After binding the entertainment system, she made countless top stars

end of September.

After more than half a month of studying hard, Lu Wantang finally passed the screenwriter assessment.

Because she hadn't drawn the directing course yet and wasn't sure about the specific content of the course, she specially exchanged herself for the skill of "Film and Television Appreciation".

【Name: Lu Wantang

Occupation: D-level composer, guitarist, violinist, erhu player

skill:

Music Appreciation·Advanced, Movie Appreciation·Advanced

Guitar·Advanced, Violin·Beginner, Erhu·Advanced

Energy value: -】

Lu Wantang opened his personal information and looked closely at the energy value which had not changed much due to the exchange of skills.

Then there is the inventory of items drawn in the last lottery.

【TV series script (to be launched)】

[Script potential value: A+]

She clicked on the book-like icon on the lower panel.

The script to be started was soon transformed into the name of a TV series: "The Rise of Phoenixes".

After all, Lu Wantang has lived on Earth for many years and has watched all the famous film and television dramas, and this drama is no exception.

Think about Liu Liu’s note again: ‘Starting from a low-budget drama’.

It's not surprising at all that I got the script for this drama.

Because the most famous thing about this drama is 'poverty'.

Specifically, although it is a costume drama, the actors still wear cool clothes, and the most valuable things in the crew are durian and blowers...

But it is precisely because of the 'poverty' that this comedy-style drama seems even more ridiculous and funnier, so much so that it became an overnight hit and also made the leading actor completely famous.

Lu Wantang spent a day reading the script before starting to write the project plan for the TV series.

After finishing two classes in the afternoon, she went straight to the company office and printed out the plan.

'dong dong'

Hearing the knock on the door, Lu Wantang said without even turning his head: "The door is not closed, you can come in directly."

"I just heard from Shen Yan that you came to the company. I have something to tell you, but it's not urgent. If you are busy, I will come later."

As expected, it was Chang Yun.

Lu Wantang sorted out the papers in his hand and said, "Brother Yun, you're here just in time. Come and help me take a look at this. Is there anything else I need to add?"

Chang Yun was curious about what was written on the paper, and walked over in two or three steps.

As soon as he received it, he exclaimed in surprise, "TV series planning?"

Lu Wantang nodded: "I plan to start the project first, and I can find the director and actors later."

Her tone sounded like she was going to the market to buy cabbage.

Chang Yun took a breath and said, "There's no rush. Let me take a look at the plan you wrote first..."

After calming down, he lowered his head to read the contents of the plan.

Chang Yun skipped over the previous topics, market positioning, risk assessment... He read for a while and turned to the end.

"The estimated investment amount is... two million?!"

When Chang Yun heard Lu Wantang say that he wanted to film a TV series, he was just a little surprised.

When he saw the investment amount, his tone of voice changed a little.

Lu Wantang asked knowingly, "What's wrong? Did you invest too much?"

Chang Yun: “…”

Seeing his expression changing, Lu Wantang laughed out loud:

"Brother Yun, don't worry. I'm not stupid. I know it's difficult to make a TV series with this little investment."

In the original world, it was claimed that "The Princess" only had an investment of 90, but it was later revealed that the budget for the early and late stages was million.

Many media outlets said that the 900,000 yuan report was made in order to market the image of "poverty", and the 20 million yuan was revealed in order to whitewash the image of "shoddy workmanship".

The authenticity of the news is still unknown.

But Lu Wantang really couldn't come up with ten million.

If she could really come up with so much money, she wouldn't have to worry about Tangxing Live's short-term profitability and wouldn't have to postpone the planned charity projects again.

She just took a look at the script and roughly calculated the cost, and felt that two million was feasible.

First of all, she doesn't need to buy the copyright for her script, which saves her money.

Secondly, she doesn’t plan to invite big stars. The director will go to the school to find them, and the actors can be 18th-tier actors or those who have just debuted.

Finally, the costumes and settings can be completely based on the original TV series.

The more Lu Wantang thought about it, the more he felt that there was no problem.

Chang Yun on the opposite side thought more and more that this was not possible.

"It's not that hard to film a drama with this little money." He gave a fake smile, "It's simply impossible."

"Look at the hit drama produced by Baihua Media this year. The initial investment was 20 million, and we don't know how much more will be invested in the later stage! You should give up this idea as soon as possible. Our Tangxing is doing well in music, and there is no need to make a fool of ourselves in the film and television field..."

Lu Wantang hesitated: "I think two million is enough..."

"Where is enough?"

Chang Yun asked back, patted the plan and asked, "What type of TV series are you going to shoot?"

Lu Wantang: "Ancient costume palace comedy."

Chang Yun: "Ancient costumes plus the palace, don't you think it won't cost a lot of money? Just the costumes and the scenery, maybe less than a fraction of two hundred!"

After that, he continued to ask: "Then do you have to spend money to hire a director and actors to shoot a movie? Do you also have to pay salaries to extras and staff every day?"

Lu Wantang: "Directors and actors, I can hire the cheapest ones."

Chang Yun: "What about the script? What about the screenwriter? It must cost a lot of money, right?"

For a drama to be good, either the director must be good and the filming must be good, or the screenwriter must be good and the story must be good.

If both are bad, even the actors’ good acting skills can’t save the whole show.

Upon hearing this, Lu Wantang immediately took out the script that he had prepared long ago from the drawer and handed it forward:

"Here, the script is here."

Chang Yun's eyes widened: "This... I thought you were just discussing with me whether to invest in the drama... but you bought the script without saying anything?"

As he spoke, he turned to the first page.

Then I saw the column for screenwriter: Lu Wantang.

Chang Yun slammed the script shut and slapped himself on the forehead.

The action is a bit exaggerated.

Lu Wantang propped his chin up with both hands. "Brother Yun, didn't you say before that you wouldn't be surprised even if I wrote a script someday?"

"I was just saying that." Chang Yun was speechless, "Who knew you could really write!"

Lu Wantang smiled but said nothing.

Chang Yun flipped through the thick stack of papers in his hand, knowing that Lu Wantang would not turn back until he hit the wall.

"That's fine. You've worked hard for a year, and it's just a waste of one or two million..."

When Chang Yun said this, he really wanted to act carefree.

However, expression management still failed.

"Do you really want to take a picture of this?" He shook the thing in his hand again.

"We need to shoot." Lu Wantang said seriously, "Brother Yun just needs to check if there are any problems with the plan and the script. If there are no problems, help me prepare all the documents needed for the filming permit."

The tone was firm and there was no room for negotiation.

"Row."

Chang Yun listened to the response while silently reciting "two million, two million" in his mind.

He walked out of the office in such an absent-minded manner that everyone he met was curious about whether there was any major crisis in the company.
