Although history is just a nail, it is very solid and permeates the plot everywhere.
It is true that the script is based on Shen Zui's memoir "Inside the Military System", but that is due to the original work and has nothing to do with this version of Liu Qingshan.
This drama basically reflects the panoramic view of the military reunification, monitoring, arrests, searches, interrogations, corruption eradication, post-war takeover, the impact of the internal fighting between the military reunification factions on lower-level institutions, and the relationship with the military. relationships in all aspects.
Many details have been truly restored. In the interlocking and thunderous lines, almost every short paragraph has a historical wedge.
Most of them appear in the process of dialogue, such as "Kang Ze and Chiang Ching-kuo fought each other", "Did Li Shiqun send you a radio station when he was alive?", "Mellos told me", "Your old classmate Yu Lexing (the head teacher of the first training course in Qingpu under the military unification)" and so on.
There are countless such interludes. Even when Yu Zecheng provided the list of spies to the Eighth Route Army Office, the names of each character were very contemporary.
Liu Qingshan specifically mentioned this point not without purpose, but to remind everyone to film it as a historical drama. We must respect history and revere history in order to achieve the same goal as that time. The atmosphere effect is infinitely consistent with the atmosphere of the times.
The original version was born out of a TV series. Regarding the protagonist's character in the play, Cuiping's character was the most adjusted and modified.
She is no longer a vulgar, dry-smoking rural shrew with yellow teeth. With such an image, the audience will not sympathize with her, nor will they allow her to fall in love with the gentle and capable Yu Zecheng.
So Cuiping became the comedian in the play. Some of her vulgarity and ignorance turned into a kind of cuteness. She was just stingy, straightforward, carefree, and had a firm revolutionary will.
Of course, she still has a feminine side, and she also likes to have love, although she doesn't know what love is.
Therefore, Yu Zecheng and Cuiping were given more humanity by the screenwriter.
Under the overall situation and revolutionary tasks, they are just ordinary people.
There will also be worries, quarrels, little emotions, little thoughts, and the little tricks the two interact with add a lot of fun and down-to-earth elements to the whole story.
Only when the characters in the story are more like the people around us will we have a sense of involvement.
You don’t need to imagine that era, you only need to imagine the neighbors around you. An uneducated peasant woman and a teacher became a couple. They stumbled, quarreled, and sometimes fell in love at an inappropriate time. They were all so real and touching. .
Liu Qingshan took these as themes in the following time. He knew that Yu Zecheng and Cuiping were the biggest attractions in the whole drama. After solving these two characters, the version he shot, It is at least possible to maintain the quality of the original work.
This is his first time directing a TV series, which is why he takes so much trouble to talk about it.
In terms of narrative length, movies are more like short stories, making it easier to form a concise and impactful event narrative.
TV dramas, on the other hand, are long-form and require a specific and delicate character narrative.
For example, for the 30-episode "Latent", the 30 episodes must first be divided into a 10-10-10 macro structure, and each 10-episode may be subdivided into several episode paragraphs.
These paragraphs form the basic narrative rhythm, and are finally subdivided into each episode to form the basic narrative of this episode.
Therefore, the difference is quite big. For Liu Qingshan, the difficulty is not ordinary. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is as difficult as interlacing lines like mountains.
After the meeting, we will take the flight to Hengdian that night.
Jin Xishan wanted to go with him. Anyway, she was memorizing the script of the next drama at home alone. It didn't matter if she followed. The most important thing was that she could help Liu Qingshan take care of the two Tibetan lions.
The largest investor in "Latent" is still China Film Group, and this is unlikely to change in at least the past two years.
This is not because Liu Qingshan does not dare to offend the other party, but because of the huge Huaying Wings
Next, it can save him a lot of troubles that you will encounter when you become more and more popular.
His biggest wish at present is not to make money, but to save time more rationally and shorten the shooting cycle of each project as much as possible.
What kind of existence is China Film? It is the only company in the mainland that has the right to import films, and it is the film company with the largest output in the three regions of China.
And that Han Shanping is the person who is in charge of the life of the entertainment industry. He is the main melody on the left and the commercial film on the right. Only with him as the center can the story of the entire mainland film and television industry be strung together. .
There is also an entire escort group following Liu Qingshan on this trip. The Liu family class will not follow them for the time being. They are currently undergoing intensive training at the Guowu Hall martial arts hall, and they will be put to great use soon.
That night at the airport, I saw Mr. Han as expected. This person will definitely appear at the opening ceremony of "Insidious", and this drama is receiving serious attention from many aspects.
This kind of attention does not refer to those in the same industry, but to big bosses in the cultural and military departments.
Because Liu Qingshan is the director of a TV series for the first time and is the main theme of a TV series, every time this person makes a big move, it will often affect the market trend of the mainland market, so they have to pay special attention to it.
Moreover, the subject matter this time is a spy drama, which seems to be consistent with the style of the movie he just completed. The meaning of it is actually very obvious.
But how to produce works that are different from the past is obviously the core issue they are concerned about. If this drama can have a pioneering performance, it will echo with several of his other film and television dramas that are currently being filmed. new market trends.
These projects are almost without exception the main theme. How the market reacts in the future will have an immeasurable impact on the entire mainland's business landscape and even social atmosphere.
Therefore, they have to pay attention to it. Without a forward-looking and overall perspective to control the overall situation, it will be difficult for the relevant departments to implement the work better.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the group had arrived at the hotel they had booked in advance.
Liu Qingshan immediately invited the third master to the Wangjia BBQ City near the film and television city.
This will also be the temporary residence of Jin Xishan and some of his entourage. Of course, the main reason is the grassland in the yard, which is more suitable for the two Tibetan lions to have fun from time to time.
Since Wang Qiang and his wife had received the news early, they had already cleared the area on the first floor.
It was converted from a large conference room in the past. When I left last time, there were only a few rooms separated.
Now it has been well-organized. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small villa in the building that is independent of the entire original office building.
Of course, Liu Qingshan will pay the rent in full, so it is considered as a whole contract and will not be rented out to others.
It was an upper and lower floor in a corner of the office building. The decoration inside was not like a hotel, but more like a real house-style building.
There are as many as ten bedrooms of varying sizes, but they are enough to accommodate twenty or thirty guests.
After seeing this, Mr. Han couldn't help complaining: "When did you get such a good place? I want to live here!"
Due to the nature of his work, he comes to Hengdian countless times every year, which may take two or three months in total.
People who often travel for business like this must be tired of staying in hotels every time.
Liu Qingshan invited him here with the intention of wooing him, so he smiled and said to Wang Qiang: "Boss Wang, from now on, I will reserve a room here for the third master. I will let you know after he has chosen it, and then I will tell you if you have any needs." You put things in order!"
Mr. Han was not polite: "Thank you then. But sometimes I don't come alone, but don't worry, I will never bring more people. At most, there will be three or two of me!"
This time it was Wang Qiang who replied: "It doesn't matter if you have a few more, there are guest rooms here anyway!"
Liu Qingshan nodded: "Third Master, there is a barbecue outside. Do you think we should eat here or go outside?"
"Go outside! I guess we'll know later.
When you come to Hengdian, there will be many people here in the future. Before they react, let’s go there early to experience it! "
The Wang twin sisters were hiding at the door and peeking. They liked Jin Xishan the most. Although they had met before, there were other guests at the scene. The two girls were still very polite.
Jin Xishan turned around and waved to them: "Da Ya, Er Ya, let these gentlemen go first, and you can help me walk the dog!"
The lawn at the base of the east wall outside has long been designed as a small garden-style leisure area, and it is also not open to the public. There is no shortage of small bridges and running water.
When you come to Barbeque City, this trust will inevitably be discovered by diners. Nowadays, this place is very famous. There are many diners every day. It is said that people from nearby Jinhua, Yiwu and even Wenzhou drive here to eat barbecue. .
However, since actors from the film and television city will occasionally appear here, the guests here are not as curious about celebrities as the people outside.
Therefore, although many people were greeting Liu Qingshan, no one came forward to bother him.
Mr. Han suggested eating out because he really liked the down-to-earth environment.
In addition, although he is famous, few ordinary people know about him, so he has no sense of restraint when facing the public.
People around Liu Qingshan gathered in small groups to fill the small tables, especially those from Hongmen. They were more curious about sitting on a horse, making skewers and drinking draft beer than the temptation of delicious food.
Jin Xishan didn't follow him, because he didn't dare to bring the Tibetan lions to such an occasion, because the two guys were really too big, especially Senger, who was as big as a calf, and he was afraid that it would attract the attention of others. The psychological resistance of guests.
When he arrived at the filming location the next day, he also met other crew members who had arrived in advance. Liu Hua took him around the studio that the crew had rented in advance.
Then when he met with the entire crew, he saw Sheng Xiang, the head of the Secrecy Bureau who "fighted side by side" with Sun Honglei in the play.
