The reason why He Yun chose Zhou Jie as the leading actor of this TV series is mainly to see if he can replicate the high ratings of "Youth Bao Qingtian" in the later generations.

And after this contact, he became even more convinced of his own views.

It turned out that he found that Zhou Jie's tone of voice was a little green, and compared with later generations, he was not so steady, and even had a momentum.

Such an image is actually in line with the image of the young Bao Zheng in He Yun's mind.

After all, in his imagination, Bao Zheng in the play is a fledgling teenager, he is not as stable as he was in middle age, whether it is for things or people, he is full of enthusiasm, and there is a sense of momentum, or impulse.

Moreover, He Yun chose Zhou Jie as the actor of the young Bao Zheng, in addition to the very similar personality, there is actually another very important reason.

That is Zhou Jieken's "sacrifice".

You must know that Bao Zheng in this drama is dragging a "black charcoal" image.

This is a big destruction of the image of young actors.

And at this time, cream is popular, and generally young actors will not take on such roles.

What's more, the show itself also has a lot of risks.

Not to mention that the producer is a private enterprise, that is, the "detailed explanation" of this drama has completely deviated from the original work, and whether such an adaptation will be successful must also be marked with a big question mark.

There is another point, that is, there is a Taiwanese version of Bao Zhengzhuyu in front, once this "Young Bao Qingtian" is released, will it cause huge controversy?

This is really an unknown.

.......

Zhou Jie..... What do you think? Why did you agree to Comrade He Yun so quickly! ”

"Teacher Zhou, I know you're doing it for my good, but I've already decided! I want to take a gamble! Zhou Jie showed a hint of firmness in his eyes, and said to Zhou Junbo.

In fact, the reason why Zhou Jie decided to agree to He Yun was that in addition to believing in He Yun's ability and fame, the most important thing was that he didn't want to go on like this.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't like drama, nor does he dislike the small size of the drama troupe, but he feels that he needs to make a certain breakthrough.

Before, he starred in a movie and a TV series, but these two dramas did not set off a single wave, which made him feel a heavy sense of loss.

So, this time he didn't want to miss this great opportunity.

After all, there is no such shop after this village, so you have to take good care of it.

Regarding Zhou Jie's thoughts, Zhou Junbo has actually seen it a long time ago, but he has been holding it in his heart and not saying it, now it's okay, Zhou Jie has made up his mind, as a "teacher", he can only sigh secretly and didn't continue.

As for these, He Yun, who was returning to the courtyard at this moment, naturally didn't know.

At this time, he was in front of the computer in the study, typing words.

He plans to spend a week writing down his recent trip to the "mountain city" and writing a "travelogue" called "Yesterday and Tomorrow in the mountain city."

Speaking of which, he hadn't written such literature for a long time.

Previously, he was either busy writing science fiction or writing scripts, and rarely wrote such prose "travelogues".

This time, he wanted to record this "trip to the mountain city", and he would choose to submit the manuscript to "People's Literature".

In recent years, he has not submitted articles to mainstream magazines, and most of his energy has been put on science fiction and script creation, which has given him a layer of strangeness to these mainstream magazines to a certain extent.

It was an opportunity for him to reconnect more closely with these mainstream magazines.

...........

The next day, the sky was fine.

He Yun answered a phone call and went out.

Originally, he planned to create at home all the time, after all, there were no classes at school these days.

But he didn't expect that he received a call from CCTV early in the morning, asking him to attend the script discussion of the animation "Journey to the West".

It turned out that not long ago, the script of the animation "Journey to the West" had already created the first twenty episodes, and CCTV decided to convene a meeting with everyone.

The purpose is naturally to negotiate the script for the first twenty episodes.

This is a very tedious and complicated project, in addition to the screenwriters, there are also members of other groups, adding up to forty or fifty people.

Therefore, CCTV specially vacated a large conference room for everyone to sit down.

During the meeting, everyone had a script in hand.

As a screenwriter, He Yun naturally has a share, and even a few episodes of this, he participated in the writing.

Anyway, as far as the script itself is concerned, there is no problem, at least after he reads it, he can't find any obvious loopholes, and even some highlights.

is a deliberate imitation of the 86 version of Journey to the West.

Of course, these traces are not very prominent, and there are still many places where new adaptations have been made on the basis of the original work.

Not only that, but because some places are animations and not real people, there are some plots that do not even appear in the 86 version of Journey to the West.

Most of these plots are parts that require relatively high special effects technology.

To put it more bluntly, in the past, some plots in the original book were omitted and not filmed, but now there is this technology, and this script is involved.

"Do you all have any thoughts or opinions? You can be bold and bring it up! At this time, a leader sitting on the main seat glanced at everyone and couldn't help but say.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, but they didn't speak.

At this time, the leader looked at He Yun: "Comrade He Yun, do you have anything to say?" ”

"..... I? I'll just say a little bit! There is nothing wrong with the script, but there is a problem outside the script, whether this cartoon dubbing can invite some heavyweight voice actors! I think it adds a bit of color to the cartoon. ”

"Dubbing?"

He Yun's words made everyone fall silent for a moment.

Indeed, dubbing is very important for a cartoon, whether it was "The Legend of the Seven Heroes of the Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit" or "The Legend of the White Snake", although someone was also invited to dub it, but to be honest, He Yun was not satisfied.

Why! It's also very simple!

Please!

Please don't come!

Indeed, such heavyweight voice actors are not something you can invite if you want to, you have to be a big unit like CCTV to invite them.

"Comrade He Yun's proposal is very good, I think we must pay attention to it! In this way, Director Liu, you are responsible for contacting the dubbing teacher! ”

"Okay!"

"Do other comrades have any good proposals?" The leader nodded to the man on the left, and then couldn't help but say to everyone again.

"I have an idea! Let's shoot a sample episode first and see the results! When it comes to computer special effects technology, I think it's better to be on the safe side. ”

"I also think that we should be cautious with such a large investment in this cartoon."

"Yes, yes, yes......"

Soon, one of the people's proposal drew a nod of approval from everyone.

Regarding everyone's reaction, He Yun couldn't help but nodded.

Indeed, with such a big investment, it's time to make a trial episode to see the results.

"Hmm...... This is also a good proposal, do you have any other opinions? ”

At this point, the leader raised his voice again.

Maybe it was because He Yun got off to a good start, and the others spoke their minds one after another.

..........

More than an hour passed.

At this moment, a person suddenly walked in at the door.

The person who came was Wang Ruoyi.

He smiled at everyone, and quickly apologized and said, "Sorry, it's late!" I'm really sorry. ”

"It's okay! Comrade Wang Ruoyi, you have come at the right time, we have already expressed our opinions, after you read the script, tell us your thoughts. ”

At this time, the leader who was sitting on the throne spoke again.

When Wang Ruoyan heard this, she quickly took the script manuscript handed over by He Yun and read it.

After reading a few pages, he suddenly frowned and said, "Why don't you have a preliminary character design image in this script?" ”

"I haven't had time to draw yet." He Yun reminded him in a low voice.

"Oh.... That's right! Wang Ruoyao sighed and didn't say anything more.

But the leader seemed to see that Wang Ruoyi still had something to say, so he immediately said to Wang Ruoyi: "Comrade Wang Ruoyao, we are going to try to make an episode to see the results, what do you think?" ”

"Okay! I think so! No problem. ”

After Wang Ruoyi replied, he nodded immediately.

........

For the rest of the day, we continued to discuss.

And He Yun asked Wang Ruoyan in a private whisper, "Why did you come here so late this time?"

"It's not a sample film yet! Our animated short film "Machines and Humans" just meets the criteria for this exhibition, so I have to send it. ”

"Oh.......! Which exhibition platform do you give? ”

"It's done inside CCTV."

"Uh......!"

When He Yun heard this, he couldn't help but cry and laugh.

To be honest, at this time, he really didn't know what specific awards there were in the domestic animation industry.

I am also familiar with the "Golden Dragon Award" and "Monkey Award".

But at this time, neither of these awards was set.

However, many film awards have the award of "art film".

CCTV is also set up with such an award.

To put it bluntly, this is a "miscellaneous" animation award, not so formal.

But that's fine, anyway, he didn't expect to win awards like the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award for the first time.

After all, even cartoons with excellent reputations such as "The Legend of the Seven Heroes of the Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit" and "The Legend of the White Snake" were not shortlisted.

Of course, the reason why these two cartoons were not shortlisted is actually because of the duration, after all, it is too long and does not meet the award criteria of these two awards at all.

...........

Quadrangle.

After He Yun drove Wang Ruoyan back, he returned here.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw his mother walking around the yard with the child in her arms, and He Xiaolian was playing with the child on the side.

He Yun glanced at the two of them and said, "Mom! I went to the study and called me during dinner. ”

So saying, he turned and went into the study.

..........

A few days later.

People's Literature Magazine.

"Old Pan! What do you see? So fascinating! ”

"Didn't see anything! It's just a cover letter! Lao Liu! Do you know who the author of this submission is? Pan Dongyu glanced at his colleague next door, and then said mysteriously.

"Who?"

"Man Jianghong! Know it! ”

"Who? , full of Jianghong! You mean He Yun! I know him! ”

Liu Yao smiled, but picked up the big porcelain jar cup on the table and took a sip of strong tea, and immediately said: "This is an old friend of our magazine, but in recent years, he may have been busy with other things, and he didn't submit a single manuscript to us, but I didn't expect to submit a manuscript like us today!" I'll have to see what kind of work he wrote this time. ”

After speaking, he walked directly to Pan Dongyu's side, picked up the manuscript on the table and read it.

After a moment, he smiled.

"This He Yun deserves to be He Yun! The quality of the work is still so high! Nice travelogue! Liu Yao smiled and admired.

"Yes! Such a high-quality manuscript is indeed not something that ordinary writers can write! Pan Dongyu couldn't help but sigh.

He was not in the "People's Literature" magazine before, but he had heard of He Yun's name and even read a lot of his works.

Now that he sees He Yun's new work again, he feels that his eyes suddenly light up.

There's a refreshing feeling!

In his impression, He Yun seems to be an all-round writer, who has created works on any subject.

In this "travelogue", I can't help but describe the whole style of the mountain city, and also describe a special group of people - the mountain city "Bangbang".

Although I didn't feel the hardships of the "bangbang" life from the travelogue, I could feel that the industry was in decline.

"What are you two talking about?" At this moment, a figure walked over.

"Editor-in-chief!"

"Editor-in-chief!"

The two immediately shouted.

At this time, Pan Dongyu immediately handed over the things in his hand to the editor-in-chief Cheng in front of him.

"...... this?"

"Editor-in-chief, this is a travelogue essay by Comrade He Yun, we were just discussing this!" Liu Yao said immediately.

"Oh...... Let me see! When Editor-in-Chief Cheng heard that it was He Yun's manuscript, he was immediately interested.

He and Liu Baiyu, the editor-in-chief, are now the editors-in-chief of the magazine, and they have heard him mention this young writer before, but for some other reasons, he has never met He Yun.

"Huh........? This essay is very good! After reading the manuscript in his hand, Editor-in-Chief Cheng also praised again and again.

"Lao Cheng! You're ...... What to see? Then another man came up and said.

The person who came was Liu Baiyu, another editor-in-chief of the magazine.

"I'm looking at He Yun's new work! Look! Editor-in-chief Cheng said, and handed the manuscript in his hand to Liu Baiyu.

Liu Baiyu didn't take it immediately, but said to Editor-in-Chief Cheng: "Let's go to the office and talk!" ”

So saying, he turned and left.

When Editor-in-Chief Cheng saw this, he was confused.

However, he left with the manuscript anyway.

After a while, the editor-in-chief's office.

After the two sat down, he handed the manuscript to Liu Baiyu.

Liu Baiyu took a serious look at it.

More than ten minutes later, Liu Baiyu suddenly frowned.

When Editor-in-Chief Cheng saw him like this, he couldn't help asking, "Lao Liu, what's wrong?" ”
