Chapter 394: The Legend of Zhen Huan: The Queen's Wife Will Play a Villain
There is an important meeting in the conference room of Datang Entertainment today.
Ye Zhengfang presided over the event personally, and senior executives of Datang Entertainment and some important actors gathered here.
"Everyone, have you read the script these days? What do you think?"
Ye Zhengfang asked seriously. She had read the script from beginning to end over the past few days and was very satisfied with it. However, she still needed to see what the people below her thought.
"Mr. Ye, who wrote this script? I think it's excellent..."
Zheng Xiao, the leading director of Datang Entertainment, said this seriously. He had read the script from beginning to end over the past few days and was so excited that he couldn't even sleep.
It's so good. I haven't seen such an excellent script in a long time.
"Boss Ye, let's shoot. We have confidence in this film..."
Another senior executive said seriously. Hearing what everyone said, Ye Zhengfang laughed.
"This script was given to me by Su Yang. So this time, this drama will be co-produced by Datang Entertainment and Qingyao Media. Director Zheng, you will be the single-handed director of this drama. As for the various roles in the drama, we still need to carefully screen them, and the artists under our company should also take a look to see what kind of roles they are suitable for. However, there is one role that Qingyao Media has already reserved. Qin Shuyao will join this drama..."
Ye Zhengfang's words made everyone's eyes light up. Su Yang's script, looking at this script, many people felt happy.
Su Yang is very famous now. His talent is the epitome of a good drama. Although Su Yang is not involved in the filming of this drama, he wrote the script.
And Qin Shuyao also came to participate in this drama, which shows her strong appeal.
"Mr. Ye, if we can get Su Yang to play a role, even just a cameo, then the show will definitely have high ratings..."
Zheng Xiao said with a smile, and everyone nodded. Indeed, Su Yang's appeal is too strong now.
"Haha, I'll do my best then. Playing an important role is probably difficult, but a cameo shouldn't be too difficult. Director Su is very busy right now..."
Ye Zhengfang knew that Su Yang was very busy. Right now, Su Yang was busy filming Operation Mekong, a blockbuster that was enough to keep him busy.
But a cameo appearance is still possible. At worst, we can just ask Tang Qing to come forward. It's not difficult to do.
A big drama, this is a big drama. Ye Zhengfang is also very optimistic about this drama. After this big drama is broadcast, maybe Datang Entertainment will recover. Su Yang is a fat sheep and must be caught.
As for who made more money, Qingyao Media or Datang Entertainment, Ye Zhengfang didn't really care. After all, even if she lost money, it wouldn't affect anyone else. It was a family business, so Tang Qing didn't really care. After all, Qingyao Media made money so easily.
Everyone agreed, and the project was officially launched.
This is a big drama, and according to the plan, this big drama will be filmed in 100 episodes.
A 100-episode palace drama was something I had never heard of before. Ye Zhengfang was also shocked when she got the script; it was so thick.
The most surprising thing was that Su Yang gave him the script in such a short time, it was obvious that he had been writing it for a long time.
But for Su Yang, it was just a matter of going through the script and optimizing it.
"Empresses in the Palace" was the script Su Yang had taken out. The script redeemed in the system was the uncut version of 90 episodes.
However, Su Yang further optimized the plot. After all, Su Yang's knowledge base is very vast. This vast knowledge base allowed Su Yang to optimize the details of the plot. This made the plot more rigorous and exciting. Therefore, after the optimization of the entire drama, it was directly turned into 100 episodes.
The whole story has become more exciting. The drama was already very good, and now that it has been optimized, Su Yang believes that it will definitely be liked by many people.
Qin Shuyao also read the script. After reading it, Qin Shuyao fell in love with the role of Concubine Hua and insisted on taking on the challenge.
So now the role of Concubine Hua has been confirmed, and as for the remaining roles, they still need to be selected slowly.
Qingyao Media and Datang Entertainment were busy. The production budget for this drama was incredibly high.
The production budget for each episode is 5 million RMB, and the total budget for the entire show is 500 million RMB.
Not only that, of the 500 million yuan budget, the actors' salaries must not exceed 40%.
That means a maximum of 200 million yuan will be spent on actors, and the remaining 300 million yuan must be invested in production. The purpose is to make this drama even better.
"A powerful alliance has been established. Datang Entertainment has approved the new drama "The Legend of Zhen Huan," with an investment of 500 million RMB. The screenwriter is Su Yang..."
"Qin Shuyao joins 'The Legend of Zhen Huan', Datang Entertainment's new drama revealed..."
"Datang Entertainment teamed up with Su Yang, and Qingyao Media and Datang Entertainment jointly produced "The Legend of Zhen Huan"..."
In early September, a piece of explosive news broke out, which once again caused heated discussions across the Internet.
Datang Entertainment and Qingyao Media have joined forces to invest 500 million yuan to shoot a palace fighting drama.
The most amazing thing is that this script was actually written by Su Yang. Su Yang writes palace fighting dramas. How can this style be so weird? Damn, Su Yang knows palace fighting.
But thinking about what Su Yang did, it didn't seem surprising. Su Yang knew so much, he should be able to act in palace fighting dramas too.
"Hahaha, I'm looking forward to it. Brother Yang's palace fighting drama is amazing..."
"Fuck, did Brother Yang write himself as the emperor..."
"Brother Yang, Brother Yang, what else can't you do? But is there still a market for palace fighting dramas now?"
"Wait until the filming is finished before watching, looking forward to it..."
"I hope I don't have to wait too long, there's a shortage of dramas..."
Netizens started discussing it heatedly, especially after seeing the cast, many people were looking forward to it.
All the main artists from the two major companies appeared in this drama.
Almost all the actors from Datang Entertainment are out, and these actors are all very famous and have great acting skills.
Qingyao Media also sent out all its main forces, led by Qin Shuyao, and Yang Mengmeng, Tang Tianyi, Chen Xi, and Qin Shumo all participated in the filming of this drama.
This is simply an all-star lineup, with Su Yang as the script, Zheng Xiao as the director, and an investment of 500 million yuan.
Any one of them you pick out is full of gimmicks.
Ambition. After seeing this news, people in the industry saw the ambition of this drama.
With such a strong lineup, this drama must be good. Otherwise, Qingyao Media and Datang Entertainment wouldn't make such a big move.
Everyone can see Su Yang's talent, and now no one dares to bet on Su Yang's talent.
“Oh, no way to play!”
Many people couldn't help but sigh that Qingyao Media was getting bigger and bigger. Su Yang's powerful weapon was not limited to Qingyao Media itself.
If this drama becomes a huge success, I'm afraid that more people will come to Su Yang to collaborate on his scripts and stories in the future.
This news also made other film and television companies interested. If Datang Entertainment can cooperate with Qingyao Media, then so can they.
We can all make money together. At worst, Qingyao Media can make more and I can make less, but as long as there is money to be made, it's fine.
Tang Qing and Qin Shuyao came to visit the set of "Operation Mekong" today.
"Oh, my phone has been ringing off the hook these past few days. Many companies have come looking for cooperation. Su Yang, what do you think?"
Tang Qing looked at Su Yang and asked. Ever since the news of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" broke out, Tang Qing's phone has been flooded with calls.
Cooperation is all about seeking cooperation.
In their view, "Empresses in the Palace" was a gesture of goodwill from Su Yang. If Qingyao Media was willing to cooperate with Datang Entertainment, then they could also cooperate with other companies.
In the past, Su Yang had offended many people. Now, if cooperation can make money, the hatred between them will disappear, and interests are eternal.
"Cooperation is no problem. We at Qingyao Media didn't intend to have our cake and eat it too. We can make money together. We at Qingyao Media can also take advantage of the cooperation to expand our network of contacts."
Su Yang said seriously. If the company wants to grow, it must go the way of win-win cooperation. You can't eat the cake alone. Eating it alone will make people jealous.
Most importantly, Su Yang felt that he had enough scripts, but he was too busy to handle them all. So, he decided to give some of them to others to shoot, and he would only shoot the most classic works in the future.
"I think so too. However, any cooperation must follow the rules of our Qingyao Media. We can also set some rules for them. Those who are willing to abide by the rules can play with them. Those who don't want to abide by the rules can go wherever they want..."
Tang Qing smiled and said, "Rules. There are many unknown rules in the industry. Sometimes these rules may be put forward by a company, or they may be the intention of a big boss."
Anyway, many times, if you break this rule, at best you'll have a difficult life, and at worst you'll be banned from the industry. This is the entertainment industry, it's more complicated than you think.
Now, Qingyao Media is qualified to set its own rules. Through cooperation, it can directly set its own rules. Over time, Qingyao Media's influence will greatly increase. For Su Yang, less is more. The more people are bound by the community of interests, the safer Su Yang will be.
"You can discuss how to cooperate. As I said before, I'm responsible for the production, and you're responsible for the company. I'll send you some scripts later, and you can decide how to cooperate."
Su Yang was too lazy to deal with these matters, as they were too troublesome. He decided to let Tang Qing handle them and just focus on the work.
"OK……"
Tang Qing nodded, Qin Shuyao smiled slightly, but didn't care about it.
Qin Shuyao didn't have the energy to care about the company's affairs. She just needed to do her own thing. For Qin Shuyao, the entertainment industry was just a hobby.
My main responsibility is to raise my four children, accompany them as they grow up, and nurture them. Once they grow up, I can retire. Anyway, I have more money than I can spend now, so why work so hard? Besides, Su Yang is also working hard now. The division of labor in the family is clear, with the man working outside and the woman working inside. How wonderful is that?
