Su Tiecheng's words have a source. Since the first round of screenings has long been snatched up by National Television, and Liu Qingshan has no intention of borrowing the previous dramas to obtain greater profits, the copyright payment from National Television is very low. of.
But the problem is that regarding the broadcast rights for the second round, Liu Qingshan held a large-scale internal trial broadcast for this purpose. Although it was not sold on the spot, the enthusiasm of various TV stations was very high.
The fact that it was not sold on the spot was not because the price was not ideal, but because Liu Qingshan did not set up this link. He is not stupid. Waiting for the first round of broadcasts will generate a nationwide craze for watching the drama, and then the true market value will be fully reflected.
Therefore, for this kind of second-round broadcast rights that have not yet been auctioned, some local TV stations in the industry have already offered a price higher than the first-round broadcast, but Liu Qingshan still did not relent.
It can be seen that the second and third rounds in the future will be the key to truly recovering costs and making profits. This is why Cycad City, who is familiar with all this, has such a wry smile.
The host who also understood this situation laughed and said: "There is no way. Facing a huge investment of hundreds of millions and filming a military-themed drama, I would not dare to make such a big determination! Mr. Liu, how did you do it?" Accurately judge that this drama will attract such great attention from the market?" Liu Qingshan patiently explained: "In traditional anti-war dramas, the heroes often have the characteristics of being brave, dedicated, humble and considerate, and perfect. He has almost no shortcomings. When ordinary people see him, they only worship him and look up to him. As for his allies, they are often scumbag teammates with ulterior motives. They can only calculate and play tricks, but not really fight against Japan."
"As for the enemy troops, most of them are vulnerable, funny, and ridiculous. They hold command knives in their hands and call them Baga or Flower Girl. When attacked by our troops, they quickly fled and collapsed thousands of miles away. "
"And this drama breaks the previous stereotyped character image, which will make the audience's eyes shine. Especially Li Yunlong is not a traditional anti-Japanese hero at all. He swears, loves to take advantage, and his personal qualities are not high, and he is also special Troublemaker."
"But this was a common phenomenon in the army at that time, because most of the heroes were from farmers, and it was a historical reality that they did not have a high level of education!"
"Besides, all the actors participating this time have superb acting skills, especially Li Yunlong, played by Li Youbin, who is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The other characters around him are also very successful. This is the reason for my confidence!" Chen Baoguo! He added: "This drama does not vilify or exaggerate any party, which is particularly valuable. Moreover, this narrative method has been unanimously approved by many veterans who passed through that era. This is enough to show that Mr. Liu The screenwriter is indeed very down-to-earth!" Fu Jun nodded in agreement: "The word down-to-earth actually sums up everything. The characters in the play are all flesh and blood, unlike today's bad anti-Japanese masterpieces and old movies. God-conscious Predator warriors, they have feelings and distinct personalities, and they say what they should say and what tone they should have in the context of that era." Several people spoke one after another, winning waves of laughter from the audience. Cheers.
This is because before the formal interview, a wonderful behind-the-scenes clip was played on the big screen in the studio.
The host obviously does not want the atmosphere of his show to always be enveloped in harmony. After the atmosphere at the scene calmed down a bit, he asked another question with a smirk: "Is this show so perfect? Is there anything that will lead to widespread complaints after it is broadcast?" The experienced Chen Baoguo was delighted, Geng Cheng, who plays Wei Dayong, said: "It's true. He plays the monk Wei Dayong in the play, Li Yunlong's personal guard. This character, like Guan Yu, always looks down on people weaker than himself and only looks up to people stronger than him." , so it is very easy to be plotted by villains. In the end, he experienced all the storms, but unexpectedly died in the hands of a bandit from Heiyun Village." Geng Cheng immediately stood up and glared at Liu Qingshan: "The death of the monk Not only I, the actor, can't bear it, but many senior actors are complaining about this, and many people who have watched the pilot are scolding the screenwriter for being inhumane. Boss, you have to give everyone an explanation!" Liu Qingshan said fiercely at him. He raised his fist, which caused laughter, because many people knew that Geng Cheng was a member of the Liu family's class.
He later explained: "Although Monk Wei is a hero born for war, my personal opinion is that a hero like Monk Wei must not be defeated by the little devils, so let him die in the hands of Chinese bandits, and also Meeting Li Yunlong who is willing to fight for himself, it can be said that this character is very lucky. He has such a few close friends in his life, and his life is not in vain." Li Youbin also expressed a similar view: "Like Monk Wei Such heroic figures sacrificed too much in that era, and most of them didn't even have a name! Mr. Liu's purpose of writing this character to death was to warn the world of the cruelty of war, although it is difficult to accept it. , but it is an unavoidable reality!" Liu Qingshan nodded: "And no matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of the kitchen knife. In the face of modern military weapons, the value of pure force is not something you can look down upon. It is for this reason that after the liberation of China, There are few masters in martial arts, why? Most of them died on the battlefield, which is the main reason why a large number of traditional martial arts have not been truly passed down!"
"As a martial artist, I have a better understanding of this industry. I also hope to warn the world through Wei Dayong's tragic experience that many of our early martial arts masters lost their lives on unknown battlefields. Most of them Some people have become unknown heroes, and few future generations know about their great achievements. It is sad but deplorable. I am willing to bear part of the infamy for them!" Many people in the audience stood up and applauded because they heard it. Liu Qingshan also stood up and pressed his hands down, still talking.
"And looking at the whole play, there are actually three foreshadowings for the monk's death. The first one is when Li Yunlong took the monk to make up and sneak into the Juxian Tower, preparing to sing a good show with Chu Yunfei. The monk was a guard , Eat so much. And before Li Yunlong could have an attack, he jumped out first."
"The second scene is when the monk and Duan Peng entered the city and were caught by strong men repairing fortifications at the city gate. The monk was about to have a seizure at that time. If Duan Peng hadn't stopped him, he would have been beaten into a sieve."
"The third part is the martial arts competition between the monk and Duan Peng, and then there is a conversation with Li Yunlong. The monk said that if I die one day, who will take care of the leader. Of these three foreshadowings, the first two are due to character reasons. The third place is the introduction I can arrange."
"Why? The monk's discipline is indeed too poor, and his temper is too impulsive. Personally speaking, it is not a shortcoming, but for a guard, he is unqualified."
"His martial arts skills are indeed very strong, but how many enemies with live ammunition can he deal with with bare hands? When he was able to escape from the training base of the Japanese special forces, luck played a big part. Therefore, this character cannot bear the slightest grievance, and when his blood boils, Just do it regardless of the occasion."
"To be honest, after the monk was killed by the bandits, he died with his eyes open. After it is officially broadcast, many people will not bear to watch this section. Even I will skip this section after watching it. It is really heartbreaking!"
"But this phenomenon happened during the war. You won't be spared just because you are particularly good. Everyone has the potential to become the raw material in the meat grinder. Only the God of Death is immortal, because there is no aura of the protagonist in reality. Superhero movie endings only happen in movies and TV shows!”
"Remember one sentence: a dragon falls into the mud and is teased by a shrimp; a phoenix enters a cage and is ridiculed by a sparrow! Why did Guan Yu, the Chinese version of the superhero who dominates the world, die in the hands of Xiao Xiao? Because the waves have wiped out the heroes, because in the true history, There was never a superhuman Batman who saved the world.”
"The water drops of the people form the waves of history, and heroes are those flying waves. No matter how gorgeous the waves are, they will eventually be carried by the torrent of history and roll forward. Those who make the tide stand up to the wave, and those who make the tide can only do it. Stand above the waves.”
"In fact, several characters in the play died miserably, but all these are to highlight the hero Li Yunlong's image of love and justice, with flesh and blood. For his lover, for his brothers, regardless of his own violation of discipline, this way the character's image is explained Fuller."
"I only hope that through the death of Monk Wei, I can warn some people in real life, including myself of course: when charging on the battlefield, those soldiers who rush to the front row without hesitation despite knowing that the opponent has heavy firepower, they don't even have Name, on the screen they are called extras, but on the actual battlefield, they are heroes who use their bodies to clear the way for their comrades."
"Death is the fate of soldiers. There is no need to elevate or belittle it. The deeds of heroes will travel through time and space and echo in history for a long time. He exists in books, movies, and computer games, but it is not important. , I just want his deeds not to fade gradually, but to stay in the annals of history forever!”
"Monk Wei not only has a little bit of Guan Yu in him, but also our national hero and elite detective Yang Zirong. He is a brave man. However, during another encounter with the enemy, the gun bolt froze because it was too cold. , causing the enemy to shoot first!"
"This is the cruelty of war. Film and television works must pay attention to logic, but real wars do not pay attention to anything, because the reality is always so absurd, so real and indifferent. What is reflected behind this character are countless nameless sacrifices on the eve of victory. Hero." His tirade still won a round of applause, but the difference was that many older people's eyes were filled with tears of obvious illumination.
