Chapter 265: Drive High and Go Low

"You've created another classic character, congratulations, Xiaohan. Wang Jie said with emotion that during the audition, Wang Jie knew that Yi Shuihan could play this role well, but he didn't expect him to be so brilliant.

Last night's ratings are proof of this, and if it can rise steadily, then this will definitely be a TV series that will go down in the TV drama ratings record.

"I just don't want to have regrets. Yi Shuihan said with a smile, as a professional actor, he didn't want to wait until he saw the finished product to feel that he could act better.

Wang Jie nodded, admiring Yi Shuihan's mature rationality, he smiled and said: "Because of the brilliant performance of Zheng Anzhi played by you, there are many entertainment newspapers that want to interview you now, when do you think you will find time?"

"Let's arrange this for you," Yi Shuihan nodded and asked, "Then are there any audition invitations from the crew in the near future?"

It has been more than two months since "Life and Death" was completed, and during this time, he has completely detached himself from the influence of Zheng Anzhi's role on him, but he still looks a little thin.

He is a person who can't stay idle, and he is really a little unaccustomed to resting for such a long time.

"Speaking of which, I'd like to talk to you. Wang Jie's expression was a little serious.

"What's the matter?" Yi Shuihan also became serious, looking at Wang Jie's attitude, he knew that this matter was more important.

"Do you have any preferences for roles?" asked Wang Jie softly.

Yi Shuihan thought about it seriously for a while and then said: "I prefer characters with a little depth, with backgrounds, stories, content, and reasonable behavioral logic. ”

"That's not what I want to know," Wang Jie asked, "What I want to ask is whether you prefer ruthless characters like Zheng Anzhi and Beifeng?"

Yi Shuihan looked at him suspiciously and said, "I never thought so, it's just that these two characters just meet my standards." ”

"Then there will be a problem now!" Wang Jie said in a deep voice: "Because you are too brilliant in playing such a ruthless role, there are many people inside and outside the circle who think that you are more suitable for such a role, so most of the characters invited to audition are such villains now." ”

In other words, your character style is stereotyped. Wang Jie continued.

Yi Shuihan frowned, in fact, the most terrible thing about an actor is that he was prematurely stereotyped.

In this way, you will always be this type of actor in everyone's hearts.

Just like Yi Shuihan played the role of Zheng Anzhi, the audience didn't feel that they thought of Zheng Anzhi when they saw it in other TV series.

It's like they watched Yi Shuihan act in a romance drama but couldn't help but worry that Yi Shuihan would pull out a gun and kill people if he didn't agree with him.

The sense of alienation brought by this will make the audience can't help but play.

This is because Yi Shuihan's performance is too exquisite, and Zheng Anzhi's role is too impressive to everyone.

This is a great problem for many actors, and many actors may not be able to get out of the shadow of a role in decades.

But for Yi Shuihan, this is not too difficult to do.

How to change the stereotype of others?

As long as the role played is more brilliant than Zheng Anzhi, so that everyone is immersed in the play, and there is no mind to think about anything else.

This is undoubtedly difficult for ordinary actors, but Yi Shuihan is confident that he can do it!

Now the crux of the matter is to find a character who will let him out of the shadow of Zheng Anzhi now.

"Brother Jie," Yi Shuihan said with a deep groan, "I have postponed all the auditions for inviting to play villains or negative roles, and you can help me pay attention to the positive roles." ”

Wang Jie nodded, he could understand Yi Shuihan's thoughts, this was the only way now.

Although it is more difficult, he will still use all his connections and connections to help Yi Shuihan find this kind of role.

And, it has to be the main character!

Wang Jie's eyes were solemn, and he secretly made a decision in his heart.

Although Yi Shuihan has not played the leading role so far, Wang Jie believes that with Yi Shuihan's outstanding performance in "Life and Death", he is absolutely qualified and capable of playing any role!

……

Time passes imperceptibly, and the third and fourth episodes of "Life and Death" are about to be broadcast.

Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV's data monitoring is overcrowded, and Lu Hebin and others are looking forward to today's ratings reaching a new high.

And the reporters and editors of those newspapers and magazines are also ready to find out the ratings of "Life and Death" for the first time, so that they can write and publish the manuscript.

In the director's office of Shanying Group, Wang Chaosheng is also waiting for the broadcast of the TV series, from last night to now, he has hardly slept all night, and the premiere ratings have made him so excited that he can't help himself and can't sleep.

"Break five, break five!" he said in his heart.

Although the premiere ratings of "Life and Death" directed by himself crushed "Kowloon Winning the Inheritance", the highest ratings of "Nine Dragons Winning the Inheritance" broke five points.

If he breaks five on the second day, it means that he has far surpassed Yan Fan, the director of "Nine Dragons Winning the Heir".

This is crucial for him who is in competition with Yan Fan.

But things didn't go as expected......

An ordinary family of three, after eating and drinking, the family rests in the sofa.

"Dad, "Life and Death" is about to air, let's watch that. The teenage son said eagerly.

The child's father just wanted to transfer to Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations, but was stopped by the child's mother.

"Don't look at that!" the child's mother said in a resolute tone, "I didn't sleep well all night yesterday, what's so bloody about it! And maybe it will affect the child's psychology, let's look at the others." ”

The child pouted and looked at his father, but he made a gesture that he couldn't help.

Although he thinks that TV series is very exciting, the child's mother also makes sense, and watching such a dark film is not good for children.

……

"Lingling, "Life and Death" is about to be broadcast, do you want to watch it together?" the little sister who lived in the same dormitory called her best friend.

"I don't look at it, I dreamed of the murderer's eyes and a lot of blood in my dreams yesterday, and then I woke up with a lot of fright, and my chest was uncomfortable all the time, you see. The girl named Lingling replied.

"Uh...... Well, then I won't look at it. The girl originally thought it was nothing, but when her best friend said this, she also felt a little scary, so she turned off the TV

……

Such situations and conversations are happening in countless families, and more and more people are choosing to give up because of the style of the film.

In any case, "Life and Death" is broadcast as usual.

"How many ratings?" Before the TV series was broadcast, Lu Hebin couldn't wait to ask, he almost couldn't hold back his excitement.

The statistician looked at the numbers in front of him, opened his mouth but said nothing.

Lu Hebin frowned, put aside the statistician and came to the computer by himself.

An unmistakable row of blue numbers appeared in front of his eyes: 3.1%

"How is it possible! How is it possible!" he frowned tightly, he thought that today's ratings would not decrease even if they did not break five.

But I didn't expect it to drop by a whole percentage point!

Of course, the ratings of 3.1% are not low, but he is worried that if it continues to decline, then this TV series will really be wasted!

"Give me an investigation! See why it has slipped so badly!" Lu Hebin said in a deep voice.

The assistant manager and others around him were silent, and no one dared to touch his brow at this time.

At the same time, Wang Chaosheng also got today's ratings.

He muttered, almost in despair, "3.1, 3.1......"

He never imagined that the ratings would drop so badly.

His ambition and confidence were shattered all at once, although the ratings of 3.1 were still higher than the previous episodes of "Kowloon Succession", he knew that his TV series would not reach the height of "Kowloon Succession" anyway.

"Bastard!" he couldn't help but slam the table to vent his frustration.

He could even imagine how the reporters would mock himself and the show, and he never felt that these reporters had a conscience.

Falling into the well is what they like to do.

The more you pay attention to it, the greater the gap in your heart.

After a long time, Wang Chaosheng sighed and lit a cigarette.

……

Wang Jie's office.

"It's really as you expected, today's ratings have dropped to 3%......" Wang Jie looked at Yi Shuihan in surprise, but he didn't expect that Yi Shuihan not only had excellent acting skills, but also judged the market so accurately.

"Well, there's no way around it. Yi Shuihan also sighed, although he guessed so, he would rather guess wrong.

"Then will the ratings of this TV series continue to drop?" asked Wang Jie with some concern.

Yi Shuihan thought for a while and said: "Probably not, this kind of TV series has some market after all, and today's decline in ratings is just a reduction in a group of viewers who are not suitable for this TV series, it does not mean that this TV series is very bad, and it should be stable to 3%." ”

Wang Jie nodded, and at this time he was more convinced of Yi Shuihan's judgment.
