Chapter 492: Zhang Yimou: I'm too good at this
The preparation of a variety show is naturally not so simple and can be done in a few words.
However, under the leadership of the heads of the two companies, the implementation speed of the light and shadow era and light and shadow fast broadcast is very fast.
It is not easy to make a variety show, whether it is an in-studio variety show or an outdoor variety show.
Especially in the era of light and shadow and light and shadow express, they have no experience in variety shows at all.
This thing isn't something you can make up with a plan.
It's like making a movie, you don't have to have a script to shoot perfectly according to the script, you also need a professional crew team and an excellent director.
If you want to make a variety show, you must first have a team of choreographers and directors.
In this regard, the era of light and shadow has to be dispatched.
After briefly meeting Chen Dewei and confirming the establishment of the project, Li Xiaoping took the lead.
It is unrealistic to let the light and shadow era cultivate its own team, and Li Xiaoping's choice is, of course, to wave a hoe and start digging people.
The first goal was to dig the mango first.
Should I say it or not, in the current major TV stations in the mainland, Mango's variety show team is the best at doing talent shows, starting from "Super Girl" that year, Mango has done several talent shows for male and female singers in a row, and has accumulated a lot of experience.
And the salary given by the TV station to the choreographer and director and the behind-the-scenes production team is really not high, to be honest.
Even the team that made the hit "Supergirl" and "Fast Man" got the first salary in the industry, that is, the level of monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, most of it was earned by TV stations and brokerage companies established by Mango.
When Li Xiaoping was eyeing them, wielding a money stick, it was not too easy to poach people.
Of course, she didn't just stare at Mango Channel, Dragon TV's variety show production team also received an invitation to jump ship from the era of light and shadow.
Dragon TV's "Come on! The "Good Boy" program is also a leader in the mainland talent show.
Jing Boran , Qiao Renliang , Fu Xinbo , Zhang Chao , Li Yifeng , Wang Chuanjun , Pu Bajia , Ma Tianyu and other singers and actors who later became famous in domestic entertainment all came out of this variety show.
More than "Come on! Good Boy", Dragon TV also has a program "My Type My Show", which is also a star-making machine.
The representatives who emerged through this show include Zhang Jie, Qi Wei, Xue Zhiqian, Liu Wei, Yuan Chengjie, Zhao Yingjun and others, who are also full of heroes.
Mango TV and Dragon TV can be regarded as the most experienced in talent shows in China, and the team is also the best.
Li Xiaoping came up and aimed at these two companies, wielding a big stick to dig up people.
And her vision is not limited to the country.
South Korea, next door, also came into her sight.
When the perspective is zoomed in to the Asian perspective, South Korea is undoubtedly the most powerful, the most experienced, and the best in the field of variety shows in the whole of Asia.
Outdoor variety shows, love variety, in-studio variety shows, idol interactive variety shows, and funny variety shows, South Korea is currently the No. 1 in Asia.
Even in terms of talent shows, although the 101 that has made a splash in Asia has not yet been born, there is already a singer talent show called "Super Star K" in South Korea.
Although there is a language barrier, as long as you spend a little money with a translator, the Korean variety show team can also be recruited to work in Huaxia.
In order to do a good job in this groundbreaking actor talent show this time, Li Xiaoping has put a lot of effort into it.
Only by creating a top domestic variety show production team can we not waste such a good variety show idea, make the most perfect effect of this variety show, and strive to make a sensation across the country in one fell swoop, and become a phenomenal variety show like "Super Girl" back then!
It will take time, though.
It was also while preparing the variety show production team that Li Xiaoping also sent invitations to the mentors who were interested in inviting them.
She accepted Chen Dewei's suggestion, and the first person she found was Zhang Yimou.
Zhang Yimou has raised his eyebrows a little this year.
The failure of "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" in 2009 once made Zhang Yimou the target of ridicule on the whole network, and suffered from online exposure for a long time.
Zhang Yimou fell off the altar, Jiang Lang exhausted his talents, and criticism such as no longer being talented.
Zhang Yimou, who had just passed the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games and was awarded the title of national teacher, the praise of the national teacher has not lasted for a year, and it has become derogatory, and these two words have also been interpreted as jokes.
It wasn't until the release of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" last year that the trend of criticism and ridicule of Zhang Yimou was finally stopped, and his declining reputation was stopped.
In the first half of this year, "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" was shortlisted for many awards at home and abroad, won the Huabiao Award for Best Film, and won the actress at the Valladolid International Film Festival in Spain, which made Zhang Yimou a little more angry.
And just now, he's just free.
In January, his new film, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", which was heavily prepared, was launched in Nanjing, and the filming has been successfully completed.
Although it is said that there is still post-production work, compared with Zhang Yimou's previous rhythm of filming, preparing and writing a film, Zhang Yimou's next movie this time does not even have a plan, and the schedule for the next six months to a year is empty, and he only needs to do the later stage of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".
This bit of work, for Zhang Yimou, can even be regarded as a rest.
Maybe it's the luck of the light and shadow era that is really good, just in time for Zhang Yimou's schedule relaxation period.
When the variety show planning case of "Actors Please Be in Place (Tentative Name)" was sent to Zhang Yimou, he didn't plan to do a variety show, but he just looked at Zhang Yimou who planned the case for the sake of the face of the company in the light and shadow era and Wu Yuan's face, but he was immediately attracted by this variety show after watching it.
A rookie actor competition actor talent show variety show!
This is too fresh, and it just happened to hit the point in Zhang Yimou's heart.
If you want to say which big director in China likes to use newcomer actors the most, it is undoubtedly Zhang Yimou.
In almost every movie he makes, he boldly uses new actors, and even two or three new actors often take the lead.
"The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is two rookie actors playing the male and female leads, and "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is also a rookie actor playing the heroine.
In Zhang Yimou's view, rookie actors are the most spiritual, they are like a blank piece of paper, they have not been dyed with any indelible colors, and they can best show their true emotions and colors that they have not found themselves.
This time, the light and shadow era plans to find fifty new actors to compete on the same stage, let four mentors train these new actors by themselves, and finally give birth to a best performance team among fifty people.
Wow, this is too much of Zhang Yimou's interest.
He's too good at training new actors.
It's a bit of a trick. (End of chapter)
