Sichuan TV station.
Tian Wenbin bought the premiere rights to the short drama "The Beginning" for 50 million, which caused quite a controversy.
"Is the new director crazy? He would buy this TV series with only fifteen episodes at such a high price."
"The producer of this drama is Tan Yue from Bright Entertainment Company. Now Tan Yue is the guarantee of ratings in the film and television industry. Being able to buy his TV series means that the ratings of the station will be improved."
"I know this is Tan Yue's new drama, but the price is too high. This is 50 million. Which director's drama can't be bought?"
"Now we are at the bottom among provincial TV stations across the country. The new director must want to make some achievements and perform well when he takes office."
"I think Director Tian may have been a little aggressive this time and was too eager for quick success."
"I hope that after this drama is aired, our station director will be transferred to other TV stations...Hey, hey, hey, I didn't say anything just now, and you didn't hear anything either."
Many people in Sichuan TV Station did not understand Tian Wenbin's approach. They felt that he was too eager for success and that the price he paid was too high in order to increase the ratings.
Tian Wenbin also heard some voices talking about him on the stage, but he didn't take it to heart.
Tian Wenbin understands everyone's comments about him, because no matter which TV station it is on, there has never been a precedent of spending 50 million to buy the premiere rights of a short drama.
Looking at the embarrassed deputy director, Tian Wenbin said: "Don't worry, I will be fully responsible for any problems."
The deputy director dragged his heavy steps out of the office. The two parties had not yet signed a contract. The deputy director hoped that Tian Wenbin would reconsider, but he did not expect him to be so insistent.
Tian Wenbin came to the window, lit a cigarette, and said to himself: "In the future, you will understand why I did this... I hope that in this step, I made the right bet."
Others laugh at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others because they can’t see through it.
Since others can't understand the reason for doing this, then use the ratings to explain why such a crazy move.
...
August 17th.
Beijing.
Film base.
"Although they come from all walks of life, in our hearts, they are heroes. Let us use applause to invite the heroes to the stage."
Tan Yue held the walkie-talkie and whispered: "Push the No. 2 machine up a little. The camera will be a little far away from the actors, okay."
"The Beginning" is currently filming the final set of shots, which is also a commendation meeting for eight people.
Amid warm applause, all eight people took the podium.
"Comrades, although the ages, experiences, and positions of the eight of them are different, they all have one thing in common, which is that they can stand up when the safety of people's lives and property is threatened."
"In this major public safety incident in Jialin City, it was they who discovered it in time, were fearless in the face of danger, and bravely fought against criminals, thus protecting the collective interests of the country and the safety of people's lives and property."
"Here I announce that after research and decision by the Jialin City People's Government, they will be awarded the Brave Act of Justice Award, and a 30,000 yuan bonus of 30,000 yuan will be awarded to each commended advanced individual."
Xiao Heyun and Li Shiqing looked at the certificate of honor. When the final photo was taken, they looked at each other.
"Click". Tan Yue's voice came.
Then he re-watched the shooting scene just now, Tan Yue smiled and nodded, saying: "I passed."
Soon, word spread that the final play had passed.
The whole crew cheered, and "The Beginning" was officially finished.
"It's finished!"
"Great, it's finally done."
Zhang Wenhua and Liu Qian hugged each other, and Liu Qian whispered: "I didn't expect your acting skills to be quite good. I was a little surprised."
After this period of filming, Liu Qian admired Zhang Wenhua's efforts.
Zhang Wenhua's hard work is not seen in many professional actors. During her spare time during filming, Liu Qian often saw Zhang Wenhua asking others for advice, especially the supporting roles played by veteran actors in the play. Sometimes they would ask several questions in a row. .
Zhang Wenhua's label as an idol singer has disappeared in Liu Qian's eyes, replaced by a professional actor.
"Thank you, Teacher Liu, for taking care of me during this time."
Tan Yue took the loudspeaker and shouted: "Tonight we are going to have a closing banquet."
There were cheers from the crew again. Everyone knew that Tan Yue was always generous in this regard, and felt that he could have another big meal tonight.
Tan Yue arranged for the crew to start packing up the equipment, and the actors took photos of each other. After all, he didn’t know when they would work together again.
Ma Guoliang, who plays Officer Zhang, was hugged by the aunt who was preparing various medicines in the play. The aunt said excitedly: "Teacher Ma, you are so handsome. I have followed all the dramas you have played. Especially The roaring dog you played in "Lotus Lantern" is so similar."
Ma Guoliang: "..."
Ma Guoliang wanted to speak, but he didn't know how to reply to his aunt's compliment.
Tan Yue did not disappoint everyone. The final banquet was still held at Tianling Hotel.
After packing up the equipment at the film and television base, Tan Yue brought the crew to the hotel.
...
...
Hotel Lobby.
Tan Yue said: "I have worked hard for you all for so long. Let's relax tonight and have enough drinks."
Someone shouted loudly: "Director Tan is awesome."
The hall became lively. As a screenwriter and director, Tan Yue certainly couldn't avoid drinking. The crew members came over to toast one after another.
Some people will still be cautious in such a big occasion, but after a few glasses of wine, the alcohol will start to kick in. There were several tables of people starting to drink together.
The meal lasted until about eleven o'clock in the evening.
...
the next day.
Tan Yue got up early and came to the company to work.
He knew that the completion of "The Beginning" could not be hidden, so he simply contacted several media directly and asked them to report directly to create a wave of popularity.
Now the word "Tan Yue" means traffic, and the media who got the news will certainly not miss this opportunity.
Many media outlets began to report on the completion of "The Beginning".
["Star Magazine": Tan Yue's new drama "The Beginning" was completed yesterday! I look forward to this drama meeting the audience as soon as possible! 】
[Entertainment Weekly: It is reported that "The Beginning" is a new work that is more of a fantasy genre. I wonder if it can continue Tan Yue's achievements in ratings. 】
["Entertainment News": "The Beginning" lasted two months and was officially announced at the Beijing Film and Television Base! 】
["Entertainment News": The new drama "The Beginning", directed by Tan Yue for the first time, has officially been announced! 】
Once the news was released, it naturally aroused discussion among fans.
"I've been waiting so hard. Teacher Tan Yue's new drama has finally been completed, but I just don't know when it will be released."
"Teacher Tan Yue is awesome. Every drama has its own genre. Isn't there something he's not good at?"
""Lotus Lantern" I would call it the ceiling of mythological dramas, "Underground Traffic Station" I would call it the ceiling of the world of food, and "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is the ceiling of proper palace fighting dramas. Tan Yue in short is the ceiling that is created Yes, I don’t know if "The Beginning" can make Teacher Tan Yue still a ceiling-level existence."
"I wonder if Mr. Tan Yue can continue his ratings myth in modern dramas." Gu Xian
"I'm really looking forward to the broadcast of "The Beginning"."
"With the word "Tan Yue", the ratings of this TV series are stable, but I don't know if it can break the ratings record of "The Legend of Zhen Huan"."
"There haven't been any popular modern dramas in the past few years. I just hope that Mr. Tan Yue will not overturn."
Tan Yue's first three TV series are generally more historical, while "The Beginning" is completely a modern drama.
Looking at the modern dramas that have appeared in the past few years, they are basically all about love and love, love and love, and the audience has no intention of watching it.
Many fans are worried about Tan Yue, fearing that he will fall over on this. The year before last, there was a scene where a major director overturned.
Of course, some fans noticed that there is a word behind the modern drama - time loop.
Immediately, many fans had a bad premonition: It couldn't be a love cycle! ?
There is only so much information about "The Beginning" right now, and viewers really can't imagine what kind of TV series this is.
...
...
south.
A small city by the sea.
In the hot summer, the temperature at the beach is not only high, but the sunshine is also scorching, but the sea breeze blowing can make people feel slightly refreshed.
The sea breeze blew by, making the makeshift studio make noise.
In the studio, Pakho Chang was reading entertainment news and said thoughtfully: "Tan Yue's new drama is finished."
On the phone was the news about the completion of "The Beginning" reported by major media.
Pakho Chang is currently on the set of "Alley". "Alley" is a new drama directed by him. It mainly tells the story that happened in the 1970s and 1980s. This is what Pakho is best at.
Pakho Chang has been planning this script for three years and has recruited the top screenwriters in the country to co-create it.
Pakho Chang attaches great importance to "The Alley". Not only has the script been polished dozens of times, the cast this time is also quite strong, and the photography team has also hired the top domestic team.
In the two months since filming started, the crew has been filming in this place in an intense and orderly manner. The harsh sunshine on the beach has also made many people on the crew's skin darker.
Especially Zhang Pakho, who has experienced hard times and has never paid much attention to appearance. He has never used sunscreen and skin care products. He usually only wears a hat at most. His skin is the most dark among the entire crew.
"I wonder if this Tan Yue can carry the banner of the Chinese film and television industry in the future." Pakho Chang thought to himself.
There are quite a few people entering the directing circle now, but there are only a few who can catch Pakho Chang’s fancy.
Since the ratings of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" exceeded 4, Zhang Pakho has paid special attention to this newcomer in the film and television director circle.
Now that the filming of "Alley" is coming to an end, Zhang Pakho is not sure whether it will conflict with Tan Yue's "The Beginning".
In Zhang Pakhao's heart, he really hopes that the two TV series can collide. He wants to see what Tan Yue's abilities are.
Zhang Pakhao turned off his mobile phone and began to instruct the crew to continue filming.
Tan Yue is a very capable competitor. For Pakho Chang, the chance of winning "Alley" can be said to be 70%. After all, he has been in the directing industry for more than 30 years, so he still has some confidence.
In the director world, many people think that Pakho Chang is the top director in China and has won numerous awards at home and abroad.
...
A week later.
Beijing, Chang'an Building.
President's office.
Wu Gong came to Tan Yue's office with a publicity plan.
Wu Gong: "Mr. Tan, this is the publicity plan prepared by our public relations department. Please take a look."
Tan Yue said, "Mr. Wu, please sit down and have a sip of tea while I take a look."
After the filming of "The Beginning" was completed, Tan Yue had already arranged for people to start the post-editing work, and the corresponding publicity plan was also arranged for Wu Gong and his publicity department to start planning.
Wu Gong sat in front of the coffee table, still a little nervous.
In terms of publicity plans, Wu Gong had great confidence, but when he saw Tan Yue carefully reading through the plans he had submitted, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Tan Yue read it very seriously, reading almost word for word.
The office fell into a brief silence. After about ten minutes, Tan Yue said: "Mr. Wu, I am very satisfied with this plan."
After saying that, he signed his name on the back.
Wu Gong also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately left Tan Yue's office, hurriedly returned to the public relations department, and started arranging personnel to start preheating online.
...
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
The official Weibo of Bright Entertainment Company suddenly updated an update with three poster images.
The first two are personal posters of the male and female protagonists respectively.
The third poster is very interesting. Tan Yue personally participated in the design of this one and added a lot of his own ideas. The whole poster is roughly divided into three parts.
In the middle and upper position are two large characters "beginning".
On the left is an "8", and inside the "8" are the male and female protagonists. One is sitting on the upper part and the other is sitting on the lower part. The two are looking forward as if they are sitting in a cage.
The two people look towards the bus on the right side of the poster, and these three parts are trapped inside by a clock.
The accompanying text on the official Weibo is very simple: First to quench your thirst, let’s take a look at the handsome actor Zhang Wenhua and the beautiful heroine Liu Qian of "The Beginning". Warm reminder, there are a lot of things in the third poster!
After it was posted on Weibo, the comment section exploded instantly.
"Wow, we finally have news about Teacher Tan Yue's new drama. Could you please tell me when it will be released?"
"It's been a long time since I saw the male idol release a new song. I didn't expect that he would be filming a TV series with Mr. Tan Yue, but the male idol is still so handsome."
"This photo of the goddess looks so innocent. The goddess doesn't play a student in it."
"It's nothing. It's just two people and a bus."
"Damn it, I feel like this promotional poster has so much meaning, but I don't seem to see anything."
"What you said above is very good, don't say it next time."
"Hahaha, the brother upstairs is too funny, don't say it next time."
"Support, support, will you still watch it on Hedong TV this time?"
The most discussed topic in the comment area is: what is hidden in the third poster.
Too many netizens are hooked by this poster, mainly because this drama is Tan Yue's drama, so it will definitely not be simple. If it were a drama by another director, netizens would not be so positive.
For a time, netizens were speculating.
There is no way around it. This wave of saucy operations on the official Weibo just caught the curiosity of the audience, and many fans shared their opinions in the message area.
But there is so little information about "The Beginning" now that almost no one can guess the answer.
