"We talked about the general idea of ​​the play on the phone before, and Mr. Qian may have told you two about it."

Lin Baiyao turned to signal to Bai Jie. Bai Jie took out a thick stack of manuscripts from her bag and said: "This is a story outline, unit outline and character biography written by a colleague in our production department who loves literature. Mr. Huang can do it

Use this as a reference to inspire inspiration and try to finalize the script before April."

Huang Haohua took it with a smile, but actually felt a little unhappy.

As a pearl who has been superior for decades, he is willing to go north to develop, and he has already done some psychological construction. There are not many traditional arts skills left that look down on the mainlanders, but there are still residual poisons that have not been eliminated, especially in his own profession.

Don't tolerate other people's judgment.

It's profitable, not shabby.

He suppressed his arrogance as a scholar, and originally planned to just browse through it casually, try his best to find the bright spots and praise them, so as to make investors happy.

Unexpectedly, I was completely attracted after reading the beginning. The only sound in the private room was the rustle of him turning pages. Hu Mingkai was afraid of embarrassing the scene, so he took the initiative to toast Lin Baiyao and said, "Mr. Lin, do you have any ideas about the actors?"

Ordinarily, the director has the power to select actors, but compared with investors, unless he is a great director like Director Zhang and Director Chen, investors still have to take the lead.

Unless you don't want to take this job, be obedient and sensible, and the road will be smoother.

Hu Mingkai has always been a very good person.

In his previous life, he also had a prosperous life in the Mainland.

Lin Baiyao smiled and said: "Well, I do have some immature ideas, Mr. Bai..."

Bai Jie took out another list from her bag and handed it over.

When Hu Mingkai saw it, he felt numb.

Good guy, if you have one girl and two girls, you can tolerate it, but if you have one boy and two boys, you can tolerate it.

But three men and four women and three women and four women have also been selected. What's even more outrageous is that the main characters of each crime-solving unit also have corresponding lists.

The most important thing is that he knows almost no actors in it and has heard of only a few. The implication is that this play will require a large number of new actors.

It's cheap for newcomers, but the risk is high. It's just a gamble.

"I know there are a lot of newcomers."

Lin Baiyao seemed to be able to see through Hu Mingkai's thoughts and said with a smile: "But newcomers are not without their advantages. For example, they are obedient and easy to train. They don't want to be big names and are willing to endure hardships. Whatever you write on a piece of blank paper depends entirely on the director's skills. If it were another director

, I don’t know how to invest, but if you, Director Hu, are in charge, I already know it..."

Qian Qiang smiled and said: "Director Hu, you are new here, so you may not know Mr. Lin's reputation. Let's put it this way, when filming in the mainland, no matter whether it is overt or covert trouble, as long as you open your mouth, there is nothing Mr. Lin can't solve. Mr. Lin and I

, you don’t need to deal with things other than filming, you can concentrate on making a high-quality drama, and you will gain fame and fortune by then, but you still have to worry about not having any dramas to film in the future?”

There are people carrying the sedan chair, and there are investors who appreciate it, and there is Qian Qiang, a big shot in the industry, as a guarantee, so what else is there to say?

Hu Mingkai immediately drank three glasses of wine and declared that he would do his best to make this project perfect and would definitely produce a work that would satisfy all the bosses and all the audiences.

Lin Baiyao then called Mi Yue who was waiting outside and introduced him to Hu Mingkai, saying: "Director Hu, this is the second female lead, Mi Yue. Although she has just joined the industry, she is somewhat famous. Have you seen the Spring Festival Gala? Yes, with Ren Tianwang

Let’s perform together…”

Mi Yue stood up obediently and toasted to Hu Mingkai. She was determined to work hard in the entertainment industry, and without Lin Baiyao's instructions, she took the initiative to give up the sharp edge of young people.

Hu Mingkai didn't dare to raise his voice, so he stood up, raised his glass with a smile, and drank it all.

He was used to seeing beautiful women, and his eyes were the most poisonous. After a cursory look at her while drinking, she was not so numb anymore.

Regardless of how good their acting skills are, there are many big stars in the Pearl Entertainment Circle who can't act. They make movies and TV series, and the audience still buys them.

Many times, appearance trumps everything else.

As for Mi Yue's face, figure, and temperament, she will be particularly beautiful after being photographed through advanced lighting and editing techniques. She is the kind of person who is born to be photographed. No wonder Mr. Lin praises her so much.

After chatting for a few more words, I found that her IQ and EQ are both online, she is generous and has no stage fright, she is articulate and can turn corners, and she is not some silly and cute pretty girl.

This made Hu Mingkai feel at ease.

Bai Jie smiled and said: "I will ask Director Hu for more guidance in acting in the future. Mi Yue is my niece. She has been with me since she was a child. She is no different from my own daughter. The little girl likes to perform and is clamoring to enter the entertainment industry.

What else can I do as an aunt, so I have to ask Mr. Lin to help me..."

Hu Mingkai suddenly realized that there was such a relationship. He immediately felt that Lin Baiyao had arranged for Mi Yue to be the female lead, and he was already a very rational investor. He hurriedly said: "Mr. Bai is very polite. Hu will definitely try his best."

At this time, Huang Haohua couldn't help but slapped the table and sighed: "Okay! Suspense, costumes, idols, martial arts, comedy and romance, six major elements of innovation, just follow this framework, this drama will definitely be a hit..."

Lin Baiyao is now thick-skinned and will not be ashamed of these trivial details. He smiled and said: "Since Mr. Huang is satisfied, it is basically settled. We will proceed simultaneously. You will work on the script here, and Guoyu will talk to Songhu TV about being affiliated.

After approval and certification, Yizi and Director Hu are preparing to form a team. They have released the news that they will invest 30 million in this drama and start a nationwide audition for actors..."

Hu Mingkai and Huang Haohua have been in the entertainment industry for most of their lives and are familiar with various hype techniques. Although Lin Baiyao's list just now is almost predetermined, auditions are a common strategy to create topics and hot spots, and exaggerating the amount of investment is the industry's rule.

No objections were raised.

Qian Qiang said: "Songhu Satellite TV is staffed by our own people. All Guoyu's dramas are affiliated with Songhu Satellite TV's Category A certificate, so there should be no problem. And as long as the script is done well this time, I am sure to attract them to invest...

…”

In the 1990s, when privately owned film and television companies produced TV dramas, they needed to use the "TV Series Production License (Type A)" that was only issued to state-owned TV stations, so affiliation became common.

It was not until December 30, 2003, that the superior authorities promulgated the "Opinions on Promoting the Development of the Radio, Film and Television Industry" and issued Class A certificates to the first batch of eight privately owned film and television companies.

In all walks of life, unfair competition can be seen everywhere.

Without capital, no backing, and no connections, if ordinary people want to have a successful career, it is really difficult to achieve success compared to future generations.

The guests and hosts had a great time at this meal. Lin Baiyao promised that funds were not a problem. The eight million was just the budget. It was okay to overspend a little.

He also introduced Cao Bei to Hu Mingkai and asked him to be the on-site executive deputy director and learn some experience from him. Of course, Hu Mingkai welcomed him.

As for the people from the management, just wait and see!

Back at Yizi's office building, Ye Sushang and others prepared the recruitment materials and printed hundreds of copies. The design was simple and beautiful, and there was a TT slogan: Technology allows communication without boundaries.

After reviewing, Lin Baiyao nodded and asked them to be divided into three batches tomorrow. Cai Xinfeng will go to Jiaotong University, Lei Guangming will go to Tongji, and Ye Sushang will go to Fudan. They will not only recruit people from the computer department, business administration, human resources, etc.

"What about you?" Ye Sushang asked.

Lin Baiyao smiled and said: "I will go to the city hall tomorrow to meet with Vice Mayor Rao. The company is going to enter the Tongjiang Science and Technology Park. It is impossible not to discuss it with the leader of the park's leadership group... Fortunately, I met him at the New Year's cocktail party last time. I should
