Chapter 403: More Luster
In order to participate in today's Yenching Film Festival, Xiao Qi wore a dress specially designed for her, with red as the main color, a corset, and black butterfly-style decorations and patterns on it, which is very in line with her identity as the lead singer of black butterflies.
This dress is gorgeous but not gaudy, which is very suitable for Xiao Qi's identity, and adds a few mature and sexy beauty to the beautiful Xiao Qi. The design of this dress is still relatively conservative, with no leaky back and thighs, compared to those stars who wear less at the film festival, Xiao Qi is much more traditional. Even the neckline is relatively high, and from the front, you can only faintly see a little whiteness and softness, but from Ye Zheng's point of view, you can see more.
Now Xiao Qi is no longer the fledgling little girl, she has grown rapidly for more than two years, she has become an internationally renowned singer, active on the big stage at home and abroad. Naturally, he gradually developed an extraordinary temperament. And only in front of Ye Zheng and a few other people, she will be like a twenty-year-old girl. "Eh, what happened to this little dragon girl by Yin Zhiping?" Xiao Qi sighed: "This is really a failure, I said what do you think, such a clear and jade little dragon girl has such a big stain? Can those readers of yours be happy to read it?"
"When this chapter was updated, there were 20,000 more reviews on the same day. Ye Zheng said helplessly: "The evaluation score of the previous book is as high as 9.7 points, and this one, now it is only 8.5 points, all because of this plot." ”
In this regard, Ye Zheng was also entangled for a long time at the beginning, in fact, he could have handled the plot and let Xiaolongnu have a clear and jade body, but in the end he decided to respect the original work of Jin Yong's predecessors and did not adapt this plot.
Regarding the matter of Xiaolongnu, there was also controversy in the previous life, many people thought that this was a failure, and some even said that it was Jin Yong's century trauma. What a pure little dragon girl, beautiful and unparalleled in the world, she was raped...... How can this be endured? Just thinking about it is a pain in my heart. It's to substitute yourself, but who likes to be a cuckold man!
However, many people also say that Jin Yong's arrangement just shows the maturity of his ideological realm. In life, there is not so much perfection. The role of Xiaolongnu is already a collection of thousands of advantages, and it is not an exaggeration to have some flaws. Anyway, when Xiaolongnu was killed like that, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu had not yet confirmed their relationship. And in fact, if you think about your previous life, with the popularity of TV series, the image of Xiaolongnu is still a pure fairy incarnation in everyone's hearts. Although her body has been defiled, it is still spotless from the inside out.
And Ye Zheng has no way to decide everyone's concept, but he has not changed the plot, on the one hand, he respects the original work, and on the other hand, he himself is more inclined to the original plot. Probably most mature people can understand that there are really no flawless people in this world, you and I are the same, and the same is true of the little dragon girl. "But that's okay, you don't have to cater to the reader right now, and I think this kind of plot arrangement is actually more perfect. What is perfection, imperfection is perfection, if it is too perfect, it is not perfect. Xiao Qi said.
She was right, Ye Zheng really didn't need to change the plot to please some readers because of this. The so-called public mouth is difficult to reconcile, and Ye Zheng's current "realm" is no longer just writing cool articles. A master must have the courage of a master. "Are you talking about tongue twisters?" Ye Zheng said. "That's it. Xiao Qi said, and suddenly found that from Ye Zheng's point of view, she could see the scenery of her chest smoothly, her face turned slightly red, she smiled at Ye Zheng and asked, "Is it good-looking?"
"What?" Ye Zheng was stunned, looked at Xiao Qi's expression and eyes, and suddenly understood what was going on, so he teased: "Aha, it's okay, but the white ones are not suitable for your clothes today, I think red and pink should be more suitable." ”
"Then the awards party is over, you go buy it for me! I'll wear it for you!" Xiao Qi said and straightened up, and asked with a little pride: "How is Bijiajia's? Is it more beautiful?" Ye Zheng said in his heart This is true, Lin Yujia's skin quality is not too good, and he grew up in the countryside and often did farm work, so his complexion is not white and tender. And Xiao Qi's family background is not bad, and she is naturally beautiful, although she does not take care of it very deliberately, she also has a good skin that countless artists envy.
"Ahem, sit down. Ye Zheng said, pointing to Du Yan in front of him: "I was heard." "Ye Dong, I didn't hear anything!" Du Yantou said without replying. "Ahem, cough, cough......" Ye Zheng coughed non-stop, and it took him a long time to ease up, and he said helplessly: "Very good, very good...... There is no doubt about Du Yan's work attitude, but his temperament is a little too straight, and it is a little bit second, there is really no way. Xiao Qi stuck out her tongue mischievously, without the slightest embarrassment, she was a likable character, and she was very compatible with Du Yan. So much so that Du Yan always felt that Ye Zheng and Lin Yujia were together, so it was better to choose Xiao Qi. So Xiao Qi also dared to laugh in the car unscrupulously, Du Yan was towards her.
Huaxia TV is about to arrive, Ye Zheng looked at the time, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the awards party started at seven o'clock in the evening, and he was not in a hurry, he was watching, Qian Xiaoyu, manager of the film and television department of China Television, called, and a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Zheng's mouth: "It seems that this manager Qian has still made a decision, I hope he will agree to my proposal." ”
Half a month ago, Ye Zheng took out the script of "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang" and handed it to Qian Xiaoyu, proposing a plan for the cooperation between Time and Space Film and Television and China Television. However, it is different from "Soldier Assault" and "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", in which the space-time group accounts for a small part of the investment. The investment of Time and Space Film and Television will account for 60% of this TV series and 55% of the equity of this TV series. The painstaking matter was handed over to China Television, so Time and Space Film and Television gave up 5% of the shares.
Such a proposal, Huashi did not open his mouth to agree, although they knew that Ye Zheng came up with a very good script, but they still felt that the conditions proposed by Time and Space Film and Television were a little harsh. After all, it takes a lot of effort to shoot and produce a TV series.
And even if it is 55%, it shows that Time and Space Film and Television has the right to decide this TV series. For example, during filming, there were disputes in the selection of actors, the handling of the plot, etc., and time and space film and television had the right to decide. Not only does they have no right to decide, but they also have to honestly listen to the orders of Time and Space Film and Television, and work hard. Therefore, some people in China Television are not happy. However, Ye Zheng is very calm, and the conditions will never be relaxed.
and pointed out the value of this script, and Ye Zheng made a package ticket, after the filming of this TV series is completed, the sales price of TV stations and online rights for each episode will definitely not be less than three million, and the pressure of four million is not too big. This guarantee ticket is a bit of a boast. Although the sales price of excellent TV series has reached five or six million per episode, the highest price has reached seven and two million. But this is only a tiny minority. The annual sales price exceeds three million per episode, and there are only three or five parts. Four or five million are only one or two. The price of most TV dramas is in the tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. Ye Zheng's confidence is inevitably too strong.
"Let's think about it again. Qian Xiaoyu said this to Ye Zheng at the time. Ye Zheng said with a smile: "Then you think about it quickly, I believe that there must be many TV stations interested in this script, and even I can get 20% of the shares with just one script, even if I sell it, I can buy more than 200,000 yuan per episode." But after all, it is still your Huashi who has strong strength and rich experience, and we have a foundation for cooperation, so we give priority to you. In fact, you guys have already taken advantage of it, and I am a first-class screenwriter now, and I don't even count the script money!"
Half a month has passed, and China Television's reply is finally coming. "We agree with your proposal to bring this TV series to the agenda as soon as possible, and may we have a happy cooperation. Qian Xiaoyu said on the phone. Ye Zheng also smiled: "Happy cooperation!" He knew that Huashi would definitely not give up this TV series, in the "Secret History of Xiaozhuang" lounge, in the room, Cang Shuiyue and several important personnel such as cameramen and editors from the crew had arrived, but Luo Yunqian had not yet arrived.
Ye Zheng saw that there was a more unexpected person in the room, who turned out to be a famous director in Taiwan, Wu Menglong, the director of the work "No Soldiers in the World". At this time, Wu Menglong was chatting with Cangshuiyue and them, Ye Zheng came in, Wu Menglong quickly stood up, smiled and shook hands with Ye Zheng. "Hello Ye Dong, I'm Wu Menglong. "Hello, Director Wu, look up for a long time!" Ye Zheng said with a smile, this sentence is not just polite, Wu Menglong's name, he has indeed admired it for a long time.
has been a director for ten years, and Wu Menglong, who is now less than 40 years old, has won the Golden Horse Award for Best Director once, the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Director, and two nominations for Best Director at international first-class film festivals. It can be said that he is famous in Chinese films and is also quite famous in the director world all over the world. This is a very talented director, he was an actor for a few years when he was young, made a few bad movies, and felt that acting was boring, but filming was interesting, so he raised five million funds to make a movie, and he alone not only served as a director, but also served as an editor and post-production.
And it was that low-budget film that made him get the best director nomination and the best editing award at an international first-class film festival, and became famous in one fell swoop! In the following years, he shot a total of six films, all of which were very good, won many awards, and also won several stars. If we talk about the box office, his highest-grossing film has also achieved a good result of 700 million in China and 3.2 billion in the world. And what Ye Zheng particularly likes about him is that the characteristics of his movies are very similar to a famous director in his previous life: Wong Kar-wai.
