Chapter 182

Stereotypes kill people.

During these years of ups and downs in the shopping mall, Gu Yuan has also met all kinds of people, and knows that people should not be judged by appearances, but now he repeatedly overturns in front of Lu Yang.

He's so good at breaking perceptions.

There are all-round talents in the world. Lu Yang's performance in songwriting and marketing was so outstanding that Gu Yuan thought he was not proficient in other aspects.

When he came, Lu Yang's performance in the car was the best example.

After all, it's hard for everyone to believe that a guy who is straightforward and doesn't study the world so well can write good commercials and even scripts for TV dramas.

Because the song is different from the script.

Songs, as long as you write a good melody and match the appropriate text, you can make many people like it, but the character design and story of the script require a lot of life experience and even the creator's thorough thinking.

Especially for this kind of urban workplace drama, it is very important whether the creator is proficient in human relationships.

Although the quality of the script is not yet known, Gu Yuan's previous cognition was gradually overturned with the appearance of the commercial script.

Lu Yang has a good foundation, at least he can write a short plot well.

If you can see the whole thing at a glance, if the overall script can have half the quality of this ad, then Gu Yuan really
I lost so much that even my grandson didn't dare to think about it.

After the work was arranged, the employees of the advertising company went to prepare the props. Taking advantage of this gap, Gu Yuan called Gu Qinghan to his side.

He didn't have the nerve to ask directly, so he could only insinuate: "Is Lu Yang's temper usually this straight?"

"Huh?" Gu Qinghan didn't understand what he meant.

"I'm talking about emotional intelligence." Gu Yuan said, "I'm afraid he will make you unhappy."

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Gu Qinghan shrugged. It's not that she can't accept this. It doesn't matter if her emotional intelligence is low, her character is what she values.

"Then why were you twisting his ear over there just now?"

Gu Qinghan rolled his eyes back, isn't it normal for couples to flirt and scold each other, then they must find a reason to declare their sovereignty, don't you see that the business of those advertising companies is small Does my sister look at him like seeing a fairy?
But she didn't say it, she just waited for Gu Yuan's next words.

Gu Yuan probed again: "I'm afraid that Lu Yang will suffer in the future in terms of human relationships, eh, after all, I treat him like my own son."

"Don't worry." Gu Qinghan didn't care, "He actually understands, but sometimes he can't get his head around. Besides, it's because of me."

"Oh, it's just that the temporary reaction may be a bit slow." Gu Yuan suddenly realized, but his heart was bleeding.

The daughter's words undoubtedly prove that Lu Yang knows the ways of the world, and on this basis, the quality of the script.
It might be really high.

"What's wrong?" Gu Qinghan asked.

"It's okay, it's okay." Gu Yuan waved his hand, "Let's discuss with Lu Yang how to make an advertisement."

Watching his daughter leave, Gu Yuan pressed his temples and slowly sat on the chair.

The advertisement has been settled, and the new drama invested by the daughter also has a vague tendency to make a small profit.

Everything is going in a good direction, but he doesn't want his daughter to be good.

He just wanted Gu Qinghan to go home and have a baby early!
Although on the surface he is an investor in Lu Yang's new drama, but he has not seen the script yet, and even if he has, it is hard to say what the quality of the script is.

Even if he asked Gu Qinghan face to face, he probably wouldn't be able to get an answer. Today, he can only ask director Chen Zhi as an investor, because outsiders will not know the twists and turns between father and daughter.

That's all.

He stood up, greeted a few people in the distance, ran to the corner, and dialed Chen Zhi's phone.

Chen Zhi is secretly casting.

Over the years, choosing traffic stars with no acting skills has always been a common problem in domestic dramas.

Regardless of the subject matter, fairy tales, urban dramas, and suspense dramas, the investment in each drama is much higher than before, but the allocation of funds is no longer what it used to be.

Half, or even more than half, of the money is distributed to the traffic stars as film remuneration, and a small part of the money is used for shooting venues and props, and then it is matched with fifty cents for special effects and cutouts that individuals can find.
The money invested is large, but the quality is getting lower and lower.

Chen Zhi has long been upset about this.

It just so happened that in today's production crew, investors have no requirements for casting. After Lu Yang paid him a part of the money, Chen Zhi hurriedly and secretly released the news of recruiting leading actors, just to find more actors with acting skills.

"These two can do it."

Seeing the auditioning actors walk away, Lao Li commented: "If they hadn't been blocked by the company a few years ago, I guess they could reach a higher position."

"They have to make a decision." Chen Zhi nodded, "What roles to give them is another matter, but there are fewer and fewer guys with acting skills in the new generation."

"What about the male lead?" Xiao Zhang asked: "Lu Yang wrote the script, and the heroine is his partner, and the two show affection every day. I always think he can be the male lead."

"I also want to choose Lu Yang." Chen Zhi nodded, "but it's hard to say."

"Actually, I also want to choose." Lao Li also agreed, "These two people have left a deep impression on the audience. If the male and female protagonists are not them, it will always make people feel like a drama, but...we have no good reason to get Lu Yang to agree. .”

"And most importantly, we still don't know his acting skills."

"It's difficult." Chen Zhi sighed quietly.

The three of them thought of a piece at the same time.

Although there seems to be no big difference between choosing Lu Yang and those traffic stars, after all, they are all guys with no acting skills, but the nature is completely different.

At least Lu Yang won't let people cut pictures, won't go to the set, won't mess around, and won't overturn his car.

The most important reason for choosing him as the male lead is that the crew has to take care of the publicity. After all, TV dramas of this era can't do without any gimmicks. They think it's a loss-making business.

In a drama, except for the male lead, if all the actors including the female lead have acting skills but no gimmicks, it is easy to create such a scene, they lack gimmicks.

And Lu Yang can completely make up for this problem. The screenwriter, the male lead, and the real-life boyfriend of the female lead have a lot of famous names. Who dares to say that their TV series has no gimmicks?

The only problem now is how to persuade Lu Yang to agree to act, and his acting skills.

After all, if he doesn't act well, compared to other people's acting skills, he will be easily criticized by the audience.

At this moment, Chen Zhi's phone rang.

Chen Zhi looked at Lao Li, then at Xiao Zhang, and signaled them not to speak, because it was the investor Gu Yuan who called.

In the corner of the commercial shooting site, Gu Yuan said to the phone, "Director Chen, how is the progress of the TV series?"

"Most of the roles have been selected so far." Chen Zhi explained truthfully, but noticed the expressions of the two people around him, and still mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, "It's the male lead, we haven't decided yet."

"The male protagonist?" Gu Yuan was overjoyed, and then asked about the script itself, "How is the quality of the script of this drama?"

"Great quality!"

The voice of Chen Zhi patting his chest came from the phone, "Gu Dong, don't worry, I will definitely be able to make this drama well. All the supporting roles are old dramas, and even the acting skills of those young actors are comparable to those of their peers." Li can also play very well."

I don't care about the high quality!

What I want is not high quality, but can I say?
Gu Yuan's thoughts changed sharply, it was impossible to do anything in this area, so he could only do it in other places.

The news that Chen Zhi didn't choose a good male lead is simply good news to him. There are so many old drama characters, but if the male lead has some flaws, then this shortcoming will definitely be infinitely magnified.

It's up to you, Xiao Luyang.

Don't blame uncle, uncle is also for your future children.

"Yeah..." Gu Yuan deliberately hesitated for a long time, and said, "Then Director Chen, the hero's words. What do you think Lu Yang will do?"

Chen Zhi was also happy, he was sleepy and offered a pillow, although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Gu Yuan's gourd, but he still wanted to make sense of it, and he couldn't let the other party know that it was too easy to handle.

"Lu Yang's acting skills don't seem to be enough."

Want is not enough!

Gu Yuan began to brainwash again, "It's okay, young people always need to grow up, if it's not enough now, will it be enough in the future?"

"This matter is not easy to handle." Chen Zhi pretended to hesitate.

"Give Lu Yang a chance." Gu Yuan said, "I think Qinghan should be able to teach him well."

"Then let me try?" When Chen Zhi said this, he almost couldn't suppress his smile.

"Just try it!" Gu Yuan added, "You have to have the courage to try!"

"Okay!" Chen Zhi said loudly, "Just try it!"

Both of them reached a common goal, and after a few words, the topic returned to the script.

Gu Yuan said: "Old Chen, I want to ask you from the bottom of my heart. Everyone says the script is good, but what is so good about this script?"

Chen Zhi was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that Gu Yuan, as an investor, hadn't seen the script until now.

But think about it, the screenwriter is the future son-in-law, and the heroine is the biological daughter. Such an investment does not need to read the script at all.

In order to appease Gu Yuan's heart, and also worried that the ratings would not be high in the future, and he would have a way out, Chen Zhi went further and said:
"Actually, Gu Dong, we agreed on this script, it's a very subjective thing."

"Oh?" The corners of Gu Yuan's mouth curled up, "Explain in detail."

"We don't know whether there is a market for this drama at present. After all, there were very few such niche professional dramas before." Chen Zhi carefully chose his words, "And domestic dramas, you know, we have to talk about any dramas. Fall in love, and the romance in this show is... a little less."

"What's wrong?" Gu Yuan wished that Chen Zhi could tell all the certainties, the more bad things he had, the happier he would be.

"The love plot of domestic dramas is usually the hero and heroine who sprinkle sugar wildly. Now I just read the script and found that the sugar in this drama is still too little."

Chen Zhi said, "Look at the domestic dramas on the market, whether it's ancient costumes or history, they are all sugar-sprinkled, and everyone has lost their minds. Even if the world is destroyed, they must engage in love."

"That's right." Gu Yuan agreed.

"A lot of people scolded the screenwriter, but in fact it's the audience's choice." Chen Zhi said, "Only in this way can we get money, and this drama is somewhat lacking in this aspect."

"It's okay, a small problem!" Gu Yuan didn't bother to change the script, "You just shoot according to the script!"

Even an insider can't say Chen Zhi is good, so what can he say as an outsider?
Although Gu Yuan himself doesn't like domestic dramas that are full of romances, but in the current environment, only CP audiences are willing to spend a lot of money.

It's good to have problems, what we want is to have problems!
"Then Gu Dong, I'll shoot first according to the script?" Chen Zhi asked tentatively.

"Shoot!" Gu Yuan said richly, "Call me if you don't have enough money!"

After the phone was hung up, Gu Yuan looked at Lu Yang who was wearing advertising props and costumes in the distance, and hummed a ditty contentedly.

The script for the ad was written an hour ago, and shooting started an hour later.

"Do you remember what I said?" Gu Qinghan asked.

"Remember." Lu Yang nodded, "Micro-expressions, movements, demeanor, all have small secrets, treat yourself as a real werewolf, and take your wife back for the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Very good." Gu Qinghan said, "The props are here, get ready."

This is Lu Yang's first filming. When Gu Yuan called, Gu Qinghan explained to him a lot of essentials of acting, and now he has to verify whether he has learned it.

He wasn't worried that he couldn't act well. The role of the male protagonist in the advertisement was more of a narration. Using the narration to tell the story, he only needed to show a few expressions.

But the real test is the action and demeanor of the heroine, which is very demanding.

Gu Qinghan is a professional in acting, these things are trivial to her.

The imagination was beautiful, but when the filming started, Lu Yang was still mentioned more than one sentence.

"Mr. Lu, stand here a little bit."

"Mr. Lu, your demeanor, pay attention to your demeanor."

"Mr. Lu, in this scene, the male lead imagines taking the female lead home, and he wants to show his worried emotions on his face."

"Mr. Road"

Mr. Lu's three characters made Lu Yang's ears almost callused.

mood!

mood!

mood!

It's not that he didn't put his heart into acting, it's that the werewolf costume and props are on his body, and the expression on his face is hard to express.

The details that Gu Qinghan explained to him before are completely useless.

There was a pile of thick props on his body, and the wolf fur of the props almost covered his face. I don't know what the sticky props were. His face was so stiff that he couldn't even laugh or cry.

And the figure is much stronger than before, it looks a little bloated, and it is inconvenient to move.

what details?
nonexistent!

On the contrary, Gu Yuan was not in a hurry. The more times Lu Yang got NG, the more it proved that his acting skills were not good. Besides, an advertisement does not really require high acting skills.

He terminated the shooting, "Shoot slowly, the photography teacher will communicate with Lu Yang, it's fine, just finish the shooting today."

"Xiaolu, Qinghan." Gu Yuan looked at the two of them, "Remember to go home for dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I still have things to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Bye-Bye."

Gu Yuan turned around and left, while others couldn't see the expression on his face, he laughed wildly silently but wantonly.

With this acting skill, isn't it a certainty that TV dramas will hit the street?
"There is a problem with the props." Gu Qinghan had noticed Lu Yang's face a long time ago, and she said to the commercial director, "When Lu Yang's face was covered with hair, it was too tightly attached, and he couldn't express his emotions at all."

"Let me see." The director stared at the prop on Lu Yang's face, and said, "Mr. Lu, smile."

Lu Yang smiled stiffly.

Can't laugh.

He tried to smile again.

Still can't laugh.

"Damn it." The director roared behind him, "Props!"
