“Acting as a gangster in the morning and taking sick leave in the afternoon. That’s right, that’s me,” a viewer commented, capturing the humor of the situation.
“There’s no need to rehearse in advance for the unit drills. The plot content will be arranged at the last minute, and the actors are free to act their hearts out.”
“There was one time when I participated in a routine drill. 1 played the role of a hooligan with an iron rod and broke the explosion-proof shield with a few hits. The colleague who played the security guard was so scared that he looked at me strangely.”
“I suddenly thought of a brother who was kicked away by a passerby during a drill.”
“Brothers, here comes our chance!”
Chen Yu’s chat couldn’t help but laugh, as they knew Chen Yu understood the mentality of the current generation’s youngsters all too well.
The main thing was to let go of oneself.
When they were in kindergarten and elementary school, they fought to play the role of the hero.
After growing up, acting like a bad guy?
That was just showing one’s true colors.
“This drama has received a lot of criticism online,” Chen Yu said.
“It has become a tool for countless commentators. If the media wants to comment and complain to attract traffic, they must follow it and find out what’s wrong.”
“While the media is using this drama to attract attention and traffic, isn’t it also helping to promote this drama? That’s why I said that bad PR is also PR.”
“If you spend thousands or tens of thousands to participate in a web drama, you can leave a permanent image of yourself to many others. Think about it carefully. Is there really no one interested?”
Nono pursed his lips.
She knew it made sense.
A large group of university students who had no acting experience would pay to participate in the filming of important plots.
Even if they didn’t have any acting skills, they were rich.
The web drama filmed by her girlfriend had long been cursed to the heavens.
Even if it got worse, how bad could it be?
Once the problem of manpower had been solved, all they needed was money for the continuation of the film shoot.
She could charge for any important role, and paying for a custom role seemed to really solve the crew’s financial problem.
“Dr. Chen, these university students don’t have a job. Can they afford that much money?” Nono argued.
“Even if some students come from wealthy families, they are still a minority. Most students only have one or two thousand yuan for their living expenses. It’s impossible for them to take a loan to act.”
“This would be scamming them. It’s not a problem for them to act for free, but I’m afraid they won’t be able to pay for it.”
Nono thought of a new problem. Not all college students were wealthy. More than 90% of university students were children from ordinary families.
“I just finished talking about starting the layout,” Chen Yu said with a smile. “Why did you retract your vision? Other than putting up recruitment posters in the university, don’t those who are already working have the same idea, especially the fans of the male and female leads? They are all very interested in acting with their idols. They’ll probably fight on the spot if you don’t start an auction.”
At this moment, the chat was getting more and more heated.
The next five episodes were no longer web dramas. It had truly become a combination of cosplay and scripted live-action, as Chen Yu had said.
“Think about it,” Chen Yu said. “If you participate in the follow-up filming of this drama and act as a character in it, will your parents and relatives pursue this drama?”
“Definitely!” Nono stood up immediately.
Whether a web drama could profit depended on the number of viewers. The more viewers there were, the more revenue the website earned from advertising.
Be it college students or members of society, the amateurs who dared to participate in the filming were probably all social bulls. They would definitely call their friends to watch it, and this continued to attract attention for this web drama.
After being in love with her girlfriend for many years, Nono gained some knowledge about the operation of film and television dramas.
The more Nono thought about it, the more excited she became.
The university students and young people participating in the filming had their function in attracting more popularity.
Chen Yu’s ghostly suggestion in front of millions of viewers had already become a powerful topic of discussion.
“Little beauty, Dr. Chen’s suggestion is definitely promising. Hurry up and call your girlfriend. If she really follows Dr. Chen’s instructions and shoots the next five episodes, I guarantee that I’ll buy the entire episode and watch it from beginning to end. No matter how disgusting it is, I won’t fast-forward it.”
“Me too.”
“Is it possible that a layman could act more seriously than some hooligans?”
“I’m dying of laughter. This was supposed to be a shit film that no one wanted to watch. Now, everyone in the country knows about it.”
“It’s hard to say how much they can save on other expenses, but they’ll definitely save on publicity expenses. I’ll go catch up on the first twenty-five episodes later.”
“I’m studying film photography and production. Can I register in advance?”
“Take a look. This production team is different. In addition to providing an internship certificate, they can also provide a houseman position.”
“If the crowdfunding raises the money and requests a side story of humans fighting aliens, may I ask how the director will respond?”
The ordinary viewers joked and expressed interest in watching the web drama.
Viewers with film industry backgrounds smiled wryly. This time, it would be difficult for this web drama not to become popular.
Countless viewers were watching the livestream, and this was the best publicity tool imaginable.
It was estimated that this drama would be trending tonight. Once the popularity continued, the sponsors would definitely change their minds.
As for Chen Yu’s method, it could only be said to be suitable for this production team. For others, the amount of money spent on filming was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
The filming of the web drama directed by Nono’s girlfriend was nearing its end. The costumes and props were all ready. The only thing they lacked was a small amount of money.
If it were before filming started, Chen Yu’s proposal of paying to participate in the show would not be feasible.
“Thank you for your advice, Dr. Chen.”
“I’ll call my girlfriend right away.” Nono was overjoyed.
“Ah, Dr. Chen, there’s something I want to discuss with you,” Nono said, a hint of embarrassment in her voice.
“Please speak,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile.
“My girlfriend and I are scheduled to get married next year. When our baby is born, can you give our child a name?”
The chat fell silent.
While they had already witnessed women getting married through another livestream, that didn’t mean that a gay couple could give birth.
Could it be that foreign technology had advanced to the point where women could still get pregnant and give birth?
“Of course you can,” Chen Yu said with a smile. “According to my analysis, your child will be very healthy.”
After a while, someone posted a paid comment. “It should be an adopted child, right?”
“Who told you that I’m a woman?” Nono asked unhappily.
As soon as this was said, the viewers who were discussing it animatedly felt as if lightning had struck them.
No matter from which angle, Nono was a genuine beauty.
Her body looked soft and delicate, and she was adorned with a head full of black, long hair.
How could she not be a woman?
The amount of information was overwhelming, and the minds of the netizens raced. In an instant, a phrase popped into the heads of everyone in the live broadcast room….
