Now if the TV series wants to innovate, it has to innovate in terms of content, theme, characters and other aspects, at least "Forensic Qin Ming" gives people a very fresh feeling from the character design.

It's not that there are no crime-solving dramas on the market, there are many criminal investigation bureaus in modern times, and there are many detective crime-solving dramas in ancient times, such as the "Bao Qingtian" series, which has been remade many times.

But whether it is modern or ancient, the unified character of the hero is honest and kind, and there are very clear concepts and rules at the beginning, which brings Xu Jin a bit of the same feeling.

It's too "positive"!

Even if the screenwriter racks his brains in solving the case, the characters are too common and it is difficult to make a way out in the market.

Unless there is a well-known actor bonus, there is very good content, and the service is also online, the plot rhythm is very fast, and it will bring the audience in at once, quickly seize the market, and it will be able to go higher and higher.

If the rhythm of the plot is not too attractive at the beginning, even if the follow-up content is well-made, it will be difficult to turn it around, because such a theme itself does not appeal to the mass market and is niche.

If the niche wants to turn the tables, it has to be eye-catching at the beginning!

Xu Jin asked curiously: "Where is this drama, I'll also take a look, if the plot rhythm at the beginning is tight and the novel characters are added, it is still a bit marketable." ”

Ding Chengwang said: "The script is in the office, I'll go over and show it to you later, I only received this script last week, because his name is very conspicuous, the word forensic doctor attracted me, and the theme is very clear, so I will read this book in advance."

After reading it, I found that except for some cases with some logical flaws, the other plot handling is not bad, and I feel that it still has investment value. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Xu Jin and said suspiciously: "But boss, are you sure you still want to act in a TV series, you have a good momentum in the movie, you should go to the movie!" Maybe you'll be able to get a big production about a movie this year. ”

Xu Jin shook his head: "The market is not as good as you imagined, with my current coffee position, even if the movie I want to take is not the protagonist, it must be an important supporting actor, but with my appearance, it is actually not popular in the film market, and no important supporting actor and protagonist will be as young as me." ”

"At least there is no theme suitable for me in the current electricity industry, so I decided to continue acting in TV series, the main market of TV series is larger, if the series is excellent, the popularity is not worse than that of movies, and it is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

In the end, Xu Jin said: "Even more because I invested by myself, the benefits obtained are also the greatest." ”

These words persuaded the three employees who chose the script that, to put it bluntly, everything was because of interests.

People tend to make profitable things, and so do other people, whether it's a movie or a TV series, as long as you can make money, make a lot of money, then what's the important thing about acting in a movie or a TV series?

When he went to act in a movie, Xu Jin didn't feel that he was superior to other actors, and the seniors in the movie pressed him to the slightest.

TV series also have many outstanding actors, and once an innovation is started, the shock caused may also affect the wind trend of the entire entertainment industry.

Therefore, Xu Jin is very much looking forward to filming a new type of TV series!

After the meeting, Ding Chengwang copied a few copies of the script of "Forensic Qin Ming" and sent them to them, Xu Jin took the script home to read it, and the other two screenwriters read it in the company.

Because Xu Jin clearly expressed his tendency to star in this script if the script could, they all urgently put down what they were doing and got together to discuss the script of "Forensic Qin Ming".

"Forensic Qin Ming" is a suspenseful criminal investigation drama, in which forensic doctor Qin Ming does an autopsy and gets the answers that the deceased told them about the murderer, and starts an investigation story with his assistant and the local criminal police captain to track down various unbelievable cases.

And the beginning of this script starts with a "strange oil explosion case".

Good guys, the opening scene is exciting.

While investigating whether the oil used by the vendors was a qualified standard oil or a well-known gutter oil, the police suddenly found a huge "chicken claw" from the oil, and this chicken paw was looked very much like a human hand by the police, so the captain of the criminal police team called the forensic doctor in the team and asked him to come over for an autopsy.

From the test, it was learned that this was indeed a human hand bone, and according to the investigation, it was very likely that there was murder and cooking corpses!

The vendor selling gutter oil was also called back to the police station, they had extreme reason to suspect that this was a prisoner, the vendor knew which bones were corpses, trembled, and hurriedly shouted that he didn't know at all!

He fished buckets of gutter oil, and he didn't know if it was garbage or meat scrap in it!

The vendor gave the address where he had dug out the gutter oil, and the group went to the sewer, and with the keen sense of smell of the assistant Dabao, they found the right direction, and they also found the pelvic bone that was thrown in the sewer very smoothly.

When they saw this plot, Qin Kewen and the others couldn't help but nod and shake their heads, this plot is written here, if it can be filmed truthfully, it will definitely be fascinating.

Because his storyline is very compact, the arrangement of the first episode has already given a lot of story clues, if there is no accident, the case can be solved in the second episode.

This is a judgment they made based on experience, and it is also speculated based on the rhythm of the early stage of this script.

If the case hasn't been solved in episode 2, it can only be said that the script may have designed the plot a little complicated, or it has been flooded since episode 2.

They couldn't wait to see the storyline of the second episode, and they didn't disappoint them, and sure enough, they solved the case in the second episode, and they made a very innovative summary comment.

From a script, you can get a glimpse of what the quality of a drama will be, and only from the first story you see, "Forensic Qin Ming" undoubtedly maintains a high level of quality.

But there is also a problem.

"Can you pass the trial, what do you think?" Ding Chengwang was the first to ask.

Qin Kewen and Shen Jianyong couldn't help but shake their heads.

Qin Kewen said: "I don't think so, the pictures described in the script are still a little too bloody and not suitable for being broadcast on TV platforms." ”

Shen Jianyong: "I also have this idea, the scale of the mainland is not so large, I am afraid that the shooting will be filmed but it will not be able to be played, and the bamboo basket will be empty!" ”

Ding Chengwang was a little unwilling: "If this script can be filmed, it will definitely cause a wave Well, it is different from the suspense criminal investigation dramas on the market, and it is very innovative."

Whether it is the modus operandi, the story, or the setting of the characters, it is very novel, and if you have the opportunity, I think this drama is still worth a try. ”

Qin Kewen didn't know what he thought, and suddenly said: "Didn't Xu Jin say before that he wanted to build a special short TV series as a platform for training new directors to practice?" ”

Shen Jianyong reacted quickly: "Do you want this drama to be filmed and put on that platform for publicity?" ”

Qin Kewen asked rhetorically: "Other than that, do you have any other good ways?" ”

"The mainland's censorship system is strict, because new dramas have to be broadcast on TV, and the audience of TV is for audiences of all ages, and adults have no problem watching these contents, but if you show it to children, I'm afraid it will have nightmares, so I don't think it's possible for this drama to rush to the stars."

Shen Jianyong said: "But if you don't shoot it, you feel a bit wasteful." ”

Qin Kewen nodded: "Yes, I think this drama is worth trying, and the construction of short dramas is also to make money, Xu Jin said that he will make a profit by monthly subscription, introducing advertising fees and other methods."

This drama was filmed and put on the platform to broadcast as the existence of the town, which is completely okay! ”

To put it bluntly, I just want to shoot it out and drain it.

Ding Chengwang asked suspiciously: "Then this kind of drama should be an online drama, which is only broadcast on the Internet, not on TV platforms." ”

Qin Kewen smiled: "Your description is quite in place, thinking about it like this, it is indeed an online drama." ”

Shen Jianyong said slowly: "There has not been a self-made online drama on the Internet yet, and everyone is filming with the intention of being on the star and broadcasting it on the TV station."

But the number of films broadcast by TV stations every year is limited, and some dramas have waited for two years, but they can't wait for a chance to be broadcast. ”

"The filmed film is not only the way to go to the star, but it is also profitable to broadcast it on the Internet, and now there is no review standard for online dramas, if "Forensic Qin Ming" can be broadcast, it will inevitably drive many small productions with low production costs to prosper."

Qin Kewen agreed: "Not only that, the review standards for online dramas should not be as strict as those for new TV dramas, so I agree." ”

Ding Chengwang said: "Okay, you can continue to look at the follow-up script and decide whether you want to shoot it, if you really decide to shoot it, then we will mention the online drama to Xu Jin, and we have to prepare in advance." ”

On the other side, Xu Jin returned to the villa and was also opening the script to read it.

Not just the first story, the second, the third...... Each of the cases excerpted in the script is incredible, and although it looks bizarre, it is actually full of human tests.

What amazed Xu Jin was the comments after each case, and he thought to himself that if he really wanted to shoot this drama, he would have to ask the director to add this essence in the later stage, and he couldn't delete it.

It took two days to read the script of forensic doctor Qin Ming repeatedly, Xu Jin contacted Qin Kewen and them, and they were in a meeting again.

Xu Jin wanted to shoot, Qin Kewen and they had already expected it, and came up with the statement of "online self-made drama" that they had thought of a long time ago.

"Online self-made dramas...... Xu Jin groaned, "This method is a bit unusual, not very common, and I have never heard of it." ”

"Online dramas represent that the filming funds will be shorter, the shooting time invested can be compressed, and there can be more freedom in the scale of the subject matter, and the promotion will be carried out through the Internet, if it can be promoted well, it will also be an opportunity to get out of the circle."

Xu Jin can already imagine that those courses taught him by systematically learning, if you want to watch the later ones first, you will charge a monthly subscription first, but if you want to exempt from advertising, you will rush to a free advertisement, and the cost of the two is different.

When the monthly users stabilize and have a certain market, they can arrange VIP advertisements that are further strengthened for the monthly users, but there are still most of the advertisements that can be blocked by the monthly members.

In addition to allowing netizens to open members, not only these benefits, but also the fact that you can see the cool ...... For some web dramas, it is perfectly possible to do this.

However, the episodes that will be released once are actually the most unselectable path.

As long as their rhythm is well controlled, there will be many netizens who are willing to rush to a member in order to watch this film and television drama.

Not to mention the money artifact that Xu Jinti didn't even mention: "Advanced on-demand!" ”

This one is the nirvana of online dramas, whether you can absorb a wave of members and make a lot of money is to be on demand in advance.

Xu Jin just thought about it, then nodded and agreed: "Form a team as soon as possible, I hope I can star in this drama to test the waters, if the results are not bad, then we can open the creation of several short videos one after another." ”

Xu Jin is still very optimistic about the market of short dramas, he has acted in many large-scale scripts, and the book has been successfully stared, and with the help of Huayu Satellite TV, it is not very difficult to try.

Xu Jin clapped his hand and said: "Just set this script, I'll find someone to quickly build a video website." ”

When he says and does, Xu Jin has always been so resolute.

He made a phone call to Huayu Satellite TV and asked them if they were familiar with the contact information of some directors, and asked for the price to be set at the right time, and he couldn't afford to hire it if it was too expensive.

At the same time, I also asked them questions about the production of film and television dramas.

For a provincial satellite TV, there are naturally some directors behind it, and it is not difficult to come up with a moderately priced one with directing experience.

Li Ming, the person in charge of Huayu Satellite TV, asked curiously: "Do you want to invest in filming?" ”

Xu Jin said with a smile: "Yes, after a few successes in the investment world, I want to make it bigger more and more, continue to invest, and invest in the scripts that I am interested in." ”

Li Ming said: "If you really make up your mind to go to investment, then you must set up your own team, and it is better to have a few actors or directors who work with you regularly."

The longer they get along with you, the more they will understand what you mean, so there will be fewer disagreements, and the director's expenses will not be too expensive.

If you just come up with a script, and you have to hire a director and an actor, you are no different from a wet nurse, I am afraid that it will waste your time. ”

Xu Jin nodded and exhaled a long breath, "Well, I understand, the studio has just been built, and there are many departments that have not recruited people, so let's talk about it, we still have to recruit people first!" ”

After hanging up the phone with Li Ming, Xu Jin called Ma Jun again.

After five years of struggle in the entertainment industry, Xu Jin has unconsciously accumulated some contacts on his hands, and it is easy to ask someone to help him do things.

That's why he usually has a good attitude towards actors and is helpful, so he has gained a lot of friendships, and when a certain time comes, these people can bring a little help.
