Chapter 63 The complicated heroine
Because Qingdao is currently very popular on the Internet, in order to get the popularity of the Red Light Media, in order to gain the greatest publicity effect of Qingdao adapted TV series by spending the least amount of money.
After signing a formal authorization contract with Liu Zhengang, he couldn't wait to officially announce that they had officially spent 4 million to obtain the copyright of Qingdao's film and television adaptation, and will officially start the project in the near future.
In addition to the serious announcement of the news, they also released many similar news, such as a big-name director may direct the drama, a top male star will star in the drama, and a big-name veteran actor will appear in the drama, and a second said that the project team is contacting Yang Zixin, the most popular traffic actress, to play the heroine, and a second said that the agent of the top actress Li Leer went to Red Lantern Media, which is suspected of discussing the role of the heroine of Qingdao...
Red Lane Media is worthy of being the first-tier large media company in China, with extremely rich promotion methods and resources.
In just two or three days, a discussion of TV series adapted from Qingdao was launched on the Internet.
It attracted a lot of people to discuss who should play the heroine and three supporting actors.
With so much discussion, Red Light Media has just established a project team, and the adaptation of the script has just been put on the agenda, and directors, actors and so on are even less popular.
You should know that this project is also a big production for Honglan Media. They spent 4 million to purchase copyrights alone, and the budget of the entire project is based on 100 million yuan.
Even if they will take other companies to invest and share risks, even if they deduct this part, they will probably have to spend tens of millions.
Such a large investment cannot be finalized in just two or three days.
They also need to conduct in-depth market research, and then they can carry out the next step based on the market and content, that is, to find many partners, finalize directors, main actors, etc.
From its birth to its appearance in front of the audience, a large-scale film and television drama requires the hard work of many people and a long time.
Just selecting actors is very troublesome.
Especially the role of the heroine Zhao Yurou, it is very difficult to choose, and ordinary female stars can't stand it at all.
After all, this is adapted from a novel, and the original work has a wide audience, and every reader actually has a different understanding of Zhao Yurou in his mind.
Therefore, it is not easy to choose a heroine that suits most people's minds.
Not to mention, if you want to truly succeed, you cannot just consider the needs of the readers of the original work, but also consider the needs of most viewers. In fact, when this TV series is released in the future, most viewers probably have never read the original work.
It is not easy to take care of the readers of the original work and the audience who have not read the original work.
In addition to these, there is another big trouble: when the writer Zhu Qing described it, he did not have a very clear description of the heroine Zhao Yurou, but he always reminded readers through third-party descriptions that this is a super beauty, and it is a very complex mixed personality. Sometimes she said she is as pure as ice jade, sometimes she said she is as brilliant as summer flowers, sometimes she said she is as passionate as fire...
After reading the complete book, it is actually impossible for you to know what Zhao Yurou looks like. You only remember that she is very beautiful, but how is she beautiful?
There are various descriptions of her by other supporting roles: pure, delicate, passionate, gentle...
If all these adjectives are used on the same person, then this person must be a mentally ill person with multiple personalities...
This also creates a very complicated problem. You cannot be sure what kind of person Zhao Yurou is. The only thing you can know is: a woman with a gender, who is sixteen years old, has long hair, and is very beautiful.
Then……
No, I haven't even said about height, fatness, let alone some appearance characteristics...
Everyone who has read this book has different opinions on what Zhao Yurou looks like and personality.
This is actually one of the main factors that the novel Qingdao has become popular, and many female readers empathize with Zhao Yurou and have a strong sense of substitution.
The writer didn't tell you what Zhao Yurou looks like, and the many characteristics of her writing were different or even contradictory, but this could also allow a group of female readers to successfully enter. They could find some of their own shadows in it and then imagine themselves as Zhao Yurou!
The content department of Honglan Media felt a headache because after the initial amazement at the novel, when they were really adapted and wanted to determine the overall image of the heroine, they were unable to do it for a while.
For this reason, Du Jiayou from Honglan Media called Liu Zhen again, trying to get the answer from Liu Zhen, the "original author".
But Liu Zhen only answered him: I don’t know either!
At the beginning, Liu Zhen repeatedly studied every word here during the process of revising Qingdao, but in the end, he actually didn't know what the heroine looked like.
The original writer Zhu Qing has never written it. The third-party descriptions are multifaceted and contradictory. Who knows what kind of woman Zhao Yurou should be?
The only thing Liu Zhen can be sure of is: this is definitely a master of dog walking!
But, this is just the view of men, but the view of women is completely different. Most female readers think that Zhao Yurou is a combination of all beautiful words such as gentleness, courage, enthusiasm, purity, romance, and strength.
After Liu Zhen learned about the troubles of the screenwriters of Red Lantern Media, he finally gave Du Jiayou a solution: You can't just follow the plot and shoot it, so there is no need to arrange any personality...
After all, the description of the heroine is very complicated, and the only thing that can be confirmed is beauty.
As for personality, if you want a bad personality, just follow the plot in the book, you can't finish it. Sometimes it's pure, sometimes it's passionate, sometimes it's romantic, sometimes it's strong. It's so easy to take it.
Then Du Jiayou called again: My editorial team said that if so many characteristics are combined together, it is easy to become a psychopath...
Liu Zhen chuckled: "Is your editorial team all male screenwriters?"
After hearing this, Du Jiayou subconsciously replied: "It's a man, but it has nothing to do with men and women. They are all professional screenwriters, and..."
Before he finished speaking, Du Jiayou paused. After pondering for a few seconds, Du Jiayou said: I'll try it out for a few female screenwriters..."
