Chapter 22: The Oasis
Jin Yuan didn't hear it, ignored him, and continued to play billiards with Han Zhen.
Xu Jie has been attending dinners for the past few days, interviewing several producers, and trying to win a positive and ingratiating role for Cheng Nuo. It is best to offset the negative impact of Cheng Nuo's "bad" image in the eyes of the public due to the "bad" image created by the previous character, and cultivate Cheng Nuo's national favorability.
Although Cheng Nuo's scandal some time ago was indirectly clarified, in order to prevent excessive popularity, the serious tilt of resources, and the deliberate suppression of capital, the scripts and teams that he came into contact with were really not very good.
Although she is the female number one, most of the characters are silly and sweet. The people now have high requirements for the quality of the plays, and Mary Sue's set no longer meets the tastes of today's audiences.
It's really hard to wait for a good script and team.
But everyone can't sit idly by, artists need exposure, topics and popularity, in addition to a few recent fashion magazines, Xu Jie also deliberately contacted several reality shows, she pushed the planning of these shows and the previous scripts to Cheng Nuo, and asked her opinion.
Cheng Nuo lay on the bed and used her iPad to look through the resources Xu Jie gave her.
One of the reality shows is about bringing a baby. Invite five single female celebrities and amateur dolls in the city to form a holiday "mother and son" or "mother and daughter" to experience life in the countryside.
When Cheng Nuo saw this, he bluntly told Xu Jie: "Isn't this the popular parent-child show that copied back then? What is so good about a single female artist with a child, and a man with a child has a contrast, cuteness, and roughness to see. If a woman does a good job with her children, she says that she is her duty, and if she does not do well, she says that she is derelict in her duty. It's hard to be a woman. If you want me to say, don't fix all these bells and whistles, really focus on the group of full-time wives and housewives, take amateur families as the starting point, and reveal the life dilemmas and psychological demands of contemporary women is a practical thing, and men in the province think that if their wives don't work, they don't contribute to the family. ”
"I didn't expect you to have quite an insight into life. Xu Jie sat on the corner of the bed and looked up at her from her phone.
"My opinions come from life, and my last role was played by my stepmother, so I succeeded. Cheng Nuo said calmly.
She quickly flipped through these shows, and she was not interested, so she simply changed her position, lay on her back on the bed, and said to Xu Jie while watching: "The reality show, don't take it in the future, the actor must maintain a sense of mystery, and excessively shaping the character in the show will affect the audience's sense of substitution for your role, which is not good." ”
Xu Jie thought for a while and nodded in agreement, "What about the script?
Cheng Nuo looked at the outlines of several TV drama scripts and was not satisfied, but the last movie script attracted her attention.
It is about a pair of educated youths who went to the mountains and went to the countryside in the 60s and were assigned to the Mu Us desert area north of Yulin to control desertification. Originally, both of them had the opportunity to transfer back to the city to work, but they both gave up. Faced with a harsh environment and high-intensity work, the hero gradually becomes unwell and eventually dies in this desert. And the heroine, with the unfulfilled wish of the hero, sticks to this sandy land until the desert becomes an oasis and grows old for a lifetime.
Xu Jie was a little speechless about Cheng Nuo's choice, and couldn't help reminding: "This is a pure literary film, and you also know that the audience of literary films is small, and the market acceptance in recent years has not been good, and most of the box office results are not very good." If you make this film, you have to stay in the desert for a few months, and you won't necessarily be recognized by everyone if you make it. ”
