Chapter 851: Ratings Guaranteed
In the end, it led to a script that the director valued very much, and the final market response was very rubbish.
Many capable directors shoot literary films halfway or something, which is a similar situation.
To put it simply, even a capable director can't just look at the script to determine whether the work is good enough. But Xu Qing is here, and all the works he took out are excellent works from the previous life.
The script of "The Romance of My Father and Mother" is definitely at the level of full marks in Huaxia, and the level of "Flower Thousand Bone" is actually more than 95 points.
It's not that Hua Qiangu is admired, in short, although this work is plagiarism. But the effect after plagiarism is really good. And the actual result is that the subject matter chosen for this plagiarized work happens to be a popular theme in China.
In Chinese TV dramas, the theme of war occupies two-thirds of the country. But to put it simply, there are many works, and they are not necessarily excellent.
These works have been strengthened with the support of the relevant departments. It does have a certain market share among the elderly. But to put it simply, almost none of the young people will buy it.
In such a situation, although the number of war-themed TV series is large, it even reaches two-thirds of the horror. But in reality, there are very few excellent works.
After so many years, "Bright Sword" is a rare classic. Baoqiang's TV series has also received a good response, but Baoqiang's here is already a modern story. In fact, it is not suitable to compare them with those war dramas that are not of the same era.
After all, "Bright Sword" is a lone seedling. Huaxia accounts for two-thirds of the total war-themed TV series, and there is only one classic.
On the contrary, it is the theme of Xianxia and mythology, which has always been relatively strong in the field of Chinese TV dramas. The number is not so much, but because of the special Chinese somewhat superstitious background. TV series with the theme of mythology and fairy tales are already a popular TV series category second only to war themes in China.
And the classics among them are indeed dozens of times the theme of war.
In Xu Qing's own opinion, the story of Hua Qiangu is just like that. Many stalks were already seen by Xu Qing in Xianxia novels ten years before Hua Qiangu.
But at the end of the day, this TV series really grabbed the audience's attention. On the one hand, it is because young girls account for more than seventy percent of the young people who like to watch TV dramas. And it just so happens that Hua Qiangu caters to the hobbies of this part of the TV series audience.
On the other hand, this world is actually the dark period before the dawn before the IP adaptation.
If Xu Qing takes out some mythological fairy fantasy works that are very classic later, the audience of TV dramas at this stage may be a little unaccustomed to it.
In such a situation, if you come up with an easy-to-understand story like "Flower Thousand Bone", it is just in line with such an ascendant stage. Under such circumstances, Xu Qingcai gave a score of 95 points for the script of "Flower Thousand Bone".
If "Clever Little Don't Understand", the script is actually a little worse, which can be regarded as Xu Qing's test of the waters. But to put it simply, whether such a work can be popular or not depends on whether Sun Yi can open it up, and the influence of the script is smaller. But even so, how can "Clever Little Don't Understand", which received a very good response in the previous life, have a score of more than eighty-five points.
And Xu Qing's words here, the works that will be taken out in the future, the script should not be worse than this.
At the end of the day, other directors can't guarantee that the script they choose will be suitable. However, all the works that Xu Qing took out have undergone the test of the market, proving that they have at least 85 points or more.
As for the director's ability, it is actually similar. With the finished memories of the previous life in his mind, Xu Qing actually didn't need to play by himself at all. Therefore, in terms of director's free play, Xu Qing is even more stable at the level of more than 95 points.
If the actor is here, there is no way to do it, he can only train himself. But to put it simply, even if it is cultivated by himself, because Xu Qing already has the finished results of the previous life. When giving advice to others, he can always say the main points.
Therefore, even the original 60 actors, under the guidance of Xu Qing, can at least play at the level of more than 70 points.
In fact, Xu Qing's luck is not bad, these people he found before are still very good. After experiencing the tempering of "The Romance of My Father and Mother", my acting skills have also been sublimated.
Sun Yi's original acting skills level of 70 points now has at least 85 points. Zhang Min's starting point is a little lower, and he originally only had a maximum of 55 points in his acting skills. But under Xu Qing's somewhat harsh guidance, plus Zhang Min himself really worked hard enough. In such a situation, after refining from "The Romance of My Father and Mother", Zhang Min's acting skills are almost at the level of eighty.
Wen Yunyun and others have a high starting point, but the five-star is not as high as Zhang Mingao. In fact, the level of effort is also a little worse. originally had a passing acting score of 60 points, but after the transformation, now there are more than 70 points.
To put it simply, the level of these actors under Xu Qing's hands may not be explosive, but they are not too bad. In fact, many crews in the previous life, when they found actors, they often ended up not paying much attention to filming because of the stars playing big names, which led to the lowering of the level of the work. But Xu Qing's words here are the situation that everyone's contracts are in Xu Qing's hands.
To put it simply, Xu Qing can be a little nicer to everyone. But if anyone is really ignorant, who Xu Qing wants to sanction, it is really as simple as playing. Dare to play a big name in front of Xu Qing, that's good. It just so happens that your contract is in my hands. You are ready to eat the northwest wind for the next five years.
If you don't want to ruin your future, don't talk about it. So the actor here should be considered a guarantee.
There are several influencing factors that affect the work of a TV series, Xu Qing's work here, the script is guaranteed to be above the level of 85 points. And in fact, except for the special case of "Clever Little Don't Understand". In fact, Xu Qing may not necessarily come up with a script below 90 points in the future.
In terms of directing, Xu Qing is above the level of 95 points. It's not Xu Qing's own ability, but it does perfectly copy the ideas of the directors of those successful works in the previous life.
In the words of investors, it is Xu Qing's own 100% investment. And certainly not to hold back.
The level of the actors is not too high, but in short, it is not too bad.
Therefore, even if other factors are taken into account, Xu Qing's works here cannot be lower than the eighty percent level at worst.
