Chapter 137(1/2)
The result was not as expected by Peng Hui. Just as the time entered the 27th, an epic movie was released.
Broken, broken, broken.
Various records, various situations, crushing, crushing!
Since then, "Wolf Warrior 2" has dominated the charts for more than three months.
And just a month after the movie was released, at the end of August, a TV series was released.
"In the Name of the People".
In fact, this TV series should have been released a long time ago, but who knew that Mango Channel has delayed it until now.
Yes, this drama was bought by Mango Channel for 220 million yuan just like in a dream.
But in fact, it has nothing to do with Peng Hui directly. After all, the money is almost spent.
Oh, I can't say it doesn't matter, after all, Peng Hui also played a role in it.
Zheng Shengli.
But it is a pity that with the appearance of Peng Hui's character, there was a series of accusations.
No one criticized his acting skills, but...
This plot is really too abrupt.
how to say?
It's like taking a TV series with two or thirty episodes and forcibly expanding it to more than 50 episodes!
And the key point is, this paragraph is of little use to the main plot.
What the screenwriter meant was that he was worried that if he kept tightening his muscles, he would experience discomfort.
In fact, it is because if we want to recover our capital, we can only bite the bullet and expand this branch line.
In fact, there is nothing we can do about this.
Except for Peng Hui and Xiaotong, all the actors in this drama are well-known veterans in the industry.
Even Peng Hui and Xiaotong, who are still relatively newbies, one is a talented young star who has recently emerged, and the other is a child star.
It can be said that there are very few newcomers in the true sense.
And even if there were, there wouldn't be many scenes.
Then here comes the problem.
There are at least twenty veteran actors in this drama.
Even if everyone gives a friendly price, the minimum for each person is 100,000 to 500,000 per episode!
The roles of the veteran actors lasted for about forty episodes.
That is between four million and twenty million.
Calculating this way, this drama is just the main plot, and the investment will exceed more than 100 million!
Obviously, some of them were paid friendly prices or even low salaries.
The total salary of the cast and crew, excluding Peng Hui and Xiaotong of course, is 48 million.
The total cost is 100 million.
According to Peng Hui's estimate, the cost of Group B will not exceed 20 million.
Then here comes the problem.
After these 1-0.2-0.48, how much money is left?
50000000!
But based on the cost of the main line, the remaining money of more than 50 million is really not much left.
You may even be in debt.
then what should we do?
Only ads can be inserted.
But the main plot is anti-corruption, so naturally there won’t be any endorsement products.
What to do?
At this time, Peng Hui joined the group with capital.
In this way, the plot needs to be designed separately for Peng Hui.
After all, there are no remaining positions in the main line.
Only Zheng Shengli remained.
But Zheng Shengli has no sense of presence in the main plot.
What to do?
Just right...
After hearing that Peng Hui had joined, some investors came to ask for some advertising placement!
And the name was Peng Huinong.
What to do?
Let’s do it.
What are you doing anyway?
That's why the screenwriter expanded the original Zheng Shengli's line and turned it into a branch line.
The original purpose is to adjust the high-speed plot, on the other hand, it is also to make Peng Hui happy, and thirdly, it is also to solve the problem of product placement.
In fact, if the director hadn't had some sense of integrity, he might have been able to get the cost back just by coming to Peng Hui to place ads later!
In fact, it's almost the same.
Even before it’s sold, two-thirds of the film’s cost has been recouped!
Don’t doubt it, this is the terrifying capital flow brought by a little fresh meat with a box office of 3.7 billion, director, screenwriter, and actor!
Is it scary?
Scary, very scary.
Because of this, although many people complained about the addition of Peng Hui, with the funds in place, these voices have disappeared.
In fact, even veteran artists have no idea.
It's normal. This is a type of TV series that has disappeared in China for nearly ten years - anti-corruption dramas.
Although there are many big names and veteran actors in the industry, aren't there too many cases of veteran actors collectively overturning their fortunes these days?
With an investment of RMB 100 million in this drama, there is really a question mark as to whether the cost can be recovered.
So no matter how rubbish Peng Hui's acting skills are, just seeing that he can bring such a huge flow of funds, veteran actors will recognize him.
not to mention……
Peng Hui's acting skills are actually pretty good.
Yes, among all the male artists in the entire cast, Peng Hui is younger and has lower acting skills, but...
Peng Hui is also a sure bottom line!
There may be some veterans who don't like Peng Hui's traffic, but they are not blind when it comes to who has the strength and ability, right?
And to be honest, Peng Hui's acting skills are not the lowest.
This is the truth.
Although some veteran actors may seem famous in the industry, in fact their acting skills are not as good as Peng Hui's!
In fact, when artists who reach the second tier get older, they can be called veteran actors.
Some people have worked hard and struggled all their lives, but their acting skills may only be at the top of the second tier.
How many people are stuck in one front line?
You must know that even Ying Bao only dared to say that he was on the front line after "Riding the Wind and Waves"!
This is one of her few highlight roles over the years!
Don't forget that she was suppressed when watching "Knowledge".
But that’s because she’s so strong against the person she plays!
Uncle Feng was known as "Teddy" before he got married, but in fact, no one complained about his acting skills!
This is the truth!
It’s a perfect first line!
Others such as Gao Lu from "Little Lady Lin", Li Lin from "Big Lady", and others are all well-known and capable actors!
