Chapter 119: "Struggle" is on the air
The Mai family won the Mao Dun Literature Award for "Secret Calculation", and he is also the first person in China to win this honor for spy warfare.
After "Secret Calculation" was made into a TV series, its influence became a phenomenon, and the Mai family became famous.
As soon as "The Wind" came out, it immediately attracted the interest of a bunch of film and television companies...
Tianmei Media won the right to adapt movies and TV series for the first time.
The original work of "The Sound of the Wind" is really good, divided into three parts: east wind, west wind, and quiet wind.
Three stories, three versions.
The first version was provided by Pan Lao of our party, and his son relayed it to the family "I";
The main narrator of the second version is Gu Xiaomeng, who was one of the five people back then;
The last part, "Quiet Wind", is actually a completion of the things of the year by the "me" of the home.
Through three parts, different solutions are provided for the events of the year, and the grass snake gray line is interlocking.
Even if the belief part is deleted, this is a good story with bold scale, wonderful group drama, and full of dramatic tension, and after adding faith, it further elaborates one thing: why can a person give everything and even his life for a belief and an ideal!
A person does things for money and interests, which is easy to understand, it can be seen and touched, and it is easy to form a complete logical chain; But belief is abstract, ideals are invisible, and to make an invisible thing visible and convincing, a tighter logical chain is needed.
Shen Xudong likes it very much...
There's no reason not to take the adaptation rights!
In fact, Jiang Wen was interested in "The Wind" from the beginning.
In the original time and space, he publicly said that he wanted to adapt "The Wind"...
However, Shen Xudong felt that he was not suitable: "I have written the script of "The Wind"... I'm going to find Director Gao Qunshu..."
Gao Qunshu nodded: "I read the script, it's very awesome... I'm ready not to change a word..."
"The scale can be larger, I told Han Dong, you can add a lot of bloody shots... Torturous! ”
The purpose of these scenes is not to be curious, but to make people feel - to let the audience know how much torture our heroes have endured!
Jiang Wen was embarrassed to rob other people's jobs, so he continued to ask: "... So what is "The Story of a Thief"? ”
"The story of bandits fighting bullies..."
"The Story of a Robber" in "The Story of the Ten Tales of the Night": A bandit with feelings, pretending to be the county magistrate, took office, killed the local bully Huang Shilang, and himself died because of the justice of the process.
When Jiang Wen heard this synopsis, he was very interested: "Bandits fighting bullies? ”
"Yes... Zhang Muzhi's wisdom fights Huang Shilang..."
"Mr. Ma Shitu's "The Story of the Thief of Officials"... Cheng, I'll go back and take a look! ”
"Well, I think this piece is for you!"
……
Jiang Wen still has a lot of weight, even if he is just an actor...
Recently, there has been a lot of news on the Internet: the new version of the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" directed by Chen Jialin invited Jiang Wen to play Cao Cao;
The filmmaker of the movie "White Deer Plain", which has been in preparation for many years, believes that Jiang Wen is the best candidate for the leading role;
That's right, the original director of "New Three Kingdoms" was Chen Jialin...
During the preparation period, he already felt physically and mentally exhausted, and if he fell ill after the start of filming, it would be too late to change the director.
So I decided to ask the producer to resign, hoping that an energetic young and middle-aged director would take over.
The second director is Yan Jiangang, and the investment has increased to 90 million! However, he also resigned, and at the same time withdrew his company's investment in the TV series.
The reason is that "due to a variety of complex reasons that are not suitable for indication at present, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" cannot meet the most basic creative conditions" and "it is difficult to reach an agreement with individual investors at the operational level".
In his statement, he also specifically pointed out that the literary scripts created by the screenwriters "should not be subversive, non-professional, and non-television."
It seems that the main contradiction between the two sides lies in the script.
The third director, Gao Xixi, finally completed the filming of nearly 100 episodes of the TV series...
After the broadcast, the biggest problem was still focused on the script!
Director Gao Xixi...
Wang Hailin said one thing: "The Legend of Chu and Han" has two scripts, one was written by him and Yan Gang, and the other was written by others, he and Chen Daoming were more inclined to write it by him, and investors also read it and thought that his and Yan Gang's scripts were good.
But director Gao Xixi didn't think so, he had already bought another script at that time, and that script cost money, so he mixed the two scripts...
Pay attention, the blend is not about whoever is good, but whoever writes the long!
Because... The longer you write, the longer you shoot, and the more money you make.
As for the words that appeared in the play, such as the Confucian students of the Qin Dynasty reciting the three-character scripture and "Your Majesty, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang have revolted in Daze Township".
A lot of viewers criticized the screenwriter...
Wang Hailin was very angry, and then directly posted his script on the Internet!
He said publicly: The fragment of the Three Character Classic appeared in the Qin Dynasty, which is an insult to a screenwriter, and no professional screenwriter will make this kind of mistake, as for the Daze Township Uprising, it is the same as the beginning of the Eight-Year War of Resistance Against Japan, that is, the actor is talking nonsense.
Think about it, Gao Xixi is a wasted name!
Chen Daoming and Wang Hailin's struggles are destined to be ineffective.
It's okay, Director Gao later filmed "The Great Battle" - I also crossed the river when he crossed the river, he crossed the river to take my Nanjing, and I crossed the river to take Xibaipo!
filming such an important drama as "Armageddon", a tiger should be sent to take charge, if a tiger can't be sent to take charge, at least a dog should be sent to guarantee the bottom. didn't expect to send a pig in the end, blinding such a strong lineup.
I'm speechless...
……
Zhao Baogang came with Tong Dawei, Wang Lei and Zhang Yi...
Come and make a cameo!
The reporters who interviewed the crew at the end of the cameo film...
It also adds a little bit of topicality to "Rise to Fame" - "Struggle" was broadcast...
"Struggle" was simultaneously broadcast in BJ, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, Shaanxi, HLJ, Jilin, Henan, Sichuan, Hubei, Fujian and other places, with the highest rating of 11.5% in three days, and the response was unprecedented!
On today's screens where all kinds of bitter dramas and period dramas are dominant, the happy and humorous youth drama "Struggle" stands out and becomes popular on the screen...
A social phenomenon has been generated!
Especially in BJ, with an average rating of 8.3%, it ranks first in the BJ area!
That's right, another phenomenal TV series was born.
According to the data, the number of replays of "Struggle" in 2007 reached 48 times - by 2019, the number of replays of "Struggle" was 193 times, ranking twelfth in the history of Chinese TV dramas...
The number of replays here refers specifically to the replays of Shangxing channels, excluding local stations.
Otherwise, there is no way to calculate at all!
At this time, Zhao Baogang, Tong Dawei, Zhang Yi, and Wang Lei came to make cameos, which definitely belonged to adding points to "Becoming Famous"...
You must know that the popularity of "Struggle" directly made several of them the most popular actors.
Of course Shen Xudong is happy!
Very warm reception for them...
