So this time, when SBS made up its mind to win Shi Zhenqiu's new drama, Huang Yanzhou's first director was Chen He, and he didn't have any worries because of his previous failure.

After all, Chen He and Shi Zhenqiu have successful cooperation experience and have a good friendship. With such a director, it is much more likely to convince Shi Zhenqiu.

Sure enough, Shi Zhenqiu easily let them see the script, and also understood what type of TV series he was planning this time.

What Huang Yanzhou and Chen He didn't expect was that this time Shi Zhenqiu actually played an urban action love scene.

However, the content of the script made the two appreciate it very much, and they also saw a lot of new ideas.

Chen He flipped through it and asked suspiciously: "If my guess is correct, there seems to be a shadow of Japanese cartoonist Tsukasa Hojo in this play." ”

This was one of his concerns.

As a director, Chen He's focus is wide-ranging, not limited to China.

So there's nothing strange about him knowing Tsukasa Hojo and his manga.

Faced with his doubts, Shi Zhenqiu admitted it very happily.

"That's right, this play is based on the manga of Mr. Hojo Tsukasa. You can rest assured that I have obtained the rights to adapt this manga in South Korea. ”

Shi Zhenqiu attaches great importance to copyright and does not want to cause trouble for himself.

Although the script was told to him by the voice, since it is an existing comic book, it is not too much of a problem to buy the copyright once.

Fortunately, Tsukasa Hojo was also very happy and happily sold the film and television adaptation rights to him.

Hearing the worries of not having copyright, Huang Yanzhou and Chen He both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then can we talk about the operation of this play?"

Since there is no problem, Huang Yanzhou wants to directly take the right to play in order to avoid long nights and dreams.

But Shi Zhenqiu still had other problems, so he waved his hand.

"Director Huang, don't worry, there are some things that need to be clarified in advance. ”

When the two of them looked at it, Shi Zhenqiu said very frankly: "The two of you have also read the script, and you should know it in your heart." Frankly, don't expect the show to have high ratings. ”

Shi Zhenqiu has the data provided by the voice, so he naturally knows the situation of this drama.

Even at its peak, it was only 19.1%. This is too far from his previous dramas.

In the past, his works did not break 40, which made people feel strange.

In fact, when reading the script, as experienced people, Huang Yanzhou and Chen He did not think about this problem.

Both of them are people with strong backgrounds in TV drama production, and I dare not say that I am 100% guaranteed what type of drama can achieve what kind of ratings, but at least I know what kind of ratings.

It's just that because this drama was taken out by Shi Zhenqiu, they luckily thought that maybe Shi Da's screenwriter was different from others.

Unexpectedly, Shi Zhenqiu pierced this layer of paper by himself.

"That ......"

Huang Yanzhou was a little hesitant.

The reason why SBS wants to win Shi Zhenqiu's play is because he can always create good results. If the ratings of this drama are not high, what else is there to do?

Knowing that he would think so, Shi Zhenqiu smiled slightly, and became a bamboo in his chest.

"The reason why I want to say it in front is because I am afraid of this kind of concern. The two of them may also know that the ratings are not the only criterion for the success of a TV series. In addition to this, there is another benchmark for measurement, and that is impact. The ratings of this drama may not be very high, but it is conceivable that the influence at home and abroad will be very remarkable. ”

Huang Yanzhou understood a little.

"Screenwriter Shi, you mean, this drama can sell high copyrights overseas?"

If that's the case, that's not bad either.

If the country has created an influence, then it will not be affected in terms of selling advertising. If the sales of overseas rights are also very popular, then SBS will still make money.

They don't know, but Shi Zhenqiu knows very well what kind of sensation this drama will cause overseas.

It can even be said that it was from this drama that Korean dramas gradually gained strong attention overseas. And other countries in Asia also regard the introduction of Korean dramas as a special business.

This is where his confidence in bringing out this drama even though the ratings are not high.

"So in terms of broadcast copyrights, I won't ask too much. But when it comes to overseas sales and online sales, I need a reasonable scope. ”

Since the ratings are not very high, Shi Zhenqiu naturally does not need to ask too much for broadcast copyright.

There are so many benefits in total, and if there are more requirements in this aspect, then the other aspects will be reduced accordingly.

In this drama, compared with the broadcast of TV stations, Shi Zhenqiu obviously attaches more importance to overseas and online benefits.

What he said was already very clear, and it also made Huang Yanzhou fall into deep thought.

SBS is different from the other two TV stations, this is a private TV station, and profit is paramount. So the basis for considering any question is whether it can make money or not.

Shi Zhenqiu gave the conditions, so what Huang Yanzhou has to do is to see if there is any profit.

Since Shi Zhenqiu said that this drama will cause a sensation overseas, what he has to think about is what this drama relies on to make waves overseas.

Plot?

Apparently not.

The original manga of this drama has been out for many years and has a lot of fans. It's not too easy to win by plot.

Publicize?

Even more unlikely.

Huang Yanzhou himself works in a TV station, and he is actually very sober about the situation of Hallyu in the world.

Don't look at the domestic boasting, in fact, the influence of Hallyu in the international community is really minimal.

The Asian region is better, but in the whole world, many people don't even know where South Korea is.

So where is the shining point of this play?

Huang Yanzhou quickly figured it out.

K-pop star.

Yes, although the influence of Hallyu is not large, Hallyu stars have a good foundation in Asian countries.

In recent years, Hallyu stars have gone overseas and received a good welcome everywhere. And these are the foundations that support TV dramas to go international.

Knowing this, Huang Yanzhou couldn't help asking: "Screenwriter Shi, can I find out the list of performers for this play?"

People in the industry know that Shi Zhenqiu has his own unique requirements for the list of actors. There is no audition in his play.

But all the main actors, basically he named them, and then the people below just invited them.

If you really can't be invited, you will consider a replacement.

So he is very sure that in Shi Zhenqiu's mind, there will definitely be a complete list of actors.

Sure enough, Shi Zhenqiu did not disappoint him. opened the package, took out a list, and pushed it in front of Huang Yanzhou.

There are so many names on it, and there are almost dozens of names. Some of them are difficult to identify, and special notes are made to avoid finding the wrong person.

But Huang Yanzhou is experienced and doesn't care about the back part at all.

He only looks at the starring roles.

Because he knows that no matter how many actors there are in a play, what the audience cares about the most must be the leading actors.

Only the leading actor can determine the popularity of a play.

What's more, Shi Zhenqiu said that this drama is very influential overseas, so the starring role must be a Hallyu star.

And when he saw several important leading actors, he suddenly felt comfortable.

Shi Zhenqiu's list is really luxurious enough.

Not to mention that the male protagonist Lee Yun-sung is played by Yoon Shi-yoon, the heroine Kim Nana is also played by Lin Yuna of the female queen group Girls' Generation.

These two people can be called a perfect match, unparalleled in the world.

Yin Shiyun has risen rapidly in the past two years, and one film not only made him rise to the top line in China, but also attracted countless fans in Asia.

Not to mention, now he has moved to the film field again, working with big actors like Song Kang-ho and Lee Jung-jae.

It is conceivable that this son's future star journey will be brilliant.

Coupled with his sunny and handsome appearance, the actor who starred in this kind of idol drama is exactly the right place.

The heroine Lin Yuna doesn't need to be said.

It's not like that's beautiful, and it used to be the starring role of a national TV series. And it is very consistent with the image of the characters in the play, and there is no sense of disobedience in acting.

Girls' Generation is even more terrifying in terms of the influence of Hallyu, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the number one girl group in Asia.

Such two leading actors are enough to support the ceiling of an idol drama.

Not to mention the role of the second male Kim Young-so, Shi Zhenqiu chose Ji Chang-wook, who has become famous recently.

And the second female lead, Kim Young-so's ex-wife, Shi Zhenqiu named Yoo In-na.

The remaining president's daughter, Choi Da-hye, and Seo Jin-choo asked to be played by Ji-yeon of T-ara.

In the role of Li Zhenbiao, who is older and heavier in the play, Shi Zhenqiu's favorite object is the veteran actor Jin Xiangzhong.

It can be said that after reading this list of actors, Huang Yanzhou is very satisfied.

This is simply a TV series stacked by Hallyu stars, no wonder Shi Zhenqiu can be sure that it will have a sensational effect overseas.

"Screenwriter Shi, we SBS want this play. ”

The drama that Shi Zhenqiu took out is a big hit.

When he promised to tailor a TV series for Yuna, he thought of this.

Among them, the original female lead, Kim Nana, is played by Park Min Young.

But in Shi Zhenqiu's view, this role is a failure.

Because Kim Nana is a Blue House guard who was born as a judoka, it is obvious that the force is not low.

But Park Min Young is beautiful, but he has a fatal flaw, that is, he is too short.

A guard who looks very short, how can it not look like that.

And Park Min Young's appearance is too gentle and sweet, without the murderous aura of the guards.

On the contrary, in this regard, Yuna is much better.

Her emaciated figure may have made her feel inferior in the past, but it is undoubtedly very suitable to play this kind of crisp and neat guard.

Yuna is tall and has long hands, and when she starred in this kind of action-packed scene, she was very beautiful.

What's more, although Kim Nana is a guard at the Blue House, her life is very hard, and she needs to do various part-time jobs to support herself, and she is a thrifty housekeeper.

And this trait undoubtedly has something in common with Zhang Shibi, who achieved great success in Yun'er back then.

Yuna has a good foundation for playing such a role, and it will be very easy and harmonious.

With so many conditions, Shi Zhenqiu has no reason not to take care of Yun'er. 8)
