I have to say that Father Li's proposal really opened up a new idea for Yue Guan.

Before, he had preconceived ideas, and his thinking had been restricted.

Hou Liangping is really hard to change, he is just a tool man, no matter how he changes, he is still a tool man.

His character is destined not to be as plump as Jiang Yang.

But Hou Liangping's character is not easy to change, but the position is easy to change. To be precise, the scene is easy to delete.

Who stipulated that Hou Liangping must be the actor in "In the Name of the People"?

Later, after the fire of "In the Name of the People", the screenwriter said in an interview that he knew that Wu Gang could play Secretary Dakang so well, so he wrote Li Dakang as the protagonist.

The screenwriter has no chance.

Yue Guan still has it.

Compared with Hou Liangping, Li Dakang's character is too plump.

A politically correct image of a bureaucrat with flaws but with obvious merit will please both the above and the audience.

"Uncle Li, your suggestion really opened the door to a new world for me. Yue Guan told the truth.

Hearing Yue Guan say this, Father Li was overjoyed.

Originally, he and the above were worried that Yue Guan would be unhappy.

Literary and artistic workers don't like others to interfere with their creative freedom, and Yue Guan is already a very cooperative object, so they don't want Yue Guan to have negative antagonistic feelings towards them.

I didn't expect Yue Guan to be so easy to speak.

Father Li's impression of Yue Guan was even better.

Just in case, Father Li still cautiously asked: "Yue Guan, aren't you talking back, are you?" We are very satisfied with your cooperation, if you really don't want to change, then your opinion shall prevail, after all, you are an expert in this area." ”

"No, I'm telling the truth. With my relationship with Sister Ruotong, Uncle Li and I are a family, and when a family talks, what kind of wit do they play. Yue Guan shook his head and said: "A person's wisdom is always limited, my thinking was imprisoned before, Uncle Li, your proposal has indeed allowed me to find a new angle." I have to say that the leader's vision is a bit powerful. ”

It's much better than the leaders who were in charge of these in their previous lives.

In the previous life, "In the Name of the People" exploded and became a phenomenal rating, and then a TV series that should have been like "Huanzhu Gege" and "Bright Sword", which has been dominating the screen for many years, was tacitly abandoned by all TV stations, and it has never been broadcast in the second round of TV stations, and only video websites can watch it.

It is said that it is because after the fire of "In the Name of the People", the above retrospective, this drama is a bit of a high-level black meaning, the protagonist Hou Liangping Zhong Xiaoai is not grounded, and the righteous side seems to be all from the second generation, and nepotism is a lot.

And the officials who were really grassroots peasants, Zhao Dehan and Qi Tongwei, are all corrupt and degenerate, although this may be the case in reality, but this is really very ironic.

A group of officials and the sons of peasants who were honest and honest and changed their fate through hard work knelt down in front of reality.

It's too real.

So, it's too dark.

The leaders of this world see this problem at a glance, there is a level.

And it can also give effective suggestions for travel, which is more level.

Compared with the national population, of course, the vast majority of ordinary people are born, and the second generation is less than 5% in total.

Therefore, the audience will empathize with Qi Tongwei, even if Qi Tongwei's crime is unforgivable and deserves death, the audience just feels sorry for him.

At that time, Qi Tongwei was the first of the three heroes of politics and law in Handong University, and he was also enthusiastic, not afraid of life and death, and was an anti-drug hero who stood up to the sky.

Later, reality taught him a truth: heroes are just a tool in the face of power.

He is only a hero and has no power.

Therefore, it is useless for him to make meritorious deeds.

So, he fell on his knees before the power.

And Hou Liangping and Chen Hai are also heroes, but they both have power protection from higher, they don't need to grovel to power, they just need to be a hero.

Therefore, Hou Liangping is bright and bright, and his character doesn't know where he is higher than Qi Tongwei, but the audience just can't empathize.

Identity is really important.

He will decide who the audience will substitute.

Yue Guan just couldn't solve the problem of how to make the audience substitute for Hou Liangping's perspective, so he rejected the role of Hou Liangping.

However, Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang are particularly convenient for the audience to substitute and empathize.

Especially Qi Tongwei.

The role of Li Dakang is more played by Mr. Wu Gang, who played a role with a score of 80 to 99 points.

The role of Qi Tongwei is really set up, the lines are wonderfully written, this role is set to 90 points, and it is basically impossible to find an excellent actor to play it with a score of 95.

As for Hou Liangping, the character setting lasts 60 points.

Find a national first-class actor, and if you die, you will be given 80 points.

You really can't blame Lu Yi for acting poorly, Lu Yi didn't act well if he died, but it was really not particularly bad.

"Yue Guan, since you agree with this suggestion, do you have any ideas?" Father Li also came to the spirit.

When they discussed it internally, they actually preferred "The Long Night", but they all knew that if it was really filmed, the more popular would definitely be "In the Name of the People".

So they pay more attention to the drama "In the Name of the People".

And Yue Guan's opinion is very important to them.

Yue Guan thought for a while and gave his opinion: "As you said, weaken the role of Hou Liangping, throw the role of the protagonist to Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei, and dig deeper into their stories." Not only the two of them, but characters like Gao Yuliang and Gao Xiaoqin can actually dig deeper. ”

are all very representative characters.

But Li's father still cares more about Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei.

The result of their internal discussion is that if this script is filmed, the most brilliant should be Qi Tongwei, followed by Li Dakang.

There is really something about the leadership level of this world, if it weren't for Yue Guan knowing that Mr. Wu Gang was hanging, Secretary Dakang's personality was really not enough to support him to become popular.

The above judgment is theoretically correct.

"Protagonist, do you want to decide Qi Tongwei or Li Dakang? Yue Guan, I personally recommend Qi Tongwei. Qi Tongwei's story line is very complete, a poor student, changed his fate through hard study, but because he was favored by the daughter of a high-ranking political and legal official, he separated him from his girlfriend and assigned him a promising college student to the ravine, which is called a test of love for Qi Tongwei. Later, Qi Tongwei killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions and became an anti-drug hero, but he was still suppressed, and his girlfriend also broke up with him, so he accepted his fate and was with that daughter. As long as Qi Tongwei's character is slightly changed, he can become an inspirational image. Arrange another noble person for Qi Tongwei, and a protagonist who conforms to mainstream values will be on paper. ”

Father Li's views were also the views of their own internal discussions.

However, Yue Guan thought about it and rejected the proposal: "Uncle Li, if Qi Tongwei is not blackened, he may not have the charm described in the script, and he may not be able to empathize with the audience." Set two protagonists, one positive and one negative, Li Dakang is positive, and Qi Tongwei is negative. Through comparison, give the audience real answers. ”

Yue Guan himself is reluctant to whitewash the villain.

Because a villain is a villain, and he has done something unforgivable.

Is Qi Tongwei pitiful?

But is he damned? Damn.

When he chooses to go along with it, it means that he has melted into the darkness, and he is even darker than those who were in the darkness.

Murder and silence, corruption, bribery...... He's done everything he should have done, so what's there to wash away?

Qi Tongwei is not his relative.

And what Yue Guan said was also from his heart.

Qi Tongwei's situation was so difficult at the beginning, if you let the audience choose, there is a high probability that he will kneel.

Qi Tongwei knelt down and bowed to power, this choice is more in line with human nature and can allow the audience to substitute.

If Qi Tongwei is really changed to the kind of righteous and awe-inspiring character who sees death as home, the character of Qi Tongwei will lose a lot of charm, and it may not be able to make the audience emotional.

It is enough to have one Jiang Yang, there is no need to create another Qi Tongwei like Jiang Yang.

Father Li was persuaded by Yue Guan.

"What you said makes sense, the sense of substitution is a problem, Qi Tongwei did encounter a lot of injustices back then, and it is difficult to ask him to straighten his spine as a young man. ”

"The most important thing is that Qi Tongwei is the only one who has him, and he doesn't even have anyone to rely on, he can only rely on himself. A rural child who grew up eating 100 family meals, a rural child who even has the money to go to college is made up by the whole village, if he doesn't get ahead, he himself will not accept it. Yue Guan shook his head and said, "I don't sympathize with Qi Tongwei, but I don't despise him either." Seriously, Hou Liangping is not qualified to despise him. He has not experienced what Qi Tongwei has experienced at all, so it is enough to judge Qi Tongwei in law, and from his own point of view, he may not be as strong as Qi Tongwei. ”

In the original version of "In the Name of the People", the unfair experiences suffered by Qi Tongwei were just a little willfulness of power in the eyes of Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiaoai, but Qi Tongwei did not stand the test, they despised Qi Tongwei extremely much, and what they said was a light breeze.

This dialogue also completely lost the audience relationship between the two.

The little willfulness of power assigned a promising student union president who was so valuable in that era to a small ravine, let him fly separately from his girlfriend Lao Yan, and made it a joke for him to risk his life to receive awards for meritorious service.

In the eyes of Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiaoai, this is just a small willfulness of power......

What about the wayward Nima.

did not blame the culprit, but despised Qi Tongwei for not standing the test.

Typical why not eat minced meat.

If it weren't for the fact that the whole drama has been full of this sense of superiority of why not eat minced meat, it would not have attracted the disgust of so many audiences.

There's an old saying that you have no idea what I've been through.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are inseparable, and it is difficult to expect a group of second-generation people to understand the pressure of a poor college student.

In many cases, the audience can't be blamed for their incorrect views, because for ordinary people, fairness has become an increasingly scarce luxury. Therefore, the audience is more willing to substitute for those villains who have experienced unfair things.

Qi Tongwei deserves to die, because later he became the kind of person he hated the most, and his hands were stained with other people's blood. However, comparing Hou Liangping with him, it is indeed too much of a failure, which is not the original intention of the above. Father Li said.

Yue Guan nodded.

"In the Name of the People" has actually been comparing Hou Liangping and Qi Tongwei, and through the completely different life experiences of the two, I hope to prove to the audience the concept that justice will prevail.

However, it backfired.

Because Qi Tongwei and Hou Liangping are not comparable at all.

Qi Tongwei tried his best and risked his life, but he couldn't even get the qualification to be with the woman he loved.

And Hou Liangping is on the rise, his wife has a prominent family background, and his own conditions are not bad, so he doesn't need to worry about suppression from other aspects at all.

A rural child, a wealthy son-in-law......

Do you ask the audience to compare them "fairly"?

I'm sorry, but the audience has a rod scale in their hearts.

The audience does not think that the two are comparable.

If you really want to compare, it is indeed more appropriate to compare Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei.

"Hou Liangping can't, Li Dakang can. They are all from ordinary families, and they all face a lot of temptations and choices. Qi Tongwei succumbed, but Li Dakang did not. Even in the face of his biggest backer, he insisted on the integrity and justice in his heart. For the sake of political achievements, he will also do whatever it takes, and he is free if the law does not prohibit it. But as long as the law prohibits it, he resolutely refuses to do it. When the water is clear, there are no fish, he will connive at the corruption of his subordinates, and he will turn a blind eye to his wife's bribery. But he himself will always be clean, and when it is time to make a choice, he will always be innocent, even if it costs the separation of his wife. His political achievements are always the most beautiful, and they are all masterful, which makes him invincible by nature.

Whether it is in terms of being a person or an official, Li Dakang is better than Qi Tongwei. Compared with Qi Tongwei, Li Dakang is really ruthless to others and to himself. It's not a perfect character either, but because of that, it's flesh and blood. Uncle Li, you give me a few days, and I'll write a new script. ”

"How do you write it?" asked Father Li.

"Let's have a two-line narrative, one positive and one negative, portraying all the things that Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei experienced and the choices they made. Different choices, make them pay different prices. He who turns his back on the people will be abandoned by the people. If he chooses the people, the people will never forget him. ”

Therefore, Qi Tongwei still has to die, and it is impossible to win half a son.

Therefore, Secretary Dakang's GDP is still guarded, and if you don't forget it, there will be repercussions.

cut off most of Hou Liangping's scenes and used them in the story line of plump Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei, Yue Guan didn't know that such a "People's Destiny" would lose?

Father Li asked the last question: "Yue Guan, do you want to play Qi Tongwei by yourself?"

Li Dakang didn't ask directly, the age gap was too big.

But Qi Tongwei's words, with a little makeup, can still be operated, and in Yue Guan's script, the things that Qi Tongwei experienced when he was young will be heavily colored, and it is not suitable to find an actor who is too old.

Yue Guan thought of the difference between Jiang Yang and Qi Tongwei.

He has never played a pure good guy before, nor has he played a real bad guy.

If Jiang Yang and Qi Tongwei take it together, it will be a new challenge.
