Chapter 606 Money is just a string of numbers! Chen Jincheng had better know his place!
Chan Kam-ching actually doesn't know how to direct a TV series at all, and he doesn't even know anything about camera angles or storyboarding.
However, Lao Chen does understand that although they are not professionals, sometimes photographers and directors can work together, and many photographers have switched to directing.
Moreover, Lao Chen has always dreamed of becoming a director and has always wanted to direct a TV series or movie himself.
Therefore, he needs to keep learning.
That made things easier. Chen Jincheng handed over all the relevant matters to Lao Chen, and he sat in front watching the actors' performances and comparing them with those of the other world.
After descending from Mount Everest, his physical strength points were depleted again. His body was transformed into something even more terrifying, and even his memory became more frightening.
Even things seen in a past life can be recalled in a fleeting way, with very subtle details.
There were problems from the very beginning of filming. Zhang Songwen performed very well, and he showed the humble demeanor of Gao Qiqiang, a nobody.
Old Chen was very satisfied.
Even veteran actor Ni Dahong couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Mr. Chen's judgment in bringing this young Zhang over was indeed astute; he was indeed quite capable.
Even Zhang Yi was surprised.
After all, he is a film emperor. When he was invited to film this TV series, he was a little worried because he knew that the role of Gao Qiqiang was played by someone who was not very famous.
Especially after learning that the other party was an artist from Sister Hehe's company.
Everyone in the industry knows that Sister Hehe has a close relationship with that President Chen.
Why do film and television companies like to work with her and actively invite her to invest?
Isn't it because of her connections? After filming is complete, TV series can connect with Ershixingchen Film and Television Network, and movies can connect with Wanda Cinemas.
Now that she's thriving in the film and television industry, people are talking about it. Everyone says that sleeping with Chen Jincheng was the best investment she ever made. Compared to now, what is the little money she gave Chen Jincheng during his live streams?
This stunned many wealthy young women; they were amazed by the sophisticated level of the operation.
Therefore, Gao Qiqiang is a nepotism hire, and even the two female leads are nepotism hires.
This made him very worried about the show, and seeing Gao Qiqiang's performance now is quite unexpected.
The other actor's acting skills are absolutely superb; many leading actors in major dramas may not even have this level of acting ability.
"Director Chen, how's the filming going?" Zhang Songwen was the first to arrive at Chen Jincheng's side to ask.
"Not bad, but something's missing. Let me tell you more about Gao Qiqiang over there." Chen Jincheng first praised him, then led him to the other side.
The reason why Gao Qiqiang is so popular in another world is because Zhang Songwen brought out the character's inherent toughness, unwillingness, ambition and other qualities in his humility.
This character exudes a strong aura, so his appearance immediately draws attention and lets people know that this is a good show.
Zhang Songwen's performance was also quite good; you could say that in a popular drama, his acting skills were completely worthy of the lead actor.
But if you want to be a groundbreaking super drama, this is not enough.
Everyone witnessed Chen Jincheng calling people over.
Ni Dahong and Zhang Yi, in particular, were both quite surprised.
They felt that Zhang Songwen's performance was already quite good, but in this person's eyes it seemed not enough.
His standards are a bit too high.
While the standards may be high, the final result of the photos still matters.
After Chen Jincheng and Zhang Songwen talked for a while, the protagonist's face was full of surprise.
He studied the character for a long time, but his understanding of the character couldn't compare to Mr. Chen's brief explanation.
"Alright, let's start filming again!" Chen Jincheng sat back down in the director's seat.
During this shoot, everyone's attention was focused on that.
When filming resumed, everyone noticed that Gao Qiqiang had changed; he was different from before and had a more refined look.
Ni Dahong walked up behind Chen Jincheng and kept watching the filming, becoming more and more shocked as he watched.
Is this really the result of a shot taken by someone with absolutely no filming experience?
Finally, the same scene was filmed again. Zhang Songwen and his co-star Zhang Yi went to Chen Jincheng's location to check the filming results.
Zhang Yi was truly shocked this time; he realized that his acting skills seemed to have been overshadowed.
Zhang Songwen brought the character Gao Qiqiang to life.
In the subsequent filming of the fish market scenes, Gao Qiqiang experienced different stages of change, and Chen Jincheng would compare and contrast them before explaining them to him.
Gradually, the atmosphere on the entire set changed.
In particular, Zhang Yi, the other lead actor, started to take things seriously and even acted with great enthusiasm.
Ni Dahong knew why, because they all realized that this General Manager Chen could really produce a very good TV series.
Or rather, the script for this drama must be exceptionally good, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to play such a supporting role.
Now, with such a great script, everyone is surprised to find that Mr. Chen, this wealthy man, really knows how to direct TV dramas, and his directing ability is very strong, resulting in excellent production quality.
And then there's the censorship this drama was granted...
This show is going to be a hit.
And it's a huge hit.
It's even award-winning level.
In addition, with Chen Jincheng being a source of popularity, even if the TV series he produces is terrible, people will still watch it just to join in the fun.
But if he makes a really good film, think about the support he gets from netizens online. Countless people are already unhappy with the film and television industry, so the good thing will be amplified a lot, and countless people will support him, even if it's just to criticize the film and television industry.
They all realized that this drama had the potential to break many records. When faced with such a great drama, anyone who isn't stupid knows they should give it their all.
After a day of filming, Ni Dahong couldn't help but post a message on Weibo: "Perhaps we really should reflect on ourselves. We can't wait until we're ashamed to realize that we need to change."
Many people know that he participated in the filming of "Crazy Speed," so his Weibo post is really intriguing, immediately sparking speculation among netizens and inadvertently making it to the top of the trending searches.
He didn't respond after that, so everyone could only guess that something must have happened to the crew of "Crazy Speed".
Time flies, and three months have passed quickly. During these three months, Chen Jincheng has gotten used to the days of filming on set.
Anyway, Old Chen did all the dirty and hard work; he just gave some pointers to the actors.
When he was truly exhausted, it was only when he worked overtime at night explaining the script to the two leading ladies. They lacked confidence in the script and needed him to explain it to them in detail every day.
Moreover, sometimes, actresses who had worked with Cheng would visit the set, which added to his enjoyment.
Another day passed, and in the hotel, Chen Jincheng had just finished explaining the script to Long Ni when he suddenly received an email message.
Upon opening it, he frowned slightly at the contents; it was an invitation from Kuaishou to attend their IPO bell-ringing ceremony.
It seems that Chen Yixiao wrote this email himself, rather than using a standardized one, and the content even contained a hint of his own opinion.
The gist of it is: now you know who's short-sighted, right? The listing date has arrived, and you've all participated in this bell-ringing ceremony, all thanks to me.
This is the victor's declaration.
Long Ni was unaware of the meaning behind the invitation. Leaning against Chen Jincheng, she said happily, "Mr. Chen, after Kuaishou goes public, your assets will increase significantly, right?"
"Money is just a string of numbers, there's no need to worry about it," Chen Jincheng said with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, it's easy for you to talk when you're not in the same boat!" Zhang Tianai stopped what she was doing and looked up at him.
Chen Jincheng smiled but remained silent.
Online, news that Kuaishou was about to be launched had already spread like wildfire, quickly becoming headline news, and everyone was discussing it.
Kuaishou is now like a rapidly moving war machine, advancing with an unstoppable momentum, heading straight for its IPO and bell-ringing ceremony.
Chen Yixiao is currently enjoying the most success, with several media outlets conducting exclusive interviews with him.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, he smiled. Chen Jincheng must have seen the invitation too. He wondered if the other party could still be so arrogant now.
At the bell-ringing ceremony, he would slap the other person's face until it was swollen.
This is not the end. He has already found the capital to take over Chen Jincheng's shares and has figured out how to deal with Chen Jincheng. When the time comes, the other party will be kicked out of the company in a very embarrassing way.
He only hoped that the other party would be sensible and not allow them to resort to such methods. (End of Chapter)
