"Yes, sooner or later, the Tianjiao will take this step."
Yuan Fenghui glanced at the nervous Zhang Guangzhen, and finally nodded after Wen Ying's persuasion: "No need to change the script, let's just shoot it like this."
"ah?"
Zhang Guangzhen stood up suddenly, incredulous: "Actually, it's okay to change it. If it doesn't work, you can assign a role to Yunchen..."
Yuan Fenghui waved her hand, "If I say no, then no. Your story isn't suitable for Yun Chen. If you force him into a role, what will happen to the other characters? Yun Chen is so handsome, it's too out of place for him to appear in such a down-to-earth drama. Changing the script is a small matter, but it hurts me more to ruin Yun Chen's character!"
Yuan Fenghui is a very decisive person, and she is also not lacking in vision and courage. She consulted Wen Ying's opinion because she cared too much about this matter. In fact, she only needed a gentle push from Wen Ying to make up her mind.
Zhang Guangzhen wrote a story set in the alleys of Shanghai for Jiaxin Film and Television Company, telling the joys and sorrows of several families against the backdrop of a great era.
When it came to Tianjiao's turn, Zhang Guangzhen wrote a script about cross-strait marriage.
Since Taiwan opened its policy of visiting relatives in mainland China in 1987, the number of cross-strait marriages has been rising year by year, reaching a peak of 30,000 couples in 2003. In the past two years, this figure has slowly declined, but mainland women marrying to Taiwan is still the mainstream pattern of cross-strait marriages. It is very rare for a Taiwan woman to marry a mainland man.
It is precisely because of its rarity that the story is attractive. Zhang Guangzhen's script uses the background of a Taiwanese woman marrying a mainland man. The love is of course very sweet, but with the conclusion of the marriage, the conflicts between the couple have just begun.
Where to settle down after marriage is the biggest disagreement between couples.
The wife wants to return to Taiwan, but the husband insists on staying in the mainland. The conflict extends from the couple to the two families. No one is a real bad guy in the whole story, it is more of a conflict of ideas.
Wen Ying thought it was particularly interesting because Zhang Guangzhen’s ideas were different from those of ordinary people from Taiwan.
At the end of the story, Zhang Guangzhen got his wife to agree to settle in the mainland. This was not only because the wife compromised for love, but also because the husband proved to his wife through his own efforts that it would be better for the couple to stay in the mainland to work hard. This cross-strait marriage got back on track after being on the verge of collapse. The story can be said to have a perfect ending!
"Teacher Yuan is right. Your script is not suitable for Yun Chen. There is no point in forcing changes."
The drama is good, but it is really unsuitable.
Yun Chen will have to come into contact with such a serious drama sooner or later, but it is too early now.
Let Yun Chen play a mainland husband... forget it, it's too unconvincing.
If Yun Chen is given other supporting male roles, it would be a degradation of his status, and Yuan Fenghui would be heartbroken!
Wen Ying thought the script was good, not only because of the story itself, but also because Zhang Guangzhen's story concept gave Wen Ying hope of winning an award - film and television companies cannot just make dramas that make money, recognition from industry awards is also indispensable.
The previous works "The Princess' New Clothes" and "Star River and You" were not suitable, and the genre would not be favored by the judges, but Zhang Guangzhen's new script has a good chance.
No wonder others say that one cannot write a serious drama without some life experience. Take Wen Ying for example, it is easy for her to write urban idol dramas and workplace dramas, as these are the life experiences Wen Ying has had.
Even writing a fantasy background is not a problem, Wen Ying can rely on her imagination.
Write about marriage and family?
She had never been married in her previous life!
If you force yourself to write about similar themes, the resulting story will not stand up to scrutiny and will most likely be criticized as a bad drama.
Wen Ying has a very positive attitude. Zhang Guangzhen was worried before, but after the lobbying of Wen Ying and Yuan Fenghui, he felt a little elated.
Zhang Guangzhen thought of a crucial point: "We can discuss with Jiaxin the broadcast schedules of the two dramas so that they don't compete on the schedules, but when it comes to submitting awards next year, who should give in?"
Yuan Fenghui laughed: "Competition is the norm, and no one wants to give in. You wrote the script, but the filming and production are done by two different companies. Who wins the award depends entirely on their own ability!"
Wen Ying didn't care, "No matter who wins the award, you won't suffer any loss, Teacher Zhang!"
Zhang Guangzhen nodded frequently as the three of them discussed the award seriously. If outsiders heard it, they would definitely be speechless.
——Are these two dramas the only ones that can win awards?
Yes, all three of them firmly believed that both dramas had the potential to win awards.
After making the decision, Yuan Fenghui had a strong execution ability and immediately called people to a meeting to set up the project and invest in it. There were many things to consider, including who to choose as the director, how to cast the actors, what the shooting period would be, and how much the shooting would cost.
Mrs. Wang was drafted into the army, and she felt a little overwhelmed:
"I'm from the PR department!"
Mrs. Wang, the head of the public relations department, just returned from Shanghai recently. During this period, Mrs. Wang stayed in Shanghai not to handle personal matters, but to set up the Tianjiao Shanghai office.
Now it is just an office. In less than a year, Yuan Fenghui will transfer most of Tianjiao’s business to Shanghai. Rongcheng will no longer be Tianjiao’s main battlefield.
Yuan Fenghui and Wen Ying exchanged a glance, and Wen Ying coughed dryly, "Aunt Dong, there haven't been any public relations crises lately. How about you take on the role of producer?"
“……!!”
Mrs. Wang didn't want this part-time job, but unfortunately she couldn't convince others with her own words, so she had to bite the bullet and become the producer.
When Mrs. Wang left the office, Wen Ying heard some cursing, not at Wen Ying and Yuan Fenghui, but at Wang Shuang.
Mrs. Wang's life was delayed by her son's disappointment.
Even though Wen Ying is a very ambitious person, she cannot let her parents live a carefree life. Chen Ru is still trying to "save" her daughter's future behind Wen Ying's back.
Wen Ying stayed in Tianjiao for a little longer, so Chen Ru and Xie Qian happened to have a light lunch.
