Exploring the Entertainment Circle [Ancient and Modern]

The novice director Tao Qingfeng, besides taking the time to read some technical guidance books on the director's shooting machine, is more likely to discuss the story of "Returning East to West" with Xia Xinghen.

Having personally witnessed the vortex of the struggle between the Screenwriters Association and the young directors, although Tao Qingfeng is not very mature technically, he understands a truth: to really make a drama well, one must not act recklessly according to one's own selfishness.We must leave our energy for the production itself, and communicate more with the cast and crew to achieve the effect of "sincerity" and "respect" for the audience in the story.

""Return from East to West" is a good story, but if you want to catch today's audience, you must work harder." This is the improvement opinion discussed by Tao Qingfeng and Xia Xinghen.Tao Qingfeng felt stinging from the script of "Returning East to West Crossing" in the past. Those ideological indoctrinations were like forcefully dragging people in front of a political commissar and saying "I'll talk to you" very seriously.The content is high-level, but the general audience, either don't know what's going on, or "say goodbye and change channels".

"Dilgate the ideology, strengthen the charisma of the characters, and deeply weave the clues of the story." Xia Xinghen told Tao Qingfeng, "I revised the script according to this idea, you understand."

Tao Qingfeng's comprehension ability is amazing: "Understood, it should be like this."

TV dramas are not news broadcasts or history textbooks.

Tao Qingfeng said: "Listen to me, do you understand correctly: the reason for sacrificing for ideology is not wrong in politics. But it lacks emotional support for the audience. Without changing this will, you increase For example, Yun Xianglei's classmate was innocently involved in the incident in Chapter 1, for example, Yun Xianglei saved himself from danger by relying on resourcefulness in the foreigner's mansion...all of which strengthen the "rationality" emotionally. The once unattainable banner has become It's within reach."

Xia Xinghen nodded approvingly: "See the change? Have you memorized the script again? Very good." Xia Xinghen continued: "The audience's purpose of watching TV is always to be 'good-looking'. This kind of 'good-looking' comes from the spirit A sense of gain and satisfaction. No matter what form of expression...you must respect this law. This is the core element of commercial creation. As long as the TV series is filmed and people can watch it, it cannot be violated."

Tao Qingfeng has benefited a lot. After all, Xia Xinghen has been in this industry for a long time and has won so many awards. His grasp of this industry is not something that Tao Qingfeng can match overnight.The more exchanges the better.

Moreover, Tao Qingfeng didn't direct Xia Xinghen's play, the script was written by the other party, and the other party wanted to take such a path that was not controlled by the director, so he invested in it himself.It is better to rely on oneself to enter the play. It is estimated that Xia Xinghen has more directing methods than Tao Qingfeng, who has never eaten pork and seen pigs running.

So Tao Qingfeng insisted that he was only counted as "half" director, and that he was also called an executive.

This made the other actors who joined the group very strange.Some old actors rely on their rich experience in acting, and they also want to be like Xia Xinghen without having to be directed.But they soon understood the necessity of Tao Qingfeng.

Not to mention Tao Qingfeng, but also to play the second male number Yu Song.It’s just that Tao Qingfeng is very familiar with everyone’s every scene, not only familiar with the lines, props, and sets, but more importantly, the “big picture view” that a single actor cannot have: Tao Qingfeng knows that every scene is important in the whole The position, function and meaning in this TV series; clearly understand the growth and changes of each character and the effect that should be presented in that scene.

Tao Qingfeng understands "Returning East to West" better than most actors, understands the true connotation of this film, and where it really wants to go.As if Tao Qingfeng already had a complete "Return to West" in his chest, he copied every detail according to the diagram.Every expression and every movement told to the actors is exquisite.

And those experienced actors also found that Tao Qingfeng has good generalization and expression skills, and can explain clearly the intention of directing the play with a few simple sentences.Although he is not very old and has not much experience, he still makes people feel like a spring breeze and easy to accept when operating.Even if there are some plots that the actors understand differently from the director, Tao Qingfeng has always been very democratic, he will listen to reasonable opinions, or persuade the actors' stubborn ideas.

The most interesting thing was the match between Xia Xinghen and Tao Qingfeng.

The camera adjusts the camera position and starts to record. The two "directors and actors" male lead and male second usually go over each other according to their respective understandings, and then discuss the details with the camera, and quickly reach an agreement before re-acting.The tacit understanding is very high, which actually comes from the fact that they have done a lot of homework and are very familiar with this drama.

Xia Xinghen used to suffer from being restricted by directors, and felt that it was a pleasure to start filming with a colleague like Tao Qingfeng who is skilled, transparent, and dedicated.

In the script, Yun Xianglei and Yu Song, by accident, one took the politically tortuous road of "returning to the east", and the other took the road of "going west" to attract investment and save the country. They always misunderstood each other as bad guys, and never saw each other. From being pleasing to the eye to being sympathetic to each other, and finally burying the hatchet in the Kremlin, he became a good brother of the successor of communism and worked hard together for the construction of a new China.

Outside of the script, Tao Qingfeng and Xia Xinghen were also fighting side by side.When I get busy, I often can't eat a few bites of dinner, and I can't sleep for a few hours.Thanks to the young people who survived.

Ceramics people have been half happy and half worried since they knew that Tao Qingfeng would retake "Returning East to West Crossing".Xia Xinghen's film king returned and continued to choose Tao Qingfeng to cooperate, which was a recognition of Tao Qingfeng's ability.But what if the actor went crazy again?

And this restart of "Return to the West" is actually an adaptation of the script by Emperor Xia, with Tao Qingfeng as the executive director.Although the ceramics are immersed in the halo of Tao Qingfeng's academic master, they also feel that he is a bit immature to be the director of such a big theme work.

There are also many ceramics who unconditionally believe that Tao Qingfeng has done a good job, and sincerely hope that there will be another masterpiece like "Dongjun and Witch".

Plus, Ceramic Girls has other, mixed things going on.

The commercial film "Jump, Smile" was filmed last Christmas. After more than seven months of preparation, it will be released in major theaters soon.This is Tao Qingfeng's first film work as the leading actor.Tao Qingfeng was responsible for the actual box office performance.Fortunately, director Gong Hua has a strong appeal, and the story preview is also very attractive.It looks funny and relaxed, and the special effects don't suck.Ceramics, hopefully, are worth a look as far as popcorn chips go.

The attack point of the sunspots this time is: "Tsk tsk, look at that dumb-headed idiot in the trailer, he can't even recognize a chamber pot. Ugly refusal."

Immediately, ceramics said: "Doesn't this mean that he can act well? The son of the coal boss is just so stupid."

Moreover, in the trailer, Tao Qingfeng's various poses and expressions in funny poses were not known whether they were black or fan, and P became a variety of emoticon packs, which made a wave of "hahaha" presence on the Internet.Ceramics and passers-by said: Gong Hua's films are all comedy.For a laugh, it's worth checking out then.

July is the domestic film protection month, and there are four films released in the same period. The screening rate of "Let's Jump, Smile" is a bit cruel. After all, Tao Qingfeng's qualifications are still young. Although it is a small hit, the theater cannot confirm whether his fans will come to the theater to support his starring movie.

What's more, due to the deepening reform of government agencies this year, a new General Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television was established, which coincides with the domestic film July.Three fires were established in the new department.They first made a surprise inspection of a gangster movie that was released in July, and found that the editing of the bloody scenes in it was substandard, and ordered it to be removed from the shelves.This move frightened various distribution agencies, and they withdrew their films one after another, so as not to hit the muzzle of surprise inspections.After all, new officials are appointed to establish their prestige, and even if there are no problems in many cases, they will "check" you for problems.

Naturally, the distribution company of "Let's Jump and Smile" starring Tao Qingfeng was unwilling to risk his life, and followed the trend to postpone the schedule.

On the surface, I definitely can’t tell everyone that the reason is to avoid surprise censorship, so I made up an excuse that I need more time to polish the editing and make the film better.

However, this reason will appear to be very blunt and unreliable if it is presented after the file is fixed.

Now, the ceramics are depressed, and the Tao Hei people start to dance wildly again. It is plausible to say that Tao Qingfeng has no appeal so the theaters do not want to line up more films, and that the distributors have no confidence and postpone the schedule.For a moment Tao Hei raised his eyebrows, and with the attitude of "turning over the serf and singing", he jumped up again.

The ceramic girls somewhat guessed that it was because of the censorship, but they didn't have a stone hammer, so they felt uneasy and hoped that Tao Qingfeng's movie would be released as soon as possible.

However, Tao Qingfeng himself is still not affected by the fan circle, and concentrates on filming "Return from East to West".

When "Returning East to West" was filmed in mid-July, Yan Tan finished correcting the paper again and took the summer vacation. When he came to visit Tao Qingfeng's class, he was taken aback by Tao Qingfeng: "Baby, you are already thin enough, why are you so thin?" A circle?" Yan Tan wrapped his forearm around his waist and gestured, "I can almost wrap your waist with one hand."

Yan Dan has called Tao Qingfeng all kinds of weird names in bed this year, and "baby" is already one of the more normal people among them.

Because he was behind the others, Tao Qingfeng didn't blush for the title. He was still holding the script to be filmed tomorrow, and he had memorized it fluently. He was just reviewing and figuring it out. Yan Tan said: "Then shouldn't you be happier? You can use the other hand to do something else."

Yan Dan laughed and felt that Tao Qingfeng, who was so young at first that he would blush when kissed by him, can now say such flirtatious words without shame or impetuosity.This is all my own credit, and I have a special sense of accomplishment.Yan Tan held Tao Qingfeng's hand, gently opened the script, clasped five fingers one by one, moved them to his lips and kissed, and said: "This 'sliced ​​onion' should be worn with a ring. up."

Tao Qingfeng's heart skipped a beat, and he gradually understood the meaning of same-sex marriage and ring exchange in foreign countries. He was moved and was about to say something. Yan Tan had already broken his head, blocked his mouth, and hugged him tightly with one hand. Waist, the other hand started to do something else with ease.

"Easy... Be gentle..." When Tao Qingfeng was pushed down on the bed, he did not forget to kiss Yan Yan's cheek and neck, as if begging Yan Yan so flatteringly that the other party would really be gentle.

In the past, Yan Tan always endured a lot of hard work and didn't enjoy doing it, but later he realized that it was all a routine.

"You can bear it." Yan Tan clasped his wrist and raised it above his head, buried his head in his chest and nibbled and licked slowly, "...you still like it very much."

Tao Qingfeng was so moved that she gasped softly, "Wait...it's too fast this time..."

"Wait?" Yan Tan also invented his own way of selling misery, looking at Tao Qingfeng with watery eyes, "How many years have I been waiting."

Sure enough, Tao Qingfeng's heart and body also softened, and he even hugged Yan Tan and let him show his power.

"I'll order a ring tomorrow..." Yan Tan was satisfied this time, and said in a daze before hugging Tao Qingfeng tightly and falling asleep.

The place where Yan Dan ordered the ring was from a foreign luxury counter in the city center.The reason for choosing this one is not only because their family is a VIP user of this counter (the mother of the Yan family buys new jewelry here every year).It's because Yan Tan prefers this company's concept of making wedding diamond rings:

The wedding ring of this brand needs to be booked with a passport or ID card, which can only be ordered once in a lifetime, which represents loyalty.

There is also a name engraved on the wedding ring, Yan Tan is not strict in aesthetics, the selection criteria are nothing more than which diamond is bigger, the style is more generous and the better.

However, he specifically explained to the sales manager: When the designer was asked to order this style, both rings were made into men's styles.

The sales manager's eyelids twitched, and he hesitated to speak.He knew Yan Tan's mother well. After all, that big client had to take care of their business so many times a year, but he looked at Yan Tan's determination to order and pay without hesitation.They dare not say more, it is their duty to keep confidentiality for customers.

So even when the Yan family's mother came to the counter to buy jewelry again, the customer manager did not dare to reveal to her: "I dare not say that your son ordered two men's wedding rings with us and polished them in the workshop next door."

The sales manager felt bitter: young people nowadays.

After the wedding ring was made, the sales manager called Yan Tan to ask him to pick it up.

The mobile phone number that Yan Tan left for him was his own mobile phone when he was at work.Haven't used it much since the summer break.When Yan Tan went home for dinner two days ago, he accidentally left it in the big villa. He didn't find it for a long time after he went back, and planned to get it the next day.

But that same night, the sales manager called the cell phone.The mother of Yan's family who found her son's left phone, looked at the "X counter sales manager" on the caller ID, and remembered that she knew this person well, so she connected the phone and wanted to hear what he wanted to do with Yan Tan, whether he was selling new products or not. Jinan watches and the like, if the new one is good, I will buy one for my son...

Yan's mother didn't speak after pressing the call button. The sales manager on the opposite side thought it was Yan Yan who connected, and said in a perfect customer service voice: "Mr. Yan, your custom-made wedding ring is ready..."

A clear female voice came from the microphone, which almost made the sales manager's heart jump out of his throat in fright, and he couldn't hold the microphone steadily for a while:

"—Say it again? My son, what did you order at your place?"
