In 13 years, when the first season of "Never Expected" appeared, it was an epoch-making product.

d was launched in 16 years, and after that, the era of short videos began in full swing. But "Never Expected" was already playing with this concept three years before the appearance of short videos.

At that time, at that time, this drama was not called a short video, but a mini-series and a short drama.

The main story is "short, flat, and fast", and there is no connection between the plots.

The only connection between them is that the protagonist is a man named "Wang Da Hammer".

At the beginning of each episode, there is a sad face of the male protagonist and a monologue of "I am Wang Da Hammer, who am I". At the end, it is "I am Wang Dazhui, I never expected ......" to reverse the previous plot.

Back then, when he opened "Never Expected" for the first time, Pu Tong was "shocked" by its magical style.

The nonsensical funny form is very provocative to the audience, and those who can't accept it will abandon the drama, and those who find it interesting will gradually come to the top.

It turns out that there are more people who like this style, because "Never Expected" has become a phenomenal hit.

It once set a record of more than 100 million hits in three days and 200 million in seven days, and it is a veritable first-generation online drama.

Later, most of the funny short videos that became popular later continued the creative form of "Never Expected" of "one protagonist + various strange stories", which can be described as the real originator!

[Skit?] ]

A few people in the group didn't expect Pu Tong to have the idea of creating a short drama, although the short drama industry is indeed booming now, but the level is really worrying......

It's not that a few of them are high-minded, but that a few of them, as mature actors, really feel that the current online short dramas are a little out of the stream.

The production cost of short dramas is relatively low, but the returns are relatively high, with low risk and high returns, and the shooting threshold is not high.

The forest is big, and any cat and dog will want to come to get a piece of the pie, and it's only a matter of time before the skit gets better and worse.

[Are you going to shoot the dragon king's son-in-law, I want to play the dragon king!] ]

Xie Mu naturally supports his master unconditionally, and naturally Pu Tong wants to try, so he is definitely the first to cheer.

Since they have all been filmed, he must not shoot the most pretending role?

He wants to play the male protagonist of Shuangwen, and he has no other advantages, but his smile is crooked enough......

[I guess I asked for it.] ]

Chen Siqing sighed, anyway, he has nothing to do now, a short drama is a short drama, it is better than being forgotten by the entertainment industry.

To be honest, everyone has still watched the short drama, in fact, this thing is quite interesting, especially after suddenly brushing it, the contradictory fast-paced story is easy to catch people's attention.

However, if you see too much of this thing, it is easy to get aesthetically fatigued, and it can only be regarded as fast food, and it is not a work of art at all.

The reason for this is nothing more than the plot and rhythm of the short drama itself.

.

Short dramas are generally fast-paced, pursue coolness, and are mostly positioned as dinner dramas, which will not dig deep into the inner world of the characters and the deep meaning behind the story.

A lot of routine plots and character settings may feel good when you watch it for the first time, but if you watch too many similar dramas, it will lack freshness.

As professional actors, they definitely want to act in some classic works that can "leave their names in film history", rather than embarrassing dramas that are only momentarily popular.

But now, they have no other choice, and Chen Siqing and Tang Luocheng believe that the short drama script that Pu Tong took out must be different from the one on the market.

Pu Tong's literary and creative ability is undoubted, even in a new field, they have reason to doubt that he can make a big job.

[It's time to put the skit industry in order!] ]

It is worth mentioning that most of the short dramas have little investment and the quality is uneven. The protagonists of some short dramas are not bad, but the acting skills of the supporting characters are too embarrassing, which makes people very dramatic.

For example, some short dramas are obviously set to be rich people, but because the crew is too poor, they can't keep up with the service, so people can't substitute for them.

The settings are all children of big families, but the service is very worldly, and the top rich still wear this kind of clothes, which is a little cheap!

Since Pu Tong has decided to enter the short drama industry, he must be planning to break through.

As long as the production is well-made, the storyline is vivid, the logic is clear, and the actors' appearance and acting skills are online, although it is a low-cost drama, it has also broken out of its own world by virtue of good reputation.

Just when everyone was imagining the future, Pu Tong's words made them fall into an ice cave in an instant.

[I'm not going to invest a lot of money, just make it or something, just deal with it.] ]

[Isn't my dad a drama manager, let him arrange the props and costumes or something, and the photographer doesn't need too much, just find a few acquaintances.] ]

[Extras or something, just find some college students nearby, I don't feel like the salary is necessary, just tell them to stamp the internship report!] ]

[？ ]

Other short dramas are shoddy, and they still want Pu Tong to do a good job of producing high-quality short dramas, but he doesn't plan to spend money?

I don't plan to invest as much as I want, the costume props staff still want to save money, and this guy can still come up with such a bad trick as opening an internship certificate for college students, isn't this a little too picky?

They didn't expect that Pu Tong suddenly became so picky, and it was a little frustrating to save money!

This drama is definitely the most sloppy episode.

The production of any film and television drama can't avoid the topic of money, and if the input cost is too low, the god-level script can't be filmed.

[Don't worry.] ]

It's really not that Pu Tong is reluctant, but the drama "Never Expected" was originally from the grassroots, and it is visible to the naked eye that he is poor.

But this kind of poor temperament is quite suitable for the plot of Diaosi.

The theme song of this show is very short, with only two lyrics: "I never expected, lalalalala".

At the beginning of the film, the first few episodes were all blindly made up "sponsors", which were spoofs of some news and current events at the time.

Later, when the traffic came up, some people put in advertisements, and they still retained this traditional project and will live at the beginning of the film.

The whole film reveals "poor and no money".

The actors come and go, and they are actually employees of the company.

The special effects are so simple that they can't even reach the level of five cents.

still remembers the first episode, Wang Dazhui is an actor who shoots low-cost martial arts dramas, and his martial arts "Jiuyang Divine Fist" is a simple and crude text special effect. Matched with it is a simpler and cruder Internet meme line.

This undisguised sense of cottage made it possible to save money to the extreme, and Pu Tong laughed on the spot.

But in fact, these poor, ridiculous and nonsensical are precisely the attraction of "Never Expected".

It is precisely because the elements of the play are simple, repetitive and direct, that it can achieve the effect of "brainwashing".
