  Chapter 257【257】Maybe Zhang Yang himself

The preparations for "Sculpture of the Gods" are proceeding step by step and in an orderly manner. The filming will start in June as originally planned. The two leading actors will not be able to join the group until after the holiday in July. However, there are still many scenes where the two are not present, which can be filmed in advance .

Full live-action shooting has its advantages, but of course it also has disadvantages, such as cost, so although the scenes where Zhang Yang and Lin Yiran are not present have yet to be screened, in order to avoid repeating two or three trips to a location, the specific shooting work still needs to be done Further detailed planning.

Generally speaking, a TV series can start preparing for promotion when the project is established. There are many film and television projects that have been hyped up without a cast, such as "The Legend of Condor Heroes", which are ready to start filming and have not yet started promotion. It's rare—crews like this are basically out of money.

However, since the end of the year, there have been rumors circulating on the Internet that CTV will film "The Legend of Condor Heroes". "The Legend of Condor Heroes" will be adapted into a TV series. Shooting, undoubtedly greatly exceeded the expectations of many people.

  As for the rumors that Li Changge will direct, few people dare to believe it.

  Gao Wan and Li Changge didn't care about such rumors. Apart from keeping the main actors in a state of high secrecy, they seemed to be indifferent to other things about the shooting.

  With the popularity of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", even if there is no active promotion, rumors about the filming have spread for a long time, and naturally there will be many people discussing it. Most of them are most concerned about who will play the little dragon girl.

Since this period of time, the number of actresses rumored on the Internet that "XXX will star in Little Dragon Girl" has reached double digits, including Jing Yuan and Tong Xiaoke, as well as several actresses that Zhang Yang has never heard of, but Judging from the spontaneous discussion among readers, Tong Xiaoke, Jing Yuan, and Zhang Yu have a relatively high degree of recognition, but it is far from reaching the level that most people are satisfied with.

   For this reason, many viewers think that it is better not to shoot, lest the filming will not be able to watch.

Compared with the confusion and passivity in the promotion of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", the promotion work of "Great Wind Song" is undoubtedly excellent and much more efficient. When it was confirmed, "Great Wind Song" had just started auditioning, and the main actors hadn't been finalized yet. There were already warm-ups on the Internet and on TV. By the 29th, the main cast was officially announced.

  The director's name is Qian Mu, a senior director in the industry. His most famous work, "Splendid Love", ranked second in last year's most popular drama, and it can be said to be in the limelight.

  In addition, Jing Yuan and Yang Yuxi, who were originally rumored on the Internet to star in "The Legend of Condor Heroes", are also on the list, and they will play the first and second female roles respectively.

"Great Wind Song" is Shang Gongyu's pinnacle work. In the eyes of fans who love him, even if they dare not say it is better than Zhang Muzhi's "Shooting the Condors" and "Shen Condor", when they are usually mentioned, they are all side by side. During the serialization period of "Great Wind Song", the sales volume of the gold list also stabilized at the low end. I have long been dissatisfied with the behavior of the outside world who generally emphasizes "Sculpture of God" and despise "Great Wind". It's just that at that time, apart from the gold chart sales, it was really difficult to come up with more examples of "Great Wind Song" surpassing "Sculpture of God".

  Finally got the chance this time: You have been promoting "Sculpture of the Gods" for almost half a year, and you still boasted that it was filmed by China Television and Li Changge. Now what? Almost half a year has passed, and rumors are still flying all over the sky, but our "Great Wind Song" made a low-key official announcement! That's the difference!

These online wars of words are nothing new, and Zhang Yang has seen them by chance, but he doesn't care about them. As far as he is concerned, these things are really not enough for him to worry about. Things that can be easily resolved by an announcement, The question is only when the announcement will be most effective.

He felt that Gao Wan and Li Changge hadn't taken the initiative to promote for so long, and they should be waiting for this opportunity. The two families provoked a sense of gunpowder, which is to promote each other's promotion, which is beneficial to each other - of course, once it is broadcast, the loser must be to be punished.

   But the publicity is done. When it airs, the broadcasting rights have already been sold. Can you get the money back? In the worst case, it is just a few words of scolding, which is not painful or itchy, and few people in this industry will care.

  Again, scolding is scolding, people who should read it will still read it.

  On the eve of the traffic era, people in the circle of these basic operations are no strangers. However, although Gao Wan and Li Changge aspire to start a business, they are still within the system and have work tasks. They should just borrow "Great Wind Song" to maximize the effect of the "publicity" card .

This is also the reason for the secrecy in advance. If the news of Zhang Yang and Lin Yiran's starring role is known in advance, "Great Wind Song" will never make people stir up the flames. If you step on "Sculpture of God" so arrogantly, you know it is a landmine. Kind of old fritters will definitely grasp the propriety, just rub a little heat, and will never really step on it.

  Even so, Zhang Yang was a little surprised by the boldness of the capital in this world. Although it was a secret act, but knowing that "The Legend of Condor Heroes" was filmed by China Television, he dared to do such a small trick, and he had to say admiration.

However, the other party may know a deeper "insider story", knowing that "Sculpture of the Gods" is only produced by China Television, and even the broadcast may not necessarily be broadcast by China Television. Stepping on it is far from being hostile or offending CTS.

  In the evening, Li Changge made a phone call with Zhang Yang. Only then did Zhang Yang realize that the commercial drama he had imagined all day was all overthinking!

  Li Changge and Gao Wan never thought about promoting in advance!

Both of them are masters in their respective fields, but they have always worked within the system, and the propaganda within the system is very different from commercial operations. For example, their filming work in the past was also a big production, but From investment, filming to broadcasting, it is all operated within China Television, and there is no concept of hype or price increase at all.

  I pay for it myself, shoot and broadcast it myself, and it’s all a task, whether it’s making money or losing money, it’s all about shooting, and it’s enough to put in the effort to make the show well.

The introduction of external investment this time, especially after Zhang Yang put forward the condition of "not necessarily broadcasting at China TV", can be said to have completely broken the original mode of operation. Although Xi and Jiang Qing were born in Hongzhuang, they are separated from film and television, even if they are cramming for relevant knowledge, how much can they really know?

  The most important thing is the existence of Li Changge and Gao Wan. The identities and qualifications of the two industry leaders make everyone full of confidence in them. Even if they have doubts sometimes, they may not speak out directly.

That is because "Great Wind Song" is quite well-known, and the shooting date and broadcast schedule may collide. Gao Wan and Li Changge have been paying attention and noticed each other's actions, so they feel that they seem to have forgotten something. I will wait until the shooting starts as usual before I will find the media to make an "announcement".

  After realizing that this shooting was different from the past, and after the two discussed it, Li Changge came to discuss with Zhang Yang again: "How about we also promote it?"

Zhang Yang figured out the whole story, and almost didn't vomit blood. He was very suspicious that the hype method of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" submitted by the whole people was definitely not from Li Changge's handwriting, but this is also normal. Although Li Changge is the chief director, his own professionals or teams are in charge of all aspects , and "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", as the four major masterpieces, has different meanings in TV drama shooting, so they cannot be generalized.

   Publicity must be publicized, but now "Great Wind Song" seems to be tied to "The Legend of Condor Heroes", how to publicize it still needs to be discussed.

  As an industry insider, Li Changge is very familiar with the response to these matters, saying: "Don't worry about them, we shoot better than them, no matter what method we use, after the broadcast, we can compete with word-of-mouth and be fair and comfortable."

Li Changge has been in the "circle" for many years. Naturally, he is not a naive person. The reason why he firmly believes in this is based on the premise that his own popularity and attention will never be suppressed by the other party. Otherwise, in this era, Are there still few works of good quality but no one cares about them, no matter in the past or present?

And this confidence, on the one hand, comes from being backed by China TV, and it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, on the other hand, it is because of Zhang Yang's publicity and starring with Lin Yiran, the attention that can be attracted is definitely incomparable to the other party's propaganda methods .

Li Changge has already discussed with Gao Wan, and he has a calculation in his heart. Although Zhang Yang is a bit indecisive, he still has the self-knowledge of "believing in professionalism". Even if he is a little doubtful about Li Changge's professionalism now, after thinking about it for himself, he also agrees with Li Changge Next processing:

  Tomorrow night, the home lineup and shooting date of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" will be announced!

However, with this lesson learned, Zhang Yang did not dare to "trust" Gao Wan and Li Changge anymore. After hanging up the phone, he immediately contacted Kan Wenxi and asked Yiyang Film and Television's newly established propaganda department - currently only two people, one The team leader, a team member—follow up the promotional operation of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" in real time, mainly to avoid such low-level mistakes from happening again. He has just reached a consensus with Li Changge on this matter.

  Lin still didn't pay attention to the matter of "Great Wind Song", but he was not surprised to hear Zhang Yang's announcement that he would be starring in it tomorrow. After all, it will happen sooner or later, but he is still a little nervous.

Although her performance has been unanimously recognized and praised by the director, screenwriter team, and the original author, the mentality and perspective of the creator and the audience are still different, and this is the first time she has participated in film and television shooting. It is inevitable to be a little nervous when you really step into the stage that belongs to public figures.

   "Don't worry, you are already more popular than me, and you are so good-looking. Then everyone will only focus on scolding me, and no one will question you."

Zhang Yang is very confident in this point. Although due to his aura of "genius", "student master" and "good student", he is very popular among parents and the general public, but the interests of too many people have been touched by the two consecutive albums. , During this period of time, there have been many reporters and media digging up his black material. If they can't find it, they just write it directly. Coupled with the fan's praise, it will inevitably cause some people's dissatisfaction. Before the Spring Festival From the very beginning, voices on the Internet who didn't like him increased significantly.

Although Lin Yiran is as well-known as a popular actress and has filmed a publicity MV, she is an outsider after all, and does not touch the interests of others. Coupled with her background, few people are willing to offend easily, but she still maintains the same status as last year. The popularity of passers-by in summer is similar to that even if someone doesn't like her, it is because "she actually has a boyfriend, and the boyfriend is still publicity".

  Lin still understands these situations, but he rarely talks to Zhang Yang on weekdays. Seeing him say this, he said in a very domineering tone: "It's okay, if someone scolds you, I will scold you back for you."

  Like a hen guarding its cubs under the claws of an eagle.

   "Then I will register a few more trumpets, and we will scold them back together."

"Um!"

The two spoke aggressively, but they completely ignored the online war of words between "Sculpture of God" and "Great Wind Song". "Muzhi" hiding his head and revealing his tail, and not daring to disclose his identity have become the grounds for attack.

This chaotic and boring war of words did not stop until the next day, and it seemed to intensify instead. When eating at noon, Zhang Yang even saw related discussions on Fangtang's hot list, but the content here Relatively more rational, there are those who look down on "Sculpture of God", but also think that casting is too difficult.

   "Aside from other things, who will play the role of Little Dragon Girl? As long as the actors of Little Dragon Girl are not well selected, or cannot satisfy most people, no matter how good the filming is, the show will fail!"

   "No way, Zhang Daxia wrote the little dragon girl so beautifully. In real life, where do you go to find a fairy who doesn't eat fireworks?"

"Agreed! However, as far as the novel is concerned, "Great Wind Song" is still slightly inferior. Although it is the four masters, and even the one that absorbs the essence of new martial arts elements among all martial arts, Shang Gongyu still can't completely get rid of the old pattern. "Great Wind Song" is inferior to "Shooting the Condor", and weaker than "Sculpture".

   "I basically agree with Shang Gongyu's evaluation, but personally feel that although "Sculpture of God" is slightly better than "Shooting the Condor" in terms of story structure, "Shooting the Condor" is still more influential."

"Influence takes time to accumulate, and "Sculpture of the Gods" was filmed by China Television, so it must be better than "Shooting the Condor". Fallout Crowd is much more than fiction."

  …

   Zhang Yang silently left a prophecy post: "There are so many people discussing actors, does no one think that Zhang Yang is actually quite suitable to play Yang Guo?"

  In the evening, he turned on his phone, did not like it, but had three comments:

   "Brother, are you sure you are serious?"

   "Either be a fan, or drop the last word."

   "Maybe it's Zhang Yang himself?"

  (end of this chapter)
