Chapter 34: Wang Jing...

"We will make "No. 1 in the World" a benchmark for martial arts dramas in the mainland, in terms of production, the minimum cost is 20 million, and the actors must also choose the most suitable ones..."

Wu Kebo blew it and summed it up in one sentence: take the money and smash it!

Shen Xudong is quite happy...

At this stage, the production of TV dramas is to pile up money, and the more you pile up, the better the effect!

"What are your thoughts on the actors?"

“… I think Yan Kuan, Huang Xiaoming, and Deng Chao are all very suitable..."

Shen Xudong casually said a few candidates that he thought were unlikely...

"It's low, the pattern is magnified, if we want to do it, we will do cross-strait co-production, don't limit our eyes to the mainland, any Xie Tingfeng and F4 can be invited!"

“… So I'll go back and think about it first? Calling you tomorrow? ”

"Hmm... In terms of actors, you just have to mention it! ”

The other side hung up the phone first, Shen Xudong was stunned for a while, and Shen Haobo hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"He asked me to draw up a cast... also said that he can invite famous actors from the two sides of the strait and three places! ”

“… Who? ”

"Wu Kebo..."Shen Xudong explained: "Senior Sister Chen Hao's boyfriend, I met when I was with the crew of "Tianlong"! ”

“… Chen Hao has a boyfriend? ”

"That's not the point, the point is that we have it this time, Wu Kebo will spend a lot of money on filming "No. 1 in the World", and hire me as the chief screenwriter..."

Shen Haobo was also excited, but he calmed down quickly: "... When is the contract signed? How much is the adaptation fee? Are there any TV stations involved? ”

“… I don't know, it's just an intention at the moment, I'll go back and make a cast list first..."

"Okay, I'll ask about these things... When the time comes, we'll have a press conference and get the word out..."

"Launch?"

"Such a big thing, of course, it has to be promoted," Shen Haobo continued: "You have to come out, let your readers know you, you see, you are young, handsome, studying in a prestigious school, and you have excellent grades... And you're also a post-80s generation, right? Why can Han Han become a famous writer born in the 80s, but you can't? ”

Shen Xudong resisted: "... I'm a screenwriter, behind the scenes, I don't need to be famous..."

"Why don't you be famous? If you're not famous, how can you increase book sales..."

“… Well written..."

Shen Haobo hated iron and steel: "Could it be that Han Han's "Like a Boy Flying Away" is very well written? They sold 800,000 copies... I earned more than one million in manuscript fees alone! ”

More than a million...

Shen Xudong was decisively moved, and did not hesitate: "... Then you can arrange it. ”

"Don't worry, at most, it's just a matter of a few media interviews..."

……

Chen Haoxue is still very powerful!

Shen Xudong decided to find an opportunity to repay him...

In fact, Shen Xudong is lucky, Wu Kebo wants to plant a flag - enter the mainland film and television!

Originally, what they wanted to start filming was a criminal investigation drama called "Human Witness", but they found Liu Guoqing, the script was written, and then the ban on the drama involved in the case was issued!

The so-called ban on dramas involved in the case is the 'purification of the screen' project, specifically speaking, all channels of TV stations at all levels broadcast the subject matter involving the case containing violence, homicide, terror and other content must be after 23 o'clock, once a violation is found, it must be dealt with seriously...

That is, primetime is not allowed to broadcast such episodes.

TV stations buy dramas, and the prices of prime-time dramas are definitely different from midnight episodes...

If you sell it to a TV station, you won't be able to get it back at all...

Audiovisual Copyright?

Piracy is too well developed ...

In a word, the ban on the dramas involved in the case ruined a bunch of episodes!

They can only choose other themes, it just so happens that Chen Hao has always wanted to play a heroine, and has always recommended "No. 1 in the World"...

That's it!

Wu Kebo has raised a lot of money and is ready to reorganize the company and do a big job!

The title of "No. 1 in the World" is also appropriate...

It's very simple to make a TV series, directors, producers, martial arts instructors, these professionals are all taking money to smash it...

It's the same with actors, choose the most famous actors you can!

……

Shen Xudong returned to the dormitory and forcibly did not announce the news that "No. 1 in the World" was adapted - he hadn't signed a contract yet, what if something happened?

said hello to my brothers as usual, did my position, turned on the computer, and then began to write the cast list of "No. 1 in the World"...

First of all, Shangguan Haitang must be Senior Sister Chen Hao, this doesn't need to be thought about;

Then the other three, Duan Tianya, the character design and the story line, refer to Ling Hu Chong...

Yan Kuan is quite suitable, both height and appearance are suitable for the male number one...

Returning to the sea with a knife, Nie Yuan or Deng Chao can do it;

Right or wrong...

It's a bit difficult, the character of a gangster, clever, cunning, greedy, cynical...

There's also a fool's play...

It's hard to play a fool, and if you play it, it's easy to become a madman...

Just pondering, Zhao Linhai suddenly walked over: "Fourth, what are you doing?" ”

“… Write a plan! ”

"You don't write the script of "The Peerless Twins", you don't write it?"

"Mr. Ma said, wait for the director to come over and make a few requests, and I'll write..."Shen Xudong glanced at him: "What's wrong?" ”

Zhao Xin also came over: "Then do you know who Ma Zhongjun found to be the director?" ”

"I don't know, he didn't say..."

Shen Xudong suddenly had a bad feeling: "Who did he find?" Did you know? ”

"It's all reported in the newspapers, I'm looking for Wang Jing!"

"Wang Jing... Oh..."

Shen Xudong instantly understood, Ma Zhongjun was mysterious...

It turned out to be Wang Jing!

It's very abrupt, my mind is dizzy, and I can't hear the sounds around me...

It took a long time to recover, and what caught my eye was the concerned eyes of the boss Zhao Linhai: "You... Are you okay? ”

"It's okay..."

Zhao Xin brought him a glass of water: "Dizzy again?" Haven't you been sick for half a year? ”

“… When I heard Wang Jing's name, I was stimulated! ”

Shen Xudong took the water and said a joke casually...

"Are you alright, do you want to go to the hospital?"

Shen Xudong hurriedly waved his hand: "It's okay, it's an old problem, I've checked it before..."

“… Do you think Wang Jing is not good as a director? ”

"The eldest and the third... I'll think for myself first. ”

Shen Xudong let the two of them leave, and then fell into deep thought - he had just gained some memories, which were about Wang Jing, including "The Peerless Twins"...

Oh, that version is not called "The Peerless Shuangjiao", the magic has changed to the point that even Wang Jing himself is embarrassed to call it "The Peerless Shuangjiao", and it has been renamed "Little Fish and Flowers"...

is a terrible drama, the director and screenwriter have never figured out what kind of story they want to tell.

If you want to make a light comedy, then a happy ending, if you want to play depth, then there must be foreshadowing, there is resistance, and there is the tragic beauty that the characters cannot overcome fate...

I feel that halfway through the shooting, I think it's still a tragedy, so I let the characters go offline...

In order to forcibly shape the tragedy, it is staged again and again: every time a good person saves someone, it is in vain, and a bad person can always harm someone without intention.

And... Isn't the protagonist a little fish and a flower?

Why is it Jiang Yuyan who is hanging?

Generally speaking, in martial arts dramas, the growth of the protagonist is very important, and it must be positive.

Even if it is a tragedy, the ending of the story must make people feel a glimmer of hope.

Wang Jing's drama, the two protagonists, Hua Wujian may still grow a little, learned the true qi of the mixed yuan, Xiao Yuer is the death of the two heroines, completely defeated him, he can't stand up, and he can't feel the motivation to live at all...

Instead, it's the villain?

As for the other villain, Liu Xi, he is a pure and vicious person, a villain without a three-dimensional sense, and almost no personal charm...

From Shen Xudong's point of view, this book is too bad!
