The fact that the Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the Writers Association were kicked out of the film award selection was a stroke of genius.
Of course, it was quite noisy.
No one wants to lose their vested interests and will fight tooth and nail.
It's a pity that Li Jianguo was able to keep the situation in check, and the reason was very good.
Movies are in the field of audio-visual media, so what does they have to do with you being engaged in literature?
You are not even considered practitioners, so what kind of experts are you pretending to be?
Three days later, another major event happened, which completely consolidated the situation.
The Film Association held a national conference to reorganize.
Xie Qi, who had already retreated to the second line, was elected as the new chairman of the Film Association. The vice-chairmen are Wang Xiaotang, Han Siping, Li Yushuang and other famous film industry personnel.
Unlike most theoretical groups in the past, the new leadership team of the Film Association all have rich front-line work experience.
Another special thing is that the team has opened up the scope of recruitment, and Hong Kong superstar Liang Jiahui was also elected as one of the vice-chairmen.
This is the first time that Xiangjiang's entertainment industry has entered the ranks of national industry leaders, and it has caused huge repercussions in the three places across the Taiwan Strait.
However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Film Association was not reorganized sooner rather than later. It is easy to imagine what it means to reorganize it at this time.
The Chinese film industry is turbulent, but it won't be settled for a while.
Xiao Qian only exchanged opinions with relevant people and gained widespread support. He was just waiting for all aspects of the action plan to be in place before he could launch it.
If you don't have anything to do, you'd better be busy with your own business.
The location shooting of "Spring Scene with Pigs" has ended, and they have returned to the company to start post-production, but the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is about to set off.
Xiao Qian went there first.
Starlight filming, especially costume dramas, inevitably requires assembling the cast and rehearsing as a whole for a long time.
This kind of rehearsal is very good, and it allows actors to get rid of external worries and concentrate on acting. In addition, it can improve the style of the entire play, the director's intention, and the coordination of partners and opponents.
When Xiao Qian rushed over, the rehearsal for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" had already ended.
All the actors were busy packing their luggage and preparing to follow the crew to Hengdian.
Xiao Qian met Master Huang for the first time.
She is fair and tender, very sunny, her chin is not big, and her face shape is not like that of later robots.
It can be said that when he was young, the leader Huang deserved to be called a handsome boy. I don’t know why, but his facial features became more and more thick later on.
Seeing Xiao Qian flipping through his notes, Leader Huang sat on pins and needles.
When he was asked to play Yang Guo, he was very excited, thinking that he could enter the starlight. But for a long time, no one mentioned it.
On the contrary, some entertainment companies took notice of this and recruited him, and each one had better conditions than the last.
In the end, Master Huang could not resist the temptation and signed a contract with a large entertainment company.
Now that Xiao Qian is in person, he is really afraid that Xiao Qian will talk about this matter. If he is dissatisfied with his unauthorized assertion and withdraws his protagonist, everything will be ruined.
What he didn't know was that Xiao Qian had long known about his signing with another company and didn't care.
No matter how big your star power is, it has its limits. Unless you are a top and important actor, Xiao Qian doesn't have any collecting habits.
Leader Huang is very famous, but his acting skills are really not good and he has many limitations.
Looking at his past life experience, I am afraid that he paid more attention to his career than his acting skills. So from the beginning, Xiao Qian had no intention of signing him.
"It can be seen that you are very careful and have made a lot of preparations."
Xiao Qian opened his mouth and praised him, which made Master Huang feel a little relieved.
"Mr. Xiao thought highly of me and let me play the role of Yang Guo. I will definitely try my best to play the role well and live up to your expectations."
Xiao Qian nodded and began to give instructions.
"Your experience and understanding of Yang Guo is more in line with the original work."
Leader Huang was delighted, and it could be seen between his eyebrows.
He is an actor with a professional background, so he is good at doing this kind of character analysis.
However, he was totally wrong if he thought Xiao Qian was praising him.
"But your understanding is somewhat biased, and it won't work like this."
Leader Huang was startled, clasping his hands together and sweating, like a primary school student who had made a mistake.
"Haha, don't be nervous, we are just communicating. Come, sit down, and I will talk to you."
Seeing that Xiao Qian's attitude was very kind, Master Huang finally calmed down. While sitting down gently, he was also filled with doubts.
Why doesn't Xiao Qian agree with the character analysis I did based on the original work?
Xiao Qian started to comment on him.
"In the play, Yang Guo is truly the first protagonist, and the entire play depends on him. In other words, the success or failure of this character will be related to the style and direction of the entire play."
Leader Huang was shocked. It was the first time he knew that his role was so important.
There are many seniors in this drama, and they are all top-notch actors.
Even Li Ruotong, who played the role of Xiao Longnu, was older than him. So he thought he just had to perform well, but he didn't expect that in Xiao Qian's design, he was actually the main protagonist.
The so-called main protagonist can also be called the king of the drama.
Some characters are nominally the protagonists in a work, but in fact their role is just embellishment and foreshadowing.
The most typical example is the three characters Xiao Feng, Xu Zhu and Duan Yu in "The Eight Parts of the Dragon".
Although these three people are the nominal protagonists of "Dragon Babu", most of the plots in the entire book do not happen to them.
Their role in the book is to bring out various past events and grievances and grievances.
To put it bluntly, it's just an introduction.
What readers see in "Dragon" is just other people's stories seen through the eyes of the three protagonists.
But "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is different. The reader's focus is entirely on Yang Guo, and the entire story is viewed through his perspective.
All the plots in the book also revolve around Yang Guo.
It can be said that if the character of Yang Guo was eliminated, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" would immediately become fragmented and incomprehensible.
The character analysis of Master Huang is very consistent with the character setting in the original work. But Xiao Qian wants him to understand that this kind of interpretation is not acceptable in film and television dramas.
"The Yang Guo in the book, because Mu Nianci died young and was left without a single upbringing, wandered around the market all day long and was bullied, so he developed a cunning and cunning character with no distinction between right and wrong. Such a description does not matter in the book, the reader's
I’m not very impressed. But if it’s a movie or TV series
If you continue to act like this, it will be difficult for the audience to accept it. In the minds of the public, Yang Guo is a good man and a hero, so the image must be more positive. If you act him in such a way that the audience hates him, the audience will also dislike him.
I’ll hate you. Do you understand?”
Leader Huang was completely stunned. He had no idea that the analysis he had worked so hard on would be completely useless.
But he knew that in terms of film and television drama production experience, he was not qualified to give Xiao Qian shoes. He did not think that his analysis was better than Xiao Qian's.
What Xiao Qian said is actually a secret that many people don't know.
Many golden books in previous lives have been adapted into film and television dramas, many of which have the gimmick of completely following the original works, and many golden fans are also eager for the appearance of film and television dramas that are the same as the books.
But unfortunately, no movie or TV series is exactly the same as the book.
The media of film and television and the novel are different, so naturally the form of expression cannot be completely unified. If the film were to be filmed completely according to the content of the novel, it would definitely be very ugly.
For example, in "The Eight Parts of the Heavenly Dragon", the content in the book begins with the Wuliang Sword Sect.
But if it were really filmed like this, which audience would be patient enough to watch a bunch of supporting actors compete for the title role as they quickly receive their lunch boxes?
But changing the plot to Xiao Feng fighting Xixia Yipintang can make the audience excited and quickly get involved.
Such changes are of course not in line with the original work, but more in line with the style of the film and television series.
This is also the reason why audiences basically dislike the film and television dramas that Mr. Jin admires, and the film and television dramas that audiences like are far from his original works.
A writer's own work in his mind and his work in the audience's mind are completely different.
Not to mention Jin Shu, after "Tomb Robbers Notes", "Zhu Xian" and other movies were adapted into movies, how many of them are the same as the original works, and how many of them are not scolded?
How to adapt the finished novel into a film and television drama to win the audience's love is a great test of the skills of the screenwriter and director.
Xiao Qian has ready experience, so of course he will not make such a mistake.
After he discovered the cognitive bias of Leader Huang, he quickly stopped the crew and personally reorganized the preparations of all the actors from Shen Qing down.
Under his intervention, the entire crew's preparations have undergone earth-shaking changes.
