Chapter 465: Chapter 465 The Production Team Can Give Students an Intern Certificate
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Nono suspected that she had misheard, and the viewers were stunned.
The crew needed eight million yuan to finish filming the last five episodes, and Chen Yu suggested going to a university to seek sponsorship? This method did not sound reliable.
Many university students and teachers were watching the livestream, so they more or less knew the specific situation.
Universities would indeed sponsor movies and dramas sometimes. However, the requirements were stringent. It had to be the kind of film that was positive and showed off the campus.
This web drama was simply difficult to describe in a few words… The label was Crime Mystery, and the content was anything else but that. Miracle Doctor, Frankenstein, God, Alien. In any case, it was not a positive film.
“Someone come quickly! The principal is so angry that he fainted!”
“Dr. Chen is a genius. His ideas are also evil.”
“Only a ghost would invest in this lousy online drama.”
“Little miss, you should persuade your girlfriend to give up. I’ve watched the first ten episodes of this web drama that she filmed. Other than the bad points, there’s nothing good about it.”
“Bad PR is still PR. Who knows, there might be a surprise? Besides, this is Dr. Chen’s idea. He won’t scam anyone, right?”
The chat was instantly divided into two groups.
The viewers, who had never watched this lousy drama, thought they should lie flat and do whatever they wanted.
There were extremely strict standards for universities to sponsor films and dramas. If this web drama were really as terrible as the others said… it wouldn’t succeed.
The other netizens who had watched the drama had the opposite opinion. Bad PR was also PR. Web dramas were always ridiculous to the extreme, and the reversals and imagination in them were bizarre.
There were many netizens waiting every day for updates on the official Weibo account of the online drama production team.
Following Chen Yu’s suggestion, she should try to find some universities to attract investors; perhaps there would really be an unexpected gain.
Nono was utterly dumbfounded. She had also gone to university, and it was a famous university. She had never seen the school sponsor any movies or dramas.
“Dr. Chen, is it really possible to get sponsorship from a university?” she asked. “If it’s feasible, can you please be more specific?”
“Which university should we go to? What should 1 say when I see the person-in-charge?”
Thinking of Chen Yu’s omnipotent abilities, Nono more or less regained some confidence.
“One of the comments is right,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile. “Even if it’s blacklisted, it’s still popular.”
“It can also be a topic of discussion and have the same exposure. As for which university to go to, it’s up to you.”
Chen Yu’s words rendered Nono speechless. What do you mean by that? There were dozens of local key and non-key universities. Do I have to visit every single university? Wasn’t this just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse?
“Dr. Chen, please stop joking. I’m dying of anxiety,” Nono said. “There are so many universities in our area. It will take at least twenty days to visit them one by one.”
“My girlfriend can’t wait that long.”
With a sobbing tone, Nono told Chen Yu that the production team had already run out of salary a week ago.
The male and female leads and the male and female second leads were still okay with it. On the other hand, the other extras—lighting, styling, props, and stage team—were all owed wages.
In the past two days, people have already left one after another. His girlfriend and investor could wait, but these staff members couldn’t. Also, the rent for the hotel had also expired. Almost all the people from the three departments had left. Once the hotel chased them out, the movie was completely over.
Therefore, let alone 20 days, the production team would fall apart in a week.
“I know you’re anxious, but don’t be anxious,” Chen Yu consoled with a smile.
“You interrupted me before 1 could finish my sentence,” Chen Yu consoled with a smile.
“In other words, there’s a chance?” Nono’s sorrow turned into joy.
“Of course,” Chen Yu said, nodding. “I’m not referring to randomly finding a university to get sponsorship.
“Instead, randomly find a few universities and put up posters for actors.”
“If I’m not wrong, does the boss who invested in this movie have a film company under his name?”
“I think so,” Nono thought for a moment and said. “Yes, he does have one.”
“If there’s a film company, it’ll naturally have an official seal,” Chen Yu continued.
“In other words, your girlfriend’s production team can issue an internship certificate to the students.”
Hearing this, the viewers widened their eyes.
All right, so this was Chen Yu’s plan.
Nono, who had attended university before, roughly understood Chen Yu’s meaning.
“Dr. Chen, do you mean to say that we can use the internship certificate issued by the production team in exchange for the students acting as extras for free?”
“If that’s the case, it’s a good idea.”
“Although this can save some money, we still need money to solve other problems.”
Just as Chen Yu was about to speak, his chat rushed to answer.
“Miss, why are you so silly! Dr. Chen’s move is brilliant. Not only will it save a little money, but it will also solve the problem of the shortage of manpower in the service.”
“Stage art design and production, drama, film, and art design. If you’re interested, you can learn more.”
“There are countless majors in university. You can always find what your production team needs.”
“As long as you provide food and accommodation, and give the participating students an internship certificate, they’ll do it for free.”
A large number of students and viewers enthusiastically expressed their opinions, believing that Chen Yu’s idea was definitely promising.
Although university students had little social experience, they were easy to manage.
Moreover, there were many skills. Make-up artists, prop artists, and costume artists were all jobs that students could do.
Other than that, there were also the crew, stage managers, artists, sound engineers, and lighting engineers.
University students were all very interested in giving these jobs a try.
If they couldn’t be the main person in charge, there shouldn’t be a problem for these students to be assistants, right?
Food and lodging were provided, and in the end, they could get an internship certificate.
During this period, they could also witness the entire filming of the online drama and experience a different life.
It was simply awesome.
Usually, visiting these sites requires money. Now that they could participate in the filming of web dramas and get all kinds of benefits, only a fool would be unhappy.
Of course, the extras who participated in the filming had to be paid under normal circumstances.
However, due to the poverty of this production team, the students automatically ignored the rewards they deserved.
A few dozen yuan a day was nothing to the students. Most importantly, it was fun and novel. There was also an internship certificate.
“Can this really solve the problem?” Nono looked at the chat uncertainly.
What the viewers said seemed to make sense. Sixty percent of the remuneration for the main actors had already been paid in advance, so these people were not in a hurry to leave.
On the contrary, the other crew members were highly anxious. Most of them had already left, leaving only two or three behind.
While it was true that they could go to universities to put up recruitment posters and invite students to act as extras and interns, immediately getting their crew.
But for some reason, Nono felt uneasy. She felt like she had missed something.
“Of course, this won’t solve the problem.” Chen Yu’s following words once again caused Nono’s heart to sink to the bottom of the valley..
