In fact, this involves a lot of things. First of all, a director like Xu Cang said bluntly that if he is willing, he can set up his own company, and he can easily gather a group of experienced behind-the-scenes team.
And there is no shortage of investment at all, because his achievements are there, but conversely, if he sets up a film production company, it will be relatively troublesome.
On the one hand, the operation of movies is completely different from that of TV shows.
Many directors actually have their own personal studios, making movies, and even raising investment. In fact, it is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is publicity.
Why these giants are giants is because they control the distribution channels.
In fact, Yi Xing does not mean that he has no ability to prepare for a TV series, but that he has no confidence!
Although the risk of TV series is relatively small, the key problem is that you have to have reliable projects and reliable directors.
And if at this time, a lot of money sign a well-known director, there is also a big problem, that is, Yi Xing will be turned away from the guest.
Therefore, Wang Yifan’s suggestion is that Yixing can do some small projects first to accumulate experience.
If you can train your own director, then start some larger projects.
There was never anything that could be accomplished overnight, and Yi Xiaochuan naturally understood this, so he accepted Wang Yifan's proposal.
......
Star Dream Entertainment, in Wang Yifan's office.
"Old Xu, sit down!" Wang Yifan smiled at Xu Cang.
After Xu Cang sat down, Wang Yifan spoke.
"The "Sword of the Immortal" is over. Do you have any plans next?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.
Xu Cang shook his head and said, "I read some scripts, but I am not very satisfied. There is no clear plan for the time being. Why? Yifan, do you have an idea?"
"Don't you think there has been a very interesting phenomenon recently?" Wang Yifan asked with a sudden smile.
"What?" Xu Cang was a little confused.
"The impact of "Sword"," Wang Yifan said.
"Are you talking about the immortal chivalrous trend?" Xu Cang frowned and asked.
Wang Yifan shook his head and said: "The immortal chivalry trend has already existed, not the immortal chivalrous style, but the tragedy trend."
Xu Cang nodded suddenly and said, "It's really, but it seems that the effect is not so good."
The main topic of the huge discussion caused by "Sword" was the abuse of this drama, the tragedy of this drama.
Even Wang Yifan has heard that there are several dramas that originally ended with happy endings. They all changed the endings specially because of "Sword", turning the happy endings into tragedies.
But the effect is very mediocre and even counterproductive.
The main reason is that the tragedy of "Sword of the Sword" is not only an ending, but the theme of the whole drama is promoted.
The hidden theme of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is actually "destiny and fate", which can be seen from the song "Xiaoyao Tan".
"Actually, have you ever thought about taking pictures of what you are best at?" Wang Yifan asked with his arms folded.
"What am I best at? TV series?" Xu Cang frowned. He has already developed well in movies. He doesn't want to make TV series again, and he also knows that it is difficult to encounter something like Fairy Sword again. The script is out.
Wang Yifan shook his head and waved his hand: "No, no, no, you misunderstand me, I mean, costume play!"
"Costume drama?" Xu Cang nodded. In fact, he is indeed better at costume drama.
The experience in this area is also quite sufficient, which can be seen from the "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
"I have a song here, look at it." Wang Yifan smiled and took out a song.
Xu Cang couldn't help but smile. Many people have forgotten how Wang Yifan started his career. He is a'music director'. Therefore, Xu Cang is very curious about Wang Yifan's new song.
Because this often represents a new film.
"Silver Play"?
What Wang Yifan gave Xu Cang was just a lyrics.
Of course, he might not understand more for Xu Cang.
However, Xu Cang watched it carefully.
However, he was a little confused.
"Puppet show? Magic?" Xu Cang hesitated.
Wang Yifan nodded, then shook his head and said, "Yes, nor is it!"
"You should understand, in fact, the core is still love!" Wang Yifan said with a smile on the lyrics.
"Script, do you have it?"
Although it is just the lyrics of a song, the lyrics can already highlight a lot of things. Xu Cang himself is the director, and he can't help but have some pictures in his mind.
Wang Yifan shook his head and said: "For the time being, it's just a little idea, but if you are interested, I can provide an outline of the script."
Nowadays, Wang Yifan rarely writes all the story scripts himself, but provides a main line outline. Other work will naturally be completed by other screenwriting teams.
Moreover, Xu Cang will be the director, and he himself will also suggest some modifications to the script of the play [biqugew.co].
"I need to find out. After all, I don't know much about puppet shows." Xu Cang groaned for a moment.
In fact, he has already moved. First of all, this is the project proposed by Wang Yifan. Secondly, if this project is to be made, this film will definitely not be the small cost as before, but will be a medium-cost magical film. .
For this kind of film, special effects are indispensable. Although it will certainly not be based on the main special effects, the production cost of this film when it comes to special effects will certainly not be tens of millions.
If it is still a small-cost movie, Xu Cang may not be tempted, but this is likely to be a large production with an investment of over 100 million.
No director would be willing to keep making small-cost films, especially Xu Cang who has proven himself, so he also wants to make a big production.
But this requires support from someone. The project must be reliable. Xu Cang certainly has ambitions, but he has a clear understanding of his own abilities. Unlike Wang Yue, he rushed to get rid of Wang Yifan. Impact.
He knew well that Wang Yifan's influence was actually not a bad thing for him, but a good thing.
Because in this way, he can also use Wang Yifan's influence and resources, and, when the film is shot, the results are actually his, not Wang Yifan's.
Even if the outside world said it was Wang Yifan's credit, everyone in the circle would know that Xu Cang was the real director.
Wang Yue just paid too much attention to these things, but Xu Cang thought very well. Many people attributed the success of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" to Wang Yifan, but what does it matter? Many people in the circle will remember that "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a work he shot by Xu Cang.
Similarly, the director is behind the scenes, not the type of work in front of the stage, and there is no need to care about those voices.
Therefore, of course he will seize this opportunity.
