Chapter 47 of the main text volume

Next chapter

Li Hong's actions were very fast, and the next day he sent the outline of "The Story of the Editorial Department" for everyone to discuss.

Although she is the head of the art center and is able to make decisions, this internal discussion process cannot be avoided to make the staff below feel that their opinions are taken seriously, and to avoid being perceived as arbitrary.

Even if it is a formality and a formality, it must be in place and not leave a handle for others.

Working in a unit is like this, there is a set of fixed patterns, which may seem rigid and inefficient to outsiders, but this is the basis for a stable operation of a unit.

The employees below are not stupid, and when they see the names on the outline, they have a score in their hearts.

Working at Huaguo TV, he is still in charge of the production of TV dramas, some people may not know Lin Zixuan before, but with the popularity of "Desire", Lin Zixuan's name is well-known to people in the circle.

People in the TV industry and viewers have different perspectives on a TV series.

The audience watches the plot and actors, and the insiders watch the producer, director and screenwriter, these three are the key to the success of a TV series, and the actors are not so important.

Whether it is the TV series that makes the actors, or the actors who make the TV series, is a topic that is difficult to say.

But in the TV circle, it is generally believed that it is the TV series that makes the actors.

As long as the producer has the means, the director has the ability, and the script is brilliant, the actors are not just picked at random, to put it mildly, whoever is praised is popular, and the actors are the operators on the assembly line.

Many times it is said that so-and-so actor is popular with so-and-so director, and it is rarely said that so-and-so director is popular with so-and-so actor.

This is the opinion of most of the people behind the scenes of TV production, and it shows their importance in this way.

Of course, actors play an immeasurable role in TV dramas, especially those actors with good acting skills, who can improve the level of TV dramas, and the two complement each other.

As the planner and screenwriter of "Desire", although Lin Zixuan is not famous among the audience, he has a reputation in the TV circle.

Moreover, there is no impermeable wall in the world, everyone works in the TV station, and the relationship between Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan cannot be hidden.

At this time, there were only more than 20 people in the Beijing Television Art Center, some of whom were employees of the original Huaguo TV Station, who were Li Hong's cronies, and some of them were Li Hong's helpers from outside.

It can be said that they are all Li Hong's centaurs, and she has no interest in those people at both ends of the first rat.

understands the relationship between Li Hong and Lin Zixuan, and the people below naturally know that Li Hong wants to shoot "The Story of the Editorial Department", except for a few people who are worried that this book is a bit risky, everyone else has no opinion.

After all, with the hit drama "Desire" in front, no one dares to say that "The Story of the Editorial Department" can't be a hit.

Lin Zixuan knows how to be a person, he writes out the outline and story content, and lets everyone participate in the creation later.

Eating alone in the unit will be hated by others, and the benefits will be shared equally, and it is the right way to be with the light and dust, and this is not an era of showing off your personality.

He doesn't want to make it difficult for Li Hong, as a group, everyone is really good.

After discussing with Li Hong, he focused on writing the script of "Alien Girl", which cooperated with Huacheng TV and could exchange financial support for the art center.

Huacheng TV tried to separate production and broadcasting in the past few years, and there are many private or film and television companies from Xiangjiang in Huacheng.

They have abundant funds, cooperate with local TV stations, and use the method of joint filming of mainland actors and Hong Kong actors to push Hong Kong's funds and actors to the mainland.

This is the same reason that Baodao TV wants to cooperate with the mainland to shoot TV series.

Whether it is Xiangjiang or Baodao, there are limitations, and there is no way to shoot big scenes, most of them are filmed in the studio.

For example, if you want to shoot two countries fighting, and more than a dozen people are fighting there with weapons, is this a brawl or a war. ,

The landscapes, quaint buildings and cheap extras of the interior have a great attraction for them.

After the separation of the Beijing Television Art Center and Huaguo TV, if Baodao TV wanted to get the opportunity to shoot TV dramas in the mainland, it had to come to Li Hong, and the two sides signed a co-production agreement in order to obtain the mainland's entry filming permit.

Baodao TV was quite anxious about this, and they sent the outline of the script just after the Chinese New Year.

According to the agreement between the two parties, the content of the script should not be too sensitive, it should not promote politics and violence, and it should not involve special times and special historical figures.

Baodao TV sent three script outlines, all of which are historical dramas, all of which are stories that happened hundreds of years ago.

One is to tell the story of the first female emperor in the history of Huaguo, and the second is to tell the story of a loyal martyr of a certain dynasty in Huaguo, who sacrificed his life for the country, and the women in the family became widows, and these widows went to the battlefield to serve the country and kill the enemy.

The third is a drama drama, about an emperor's private visit, going to the south of the Yangtze River to play, meeting beautiful women by the way, and punishing traitors.

These three dramas all have big scenes, and they are real big-scale zuò, and they can't be won without millions.

Compared with the embarrassment of the art center, Lin Zixuan could only smile bitterly, if he had enough funds, he could also write any emperor, what dynasty history script, definitely no worse than these scripts on Treasure Island.

This is the first cooperation between the mainland and Baodao in the field of TV dramas, and Li Hong attaches great importance to it and does not want to make any mistakes.

It is said that the two are co-produced, but in fact, the funds are provided by Baodao, and the main actors and various shooting equipment are also arranged by Baodao.

The art center can provide logistical support, recommend actors from the mainland, and organize extras, etc.

In the contract, the proportion and salary of mainland staff in the crew should be stipulated, and the wage standards between the two places are very different, so in order to avoid disputes arising therefrom, it is necessary to explain in advance.

As a member of the screenwriting team of the Arts Center, Lin Zixuan is responsible for following up the script creation of the treasure island and reviewing the content of the script.

For example, there may be deviations in the understanding of historical figures and events between the two places, and positive historical figures cannot be scandalized or distorted.

After discussing with Li Hong, he decided to agree to co-produce that drama type TV series with Baodao TV.

The heroine of the female emperor is too ruthless, killing too many people in order to ascend the throne, and even treating her own children as chess pieces, which does not conform to the main theme of Huaguo.

It's good for the female general to go out to this drama, but it's a pity that the traitorous ministers in the play are in charge, brutalizing the loyal and good, the emperor is indecisive, and the director is full of widows.

In the end, the drama of history is good, the emperor is wise, the ministers are capable, and he went to Jiangnan to eliminate violence and peace, which has both children's love and martial arts scenes, a very happy drama.

The key is that there are no hidden dangers in the content, and at most it will be scolded by historians for a few nonsense, which will have little impact.

Even after the filming is completed, it will be broadcast on Baodao TV first, and if the response is good, Huaguo TV will introduce it to the mainland.

As a result, this script called "Joking about Qianlong" has become the first TV series filmed jointly by the mainland and Baodao. For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
