Chang'an Building, Bright Entertainment Company, in the area where the president's office is located on the 60th floor, in Tan Yue's office.
It was mid-morning, the sun was strong, and the air was bright and dazzling.
Dazzling sunlight shines into the office through the glass windows.
Tan Yue sat behind his desk and looked at a stack of documents on the table. These were all information compiled by Qian Tao about the veteran actors who played important roles in "The Beginning".
Tan Yue read through them one by one and felt that there was no problem.
Qian Tao is also experienced, and with him taking care of things, there will basically be no problems in this regard.
After confirming the role, he called Chen Ye in and asked her to go to Qian Tao with the information about the veteran actors, hand it over to him, and told him that there was no problem with the role selection of the veteran actors, and the TV drama department could contact him. He sent it to apply for funding from the crew of "The Beginning", and then the project could be approved.
…
…
Youdao means that if a leader says something, his subordinates will run into trouble.
Tan Yue only needs to sit behind his desk and read the information, but Qian Tao has too much to do.
He needs to find actors, contact veteran actors, and go to a suburban film and television base to build a studio, including some props.
I also found a passenger transport company in Beijing to buy an old-fashioned bus that had been eliminated. After some renovation, the bus was as good as new.
Chang'an Building, underground parking lot.
Qian Tao led a group of people here and looked at the renovated bus in front of them.
He waved someone to open the door of the bus. Qian Tao walked onto the bus and looked back from the front. He saw that the rows of seats were all wiped clean.
This bus later became an important prop for the crew of "The Beginning". He had a certain understanding of the script and knew that most of the plot was spent on the bus.
Therefore, the bus is a prop that the crew must pay attention to. Of course, scenes such as explosions must be created through post-production special effects.
Qian Tao narrowed his eyes slightly and thought of the seats of each character in the plot of "The Beginning". Where they sat was planned.
This is Xiao Heyun's seat, and there is Li Shiqing's seat. A bag of watermelon will be placed here, and a pressure cooker will be placed there.
Qian Tao couldn't help but shudder when he thought of that pressure cooker. It was really scary.
What Qian Tao didn't know was that the plot of "The Beginning" had a prototype in Tan Yue's previous life.
…
…
When "The Beginning" first began to recruit actors, news leaked out and caused a lot of discussion on the Internet.
After all, in Tan Yue's current position, every move involves the voices of countless people.
Too many eyes are staring at his signature, and I don’t know how many people want to get involved and get a piece of the pie.
After the actors were confirmed and the crew was almost ready, the TV drama department of Bright Entertainment Company finally decided to launch the project of "The Beginning" and announced the upcoming formation of the crew.
It was just some rumors before, and many people didn't know it yet.
Now the TV series department of Cuican Entertainment has announced that Tan Yue will be filming a new TV series, which instantly caused an uproar in the entertainment industry.
Various traditional media, new media, and self-media have reported and publicized this incident.
It’s not that the public relations department of Bright Entertainment Company invited them, but that they promoted it spontaneously in pursuit of the traffic.
on Weibo.
"It's so fast. Teacher Tan Yue's new drama is coming out so soon."
"The name of this new drama is "The Beginning". Does it have any meaning?"
"Oh my God, the leading actors are Zhang Wenhua and Liu Qian. The male and female protagonists of this drama are quite interesting."
"I particularly like Zhang Wenhua. I have always listened to his music before. I didn't expect that he would be filming a TV series so soon."
"There is only one popular artist that I am optimistic about recently, Zhang Wenhua. Other popular artists at the same time as him have basically fallen into disrepute. Only Zhang Wenhua is still active on the center stage of the entertainment industry."
"Wow, Liu Qian is also one of the leading actors in "The Beginning". I really like her. She has a fairy spirit."
…
…
Magic City, Tianjing Entertainment Company Building.
Currently, there are only two entertainment companies in the Chinese entertainment industry that have their own office buildings. One is Tianjing Entertainment Company and the other is Guangmei Entertainment Company.
These two companies are also the only two first-class entertainment companies in the entertainment industry. Following these two entertainment companies is the Bright Entertainment Company.
In director Jiangbei's office,
Jiang Bei was sitting behind his desk. There was a teacup in front of him. The cup was half filled with boiling water, and there were a few tea leaves floating on the boiling water that looked like swimming dragons.
Siluke
The faint scent of tea wafted out from the cup. Jiang Bei twitched his nose slightly and nodded with satisfaction.
This is a jar of Wuyishan Dahongpao that Fengguang gave him before. It smells extremely fragrant and tastes very good. Such a small jar is worth six figures.
Of course, a copyright of scenery can easily be sold for hundreds of millions, and a mere six-digit amount of tea is just a drop in the bucket to him.
While drinking Dahongpao, Jiang Bei leaned on the chair and closed his eyes.
He was not leisurely, but rather he was in a serious mood.
Because he got the news that Tan Yue was going to film a new drama.
In the TV drama industry, Jiangbei dares to say that he is already at the top of the industry.
Maybe some well-known directors have higher qualifications than him, but they are not necessarily more capable than him.
Jiangbei is still very confident in himself.
He had the confidence to compete with anyone, but the appearance of one person severely hit this confidence, and that was Tan Yue.
His "Palace" lost to Tan Yue's "Lotus Lantern".
He regrouped, took a lesson, and planned to break his own ratings record for "The Palace of Night," which lost to Tan Yue's "The Legend of Zhen Huan."
It can be said that Tan Yue left a deep impression on him.
Jiangbei has been in seclusion during this period of time. He wants to study some things, his own things, and Tan Yue's things.
Summarizing further study, although I am in retreat, I am also aware of the external situation, such as the overseas activities of the General Administration of Culture, and the current new drama of Tan Yue.
He doesn't have to pay attention to other people, but he must pay attention to Tan Yue.
Because he had already made two big mistakes with Tan Yue.
So after learning that the General Administration of Culture had launched overseas activities, he asked people to pay attention to the trends at the Bright Entertainment Company and to pay attention to whether there was any news about Tan Yue's new drama.
As expected, Tan Yue couldn't sit still, he wanted to film a new drama.
From the information he asked people to inquire about, Jiangbei learned that Tan Yue's new drama is not a palace battle type, nor a comedy type, nor a myth type, but an urban theme.
Compared with the previous "Baolian Lantern", "Underground Traffic Station" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan", this "Beginning" is a new theme.
Tan Yue crossed another field. To be honest, Jiangbei really felt that Tan Yue was a bit reckless.
Many directors are deeply involved in one field. If they can film a TV series well in one field, they are already very good.
Only the top directors will continue to cross themes, but there are not many themes they cross, and they only focus on two or three themes.
Changing the theme of a drama like Tan Yue is really rare in the TV drama industry.
Like Jiang Bei himself, his dramas are basically based on palace battle dramas. Although there are other themes, the proportion is not high.
His best subjects are palace dramas, such as "Palace" and "Night Palace".
Although he felt that Tan Yue was a little busy and didn't think too much about things, he admired guys like Tan Yue who became popular every time he crossed a subject. There were really too few people like him. No matter what the subject matter is, he can master it and make TV series popular, which is great.
Even Jiangbei can't guarantee that it can cross various themes and make every TV series a hit.
Regarding the new drama "The Beginning", Jiang Bei is also curious about something, that is, he heard that Tan Yue will serve as the director in this new TV drama.
Jiang Bei remembered that Tan Yue had previously served as screenwriter in "Lotus Lantern", "Underground Traffic Station" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and served as the assistant director in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but he had not yet acted as a real director. . In other words, the TV series "The Beginning" is the first TV series actually directed by Tan Yue.
Can Tan Yue make this TV series well? Jiang Bei had a question mark in his heart.
But just by asking, Jiangbei still has great confidence in Tan Yue.
After all, the shadow this guy left on him was too heavy.
Jiang Bei is still a little curious about Tan Yue's role as director.
You must know that directing is not easy, and the TV series "The Beginning" will not be too long and must meet many conditions of the General Administration of Culture for overseas activities.
Compared with other TV dramas, the difficulty is much higher.
This is another test for Tan Yue's directing ability.
Regarding the follow-up to "The Beginning", Jiangbei will arrange for people to keep an eye on it.
He is very concerned about Tan Yue now, and he wants to know every move of Tan Yue.
He wants to see what the ratings of "The Beginning" will be. If the ratings are high enough, he will study "The Beginning" carefully.
Jiangbei supported the overseas trip launched by the General Administration of Culture, but he wanted to adjust himself during this period, so he did not sign up for the overseas trip.
Jiangbei did not participate, but Tan Yue did, and as far as Jiangbei knew, Zhang Pakho also participated in this overseas activity.
There are very few directors in the Chinese entertainment industry who can be admired by Jiang Beigao, and Pakho Chang is one of them. Zhang Pakho is a director a generation above Jiang Bei, and he is the leader among directors of that age group. Zhang Pakho has high qualifications and strong strength. He won the Best Director Award in three major categories, and he won the Grand Slam three times.
You must know that even Jiangbei, who has been in the limelight recently, only won one Grand Slam. If Jiang Bei is recognized by many as the number one among the new generation of young directors, then Pakho Chang is the strongest director among Chinese directors in the eyes of many netizens.
Of course, this is believed by many, not everyone. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and everyone has their favorite director. But most people still think that director Zhang Pakho is the best, and he is affectionately called "National Master" by netizens.
Jiang Bei also thinks that Zhang Pakho is very powerful and has extremely strong directing ability. But it is precisely because of Zhang Pakhao's excellence that Jiangbei is looking forward to this overseas activity, because in his opinion, Zhang Pakhao and Tan Yue are the two tigers in this activity. When two tigers compete, one will be injured. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. . There will definitely be a battle between Zhang Pakho and Tan Yue.
For these two people, Jiangbei had no confidence in dealing with them. So he wanted to see how these two people were fighting each other and their respective TV series.
He wanted to take a good look at these two opponents, especially Tan Yue, from an outsider's perspective. After all, Zhang Bohao is already old. How many more years can he make TV series or movies?
But Tan Yue is still young, and his competitor may be Tan Yue for many years to come, so he needs to analyze and study Tan Yue carefully. After all, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be invincible in a hundred battles.
Jiang Bei has already made up his mind. He will not participate in this overseas trip. He will sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. He will study these two opponents carefully, improve his own strength, recharge his batteries, and stay to fight again next year. .

...
June 21, morning, nine o'clock.
Capital city, suburbs, film and television base.
One area was quite lively, with firecrackers ringing constantly and many reporters and passers-by gathered around the road. This was the formation of a new crew.
Through discussions with others, everyone knows that this newly formed crew is the crew of "The Beginning" which has become very popular recently.
"The Beginning" has become quite popular on the Internet even before it is aired. The reason is because the director of this TV series is Tan Yue.
Speaking of Tan Yue, no one in the TV drama industry does not know him. He is a rising star in this industry.
He is also a golden brand in the eyes of many viewers. Generally speaking, the ratings of TV series with his name will not be bad and will be very high.
When the news of the drama "The Beginning" first came out, many actors in the entertainment industry reached out and wanted to play a role in it, but most of them were rejected, and only a few were accepted.
The crew of "The Beginning", like other crews, held a start-up ceremony on the morning of its first day of establishment.
There are some offering plates placed in front of the road. In front of the offering plate is a small incense burner with sticks of incense burning inside.
Ma Guoliang stood on the roadside and looked at the staff who went up to offer incense one by one. He had already lit incense and was waiting for the start-up ceremony to end.
In fact, he didn't pay much attention to this kind of booting ceremony. If Mr. Tan hadn't been present, he might have left secretly and returned to the camp to figure out the role.
Taking a deep breath, Ma Guoliang turned his head and glanced at Zhang Wenhua and Liu Qian next to him.
Ma Guoliang was not very familiar with Zhang Wenhua and Liu Qian.
In comparison, I am more familiar with Liu Qian, after all, they also participated in "Lotus Lantern" together.
But they were just acting together, and the two of them didn't have much contact.
As for Zhang Wenhua, Ma Guoliang knows even less.
Moreover, he felt that it was not very suitable for Zhang Wenhua to play the leading actor in "The Beginning".
Zhang Wenhua, a singing and dancing singer, has never acted in a drama.
If it had been another director, Ma Guoliang would definitely have been dissatisfied. Of course, the director of "The Beginning" was Tan Yue. Even if there is some dissatisfaction in Ma's conscience, it can only be suppressed.
He wondered if Mr. Tan couldn't understand this, so why would Zhang Wenhua be the leading actor in the TV series? Could it be that I made a mistake, Zhang Wenhua is actually suitable for this role?
