The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 549 Modify the ending? !
The death of Xu Wenqiang is a rare tragic ending in Hong Kong since the TV broadcast began.

In terms of Chinese people's aesthetic perception, the happy ending is undoubtedly the most popular.This is probably because Chinese people have been troubled by many disasters since ancient times, so they yearn for reunion and cherish feelings even more.Since it is difficult to achieve this point in real life, a fictional happy ending should also be fabricated.

However, the death of Xu Wenqiang made the TV series "Shanghai Bund" end in tragedy, which was completely beyond people's expectations.Everyone thought that Feng Jingyao was dead, Nie Renwang was dead, and Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang had become a new generation of tycoons.The next step should be to find Feng Chengcheng and live a happy life.

Unexpectedly, when Xu Wenqiang set out to find Feng Chengcheng in France, he was shot to death as soon as he went out.At that moment, all Hong Kong audiences sitting in front of the TV watching "Shanghai Bund" were dumbfounded.After they reacted, a series of cursing almost brought the roof down.

After the finale of "Shanghai Bund" was broadcast, TVB's hotline was immediately blasted by extremely angry Hong Kong citizens. People strongly demanded that the TV station change the ending, otherwise they would no longer watch TVB dramas in the future.

The operator was busy for a while, and the staff present were also frightened by the raging enthusiasm of the audience. They had never seen such a magical power in a TV series.

It is not the first time in Hong Kong that viewers are dissatisfied with the ending of a TV series and call the TV station to ask for a change in the ending of the TV series.In fact, because the TV dramas were being played while they were being broadcast, the TV station also paid close attention to the reaction of the audience. Every day, someone collected similar information, and then handed it over to the TV drama producer for discretion.

The producer will modify the plot of the TV series according to the audience's reaction, add or delete some actors' roles, and even kick the actors out of the game.Because too many viewers are dissatisfied with the image of a certain actor, they jointly signed a boycott. Even the TV station can hardly bear the similar pressure.

……

Xu Guanwu fell asleep after watching the finale of "Shanghai Bund" last night. Regarding Xu Wenqiang's death in "Shanghai Bund", Xu Guanwu was also very surprised when he watched it for the first time. He actually had some feelings about the ending. Unfortunately, I feel that Xu Wenqiang didn't deserve to die.

But after thinking about it carefully later, Xu Wenqiang's death was actually doomed long ago.

He was originally a top student at Yenching University, but he was imprisoned for three years for leading student Yun Dong.Although the TV series did not describe how he spent the past three years in prison, but if you think about it a little, you will know that for a proud man like Xu Wenqiang, being locked up with those hooligan murderers in prison is undoubtedly It's like being in hell.

In the prison, Xu Wenqiang saw things that were not mentioned in the books, and saw through the essence of this world that whoever has the money listens to whomever.So after he was released from prison, he left Peiping and came to Shanghai in Shiliyangchang to travel the world.

But Xu Wenqiang is still a passionate young man with a higher education after all. Maybe he thought that his heart was ashamed, but when he found out that Feng Jingyao was colluding with the Japanese, the morality in his heart still prevailed over his personal interests, which made him kill the Japanese woman regardless of his own safety. The spy Shankou Xiangzi offended his boss Feng Jingyao because of this and attracted him to hunt down.

Xu Wenqiang was courageous, resourceful, affectionate and righteous. He dared to single-handedly break into the bandit's lair to snatch back the movie copy, and also dared to negotiate with the rented foreigners. It was his courage that allowed him to gain a firm foothold in Shanghai.And he first used A Bing's hand to get rid of Boss Li, and then killed A Bing himself. He avenged Boss Li and took his business along with him, and quickly became the leader of the small gang in Shanghai.

He clearly knew that Feng Chengcheng admired him, and that she was the daughter of Feng Jingyao, a tycoon in Shanghai, and that once he married her, he would make a fortune in no time, but he kept Feng Chengcheng out of the door several times.Because he knew that Feng Chengcheng was a very pure girl, so he didn't want him to tarnish her.Just because he lived in the shabby room of Ding Li's house for one night on the first day when he came to Shanghe, he became a good brother who shared difficulties with him. Forgive him again and again and teach him a lot.

For such an outstanding character, everyone is drunk and I am alone, and there is no room for him in this ruthless and unjust place.Only ruthless heroes like Feng Jingyao, Nie Renwang, and Ding Li can survive in Shanghai.

……

When getting up early to eat, Zhao Yazhi opened the newspaper, "Wow, the newspapers are talking about the ending of "Shanghai Bund"."

"Oh?! How did you say it?" Xu Guanwu asked curiously.

"The above said that Xu Wenqiang's death caused a sensation in Hong Kong. Last night, the TVB hotline was exploded. Many people protested that Xu Wenqiang should not be allowed to die, and strongly demanded TVB to modify the ending." Zhao Yazhi read.

Xu Guanwu chuckled, "It's impossible to change the ending. The good thing about this drama is that Xu Wenqiang died. Otherwise, if it had a happy ending, then the style of this drama would be lost."

"I also think it's a pity that Wen Qiang died, but if he really has to go to France to find Cheng Cheng, I don't think Cheng Cheng will be with him." Zhao Yazhi thought for a while, "Because the relationship between the two Love and hate are too entangled. Feng Chengcheng loves her father very much. Although she also knows that he has done all kinds of bad things, to her, he is a good father who loves her and loves her. So she loves Wenqiang That’s right, it’s hard to overcome this in the end and get back together with him again.”

"That's right." Xu Guanwu nodded, "So it's better for Xu Wenqiang to die, so that the whole world will be clean. Ding Li will continue to be his Shanghai tycoon, and Feng Chengcheng will continue to heal his wounds in France..."

"Then what about the audience's opinions?" Zhao Yazhi asked suspiciously.

"It doesn't matter, the audience's enthusiasm comes and goes quickly. When the next TV series is broadcast, people will forget about Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng." Xu Guanwu smiled and said.

"That's right, right and wrong, success and failure turn heads, and the audience will always like the new and dislike the old." Zhao Yazhi sighed, "By the way, the recruiting producer said that if I want to, I will start a new drama for me immediately."

"Forget it, forget it, haven't we already agreed that there will be two TV dramas every year, no more." Xu Guanwu waved his hands hurriedly, "Besides, you still have Xiao Simo now, let alone focus on work Now, you should spend more time with our father and son when you are free, right son?!"

Xiao Simo was drinking milk quietly at the side, but he couldn't help nodding frequently when he heard his father's question.

"See, my son also hopes that you will spend more time with him." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Besides, as the proprietress, you should not always compete with the employees for food, and give the newcomers a little more chance, otherwise when will they be able to do it?" Come on."

"Okay then, I'll make it clear to the recruiting producer later." Seeing Xu Guanwu's strong objection, Zhao Yazhi shook her head and said, "By the way, I heard that Qingxia's new film is about to start shooting, right?"

"That's right, "Love in a Fallen City", one of Ms. Zhang Ailing's representative works, was extremely sensational back then." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "For this drama, we also invested a lot this time."

"Oh, I really envy her that she can come out to make movies." Zhao Yazhi couldn't help but said enviously.

"What's there to be envious of? You were the well-deserved No. [-] heroine of Xu's Film Company in the early years." Xu Guanwu glanced at her and said, "Having won the box office champion for many years is enough for you to show off for a lifetime."

"You still say that I am the number one heroine of Xu's film company, but I am just a vase in the movie. The scenes are all taken up by the eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother. From the appearance to the end, I have a total of lines No more than twenty lines, not as many lines as supporting roles, how can she be considered a heroine?" Zhao Yazhi said angrily.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help laughing when he heard it. Indeed, in Xu's early ghost comedies, there was very little room for female characters to play, and most of them were just vases.Take Zhao Yazhi's "Half a Catty" as an example. In a one-and-a-half-hour movie, her role in the scene does not exceed 5 minutes in total, and the lines are very limited. The wife is brilliant.

"Then what do you mean, do you have to actually star in a movie?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

"Yes, if you can prepare a script for Qingxia, why can't I?" Zhao Yazhi asked angrily.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help being dumbfounded, "Okay, okay, what movie do you want to act in, choose another day and tell me, as long as it's not the kind of tripolar romance movie, I won't stop it here. Is this the head office?"

"That's about the same." Zhao Yazhi nodded.

Xu Guanwu couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, it seems that he should act in a low-key manner in the future, otherwise the two women will compare each other, and sooner or later it will cause disaster.

……

Xu Guanwu then returned to the company, and Liang Shuyi rushed over before he could sit still.

"Stanley, many viewers are now calling and asking us to modify the ending of "Shanghai Bund." Liang Shuyihui reported, "Now we are under a lot of pressure. In my opinion, whether to follow the audience's opinion and modify the ending is also a good idea." it is good."

"No, I approve of this tragic ending." Xu Guanwu waved his hands and said, "Only the death of Xu Wenqiang can make "Shanghai Bund" a classic, otherwise it's just a good-looking drama about fighting for hegemony."

"But the audience is so angry that it's hard to control their emotions." Liang Shuyi said with a bitter face.

"What are you afraid of? The emotions of the audience can come and go quickly. Don't get confused now, just wait for two days. The successor to "Shanghai Beach" is not the Gu Long martial arts TV series "Farewell Hook" starring Xie Xian, Huang Shuyi and others What? This TV series should get good ratings. When people watch "Farewell Hook", who will remember Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng?" Xu Guanwu waved his hands.

Liang Shuyi nodded, and said with a sigh of relief, "I don't even remember such a simple truth, it's really damn, damn it. I should have known that the audience loves the new and dislikes the old. As long as the new drama is good, why would I care about other things?" things."

"Yeah, I also feel that you are out of standard today. Is it because you didn't rest well last night? Your complexion seems to be very bad." Xu Guanwu also laughed.

"Yeah, after the broadcast of "Shanghai Beach" yesterday, the audience started calling the TV station, and the staff immediately called me when they couldn't hold on, which kept me busy until now, even the finale of "Shanghai Beach" The new version of the script has been written." Liang Shuyi smiled and said.

"You really worked hard." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Show me the script, what kind of adaptation are you going to do?"

"What we adapted this time is that Xu Wenqiang went to France, but Feng Chengcheng was never found, and Ding Li continued to be his Shanghai tycoon." Liang Shuyi laughed, "It's too much, we only put all the scenes after Xu Wenqiang left the hotel. Delete it, and then use subtitles to explain the plot, so that you don’t need actors to perform anymore, and you can save a lot of money.”

"Hehe, this method is not bad, but the ending really doesn't need to be revised, and it will become clichéd." Xu Guanwu smiled and said.

"Yes, I also think that if the ending is not revised, the grade of this drama will be higher. But Xu Wenqiang died this time, so that it is difficult for us to make a sequel." Liang Shuyi laughed.
