Chapter 141 Persuasion (Second Update! Ask for a Subscription! Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
In the past few days, in terms of movies, "Ghost Fighting Ghosts" unexpectedly brought surprises to people. In terms of TV, a producer named Xu Ke also brought surprises to everyone.
Although the "Legend of the White-Haired Witch" supervised by him was only broadcast at 11 o'clock in the evening, the average viewership rate of the first five episodes was as high as 37%, overwhelming the wireless "Happy Tonight" with a slight advantage. Halfway, and Rei's TV series.
Even Jin Yong, who usually doesn't write reviews for other people's TV adaptations, couldn't help but write an article to praise, "This drama is quite chivalrous and immortal. When I was drinking tea with Brother Chen, it was the first time I heard Brother Chen praise someone who can make a difference. My own novels are so well shot, and if Xu Ke, the producer, can maintain this style, his future achievements will be limitless.”
Okay.
Everyone knows Jin Yong's position in the literary world, and Xiangjiang is Jin Yong's home court. Many people have grown up reading his novels. Now when they hear Jin Yong, they praise "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" so much. Well, of course, I have to take a look.
As a result, the audience rating of the sixth episode of "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" suddenly broke through 40%, reaching 42%. Although it shrank back two days later, its popularity is still rising.
Jiashi is also surprised by inexplicable surprises, and some people are also happy and regretful.
These people think that if "The White-Haired Witch" came earlier, they wouldn't need to ask Yin Jun to write the script, and just let Xu Ke supervise another one.
However, Liang Shuyi scoffed at such a naive idea.
Over the years, she has watched hundreds of TV dramas and knows no less than 100 producers, so she has her own excellent judgment on the production of TV dramas and the ability of producers.
For example, Xu Ke, Liang Shuyi knows that he is a very thoughtful and capable person, but the problem is that he is too immature. He has just started his own attempts and has not yet formed a complete personal system.
Many people think that the two TV dramas produced by Xu Ke are very good, but Liang Shuyi has seen that Xu Ke is most interested in martial arts dramas now, and he is also making progress through continuous attempts, but now it is nothing more than that. Even martial arts dramas can't be controlled to the best, let alone other genres.
Why does Liang Shuyi see it this way?
It's very simple, look at the two TV series produced by Xu Ke, the first "Golden Sword Lover" has only 8 episodes; the second "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" has only 20 episodes.
This means that Xu Ke can only control the TV series to this extent. If it is extended to 40 or 80 episodes, it is very likely to get out of control, and the level will be very different.
It is a kind of ability to be able to make TV series short and concise.
But a more powerful producer will shoot the TV series for more than 100 episodes, and then the level of each episode is good.
Xu Ke will not reach his peak now, and if he wants to reuse him, he will have to wait at least another year or two.
Yin Jun is different.
Why is Yin Jun called a genius?
It is because he was able to write long-form TV dramas very well from the very beginning. The 208-episode "Bao Qingtian" and the 120-episode "Wulin Biography", although there are clever elements such as chapters and unit categories, but they even wrote it down. Hundreds of episodes of the script will not be broken, and the writing is so beautiful and stable, this is the ability, and this is what other people can't do.
And there is another point, if in the past, Liang Shuyi felt that she could find a different person to write the script, and gradually reduce her reliance on Yin Jun's script, when she took back the scripts of "The Man in the Net" and "The Falcon" , After everyone's discussion and evaluation, Liang Shuyi no longer thinks about those who have and don't.
Yin Jun is irreplaceable!
This is Liang Shuyi's strongest idea now.
A genius screenwriter who can span between martial arts and fashion dramas, a screenwriter who can analyze human nature so thoroughly with "The Man in the Net", and a screenwriter who can use "Falcon" to analyze emotions such as justice and evil, light and darkness, persistence and wavering. A talented screenwriter who expresses it to the fullest, that can really be regarded as almighty!
Since Yin Jun is so omnipotent, is it still rare for him to write a script?
It is conceivable that after Yin Jun settles and improves more, he will also be familiar with other types of scripts, and he will be able to do it at his fingertips.
For such a future, Liang Shuyi has no doubts.
Because after seeing Yin Jun's success, she still maintains the poor, conscientious, and diligent attitude that she had before. It is simply unimaginable that such a person will not have greater achievements in the future.
Of course, this did not prevent Liang Shuyi from enthusiastically supporting Xu Ke.
Among all the producers, Xu Ke received second only to the ace producer Xiao Sheng in terms of resources and support.
If it wasn't for Xu Ke to make "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch", "Shen Shengyi" would definitely be his dish, and Lin Lingdong would not be able to find this great deal.
Speaking of "Shen Shengyi", Lin Lingdong couldn't convince Zhang Guorong himself, so he could only move Yin Jun out.
Yin Jun came forward to invite Zhang Guorong to dinner, although he knew it must be for "Shen Shengyi", but Zhang Guorong agreed without saying a word.
Whether Zhang Guorong is famous or before, he is a person who knows gratitude.
When Yin Jun was in a very difficult time, he gave him a song "A Dream of New Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies", although it was not directly given to him, and there was Xiao Sheng's favor in it, but if Yin Jun hadn't written this song , if Yin Jun hadn't agreed with Zhang Guorong to sing this song, "The Dream of the New Mandarin Duck and Butterfly" would not belong to him, and there would be no such thing as his popularity.
Therefore, despite having different views, Zhang Guorong came to the appointment very readily.
The place to eat is in a clean Italian restaurant. Zhang Guorong likes to eat western food, so Lin Lingdong naturally has to do what he likes.
Yin Jun doesn't reject Italian food either. After all, when he lived alone in his previous life, he would eat pasta from time to time.
"A-Jun, you are so boring!" Zhang Guorong couldn't help complaining to Yin Jun as soon as they met, "Maomao dumped me, and said you supported her too! Say it! What's wrong with me? what?"
This is the second time that Yin Jun wants to slap Mao Shunyun twice, this girl really has a big mouth.
Although she and Zhang Guorong are not together, they are both good, but there is no need to pull herself out as a shield, right?
But fortunately, although Zhang Guorong was very aggressive, there was no anger on his face, just a little resentment.
"Brother Rong, isn't it obvious?" Yin Jun could only say: "What do you like is the kind of little bird who is dependent on people, or the kind of queen who can eat you, Mao Mao is purely a boy's character, serious Think about it, where is right for you?"
"Fuck you, what queen?" Zhang Guorong glared at Yin Jun, "How can I allow a woman to climb on top of my head?"
"If you want me to tell you, there's nothing wrong with the Queen." Yin Jun said.
"I won't tell you this, but I want to see if you are looking for the queen in the future." Zhang Guorong shrugged, "But you are right, I actually think that Mao Mao is not very suitable for me. But at that time, my face couldn't be wiped off, so...that's fine, if you get dumped, you'll be dumped, there is no grass anywhere in the world!"
Yin Jun smiled, "Actually, with your fame, I'm afraid it won't be easy to choose a girlfriend in the future. So I really think the queen is right for you, Brother Rong."
"Fuck off!"
Zhang Guorong waved his hand and was about to argue with Yin Jun for a few more words. The waiter here had already delivered the ordered meal.
Then, unsurprisingly, she asked Zhang Guorong to give her a signature, and the open-minded Zhang Guorong naturally agreed.
Seeing the waitress who got her wish leave happily, Lin Lingdong here has a chance to speak, "Young Master Rong, it seems that you really have to wear sunglasses when you go out in the future."
Zhang Guorong laughed, obviously a little proud.
"Brother Rong, you are too unmotivated." Yin Jun said by the way.
Zhang Guorong got angry when he heard it, "Hey, I said Ajun, you don't need to say that to me, right? Isn't it because I didn't agree to play your role? If you can't explain what you just said today, I'll go tell Zhilin tomorrow. You have two boats on your feet, and you are also hooking up with Ayu!"
Yin Jun quickly raised his hands and surrendered immediately, "Brother Rong, you can't frame things like this, can you? How could I do this?"
"It doesn't mean it won't happen in the future. I see the way Ayu looks at you. It's absolutely like there is a hook, and I want to hook you." Zhang Guorong said, "That is, she is a little younger, if she is a few years older, I see you suffer!"
"Dare you know that she is young? Brother Rong, is she only 12 years old this year?" Yin Jun coughed lightly.
"Don't think I didn't study, in ancient China, many people got married at the age of 12!" Zhang Guorong looked at Yin Jun proudly, "You just want to apologize to me honestly, don't make all those gags. , I'll tell you, Brother Rong, I don't eat this set."
"I'm really not talking nonsense." Yin Jun smiled slightly, "Brother Rong, you can understand that when you think about it, there is still a big gap between a singer and a superstar who is both a singer and a movie star, right?"
"Teng Lijun is only a singer, but she is more famous than a movie star!" Zhang Guorong retorted, "To tell you the truth, if I hadn't had a contract with Li's, I wouldn't want to shoot that "Huanhua Washing Sword Record" either. , it's so boring!"
"Deng Lijun is also prosperous in the Chinese circle, and Japan and South Korea are still groping! And that is now, in the future, the development of the Chinese circle will still be the same as that of Europe and the United States." Yin Jun said, "Now you are in the world. Look, is John Denver famous, or Alain Delon?"
John Denver is the most famous singer in the music world today. Before Michael Jackson was famous, he was a unique superstar.
And Alain Delon is now the most famous superstar in the world. This Frenchman is called "the most handsome man in the world", and because of the brilliant classic "Zorro" three years ago, he has been praised by countless people. of fans.
Facing Yin Jun's question, Zhang Guorong could only answer honestly: "Alain Delon knows more people."
"That's right." Yin Jun said, "Besides, from an industry point of view, the competition in singing is much greater than the competition in acting. Unless you sing unparalleled in the world, you are just a star in the region. , and Chinese songs will never be able to dominate in today's world environment, which is doomed that you cannot become a world-class superstar. Acting is different, as long as you perform well, then they will be translated into their country's language, The audience is chasing after you as if they were chasing after Li Xiaolong back then, doesn't that make you a world-class superstar?"
"You put it lightly, there is only one Li Xiaolong." Zhang Guorong retorted.
The world is now dominated by Americans, to be precise, dominated by whites, and the Chinese side has been in decline for a long time.
It is not easy for a Chinese star to appear on the mainstream stage of the world, let alone become a famous star?
It is because of this that Li Xiaolong is popular all over the world, so he will be respected by the people of Hong Kong.
In fact, before Li Xiaolong became popular in Europe and the United States, he was just a very good star, far from reaching the status of being revered as a "generation master".
"It's not that people who can play stars are popular. Last year's "Star Wars", Harrison Ford didn't know martial arts, did he? Don't you still act in action sci-fi movies?" Yin Jun said, "Brother Rong, you didn't realize it yourself, In fact, you are naturally suitable for acting... It's not that your appearance is too handsome, but you have a melancholy nobleman's air, if you carve it well, you must be able to make a lot of difference... If you don't believe me, you can ask Brother."
Lin Lingdong is willing to do anything as long as he can deceive Zhang Guorong into his crew.
Hearing this, he nodded again and again, "Yes! Brother, let me tell you the truth, although A-Jun is also a handsome boy, he is far worse than you, Rong Shao! I haven't even seen you in Xiangjiang. The second person who is more handsome than you. The setting of "Shen Shengyi" is handsome and handsome, which suits you best."
Zhang Guorong smiled and said nothing.
"Think about it, do you want to be a superstar who can only sing, or a superstar who can go hand in hand with music and film and create miracles that others can't achieve?" Yin Jun said, "I think your character Rong should be to do it. Just do the best, and never go with the flow, am I wrong?"
Zhang Guorong spread his hands, "Don't use this trick, I still want to tell you, I don't eat this!"
"What I'm saying is the truth." Yin Jun said, "unless you don't like the feeling of being watched by everyone and being sought after by everyone, then you should start with TV dramas to practice your skills and gradually accumulate experience, and become a master at around 30 years old. The number one star in Asia, and then see if there is a chance to develop in Europe and the United States."
Does Zhang Guorong like the feeling of being sought after?
Of course I like it!
He has never been short of money since he was a child, so what he pursues is this feeling of being a star.
Hearing Yin Jun's description in such detail, such a path, really moved him quite a bit.
Upon seeing this, Yin Jun winked at Lin Lingdong again, and he said knowingly, "Young Master Rong, although I don't have much experience, we can discuss this drama together and make progress together. Do you believe that I, I will try my best to help you figure out the role. The play "Shen Shengyi" was written by A Jun himself, don't you still believe his strength? Playing this role, you will definitely make progress!"
Having said that, how could Zhang Guorong refuse, in fact, he came to the banquet, which already represented an attitude.
So, he nodded and said: "Since this is the case, then I will act! But on the side of "Wulin Gaiden", you need to connect. In addition, Li's "Huanhua Washing Sword Record", It can only be delayed for three or five days at most, otherwise I will not be able to explain it."
"no problem!"
Lin Lingdong was so excited that he almost clenched his fists and yelled.
Mother's!
Finally gnawed on this hard bone!
Now that everything is ready, if I, Lao Lin, can't make this movie well, I will quit my job and go home and sell fish balls! !
