Chen Xia, 25, has a lot of money at home. His father runs a fashion company.
Although they are the second generation of rich people, they do not like racing, drinking, disco, famous watches, picking up girls and so on as ordinary people think of this group.
I usually watch dramas, brush my Weibo and fight against shadows, and play free nostalgic online games such as Super Mario, a gold miner, at work. Therefore, those friends who are also well off give him the nickname of "Chen Sheng Ren".
At the weekend, Chen Xia just went to the kitchen after taking a bath and wiping her wet hair with a towel, and took out an iced coke from the refrigerator.
In the living room, my sister Chenguo is sitting on the sofa, looking at the flat plate, and stepping on the tea table barefoot.
Chen Xia walks over and takes a look at the ancient costume play "Two Worlds' Luck", and can't help laughing.
"Look at your favorite Bai Luoluo again. She is beautiful and right, but you are not bad for your sister. Why are you so fond of her? Last time, you bought 20000 albums at 10 yuan a time, silly?"
Bai Luoluo is one of the four new generation Huadan, with more than 50 million followers.
Chenguo raised his head and glared at his brother: "I saved the lucky money myself, and I want you to take care of it!"
Chen Xia sat down next to her and said, "Of course I don't care about your money, but I saw this play. It was nothing more than the love between the hero and the heroine in the previous life. After the male leader was reincarnated, the female leader began to chase the male leader from scratch. Look at this plastic prop, the special effect that makes people play, and it can't be seen from the beginning to the end at twice the speed."
"This play is very popular! Every episode has more than 100 million hits, and it has been searched several times!" Chenguo is obviously not satisfied.
"The broadcast is high, but why don't you look at the scores of websites like mung bean and eggplant?"
Chenxia drinks another mouthful of Coke.
"Besides the first hot search on Weibo, which one is not complaining about the play, such as" the male leading role is stiff "or" the five cents special effect "."
"Now, except for some variety shows, what does TV series change the original work into? Although there is a dark horse occasionally, the overall level is not a bit poor..."
Before Chen Xia finished speaking, a pillow was thrown over and almost smashed the Coke in his hand.
"I love watching it. You are not allowed to say that our family plays in vain!"
Chenguo kicked his brother's thigh with his foot and said, "If you have the ability, you can shoot it. It's annoying for people like you to talk about 'I can shoot with my eyes closed'. Anyway, bragging doesn't cost money. Who can tell others what to do?"
"Don't move."
Chen Xia grabbed her sister's ankle and said, "You think I'm talking big. If you want me to shoot you, it's absolutely awesome."
The girl laughed and said, "Go ahead, you will eat and die in your father's company all day long."
Chen Xiadun's eyes widened.
As the son of the company's president, Chenxia was assigned to his father's company after graduating from university. Of course, no one dares to manage him.
The work will be assigned to other colleagues by the supervisor, who will be relaxed every day, and others will be polite to him.
Now Chenguo's words seemed to hurt him.
"Just shoot it, for nothing else, just to save your kind of brain who only watch idols and ignore the plot... fans!"
Chen Xia shakes off her sister's ankle.
He wanted to say "brain powder", but he thought it over, after all, it was not particularly appropriate.
"Bragging!"
Chenguo curled his hands in front of his chest.
They argued with each other, but they were angry.
Chen Xia didn't say anything more, but locked herself into the bedroom.
Lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling, my mind drifted.
Filming is still the idea of an online movie in college.
The plot is probably an online movie that exposes the reality that a pair of lovers are very fond of each other, but a woman suddenly turns to a man who has more money than her boyfriend.
He was really angry, but because college life was too leisurely and long, his idea of filming gradually faded.
After graduation, he naturally went to work in his father's fashion company until today three years later.
Now, suddenly excited by my sister, the idea that occasionally appeared in the university came alive again.
"Is it feasible to shoot?"
Chenxia murmured, got up from the bed, took out the notebook with a layer of ash in the drawer, opened it, and began to write.
[What is the most powerful thing to shoot if you want to shoot a movie?]
[What conditions are required?]
[Is 20 million yuan in your bank card enough now?]
These are the first three questions he wrote down.
First question.
Chen Xia first thought of the plot. Only if the plot is wonderful enough can he attract the audience's desire to see it.
However, Chen Xia always feels that it is not enough, because there are many movies and TV works with wonderful plots. He will forget when he sees them from the beginning to the end.
This is not what he wants. What he wants is to make the audience remember and even remember.
A sense of participation.
Chen Xia's brain quickly jumps out of these three words.
If the audience can participate, will they have feelings for the work itself?
What if the audience can influence or even decide the plot trend?
It is up to the audience to define the work, create the achievements of the protagonist, and decide the outcome
Instead of looking at the name or introduction or the original work, they will say "oh" and understand that this is a palace fight drama, this is a Republic of China sadist drama, this is a terrorist suspense drama
Without looking at it, you already know the content of the work and even the ending, so there is no sense of expectation.
The works without fixed plot trend, or those whose content is decided by the audience itself or even regretful because of their own choice, are awesome!
Chen Xia is brainstorming.
What kind of film and television works can achieve the above effects?
In all the films and TV plays he has seen since childhood, none of them can do it.
The plot is wonderful, but the sense of participation seems impossible. After all, film and television dramas are not open world online games, and 3D4D5D technology is just to enhance the sense of immersion.
……
Regular films and TV plays are not good. Chen Xia thinks of the self-made short films he has seen on Douying or other video websites.
Interactive video!
It suddenly occurred to him that this novel form of work.
This idea has only arisen in the last two years. Chen Xia first found it in the OUO station, the largest bullet screen video website in the country.
At that time, when he saw the words "interactive video", he thought about how video could interact.
But when the video was opened, the option box suddenly appeared. Chen Xia did not believe that the location was really successful.
At the same time, the selection also really affected the progress of the follow-up plot, which was very fresh, but the video was only a few minutes long, with stiff content and poor conditions.
Chen Xia wondered what chemical reaction would happen if interactive videos were used in high cost movies and TV plays.
Let the audience participate in the choice of the protagonist's follow-up action, and let the audience decide the plot trend, happy ending or bad ending? Or did you never expect ending? The male leader finally chooses female one or female two, or vice versa, or -- to die alone? You can even choose to let the protagonist live the life style that the audience likes... There are too many possibilities.
In just 20 minutes, Chen Xia's notebook has already written down three pages of creativity about the work in a dense and slightly scrawled way.
If seen by others, they will feel that there is light in his eyes, which is the excitement and passion they have not seen for a long time.
The first question has come to light.
But the second, more professional question baffled him.
Chen Xia had to open his computer with extremely serious light pollution, which was only playing games for tens of thousands of yuan before, open the browser, and use Du Niang to start searching.
Film and television companies, studios, business licenses, production and operation licenses of radio and television programs, composition of production teams
After checking for a few hours, Xia felt that she was about to become a big head. Finally, she decided to set up a studio first, and let's talk about other things after having her own team.
The third key issue is funding.
Chen Xia has saved more than 20 million yuan from the red envelopes given by relatives during the Spring Festival and the living expenses in high school and college. He began to find out about the rent of studios, film and television production units, such as shooting team costs, post technology, publicity and public relations, legal finance, etc
It lasted until very late.
----
Over there, Chenguo and his brother were not in the mood to watch TV dramas after their quarrel. After brushing their mobile phones for a while, they felt sleepy and went back to their room to sleep.
When I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, I saw a faint blue light in my brother's bedroom through the crack in the door.
'I don't really want to shoot.'
Thinking of his brother's expression when he quarreled with him, Chenguo felt a little abrupt.
'Just him?'
But soon he sniffed at it and thought to himself, 'I should be playing games', so he ignored it.
