Chapter 567 Group Record

How popular is "Struggle"?

After the TV series was broadcast, when wearing a Polo shirt, you must stand up the collar like Lu Tao, and this became a fashion;

In addition, the velvet sports suit in the play has become Taobao's best-selling item of the year!

The price of a necklace worn by Zeng Li, who plays Charlene, soared from 600 yuan to more than 2,000 yuan on Taobao!

In addition, the second edition of the novel of the same name printed 500,000 copies and sold out in just half a month, so another 800,000 copies were printed...

In fact, the success of "Struggle" mainly lies in character creation!

The vivid and full characters transcend the absurd plot and resonate with young audiences.

The magnanimous imperfection, stupid high-spiritedness and reckless optimism belong to that era, and also belong to the youth born in the 1980s!

In addition, Shen Xudong feels that the success of "Struggle" is mainly due to the right time - in 2007, whether it is the pursuit of wealth or self-realization, young people still have confidence that they are worth fighting for - as long as we keep fighting, maybe One day the dream will come true.

In a few years, if you watch "Struggle" again, it will be impossible to be immersed in it!

They would only say, ‘Cheating on my father, cheating on me, using my ex-girlfriend, having no sense of responsibility, living in a big house, driving an Audi, and shouting: This is not the life I want! ’

Or 'The person who really needs to struggle was caught committing suicide in the first episode because of cheating! ’

But no matter what, it is an indisputable fact that "Struggle" is popular.

The actors also exploded in popularity.

…

Guo Fan, Su Lun, and Yin Ruoxin were all responsible for filming and recording the film.

It's called "The Birth of a Fame". According to Shen Xudong's wishes, I will shoot as much as possible, and then edit it into a two-hour record. Then I will sell audio and video copyrights, Internet copyrights, etc...

With the lineup of "Famous", it is said that they can earn at least 5 million!

In fact, Shen Xudong is still very restrained - there is no advertising placement in "Famous"...

The red wine and drinks they drank, including the pens used by Li Jiahui, could be branded, but Shen Xudong did not do this!

Of course, the pre-roll advertising revenue is 18 million - 8 pre-roll ads, each of 30 seconds, and the revenue is 18 million.

Oh, pre-roll advertisements refer to advertisements that appear with movies. Mainland theaters generally limit the duration of pre-roll advertisements to 5 minutes. Generally speaking, it must be a movie that the brand is optimistic about - among which, roughly 30% of the advertising profit must be allocated to the theater...

Because pre-show advertisements are pre-screening advertisements, and the broadcast channels are concentrated in theaters, then if you don’t give the theaters a portion of the revenue, why should they broadcast advertisements?

Back to the topic, Guo Fan and the others are the...recorders of the crew?

However, Shen Xudong often arranges for them to do things - place props, notify the project team leader, etc.

We will also introduce the main actors, including guest actors and directors, to let them know each other...

On this day, after finishing work, Guo Fan felt a little sleepy. He packed up his things and walked towards the crew's car - the car would take him back to the hotel!

After a busy day of work, although the body is not very tired, the spirit is extremely exhausted...

The work of the crew is very tedious and very intense - 996 is a trivial matter, but 007 is normal. If the work can be finished at 10 o'clock in the evening, the filming is considered a success!

The same goes for "Famous"...

I really joined the team, especially the person in charge behind the scenes. They were working 24 hours a day to prepare for the war. They didn’t dare to get sick. They slept up to 3.4 hours a day on average!

The same goes for Shen Xudong. Therefore, when Guo Fan saw Shen Xudong who was sleeping on a chair in the front row of the car, he got used to it - without saying hello, he sat back in his seat.

I fell asleep. At 11 o'clock in the evening, I arrived at the hotel, said good night to a group of people, and then returned to my room.

I took a shower, wiped it briefly, looked at the time, and saw that it was not yet 12 o'clock, so I simply sat at the table, took out a pen and notebook, and planned to write some work diary.

He doesn't write every day, but whenever he has a new opinion about the movie, he will always write it down in time. He records not only the movie, but also the crew's experiences.

Mainly Shen Xudong...

After all, Guo Fan is planning to be a director, and he plans to steal from Shen Xudong!

Shen Xudong himself feels that he is quite... weak and not a good director, but in Guo Fan's opinion, Shen Xudong is simply the most professional director he has ever seen.

"For the first time, Director Shen had different opinions with Jiang Wen. I thought they would argue, but... it didn't happen. Director Shen directly followed Teacher Jiang Wen's request and left the director's chair..."

"I felt he was very weak... but half an hour later, Director Shen came back and told Jiang Wen directly, 'Today's shooting task is eight, and we don't have time for you to do experiments...' The attitude was very tough... In the end, Jiang Wen backed down... "

"Director Shen pays more attention to the script. He does not allow actors to change words on the spot. He can improvise, but the general meaning must match the lines he wrote!"

"However, Director Shen still has a good temper. I have never seen him lose his temper!"

…

Just as it happened, Jing Tian was also asking Shen Xudong this question - the director's temper!

But Jingtian likes to hear stories, so let’s tell them!

After making a cup of tea, Shen Xudong said: "Not every director has a bad temper, but in most cases, you cannot be soft-hearted. If you are soft-hearted and easy to talk, you are asking for trouble for yourself. If you don't finish the filming in the end, the crew will directly By disbanding, you are actually harming them!"

"During the filming of "Eat Drink Man and Woman", Li Min got angry because he didn't prepare enough ingredients... which affected the filming progress. Because of the problem of several tables of dishes, it was delayed for at least one day. During this period, the cast and crew's wages, equipment rental fees , venue fees, enough to buy several truckloads of food... This is the props team’s mistake!”

"Ning Hao, you have collaborated with him on an MV. He looks quite honest, right? I remember during the early preparations for "Stone", Brother Dao and the others stayed in that hotel. After the props team whitewashed the walls, the walls were not completely dry and looked old. The effect is not ideal.

Ning Hao told the lighting team to bring lights to bake that night, but the people who arranged it were afraid of the cold and were too lazy to go. The next day, when Ning Hao entered the set and saw the state of the walls, he not only cursed people, but even beat them with the lights. "

"On a set, where time is money, only tyrant dominance is the most efficient operating mode..."

"Then why don't you curse?"

"Why am I scolding people... Our crew is very professional, and the lighting and photography are the best in the industry... If they don't do a good job... I will just replace them..."

Speaking of this, Shen Xudong yawned: "Do you have anything else?"

Jing Tian quickly asked: "Director, do you think there is anything else I haven't done well?"

"…Why do you ask?"

"I see that you often praise other actors...and rarely praise me..."

"Didn't I praise you?" Shen Xudong thought carefully, then shook his head: "I must have praised you..."

"...You only complimented me on my good looks..."

"Your character just needs to be good-looking!"
