Chapter 681: Reject All Your Thoughts (3/4)
Jin Zhiwen was the lowest arranger in the music industry five years ago, and his good voice made him popular, and now he has become the mainstay of the music world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Jin Zhiwen? I'm Mr. Liu, I want to ask you something, do you have anything to do with "Chinese Singer-Songwriter"? Can you please inquire and help a few juniors sign up? ”
Jin Zhiwen agreed, he knew that Liu Feng was a mentor in it, and it was too easy to help deliver the recommended candidates.
After hanging up the phone call of the teacher at his alma mater, he called Liu Feng again and asked for the contact information for registration and the email address of the person in charge of a program group.
Seeing the beginning of this mailbox, he was stunned, the name zhangdi1019 he had seen before, it was a choreographer and director of the company's "The Voice of China" program group, what does this mean?
Jin Zhiwen thought for a long time, and called Liu Feng for the second time: "Teacher, "Chinese Singer-Songwriter" is our company's own program? ”
Liu Feng didn't know where to show the stuffing: "Don't talk nonsense! ”
Jin Zhiwen said the email address of the internal registration channel: "Zhang Di, I know, I have a good relationship with him......"
Liu Feng hurriedly said: "You just know about this, don't make a noise, if it comes out outside, I will count it on your head!" ”
Jin Zhiwen was taken aback, he didn't dare to talk about this topic anymore, after hanging up the phone, he got in touch with Zhang Di, and he didn't talk about the ownership of the program, just said that he recommended several juniors and sisters from his alma mater, Zhang Di accepted it and asked Jin Zhiwen to send the information to his mailbox.
Since then, Jin Zhiwen has grown grass in his heart, paying attention to the news of "Chinese Singer-Songwriter" all day long, saying today that the number of applicants exceeded 5,000, the next day he said that he had found a few good seedlings, and a few days later said that the mentors had also been determined, in addition to Liu Feng, there are also several veteran Chinese singer-songwriters in Hong Kong and Taiwan, all of whom have been famous for many years, or rising stars who are loved by young people.
Jin Zhiwen is very envious, he himself wants to participate in this show, but the program team strictly stipulates that famous singers are not allowed to be on it.
This rule blocked his way, and he could only watch the younger students receive the notice from the program team to go to Zhongjing to participate in vocal training, conduct auditions, and discuss song creation skills with Yang An, etc., I can't envy it!
The program "Chinese Singer-Songwriter", at the request of Yang An, from the overall preparation to the preparation of the repertoire by the students themselves, the production cycle has become half a year, that is to say, it will be broadcast on New Year's Day next year, in the first full broadcast season of the next year, spanning the entire Spring Festival holiday.
Why did he do this, Yang An didn't explain it to anyone, he had always been uneasy in his heart, he hoped that that incident would never happen, and if it happened, he still had a way out.
Because the time cycle is too long, it is too difficult to produce good original songs, and Yang An himself will not participate in the competition, so the specific process of the competition in this show will not be mentioned for the time being.
Yang An's main focus is still on "Let's Cross", this show will be broadcast in September, and they still have three months to prepare.
The first shot must be fired and must be exciting.
So about what to put in the first episode, director Zhang Guoli and producer Yang An had the first disagreement.
In May, Zhang Guoli's "Old Bao Qingtian" was completed, and he took a two-day vacation to fly to Hongfeng to meet the screenwriting team of "Let's Cross".
At the Enron Grand Theater, in an unnamed office, Zhang Guoli pushed the door in, suspecting that he had gone to the wrong place.
The room is a large room of about 30 square meters, with a straight aisle less than 1 meter wide on one side and an open studio on the other.
Almost all the empty spaces are surrounded by huge green plants, such as money trees and rubber trees two or three meters high, and there are dozens of pots in the room, and dense pothos hanging from the ceiling of the room, and the vines are about to hang down to the table, blocking the light.
These desks are full of tall flower pots, most of which Zhang Guoli doesn't recognize, but he feels that the room is full of mixed flowers, and there is not even a single figure in the room, and it is all green......
"Excuse me, is anyone there?"
Zhang Guoli suspected that he had walked into the primeval forest, knocked on the door and shouted, couldn't help but take two steps inside, poke his head and look around.
Rumble......
He was holding on to a metal handle that he pushed, and it turned out to be a flatbed trailer with several pots of tall trees on it, and he thought it was a cabinet!
A person slipped out of the partition while sitting on a chair, pushed his glasses, and called out in surprise: "Teacher Zhang Guoli? ”
This woke up the whole room, and more than a dozen people put down their work and walked out, these people were very enthusiastic and introduced themselves, and it turned out that they were all screenwriters of the company.
Guo Lei, the person in charge, walked out and introduced himself, Zhang Guoli felt a little frightened, pointed around and asked, "Are you living in seclusion?" ”
Guo Lei laughed: "This is the habit of our screenwriting department, years of desk creation, not good for the eyes, spine, lungs and stomach, we came up with this method, as soon as we look up, you can see green everywhere, you can also breathe fresh air, and you can also absorb noise, so that the creation is quieter and more inspiring." ”
Zhang Guoli laughed: "I thought you wanted to experience the feeling of the primeval forest!" How about it, the first episode of "Let's Cross", I said, back to prehistoric times, did you write a good script? ”
A voice came from behind him, it was Yang An, he walked over with a smile and said, "Teacher Zhang, let's sit down and talk." ”
The conference room was next door, Guo Lei and the others pushed open a green wall, and a group of people got into it from under the vines.
Zhang Guoli thought that it was a huge tree hole, or a cave or something, and he was engaged in the decoration style of a primitive society, but he didn't expect it to be the most ordinary conference room, without a pot of plants, as if he had suddenly entered the modern society of reinforced concrete from the primeval forest.
Yang An beckoned, Guo Lei brought Zhang Guoli a bound document, the title page was written "Let's cross" five big characters, after opening it, the first page was written about the personnel settings, in the column of the number of guests, side by side with a big "6 + 2", and "5 + 1".
Yang An walked to the whiteboard, took a black marker pen and wrote on it, and asked casually: "Let's set the number of people first, Mr. Zhang, how many guests do you think is better?" ”
Zhang Guoli said: "The more people, the better, the more people, the more complex each person's positioning, and the greater the possibility of showing complexity." ”
Yang An said: "But the more people, the more sub-shots, the more mixed the angle of view, and the more dizzy the audience looks." Do you know that I'm filming a running man, and filming a great challenge, what is the biggest difference between the two shows? I have to always remind myself to remember to steal the show, and I don't care if I shoot a great challenge, because my lens is unique and irreplaceable. And have you ever wondered, if it's ten, or eight, that complicated script for them? Isn't the audience tired of seeing the complex plot? ”
Zhang Guoli laughed: "There is indeed this problem, but will there be too few people for four or five?" Your reality show has never been less than six people. ”
Yang An said: "That's right, so I prefer to make 6+2, each crossing, six fixed guests, two special guests, this is the upper limit I can bear, more than eight people are not considered." Or another way, 5+1, five fixed plus one special invite, so that everyone will have a lot more time to appear, but the complexity of the story will be reduced a lot. ”
Zhang Guoli was embarrassed, and he remembered his previous proposal: "Traveling through the primitive society, the Stone Age, do you need many people?" ”
Yang An wrote the words "Stone Age" on the whiteboard again: "This is another topic, let's talk about it together, that is, what the guests travel back to play!" Mr. Zhang, with all due respect, I don't think it's interesting to travel back to the Stone Age! What do you think audiences love to watch? ”
Zhang Guoli's face was a little unbearable: "Wearing animal skin clothes and experiencing the primitive style, people in the old era walked barefoot, polished stone axes, picked food, hunted, and ate raw meat, and people in the Neolithic era drilled wood to make fire, burned pottery, and fished and barbecued." In addition, there were Stone Age tribal trades, long-distance migrations, tribal wars, slave labor, and so on. ”
After saying this, the conference room was quiet, and all the screenwriters didn't say a word, they all looked at Zhang Guoli with strange expressions.
The most strange thing is Yang An, Zhang Guoli finished speaking, a little anxious: "What I said is what I want to show the audience, such as drilling wood to make fire, the Neolithic Age and the old era, it is just different, one is to take the initiative to make fire, and the other can only cause fire...... There is also spearfishing with homemade spearfishing, Neolithic weapons with barbs, Paleolithic only sharp branches......"
Even talking and gesturing, Zhang Guoli said for a few more minutes, and he felt more and more that something was wrong, and everyone was still silent.
Finally saw Yang An nodded, he listed the highlights that Zhang Guoli just said, seven or eight, and then he drew a line one by one and shot him: "Wear animal skin clothes...... Do you dare to let the male and female guests not even wear safety pants and just record the show? What's so beautiful about animal skin clothes? Is this fur out of Paris Fashion Week this year? Uh-huh, which of you wants to see celebrities wearing animal skins? ”
The screenwriters collectively shook their heads, what's so good about this? Does it make sense?
Second, walk barefoot.
"I know you want to tell you that the ancients didn't even have shoes, but they were born barefoot and had thick calluses on the soles of their feet, so they got used to it. And let us modern people walk barefoot on the mountain road, this is not the highlight, this is the abuse of stars, no outdoor reality show variety show is popular by abusing stars, and fans of celebrities never want to see their idols blistered on the soles of their idols' abused feet, or even skin injuries. ”
Yang An is merciless, draw another one! (To be continued.) )
