Chapter 501 Magnolia Award Ceremony(1/2)
Magic City, Tianjing Entertainment Company.
In director Jiangbei's office.
Jiang Bei looked down at the picture taken on his mobile phone, seriously and attentively. One hand kept drawing something on his thigh. After a long time, his casual pants with good quality were rubbed a little.
tattered.
"Well, this picture is good, you can shoot it like this."
"The camera is at a 45-degree angle and shot from bottom to top. The actors can stand in this position."
"This is not good. If you shoot from this angle, you won't be able to capture the beauty."
“How can I take the most beautiful shot?”
Jiangbei seemed to be troubled by some problem and was thinking about it over and over again.
He is not in a hurry, he knows very well that these problems can be solved, you just need to give him time.
He has been here like this for all these years.
Every time he solves a problem, he will gain a little more accumulation.
As he accumulated more, the quantitative changes turned into qualitative changes, so every frame of the TV series he shot was very beautiful, and he was amazed by people in the industry and envied by other directors.
Ding ding ding.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated, and someone forwarded him a piece of news.
His thoughts were interrupted, Jiang Bei didn't worry, he opened the chat software and looked at the news that was just sent.
The news was sent by Sun Han, the deputy director of the TV drama department.
Jiang Bei looked at the title and saw that the nominations for the Magnolia Awards had been announced.
As the top award in the industry, the management of Tianjing Entertainment Company is also very concerned about the Magnolia Award.
An important reason why Tianjing Entertainment has such a large scale and momentum today is that its artists have continuously won these awards, which has continuously contributed to Tianjing Entertainment.
Jiangbei knows that the boss will pay attention to every year's first-category awards, including those in TV series or movies. This is the foundation of the company.
If its artists don't win any of these awards, then this company is not far away from Liangliang.
Jiangbei clicked on the news and took a look at the nominations for this year's Magnolia awards.
After reading it, he frowned.
"Palace" was nominated for nine awards, which is a very impressive achievement, worthy of its ratings of over 3%.
However, "Palace" was still outclassed by "Lotus Lantern".
As a well-known director in the TV drama circle, Jiang Bei has shot many excellent TV dramas over the years.
Among them, the ratings of a considerable number of TV series exceeded 2%.
This is a quite terrifying result. After all, for most directors in this circle, it is difficult for most directors in this circle to achieve a ratings of more than 2% throughout their career.
And Jiangbei has done it many times.
But for an excellent TV series like Jiangbei, there are only a few times when the ratings of TV series exceed 3%.
It can be said that the performance of "Palace" is one of his peaks.
Last year and the year before that, he didn't produce a TV series with ratings that exceeded 3. It was acceptable for him to be outdone by others in the three major first-category awards, or even become a runner-up.
But what happened this year made him feel a little heavy.
His peak performance was suppressed by others.
And this time, it was not the two old rivals who were suppressed, but a newcomer in the industry.
Jiangbei had heard of Tan Yue's name, but to Jiangbei, Tan Yue was a new person.
Being suppressed by a newcomer's drama, Jiang Bei always felt a little uncomfortable.
Sighed.
Jiangbei's heart was shrouded in a layer of gloom.
He is very eager to win the first Grand Slam in his life, but this time the Magnolia Award may disappoint him again.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Ratings are an important indicator to measure the quality of a TV series, and are also adopted by Magnolia Award review experts.
The ratings of "Palace" are not as good as "Lotus Lantern".
If he fails to win the Best Director at the Magnolia Awards this time, it will be delayed for another year, and his path to winning a Grand Slam will have another setback. Thinking of this, Jiang Bei can't help but have a headache.
However, it is not completely hopeless.
After all, the Magnolia Awards have not yet started, and although the quality of "Lotus Lantern" is good, its director is not very famous.
Those antique experts at the Magnolia Awards may not be willing to award the Best Director Award to "Lotus Lantern".
There are many awards at the Magnolia Festival, such as Best Actor and Best Actress, but what Jiangbei values most is Best Director.
It is useless to think too much about these things. Jiang Bei sighed, shook his head, opened the contacts on his mobile phone, and made a call, "Old Sun, didn't I fancy a few scripts before? You sent them to me, I have some
Got an idea.”
When filming dramas in Jiangbei, in addition to the company's arrangements, they also have their own ideas.
Although the quality of the dramas arranged by the company is very good, Jiangbei always feels a bit underwhelming when filming, and the ratings generally do not exceed 2.5%.
The three TV series he had previously filmed with ratings exceeding 3% were all inspired by himself.
When he was looking at the materials he had accumulated just now, another idea came to Jiang Bei's mind.
...
Huaguang Entertainment Company.
As an old second-rate entertainment company, Huaguang Entertainment has developed much slower in recent years.
This is not a problem of Huaguang Entertainment, many established entertainment companies have this problem.
The current overall situation of China Entertainment is the contradiction between the country's strong support for the development of the entertainment industry in order to improve cultural soft power and the fact that entertainment companies have themselves fallen into bottlenecks.
Chinese culture is brilliant, and it stands to reason that it should not be unable to find a direction for development.
But the reality is that there are still some development difficulties.
Some companies are developing rapidly, such as Tianjing Entertainment Company, Cuican Entertainment Company, Baicheng Entertainment Company, and some entertainment companies are developing slowly, such as Guangmei Entertainment Company, Galaxy Entertainment Company, Huaguang Entertainment Company, etc.
Huaguang Entertainment Company, in the president's office.
Gao Guangliang was sitting behind his desk, his face a little ugly.
Recently, Huaguang Entertainment Company has a relatively large business activity and wants to cooperate with Galaxy Entertainment Company.
However, Galaxy Entertainment Company is not very willing. The relevant person in charge of Huaguang Entertainment Company has urged it several times, but the progress is still slow.
As a last resort, the matter was reported to CEO Gao Guangliang.
Gao Guangliang directly called Zhang Juwei, the boss of Galaxy Entertainment Company, thinking that Zhang Juwei would sell him such a thing to save face.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Juwei, that old stubborn man, was like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard, and refused directly without giving any face.
Gao Guangliang's face was gloomy and uncertain.
Now that things have developed to this extent, this business cooperation is basically dead.
"Old guy, relying on your seniority, you can rely on me here to help me grow old."
Gao Guangliang was very dissatisfied with Zhang Juwei, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Although Galaxy Entertainment has been in decline in recent years, Huaguang Entertainment is also the same. The eldest brother does not laugh at the second brother.
And although Gao Guangliang doesn't want to admit it, Zhang Juwei's popularity in the circle is stronger than him.
Boom, boom, boom.
When Gao Guangliang was thinking about something, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in." Gao Guangliang said.
The office door was pushed open, and a man with a slender figure and handsome features walked in.
Seeing the person coming, Gao Guangliang felt that even if this guy went into the entertainment industry, he would still have many female fans.
The person coming was none other than Qi Kai, the former vice president of Bright Entertainment Company, who now joined Huaguang Entertainment Company as the director of the TV series department.
"Mr. Gao, are you looking for me?" Qi Kai came to Gao Guangliang's desk and asked.
Gao Guangliang nodded and said, "Xiao Qi, sit down."
In the past, when Qi Kai was still at Bright Entertainment Company, when discussing things with Gao Guangliang, they were always on equal terms, and Gao Guangliang had to call him "Mr. Qi".
Now, in front of Gao Guangliang, he became Xiao Qi.
Outsiders don't know what Qi Kai is thinking.
Qi Kai sat opposite Gao Guangliang with a smile.
