Beijing.
Bright Entertainment Company.
Tan Yue made himself a cup of coffee, took a small sip and set it aside.
I had dinner with Chen Ziyu last night and chatted in the living room until late at night. I am a little out of sorts today.
Chen Ye held some documents and knocked gently on the door: "Mr. Tan, these are documents submitted by various departments and require your signature for confirmation."
Each department will submit documents every few days to report on the progress of recent important work of the department.
"Okay, let's put it here first." Tan Yue was processing an email and was anxious to use it.
Chen Ye put down the document, turned and left the office.
Half an hour later, after Tan Yue replied to the email, he drank the remaining half cup of coffee in one gulp.
If he wasn't in a bad mood, he would still prefer to drink tea.
Tan Yue took the documents Chen Ye had put down next to him. The development of each department was very important. It was necessary to keep abreast of it at all times in order to avoid the emergence of some major problems.
As Tan Yue's ranking on the list of top public figures improves, it not only further increases Tan Yue's influence and status, but also has a great impact on Bright Entertainment Company.
Many TV programs have sent invitations, hoping that artists from Bright Entertainment Company can come and record a program.
The film and television department also receives many co-production invitations.
Now that the movies and TV series of Cuican Entertainment are very popular in the industry, some investors naturally want to take advantage of this trend.
Tan Yue slowly looked through the latest developments in various departments.
There are five films being shot in the film department and two in the TV series department.
Tan Yue suddenly remembered that Qian Tao came to him a few days ago and wanted to request a script.
Qian Tao wants a TV drama script that can become a hit, just like "Wulin Gaiden", which can be widely discussed and become the focus once it is broadcast.
'Dong-dong-dong. '
"Please come in."
"Mr. Tan, these are all the TV series that have been broadcast on the market in the past two years with a ratings of more than 2%. This one is all the TV series that have been broadcast. These two documents have been divided according to categories." Qian Tao Looking a little happy, Tan Yue asked himself to do market research, which shows that the script still has great hope.
Tan Yue said: "Director Qian, you came at the right time. I am looking at the report submitted by your department. How is the progress of the two TV series currently being filmed?"
"Everything is going well. One of them will be finished soon, and the other one is about a third of the way done."
Qian Tao didn't hesitate at all when he spoke, and it was obvious that he was quite familiar with the situation of these two movies.
"Okay, I'll think about the script again." Tan Yue nodded and picked up the TV series market research that Qian Tao had just submitted.
"Mr. Tan, I'll go back first."
Although Tan Yue said he should think about it again, Qian Tao knew that this time was different, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited and expectant, and of course nervous.
After Qian Tao left with a beating heart, Tan Yue looked seriously.
A total of 165 TV series were launched in the first half of the year.
Among them, the three genres of urban, romance and costume accounted for as high as 70%, and the remaining 30% included science fiction, suspense, military, biography, comedy, country, and fantasy.
Tan Yue picked up the cup that had been replaced with tea and water: "It seems that everyone still likes these types of TV series."
Cities, romance and costumes are evergreens in the TV drama industry, and are also deeply favored by various directors.
After reading this TV drama market research report for the past two years, Tan Yue lay on the chair and rubbed his temples, thinking about what type of script he should write for the TV drama department?
"Perhaps we can make a Machiavellian TV series." Tan Yue remembered that he had not seen many such TV series in this market research.
Tan Yue stood up and refilled his cup with water, returned to the computer, picked up the massager and placed it on his neck.
Looking at the TV series in the research report, Tan Yue made a decision in his mind and thought: "Then let's try making a plot drama."
Costume dramas have always been recognized by the public and are one of the most popular types of TV dramas. The Machiavellian dramas in costume dramas, which are full of intrigues and battles, have attracted widespread attention.
As an audience, I really enjoyed the process of peeling off cocoons in the play, and the sense of substitution between bright and dark lines was very strong.
If you want to make a good Machiavellian drama, it will be a great test for the screenwriter. This is also the reason why there are relatively few TV dramas of this type.
But these problems were nothing to Tan Yue, and the names of some TV series began to appear in his mind.
Tan Yue was not in a hurry to make a decision, and was still comparing and considering it.
It’s noon in a blink of an eye.
Chen Ziyu knocked on the door and came in: "Ayue, let's go eat."
"Time flies so fast." Tan Yue had been thinking about the TV series and didn't care about the time. Then he took off the massager and prepared to accompany Chen Ziyu to have lunch.
Chen Ziyu asked: "I didn't pay attention to the time. What are you busy with?"
Tan Yue moved his body twice: "Director Qian asked me for a TV series script a few days ago. I'm still thinking about what to write for them?"
The two came out of the office.
"Do you have any ideas now?"
Tan Yue nodded and said: "We have a general direction, but we are not sure yet."
Of course he couldn't tell Chen Ziyu that there were too many scripts and he didn't know which one to choose.
Chen Ziyu expressed concern: "Don't rush this matter, take your time. Recently, the company has received a lot of good scripts. I'll ask their department to find a few more screenwriters to re-adapt them."
Chen Ziyu also knew that the TV drama department wanted to make a phenomenal work, but she didn't want Tan Yue to work so hard.
"Don't worry, it's okay."
The two of them took the elevator to the restaurant and entered a private room.
There are several private rooms in the restaurant specially prepared for high-rise people, and guests are sometimes entertained in this place.
Tan Yue handed the menu to Chen Ziyu: "What do you want to eat?"
Chen Ziyu shook her head and did not look at the menu. She was very familiar with the dishes on the menu. She randomly ordered two of her favorite foods and chatted with Tan Yue while waiting for the food to be served.
After more than 20 minutes, two dishes were brought over, and the staple food was rice.
Tan Yue took a sip, nodded and praised: "The chef's salary is not in vain, it tastes good."
The chefs of Bright Entertainment Company are specially invited from star-rated restaurants, and their taste is very popular among the company's employees.
Chen Ziyu tasted it carefully and said with a smile: "It is indeed delicious, but I don't think it is as delicious as the one you made."
"From now on, you give me the money for the chef, and I'll go to the kitchen to cook for you." Tan Yue joked.
Chen Ziyu laughed: "This is a good idea. A big figure on the list of top public figures not only serves as the vice president and director of Bright Entertainment Company, but is also the chef of the restaurant."
Tan Yue put a mouthful of food into his mouth: "With great power comes great responsibility."
Chen Ziyu on the side laughed again.
When you are with the one you love, you will always laugh uncontrollably.
After lunch, Tan Yue and Chen Ziyu returned to the office.
Chen Ziyu knew that Tan Yue had the habit of taking a nap recently and said, "You can take a nap, I'll go back to the office first."
Tan Yue shook his head and said, "I'm not going to sleep today. I want to think about the TV drama script."
Chen Ziyu picked up the water cup next to the computer, poured the tea leaves into the trash can, picked up new tea leaves and put them inside, and warned: "Don't be too tired."
Once he starts working on movies and TV series, Tan Yue will devote all his energy to it, and sometimes his rest time at night will be postponed.
Tan Yue nodded in response, and Chen Ziyu put the water cup back to its original position: "I will ask Xiaoye to send the documents to my office later, and you can write the script with peace of mind."
Seeing that Tan Yue was about to refuse, Chen Ziyu immediately said: "I can't refuse."
Tan Yue laughed helplessly.
This is what Chen Ziyu can do for Tan Yue.
After Chen Ziyu left, Tan Yue picked up the massage device: "It's still comfortable to wear."
Ever since Chen Ziyu bought him this massager, his neck has never been uncomfortable again.
Touching his chin, he continued to think about the TV series.
There have been many good Machiavellian dramas on earth. Like the general public, Tan Yue particularly loves watching this type of drama.
Whenever a new Machiavellian drama is released, he will follow it.
But Tan Yue had to consider his own situation and the current situation of Bright Entertainment Company.
Everyone in the industry is paying attention to his every move, especially his film and television works.
It can be said that Tan Yue has become a benchmark in the industry, and the quality of TV series must be very good.
Even if it cannot be as popular as the original TV series, the quality cannot drop too much, and the ratings must be at least 3% or above.
Therefore, we must make a TV series that can guarantee reputation and ratings.
Thinking of this, a TV series - "Nirvana in Fire" automatically appeared in Tan Yue's mind.
Tan Yue has watched this drama five times and is quite familiar with the plot. After recalling it carefully, he remembered the plot.
Twelve years ago, 70,000 Red Flame troops were killed by traitors, resulting in the entire army being annihilated. Mei Ling died unjustly, and only Marshal Lin Shu survived by chance.
Twelve years later, Lin Shu transformed himself into the "Kilin Talented Scholar" Mei Changsu, established the Jiangzuo Alliance, and returned to the imperial capital as the number one talent on the "Langya List".
Mei Changsu carries a blood feud and secretly helps his former close friend Prince Jing in the struggle between the crown prince and Prince Yu.
At the same time, he met his former fiancée Mu Nihuang, Princess Yunnan Princess, but could not meet him.
Mei Changsu used his frail body to clear up the injustice and revitalize the country, embarking on a dark and thrilling road to seize the throne.
There is a line in the play that Tan Yue still remembers: Jiangzuo Meilang, a talented man of Qilin, can win the world.
The drama "Nirvana in Fire" won the Feitian Award for Outstanding Historical Drama Series.
The cast is even more powerful, with many veteran actors and actresses, and there are many famous scenes.
But for such a drama, who would have thought that the ratings were not great when it first aired.
After it aired, it suddenly rose to prominence in both ratings and word-of-mouth, with a rating of 9.4 on a certain page.
"Nirvana in Fire" can be called a typical TV series that starts low and goes high.
To this day, there are still many viewers who look for it and watch it again from time to time.
Tan Yue picked up the water glass at hand, took a sip, and created a file on his computer, naming it "Nirvana in Fire".
I moved my shoulders and started writing a biography.
This is a step that Tan Yue must go through every time he writes a script, which helps the actor understand the character.
The first character is the protagonist Mei Changsu.
Mei Changsu experienced ups and downs in his life. When he was young, he was a marshal of the Red Flame Army. When he was invaded by the enemy, he accompanied his father on an expedition. He had unparalleled intelligence.
Unexpectedly, 70,000 soldiers were unjustly buried in Meiling due to being framed by traitors. He was the only survivor who crawled out from the gate of hell. He experienced the pain of losing all his loved ones, having his bones cut into pieces and changing his appearance, and he was poisoned by fire and cold.
Twelve years later, a banner was launched.
Mei Changsu took advantage of the opportunity to recuperate and returned to the imperial capital with a commoner's life, starting his own road of revenge.
If you want to play the role of Mei Changsu well, it is extremely challenging. There are a lot of psychological activities, and the subtle facial expressions are very important.
The sound of typing on the keyboard came from the quiet office. Tan Yue wrote a lot about Mei Changsu's character biography, and Tan Yue also added some of his own understanding.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye. Tan Yue stretched his sore wrist and another important character, Meng Zhi, had just finished writing his biography.
After three hours of concentrated work, Tan Yue rubbed his forehead and felt a little tired.
After taking off the massager, Tan Yue stood up and stretched and moved his body.
Standing by the window and looking at the scenery outside.
It's a bit cloudy outside today, and it looks a bit gray.
But even a cloudy day can't stop the enthusiasm of the summer sun. I don't feel too much coolness, it's still hot.
Tan Yue folded his arms in front of his chest, and his attention was not on the outside. Instead, he was considering handing over the script of "Nirvana in Fire" to the TV drama department for filming.
His main focus now is still on movies.
Tan Yue is preparing to integrate Bright Entertainment Company with international entertainment, and movies can be said to be an important means.
Of course, TV series can also go international, but due to the influence of cultural differences, there are greater limitations.
Just like the foreign blockbusters that everyone in China has seen the most, there are far fewer TV series in comparison.
However, Tan Yue would not be a hands-off shopkeeper and not care about anything.
The script is a good script.
However, if you want to achieve ideal effects, the requirements for actors and directors are very high.
Especially for actors, the success of a Machiavellian drama depends on how well the actors control their characters.
With such a good script, Tan Yue is very confident that it will become popular.
Tan Yue does not want the quality of the TV series to decline because of these factors.
You can usually see a TV series with a very good plot criticized by the audience because the details are not handled well.
Tan Yue rested by the window for more than ten minutes, picked up the empty water glass, filled the water, and returned to the computer to continue working.
Although I have a general idea in my mind, it is still a very arduous task to write it down completely.
There was no one to disturb him for such a long time, and Tan Yue knew that Chen Ziyu was helping him.
Chen Ziyu has already told Chen Ye that all the documents that need approval have been sent to her office. Those who come to report to Tan Yue will only be let in unless there is something particularly important.
With no one to disturb him, Tan Yue focused all his energy on the script.
