Chapter 140: Requirements for Radio and Television
Director Liu sat in the hotel for less than 20 minutes before leaving, he came this time to set the tone for this matter, and the specific situation had to be discussed by Li Mu and Zhang Xiuqi themselves.
"Mr. Li, yesterday's incident has caused a very bad impact, although the above has put pressure on the major media and temporarily suppressed the matter, but if we don't come forward to clarify as soon as possible, the situation may be more serious!" Zhang Xiuqi said eagerly.
Since it has been pressed down, how can it be more serious? At most, some gossip tabloids are stirring up fried cold rice, and the masses don't pay much attention to it!
Seeing Li Mu's puzzled expression, Zhang Xiuqi explained: "Our Feitian Award is more traditional, although we don't want to have a live broadcast on TV and the Internet like the Golden Eagle Award, but the award ceremony will generally be put on the Internet the next night, although the number of hits is not very high, but the masses like to watch the excitement, once it starts to spread, coupled with the provocation of people with intentions, it will be too late for us to come forward again!" ”
Li Mu nodded, indeed, once netizens preconceived in their hearts that there was a conflict between themselves and the organizer, it would be difficult to change their impression, at that time, the face of the Feitian Award was lost, and the radio and television might take advantage of themselves, so he said: "Director Zhang is right, so I will hold a press conference in the afternoon, and invite Director Zhang to be present at that time!" ”
"That's natural, the media has already said hello, and when the time comes, you just need to answer a few questions routinely and find a more reliable reason." Zhang Xiuqi also agreed, nodded and said.
Then the two discussed some details, and Zhang Xiuqi still had a bunch of problems waiting for him to solve, so he left first.
Only Li Mu and the three of them were left in the box, looking at Xu Zhiyuan, who had not spoken much, from seeing the high-minded appearance of Director Liu, Li Mu knew that everything today was facilitated by him, and said sincerely, "Director Xu, thank you so much today, if I don't finish filming this movie, it will be troublesome if I get into trouble again!" ”
Xu Zhiyuan waved his hand and said, "It's nothing... It's nothing, I'm just casually mentioning it, and they don't want to make a big deal out of it, and it's not good for anyone to make a big fuss when the time comes! ”
Li Mu knows that radio and television have a way not to make things bigger, so it is definitely not their style to take a step back with themselves, and if it is replaced by others, they may be directly blocked, take a look at the stars that have been banned over the years, Liu Xiaoqing, Zhang Huimei, Yang Yuying, Mao Amin......
These people are all smash hit stars, with fans all over the country, and it's not that radio and television have been banned with a word, so they are not soft.
And what about yourself? is just a small boss of a studio, who has only filmed two TV series, and his fame and influence are far inferior to those people, so he has no worries about blocking himself.
The more Li Mu thought about it, the more fortunate he felt, and when he saw Xu Zhiyuan's gaze, he became more and more grateful.
Then Xu Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Actually, Lao Liu still has a request this time, but there should be no problem for you, this is also your strength!" ”
"Director Xu, even if you say that, as long as I can do it, I will do my best!" Li Mu said immediately.
"Don't be nervous. In fact, it's not a big deal, it's just that the development of local stations has been getting faster and faster in recent years, especially Xiangnan TV, Jiangnan TV and our Beijing TV, all of which are stained with your light, CCTV has not won the first place in ratings for several years, and the director of the Radio and Television Bureau happens to be the director of CCTV, Director Liu wants you to make a TV series and sell it to CCTV! Director Xu said.
That's it? If you want a TV series, you can come to me directly, why didn't anyone contact me before, Li Mu didn't believe it a little, this condition is too simple!
Xu Zhiyuan knew at a glance that Li Mu didn't believe it, and added: "But this time they also have requirements, it can't be idol romance dramas like "Love Apartment" and "You from the Star". ”
Li Mu understood as soon as he heard it, they wanted the main theme or historical drama, and they had never filmed this type of TV series before, so they asked for it.
"Then did Director Liu say what type of TV series he wanted?" Li Mu asked.
"There is no limit to the specific type, but we must respect reality, not too absurd, an alien-themed TV series like "You from the Stars" is definitely not good, it must contain positive energy and positive significance, like historical dramas, criminal investigation dramas, and anti-Japanese war dramas, historical dramas must not distort history too much, and criminal investigation TV series cannot have negative police roles, and the same is true for anti-Japanese war dramas!" Xu Zhiyuan roughly talked about these three categories.
This requirement is high, and the ratings can't be low, there are not a few TV series with these three themes with high ratings in recent years, and there are only "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty" in 05 years, "Yongzheng Dynasty" in 99 years, and "Kangxi Dynasty" in 01 years... These limited historical dramas have been on fire.
And "Black Hole" and "Black Ice", which are popular with criminal investigation themes, obviously do not meet the requirements.
As for the Anti-Japanese War dramas, only "The Sky of History" and "Bright Sword" have been huge successes.
However, this is not a problem for Li Mu at all, and he agreed without thinking about it, after all, there are so many popular episodes in his head.
"Haha, I'll rest assured with your words, then I'll leave first, there's still a lot of things in the station!" After receiving an affirmative reply, Xu Zhiyuan submitted his farewell.
"It's noon, you can have a meal and then leave!" Li Mu hurriedly got up and persuaded.
Xu Zhiyuan waved his hand and declined, "There is an opportunity to eat, it's not bad for this day, I'll go first!" ”
Xu Zhiyuan repeatedly rejected Li Mu's invitation, and Li Mu didn't persuade him anymore, so he went out to see him off.
"Okay, let's eat, and enjoy a big meal even if you're worried about the day."
Li Mu was in a good mood at this time, and called the waiter to order seven or eight dishes in a row according to the menu with his eyes closed.
"Have you finished ordering so many dishes, don't waste it!" Chu Fei said angrily.
"I can't finish eating and packing, what's wasted, eat quickly, finish eating early and wait for the next studio to have a press conference, I have to think of a better excuse, you can also help think about it!" Li Mu said.
"What's there to think about, just say that there is an emergency, anyway, the radio and television have already issued an order, and those reporters don't dare to talk nonsense, we are just making a show!" Chu Fei pursed his lips and continued: "But this time you owe Director Xu a favor again, and the favor he helped you find a shooting location last time has not been repaid!" ”
