Chapter 417: Pressure is Motivation!

……

If you have to pick one thing that is most unfair in the world, you must decide the differences between people.

In fact, it's not a birth, it's not a crossing, it's not the protagonist's aura.

It's intelligence.

Different from people's usual cognition, the so-called emotional intelligence or financial quotient are actually pseudo concepts, which are extracted separately for the sake of easy understanding, but in fact, they are all included in the category of intelligence.

Intelligence has its own embodiment, some people are well-informed, some people are familiar with the class, and some people have outstanding imagination, such as those who have read thousands of pieces, and their righteousness is self-seeing, and there are codes in their eyes and no codes in their hearts.

It's hard to parse, like understanding.

Cao Fangfang has never thought of how smart he is, mainly handsome. But he only read an online article, and he still swallowed it, and he didn't even realize that he had deliberately thought about it, but subconsciously combined with his work experience in the film and television industry, and analyzed the very huge outline of this industrial chain.

Tian Anbang asked him why he didn't fit.

He said: "Obviously, in terms of content, the most important elements of a good-looking TV series are that the story is exciting, the characters are plump, and it is best to have a little idea, of course, it is okay if there is none...... The commercial success of a film is more complicated, but being able to tell a story in about two hours is a basic requirement. ”

"I haven't seen anything else, let's just say that the characteristics of this type of online text, large length, fragmentation, and upgrading, what I see is the pleasure of the protagonist constantly becoming powerful, and the elements needed for film and television dramas are very weak, such as the relationship between the characters, if all the characters are to serve the condition that the protagonist becomes powerful, the contradictions and conflicts of the characters will seem naΓ―ve and unreasonable...... Maybe it has something to do with the speed at which they write. ”

"In terms of content, the story is too rough, the characters are face-painted, and many plots can still be swallowed in the online text, but when it is placed in the TV series, let the real person star, whether it is the lines or the behavior, it will be amplified, and it looks particularly mentally retarded, and the Xianxia online text is transformed into the biggest selling point of the TV series, the visual spectacle...... This requires special effects support...... It is simply not possible to do it in terms of cost budgeting. ”

Tian Anbang heard with a straight face that now, the old tree blossomed and pulled out a smile, "Why can't you do it? Why can people do Hollywood movies and American dramas? Is your salary too high?"

"How is it possible? Saying that actors' salaries are too high to restrict the performance of domestic film and television dramas is like saying that smoking causes smog and intermediaries speculate on housing prices...... The result is not the cause. ”

Cao Yifang returned to the economic field he is good at, explaining: "The market size is the biggest factor, people have a special effects blockbuster, the investment is often hundreds of millions of dollars, and our domestic films remove the water, and the real investment is more than 700 million, and it takes three times the coefficient to return to the cost......"

Tian Anbang rarely listened to it with relish, and he still liked the way Cao Fangfang was talking about things.

"We basically only eat the domestic market, and the United States eats the whole world, how many movies can we have with a box office of more than 2.1 billion? The market is so big, if we rashly invest in special effects films, even if we can make a finished product that is exactly the same as a Hollywood blockbuster...... Of course, because of the lack of their industrial system, we will definitely use a greater price, but imagine that even if we use the same cost, we can shoot the same work. ”

Cao Yifang spread his hands: "Where to make money? Is there enough food in a domestic market? How big is the risk? The global invasion of rice culture for so many years is not fake, their blockbusters eat the global market, plus more profitable movie peripherals, a superhero movie, the local box office often accounts for less than 10% of the total revenue, what about us? Most of them are more than ninety percent." ”

"We can basically radiate neighboring countries and Asian cultural countries at most, otherwise a commercial special effects blockbuster played by a yellow race, Europe and the United States don't buy it at all, but we are willing to pay for their blockbusters...... Cultural invasion for so many years, not just talk about it, it is reflected in income. ”

"Let's not talk about the surroundings, there is no intellectual property, and this large amount of money is not to be made. ”

"As for the form of learning American dramas, it is also nonsense, we can learn to talk about the table of the season, continue to shoot if the ratings are good, and cut if they are not good, but we can't learn how they charge to watch dramas, there are not enough paying groups, and the real big investment TV series can't be done. ”

"Besides, since low-cost romances, palace fights, and now house fights, or relatively low-cost period dramas, costume dramas can make money, why take a big risk to engage in special effects? ”

To sum up, the dream of special effects adapted from online texts is shattered. ”

Cao Fang pinched his ears and thought, and said slowly: "But of course, there are ways to do it relatively well...... is to save money first, and then throw the money on the blade, the special effects are centralized, a 50-episode TV series, focusing on five to ten special effects scenes, and the others are piled up with more props and manpower, the most stupid way to play, just like we used to fight. ”

"Then the special effects can only be like this, and the content is not suitable, what should I do?" Tian Anbang asked.

"Thousands of characters, of course, can't all move in, fragmented stories can't be completely photographed, such a long upgrade line, countless subdivision maps, definitely can't be done. ”

Cao Fangfang said depressedly: "Actually, I think this kind of is only suitable for animation, not for live-action film and television, especially the story and dialogue, which is very direct and rude...... If I want to invest in filming in the future, I must choose a network with a strong story, preferably a short article and concise characters. ”

Tian Anbang gloated, "But you have already taken it, how do you plan to change it?"

"If you copy it, there is not enough space, the special effects are insufficient, the story is naΓ―ve, and the logic is poor...... Definitely not, the road is dead. ”

After Cao Yifang pondered it for a while, he now really understands why so many fantasy adaptations were scolded in his previous life, because those screenwriters are also very embarrassed, if they are completely filmed, it will be a bad movie!

But although the first road is dead, there is actually an opening in the second way, and that is the ability of the screenwriter.

Good screenwriters are reluctant to change fantasy dramas, and good screenwriters don't understand the Internet, they are old, and it is difficult to understand what the selling point of this thing is, so they can only change a four-like.

"You find me a young screenwriter and give me a hand. Cao Fang finally said.

"Yes. "Tian Anbang is very crisp at this time.

……

Cao Fangfang did have some interest, but he was more forced by the market, forcing you to upgrade your second ability in addition to acting.

The foundation of an actor's life is a good work, but real high-quality content is always scarce, and the best TV drama scripts are among the major companies in the Beijing circle, and the cake is not enough, he can't eat it, even if he can eat it, it's really not enough.

He didn't expect that even such a popular student as himself would not be able to receive decent good works, so the following ...... of the entire actor ecological chain One can imagine how awkward the situation is.

The foundation of the entertainment industry, the content industry is so barren, what can we talk about a cultural power?

He originally saw many online adaptations of TV series, and he was a little unimpressed, but after really getting in touch, Cao Fangfang found that this savagely growing and overgrown field was actually the last skylight of the content industry.

In addition to the immortal sin, he read several more works that are now best-sellers.

Both have serious shortcomings, but there are also shining highlights.

Some of the brains are already worthy of Marvel and DJs in the United States, and even surpass the rigor of the setting.

It was around this time that Cao Fangfang began to have the habit of reading online articles...... Among the actors who are busy making money, they are unique.

After going back, he took a look on the Internet again, and the ratings and reputation of some Xianxia dramas that have been released recently.

The ratings are okay, but with the collapse of quality and reputation, it seems that one is worse than the other.

The Sword of the Immortal is the earliest work to follow the Fairy Sword, with a score of 6.3 points on the old gluttonous network, and "Tianjun" filmed by Liu Yuanqian is obviously a larger investment and more expensive IP, but the score is only 4.2 points.

Most of the comments are spittle-spitting.

[In order to reward a bad review, I specially registered an account...... Why did Director Liu have to put this piece of on a plate and serve it to the table?]

[In the new era of Xianxia without special effects, can you lead the flying sword with a line......]

[The director hasn't read the original book, right? The original party spoilers are incompetent, and they can't stand the people. 】

[Pei Jun really can't act, except for smiling or convulsions, I'd rather you be paralyzed to the end! And the ratings are average, aren't they the four major traffic?

[The special effects are exquisite, catch up with the British Super Beauty, Pei Jun's looks, the heroine is captivating, the rhythm is also compact, not water at all, five-star praise! 】

[Tianyi's masterpiece was ruined like this......]

Cao Fangfang has a special function, he can quickly find content related to himself in a large number of comments.

Many of them mentioned that he would star in future Xianxia dramas.

[It is highly recommended that I still let Cao star in Xianxia dramas in the future!]

The reply below this article.

[Am I Cao?Cao Shaoqin?]

[Yes, it's the eunuch.] 】

[Before the eunuch was castrated, there was a graceful name named Li Xiaoyao......]

[I also think Cao Fang's Yan and acting skills can hold up!]

[The ancient style is particularly handsome!]

[There is a saying that Cao Fang can't save this kind of big bad movie. 】

[None of the people with Grandpa Cao are bad movies!]

[I heard that the immortal sin was also established, and the starring role was on the Cao side. 】

[(I'm Cao)?!I'm flustered and looking forward to it.,Won't you ruin the original work?Can you write a letter to the director and shoot according to the original book!]

[Fairy Sword didn't exactly follow the game script......]

[You have to respect the original party!]

Cao Fangfang saw it very weakly, he suddenly regretted it, and took this Xianxia drama again...... It's a pit.

The popularity brought by Xianjian will soon dissipate, and most of the audience actually can't figure out the irrationality of this kind of Xianxia adapted into a TV series, but the aesthetics are there, and it is getting more and more ugly, so don't watch it.

When he finished filming and was really released, he was bombarded with bad movies for a few more rounds in the middle, and the audience must have been aesthetically fatigued, and then the TV station felt that the ratings were not good, and they couldn't sell at a high price...... That's not the point for him, it's his reputation that matters.

The fans' expectations made him restless.

In the end, he still didn't feel at ease to hand over the script to others, so he could only do it himself, and then let Lao Tian's students do it for himself, and take care of all the follow-up revisions.
