Rainbow Cat's "Red Dawn" is in serialization. The work was published on Zongheng Chinese.com, a literary website invested by an online game company that was acquired by Baidu in a new round of asset consolidation. The author of the rainbow cat, whether it is criticized as ultra-leftist or ultra-rightist in nature, has too much reasoning, too little story, too much water, golden thighs and other shortcomings, one thing, "Red Dawn" is a work in a sense, it is the culmination of TG's revolutionary process and Marxist-Leninist revolutionary theory of small talk and propaganda, although whether it is a novel, a revolutionary theory book, a step propaganda product, it has all kinds of flaws. But one of its greatest advantages is that it has a shell of a novel.

After entering the new era, it has a new internal requirement for propaganda, and with the growth of a new generation of young people, this internal requirement is becoming more and more obvious, that is, it requires that all propaganda should meet the tastes of young people. Not to mention that the old generation has not withered, what are the tastes of the new generation of young people? On the surface, of course, it looks diverse, for example, Heisei's otaku requires cuteness, arrogance, and black and straight; Chinese youth demand nonsensical, comedic spirit, spoof, cuteness, etc.; The girls asked for rot blah blah blah blah Sometimes a new element can stick to a large number of people and form an impact by grabbing a major one.

For example, "What Happened to the Rabbit That Year", this small comic has almost become a vane of patriotism. In Shen Zhenghui's view, "Red Dawn" does have all kinds of shortcomings, but it has a very favorable factor, and its script is topical enough. Sometimes, propaganda does not have to be recognized and accepted by others, but it is also a very important purpose to make the other party think and be interested in the topics involved, especially in political propaganda. Sometimes it is not necessary to reach everyone's approval and then take sides, with the development of the times, sometimes self-black, bright powder is really black, and Infernal Affairs can sometimes achieve more results. And Shen Zhenghui feels that the current time is just right, and the economic pressure is huge. The political struggle is fierce, and such topical TV dramas and novels are just enough to detonate a theme. Just as "Time is the Only Criterion for Testing Truth" led to political turmoil, the Southern Speech changed the direction of political affairs. Of course, this is not to say that Shen Zhenghui has such great ambitions and delusions, and thinks that Rainbow Cat's works can achieve such an effect, but at some point, the pressure needs to find an outlet.

The storming of the bus hell was the trigger for the French Revolution, but before that, French society had prepared enough explosives. And so it was done.

Shen Zhenghui is not sure how China and the world will develop, but what he does know is that since he is filming the TV series himself, it is obvious that it is topical enough.

"So what the hell is this?" Not only Wang Anping, but even Shen Zhenghui's parents felt that Shen Zhenghui's choice of such a script was a little too magical.

At least Shen Xingguo said this, "This, I don't think this script is very reliable." I was too embarrassed to show the script to the actors. He complained, "How did you come up with the idea of photographing something like this?" ”

"You don't think this story is good?"

Gee. Shen Xingguo smacked his lips, "It's not bad, I just think this story is a bit strange." Logically speaking, you can't get through guò review, don't talk about me, the actors who read your script know this. What are you trying to do here? ”

"It's on the Internet!" Shen Zhenghui said casually.

Shen Xingguo put down the script and stared at Shen Zhenghui seriously, "You tell me honestly, how did you think of making this script?" He lowered his voice, "Is someone looking for you to ask you to do some kind of propaganda?" Don't get involved in this kind of thing! It's not good for you. ”

Shen Zhenghui deeply admired his father's sensitivity as a party member. "It's not, this kind of theme has actually been flooded in online novels, and there are also movie themes, hasn't Russia made a movie about modern people returning to Suzhou to participate in the Great Patriotic War? I'm just imagining something grander than theirs, and a bigger story in the background. Shen Zhenghui opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Actually, it's good to shoot like this, what I photographed is completely a virtual China, so I directly bypass reality, because it is a completely fictional world, of course, we can play how we want, if we strictly follow the real history, it will not be interesting." You see, in fact, what I want to shoot most is the part of Japan's 'Taisho Restoration', but if there is no change in the external environment, how can the 'Taisho Restoration' be successful? So the whole world line has to be reset, and it is completely fictional, as if it is playing a strategy game. The infinite possibilities of history unfold ......"

Shen Xingguo looked like a monkey and listened to what his son said, and finally pouted and took off his reading glasses, "You lied to me!" He said, "I ask you, don't say anything else, you don't broadcast on TV," and then he sighed, "There must be no TV station to broadcast you, don't you make money from this TV series?" ”

"We have money, not bad money." Shen Zhenghui clapped his hands and said, "In order to celebrate my inclusion on the Forbes list of the world's richest people, I am going to make this movie and play it." ”

Shen Xingguo stared at Shen Zhenghui for a long time with the eyes of a loser, and only after a while did he snort, "We don't care if you spend your own money, but let me remind you, you don't want to play with this kind of thing." The people who ran away in 1990-1 are still not coming back. ”

Look at the joke, can those poor students, political speculators compare with big capitalists like me? The last part of the group of students who became capitalists was not kneeling and licking, and then they also came back. Of course, this kind of thing is difficult to say on the surface. So Shen Zhenghui tried his best to comfort his father, "It's a financial crisis now, and I don't know how many people I can feed when I invest in TV dramas here." ”

"!" Shen Xingguo responded, "Now the domestic TV drama and film industry is not in a financial crisis!" The situation is very good! No one else is uncommon to act in a TV series like you that can't be released. ”

"You're talking about a commercial TV series," Shen Zhenghui pouted, "What I'm looking for now are basically old actors, the kind with acting skills, and they are all busy and have no time?" ”

"That kind of actor has this kind of political sensitivity, so he won't take on a TV series like you!" Shen Xingguo said.

"Didn't you tell them I was a director? I think no matter what, my name can fool people! As he spoke, he urged. Dad, you do something, I've found actors from Japan, Europe and the United States, and the mainland has to keep up, if you really look for it, you can also find the relationship with Guò ATV, isn't this me sending you money? ”

"It's not uncommon for your dad to earn your money." Shen Xingguo pouted. But that's just the old man's anger. In fact, with Shen Zhenghui's name, the vast majority of actors will not refuse, even if they know that the filming may be a one-step ban, but who cares? With Shen Zhenghui in the front, the board can't hit the actor at all. According to this script, there is no hope of releasing it in China, but what about abroad? Maybe it will be hot, even if you take 10,000 steps back, this piece of Zifu Street will be home. But the money is not less profitable, and this can be regarded as selling Shen Zhenghui a favor, which has added a sum to his resume.

Of course, people with more thoughts will wonder, didn't this guy just take the title of propaganda expert, is this actually a stone throwing to ask for directions? This kind of theme is also on.,Is there a change in policy or personnel? Of course, it is also possible that the official is brain-dead. Normally they don't be brain-dead in this way, but maybe they can! Who knows where their lower limit is! So in fact, Shen Xingguo's search for actors is still very smooth.

And actually. As far as acting goes, the story and subject matter aren't that difficult either. This story is still relevant to the real history, but the time is a little out of order. The direction of history in the story has changed, but the characters and details have not. The script of the rainbow cat has been revised to make it as appropriate as possible so that the British people in the novel look like the British and the Japanese people look like the Japanese. Bureaucrats are like bureaucrats, and capitalists are like capitalists. As a country in transition from semi-feudal and semi-colonial to socialism, China also bears strong historical traces in the details. Such an overhead strives for excellence in design and details. There is no difficulty in acting, but rather, because they are standing in the downstream of history, when they look back and see the upstream of history, they understand the spirit of the story better.

After Shen Zhenghui formed the crew, the first thing he did was to organize the actors to read the novel intensively, strengthen their understanding of the story, and then start filming. At the same time, the publicity that Shen Zhenghui is going to shoot a TV series has also been released, this TV series will not be broadcast on TV stations, but will be released on the Internet, the official website provides free downloads, and will be distributed online simultaneously around the world. Try to have one episode a week.

This novel model naturally attracted everyone's attention, and at the same time, more people began to wonder how the cost would be recovered if the TV series was released online. The official website has been established quietly, and the Chinese region mainly relies on station A and station B, but the official website is formally independent and will provide barrage and discussion areas. Many of the staff actually entered the studio through the Guò Micro Film Competition, and at this time they really started their internship careers under Shen Zhenghui.

In addition to the Chinese staff and directors, there is also a director in charge on the Japanese actors' side, and a director in charge on the European and American actors' side. The director in charge of Japan is naturally Miyamoto, and he also likes this kind of bad historical background, so he specially organized a historian advisory group, striving to make the Japanese actors conform to the details and feelings of the 20s when performing. The scene layout is what Shen Zhenghui values the most, but sometimes it is not enough to rely on location bases such as Republic of China Street, and the filmed film has to be synthesized by the computer, which is as much in line with the historical reality in the book "Red Dawn" and the scene of the Republic of China in Shen Zhenghui's mind.

Although it has been deleted, the TV series is basically filmed according to the story of the novel "Red Dawn", and Shen Zhenghui's only headache is how to get out of the guò picture table in "Red Dawn", even if the comparison of the real history and the alternate history is added, there is still a bit of a headache in the end. Later, he simply adopted the "Slam Dunk" mode, adding content after each episode. This leads to the fact that the TV series is very painful when translating, because in order to make it understandable to foreign audiences, each episode of the TV series has to add a voice description at the beginning to explain to them what the background of the story is.

Shen Zhenghui was a little obsessed with the filming process itself after the start of filming the TV series, this feeling is different from shooting other movies, in addition to the tension that runs through the filming process of the TV series, Shen Zhenghui feels that there is a tension of interest that has always been maintained in his body, this feeling, as if when he was reading the novel "Red Dawn", his interest was confirmed little by little, and the novel lit up his mind, there is a unique sense of satisfaction. This kind of satisfaction is even more than the filming of "Magic Apprentice", during the filming of "Magic Apprentice", if it were not for the continuous feedback that the film was loved by fans, Shen Zhenghui himself would not have lasted as long as six films, and in the end he almost continued to shoot with the feeling of practicing and using new techniques. Then came to the sequel, and there was a real way of filming Pandora.

And when filming "Red Dawn", I always felt so full and satisfied. When I saw Chairman Chen Ke's actor, sometimes I directly replaced the other party with the chairman himself in my mind, and my bad taste was slowly satisfied. Those young people one by one also gradually matched the image they played in their thoughts. This made Shen Zhenghui feel very satisfied.

Correspondingly, on the Internet, almost all young netizens are full of expectations for a TV series. The discussion area on the official website has been hot from the beginning, and everyone has discussed what kind of TV series this is, since it is directed by the world's No. 1 (box office) director, it must be extraordinary. Those readers who have already read the novel began to spoil what kind of story this is in the discussion area, which naturally aroused the amazement and surprise of others. (To be continued......)
