"Okay, let's talk about business first." Shen Huan diverted her attention at the right time, "Teacher Fan, do you have any specific ideas about "The Gift of Room No. 7"?"
"Oh, that's right."
Mentioning the main reason for coming here today, Fan Dan quickly concentrated, "Teacher Chu, our Huajing Theater has very rich experience in drama adaptation and performance, which is also first-rate in China. We watched "The Gift of Room No. 7" 》Full text, I found that its main story takes place in prison cell No. 7. This download space is just suitable for our drama performance!
I believe you have seen "Thunderstorm", "xxx", "Teahouse" and other plays before. These are also classic plays performed in a specific environment. Like "The Gift of Room No. 7", they can be performed in the form of drama, allowing everyone to appreciate the outstanding charm of the story! "
"What's specific?" Shen Huan said calmly.
"In terms of script adaptation, of course we hope you can do it yourself..." Fan Dan looked at him and said.
"I don't have time." Shen Huan refused immediately, "You should have a suitable candidate, right?"
"Then let's take Teacher Suihan from our drama theater! She is very good at delicate emotional expressions and has successfully adapted twenty or thirty world famous works." What Fan Dan said just now was also polite. They also have the ability to adapt dramas. There are very strict regulations, and it still needs to be done by someone familiar with it, so that it can best adapt to the performance of the drama.
The plot of "The Gift of Room No. 7" has been expressed very clearly in the book, and Shen Huan also wrote it very delicately, so it is not difficult to adapt it. Handing it to someone familiar is naturally what the theater expects.
"Okay." Shen Huan said, "But I need to read the adapted script."
"No problem. You are the author of the original work. You must think it is good before we have the confidence to star in it." Fan Dan agreed.
After a pause, she added, "As for the candidates, we have decided on some, you can take a look."
While talking, Fan Dan took out a thick stack of information from his bag and handed it to Shen Huan.
Shen Huan didn't know much about the famous drama actors in this world.
When Zhu Mei told him about it yesterday, he went online to look at various situations in the drama industry.
Drama, including the art of opera, in this world is actually better preserved and developed much better than in another world.
At least there is a good drama troupe in every province. There are constant performances in the provincial drama theater every year, and the attendance rate is very high.
The most powerful ones are naturally the several drama troupes in Huajing and Shanghai. Every year, more than half of the box office of drama theaters in major provinces, counties and cities relies on them.
Therefore, the scale of these drama troupes is much larger than that of local ones.
The three most powerful drama troupes are the Huaguo Theater and Huajing Repertory Theater in Huajing, and the Shanghai Repertory Theater in Shanghai.
Huajing Theater, which is now planning to collaborate with Shen Huan, has a very long history and a very strong brand.
"Thunderstorm", "Teahouse", "Guan Hanqing", "The First Floor in the World", etc. are all in their repertoire.
Over the decades, countless famous actors have come out here.
Now their mainstay is 45-year-old Zhong Zekun, an actor who has been in theater for 30 years and can be called the country's national treasure artist.
Zhong Zekun occasionally appears in a TV series or movie, which will trigger many viewers to discuss his acting skills, but without exception, few people can take his roles.
It's just that his name is not included in the candidate list of actors for "The Gift of Room No. 7".
After all, with his status, only the leading actor Jackie Chan is worthy of him.
But the problem is that Li Chenglong has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is not at all like Li Chenglong, who is simple, stupid, or even a little mentally retarded.
So he can only regret missing it.
The actor who plays the leading role, Li Chenglong, is recommended by Beihua: Xu Gu, one of their Three Kings.
Xu Gu is a little chubby, but his appearance is really honest. Although his eyes are very flexible, for an actor of his level, it is definitely not a problem to adjust his image to become Lee Cheng Long's dull and heavy look.
"Teacher Fan." Shen Huan looked at it with some doubts, "This teacher Xu Gu must be at least 160 kilograms, right? As a hard worker, Li Chenglong, although he has a big face, does not weigh more than 130 kilograms. Image-wise Isn’t it a bit inconsistent?”
"As long as you let us do this drama, he will definitely be able to lose about 130 pounds within two months." Fan Dan said without hesitation.
Come on.
Everyone had said so, so Shen Huan didn't want to ask if it was okay.
There is no doubt about the persistence of this group of artists in their art.
Next is the most beautiful heroine in the play, Li Yiyuan when she was a child. Shen Huan saw two lively and beautiful faces.
One is named Zhang Shihan, who is 8 years old and has two years of guest experience in TV series and movies.
The other one is named Li Wei, who is also 8 years old. She started working as a small advertising model at the age of 5 and has been performing for one year.
Shen Huan recalled the movie. Because of the reward from the good master, he could remember every detail of the movie clearly. Of course, he would not forget his little daughter's face.
"Well, I suggest you choose Zhang Shihan as the heroine!" Shen Huan thinks Zhang Shihan has more aura.
"Okay, Zhang Shihan will be the leading actor, but Li Wei also needs to come along." Fan Dan knew that Shen Huan did not understand the rules of drama, "A young actor like this will easily perform poorly if he takes on too heavy a performance task. If With rotating substitutes, neither of them will be too tired, and the performance will be better."
She went on to say, "In fact, we will have a full set of substitutes in the future to prevent the leading actors from having any problems. Of course, you can rest assured that the second set of lineups will definitely be able to perform well, otherwise we would not dare to let them come. Substitute!"
Shen Huan nodded.
He had forgotten that the youngest daughter's role was very important. In a dramatic performance, almost all of them were on stage.
It doesn't matter if it's one or two games, but if it's thirty or fifty games, it will definitely be too much for children.
As for the substitute lineup for talking dramas, it is also normal. After all, dramas are performed every day, so they will inevitably encounter some problems. It is better to be more prepared than not prepared at all.
Next, Shen Huan looked at the choices of club leaders, fraudsters, collusion criminals, model prisoners, and intimidation criminals.
These five main supporting characters also constitute the most critical part of the plot outside the main line.
In Room No. 7, it is precisely because of their cooperation and active care that there is so much warmth and touching feeling.
This is also an important performance that shows the brilliance of humanity in the darkness.
The image conditions of these actors are very similar to those in the book "The Gift of Room No. 7".
As for acting, on the stage of drama, there should be no problem.
After all, it is not easy for a group of people in their thirties and forties to gain a foothold in the field of drama.
Therefore, it can be seen that the people from Beijing Dialect have prepared carefully and want to win the approval of Teacher Chu Liuxiang with their professional attitude and preparation.
Watching Shen Huan finish flipping through the information, Fan Dan was inexplicably a little nervous.
She knew that this was the time to decide her fate.
Whether Huajing Theater can win the drama adaptation rights of "The Gift of Room No. 7" depends on Shen Huan's decision now.
"I think it's pretty good."
Shen Huan covered the information and said this slowly, making Fan Dan breathe a sigh of relief.
"Thank you! Thank you, Teacher Chu!!" She happily extended her hand, "Then I wish us a happy cooperation!"
"Don't be busy yet." Shen Huan shook hands with her first and then said, "What are your rehearsal and performance arrangements like?"
"If you agree, we will decide on these people when we get back. After the Spring Festival, everyone will start gathering to discuss and study the plot, and then make preliminary lines and other preparations." Fan Dan said, "Probably by the end of April at the latest , we will conduct the first comprehensive rehearsal, 4 consecutive rehearsals in May, and we will be able to meet the audience in June."
Shen Huan nodded gently.
The task issued by Haoye is to meet the audience before July.
Drama is also a form of stage expression, so with such a play in the drama, there is no need to worry about Zhu Mei's movie version.
With Zhu Mei's current celebrity status and her usual personality, if she is very strict and strives for excellence, even if she starts preparing the crew after the Spring Festival, I am afraid it will be difficult to release it in July.
Shen Huan knew that fifty years ago, a good drama would take two or three months just to collect and discuss the style, and then to work on the acting skills and rehearsals.
A good classic drama takes at least half a year to complete.
But times have changed now.
Drama actors and teams have more advanced approaches and methods for grasping the whole, and the actors' various experiences have also increased a lot in modern society.
For example, the more than three months of preparation and rehearsal time now are already taken very seriously.
Moreover, Huajing Theater is so serious about taking on such a story that attracts the attention of the whole country, and it will definitely not damage its own brand.
Seeing that Shen Huan was silent, Fan Dan talked about another matter: "As for the profit distribution ratio, I wonder what Teacher Chu thinks? You can tell me whatever you have to say."
"It doesn't matter." Shen Huan shook his head, "What do you do on weekdays?"
"If it's a well-known story, then it's 10%-20%." Fan Dan said. "If it's an ordinary story, just buy it out at prices like 100,000, 200,000, or 500,000."
"I want a 5% share, is that okay?" Shen Huan said smoothly.
"Is this... too little?" Fan Dan was a little surprised, but felt it was reasonable.
Teacher Chu Liuxiang really doesn’t care about money.
But he didn't even ask for 10%, but only asked for 5%. Isn't this too Buddhist
Even if the income from the drama itself is not high, the income from this kind of trickle is actually quite considerable.
With his celebrity status and "The Gift of Room No. 7", Huajing Theater is mentally prepared even if it takes 30% of the net profit.
But now it's only 5%, which is very beyond Fan Dan's needs.
"That's enough, I can't use so much money." Shen Huan smiled.
"You are really a person of noble character." Fan Dan praised from the bottom of his heart.
Fan Dan has met all kinds of people, but he is the only one who is as talented as Shen Huan, has no weird problems, and is indifferent to fame and fortune.
Shen Huan naturally felt bitter in his heart and couldn't express it.
What do I need so much money for
As long as there are too many, the good man will definitely come out and use some tempting conditions to force himself to donate.
For example, if it's money worth one hundred and eighty thousand, only the old man will look down upon it, and only then can he use it with confidence and boldness.
Speaking of which, my life is really miserable!
My current wife has not saved anything at all, and her dream of living on the sidelines for retirement is even more out of reach.
Could it be that from now on, I will really be living on a soft diet
Shen Huan's face showed a hint of worry.
