Chapter 5 Crew Reaction
Generally speaking, reporters and media are not allowed to enter the film and television city to interview the works being filmed without permission, and the film and television dramas that are being filmed will also be issued a media prohibition order!
That's why there will be proxy auctions in the future...
The publicity and distribution of works will generally be handed over to the special media to be responsible for reporting, and media visits and interviews will be arranged at a specified time...
But... Shen Xudong is different, he is a screenwriter with the group, and the reporter interviewed him without delaying the normal shooting, so the production director agreed!
The media that interviewed him is not very well-known, it seems to be called "China Entertainment Report"...
At first, he asked, 'Did you write "The Great Hero: Seven Monsters of Jiangnan"?' ’
Shen Xudong nodded: "Yes." ”
"Then why are you writing it?"
"Make money, now Jin Yong's drama is popular, you can publish it by writing some opinions..."
"And when did you start writing?"
"Last year, I first rubbed the popularity of "Smiling Proud Jianghu"..."
"Rubbing the heat?"
"It's when the series is broadcast and the media is hotly discussed..."
"Then what do you think of that version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu"?"
Shen Xudong was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said: "I feel that the spiritual temperament and theme appeal of the whole drama completely deviate from the original novel, and the essence of the original novel is the struggle for power, and it will be replaced by a competitive game that is the best in the world in martial arts... But I still like it, except for Li Yanpeng's version of Linghu Chong, which is really not to taste, everything else is good, in line with the oriental aesthetics, and the color of the clothes or the background is a natural beauty. ”
"Do you think Li Yanpeng's acting is not good?"
"Of course, Ling Hu Chong's background color is sincerity, carrying the burden of punishing evil and promoting good, pretending to be chic, in fact, he is struggling in the rivers and lakes, his heart is depressed, chic is just a mask, but Li Yanpeng... Don't say anything else, let's just say that the scene of pretending to be a general is really bad! ”
“… Many people say that Lu Songxian's version is more classic! ”
"It's normal," Shen Xudong shrugged: "Mainland dramas and mainland actors are always overly underestimated, and what's even more terrifying is that they have to come over and step on it." Many people haven't even watched the full TV series, and they start to tout and belittle this side, which is very unfair, but it is also the norm... Let's keep up the good work! ”
At the end of this topic, "Shooting the Condor" was changed: "Have you watched the latest version of "Shooting the Condor"? ”
"There's attention, but there's no time to look..."
"Focus on what?"
"Media evaluation..."After thinking about it, Shen Xudong said: "I found a problem, let's do it now, whether the drama is good or not, whether the ratings are said or not, the right to judge is in the hands of the media."
In fact, the media only represents the interests of some people, and it is petty bourgeoisie. The ratings of the works they approve are not so high.
I feel that the biggest difficulty for us screenwriters now is how to reconcile these two evaluation systems. ”
"You're right, the ratings of "Condor Shooting" are actually quite high..."
"Condor Shooting" was launched, and the ratings of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" ranked first among all stations in 14 major cities in 14 provinces, including Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, Sichuan, Yunnan, Shanxi, and Jilin.
Not only that, in terms of commercial returns, Zhejiang TV, which bought the premiere rights, although it set a record of 70,000 episodes, its advertising revenue was as high as 20 million!
It's definitely profitable.
“… Let's talk about "Dragon Babu", do you think this version of "Dragon Babu" can surpass the TVB version? ”
Shen Xudong thought for a while and said: "First of all, I want to say a word: the production of Hong Kong dramas will not be magnificent, but they also know how to promote their strengths and avoid weaknesses, and they will bypass the aspects they are not good at. ”
"Let's talk about TVB's production model, continue the Shaw Brothers studio assembly line system, try to save as much as possible, use studio scenes, and rarely use exterior scenes..."
The production team of "Dragon Babu" also knows its own shortcomings in this regard, and the filming and framing are mainly close-ups, highlighting the actors and emphasizing the artistic conception, so as to promote the strengths and avoid the weaknesses and increase the visibility of the picture.
In addition, it must be emphasized that during the filming of "Dragon Babu", Li Tiansheng's director team had already experienced the experience of "The Legend of the Deer and Ding", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the team was more mature. ”
"One more point, I want to talk about it, many people may not know that TVB is almost a collection of the power of the whole Taiwan to create "Dragon Babu", TVB itself is a place that pays great attention to business and efficiency, but "Dragon Babu" is only the first episode of the first scene, Qiao Feng appeared on the filming, and it took 40 days."
"Talking about transcendence, it is estimated that it is unlikely! TVB can't surpass it again! ”
However, it is also an indisputable fact that the TVB version of "Dragon Babu" deviates from the original work, and it always can't escape the pestle of fast-food entertainment culture in terms of character portrayal and plot selection, and it lacks the charm of the original book and the profundity of the theme of "can't be asked". ”
"Therefore, as long as we shoot according to the framework of the original plot, combined with the great rivers and mountains of the mainland, even if we can't surpass it, I don't think it's too bad!"
"That's a good point, then..."
……
Shen Xudong is here to talk with reporters, the crew of "Tianlong", many people know about Shen Xudong's interview, and also know his "The Great Hero: Seven Monsters of Jiangnan"...
All the mouths agreed...
In this era, talented people are still quite popular.
What's more, Shen Xudong is still a handsome person, a student in the Department of Drama and Literature.
The main thing is that the sisters have a good impression of him and help blow ...
And Shen Xudong respects people very much, the crew of "Tianlong", who has a lot to deal with him, except for his sisters, who are a bunch of supporting roles, such as the four villains and the like...
Everyone has a good impression of him.
This is a quantitative change that leads to a qualitative change...
Well, it's far from ...
After all, his identity is still just a screenwriter with the group.
It's just a small adjustment for the crew!
The crew of "Tianlong", but there is Lin Zhiying, who cares about a screenwriter with the group?
But Liu Yifei, the actor of Wang Yuyan, is quite interested in him, or wants to ask the screenwriter about Wang Yuyan's understanding...
However, she was embarrassed to find Shen Xudong directly...
Can't find it, her mother watches her 24 hours a day.
Mainly when Huang Xiaolei chatted with Shu Zhan and Jiang Xin, she mentioned Shen Xudong's views on the characters of "Dragon Babu", mainly commenting on the character arcs of several characters...
For example, Qiao Feng's background is a tragic hero, but he is also a person in the rivers and lakes, since he is mixed with the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to kill people, and there must be ferocity in his body!
commented on Duan Yu, saying that his image refers to Jia Baoyu, who treats people generously and has a gentle personality like jade...
These are all things that Shu advocated learning to Liu Yifei.
Liu Yifei's understanding of Wang Yuyan - Wang Yuyan is the perfect girl...
She said it herself!
Therefore, Wang Yuyan in this version of "Dragon Babu" is a wooden beauty, thin and boring...
She herself realized that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong...
