Chapter 302: This still requires the intervention of President Meng
"Are you back?"
"Yes."
"Is filming fun?"
"Not bad..."
Yang Chaoyue nodded, then shook her head, with an embarrassed expression on her delicate little face.
Meng Bai was puzzled: "Is this good or bad?"
Yang Chaoyue said with a bitter face: "Filming is fun, but I can't act, and it's a bit boring to be told by the director all the time."
As a pure newbie, she was almost confused and bewildered in the crew. She
didn't know what to do or where to go.
Weak, pitiful, and helpless.
Fortunately, her state just fits the role she played, so she can almost act in her true colors throughout the whole process, and there is nothing to play.
It can only be said that the crew director still has a vision in selecting people, and it is not entirely based on appearance.
But even so, she was scolded many times in the crew.
In other words, the heroine Zhu Xudan knew that she was a person of Huguang, so she paid more attention to her and took care of her, which was a little comforting.
But even though she was scolded, she was still excited about this rare opportunity.
She had watched all kinds of TV series since she was a child, but who would have thought that she would be able to appear on the screen one day.
Looking at the girl in front of him with a happy expression in her memories, Meng Baiqian smiled and said, "It's a rare opportunity, so it's good to experience it."
Experience, no matter good or bad, it's okay to have experienced it.
Anyway, he didn't think this girl really had any acting talent.
But Yang Chaoyue seemed to have other ideas. Seeing Meng Bai was about to go upstairs, she bit her lip and plucked up the courage to say, "Boss Meng, I have something I don't quite understand. I feel that only you can help me. Do you have time?"
After saying that, she seemed to be worried that the other party would not agree, and hurriedly continued, "It can be deducted from my year-end bonus."
"Hey, you do understand equivalent replacement."
Meng Bai laughed, "Are you in a hurry? I'm quite busy during this period."
"No hurry, no hurry, it's okay even if it takes ten days or half a month." Yang Chaoyue shook her hand and showed a puppy-like flattering smile, "When it's convenient for you, you can."
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
Meng Bai responded, but didn't care too much.
How much trouble can a girl of eighteen or nineteen have? There is no need for Boss Meng to take action.
Let Hua Yan talk to her later, and it will probably be solved.
Going upstairs to the project team, Meng Bai asked the person in charge about the review.
As he expected, with the support of Golden Shield Films behind it, "White Night Chase" passed the review without a doubt.
In other words, as long as a TV station buys it, the drama can be broadcast on satellite.
Even if we communicate with the video platform, we can achieve "simultaneous broadcast on TV and the Internet".
Of course, this is only a theoretical situation.
The "golden time ban" for criminal investigation dramas is still there, so even if it is sold to TV stations, it will not be sold at a good price.
Moreover, "simultaneous broadcast on TV and the Internet" will affect the price on the video platform. If the total revenue is calculated, it may not be better than a single online broadcast.
But it is not without benefits. In any case, the TV station's communication strength is still there, and it still has some value for the entire IP.
Another key point is that since it has passed the review and obtained the broadcast license, it means that Arc Light can register "White Night Chase" for major awards.
Especially the "three major awards" in the TV industry, the Golden Eagle is held in even years, and the Magnolia starts in June.
One has to wait until next year, and the other can't catch up.
But the Feitian Award, which represents the official government, is held at the end of each year and the registration ends at the end of October.
So as long as "White Night Chase" can be broadcast before then, it can participate in this year's Feitian Award selection.
Even if it doesn't win an award, getting an award nomination is a breakthrough for online dramas.
Meng Bai told the person in charge of the project department to first ask if there are any TV stations willing to buy it. If there are, check when the schedule is.
If it exceeds the deadline, then it is better to go the route of online broadcasting directly.
Anyway, the award does not stipulate that the broadcasting platform must be a TV station.
——Conference
room of the Radio and Television Planning Institute.
It is still the small conference room where the previous meetings were held.
Hou Hongliang arrived at the venue early. After entering the door, he greeted the heads of several other film and television companies who had already arrived, but his eyes could not help but fall on the name tags on the table in the first row of the venue.
Because it was a small meeting, there were not many people present, and the seats were arranged sparsely.
There were only five name tags on the long table in the center of the first row.
Three of them were the heads of the three major video platforms.
This is reasonable. After all, as the output of online dramas increases, the platform's voice in the entire industry chain is also increasing.
Especially the "three major" of Qiyi TV, Tencent Video and Youku, which almost occupy more than 90% of the online film and television audience group.
Next to the video platform is Huace Film and Television. As the leader in the field of domestic film and television dramas, Huace's status and influence are unquestionable.
As for the last remaining signature, it is neither Noon Sunshine, which has repeatedly produced hits in recent years, nor the large-scale Ciwen Media, nor the Lemon Film and Television, which has been thriving in recent years with the support of Oriental Satellite TV. The
"three major" represents the platform, and Huace represents TV series.
The one that can represent online dramas is undoubtedly Arclight Film and Television.
Hou Hongliang glanced and retracted his gaze.
Although the position may not necessarily represent the status of the industry, it can more or less reflect some corresponding relationships.
At least, with so many company representatives on the scene, no one has any questions about this arrangement, which means that in everyone's mind, Arclight is worthy of sitting here.
It's no wonder that among today's online drama audiences, it is almost impossible to find a few who have never seen Arclight's works.
Sitting down in the second row, Hou Hongliang couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Who would have thought that a young man who was just a small screenwriter a few years ago would have created such a huge force in just a few years.
Speaking of which, Noon Sunshine has been trying the field of online dramas in recent years, filming "He's Coming, Please Close Your Eyes" and "If the Snail Has Love".
Like most of the new online drama teams, they also followed the market established by Arc Light and started from the field of "suspense criminal investigation".
However, unlike its performance in the field of TV dramas, the two online dramas of Noon Sunshine performed mediocrely.
Although the production still maintains the same high standard as before, the audience's evaluation and response are very general.
The final reputation and results are completely sorry for the brand of Noon Sunshine.
In fact, their company has adjusted its development strategy internally. Continue to focus on the field of TV dramas and suspend the development of online dramas.
Although there are some sighs, Hou Hongliang himself has to admit that at least in the field of online dramas, they are indeed not as good as Arc Light.
Just as he was sighing, he suddenly heard a noise. He looked up and saw that it was Meng Bai who arrived.
Huguang has cooperated with many companies in recent years, and has established many personal connections, so many people at the scene are greeting him.
After exchanging pleasantries, Meng Bai walked over looking at the table sign and happened to see Hou Hongliang not far away.
"Mr. Hou, you are here so early." Meng Bai greeted.
"Haha, I know that the traffic jam in northern Beijing is serious, so I set out early on purpose." Hou Hongliang also smiled and said politely.
Although they have not cooperated since "The Pretender", they are more or less familiar with each other.
After chatting casually for a few words, Meng Bai said, "I heard that Noon has recently launched a new costume drama called "Do You Know?" "
"There is such a project, and it is still in preparation." Hou Hongliang did not hide the fact, "Why, do you have any recommended actors?"
Meng Bai asked on behalf of Song Zhi. He had previously told this girl that he wanted to shoot a spy war drama, but in the end, he didn't use her after he had eaten all the food.
There are no suitable projects on Huguang's side. It happened that I saw Hou Hongliang today, so I asked by the way.
