Chapter 347: New movie, the Spring Festival Gala is here again

After the martial arts trilogy, Long Aotian's funds are extremely sufficient, even if he starts filming five TV series at the same time, he can barely support it.

Zhang Hongwei felt a little worried, but he was very excited, looking at these five martial arts.

He found that "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", "Dragon Babu" and "Deer and Ding" have both scripts and scripts;

However, "Xiao Li Flying Knife" and "Peerless Double Pride" have only and no scripts.

"Why don't these two have scripts?"

Zhang Hongwei asked curiously.

Su Zhe casually explained:

"These two films have a very unique style, and I don't know how to adapt them, so you find some excellent screenwriters to adapt them."

Zhang Hongwei understood, and divided the book into two parts:

"Then let's shoot these three first, and find someone to adapt these two at the same time. By the way, I can't be busy alone, let Dong Wenxue help me. ”

"And Xu Cui, help me bring it." Su Zhe said casually.

Zhang Hongwei nodded, and couldn't help but persuade:

"Mr. Su, are you really not acting?"

"I really don't have much interest, I've been filming martial arts dramas, I'm worried about being stereotyped." Su Zhe didn't say anything to death, and thought, "And you can't just make TV series, you have to prepare movies and prepare for the Spring Festival in advance." ”

With his current appeal, the movie must be placed in the Spring Festival stalls to maximize the box office.

But he can't always rush like filming "Tumor". After all, those high-grossing movies in my memory can't be finished in a month or two.

So if you want to catch up with this year's Spring Festival, you have to start preparing now.

"You also prepared a movie script?" Zhang Hongwei was dumbfounded, completely unimaginable.

Su Zhe waved his hand and said in a low voice:

"Not yet, I'm thinking, what kind of movie do I want to make?"

Zhang Hongwei couldn't help but praise:

"Mr. Su, you can play any type of movie and make money!"

Su Zhe thoughtfully:

"Money-making ......"

He doesn't have enough capital now, and he still has to make money, but he doesn't need to think about the cost anymore, and he doesn't need to consider the box office return ratio.

Choose directly from the highest-grossing movies in your previous life!

Su Zhe immediately calculated-

"Changjin Lake"? If you shoot the main theme, you must have the above checks in the details, otherwise it is easy to make taboos and it is too troublesome to coordinate.

The "Wolf Warrior" series? There are no military relations, put on hold for the time being.

"Li Huanying"? Just copy the work, and it always feels a little strange to recognize other people's mothers. Let's put it aside for now.

The "Wandering Earth" series? It's too much of a test for the director, and he doesn't dare to shoot.

"Detective Chinatown" series?

"Huh, it seems to be okay?" Su Zhe's heart moved, analyzing the potential of this series-

The first is the box office, the total box office of the three films is nearly 9 billion, of which the third part is of high quality, the advertising is disgusting, the box office declined during the mask period, and the strong enemy was encountered when it was released, all of which can get a box office of more than 4.5 billion.

The second is word-of-mouth, one is worse than the other, but there are really many fans, and the amount of discussion is terrifying.

Finally, there is the protagonist, if he plays Qin Feng, there is no doubt about it, it is very suitable.

"This is a hen that lays golden eggs!" The more Su Zhe analyzed, the more excited he became, "After that, I have Jin Gu martial arts in TV series, and Tang Detective universe in movies...... Invincible! ”

As for the problem that word of mouth is worse than the other, Su Zhe thought about it for a moment and said secretly in his heart:

"The first one can be copied directly, this one has the best quality, but the box office is the lowest, but there is no way, after all, it is a pioneering work. However, with my current appeal, the box office must be higher than in my previous life. ”

"Well, the second part, the case is okay (after all, "Double Pupil"), but there are also flaws, especially the inexplicable hackers, which are simply insulting IQ, it's best to find a master to change it."

"Part 3...... Let's find a screenwriter to rewrite it. ”

After Su Zhe thought about it, he said to Zhang Hongwei:

"I plan to make a detective movie, and some plots are inconvenient to happen in China, so I need to go to Southeast Asia to shoot."

"Southeast Asia? That's a lot of investment, right? Zhang Hongwei was a little staggered, and after calculating Long Aotian's funds, he felt a little risky.

He couldn't help but ask:

"Or do you want to be steady? Let's shoot one by one, or pre-sell the TV series. ”

"Don't waste time and seize opportunities." Su Zhe vetoed the first suggestion, but did not veto the second, "You can try pre-sale, but don't compromise the price too much, these TV series are all classics." ”

Zhang Hongwei felt a little difficult:

"But these buyers don't look at the quality, they only look at the actors! If you don't act, the price will be difficult to rise, so you can only find a star to act. ”

"You can find one or two stars, but they must match the characters, otherwise they would rather use newcomers." Su Zhe was very confident, "Remember, no matter who you invite to star, the biggest selling point is me!" ”

The biggest selling point of Jin Yong's adaptation is always Jin Yong!

Zhang Hongwei nodded, gritted his teeth and said:

"Yes, as long as you are the screenwriter, you have never failed!"

He decided to accompany Su Zhe on the adventure, and talked about the movie:

"When are you going to write a movie script? I had to find a producer who was familiar with Southeast Asia and start filming and casting. ”

Tonight......

Su Zhe was afraid of scaring him, so he said for a while:

"The script was written slowly, but this week I was able to come up with an outline, and I could go to the framing and casting. By the way, I have chosen all the leading roles, me, Li Daoqiang, You Mengli, but there are some important supporting roles, and it is very important to choose comedian actors. ”

In Tang Detective 1, Chen He, Xiao Yang, Xiao Shenyang and others performed very well.

Zhang Hongwei understands:

"Okay, I'll contact the actor first."

Su Zhe felt very relaxed, and he gave Zhang Hongwei money just to save himself trouble:

"Mr. Zhang works so hard."

Zhang Hongwei said politely:

"Mr. Su is hard-working, our Long Aotian has invested so much at once, success or failure depends on Ling's script, you are the key!"

Listening to the tone, he was still a little worried.

Su Zhe smiled, didn't explain much, and after sending Zhang Hongwei away, he worked hard at home...... Play games.

After he finished the game, he took out a pen and paper, wrote five words, took a photo and posted it on Weibo:

[A poor screenwriter who rushed to the manuscript overnight. 】

He pretended, but the fans were excited:

["Detective Chinatown"? Brother, are you going to make a detective movie? 】

[I'm looking forward to it! 】

[I can't wait to see it, how do I travel to a year later? 】

[Take a brick, shout hard at your head, successfully travel through a year, fail to travel through another world, absolutely easy to use!] 】

[Brother has worked hard, don't be tired. 】

Su Zhe looked at these comments and was satisfied:

"My fans are so considerate."

Jia Xin was stunned from the sidelines:

Writing a topic in one day is equivalent to creating a new folder for the project, which is also hard?

Su Zhe smiled and explained that this was called "accumulating inspiration", but was interrupted by Yan Xiling's call.

She told Su Zhe that the director of next year's Spring Festival Gala has been decided, called Zhu Jun, who is considered a young faction, and wants to contact Su Zhe as soon as possible, so that he, the "pearl of the Spring Festival Gala", can appear on the Spring Festival Gala.

The Central Taiwan Spring Festival Gala never needs to ask for stars, but Su Zhe was too slapping in the face in the first two years, and he performed a sketch on Chinese New Year's Eve to dominate the hot search.

Now it's almost time for the Spring Festival Gala to choose a show, and Zhu Jun doesn't want to make this kind of joke anymore, so he wants to invite Su Zhe.

But Yan Xiling was worried that Su Zhe had a grudge in her heart, so she didn't dare to agree rashly, so she asked Su Zhe's opinion.

Su Zhe couldn't help but laugh:

"I didn't suffer a loss, how can I complain? And the Spring Festival Gala was invited, and it was not good to refuse. But I have a lot of things to do this year, so I don't have time to rehearse repeatedly, at most once. ”

Yan Xiling understood, and contacted Su Zhe after a while:

"Zhu Jun wants to visit you personally."

Su Zhe couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, compared to the arrogance of the previous director of the Spring Festival Gala, this new director has a bit of a "corporal Lixian" bearing.

- Of course, he is not a "corporal", but in the eyes of directors in the other system, this is probably what it means.

Su Zhe did not let Zhu Jun come to his house to "visit" him, so he chose a private restaurant and invited Zhu Jun to get together.

After Zhu Jun arrived, he was very enthusiastic about Su Zhe and said bluntly:

"Teacher Su, I took over this burden, and I was under a lot of pressure! Last year's Spring Festival Gala had a very bad reputation, and this year it won't work, we're sorry D, I'm sorry for the country, I'm sorry for the people! ”

Su Zhe couldn't help but laugh:

"Director Zhu exaggerated, didn't the official Weibo say last year that 'the Spring Festival Gala was very successful'?"

Zhu Jun sighed:

"Talking to yourself, can you really hide it? The masses are so loud in criticism, can they still cover other people's ears by covering their ears and stealing bells? ”

Su Zhe saw that he was honest and serious, thought about it for a while, and replied cautiously:

"Director Zhu, I'm just a small artist, I don't have enough ability, and I don't know how to do a good job in the Spring Festival Gala. But thanks to the love of fans, the Chinese-style songs launched should be quite appropriate for the Spring Festival Gala. If I want, I can sing a song on the Spring Festival Gala, or I can authorize other stars to sing it. ”

"Thank you Mr. Su for your support!" Zhu Jun praised excitedly, "You are too modest, if the Chinese-style songs are not on the Spring Festival Gala, it will be a pity for the Spring Festival Gala and a regret for the people of the whole country!" ”

Su Zhe didn't want to be wearing a high hat all the time, and also put forward his own requirements:

"Director Zhu, I will shoot five TV series and one movie next, and the movie will be filmed in Southeast Asia, and my energy is limited, but as long as you choose a good song, no matter how busy I am, I can come to a rehearsal once."

Low EQ: I'm too busy, rehearsal at most;

High emotional intelligence: No matter how busy you are, come to rehearsal once.

Zhu Jun was very courageous, gritted his teeth and agreed.

Su Zhe suddenly thought of something, and made another request:

"By the way, I don't lip-sync, I don't lip-sync, I have to open the microphone and sing really."

Zhu Jun was frightened by this condition, and couldn't help but persuade:

"No, you haven't been to the Spring Festival Gala and don't know, the pressure on the scene is very high, many celebrities can't stand it, it's easy to go out of tune. In case of a mistake and disgrace in front of the people of the whole country, it is a ZZ mistake! ”

Su Zhe didn't like singers lip-syncing, but when he heard his words, he hesitated.

The live broadcast in front of the people of the whole country, maybe there are big leaders to watch, it is indeed very stressful.

His psychological quality is not bad, otherwise he wouldn't be a star, but the pressure of the Spring Festival Gala is really different from other stages.

In his previous life, Uncle Benshan was the king of sketches, and he would feel nervous in the Spring Festival Gala, not to mention his raw melon eggs?

"But isn't there a shame in lip-syncing?" Su Zhe couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it the biggest shame to not even dare to sing?" ”

"The audience has long been used to it." Zhu Jun continued to persuade, "There's no need to take risks. ”

Su Zhe was silent:

Is it right to get used to it?

He didn't ask the question, but replied firmly:

"Director Zhu, I am a singer, and not lip-syncing is my most basic professional ethics. If you don't believe me, I can license it to the Spring Festival Gala for free, and you can find any star you want to lip-sync. ”

Zhu Jun was speechless.

Yan Xiling hurriedly played a round:

"Director Zhu, don't be angry. Artists have their own insistences in this way. ”

Zhu Jun was not angry, but showed a trace of shame, hesitated for a long time, did not mention the song again, but mentioned the sketch:

"Teacher Su, can you provide a language program?"

Seeing that he refused his request not to lip-synch, Su Zhe felt a little contempt and irritability in his heart, and blurted out:

"Sketch? I'm sorry, I don't write sketches that aren't funny. ”

Zhu Jun: ......

Yan Xiling: ......

You're too slap in the face, aren't you?

Zhu Jun smiled bitterly:

"I also hope that the language programs of the Spring Festival Gala will be funny."

When Su Zhe heard this, he couldn't help it, and complained:

"This burden is good, it's funnier than the Spring Festival Gala sketches combined."

Two people: ......

You're complaining too hard!

There is no way, Su Zhe is really resentful.

Regardless of the past and present life, the most disgusting thing about the Spring Festival Gala is the language program!

It's getting worse and worse, and I'm still holding back my energy to educate the people of the whole country.

According to Uncle Benshan's words, the masses have worked hard for a year, and they have received education for 364 days, so they want to relax and laugh on Chinese New Year's Eve?

And the sketch actor is not an educator, why should he educate the people of the whole country!

Zhu Jun was very helpless, but he wanted to revive the Spring Festival Gala sketches, and tried to persuade him:

"Teacher Su, in fact, the Spring Festival Gala has never asked that the sketches are not funny. I also hope you can write a funny sketch that will make the crowd laugh! ”

Su Zhe didn't want to complain, so he communicated with him in a real way:

"Can I satirize the ugliness of reality?"

"Nope." Zhu Jun shook his head, his attitude was very resolute, "We must focus on praise." ”

Su Zhe pursed his lips and continued to ask:

"Like "Idol Waiter", can't you satirize the fandom?"

Zhu Jun reminds:

"It's ironic, it's funny. But at the end, it must be mentioned that after the Clear L operation, there is no such phenomenon anymore, thanks to ......"

"Stop!" Su Zhe was helpless, "The ending of the sketch is very important, no matter how funny the front is, if the ending is very bad, the last impression left on them is embarrassment." ”

He kind of got it:

"Of course, the Spring Festival Gala does not stipulate that the sketch must not be funny. But there are too many rules and regulations, how can it be funny? ”

"Isn't there the best of both worlds? It's funny, it's educational, and it doesn't offend anyone. ”

Zhu Jun seemed to be making a wish, or a prayer.

Su Zhe sighed:

"Then let's not make the sketch funny. Laughing out loud in class is too disrespectful. ”

He ridiculed the Spring Festival Gala as a classroom, but Zhu Jun couldn't refute it at all.

Su Zhe got up and said goodbye:

"Director Zhu, I understand your difficulties, it is indeed difficult to do. You also understand me, I'm not a sketch actor, why bother to perform a funny sketch in the Spring Festival Gala to block the audience? Let's just talk about singing, you think about my suggestion. ”
