Chapter Seventy-Four: TV Drama Consultant

Su Chenyu does have the intention of entering the Hong Kong entertainment industry, on the one hand, for Zhong Chuhong, and on the other hand, naturally because the prospects of the entire Hong Kong film and television industry are very attractive.

But it is obvious that now is not the most suitable opportunity, and the entertainment industry is not like other industries, and connections are very important. In these aspects, Su Chenyu obviously does not have an advantage over the Xiang brothers, who are the head snakes of the land, so it is necessary to invest in a film company that will become big in the future.

Of course, since Su Chenyu has decided to enter the film industry, he will never rush into it unprepared. Therefore, in addition to investing in Xiang Huasheng's Yongsheng Film Company, Su Chenyu also asked Tan Jiageng to keep an eye on Shaw Brothers Cinemas, one of the three major cinema chains in Hong Kong.

Now the glorious Shaw Brothers Film Company has basically ceased production, and the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line has also been loaned to Pan Disheng's Debao Company. However, the Shaw Brothers Cinemas chain is still in the hands of Tycoon Shaw, and it will not be until the 90s that Sir Run Run Shaw will sell the cinema chain to Debao. Su Chenyu was about to intercept Hu of a famous man, so he asked Tan Jiageng to keep an eye on the movements of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line.

Su Chenyu stayed in Hong Kong for about 20 days, because Su Zhenbang had to rush back to deal with some things about Suning clothing and Suning electrical appliances, so he reluctantly left Zhong Chuhong's "gentle township" in mid-August.

After returning home, Su Chenyu didn't stay at home much at all, and then went to the capital with Tian Xiaolu.

You must know that now that the crew of "Desire" has been assembled, Lu Xiaowei also urged Su Chenyu to hurry up and pass by one phone call a day. Therefore, Su Chenyu went straight to the capital soon after returning home, and this time the two families agreed to Su Chenyu and Tian Xiaolu's "trip".

As soon as Su Chenyu and Tian Xiaolu arrived at the Beijing Railway Station, they were picked up by the crew of "Desire", and then arranged for them to stay in the hotel where the crew lived. As soon as Su Chenyu cleaned up here, Lu Xiaowei came over to discuss the adaptation of the script with him.

Originally, Lu Xiaowei and the screenwriters wanted to set a happy ending for "Desire", but after the adapted script was sent to Su Chenyu, Su Chenyu called back and refused directly.

Su Chenyu felt that the open-ended ending in his previous life was the best, because no matter which ending was arranged, someone would be hurt in the end, so it was better to leave everyone with an imagination space for their own arrangements.

Lu Xiaowei hurriedly came to Su Chenyu for the script, you must know that the current crew has been assembled, and they are all waiting for him, the director, and the new script to start filming.

"Xiaoyu, you must know that what people all over the country like to watch is a happy ending. If you leave an open-ended ending like you said, I guess the people of the whole country will not be satisfied after reading it. You know, TV series are different from books, people spend so much time with the living characters in TV series, if the final result is like that, I'm afraid that the people will really scold us. Lu Xiaowei took Su Chenyu's revised script and said with some concern.

"Director Lu, I understand what you mean, but if you really arrange for Huifang and Luo Gang to combine, then it will definitely hurt Yaru, and this is not in line with the purpose of my writing this novel - a good person has a safe life. And Yaru has changed, and most importantly, Huifang's wish is to see Luo Gang, Yaru and Xiaofang's family reunited. Su Chenyu also said his thoughts.

"So, no matter who is arranged and who ends up together, the end result is always someone who gets hurt, so it's better to leave an open-ended ending like this. This is not a vigorous love story, this is a real thing that corresponds to our lives. Su Chenyu said very seriously.

After listening to some of Su Chenyu's thoughts, Lu Xiaowei couldn't help but feel a little messy, so he said goodbye and went back to think about it. Su Chenyu looked at Lu Xiaowei who was leaving, and knew that he would definitely figure it out, because in his previous life, he set up this ending method that gave everyone room for imagination.

The next day, when Su Chenyu saw Lu Xiaowei again, his appearance had already told Su Chenyu that he had decided to use the ending method that Su Chenyu said. Therefore, now Lu Xiaowei decided to start filming immediately after delaying for so long.

The starring role of "Desire" in this life has not changed much compared with the previous life, and the original cast still plays those roles. The five main roles have not changed in the slightest, Liu Huifang is still played by Zhang Kaili, Song Dacheng is played by Li Xuejian, Huang Meiying plays Wang Yaru, Sun Song and Zheng Qianlong play Wang Husheng and Luo Gang respectively.

Since "Desire" is a chamber drama, the requirements for some framing aspects are very low, and the cost is naturally low. However, no one would have thought that this low-budget "Desire" would continue to record shocking ratings when the book had already become a hit, and establish the status of the pinnacle "divine drama" in one fell swoop.

Su Chenyu, as the original creator and artistic consultant of this TV series, naturally attracted the attention of the entire crew. Especially after everyone knows that Su Chenyu, a young and unspeakable big boy, is the famous Chen Shiyu, they all like him very much.

Many cast and crew members brought the books they bought at the time for Su Chenyu to sign, and it is obvious that Su Chenyu is now famous in the literary world. Among the many book fans in the crew, Su Chenyu remembered one person - Zhao Baogang, whose name was famous in later generations, but he didn't expect to become his own book fan.

In the past few days, Tian Xiaolu has not been idle, and after discussing with Lu Xiaowei, Su Chenyu asked Tian Xiaolu to play a small supporting role in it. Although this is only a small supporting role, it is obviously extremely rare for Tian Xiaolu, a student who is about to enter the film school.

Su Chenyu's arrangement to give Tian Xiaolu such a small role naturally has deep meaning, and the current Tian Xiaolu must not be able to provoke Liang to play the heroine and the main supporting actress. Even for some small supporting roles, other directors may not give her such a girl who has no acting skills and has never gone to film school, but after all, there is Su Chenyu here. Moreover, Su Chenyu wanted Tian Xiaolu to gradually enter the state of an actor through her experience in the crew of "Desire" this time, and figure out her acting skills a little.

In the eyes of many people, the job of an actor is easy and can make a lot of money and become famous, which is much easier than other industries.

Actually, otherwise, the actors I'm talking about are not the so-called stars of later generations, relying on participating in some shoddy things and walking the catwalks everywhere, they say that they are idols and powerful factions. A real actor's work is very hard - especially those TV drama workers in the 80s and 90s, their work attitude, spirit and acting skills are not comparable to some stars in later generations.

"Tired, right?" Su Chenyu looked at Tian Xiaolu who threw herself on the bed, and said distressedly: "It's not too late to give up the idea of being an actor now." ”

Tian Xiaolu jumped up suddenly, and then said casually: "Who said that you are tired? I found it very interesting. ”

"I saw you in the crew and was criticized by Director Lu several times. Su Chenyu sat on her bed, and then said with a smile.

In the past few days, because of Tian Xiaolu's role, Su Chenyu's consultant in the crew at this moment is naturally clear to see.

Although Tian Xiaolu is very talented in acting, there is no way, after all, he has no professional training, and he participated in the filming of a TV series for the first time. Therefore, every time Tian Xiaolu's scene is filmed in the past few days, not only Tian Xiaolu is embarrassed, but even Lu Xiaowei is a little embarrassed.

Lu Xiaowei naturally has a dilemma, he knows that the relationship between Su Chenyu and Tian Xiaolu is not ordinary, so he can't say anything about Tian Xiaolu, who is always "stuck", and he can't train him. Fortunately, the rest of the crew was very tolerant of this beautiful little girl and understood her first shooting, so they all encouraged her.

"After all, it's the first time to shoot a TV series, so naturally I'm nervous. Tian Xiaolu quibbled with Su Chenyu.

"Are you still nervous?" Su Chenyu said with a smile.

Tian Xiaolu suddenly pounced on Su Chenyu, kept playing with Su Chenyu, and kept saying: "Stinky Xiaoyu still dares to make fun of me, see if I don't clean you up today." ”

Obviously, the final result was not that Tian Xiaolu cleaned up Su Chenyu, but that Su Chenyu cleaned up Tian Xiaolu. After a while, Tian Xiaolu wiped her lips with a red face, and watched Su Chenyu get up from the bed with affection.

"It was a stinking drizzle, and I almost couldn't breathe. Tian Xiaolu muttered: "You help me find a way, tomorrow I will have my role again, I don't want to be embarrassed anymore." ”

Su Chenyu thought for a while, and then said: "Haven't you watched "Desire" several times, you just fantasize about yourself as the character you want to play." And what kind of cameras, cameramen, and even directors, you just treat them as turnip and cabbage, so you won't be nervous. ”

"Does it work?" Tian Xiaolu asked as she stared at Su Chenyu.

Su Chenyu thought to himself: I don't know if it will work, but he still gave a positive answer: "It naturally works, if you don't believe it, you can try it tomorrow." ”

"Okay, then I'll try it tomorrow. Tian Xiaolu said happily as if she had received some magic weapon.

I don't know if Su Chenyu's method really worked, or if Tian Xiaolu suddenly got the hang of it, and Tian Xiaolu's several scenes the next day were very good. Even Lu Xiaowei, who has always criticized Tian Xiaolu, finally praised her a few words, which really made Tian Xiaolu happy for a long time.

By the end of August, the filming of "Desire" had gradually entered the formal, and Su Chenyu's role as a consultant seemed to be temporarily over. The most important thing is that Tian Xiaolu is about to start school, and Su Chenyu and her have to go back first to make preparations for admission.

Therefore, Su Chenyu told Lu Xiaowei what he meant the day before, although Lu Xiaowei still wanted Su Chenyu to stay in the crew for a while longer, but now there is really nothing for Su Chenyu to solve.

"Director Lu, there's nothing going on with the crew here, and even if there's something, there's still a phone call. Su Chenyu said to Lu Xiaowei: "And at the beginning of September, I still have to send Xiaolu to study at the Beijing Film Academy." ”

"Okay, but I'll have to say it first, if there's anything to trouble you, you can't excuse yourself. Lu Xiaowei said after thinking for a while.

Su Chenyu smiled: "That's natural, I also want to make a "Desire" that is most in line with the spirit of the original book." ”

"That's good!" Lu Xiaowei agreed.

Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Lu Xiaowei suddenly said to Su Chenyu: "There is another thing to trouble you, a talented consultant." ”

"What's the matter?" asked Su Chenyu.

"You have to write the lyrics for both the theme song and the ending song of 'Desire'. Lu Xiaowei said.

Su Chenyu pondered for a moment, and then said, "Okay, no problem. I'll send it to you when I'm done. ”

Su Chenyu remembered the two classic songs that were sung across the country that year - "Desire" and "A Good Man Has a Safe Life", so he agreed lightly.

At the end of August, Su Chenyu and Tian Xiaolu stepped on the train home, and Su Chenyu temporarily stepped down as a consultant to the crew of "Desire......
