Yue Guan didn't have much time to write the entire script of "The Gatekeeper of the World" by himself.
Because as Mo Xiangwan said, he still has a lot of work to do, and it is impossible to write scripts in isolation.
Fortunately, Miracle now has a writing staff.
Mo Xiangwan directly handed over the task, and everyone just worked together to improve the script.
In addition, Yue Guan also has a lot of screenwriting resources that can be mobilized.
Although it costs a little money.
The annual screenwriting awards are about to begin again.
This award must be personally investigated by Yueguan. Since you have to do this, you must persevere.
And through this award, we can indeed discover many good screenwriters.
And good screenwriters often represent good stories, and good stories are valuable at all times.
Miracle Company.
Yue Guan and Mo Xiangwan were discussing the ownership of this year's screenwriting award.
"Now the entire screenwriting circle is staring at you, Yue Guan. Your award has almost become the Nobel Prize in the screenwriting circle. It is more valuable than the Golden Dragon Award for Best Screenplay." Mo Xiangwan said with a smile.
Li Ruotong nodded: "The Golden Dragon Award for Best Screenplay is an honor, but to win Yue Guan's award is 10 million. If you ask me to choose, I will choose Yue Guan. Yue Guan, you have chosen this year. ?"
"That's almost it. I've been paying attention to this matter for the past two days."
Yue Guan is a person who has a beginning and an end.
Since he wants to do it seriously, he will do it well, and it won't take a year or two.
"Sister Xiang Wan, please help me contact everyone on the list."
Mo Xiangwan took the list handed over by Yue Guan.
Li Ruotong leaned over.
I saw "Dear" first.
Li Ruotong was very surprised: "Hey, Yue Guan, don't you like watching love movies?"
"When did I say that I don't like watching romantic movies? I like to watch any good movie. Besides, "Dear" is not a romantic movie. This movie is also called "Dear Child"."
Li Ruotong looked confused.
She hasn't seen the movie.
But Mo Xiangwan has seen it: "It must be Chen Kexin's "Dear". This is a movie about anti-trafficking. It was shot very restrained, but it was also very touching. I even cried once while watching it."
"Yes, that's the one. The film was quite good. Among the great directors who went north to Xiangcheng, Chen Kexin is still a great director who has maintained his own standards, which is rare. Of course, this award is not for Chen Kexin, but for "Dear" "The screenwriter Zhang Ji's."
"Dear" is a drama that uses small things to create big things. With the performances of Huang Bo, Zhang Yi, Zhao Zhetian, Hao Lei and other talented actors, it has contributed an amazing story.
Although Yue Guan rarely watches such movies and doesn't like Zhao Zhetian very much, Yue Guan's stance in selecting movies is still very objective.
Good is good. Even if he doesn't like it, it doesn't affect whether a movie is a good movie. It can only be said that it doesn't suit his taste.
The earth does not revolve around Yue Guan. He does not have the idea that I am the center of the world. In many cases, only by seeking common ground while reserving differences can we improve our own situation.
Mo Xiangwan also thought it was normal for Yue Guan to give a quota to "Dear". "Dear" was originally one of the most popular movies this year. It may have less influence, but this is because of the subject matter.
Audiences all know that kidnappers are hateful, but they are actually unwilling to watch a movie like this because it is too tragic.
Understandable.
However, this kind of movie has its own meaning and must be encouraged. You can dislike some movies, but they actually need support.
So Yue Guan offered his support.
"The second spot was given to the screenwriter of "The Master of Hypnosis"? Yue Guan, it seems that this movie didn't have particularly good reviews and box office, right?"
Mo Xiangwan was not surprised that "Dear" was shortlisted, but she was a little surprised when "The Master of Hypnosis" was shortlisted.
Yue Guan nodded: "The reputation of "The Master of Hypnosis" is indeed worse than that of "Dear", and the plot is also somewhat flawed. However, among movies of the same type, this year's "The Master of Hypnosis" is the best."
"The Master of Hypnosis" is a suspense-thriller drama, which is completely plot-based. If the plot is good, the audience will support it. If the plot is not good, the movie will fail.
In Yue Guan's opinion, the plot of "The Master of Hypnosis" received excellent marks.
"There is no other better suspense thriller movie in China this year. "The Master of Hypnotism" ranks first in this genre both in terms of reputation and box office. If not, who else can give it to it?"
"I didn't feel that "The Master of Hypnosis" was particularly good." Li Ruotong said doubtfully: "I have seen this movie. Xu Zheng is no longer funny. He plays a hypnotist who used to be very heavy. I still like to see him funny."
Mo Xiangwan understood: "Since Ruotong said so, then "The Master of Hypnosis" is indeed worthy of a spot."
Li Ruotong: "..."
Yue Guan smiled and touched Li Ruotong's head, and then said with emotion: "After comedians become famous for their comedies, they don't seem to like to continue to be funny. It seems that being funny is really not an easy task."
"That seems to be the case. Zhou Xingchi didn't want to make comedies anymore." Mo Xiangwan nodded.
It’s not just Zhou Xingchi.
Shen Teng can be regarded as a very pure comedian. Audiences like him when he performs comedy. He is known as a man who has a good sense of humor.
But in Wang Jing's words, if you watch his performance in "Flying Life", he doesn't want to act in a comedy anymore, he wants to die.
And the audience really doesn't want to see him die.
It's just awkward.
No wonder they say comedians are two people on and off the stage, and the core of comedy is tragedy.
"Anyway, Xu Zheng's performance in "The Hypnotist" is also excellent. Besides, we are giving out screenwriting awards. The plot of "The Hypnotist" can win the award, so there is no need to think so much."
"You have the final say on your money."
Mo Xiangwan smiled and then saw the next winning screenwriter.
Seeing this candidate for the award, Mo Xiangwan felt that it was normal.
"Chen Shu, Lu Yang, the screenwriter of "Xiuchundao". As a generation of martial arts masters, it is indeed your duty to support martial arts-themed movies."
"If it's not good, I won't support it. "Xiu Chun Dao" is still quite good, although it is a bit niche."
Although Yue Guan is a bit biased, he will definitely not choose a really bad movie.
"Xiu Chun Knife" is definitely not a bad movie.
But it's really not particularly good.
Mo Xiangwan glanced at Yue Guan with a subtle expression: "If Liu Shishi was not invited to be the heroine of "Xiu Chun Dao", maybe the box office and reputation would be better."
Yue Guan shrugged: "Sister Xiang Wan, aren't you still worried about Liu Shishi not signing with our company? That's not our loss."
"I'm not so petty. I'm telling the truth. The heroine is the one who gets the most criticism in "Xiu Chun Dao". Liu Shishi is a bit like Liu Yifei a few years ago. She has acted in too many bad movies, and her acting skills have always been poor. There is no progress, and many viewers subconsciously think that the movie she plays is bad when they see her, so many viewers who were originally interested in "Xiu Chun Knife" did not go to the cinema to watch it."
Yue Guan did not refute Mo Xiangwan's words.
Because what he said is indeed the truth.
Liu Shishi's acting skills, especially in "Xiu Chun Knife"... really can't refute this prejudice.
It's really average.
However, considering the popularity of the creative team of "Xiu Chun Dao" before, it was quite good to invite Liu Shishi, and there was no need to complain.
After all, Liu Shishi was invited to take pictures because of her fame and fans, and it could not be to improve the quality of the movie.
Therefore, there is nothing to say about benevolence and benevolence.
The creative team knows this very well.
Otherwise, the second part of "Xiu Chun Knife" would not continue to have Damimi as the heroine.
Obviously, the director thought it was right to hire a popular actress as the heroine.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with it.
At least "Xiuchundao" didn't lose money.
Compared with reputation and profitability, the latter is obviously more important.
"We only look at the plot, not the actors. How Liu Shishi performs has nothing to do with me." Yue Guandao.
"It's a pity. If she was willing to sign with our company back then, you would definitely be able to feed her." Mo Xiangwan made a pun.
Yue Guan: "..."
"From a market perspective, Liu Shishi's current price/performance ratio is actually very suitable for cooperation. Yue Guan, if our company has a suitable drama, we can look for her. She won't charge a high price now." Mo Xiangwan said.
"Sister Xiang Wan, just take care of it. You don't need to ask me for such trivial matters. I'm usually only responsible for selecting actors for my own plays."
"You can also look for her in your drama. Although Liu Shishi can't work in the film industry, she is still very popular in the TV industry."
Mo Xiangwan's suggestion made sense, but Yue Guan just wrote it down and didn't take it to heart.
"The script hasn't been released yet, so don't think so far ahead and get the screenwriting award first."
"Yue Guan, didn't you avoid yourself in awards? Why did you award your own play this time?" Li Ruotong was very surprised when he saw the list of the fourth winning screenwriter.
So did Mo Xiangwan.
"All the screenwriters of "Feng Shen"? Yue Guan, you didn't let "Feng Shen" avoid it?"
"No, there are many people in the screenwriting team of "Feng Shen", and it would be too unfair to remove them. And from my personal preference, if "Feng Shen" was not made by me, "Feng Shen" would definitely have this award. It deserves a place. In terms of contribution to domestic films, the previous three films combined are not as good as "Feng Shen". It is a matter of course to give some bonuses to the screenwriter team. Anyone who has any opinions, let them get 10 million for themselves Just make it up to the people who weren’t chosen.”
Yue Guan picked it out. He would definitely not take the 10 million.
Divided equally among the rest of the writing team of "Fengshen".
The overall framework of "Fengshen" was determined by him. If you break it down further, the overall framework of the strategy was determined by Liu Heping.
Then the specific details were added by the writers of the Miracle Company writing team.
They actually have more work than Yue Guan.
Therefore, Yue Guan has no reason to harm his own interests just to avoid suspicion.
Again, he paid for the money himself, and he is free to give it to anyone.
Mo Xiangwan's eyes lit up at Yue Guan's domineering attitude: "It should have been like this a long time ago. Last year I felt that Yue Guan you shouldn't avoid your own drama."
"Last year, there were only two screenwriters on "Game of Thrones": me and Mr. Liu Heping. I can compensate Mr. Liu Heping in other ways. This year is different. There are too many people on the screenwriting team of "Feng Shen"."
So they should take a spot.
"Who is Xiao Ji Xiangtian?" Li Ruotong saw the last award-winning screenwriter, but she searched her memory and couldn't figure out who this person was.
Mo Xiangwan did know: "The screenwriter of "Soul Ferry", Ruotong, you have seen it."
""Soul Ferry"? Yue Guan, do you also think this drama is very interesting?" Li Ruotong's eyes lit up.
She really likes this show.
Yue Guan nodded: "The plot is still very good and eye-catching. Among the five-star video online dramas this year, "Soul Ferry" is the most outstanding one besides our company's dramas."
"Actually, the reputation and influence of "Soul Ferry" are not as good as "Things in the Entertainment Industry" produced by our company." Mo Xiangwan said one thing.
Yue Guan waved his hand: "The success of "Those Things in the Entertainment Industry" has little to do with the screenwriter. It is due to the scale and other reasons. The plot is just like that. The success of "Soul Ferry" is almost entirely due to the plot and the special effects of the actors. Dao and other things are basically a hindrance. In comparison, the screenwriting skills are still very different. I am not deliberately flattering others and exploiting my own people, I am telling the truth."
What Yue Guan wants to judge is the screenwriting award, not the drama award.
It can actually be seen how much credit the screenwriter takes for the success of a play.
It just depends on whether the drama wins based on its plot.
Yue Guan said this, and Mo Xiangwan couldn't refute it.
Miracle Company has also released many professional dramas this year, but most of them are based on reality. Several dramas directly use the scripts written by Yue Guan.
Although the reputation and popularity are higher than that of "Soul Ferry", Mo Xiangwan knows that Yue Guan himself will definitely not participate in the election.
So it’s not surprising that this year’s only TV drama screenwriting award was given to “Soul Ferry”.
Mo Xiangwan thought of something: "Yue Guan, do you want Xiao Ji Xiangtian to join the screenwriting team of "The Gatekeepers of the World"?"
Yue Guan chuckled: "Sister Xiang Wan really understands me. Being able to write a play like "Soul Ferry" shouldn't be a big problem for "The Gatekeeper of the World". Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't join the screenwriting team. Let's communicate and collide. There is always something to be gained, which is why I want to bring the winners together for a dinner each year.”
In the process of communicating with others, you can inspire your own inspiration at any time.
This is a collective effort.
As long as the general direction does not deviate, it will be fine.
As Yue Guan disclosed the five award-winning screenwriting teams this year on Weibo, there was naturally another heated discussion on the Internet.
But as Yue Guan said, Yue Guan paid for it himself, so Yue Guan has the right to choose the screenwriter he likes.
This has nothing to do with fairness or unfairness, because this award itself is not an official award, and discussing whether it is fair or not will only cause ridicule from others.
So everyone is full of envy for the five award-winning screenwriting teams.
Ten million.
Especially when I saw Xiao Ji Xiangtian, the screenwriter of "Soul Ferry", monopolizing 10 million yuan and turning from a little-known screenwriter into a multi-millionaire, it inspired many colleagues.
"A drama like "Soul Ferry" with such poor service skills can be selected by Yue Guan. It seems that Yue Guan's award evaluation does not value the quality of a drama, but only the plot."
"Xiao Ji Xiangtian can do it, and I can do it too. Next year I will definitely write a web drama that will blow the world."
Three major misconceptions in life: I can do whatever I want.
Yue Guan doesn't know if they can do it.
Yue Guan is now chatting with Xiao Ji Xiangtian.
To be precise, I talked with all the award-winning screenwriters.
"I recently want to create a TV series about Eastern superheroes. If you teachers are interested, you can chat together. We will discuss with each other. If there are any suggestions that can be used in the end, I will be very grateful."
Uncle Li said that the most important thing in the 21st century is talent.
And this group of screenwriters are the talents in the screenwriting industry.
With this kind of talent resource in hand, if he doesn't make good use of it, Yue Guan will be sorry for himself.
