Chapter 77: Repeating the Old Trick

Wireless secretly instructed many artists to point the finger at Zheng Shaoqiu, but in fact, they wanted to discredit the filming of "Chu Liuxiang", and some people on Li's side couldn't sit still, and began to make suggestions to Qiu Degen, hoping that he would reconsider "Chu Liuxiang" as ATV's opening drama.

Because of this incident, Xu Xiaoming was specially called to the office by Qiu Degen for questioning.

"Because of those reports in the media during this time, many people came to me and said that "Chu Liuxiang" should be removed and replaced with another drama, you are the manager of Qianli's TV production department, and you are the most vocal on this issue, so I want to hear your opinion on this matter."

Qiu Degen held a teacup in his hand, and his tone seemed a little understated and casual.

However, Xu Xiaoming didn't dare to be careless, he first typed a draft, and then spoke his thoughts very cautiously.

"I've been thinking about this matter all this time, under normal circumstances, the easiest way for TV stations to deal with this kind of thing is to change the drama directly, and this time "Chu Liuxiang" is not a drama that we invested in filming, and there is no loss for us to withdraw it, at most, we will be blamed for our reputation, but we can also have a very good reason to explain, there is a problem with the actors on your side, which has attracted such a big social criticism, and it is normal for us not to use your play."

Qiu Degen paused as he was about to bring the teacup to his mouth, and there was a slight surprise in his eyes.

"According to what you mean, you also agree to replace this play?"

"Uncle Gen, don't worry, what I said just now is the general situation, but this time the situation is slightly different, mainly because Lin Xi's reaction is too calm, I think there may be two reasons, on the one hand, because Uncle Gen has an agreement with him, so that he has something to rely on; On the other hand, I think when he asked Zheng Shaoqiu to be the leading actor in this play, he must have thought that something like this would happen in the future, and there should be a way to deal with it, otherwise he would not have made such a decision. ”

Qiu Degen put down the teacup in his hand expressionlessly, Xu Xiaoming didn't need Xu Xiaoming to say that he had already thought of these things, and he didn't just want to hear these things when he came to Xu Xiaoming this time.

As soon as he saw Qiu Degen's appearance, Xu Xiaoming knew that he had to show an attitude today, otherwise it would not be easy to pass this hurdle.

"Personally, I actually support "Chu Liuxiang", because I don't know anything else, but this drama has been in charge of following up on my side since the filming, and whether it is the story design or filming techniques of this drama, I think Lin Xi deserves the praise of the word 'genius'. The last time Cheng Xiaodong, the martial arts instructor of this play, told me that if he didn't know in advance that this was his first time as a director, you would even think that he was already a veteran who had been immersed in this industry for more than ten years, and he didn't know much about filming, including some things in the crew, but he knew very well what he wanted, and it felt like he had a ready-made picture in his head, and others just needed to do what he thought. ”

"Now the whole drama is almost finished, according to Cheng Xiaodong, there are almost no scenes that are really wasted, and the post-editing only needs to be rearranged according to the sequence number of the shots to be directly taken out and broadcast, except for Lin Xi, I really don't know which director in the circle has such a ability, at least not Li!"

Xu Xiaoming "strongly supports" Lin Xi like this, in fact, he also has the idea of gambling once.

Seeing that Qiu Degen was not displeased after hearing this, and even showed a little interest, Xu Xiaoming knew that he was betting right.

"I have never doubted Lin Xi's filming ability, but this trouble doesn't seem to have much to do with whether he is filming well or not, right?"

"Uncle Gen, it's wrong for you to think so, I think the two are not only related, but also have a lot to do with each other! I can even say that all the actions Lin Xi made before the broadcast of this drama were all false, and it was the drama itself that could make him turn the tables. ”

Xu Xiaoming's rebuttal did not make Qiu Degen angry, but made his eyes brighter and brighter.

"Tell me your reasons!"

"I've been paying attention to the media's reaction to this incident for a while, and then I found a very strange thing, the most ferocious media that reported this incident are basically very close to wireless on weekdays, and then the remaining media are purely following the trend, but a few big newspapers, this time there is no relevant news...... Obviously, wireless is the leader behind this incident, and the spearhead is directly aimed at the establishment of ATV, and they do this to give us a disadvantage, but the reaction of the three major newspapers is a bit funny. ”

"Oriental Daily" is still serializing Lin Xi's novels, and it can still be explained if these news are not published, "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Daily", one family seems to have had some holidays with Lin Xi before, and the other directly has no intersection with Lin Xi, if they didn't see something, they would definitely not be so unresponsive."

Qiu Degen moved his body to the back of the sofa, changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and looked at Xu Xiaoming with interest: "Do you think these newspapers have already seen through Lin Xi's arrangement?" ”

"To be precise, it's a set that Lin Xi gave to the media!" Xu Xiaoming was also a little excited when he said this, because the words just now and Qiu Degen's attitude at this time showed that his status in Qiu Degen's heart was different from before.

"In the past few days, I have been thinking about what kind of way Lin Xi will use to deal with this crisis, until I accidentally saw an old newspaper last year, when Lin Xi was just coming to prominence, because he co-wrote "The Peerless Double Pride" with his father, everyone held a lot of controversy about whether he was the real author of that novel, and it happened that he cooperated with Commercial TV to make a radio drama, so the media was overwhelmingly discussing this matter, and most opinions were not optimistic about his attempt."

"Although before the start of the radio drama, these negative remarks should have brought a lot of trouble to Lin Xi, but if you look at this matter from an after-eye perspective, you will find that Lin Xi just took advantage of the media's various negative reports on this radio drama, and successfully made many people who would not know about this drama know the relevant news, and these people basically turned into listeners of the radio drama in the back, and there was such a lively scene in the media, but in fact, they were helping Lin Xi advertise for free."

Xu Xiaoming said this in one breath, paused slightly, and finally concluded: "I think Lin Xi asked Zheng Shaoqiu to be the starring role from the beginning because of the idea of repeating the old tricks, and now it seems that although several mainstream newspapers have not been fooled again, other newspapers and magazines still jump into the trap he originally designed!" ”

"So wireless has helped us this time?" When Qiu Degen thought of Shao Yifu's expression when he found out the truth of the matter afterwards, he couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.

Xu Xiaoming smiled bitterly, he knew that there were people who understood on the wireless side, and someone should soon realize this problem, but they took the initiative to provoke it, even if they wanted to stop it now, Lin Xi's side might not be willing to agree!
