These three IPs were the most popular ones online.
Amongst them, the comics mainly talked about some funny little joke
segments, mixed with the fantasy elements of demons and monsters. If it was
filmed well, it could even become a hit online drama.
Moreover, this kind of drama was best used to promote newbies. After all,
newbies might not have particularly good acting skills, but they were more
agile.
Once the character’s spiritual essence was displayed, it was easy to remember.
What was the entertainment industry most afraid of? They were was afraid
that others would not remember your face.
As an actor, whether it was a protagonist or a villain, as long as the audience
could remember your face, it would be half a success.
The other two IPs were adapted from novels. One of them belonged to a
modern quarrelsome rival, while the other belonged to a period drama. It was
about Beijing opera.
Over the years, with the stability of their lives after the migration, people had
increasingly revered the recovery of ancient culture.
Many period dramas were born as well. Unfortunately, due to the absence and
fall of ancient culture in reality, most of the dramas were like a tiger that had
failed to draw a dog.
After spending so much money to film a bunch of classic idol dramas, there
really weren’t many that could become a hit
One of the reasons why Su Yayan chose this IP was that the author of this novel
had a deep understanding of ancient culture and could be considered as a
professional. He did not write nonsense about ancient culture without any
basis.
Another reason was that when the system upgraded, a drawing book that had
nothing to do with medicine dropped from the upgraded treasure chest. It was
about. Beijing opera!
With this skill book and some professionals, Su Yayan was willing to bet on
this IP.
“What’s wrong with these IPs? Don’t they have enough funds?”
“No, no. We have sufficient funds. Someone wants to collaborate with us..”
“Collaboration?” Su Yayan raised an eyebrow. There were many roles in a
drama. Even if they were to use it to promote their artists, they couldn’t have
all the cast coming from their own company.
“Which of these three dramas are they interested in?
“It’s Pleasant Enemies.
“Pleasant Enemies” was that modern IP.
Su Yayan was a little surprised. In her opinion, the most promising among the
three IPs was the Beijing opera drama.
However, on second thought, the theme of this drama was more sensitive, and
it was a main drama. To outsiders, the chances of the drama getting filmed
were much higher than having it filmed well, so it was understandable that
they were unwilling to take the risk.
“Which company are they from?
“Jueying
“Jueying? Because she had taken over East City, Su Yayan tried to understand
the entertainment companies in the industry.
This company Jueying was about the same size as their company. It was a
relatively new up-and-coming company. They did not have many artists under
them, but it was said that they had good potential
What are their conditions?
“They want the role of the male lead and the female lead. In exchange, they can
invest ten million yuan.”
Ten million yuan was not a small sum. Modern dramas did not need to
simulate backgrounds, nor did they need to be too meticulous in terms of
makeup and clothing. The initial investment was already lesser than other
types of television dramas.
For Jueying to be able to fork out such a sum of money for these two
characters, it could be considered very sincere.
“Sure, but only if the director is satisfied with the audition. Also, no matter if
it’s an artist in the company or an outsider, they’re not allowed to change the
scenes after the script is set. Small details can be discussed, but if they dare to
add scenes and cause the main storyline and other characters development to
collapse, they’d better get lost as soon as possible. Get them to add this into the
contract.”
