Chapter 506: Cool Drama Appears? (Typo corrected)
Chapter 506
He Chuan shook his head, and a gleam crossed his eyes: "So we have to find a way to get the best of both worlds, and at this time, we can refer to your operation mode on Treasure Island!" ”
Xu Jin said with interest: "Let's hear it." ”
He Chuan said confidently: "It's the same role that brings you popularity, but your personality is very distinct in Treasure Island, where you can be a powerful faction or a top star."
In the mainland, you can't do both, and people's impression of you stays as an actor rather than a top-notch. I analyzed it and felt that the main reason for this in the mainland was that you rarely did publicity.
You are too low-key, not publicistic enough, and you don't make good use of the influence that popular film and television dramas bring you. ”
Xu Jin couldn't help but nodded, what He Chuan said was not unreasonable, so he agreed in his heart, "So what are you going to do?" ”
He Chuan said ambitiously: "When you release "Painted Skin" next year, I plan to start a series of linkage promotions for you!" ”
Xu Jin was really a little surprised, he didn't expect He Chuan to come up with such a solution, if he really did this, it would be to smash all the capital on the movie Painted Skin.
If his performance in the painting skin is not good, then his later investment in publicity will be in vain.
And the most critical point is that he is not a starring role but a supporting role in the painting. Will this make clothes for others? This is also a question that has to be considered.
"Are you sure? I think it's quite risky to smash it on this movie, and I definitely want this movie to be a good movie, and I also think it can set off a movie-watching craze.
But I'm not sure if the role I'm playing will be loved by the audience, and I'm not sure if the audience will love me more than the male lead. ”
Xu Jin is considering another risk, if the role he plays is not as brilliant as the male lead, then his overwhelming publicity will only give people an illusion of overpowering the male lead.
But in fact, there is no work to support it, which will inevitably be a bit too marketing, and it is easy to cause the audience to resent it.
He Chuan took a sip of tea: "I have calculated your current schedule and the works that will be released in the future, only the painted skin is more in line with my publicity requirements, and the time is just right."
Because now you don't have any works to appear in next year's summer, if you postpone the promotion until the summer, you don't have any works to support the heat, and it will be difficult to operate.
After the hype is up, I have to do further research, contact with the brand, it is impossible to complete the process without two or three months of negotiation, I want to take over an order for you before your contract expires, and say that the brand endorsement will also add a resume to my agent career. ”
Xu Jin is a talent, and he is also a loyal and conscientious actor, and his attitude is good, but he can't communicate with him in terms of receiving notices and filming what scenes.
In addition, He Chuan is still quite satisfied with Xu Jin as an artist, there are no bad living habits, and his private life is not chaotic. Don't worry that he will be followed by the paparazzi and take pictures of any intimate and exciting materials.
He Chuan himself can't guarantee that after Xu Jin's contract expires, the artists he will bring. Can there be someone who has reached the same height as Xu Jin? If he can't be Xu Jin, he is the only top artist he has brought with him, and he can't miss this opportunity.
So to take advantage of the fact that Xu Jin's contract period has not yet expired, He Chuan decided to make a big deal, no matter what the result is, at least he can be regarded as planning for Xu Jin once. Fame publicity. If it doesn't work out. The impact is only Xu Jin's popularity, it will be exaggerated and more controversial, but if it succeeds, then not only Xu Jin can go further, but his reputation in the circle can also rise one step further, even if Xu Jin leaves in the future. Tang Ren was also able to explain when he introduced him. He is the agent who single-handedly planned Xu Jin to win the top endorsement. This is an incomparably beautiful resume. He Chuan really didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Xu Jin listened to He Chuan's explanation, understood his thoughts, thought about it for a while, and said, "Okay, just do what you think." ”
Although He Chuan's approach was risky, after understanding the reason why he did this, Xu Jin was willing to let go and let him think as hard as he could, because it was not only about his reputation, but also about He Chuan's own interests. Gaining interest at any time is the best way to bring two people closer together.
Compared with the small drawbacks caused by the failure of the plan, the success of the plan can reap greater prospects.
After He Shuang left, Xu Jin began to read the script.
The three scripts are all big male lead dramas, including two costume dramas and one modern drama. Xu Jin thought about his recent works, which are mostly modern dramas, and there are fewer costume dramas, so he decided to watch costume dramas first.
Tang Ren himself made a fortune by making large-scale dramas, and his family's costume dramas are also doing very well. It can be used as a signboard and exported to foreign countries. The script that the crystal first read was the palace fight conspiracy drama, which was about one. Because of his clever mind, the petty officials stepped into the workplace step by step, and then rose to the top of the workplace to make a fortune, and finally came to the point of being a prime minister above 10,000 people under one person.
Xu Jin read this script for an afternoon as soon as he saw it, and the ingenuity and sophistry in the officialdom made Xu Jin full of praise. , the screenwriter's design is very smart, the routines are exquisite, interlocking, and in the end, it is the same as the question at the beginning.
This script is an excellent script. After Xu Jin finished reading it, he also improvised an analysis of his character.
This writing came in the evening, knowing that his parents urged him to go out to eat quickly.
Xu Jing didn't have work on the second day, so she went to read the other two scripts. After reading all the scripts, he has to do another market research to see what the taste of costume dramas the audience likes recently. A good script does not mean that it is a good film and television drama, take literary films as an example, those literary films that can win awards, is his script not good? The script is very well written, close to the realistic topic, bringing people far-reaching meaning and reflection, but the problem is how many people watch literary films, he has always been a niche carnival type, and does not meet the taste of the public.
Xu Jin looks at this script the same, it's one thing for the script to be good, but he also has to consider how well it will be filmed and how many viewers will choose to watch it.
Because he had watched a costume drama yesterday, today he chose a modern drama, and the theme of this modern drama is also quite interesting, not the theme of the Anti-Japanese War, but the theme of lawyers.
It tells the story of a person who encountered injustice when he was a child, resolutely decided to become a lawyer to seek justice for people, experienced a series of problems in the workplace, and also saw the experience between the litigant and the sued, and finally grew into a caring and excellent lawyer.
This drama also made Xu Jin watch it for a long time, because the theme of lawyers is not common, so he also spent a little more effort to find information on lawyers to see if there were any discrepancies with the script.
However, Tang Ren really deserves to be Tang Ren, and the scripts that can be handed to the first-line stars in the company are obviously all experienced. At least I worked the Internet, and the information I found about the lawyer was not different from what was said in the script. Then you don't have to worry about some of the lawyer's common sense in the script.
After reading the script, Xu Jin recalled the plot that still had an impression in his mind, and also did a character analysis.
He also started to write, and he couldn't stop. When I came back to my senses after writing, I found that I had written thousands of words.
Looking at the analysis he wrote, Xu Jin couldn't help frowning: "This script is a bit too realistic, just like the previous script, the logic is all online, and the strength of the protagonist is not too prominent, although in the end it is still a routine that is invincible to evil, but this routine is too much." ”
Yesterday's costume drama, today's modern drama, the plot arrangement of these two scripts is very good. Like mainstream film and television dramas, there is nothing special about it. If you insist on making a comparison, it is a film and television drama produced by Tang Ren. The logic is relatively strong, they can justify themselves, and then the design is a little more elaborate than other dramas.
Xu Jin shook his head, but the problem was also here. There is no novelty in what the script expresses. , so Xu Jin looked at the last script, which was a costume drama.
The logic of this drama is not strong. The protagonist is like a hanger, with infinite adventures. As soon as you go out, you can't get a martial arts cheats or a baby, and you will make friends with strong martial arts. This aspect of the logical chain can be hammered to death. is very weak, but Xu Jin saw a refreshing feeling from it.
"This script is kind of interesting!" Xu Jin watched it with relish, although it was a bit ridiculous, but at least this drama attracted him more quickly than the other two dramas, and now he only saw 1/3 of the front.
After watching the whole drama again, knowing that the screenwriter had laid the foreshadowing from the beginning, Xu Jin had only one thought in his heart, that is:
Be sure to act!
This drama is so different from the film and television dramas on the market!
The popular costume dramas are more logical, realistic, and it can be said that the style is more depressing and dull.
Even if the role of the male protagonist is very gold-absorbing, the overall plot arrangement is depressing. The two dramas I watched earlier are mainstream themes, and this last costume drama is completely opposite to the mainstream, if the mainstream wants to be depressed, then he is completely relaxed.
The mainstream needs the male protagonist to go through many tribulations. Then he is a lot of small tribulations.,The former often requires a lot of enlightenment.,And the latter is a small turmoil.,But it can be solved quickly and quickly.,It's all the male owner's own hanging.,Don't rely on external forces to help.。 In short, one word: cool!
This kind of drama is considered to be a cool drama, the audience doesn't need to bring a brain to watch, just want to be relaxed and happy, but this kind of drama is not common on the market, this kind of drama is not a comedy, although it has a lot of hilarious plots.
Xu Jin picked up the script and read it from the beginning again, and this time he directly marked a lot of places. The places he marked were all that he thought could be deleted, or replaced with another more exciting plot, not so cheesy.
On the second day after reading this script, Xu Jin called He Chuan and asked to take over the drama "Unparalleled".
He Chuan was a little impressed by this drama, but the source of this impression was not from the script, but from Tang Ren's internal discussion. Tang Ren plans to launch three self-made dramas next year, and Dad is unparalleled in the whole year, and this drama is the least anticipated. It's an attempt at a relatively novel subject. launched this drama to see how the market and the effect are, if the feedback is okay, then Tang Ren will make more efforts in this type of drama in the next year.
Therefore, the significance of this drama to test the market is a little greater than the significance of filming.
He Chuan didn't expect Xu Jin to choose this drama, because this drama was created by a director with low qualifications, and the theme was novel, so he was favored by Tang Ren's senior management, but compared with the other two self-made dramas, the scale is not so large, and the team is not good.
He Chuan said cautiously: "Xu Jin, you must think about it, do you really want to take over this drama?" ”
He told Xu Jinting all the reasons, emphasizing that this drama was just a step to test the waters, and Tang Ren did not focus on this drama.
Xu Jin was silent for a while, "Brother He, then I'm thinking about it." ”
Hanging up, he refocused on the show. This time, he didn't use a systematic detection tool to detect it, because he thought in his heart that this drama would definitely be able to achieve certain results, but when he heard He Chuan say this, he found that Tang Ren didn't attach importance to this drama. Then it is very likely that he will not get the strong support of others, so Xu Jin has to hesitate.
He decisively tested it with a system tool and found a strange phenomenon, the tool turned into a white dot. Drifting into the script, flickering and flickering, occasionally a golden light crossed by, the white light and the golden light seemed to be fighting for something, and finally turned into a calm in a few seconds, and when the white light flashed out, it turned into two words in the air: medium.
Xu Jin's eyes sank slightly, and it turned out to be medium.
With a flash of inspiration in his mind, he came up with two other scripts. I tested the other two scripts again with the system tool, and I simply got the medium word. , not as tangled as the first script, let alone with a flash of gold.
Xu Jin's eyes flickered, he didn't quite understand why the detection tool had undergone such a change, but he had a faint hunch in his heart that told him that the potential of "Unparalleled" was far greater than the other two!
Xu Jin called He Chuan again and asked, "Are there only these three self-made dramas within the company?" ”
He Chuan nodded: "At present, there are only these three films circulating in the company, and I am not sure if there will be one after you join the group and start filming." ”
"Four?"
"My guess is that there should be 4 steps to reach the point of dominating the whole year, and one will be released every quarter."
He Chuan reminded: "But even if there is one more step, you can't take it, because it's too late." ”
Xu Jin has some regrets, if he can, he really wants to see what the script of the 4th part is like.
"After listening to your words, I re-read the script and found that it was still Wushuang, this script is very attractive to me, although his team is weak, but the theme of his script is novel enough, I think it can lead a trend and inject fresh vitality into the film and television theater, but this script I think there are still things that can be improved, Brother He, can you help me contact the director and screenwriter of this drama?"
