Chapter 436: The Four Masters and Apprentices Who Floated (4000+ Chapters, Ask for Subscription~)
"Mother, you've watched it for the second time, why are you still wiping your tears?"
In the courtyard, Wu Jianye looked at his wife helplessly, and what he said was the second time that the old lady had just finished watching "Desire"!
At the beginning of this year, CCTV threw down a tear gas bomb and a joy bomb across the country with two popular TV series!
The tear gas is "Desire", a large-scale indoor life drama, which was used by CCTV as the opening drama of the Lunar New Year.
Once it was broadcast, it officially caused heated discussions across the country, and "Yanjing Daily" also did a special survey on this, and at this time, there was no organization that counted ratings, so they just interviewed TV viewers randomly, so as to get an approximate rating.
In this questionnaire survey, the results showed that 96.1% of people watched the TV series "Desire", far exceeding the proportion of people who watched similar TV series.
The first publicly screened TV series in China, "Huo Yuanjia", was watched by 86.7%, and "Shanghai Tang" was 83.2%. Among them, 81.9% of the audience gave a positive evaluation to "Desire".
From this, it can be seen why "Desire" will be said to be an empty alley in later generations.
In Yanjing, there is also a smooth talk about "Desire", the big environment, and the small family. Things around you, love for children. Truth, goodness and beauty, ugly souls, joys and sorrows are always about love.
And the members of the crew of "Desire" are also popular, and many places have sent invitations hoping to let the members of the crew come to them to condolence performances.
has the same treatment as "Desire" is another TV series "Journey to the West" with thousands of empty alleys!
is different from the tear-jerking of "Desire", the broadcast of "Journey to the West" made all children obsessed with the omnipotent Monkey King.
When Wu Jianye came back today, he also saw a few bear children, playing the four masters and apprentices in the alley, just because a slightly fatter child was assigned to play Zhu Bajie, sitting on the ground rolling and crying.
The old lady naturally prefers to watch "Desire", and now it is the second round of broadcast on Yanjing TV, but the ratings are still crushing the TV series of other TV stations.
This has also become a program that the old lady can't shake every day.
The old lady looked at Wu Jianye with an unkind face: "Say, why?"
Wu Jianye was suddenly a little confused: "What, why?"
"Why do you say?"
“.......”
Zhu Xuan explained funny on the side: "Mom, are you asking why you wrote Liu Huifang so miserably?"
When "Desire" was broadcast for the first time, the old lady knew that Wu Jianye was the screenwriter of this TV series in Zhu Xuan, and after that, the old lady had a nose and a face that was not a nose and a face to Wu Jianye.
Later, after the performance of "Desire", the old lady's temper was a little better, and now the second round of playback has begun, and the old lady's unhappiness has begun again.
"Mother, this is a TV series, it's all fake!" Wu Jianye could only say with a pale voice.
The old lady doesn't care about this, anyway, her son can't write Liu Huifang so miserably, followed by a reprimand, until Wu Nianyi's cry sounded, the old lady let Wu Jianye go.
Looking at Wu Jianye's helpless expression, Zhu Yan showed a hint of joy again.
"Okay, don't be angry, Mom said that, doesn't it mean that the TV series you wrote is more popular?" Zhu Yan hugged Wu Jianye's arm and comforted.
Wu Jianye let out a long sigh and said, "Hey, I know what it means to lift a stone and shoot myself in the foot!"
Zhu Yan smiled and asked: "You have taken "Journey to the West" to Xiangjiang to broadcast, why don't you also take "Desire" to Xiangjiang to broadcast?"
Wu Jianye walked to the sofa and sat down, and said: "If the TV series "Desire" is broadcast in Xiangjiang, it will definitely hit the street to grandma's house, he is different from "Journey to the West"!"
The reason why "Desire" was able to achieve such a big sensation in China is actually because the combination of this TV series and the domestic situation can cause huge resonance in the hearts of ordinary audiences, and it will achieve such great success.
But if this TV series is broadcast in Xiangjiang, it can only make the audience in Xiangjiang look confused, and then quickly switch TV stations, and there will be no other functions.
As for "Journey to the West", it is different, this one has a huge readership in Southeast Asia, and there are no limitations in the subject matter, so it can naturally succeed in the whole of Southeast Asia.
In fact, it is true, as the first TV series after ATV's star promotion, the TV series "Journey to the West" relies on ATV and has achieved extremely high ratings throughout Southeast Asia.
The proof is that the four masters and apprentices in "Journey to the West" have become completely popular, and in just over this month, Tangting Culture has received countless invitations to invite them to various countries to take the stage.
The four masters and apprentices floated away.......
In the office of Tangting Culture, the report brought by Xia Xiaohong illustrates this point very well.
"The four of them have privately contacted the invitation of a commercial performance, boss, this is not the first time!" Xia Xiaohong's expression was very dissatisfied.
Although these four people are not actors of court culture, the copyright of the TV series "Journey to the West" belongs to court culture, so about their commercial performances, they generally have to go through court culture, and Wu Jianye doesn't want to fall out with them for this little money, so the remuneration for commercial performances has always been fifty-fifty, but the result still can't satisfy them.
Wu Jianye looked at the report in his hand and said, "Make a statement, forbidding them to use this name in private!"
Xia Xiaohong shook her head and said: "It's useless, although we own the copyright of the TV series "Journey to the West", but we don't have the copyright of the four Tang monks and apprentices, they can use this as a reason to reject our statement." ”
"Even ......."
"Or even what?" Wu Jianye asked, looking at Xia Xiaohong.
"Now when the four of them take on commercial performances outside, they often mention the success of this TV series intentionally or unintentionally, which is their credit, especially the actor 'Monkey King'. ”
In fact, this is also one of the reasons why the four masters and apprentices fell out with Director Yang Jie later, after the great success of "Journey to the West", the four masters and apprentices attributed the success of "Journey to the West" to their own success, and it has little to do with Director Yang Jie.......
Especially Mr. Zhang, in the following decades, regarded the role of Sun Wukong as his incarnation, and criticized the appearance of Sun Wukong in any other form.
This also has the stalk of the later 'stylistic flowering'.......
Wu Jianye thought for a while and said, "Send a notice, just say that the court culture will no longer cooperate with the four of them in the future." ”
Xia Xiaohong looked at Wu Jianye suspiciously: "Can this work?"
Wu Jianye shook his head and said, "It won't be too binding, it's not the same as Xiangjiang in China." ”
The territory of China is too vast, at this time, even if Tangting Culture does not use them, it will not delay their cooperation with other cultural companies or TV stations, as long as the domestic entertainment industry has not officially entered the capital market, the binding force of Tangting Culture will not be as huge as in Xiangjiang.
Wu Jianye did this, just to show his attitude.
In fact, the experience of later generations also shows that these people have not achieved much in the entertainment industry, even thirty years later, they are still making money under the name of "Journey to the West", and there is no other achievement.......
Soon, the announcement about Tangting culture spread all over the domestic entertainment circle in Yanjing, which can be regarded as the first ban order in China.
However, as Wu Jianye said, this incident did not have much impact on the four masters and apprentices, after all, the major performance platforms recognize the four masters and apprentices, not the so-called court culture.
There are even some people who openly clamore for the court culture, which is nothing to do and bully people.......
At first, Wu Jianye didn't take this seriously, but as Xia Xiaohong found Wu Jianye again, she reported something to Wu Jianye.
"There is a company called Dachao Culture Company in Yanjing that has contacted the four of them and is going to find them to shoot a modern drama!"
After listening to it, Wu Jianye laughed, "Modern drama, this boss still has a lot of ideas?" and then asked, "What is the background of this dynasty culture?"
Nowadays, it is not news that a cultural company has been established in China for a long time, and there are already fifty or sixty cultural companies in Yanjing alone.
"There should be no official background, the boss is a native of Guangdong Province, two years ago to catch up with the frenzy of going to the sea, make some money, and then came to Yanjing to open a cultural company, and then before investing in a movie and lost some money, and now he has invested in a TV series, which is said to be in cooperation with Yanjing TV. ”
"Before that, someone said that our store was a big bully, and they were also adding fuel to the fire?" Wu Jianye asked.
"Not bad. ”
Wu Jianye: "Investigate what business this boss does, and then see how much money this boss is going to invest in the TV series he is going to shoot for them?"
Xia Xiaohong nodded, "I see." ”
After Xia Xiaohong went out, Wu Jianye smiled.
"You still have the heart to laugh, they obviously want to use your reputation to elevate themselves!" Zhao Fei sat on the side and said dissatisfiedly.
Now that Zhao Fei has officially joined Tangting Culture, when Wu sees that the night is not turned on, Zhao Fei is also in Yanjing alone, often turning around in the four or nine cities, and living a small life is extremely comfortable.
Zhao Fei found Wu Jianye today and actually didn't have anything serious, that is, he drank with Chen Kaige two days ago, and knew that the other party was about to go to Cannes to participate in this year's Cannes Film Festival, and Zhang Yimou was also in Yanjing at this time for some reasons, so Zhao Fei proposed that everyone get together to be a great trip for Chen Kaige.
"This boss is quite interesting!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Nowadays, the person who can think of improving himself by virtue of the public opinion situation in China is definitely a talent, which also makes Wu Jianye interested in the boss of Guangdong Province.
Zhao Fei complained: "There's a fart meaning, you just admit it?"
Wu Jianye: "How is it possible, since the other party wants to try my wrist, let him take a look!"
With the development of the country getting faster and faster, after experiencing a small trough next year, it is time for the domestic entertainment industry to develop in the right direction.
This also means that the dominance of court culture in China will be more and more challenged, in fact, this is another reason why Wu Jianye chose to start filming "The Legend of the New White Lady" this year.
Because of the indescribable reasons next year, the domestic film industry will suffer another blow, and this blow is still from the national level, and Wu Jianye also took this opportunity to temporarily avoid the edge.
However, this does not mean that Wu Jianye has to endure someone challenging him, he hopes that the domestic entertainment industry can flourish, but he doesn't want to see someone stepping on his shoulders.
If you want to use yourself as a ladder, you have to see if the other party has the strength.
Zhao Fei nodded: "It's pretty much the same, by the way, will you go at night?"
Wu Jianye nodded: "Go, let Chen Kaige have a treat, anyway, he has money!"
Naturally, it is Hong Huang, and now the two can be said to be fighting hotly and have lived together.
Zhao Fei nodded and said, "This is a must!"
In the evening, Chen Kaige showed his petty bourgeois sentiment as always, and chose a place to treat himself in a Western restaurant, which was no news in Yanjing City at this time.
Those present were Chen Kaige, Hong Huang, Wu Jianye, Zhang Yimou, Zhao Fei, as well as Tianzhuangzhuang, who had not appeared for a long time, and Gong Li, who should not have appeared.
"What have you been busy with lately?" Wu Jianye couldn't help but ask after seeing Grange.
In the past few years, Wu Jianye has been busy with his film career, often not in Yanjing, and sometimes he came back and wanted to meet with Grangezhuang, but the other party was either not in Yanjing, or he didn't know where the secret was, and the two of them saw each other less than two or three times.
Grange Zhuang is still that raunchy appearance, which seems to be extremely inconsistent with the temperament of the entire Western restaurant, Wu Jianye suspects that if he doesn't come with everyone, the waiters in the Western restaurant can't let him in.
"What about making movies. Grange Zhuang said as a matter of course.
"What movie?"
"The movie that reflects the theme of unmarried pregnancy among women is now tentatively called "Special Operating Room"!"
Wu Jianye gave a thumbs up to Grange Zhuang and said, "You cow, do you think you can pass the review and be released on this subject?"
Grange Zhuang said disapprerovingly: "Why not, I didn't shoot anything?"
Wu Jianye also admired the character of Grange Zhuangzhuang, Wu Jianye didn't know about other movies, Wu Jianye still had some impressions of this movie, and it was sealed for 17 years......
"Okay, don't persuade him, I and Lao Mouzi have both persuaded him for a long time, and he is like this. Chen Kaige said.
Wu Jianye knew the character of Grange, so he didn't say anything, and after sitting down, the waiter began to serve the food.
At this time, Chen Kaige can be said to be holding back a lot of energy, Wu Jianye's success in front of him is enough to make him worry, and now Zhang Yimou, who has always been regarded as his younger brother, also won the Golden Bear Award, and he took "The Child King" to Cannes this time to participate in the award.
