"Fang Xing, the cultural industry should promote mainstream values ​​more than just entertainment, don't you think?"

Liu Jian'an led Fang Xing to visit the completed projects of the Ningyun District Cultural Industrial Park. During this period, he did not give a definite statement on the Ark Culture 2 billion headquarters building project.

After visiting the cultural industry park, Liu Jian'an began to talk about the core values ​​of the cultural industry.

Fang Xing knew very well that if he wanted to win the favor of Ning Yun, the leader, and settle in the cultural industrial park, blind entertainment would definitely not work when it came to the output of cultural content.

"Of course, that's what Secretary Liu said."

Liu Jian'an put on a faint smile and said: "Actually, I like young people like you very much. I have also seen your performance, "Song of the Seven Sons" at the Spring Festival Gala, and I will personally take you to see it.

The reason for the industrial park.”

In terms of cultural content output, Fang Xing has indeed sung songs such as "Song of the Seven Sons" and "A Man Should Be Strong" that praise the integrity and backbone of the nation.

If there was no "Song of Seven Sons", Liu Jianan would not come in person today.

Accompanying the CEO of a cultural enterprise to visit the industrial park does not require the top leader of Ningyun District to come in person.

However, because the songs Fang Xing sang were very consistent with the national culture that Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park wanted to promote, Liu Jianan attached great importance to them, and that's why we met today.

"I see, Secretary Liu, thank you for your hard work." Fang Xing had never thought that this would happen before.

"The leaders of our district praise you for your singing, but you also need to improve on your film and TV dramas. The insiders of "Wulin Gaiden" are full of praise, but in terms of promoting the national spirit, it is not enough." Liu Jian'an pointed out.

"What does the secretary mean?" Fang Xing knew as soon as he heard that there was something else going on.

"Next year is to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Aggression War. The General Administration of Culture advocates the filming of more film and television dramas that promote the national spirit during the war. Have you heard about this?" Liu Jian'an took the initiative to bring up this matter.

In fact.

Fang Xing had actually heard a little bit about this matter.

This matter has already started at the beginning of the year, and many film and television companies are preparing films and television dramas with related themes as gifts for next year's 75th anniversary.

This is not mandatory, but is advocated at the national level.

If you want to walk steadily on this road, it is important to keep up with the country's pace.

Fang Xing nodded and replied: "I heard a little bit, what does the secretary mean? If I make a film and television drama with related themes, the industrial park will grant me 2 billion project land?"

Liu Jian'an pointed Fang Xing with his finger and laughed: "Young people are really direct when speaking. However, I like this direct way of doing things.

"The district has studied it. Let Ark Culture settle in the cultural industrial park first. The specific size of the project you will be approved for still needs to be studied.

"At the same time, it also depends on your subsequent performance. Next year's gift for the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Aggression War is a good opportunity. You might as well give it a try."

Fang Xing thought for a moment and asked: "What does the secretary mean, do you want to make a film that the audience will like to watch? Or do you not need to care about the audience's preferences?"

Film and television dramas with the theme of anti-aggression war like this have different shooting directions.

Liu Jian'an pondered for a moment and replied: "Of course the audience must like to watch it. If the audience doesn't like to watch it, who should we promote the national spirit to?"

Fang Xing nodded and replied: "I understand."

…

After talking with Liu Jianan, Ark Culture always settled in Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park.

Of course, the settlement is only nominal at present, and the company headquarters will not be relocated immediately.

After all, Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park is still in the planning and construction stage. The Ark Cultural Headquarters Building, which plans to invest 2 billion, has not even a shadow yet, so it is only a nominal settlement in the industrial park.

To put it simply, in the credits at the end of future film and television dramas, there will be units related to Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park.

Although the 2 billion Ark Culture Headquarters building project has not yet started, Fang Xing has already taken the lead in becoming the top leader in Ningyun District.

Of course, this line is not yet solid and needs to show more strength.

After Ark Culture settled in Ningyun Cultural Industrial Park, it can be said that it has obtained half of the talisman. If you want to extend your claws on those ugly capital, you have to weigh it first.

…

After returning to the company, Fang Xing asked people to investigate cultural export matters related to the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Aggression War next year.

The next morning, there was a meeting at the company to discuss the matter.

at the meeting.

"Boss, regarding the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Aggression War, rumors have indeed started to spread since the beginning of the year..."

Qiao Yinghong first recounted what she learned: "I asked a few acquaintances in the film and television industry to find out that the State Administration of Culture indeed advocates the cultural industry and promotes the national spirit.

“So, many film and television companies in the industry are preparing film and television dramas with related themes.

"However, the degree of emphasis is different. Some companies treat the theme of anti-aggression war as an important project, while other companies are doing it just for show, preparing to shoot something casually to show their attitude.

"I checked carefully. The boss should want to know the news about Red Film and Television."

The first and second largest shareholders of Ruide Film and Television are Pengcheng Capital and Dingsheng Capital.

These two capital companies are already old rivals.

Fang Xing asked curiously: "Are they also preparing a film and television drama about anti-aggression war?"

"Yes, and the investment is not small. In addition to the male protagonist Xiao Lunsheng, who is currently popular, the female protagonist is also a new star. The rest of the cast is also very strong, with a total investment of 150 million. In the anti-aggression war

In terms of subject matter, this is already a top-notch production." Qiao Yinghong replied.

TV dramas with the theme of anti-aggression war are already a very mature genre.

This type of TV series has a very fixed audience group. As long as it is filmed, there will basically be an audience to watch it.

This also leads to the uneven quality of dramas of this type.

Among them there are many thunder dramas with rolling thunder.

Usually this type of drama can be produced with B-level investment.

An investment of more than 100 million is a top-notch production.

The 150 million anti-invasion war drama invested by Ruide Film and Television this time is the top among the top.

Fang Xing continued the question: "Apart from Ruide Film and Television? What other film and television companies have A-level and above projects?"

Qiao Yinghong picked up a form and said: "There is "The Hidden Agent" with an investment of 80 million from Bluebird Media, "Unsung Heroes" with an investment of 120 million from Tianlong Film and Television, and..."

She mentioned a series of film and television projects, with investments basically ranging from 60 million to 100 million.

A project worth more than 100 million is indeed a big project.

When she went to visit the Ningyun District Cultural Industrial Park that day, Qiao Yinghong also went there, so she knew that this gift for the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Aggression War was very important.

When visiting the industrial park that day, although Liu Jianan only mentioned this matter casually, the top leaders mentioned it personally. If you still thought it was just casually, you would be really stupid.

After Qiao Yinghong reported on the large investments made by major companies in the film and television industry, she asked: "Boss, are we going to prepare a film and television drama on the theme of anti-aggression war?"

Fang Xing nodded slowly: "I definitely have to film it, it just depends on what kind of film I want to make."

Qiao Yinghong analyzed the limitations of other film and television companies: "Judging from the projects currently being prepared by major film and television companies, half of the themes are battles and the other half are spy wars.

"Both of these themes have a relatively good audience base. As long as they are filmed and broadcasted on stars, they will basically not lose money."

Guo Keda interjected: "Brother Fang, we have never filmed a drama with this theme. If we start preparations now, the time is very tight, and the script is also a big problem.

"I heard that because many film and television companies are preparing film and television dramas with the theme of anti-aggression war, various companies are accepting scripts, making it difficult to receive scripts of this type now."

When a film and television company wants to prepare a drama, it first decides on the theme and then starts collecting scripts.

If there is no ready-made script, the film and television company will even request a script from a well-known screenwriting team to customize a script.

Now, in the film and television industry, dozens of companies are preparing TV series with the theme of anti-aggression war, and good scripts have long been bought by big companies.

Even well-known screenwriting teams are writing customized scripts.

If you want to collect scripts now, it’s really hard to be satisfied with them.

Fang Xing had guessed this situation early on and said, "I have also considered this. A TV series with this theme will definitely be filmed. Ignore the script for now, the crew will make arrangements for it this week."

Qiao Yinghong then asked: "Boss, are we going to shoot a battle type? Or a spy type? Or other types of themes? When preparing the crew, we need to prepare according to different themes."

If you want to shoot a battle-type TV series, you will need to shoot a lot of outdoor scenes, and the prop team will need more explosive props.

If it is a spy drama, you need espionage props.

Fang Xing already had a preliminary idea and said directly: "It's about shooting spy wars. Audiences like this type more."

Spy war is already a very mature genre in the film and television industry.

Because this genre is mature, the preparation process will be much faster. There are many props and crew members needed by the crew.

However, because this genre is very mature and there are already many gems in the industry, it is very difficult to create something new.

"Okay, then the new project will be prepared according to the 'spy war drama', and I will arrange it tomorrow." Qiao Yinghong recorded the work content in a notebook with a pen.

After a pause, she asked again: "As for the script, do I need to hire a screenwriter in the industry? If the price is high enough, I should be able to hire a well-known screenwriter team and complete the script within three months."

"No need, I will decide on the script after discussing it with Zhang Yigao." Fang Xing replied.

"Okay, does the boss have any other instructions? If not, today's meeting will be over." Qiao Yinghong said.

"That's it for today, everyone, get moving. Whether next year's bonus will be generous or not depends on this show." Fang Xing said with a smile.

"Long live the boss!" All employees in the company became excited and full of energy.
