better to wait for work here honestly."
Yes, there are so many extras like them here.
The hope of getting ahead is very slim.
After so many years, they have only heard of one person who got ahead. It's not easy to get famous overnight.
......
Morning Star Film and Television Media.
Chen Le sat in the office and called Gangzi over.
Just today, the first box office dividend of "Lost on Journey" was received, a total of 8 million.
In the company, Chen Le called Gangzi to his office.
Chen Le asked him to come so that he could make a web drama.
Gangzi felt that he was too idle before, and he felt uneasy when he had nothing to do.
Now, it just so happened that he didn't have to find it himself, Chen Le had prepared a script for him.
It just so happened that the requirements for his director for web dramas were not high, which was very suitable for him.
And this web drama was the "Never Expected" series that shocked the industry in the previous life.
At that time, this web drama had a five-minute episode, and each episode had more than 30 million views, and a single season had more than 1 billion views. Once it was broadcast, it became popular on the entire network.
The Douban score was as high as 8.3 points, which was a height that many big-budget movies dared not think of.
Since then, web dramas have begun to bloom everywhere.
And now, the concept of web dramas has not yet been formed.
Chen Le must seize the opportunity in advance and shoot "Never Expected".
"Gangzi, take a look at this script." Chen Le handed a script to Gangzi.
Gangzi took the script and looked at Chen Le in confusion: "What is this?"
"This is a web drama I'm going to shoot, called "Never Expected." Chen Le explained.
Gangzi opened the script and began to read it carefully.
However, as he read deeper, his brows furrowed more and more. When he finished the last page, he was completely confused.
"What...what is this?" Gangzi looked at Chen Le with a blank face.
"What's wrong? Do you think this script is not good?" Chen Le looked at Gangzi's expression and asked.
"It's not that it's not good, I don't know how to say it!" Gangzi shook his head immediately.
"If this thing is filmed, will anyone really watch it?"
Seeing this, Chen Le smiled, he knew what Gangzi was thinking now.
After all, in this era, web dramas have not yet formed a concept.
However, Chen Le knew that web dramas will have a huge market in the future.
"Gangzi, do you not believe in my vision?" Chen Le looked at Gangzi and said seriously.
“Although this movie looks a bit weird, its creativity and jokes are very novel.. I believe that as long as it is well filmed, it will definitely be loved by the audience. "
Gangzi looked at Chen Le's firm eyes and was a little shaken.
Because Chen Le's vision is really good, whether it is "Nightclub" or "Lost on Journey", they have achieved a small-scale explosion.
"But... we have never filmed a web drama. This is a new field for us. I am afraid that I will not do it well." Gangzi said worriedly.
It's not that he has no confidence in Chen Le, but he has no confidence in himself.
He is still very clear about how much ability he has in his stomach.
"Yes, it is precisely because we are a new field that we have to seize the opportunity." Chen Le explained.
"The web drama market has not yet formed a scale, and the competition is relatively small. If we can be the first to launch a high-quality web drama, then we can gain a foothold in this field."
"Moreover, the requirements for director skills in web dramas are not very high, and your current level is enough. Otherwise, I will definitely do it myself. Do you think I will do a loss-making business?
So you have to have confidence in yourself. If you don't even have confidence, how can you become a great director in the future? " Chen Le looked at Gangzi and continued to explain.
Gangzi listened to Chen Le's words and felt that there was some truth in them.
He thought about it and nodded: "Okay, Lao Chen, I'll try."
Although he didn't have confidence in himself, he was Chen Le's employee, and the boss had spoken, so he had to go even if he didn't want to.
"Well, if you don't understand, you can ask me and I will guide you. "Chen Le continued.
He asked Gangzi to shoot this web drama, not only to seize the opportunity in the web drama market, but also to train Gangzi.
To train Gangzi to be an independent director specializing in web dramas.
And he can have time to shoot other movies.
After all, he is just one person, without three heads and six arms, and no clones.
How long will it take for him to finish moving all the movies in his previous life?
When Gangzi heard what Chen Le said, he was relieved.
With Chen Le's guidance, he suddenly felt that shooting web dramas was not that difficult.
