Chapter 40 Four different, have fun.
Prosperous Entertainment.
In the tenth floor office, Zhao Yanjun is opening the web page.
There are many comments on the computer, most of which are negative, and most of which are criticized and accused.
Among negative comments, three main points are focused;
One is the distorted history and originally brutal Qin Shihuang, who directly wrote it as a benevolent political Qin Shihuang;
One is that the actor is not in place, and the uncle in his forties also plays the thirteen-year-old Qin Shihuang, who can't control it at all.
One is that the plot is a bit bloody, for example, when thirteen-year-old Ying Zheng heard rumors that he was not Ying Yiren's biological son, but was born to Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji, so he ran to Lu Buwei to verify the mystery of his life experience. The story line is not terrible, but what is terrible is the presentation. Ying Zheng said to Lu Buwei: "If you are my biological father, I would like to leave Qin with you, and I would rather wander around the world with you, nor would I be a beast who doesn't even know who his biological father is." The lines in this scene were criticized by the audience as "Qiong Yao Drama", and the scene was also very eye-catching.
"Don't I know these? I know! Just for the market, everything is necessary!"
Zhao Yanjun looked at the comments online, but his expression was calm.
Overall, the TV series "Qin Shihuang" is a failure, and it is considered a bad movie this year, but a bad movie does not mean that it cannot make money.
As a director, he earned a share of seven million.
Anyway, it's not a loss this time, so it's normal to be scolded.
Anyway, there are four directors and two screenwriters in the crew of "Qin Shihuang", and he is just one of them. Even if he is scolded, he will be scolded together, and it doesn't matter.
If anyone is not scolded in the entertainment industry, it will be natural to get used to it.
Just then, a knock on the door came.
"Please come in!"
Zhao Yanjun said.
The door opened, and a woman came in and said, "Director Zhao, Mr. Wang is looking for you!"
"knew!"
Zhao Yanjun stood up.
Arrive at Mr. Wang’s office.
In the office, there are various management books, performance books, entertainment books, etc. on the bookshelf, but the fur of these books is not broken, there is no trace of turning, it looks very clean and tidy. On the desk, there is a globe.
Mr. Wang sat on the office chair, as if interrogating a prisoner, looked at Zhao Yanjun coldly and said, "Close the door."
"yes!"
Zhao Yanjun closed the door directly.
Suddenly, there were only two people left in the office.
The office was set up and used sound insulation treatment. Even if there were a lot of quarrel inside, it would not be heard outside.
Mr. Wang said, "In order to film "Qin Shihuang", we spent 1 billion yuan. You said you needed to build an ancient city of the Qin Dynasty, and we spent money to build it; you said you wanted to build a palace, and we also spent money to build it; you said the picture should be real, and our armor, bows and crossbows, siege equipment, etc. are all exquisitely made!"
"What do you want, we give it to? But in the end, what are you shooting? The TV series you shoot is nonsense, logical errors, common sense errors, what are you doing!"
"The TV series "Qin Shihuang" is also called "Qin Shihuang" outside, which means filming a group of shitty things and messing around. You are not a junior high school student who has not graduated, right? Or a junior high school history book is taught by an English teacher! Many common sense mistakes are continuous!"
"Let an actor in his forties play the role of the thirteen-year-old Qin Shihuang, who is also called the girl in his twenties. What are you shooting like? What are you doing!"
Mr. Wang started to curse, which made the mountains and rivers so angry that the wind blew the clouds, the fighting to break through the sky, and the martial arts blew the universe.
Zhao Yanjun stood quietly, lowering his head, looking like he was accepting scolding.
It doesn’t matter if you get scolded!
Being scolded by the boss or being scolded by the big boss is nothing.
I’m afraid that one day the boss will stop scolding you, which will be the most dangerous then.
As for the TV series failing, it is even more impossible to fire him directly.
If you change to a new director, it may not be as good as his filming. If you change to a director, you are afraid that one crab is worse than another.
If he lost a battle, the emperor would directly chop the general's head, and the generals might have been killed by the emperor... Hearing Mr. Wang's scolding, Zhao Yanjun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qin Shihuang is still the emperor of the ages, and he is also a tyrant!" Mr. Wang said: "In history, many people only commented on Qin Shihuang's moments, saying that he wrote the same books and carriages are the same, and that he has the benefits of his unification. No one will whitewash Qin Shihuang, but in the TV series, you directly say that Qin Shihuang is benevolent and loving the people. What is this?"
"Every Chinese know that Qin Shihuang's name is cruel. I shoot like this for the needs of the market..."
Zhao Yanjun said firmly.
"The market needs it!" Mr. Wang said in confusion.
"Film and TV dramas are for whitewashing. The white turns into black and the black turns into white. What has happened in history is not important. What is important is what we need to happen in history?" Zhao Yanjun said: "Even Qin Hui can whitewash and Yue Fei can become a sinner who hinders the unification. Why can't Qin Shihuang be kind to politics and love the people?"
Mr. Wang: “…”
Finally, Mr. Wang said: "You make sense? But there are problems with the character setting. Qin Shihuang is not domineering, Zhao Ji is stupid and sweet, Lu Buwei has no cunning aura, and Empress Dowager Huayang is paralyzed..."
"These are market needs. A small amount is not a gentleman, and a non-toxic husband is not a husband. Back then, in order to run away, Liu Bang kicked his wife and children off the carriage; Xiang Yu said he wanted to kill Liu Bang's father, and Liu Bang said he would give me a bowl of soup. A real hero doesn't care about his wife and children. As the saying goes, if his wife dies, marry another one; if his son dies, he will give birth to another one..."
"This is true for Qin Yiren, Lu Buwei, and so for Lao Ai. Qin Yiren will not give up running away because of his wife and children; Lao Ai will not kill him again because of his two children. But in order to create a youth idol drama, such a plot must be created!"
"There is also the Empress Dowager Huayang. In history, this Empress Dowager was from Chu. She supported Qin Yiren and Qin Wangzheng. She did not launch a coup and imprisoned Qin Yiren. But in order to shape the rebels and plot conflicts, this scene was added."
"There is also the title of marquis, which is likely to be accused of a traitor, or to balance Lu Buwei's needs, rather than military merits. After all, Bai Qi did not have the title of marquis, and Lao Ai could not be a marquis for military merits. But in order to restrict Lu Buwei, the power of marquis was restricted to expand. Lao Ai's rebellion may be Lu Buwei's indulgence and plot, and Empress Dowager Huayang's plot. The two factions joined forces to attack the Zhao faction... But for the needs of the company's plot, it is necessary to create a silly and sweet and bloody plot."
Zhao Yanjun said, talking about the character layout and character.
This director understands history very well and has a good analysis of some historical figures, but he knows better about youth idol dramas.
He has filmed youth idol dramas many times.
There are many idol drama elements in historical dramas.
In addition, some palace fighting dramas have been very popular recently, and are mixed with elements of palace fighting.
During the filming of the TV series "Qin Shihuang", there is a historical atmosphere, youth idol elements, and palace fighting elements. The three are superimposed together to create an annual drama and become a hit TV series.
It’s a pity that the audience didn’t buy it, but instead scolded this one for being bad and that one for not being bad.
In this issue, the audience's quality is really poor and the appreciation ability is really poor.
Mr. Wang listened, gritted his teeth and understood a little.
Isn’t this the four-dimensional character?
Simply filming idol dramas may be popular.
Just shooting palace dramas will also make a hit.
Just shooting historical dramas will also make a hit.
But if the three are superimposed together, they will be a bad movie.
It’s like a dish that contains fewer seasonings and tastes good; if there are too many seasonings, the taste is poor.
In fact, if the historical drama "Qin Shihuang" is simply filming, it will be very popular, but the director and screenwriter are too determined and want to superimpose many elements and perfectly sublimate them, which will turn into a bad movie.
Chapter completed!
