Chapter 45 0045: Finalizing the Script

Afternoon.

Gong Li and Gu Yao came to the company.

It was the first time they met Jiang Ge, the new chairman who took over the company, and they felt mixed emotions.

They were acting in Hengdian, and suddenly heard that the company had a big problem and almost all the people had left, and they were directly torn on the spot.

When they were at a loss, they heard that the chairman's son, who had a bad reputation, took over the son, which was like adding insult to injury.

When they were desperate for their career, they heard that Jiang Ge led Lin Yu and Qin Shiyue to kill in the Chinese music scene, and they were immediately dumbfounded.

In just a few months, the emotions were ups and downs, like riding a roller coaster, and they couldn't afford to be hurt.

Jiang Ge also met the only remaining actors in the two companies for the first time. Next, they had to rely on them to solve this urgent matter [the script of the TV series "Jianghu" was delivered and the filming began].

"Please take a seat, both of you."

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang."

...

After a simple and plain greeting, the two sides looked at each other, because more problems can be seen at close range than on the big screen.

Gong Li and Gu Yao's first impression of Jiang Ge was a sunny and handsome face with messy hair and a naughty smile, which highlighted his unruly nature.

To be honest, judging by the eyes alone, he is much closer to the image of the idle playboy who hangs out in Hangzhou bars all day with beautiful women.

As for Jiang Ge, he has memorized the information of the two people.

Gong Li, 32 years old, from a grassroots background, has joined Huafeng Media for ten years. He has played supporting roles with average roles such as the boss of a company in urban dramas, the elder of a sect in ancient costume dramas, and the eunuch in the palace in historical dramas.

Gu Yao, 30 years old, graduated from Shanxi Provincial Media College, has joined Huafeng Media for five years. He has played supporting roles with average roles such as the best friend of the second female lead in urban dramas, the sister of the female lead in ancient costume dramas, and the court lady in historical dramas.

After years of accumulation, his acting skills have been perfected, and he is a real talent.

But...

Jiang Ge looked at Gong Li, smacked his lips three times, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, and said: "Gong, your photo in the company information is a bit over-Photoshopped."

Originally, his appearance was 85 points, but after meeting, it was only 70 points.

Gong Li never expected that Jiang Ge's first words to him would be like this. He was stunned until Mo Lan on the opposite side coughed lightly to remind him. He came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Ge. His lips moved subconsciously twice, but no sound came out.

You say.

How can people respond to this?

Isn't it normal to photoshop a photo, and he is still an actor.

In the end, he really couldn't guess Jiang Ge's purpose, so he could only smile awkwardly.

Jiang Ge fell into deep thought.

The reason for saying this is not to use a joking way to get closer, but because Gong Li and Gu Yao's appearance is to be used to decide which script to exchange.

As an actor, acting skills are naturally more important. Only acting skills can make the character vivid and specific. Appearance is fixed, but acting skills are ever-changing and can shape many characters.

However.

Some roles need a certain appearance to support them, otherwise there will be a sense of disobedience, such as "The Return of the Condor Heroes". If you let Huang Bo play Yang Guo, that won't work.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly became cold.

Mo Lan seemed to see through Jiang Ge's thoughts. Who would be disappointed with the appearance of an actor for no reason, unless... But Jiang Ge was obviously not, and immediately asked tentatively: "Is it that the setting of the male and female protagonists in the script you have is not very compatible with Gong Li and Gu Yao?"

Hearing this.

Gong Li and Gu Yao's hearts trembled slightly. They had never taken on a play with "male and female protagonists", and the company had never arranged it.

And from what Mo Lan said, Jiang Ge had a script and wanted them to play the male and female protagonists.

Wait.

In addition to writing songs, Jiang Ge can also write scripts?

How could this be so mysterious...

In the end, it doesn't matter who wrote the script, what matters is the quality, and that it can become as popular as Lin Yu and Qin Shiyue.

Which actor enters the industry to play supporting roles for life? Everyone wants to play the protagonist.

Instant.

Three people, six eyes, all looked at Jiang Ge, waiting for his answer.

"Hmm..." Jiang Ge did not speak, but dragged out the sound, and turned his eyes to Gu Yao, looking at her very carefully.

Gu Yao subconsciously lowered her head and eyebrows, feeling unhappy in her heart. The reason was very simple, still affected by the fixed impression spread on the Internet.

Jiang Ge's face warmed up a little, and the previous heavy color was a little less.

At least it was not a complete defeat. Gu Yao's real appearance was not much worse than the photos that had been photoshopped. Although she was thirty years old, she was well maintained and looked much younger than her actual age. Her big eyes were very beautiful, and the powder on her face was not very thick, and you could see a face full of collagen.

Li Ruotong was 29 years old when she played Xiao Long Nu. There is no problem with Gu Yao's age, but the two have completely different temperaments and are two completely different paths. Xiao Long Nu needs to be fresh, refined, elegant and beautiful.

In this way, Gong Li and Gu Yao are not suitable, and "The Return of the Condor Heroes" passes.

Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils?

——Too many main characters will distract attention.

The Smiling, Proud Wanderer?

——Gu Yao can consider a female version of Dongfang Bubai, but Gong Li is not a suitable candidate for Linghu Chong.

Difficult!

In fact, it is easy to find a play that allows Gong Li and Gu Yao to play the leading roles together. There are a lot of martial arts drama scripts with thousands of [superstar value] in the mall.

The problem is that we can't do it this way. For this urgent matter [delivery of the TV series "Jiang Hu" script and start of filming], the old man signed a minimum guarantee agreement with the investor. If he uses ordinary dramas to deal with it, the result will only be a loss and loss of money.

Jiang Ge bent his right index finger and put it on his mouth, his eyes sweeping back and forth between Gong Li and Gu Yao.

Here it comes again...

Gong Li and Gu Yao had to bow their heads under the eaves and dared not make a sound to disturb.

Mo Lan thought Jiang Ge had encountered a problem, and she couldn't help with the script writing, so she could only suggest: "If it doesn't work, you can find a professional screenwriter to revise it."

She lived in Jiang Ge's house for a while, and had a relatively in-depth contact.

The relationship changed from unfamiliar to familiar, but there was no further understanding of talent.

What confused her was that a person could really write songs and scripts that were not related at all?

So, for the script Jiang Ge mentioned, she was more inclined to find someone else to write it.

Jiang Ge ignored him and fixed his eyes on Gu Yao. After a moment, he slapped his thigh and shouted, "Got it!"

Finally.

After a long wait, Jiang Ge spoke, but it scared the three of them.

Mo Lan rarely saw him startled like this, but it was useless to speak. Even a calm person like her couldn't help but get anxious. She raised her voice a few points and asked, "What is the situation now? Please tell us a little bit. We don't know where to start if we want to help."

Jiang Ge smiled, grabbed her hand, and couldn't help but said excitedly, "I got stuck in a dead end. I always wanted to make two people famous with one play, but I was entangled in the choice of the script. I was so confused that I didn't think about changing the angle."

Mo Lan glared at him, pulled her hand back calmly, and said, "You mean, promote one person first?"

Jiang Ge nodded and said, "It's much easier to promote one person. There happens to be such a script."

As he said, he walked towards the desk.

Just like the last time I gave Qin Shiyue the simple score of "Sour and Sweet Is Me", exchange, upload, and print.

Gong Li and Gu Yao are old acquaintances. When they heard the conversation between the two, they looked at each other in surprise.

What...

You haven't even seen the script yet, but you're already thinking about making a few people famous?

Even the gold medal screenwriters in the company who wrote several popular dramas before probably wouldn't dare to say that.

The script is much more complicated than the song, including the explanation of the time and place of the plot, the description of the image characteristics, body movements and inner activities of the characters in the play, the description of the scene and atmosphere, and the requirements for the scenery, lighting, sound effects, etc.

It can even be said that a company specializing in script production needs to work together with many people such as episode screenwriters, line screenwriters, and creative screenwriters when creating a script.

The creative methods and creative concepts are completely different. It's not that you can write a good script just by writing a few good songs.

If it were that simple, there wouldn't be so many garbage TV series appearing every year.

Mo Lan was actually looking forward to it. Jiang Ge had been keeping her appetite for months, and she was finally going to see the script that was touted to be broadcast on CCTV.

Jiang Ge took out A4 paper from the printer slowly and stapled it into books. He did not stop until he had four copies. Then he walked over and distributed the script to them, saying, "This is the first draft of the script. You can take a look at it first, and then discuss how to optimize it."
