Chapter 448 The second natal character [March 3960
Because the drama "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" was filmed by Yue Guan and Yang Xue himself, they have special feelings.
In addition, it was the first time they saw the finished product, so the more they looked, the more they became, and they saw it in the middle of the night in one breath.
When he saw the "power drama" in which Wu Zetian entered the palace, Yue Guan sighed: "Even if this drama is played for free on other TV stations, the ratings are not necessarily very high. Although the plot is realistic, it is too realistic. I guess some viewers will not like it."
Yang Xue nodded: "It is undeniable that many viewers do prefer to watch Mary Sue romance dramas."
Some viewers just like to watch simple emotional dramas.
For example, the kind of knowing and staying with each other and trusting the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince in "Game of Thrones".
That is the love that many viewers dream of.
Yue Guan and Qin Lan have gained countless fans because of that relationship.
Li Zhi and Wu Zetian in "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" are destined to not get these fans.
Because the relationship between Li Zhi and Wu Zetian is not as pure as that of the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince's concubine depicted in "Game of Thrones".
Although "Game of Thrones" is also a serious drama, the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince's concubine were deliberately beautified and processed.
But most of the scripts of "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" are described according to historical facts, so the love between Li Zhi and Wu Zetian is not perfect.
Wu Zetian took off the halo of the empress and became a chess piece under Li Zhiquan's plan.
And their feelings have also become an accessory behind the power struggle.
Such a plot will attract some fans who like to watch official history and make plans, but will lose many fans who like to watch emotional dramas.
"In terms of results, "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" will definitely not be a rival to "Game of Thrones", but in fact, the kind of drama "Game of Thrones" can be exploded anywhere, but "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" is actually more suitable for such paid channels. Those who like it will like it especially, and they will pay for such dramas."
"So "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" belongs to the kind of TV series you told me before that targeted the audience group is very obvious, rather than a TV series that kills you all?" Yang Xue asked.
Yue Guan nodded: "Yes, "Game of Thrones" can basically kill all the people, both men, women, and young and old. When I wrote the script, I specifically investigated their preferences. All the elements they like are basically included. War, power struggle, love, brotherhood... They will always find the plot they like to watch. "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" is different. This drama is too historical facts and will lose some viewers who come for love dramas and relaxed funny plots, especially the second half."
This is also impossible.
Yueguan is willing to compromise with the market.
However, "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" has no way to compromise.
Because in the later period, Li Zhi was indeed sick, and the script could not write Li Zhi as healthy and invincible.
During his lifetime, Li Zhi had always held the military and political power across the country, and was unparalleled in power. Wu Zetian was indeed a gentle wife during his lifetime, without the domineeringness of an empress.
But in this case, many viewers who are rushing to Wu Zetian may not like this drama.
There is no way to compromise on these things, otherwise the quality of the drama "The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" will not be guaranteed.
Yueguan can only make choices.
Paid channels are broadcast to allow viewers who are willing to watch the drama and accept historical facts.
A drama does not necessarily mean to conquer everyone.
As long as you can conquer a specific group, you can actually make a profit, which means that this kind of drama has a market.
"I will do two more dramas later, with the same genre as "The Peak of Tang Dynasty" and "Game of Thrones". One can basically kill all audiences, and the other can only conquer specific audiences. Many times, this kind of choice is indeed necessary to make, and it is impossible to force it."
What Yue Guan said is naturally "In the Name of People" and "The Long Night Is Not Clear".
"In the Name of People" is killing and has a high universality.
But no matter how "The Long Night Is Not Clear" is modified, those who don't like heavy themes or don't like them.
So, there is no need to change it.
To the extreme in areas that can radiate, niche types can also shine.
"You've acted in both dramas?"
"Well, challenge two completely different characters, one is the most good guy, and the other is the evil bad guy."
No matter how much grievance Qi Tongwei suffered before, he must be damned in his own way, and there is nothing wrong with the bad guys.
Yang Xue was surprised: "Most of the roles you played in before were neutral, right? Are you starting to break through now?"
"I always have to go out of my comfort zone and can't fix myself, especially I'm so young."
Once an actor's acting career is fixed, no matter how good his acting skills are, it is easily despised or even ignored.
For example, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo's peak acting skills may not be much different, but in the minds of many viewers, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo are not at the same level in terms of acting skills.
Because Xu Zheng's acting career is fixed - the midlife crisis.
Huang Bo is very plastic and can perform anything.
Naturally, Huang Bo is a senior in the eyes of many people.
By the way, this is what Wang Jing said in the "Tucao Conference", don't argue with me.
Yue Guan has not yet been recognized by the audience as an actor who is a fixed acting career and can only play a certain role, but he still has to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
When the audience really starts to discuss this issue on a large scale, it will be too late to change it.
For example, Jin Dong...
Kim Dong's acting skills are not bad, but he plays too many middle-aged elite men, and the audience is deemed to be the kind of elite style that they play.
Later, the leader had all removed the oil, but Jin Dong didn't even take the essence.
Yueguan doesn't want to do that too.
Yang Xue didn't know what Yue Guan was thinking, she just sighed: "Yue Guan, you are so talented and working so hard, how can you live if you let others live."
"Aren't you living a good life?" Yue Guan said with a smile.
"I have no competitive relationship with you." Yang Xue said: "Since you debuted, you don't even have a bad movie. Every drama is a representative work. This success rate is so scary that you are not satisfied."
"Of course I can't satisfy myself. Although I have performed many of the dramas as representative works, I have not been able to perform them to the point where they are unique and irreplaceable."
Yang Xue: "...Boss, are your requirements a little high?"
"As a person, you always have to have dreams. After "The Investiture of the Gods" was broadcast, I thought Di Xin would become the second irreplaceable role in my acting career, but Di Xin did not get such a great recognition, which disappointed me a little."
"That's because the Emperor of Heaven you created is too stolen. When the "Fengshen" trilogy is released, the character Di Xin should be able to completely stand up." Yang Xuedao.
Yue Guan nodded.
He didn't expect that because one person played two roles and his role as Emperor Tian was too good, the role of Emperor Xin was not recognized enough.
I can only continue to make efforts in the last two parts.
But it is lost and harvested.
"The Peak of the Tang Dynasty" was as expected by Yue Guan, and the results were not too explosive.
But his role as Li Zhi has received high praise from almost everyone:
Chapter completed!
