Chapter 27: Remedy: (2) Market forces
Tang Qingyou really couldn't cry or laugh, and the focus of the media and fans did not fall on the premiere of the first original play at Qiao Drama Center, but was all attracted by the news of Wang Shu and Lin Hao's marriage.
It's a time to look at faces.
In the next few months, Wang Shulinzhen took up a piece of entertainment news almost every week. The pursuit of the media and the attention of the public have made the combination of Wang Shulin Zhen "the most matching love".
As a result, the musical "To the Girl on My Bicycle" was obviously a hard-working and well-planned project, but in the end, it rubbed off the residual heat of Wang Lin's century wedding, barely completed the residency performance, completed the tour, and finally settled the bill.
Jiang Rui was quite happy: "There is no loss, that is earned." ”
Tang Qingyou: "? After all, as an operating organization, the effort in the operation of the project is a large amount of expenditure from the perspective of manpower and material resources, and from the perspective of asset optimization, a non-profitable project will occupy the existing manpower and material resources, and it will cause other high-quality projects to slow down or even stop, which is a double loss.
However, Jiang Rui grew up optimistic: "Without losing money, I earned popularity, brand recognition and project experience." Isn't it good for Qiao Drama Center and all of you to have a resume? ”
What Jiang Rui said was not unreasonable, Tang Qingyou listened, and his heart was much more relaxed. But sometimes thinking about it from a different angle, she can't help but wonder if Jiang Rui is comforting herself, just as she encouraged Gounod? She felt that her top priority should be to fight the turnaround battle beautifully in the coming days.
In fact, since the musical began to go on tour, Tang Qingyou handed over the team to Zou Jianfeng, Ni Huaner and the tour manager, and then took back his personal energy and began to explore the next step of the "playwright plan" and the operation space of original children's plays.
Grasp with both hands, both hands should be hard.
Grasping and grabbing, both ends are exhausted.
Ni Huaner reminded Tang Qingyou in one sentence, she said: "It would be nice if the two projects could be combined, learn from each other's strengths, and save manpower and material resources." After listening to this, Tang Qingyou had an idea in his mind - let the playwright plan to start a children's play, I don't know how those student-oriented young dramatists will feel?
Tang Qingyou has never said that she has the ability to act, but she will do it when she thinks of it, and she negotiated with the signed drama clubs planned by the playwright one by one, most of which were ambiguous replies. After all, these young theater talents are full of dreams and desire to express themselves, in order to take the stage to play their favorite roles. Instead of wearing a hood and wearing floral clothes to jump and jump on the stage to "tease children". Almost all of them believe that the current average level of domestic children's dramas is really sad to watch.
Tang Qingyou has another opinion: At this stage, the domestic children's industry is too coaxing children as children. Nowadays, children are exposed to so much high-tech information, and adults should learn how to communicate with children in turn. Then, the innovative children's repertoire that is in line with the characteristics of this era should be just needed.
"What would you think if you were asked to make a new fairy tale and target it to children rather than young children?"
When everyone heard this, they basically agreed, and said that they might as well give it a try.
When Tang Qingyou summoned the current backbones of the most powerful Pingsheng Drama Club to a meeting, the younger brothers and sisters immediately proposed a play: "Daughter of the Sea", saying that they could rearrange this play or even plan a sequel.
Although Tang Qingyou expressed doubts about whether the "Daughter of the Sea" she had participated in had enough fairy tale feeling, and still had doubts about whether the daughter of the new editor of the sea was suitable for the children's group, in front of the market data, she had to marvel that the children's ability to accept it should not be underestimated.
The rehearsal of "Daughter of the Sea" is a very pleasant thing, when the backbone members of the Pingsheng Drama Club turned to the historical materials, they also invited Tang Qingyou to play the role, Tang Qingyou no longer accepted the invitation to the role of the human princess out of consideration of his age, but offered to try the unpleasant role of the octopus witch, and this negative role became three-dimensional under Tang Qingyou's subversive interpretation. - Tang Qingyou couldn't help but change the text again, adding considerations for "why a witch became a witch, maybe she has a hurt past", stripping this character from the traditional face-to-face role, shaping it more three-dimensionally, and also making the viewers have a direct sigh: "The hateful must have pity!" ”
During the audition, the rehearsal version of "The Daughter of the Sea" tried to open a part of the ticket to be launched to the middle school student group, and the response was very enthusiastic, and it became a sweet spot overnight, and the members of the Pingsheng Drama Club all smiled crookedly: In everyone's traditional sales thinking, they think that middle school students will only care about one thing, that is, the college entrance examination. Ignoring the six years of middle school, especially the three years of high school, no matter how busy you are, you need to adjust. There are too few literary and artistic products at this age, which leads to a gap in the market, and the rearrangement of "The Daughter of the Sea" can be said to have inadvertently filled this gap. Tang Qingyou can also be regarded as experiencing the "power of the market".
Even, because of the market's demand, "Daughter of the Sea 2" began the creative process.
unintentionally inserted willows and willows, obviously fried cold rice, but inexplicably fried a hit.
Chatting with Minglan, who was studying in Europe, Minglan sighed even more: "I found out that in front of the market, there is a person who is a natural winner, and that is a young man." Whether it is survival of the fittest or generational change, no matter how much there is change, the whole world will be young in the end. ”
Tang Qingyou asked, "What did you provoke so much?" ”
Minglan sighed: "This doctor is not easy to read!" I am being killed by all kinds of juniors and all kinds of junior brothers and sisters every day, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to successfully complete this study, and I can't keep up with the rhythm, and the project can't be completed, and I'm afraid that it will be delayed in the end. ”
"So exaggerated?" Tang Qingyou couldn't believe it, "You're studying off-time, you can't read like this, how scary is the intensity?" ”
"I'm not exaggerating at all." Minglan said, "Do you know how many seniors in my profession who have not been able to finish their studies so far? I'm worried, don't look back, my child has graduated from college, and I'm still studying for a PhD. ”
Minglan didn't mean to joke at all, and Tang Qingyou was also anxious about her: "Then what should I do?" Is it too late to change majors or schools? ”
"Isn't there a saying that is particularly in place now, time is not difficult, as long as you are willing to give up! However, as difficult as it is, there is as much temptation as possible. Minglan sighed again, "It's not that it can't be changed, it's that as a standard modern urbanite, my desire is hard to fill, I can't stop the charm of this major and this mentor, and I can't resist the temptation of a bright future in the future!" ”
"Then, I can only silently, across thousands of mountains and rivers, cheering for you!" Tang Qingyou said with a smile.
"Hmm." While accepting the encouragement, Minglan thought about the latest news and shared it with the junior, "By the way, do you know a conductor master, called ...... Call...... Suddenly stuck, I can't remember what his name is, I heard that he has toured with us before, the performance venue is the Nanshan Grand Theater, our family Xiao Zhang took his master class for a period of time, quite recognized, the master said that he knew an artist of the Grand Theater, and made an appointment to go back to China to see the performance, and encouraged Xiao Zhang to continue to work hard. I don't know how I thought of you. ”
Tang Qingyou said with a smile: "When I was in the Grand Theater, I was just an ordinary behind-the-scenes staff, how could I be praised so highly by the master." Sister Lan, you're really going to make me happy. ”
"Okay, next time I have to ask the master, what is the level of the artists in the Grand Theater, is your level higher than that of Mr. Tang?"
Tang Qingyou and Minglan's current conversations are often carried out in mutual praise, which is a kind of encouragement from tacit understanding. They all need supporters so that they can face difficulties with a smile and have some breathing space on the way to pursue their dreams.
Tang Qingyou withstood the weight of the Qiao Drama Center, although there was no great talent at the beginning, after all, as Jiang Rui said, there were big moves at the beginning, and in the field of performing arts, there were actual heavyweight cases, which was equivalent to strength.
Today's Tang Qingyou needs an opportunity for her to continue to upgrade and fight monsters, and to improve Qi Ao's name and professional status again.
She thought that she would meet a stranger like Jiang Rui and bring a new opportunity, so she preset a possible time node for this slim new opportunity in her heart: a few years later.
Tang Qingyou didn't expect that a new volume upgrade opportunity would come so quickly, and it would come from the people around him.
The old partner Ying Gongzi extended an olive branch to Tang Qingyou again. This time, she came with apologies.
Because of the thunder and rain of the musical "To the Girl on My Bicycle" project, Tang Qingyou was tired of running for a long time, and the shadow boy was very unhappy, so he kept thinking about how to cooperate with Tang Qingyou again. After thinking about it, there was no other suitable project, so she pushed forward the stage play plan of "Fanke", the representative work she had always said to the outside world that she "cherished herself".
The shadow boy silently completed the script creation before mentioning this project to Tang Qingyou. In her heart, since "Fanke" is her masterpiece, she will not take it out easily. Once it is taken out, it must be the most reliable adaptation and production, so as not to disappoint her fans, and it must also cooperate with the most reliable person - and Tang Qingyou is the most reliable person in her mind.
Ying Gongzi said his plan for the stage play "Fanke": "I plan to make a drama, add some music elements appropriately, Qingyou, this is my most important work, can you help me complete the most important project in my life so far?" ”
Tang Qingyou gladly accepted this task.
