Chapter 1199: Relatives Can Easily Become Enemies (Part 1)
It is not new to film theme films and TV series. After all, there are more or less tasks in this regard every year, but the investment varies.
However, compared with the later dramas such as the crotch mines, steamed bun mines, and Gatling. The theme movies at this time are either strictly prohibited like textbooks.
Or they are good in the general direction, and the screenwriters will not be stupid enough to come up with any magical plots, and the props given by the drama management are also reliable. However, the content of the works tends to be more comedic.
For example, the content of some war films is actually less cruel and more humorous. This is also a place that people often criticize, but compared with the later dramas, these dramas are more or less acceptable.
Although they can't make much money, the channels for selling to TV stations are relatively smooth, and basically as long as the review can be passed, there is no problem in making a profit. Therefore, choosing such film and television works to shoot TV series is actually the least risky.
After all, the family background of the Wei family is there, as long as there is no mistake in the principles. There is no risk of not being able to sell the things shot, and whether the TV series loses money depends on the TV station, not on whether the movie depends on whether the audience buys it. Bai Feng is undoubtedly very confident in the former.
"I saw a good script at a meeting at Haina two days ago. It's about the Anti-Japanese War. If you are interested, you can work with Haina." Yang Dongxu said after a pause.
"Haina also needs partners?" Bai Feng looked at Yang Dongxu in surprise.
Even Bai Xi and Li Yihang beside him looked at him strangely. The current Haina is not the same as the previous Haina. It is not only the boss in the entire film and television industry, but also overbearing in doing things.
Of course, this overbearing is not bullying men and women, but compared with other film and television companies, it is more or less to attract actors, or to find investors, or simply to support people by itself.
When filming a work, even if you take the lion's share, you will basically bring in a few investors. This is a disguised way of expanding and binding your own network.
Haina does things differently, especially in recent years, it has become more and more independent, although it has not done things like occupying other people's scripts or grabbing other people's things.
But basically other people take good scripts and beg Haina to shoot. Haina never needs investors for the scripts it likes, and basically it is done by itself.
This will invisibly offend many people. This offense is not that you make money from these people, or that these people lose money. It is that you are eating meat, but you don't let people drink soup with you, and let people stand by and watch. This offends people. People are all like this.
But Haina is powerful, and what is more important is that he has made a name for himself in the music circle, film and television circle, and even in the world-recognized top circle Hollywood. He is half a level away from being on par with world giants such as Sony and Warner.
So even if these people are jealous and want to mess with Haina, they can only bear it. After all, Haina likes to eat alone, and Yang Dongxu has always been domineering. Although he doesn't offend people actively, no one who offends him has a good end.
Generally, people with great backgrounds compete with each other, and the loser loses momentum at most. But Yang Dongxu is different. He prefers those who are more down-to-earth, those who make trouble for him or even have ulterior motives. It is definitely not as simple as losing face or being scolded by parents at home. There are more than one or two people who are imprisoned and shot.
So Yang Dongxu suddenly wants to cooperate with Bai Feng, and everyone's reaction is whether Yang Dongxu wants to cheat Bai Feng. Compared with Li Yihang and others, Yang Dongxu and Bai Feng are more straightforward in exchanging interests. They are at most acquaintances, but not friends.
"It is really a collaboration, and the script is definitely a good one. Based on Haina's many years of experience in filming, this drama will definitely be a big hit when it is released. It is just a little different from the current anti-Japanese war films, and it is a more realistic type." Yang Dongxu said.
"Did it go beyond the line?" Bai Feng asked.
"No, if there is, Haina would not dare to shoot it. But the original work is too real, so some of the content can be presented in the form of a novel. But it is definitely not possible for film and television works, but the script is well adapted.
But even if such a movie is a big hit, it will not make as much money as a TV series. Even if the people in it become stars, there is not much room for commercial value to operate.
Some actors may only have such a drama, just like many actors in the boss's "Water Margin" are very famous in China, but will gradually disappear among the crowd.
So such a drama is actually just like the commercial value of Haina shooting it by itself or pulling a few partners to shoot it together. The main thing is to present the things of that era relatively realistically, of course there must be embellishments. But it is better than the current way of shooting war films with comedy." Yang Dongxu explained.
Bai Feng nodded thoughtfully, and she understood what Yang Dongxu meant. This is a TV series that can complete the tasks of the people above and can shoot what you want.
But that's all. This drama may make money, but it certainly can't make a lot of money. Therefore, it would be a favor to pull a few more investors in such a movie.
"I want to take a look at the script." Bai Feng said.
"I'll have someone from Haina send it to you later. But you have to make a decision quickly, because we have to start shooting before the New Year." Yang Dongxu said.
In fact, although Jiang Wen and others' petition was small and the effect was not very good, Yang Dongxu actually had the same idea as them to change the current situation of the domestic film and television industry.
However, compared to those people who wrote letters to force the palace and confronted the superiors. Yang Dongxu decided to change little by little through his works, make the works more realistic, take a small step at a time, and don't start with all kinds of ironic hints, as if you are the only smart person in the world.
In this way, you can shoot what you want, and the superiors won't feel that they have been slapped in the face. Everyone has a tacit understanding, and gradually change slowly to be gentle and silent, instead of making it like slaughtering pigs now, with all kinds of screams at the beginning, and then bloody in the end.
After a while of eating, some people started to toast at the main table. Basically, they didn't go to all tables, but took a photo of a representative that everyone thought was okay at each table.
In the eyes of ordinary people, a big family like the Bai family may have delicacies from mountains and seas every day, and their birthdays are probably like the Queen Mother's Peach Banquet.
In fact, it is not.
In terms of the specifications of the dishes, Bai Qiansong's birthday party is not as good as a dinner party of a local tyrant. Not to mention the people who came, except for Yang Dongxu and a few people, they are basically relatives.
There was no rule of not talking while eating or sleeping at the table. It was similar to the rural families. Seats were arranged according to seniority. When toasting, a few words of congratulations to the elders were said. There were longevity peaches and longevity noodles, but no cake. It seemed more traditional than ordinary rural people.
Yang Dongxu went to the main table to toast Bai Qian, who was with him. Bai Qiansong wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't say anything. He just patted Yang Dongxu on the shoulder.
People are so realistic. The relationship between Yang Dongxu and Bai Qian has been pointed out by many people. It also made Bai Qiansong feel embarrassed that the eldest daughter of the Bai family was actually a mistress.
But when Yang Dongxu became stronger day by day, his arrival made those who were originally gossiping, even Bai Changsong and Bai Chunlan, shut up when such brothers and sisters were like this.
Bai Qiansong actually understood that these people were indeed full of rumors. But if it were another family, Bai Qian was their daughter. It is estimated that these people would not say anything and would be complacent.
Didn't you see that after the toast, the tables began to toast each other, and many people, under the pretext of knowing Bai Xi, flattered Yang Dongxu and said a few words?
In the final analysis, the reason for this is that Yang Dongxu is strong enough, and you can get meat if you can get close to him. Although the social atmosphere is still traditional, it is not the time to laugh at the poor and not laugh at prostitutes.
But people in the upper class have always focused on interests, and face can be put aside at will. Then through clothing, position, place of residence and other means, they package themselves to be high-end, so that ordinary people and those who don't know them feel that he is just a high-end person. But peel off the skin, these people are darker than those grassroots workers who do dirty and tiring work.
After the birthday party, Li Yihang and a few others found a place to sit for a while. This time Bai Xi didn't come with her. After all, there are still some things to pay attention to, but Bai An followed.
This is Bai An's first time to attend such a party, and he seems a little out of place. Especially after getting along for a while, he found that he might not be suitable for Li Yihang's circle and couldn't fit in. Li Yihang and others also noticed this, so everyone drank tea and chatted together without saying anything else.
After the party was over, Li Yihang and others left, and Yang Dongxu called Bai'an, who looked a little reluctant, into the car.
"The real estate project is good. Compared with sharing money with others, I think it's better for you to do it alone, set up a reliable construction company, and get all the qualifications you need. At least according to the domestic real estate laws, there are no violations.
Then get the land in the community, don't do any big projects at first, do a few million first. After you have experience, you can slowly make it bigger, so that you can have the help of your sister.
It's not a big problem to make a name for yourself, but if you want to do this business, you have to make a statement in advance. You can make money according to the routines of other companies, but you can't tamper with the quality of the house, let alone get a pre-sale house and then walk away."
"It seems that you can make money by doing this, and you can even turn things around after a few operations, and finally go bankrupt without any responsibility. But this is actually overdrawing your credit, maybe you are spending a lot of money now Cool.
But when one day you want to go one step further, or when you have a chance to go one step further, the things you did before will become a deadly handle.
Don't listen to what I said on the surface and feel that you are very good. Is the Du family good? Didn't they fail in the Jinyuan project?
So if you want to do better and last longer than others, don't think that you are the only smart person in the world, and you think you are invincible after playing those tricks and finally getting out of it.
Others are willing to follow you and praise you. That's because they want to share money from you, not because you are so domineering. One day you can't share money with them, or even if the truth comes out and you have to go to jail. These people are the first to hand over the knife, so be clear, don't rush to the front when you are hot-headed. "
