On the evening of April 15, Lu Chen officially announced his plans to shoot a new TV series on his blog.
In this blog post, he first thanked his fans for their support, apologized for the delay in revealing the news of the new TV series, and specially explained that it was because of the production of Chen Fei 'er's album.
Of course, the main point was that the script of the new TV series had been written and would soon enter the project production link.
As for the questions that fans were most concerned about, Lu Chen answered three in the blog post.
First of all, about the genre of the new work, it was still an urban romance drama, but the story would not be the same as that of "Indigo".
Secondly, the new TV series had more episodes than "Indigo", which was expected to be 25 episodes.
Finally, the male and female leads were still Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er!
As soon as the news revealed on Lu Chen's blog was announced, it first caused a huge sensation in the fan circle.
It was really called out. Everyone was looking forward to it, and now there was finally accurate and reliable news.
"It's finally here. It's not easy. I hope it can be filmed and broadcast as soon as possible!"
"Yeah, after watching" Autumn in My Heart ", I always feel fake and awkward when I watch other shows. I don't like it!"
"Big Lu Chen, what's the name of the new TV series?"
"It's still my Chen and my Fei, hooray!"
"Throwing flowers to celebrate …"
The fans were in high spirits, but the people in the circle heard the news and broke the threshold of Lu Chen Studio!
Lu Xi's phone directly exploded.
There were too many units that wanted to cooperate with Lu Chen and Lu Chen Studio on the new TV series. Many famous big companies in the industry sent representatives to negotiate, such as Jia Hua, Crown, Jin Libao, etc., which were all big shots.
There were also TV stations, Zhedong Satellite TV, Haijin Satellite TV, Deep Sea Satellite TV, Beijing Television … They also called to seek cooperation opportunities.
"Autumn in My Heart" was really too popular. Not only did it break the ratings record in China, but it was also broadcast in South Korea. The next step was likely to be promoted to Japan and other Southeast Asian countries, which was really good and popular.
Everyone had missed this incomparably delicious big cake, so how could they just stand by and watch the new cake be indifferent? That was why investors and partners came one after another.
In addition to these companies and units, many entertainment agencies also wanted a piece of the pie. Many star artists were interested in playing a role in the new drama, and they all used their connections to find Lu Chen Studio.
Lu Chen even received a call from ChenJianhao.
This would-be nanny dad had retired and was preparing to become a father. Logically speaking, he should not care about the affairs of the world anymore. Unfortunately, as someone who used to be in the circle, he could not get rid of the entanglement of relationships in the circle. He was asked to speak to Lu Chen.
It's impossible to be the main character, let's have a supporting role!
There were really a lot of people who wanted roles, such as Flying Stone Records, Light Rain Media, and SPG. There were several that Lu Chen had agreed to or had agreements with earlier.
There were too many monks and not enough meat!
It was precisely because of this that when Lu Chen wrote the script, he made a lot of changes to the original plot framework, adding more characters, strengthening the plot, and correcting the existing bugs.
Of course, the idea of his new drama still came from the dream world, but it would never be a copy. In this way, in addition to producing a higher quality than the original, there would also be more room for operation.
On the second day after Lu Chen announced the news, two acquaintances of Beijing TV Station came to him.
These two people, Lu Chen, also had to personally come out to receive them — Chen Qi and Gurui.
Chen Qi was the deputy director of Beijing TV Station, and Gurui was the artistic director of the program department. When Lu Chen participated in Beijing Television's "Singing China" talent show, they took good care of Lu Chen.
After meeting, Chen Qi said straightforwardly to Lu Chen, "Xiao Lu, you have to leave a share of this new drama for Beijing TV. We can't miss out on the filming, production, and premiere. As for the conditions, you can ask for anything. As long as I can agree to it, it's no problem!"
Beijing TV didn't want to eat alone. What they were plotting was joint production and joint premiere. Nowadays, many popular TV series or movie blockbusters are cooperated by means of joint investment, filming, and broadcasting. On the one hand, it is to share risks, and on the other hand, it is to expand their influence.
Another very important reason is that it is difficult for people who like to eat alone to stand firm in the circle.
Including Lu Chen.
He was able to rise rapidly in the entertainment industry. In addition to his own strength, paying attention to the management of interpersonal relationships is also one of the key factors. Only by knowing how to share benefits can he be so smooth.
Some people don't understand this truth and always want to keep all the profits in their own pockets. As a result, they often hit their heads and bleed, and in the end, the gains do not make up for the losses.
For Lu Chen to establish a foothold in Beijing to develop his career, it is undoubtedly necessary to establish a long-term friendly cooperative relationship with Beijing TV Station, so he does not exclude the participation of Beijing TV.
Of course, the premise is to ensure his own core interests. Even if he ceded a part, he must exchange it for the equivalent value!
Beijing TV can cooperate, and Zhejiang TV can also cooperate. The premiere rights can be distributed to several TV stations.
But there are some interests that Lu Chen will not easily give up.
For example, product placement.
The so-called Product Placement is a form of advertising that has emerged with the development of movies, TV, games, etc. It refers to deliberately inserting a business's products or services in the film and television plot and games to achieve a subtle publicity effect.
Because the audience has a natural resistance to advertising, the practice of integrating goods into these entertainment methods is often much better than rigid sales promotion.
Nowadays, the domestic film and television industry is developing rapidly, and there are more and more product placement advertisements in TV series and movies. Some of the high-profile superstar blockbusters have signed a large number of product placement contracts before shooting, so that the production costs have been recovered in advance.
When Lu Chen shot "Autumn in My Heart", he was still unknown in the film and television industry. Now that he has become famous, there are more advertisers and advertisers who have come to him. For example, Senqi Clothing, Zhonghua Automobile, Thunderbird Watch, Lanjie Daily Cosmetics, etc., which he endorses, are all interested in placing their own advertisements in the new drama.
Lu Xi roughly estimated that if he won all the product placement advertisements of these big brands, he could earn at least more than 20 million in advertising fees!
In this way, even if the script is settled, the new drama can't be shot just because he wants to. It involves various interests, and it's not easy to straighten it out. Otherwise, it's easy to cause the outflow of rights and interests.
Lu Chen irresponsibly threw all these troubles to his sister. What he is most concerned about now is not the new drama that is about to be shot, but Chen Fei 'er's new album that is about to be released on the market.
