Chapter 304: The rivers and lakes of the market

In the project "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Wang Zhongjun is more attentive than Lin Zixuan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the first TV series he participated in investing, and he wants to learn from it the experience of film and television production, and lay the foundation for the future development of Huayi Advertising Company in the film and television industry.

Lin Zixuan has produced many TV series, and he has a bottom in his heart, so he is not so bothered.

Unlike Wang Zhongjun, he does not have high expectations for this TV series.

The original martial arts novel is not well known to the public, the characters of Li Mubai and Yu Jiaolong have not yet been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the audience may not know the origin of these two.

As long as this effect can be achieved, he is satisfied.

If you want more viewers to see "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", the best way is to broadcast it on Huaguo TV.

There are TV series directed by Zhang Jizhong, starring Chen Daoming, and produced by Lin Zixuan, the quality is guaranteed, there is no problem in terms of ideological content, and it is not difficult to broadcast it on Huaguo TV.

They all have a relationship in the station, the key is which channel and which time period of Huaguo TV is broadcast.

This is mainly the meaning of the stands, whether they are willing to promote martial arts films.

Huaguo TV can always play a leading role and drive the creative trend of different types of TV dramas.

It broadcasts "Desire", the urban emotional drama is popular, the broadcast of "The Story of the Editorial Department", the sitcom is popular, the broadcast of "Joke about Qianlong", and the joke that the historical drama is filmed for several years.

This is the influence of national television.

Of course, not all TV series broadcast on Huaguo TV can be popular, there are only a few dramas that really cause a sensation and heated discussions, the main thing is the quality of watching TV dramas and whether they can resonate with the audience.

The TV station is just a broadcast platform, and the people are the final judges.

TV drama producers everywhere are staring at Huaguo TV to understand the audience's preferences.

As a state-level media, Huaguo TV has many restrictions on choosing to broadcast TV dramas.

For example, if a certain year is the anniversary of the victory of the Liberation War, a large number of war-themed TV dramas will be broadcast, and films that show the return of Hong Kong this year and next year, or the one country, two systems, are easy to broadcast in the prime time of the comprehensive channel.

In recent years, the number of channels opened by Huaguo TV has increased.

In January this year, Channel 8 was broadcast to all parts of the country, and this channel is called the Literature and Art Channel, which mainly broadcasts TV dramas.

Lin Zixuan plans to put "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" on the eighth channel that has just started broadcasting on Huaguo TV, and at present, there are not many broadcast resources on Channel 8, and it should be able to win the prime time at 8 o'clock in the evening.

In addition to Huaguo TV, with the relationship between the art center and local TV stations, it is not a problem to sell "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Therefore, he is not worried about whether he can recover the cost, what he cares about is how much impact this TV series can have.

Preparations for the filming of the prequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are already underway, and before that, Lin Zixuan asked Zhang Jizhong to take martial arts instructors to Xiangjiang to exchange experiences with his peers in Xiangjiang.

The purpose is how to make the martial arts drama look better.

Martial arts dramas in the mainland are better in terms of humanities and scenes, but they are not good in terms of martial arts action and rhythm.

Let's put it this way, martial arts dramas in the mainland pay too much attention to literary dramas, giving the audience the feeling of lengthy and procrastinating, which is not neat enough.

Xiangjiang's martial arts dramas will have a fight scene after a while, and there will basically be two or three fight scenes in each episode, which caters to the needs of the audience.

The audience doesn't watch martial arts dramas to see where the two people are reasoning, but to watch the scenes of fighting back and forth.

Since the audience loves to watch plays, why not add a lot of plays, isn't it better to play from beginning to end, the audience is cool to watch, and the ratings will be high.

This is a matter of investment.

Filming a literary drama is where several people have a conversation, it costs less money, filming martial arts requires a lot of preparation, martial arts props, stand-ins, in case someone is injured, they have to be treated, not to mention the delay, this costs money.

Even the crew of Xiangjiang is reluctant to shoot a lot of martial arts, so it is important to master the rhythm of it.

Lin Zixuan arranged for Zhang Jizhong to go to Xiangjiang for exchange in order to improve the overall production level of the second TV series.

We must learn the good aspects of Xiangjiang martial arts dramas, so that we can improve.

The prequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has thirty episodes, telling the story of Li Mubai, Yu Xiulian and Meng Sizhao, this story has not yet been serialized on "Ancient and Modern Legends", but the script has come out.

Novels and screenplays are different.

There won't be so many dialogues in the novel, more of a psychological description, and the script needs a lot of dialogue to explain in order for the audience to understand and figure out the relationship between the characters.

You can't always use narration, because the audience will be easy to play.

As long as Lin Zixuan gives the story outline and character genealogy, the screenwriter can write the script, which does not have to be completely consistent with the novel, and can be played freely.

With the serialization of the prequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", readers have a more comprehensive understanding of this Jianghu, which is slightly different from the rivers and lakes in Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts novels, and is more marketable and secular.

Or rather, civilian martial arts.

In martial arts novels in Hong Kong and Taiwan, heroes are often arrogant, living far away from ordinary people, gangs are very powerful, and even above the government, murdering officials is a normal phenomenon in the eyes of martial arts people.

But in the series of martial arts novels "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", martial arts people are not separated from daily life, and learn martial arts just to make a living, such as Yu Xiulian who relies on darts for a living.

There are also gangs in the novel, but this gang is not very strong, and they have to deal with the relationship with the government if they want to live.

The government and the powerful will also make friends with the people in the rivers and lakes, and the relationship between the two is quite harmonious, rather than antagonistic.

For example, in modern society, the public security bureau also needs a few gangsters in society to do eyeliner, once a case occurs, so as to find out the truth, and the public security bureau generally does not care much about private fights between gangsters.

This is the market-oriented rivers and lakes, there are no heroes who sacrifice their lives for the country and the people, in the final analysis, everyone is just for life.

This kind of martial arts novel seems closer to life and more believable.

However, the benevolent see the benevolent, the wise see the wise, some readers feel that there is no magical martial arts in it, and this hero is not free and easy enough, he is not decisive in killing, he hesitates, and he does not look like a hero at all.

A novel can't satisfy everyone in the first place.

The influence of this series of martial arts novels in China is increasing day by day, and Lin Zixuan believes that through the dissemination of novels and TV series, the characters of Li Mubai and Yu Jiaolong will definitely shine. (To be continued.) )
