There is a gap between online dramas and TV dramas.

The gap lies in the lineup, in the production.

When Lin Xing went to play the drama "Portrait Seeking the Murderer", Ren Yi felt a little incomprehensible, and now "Sweeping the Black Waves" has made Lin Xing recognized by the industry, how can he still act in an online drama? ?

"Which web drama??"

Zheng Zhou asked with some curiosity.

Lin Xing smiled: "At present, it's just a book, the other party hasn't prepared it yet, it was handed over by Panda Video, I just think the script is okay." ”

"Male number one??"

Zheng Zhou asked suddenly.

Lin Xingdao: "Well, theoretically, it should be regarded as a male one." ”

"It's fine."

Zheng Zhou said with a smile: "Ren Yi, the current online drama production is getting better and better, and maybe the online drama was not as good as the TV series before, but now the online drama and the TV series are not much different, and it is normal for Ah Xing to choose the online drama to be the male number one." ”

Obviously, Zheng Zhou thought that Lin Xing was too anxious.

"Portrait Murder" is the male number one, and now the panda video hands a book that I don't know what it is and the male number one.

Isn't this anxious what??

obviously has a certain reputation in "Sweeping the Black Waves", and his acting skills are also recognized by the industry, Zheng Zhou thinks that if Lin Xing accumulates a lot, it is impossible for him to take a TV series male lead.

Just in such a hurry??

Zheng Zhou has seen too many young people lose their square inches as soon as they catch fire, and even just think about killing chickens and taking eggs, originally Zheng Zhou thought that Lin Xing would be different.

Now it seems, it's the same.

The people present were all human spirits, and when Lin Xing had already decided to take over the play, everyone naturally wouldn't persuade anything more.

Two hours later, the meal was over.

"Ah Xing, listen to me, you must be cautious, cautious, and cautious in choosing dramas, you finally have a certain popularity now, don't squander your popularity."

Before Ren Yi left, he persuaded Lin Xing: "I told you before. The position is not important, what really matters is the energy of the character, just like Du Fei you played in "Just to Wait for You", although there are not many scenes, but it is bright enough......"

Lin Xing understood that Ren Yi was all from the bottom of his heart.

That's what a true friend is.

Look at Zheng Zhou again, it's almost a dinner friend, everyone takes what they need.

As for Guan Peng, he also wanted to persuade Lin Xing, he felt that Lin Xing was obviously very stable before, why did he suddenly become anxious???

"Brother Guan, don't worry, I know it."

Lin Xing smiled: "I won't joke about my hard-won reputation." ”

"That's good."

Guan Peng was relieved when he heard Lin Xing say this.

He was really worried that Lin Xing cared too much about this so-called position, so he made a stupid move.

After all, there are too few online dramas that have become popular, and only TV dramas can really bring dividends to actors.

Just like "Just to Wait for You" and "Sweeping the Black Waves" brought Lin Xing's character dividends.

Just like "Learning from Dad and Mom" brought Guan Peng's role dividends.

"It's not optimistic."

Lin Xing shook his head slightly on the way back.

He knows that the industry has a certain contempt for online dramas, just like movie cafes can't watch TV drama cafes at the beginning.

But what happened next??

The movie café didn't go down to the earth to act in a TV series, and then one by one basically appeared in its original form.

Who is nobler than whom??

The same is true for online dramas, the current online dramas belong to a period of rapid development, and the quality of some online dramas is gradually moving towards high-quality products, and the once shoddy online dramas are gradually being eliminated.

Lin Xing believes that in another year or two, online dramas can also be canonized.

Back home, Lin Xing glanced at the discussion on the Internet, and sure enough, the popularity of "Portrait Murder" has really dropped too much.

In addition to the hot search bought, many people don't seem to be interested in the web drama "Portrait Hunting the Murderer" at all.

"How did you promote this drama when you saw it?"

Lin Xing said with a sigh.

It's really hard for a small-production, low-budget online drama to get attention.

Not to mention "Portrait Seeking the Murderer", even "Evil Child" is in preparation.

Panda Video wants to be a suspense market, but their control over the cost is extremely high, otherwise they would not have cut all the previous content parts.

In order to reduce costs.

Therefore, Deng Ying, the new boss of Panda Video's content department, wants to win by quality.

Script is king.

This is a must, and many TV series fail to hit the street mainly because they are defeated in the script.

Secondly, Deng Ying is ready to start with suspense, and several other video websites currently do not have a channel dedicated to suspense theaters.

Since this is the case, Deng Ying simply opened up a suspense theater.

In the first drama, he directly made a suspense drama, and more importantly, in order to reduce costs, or in order to make the drama a good drama, he was ready to further reduce the drama.

20 episodes is quite few now, if you look at "Sweeping the Black Waves", everyone is still unfinished with all kinds of unfinished 20 episodes, and it has even been over for more than ten days, and some people have expressed their hope that a second season can be filmed.

In short, everyone really likes the 20 episodes of "Sweeping the Black Waves", and everyone feels that it is not enjoyable after watching it in one go.

Like many TV series, there are more than 50 episodes at every turn, and some special ones are as high as more than 70 episodes, and the audience sees half of them watching eunuchs.

Although it has been better in the past two years, some TV series still have 40 episodes at every turn, that is, even if you watch less of the middle episodes, you will continue to watch it without affecting the plot at all.

Why is everyone watching TV series at double speed and triple speed? ?

Isn't it because the current TV series are getting more and more watery?

For this reason, Deng Ying thinks that since he is doing a suspense drama, he must make it fast-paced and compact, not the kind of slow or even two or three episodes that don't get into the main topic.

12 episodes.

Deng Ying, the script of "Evil Child", was selected after a lot of selection, and he felt that this script was very in line with his own considerations.

The script is there, and in terms of actors, Deng Ying is ready to choose those who have acting skills, and the most important thing is to have both acting skills and appeal.

So he handed over the script to most of the actors who met.

Some traffic artists with obvious scumbag acting skills Deng Ying gave up directly, even if these traffic artists spend money to get on, Deng Ying will not agree.

However, it is really not easy for this script to invite real artists who have both word-of-mouth, acting skills and traffic to act.

Online dramas have never been looked at by first-line actors.

What's more, they can't afford to hire a front-line.

Deng Ying has a certain amount of confidence about the script, he can only cast a wide net if he thinks about it, first trick the actors in, and then communicate with the actors when he goes back.

After knowing that Lin Xing was interested in "Evil Child", Deng Ying was really happy, and he chatted with Lin Xing's agent, Sister Dao.

But I always feel that the other party doesn't seem to trust me.

Or that the agent thinks he's painting pies.

Especially when Deng Ying said that the director of "Evil Child" was Lan Lei, Sister Dao completely regarded him as a liar.

"I'm serious."

Deng Ying said to Sister Dao: "Although this Lan Lei has no experience, he is very good at suspense, I think ......"

"Okay, Mr. Deng, I believe in your sincerity, but I still have to go back and discuss with Mr. Lin."

This is what Sister Dao said before leaving.

Then he lost contact for several days.

Originally, Deng Ying thought that Lin Xing might have given up on this drama, but what he didn't expect was that Lin Xing would take the initiative to ask them to meet today.

"Mr. Deng, do you think Lin Xing can act?"

Lan Lei asked with some disbelieving.

"I don't know."

Deng Ying shook his head slightly: "But after a while, we must show sincerity, the most important thing is to let Lin Xing see that our script can really be ......"

Lan Lei is actually not very confident.

The book "Evil Child" is really good, Lan Lei himself can have the opportunity to direct, he is really excited to have a good night's sleep for several nights, and there is also the screenwriter of "Evil Child" Ting Hai.

Ting Hai is a rookie screenwriter, he saw the suspense script collected by Panda Video before he voted for the first three episodes of "Evil Child", and then he was shortlisted, so he wrote the next 9 episodes.

This is the first time Ting Hai has written a script, and he was not surprised when he saw that it was Lan Lei directing, after all, it would be strange if such a small book really invited the director.

However, when he knew that Lin Xing might participate in the show, Tinghai was stunned.

Fake it.

Although Lin Xing is far from being on the front line, let alone hot, he has fully proved himself with the drama "Sweeping the Black Waves", and more importantly, Zu Ming praised Lin Xing.

Isn't it the number one male in the TV series if people act in dramas in the future?

How is it possible to play such a role?

And this character is also relatively dark, and at the same time, it is more likely to have some impact on Lin Xing's image.

"Tinghai, you will mainly talk to Lin Xing about the script for a while."

Deng Ying said to Ting Hai: "I'll tell you, whether you can let Lin Xing participate in the show depends mainly on today." ”

Half an hour later, Lin Xing came to Panda Video accompanied by Sister Dao.

Along the way, Sister Dao is a bitter woman.

She thinks that Lin Xing doesn't need to run in person, and more importantly, Sister Dao has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and she understands too well that a good script does not mean that the finished film is good.

You must know that the script can determine the lower limit of a play, but the director, producer, and actors are the ones who really determine the upper limit of a play.

There are also clips at the back.

If there is, it will be announced.

A good publicity can save a drama, and a bad publicity can make the audience beat to death.

"Ah Xing, you will understand why I said this after a while."

After Sister Dao arrived at Panda Frequency, she said the last word to Lin Xing, and then she didn't persuade anymore.

The next step is to be consistent.

"Hello Mr. Lin, I'm Deng Ying, the director of the Panda Video Content Department......"

Deng Ying sighed secretly in his heart when he saw Lin Xing.

Sure enough, it's handsome.

To be honest, such a person is not necessarily suitable.

Because it's so handsome.

"Mr. Lin, let me introduce to you, this is Ting Sheng, the screenwriter of "Evil Child", this script is his original script, this is the director of "Evil Child" Lan Lei......"

Deng Ying suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and he introduced to Lin Xing with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Lin."

Ting Sheng and Lan Lei hurriedly said to Lin Xing.

The two newcomers looked a little cramped in front of Lin Xing.

"Mr. Deng, I'll get straight to the point."

Lin Xing didn't talk nonsense, he said directly: "I'm quite interested in the script, and I'm also willing to participate in the role of this math teacher, so I have a few questions I want to ask you." ”

Deng Ying hurriedly said, "Okay, you say." ”

"This script is sure that there are only 12 episodes, right??"

Lin Xing asked the first question: "I have read the current script, both the characters and the plot are very good, so I want to ask if there are any changes to the script in the later stage??" ”

"No, we are doing suspense dramas this time to make them high-quality."

Deng Ying said with a smile: "Since you want to make a high-quality product, it is naturally impossible to have too many episodes, and when I was soliciting scripts before, I only solicited short dramas." ”

Speaking of this, Deng Ying paused and said: "But Mr. Lin, if you are really sure to participate, then we can discuss some plots when filming, if you have any opinions, then we will take your opinions as the standard, if you think your character is bald, you think this character is too tragic, and you want another emotional line, then ......"

"No, you don't."

Lin Xing suddenly interrupted Deng Ying and said: "Mr. Deng, my last play was "Portrait Seeking the Murderer", this drama is also an online drama, I don't know if you know the producer of this drama, Marven?" ”

Deng Ying was stunned: "I really don't know, but I can know if you think it's necessary." ”

Lin Xing smiled a little bitterly.

Sure enough, being a producer is really the main one who can bend and stretch.

This Deng Ying and Marven are really doing the same thing.

So Lin Xing could only express his attitude: "You misunderstood what I meant, I mean I told Marven before I filmed "Portrait of the Murderer", I won't ask for additional drama, because if the additional drama will destroy the original structure of the script, especially the emotional drama, if "Evil Child" really adds an emotional line to this math teacher, then don't you think it's bloody?? ”

"Teacher Lin is right."

Ting Hai said suddenly: "Now some TV dramas are all plots that rely on emotional lines to push, as if all walks of life are either in love, or cheating and playing the junior, or under the banner of 'feminism', the heroine and the mistress join forces to fight the scumbag......"

Boy.

This Tinghai didn't watch any less TV series at first glance.

These complaints are very accurate and in place.

"Yes, Mr. Tinghai is right."

Lin Xing nodded lightly: "So I won't ask to change the play, but at the same time, I hope you don't change the script easily, the script can't be moved, you can modify it slightly, but you definitely can't change it big." ”

In this sentence, Lin Xing said exactly the same thing when he was filming "Portrait Seeking the Murderer".

The scene really reappeared.

"Teacher Lin, you can call me Tinghai, I don't dare to call me a teacher in front of you."

Ting Hai said with some flattery.

He didn't like Lin Xing very much before "Sweeping the Black Waves", he felt that Lin Xing was a lucky person, a lucky person with a face that captivated the country and the city.

Such a person playing a domineering president is of course easy to attract fans.

God is fair, when he gives such a face to such a person, then he will definitely take something away from him.

As a result, Ting Hai never expected that Lin Xing's performance in "Sweeping the Black Waves" shocked him.

What's more, Tinghai is Zuming's iron fan.

Because Ting Hai has always regarded Zu Ming as his idol, he has always felt that what he needs in domestic entertainment now is not a two-faced or even unprincipled director like Kong Yi.

What domestic entertainment needs now is a director like Zu Ming who adheres to his own principles and insists on filming according to his own ideas.

But such a person praised Lin Xing a lot.

This shows that Lin Xing is capable.

And it's extremely capable.

Looking at Lin Xing's performance in the last episode of "Sweeping the Black Waves", Ting Hai feels that Lin Xing doesn't say that he is a god, at least it's okay to be a king.

At that time, Ting Hai also complained in his circle of friends.

Is it the god who put away Lin Xing's appendix?

This is so handsome, and his acting skills are good.

There is no fairness at all.

But now, Lin Xing was sitting in front of him, even though he had been chatting for more than half an hour, Ting Hai still felt unreal, quite unreal.

What's more important is how dare he call a teacher in front of Lin Xing.

"Hehe, in my opinion, you have written such a realistic and suspenseful script as "Evil Child", and you deserve to be called a teacher by me."

Lin Xing smiled, then he turned to Deng Ying and continued to ask, "So Mr. Deng, what is the current progress of this script?" Are the actors all finalized or not yet? ”

"Teacher Lin, in fact, we have already finalized the candidates for the three children, after I determined the script, I have quietly auditioned thousands of children from all over the country, and at the same time found child stars from the entertainment industry to try the play, and finally found three suitable ones, and these three children have been following the acting teacher I found in class......"

Deng Ying hurriedly said: "As for the other actors, the actresses have basically been determined, but the male actors have not yet been determined. ”

"Oh."

Lin Xing said and stood up: "Since this is the case, then let's do it as soon as possible, remember to inform me when the preparations are ready......"

"Huh? Mr. Lin, this ......"

"Happy working together!"

Lin Xing stretched out his hand and stretched out his hand towards Deng Ying.

This made Deng Ying stunned for three seconds, and then he laughed: "Happy cooperation!" ”

"Mr. Lin, can I take a photo with you?"

Tingsheng suddenly asked a little weakly at this time.

"No problem."

Lin Xing said.

As for Lan Lei, he also took a photo with Lin Xing.

Later, Deng Ying proposed: "Why don't you three take a group photo!" ”

The next step is for Sister Dao to be in charge of signing the contract.

"I knew, I knew I was talking about nothing."

Sister Dao said helplessly at this time: "But Ah Xing, do you really have confidence in such a grass platform team?" ”

"You'll have to give it a try."

Lin Xing said with a smile: "When a drama is not filmed, then no one knows how, but as an actor, you still have to dare to take risks, otherwise you may not be able to fail if you stand still and only shoot steadily, then you may not be able to fail, but it is absolutely impossible to explode." ”

Although Sister Dao thinks what Lin Xing said makes sense, after all, many popular dramas in the industry are often not taken seriously at the beginning.

But if everyone has high hopes from the beginning, you can go and see it, there is one to say the other, and the whole is on the street.

Just when Sister Dao went to sign the contract, Lin Xing said to Deng Ying: "Mr. Deng, have you decided on the role of Ding Heping? ?" ”

Deng Ying shook his head: "Not yet, Mr. Lin, do you have a suitable candidate?" ”

"If not, when are you going to audition? I have a suitable candidate, and I think he can play the depth of Ding Heping's role......"

Lin Xing said with a smile: "Of course, I'm not interfering in your casting, I just want you to have a chance, and you will decide after you audition or not." ”

"No, Mr. Lin, the one you choose must be fine......"

Deng Ying hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You ask him to contact me, and then just sign the contract directly." ”

Lin Xing: "??? ”

You don't have to.

If today he stuffed a role Deng Ying and said that it was no problem, then tomorrow someone else stuffed a role Deng Ying also said that it was no problem? ? ?

Isn't that a mess when you turn around??

"Mr. Deng, I hope that everyone will work together to make this drama a high-quality product, otherwise I won't come to talk to you in person, so I hope everyone pays attention to ......"

When Lin Xing said that he tried not to let people go through the back door, Deng Ying's expression was a little strange.

"Teacher Lin, don't worry, I must put acting first."

Deng Ying didn't say anything about going through the back door.

In his opinion, it is normal for a drama to go through the back door, and how many directors often like to go through the back door.

As long as the acting skills are okay.

"Mr. Lin, because you have a strong understanding of characters, I believe you ......"

Deng Ying explained why he said just now that Lin Xingyi said that he felt that he didn't need to audition, so he agreed.

Because he had already learned some of Lin Xing's abilities from the circle.

This is the entertainment industry, often whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, it spreads quite quickly.

Many times, the crew has no secrets.

Why so many glow-in-the-dark scripts?

"But it's time to audition."

Lin Xing doesn't ask for any treatment for himself, and he doesn't like to go through the back door either.

At the beginning, Feng Gang could introduce himself to a chance, but now Lin Xing is also introducing a friend to a chance.

And that's all.

When the opportunity comes, whether you can grasp it or not depends on the individual.

1 hour later, Lin Xing and Sister Dao left Panda Video.

"Ah Xing, do you need to take another play??"

Sister Dao thought for a while and said, "I support you if you want to transform, but are we going to take over another idol drama?" ”

"I was trying to tell you......"

Lin Xing said and said what Zheng Zhou talked about yesterday: "You can talk to them for the rest, I only recorded two episodes, and I won't record more than I can, and I am not suitable for more variety shows at present." ”

"Yes, okay."

Sister Dao smiled a little wryly: "That idol drama seems to be unsuccessful, and when "Evil Child" is broadcast, I think I can say goodbye to idol dramas completely." ”
