Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Ultimate Note
During this period, Lu Qing also gave Su Ming a script, which was a Republic of China drama "Living Color".
This is the drama that the company is preparing to open this year, and it has been almost prepared, and the heroine has set Tang Tang, and she can start it at any time.
Originally, this script had already been handed to her, as long as Su Ming wanted to play, the role of the male protagonist was almost certain to be his, after all, to a certain extent, the company held Su Ming as a brother, and a good book almost had to be passed from Lu Qing's hands.
But Su Ming wrote the script early and made a project plan, and he seemed to be more interested in the movie "My Girlhood".
So recently, there was a rumor in the company that it was going to take this role to Li Yifeng to play, which was a kind of compensation for him.
Lu Qing was not very happy when she heard this, no matter what promises the company had made to Li Yifeng before, the role of Baili Tu Su was won by Su Ming with his ability, how could he make it look like he had robbed other people's things, and he had to pay compensation?
So she has to bring the script to Su Ming to see, if he can see this script, it is not impossible to coordinate the time to shoot both the drama and the movie.
Su Ming is urgently rehearsing for the graduation drama recently, and the role of the graduation drama is usually decided around December, when Su Ming was filming "Shanshan is Coming", he couldn't spare time to conduct pre-rehearsals, and he, as a signed artist who has already started to play the male lead, and will definitely not lack filming in the future, feels that it is better not to grab this precious performance opportunity with his classmates, so he only chose a marginal role with no role.
He also quickly caught up with his classmates and integrated into the rehearsals.
Taking advantage of the rehearsal break, Su Ming flipped through the script sent by Lu Qing.
"Living Color"!
This drama is not a serious Republic of China drama, it should be called a Republic of China idol drama, a light comedy, the ratings are not bad, 50 cities have a rating of 1.89, but this rating also borrowed the light of Li Yifeng, who was popular at the time.
Even so, Su Ming, who is now full of choices in his mind, can no longer look at such a script.
The quality of this kind of drama is average, it was broadcast in a hurry, and the ratings are very good, but as soon as it was broadcast, it was left behind by the public, no one remembered what its plot was about, and no one was interested in discussing it again.
Compared with such a drama, Su Ming would rather choose a book that is okay for ratings, but will still be discussed and edited many years later.
He called Lu Qing back.
"Isn't this drama almost ready to start filming soon?"
"That's not delayed, isn't "My Girlhood" still in preparation, you just took advantage of this time to shoot this drama, and then turn your head to make a movie."
Lu Qing personally thinks that this script is actually quite good, it is ridiculous, love and hate, and the heroine is Tang Tang, so the ratings should not be bad.
"I don't like this script, it looks like an assembly line work, the male protagonist is too stupid, I feel that the ratings may be good, but in addition to making my actual performance a little better, there is no blessing for the follow-up development."
Su Ming gave an evaluation unceremoniously, not caring at all that this was his own company's project.
I don't know why, hearing Su Ming say this, Lu Qing was instantly relieved, "Okay, since you don't like it, then let Li Yifeng act it, and let it be given to him." ”
Su Ming couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that Sister Lu Qing is angry with others!" ”
Lu Qing snorted.
"There's no need, I'm not on the same track as him anymore."
He has recently begun to think about copying the next ...... No, what did you shoot?
Those who have original works can stock up on original works first, of course, his current funds are not enough to carry out large-scale copyright acquisitions, and he is ready to wait until after this summer.
As for the rest, Su Ming thought about it, the most important thing is that Huan Rui's idea has to make them feel profitable.
Su Ming suddenly thought of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", the copyright of this well-known big IP is in the hands of Huanrui, and they have always had the idea of adapting it into a film and television drama.
When he chatted with Sister Lu Qing some time ago, she revealed that the company was already looking for a screenwriter to adapt the content of the novel, and he would definitely be able to get one of the two male protagonists' roles at that time.
If nothing else, "The Legend of the Ancient Sword" exploded in the summer vacation, and Huan Rui also became famous, and they will instantly reach a cooperation with Kiwi to jointly create the big IP of "Tomb Robbery Notes" and create a tomb robbery universe.
At that time, in order to contribute to this project and further ensure its success rate, Su Ming, a popular traffic who was picked up by the company, must assume the same responsibilities as Li Yifeng in his previous life.
If you want to refuse easily, it is probably not so easy.
If God destined him to make this drama, then why not make a high-quality version?
He didn't want that a few years later, when his version of "Notes on Tomb Robbery" was talked about, there would only be a stalk of "handing over to the country".
Then, it shouldn't be difficult for this version, which was filmed at the peak of the original fame, to become an existence with no quality achievements.
Su Ming took a pen in his hand and wrote and drew on the paper, and on the other end of the phone, Lu Qing was still talking.
"That is, you can already make your own script, how powerful. But even so, you have to read the script first, and if you don't like it, you can play it for others. ”
Su Ming smiled and responded to her, "Yes, yes, thank my agent for valuing me so much, thank you for your hard work, thank you Dade." ”
"I'm here again, okay, don't bother you with rehearsals."
Lu Qing hung up the phone, and Su Ming's pen tip also stopped on the paper - "Ultimate Notes".
He drew several circles on the title of the play.
The IP of "Notes on Tomb Robbery" has really made many versions, and few of them have been restored, all of which suck the blood of the original work.
Even the adaptation of "Rebirth of the Extreme Sea Listening to Thunder" by the third uncle of the southern school was still indescribable, the little brother became a large "blood bag", Bai Haotian became the fan sister of the third master from the little one to the fourth sister of the Iron Triangle, and the fans of the original work were suffocated every minute after watching it.
In contrast, "Ultimate Notes" can be said to be the version that most restores the original work.
When the fame of the original work has been exhausted by one adaptation after another, after such a low-cost version with little starring and no fame was launched, fans of the original work finally felt surprised.
He even filmed just the right number of parts, and the short 36 episodes contain the stories of four books: "Snake Swamp Ghost Town", "Mysterious Sea Homecoming", "Yinshan Ancient Building" and "Qionglong Stone Shadow".
These are the times when the fateful fetters of the protagonist group have been generated, and there is no heavy grief of the last part, the overall arrangement is more reasonable, and the characters do not have OOC, retaining many highlights of the little brother, and those who have not read the book can also understand the main plot well.
Therefore, it has also attracted a lot of non-original parties to watch, and the reputation in this part of the group is also very good.
It can be seen that a well-made adaptation has to make people who have not read the original work feel good.
Later, the audience gave many comments on the adaptation of the "Tomb Robbery Notes" series, which were-
"Only the ultimate notes and the water-going version of the sea of sand can be seen."
"The lower the content of Xu Lei, the better it looks."
Su Ming's pen tapped on the table.
While all the copyrights of "Notes on Tomb Robbery" were still in Huanrui's hands, he took the initiative to solve problems for the company and provide the script, and the company should be very happy.
