In the beginning, I just wanted to make money

How much money can you make from a copywriter?

Shen Xudong thought for a while and told the truth: "My copywriting is for "Screening Room". We signed a one-year cooperation agreement with Phoenix TV, and the one-phase income is 50,000 yuan..."

"Is it "Phoenix Screening Room"?"

"right!"

"You write the copy for every issue?"

"Well, I'm responsible for topic selection and copywriting planning..."

The waiter served the food, and the two chatted while eating. Chen Xi asked the main question, and Shen Xudong answered.

"So, you have earned close to 3 million in half a year?"

"Not that much..."The World's No. 1" account only gave 500,000 in the early stage..."

"It's amazing. I earned a house in BJ in half a year!"

"I'm also lucky..." Shen Xudong waved his hand and changed the subject: "Actually, you actors are more ruthless in making money... I heard that you have already starred in "Out of the Blue Water River", or is it a collaboration with Siqin Gaowa?"

Chen Xi nodded: "This was taken during my sophomore year..."

"Out of the Blue Water River" is co-directed by Chen Jialin and Ping Jiang Suojin. They are both famous directors. Chen Jialin's masterpiece is "Kangxi Dynasty", and Pingjiang Suojin... unearthed Liu Shishi...

Not only that, "Out of the Blue Water River" is also the work "The Swordsman and the Woman" by the famous writer Zhao Benfu...

Zhao Benfu's masterpiece is "A World Without Thieves"!

However, "Out of the Blue Water River" has never been broadcast on stars...

There are too many dramas in a small family house in a feudal mansion!

"Thunderstorm", "Mansion Gate", "Oranges Are Red", "April in the World", "Time flies"...

Too much.

Shen Xudong was about to say, "Actors' pay is about to skyrocket," when Chen Xi suddenly said, "I'm not going to develop as an actor anymore!"

"Ah? Why?"

"The profession of actor is glamorous in front of the screen, but behind the scenes it is often controlled by those who control the rules of the game... I previously filmed a movie called "Derailment". When I joined the cast, an investor always came to me, They also gave gifts, considering that we were not familiar with each other, so we didn’t pay much attention to each other and declined all the gifts..."

"Then what?"

Chen Xi smiled bitterly and said: "As a result, the role originally signed was replaced, from the protagonist to a supporting role..."

Shen Xudong understood instantly: "I wanted to applaud you, but you slapped him!"

"applaud?"

"Pa bang bang..."

Shen Xudong demonstrated applause. Chen Xi understood and couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "...You're quite..."

"Tell me your story!"

"I finally understand. People like me who have no background see the role they like trying hard to win, but are easily snatched away by actors with resources. When they see the unreasonableness of the plot, they don't dare to complain to the screenwriter and screenwriter. The director brought it up; even if a sentence comes out as nonsense, I still have to bite the bullet and read it out... It’s so frustrating!”

"Actually, it's normal. There are so many actresses, who can't be used? You are not indispensable!"

Chen Xi nodded: "Indeed, in terms of appearance, I can only consider it to be acceptable; in terms of acting skills, I can only consider it to be passable..."

"If you like acting, you can go to the theater..."

"How can a theater be so easy to enter?"

"If you can't get into the Human Arts or Experimental Theater, you can go back to your hometown. There should be a drama theater in your hometown..."

"Then why did I pass the drama test?"

Drama itself is a small circle, and local drama theaters are the fringe of the small circle...

If she really returns to the local theater, she will basically have nothing to do with the entertainment industry for the rest of her life...

Shen Xudong still didn't understand: "Then what are you going to do?"

"make money!"

"...It's a little difficult, you don't have any connections..."

The film and television industry is actually a circle of people, so when you hang around, it’s still the same few people...

"But I can see business opportunities... Do you know about ringing bells?"

"…Know."

"I'm going to buy the copyright of some songs and make them into ring tones... You know ring tones, right? If the ring tones you download or the songs you order happen to match the songs I bought, I can share the royalties with China Mobile."

Shen Xudong was speechless: "...it can't be that easy..."

That's nonsense, why should they sell it to you?

"I have bought more than 50 songs, spending almost 90,000 yuan, and I have made nearly 500,000 yuan in half a year!"

"…real?"

"certainly!"

Shen Xudong was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "...What do you do at home?"

"It's business...I admit that I used some family connections to buy the copyrights of these songs...but I did these all independently!"

"…All right."

Chen Xi looked at Shen Xudong: "When will "The Best in the World" be filmed?"

"...It's estimated to be August...What? Are you acting like a character?"

"I would rather join the group..."

"Follow the group?"

"Yes, I want to be a producer!"

"Ahem... Producer of "The Best in the World"? Sister, I'm just the screenwriter..."

"I know, I mean I want to be a producer in the future, and I want to join the crew of "The Best in the World" to learn!"

Just learn...

Shen Xudong nodded: "...Okay, I'll talk to Producer Zhuang about it."

"Just say it?"

"Help me... and it's recommended by me as the screenwriter... I think Producer Zhuang won't refuse..."

…

After eating, the two of them went back to their dormitories...

Shen Xudong thinks Chen Xi is quite good, he is a smart person, and he can see through the nature of the circle at a glance!

There are countless young men and women who want to enter the entertainment industry like crucian carp crossing the river!

Only a few are famous...

It is basically impossible to expect good things to happen to you automatically...

But you can indeed make money in this business!

There is no need to be an actor, you can live a very relaxed life working behind the scenes.

But at the same time, Shen Xudong also had doubts. Chen Xi had a background and a brain. Logically speaking, he should be very famous in future generations. Why...haven't he heard of this person?

Could it be... that he has withdrawn from the circle?

Or changed the name?

…

The program "Analysis of Masterpieces" is mainly followed by Gao Fenfen. According to Shen Xudong, he went to Xiamen University to find Yi Zhongtian, and then invited him to record the program...

After recording one episode, I immediately decided to sign the contract!

She is very sensitive and knows that this thing will definitely cause trouble.

Because Yi Zhongtian praised Cao Cao...

Moreover, he compared "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "The Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", and a large part of it was literacy. The second is to talk about some deeds in the Three Kingdoms.

The issue recorded was the first issue of the review "Wei Wu's Whip". It was an established style. It directly stated that the things recorded in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" must be true. For example, Zhuge Liang's empty city plan and the straw boat borrowing arrows were mentioned in Chen Shou's "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". There is no record. Luo Guanzhong adapted the five unknown things about Zhuge Liang from die-hard fans of Zhuge Liang...

The key point is that what he said is reasonable!

But few of us viewers or readers have watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". We all learned about that period of history through "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"...

Gao Fenfen knows very well that once the TV station airs it, there will definitely be controversy!

But being controversial means someone is watching!

BJ TV station was also very decisive and agreed directly. Of course, it was not broadcast on satellite TV, but on the literary channel...
