003 I'm tired from work, let's have a cup of milk tea
Zheng Xu has already eaten the story mode of the whole drama, and the original drama can be a small fire, firstly, it fits the current hot spots and captures the atmosphere brought about by tomb robbery novels, and secondly, it is more realistic and real!
Finally, the main story line is clear, and there is no brain-dead plot.
These three elements seem simple, but it is not easy to achieve.
To shoot a drama, the first thing is the screenwriter and the script, and when the script is in the hands of the director, can the director restore the script and shoot the story completely according to the script?
Some dramas, the script is the script, and the finished film is made, if you don't read the script, you don't know what the relationship between the two is!
In addition, there are investors, what are people investing for? A large part of it is to take the role, or to stuff the actors, some directors can withstand this thing, and some will obey.
And actors, acting skills are really important, it's not that the actor wants to play how well, the requirements are too strict, as long as it fits, so that the audience doesn't look like it's playing, just get by!
And such a simple standard, there are still many actors who can't meet it, such as the popular drama "The Pretender" a few years later, in which Cheng Jinyun played the official match of Mingtai.
The whole play is expressionless, or pouting and rolling her eyes, I don't know if she offended the camera, her face is full of acne, how many viewers who have watched this drama can accept her?
Although the crew had an explanation in the later stage, the actor was injured and performed with an injury. But is that a reason?
The acting skills of other actors are all online, and this one is lagging behind in his acting skills, mixed with Wang Manchun and Yu Manli, two brilliant beauties, which leaves a deep impression on people.
And Zheng Xu, who understands these shortcomings, of course doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, he will not reproduce them all, but add part of the magic change.
In the drama "Tomb Road", the whole drama occupies too much space in the battle, but there are relatively few portrayals of tomb robbery.
Although it is a drama with the theme of tomb robbery, watching the whole drama just makes people feel not very enjoyable.
And Zheng Xu's biggest change is this part, which aggravates the roles of pangolins, Yu Lu, Yang Xiu and others, and increases the role of going to the tomb.
In the original play, the actor who played the heroine Yang Xiu in the original drama looks very earthy, which is quite suitable in the context of being an ordinary rural girl in the first few episodes.
But since following Song Ruoxu, he has money, and he is still so earthy, which seems to be a bit disobedient.
There are reasons for costumes and makeup, but the biggest reason is the actors themselves.
To put it bluntly, he is not beautiful enough and has no temperament.
Zheng Xu is going to build Yang Xiu in the direction of Shirley Yang, how can such a local girl do?
And thinking of being amazing, Zheng Xu thought of an actor who was very cost-effective during this time period, that is, Wang Ou, who is still tepid.
Although it has been several years since his debut, it seems that he has also collaborated with Wu Qilong in the series of movies "Darts in the World Prequel" in the past two years, but how to say it, it has been tepid.
In terms of image, her skin is slightly dark, and she doesn't look distinctive, and the role she plays is heroic and sassy in the setting, and she wants to lean on the eccentric when she plays it, in fact, Zheng Xu feels that her appearance is not suitable for this direction at all.
Otherwise, he would not have relied on the role of Wang Manchun in "The Pretender" a few years later to become popular.
Now in Yanguo, such as the popular Yang Mi, Brother Hu, and other young actors, not to mention the men, let's just talk about the women, many of them are in the direction of sweet and eccentric style.
But Wang Ou leaned in this direction, and it seemed a bit mismatched.
Zheng Xu asked someone to go to Wang Ou's contact information more than half a year ago, called her, and explained his views, and then the two used this incident as an introduction, so they chatted intermittently...
Zheng Xu is ready to make Wang Ou, or Yang Xiu in the play, into a local girl from the countryside who comes out of the countryside into a tomb robber with glamorous makeup.
The male protagonist Qin Anping and Zheng Xu invited Duan Yihong, who has become popular with two military-themed films in the past two years.
Compared with the slightly bland and greasy captain of the literary investigation in the original play, Zheng Xu prefers Duan Yihong's feeling of being a little ruthless.
The people who play against him, the average actor can't hold it, and finally I remembered Mr. Zhang Jiayi, Zhang Jiayi, a middle-aged uncle, usually has the style of an old cadre, in the old saying, that is a person who wears traitor clothes and looks like an underground worker!
Zheng Xu took a fancy to this slightly righteous style, and the villains played with this style were more dramatic.
For the other supporting roles, Pangolin Zheng Xu invited an acquaintance, this person and his brother are buddies, formerly called Li Qiang, and later became famous, and now his name is Li Yixiang.
Speaking of this name, many people may not be familiar with it, but when it comes to his role, he is well-known, and he participated in the filming of the movie "Blind Well" a few years ago, and cooperated with Baoqiang, who had just debuted at that time.
In addition, in the popular drama "Myth", which will be broadcast next year, he played Liu Bang!
is the Liu Bang who has the temperament of a scoundrel.
Especially when he starred in the blind well, he was honest with a bit of sinister and vicious temperament.
It stands to reason that people are now popular, and a pangolin will not let him come to play it on purpose, but it doesn't matter!
Zheng Xu made a phone call to this brother, who came back from the capital the next day, and the two met in person and talked for a long time.
That's right, this brother and Zheng Xu are fellow countrymen, authentic Zhongzhou locals, otherwise, they wouldn't be buddies with Zheng Xu's brother.
In fact, the actors who played the pangolin and the wheel in the original play played very well, but what time period is it now, and the Internet is not so developed now.
Zheng Xu couldn't contact the other actors in the original play for a while, and he couldn't spend a lot of energy to find these little actors.
After solving a few leading actors, the other small supporting roles will be easy to do, and it will be solved through the contact in the station.
The rest is the sponsor, this is a modern drama, although it is about tomb robbing, but Zheng Xu doesn't want to miss the money he should earn.
Earn more and earn less, but there is a qualitative difference between having and not! Let's put up the shelves first.
In order to attract sponsorship, Zheng Xu didn't bother much.
There are not many well-known local enterprises in Zhongzhou City, and the ruthless Zheng Xu has found two sponsors in addition to the clothing, and the others, the cultural investigation team is busy handling cases, and they always have to eat, and some dramas eat instant noodles, so how can it be done? !
There are well-known domestic food companies Sanquan and Synear in Zhongzhou City, and it is not too little to find Synear to pull 200,000 sponsorship Zheng Xu, and the cultural investigation team will eat quick-frozen dumplings instead!
How to eat dumplings alone, drink a cup of coffee when you are tired from work... No, let's have a cup of milk tea~
From the Mixue Bingcheng, which has just started to expand, it has brought in 200,000 sponsorships, as well as additional benefits, and the crew's drinks are all inclusive!
Police cars also need sponsorship, and the model Paladin of the fire of Zhongzhou Nissan in recent years is arranged! Although they didn't give sponsorship fees, they sponsored three Paladin!
Zheng Xu borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and promised that after the filming was completed, the three cars would be donated to the police department that borrowed the venue.
Now even the site of the civil investigation team has been solved.
Before the official establishment of this drama, Zheng Xu did most of the relevant work, and he started work as soon as the funds were in place!
I was writing and drawing in my notebook as I thought about it until the phone rang.
Looking at the note on the caller prompt: Wang Ou.
Zheng Xu is still a little puzzled, why is this calling now?
"Hey~ What is Mr. Wang calling for?"
A slightly hoarse voice came from the phone: "What are you busy with?" Brother Qin contacted me just now, so I'll tell you to arrive a few days in advance and meet you first. ”
