Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

On March 3rd, the crew of Chess Soul.

"Well, so that's basically it." Cheng Lie said while sitting across from Jing Yu's desk.

"Although many people in the station are upset that Mr. Jing Yu has passed the production plan of two more dramas in the summer file, but our Yunteng speaks for its achievements. You are the screenwriter with the best achievements in film and television dramas in Taiwan. Their opposition is also very weak."

"However, according to Mr. Jing Yu's plan, another is just a six-episode mid-length drama, and the final budget given by Taili is only 9 million. And Steins;Gate, because of Mr. Jing Yu, you and Meng Yu The minister made a phone call, expressing your optimism for the work Steins;Gate, and the station has considered it, and finally approved a budget of 21 million. Of course, the remuneration of these two dramas is still signed with Mr. Jing Yu before. It’s the same as stated in the contract, except that the station has changed the lower limit of the ratings of the two dramas, and only requires it to be above 1.6%.”

"Do you understand 1.6%?" Jing Yu said after thinking about it.

"Producer Cheng, thank Minister Meng for me. It's impossible for these two works to have such low ratings."

Although Cheng Lie said it lightly, Jing Yu could understand it with his ass. A small pond like Jinhui has a lot of factional struggles. How could Yunteng not have one?

It's just that Cheng Lie and Meng Yu just want to create a good story for themselves, don't get involved in these struggles, so they just skip it and don't tell themselves.

The filming of the second season of the Soul of Chess required an investment of more than 50 million yuan, and another and Meng Yu of Destiny Stones Gate gave him 30 million yuan for the filming of two dramas.

Although Yunteng is not a small TV station, for a screenwriter like myself who has joined Yunteng for only three or four months, this kind of trust is really exceptional. Give a little more budget. The investment on a screenwriter in a quarter is Breaking through 100 million will definitely arouse dissatisfaction among other factions in the station, so Jing Yu doesn't feel that the investment in these two dramas is small.

Anyway, it’s not the kind of drama with big scenes. There are only seven or eight main characters in Steins;Gate, and those scenes are repeated over and over again. The other is most of the scenes are in schools, and the cost of filming and so on is small.

"Then, does Teacher Jing Yu have any suggestions for the casting of the two dramas?" Cheng Lie asked.

"Well, I also said in the conversation with the previous producer that I want to attract the popularity of the two dramas to a certain extent. I asked Wu He and Li He, and they are also willing to participate in low-paying doubles However, in order not to affect the progress of the filming of Qihun, they can only be allowed to work part-time in one drama. As for the protagonist of the second disease in Steins;Gate, I will personally participate in it! My left is the actor Drain the popularity of Steins;Gate, and then Yu Liang and Jing Guang play the role of Drain the popularity of the stand-in drama." Jing Yu said.

"But the other characters in the play probably still have to spend time holding an audition meeting audition."

Cheng Lie nodded, but in order to avoid Jing Yu's misunderstanding later, he still reminded Jing Yu one more time. .

"Anyway, Mr. Jing Yu, if you think there are any suitable actors for the role, please let me know. As long as the actor's basic quality passes the test and there are no bad scandals, I will definitely have a red light here. If Mr. Jing Yu has not If I find a suitable actor, or Mr. Jing Yu is afraid of trouble, then I will send out a draft in Shanghai in a few days, and invite actors from performing arts firms that I am familiar with and suitable to audition for."

"The actors I know are all in Lanzhou, but I'm a noob in Shanghai." Jing Yu understood what Cheng Lie was talking about.

These actors are very sought-after in many crews.

Outside the film and television base in Shanghai, there will be hundreds of handsome men and women who graduated from major film and television majors wandering around someday, just waiting to be chosen by a great screenwriter or producer to become the protagonist in a popular drama. Basic and scene Yu Qian's previous life Hengdian was of a nature.

When it comes to casting, most crews have the final say on the part of the screenwriter. Anyway, the screenwriter is the one responsible for the crew's poor performance, so they naturally have great power over these important matters.

What Cheng Lie said is just to remind Jing Yu that this is his hidden right. If Jing Yu doesn't want to rely on this thing to develop personal connections in the film and television drama industry in Shanghai, then it doesn't matter if Cheng Lie does it for him. The qualifications to participate in more than a dozen leading and supporting roles means that Cheng Lie has more than a dozen more connections.

But Jing Yu remembered something while talking.

Seeing that Jing Yu was lost in thought, Cheng Lie left Jing Yu's office without bothering him.

Jing Yu thought for a while, then took out his cell phone.

A phone call was made.

"Hello? Teacher Jing Yu" A pleasantly surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Why did you remember to call me?"

"That... you are now, where are you!" Jing Yu hasn't contacted her for several months, and he is still not used to it.

"Well, I'm in Shanghai."

"Ugh, you really came to the Devil's City!" Jing Yu asked, actually feeling embarrassed.

When I was in Lancheng, I had a good relationship with others, but after I left Lancheng, I had no contact for a few months.

However, Jing Yu is a person with this kind of personality. He usually doesn't go to chat with friends just because he has nothing to do. However, for him, people who he considers friends won't fade away in his heart just because they don't contact each other for a long time.

"Yeah, I'm very sad. I've been in Shanghai for two months, and I still think about when you will suddenly think of me, Mr. Jing Yu, and then call me to go out for dinner or something, but it wasn't until today I finally waited until you thought of me." On the other end of the phone, Yu Youqing paused, then said with a smile.

"Um, you can call me! Me."

Jing Yu just wanted to say that he didn't know when Yu Youqing came to Shanghai.

But after thinking about it, she told me that she was coming to Shanghai when she was in Lancheng, so it's too much for me to say that now.

"You are a very busy person. You are filming and participating in the Go exchange meeting. I am not afraid that if I call you when you are busy, you will think I am annoying, or you will cause some misunderstandings by mistake!" Yu Youqing paused and smiled lightly. Said.

Misunderstanding

Jing Yu thought for a while

I see what she means.

With Jing Yu's current fame and status, Yu Youqing was afraid of calling him hastily, and Jing Yu would suspect that she was seeking other interests, for example, to play the female lead in Jing Yu's script again. He was afraid that Jing Yu would misunderstand her this matter.

"You are completely opposite to Xia Yining! She wouldn't think so much." Jing Yu sighed.

"Why did Xia Yining mention her suddenly?" Yu Youqing's tone on the phone was tense.

"As soon as she came to Shanghai, she sent me a text message, saying that she had no place to live in Shanghai, and that she was unfamiliar with the place, and asked if I could come to my house for a few months, but I refused."

Jing Yu remembered Xia Yining's joking text message that she received last month.

But at that time, he was busy filming the TV series and participating in the Go exchange meeting, so Jing Yu didn't have time to joke with her.

"There is such a thing? How dare she bring up such a thing. Even if it's a joke, it's too much. Didn't Xia Yining tell me that she went to the imperial capital to develop?" Yu Youqing's tone became anxious.

"Really? That's what she said to you? Don't you have a good relationship? Why did she keep it from you when she came to Shanghai!" Jing Yu had a weird expression.

But Jing Yu didn't bother to think about the tricks between the two, since it had nothing to do with him anyway!

"Okay, without further ado, let me ask you, have you found a new crew in Shanghai recently!" Jing Yu cut to the point.

On the other end of the phone, Yu Youqing sighed softly when he heard the words.

She didn't know whether she should be happy or unhappy about the reason why Jing Yu called her, and at this moment she also thought clearly.

As an actor, it must be a very successful thing to be remembered by a great screenwriter like Jing Yu. It proves that his acting skills and ability have been recognized by Jing Yu, and he will talk about whether he is in a few sentences. There are filming contracts with other crews.

But as a woman, Jing Yu can only think of herself when she is filming.

Yu Youqing felt like a failure!

"No!" Yu Youqing thought in his heart, but he answered very quickly.

"Do you have time to come out and have a cup of tea?"
