Reborn great writer

Chapter 80 The biggest opponent!

"Hi, everyone, viewers, welcome to watch today's show, and watch it for entertainment. Today's program invites a crew. Welcome to the crew of "New Liaozhai"."

Entertainment Lianliankan is the main program of Phoenix Satellite TV. Some well-known movies or TV series will be promoted on this program. At the same time, Phoenix Satellite TV, as one of the three major TVs in China, is naturally rich and powerful. Entertainment Lianlian is regarded as the main program ratings Naturally not low, it can be said to be one of the top variety shows in China.

Originally, "New Journey to the West" was about to start when it was launched, but it was caught in the black sea, Yu Qiyuan and Su Shichen's attitude was that they were desperate, closed shooting and did not appear in any programs, so they missed it.

"This is Zhang Ruo, the great director of the crew of "New Liaozhai". Director Zhang wants to say anything to the audience for this remake of "Liao Zhai"?"

""Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" is a collection of short stories created by Pu Songling, a famous novelist in the Qing Dynasty in China. There are 491 pieces in total. The themes are extensive, the content is rich, the story plots are tortuous, and the layout is exquisite. The stories in it are believed to be familiar to most people. Familiar ones include "Three Monsters of Quzhou", "Xiaocui", "Yan Luoyan", "Stealing Peach", "Dong Sheng" and so on."

"There are too many classic stories in Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio, so I won't go into details here"

"Moreover, the artistic achievements of the original work are very high. It has successfully created many artistic images, with flesh and blood, like the fox girl Xiaocui, Xi Fangping who went to the underworld to avenge his father, and the king who has the magical power to punish corrupt officials. This king is different from Western movies. The superheroes he admires have the same purpose, and can be said to be our superheroes in China."

""Strange Stories from a Liaozhai Studio" can be said to be one of the most famous ghost novels in China. Although it has been made into a movie many times, there has never been a TV series. It has to be said that it is a pity."

"Maybe this is also related to the length of the original work. There are 491 chapters and each chapter is very short. However, the goal of our crew this time is to work hard to produce a classic that belongs to the TV series "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio." Zhang Ruo was full of enthusiasm .

"Just now, Director Zhang, you have said that "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" has a lot of length and is very short. May I ask how you overcome this problem and bring classics to the audience?"

The reason why Entertainment Lianliankan is a classic is not only because it can invite big-name star directors, but also because the host, the host of Entertainment Lianliankan, is not a nympho and blindly flattering his feet, the level of questioning is very high High, very valuable, and can often ask some exciting questions for the audience.

For example, like this question, this question is not asked by ordinary hosts, because it is a little bit sharp, and it tastes like a slap in the face. Adaptation, why can you shoot classics.

"I am going to make this remake and make "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" into a series. At the beginning, I will shoot five stories as the first part, and each story will have eight to fifteen episodes. Of course, I will select the most famous ones from the original works. The story began to be remade, and the screenwriters in the crew initially set their sights on the five stories of "Nie Xiaoqian", "Painted Skin", "Xi Fangping", "Ying Ning", and "Lu Juan". Of course, this may not be the final choice. Sure, but the difference is not big."

"It is impossible for a TV series to shoot all the nearly [-] stories of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", so our method is the safest. Similarly, although the stories in "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" are short, they can be obtained after the expansion of the screenwriter. Next, it is very appropriate to complete one chapter from eight to fifteen episodes, and the first part is expected to be [-] episodes, and our crew, both actors and screenwriters, are elites, so we are confident that what we shoot will definitely be a classic." Zhang Ruo is categorical. , and the words are very organized, obviously not blind self-confidence.

"Then what is Director Zhang's goal for this filming?"

"Naturally, it is the annual TV drama rating champion." Zhang Ruo let out his domineering air.

"Will the director feel any pressure on "New Journey to the West" that Director Yu Qiyuan is filming?" asked the host of Entertainment Lianliankan.

"The pressure must be there. After all, "New Journey to the West" is the main drama of CCTV, and director Yu Qiyuan is also a very good director, but I am confident that "New Liaozhai" can become the best TV series of the year."

……

Another big drama is coming, it is also a remake of a famous book, and it is also a well-known director.

"Journey to the West" and "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" are both classic works of ghosts and gods in ancient times. Although "Journey to the West" is known as the four major masterpieces, when it comes to popularity, "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" is not much worse than "Journey to the West".

After all, characters such as Xiaocui and Xiaoqian have already been known to everyone through movies.

As for the director, Yu Qiyuan is a great director in Huaxia, but director Zhang Ruo is not just for nothing.The last sentence of Zhang Ruo was quoted by most newspapers - "But I am confident that "New Liaozhai" can become the best TV series of the year"

"The big drama is coming <New Journey to the West> please be careful"

An article published on Movie Weekend——

[The opening ceremony of "New Journey to the West" has attracted a lot of attention, because it is the main drama of CCTV, and there is no big drama that can compete with it in the same year, so even if there are any problems with the crew of "New Journey to the West", the editor will I believe that "New Journey to the West" can become the best TV series of the year. As for whether it can surpass the old version of "Journey to the West", the editor is neutral.

With the support of director Yu Qiyuan and CCTV, as well as the joining of various first-class actors, these are not fake. Even if there are problems with the script, these alone are enough to support the best TV series of the year.

But now that "New Liaozhai" is attacking "New Journey to the West", can it stop it? ]

"Everyday Entertainment" published such an article on the newspaper——

"Zhang Ruo pk Yu Qiyuan, the battle is fierce"

[In the first half of next year, you don’t have to worry about not having any good shows. After Director Yu Qiyuan announced the remake of Journey to the West, the famous director Zhang Ruo once again sent news to remake "Liao Zhai"! !

Director Zhang Ruo wisely chose the method of excerpts. The five stories in the excerpts are all well-known in the streets. "Liao Zhai" also formed a five-person screenwriting team, and what is more worth mentioning is that four of these five people are the four screenwriters Shao Feng who quit the "New Journey to the West" crew. ]

These articles are relatively neutral, and most of the articles are biased towards the "New Liaozhai" side.

For example, the entertainment newspaper "Entertainment Early Knowing" published such an article——

"A Detailed Discussion on the Advantages of "New Journey to the West""

[What are the advantages of "New Journey to the West"?

The editor will give you a detailed count of the first. This drama is a big production set by CCTV. In terms of support and promotion, it is not comparable to ordinary TV dramas.

But this advantage is nothing compared to the crew of "New Liaozhai", because Mango TV invested in the filming of "New Liaozhai". Although Mango TV is not as good as CCTV, it is very popular among the post-[-]s and post-[-]s. Not bad, so this advantage of "New Journey to the West" is removed.

The second "New Journey to the West" has a very strong cast, the veteran Shidi Huang Sanqian, the strongest newcomer Li Lishu in Asia, the idol superstar Qiu Yeming, and even the white dragon horse is played by the actor's son Wang Zimo. The description is still a bit shabby, this is a big truck.

But is the crew of "New Liaozhai" bad?Although it has not been officially announced that those actors will join, Zhang Ruo has announced that the protagonists of the five stories will respectively invite five TV emperors or film emperors to star in them. Journey to the West".

The third advantage of "New Journey to the West" is that the director is capable, but this point is naturally removed. Director Yu Qiyuan is capable, but director Zhang Ruo is not just for nothing.

To sum up, all the advantages of "New Journey to the West" are gone in front of "New Liaozhai". On the contrary, "New Liaozhai" has an advantage over "New Journey to the West", that is, director Zhang Ruo did not make confused arrangements, but Director Yu Qiyuan made a wrong move, so this newspaper predicts that "New Journey to the West" will lose in the pk with "New Liaozhai"! ! ! ]

Yu Qiyuan's wrong move mentioned in the "Entertainment Early Knowing" report should be to hire Su Shichen as the screenwriter of "New Journey to the West".

"The untold story between Zhang Ruo and Yu Qiyuan" Dahe Daily has attracted many readers with such a sensational headline, but the content is actually——

[Zhang Ruo and Yu Qiyuan are both great directors in China. These two directors have many similarities. won the highest award.

Therefore, in terms of strength, it can be said that the two directors are equivalent. "New Liaozhai" has 60 episodes and "New Journey to the West" has more than [-] episodes. According to the production process, the two TV series should collide.

According to the usual practice, it should be a fierce duel, but because director Yu Qiyuan was eager for success, he pulled the prelude to this duel ahead of time, which is sad and sad. ]

This is not the most extreme. Some of the most extreme newspapers praised "New Liaozhai" by criticizing "New Journey to the West". I don't know if this was arranged by the crew of "New Liaozhai".

Just like the report published in "Zhibao"——

"New Journey to the West" and "New Liaozhai" are completely incomparable! "

[Today, the editor saw many reports comparing "New Journey to the West" with "New Liaozhai", and some media also said that the collision of the two dramas will definitely be very exciting. What I want to ask is the relationship between an aircraft carrier and "New Liaozhai". Will there be a violent collision between the small sailboats?

No, of course not, when an aircraft carrier collides with a small boat, the small boat will definitely sink to the bottom of the sea, but it has no effect on the aircraft carrier at all. "New Liaozhai" is an aircraft carrier and "New Journey to the West" is a small boat. The two dramas will be broadcast at the same time next year, and there will never be any fierce collisions, because "New Journey to the West" will sink to the bottom of the sea when it meets "New Liaozhai"! ! ]

The media's reports seemed that "New Liaozhai" was definitely ahead of "New Journey to the West" in terms of ratings. Countless newspapers frantically reproduced such articles.

Even the crew of "New Liaozhai" seemed confident when interviewed.

One of the five leading actors in "New Liaozhai" said in an interview with reporters, ""New Liaozhai" can definitely win the annual ratings champion. As for the works of director Yu Qiyuan, I can only say that I am sorry to meet "New Liaozhai" "Liao Zhai", otherwise it would definitely be the annual ratings champion, but now the championship has been won by us."

One of the five female protagonists heard that the candidate for the role of Xiaoqian also implicitly expressed her opinion in the face of the reporter's questioning, "Although "New Liaozhai" is composed of five stories, it may not be as good as "New Journey to the West" ", but under the superb filming of director Zhang Ruo and the joining of all the big names, I am confident that I can surpass "New Journey to the West" and become the best TV series of the year."

Of course, the most intense one in the interview was screenwriter Shao Feng. When facing the camera, Shao Feng said without any scruples, "How can "New Journey to the West" compare with "New Liaozhai", I can already imagine a layman It takes a man a month to write a script, and the TV dramas produced according to this script must be scattered. Whether the audience can understand it is a problem, let alone the competition for the best TV drama of the year. It can be expected that "New Liaozhai" will overwhelm "New Journey to the West."

Originally, "New Journey to the West" had already fallen into the Black Sea due to the last opening ceremony, but after two months, the Black Sea has also slowly settled, and not many people remember it anymore, but this time it was lifted again.

When it comes to "New Liaozhai", most people will compare it with "New Journey to the West", but in the end, most of the media will think that "New Journey to the West" will be crushed by "New Liaozhai".

The reputation of "New Journey to the West" once again fell to the bottom, but the crew of "New Journey to the West" did not appear to come out to fight or accept interviews at all, and they still filmed on their own.
