"You can take pictures if you want. Why are you hesitating?"
Qin Lan felt that Yue Guan really deserved a beating.
For most actors in the entertainment industry, filming is good.
Yue Guan never lacks for filming, but he still picks and chooses.
Yue Guan smiled helplessly: "The script is a good script and the play is also good, but it is a bit tasteless to me, so I have been thinking about it."
"Why tasteless?"
"Because of the subject matter, the ratings will definitely not be too high. I can definitely shoot a drama with higher ratings, so I have been thinking about whether to shoot this."
Another reason is that the new script is not an imperial drama.
Yue Guan is not very obsessed with emperor drama.
However, you can only gain the aura of an emperor by filming an emperor drama, so the emperor drama must be given priority.
But the script he has now is a period drama, which can barely be considered a workplace drama.
It’s not a big problem to shoot it and win a lot of applause.
But the ratings are like "The Long Night", which has inherent limitations and is difficult to explode.
This kind of drama is already a good resource for 99% of the stars in the entertainment industry, but for Yue Guan, who has no shortage of dramas to shoot, it is a bit difficult to choose.
It is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.
After hearing what Yue Guan said, Mo Xiangwan thought about the drama Yue Guan was struggling with.
"Yue Guan, are you talking about the script called "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" that our company received two days ago?"
Yue Guan glanced at Mo Xiangwan in surprise: "Sister Xiangwan, do you even know this?"
"I didn't know at first, but it was said that you were very happy after receiving the script, so I paid attention to it. Is the script well written?"
"Very good." Yue Guan nodded: "A period drama, starting from the poorest era in our country. It uses the relationship and entrepreneurial story of the male protagonist Chen Jianghe and his wife Luo Yuzhu as clues to tell the story of Yiwu's reform and development. I particularly like the tortuous and glorious journey of more than 30 years."
"Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" is a good drama that has been buried.
But this drama is not popular, and Yue Guan can understand it.
Because this drama is not a fun drama in the traditional sense, there is too much foreshadowing. After the male protagonist starts to counterattack, the heroine gets married to other men and has children.
Although the heroine's ex-husband later died in a plot killing and the male and female protagonists reunited, this kind of plot is the same as the Dragon Knight plot, and the audience will definitely be unhappy.
When Yue Guan watched it, if it weren't for Zhang Yi and Yin Tao's acting skills, he might not have been able to survive this episode.
But after this period, the male and female protagonists reunited, started a business together, and then fought back all the way. The filming was really beautiful.
Moreover, the description and portrayal of that era are also very vivid. The entrepreneurial changes under the history of reform and opening up, and the special lives and stories of that era are very attractive to the audience.
When it comes to this world, there are some adjustments to the background, but the big framework remains unchanged.
The Dragon Kingdom also experienced many difficulties after the end of World War II. It was easy to regain its homeland, but it was difficult to govern it.
There were many internal conflicts, and then there were major changes unseen in a century, and the political system also began to change.
In the decades after World War II, the Dragon Kingdom actually did not go smoothly.
Each generation has its own hardships.
Therefore, "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" still has a general background that fits the plot framework in this world, and it only needs to be slightly adapted.
Yue Guan can be sure that if "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" is filmed, the reputation will still explode like in the previous life.
The previous life "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" was Zhang Yi and Yin Tao's masterpiece in the TV industry. Both of them contributed textbook-level acting skills, especially the scene where they looked at each other across the train at the station, which was shocking and demonstrated their acting skills. incisively and vividly.
With this drama, they basically swept the TV industry's awards.
If Yue Guan takes on this drama, he is sure to win the Feitian Award and the Magnolia Award again.
However, even if he deletes the 20 water-filled plots at the end of "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" and deletes some of the previous plots in which the heroine gets married and has children with others, the ratings of this drama will still be difficult to expand.
There is a high probability that it will be as popular as "The Long Night" but not as a box office hit.
It can't even achieve the same level of acclaim as "The Long Night".
So Yue Guan really hasn't made up his mind whether to film this movie or not.
Emotionally Yue Guan likes her very much, but intellectually Yue Guan knows that this is not his best choice.
When Mo Xiangwan heard that it was a period drama, he also understood Yue Guan's dilemma.
"The audience's interest in period dramas is indeed not great. Even if you film them, it will be difficult for them to become popular."
Yue Guan nodded: "That's true, even if everyone who has seen it agrees."
"Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" was basically a drama that everyone who watched it praised in my previous life.
But no matter how good the reputation is, viewers who are not interested in this subject still have no idea of watching it.
Moreover, the title of the TV series "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" is also a bit discouraging.
However, the title of the play is not a problem for Yue Guan, as long as the title is changed.
What made Yue Guan hesitate was the restriction of subject matter.
Mo Xiangwan thought for a while, but did not make up his mind for Yue Guan. Instead, he suggested: "Let it go for now. If there is a better option, choose the better one first. If there is no better option, shoot this one."
"There must be better ones, and even if I wanted to film this, the script would have to be changed significantly. Fortunately, the screenwriter agreed to delete it."
With Yue Guan's current status in the screenwriting circle, few screenwriters can refuse Yue Guan's request.
Moreover, the original screenwriter also knew that there were problems with the plot of "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky", especially in the later stages, when it was obvious that it was in trouble.
Thirty episodes of this drama are enough. The children's affairs in the next twenty episodes are completely unnecessary and will hinder the entire drama.
It's just that the more episodes you have, the more money you make, so twenty more episodes were added later.
Now that the script is in Yue Guan's hands, there is no need to consider this.
Delete it directly.
The previous plot where the heroine and the hero left for a foreign country due to a misunderstanding also needs to be revised. The move can be saved, but it is really unnecessary for the heroine to marry another man and have children...
Literary youth for the sake of literary youth.
There are many ways to show the steadfastness of the relationship between the hero and heroine, but this method of feeding shit to the audience proves to be the worst.
The subject matter is already niche enough, so why bother with this kind of plot
When Yue Guan and Mo Xiangwan were chatting, Qin Lan yawned.
She looked at the time, then interrupted the chat between the two: "It's already past 12 o'clock, go to bed."
"So fast?" Mo Xiangwan was a little surprised.
Yue Guan followed the good advice: "Sleep, sleep, and listen to Sister Lan."
Qin Lan: "I mean sleeping, where do you put your hands?"
"I'm just sleeping, there's nothing wrong with me."
"Are you human? Why are you here again?"
Yue Guan showed with his actual actions that he was no ordinary person.
