Chapter 134 Finalize the type

"Time is urgent!"

Watching Chen Fengxiao board the plane leaving Yanjing, Chu Shi's bright smile instantly dissipated, and replaced by a solemn look.\.\

Three hours ago, Chen Fengxiao agreed and handed over the prime time of Mango TV to Chu Shi, and then the two of them discussed specific matters while having dinner.

Chen Fengxiao has already understood the situation of Mango TV and can give Chu Shi the exact answer without calling to ask.

At present, high-quality TV series that have signed an agreement will continue to be broadcast, and will not affect the ratings of Mango TV in a short period of time - this is the characteristic of the "production and broadcast separation" adopted by China.

A large part of the funds of the programs broadcast by many national TV stations are invested by TV stations. In order to avoid investment failure, a TV series will only shoot two or three episodes of finished products. Whether it will be filmed 10 episodes or 100 episodes in the future depends entirely on the ratings.

If you have high ratings and make money, you will naturally shoot a few more episodes, and vice versa. Although you can better avoid risks, you are easily affected by the market, which will reduce the quality of your works and make it easier to have accidents due to some other factors.

Such as the actor's birth, old age, sickness and death, weather changes, etc.

As for the separation of production and broadcasting in China, TV stations basically do not invest in TV series or variety shows, but choose to hand over the production work to entertainment companies. Most of the buyouts signed are advertising sharing contracts.

Before the official broadcast, the entertainment company had already produced all the series. The higher the ratings after the broadcast, the higher the advertising fee share it received. However, if the performance is not good, the TV station directly cut the work in half, and all the series that have not been broadcasted in the future will be thrown into the hands of the entertainment company.

The risk has not increased, and the risk of interrupting works and dramas due to accidents is avoided. For TV stations, there is no harm. This is also a manifestation of the fact that private individuals cannot host TV stations and store bullying customers. However, in a violent industry like TV series production, even if the entertainment company has huge risks, countless people are rushing in one after another. The strong become stronger, and the weak die without a complete body. Everything is linked to interests.

It is precisely this system that gives Mango TV a not long breathing time and gives Chu Shi such an opportunity.

“Time…”

Open the calendar on your phone. Chu Shi calculated the time in his mind, "After the first month of 2009, the popular prime TV series on Mango TV will be completed, and the next prime time will be vacant..."

According to Chen Fengxiao, although he dare not be completely sure, in the next six months, Mango TV will be in a dilemma of no TV series to broadcast, and it will probably take three high-quality works to fill the gap in the prime time. Chen Fengxiao also gave Chu Shi a lot of freedom.

In the three vacant prime time, Chu Shi deliberately chose any time period to broadcast the TV series he produced. Chu Shi almost did not hesitate to choose the first vacant position on March 8th.

The time gap is not long, but if the first vacancy is arranged for a bad movie, Mango TV's basic ratings have declined, and in the "broadcasting platform", Chu Shi will instantly turn from an original advantage to a disadvantage!

Chen Fengxiao also supports Chu Shi's choice.

Chu Shi occupied the first vacancy and won Chen Fengxiao for half a year. Maybe during this period, he will be able to contact the second and third excellent works!

"In terms of time, there are only more than three months left, and the preliminary preparations are probably two months away. It seems that I will be busy in the next period of time!"

On the way home, Chu Shi ignored the driver's chat, closed his eyes and rested, carefully planning every step in his mind.

In three months, even with God's help, it would not be possible to complete all the work of a TV series from preparation to completion. Fortunately, Chen Fengxiao also understood Chu Shi and believed that he had bet on the future and his own wealth, and he also gave him considerable support.

Chen Fengxiao promised to give Chu Shi the right to "film and broadcast while" that as long as two episodes of TV programs are produced in advance for review and editing, it is also much easier for Chu Shi. After two months of preparation and one month of shooting, it is not difficult to produce and edit two or three episodes. This is also the main reason why Chu Shi chose to take over the prime time of Mango TV on March 8.

"I have more than 60 million in cash on hand, at least in the early stage. When the share of the movie "Where Are We Going, Dad" and "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" is released, even if it is a huge investment, I will not be afraid at all! In terms of the broadcast platform, with Chen Fengxiao's help, there is no need to worry too much. Sun Jiande said he is sick. Today, Mango TV, Chen Fengxiao's words are still effective. Even if someone has a greater say than him, he will never stand out at this time. There are still a few people with such courage!"

"Secondly, the problem of actors and teams is not difficult to achieve with the resources I have at hand. There are even many choices, so there are no need to be anxious. The most important thing now is to determine the type of TV series and script!"

After constantly thinking in my heart, Chu Shi also had a general direction.

"After I determine the type of TV series and script, I can improve the script while looking for actors and production teams. Although time is tight, such things... cannot be rushed!"

It seemed like he was closing his eyes and resting, but Chu Shi was constantly searching for the deepest memories in his mind and searching through countless works he had seen in his previous life.

There are countless excellent works, but 99% of the works cannot be perfectly restored with modern shooting techniques. Even if they are shot, they cannot reach the most perfect state in Chu Shi's heart.

It’s like a 3D movie. Without technology, using some clumsy doll props to pretend to be a good story may attract people to watch. But if you have watched the original version, you are willing to ruin such an excellent work like this?

In a masterpiece "Avatar", the protagonist becomes a little blue man covered with paint. Chu Shi would never do anything to ruin the original work.

As much as possible, I will choose some current techniques and techniques, and TV series that can be shot.

"There are not many types of Chinese TV dramas, including anti-Japanese dramas, costume dramas, and modern dramas, so we naturally have to choose from them!"

"Most of the investment in costume dramas is quite large. The requirements for professional abilities are relatively high, whether it is clothing, props, or shooting venues. It is a bit difficult for me. Although the anti-Japanese dramas are popular, the problem is... in the past life, China defeated the island country and the anti-Japanese war has long become history. Even I have never watched a few movies. How did I write such scripts? So urban dramas are the most reliable!"

Even if you are full of confidence, it is by no means arrogant. Chu Shi can clearly understand his own strengths and weaknesses and analyze them.

When he returned home, Chu Shi locked himself in the room and wrote one name after another on a blank paper, making a tangled decision.

In Chu Shi's mind, there are only three or five excellent variety shows in the next five years. He is very relaxed and comfortable when choosing. He weighs the pros and cons and makes a decision. However, the number of excellent TV series is obviously far greater than that of variety shows. Even Chu Shi, the decisive Chu Shi, hesitated.

"First of all, I plan to star in this work myself, in terms of the age of the male lead, it is best not to be too old, not over 30 years old. For example, a family drama, a TV series where mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight wits and courage are not suitable for me, you can pass it!"

Thinking in his heart, Chu Shi waved his pen and removed all the names on the white paper.

"I look good. Investing in a youth idol drama should be a good choice, but the problem is... other handsome young actors will like it, but I am not just an idol, but a powerful actor with outstanding acting skills. Rewarding the label of "idol" in advance is not conducive to the development of my acting career, and the same pass!"

With a big stroke of the pen, a series of names were crossed out.

"If you don't mention him in your workplace story, you need the screenwriter to have specific professional knowledge in scripts. It is not difficult for me, but whether it is writing scripts or letting actors find feelings, it is a troublesome thing. It is not suitable to be too hasty, and it is the same pass!"

"A TV series with a female theme? Not to mention, I can't dress up as a man, right?"

"Police and gangster movies? That requires the actors to have certain action scene experience and the actors have requirements for acting skills. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to get them together in a short time, and it won't work..."

Urban drama is just a general term, and it can be said to be all-encompassing.

The characters in the protagonist's play alone can evolve countless types, such as police, journalists, stars, undercover agents, office clerks, housewives, etc.

The main directions of the story are family affection, love, and workplace, and there are also many types.

There are even many urban dramas in the entertainment industry that have not been discovered in the type of entertainment, and have also been listed by Chu Shi. There are many types, making people feel dizzy.

Finally, after more than three hours of busy work, the five pages of white paper were covered with forks of all sizes, leaving only the center position, one of the few names.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the tiredness in Chu Shi's eyes dissipated. He slapped the table suddenly, shaking a piece of waste paper on the table and still didn't notice it. He was completely immersed in his own joy. "I decided! Let's shoot a wealthy fashion drama!"

The three words "fashion drama" can attract countless young men and women. If you add a "wealthy family" in front of the fashion drama, it will be full of luxury and gorgeousness.

This is definitely the best choice for Chu Shi, who is "nothing, nothing is just money" at this moment!

Other TV series, spending money blindly may not attract the attention of the audience, but as long as you are willing to spend money on the "wealthy fashion drama", even if the story is poor, it can attract a large number of viewers. For them, even if it is just to see a luxury product with your own eyes, a fashion-filled dressing match is already satisfied.

If he has a huge investment and has an extremely outstanding story, Chu Shi believes that he will definitely be able to drive the craze of "rich fashion dramas".

"The fire is just around the corner!"
