CCTV was pressing hard, so Zhang Jizhong was very nervous while filming "The Story of Heaven and the Dragon Sword".
Yue Guan originally wanted to treat Zhang Jizhong to a meal, but Zhang Jizhong had no time at all.
So Yue Guan kidnapped the hero and the two heroines.
Needless to say, Gao Yuanyuan, since the leader has decided to film "The Wind Rises in the Forest", it is of course no problem to have a meal together.
There is also a heroine named Jia Jingwen, who plays Zhao Min.
Because of the parallel time and space, Alyssa Chia and Gao Yuanyuan are both relatively young and their looks are still at their peak, so there is no pressure at all to play Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo.
Yue Guan did not interfere in the selection of Zhao Min. His relationship with Zhang Min was not that good before, so he did not recommend her to play the drama version of Zhao Min. Later, it was confirmed that Zhang Min would play the film version of Zhao Min, and she would not be allowed to play the drama version.
Otherwise, the two heroines of "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Leader" were not on the set, and the filming would have been a mess.
As for why Jia Jingwen was able to break out from so many female stars, Yue Guan didn't know.
Anyway, when deciding on the final candidate, Zhang Jizhong specifically asked Yue Guan if Jia Jingwen could play Zhao Min. Yue Guan had no objection, and Jia Jingwen made the official announcement the next day.
Today Yue Guan came to visit the crew and invited Gao Yuanyuan and Huang Xiaoming to dinner. Jia Jingwen happened to be passing by, so Gao Yuanyuan pulled Jia Jingwen along.
The two of them seem to have a good relationship, and I don't know if they knew each other before or after joining the crew.
Compared with Gao Yuanyuan and Huang Xiaoming, Jia Jingwen is more awkward. She and Yue Guan are really not familiar with each other.
After sitting down, Jia Jingwen took the initiative to propose a glass of red wine: "Thank you Mr. Yue for giving me this opportunity."
"Sister Jingwen, you don't need to be so polite. You are Sister Yuanyuan's best friend, just call me by my name." Yue Guan clinked glasses with Jia Jingwen and then said proactively.
Jia Jingwen glanced at Gao Yuanyuan.
Yue Guan was polite to her, but she didn't dare to take it seriously.
However, Gao Yuanyuan nodded to her and said naturally: "Yue Guan is very easy to get along with. Don't raise him as a gift, otherwise you will both feel uncomfortable. As far as our relationship is concerned, you can call him brother."
Jia Jingwen relaxed and chuckled: "I would like to have a younger brother like this, but unfortunately I don't have this blessing. Yuanyuan, when did you and Yue Guan meet?"
"Very early on, I was a fan of his when he first became famous, and he was a fan of mine."
Yue Guan coughed lightly: "Excuse me, I'm a fan of your face, but I'm really not a fan of your movies."
You didn't even film Zhou Zhiruo at that time, so I didn't even have a choice if I wanted to be your fan.
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at Yue Guan.
"It's different when people are famous. When Yue Guan was hidden in the snow before, she opened her mouth and shut up, Yuanyuan, sister, goddess and so on. Now that she is famous, she speaks so rudely." Gao Yuanyuan said with emotion: "This is so real."
Jia Jingwen and Huang Xiaoming understand why Gao Yuanyuan and Yue Guan have such a good relationship.
Huang Xiaoming took the initiative to clink glasses with Gao Yuanyuan and said with some admiration: "There are very few people in the entertainment industry who can't change their attitude when you are on the decline like Yuanyuan. Yueguan, you are not recognized as a sister in vain."
Yue Guan nodded: "Come on, Sister Yuanyuan, I'll toast you too."
In fact, his popularity is quite good. Even during the three years of dormancy, there are very few people who are arrogant and respectful at the same time. At most, they are very enthusiastic to you at first, but then ignore you. That is normal, and Yue Guan will not be jealous.
But Gao Yuanyuan not only had the same attitude towards him in the past three years, she also took the initiative to care about his situation, and even rushed to pay for going out with him when she didn't know his assets.
This kind of affection must be remembered.
Of course, he returned the favor and urged Gao Yuanyuan to buy a house.
Unfortunately, Gao Yuanyuan just bought one set.
All they drank was red wine. After all, the three of them had to film a movie tomorrow. Yue Guan wasn't here to pick up corpses, so he definitely wouldn't drink wine.
After finishing a bottle of red wine, Yue Guan took the initiative to switch to juice so as not to affect their filming status tomorrow.
After drinking some wine and eating some food, the atmosphere naturally became warm.
Jia Jingwen and Huang Xiaoming also got into the mood. Jia Jingwen took the initiative to ask: "Yue Guan, what is the situation of the movie version of "Eternal Dragon Sword" you are currently working on? Will it conflict with the drama version?"
Actually, it does.
Yue Guan glanced at Huang Xiaoming and thought that the Zhang Wuji he adapted would be in sharp contrast to the Zhang Wuji played by Huang Xiaoming in the original work.
Yue Guan doesn't think that Huang Xiaoming's current reputation and popularity can compare to his own. After the movie version is released, the leader is afraid that he will be compared with Bai Gu Yangguo in his previous life.
But that's all.
If there is really any core conflict, there is definitely none.
"How successful the movie version of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" will be depends on how popular the drama version is. I have made a lot of adaptations for the movie version. If you haven't seen the original work and the drama version, it will be difficult to understand. So Sister Jingwen and Brother Xiao Ming, please work hard, I’m counting on you.”
Of course Huang Xiaoming would not believe such polite words. He also thought about the core of the problem: "There should be changes in the two versions of Zhang Wuji. With your current popularity and reputation, I'm afraid you will be crushed."
“Brother Xiao Ming’s nationality is much higher than mine, so he definitely doesn’t care about this.”
Yue Guan was also embarrassed to deny it.
Because there will definitely be a comparison, denying this is tantamount to insulting Huang Xiaoming's IQ.
And just by comparing them, Yue Guan really couldn't think of the possibility that he would lose.
Fortunately, the leader was very open-minded: "Only when there is discussion will there be attention. I will just try my best to act. I have played Tang Bohu before, so I am used to being scolded."
Yue Guan gave the leader a thumbs up.
When it comes to challenging classics, the leader is really not afraid of being scolded.
Xing Ye has played Tang Bohu, so he will act too.
Bai Gu had played Yang Guo, so he also acted.
Fa Ge has played Xu Wenqiang, and the leader has also appeared.
Yue Guan probably wouldn't even dare to take this kind of role that puts him first.
In this world, although the leader avoided Yang Guo, his character did not change much.
The mentality is really good.
Huang Xiaoming didn't think too much about this issue. He was more interested in the five-star video cake that Yue Guan drew for him.
"Yue Guan, what type of new play are you talking about directed by Kong Shu and Li Qian that was produced by Five Star Video?"
"We have hired directors Kong Shuo and Li Qian. It must be a serious drama, a Machiavellian costume drama, and the tone is desolate and tragic."
Therefore, "The Wind Rises in the Nirvana in Fire" is difficult to break out because the story is very depressing from the beginning and the ending is even more tragic.
What the audience wants to watch is a cool drama like "Nirvana in Fire". It doesn't matter whether it makes sense or not. Just watch the protagonist cheat and that's it. There is no doubt about the quality of "Nirvana in Fire", but if you insist on saying that it is a political and historical drama with an online IQ, then it is really embarrassing.
The protagonist Mei Changsu's forces in "Nirvana in Fire" can kill the emperor at any time from the first episode. The number one master next to the emperor and the commander of the imperial army is Mei Changsu Tie, who wants to kill the emperor in a matter of minutes. The emperor's concubine regarded Mei Changsu as her own son, and it was only a matter of minutes to poison the emperor. In fact, the concubine actually poisoned the emperor later. Yanhou, one of Mei Changsu's allies, appears with his own bomb. If the protagonist hadn't stopped him, he would have killed the emperor long ago. In addition, Mei Changsu's fiancée was the king of Yunnan, whom the emperor relied on, and had hundreds of thousands of troops. He only had eyes for Mei Changsu, and did not take the emperor seriously at all. Mei Changsu's best friend is the prince with the greatest military merit in the imperial court, and he can kill me at any time for Mei Changsu.
This kind of power, coupled with the fact that the protagonist is the wisest man in the world and the leader of the largest gang in the world... there is no need to use so many tricks.
It only takes a matter of minutes for you to ask Li Ruotong to take revenge.
Compared with "Nirvana in Fire", "Wind in the Nirvana in Fire" is much more realistic. Once it is realistic, the fate of such a powerful protagonist will not be good.
You have great achievements and more power than the emperor. How can the emperor trust you
Therefore, "The Wind Rises in the Forest" is very depressing, and this kind of drama has no possibility of becoming a big hit.
But it’s not difficult to make money.
Huang Xiaoming also realized this after listening to Yue Guan explain the basic plot.
He was not disappointed, but just sighed: "Five-star video has to make money by standing up for this kind of serious drama."
"It is a good thing to make money standing up. First of all, establish the quality and let everyone feel that five-star products must be high-quality products. In this way, paying viewers will become more and more willing to spend money. In addition, five-star videos will be launched sooner or later. Compared with making money quickly, Money, in fact, the fluctuation of the stock price also depends on the reputation of the content promoted by Five Star Video. The better the quality of the dramas promoted by Five Star Video, the higher the stock price will be."
"That's true, but the higher the quality of the project, the higher the requirements for actors. Not everyone can act in such a serious drama." Huang Xiaoming was surprised by the high standards of Five Star Video.
Yue Guan smiled: "Actors should have a threshold. In the future, the audience's interest will become more and more scattered. If domestic film and television dramas are filled with inferior stars with no acting skills, many viewers will give up watching domestic film and television dramas. How much money we can make depends on how many audiences support us. Therefore, the works we provide must be worthy of these audiences."
Yue Guan didn't expect that he could convince Huang Xiaoming not to waste money.
He just spoke his mind naturally.
Five Star Video now has the final say. No matter how blue other TV stations and video websites are, at least he will make scenes worthy of the audience.
All efforts will not be in vain. As long as quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, you will definitely reap rich rewards.
The premise is that you have to survive until that time.
…
At night.
The clouds collect and the rain stops.
Gao Yuanyuan hangs the war-free card and no longer provokes Yue Guan.
It’s not that he’s not good at fighting.
It's just that she has to get up early tomorrow to film, so she can't wait too late.
"Don't move your hands, let's chat."
"You talk about yours, and I'll do mine, without delay."
Gao Yuanyuan pinched the soft flesh of Yue Guan's waist with her small hands, and then rotated it 180°.
Yue Guan immediately cried out in pain.
"I was wrong, chat, chat."
"Huh, you're going to take the blame yourself." Gao Yuanyuan was a little proud that she had achieved her goal, but then she took the initiative to ask, "Does Wu Baige's incident have a big impact on you?"
The conflict between Yue Guan and Wu Baige has already spread throughout the industry.
At first, Yue Guan had the absolute upper hand, and it still still has the upper hand now, but with the entry of musicians, more and more people are watching the excitement.
Although Yue Guan is coming fiercely and his background seems to be very profound, Leshi, who is expanding aggressively, cannot be underestimated. This rising upstart is making rapid progress in all the fields it is involved in. With Leshi supporting Wu Baige behind, Yue Guan Guan and Wu Baige are once again evenly matched in the eyes of many people.
So Gao Yuanyuan was a little worried about Yue Guan's situation.
Yue Guan smiled: "He's just a clown. He's vulnerable. Don't take him seriously."
Gao Yuanyuan glanced at Yue Guan suspiciously: "You didn't lie to me?"
"Of course I'm not lying to you. Many of these so-called great directors are paper tigers. Don't take them too seriously. It's not like ten years ago. Their reputations are no longer good."
"It's really loud. Currently, the number one box office movie in Dragon Kingdom is "Let the Bullets Fly" by the great director Jiang Wen, and the second one is "The Earthquake" by the great director Feng Xiaogang. It is too exaggerated to say that the great director is a paper tiger."
"It's no exaggeration at all. Except for Xingye, these so-called great directors will gradually fall from the altar. Xingye can still last for two years. When the audience pays off the movie tickets they owe him, they will follow in their footsteps. The audience The audience is no longer the same as it was a few years ago. They are still the same audience as they were a few years ago. Times have changed." Yue Guan said quietly: "Sister Yuanyuan, when you accept a movie in the future, please call me in advance. , I am better than these big directors."
He is the one who has seen the answers.
In fact, it is not that these great directors cannot adapt to the new era, but the main reason is that they have already become famous and are too lazy to bend down to chase the market and listen to the audience.
There is no need to doubt their talent.
It’s just that he stood too high, far away from the audience. Therefore, the audience also stayed away from them.
Gao Yuanyuan didn't quite agree with Yue Guan's judgment, but she didn't refute it.
Yue Guan’s previous predictions about the industry have proven that he is right every time.
The impressive record made Gao Yuanyuan dare not say that what Yue Guan predicted would not happen even if she disagreed with Yue Guan's views.
"Since you are not worried about Wu Baige, then I won't worry about you either. But why did you ask Huang Xiaoming to film a drama? Can his acting skills hold up?" Gao Yuanyuan expressed doubts: "I feel that his acting skills are about the same as mine. For dramas The requirements for acting skills aren’t so low, right?”
Yue Guan: "...Sister Yuanyuan, for example, on a test paper, you and the leader both got 75 points. You could only get 75 points, but he only got 75 points."
"He can score more points, why only 75 points?"
"Maybe this is the reason why he is so popular. People with good acting skills recognize his acting skills, and people with poor acting skills can also find confidence in him. This is also a skill that ordinary people cannot learn."
Gao Yuanyuan tasted Pinyueguan and felt something was wrong.
"Are you making fun of me?"
"Nonsense, am I that kind of person? Go to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow."
He has to get up early tomorrow too.
The launch ceremony of "The Legend of the Dragon Slayer: The Demon Cult Leader" will be held tomorrow, and of course he will make an appearance.
Fortunately, there was enough time.
Stars in the entertainment industry are basically masters in time management, and the more popular the star, the more so.
There is no way, there are too many things to do, and time must be allocated reasonably.
