Mei Zihan was still a little dazed when he received the call from Wen Mingjiang.
Wen Mingjiang picked a good time, which happened to be his lunch break.
"Director Wen, are you so free? What do you want from me?" Mei Zihan yawned unconsciously.
Yesterday's scene had to be filmed at night, until three or four o'clock in the night, and the work started at eight o'clock in the morning, and he was almost sleepy.
"I'm on TV right now, waiting for my "My Stepfather" to be broadcast." Wen Mingjiang's voice trembled, "I only watched the first two episodes, and it will be my turn soon. As the lead actor of this show, I think I need to call you and talk."
"Director, don't be nervous." Mei Zihan understood, Wen Mingjiang couldn't find anyone to share with him, he was so nervous that he was about to die.
"Where's screenwriter Zhang?" Mei Zihan felt that it would be better to find a professional to talk about this kind of matter.
"The teacher went to the toilet."
"It's still screenwriter Zhang who can hold his breath." Mei Zihan sighed.
"No, this is the third time the teacher has gone there in an hour." Wen Mingjiang said sadly, "This is the first time the teacher called his good friend for help, otherwise how could our drama be included in the screening of Blue Sky Satellite TV ?”
Mei Zihan almost fell off the bed when he heard the words "Blue Sky Satellite TV".
"What, Blue Sky Satellite TV? Are you sure?" Mei Zihan's voice became tense.
Blue Sky Satellite TV, he never thought about it.
On this broadcast, the ratings broke 1 and stabilized.
"I... I didn't expect it either." Wen Mingjiang became more nervous, "I originally asked for CCTV, but the teacher refused. If we are selected this time, our TV series can be broadcast as the opening drama of Blue Sky Satellite TV."
God knows how many times Wen Mingjiang pinched himself when he heard the news.
Directors and actors like them are all unknown. How can they dare to hope for Blue Sky Satellite TV? If a TV station is willing to ask for it, it is already burning high incense.
"Is today April Fool's Day?" Mei Zihan asked blankly.
He was very sure at first, but now he is not sure what day it is.
He has acted in plays for so many years, but none of them have been shown on Blue Sky Satellite TV.
"Absolutely not!" Wen Mingjiang affirmed, "Ah, the person in charge of the Ocean Entertainment Company just went in, and they also have works participating in this preview."
"Director Wen, hold on, don't be nervous." Your nervousness made me nervous too.
Mei Zihan's drowsiness dissipated completely.
Even if he didn't attend the preview, he still felt his heart was lifted together with Wen Mingjiang.
"The teacher is here. Teacher, I'm on the phone with Mei Zihan, would you like to talk to me... oh, yes. I won't talk to you, it will be us soon." Wen Mingjiang made a call and hung up quickly Telephone.
"I rely on it!"
Mei Zihan couldn't help but curse out.
Do not bring such ah.
Now he is getting nervous, why did he hang up the phone all of a sudden? How can he sleep now, how can he be in the mood to continue the afternoon acting
When Zhao wanted to come in, he saw Mei Zihan's excited face, as if he was looking for something convenient to vent.
... There is no such scene in the play in the afternoon.
Zhao Yao was stunned for a moment, not wanting to disturb her, and decided to go to another dormitory to chat with someone.
Mei Zihan may be under too much pressure, but he still doesn't want to cause trouble for others.
"Are you ready?" Screenwriter Zhang turned to look at his students.
"Okay, okay." Wen Mingjiang tried to straighten his chest.
He was still wearing a suit he had just bought, just for today.
Wen Mingjiang almost knelt down to the teacher when he knew that the teacher had found him a connection with Blue Sky Satellite TV. When I heard the teacher say that it might be the beginning of the new year, I almost fainted.
This is the first time he knows that the teacher is so awesome
The teacher also hides too deeply!
Unfathomable!
"It's also a matter of luck. Blue Sky Satellite TV's favorite TV series have been snatched away, and they want to play Tian Ji's horse racing. Our episodes are short, and we don't follow the family carnival route. The price is low, so there is still hope." Screenwriter Zhang comforted himself, "You have to believe in the quality of our drama."
Wen Mingjiang made a bitter face.
This is his first work, and there is no comparison, how can he believe it
In Wen Mingjiang's own opinion, this "My Stepfather" is simply a divine drama. But the subjective factors are too serious, completely affecting his objectivity!
"Okay, what are you afraid of, let's go in." Screenwriter Zhang patted Wen Mingjiang on the shoulder, not only to encourage him, but also to encourage himself.
Hold on, Zhang Ziwen.
This is an opportunity that Lao Li managed to get for you.
Believe in "My Stepfather", it will definitely win.
The people in charge and directors of major film and television companies came to the preview meeting. They not only prepared the materials of the TV series, but also prepared some personal information and data of the leading actors of the TV series. After all, the quality of TV series also depends on the attractiveness of the leading actors.
Originally, Wen Mingjiang prepared a copy if he wanted to, but was vetoed by screenwriter Zhang.
They were originally a three-no drama crew, and the dramas that Mei Zihan had acted in the past could only be superfluous, so it is better to rely on quality to fight.
Blue Sky Satellite TV has been able to dominate local stations for so many years, and its professional quality is beyond doubt.
They are not short of money, what they are short of is drama, as long as the quality is good, everything else is just a show.
Inside the screening.
The TV crews are already getting sleepy.
In the afternoon, when they were sleepy, they watched TV dramas all morning, and their heads got dizzy.
Among the dramas I watched in the morning, there are IP dramas, Family Carnival, and remakes. If you want to talk about the bright spots, there are all of them, but if you want to talk about the shortcomings, there are many.
The best one so far is "Two Swords and Three Heroes", a new drama of martial arts novels. Although there are countless previous editions, this one can be regarded as remarkable.
What's interesting is that the main personnel of this show are all newcomers, but the elder characters in it are from the leading actors of the previous version of "Two Swords and Three Heroes". At that time, you can market points such as "two generations of actors gather together", so you don't have to worry about lack of topicality.
Feelings are never out of date.
"The next one, "My Stepfather", was recommended by Lao Li."
"That's right, it's this one."
"Sure enough, it's Zhang Ziwen's handwriting, and it fits the characteristics of CCTV."
"You can tell what it is just by the name, just take a look."
"I'm so sleepy, let's get it over with."
Wen Mingjiang and screenwriter Zhang stood on the stage, seeing all the people in the audience.
It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no discomfort in my heart.
They obviously didn't have any expectations for "My Stepfather".
Even Vice Minister Li, an old friend of screenwriter Zhang, could only secretly cheer them on.
"Let's get started, believe in yourself. How much effort we put into this show, and how much good things you said to your seniors in order to find an editor." Screenwriter Zhang whispered.
"Yes, teacher." Wen Mingjiang took a deep breath and started playing.
Unlike other TV series, "My Stepfather" doesn't have so many production companies and long cast lists to release. The title also completely abandons the characters, and uses farmland and sewing machines with period characteristics as the opening.
"Huh?"
A few people were a little surprised, but this opening title has a lot to offer.
The picture is old, but with amazing beauty.
The camera turns from the farmland and the sewing machine to a meadow with wildflowers.
The three child actors walked forward happily with their schoolbags on their backs.
Only the back.
Gradually, the three of them grew bigger and bigger, and their clothes got better and better.
They walked and walked into a house.
The table in the house was full of food, and a young man sat there quietly. When three people pushed the door and came in, the young man suddenly became old, and then beckoned them to come over for dinner.
The four characters "My Stepfather" appeared on the screen.
Seeing the staff's eyes gradually focused, Wen Mingjiang calmed down unexpectedly.
This title was suggested by Mei Zihan's friend Jiang Ying.
"My Stepfather" is a TV series that knows the theme just by the name, and there are not many familiar faces for the audience. In addition, the makeup of this drama is just like that, and the color tone is not bright. If you use conventional The beginning of the game is undoubtedly inferior.
That being the case, it is better to use a long lens to solve it.
Wen Mingjiang is very good at listening to other people's suggestions. After the title came out, the teacher also gave it a very high evaluation, so he can use it with confidence.
Anyway, their crew has nothing, and it doesn't matter if there is another unconventional opening!
As long as it can attract people's attention, it is extremely worthwhile.
The first episode officially begins.
A close-up of a pair of vicissitudes of eyes coming up.
Gradually, the camera zoomed out, and a handsome young face appeared on the screen. He was wearing filial piety, obviously guarding the spirit of others.
From his face, one could see the intertwined expression of sadness and bewilderment, the intertwined youthfulness and vicissitudes, which instantly attracted people's attention.
"Although he is an unfamiliar face, his emotions are well handled." A person sighed in a low voice.
Soon, there was a burst of noise outside the mourning hall.
Just five minutes.
The general plot line is fully unfolded, and the memory begins.
The protagonist of the beautiful portrait in the mourning hall also appeared on the screen.
…
The first three episodes are over in no time.
The heroine died in the second episode, and all of the heroine's children were taken away by her ex-husband. The pace is quite fast, and every message sent is useful. Whether the overall tone is good or the acting skills of the actors are good, they are all top-notch.
No, that's not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that the curiosity of the people on the TV station has been aroused, even if they actually know what is going to be played next.
A TV series that makes people can't wait to watch it means success in itself.
"Mingjiang, we won!"
