Let’s talk about “Big Fish and Begonia” first…

Chen Mengxi disliked the original story very much: the general content is the heroine Chun. In order to repay the second male Kun for saving her life, she would rather let the people from a village take the blame for her than give up saving Kun. Finally, Chun left the village and lived happily with the second male Kun.

It is said that this story is about learning Miyazaki's "Princess Ghost" - Tsubasaki is essentially just a deformed product after a clumsy imitation of the heroine of Miyazaki. The original intention is to create a kind, brave and pure heroine, and the feeling that it gives the audience is a woman with low IQ.

selfishness!

There is actually nothing wrong with the kernel: the girl Chun repays the young Kun for saving his life.

However, the form of expression is really unacceptable: when one person has to sacrifice the life of the entire race in order to fulfill his gratitude, the legitimacy of repaying gratitude no longer exists.

The fact that a story can be accepted by the audience is largely in the construction of the "core dilemma and breakthrough methods of the protagonist".

Do you want to repay the favor, but the price is borne by others?

Chen Mengxi gave two suggestions: Since he played the emotional card with "Xiaoyaoyou", he should shoot some free and generous and generous Zhuangzi's "It is better to forget each other than to support each other."

By the way, I invited professional screenwriters for them - after all, the original screenwriter was too bad!

The screenwriter of "Big Fish and Begonia" obviously does not have the ability to write a screenwriter - there is no narration or abrupt old lady's interlude, the screenwriter has no way to tell stories at all, and cannot express his characters with events. It is too simple to use narration to tell things, and it is too LOW. A qualified screenwriter will try his best to avoid doing this!

This is also the reason why "Big Fish and Begonia" has bearish reputation after its release...

Since I knew it in advance, Chen Mengxi certainly needs to interfere...

The director was named Liang Xuan. At first, he was confused by several questions, and then agreed to join the professional screenwriter!

As for "In the Name of People"...

It was Chen Mengxi who took the initiative to find the Supreme People's Procuratorate and proposed to make several anti-corruption dramas and several dramas involving gangsters...

And it will be broadcast on Potato Video.

After all, if this type of drama is supported by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, it will be easier to pass the trial!

The Supreme People's Procuratorate was very supportive, so Chen Mengxi established the project "Black Gold Empire" and "National Action", both adapted from real events...

The first one is the Zhang Xinming case, and the second one is the richest man in Sichuan Liu Han...

"National Action" is okay, because the truth has been revealed;

"The Black Golden Empire" cannot be filmed for the time being because it involves too many people - after Zhang Xinming was taken away, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection announced that Shanxi was a systematic and collapsed method!

Li Xuezheng looked for Chen Mengxi because of "In the Name of People"...

To put it in, "In the Name of People" was not found by Chen Mengxi. Chen Mengxi usually only cares about TV series projects. Even if he asks about it, he organizes projects himself. The company's seven screenwriter teams and Tang Ren also has eight production teams, and there is no shortage of projects.

It was Jindun Film and Television who took the initiative to find him...

The reason is simple - no one invests!

...

There are two types of investments in China's film and television industry: project investment and company investment.

Investors generally have their own "routines" when choosing investment targets for film and television projects. For example, the popular topics in recent years mainly include time travel, young actors + Qidian and other popular novel IPs on websites.

Previous routines include: mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, urban reality, spy war dramas, anti-Japanese war dramas, palace fighting dramas, and popular routines for each period of time.

Of course, when everyone knows this routine, the routine gradually becomes invalid because there is too much competition, and it is not a routine.

Back to the topic, when it comes to the drama "In the Name of People", anti-corruption is a very sensitive topic in our country, especially in mass media!

Don't say that there is support from the Supreme People's Procuratorate...

Useless!

Although this drama is led by the Supreme Procuratorate and supported by the Jindun Film and Television Culture Center directly under the Ministry of Public Security, it is still unknown whether this thing can be passed on in the radio and television industry!

Not to mention anything else, the producer of "I am a Hero" written by Zhou Meisen, also produced by Jiangsu Radio and Television!

Has it been broadcast?

People in the system can’t handle it, so how dare market-oriented investment institutions enter?

In addition, this drama is actually a main theme drama. There are very few successful film and television works in China from the perspective of financial investment.

In the eyes of outside investors, the risk is too great.

For such projects, there may be 1 out of 10, and not many people are interested in gambling this probability.

Except for Shen Mengxi!

"Okay, how much is the gap? I've invested in it. Also, don't change the script, follow the script to shoot!"

Li Xuezheng was a little worried...

He was also worried that he would not pass the trial!

"It's okay. If you don't buy it on the TV station, then just put it on Potato Play. The video website requires that it is sophisticated and cannot be filled with water!"

"Inject water?"

"It's just that I can finish 40 episodes, so I have to add some messy scenes and force the plot to 80 episodes!"

"There is still a situation?"

“Too many!”

Li Xuejing really doesn’t understand film and television dramas very well. He used to be the head of Jindun Publishing House...

In 2012, the People's Liberation Army founded the "Golden Shield Film and Television Center", and Li Xuezheng was officially appointed as director.

Last year, he debuted as an actor - starring in the drama movie "Shock 48"...

Shen Mengxi briefly introduced: "The formation logic of water-injected dramas is related to the overly traditional sales model of Chinese film and television dramas. Most dramas are simply priced by episode count. Whether it is for the purpose of covering costs or maximizing benefits, production companies tend to stretch the dramas..."

"Don't they worry about the quality of filling too much water?"

"They have already sold it..."

Who cares about this?

Just like Youku, the level of the drama doesn’t matter, just sell it for money, and then the person in charge goes in...

Anyway, Shen Mengxi has two requirements for self-produced dramas. First, except for super dramas, general works cannot exceed 24 episodes; second, the purchasing method of general dramas has changed from 20% profit to attracting new ones...

The more new new recruits, the more new VIPs added, the higher the proportion of producers' sharing!

...

First handle "In the Name of People", then read "Big Fish and Begonia"...

Still a little unsatisfied, not that shocking feeling...

But it's not abrupt at least!

There is no stupid remark like "As long as your heart is kind, right and wrong are someone else's business" - Thanos still thinks he is very kind! Teacher Ma also feels that his horse is already convinced...

"Okay, you guys watch the publicity..."

"Boss, can this movie have a box office of one billion?"

Shen Mengxi: "One billion? If there are five hundred million, we should laugh!"

"Not so!"

"…It's too literary and not direct enough... Of course, people who like it should like it very much..."

After all, the picture is here!

Chen Mengxi chatted with a few people from the distribution department while walking...

"Don't make it into 3D!"

“…But many theaters want us to convert them into 3D…”

"Don't worry about them..."

Chen Mengxi was talking when his cell phone rang. He opened it and looked at it. It was a message from Zhao Liying and a photo: "I will take Xihe to the amusement park!"
