The position of producer is very common in Hong Kong. In TV dramas, the producer is basically the largest one. This happens even in movies. The most typical example is A Chinese Ghost Story. The director is obviously Cheng Xiaodong, but when everyone mentions this movie, Hanging are the works of producer Xu Laoguai.

However, this position was rarely held in mainland film and television circles before, and its functions and responsibilities were basically divided between directors and producers.

Wu Yuchen thought for a while, looked at Kang Honglei and asked, Director Kang, what do you think?

The reason why he asked this was because if his name was put on it, it would certainly have a diversion effect, but at the same time it would also be dividing the director Kang Honglei's credit and reputation. After the TV series becomes popular, the outside world will probably attribute part of the credit and fame for the TV series' success to Wu Yuchen.

Although based on Kang Honglei's old scalper's character, he most likely wouldn't care, Wu Yuchen still wanted to ask him what he thought.

Kang Honglei smiled honestly: Director Wu, I have no objection at all, as long as it's good for our TV series!

Wu Yuchen smiled and said the most practical thing directly: Our TV series is successful, and the next new drama will give Director Kang a salary increase.

In his previous life, Kang Honglei filmed so many good dramas but his income did not increase. Part of the reason was that he followed Zhang DaHu. Most of the success of the drama was taken away by Zhang DaHu, the producer.

Wu Yuchen will not squeeze hard-working and good employees. Those who are capable will be rewarded, and that should be the case.

The alley is narrow and long. There are walls made of broken bricks on both sides. The south wall rarely gets sunlight and is covered with a thin layer of green moss. There are a few faint silver rails crawling over the high places. Walk in. It feels slightly more spacious, but the walls on both sides are more broken.

Wu Yuchen is currently walking among the flowers described by Mr. Lao She. He is not here to savor the literary atmosphere, but to see how the soundtrack for another TV series Love to the End is progressing.

Wu Yuchen was walking when he met an acquaintance at the corner.

Director Wu! Gao Yuanyuan shouted in surprise.

Wu Yuchen looked at Gao Yuanyuan in front of him, who was wearing white short-sleeved shirts, blue jeans and white shoes, and couldn't help but smile: Yuanyuan, I haven't seen you for a while, and she looks beautiful again!

Hearing this, Gao Yuanyuan felt happy and shy at the same time: No way, Director Wu, you would praise me~

Wu Yuchen smiled: No need to call me Director Wu, I'm not much older than you, just call me by my name in private.

Wu, Yuchen...brother~

Gao Yuanyuan called softly, which made Wu Yuchen laugh.

Gao Yuanyuan came close to Wu Yuchen and walked side by side with him. She couldn't help but want to secretly glance at the profile of the man next to her.

Gao Yuanyuan has admired those talented people since she was a child, and the Wu Yuchen in front of her completely fits the girl's fantasy appearance. He is good-looking and talented. When he walks next to him, he smells a fresh fragrance and looks good-looking. The lower jaw and the high bridge of the nose can't help but feel like deers.

Wu Yuchen asked as he walked: Yuanyuan, how do you feel about filming this time?

Gao Yuanyuan let out a sigh, feeling guilty that someone had caught him peeping. After realizing it, he breathed a sigh of relief: It feels good. I was always worried that I wouldn't be able to perform well, but after joining the group, everyone was very supportive. Tolerate me.”

Hey, both directors are also newcomers. They have to thank you for tolerating them! Wu Yuchen curled his lips and said with slight dissatisfaction.

The two directors of Will Love, Ma Liwen and Zhang Yibai, are both new directors. This is a 20-episode urban drama without any big scenes. It took 70 or 80 days to shoot, and the budget was exceeded. Wu Yuchen asked the company to give another 500,000 yuan to the crew. He bluntly said that this included all the money for post-production, and there was no more money.

Gao Yuanyuan covered her mouth and smiled after hearing Wu Yuchen's complaints. She thought about how the two directors often quarreled at the beginning of the set. They and the actors didn't know who to listen to, and no one told them the drama. , just listening to the director's rebuttals and understanding of the character's heart and emotions.

Gao Yuanyuan was originally under a lot of psychological pressure when she joined the cast, but the entire cast, from the director to the actors, were all newcomers, so she just had to play her true self, and she gradually relaxed.

Hey, Yuanyuan, are you still in high school? Wu Yuchen asked suddenly.

Gao Yuanyuan nodded: Yes, Haidian Tourism Vocational High School.

Gao Yuanyuan's father and brother are both top students in Shuimu Aerospace, but she herself is a scumbag in elementary school and has no big ambitions. She just wants to be a secretary.

According to the development of her previous life, she will go to college for four years in the next four years. She still majors in secretarial studies, and even went to get the intermediate secretarial certificate. Anyway, what she studied has nothing to do with acting. She will wait until she is in her senior year to film The Legend of Heaven and Sword of the Dragon. Determined to pursue the career of an actor.

But later he got involved in the small underworld of literary films. Unfortunately, he had no professional training and his talent was mediocre. At the age of 39, he finally issued an article admitting that he accepted that he was a mediocre actor.

Wu Yuchen looked at the bright-eyed, white-teethed, pure and lovely Gao Yuanyuan and felt deeply regretful. This was a complete waste of talent!

You said that you are so beautiful and have never studied acting. Why do you want to be an acting star and act in literary films? Wouldn’t it be nice to make a big vase?

But this is how it is in the Chinese-speaking world these days. Any actor who is ambitious wants to be recognized in awards. Look at Fan Bingbing, in order to win awards, didn't he also act in Apple and Guanyin Mountain?

Thinking of this, Wu Yuchen said to him:

Yuanyuan, you are actually quite suitable to pursue the career of an actor, otherwise it would be a pity. Go back and think about it carefully. It will be very good for you to go to a professional school such as Yangzhou Opera and Beijing Film Academy in college.

Gao Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment. She had always regarded acting as a hobby. After all, being able to make money by filming commercials and acting at this age was also a very fulfilling thing for her, but she had never thought about it seriously. I want to be an actor in the future and follow this path.

Gao Yuanyuan hesitated and said: But, I don't know anything. Others are versatile and can sing and dance. I am tone-deaf and have no talent, so I feel that I am very mediocre...

Wu Yuchen was a little speechless looking at her face. Don't you know she is so beautiful? You are such a mediocre ghost!

Wu Yuchen chuckled and said: Yuanyuan, don't think it's so difficult to be an actor. The admission standards for Beijing Film and Television Film and Television are not that high. Let me tell you about the male protagonist of the movie I just filmed. A man named Liu Ye was interviewed. Nothing will happen when...

Wu Yuchen told Gao Yuanyuan the examples of Liu Ye and Huang Xiaoming's re-examination. Gao Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel confident in his heart. If these people can be admitted, it seems that she can go to her?

How about choosing between Yangxi Opera and Jingying Film?

Wu Yuchen said directly: Come to Jingying. If you are willing, I can help you speak. Be prepared when the time comes. It won't be a big problem.

When Gao Yuanyuan heard this, a warm current surged through his heart, thinking that he was so good to her?

Feeling happy in her heart, Gao Yuanyuan's eyebrows curved: Thank you, brother Wu Yuchen!

While the two were chatting and laughing, they had already entered Baihua Recording Studio.

Zhang Yibai and Ma Liwen saw Wu Yuchen and hurriedly greeted him: Director Wu.

Wu Yuchen nodded at the two of them, and then asked: How is the soundtrack?

Zhang Yibai introduced: I found Xiao Ke and have already made several songs. Among them, the theme song is Waiting for You to Love Me. Teacher Chen Ming just recorded it. Would you like to listen to it?

Wu Yuchen felt much relieved after hearing this. It has to be said that Zhang Yibai has accumulated a lot of connections in the music industry by filming music videos for others in the past few years. During the filming, he was able to get singers such as Tian Zhen and Chen Ming to guest star. Now the music production has also hired Xiao Ke.

The original music of Carry Love to the End is really of high quality. Waiting for You to Love Me was not only popular in the streets at that time, but also became popular again after it was covered by Dr. Chen and Wang Fei. .

There are also several songs such as Looking Away, Who, What Else Can I Do, etc., which are also great songs.

After listening to the soundtrack, Wu Yuchen had a smile on his face. A golden song plays a great role in promoting the TV series. It can not only stimulate the audience's emotions and sense of involvement, but also promote publicity and promotion.

The soundtrack is good. Let me know when you finish the show, and I'll take a look at it then. If the effect is good, I'll try to find you a TV station where it can be broadcast to the stars.

Both of them looked happy when they heard this: Thank you, Director Wu!

Director Wu! A clear voice sounded from behind. Wu Yuchen looked and saw that it was Li Jian and Dou Peng.

Li Jian walked up to Wu Yuchen in a few steps: Director Wu, are you here to see our recording?

Wu Yuchen smiled when he saw this. It was a coincidence that he met Li Jian and Dou Peng to record If Love Has God's Will.

Li Jian had been preparing for this song for several months and had recorded several versions, but Wu Yuchen felt that it still lacked some emotion. I specially showed him the script of If Love Is Divine Will and also showed Li Jian a rough cut of the movie version, which moved him very much. Now Li Jian comes back to record again.

Naturally, Wu Yuchen was happy to take this opportunity to listen to the effect of Li Jian's singing now.

Gao Yuanyuan also followed, and soon the warm and beautiful melody sounded in her ears, and Li Jian's tender singing voice moved people's hearts in its gentle and low tone.

When we were young, we thought,

Those who love each other can live forever

How many times in a trance

It seems like I can see you in the sea of ​​people.”

The beautiful singing made Gao Yuanyuan fall into it involuntarily, as if he had seen a pair of childhood sweethearts. The helplessness and sadness at fate when they were forced to separate and look at each other made Gao Yuanyuan, who was originally a literary youth, couldn't help but feel a sore nose and eyes. Everyone started to get excited.

After finishing the song, Wu Yuchen nodded with satisfaction. Now Li Jian is much better at the emotion of the song than before, as if he sang a poignant love poem. The meaning of regret of love is all in his gentle and graceful words. In the song.

He turned around and found that Gao Yuanyuan beside him was wiping away tears, thinking that she was really a sentimental and weak girl!

Yuanyuan, are you okay?

Gao Yuanyuan shook his head gently: I'm sorry, this song is so good, I can't control it...

Wu Yuchen handed him a handkerchief. Seeing Li Jian coming over at this time, he smiled and said:

Li Jian, look at it, he made my little sister cry!

Li Jian originally wanted to ask Wu Yuchen if he had any other opinions, but upon seeing this, he felt that Wu Yuchen should be satisfied, so he smiled and said:

Director Wu, it's not my fault. If you do, you have to blame yourself. You composed the lyrics and music!

Hearing this, Gao Yuanyuan's heart suddenly trembled. He turned to look at Wu Yuchen, his eyes twinkling with light. It turned out that such beautiful lyrics and music were actually written by him!

The emotions brought about by the song just now turned into a feeling of admiration, poured into Wu Yuchen...

In the evening, in a brand new Toyota Crown car, Wu Yuchen, Cai Yinong and a middle-aged man got out of the car with a smile and walked to the hotel.

After Wu Yuchen invested more than 30 million yuan from the Changhong stock sale into the company, now Miracle Film and Television naturally has no shortage of money, so he bought two Toyota Crowns to add to the facade. The Toyota Crown priced at RMB 500,000 to RMB 600,000 this year is already a luxury car, and the next step up is the RMB 2 million Tiger Head, which is the Mercedes-Benz S600.

However, Wu Yuchen doesn't think it's necessary. Two million is enough to make a movie. The most important thing for him is his name. The Toyota Crown is almost enough for reception, as long as it's not shabby.

Naturally, it was important to ask Wu Yuchen to accompany him in person this time. The deputy director of CCTV's film purchasing department had real power, just to talk about The Passionate Years.

After three drinks, Director Liu patted his chest and said:

Director Wu, let me tell you the truth, even if it's because of your reputation, we at CCTV would be willing to buy this drama with our eyes closed!

Thanks to Director Liu for your kindness!

Wu Yuchen smiled. He would not take such words seriously at the wine table. His name must be useful, otherwise the deputy director of the film purchasing department would not be allowed to take action personally, but it would not play a decisive role.

Naturally, people are willing to buy it because after watching the TV series in the past two days, they think the quality is good. Otherwise, if the quality is rubbish, even if it bears Wu Yuchen's name, it may cause gossip after getting it back.

And there will probably be some benefits in this deal, like public relations!

Of course, Wu Yuchen doesn't need to worry about this, let Cai Yinong handle it.

After a while, Wu Yuchen asked: Director Liu, I would like to ask, after we buy this film, how long will it take for it to be broadcast?

Well, I guess I have to arrange it until next year.

Wu Yuchen frowned when he heard this, and then asked: Director Liu, can't it be broadcast this year?

Director Liu immediately shook his head: No, Director Wu, our TV station is different from the movie theater. The TV series to be broadcast are all scheduled in advance. Unless there is something wrong with this show, these are scheduled The schedules are generally not randomly adjusted.

Wu Yuchen actually understood the meaning behind this. Each TV series has its own relationship, and many CCTV dramas are invested by them themselves. Such in-house dramas must be ranked ahead of outsourced dramas. The purchase of Passionate Years may also be treated as a godson.

This is not what he is worried about. What he is thinking about is CCTV's new year's drama Water Margin next year!

It goes without saying how great Water Margin is. If The Years of Passion is arranged to compete with Water Margin, it will probably be crushed. This is not a question of quality.

Even if there is no collision, the first half of next year will basically be enveloped by Water Margin, and The Passionate Years will be greatly affected.

Therefore, Wu Yuchen hopes to release it as soon as possible and make his name famous in the remaining months of this year, so that once it gains momentum, he will not have to worry about being affected by Water Margin again.
