Lin Zixuan thought that he had arranged everything in the art center, and Feng Xiaogang was watching from the sidelines, it was not a big problem, but many things did not develop according to his will, and there would always be accidents.
In late April, the TV series "Seahorse Cabaret" had an accident, and some people on it were dissatisfied and wanted to be suspended.
"Seahorse Cabaret" has a total of 40 episodes, an investment of 1.5 million, and the actors include Liang Tian, Zhang Guoli and Chen Xiaoyi.
It is also true that the series sold very well, aired all over the country, had high ratings, and was very popular.
The fame of the actors in the play has increased greatly, and it is like the second "Story of the Editorial Department", which is very good.
The problem lies with the Beijing TV station.
Originally, Beijing TV did not plan to broadcast this drama, for the same reason as Huaguo TV, these two TV stations are in Beijing, and the national leaders in the capital and the ordinary people basically watch these two stations.
Therefore, these two TV stations will be very cautious in broadcasting programs, and Beijing TV generally broadcasts TV dramas that have been broadcast by Huaguo TV, so that no mistake will be made.
There is no way, the water in the capital is too deep, and no one knows which leader will be unhappy when he sees it, and something will happen.
It was all good, but Beijing TV watched "Seahorse Song and Dance Hall" broadcast across the country, and TV stations in other provinces and cities made money, and nothing happened, so I had an idea.
"Seahorse Cabaret" is a drama full of Beijing flavor, since it is popular in other provinces and cities, it will only be more popular in Beijing.
There was no reason to broadcast it on other TV stations, but not on Beijing TV, so they decided to broadcast this drama.
For the sake of prudence, Beijing TV also cut off the beginning and end of "Seahorse Cabaret" and directly broadcast the content of the series.
This is because the lyrics of the opening and ending songs of this drama are relatively negative, with a smell of game dust, not positive enough and the main theme, for fear of causing adverse effects, so I underwent surgery.
This kind of thing is rare in the TV industry across the country.
Even so, less than half of the broadcast, many people reported that the content of "Seahorse Cabaret" was negative, too negative, and had a bad impact on society.
There are many leaders at all levels among these people, and some veteran cadres can't accept this kind of TV series with unhealthy thinking.
Li Hong received a notice from the higher authorities in advance that "Seahorse Song and Dance Hall" would be suspended and criticized by name.
Although no punishment measures were proposed, the naming and criticism was already very severe, and it was a stain on a unit.
Lin Zixuan held a meeting at the art center to discuss how to deal with it, and the art center had not encountered setbacks before, and "The Story of the Editorial Department" was almost stopped from the air.
But this time is different, this time it has been qualitated, and there is no way to undo it.
Moreover, the suspension of broadcasting will definitely be nationwide, and provincial and municipal television stations will also be implicated.
Although there is no need to lose money, it will have a serious impact on the reputation of the art center, and the next time those TV stations buy a TV series made by the center, they will be more cautious, in case it is stopped again.
"This matter is my negligence, I did not do my duty, in the post-production zuò should be more strict, to avoid this situation, I will write a review, take the corresponding responsibility. At the meeting of the unit, Lin Zixuan said frankly.
As the deputy director of the center in charge of TV drama production, it is naturally his responsibility to have problems with TV dramas, which is unshirkable.
"I am the direct head of the department, and it is my responsibility to write a review. Zhang Jiangong said in a deep voice.
"No, Director Zhang reminded me in advance, but I didn't pay attention to it. Lin Zixuan argued.
"I watched the film, and all the opinions I put forward have changed, and I can only say that some people's ideological concepts are still very backward, and they can't get used to seeing the new problems in society, so they can't see it. Zhang Jiangong sighed.
"Don't argue, there will be no administrative punishment for this matter, and it is still mainly based on criticism and education. Li Hong arranged, "We mainly deal with the aftermath, and we must explain it clearly to the TV station that bought the drama series, eliminate misunderstandings, and reduce the impact." ”
"Haima Cabaret" was sold to 31 provincial and municipal TV stations across the country, and when these TV stations were broadcast, there were advertising sponsors, and those advertisers would not be satisfied if they stopped broadcasting.
This is the ripple effect, but it is a force majeure factor, and the art center will not bear their losses.
"Next time, these TV stations will buy our TV series and give them discounts. Lin Zixuan said.
"This can be discussed, but don't compromise too much. Li Hong agreed.
Next, Lin Zixuan personally called TV stations across the country to explain the matter.
When those TV stations heard about it, they took various remedial measures, such as airing four episodes a day, and some even took advantage of the fact that they broadcast eight episodes a day from 8 a.m. on Sundays, so that viewers could watch enough at once.
They want to finish the TV series before stopping the broadcast, which means that there is a policy and a countermeasure.
Some of the people in charge of the TV station can understand, and some are very angry, but there is no way, Lin Zixuan can only patiently explain and try to recover the impact of the suspension on the art center.
It was a wake-up call for him.
thought that "The Story of the Screenwriter's Department" was in danger and the whole society gradually opened up, so that more daring TV series could be filmed, but it turned out that China in this era is still a relatively conservative society.
Especially for Lin Zixuan, who had just returned from Huacheng, he felt even deeper.
The film and television industry in the south is thriving, while the north is still in the stage of exploration, and there are too many restrictions on rules and regulations.
In this matter, he is also thinking about whether he is suitable for development in the system, whether he should leave, and what to do after leaving.
This matter is related to his future life, and he naturally wants to discuss it with Mu Shanshan.
"Do you think I'm suitable for development within the system?" Lin Zixuan asked.
Mu Shanshan looked at Lin Zixuan, the two had also talked about going to the sea to do business before, but at that time, they were mostly joking, and now listening to her husband's tone, it seems that they are really thinking about this issue.
"It's not whether it's suitable or not, it's whether you want it or not. Mu Shanshan said seriously, "Do what you want to do, I support you." ”
"Then what do you think? Do you like to work at Huaguo TV?" Lin Zixuan asked.
"I didn't feel it when I was the host of "Fangda Variety Show", anyway, I just read from the script, and now I do talk shows and participate in behind-the-scenes work, only to realize the difficulties, there are too many things that can't be touched, there are restrictions everywhere, and the programs I make are very different from what I think. Mu Shanshan thought, "But if you don't work in a TV station, where else can you go?"
When the two of them just graduated, they were all assigned by the state, and they were satisfied with a job.
Now that they have grown up, they have their own ideas and pursuits, and at the same time they are also very confused, which is not only the confusion of the two of them, but also the common confusion of Chinese people in this era. (To be continued.) )
