1123: I'm really afraid of something! (Leader of Big G)
TV series and movies can be roughly divided into three types:
The first one is both popular and popular.
With good reputation and good ratings, this kind of TV series may not be released every year, but when it is released, it is a high-quality series that has been broadcast for a long time and will be rebroadcast by TV stations every year.
For example, people of Wen Ying's generation have deep childhood memories. They will replay "Journey to the West" and "The Legend of the White Snake" during winter and summer vacations, and later added "Huan Zhuge Ge".
These TV series were very popular when they first aired. When they are rerun, old viewers are still willing to watch them again and new viewers will be attracted.
Classics can stand the test of time. Classic TV series create classic characters. If an actor is lucky enough to star in such a classic TV series, he or she can even enjoy the role bonus for a lifetime.
Of course, such classic dramas are hard to come by. The script, production and actors are all indispensable. A small star relies on praise, and a big star relies on fate. Wen Ying does know a few TV dramas that will become popular in the future, but even if
She is willing to put down her bottom line and become a literary copywriter, but there is no guarantee that she can copy a classic.
Maybe the director was changed, the actors were changed, or even the broadcast time was wrong, but the original classic was ruined by Wen Ying.
What's more, it's impossible for Wen Ying to be a copywriter. Her moral bottom line does not allow her to do so. Moreover, she has been reborn once, and she still only knows how to copy. Doesn't Lawyer Wen have no face?
The second type is that it is popular but not popular.
It is a TV series that is well-produced and has a good reputation, but its ratings are not satisfactory.
If it’s a good shot, will the audience watch it?
No, it won’t work if the material is poorly chosen, the audience is too narrow, even if a small group of viewers rate it highly, and it doesn’t meet the aesthetics of the majority of the audience.
TV that is suitable for the whole family to watch together has a greater chance of achieving high ratings.
Classic dramas such as "Journey to the West", "The Legend of White Snake", and "Huan Zhu Princess" are suitable for the whole family to sit in front of the TV and watch together.
The TV remote control is a manifestation of the family's right to speak. Most students like Wen Ying cannot control the remote control at home. What the parents watch is what the students watch.
If you want to watch Baodao idol dramas, unless the satellite TV station introduces them, you can only rent video discs and watch them secretly when your parents are not at home.
Of course, idol dramas are neither popular nor popular. This is simply the type of drama that most parents want to suppress!
The third type is that it is popular but not popular.
The ratings may be good and the popularity may be high, but it cannot escape the category of bad movies. The script that screenwriter Zhang prepared for Li Mengjiao falls into this category.
As for the TV dramas that are neither popular nor popular, Wen Ying doesn't even bother to count them. The production is poor, the script is poor, the actors act blindly, and the directors blindly direct. Such dramas are destined to fill the film library from the day they are completed.
Knowing that the script given by screenwriter Zhang would be a hit in the ratings, Wen Ying could not go against her conscience and say that screenwriter Zhang was not fulfilling her responsibilities.
They did provide valuable scripts.
As for whether it's a bad movie or not, it probably doesn't matter in the eyes of screenwriter Zhang and Yuan Fenghui.
So what if it’s a bad movie?
If you can become a famous actor and make money, what else can you say about it?
Facing Yuan Fenghui's questioning, Wen Ying's mind turned rapidly. She had to find a suitable reason.
"Teacher Yuan, do you still remember the suspension of "Meteor Garden"?"
In February 2002, "Meteor Garden", the originator of Baodao idol drama, landed on major mainland TV stations and set off a viewing frenzy. However, it was stopped after only 6 episodes. Wen Ying's generation only watched the complete drama through pirated discs.
.
Why?
This is because the show has had a huge negative impact on young people. The money worship that permeates the whole show has made the Radio, Film and Television Bureau very wary. Teenagers like it, but parents collectively oppose it. No matter how high the commercial value is, it has never been able to withstand the situation of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau.
The suspension ban!
In terms of genre, there is no essential difference between the script given by screenwriter Zhang and "Meteor Garden". They both have the configuration of the female protagonist Cinderella and male characters, with fancy clothes, luxury cars and mansions, and millions of pocket money. These settings are all
It is not in line with the current national conditions.
It is unlikely that the show will be suspended, but Wen Ying said that the show still does not conform to domestic social values.
Of course, Wen Ying remembered that after the TV series was finally shot and broadcast by Baodao, it was introduced to the mainland satellite TV station for broadcast, but that should have been in the summer of 2008. Three years earlier and three years later, the social atmosphere was different!
On the other end of the phone, Yuan Fenghui was silent, while Wen Ying struck while the iron was hot:
"I'm not cursing Mr. Zhang that this drama will be banned. Even if it is successfully broadcast, it may not be consistent with the character you want to create for Mengjiao and your long-term expectations for Mengjiao. Youth idol drama
, it is always the male lead or the male supporting actor who gets the fame, when will the female lead gain popularity?"
Most of the people who watch youth idol dramas are little girls.
What makes these little girls scream is always the rich, handsome male protagonist or male supporting actor in the drama.
Girls will put themselves into the role of the heroine in Cinderella and fall in love with the male protagonist and male supporting character. They will remember the heroine, but after the TV series is over, they will be obsessed with the male protagonist and male supporting character.
There are several "idol drama queens" in Baodao, who can make any actor popular when they play with them, and film producers like to hire them to act.
But it's over after the show. Let's wait and see in a few years. Who can be famous for a long time?
In contrast, there are male stars who have a background in idol dramas and use the popularity gained from idol dramas as a springboard to act in movies.
Regardless of the box office performance of their movies, they have at least made the leap from television to movies!
It's not that Li Mengjiao can't act in idol dramas, but she shouldn't act in such mindless idol dramas. Apart from letting the audience have a stereotyped impression of her, apart from temporary popularity, what can Li Mengjiao gain?
Of course, as Yuan Fenghui said, such temporary popularity is what many newcomers dream of. If Xu Mei had such an opportunity, Xu Mei would dream of it.
It was just about Li Mengjiao's first electric shock. Wen Ying always wanted to give Li Mengjiao a better start. This was Wen Ying's selfish intention.
After a long silence, Yuan Fenghui chuckled: "You are really smart. I have to admit it. You are very good at convincing people. I was almost shaken."
After a brief pause, Yuan Fenghui's brisk tone suddenly became solemn:
"Everyone can say theoretical planning, but reality is different from theory. If I just relied on imagination, I would arrange for Mengjiao to film a movie and be the heroine, and I would let her album hit the charts. But is this realistic?
She can be the heroine because I want to praise her and because her family can create conditions for her! If you think the script given by screenwriter Zhang is not good, then you can give me a better script."
Yuan Fenghui’s words can be summed up as “If you can do it, then do it; if you can’t do it, don’t act blindly.”
"Why--"
Wang Shuang finally couldn't hold it in anymore. Wen Ying glared at him and refused to allow him to interrupt.
"Teacher Yuan, I understand. I will prepare the script. Teacher Zhang, I will personally explain it."
Explain what?
If a junior questioned him, Lao Zhang might be so angry that he would leave to return to Treasure Island.
Yuan Fenghui was optimistic about the script given by screenwriter Zhang, and of course she did not allow Wen Ying to destroy it.
"No need, I'll go talk to Lao Zhang. You write according to your own ideas first. If you don't understand anything, go and ask Lao Zhang for advice."
Toot toot.
Yuan Fenghui hung up the phone.
Producer Yuan Da did not hide his dissatisfaction at all.
Wen Ying in front of Yuan Fenghui was like a law student facing off against a senior lawyer. If a law student pointed fingers in front of Lawyer Wen, Lawyer Wen would also feel unhappy.
Yuan Fenghui is already very smooth and cultivated.
It's a pity that Wang Shuang believes in Wen Ying's judgment more.
Screenwriter Zhang wrote the script for money, Yuan Fenghui wrote it to make Li Mengjiao famous, and Wen Ying was the only one who wrote the script as a friend and had no interest entanglement.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Shuang was finally able to speak:
"Then just write it yourself and let them see it!"
Adults always question the abilities of minors, and Wang Shuang understands this very well.
If Wen Ying writes a new script that makes both screenwriter Zhang and Yuan Fenghui impeccable, he is looking forward to what their expressions will be like.
Yuan Fenghui is not unkind to Li Mengjiao, but this kind of kindness is mixed with the arrogance of Baodao's producers - is it true that only Baodao can make stars, and only Baodao knows how to make popular dramas?
"...It's easy for you to say it, but you didn't write it."
Wen Ying gave Wang Shuang a roll of her eyes. Wang Shuang was too thick-skinned to blush, "What is our relationship? Isn't the script you wrote equivalent to what I wrote?"
Wang Shuang finally received a beating.
What she wrote should be treated as if it was written by Wang Shuang. Doesn’t that mean that she would have to share half of the remuneration with Wang Shuang?
Beautiful thought!
Lawyers are not easy to take advantage of.
Wen Ying put writer Zhang's script aside and tried hard to get rid of preconceived interference.
Just write.
How do you know if you don't try?
Even if it doesn't work, she has no face to lose as a high school student. At worst, she has the shame to ask screenwriter Zhang for advice.
500,000 yuan was spent. Screenwriter Zhang couldn't just write a plot and hand it over. How could there be such an expensive script?
…
When Wen Ying was thinking about how to make good use of screenwriter Zhang, Yuan Fenghui had already expressed his intention to screenwriter Zhang. Don't expect Wen Ying to write the script. The details should be filled in by screenwriter Zhang himself.
"If she wants to make a fuss, Lao Zhang, just let her go. You two don't have any conflicts with each other. Just finish the script."
Screenwriter Zhang didn't really expect Wen Ying.
Based on this, his script was rejected by Wen Ying?
That little girl must have done this because she couldn't fill in the details.
Screenwriter Zhang laughed angrily, "It's not a big deal. Give me a few days and I promise to hand over the complete script to Tianjiao Film and Television."
The production cycle of Baodao idol dramas is already very fast. The storyline of screenwriter Zhang's script is not complicated, and the expanded details are only a dozen episodes long. For a mature screenwriter, it takes at most a week to come up with a complete script.
.
Some idol dramas are even filmed and broadcast at the same time, and the scripts for each episode are written on the spot!
Yuan Fenghui heard that screenwriter Zhang was unhappy.
In fact, Yuan Fenghui himself was not very happy.
Most of the heroines in idol dramas serve as foils for the male protagonist and the supporting actor. It is the male protagonist and the supporting actor who make the drama popular. Yuan Fenghui knows this without Wen Ying reminding her.
But Baodao already has mature precedents. Those female singers who are willing to film idol dramas do not expect to achieve high achievements in the entertainment industry. They only use filming to expand their popularity and boost album sales - this is
The popular route planned by Yuan Fenghui for Li Mengjiao!
