Chapter 421 The Guardian of GDP and Banzi Shengtian(1/2)
I have to say that Li’s father’s proposal really opened up a new idea for Yue Guan.
He had his preconceived ideas before, but his ideas were always limited.
Hou Liangping is really difficult to change. He is just a tool person, no matter how he changes, he is still a tool person.
His character is destined to be as full as Jiang Yang.
However, Hou Liangping's character is difficult to change, but the ranking is easy to change. To be precise, the role is easy to delete.
Who stipulates that Hou Liangping must be the male lead in "In the Name of the People"?
Later, after "In the Name of People" became popular, the screenwriter said in an interview that if you know that Wu Gang could play Secretary Dakang so well, he wrote Li Dakang as the protagonist.
The screenwriter has no chance.
There is still Yueguan.
Compared to Hou Liangping, Li Dakang has a much more plump personality.
A politically correct image with shortcomings but obvious advantages can satisfy both the superiors and the audience.
"Uncle Li, your suggestion really opened the door to a new world for me." Yue Guan told the truth.
When Li's father heard Yue Guan say this, he was overjoyed.
Originally, he and the superiors were worried that Yue Guan would be unhappy.
Literary and artistic workers don’t like others to interfere in their creative freedom. Yue Guan is already a partner, so they don’t want Yue Guan to have a negative confrontation with them.
I didn't expect Yue Guan to be so easy to talk to.
Li’s father had a better impression of Yueguan.
Just in case, Li's father still asked cautiously: "Yue Guan, aren't you talking slander? We are all very satisfied with your cooperation. If you really don't want to change it, then your opinion will be based on it. After all, you are an expert in this regard."
"No, I'm telling the truth. With my relationship with Sister Ruotong, I'm a family with Uncle Li. If I talk to the family, why do I have any tricks?" Yue Guan shook his head and said, "A person's wisdom is always limited. My thinking was imprisoned before. Uncle Li's proposal has indeed made me find a new perspective. I have to say that the leader's vision is a bit powerful."
Much better than the leaders in charge of these in the previous life.
In the last life, "In the Name of People" became popular and became a phenomenal viewership. Then, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Bright Sword", a TV series that has been dominating the screen for many years, was tacitly abandoned by all TV stations. It has never been played on the second round of the TV station. Only video websites can watch it.
It is said that after "In the Name of People" became popular, the drama is a bit of a high-end and black meaning. The protagonist Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiaoai are not down-to-earth. The justice side seems to be all from the second generation, and the nepotism is wide.
Officials who are truly grassroots peasant, Zhao Dehan and Qi Tongwei, have all become corrupt and degenerate. Although this may be the case in reality, it is really ironic.
A group of officials and second generations were honest and upright, and the son of a farmer who changed his destiny through hard study fell to reality.
Too real.
So, it's too dark.
The leaders of this world can see this problem at a glance and are of high quality.
And it can also give effective advice on traveling, and it is even more advanced.
Compared with the national population, the majority of ordinary people are of course born in the vast majority, and the second generation is less than 5%.
Therefore, the audience will empathize with Qi Tongwei. Even if Qi Tongwei is unforgivable and deserves death, the audience will feel sorry for him.
At that time, Qi Tongwei was ranked first in the three major political and legal masters of Handong University. He was once passionate and fearless of life and death. He was a hero who stood up to fight against drugs.
Later reality taught him a truth: a hero is just a tool in the face of power.
He is just a hero and has no power.
Therefore, it is useless for him to make contributions.
So, he fell to his knees before power.
Hou Liangping and Chen Hai are also heroes, but they both have power protection from higher-level officials. They don’t need to bow to power, they just need to be a hero.
Therefore, Hou Liang is bright and bright, and his character is not very good than Qi Tongwei, but the audience just can't empathize with it.
Identity setting is really important.
He will decide who the audience will substitute.
Yue Guan never solved the problem of how to get the audience to fall into Hou Liangping's perspective, so he rejected the role of Hou Liangping.
However, Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang are both particularly convenient for the audience to enter and empathize.
Especially Qi Tongwei.
The role of Li Dakang is more important than that of Mr. Wu Gang, who played a role with a set of 80 points to 99 points.
The role of Qi Tongwei is really well set, and the lines are written in a wonderful way. The role is set at 90 points. It is basically impossible to find an excellent actor to play it.
As for Hou Liangping, the character setting is 60 points dead.
If you find a national first-class actor, you will be able to endure it to 80 points.
I really can't blame Lu Yi for his poor acting. Lu Yi was so tired that he didn't act well, but he wasn't particularly bad.
"Yueguan, since you agree with this suggestion, do you have any ideas?" Li's father also felt energetic.
When they discussed internally, they actually prefer "The Long Night Is Not Clear", but they all understand that if they really shoot it, the more popular one must be "In the Name of the People".
So they value the drama "In the Name of People".
And Yueguan’s opinions are very important to them.
Yue Guan thought about it and gave his own opinion: "Just as you said, weaken Hou Liangping's role, throw the protagonist's role to Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei, and dig deeper into their stories. Not only the two of them, but characters like Gao Yuliang and Gao Xiaoqin can actually be digged deeper."
They are all very representative characters.
But Li's father was still more concerned about Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei.
The result of their internal discussion is that if this script is filmed, the most outstanding one should be Qi Tongwei, followed by Li Dakang.
The leadership level in this world is really something. If Yue Guan hadn't known that Teacher Wu Gang was cheating, Secretary Dakang's character would not be enough to support him to become popular.
The above judgment is theoretically correct.
"The protagonist, do you want to decide whether Qi Tongwei or Li Dakang? Yue Guan, I personally suggest Qi Tongwei. Qi Tongwei's storyline is very complete. A poor student changed his destiny through hard study. As a result, because he was attracted by the daughter of a senior political and legal official, he separated him and his girlfriend and assigned him a promising college student to the valley, calling him a test of love for Qi Tongwei. Later, Qi Tongwei killed the enemy and became a drug-killing hero, but was still suppressed. In addition, his girlfriend broke up with him, so he accepted his fate and was with that daughter. As long as Qi Tongwei's character is slightly changed, he can make him an inspirational image. Then arranging a noble person for Qi Tongwei, a protagonist who meets mainstream values will be vividly on the paper."
Li’s father’s view is also their own internal discussion.
However, Yue Guan thought about it and refused the proposal: "Uncle Li and Qi Tongwei would not have the charm described in the script, nor would it empathize with the audience. Let's set the two protagonists, one positive and the other negative, Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei would be against it. Through comparison, give the audience a real answer."
Yue Guan himself is not willing to whitewash the villain.
Because if you say a thousand words, the villain is the villain and has done something that cannot be forgiven.
Is Qi Tongwei pitiful? Poor.
But should he die?
After he chose to join forces, it means that he has merged into darkness, and it is even darker than those who were originally in darkness.
Killing people to silence, corruption, corruption and bribery... He has done everything he should do, so what else can be whitewashed?
Qi Tongwei is not his relative.
And what Yue Guan said was also what he said in his heart.
When Qi Tongwei was in such a difficult situation, if you ask the audience to choose, you will probably kneel down.
Qi Tongwei knelt down and bowed to power. This choice is more in line with human nature and allows the audience to substitute.
If Qi Tongwei is really changed to a character who is righteous and willing to die, the character Qi Tongwei will lose a lot of charm and may not be able to move the audience.
Having a river is enough, there is no need to create another river-like Qi Tongwei.
Li's father was convinced by Yueguan.
"What you said makes sense, and the sense of substitution is a problem. Qi Tongwei encountered a lot of injustice back then, and it is difficult to ask him, a young man, to be able to straighten his back."
"The most important thing is that Qi Tongwei is the only one, and he doesn't even have a support around him. He can only rely on himself. A rural child who grew up eating a hundred families of food, and a rural child who even paid for college was raised by the whole village. If he didn't make a name for himself, he wouldn't accept it." Yue Guan shook his head and said, "I don't sympathize with Qi Tongwei, but I don't despise him either. To be honest, Hou Liangping is not qualified to despise him. He has never experienced what Qi Tongwei has experienced, so he can just try Qi Tongwei legally. From his own perspective, he may not necessarily have Qi Tongweiqiang."
In the original version of "In the Name of People", the unfair experiences Qi Tongwei suffered in the eyes of Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiaoai, were just a little willful power, but Qi Tongwei did not withstand the test. They looked extremely despised by Qi Tongwei and said it was so calm.
This conversation completely destroyed the audience relationship between the two.
The little willfulness of power assigned a promising student union president of that era, which was so valuable that he could not find a future, into a small valley, allowing him to separate himself from his girlfriend Lao Yan, and making him risk his life to earn meritorious service and receive awards a joke.
In Hou Liangping and Zhong Xiaoai's eyes, this is just a little willfulness of power...
What about willfulness?
Instead of blaming the culprit, he despised Qi Tongwei for not withstanding the test.
Typically, why not eat minced meat.
If the couple in the whole play had not been full of this superiority of not eating meat, they would not have attracted so many viewers.
There is an old saying that you don’t know what I’ve experienced.
The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected, so it is difficult to count on a group of two people. The pressure a poor college student is under.
Many times, we cannot blame the audience for their unfair views, because for ordinary people, fairness has become an increasingly scarce luxury. Therefore, audiences are more willing to substitute for villains who have experienced unfair things.
"Qi Tongwei deserves to die, because later he became the kind of person he hated the most at the time, and his hands were covered with other people's blood. However, comparing Hou Liangping as a means of failure, this is not the original intention of the above." said Li's father.
Yueguan nodded.
