The Late School
Chapter 77
After listening to Zhang Tan's plan, He Miao had to admit that it was very interesting, interesting, and ingenious.
"Zhang Tan, the project is no problem, but there is still a producer who will do it."
He thought Zhang Tan was a newcomer and didn’t understand the production process of film and television dramas, so he explained to him, but Zhang Tan participated in many big projects in his previous life and was already familiar with this set. Moreover, he was a student of the director department of Peking Film Academy. !
"Finding a producer is not something I can do. I hope that the factory will support it. However, I will do the project report with Director Zhang first, and both sides will do it at the same time without any delay."
For the play "Little Drama Bone", the script is not the most important, because the interpretation is a classic, such as "A Dream of Red Mansions", the stories are ready-made, only need to be adapted, and since it is a classic interpretation, of course it cannot be changed. The script adaptation will be relatively simple.
However, adapting existing novels is not as simple as laymen think.
Once, Zhang Tan joined a movie project to adapt a popular tomb robbery novel. At that time, the writer volunteered to adapt the script. The producer was worried that he might not be able to handle it and asked Zhang Tan to help, but Zhang Tan was so passionate. What to say, but after half a month, the adapted script has not been brought over. I called to ask, changed, deleted, deleted, and it hasn't been made yet.
So you see, script writing is still very professional, with its own set of writing process, not just changing the mode of the novel.
For Zhang Tan, the most important thing at the moment is the project plan for "Little Drama Bone". It takes a lot of work to make the factory think this project is feasible, especially for such a children's play, there is nothing to learn from. And reference.
Zhang Tan and Zhang Tongshun hid in the office to ponder, and it took two days to get a project report. It was first handed to He Miao. After he saw that there was no problem, Zhang Tongshun gave it to Zhu Ruopu, the director of the film and television department. Compared with Zhang Sigh, he has more dealings with Zhu Ruopu.
After doing this, Zhang Tan and Zhang Tongshun will get off work. The next two days will be the weekend and they can rest. Next week will be a busy week.
The two entered the elevator, and two came in face-to-face. One of them looked familiar, and Zhang Tan quickly remembered, isn't this Wang Yifan, the lead actor of "Chief Jin"?!
He glanced at Zhang Tongshun calmly, saw that his face was normal, and smiled and nodded to Wang Yifan, saying that he was off work.
The two have been guilty for the third season of "Chief Gold", even if the adult city prevents them from being guilty, but at least they have a grudge.
Wang Yifan also nodded to Zhang Tongshun, and said yes.
On the contrary, a young man next to Wang Yifan chatted with Zhang Tongshun a few words, and took a deep look at Zhang sigh.
From these few conversations, Zhang Tan knew that this young man is the director of the new season of "Chief Jin".
"Ms. Zhang, I heard that you are starting to prepare for another project?" The elevator was going down, maybe it was too quiet and a bit embarrassing, the young director spoke up.
Zhang Tongshun said flatly: "Yes, the preparations have just started, but the project has not yet been approved."
This man and Wang Yifan were standing on the left side of the elevator, Zhang Tan and Zhang Tongshun were standing on the right side of the elevator, and the two sides were unconsciously separated.
When Wang Yifan heard Zhang Tongshun's words, his head wanted to look over, but he returned to the original state when he turned halfway, did not ask or say anything.
"I heard it's a play about children acting?" The young director seemed to be very interested and asked one more question.
Zhang Tongshun said: "I want to try something new."
The young director flattered a few words, when the elevator arrived, Wang Yifan took the lead and almost squeezed to Zhang Tan.The young director looked at Zhang Tan apologetically, smiled, and went out immediately.
Zhang Tongshun and Zhang Tan looked at each other and laughed: "Now we are riding a tiger, otherwise it will be a joke."
Zhang Tan corrected: "This is not difficult to ride a tiger, this is the starting gun has fired, we must run hard."
At the same time, Wang Yifan and the young director who had gone away got on the car. Wang Yifan asked, "What's the situation with the drama you just asked?"
He didn't say Zhang Tongshun, but everyone knew he was asking about Zhang Tongshun's drama.
The young director immediately introduced what he knew to Wang Yifan. After Wang Yifan heard it, he said half-jokingly: "The children play house."
"It's pretty casual."
The young director took another sentence and said nothing more. After all, it was Wang Yifan who fell out with Zhang Tongshun, not him. He didn't need to choose a side for himself.
As soon as he went to work on Monday, Zhu Ruopu, the director of the film and television department, called Zhang Tan and Zhang Tongshun for a meeting with the theme of "Little Play Bone".
Two days on the weekend, he carefully looked at the project approval report of this project. It was very interesting, but it was also risky. There had never been a drama of the same type before. If it could be filmed, it would be a precedent.
The project report focused on the market prospects of this drama, which made him quite excited. After thinking about it, the benefits are more substantial than the potential risks, and it is worth a try.
After the meeting and discussion for a long time, Zhu Ruopu invited a middle-aged woman, this is his favorite project producer.
"The three of you have a good discussion about this project, and if you have any questions, come to me." Zhu Ruopu said. After the main management structure of the project is set up, then the matter is left to them, and he doesn't bother about everything.
The producer is named Gao Xiaolan, who knows Zhang Tongshun, but because Zhang Tan is a newcomer, he introduced herself specially.
Zhang Tan warned uneasy: "Although it is a small drama, the actors are all children, but you can't relax the standard of the film because of this. Makeup and scenery, everything must be made according to the standard."
Zhang Tongshun asked: "What is the level that should be achieved?"
Zhang Tan said firmly: "It's the drama."
Zhang Tongshun glanced at Gao Xiaolan and nodded: "Of course, since we are going to do it, we are not here to play."
The three held a morning meeting, and after the meeting ended, they acted separately.
Producers need to apply for project funding, etc., Zhang Tongshun needs to start setting up filming crews and looking for actors, and Zhang Tan needs to write biographies, diversity outlines, and scripts.
Gao Xiaolan worried that he would be too busy alone, and asked if he should find a helper.
If Zhang Tan is really a newcomer, then he can't be too busy. You have to know that the project has started, all work is advancing rapidly, and the script must come out first, and there is not much time for him.
But Zhang Tan was a senior screenwriter in his previous life. Not to mention projects like "Xiao Xi Gu", which are more complicated than this, and projects that are more urgent than this time have been exposed. Compared with these, "Xiao Xi Gu" is like a work of practicing.
"Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I can hand in the script at work the day after tomorrow, so there is no need to find someone for the time being."
Gao Xiaolan didn't know whether he was aggressive or really capable. She smiled and didn't say anything. It is good for young people to be motivated and dare to fight. She can't discourage enthusiasm. More importantly, she guessed she just joined the project.
"Script script, the script of a script, then we will wait for your good news."
Separating and busy, Zhang Tan shut himself in the office and immersed himself in writing the script.
The first season of "Xiao Xi Bone" is about the fragment of Grandma Liu's entry into the Grand View Garden in "A Dream of Red Mansions". The content must be extended before and after. Zhang Tan's plan is to divide it into 9 episodes, each 25 minutes.
