There is a large screen in the office, and the picture from the computer is projected onto the big screen.

A foreign drama, in German, with an industry-wide logo in the upper right corner, indicating that this is a sample film that has not yet been released.

Zhao Zejun, Song Zhidong and Zhu Xiangyang sat on the sofa and watched the movie.

As for where this sample came from, Song Zhidong and Zhu Xiangyang didn't ask much: Zeyue is currently exploring the overseas film and television entertainment market, and has dealings with many well-known overseas TV stations, and it is not uncommon to get some internal film sources, and it is even possible to directly invest in a certain TV series.

Although it was German, none of the three people present could understand it, but most of this 'little movie' was expressed in body movements and expressions, and it was possible to understand seven or eight points without the need for lines.

The film is not long, and it will be over in more than 20 minutes.

"What do you think?" asked Zhao Zejun.

Song Zhidong's expression was very strange, and he couldn't tell whether it was 'yes' or 'negation', as if he had seen something very inexplicable.

Zhu Xiangyang was similar, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he had a 'bad evaluation' expression.

It's not that the content is inexplicable, the content is not difficult to understand, but the form is too inexplicable.

Since "this ......" is an internal source obtained by Zhao Zejun, and he is mainly asked to watch it, it must be that Zhao Zejun himself has certain expectations for this film, so before Song Zhidong spoke, he considered the words before saying: "There have been precedents for this kind of fragmented short drama for a long time, and some of them are relatively successful." ”

The fragmented short dramas in his mouth are generally called 'sketch dramas' or 'sitcoms' in the mainland. There is no very clear story line in the whole play, although the leading actors are a group of people, but each episode has its own story, and there is little correlation between them.

The story of the editorial department, I Love My Family, are all representatives of this type of drama.

The most famous can be regarded as the 06 phenomenal hit drama 'Wulin Gaiden'.

"What do you think, just say. Zhao Zejun said: "We are now discussing internally, and we can come up with any ideas." ”

"Good. Song Zhidong nodded and said, "However, there is still a difference between this drama and I love my family, it is too separated, and the fragment is too small." Mr. Zhao, you see, although there is no connection between each episode of the previous fragmented dramas, this episode will still have a main story line, and this drama ...... In just 20 minutes, several scenes were changed, and they seemed to be different stories...... Hmmm......"

He paused and said, "Strictly speaking, it can't be a story anymore, it can only be told as a small scene fragment." ”

"Well, you read that right, these 22 minutes are indeed not a complete story, but 6. Zhao Zejun said.

Seeing that Zhao Zejun's attitude was relatively neutral, Song Zhidong was ready to speak again.

But before he spoke, he first glanced at Zhu Xiangyang. Zhao Zejun specially asked him to watch the film with Zhu Xiangyang, and as the president of Zeshi, Zhu Xiangyang is currently the executor of the specific work, but after watching the film, he has not expressed his opinion.

Zhu Xiangyang smiled faintly, nodded and said, "Mr. Song, I also agree with this opinion just now." What do you think, so that we don't think it will seem confusing to both of us. ”

"Good. "Song Zhidong's 'glance' is mainly out of politeness, after watching this film, the advantages and disadvantages are actually obvious, with the other party's qualifications and experience, it will not be impossible to see it, but Zhu Xiangyang and his own identity within the company are different, and there are also some differences between Zhao Zejun's relatives, so some negative evaluations are more appropriate for themselves.

"Also, the performances of the characters in the play, will they, well, be too exaggerated?" Song Zhidong added: "I don't know if the audience can accept it." ”

"Hmm. Zhao Zejun opened his mouth and asked Zhu Xiangyang: "Mr. Zhu, what do you think?"

"Mr. Song said two points just now, and I feel the same way. One more thing to add, it is too fragmented, there is no suspense and the plot behind it hangs the audience's appetite, and whether the audience can have the desire to watch it is also something to consider. ”

Zhu Xiangyang paused and asked: "Mr. Zhao, has this film been released abroad? If someone has already explored the way in front, we can avoid detours." ”

"Not yet. Zhao Zejun shook his head and said: "This is a series, this episode is the first episode of the first season, and it is expected to be released before the end of the year." But I had a small investment in it, so I got the samples. The name is Mad Lady, so the performance is pompous. The positioning of this drama on German TV is a micro-comedy. ”

"Oh. Song Zhidong and Zhu Xiangyang bowed slightly and looked at each other.

Zhao Zejun's meaning is relatively clear, although it is a discussion, but he personally wants to use this film as the object of 'learning', and Zeshi makes a similar web series.

"This kind of drama also has advantages in theory. Zhu Xiangyang said: "It doesn't take a lot of brains, it is very entertaining, and it is more suitable for the current fast-paced life and the Internet, mainly young people, and there is no complete story, which means watching a few fewer episodes, which will not affect subsequent movie viewing." And ......"

He shook his head and smiled, and said: "This kind of seemingly nonsensical thing can sometimes have an unexpected effect, ordinary people live in a world where there are rules everywhere and follow the rules, and suddenly make deviant and unthinkable actions, but it will be refreshing." ”

Yes, Stephen Chow's movie illustrates just that. Being serious and doing something stupid often brings good comedic results. ”

Song added: "However, it also has two difficulties. ”

"Well, let's hear it. Zhao Zejun said.

He was ready to shoot this drama, because later generations proved it to be a success. But I really didn't think about any difficulties.

"Personally, I think the first thing is acting. The essence of nonsense is to do stupid things seriously, in the words that are now popular on the Internet, to be stupid, and the actor is serious about being a fool, but many of our comedies, from actors' performances to screenwriters, are serious and treat the audience as stupid, and there is a big difference between the two......

"This is a brilliant statement!" Zhao Zejun laughed, he liked Song Zhidong's summary very much, and interrupted him a little impolitely: "Mr. Song, your words are too incisive, I think we must keep this sentence in mind whether we are filming online dramas or movies in the future, except for variety shows." ”

"Thank you Mr. Zhao for your compliment, I also came to the mainland to watch a lot of so-called comedies, and I was moved. Song Zhidong said: "Then the second one, there must be a good screenwriter." Because it's so broken, there are several unexpected little baggage in each episode, so it's too important to find a talented screenwriter who doesn't play cards according to common sense. ”

"I've been thinking a lot. Zhao Zejun said a very fresh but very vivid term, without much explanation, and said: "In other words, there must be reliable actors, scripts and directors." ”

Zhu Xiangyang and Song Zhidong both laughed, what I said, if these three are available, they will naturally have a good film.

The question is, where to find all three?

There are many excellent actors, directors, and scripts, but the problem is that they have their own strengths, and the most suitable combination is not necessarily suitable if they are famous, and the right people will not take the initiative to jump in front of you.

It depends on the investor's vision.

"I have a target for me. Zhao Zejun said. 2.
