Originally, Sun Peng wanted to create a new drama for Lin Lin, which was the adapted "Criminal Minds".

This crime drama, which has been broadcast in the United States for twelve seasons and nearly 300 episodes before the crossing, can be said to be one of Sun Peng's favorite American dramas, so when he decided to create a new work for his cousin, he decisively gave up dramas like the American drama "Super Sense Detective", "Memory Detective" and Japanese dramas "Puzzle", "Continue" and other dramas that are more suitable for personal shows, and insisted on taking "Criminal Minds".

If it weren't for Li Lizhi's persuasion and Lin Lin's changes, maybe what would have appeared now would be a mutated version of "Criminal Minds".

But now......

"If the degree of restoration is at most, it is only fifty percent!"

While watching it and comparing it with the first episode in his memory, Sun Peng sighed secretly.

But he knew it was good.

If Li Lizhi is not a director who has studied and worked in the United States, and is quite familiar with the fast pace and professional style of American dramas, I am afraid that there will not be fifty percent in a row.

And in his opinion, at least the level of filming in this world is okay.

Under the relatively ample budget, the sets, props, costumes, and even the carefully selected actors of the whole episode are okay. What makes Sun Peng even more satisfied is that the filming of this kind of drama is also less restrictive here. For example, you don't have to make up a place name like filming a crime drama on the earth, as if using the name of a certain city is alluding to something; For example, the more bloody and cruel scenes in the film have also been carefully restored, rather than being hidden like on earth.

Overall, Sun Peng can give a passing grade.

Even the small supporting actors he has been worried about, because of the full help of Qian Hong, who has been in the dragon set group for 20 years, has found a lot of good actors with good quality and low prices.

Of course, the final effect is inseparable from Sun Peng's soundtrack.

In order for these three episodes to be a blockbuster, Sun Peng directly copied all the soundtracks of the original version, and Li Lizhi did not disappoint him, using these music to match the overall dark tones to create a shocking world......

"Damn, can a crime drama still be filmed like this?"

Sun Peng's side is quite satisfied, but Zheng Shun, Zheng Jia and Wu Ming are shocked!

As a group of non-professionals, they can't overlap the scripts they have seen and even commented on with the TV series they see now. It can be said that these pictures carefully created by Li Lizhi are completely beyond Zheng Shun's understanding of their own work - not very real, but too awesome!

Before you know it, one episode is over.

Li Lizhi didn't immediately play the second episode of the video, but first turned on the lights in the conference room, and then asked expectantly, "Everyone, how do you feel?" ”

Although it was you who asked, his eyes looked at Sun Peng first.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”

After clapping his hands three times first, Sun Peng immediately made his attitude clear.

"Great! Awesome beyond my expectations! ”

Although he was a little disappointed, Sun Peng still did not hesitate to praise him, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I was very worried before I came, because I was afraid that you would not be able to capture the feeling I wanted...... But now, I'm completely down-to-earth! ”

As soon as these words came out, Lao Zhao and the representatives of the Golden Eagle Video were suddenly full of joy.

Although most of the funds were invested by them, and the crew was also formed by them, Sun Peng has long said that if the filming effect is not good, he will no longer write the script, at most, he will hand over the copyright to them like "The Lonely Gourmet".

But without this guy's script, can this show continue?

Now that they have Sun Peng's approval, they are immediately relieved, at least they can be sure that the first season of "Criminal Minds" can continue. As for whether to wait for the three episodes of the pilot drama to be launched and see the audience's reaction or something...... After watching these three episodes, who else will have this idea?

It doesn't exist!

Seeing everyone's excited looks, Sun Peng smiled and didn't say anything more.

If you have never seen the original version and just watch this version, Sun Peng may give it a good or even excellent score. At least compared to the Korean remake version on the earth, Sun Peng feels that Li Li has done a better job with them, especially when there are no big-name actors to join, he has invested all his money in production, and the effect is quite gratifying.

But even so, Sun Peng still felt that the performance of several leading actors was a little worse.

Qian Hong is the best, the old drama bone really plays what he thinks, and portrays the role of the team boss quite successfully. But perhaps it is a run-in problem, there is still a gap between the original image of the other members and Sun Peng's impression, especially Lin Lin, who plays the genius Rhett, is difficult to satisfy.

But this is also something that can't be helped, this girl's acting skills are at that level.

Fortunately, Sun Peng also understands that this is mainly his preconceived factor, after all, after watching more than 200 episodes of Hodchner and Morgan, it is really difficult for him to accept other people to play these roles at once, just like it was difficult for him to accept the team change at the beginning, this sharp contrast will definitely affect the judgment, not to mention the Rhett who was his mother.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Li Lizhi's gaze turned to Zheng Shun and the others, and asked with a smile: "Fellow crime experts, what do you think?" ”

"This ......"

Including Zheng Jia, the household registration policeman, the consultants of the series looked at each other a few times, and finally Zheng Shun said with a wry smile: "To be honest, this is completely different from our usual work situation, and it is difficult for us to say what opinions we can make...... But even from our point of view, this episode is very exciting and good-looking! ”

Reality is reality, fantasy is fantasy.

Although they are not insiders, Zheng Shun still understands this basic truth. For example, how many policemen can say the various psychological, forensic and other professional terms blurted out by the characters in the play? And those delicate analyses of criminals, how many people in the whole capital can do it?

If you really want to be more serious, there is no such thing as a TV series.

Such a reaction is sufficient.

The so-called professionals in the TV industry don't really care about Zheng Shun's opinions, but they are also very happy to see their approval, Li Lizhi hurriedly smiled: "I would like to thank you again for your help, we will try to make it closer to reality later, and I hope that several consultants can continue to help." ”

Between the words, Li Lizhi also knew that it would definitely be appropriate to continue the production of the first season.

After a few polite words, Zheng Shun and the others naturally agreed.

If at the beginning they were just interested in Sun Peng's script and put forward some of their own opinions, then after seeing the final version of the film, these people were even more interested! A crime drama that makes them look very exciting, can it not be popular after it is launched?

How can it be?!

Everyone expressed their opinions...... Basically, after some admiration, the observation continues.

Sun Peng did not directly carry the first three episodes of the first season of "Criminal Minds", in order to ensure that he could be a hit, in addition to the first episode, the last two episodes he moved the most impressive case, one of which showed the warmth of criminals and cruelty, and the other episode realized their extreme perversion!

So it's no surprise that the last two episodes once again suppressed Zheng Shun and them.

Especially after the content of the third episode was played, Zheng Shun and the others looked at Sun Peng with something wrong. Although he had read the script for a long time, after really watching the well-made images, Zheng Shun was once again like his father, and suspected Sun Peng's psychological problems......

……

"Gentlemen, I think we can talk about the first season!"

Let Zheng Jia wait next door, Sun Peng stretched out his hand to the two representatives of Golden Eagle Video.

"Of course!"

The two of them were suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly shook hands with Sun Peng and smiled.

The two representatives and Lao Zhao as the producer, Sun Peng as the copyright owner and screenwriter, and Li Lizhi as the director, the five of them began to discuss the production of the first season in the conference room.

"If possible, we hope that the first season will air in October!"

After sitting down, Lao Zhao took the lead in speaking: "After the run-in of the three episodes of the pilot drama, I believe that both the director and the leading actors, including our props and artists, are already familiar with it, so the next shooting and production should be much faster!" If Xiaopeng can come up with a new script as soon as possible, there should be no problem in catching up with the end of October. ”

"Yes, yes, that's the best!"

Regarding Lao Zhao's proposal, the two representatives naturally nodded again and again.

The success of the pilot was already expected by them, so it was important to launch the real first season as soon as possible while the audience was interested, so as not to cool their enthusiasm. So they and Lao Zhao, including Li Lizhi and Qian Hong, are all ready, and they are waiting for Sun Peng's script to be cooked.

"If it's a script, no problem!"

Secretly calculating his free time, Sun Peng said in a deep voice: "Actually, I have already started to prepare, and I can come up with at least five episodes of the script next weekend, but ...... I have a few conditions that I need to discuss with you! ”

"Okay, you say!"

As soon as he heard that Sun Peng had already written a five-episode script, Lao Zhao suddenly perked up!

"First, the investment in dramas can't be reduced!"

Raising a finger, Sun Peng put forward the first request: "Although the response to the pilot episode has not yet been received, since you are willing to continue to invest in filming, I understand that you have recognized this thing, so the investment in a single episode must not be reduced, but only increased!" ”

"This ......"

Lao Zhao and the two deputies looked at each other, and the first request made them embarrassed.

It is naturally no problem to invest more in pilot dramas, after all, to attract people, it must be well-made. But when large-scale filming starts later, who can guarantee that the investment will continue at such a high cost?

After all, it's an online drama, and there are no big stars joining!

Ignoring Lao Zhao's entanglement, Sun Peng continued to raise his second finger: "Second, you should know that I have to write and do my own animation now, so I don't have time to intensively work on the script." So I can only guarantee the first version, at least the cases and analysis of each episode, but the specific optimization will depend on you. So my suggestion is to ask Director Li to find a few professional screenwriters and form a small team to polish every script I provide! ”

"No problem, this one must be fine!"

This time, without waiting for Lao Zhao's answer, Li Lizhi agreed first. That's how he and Sun Peng did it last time, and as a director, Li Lizhi also hopes to have more room to play, otherwise how interesting is it to shoot directly according to Sun Peng's script?

In fact, Sun Peng also wanted to directly provide the finished version of the script, but after filming these three episodes, he understood that it was not realistic to directly use the original version. Americans are Americans, and Chinese people are Chinese, not only because of their different language and work habits, but also because of various common life scenarios.

For example, most cases in the United States occur in single-family houses, so in Huaxia it is a villa, and then all of them can be done like this?

So it is only natural to ask someone to polish the script.

This request is not complicated, Lao Zhao and the two representatives quickly nodded, so Sun Peng raised a third finger: "The third is even simpler, I invited professional police, forensic doctors and forensic officers in the first three episodes, and they will ensure the professionalism of the content." So in each subsequent episode, I hope you ask professionals to check it, after all, I don't want to be ridiculed for the unprofessionalism of our Huaxia police system when this drama is exported abroad in the future......"
