Chapter 381: Female Audience Market!
Kyushu martial arts fever!
To be honest, in his previous life, Lin Qiu had never experienced that era of madness for martial arts.
When Lin Qiu was young, the overall martial arts in China had gradually declined, which was quite a pity.
But in this world, this regret is remedied.
Since the release of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", not only the enthusiasm for martial arts in Xiazhou has been unprecedentedly high, but even the sales of martial arts in the Kyushu market have reached an astonishing level.
Whether it is in the past life or in this life, these Kyushu audiences and readers are not interested in many Xiazhou's local styles, but martial arts are not!
Xizhou, Yingzhou, Mizhou......
Readers from all over the world have set off a wave of Xiazhou martial arts craze, very interested in Xiazhou kung fu, not only there are many Kyushu readers to understand the culture of Xiazhou, but also a large number of Kyushu tourists, to Xiazhou tourism.
For a long time, Xiazhou has not belonged to a focus in Kyushu, but the appearance of the old thief and Lin Qiu has completely displayed the charm of Xiazhou culture in front of the people of Kyushu.
In terms of martial arts culture alone, it can probably be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period at the earliest.
The chivalry in martial arts culture is divided into different cultural concepts according to their performance:
Confucianism that focuses on the Confucian system, Buddhism that embodies Buddhism, and Taoism and even Wuxia who have no tendencies, etc.
These classifications are actually reflected in the stories of "Shooting the Condor" and "The Condor".
As for the people of Xiazhou, they already have a deep national plot for martial arts culture!
The chivalrous morality preached in martial arts culture has won the hearts of the people.
So there is a situation, that is, younger readers like "The Condor Heroes" more, and they like Yang Guo Xiaolongnu's love even more, but some older audiences like Guo Jing more, the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people!
Looking at Guo Jing and Yang Guo, these heroes, are happy and vengeful in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, so they are not sluggish, and readers seem to be in their time, pursuing not only the story, not just the plot, but the spiritual satisfaction.
And this spirit in martial arts has actually been passed down to real life, such as the brotherhood of friendship and righteousness!
There is also a sense of family and country for the country and the people!
"Rob the rich and help the poor!"
"Eliminate violence and peace!"
"The Great One of Heroes!"
"For the country and for the people!"
……
Throughout the Xiazhou Internet, comments on "Condor" and martial arts abound.
Almost all the authors in the martial arts circle have posted long articles, and each one can't help but read it word by word, as if they can feel the excitement from these martial arts authors from these words.
The old thief has brought too much to the world of martial arts.
brought enough to be recorded in the history of Xiazhou's martial arts, the most dazzling work.
It brings a break from secular concepts and an eclectic way of writing.
It has also brought so much attention and martial arts readers, this kind of character, even if there is no way to consult with him face-to-face, the admiration is really like a surging river.
You must know that the authors and readers who can always adhere to the field of martial arts are passionate from the heart.
A week after the release of "The Condor Heroes", the afterglow is still not gone.
Many martial arts authors have got a lot of inspiration from it and started to create new martial arts, and they are also looking forward to the last work of this martial arts trilogy - "Heaven and Dragon Slayer"!
……
Regarding "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", this work, in fact, was quite widely disseminated in the previous life.
The most important reason is because the circulation of the 03 version of the "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" TV series is a product of Lin Qiu's youth, whether it is Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo and other roles, they are all deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The difference with the timeline of the second "Condor" is that "Condor" is actually a sequel after "Shooting the Condor", and "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is based on Zhu Yuanzhang's unveiling of the rod and the establishment of the Ming Dynasty as the background, which is the background of the rise and fall of the Yuan Dynasty in history.
The Yuan Dynasty was established in 1271 and died in 1368, less than a hundred years, which was quite short.
And the period of the Battle of Xiangyang City in "The Condor Heroes" was about 1259, that is, at the end of the Song Dynasty.
Zhang Wuji was born in about 1338, and it was only around 1360 that the complete story line of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" ended.
Such a background is obviously very different from the previous two.
This avoids a major reading flaw in the sequel, which is the sense of expectation and the shaping of the worldview.
In "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", while connecting with the previous work, a new river and lake have been created.
Emei faction, Shaolin faction, Kongtong faction, Kunlun faction, Huashan faction, Wudang faction and other familiar names will be presented in front of the readers' eyes.
The character of Zhang Wuji has always been a more complex character, which is very different from Guo Jing and Yang Guo.
Three books, three protagonists, three personalities.
This martial arts trilogy was destined to be a classic the moment it was written.
……
Rice State.
The crew of "Manchester by the Sea" is in full swing, in this movie, there are four main characters, the protagonist Lee, his wife Randy, and his brother Joe, the protagonist's nephew, also Joe's son Patrick.
has key scenes and extremely high acting requirements, which are the two roles of Lee and Patrick.
After a month or so of precipitation, Blatter has completely adjusted his condition and is an extremely good actor.
For the role of Patrick, Lin Qiu chose a young actor who was only twenty years old and made a name for himself in Mizhou, Ethan.
It's just that the first scene, without Ethan's play, is Blatter's one-man show.
"Blatter, are you ready?"
"Whew! No problem! ”
Blatter blew his own cold air and said towards Lin Qiu.
The place they are filming now is not in Manchester by the sea, but in a small town in the north of the state, where the sky is drifting with snowflakes.
At the beginning of the story, it tells the story of the male protagonist Li who lives in the city, is a decadent cleaner who lives in a mess, and receives the plot of his brother Joe's sudden death from a heart attack.
The male protagonist Li lives in a mess, bitter and hateful, and there is basically no smile on his face.
After the filming of the movie began, Blatter quickly found his state, even shoveling snow in the snow and wielding a sled, he could feel the sense of decadence from his body.
Looking at Blatter in the camera, Lin Qiu and several members of the director team around him all looked at each other and smiled, shaking their heads while showing a smile.
A good actor doesn't need too many lines at all.
Between a few actions, the character's personality is perfectly interpreted.
In the camera, Li is like a man who is outside this world, he loves to ignore anyone, cherishes words like gold, and doesn't even bother to speak, and in the process of filming the brawl scene, Li is even more irritable and irritable, and he doesn't care how much other people's fists bring to himself!
"There is no greater mourning than death."
Even if there is no so-called flashback of memory, Lin Qiu can feel the unique temperament on Blatter's body.
Until, Lee heard the news of his brother's death.
“Action!!”
Lin Qiu gave an order, and the crew immediately operated.
Blatter, who was shoveling snow, had a mobile phone in his pocket and jingled the bell.
"Hello, I'm Lee."
"Well, got it, when did it happen?"
"How is he now?"
"No...... Don't do it......"
There was a hint of crying in Blatter's voice.
Even if the content of the other phone call is not filmed, as an audience, you can imagine it.
"Click-"
“Nice!”
……
"Manchester by the Sea" officially started filming, and the filming cycle of the movie is generally not very different from the estimated time, unless there is a problem with the actors.
Although Blatter's appearance is not outstanding among a group of well-known young actors in Kyushu, he is a real genius actor.
Facing the camera, there is no sluggishness and deliberateness, and it is natural.
Generally, old drama bones have enough life experience, and they will only have this state after spending most of their lives.
To be able to meditate and enter the drama in your youth, which is probably the most proud stage of your life, is actually quite difficult.
In "Manchester by the Sea", there are not many difficult shots, and it is expected that the shooting will be completed smoothly by the end of July.
……
"Heaven and Dragon Slayer" will be released in July!
The TV series "Little Fish and Flowers" will be broadcast at the end of July!
The movie "Nezha and the Demon Boy Descends to the World" will be released in July!
The anime "Attack on Titan" will be released in August!
It can be said that this summer file is a summer file belonging to Chang'an Film and Television Company.
So much so that now the film and television companies in the entire Xiazhou are the first three big!
A Lin Qiu, an old thief, and two top figures in the entertainment industry in Xiazhou are coming to this kind of powerful output in the form of fire, which seems to have the taste of monopolizing the entire entertainment market.
You must know that in last year's Spring Festival, Chang'an Film and Television Company went through it once, and now it is aiming for the summer file!
"Made!"
"What can I do!"
"It's impossible to fight! This is still the original script of the old thief, and Lin Qiu took it directly to shoot! How can you fight it? ”
The film and television drama market in the summer has always been very huge, especially in the TV drama industry.
At present, there are only a few popular types of TV dramas in Xiazhou.
The first is the theme of anti-crime, which targets men.
The second is the theme of Xianxia love, which targets women.
The third is the costume suspense theme, which belongs to the type that the audience is more comfortable with.
But there has never been a film and television company that will pay attention to the "martial arts TV drama market".
There is only one reason why these film and television companies, the TV series they have invested to create, have a taste of admitting defeat before they are launched......
That's the "martial arts hit" now!!
After the popularity of the two books "Shooting the Condor" and "The Condor" in the past two or three months, the craze for martial arts in the entire Xiazhou has reached an unprecedented level!
Now it just so happens that a martial arts TV series that conforms to the martial arts craze, "Little Fish and Flowers" is in the summer file.
No matter which head you use to think about it, you know that this is a TV series that has exploded in popularity.
Before the broadcast started, I lost half of it, how can I fight?!
Moreover, "Little Fish and Flowers" is a TV series of other film and television companies, and they may be able to expect the finished film to be very bad.
But is it possible for the works produced by Chang'an......
is still the original work of the old thief, directed by Lin Qiu......
It's even more impossible.
This creative team, just thinking about it makes these film and television companies helpless.
"Hey......"
"What should I do?"
What to do!
This is a big problem faced by many film and television companies, if it is released on the same schedule as "Little Fish and Flowers", it will definitely rob away from traffic and attention, which is a verified thing.
"Let's raise the file, it will be broadcast in June."
"Gear up!"
"Gotta be raised!"
Many film and television companies made the same decision almost at the same time.
The summer file is not the time when "Little Fish and Flowers" was broadcast.
They could have mentioned that it would air in June and finish by mid-July.
"Chang'an seems to have a Xianxia TV series......"
"The heat is also very high."
An assistant reminded.
"It's okay, it's okay if it's not directed by Lin Qiu......"
"Now Lin Qiu, even if he defends the pot, this group of viewers will eat it upside down! Hum! ”
The person in charge of the gilded film and television company snorted lightly and said.
In the past, Chang'an did not touch the big cake of the entertainment industry, but now Chang'an is gradually showing its fangs.
……
The Xianxia TV series that is very popular in the mouths of these film and television companies is naturally "Flower Thousand Bone".
This phenomenal Xianxia TV series that set off a crazy craze in the previous life was not only popular, but also won many awards in TV dramas.
First of all, the audience of TV series like "Flower Thousand Bone" is not male, so male viewers have no way to evaluate it.
And many male audiences have "genes" that belittle the aesthetics of others in their bones.
The difference in one's own perspective will lead to appreciation, and the things you like are different.
Lin Qiu in his previous life, because he was an industry insider, naturally watched "Flower Thousand Bone".
As a person, I naturally don't like this type of TV series.
It is undeniable that this is a phenomenal Xianxia TV series.
Any work, as long as it has a market, has its own reason, after all, not every audience goes to watch entertainment works, they all go to see the so-called "art".
If this were the case, the so-called "Marvel" series would not have had such a high box office.
Lin Qiu has his own subjective aesthetics, but it will not affect the output of the work, such as the "Marvel" series, Lin Qiu's evaluation of it is not high.
Superhero films really make Lin Qiu feel exciting, and what attracts Lin Qiu is the three parts of "Batman", especially "The Dark Knight", not because of the plot, but because of the worldview of Gotham.
has a system, and after stepping into the entertainment industry, Lin Qiu has plans to complete the coverage of all types of works.
Industry, suspense, reality, martial arts, including science fiction and other genres will be covered.
The same is true for the film and television drama industry.
What type of entertainment works, Lin Qiu will come up with representative works.
……
This group of film and television companies has no problem thinking about it, after all, compared to Lin Qiu, a "fairy" who is at the peak of popularity, "Flower Thousand Bone" directed by Han Lu is naturally a persimmon that can be pinched.
Just when Lin Qiu started the filming of "Manchester by the Sea".
In Xiazhou, a big battle in which almost all female audiences participated was completely launched.
Because this is a new drama in Chang'an, and it is the first TV series in Chang'an to truly enter the female audience market, once it was launched, it attracted the attention of countless audiences!
In the entertainment industry, women are much more fanatical than men in chasing stars, because women are more emotional, so natural capital will mainly target female audiences.
This so-called "fanaticism" is a neutral word.
Because many male viewers, the stars they chase are not in the entertainment industry, but in the sports circle, or even in the two-dimensional circle, and the degree of "fanaticism" is no worse than chasing stars.
Every time the big schedule arrives, and the TV series is released at the same time, there will definitely be fans chasing stars to start a big battle!
The quality of their work is their weapon.
……
The difference between the works of male frequency and female frequency is quite intuitive.
Many people joke that in the works of the male frequency, the ultimate goal is to dominate the world, and in the female frequency, the ultimate goal is to fall in love, and dominating the world is also to fall in love.
Although it is not absolute, it can be seen that the overall tendency in the works of female frequency can be seen.
It's not that there is a problem with female frequency authors, it's the choice of the market.
Whatever the reader likes to read, the author writes.
In fact, it can be seen from the proportion of female readers of "Shooting the Condor" and "The Condor" that female readers still prefer the main plot with strong emotions like "The Condor".
"Flower Thousand Bone" is exactly like this, and it is a classic female sadomasochism.
……
Han Lu, the director, has found that her portrayal of emotions and guidance for actors are very good since the filming of the "Fairy Sword" series, and this "Flower Thousand Bone" has taken this point to the extreme.
The plot of the story is about a little girl who is not favored by Hua Qiangu, who is lucky enough to be accepted as the only apprentice by Bai Zihua, one of the most powerful people in the immortal cultivation world.
The girl just admired the master very much at first, but later it turned into love, but in the master's door, people who cultivate immortals can't have love.
The overall storyline begins to be told around such a core.
From the warm daily life, to the ups and downs, to the abuse of master and apprentice, as long as such a story is filmed, it will be a kill for female audiences!
In the previous life, although "Flower Thousand Bone" was a TV series work in 2015, eight or nine years later, the popular female frequency costume fairy is still exactly the same way, and the classic routines will never go out of style.
Lin Qiu had expected this, after all, he had the experience of his previous life.
But there was one thing that Lin Qiu didn't expect......
That is, "Flower Thousand Bone" took advantage of the popularity of "The Condor Heroes"!!
Why do you say that, it is because although "Flower Thousand Bone" and "The Condor Heroes" are female and male, they both talk about the indecent love of "master and apprentice"!!
The depth and quality of the two works naturally cannot be compared.
But to a certain extent, a hot pot of oil has been poured on the flame of "Flower Thousand Bone"!!
In exchange, it is the crying of thousands of female viewers in Xiazhou!
