Gradually, Huo Dong's eyes shifted to the creative team. The reason for this is that, as the former king of the food chain, how could he not pay attention to the top of the entertainment industry ecosystem?

In the entertainment industry, capital is indeed very important, big stars are equally important, and even all kinds of technical talents are equally important. But without the content created by the creative team, everything else is fake, it is nothing more than a castle in the air.

This is very different from other industries.

For example, industrial, factory construction and operation can be used to pile up money, and technicians and workers can be hired with high salaries, and basically all can be solved with capital. If it cannot be solved by 10 million, then it will cost 100 million.

However, it is completely different in the entertainment industry. If the screenwriter cannot write a script and the director cannot draw a storyboard, how do you ask the actors to perform? Should you let the big stars play monkeys?

In creation, capital does not play a key role, what is needed is the inspiration of the creator. No matter how much money you give, you will be blind when you run out of inspiration, and you will not be able to help even if you ask gods and worship Buddhas. Even if you kill the screenwriter and director, it is useless.

Therefore, one of the iron laws of the entertainment industry - the creative team, at any time, is above everything!

It should be noted that what we are talking about here is status, not income.

For example, for example, the executive director Liu Shi, who ranked the lowest in the crew of "The Palace", may earn only 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, but his working time will last throughout the entire fifty episodes, and even the early and late time will be added.

Even the smallest supporting roles, such as the two Huayi students, have a pay of 6,000 yuan per episode. In terms of unit time, it actually exceeds that of Liu Shi, the executive director.

However, on the other hand, did those two Chinese art students dare to offend Liu Shi? Even the most marginal scene-written drama business in the creative group, no actor dares to offend. Including those big stars, they would never deliberately offend the creative group. Otherwise, they would commit suicide in their careers.

In fact, in the eyes of the creative team, even those big stars are tool people. I am really dissatisfied and can be replaced at any time. It is really not what those outsiders and laymen imagined. Big stars are not the highest class in the entertainment industry ecosystem.

Of course, big stars are very famous, very glorious, and very rich. One can be as good as a creative group as dozens or even hundreds. Therefore, the specific relationship is quite complex, and it is basically an interdependent relationship.

However, Huo Dong knew in his heart that the top level of any industry had nothing but mastering two things - resources and information. The creative team in the entertainment industry basically monopolized resources and information, so no matter the changes in the situation, their status will never be shaken.

...

“Cut!”

After the shooting of this set of shots, the actors in the scene walked towards their respective rest areas, photography and lighting, and other working groups, and they were immediately busy preparing for the next shot.

Guo Zifeng was dressed in a strange shape and waved to Huo Dong excitedly. In the camera just now, there was his... performance. As a background demon, I don’t know whether to pat his face. But no matter how it was, it was Guo Zifeng’s debut, and it was no wonder that he was so excited.

He smiled and applauded Guo Zifeng gently. Guo Zifeng seemed to be greatly encouraged, waved his fists and ran to take off his makeup.

Huo Dong's eyes turned and he was about to continue observing the work of the working group, but suddenly he heard someone shouting beside him: "Little brother, are you a director? Have you gained anything after watching it for so long?"

Huo Dong turned his head and saw Liu Shi coming towards him. He hurriedly greeted: "Director Liu, thank you for your hard work."

Liu Shi smiled and waved his hand, as if he was signaling not to be so serious: "Haha, there are very few students in the director department like you now. They are willing to stay in the crew and learn something solidly. Or students are eager to write some nonsense scripts, go everywhere to invest, and be a director by themselves? Dreaming about becoming famous every day, and reaching the top of the sky to catch girls. What a joke. If you don't lose a few layers of skin in the crew, can you have the beauty of playing girls? Oh, little brother, what do you call me?"

"…, Huo Dong. Director Liu, you can call me Dongzi."

Huo Dong looked confused. He understood that Liu Shi must have misunderstood something.

Actually, it’s not that Liu Shi is wrong. Generally, interns who come to the crew will not go to the show if they are stupid. Some even have scheming, they will deliberately approach the director and star, hoping to seize any opportunity.

Therefore, only those in the director's department will be interested in the standing position of Huo Dong. In particular, Huo Dong has always observed it very seriously, which has long attracted the attention of the expert Liu Shi.

Of course, Liu Shi knew that Huo Dong was a student who had just arrived, and he was the one who received him yesterday. But he didn't know that Huo Dong was just an idol trainee and would not care about it.

Just like a hospital has a group of interns, and the medical school and nursing school are mixed together, the old doctors in the hospital can tell who is who? When telling the case, it is very likely that the misunderstanding of the nursing school is to be a medical school student, and directly impart medical knowledge, so that the nurses and ladies can directly see the mosquito-coil eyes.

It’s just that Liu Shi is in a good mood today. When he saw Huo Dong, a junior in the “director department”, he felt more friendly and was willing to come over to chat: “Dongzi, don’t be so restrictive, call me Brother Shitou. How many years of school in class is worse than going to the crew a few times. If you encounter any problems, you can ask me. This crew is a big production, and the opportunity is rare. Do you have to be more attentive?”

If you say these words, you can’t say anything different. They are nothing more than a few polite words from the seniors to the younger generation.

Huo Dong also understood that this was a politeness. He was not ready to explain the misunderstandings clearly. He found that the opportunity was rare, so he quickly asked a few small questions he had discovered just now before Liu Shi left:

"Brother Shitou, there is really."

"Oh? Tell me." Liu Shi stopped, a little surprised.

"I just discovered that those...

“…”

The questions Huo Dong asked were not complicated, they were nothing more than some workflows. In fact, Huo Dong had all guesses. Since there was such an expert around him now, it would be just right to confirm and see if his guess was correct.

However, Liu Shi was very comfortable to ask such questions. Because they were not complicated, they could be explained clearly in just a few words and did not require much slap. In particular, Liu Shi also felt that Huo Dong had a very high "understanding". These questions were asked at the very beginning, and they were not something that could be learned in class, but they had to pay attention to the crew to make such discoveries.

So after the answer was finished, Liu Shi happily patted Huo Dong on the shoulder: "Dongzi, you are very good. In our industry, there are never shortages of talented people, and even more so, those who are willing to work hard, but there are really few smart people! Hahaha..."
