Chapter 598 Crew Established

Chang'an Building, Bright Entertainment Company, 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 and actresses. He handed the information to him and told him that there was no problem with the role selection of the veteran actors. The TV drama department could report it to Qian Tao. 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 all the rows of seats were 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 started looking for 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 popularity of 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.

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 hit this confidence deeply, and that was Tan Yue.

His "Palace Temple" lost to Tan Yue's "The Lotus Lantern".

He regrouped and took it as a warning. He planned to break his own ratings record with "Night Palace", but lost to Tan Yue's "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

It can be said that Tan Yue left a deep impression on him.

During this period of time, Jiang Bei has been in seclusion. He wants to study some things, his own things, and Tan Yue's things.

Further study and summary. Although he is in seclusion, he also understands the situation in the outside world, such as the overseas activities of the General Administration of Culture, such as Tan Yue's new drama now.

He can ignore other people, but he must pay attention to Tan Yue.

Because he has already fallen twice on Tan Yue.

So after learning that the General Administration of Culture launched overseas activities, he asked people to pay attention to the movements of the Brilliant Entertainment Company and to pay attention to whether there is any news about Tan Yue's new drama.

Sure enough, Tan Yue did not sit still, he wanted to shoot a new drama.

From the information he asked people to inquire, Jiang Bei learned that Tan Yue's new drama was not a palace fight type, nor a comedy type or 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 another new theme.

Tan Yue has crossed another field. To be honest, Jiang Bei does think that Tan Yue is a bit reckless.

Many directors are deeply involved in one field. It is already amazing to be able to shoot a TV series well in one field.

Only the top directors will constantly cross themes, but the cross-theme is not much, and the main themes are only two to three themes.

It is really rare in the TV industry for a drama like Tan Yue to change the theme.

Like Jiang Bei himself, his dramas are basically palace fighting dramas. Although there are other themes, the proportion is not high.

His best theme is still palace drama, such as "Palace Temple" and "Night Palace".

Although he thinks Tan Yue is a bit busy and does not think much, he admires guys like Tan Yue who can become popular every time he crosses a theme. There are really too few such people. No matter what the theme is, he can master it and make the TV series popular. This is amazing.

Even Jiang Bei could not guarantee that he could make every TV series popular across all themes.

Jiang Bei was curious about the new drama "Beginning", that is, he heard that Tan Yue would be the director of this new TV series.

Jiang Bei remembered that Tan Yue had been the screenwriter in "Baolian Lantern", "Underground Traffic Station" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan" before, and was the deputy director in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but he had never been a real director. Or in other words, the TV series "Beginning" was the first TV series that Tan Yue actually directed.

Can Tan Yue make this TV series well? Jiang Bei had a question mark in his mind.

But it was just a question, Jiang Bei was still very confident in Tan Yue.

After all, the shadow left by this guy on him was too heavy.

Jiang Bei was still a little curious about Tan Yue being the director.

You know, being a director is not easy, and the TV series "Beginning" will not be too long, and it must meet many conditions of the General Administration of Culture's overseas activities.

Compared with other TV series, the difficulty is much higher.

This is another test for Tan Yue's directing ability.

Jiangbei will arrange people to keep an eye on the follow-up of "Beginning".

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 "Beginning" will be. If the ratings are high enough, he will study "Beginning" carefully.

Jiangbei supports the overseas activities launched by the General Administration of Culture, but he wants to adjust himself during this period, so he did not sign up for this overseas activity.

Jiangbei did not participate, but Tan Yue participated, and as far as Jiangbei knows, Zhang Baihao also participated in this overseas activity.

There are very few directors in the Chinese entertainment industry who can be highly regarded by Jiangbei, and Zhang Baihao is one of them. Zhang Baihao is a director of a higher generation than Jiangbei, and he is the leader among directors of that age group. Zhang Baihao has high qualifications and strong strength. He repeatedly won the Best Director Award of the three major first-class awards three times.

You should know that even Jiang Bei, who has been in the limelight recently, only won the Grand Slam once. If Jiang Bei is recognized by many people as the first among the new generation of young directors, then Zhang Baihao is the strongest director among Chinese directors in the eyes of many netizens.

Of course, this is believed by many people, not everyone. After all, the eyes of the beholder are beautiful, and everyone has their favorite director. But most people still think that Zhang Baihao is the best director, and netizens affectionately call him "national teacher".

Jiang Bei also thinks that Zhang Baihao is very powerful and has strong directing ability. But it is precisely because of Zhang Baihao's excellence that Jiang Bei is looking forward to this overseas event, because in his opinion, Zhang Baihao and Tan Yue are the two tigers in this event. If two tigers fight, one will be injured, and there will be no two tigers in one mountain. Zhang Baihao and Tan Yue will definitely decide who is better.

Jiang Bei has no confidence in dealing with these two people. So he wants to see these two people, their state when arm wrestling and their respective TV series.

He wants to think about these two opponents, especially Tan Yue, from an outsider's perspective. After all, Zhang Baihao is already old. How many more TV series or movies can he shoot?

But Tan Yue is still young, and his competitor may be Tan Yue for many years to come, so he has to analyze and study Tan Yue carefully. After all, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be invincible in a hundred battles.

Jiangbei has made up his mind. He will not participate in this sea trip, and he will sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, study these two opponents carefully, and improve his own strength, conserve his energy, and fight again next year.

June 21st, morning, nine o'clock.

Beijing, suburbs, film and television base.

There is a very lively area, with firecrackers constantly ringing, and many reporters and passers-by are gathered beside the road. This is a new crew.

Through the discussion of the people next to them, everyone knows that this newly formed crew is the crew of "Beginning", which has been very popular recently.

"Beginning" has not been broadcast yet, but it has gained a relatively high popularity on the Internet. The reason is that the director of this TV series is Tan Yue.

Speaking of Tan Yue, no one in the TV industry does not know him. He is a rising star in this industry.

It is also a golden signboard in the eyes of many viewers. Generally, the ratings of TV series signed with his name will not be bad, and will be very high.

When the news of the drama "Beginning" just came out, many actors in the entertainment industry threw olive branches and wanted to play a role in it, but most of them were rejected, and only a very few were accepted.

Like other crews, the crew of "Beginning" held a start-up ceremony on the morning of the first day of its establishment.

Some offering plates were placed in front of this road, and in front of the offering plates was a small incense burner with incense sticks burning in it.

Ma Guoliang stood on the side of the road and watched the staff who went up to burn incense one by one. He had already lit incense and was waiting for the end of the start-up ceremony.

In fact, he didn't care much about this kind of start-up ceremony. If it weren't for Mr. Tan, 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 familiar with Zhang Wenhua and Liu Qian.

In comparison, he is more familiar with Liu Qian, after all, they also co-starred in "Baolian Lantern".

But they only co-starred together, and the two did not have much contact.

As for Zhang Wenhua, Ma Guoliang knew even less.

Moreover, he felt that Zhang Wenhua was not very suitable to play the male lead of "Beginning".

Zhang Wenhua, a singer and dancer, had never acted in a drama.

If it was another director, Ma Guoliang would definitely be dissatisfied a long time ago. Of course, the director of "Beginning" was Tan Yue. Even if Ma Guoliang was a little dissatisfied, he could only suppress it.

He was curious that Mr. Tan would not fail to understand this, so why did he let Zhang Wenhua be the male lead of the TV series? Did he misjudge it, and Zhang Wenhua was actually suitable for this role?
