Chapter 52 Prepare to go crazy

Watching Jiang Cheng's leaving back, Lin Zhibai let out a soft breath.

As the actual boss of Kunpeng Investment, this is an identity that does not need to be disclosed to the public. He has now successfully put on the mask of private equity.

After more than two months.

The second step of Lin Zhibai's plan to fight for the family property has now been officially taken. In the future, he can operate both internally and externally. While developing himself, he will help his family overtly and secretly.

But in the future, I have to reduce the frequency of meeting with Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng is now the Kunpeng investment spokesperson promoted by Lin Zhibai, and will definitely attract widespread attention from the Qinzhou entertainment circle in the future. If the two of them get in touch too frequently, people may find some clues.

It just so happened that there were no classes at school that day.

Lin Zhibai simply went back home to visit his family.

It was already afternoon when I arrived at the villa at home. My father saw Lin Zhibai sitting on a chair in the yard reading a book just after get off work. He couldn't help smiling, and sat down next to his youngest son.

"What are you looking at?"

"Teaching Composition."

Lin Zhibai put down the book in his hand, and read books related to composition when he had nothing to do. Now he is no longer the little white who didn't understand anything.

"I really grew up."

Lin Dong smiled and said, "I have my own job in my freshman year, and I have done it so successfully. It's much better than me as an old man. I didn't know what I was busy with when I was a freshman."

"How is dad doing at work now?" Lin Zhibai asked with concern.

"I'm waiting for news from the production department." Lin Dong said helplessly.

"The production department?"

"Our Shinhwa Production Department often receives some scripts, and those producers will select the scripts they think are valuable and contact the appropriate director to shoot. I have read a few scripts this year, but I am not particularly satisfied, so I want to Let’s wait and see if there are any good scripts later.”

Lin Dong didn't talk about work with his son before.

But now that Lin Zhibai is getting more and more mature, Lin Dong, a father, is also willing to communicate with his son.

"so……"

Lin Zhibai pondered: "The screenwriter is equivalent to the composer, and the director is equivalent to the singer?"

"There's still a difference."

Lin Dong explained: "Composers generally sign long-term contracts with entertainment companies, while screenwriters are more like mercenaries. Maybe this time they cooperate with this company, and next time they will cooperate with another company. Of course, the three And some of their own screenwriters."

paused.

Lin Dong continued: "However, your understanding is generally correct. The status of big-name screenwriters is equivalent to that of your music daddy. After all, the film and television industry is centered on screenwriters, so the scripts created by those big-name screenwriters can easily lead to the three big snatches.

"It's like the songs of your music daddy.

"Aren't the singers rushing to audition?

"It's a pity that even if Shinhwa wins the works of those big-name screenwriters, it won't be my turn to shoot. Erbo Ni is a high-level executive in the company and also serves as the head of production. He usually has the final say on how to allocate the scripts of big-name screenwriters, unless those big-name screenwriters don't agree. agree."

finished.

Lin Dong smiled and said: "These complaints will pass after listening, and I will just chat with you casually."

"Gold will always shine."

Lin Zhibai comforted his father.

As a family member, Lin Zhibai has watched some TV series filmed by his father.

The ratings of these dramas are usually very high, but the performance of the ratings is very mediocre, a bit applauded but not popular, but Lin Zhibai thinks that as a director, his father's ability is not a problem, it's just that a clever woman can't cook without rice——

The second uncle got his neck stuck.

As my father said, the Blue Star film and television industry is a screenwriter-centered system.

The screenwriter-centered system means that the screenwriter should take the leading role in the film and television production process.

In the actual shooting of film and television dramas, the screenwriter teacher is the most dared not to offend the actors in the crew.

Because if you offend the director, you will be scolded at most. If you want to change actors, you have to consider that he has signed a contract in advance.

But what if he offended the screenwriter?

That is the rhythm of stealth and even receiving lunch boxes every minute.

The pen is in the hands of the screenwriter, so the screenwriter has the final say on how many actors will play?

Those big-name screenwriters can even decide on their own actors, and what's more, they can replace the director arranged by the investor, which shows their high status in the industry!

anyway.

Don't think that the whole world is a director-centric system.

There are also restrictions on producers and investors above the director.

But in general, directors in mainland China have a high status, unlike Xiangjiang TV dramas, where the central production system is practiced the most.

Europe and the United States are more complicated.

There are director-centered system, screenwriter-centered system, and producer-centered system.

In addition, many people should have watched Korean dramas.

In fact, Korean dramas are a typical screenwriter-centered structure.

Thanks to this content-heavy mode, the Korean wave became popular after the millennium, and even started the cultural invasion mode, until Korean dramas swept the global market.

Of course this is in the realm of television.

If it was in Blue Star's film field, those big-name directors could still have a face-to-face confrontation with the screenwriters. After all, movies are not only the art of scripts, but also the art of light and shadow.

In general.

Being a director at Blue Star is still very hard work, and I often have to watch the screenwriter's face.

"hope so."

Lin Dong patted Lin Zhibai's arm.

Lin Zhibai smiled and looked into the distance.

According to the agreed plan, Jiang Cheng should have already handed over the script of "Hurricane" to a certain producer of Shinhwa, right?

The scriptwriter-centered system of the Blue Star TV circle.

This system restricts the rights of TV drama directors like his father, but it gives Lin Zhibai more room to operate.

Get ready to go wild.

...

And on the other side of the city.

Zhao Lei from the production department of Shinhwa Entertainment sat in the driver's car to go home after get off work. When he closed his eyes and rested his mind, he suddenly received a strange call.

"Who are you?"

"Hi Mr. Zhao, let me introduce myself. My name is Jiang Cheng, the representative of Kunpeng Investment." A voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Kunpeng investment?"

Zhao Lei knew many bosses of investment companies, but this was the first time Kunpeng had heard of it.

"Our company has just been established. It's normal that Mr. Zhao has never heard of it. I have a script in my hand. I wonder if Mr. Zhao is interested?"

"Which teacher's work?"

There was a glimmer of expectation in Zhao Lei's heart. He often received similar calls. Since the other party could get his number, it showed that he still had some strength.

"The screenwriter is Teacher Buyehou."

According to the boss's instructions, Jiang Cheng directly signed the script with the vest of Bu Yehou. The attributes of the writer and screenwriter are close, so this arrangement is suitable for both emotion and reason.

"Teacher Buyehou is a very good..."

"Sorry, this is the first time I've heard of the writer Bu Yehou."

Zhao Lei interrupted Jiang Cheng with his words, and had lost interest in the script, so he found an excuse and said:

"I still have something to do. Representative Jiang can send part of the script to my mailbox. I will read it later when I have time."

"Okay, hard work, goodbye."

There were not many emotional fluctuations in the other party's voice, and the phone hung up simply, without even asking for his email address.

Very tough.

This surprised Zhao Lei a little.

Usually, the representatives of such investment companies who want to cooperate with Shinhwa Entertainment will try their best to get a few words, saying how good our script is, and you must read it carefully.

But the phone had already been hung up, and Zhao Lei didn't take it to heart, and continued to close his eyes and rest.

On the contrary, Zhao Lei's driver suddenly raised his mouth in front of a red light:

"Buyehou's novels are pretty good."

The driver Zhao Lei is a relative in his hometown, and he can occasionally talk to him.

"Is this person famous?"

Zhao Lei opened his eyes. He knew many famous writers, but he had no impression of Bu Yehou.

"Looks like a newcomer."

The driver thought: "It should not be long since I debuted, you know I like to read idle books, and I just read his works."

"Um."

Zhao Lei responded casually, but suddenly received an email notification on his mobile phone.

The person who wrote the letter was [Kunpeng Investment Company representative Jiang Cheng].

Zhao Lei was overjoyed.

This representative of Kunpeng Investment seems to have a bit of energy, not to mention his phone number, he even knows his email address.

Most of these people have backgrounds.

No wonder he was so stiff when he just hung up the phone.

Thinking that there was still a long way to go home, Zhao Lei simply accepted the script, intending to read it casually as a way to pass the time.

Under normal circumstances.

Zhao Lei would not read scripts written by newcomers like this.

It's not that Zhao Lei looks down on new screenwriters, let alone that he is irresponsible for his work.

Those who can gain a firm foothold in Shinhwa Entertainment are not simple characters, but Zhao Lei's identity and position are a bit special, and there are too many various scripts that he has to come into contact with every day.

Anyone who reads all the scripts will definitely die from overwork!

Not to mention that it's Zhao Lei's off-duty time now, and it's time for him to work hard all day.

Yes.

Zhao Lei usually throws the works of unknown screenwriters to his subordinates for review first, and selects those with certain value to hand over. Only those works of well-known screenwriters will be personally reviewed by him.

However, this Jiangcheng was so well prepared and had its own number and mailbox, which aroused Zhao Lei's interest.

After the file download is complete.

Zhao Lei saw the basic information displayed on the first page of the script.

Script: Cyclonus

Genre: Cop/City/Crime

Number of episodes: 43 episodes

In addition to the above content, the identity background of the two protagonists is also introduced, and a story outline is attached.

Zhao Lei didn't see anything surprising in the synopsis of the story. Like many gangster dramas, the official anti-crime and evil operations are used as the starting point, and the main goal is to catch a certain gangster.

On the contrary, Zhao Lei was somewhat surprised by the background introduction of the hero An Xin.

"The design of the protagonist's background is rare."

The protagonist An Xin is not an ordinary grassroots criminal policeman?

In the same type of gangster drama, the protagonists are usually grassroots, at most they are the captain of the criminal police team.

But An Xin's identity is a bit special, to be exact, it has a very background, and the audience will definitely like this background. Everyone likes the protagonist to have the feeling of being behind the scenes, with a bit of "cool drama" color.

Next comes the text.

The time scene character dialogue is a regular script mode.

The story of the first episode begins with the introduction of a place called "Jinghai".

Some time ago, Jinghai experienced an anti-crime operation. The evil forces that had been entrenched for many years were eliminated, and the authorities also seized a large amount of funds. Unexpectedly, the water in this place is deeper than expected——

There are still evil forces in this city.

After receiving the report, the higher-level unit sent out a steering group, asking a leader named Xu Zhong to lead the team, and must thoroughly dig out the evil forces in Jinghai.

Before leaving.

The above specifically reminded Xu Zhong:

It is necessary to use Jinghai Qiangsheng Group as a breakthrough to solve the problem.

Jinghai Qiangsheng Group is a large enterprise with complex social relations. The president of the company, Gao Qiqiang, is also the head of the local business community in Jinghai, and his influence in the local area is extremely terrifying.

The steering group arrived at Jinghai.

Then the protagonist An Xin officially appeared on the stage, and had an intersection with the director Xu Zhong and others.

An Xin, the young but white-haired hero, pulls the story back to twenty years ago through a memory.

that year.

Gao Qiqiang, the president of Qiangsheng Group, is just a fishmonger.

Because the fight was reported, Gao Qiqiang went to the detention center during the Chinese New Year.

It happened that An Xin was on duty that night.

The intersection of the two main characters, black and white, begins here.

Zhao Lei looked at the script. As a qualified producer, he knew that this is the real beginning of the plot.

The suspense at the beginning is very strong.

Why does An Xin, the leading actor with a good background in the system, have gray hair twenty years later?

on the contrary.

The second male number Gao Qiqiang was born as a fish seller, so he couldn't even keep a fish stall at first.

The farm bully just used some tricks, and sent him to the detention center after the Chinese New Year.

How did such a person at the bottom of society become the leader of the deepest underworld forces in Jinghai City in just about twenty years?

"hiss."

Zhao Lei had a slight interest in the follow-up plot, he adjusted his posture, and put away the randomness in his heart.

"It's interesting..."
