Chapter 125 Competition for Characters
Yin Jun sold a total of three scripts to Jiashi.
"People in the Net", 80 episodes.
The Falcon, 40 episodes.
"Shen Shengyi", 80 episodes.
Perhaps the most familiar to many of these three scripts is the second "Falcon", which is Liu Dehua's famous work.
It was with his handsome image in Falcon that Liu Dehua became a popular niche in Wireless, and thus began his brilliant road.
This is a bit like "Top Gun" to Tom, both of which have similar meanings.
The third "Shen Shengyi" is weaker in terms of popularity, but in fact it is also a very good TV series. In the 1990s, this TV series was introduced to the mainland, although it has long since disappeared. The word "everyone empty" is still very popular, and Xu Shaoqiang's Shen Shengyi has become one of his most classic images for mainland audiences.
But after counting, the most famous one is "People in the Net" that most people have never heard of.
To be precise, if there is no "Shanghai. Hai. Beach", this play is Zhou Runfa's masterpiece.
It's just that with the more prominent "Shanghai. Hai. Beach", people mention Xu Wenqiang more, not Cheng Wei, who is also very outstanding in "People in the Net".
In the 1990s, Hong Kong audiences once voted for the most outstanding TV series in the 1970s and 1980s. The first was "Shanghai. Hai. Beach", and the second was it.
Even a TV drama like "Chu Liuxiang" that has a lot of ratings is a little worse than "People in the Net" in terms of word of mouth.
And A Can's name from Xiangjiang, who we are very familiar with, comes from Cheng Can, Cheng Wei's younger brother in "People in the Net". Later, the name A Can was extended by mainlanders, calling some disgusting people Hong Kong x .
Before "Shanghai. Hai. Beach" came out, it was the best and the most fashionable TV drama that is closest to the life of Hong Kong people.
Therefore, Yin Juncai asked Le Yiling to go to the crew of "People in the Net".
In the afternoon, Yin Jun went to Jiashi to discuss the details of the three scripts and make some suggestions of his own. As a result, just after entering the door, he met Wu Weiguo, the first student of Jiashi.
Wu Weiguo, who is only 26 years old this year, is at the peak of his life.
Although several TV dramas in Jiashi have not reached the height of his in TVB, many viewers still watch Jiashi's TV series because of him.
Recently, he starred in "The First Sword of Fengyun", and the effect is also good, with an average rating of 27%. Under the pressure of TVB and Li, it is generally not bad to have a TV series of this level.
However, with Zhuyu from "Bao Qingtian" and "Wulin Biography" ahead, the achievements of "The First Sword of Fengyun" can only be said to be very reluctant.
Wu Weiguo and Yin Jun have a little friendship.
When "Wulin Gaiden" was just filmed, Wei Xiaofan was the first to make a cameo appearance, but Wu Weiguo was the second one who took the initiative.
As Wu Weiguo, being able to show goodwill to Yin Jun like this is definitely full of sincerity, at least compared to Hui Tianci, it is much better.
When Wu Weiguo saw Yin Jun, he politely said, "Ajun, Miss Liang and the others are having a meeting. How about we go to the coffee shop next door?"
"Alright."
Yin Jun knew that Wu Weiguo had something to tell him, so he followed him to a cafe not far away. Wu Weiguo also specially asked for a box.
Drinking coffee, Wu Weiguo smiled when he saw the juice Yin Jun was drinking, "Ajun, watching you drink juice, you will know that you are not yet an adult, but what you did, but we adults It can't be compared to a horse."
"You're welcome, Brother Wei." Yin Jun said, "I'm just lucky, I just need to work harder."
Yin Jun is telling the truth.
If it weren't for him returning to the present 42 years ago, he would be just an ordinary person working hard for a house and a wife.
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that he was very diligent on weekdays and worked hard to understand, learn and consult entertainment projects and knowledge in the Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau, Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States, etc., he would not have possessed so much.
Ordinary people go back to the past and at best use a little prophet to make their life a little better, such as ball games, housing prices, antiques, etc., they cannot reach the level of Yin Jun, and cannot be so systematic in the entertainment industry. , step by step and move up steadily.
"Haha." Wu Weiguo thought that Yin Jun was humble, and he continued, "Ajun, you know, I recently finished filming "The First Sword of Fengyun". The TV station told me to wait for the next key drama, I heard you I gave three scripts in one go, can you ask me, which one do you think is the most suitable for me?"
"Do they have any ideas?" Yin Jun asked first.
"Well, they want me to play the role of Shen Shengyi." Wu Weiguo said, "Ciguan especially praised the script, saying that you wrote it very well."
"This script was actually written by Huang Ying from the original work, I just modified some." Yin Jun said with a smile, "However, it is really a good script, interlocking and touching, giving people a completely different look from Jin. The sense of urgency of the martial arts drama of Yong, the ratings will be very good."
"Then what about the remaining two?" Wu Weiguo asked directly, and after that, he laughed a little to himself, "Am I being too greedy? To tell you the truth, Ajun, everyone said, 'Wu Weiguo is the No. 1 in Hong Kong Xiaosheng can be compared with Liu Songren and Zheng Shaoqiu.' But I know for myself that although I have made a lot of money in the past few years, my reputation has been declining.
However, I'm only 26 years old this year, if I keep quiet like this, I really can't do it. If it was before, Jiashi was already half-dead, I might not think of any other way, and I might have to go back to wireless in the end. But it's different now, Jun, your script is my best hope! I hope you can give me a hand so I can get back to the top! I, Wu Weiguo, will never forget those who helped me! "
Wu Weiguo's words are very sincere, and Yin Jun can also hear it. This is his sincere words.
To be honest, Yin Jun still admires Wu Weiguo, that is, after he was poached by Jiashi, Jiashi went bankrupt, and after returning to Wireless, his niche position has been replaced by a group of newcomers who have risen rapidly, otherwise Wu Weiguo could have achieved it. Similar achievements to Liu Songren and Zheng Shaoqiu.
Moreover, Wu Weiguo had a relationship with Liu Xiaoqing in his previous life. Although he was not married, Liu Xiaoqing's evaluation of him was quite good.
In the 1990s, being able to fall in love with a female star in the mainland proved that he had a positive attitude towards the mainland, which deserved Yin Jun's help.
Yin Jun will never get used to those guys who make money from the mainland, but still throw down their chopsticks and curse their mothers.
"Then play the leading role in "People in the Net"." After pondering for a while, Yin Jun gave his answer.
"it is good!"
Wu Weiguo had no doubts and nodded solemnly.
His heart was relieved.
Fortunately, I came to find A Jun ahead of time, otherwise, after playing Shen Shengyi, I would only be able to see the scenery of others performing "People in the Net".
Everyone in Jiashi knows that Yin Jun is a very kind and particular person.
If nothing else, just his attitude towards Aunt Zhang, who shared the house with him, is enough to explain a lot of problems.
Most of Yin Jun's salary in "Bao Qingtian" was spent on that Aunt Zhang's operation, and he didn't even hesitate.
How can people with such a strong character not be trusted by what they say and do?
...
When Yin Jun and Wu Weiguo returned to Jiashi, Liang Shuyi and their meeting had ended.
When talking with Yin Jun this time, several senior officials of Jiashi were there.
Some people Yin Jun met for the first time, but Liu Tianci and Shi Shaoming had already told him about the layout of Jiashi, and Xiao Sheng also talked about it, so Yin Jun could recognize them at a glance.
"Junzai, you have seen it too, now our Jiashi is very busy and messy." Liang Shuyi said with a smile, "I took three plays in one go, and any of them looked good, so everyone They are all scrambling to appear. I haven't seen a scene like this for a long time."
"Being able to do things actively is the beginning of a TV station's prosperity." Yin Jun said politely.
"However, we also have some things and want to hear your opinion." Shi Shaoming said here, "For example, which of the three TV series do you think can compete with others the most, and which one is suitable for the disadvantaged? At one point, we are brave, which one requires us to invest more in the budget, and which one must have the best producer in charge.”
"These questions are very simple in my opinion. I will talk about my own thoughts, and you can refer to them." Yin Jun did not refuse. He took so much script fee from others, so he should take more responsibility, "If it is Looking for a TV series that can take over the 8 o'clock file, I think it should be "The Man in the Net". First, the ancient costume film "Bao Qingtian", which has been on the air for so long, can make the audience change their tastes; secondly, "The Man in the Net" It is a fashion drama, and it is close to people's lives today, so it is easy to resonate.
At 7 o'clock, both "Falcon" and "Shen Shengyi" will do. However, considering the maximization of interests, we should let "Falcon" pick up the 7 o'clock file first, and then put "Shen Shengyi" into "Falcon" after the broadcast. In terms of the details of the three plays, "People in the Net" is the most test of people's acting skills, so it is enough to let the best actors perform. As for the producer, there is no need for Brother Sheng to come out.
Brother Sheng should supervise the production of "Falcon". This TV series tells the story of the police and the police. The test is the ability of the producer to control. You can't overshoot the show, and you can't make it superficial, so that the audience will like it. In addition to that, it's better to let the police side like it, so that they can provide us with more support. Such a heavy responsibility can only be undertaken by Brother Sheng.
"Shen Shengyi" is a martial arts drama in ancient costumes. Jiashi already has a lot of experience before. If you find a good producer and a group of good actors who can grasp the direction of the plot, then this drama can meet the requirements. I dare not say that it can monopolize more than 60% of the ratings, but it is possible to guarantee about 40%-50%. "
"So Junzai, what do you think of me directing "People in the Net"?" Ye Yunxin asked impatiently.
"Okay." Yin Jun nodded, "Sister Ye, you have a delicate mind and are most suitable for this kind of TV series with a little love and hatred. If it is matched with your confidant and love general Wu Weiguo, then this drama wants to It is impossible not to tug at the heartstrings of the audience in Hong Kong."
When Wu Weiguo first started acting in 1973, it was Ye Yunxin who was leading him.
When Jiashi was established, it was Ye Yunxin who persuaded him to come over. He belonged to Jiashi Ye's faction.
"Okay, Wei Guo originally went to "Shen Shengyi". Since "People in the Net" is the key point, then he will follow me." Ye Yunxin said without hesitation.
She is the manager in charge of the filming and production team, and has great power to choose actors. In this regard, if you want the best actors, naturally no one else has anything to say.
"What about Bai Biao?" Shi Shaoming asked, "Can he appear in Shen Shengyi?"
"If there is no suitable candidate, it will be him." Yin Jun pinched his nose.
This is also something that can't be helped. Although Bai Biao's status in Jiashi is very high, Yin Jun looks at his horse face and feels that he is not suitable to play the male lead, and the villain is similar.
However, at this time, the people at Jiashi did not think that Bai Biao was bad. Perhaps this is the limitation of the times.
Since Yin Jun has said so, then we can arrange this important actor of Jiashi.
"After the filming of "Bao Qingtian", what will Xiaofan do?" Liang Shuyi said concernedly, Wei Xiaofan is an actor she admires very much, with good acting skills, good character, and not causing trouble. Such an actor should be trained well.
"Brother Wei has been filming for so long, you can take a break, and then I have a script, and now I have a clue, but I need him to experience the role that the script requires. It will take about three months." Yin Jun said so.
"What experience role?" Liang Shuyi asked curiously.
"Lawyer." Yin Jun said two words lightly.
Liang Shuyi nodded and didn't ask any further.
It's not that she is not interested in Yin Jun's new script, but that she knows that even if Yin Jun treats someone badly, he will not treat his eldest brother badly. The role he gave to Wei Xiaofan is absolutely outstanding.
"Actually I think..."
Ling Xuhua, who had not spoken all the time, pondered and said, "The role of Yu Zhanzhao given by Hui Tian is very good, isn't it a pity that we don't need him now?"
"The actor contract is not signed at Jiashi, how dare you use him again?" Liu Tianci said with a smile, "Xuhua, Mr. Dongguo, we can't do it!"
After Liu Tianci said this, Ling Xuhua stopped talking.
The difference in character and popularity bestowed by Hui Tian is a great contrast to his role.
Such a person, even if he has some ability and fame, should not deal with him more, or he will suffer from it one day.
