In the film and television industry, the script is the cornerstone. Without a good script, even the best production team and talented actors cannot perform at the level they should.
However, screenwriters do not have a high status in this industry chain, and it is normal to be asked to revise the script after the creation is completed. Some big names will bring their own screenwriters to the crew and revise the script while filming. The final film and television product is completely different from the original version of the script... It is even more common to change the script before filming starts. A big name takes on the play and is dissatisfied with his role. In order to satisfy the big name, the script has to be changed.
Modify the character's personality to make it more likable.
Increase the role.
Adjust the character's ranking.
Zhang Guangzhen's script was sent back for revision, which was exactly the situation he encountered.
Yu Tianlin is going to join this drama. With his popularity and fame, he is definitely better than Xu Mei and the coal boss's mistress. Yu Tianlin is willing to participate, which is simply a kindness to help guide newcomers.
Because when Zhang Guangzhen accepted the commission, Cao Shao's request was that he appear to be praising the coal boss's mistress, but in fact he was secretly increasing Xu Mei's role. Other requirements were secondary. Zhang Guangzhen focused his main energy on shaping these two female characters and was careless about the shaping of the male protagonist.
The script was basically finished, but Yu Tianlin suddenly wanted to take part in the performance, but he felt that the male lead didn't have enough roles and his character wasn't good enough.
Cao Shao and the coal boss met and discussed that they could not let go of Yu Tianlin, who was a guarantee of ratings.
"Try your best to meet Yu Tianlin's requirements!"
With just a word from the financial sponsor, Zhang Guangzhen's workload increased dramatically.
Zhang Guangzhen only received half of the 1 million yuan salary, and the remaining half has not been paid yet. When he heard that Yu Tianlin was going to play the male lead, Zhang Guangzhen almost didn't want the remaining half of the salary.
Zhang Guangzhen knew everything about the grudges and hatred between the Miracle Group and Yuan Fenghui!
It was Yuan Fenghui who advised him not to be too concerned about money and not to worry about her.
After all, the coal bosses who are stupid and rich will never get the chance again if they miss this opportunity. Moreover, Zhang Guangzhen is different from Yuan Fenghui. Yuan Fenghui has completely shifted the focus of his work to the mainland and can completely ignore Taiwan, but Zhang Guangzhen is not like that.
If Zhang Guangzhen refuses Yu Tianlin's request, he will not only offend Yu Tianlin. The entertainment industry in Taiwan is so small, and Zhang Guangzhen still needs to make a living in the future!
Yuan Fenghui had no grudges.
But Zhang Guangzhen is not someone who can be bullied. He was paid 1 million to do a job worth 1 million. He even wrote the script but asked me to revise it... and he wanted more money!
Now that Yuan Fenghui explained the matter, even the noisy Wang Shuang had no objection to Zhang Guangzhen.
The person Wang Shuang has a problem with is Yu Tianlin!
Yu Tianlin is coming to the mainland to film a movie. He can't find any script, but he insists on getting together with Cao Shao and his gang. Even Wang Shuang can see what he is planning.
Wang Shuang was both angry and anxious. He looked at Xie Qian and saw that he was fine. Then he looked at Wen Ying and saw that not only was she not angry, she was actually smiling.
"What are you laughing at?"
Yuan Fenghui also laughed.
Wang Shuang has the impatience of a teenager, which is very normal. Young people are passionate and will really worry about Yuan Fenghui. Yuan Fenghui, who has experienced betrayal, knows too well how precious "sincerity" is.
Maybe Wang Shuang, Wen Ying and other young people will become completely different in the future, but at least now, they care about Yuan Fenghui so sincerely.
Yuan Fenghui's heart softened, and she asked Wen Ying to explain to Wang Shuang.
"Wait a moment, the recording is almost finished. I'll go over and keep an eye on it for a while."
Li Mengjiao has already seen the movement here. If Yuan Fenghui doesn't go over, Li Hanhan will definitely be distracted.
Although Zhang Yangning was not as emotional as Wang Shuang, he was still very concerned about this matter. Like Wang Shuang, he pricked up his ears and waited for Wen Ying's explanation.
After Yuan Fenghui left, Wen Ying didn't keep anyone in suspense and patiently explained to Wang Shuang why she was laughing: "I'm happy. If Yu Tianlin had filmed other dramas, it might have posed a threat to Tianjiao's second drama. But he chose the team put together by Cao Shao... This drama has three parties competing, and each has their own ideas. Even if Teacher Zhang Guangzhen really came up with a good script that all three parties were satisfied with, it might not be a good film!"
What are Cao Shao’s expectations for Zhang Guangzhen’s script?
It’s to praise Xu Mei!
Yuan Fenghui said that apart from Cao Shao, the biggest investor was a coal boss, whose goal was to make his mistress famous and to make money from this movie - the coal boss did have a lot of money, but he was not necessarily stupid. He spent tens of millions to make a movie not just to please his lover. If he didn't want to make money, he wouldn't invest in the movie. With tens of millions of dollars, what kind of gifts could he not give? It would be wrong to throw them all into the water without even making a sound!
These are two major demands.
Now there is another Yu Tianlin.
Yu Tianlin was willing to participate probably because he knew that there was a deep conflict between General Guan and Yuan Fenghui. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and Yu Tianlin was gathering forces to oppose Yuan Fenghui.
Moreover, Yu Tianlin is also greedy for the mainland market.
Look at Yun Chen, who starred in his first drama as a newcomer and it became a huge hit in ratings and quickly became famous. How could Yu Tianlin not be moved after seeing this?
Once you're attracted to the role, you'll be hoping to reach a higher level, and you can't help but ask Zhang Guangzhen to give the male lead more and more scenes when writing the script!
"You say, a drama hasn't even started filming yet, but it already carries so many people's different 'expectations'. Do you think it has a higher chance of becoming a hit, or flop?"
What did this play do wrong? It's still a child and can't bear such a heavy burden!
Although Teacher Zhang Guangzhen is not a child, he must have lost a lot of hair facing the requests from three parties to add more scenes.
Wen Ying felt very sympathetic towards Zhang Guangzhen, and Wang Shuang finally understood.
puff--
A laugh escaped Wang Shuang's throat. He covered his mouth again and mumbled, "According to what you said, it's not just three parties who are looking forward to it. Mr. Guan will probably get involved too!"
Not only Wang Shuang understood, but Zhang Yangning also understood.
Zhang Yangning whispered, "It would be great if Boss Guan got involved. Boss Guan is... hehe."
Mr. Guan is a completely useless person, and he is where he is today thanks to his wife Liang Dan.
The involvement of General Guan increases the opponent's chances of failure.
Zhang Yangning couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this.
I hope God blesses Mr. Guan to successfully acquire shares!
Wang Shuang and Zhang Yangning were both happy, but Xie Qian's face did not look relaxed, and his brain was thinking at high speed.
What Wen Ying said was the best case scenario.
The opponent certainly has various differences that hold the show back, but expecting them to perform poorly and cause the ratings to plummet is pinning your hopes on someone else.
It is better to rely on yourself than on others. In the final analysis, as long as Wen Ying's independent creation and Tianjiao's new drama that is about to be filmed is strong enough, it doesn't matter whether Yu Tianlin plays Cao Shao's drama or whether the drama co-produced by Cao Shao and the coal boss is popular.
Isn’t “Emerald Forest” popular enough?
It’s because she was pressed to the ground by “The Princess’ New Clothes”!
——Tianjiao’s new play is strong enough that no matter what tricks Yu Tianlin uses, it will be useless. Li Mengjiao and Yun Chen will continue to be popular.
——The most important thing is that this is the drama that truly made Wen Ying famous. There was no Zhang Guangzhen, no other screenwriter, it was a script independently written by Wen Ying!
