Chapter 105 With This Young Phoenix Helping Me, Why Should I Worry About Not Accomplishing Great Things?
On September 4, the crew of "Country Love" finished everything and started filming in a small village called Xiangyashan in the northeast.
Pu Jie also received the 200,000 yuan advance for screenwriters in the contract.
He took out 100,000 yuan and sent it to Wang Jin and Zhang Wei, 50,000 yuan each, and the remaining 100,000 yuan would be paid after the filming was completed.
Pu Jie used to hate being taken advantage of by middlemen.
Now, he has become what he hates.
Sigh that things are unpredictable;
Sigh again that it smells so good.
Next, if nothing unexpected happens, he will not go to this crew, and Wang Jin and Zhang Wei will follow him to the end.
On the other side.
The post-production of "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King" is almost done, and now the promotion is being planned.
However, due to the pursuit of excellence during the filming, the current promotion funds are insufficient, and Wei Fan is a little uncomfortable. There is not much money left, so he can only go to the Penguin Video platform to see if he can get a few better recommendation positions.
Pu Jie does not agree with Wei Fan's approach.
"Director Wei, who said that you can't do publicity without money? Do you have to go out and make presentations, buy Weibo hot searches, and find celebrities to promote it? Is there no other way that costs less and is more effective?"
"Use your brain and don't limit your thinking. What can really arouse the audience's interest is still interesting content. As long as we find a way to release the interesting content in our drama, we can naturally attract the audience. Do you play Douyin?"
Wei Fan was a little confused on the other end of the computer: "Play it. But I don't have many fans personally, and it costs a lot of money to buy advertisements from other big Vs."
Pu Jie: "It's small, the pattern is small, why buy it? If you buy advertisements, the audience will subconsciously resist, and the effect will definitely not be good. Why don't we make an advertisement that can go viral and let Douyin's algorithm mechanism help us push it."
"Huh?"
"I envy you for not being brainwashed by the Dragon King's crooked mouth. Just listen to me."
After a while, Wei Fan stared blankly: "Is this possible?"
"It must be possible!"
On the other side of Bigan, the crew of "The Man from Earth" has also been formed and a venue has been found, and they can shoot at any time.
Because of the script, there are very few actors.
Probably the male protagonist and his 7 supporting actors.
Every time the male protagonist says something, there is always someone who jumps out to refute him, and then is slapped in the face by the protagonist's profound knowledge and insights.
The emotions of the crowd are the same as in the Dragon King article.
First there is ridicule, then suspicion, shock, struggle, awakening, and admiration!
The initial states of these 7 people are different. Some start with ridicule, some start with suspicion, and some are directly shocked.
By the way, the female teacher who has a crush on the protagonist has never come down since she started admiring.
From the perspective of writing online articles, multiple characters, multiple levels, and strong emotional expressions make the story conflict full and it is very easy to mobilize the emotions of readers.
Pu Jie's first Dragon King suffered from this aspect!
The emotional expression is too strong.
No skills, all emotions!
It evoked the resonance of new media readers, especially social animals, who were almost crying.
I also want to flip the table and teach the boss a lesson!
I also want to take out a warehouse of luxury cars and give the gold-digger a wake-up call! A wake-up call on the face! A wake-up call on the mouth!
I want to have the skills and coolness of killing one person in ten steps and leaving no trace in a thousand miles!
It's so cool!
Pu Jie referred to his experience of watching movies in his previous life and the methods of mobilizing emotions in this regard, and designed a Chinese version of "The Man from Earth". After Wang Xiang's polishing, the biggest problem - writing style, has been completely solved.
Therefore, Bi Gan is very confident in filming, even more than Pu Jie.
Considering that he wants to shoot a low-budget film (poor), he found many second-tier male stars to audition. He doesn't ask for his own traffic, but his dialogue skills must be excellent!
This is a movie driven by dialogue throughout the whole film. The dialogue skills of the male protagonist directly determine the quality of the movie.
Whether it is whining, pretentious, or ups and downs, it all depends on the male actor.
Unfortunately, he has never found a suitable one within his budget.
When they heard that the once talented director Bi Gan was going to make a movie, and the script was signed by the gold medal screenwriter Wang Xiang, some young traffic stars in the circle also wanted to try this opportunity. They made a lot of money from traffic, but there was always a label on them: no works.
They urgently needed a good work to prove that they were more than just a vase.
It didn't matter whether they made money or not. If they became popular, there would naturally be naive sisters who would take the initiative to hand over their meal expenses, pocket money, and their father's well-hidden private money in various ways.
Never doubt the ability of traffic stars to monetize!
Bi Gan couldn't save face and auditioned several times, but they were simply unwatchable.
There was even a male actor named Cai who asked him if he could say "1, 2, 3, 4" instead of lines.
Bi Gan: "???"
If Bi Gan hadn't had a good temper, he would have typed it out directly.
After searching around, Bi Gan didn't find a very suitable one, and then he suddenly received a call from a first-line male star.
Chen Mingdao.
The movie emperor, a powerful actor, in his prime.
"The script is good, I can give it a try."
"What about your salary?"
"It's up to you."
With just three sentences, the male lead actor of the script was decided.
Pu Jie was stunned when he heard such a legendary thing.
"This is really a stroke of luck!"
Bi Gan said excitedly: "Pu Bian's script is still good. It actually attracted Mr. Chen Mingdao and made him willing to reduce his salary to star in it. It's amazing! With Mr. Chen Mingdao joining, this movie will definitely be fine!"
Bi Gan is full of energy.
Pu Jie is even happier. He and Bi Gan signed a profit-sharing contract. He wrote the script and took 10% of the box office share. Naturally, the better the film and the more it sells, the better!
"Hahaha! Dog system! I can still make a lot of money without you. When I finish shooting the film, I will take out all your savings. Go to hell!"
Pu Jie's self-confidence is unprecedentedly inflated. He thinks that if he writes well, he will definitely make a lot of money!
Xia Jiba can become popular even if he writes it. If he writes seriously, he will take off, right?
By the way, write a few scripts and make a fortune by selling them.
"Everything is ready, except that this book fails!"
Pu Jie glanced at the two recommendation messages just sent by the writer's assistant backstage, and he was so angry.
"This dog editor Xiaoxing is arguing with me. Just wait, when I make money and start a company, I will be the first to dig you over and let you stab yourself with a knife every day!"
It's so hateful!
A stumbling block on Pu Jie's road to failure!
Pu Jie looked at the names of the two recommendations this time.
Web version: Strongly recommended by the editor of the homepage.
App: Strongly recommended by the editor of the homepage.
"Okay, the editor is really strong and has no place to vent. He is pushing behind me, right?"
"I really should take you to Changdong City and find a store to give you a good rub!"
Pu Jie complained, but the result had already happened, and he couldn't return the recommendation.
He couldn't even say to the editor: "I don't want to recommend anymore, get out!"
That would be warned by the system.
No way, the website rules.
Pu Jie could only try his best to reduce the negative impact of the recommendation.
Although the money earned from subscriptions is not much, they are all big rats stealing Pu Jie's subsidies!
Big data shows!
The data of the big recommendation was indeed very bad at the beginning.
The last time the number of subscriptions surged was purely accidental. His meaning was misinterpreted by Mr. Liu. Not only did he not dissuade readers, but he also aroused readers' rebellious psychology, so there was a surge.
Fortunately, all of them are gone now.
This time, no one can misinterpret his meaning!
Things will definitely get back on track again!
Since the believer became the operation officer, he has been killing like crazy.
Anyone who dares to say good things about this book will have their posts deleted and banned for 50 years.
Compared with the average reading age of 22 years old at Qidian, the next time you can speak, you may not have much time to speak.
If you argue with others, your blood pressure will rise, and the whole village will have a feast the next day.
The operation officer taunted him crazily and led people to lead the rhythm in the comment area, which made Pu Jie very happy.
"The next week is critical, believers must be strong!"
Pu Jie thought about it.
I recharged 200 yuan of Qidian coins to the followers of Shadow Night Owl and left a message: "Keep up the good work!"
"Hahaha! With this phoenix helping me, the recommendation is nothing, it's good enough if I don't lose my collection!"
Pu Jie thinks this time it's really stable.
It's a bit late today, but there will be more later.
