Chapter 300 Star Studio
There is no doubt about Zhao Laoyan's popularity and popularity in China. His sketches have become an indispensable delicacy at every Spring Festival party.
Over the years, the sketches he performed at the Spring Festival Gala have been among the candidates for the best language sketch, and none of them failed. Among them, there are many times when he won the best.
So much so that Zhao Laoyan is called China's sketch king by the audience.
In recent years, because of his huge popularity and fame in China, Zhao Laoyan has also been invited by many production crews to star in TV series or movies.
However, without exception, there is no screen work that is as popular and loved by the audience as the sketches he performed.
At one time, Zhao Laoyan went to film TV series and movies in order to expand his acting career, but was misunderstood as an act of making money.
This made him very hurt.
Yang Ming listened carefully to Zhao Laoyan describing his thoughts, and he also felt that Zhao Laoyan was confused about his own development path at this moment.
To be honest, if there hadn't been a famous person in his previous life whose path to fame was very similar to Zhao Laoyan's and could be applied to him, Yang Ming wouldn't dare to pat his chest and promise Zhao Laoyan that he could provide him with help.
You must know that standing at the top of an industry and wanting to develop in other areas requires great care and demonstration.
Hearing Yang Ming's assurance, Zhao Laoyan glanced at Yang Ming hesitantly and said to his heart, he came to Yang Ming to help him check things, not to join Oriental DreamWorks. In that case, the risk he took would be real.
Too big.
He couldn't bet on the popularity and reputation he had accumulated over the years, because the bet was too big; but Zhao Laoyan also saw countless miracles performed on Yang Ming with his own eyes, and Yang Ming helped him several times.
, and he couldn't help but refuse Yang Ming directly.
When Yang Ming saw Zhao Laoyan being hesitant and embarrassed, he immediately understood what the other party meant, and couldn't help but said sincerely and seriously: "Brother, look at this, let's not talk about your joining first.
Let’s cooperate first. Our company can provide funding, and I will personally write a tailor-made script for you. After this cooperation, how about we talk about this matter again?”
"Oh?" When Zhao Laoyan heard Yang Ming's suggestion, he couldn't help but think of the first time he and the young man in front of him cooperated.
Likewise, this young man was extremely confident that his sketch script could impress him, and he even offered to make a guest appearance in his TV series for free.
The result was obviously that I was tempted, and then I agreed to make a cameo, and even roped in Song Honghong to play the very classic role of Shancai's parents in "Meteor Garden".
This is a win-win cooperation.
"You are still the same as before, always so confident in yourself." Zhao Laoyan nodded to Yang Ming and said with an inexplicable sigh.
"Haha." Yang Ming smiled slightly, and then continued: "Brother, I also know that asking you to join directly is more difficult than climbing to the sky."
"But I can promise you that as long as you have the intention in the future, you can set up your own studio. You have the final say in everything. The company only needs to occupy a part of your studio's shares."
When Zhao Laoyan heard this, he looked up at Yang Ming in great astonishment. His young face, confident demeanor, and calm temperament did not look like a teenager under twenty. He would give up his money when faced with benefits, which was unusual.
decisive.
In fact, with the experience of his previous life, Yang Ming knew that as time goes by, it will become increasingly difficult to control the king-level artists under the entertainment company. Stars of this level have already become famous, and they are bound by contracts with various requirements.
These celebrities will only become more and more counterproductive.
Therefore, Yang Ming thought of the studio cooperation method used by large entertainment companies in previous lives for their big-name stars.
As the king of sketches in China, Zhao Laoyan is naturally very suitable for this cooperation model.
"Studio?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Laoyan immediately became interested and asked questioningly.
Later, Yang Ming explained every detail of the star studio system in his previous life to Zhao Laoyan in detail.
The studio system actually uses the celebrity's popularity and influence, borrows the company's resources for personal integration, and the benefits are also shared with the original company. This is the prototype of the star studio. Both parties are familiar with the entertainment industry operating procedures, and there is no shortage of them.
funds to maximize resource allocation and achieve a win-win situation. This model is often only suitable for big-name celebrities. Because "big celebrities" have high visibility and a large fan base, it is easier to produce entertainment products in a targeted manner.
Hearing Yang Ming's introduction, Zhao Laoyan gave him a meaningful look. He has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, experienced countless ups and downs, and seen many stars ups and downs. He knows all the rules of the entertainment industry, big and small.
.
When he heard what Yang Ming said about the studio system, he immediately thought that the future structure of the entertainment industry would be re-divided.
In the entertainment industry, which big-name star doesn't want to be his own boss? It can be said that there is no star who doesn't want to have his own career.
Even Zhao Laoyan is no exception. It can be said that deep down in his heart, he always has a self-respecting resistance to joining Oriental DreamWorks and having him work under a young man who is younger than himself and calls him brother.
.
However, now that this studio system is in place, Zhao Laoyan no longer has this burden on his heart.
They are now in a cooperative relationship and are equals.
Moreover, Zhao Laoyan can imagine the impact this system will have on other entertainment giants once it appears in the entertainment industry. It can be said that this system can completely leverage the already fixed patterns of several other major entertainment companies.
This system has a very important premise, that is, the parent company must have abundant resources.
Although Oriental DreamWorks was established not long ago, Zhao Laoyan knew that this company had an advantage that other companies could not match.
That's Yang Ming's terrifying screenwriting ability.
"Meteor Garden" and "The Prince Turns into a Frog" are two TV series that have repeatedly broken the ratings, but they were both written by Yang Ming, and the two sketch scripts in Zhao Laoyan's hands were also tailor-made for him by Yang Ming
Made.
It can be said that while others don't know about Yang Ming's screenwriting ability, Zhao Laoyan knows it clearly.
In addition, Oriental DreamWorks has just been established not long ago and does not have a deep foundation, so the implementation of this star studio system will be more flexible.
Perhaps, in terms of resources and connections, Oriental DreamWorks will not be as good as other established giant companies, but Yang Ming's screenwriting ability and guaranteed capital flow are enough to support a studio with one or two big-name stars.
Therefore, Zhao Laoyan didn't think about it for long before he nodded and said very simply: "Okay, no problem, but I have to read the script you gave me before I agree."
"Brother Zhao, don't worry!" Yang Ming smiled faintly. He had already prepared a suitable script for Zhao Laoyan in his heart.
Chapter completed!
