Of course Zhao Liying and Zhu Yilong are very popular now.
In terms of popularity, they are second only to Yue Guan and Tang Yan now.
This kind of popularity and status are naturally not directly proportional. After this period of time, the two of them will gradually become quiet, but if they are hot, they will be hot.
The audience base is already there.
As long as they don't stretch their hips later, they're basically halfway to success.
Their status has also improved by more than a little bit compared to before.
Therefore, Yue Guan had never thought about inviting the two to guest star before. Friends are friends. Miracle Company sold the second season of "Chuang Ming" at a high price, and the buyer was the contract company behind Zhao Liying and Zhu Yilong.
At that time, Yue Guan did not lower the price because of Zhao Liying and Zhu Yilong.
So he was embarrassed to keep catching Zhao Liying and Zhu Yilong harvesting wool.
Unexpectedly, he was embarrassed and took advantage of Zhang Jizhong.
This great director, who has been famous for a long time, has great connections in all directions, and he managed to get two people under his control without making a fuss.
Yue Guan can only say that he is awesome with a big beard.
It is definitely unrealistic to expect the four of them to take over half of the ratings of "Chuang Ming", but if the four of them appear in the same TV series again, it will not be a big problem to bring in 2% or even 3% of the ratings.
The ratings of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are indeed very stable.
After Zhao Liying left, Yue Guan took the initiative to ask: "Director Zhang, did you find any other big stars to guest star?"
"There is another one, but this one is not what I am looking for. There is a problem with the TV series produced by their company and it is stuck by the superiors. She came to our drama to play a guest role as Cheng Ying, and the superiors gave her company a chance to make changes and let her company The investment will not be wasted.”
"The TV series you were filming was stuck from above?"
Yue Guan was surprised.
The cultural environment in the Dragon Kingdom is much more relaxed than on Earth. Time-travel dramas that change history can be shown on CCTV, and there is also a classification system. Generally speaking, the above gives full creative freedom.
In this case, it can still be stuck on top, so what is it that is being photographed
Yue Guan was curious.
"coming."
Zhang Jizhong reminded him, and Yue Guan hurriedly looked at the door.
Then, my jaw almost dropped.
"Liu Shishi? Is she playing Cheng Ying?"
Yue Guan felt that he didn't even dare to be so sexual.
But Liu Shishi stood in front of him handsomely and went through the audition process with her face paralyzed.
Yue Guan looked at Zhang Jizhong.
Zhang Jizhong coughed lightly and took the initiative to speak: "Yue Guan, what do you think?"
Yue Caring said that if he wanted to comment on his acting skills, there really wasn't anything to comment on, that's just what he meant.
But if you ask me whether I should choose her, then I must choose her.
"I am very satisfied."
Zhang Jizhong nodded: "Then it's settled, you go take the makeup photos."
Liu Shishi thanked her politely but distantly, and then left the room.
Yue Guan felt as if he was in a dream.
"Director Zhang, I think Liu Shishi doesn't seem to be willing to play Cheng Ying?"
"Of course she doesn't want to. After all, she is a popular actress. Playing a supporting role in a TV series is tantamount to lowering her status. Who makes their company look down upon her? She has to seek death. She is the first sister of their company, and the company has The question is, can she not contribute to the company?"
"Liu Shishi's company, Tang Ren? What did Tang Ren shoot? Why did he offend the superiors?"
"'Pocahontas,' have you heard of it?"
"Pocahontas?"
Yue Guan came to think of it: "Is it the novel by Hei Huo Qubing?"
"Yes, that novel is sick, and their company is even sicker. Popular idols like Liu Shishi, Hu Ge, and Peng Yuyan make a TV series praising the Huns and smearing the Han and national heroes. Isn't this sick? ?”
Zhang Jizhong said disdainfully: "Historical dramas don't have to follow historical facts. The film "Chuang Ming" you filmed was not based on historical facts, but there are no mistakes in the general direction and values, and the superiors will not care. "Pocahontas" is different. , in the TV series they filmed, Huo Qubing and the Han Dynasty are the evil parties. The Huns in the TV series all pursue freedom and peace. And it is not Huo Qubing’s wish to fight. He is just a pawn of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Wei Qing, and he was completely forced by them. In the end, for love , Huo Qubing decisively abandoned the country and faked his death to escape from the world. If it were filmed like this, would you let this TV series pass the review? "
"That's definitely not possible." Yue Guan replied without hesitation: "I only filmed like this because I was sick."
The Zhu Di he filmed is not the historical Zhu Di. Historically, Zhu Di and Empress Xu had a close relationship. In "Chuang Ming", Zhu Di fell in love with Zhang Chuchu. This kind of plot also tampered with history, but this kind of change is acceptable to the audience. Also acceptable.
But if he shoots Zhu Di as the executioner who persecutes the Mongols, the Mongolians on the grassland love peace, but Zhu Di kills innocent Mongolians for his own ambitions, falls in love with a Mongolian woman, and is even willing to betray the Ming Dynasty for a Mongolian woman... This kind of After the plot was filmed, it was not unjust for him to be banned.
"Pocahontas" is this model.
"If I were above, everyone from the investors to the director and actors of this show would be blacklisted. These people either have brain problems or buttocks problems." Zhang Jizhong sneered: "But I'm not above, the above still gave them a chance to make changes. , but it can’t be without any cost. It happened that our crew had approved the project, so I applied for more support, and Liu Shishi came.”
"No wonder." Yue Caring said it was not unfair.
When filming this kind of movie, do you think the actor has a big responsibility? To be honest, he may have the least responsibility among the relevant responsible persons.
But do you think the actor should take the blame? Absolutely.
No matter how uneducated a celebrity is, he cannot have any historical literacy at all. Can he film this kind of drama casually
Yue Guan has a good impression of Liu Shishi and Brother Hu, but if he takes on a role like this, he deserves whatever consequences he may have.
Having said that, after being filled with righteous indignation, Yue Guan quickly thought of one thing: "It would be great if Brother Hu was also brought in to play Zhen Zhibing or Zhao Zhijing."
"Don't think about it. I've tried it, but it doesn't work. Liu Shishi is Tang Ren's limit." Zhang Jizhong also felt a little regretful: "Tang Ren won't make unlimited concessions, and our crew can't give them orders directly. Fortunately, Being able to send Liu Shishi is already a lottery win for our crew."
"And the winner is a million-level grand prize." Yue Guandu was in a daze: "Liu Yifei, Tang Yan, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, Zhao Liying... Director Zhang, if this drama can still hit the street in terms of ratings, I will The name is written backwards.”
He would never dare to have a lineup like YY.
There is no need to consider plot and acting issues.
When these names appear in a TV series, it means two words - a hit.
"I feel like there might be hope of impacting the ratings of "Chuang Ming"."
Zhang Jizhong shook his head: "There is not much hope. It is possible that the number of online broadcasts will surpass it. TV ratings are too difficult. Nowadays, the number of viewers willing to stay in front of the TV is getting smaller and smaller year by year."
Even so, with the lineup of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", it is basically possible to book an annual championship.
This is no longer an ordinary flying dragon riding face game.
This is a king bomb.
