470. Heroes don't ask where they come from
As the CEO of Star Entertainment, Fan Kuanfan always considers the interests of the company as the starting point, so in this interview, his identity is first the CEO of Star Entertainment, and then a director or producer.
Wang Kai's performance is indeed very good, both in terms of acting skills and the degree of fit with the role are much higher than the other four actors, but from another aspect, his reputation is really too bad.
If actors like Wu Xunhua and Han Jun are hired to act in this drama, then this drama will have its own traffic from the beginning, because these two actors already have some fans, and these fans will definitely pay for the ratings.
But Wang Kai is different, he has almost no popularity in the circle of star-studded entertainment, even if his performance is excellent, it may not bring much benefit to this drama.
So Fan Kuan bluntly said this.
Chen Zhe understood Fan Kuan's consideration, and immediately nodded: "Mr. Fan, I know what you mean, you want to use the fame of Wu Xunhua or Han Jun to make this drama more popular, right?"
"Yes, yes. Fan Kuan immediately smiled and nodded, "That's my way of thinking." Wang Kai's performance is really good, I just said that the layering of his performance is indeed the best, but ...... He doesn't have many fans, and it's a bit too risky to use such a newcomer. ”
In fact, there is one more thing Fan Kuan didn't say, that is, the other actor of this drama, Chen Zhe, is also a fourth-tier star with few fans.
During this time, Chen Zhe's popularity is indeed very high, and it can be regarded as his own traffic, but his traffic is more about his controversy and his works.
Everyone often pays attention to the masked singer, the life on the tip of the tongue, the love affair between Chen Zhe and Da Qiao, or the tearing drama between Chen Zhe and the Fengyan crew.
Other than that, almost no one is a fan of Chen Zhe, and no one wants to see his performance.
In addition, the Fengyan crew poured dirty water on Chen Zhe's body before, causing Chen Zhe's current acting skills to be seriously degraded by the outside world.
Chen Zhe is already so miserable, plus Wang Kai, who is a completely newcomer, is it possible for this drama to become popular?
In the face of Fan Kuan's worries, Chen Zhe was quite calm.
He smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Fan, I think you are too worried." The key to determining whether a drama is good or not lies in the quality of the show, not how big the show is and how luxurious the lineup is.
An excellent film and television drama, even if it is all filmed by newcomers, as long as it has an excellent plot and excellent acting skills of the actors, then this drama will definitely be popular.
On the contrary, if a drama has no plot, the actors are not serious, and even do not fit well with their roles, then even if the lineup of this drama is incomparably strong, it will definitely not have a good reputation. ”
The reason why Chen Zhe said this is because in another world, countless film and television dramas have received such and such tests.
There was a time when the film and television dramas on the market were almost full of traffic, and it can be said that any drama is traffic-based, supplemented by plot.
Some film and television dramas simply have no plot at all, they simply throw traffic on TV and read their lines, and they can't even read their lines well.
Such film and television dramas can only end in failure in the end, even if these fans of traffic are willing to pay for their idols, they cannot support the failure of a film and television drama.
On the contrary, some film and television dramas that became popular by virtue of their plots and excellent acting skills have become a clear stream in this impetuous circle, and they have counterattacked the trend.
In this world, the era of traffic is king has not come, and Fan Kuan's wrong judgment at this time is also related to his lack of this experience.
Hearing Chen Zhe's strong words, Fan Kuan asked thoughtfully: "Mr. Chen, this drama is about your future acting career, do you think it's okay to bet all on a newcomer?"
"I think it's no problem, Wang Kai deserves my trust, as the saying goes, heroes don't ask where they come from, since he has acting skills and fits the role of King Jing, I am willing to believe him. ”
Chen Zhe said,
"In addition, Mr. Fan, when you hired me to shoot "The Masked Singer", didn't I have any qualifications?
Fan Kuan smiled after hearing this, but said in his heart: "That's because of the relationship between Old Man Song, you were directly arranged for me by Old Man Song, of course I can't refuse, if you are just a newcomer with no background, I don't dare to let you shoot me the masked singer ......"
However, these words could only be whispered in his heart, and he didn't dare to say them to Chen Zhe in person.
"Ahem...... is also said that if Mr. Chen is really so optimistic about Wang Kai, then I might as well give him a chance. Fan Kuan said with a smile.
Talking about this, even if the matter is decided, Fan Kuan first sent the final decision back to the crew, and Chen Zhe and Ouyang Meixi left the conference room together.
When they are together in private, the two of them don't pay so much attention to talking.
Meixi no longer calls Chen Zhe "Mr. Chen", but directly calls him Chen Zhe.
"Chen Zhe, what you said today is great. Mi-hee said with a smile.
"Hmm, what's great, that's great?" Chen Zhe asked with a smile.
"That's what you said when you firmly chose Wang Kai. Meixi said, "You didn't dislike Wang Kai because he wasn't famous, and you didn't blindly choose Xiao Wu and Han Jun because they were famous, you said that the key to a drama lies in the quality of the drama, the quality of the plot and the acting skills of the actors, I think you said this very well." ”
Chen Zhe smiled lightly and said: "This is also my heartfelt words, and I don't want the current circle to develop in the direction of traffic being king."
Big-name actors are indeed excellent, and the reason why they can become big-name actors must show that they have a certain strength, but no actor is all-round and suitable for various roles, and each role needs a specific actor who fits him to match, so as to make the show more exciting.
One pursues big names, pursues traffic, pursues coffee positions, and uses actors to set the plot, and the final shooting effect will definitely not be good.
And Wang Kai is just very suitable for the role of King Jing, and I believe that he will be able to complete our "Qilin Zhi" quite well. ”
"I think so too. Mi-hee smiled and said, "Let's look forward to the completion of this drama together." Come on, Chen Zhe!"
Chen Zhe smiled and nodded: "Come on, Nihuang County Lord." ”
