Chapter 324: Hard work is the least thing to brag about

Yue Guan is no stranger to the "Art Life" program group, after all, he has scored twice.

Compared with a few years ago, the ratings of "Art Life" have dropped again in the past two years......

There is no way, the general situation now is that the ratings of TV stations are falling, and it is not because TV dramas and variety shows are not as good as before, the main factor is the general environment.

When viewers can also see the content on TV online, the convenience of the Internet will completely blow up TV, and even the older generation of viewers will love watching TV from the computer with the help of young people.

For example, Yue Guan's parents.

In the past, the two of them were two loyal TV viewers, and since Yue Guan taught them how to watch TV on their computers and mobile phones, the two of them directly abandoned TV.

The general environment is like this, and no one can go against the sky.

However, the person in charge of "Art Life" thinks that Yue Guan can.

After all, Yue Guan's popularity is undoubted now, and there is a new drama released, and the "Art Life" program team is just here to gain a wave of popularity.

In the drama "Game of Thrones", CCTV invested a lot of money, and when he first invested, he made an appointment with Yue Guan to participate in some of CCTV's promotional activities, and he had no reason to refuse.

Being able to come to "Art Life", Yue Guan is generally quite satisfied, after all, he is familiar with the road.

The relationship between him and Zhu Jun is also okay, although he is not particularly familiar, Zhu Jun will not deliberately cheat him.

This issue of "Art Life" mainly talks about "Game of Thrones", after all, the main purpose is also to do publicity.

CCTV attaches more importance to this drama than Yue Guan, this is CCTV's first attempt in the paid field, it can only succeed, not fail, if it fails, CCTV may even have to change a wave of leaders.

Therefore, Zhu Jun attaches great importance to this interview, and the questions he asked Yue Guan and Chen Daoming basically did not deviate much from "Game of Thrones".

"Mr. Chen, what were your considerations for taking on the play "Game of Thrones"? I heard that you initially refused. ”

Chen Daoming nodded: "Yes, because I have played too many emperors before, and in the eyes of the audience, I am almost already an emperor professional." In this case, I feel that I can't bring a better experience to the audience by playing another emperor, and I don't have much breakthrough myself. ”

"Then why did you take over the role of Emperor Qing later?"

"Because Yue Guan is really sincere, he came to me several times, and I also read the script, and the role of Emperor Qing is indeed very different from the emperor I played before. And Yue Guan told me about the lineup of the show "Game of Thrones", and I agreed directly on impulse. Later, after chatting with Old Tang and Old Wu, I learned that Yue Guan also fooled them like this, in fact, I was the first to agree. ”

Chen Daoming's words made both Zhu Jun and Yue Guan laugh.

Zhu Jun looked at Yue Guan: "Isn't this the joke between Bill Gates and the vice president of the World Bank?"

The story told by Zhu Jun goes like this:

Jack wanted his son to marry Bill Gates' daughter, so he approached Bill Gates and said, "I'll introduce your daughter to a good husband." ”

Bill Gates said, "My daughter doesn't want to marry yet!"

Jack added, "I'm talking about this young man who is the vice president of the World Bank!"

Bill Gates was taken aback: "...... such words"

Then Jack went to the president of the World Bank: "I want to introduce a young man to be the vice president of your bank." ”

The president said that we already have dozens of vice presidents, enough of them!

Jack said, "This young man I introduced is Bill Gates' son-in-law!"

Eventually, Jack's son married Bill Gates' daughter and became vice president of the World Bank.

This is, of course, a joke.

But it is very widespread.

And the story in the paragraph is actually effective imitation value.

For example, Yue Guan came to such a play.

Yue Guan chuckled: "Learn and use, seniors like Teacher Chen and Teacher Tang are too difficult to invite, and you can't invite them at all without some means." ”

"It's you. ”

Zhu Jun didn't understand what Yue Guan was praising or belittling himself.

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, the wood is already in the boat, and his goal has been achieved.

"Mr. Chen, what do you think of Yue Guan's performance in Game of Thrones?" asked Zhu Jun.

Chen Daoming replied without hesitation: "Incomparable, many viewers will probably think that I am polite, but I am serious." Viewers who watch TV carefully should be able to see that when the first scene of "Game of Thrones" was played right, Yue Guan's performance was actually better than mine. In my mind, Yue Guan's performance in the drama "Game of Thrones" is worth a visual emperor. ”

Chen Daoming's praise was so powerful that Zhu Jun didn't dare to believe it.

Although he also watched "Game of Thrones" and thought that Yue Guan did act very well, he was not a professional actor who studied acting, and when the gap was not large, he couldn't tell who was higher and who was lower.

But Zhu Jun is not a perch.

If this were to be replaced by sea bass, it would probably come straight to the question: "Really? I don't believe it." ”

Although Zhu Jun didn't believe it, he wouldn't say it, he just questioned it from the side: "Yue Guan's acting skills should still be far from you." ”

This is also the perception of many viewers now.

By now, there are few viewers who question Yue Guan's acting skills.

But compared with Yue Guan and national first-class actors, the audience still thinks that Yue Guan is too young.

It takes at least ten years of sharpening to be qualified to be on par with them in terms of acting skills.

But Chen Daoming said very seriously: "No, there is no gap, there are geniuses in this world, and Yue Guan is this kind of genius." ”

Seeing that Zhu Jun was a little unconvinced, Chen Daoming thought about it and added: "At my point, I don't have to be too polite to anyone." To put it mildly, Yue Guan is indeed very energetic and popular in the entertainment industry now, but it doesn't have much impact on me, I don't actually have to give him face. I say this because I was really conquered by Yue Guan's acting skills, and it has nothing to do with his status and fame. ”

Chen Daoming said this, and Zhu Jun had no way not to believe it.

He looked at Yue Guan with some surprise: "Yue Guan, what do you think of Teacher Chen's comments?"

Yue Guan smiled: "Acting is a matter of opinion, and there is no unified measurement standard, so the audience can judge it for themselves in their hearts." Mr. Chen is also one of the audience for me, and I certainly respect his judgment. ”

The implication is that he agrees with Chen Daoming's view.

Yue Guan's words are modest, but in fact, they are not modest at all.

Zhu Jun sighed with emotion: "Yue Guan, how old are you, you have actually grown to this point. ”

"Acting skills can't just look at age, Mr. Chen has basically been full of acting skills since his debut, and he rarely pulls his hips. Yue Guan exclaimed: "In comparison, my progress is actually quite obvious. ”

"It's not very obvious. Chen Daoming continued: "I have watched his play since Yue Guan's "The First in the World", Yue Guan acted very well in "The First in the World", and Lao Li was suppressed by Yue Guan very miserably. ”

"Yes, I also have an impression of the little emperor in "No. 1 in the World". Zhu Jun nodded and said: "At that time, I was indeed amazed by Yue Guan's interpretation of the little emperor, but the roles of Yang Guo, Zhang Wuji, Yan Zekun and other characters that Yue Guan later created seemed to be a little worse than the little emperor's amazement." ”

Judging from the fact that Zhu Jun has played a number of roles in Yue Guan when he opened his mouth, he has obviously prepared detailed information.

CCTV host, no matter what the upper limit is, the lower limit will not be too low.

As soon as Yue Guan wanted to explain, Chen Daoming helped him do it: "That's because Yue Guan is taking the show." ”

Yue Guan: "......" is really not there.

Chen Daoming said: This can be had.

Faced with Zhu Jun's doubts, Chen Daoming patiently explained: "Yue Guan's plays, he is generally a part-time investor and screenwriter, and he must take into account the overall situation. If the acting skills of the actors who play opposite him are average, Yue Guan will not play particularly well, lest the final product made the audience feel separated, and it will also be a blow to the actors who play opposite him. Only when he meets an actor who meets an opponent in chess, Yue Guan will be full of firepower, and he is really an amazing young man. ”

Zhu Jun looked at Yue Guan with eyes like a god: "Yue Guan, is that so?"

Yue Guan said seriously: "It's really not, Teacher Chen is too ridiculous." ”

Chen Daoming waved his hand: "What a false praise, you are too modest, what I said is the truth." Acting can't deceive people, strong is strong, and if it doesn't work, it won't work. At the time of "No. 1 in the World", was the little emperor portrayed by Yue Guan very amazing?"

Zhu Jun nodded.

"In "Game of Thrones", the Seven Princes of Yueguan did not fall into disadvantage in the face of Emperor Qing played by me and the queen played by Ning Jing, right?"

Not only did it not, but it faintly gained the upper hand. Zhu Jun is already biased towards Chen Daoming's statement.

Chen Daoming spread his hands: "So, there is only one truth." ”

Yue Guan: "......" is tired.

I didn't admit anything.

But Zhu Jun thought he had acquiesced.

He thought of some of the news he had seen before.

"I remember, Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei both said to the outside world before that when Yue Guan was filming "Pure Heart: Dream Chasing Taiping Wheel", in order to take care of them, he deliberately lowered his acting skills. At the time, I thought it was just the crew's propaganda, but now it seems that it should be true. ”

Yes, everything is on the right.

Well-founded and convincing.

No matter how much Yue Guan denied it, he couldn't change this fact.

Lion poop is better than bear poop.

So there's no need to listen to Yue Guan's explanation.

Yue Guan was helpless.

He swore to God, he really didn't say anything.

It's all made up by this group of people themselves.

"In fact, compared with Yue Guan's acting skills, I think the most amazing thing about the drama "Game of Thrones" is the character setting and power struggle, and the script is amazing. Zhu Jun brought the topic back to the drama "Game of Thrones": "Just like the role of Emperor Qing played by Mr. Chen, if it is changed to other TV series, it will definitely be a villain." ”

Chen Daoming nodded: "Inevitably, Yue Guan and Liu Heping have made great attempts in pioneering, and they have been very successful so far." I especially like the role of Emperor Qing, he is not the kind of perfect emperor in the former domestic dramas, for the sake of power, he can attack the queen, his favorite concubine, kill his own righteous brother, and even attack his own son. But most of the people under the rule of Emperor Qing lived and worked in peace and contentment, even though his hands were full of blood, but in the world, he was a good emperor. He is sorry for many people, but he is worthy of the world. In my mind, this is the posture that a Ming Jun should have. Mingjun does not mean a good person, but most of the previous domestic dramas misunderstood this. ”

Yue Guan added: "If a good person is an emperor, he may even mislead the country and the people. For the emperor, the most important thing is not personal morality, but his own talent, courage and responsibility. ”

"So Yue Guan, did you write the role of Emperor Qing so brilliantly out of this consideration?" asked Zhu Jun.

"In fact, it's not just Emperor Qing, you will know that the drama "Game of Thrones" actually has no absolute protagonist.

From the perspective of the Seventh Prince, it is right for him to hate Emperor Qing, and it is natural for him to want to be the emperor.

From Emperor Qing's point of view, everything he does is for the stability of the world, the crown prince is the prince of the country, and he cannot be easily abolished, the queen's family is powerful and must be suppressed, otherwise his relatives will inevitably interfere in politics, and there is nothing wrong with what he does.

From Mei Changsu's point of view, he was wiped out by Emperor Qing, and it is impossible to say that he does not take revenge, and it will be disgusting to give up revenge.

From Dean Chen's point of view, he is loyal and patriotic, what is wrong?

From Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's point of view, he and Lin Xie are certainly incompatible, but the emperor is determined to kill Lin Xie, and he is only taking his own family's life and his own ambitions on the opposite side. Leave it to be useful, he can at least splash ink on the territory of Daqing, it turns out that he has also done a good job, Daqing is far more prosperous under his governance than the previous dynasty.

And from the empress's point of view, her family paid a huge price in order to help Emperor Qing ascend to the throne, and it was natural to ask for some compensation. After Emperor Qing ascended the throne, he turned his face and did not recognize people, while suppressing her family, he also gave birth to her, and the queen hated Emperor Qing for being ruthless, which was also very normal.

Everyone will only do it from their own point of view, and from their own point of view, they are actually doing the right thing. The show "Game of Thrones" also conveys the idea that no one is born the protagonist, everyone is the protagonist of their own life. Don't just look at the problem from one angle, analyze it from multiple angles, and maybe you will find a different world. ”

Yue Guan's words made Zhu Jun have to praise: "It must be very hard to write such a script, I believe that without hard work, it will never be possible to conceive such a good script." And this kind of script is perfectly presented, and it must be not easy in the process of filming. ”

Zhu Jun entered the field he was most familiar with: sensational time.

Hard, not easy, hard, bitter behind the bitterness...... This is a necessary process for the "Art Life" program team.

However, neither Yue Guan nor Chen Daoming cooperated with Zhu Jun.

Chen Daoming took the lead in firing: "If you want to shoot this kind of good drama well, of course it's not so easy." But this is our job, there is nothing to complain about, Yue Guan gave all the remuneration that should be given, how difficult it is to get so much remuneration, and if you say it, you will be beaten, I believe that many people in the entertainment industry will think that since it is not easy, divide the money you earn with me, I will come, no matter how hard I work, I am willing. ”

Zhu Jun: "......"

It wasn't the answer he wanted.

But Chen Daoming's status is really not very willing to follow his routine.

Anyway, CCTV doesn't stipulate what the guests must say when they are interviewed, and Chen Daoming of course comes with his own wishes.

Among the stars, Chen Daoming is really a very rigid person. As a very influential public star, he dared to directly say in the interview that because of historical reasons, I can't be objective about my attitude towards the island country.

How many celebrities dare to be so direct?

When the status is reached, there will be fewer scruples, and if you make enough money, you will be too lazy to be a good person.

Chen Daoming just looks very elegant, and after a little check of his news, he found that there is really no shortage of cannons, but the targets of his cannons are generally objects that the general public is not used to.

It's no wonder that he is popular with passers-by and has a high degree of nationality, although there are times when the car rolls over, but in general, there are still many people who like him.

Chen Daoming is so real, of course Yue Guan will not be hypocritical.

His status has also arrived.

And he doesn't like to play sensationalism very much.

So he followed Chen Daoming's words and spoke: "Teacher Zhu, do you know that I produced a variety show called "The World is Real"?"

When it is broadcast, the four words "The Truth of the World" should be silenced, and the subtitles will be blocked if there is no accident, but it doesn't matter, anyway, Yue Guan is not here to advertise.

In terms of the popularity of "The Truth of the World", there is no need to advertise on "Art Life", and the two are almost the same.

Zhu Jun also knew this, although he didn't understand Yue Guan's words, he still nodded: "Of course, that show is the hottest variety show at the moment." ”

But the ratings of "Art Life" are not getting worse day by day. ”

Zhu Jun's face did not change, he believed that Yue Guan's emotional intelligence would not be so low as to belittle "Art Life" when he recorded "Art Life".

Of course not at Yueguan.

There's a reason he says that.

"Mr. Zhu, the industry calls me a gold sage, do you want me to analyze the reasons for the declining ratings of "Art Life" from a professional point of view?"

"You say. Zhu Jun motioned for himself to listen.

Yue Guan was also not polite: "Because the audience doesn't like to watch celebrities sensationalize, and they don't want to know how difficult it is behind celebrities." The selling point of "Art Life" is wrong, so the audience is destined to be less and less. ”

Zhu Jun: "......"

Good guy, Yue Guan directly denied the core selling point of the "Art Life" program group from the root.

The routine of "Art Life" is that Zhu Jun interviews guests and enters his inner world, so that the audience can understand how difficult it is for him to get to where he is today.

As a result, Yue Guan said that the audience didn't care about these at all.

Zhu Jun couldn't accept it.

But Chen Daoming's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Yue Guan, you are really professional, from my point of view, I am really disgusted that many celebrities declare that they work hard all day long, and the pressure is very high, and it is not easy." ”

Zhu Jun looked at Chen Daoming in surprise.

One thing to say, he really didn't realize that the audience didn't like to watch this.

The "Art Life" program team didn't realize it either.

CCTV's programs also need ratings, and if the program team is aware, they will definitely not die by themselves.

Zhu Jun asked, "Teacher Chen, why don't you like to listen to these things?"

"Because it's so fake, people who have achieved fame come to reminisce about what they want to express?" Chen Daoming asked rhetorically.

Zhu Jun still didn't realize the core problem.

Yue Guan pierced the emperor's new clothes: "A group of billionaires say to people with annual salaries of several thousand, I am under a lot of pressure, I work very hard, and I hope to get your support and approval, is this sarcastic or sarcastic?"

Zhu Jun: "......"

He seemed to understand something.

"Mr. Zhu, you have interviewed many celebrities in "Art Life", and basically everyone will say that their work experience is not easy, and they have put in a lot of effort to get to where they are today, and they have suffered a lot of sins for filming, and then what?" Yue Guan said: "Then they became billionaires, does the audience need to sympathize with them? Does the audience need to care about the stories behind them?"

Zhu Jun couldn't answer that question.

"It's not easy to say, it's not easy for anyone. If you want to talk about hard work, who doesn't work hard in this world? How much hardship do celebrities endure, and how much money do they earn? Don't Foxconn workers work hard? Don't the soldiers stationed on the frontier work hard? Don't the peasant uncles who work hard all year round work hard? How much do they get?

The "Art Life" program team doesn't care about people who really work hard but are too little understood, but instead focus on how hard it is for stars. Mr. Zhu, the hard work of a star is directly proportional to the money earned, a star does not need to let the audience know how hard he is, as long as he can bring good works to the audience.

Actually, I'm quite disgusted with the celebrities who are engaged in hard work now, because I really don't know what to brag about hard work? Isn't this how it should be? 99% of people in this world work hard, which is also worthy of praise?

When we mention Mr. Chen Daoming, we will say that Mr. Chen has portrayed many classic characters and is a rare good actor. When we mention Jay Chou, we will say that Jay Chou has created many popular songs and led an era. Then we mention certain stars and only say that he really works hard.

IMHO, there is no work for hard work, there is a use for fart. This is obviously a black spot, but many celebrities are not ashamed but proud, this kind of atmosphere is really bad. If the entertainment industry becomes a place where you can gain a foothold by hard work rather than by works, the industry will only get worse and worse.

Mr. Zhu, the program team of "Art Life" wants to increase ratings and expand popularity, so it is useless to invite me and Mr. Chen to come. The best way is to change the program strategy, instead of paying attention to how difficult it is to star stars, it is better to change it to a demon mirror in the entertainment industry, focusing on those stars who work hard but have no works, and then expose how easy it is for them to make money. Believe me, this can not only help the entertainment industry clean the air, but also make the ratings of "Art Life" skyrocket several times. Anyway, you have Yang Ma as the backstage, what are you afraid of? ”

Yue Guan's words made Zhu Jun speechless.

However, the producer of the "Art Life" program group was thrilled.

He listened to Yue Guan's words, especially the last two sentences.

They are a national name show, what are they afraid of?

Is CCTV still afraid of offending people?

Yue Guan's suggestion is operational.
