Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

After making sure that the campus rebirth article would not have much impact on her life, Zuo Zhizhi put it behind her and ignored it.

No matter what, Liu Momo would never take the initiative to tell others the fact that she was reborn.

No matter how much you guess or try, you will never know what happened in your previous life.

In this case, there is no need to spend too much time on this aspect.

Since this is an ordinary campus rebirth novel, the main story is that the heroine has been wronged, so she is reborn to change her own destiny, which may not be a big change for other people.

Zuo Zhizhi had been idle for a long time, but at Ms. Mo's strong request, she started to do her own work.

Perhaps her inaction had already caused public outrage, so everyone agreed to this plan, forcing her to work hard.

It had been a long time since she last filmed a TV series, and she had been a slacker for long enough, so Zuo Zhizhi decided to try again.

All the scripts they had filmed before were detective stories, so Zuo Zhizhi wanted to film something different.

In addition, there were quite a few love stories around her, which gave her a lot of inspiration, so she set her sights on romance dramas.

Ordinary modern romance dramas are not very interesting. They are either undeniably sweet and loving from beginning to end, or two people in love hate each other and kill each other, and finally find a high-quality, rich and handsome man again.

Zuo Zhizhi has no opinion on these romance TV dramas. Although she enjoys watching them, it is still somewhat difficult to actually film them.

So she set her sights on ancient romance dramas.

It is also the most typical and popular ancient love drama about two rivals!

Although costume dramas are more expensive, many costume dramas have been filmed by various crews in recent years, and there are also many in-house companies, so a lot of money can be saved on costumes and props.

When Zuo Zhizhi has nothing to do, she starts selecting scripts in the company. Although the theme has been determined, it still takes some time to find a project that she likes.

After all, ancient costume romances must have enough highlights, but they cannot be too melodramatic, otherwise they will only attract criticism.

The scale in the middle is really difficult to control, and a decision can only be made after detailed judgment.

As a low-budget web drama, it doesn't need to be too closely aligned with history, but it also cannot deviate too much from it.

Zuo Zhizhi carefully selected and finally chose a script that she was satisfied with.

The hero and heroine met at a wedding banquet, but unfortunately, neither of them was the quiet and inactive type, so they fought at the wedding banquet, turning the wedding upside down.

After the two ran out hand in hand, they found out that the other person was actually someone they knew. However, after all, it was not glorious to cause a scene at a wedding, so the two decided to keep their mouths shut.

As for what happened afterwards, it was naturally a normal meeting between the two of them, but since they had not gotten along since childhood, quarrels were inevitable. However, after what happened last time, they had more tacit understanding.

Later, although the two people kept quarreling in their daily interactions, they gradually developed feelings for each other and finally became a pair of bickering lovers.

In general, the story content is not complicated, and the story scenes are relatively simple, most of which take place inside the house or in the garden.

Therefore, apart from the two wedding scenes, which cost more money, there were basically no problems with the other parts.

As for the male and female protagonists, the quirky female protagonist and the cool-looking but actually funny male protagonist, they are a perfect match.

Moreover, the two have quite a few rival scenes, so as long as the highlights can be captured, attracting some CP fans will be no problem at all.

Zuo Zhizhi was very satisfied with this. After all, this drama was relatively simple, with only more than ten episodes in total, so it was not that stressful for her.

It is definitely the best choice as it allows you to find something to do without making yourself too tired.

After finalizing the script, Zuo Zhizhi began to coordinate various tasks, such as the most important costumes, props, and venues.

Because the company has also filmed some TV series in recent years, I can borrow the costumes from them. I only need some new clothes, and the rest can be matched with old clothes.

As for props, most of them can be found in stock. Even if they are not available, you can ask someone to make them for you or buy similar cheap styles online.

These two aspects are not very difficult. After all, we have a background and there is no need to start from scratch.

As for the last part, the venue is indeed a problem.

After all, you have to rent someone else's shooting location, so you need to coordinate with other crews and make time for your own shooting.

Zuo Zhizhi went to see the scene. Although it was slightly different from what she had imagined, it was not a big problem. It only needed a simple modification and could be used directly on site.

I made a simple time plan and decided that there was no need to rent for too long, just two or three months, so I started looking for someone.

Of course, the most important thing is the actors.

It is relatively easy to find supporting roles. After all, the Actors Guild has many talented but not famous actors, and there is no problem in inviting them to join your own crew.

But the most important things are the male and female protagonists and several important supporting roles.

First of all, as a costume romance drama, the appearance of the leading actor is the first priority. Even acting skills can be put aside a little. He must have enough appearance to be liked by everyone.

Zuo Zhizhi resolutely refused to make any concessions on this point, even if the male and female protagonists were not famous. As long as they were good-looking enough, everything else would be fine.

Although it is her own TV series, Zuo Zhizhi cannot be too stingy and must give corresponding remuneration.

After looking at the price list of actors, Zuo Zhizhi found that the actors she liked were all very expensive, and her own small treasury would definitely not be enough.

Should I admit defeat to my mother now and ask her to come forward?

Zuo Zhizhi immediately dismissed the idea, saying it was too early to say anything about it, so they could look for other actors for the time being.

As for those actors whose abilities were slightly weaker, Zuo Zhizhi originally thought that she could just sign them because they were cheap, but unfortunately, after watching two scenes, she decided to give up.

Although appearance comes first, acting skills are also very important!

If the facial expressions are exactly the same, anger and rage are completely indistinguishable, and even worse, the lines are read like an emotionless machine, how could anyone watch such a TV series!

Even though looks are important, at least the acting should be acceptable, so that others don’t mention it as “Oh, the acting is really bad” in a TV series.

After interviewing actor after actor, Zuo Zhizhi looked at the empty cast list and felt like crying without tears!
