Chapter 887 No heroine(1/2)
As long as a person's brain is not broken, he can more or less realize his own problems. For example, if a person is too fat, he knows that he should eat less and exercise more.
Of course, realizing is a different matter if you realize it.
Knowing is easy to do but hard to do.
Zhang Yimou can also realize that his aesthetic in the plot is different from that of mainstream audiences, otherwise he would not have not made much breakthrough in the box office in recent years, but he doesn't know how to change it.
The best-achieved "Shadow" was a script that Yue Guan modified for him, and it was not his credit.
So in the new script of "The Immortal Qin Empire", Zhang Yimou made an old problem again.
Of course, this was discovered by Zhang Yimou after Yue Guan finished speaking.
He didn't think he had something wrong before, because he had theoretical support.
Yue Guan also said about this so-called theoretical support: "Director Zhang, people are always willing to listen to what they want to hear. Is this questionnaire real?"
"What's the meaning?"
"After all, niches are niches. Of course, there are masochistic enthusiasts, but it is impossible to have too many. You have encountered too many people, something is wrong." Yue Guan said: "Either the person you ordered deliberately cater to you and specially selected these opinions that suit your tastes, or the person who investigated was wrong and someone was messing with us."
"You mean that a competitor bribed the survey's audience in advance and wanted us to go astray?" Zhang Yimou was shocked: "No, right?"
"What's wrong with this? It's famous for me to listen to the audience's opinions before filming, and anyone with a little attention knows it. It's natural to make corresponding arrangements for this situation."
"Who is so angry with you?" Zhang Yimou still couldn't believe it.
Yue Guan said lightly: "It's not necessarily with me, but also against our company. Of course, it's not surprising to target me. I've been popular for so long, and I don't know how many people want to pull me down. It's normal to be targeted."
Sometimes it’s not just that you can’t offend people if you don’t want to offend people.
Even if you are kind to others, you are in that position and block others' path.
Many times you will have many inexplicable enemies. Maybe you don’t know what’s going on, but the other party just doesn’t like you.
The higher the status, the more likely it is to encounter such things.
Yueguan's status is now high enough, so the probability of encountering such a thing is also increasing.
The results of Zhang Yimou's questionnaire survey are very problematic in Yueguan.
Yue Guan took the survey form again and looked at it carefully, then shook his head: "It's really too high. The normal survey results should not be like this. If most ordinary people are willing to look at the plot of abuse, then I have to doubt whether there is something wrong with the world."
It is difficult for the world to have problems.
The only ones with problems are people.
Yue Guan and Mo Xiangwan called and told Mo Xiangwan about the matter.
Mo Xiangwan immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
It would be fine if there were only competitors targeting this matter.
But the first thing she thought of was the insider.
Only by cooperating with such things inside and outside can we cooperate so well.
The strongest fortress is always breached from the inside, and Mo Xiangwan feels that his vigilance has been too bad recently.
"Yueguan, leave this matter to me, and I will give you a result as soon as possible."
"Well, if there is an insider, investigate the situation clearly. It would be fine if you just cater to Director Zhang. If you have any contact with others, you should use legal means." Yue Guan said lightly.
"I see."
This kind of thing is not big or small.
But if there is money transaction, it is not a bad idea to call it a commercial spy.
It depends on whether there is any trick in it.
Yueguan's decisive behavior made Zhang Yimou and Liu Shishi both ashamed.
They are directors and actors, and they are quite familiar with the entertainment industry, but they have a very limited understanding of commercial competition, and they do not have a keen sense of anti-spotting.
In their opinion, Yue Guan’s reaction was a big deal.
But they didn't dare to say it either.
Yue Guan’s aura is too big now, and both of them are somewhat affected.
Fortunately, Yueguan soon realized this problem.
He has always been very modest, and Zhang Yimou is so old after all, and Liu Shishi is such a beautiful young lady. He is not strong against them, so he quickly adjusted his tone and mentality and turned back to the approachable Yue Guan.
"Director Zhang, let Mr. Mo investigate this matter, don't worry. The preparations for "Immortal Qin Empire" are very complicated, and you still have to keep an eye on it."
Zhang Yimou nodded: "It's okay for me to keep an eye on it, but Yue Guan, please tell me the truth. When are you going to film "Xianqin"?"
"At least I have to wait until the release of "The Gods 3" is over. Now I can't get out of here."
"That should be after the end of August." Zhang Yimou didn't think it was late. On the contrary, he felt that the time was too tight: "I'm afraid that I can't even write the script then. Yue Guan, you have to set a tone for the script, otherwise the screenwriter team wouldn't know how to write it."
"The tone is very simple, earth-shaking, immortal Qin is invincible, so expand the content according to this tone." Yue Guan said.
Zhang Yimou: "...it's that simple?"
"It was not complicated at first. I have already given the screenwriter team the big background setting and framework tone. Just write this tone in the big framework. If you can't do this, they are not worthy of getting that much money." Yue Guan said.
What he raised at a high salary was not waste.
Zhang Yimou said: "You gave the background setting and framework tone, but it was still too general. You didn't even decide the heroine."
"I have been thinking about it for a long time without a suitable heroine." Yue Guan sighed: "In history, there were no well-known female characters in this era. If it was original, the audience would not have a sense of immersion. There was really no suitable character to be the heroine."
"Where is Zhao Ji?"
"The whole country knows the little things that Zhao Ji and Lao Ai are so damn about it. She is a stain on Xian Qin. It's too late to delete them directly. How could she be the heroine?"
"There must be a queen in Qin Shihuang's history, and Fusu and Hu Hai also have mothers."
"But history has no records. We still have to write it out. Director Zhang, is it necessary to do this?"
Zhang Yimou understood what Yue Guan meant, and he was shocked: "Don't you want to design a heroine?"
Yue Guan did not deny: "Since there is no suitable one, it's better not to do it. I'll force one to write it, which will only affect the quality of the film in the end."
Zhang Yimou: “…”
To be honest, he is good at filming actresses than male actors, and he is ready to show off his skills.
As a result, Yue Guan suddenly said he didn't want the heroine anymore.
Zhang Yimou felt that he was simply a hero who was useless.
And this behavior is too advanced.
"Is it really appropriate to have no heroine?"
Yue Guan's words left Zhang Yimou speechless: "Director Zhang, the heroine of "Shadow" I adapted from, but it was the movie with the highest box office in your movie."
