389: Another New Type
The script is the foundation of a play, which is the textual expression of a TV series or movie.
In other words, the production of TV series and movies starts with the script. The industry often complains about the lack of good scripts. In the final analysis, the current TV series and movies market is relatively chaotic, so everyone's choice of script themes has become a matter of opinion. Some want to follow the trend, so they look at whether the theme has successful cases, and some want to be surprising, so they choose whether the theme is new and whether no one has written it.
There is a saying that "a director may use a very good script to make a very bad movie, but he will never use a very bad script to make a very good movie."
A good script is one of the prerequisites for presenting a good TV series and a good movie, and it is also the core content of a work.
In layman's terms, the script and the story are closely combined. A good script may contain one or more good stories, because a good story can grasp the audience's emotions in the ups and downs of the plot, making you cry, laugh, fear, anger, think deeply, and even resonate with you.
Jiang Ge spent most of the day going through the scripts sent by Meng Liang.
There were no major problems, but they had some minor problems that some domestic mystery dramas have, such as too simple reasoning, so that they had to use local customs, family matters, human relations, and personnel relationships to make up for the shortcomings in reasoning.
He marked the problems one by one and gave directions for modification. As long as these were improved, the script would be at least 8 points.
"Ah..."
After sending the email and completing another important task, Jiang Ge stretched his waist, took a deep breath, tightened his muscles, and hummed comfortably.
It was right to set up a screenwriter department. If I wrote it all by myself, it would take more than several months.
It was much easier to give them the main story and let them expand the plot. If they found any problems, they would pick them out and revise them.
Jiang Ge looked at the time and there was still an hour before he got off work. He suddenly remembered the beta version of the stand-alone game "Legend of Sword and Fairy" sent by Chen Gan a few days ago. He was too busy at the time and said he would play it when he was free, but he forgot it.
He opened the drawer of the work desk, took out the mobile hard disk, and connected it to the computer.
The client interface is well designed, concise and clear, and has a strong fairy style. The exquisite images of Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Linger occupy half of the screen.
After logging in, the selection interface is the dynamic Peach Blossom Island, and the background music is also "Peach Blossom Island".
There are four characters to choose from in the game, namely Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru and Jiu Jianxian. The fighting method is real-time combat. While borrowing a lot of traditional action game combat logic, there are also many self-created features, providing two attack methods: physical skills and fairy skills.
Jiang Ge gave a lot of suggestions in this regard. Overall, it is more inclined to the faster-paced combat mode of "Devil May Cry", which has high requirements for the upper and lower limits of player operation. Light players can choose a lower difficulty and can also fully reap the pleasure of real-time combat. It is also relatively friendly to old fans who have never played action games.
The picture quality is at the level of 3A masterpieces, and the lighting is simply like a fairy. In the foggy night, the scene of moonlight falling on the trees is particularly intoxicating, and the biggest highlight is the water body. Not only does it look like real river water in terms of color, but the waves on the water surface when the boat is moving and the reflection of the sun on the water surface are amazing.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it is worthy of a game that cost 500 million yuan. The picture is nothing to say, but... if the sales are at a loss, Chen Gan will not break up with me."
You know, the most expensive stand-alone game in China, "Gods and Demons", only cost 100 million yuan to make.
Jiang Ge swallowed unconsciously. Chen Gan is a good person. His investment is really worth spending money.
"My Chairman Jiang, no matter how busy you are, you have to eat." I don’t know how long it took, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in the office.
Jiang Ge looked up and saw Zhou Lingwei walking towards him with her hands behind her back and smiling.
At this time, I realized that the sun had set.
"I was so absorbed in playing games that I didn't pay attention to the time." Jiang Ge laughed dryly.
"Did you lose again?" Zhou Lingwei walked slowly to his side.
"It's not "Honor of Kings", it's the beta version of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" sent by Chen Gan. I just finished work and there was an hour left before work, so I planned to try it out." Jiang Ge explained.
"Is it fun?" Zhou Lingwei asked.
She is not a game fan, she occasionally plays "Honor of Kings" with Jiang Ge or Chu Pianpian.
"It's fun." Jiang Ge commented.
He is not a game fan either. He played more games on Earth in his previous life, such as "Legend of Sword and Fairy", "Gu Jian Qi Tan", "League of Legends", "Honor of Kings", and "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
"Can two people play together?" Zhou Lingwei asked again.
"Yes, there is a two-player mode, but you need to use a controller." Jiang Ge replied.
"Okay." Zhou Lingwei pursed her lips and said, "Do you want to continue playing, or..."
Jiang Ge quit the game, turned off the computer, unplugged the mobile hard drive, and said, "Go home and play again."
In fact, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" not only has the funds of Chen Gan and his nephew, but also the copyright as a shareholder, so he has a share of the losses and profits.
However, judging from the content of the trial play of more than two hours, it is very playable and a good game. We just have to wait for market feedback after the sale.
Because whether a game, especially a 3A masterpiece, is fun or not is not determined by the production company, but by the players.
——————
The next day, the second Golden Melody Awards was held as scheduled at the Hangzhou Grand Theater. Jiang Ge and a group of Huafeng artists attended in their best attire.
Because it was held in the middle of the year, the songs of the previous year were evaluated.
Jiang Ge continued his glory and won several awards.
"In the Name of the Father" - Best Song Award.
"In the Name of the Father" - Best Composer Award.
"If Love Has Destiny" - Best Lyricist Award.
"In the Name of the Father" - Best Arranger Award.
"Chi Ling" - Best Traditional Music Interpretation Award.
"In the Name of the Father" - Best Single Producer Award.
...
Among Huafeng artists, only Xu Chenyi gained something. With "In the Name of the Father", he won the Best Male Singer Award and was crowned the "King of Songs".
It took him only two years to make a gorgeous turn, from a much-criticized traffic star to a new traffic star with both strength and appearance.
At the same time, it also declared that Jiang Ge's road to superstardom was successful.
This entertainment industry topic king once again dominated the entertainment section of major news websites.
"As soon as "In the Name of the Father" was released, he went on stage to receive the award!"
"The nominees change, but Jiang Ge is always there!"
"Without Jiang Ge, there is no golden song!"
"There will be "Blue and White Porcelain" written and sung by himself in the next session, which is a bit unimaginable."
"Will he win ten awards next year?"
"The Chinese music scene will belong to Jiang Ge in the next ten years!"
...
It's not that Jiang Ge is too strong, but that the Chinese music scene is in a period of change.
After the 21st century, the Internet and mobile communications developed rapidly, and China is the fastest growing market in the world, and therefore has a channel advantage. The "traditional record industry model of the Chinese music scene" has become a thing of the past, and the "Internet era of the Chinese music scene" is finding a correct path.
I believe that in the near future, the Chinese music scene with a hundred flowers blooming and gods fighting will reappear.
Jiang Ge's popularity and topicality hit new highs, but the discussion of "Young Justice Bao" gradually disappeared from the public's sight; the competition between Zhang Liming and Liu Ronghua for new songs came to an end, and "I Just Like You" won "Every Day We Walked Together" with a slight advantage; "Blue and White Porcelain" was as steady as an old dog, winning 93 daily championships on the music chart in a row; "Brother Who Overcame All Troubles" was more exciting than the previous one, becoming the hottest variety show this summer.
After a month's vacation, Jiang Ge summoned all directors to the company for a meeting.
"Several nursing homes and welfare homes have been contacted. Do we need to release the news to the media when the time comes?" Before the people came, Mo Lan reported on the work first.
"No need, these things are not done for others to see." Jiang Ge shook his head and said calmly.
Celebrities have the habit of doing charity, some for their own interests, some to create their own personality, and some simply to show their love.
And his purpose of doing charity is just to continue what his father did before.
When Jiang Yong mentioned this, Jiang Ge agreed without any hesitation, without any reason or idea.
However...
At that time, the last clip of the movie "Personal Customization" emerged in his mind.
[Reporter asked Ge You: "If you have one million, can you donate it?"
Ge You replied: "Yes."
Reporter asked again: "If you have 10 million, are you willing to donate it?"
Ge You replied: "I am willing to"
Reporter asked again: "What if you have 100 million?"
Ge You replied: "I will donate 1 billion."
Reporter then asked: "If you have a car, are you willing to donate it?"
Ge You replied: "I am not willing to."
Reporter puzzled: "You have donated 1 billion, why are you reluctant to donate a car?"
Ge You replied: "Because I really have a car!"]
Since Jiang Ge did not debut as a singer or actor, did not accept GG endorsements, and rarely appeared on TV shows, let alone making money, even the company's artists are strictly controlled, so every penny earned is earned by works. In this case, it is difficult to donate 100 million every year and be very low-key.
Mo Lan had nothing to say about this. If he had been an agent, he would have definitely made a fuss about this matter and established the image of a "good person". However, after following Jiang Ge, he looked at things from a different perspective, and "interests" were no longer the first priority.
In fact, Jiang Ge later found a reason for himself, or he could say that he had built a memorial archway for himself. The money was considered as copyright fees for those Earth Entertainment Resources.
After chatting about the details of the charity event, such as which artists went to which places, what to buy, and what programs to perform, Huang Tao, Zhu Ping, Zhou Ran, Shi Changxin, and Qi Hu, the current five directors of Huafeng, were all present.
"Everyone, you have worked hard in the first half of the year..." Jiang Ge first thanked everyone for their efforts, and then said: "I have discussed the arrangements for the second half of the year with Producer Mo. Of course, if you want to continue to rest, you can tell me."
Hearing this, the five of them said that a month of rest was enough.
Before joining Huafeng, after filming a play, you had to wait for half a year, a year, or even two or three years before you could film another play. You don't want to live that kind of life again.
"Okay." Jiang Ge nodded slightly and said: "The arrangement is like this. Zhou Ran and Qi Hu are responsible for "Fast and Furious Prequel 2", Huang Tao is responsible for the second season of "Forensic Qin Ming", Zhu Ping is responsible for "Corpse", and Shi Changxin If so, wait a while and join the animation team of the special effects department as the action director of the new animation.”
"clear."
…
Everyone said in unison.
Immediately, Jiang Ge distributed the script to them, and left the remaining time to Mo Lan to arrange the formation of the team.
After the meeting ended and everyone left, Mo Lan asked, "Are you going to take a break in the second half of the year? Not filming, singing, or acting?"
When Jiang Ge heard this, he smiled and said, "I'm the chairman, so it's not good to do these things all the time."
Mo Lan narrowed his eyes and said, "You didn't say that. Do you like it?"
Jiang Ge nodded and said, "That's true. Filming is really fun. Through the harmonious composition of the camera monitor, I can tell the actors about the drama to inspire them, and use a profound personal style to construct audio-visual art."
Mo Lan's eyes flashed and she said, "Then, filming will take place in the second half of the year?"
Jiang Ge smiled slightly, pushed the remaining folder on the table, and said: "I've been thinking about the new script, let's see how it goes."
Mo Lan suddenly became energetic and immediately opened the folder.
