Chapter 494 Although late, Xu Ji was still sprayed
Controversy in the drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is inevitable.
First of all, of course, there was the issue of Yang Guo's casting, but this actually didn't cause much resentment.
After all, the news about the actors has been announced long ago.
The previous episodes featured young actors. After Lin Li appeared as the grown-up Yang Guo, although many viewers still questioned his acting skills.
But no one thinks there is a problem with the image fit.
Lin Li, a young actor, is indeed handsome enough, not to mention other things.
Of course, this is also because a lot of effort was put into the makeup of the entire drama.
As a director, Yang Anran, after reading the original work, tried his best to follow the restoration while constantly asking Xu Ji for his opinions.
Naturally, it is similar to the image of Yang Guo that many people think of when reading novels.
...
"To be honest, I was really disgusted by the appearance of Lin Li's little flesh before, but now that it appears in the divine sculpture, I suddenly feel more and more satisfied with it."
"Lin Li is indeed handsome. I didn't notice it before, but now I can see his good looks in The Condor."
"Actually, this situation is quite normal. In the past, it was because the fans' bragging was offensive, and the filters in those idol dramas were so outrageous that most boys would feel uncomfortable watching them. In Shendiao, it's much more normal, so now
On the contrary, there are more male viewers who think Lin Li is handsome."
"It's much better than I expected. Tongji is indeed Tongji. An idol star like Lin Li can actually improve his acting skills so obviously."
"Although many people criticize me, as of now, Lin Li's performance still doesn't make me uncomfortable."
Looking at the discussions about myself on Weibo, especially most of them are objective discussions by passers-by, and many of them even praise him.
Lin Li was in an unusually good mood at this time.
The main reason is that this is the first time he has experienced such treatment.
Although it has been on many hot searches before, it has even become the center of the topic in many cases.
But in the comment section, either his fans collectively criticize him, or some people just start criticizing regardless of the situation.
As an idol, Lin Li has actually always had the same view, that is, being recognized by the majority of the male audience is proof that he has truly shed his idol status.
After all, the majority of his fans in the fandom are women.
Most boys are subconsciously disgusted with traffic idols like them.
The main reason is that the majority of his friends are girls.
Of course Lin Li is aware of the harm that the fandom can have on his career.
But there was really nothing he could do.
Especially if you offend ordinary viewers, you can't offend your own fan base.
Why doesn't he want to stand and make money?
But things are not as easy as thought.
For most agencies, artists are just money tools.
Especially for young idols, everyone has a tacit understanding of how to make quick money.
Lin Li was very happy that he was lucky enough.
Actually, director Yang Anran from Tongji took the initiative to take a fancy to her.
Otherwise, even though he debuted not long ago, he still knows how difficult it is to enter Tongji.
It can even be said that if he is willing, he can get a good contract by switching jobs to the three majors.
But Tongji didn't look at this at all.
Everyone knows that the requirements for newcomers in Tong Ji Sign are extremely strict, even to the point of perversion.
But the most outrageous thing is that no one can tell what Tongji's recruitment standards are and what aspects are strict.
Now that Lin Li has been in Tongji for half a year, he still has no answer to this question.
Perhaps it is true as others have said, if newcomers want to join Tongji, it really all depends on the mood of the boss, Xu Ji.
...
During the broadcast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", not surprisingly, the popularity of Lin Li and An Cailing, as the male and female protagonists, soared.
Of course, the main actor is Lin Li.
After all, An Cailing is a first-line actor, and her fans and popularity are already quite high.
However, as a traffic idol before, Lin Li was often on hot searches, but his popularity and reputation among passers-by were still far behind.
No matter what happens this time, it can be regarded as relying on "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to successfully change careers and become a professional actor.
At least under the influence of Tongji's reputation, everyone's acceptance of him is still very high.
After all, the actors signed by Tongji basically follow the path of capable actors in the future.
Just like in various unofficial rankings of powerful young actresses nowadays, An Cailing will basically not be absent.
But when the other party started, they also made their debut in the draft and followed the route of a popular idol girl group.
So Lin Li's controversy is actually just a minor issue.
His subsequent acting skills have been gradually recognized by many people.
Of course, Lin Li's acting skills have improved significantly. After all, it was achieved with the help of time and the help of Yang Anran and other crew members.
The person who was really scolded the most was Xu Ji, the screenwriter and author of the original novel.
...
It’s still about the plot of Little Dragon Girl and the character change of middle-aged Huang Rong.
Although the plot of the novel has been widely spread, the reader base is also large enough.
But when these controversial plots are broadcast, it is inevitable that some viewers will still complain.
If it were any other drama, it would be the director and actors who would suffer in the end.
The screenwriter will also be scolded, but it is very likely that some of the firepower will be taken away by others.
But as a Tongji drama, such a situation will never happen.
Everyone knows very well that almost any scolding will end up on Xu Ji's head.
"TMD! The more I think about it, the angrier I get. When I first read the novel, I sprayed it for a long time, and now I still feel uncomfortable watching the drama."
"This guy Xu Ji did it on purpose. I even suspect that this is a very outrageous and arrogant behavior on his part. He knows that even if he writes these plots, it will still not affect the fact that people will like his other parts."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I agree with the point above. The more you look at the back of the divine eagle, the more attractive it becomes. In the front, the plot seems to have collapsed, but in the back it is able to
Come back in a logical and thorough way."
"If I hadn't read the novel, I would probably have given up on the drama now, but the various characters in it really make people feel reluctant to let go."
.......
Although there are many people criticizing it, because many people who have watched the original work know that the exciting plot is still to come, and coupled with the attraction of the coherent plot, there are actually not many people who abandon the show.
Even the corresponding ratings and broadcast volume are still growing crazily.
The three major local TV stations have also cooperated with Station G more than once.
The two parties have relatively complete discussions on the update time and various details.
Mainly because of the current prospect of the decline of traditional media, Tongji's drama is almost the only drama that can achieve high ratings.
The three major local TV stations naturally attach great importance to this.
Even if it is just a simulcast, they are still willing to give their own prime time to broadcast.
Station G wins again.
During the same period, although others such as Penguin and Kiwi also had many new dramas aired.
But in terms of popularity, there is no way to compare with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
After G Station renewed its contract with Tongji, the company had a lot of bad opinions.
Especially regarding the share of shares given to Tongji Entertainment, many senior executives have opinions.
But Chi Jiang never paid attention to it.
Sure enough, as he thought, with the broadcast of the two dramas "Wulin Gaiden" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the results obtained were enough to shut up these senior executives.
...
"Director Xu, long time no see."
In Rongcheng, this time Song Liang came to think of it as bringing almost all the people from his company with him.
Of course, what is different from the previous times is that his current identity has also undergone some changes.
However, Song Lili still called Xu Ji as Director Xu as before, instead of the so-called boss.
Xu Ji didn't care much about this and greeted the other party naturally.
As a top-notch director, Song Lili joined Tongji this time and brought along so many people with his family, so naturally there was a corresponding welcome ceremony.
Although Xu Ji doesn't like this kind of ceremony very much, the proper etiquette still needs to be done.
Of course, Youman had arranged everything in advance, Xu Ji just had to show up.
"I didn't expect that one day I would become a Tongji person."
Song Lili said with some sigh.
The assistant director next to him comforted him: "Actually, this is quite good, isn't it?"
"The current development of Tongji is actually a new opportunity for everyone in our company."
Song Lili nodded.
There is no objection to this.
Tongji has now begun to gradually enter the international market.
Previously, "Pirates of the Caribbean" had a pretty terrifying box office success.
Tongji now feels like he can compete with the three major entertainment companies.
And unlike the three major entertainment companies that have been stable for so many years, Tongji Entertainment is still in the stage of rapid development.
In fact, no one can say what kind of behemoth Tongji Entertainment will develop into in the future.
...
In addition to Xu Ji, the only people attending the welcome ceremony were General Manager Youman and some Tongji staff.
It was like some other directors and actors were imagined, but they did not appear.
After all, Tongji currently has quite a few projects, and no one has that much time.
Most of the people from Tongji are now in various production crews.
Xu Ji also finished filming "I'm Not the God of Medicine", otherwise he might not have time to come.
Moreover, coming to meet Song Lili this time was not just to welcome him.
As the boss of the company, he still needs to give speeches and so on.
Of course, Xu Ji tried to reduce this link as much as possible.
"Director Song, please give me a specific list of your team members when the time comes."
“It’s best to write down their previous positions.”
Youman took the initiative to find Song Lili and said.
Song Lili did not refuse.
He said that he would sort it out and give it to the other party after he got back from dinner today.
...
The next day, after getting the specific list, Youman couldn't help but feel a little headache.
"Director Song's crew really accepts everyone."
Youman could guess what these people's abilities were just by looking at their detailed information.
After all, Tongji's crew had recruited so many people before, and the people Youman had to deal with during the process were complex enough.
Judging from the information of these personnel, if they were placed under the screening conditions set by Xu Ji in the past, most of them would be unqualified.
Especially in terms of age, there are quite a lot of middle-aged people.
And this kind of person, Xu Ji has mentioned, is totally troublesome.
Because I have been in the industry for a long time, I have long been regarded as a veteran.
It is simply impossible to cultivate such a person from scratch, or there is no need to spend time cultivating him.
"It doesn't matter, just follow the assessment standards normally."
"As for how many people can be retained, it all depends on their performance."
Xu Ji said calmly.
Youman nodded.
"That's all it can do now."
"But we have to come to an agreement with Song Lili first."
"Lest you think the company is deliberately targeting him."
Unlike Xu Ji who thought it was not a big deal, Youman, as the manager of the entire Tongji, actually had more complex issues to consider.
Especially if Song Lili brings members of his original company to join, it will definitely bring about some complicated problems.
For example, if there are too many people who fail the assessment and Song Lili feels dissatisfied, although the other party may not say it directly, these are management risks that can easily be left behind.
There are also people like them who were originally from the same company. After coming to Tongji, it is very likely that they will form a group.
Although Youman never told Xu Ji this, he could probably guess that Xu Ji, the boss, would definitely not like this phenomenon.
And this is not a good thing for the current Tongji.
That's why Song Lili's original people were directly broken up, reorganized, and assigned to the crews of various projects.
Let these people start their work with complete treatment as new employees.
If you fail the assessment, you will definitely be eliminated.
Otherwise, trying to stay with someone out of kindness will be a bad start.
Of course, Youman also feels that there are still many talents in Song Lili's team. If they can find some, it will be a good thing for Tongji now.
After all, all the crews of Tongji are now talking about police officers.
As the number of projects increases, the staffing required by Tongji has indeed become much larger.
Although some so-called temporary workers can be recruited, it is definitely more reliable to use Tongji's own people.
"After that, it's up to you to explain this matter to Song Lili in advance."
Youman looked at Xu Ji and said.
Although Xu Ji was stunned for a moment, he still nodded.
Although he is lazy, he is not stupid, and he naturally understands the other party's intentions.
This kind of unfriendly news made him, the boss, say that the effect he could achieve would definitely be better than that of Youman.
After all, Song Lili is considered a top-tier director, so if You Man is still talking about this kind of thing, it seems like he doesn't take him seriously.
Xu Ji, the boss, and also a top-tier director, Song Lili should be able to understand.
