Chapter 19: The Drama Critic

'98, early winter, 8:50 a.m.

"Captain, do we have to get up so early to watch TV? I'm so sleepy. ”

The one who spoke was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with a cartoon cartoon character of a cat on it, but because the figure on tiptoe could not be seen, the cat's face was a little expanded, and it could also be for this reason, the white short-sleeved shirt worn on the body was one size larger, and there was a pair of shorts that were almost invisible, and it was possible to see such a refreshing/cool dress in early winter, I have to say that heating is really a great invention.

"A must-see." Jiang Xuan'er sat on the sofa, wearing the same clothes as Li Aijing, the effect was very different, she said affirmatively.

She looked at Li Aijing, who came in a daze: "Have you forgotten who wrote the title song I said?" This is the TV series he wrote, you must support it when you have time, and the producer is also the boss's best friend, haven't you seen it too? I missed the premiere because of dance practice, so I can't stop watching it on this vacation. ”

Jiang Xuan'er is a serious person, she has plans for many things, she will definitely remember that someone treats her well, she thinks that she is already a very lucky person, and she must know how to be grateful, which is why she was elected captain.

"I remember, I came to see us dance with my boss that day, and the screenwriter was so young and handsome." Li Aijing came to the sofa, lying on Jiang Xuan'er, looking for a comfortable position, raised her head slightly when she heard her words, and remembered some important points in her memory.

"What do you remember in your head, I told you last week that you were going to watch a drama today, why did you say you forgot this morning, and, don't lie on my stomach/On me, don't you know how heavy your two water balloons weigh?"

Jiang Xuan'er and Li Aijing lived in the same room, and the other two members of Miss lived next door, and she had already called her up and pulled them to the TV.

Normally, there are many dormitories for men's and women's groups, and they will be a large room for each group, and they are divided into two rooms, mainly because Galaxy Entertainment Company did not plan men's and women's groups at the beginning, so most of the rooms are one-bedroom and two-room dormitories, and there are rooms that do not let them have to squeeze together, so let the two of them live in one set and live separately.

"But people like the captain." Li Aijing shook her body.

Jiang Xuan'er reflexively dominated: "TV is about to start, don't make trouble." ”

However, her words had no deterrent effect on Li Aijing at all, and Li Aijing was already lying on the sofa, and Li Aijing did not let go very consciously.

"You brought it on yourself." Jiang Xuan'er pulled out two hands and attacked the itchy areas on her body.

Li Aijing was scratched to the itch, her body kept shaking/moving slightly, and she grabbed Jiang Xuan'er's hand while begging for mercy.

"I was wrong, Captain, haha."

"Hmph, look at your old old dishonesty in the morning." Jiang Xuan'er smiled triumphantly, then went to get the remote control and turned on the TV, ignoring Li Aijing who was lying still.

"Xuan'er, you can't do this to me, don't you say that you won't scratch me." Li Aijing was even more lazy lying on the sofa.

………………

Same sky, same time.

Park In-joon sat on the sofa with a cup of American coffee, looked at the line "9:00-10:00, "Blue Life and Death Love" on the program schedule, and scratched his head in some distress.

He is a "drama critic", or a film critic, but his job is mainly to comment on TV dramas in newspapers and rate dramas, which has little to do with movies.

This work is still quite important, and the chain of contempt in the entertainment industry in normal countries is like this: movies look down on TV series, TV series look down on cartoons, and then these three look down on variety shows and idols together.

The TV series he works for ranks second in the industry, and it is not low.

However, there are classifications in the entertainment industry, and they also have drama critics, and experienced drama critics who work long hours are responsible for the hit dramas broadcast in prime time. The rest is to be in charge of the morning drama or, worse, the late-night drama.

He has also just been transferred to the morning drama, although he has not been a drama critic for a long time, but his luck is good, a group of newcomers have come recently, and he has also risen a little bit and moved from the late-night drama to the morning drama.

The workstation was adjusted, and his sleep should also be adjusted, from going to bed late to getting up early, today is the first day to work in the morning, he made a cup of coffee to refresh himself.

His work mainly revolves around the TV series, briefly explaining the plot of the series in the newspaper, and making a relatively professional evaluation, and conducting a certain in-depth interpretation, so as to facilitate the audience to determine whether to follow the drama or not.

In the era of lack of Internet interaction, his work is still very important, and it is also one of the important contents of the family entertainment section of the newspaper, second only to the blockbuster news such as a celebrity's split.

In a few years, the rise of computers will not have a devastating impact on newspapers, but the advent of smartphones will change the way journalists work.

He doesn't know much about the drama he wants to watch, the first three episodes were broadcast last week, and he was only promoted yesterday, and the person who started to be responsible for it also resigned, and he didn't have time to rent the recording of the first three episodes of Blue Life and Death Love in the company, so he could only watch it from the fourth episode.

He sat on the couch, took a sip of coffee, watched the TV shopping show, waited for the time, and was getting ready for work.

With the flow of time, the TV series began, and the theme song was ordinary, was the budget really low? However, this doesn't have much impact, and the cold country is not like this book has strict requirements for the theme song.

If it's a book, whether it's an anime or a song at the beginning of the movie, it's an important criterion, and this one alone can be seen to be unqualified, but it's not a big production here in Hanguo, and few people care about the theme song.

However, he still picked up the pen and wrote down his evaluation of the theme song in his shorthand book: the opening song is average.

I remember this because after the broadcast, both the sound and the picture are things that the critics evaluate, and the more I remember it now, the easier it will be when writing the script.

Park In-joon watched the TV seriously, with the broadcast of the plot, he felt that this TV series was a bit unexpected to him, he didn't expect that this TV series that was said to be made by the rookie creative team, whether it was the plot, the shooting pictures and the acting skills of the actors, he was deeply attracted to him.

Such a well-made production is better than many prime-time TV series, he began to think that he must have come to the morning drama to watch some parents' short time, this TV series is not, and he also watched it deeply with Song's beautiful acting skills.

It wasn't until the advertisement came out that he came back to his senses and saw the book with only one line of words, and then he remembered that he hadn't written anything yet.

But it doesn't matter, he's already recorded it in advance, and I'm going to borrow the first few episodes and watch it again, such a good TV series has come across, and I have to write it well, and I can't curse like a late-night drama.

…………

The other side.

Jiang Xuan'er and Li Ai sat together and discussed from time to time.

They didn't expect this drama to be so good-looking, music creation is easy to produce young geniuses, but there are very few TV series and movies, which requires not only inspiration, but also the accumulation of life.

They didn't have a lot of hope when they started watching it, but they came to support the TV series made by people who were helpful to them, and now they are watching the trailer, and the ups and downs of the plot behind make them want to continue watching.

"Gone? Gone today? Li Aijing looked at the advertisement on the air, this is the second time they have watched the advertisement today, according to the broadcast, today's episode has ended: "I look at the trailer and it seems that another boy and the heroine are together, what's going on, I really want to know." ”

"Then you'll wake up early tomorrow."

"Why is it broadcast in the morning, it's too painful." Li Aijing fell back on the backrest, her face very tangled.
