Chapter 3 The grass platform team has just opened

In the conference room on the third floor of CCTV, the room was pitch black, only a beam of light hit the curtain in front, and the TV series "Journey to the West" filmed by Xiaori was being screened.

Most people don't understand it, but it doesn't prevent comrades from examining it from a critical point of view.

This is the world's first drama version of "Journey to the West", but the adaptation is too magical, Tang Seng in the play has become a woman, often Kiss with his apprentices, Sha Seng has become a "kappa" in the myth of Xiaori, the top of his head is bald, Sun Wukong has become lustful, and his eyes light up when he sees the beauty of the Dragon Palace.

Although the adaptation is very absurd, as the first person to eat crabs, after the broadcast of this version of "Journey to the West", it still triggered a trend of chasing dramas in a small day, and it became popular all of a sudden.

Not only is it popular in Xiaori, but it has also been sold to many Western countries, and the foreign babies have become fans of Sun Wukong after reading it, and "Journey to the West" has also become a cultural representative of Xiaori for a time, but this is obviously red. Naked cultural plunder.

"Foolish!"

"What the hell!"

In the conference room, indignant criticism was heard from time to time.

Gu Bei sat in the corner, trying to hide his figure, he saw it with relish, Xiao Ri's brain hole was really big.

Burst......

Sun Wukong's golden hoop stick poked into the ground, and oil splattered instantly.

We workers have power, hey, we workers have power......

At the end of the episode, the lights come on.

I didn't pay attention to it just now, but now I realized that a few old smoking guns were gathered together, and the huge conference room was almost invisible.

Director Yang Jie got up and walked to the front, and just as she was about to speak, she opened her mouth and coughed.

Seeing this, Gu Bei quietly extinguished the half of the cigarette in his hand, opened the window, and snorted out.

As an old social animal, this bit of vision is still necessary.

Yang Jie glanced at Gu Bei in surprise: "Let's talk about our feelings!" ”

"Director Yang, how can you still feel it, I'm almost full of gas."

The middle-aged woman who spoke was called Peng Li, an artist in the stage, and her tone of voice was taller than that of a tall person, and she was a little heroic.

"Angry? That's what about the rest? ”

Everyone spoke freely, and the central idea was that Xiao Ren was not a good person, and he used China's cultural treasures to make up nonsense and maliciously distort them, which was simply heinous.

Yang Jie and the other big guys finished speaking, and they didn't know whether they were intentional or unintentional, so they skipped Gu Bei.

probably feels that there is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm, what insight can a stunned young man have.

Young people listen more, watch more, talk less.

"I think the same as everyone else, and I am also very angry, but have you ever thought about a question, "Journey to the West", as one of our four famous novels in China, why did Xiao Ri shoot it first?"

When he said this, the big guy was silent all of a sudden.

Why?

What else could it be!

I have no money, I have no experience, and besides, I want to shoot but I can't get support.

Others, it is good to say that the word "money" is enough to persuade all artists who are determined to promote the traditional national culture to quit.

"Director Yang, just say, how did the station decide?"

The first to speak was Peng Li, she is Yang Jie's old team, she has cooperated many times before, has a good relationship with each other, and does not have so many scruples when she speaks.

"Looks like you all know the news."

Yang Jie said, glanced at Gu Bei, and then slid lightly.

"At the meeting this morning, Taili has made up his mind to shoot our own classical masterpieces, one is "Dream of Red Mansions" and the other is "Journey to the West".

This news has long been rumored in the front desk, but it has not been finalized, and it is not until today that the official decision is made.

"Great!"

Everyone cheered, and Gu Bei hesitated to shout two voices and accept a vote?

I just felt so embarrassed, and I couldn't get excited at all.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Yang Jie couldn't help but think of the scene when the deputy director Hong Minsheng ordered the general at the morning meeting.

"Yang Jie, if you are asked to make "Journey to the West" into a TV series, do you dare to accept it?"

At that time, this sentence was like a thunderclap in her head, and Yang Jie almost wondered if she was hallucinating.

After being stunned for a moment, he rushed out: "If you have money, you dare, why don't you dare!"

Subsequently, Hong Minsheng made a final decision: "Okay! Bureau of the Party. The committee decided that Comrade Yang Jie would film "Journey to the West". ”

Such a big thing was decided so hastily.

Yang Jie couldn't believe that such a major subject matter was actually handed over to her as a "opera" director by the stage

Wang Fulin's acceptance of "Dream of Red Mansions" is calm and natural, and he has filmed "Eighteen Years in the Enemy Camp" and has rich experience.

And Yang Jie is still surging and difficult to calm down until now.

Because this is the realization of a dream that she has pursued for many years.

She has liked dramas and movies since she was a child, and was assigned to CCTV's art department, although she is not her favorite movie, but she feels that TV and movies are similar, both are the art of using the lens to express.

However, the Ministry of Literature and Art implements a basic division of labor, and the three groups of drama, opera, and song and dance are not subordinate to each other, and they are clearly distinguished.

Yang Jie was arranged in the opera group, she didn't understand or like opera, but the division of labor favored her to engage in opera.

At that time, the operas were all excellent programs that had matured on the stage, as long as they were broadcast well, but Yang Jie, who had always been restless, didn't want to just broadcast it as it was, and always wanted to make something new and famous.

So, she made a bold attempt to cooperate with the Peking Opera Company to move the opera program to the location and combine it with live shooting.

The first time I tried it was "Xiang Luopa", after it was filmed, the effect was good, and it only cost 1300 in total, but it was still criticized by the leaders of the Ministry of Literature and Art at that time, asking her why she didn't broadcast it, because the broadcast could be broadcast without spending money.

Later, this "Xiang Luopa" was sold to the old American Hawaiian TV station for 30,000 US dollars, and also made a sum of foreign exchange, but no one mentioned Yang Jie's credit.

Although some achievements have been made, Yang Jie's heart has always been thinking about the TV series.

However, it is not easy to make a TV series, in the Ministry of Literature and Art, TV dramas are regarded as high arts, and only the director of the drama group can shoot them.

But Yang Jie is not a person who follows the rules by nature, and once secretly filmed a "Laoshan Taoist", but was criticized by the leader in charge for disobeying the organizational arrangement, and ordered her to make a public review at the head meeting of the Literature and Art Department.

In the past two years, she has been doing her job on the one hand, and on the other hand, she is also thinking about how to break free from the shackles and do what she wants to do.

She felt that she had the ability, but she didn't have the opportunity, and then watched the programs broadcast on TV, Xiangjiang's "Huo Yuanjia", Xiaori's "Astro Boy", and Da Laomei's "Garrison's Death Squad".

The number of TV dramas that really belong to the Chinese people is pitiful.

Some time ago, the leaders above put forward the latest instructions: CCTV should put China's classical literary masterpieces on the TV screen and shoot our own TV series!

When Yang Jie first learned the news, she couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, but she had to warn herself: "Don't be delusional anymore, these have nothing to do with you, don't think about it."

But just three months ago, the director in charge of the Ministry of Literature and Art, who had been at odds with Yang Jie, was transferred to radio and television, and Hong Minsheng, who had just been promoted to deputy director, was temporarily in charge of presiding over the work of the Ministry of Literature and Art.

I thought it was a simple appeasement, but I didn't expect that the big project of "Journey to the West" really fell on Yang Jie's head.

"Okay, okay, it's almost enough, what are you happy about now, when we make "Journey to the West" that satisfies the audience, it's not too late to be happy."

The Long March has not yet taken the first step.

Yang Jie said, her gaze slid over everyone's faces, and this time even Gu Bei didn't miss it.

That's her team.

An assistant director Zhu Xiaofeng, a photographer Wang Chongqiu, an artist Peng Li, plus a lighting Sun Yongsheng, by the way, and the young man named Gu Bei, he is a ...... Handyman.

The staffing is not complete, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a grass platform team.

Originally, there were many elite soldiers and strong generals she selected, but the support that Taili could give was these people in front of her.

"Now "Journey to the West" is just a book, to make it out and put it on TV, we still have a lot of work to do, I hope that every comrade here must have sufficient psychological preparation, this is a very difficult task, done well, no one will remember us behind the scenes, but once it is not done well, every one of us is a sinner."

Ooh......

As soon as he said this, everyone's expressions instantly became serious, and even Gu Bei felt a thousand pounds on his shoulders.

"There are a lot of things to do, let's first set a general direction, find out the difficulties, and then solve them one by one, overcome them one by one, let's talk about it, Lao Wang, you come first."

Wang Chongqiu and Yang Jie are two people, Wang Chongqiu has always looked at the distress of the person next to him, and now that he has finally got the opportunity, he must support it fully.

"Let me say a few words briefly, everyone knows that "Journey to the West" is a mythical story, Buddhism and demons, elves and monsters, a line of words in the book, those characters can fly to the sky and the earth, and fall into the mountains and seas, how should we shoot to accurately express it through the lens? That's a tough one. ”

Stunt!

Gu Bei left two words on the notebook.

With Wang Chongqiu taking the lead, others also raised their own problems, how to design the image of the characters in order to achieve the satisfaction of the audience, what style should be used in martial arts, and how should it be filmed?

Yang Jie listened very carefully, writing and drawing in her notebook from time to time, and Gu Bei was also serious, but the frequency of his pen was much lower.

"That little comrade, it's called ...... Gu Bei, let me introduce to you, Gu Bei, a new colleague in the art group, Xiao Gu, don't just listen to others, you are also a member of our group, tell me your own opinions. ”

Belch?

Gu Bei was stunned for a moment, and when he looked up, he saw that everyone was looking at him.

I'm the head garlic, why is this still the focus?
