"Hey, Xiao Wang, your hair grows very fast."
Yiliang entered the box and saw Wang Hailin's hair at a glance, and joked with a smile.
"..."
Then Wang Hailin, who looked depressed, smiled and introduced to Yu Dong, "Boss, this is Director Kong Shengkong, and this is Director Gao Xixi Gao."
"Hello everyone, did you have a smooth journey here?" Yu Dong smiled and shook hands with the two of them, then pointed at Wang Hailin and said, "This is my student, Wang Hailin, who is also a contracted screenwriter of Deep Space Company."
"Hello, two teachers."
"Hello, hello." Gao Xixi smiled and said, "You should be a member of the first drama creation class of Jinyi. I have heard about your class. Your class was the winner of the short film competition held by Deep Space.
It gained a lot of limelight.”
Kong Sheng also nodded: "Well, I also know about the Deep Space Short Film Competition. I have watched the winning work "The Tuner" several times. When I heard that it was shot by a student who has not yet graduated, I was really surprised."
Yu Dong smiled and greeted, "Take a seat, let's sit down and chat."
After sitting down, Yu Dong looked at the two people in front of him with a smile. With these two people, plus Zhao Baogang, I am afraid no one will be able to compete with Deep Space Company in the field of domestic TV series in the future.
Gao Xixi's TV series, two of which impressed Yu Dong deeply, one was "Happiness is Like a Flower" and the other was "The Sky of History". Later he also remade "Three Kingdoms", but he
Yu Dong hasn’t read much of this edition, and it’s hard to make an evaluation.
As for Kong Sheng, he is almost the representative of high-quality TV series. His TV series such as "All Quiet in Peking", "Parents' Love", "Enter Guandong", "Dajiang Dahe" etc. all left a deep impression on Yu Dong.
Kong Sheng is only two years older than Gao Xixi, but when they sit next to each other, they look like they are a generation behind. Kong Sheng is a bit slovenly and has a rough appearance, while Gao Xixi is fair and fair, and looks very young.
Then Yu Dong asked a few questions about what the two of them were busy with recently. Hearing Gao Xixi say that he was currently preparing for the filming of "The Swordsman", Yu Dong asked him again: "When will this drama be filmed? It's the same time as ours."
Is there any conflict?"
"Probably not. The filming of "The Swordsman" won't start until October or November."
Yu Dong nodded, "Director Gao, you seem to be very interested in military movies."
Gao Xixi said with a smile: "It's a kind of juvenile plot. I have been full of curiosity and yearning for military life since I was a child. I'm afraid it's unrealistic to become a soldier, so I just wanted to take pictures of things related to the military. Of course.
My qualifications are still relatively low, and I don’t have enough shooting experience in this area.”
"It's very good. Although military movies seem to have been out of the public eye in recent years, I believe that they will always be mainstream."
"But from a commercial perspective, it is really difficult for current military films to attract audiences," Gao Xixi said with emotion.
Yu Dong said with a smile: "I think the inability to attract audiences should not be entirely due to the subject matter. As literary and artistic practitioners, we must also reflect on ourselves to see if there is something wrong with us."
Gao Xixi and Kong Sheng did not expect that the topic would shift to military topics as soon as they started chatting, but they were also quite interested in this topic.
Kong Sheng held his chin, tugged at his sparse beard, and said, "Actually, the domestic military-themed TV series in the past two years are not that bad, at least they can be considered to have some development. Such as "Ebb and Flow", "Peace"
"Era", the response has been quite good, much better than the situation in previous years. At least some trends can be seen, and everyone has begun to have some new perspectives when producing this type of TV series, which has produced a fundamental change."
Yu Dong nodded. Kong Sheng was right. After a period of exploration, domestic military-themed TV dramas have indeed undergone some changes. As someone who has experienced it, he knows that these few years will be a transitional period, a period when military dramas will prosper.
Transition period.
It is also because the world situation has changed greatly in recent years, and everyone pays more attention to military news, so military themes naturally have some ground for survival.
After going through this transition period, the military theme will usher in a big explosion and move towards real prosperity.
The reason why Yu Dong talked to them about the military theme was because he hoped to develop this theme as quickly as possible and build on the original history. He suddenly thought of a saying about "cultural territory".
In the process of cultural exchanges, efforts should be made to safeguard the excellent traditions of local culture and promote the healthy temperament of the national culture.
Excellent military-themed film and television dramas can do exactly this and maintain the cultural territory of the nation in the hearts and minds of the people.
Yu Dong said this to Kong Sheng and the others today because he wanted to plant seeds in their hearts and pave the way for future plans.
At this time, Gao Xixi also spoke: "Looking for innovation in the selection of angles and expression techniques, breaking away from the shackles of model dramas, as long as the spirit of the military can be extracted, this type of subject matter will naturally have good prospects. Now there is another
The problem is that military-themed shooting has limitations of the shooting team. Military dramas are different from ordinary TV dramas. If you want to pursue reality, you must shoot on the spot, which involves the military."
Yu Dong smiled and said: "Deep space has also begun to do work in this area."
Kong Sheng raised his eyes slightly. He didn't expect Deep Space to actually do this. In fact, in his opinion, Deep Space, as a private company, can completely avoid such subjects and specialize in filming TV series that the public loves to watch.
Grab the ratings instantly.
Just like the two TV series they saw today, although they haven't been filmed yet, Kong Sheng is sure that they will definitely be loved by the public and may trigger a trend.
At the same time, Kong Sheng also admired Shen Kong Company. They certainly did not do such things just to make money, but also had a higher pursuit. This also made him have a better understanding of Shen Kong Company and Yu Dong.
good impression.
Kong Sheng looked at people, never at fame. Although Yu Dong was a well-known writer and his works were well-known at home and abroad, the sum of all his works may not be as good as what Yu Dong did.
Of course Yu Dong didn't lie to them. Deep Space Company had indeed been in contact with the military.
Apart from anything else, "Party A and Party B", which is currently being filmed, will have to cooperate with the army. All the tanks used in the movie are real. Of course, the army will simply agree to help the deep space, and China Film Group will also play a role in the process.
function.
After Yu Dong chatted with the two about military themes, he returned to "Love Through Time and Space" and "Unexpected Love".
After the conversation, he felt more at ease with the two of them.
He had some doubts before, fearing that the two of them would not be able to handle this type of subject matter, but now it seems that as long as the script is well written, they will definitely be able to film the TV series authentically.
At the end of dinner, Yu Dong chatted with Kong Sheng about casting.
He recommended Xu Zheng to Kong Sheng to play the male lead. As for the female lead, he recommended several girls from the 96 show and Li Bing. Kong Sheng said it was no problem and he could go and have a look tomorrow.
…
"Hu Jing, get up soon."
In the girls' dormitory, the eldest sister Mei Ting stood beside Hu Jing's bed, pinching her waist and calling her.
Hu Jing covered her head with the quilt, "Isn't there no class this morning? What are you doing up?"
"The monitor came over just now and said that Teacher Yu summoned us to the classroom."
"Ah." Hu Jing said sadly: "It's Judge Yu again! It's not enough for him to torture us in his own class, he also takes up our rest time."
Mei Ting made a silent gesture, "You should be careful. If Teacher Yu hears you giving him a nickname, you will definitely suffer."
"Can he still have a good ear?"
Hu Jing complained unconvincedly, but her voice became quieter and quieter, and she did not dare to mention it to the judge again.
Then under Mei Ting's supervision, Hu Jing climbed out of bed like a worm, washed up and followed Mei Ting to the classroom.
When we arrived in the classroom, almost all the students in the class were already here.
Yu Dong has a certain reputation in the school, and students are afraid of him. Even if they are summoned at short notice, they don't dare to be late.
At nine o'clock sharp, Yu Dong and Kong Sheng arrived at the classroom on time.
He glanced briefly and then said, "I'm sorry, I called you here at short notice today and delayed your rest."
"Teacher Yu, don't say that, it's us who wasted your time." Zhang Changjiang said with a smile.
Hu Jing glanced at Zhang Changjiang and muttered: "Flattery."
Yu Dong smiled and introduced Kong Sheng to them, "This is Teacher Kong Sheng next to me. I came here today because there is a TV series that needs actors. I wanted to come over and see if any of my classmates are suitable."
Kong Sheng came over today not only to see the heroine, but also to choose some other roles, so Yu Dong asked all the students in the class to come over, regardless of gender.
When they heard that a director was coming to cast a role, the students were a little excited and started whispering to each other, and the classroom became lively. For students, nothing is more attractive to them than letting them act in TV.
Yu Dong patted the table, "Be quiet and let Teacher Kong say a few words to you."
When the classroom quieted down, Kong Sheng cleared his throat and came forward, "Hello everyone, I am Kong Sheng. As Teacher Yu said, I am here for the casting of a TV show. I will send everyone a message soon.
A number plate, and then everyone goes to another classroom according to the number plate. It may take a long time, so students with lower numbers can choose to move freely first, and don’t have to wait here all the time. Like Teacher Yu, I don’t want to delay everyone.
Too much time."
Kong Sheng's words were very simple. After he finished speaking, he whispered a few words to Yu Dong and then began to distribute number cards to the students.
Today is actually just the preliminary election. According to Kong Sheng's idea, I will choose a general idea first and have an impression in my mind. When I go back and make a few sets of clothes, I will audition again in a serious manner.
Casting actors in period costumes is a bit more troublesome. If you audition with modern makeup, it’s easy to look wrong.
