The sun shines on the river, making the waves sparkling.
The bow of the boat pierced the blue waves and moved forward bravely. The waves were stirred up, carrying silvery white spray, and each wave was higher than the last.
Fang Yan stood on the deck, holding Gong Cie's shoulders, leaning against each other.
"You and Qingxia went to the hospital to see Cheng Long this morning. How is he? Is he seriously injured?"
"There are skin injuries on the arms and legs, the spine is damaged, and the pelvis is dislocated. The doctor said he was close to being paralyzed.”
"It's so serious!"
Gong Qie was startled, "I've heard you say that Cheng Long works very hard in filming, but this is too hard."
"This is what counts. No matter where you are, the real life-threatening scene is still behind in the climax scene of catching the drug lord."
Fang Yan described it briefly.
When he heard that Cheng Long was about to slide down from a 21-meter-high steel pipe wrapped with Christmas lights and cables, Gong Zhen was shocked:
"This is not a police story, it is simply a life-threatening story!"
"This drama is indeed life-threatening, but it is excusable."
Fang Yan explained: "He is "Dragon" has suffered such a huge setback, and it must find ways to recover its lost reputation. , word-of-mouth and box office, but they have to work harder, otherwise, how can they break into Hollywood? "
"Then Qingxia and Zu Xian will also be in the shopping mall drama. Shooting such a dangerous scene?"
Gong Zhen's tone was filled with worry.
"It is definitely possible, but it is not as dangerous as Cheng Long's."
Fang Yan said that in addition to breaking the glass in the entire shopping mall scene, Lin Qingxia and Wang Zuxian also had to drop the glass at least once.
Gong Zhen exclaimed in shock, "Real glass?!"
"Saccharified glass, how can real glass be broken so easily."
Dialect about movies Most of the glass in it is props, and saccharification is the most common one. In addition, there are silicate inorganic glass, resin glass, etc. "Police Story" is no exception, and the funds for this movie are buying Huge investment in glass.
"I think this "Police Story" can be renamed "Glass Story"."
Gong Qie shook his head.
“Don’t mention it, this ‘Glass Story’ can be used as a promotional gimmick and selling point for “Police Story”.”
Fang Yan said: “Wait until we get to the White Swan Hotel , I must call the crew and ask them to count the amount of glass consumed."
Gong Zhen blinked, not expecting that commercial movies could be marketed in this way, silently noted it down, and learned it again. One move.
The two chatted for a while against the wind, and then returned to the cabin.
"You just said 'Qingxia', that's not right. I remember you have only known each other for a few days."
Fang Yan was surprised, "Why are you so good to Zhao Jing, Are Zhang Yu and Ruixue the same?”
“Maybe this is fate. "
Gong Qie said: "Some people may not be pleasing to you even if you see them a hundred times, but you only need to talk to some people once and you will feel that they are destined to be good friends, such as Qingxia, Zuxian and Xiaolu. To me, they are the latter." Then she recounted their heart-to-heart conversations with some reserve.
"If you two hit it off so well, you can make a movie together in the future."
Fang Yan said half-jokingly: "Maybe you can just ask her to be the heroine in your first movie as a director."< br>
“I really thought about it!”
< br>Gong Xie's tone was full of expectation: "The best, she can break through herself with that drama, successfully transform, and realize the second spring of her career."
"Don't think so far ahead, let's start first Think about what you should shoot for your directorial debut.”
Fang Yan showed a playful smile.
Gong Qian frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. He really didn’t have the slightest clue as to what the first movie would be about.
But at least one thing is certain, that is, what I want to shoot most is works in dialect.
………………
The boat arrived at the dock, and the two rested for a night in Yangcheng. They took a plane back to Yanjing the next day.
After spending a long National Day holiday, Fang Yan returned to the Humanities Society and participated in the organization and preparation of the National Young Writers Symposium. The specific activity plan had actually been roughly finalized before he set off for Xiangjiang.
The time is set for November 5th, and the meeting will last 3 to 4 days.
Just like last year's Hangzhou meeting, which was held at a hotel by the West Lake, this meeting was held at the Xiangshan Guest House in Yanjing.
It will be the season of crisp autumn air, and it is also the best time to go to Xiangshan to enjoy the red leaves.
The entire "People's Literature" editorial department was very busy, and it was not until the draft invitation list was submitted to the superiors that they could relax.
After Fang Yan finished dealing with the situation at hand, he was "brought" to the Feitian Award ceremony at the invitation of Gong Cie, Su Ya, Wang Shuo and others. After all, he was in the "Stewardess" who was shortlisted for the award. "The titles of "producer" and "consultant" are hung in it.
At this moment, representatives from Yanjing's large and small TV stations, including CCTV, came to the venue, and comrades from local TV stations who came from afar gathered together in twos and threes to discuss the current situation of the TV industry. Development planning, experience and opinions on TV series production, etc.
"Teacher Fang!"
"Director Lu, Director Zheng."
Fang Yan saw Lu Xiaowei, Zheng Xiaolong and others coming towards him, and he was stunned. As soon as I said hello.
Looking around, in addition to the people from the Television Art Center, there were also the starring actors of "The Stewardess" standing nearby, Zhang Guangbei and Zhu Ru...
There are 8 Feitian Awards in total, among which the "TV Series Award" ", "Single Script Award" and "Short Play Award" are divided into first, second and third prizes.
The remaining 5 awards are individual awards, including Best Actor and Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Actor, and Best Lighting (Photography).
Gong Qie and Zhu Lu were shortlisted for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress in the Feitian Awards, but Zhang Guangbei's Feitian Awards competition was the most intense.
I want to compete with Chen Jianfei, who starred in "Harbin at Night" and "Going Away".
"It's really thanks to Teacher Fang and Wang Shuo that the TV series produced by our Art Center was shortlisted for so many awards this time."
Zheng Xiaolong cupped his hands, his words full of gratitude.
“Excellent, this is actually everyone’s contribution and collective hard work.”
Fang Yan said: “Even if we weren’t there, with your filming of “Four Generations Under One Roof”, it would still be the same It can produce good results.”
Lu Xiaowei and Zheng Xiaolong followed the conversation and said that as soon as "Four Generations Under One Roof" ended, the Television Arts Center was looking for a new script and planned to make it into a TV series before the end of the year so that it could be broadcast at the beginning of next year. So I plan to continue cooperating with Fangyan’s studio.
"What novel have you fallen in love with?"
When Fang Yan heard about the business, he smiled. "Teacher Fang, Director Lu and the others picked "Plain Clothes Police" and "Crime Squad"..."
Wang Shuo opened his mouth, and Zheng Xiaolong and Lu Xiaowei nodded in agreement. .
“They are all types of criminal investigation.”
Fang Yan is not surprised. Since the emergence of a series of mystery and criminal investigation novels such as "The Criminal Officer Song Ci of the Song Dynasty" and "Serious Crime Team", they have not only boosted the sales of "Mystery World", but also set off a revolution in reasoning, criminal investigation, and police. There was an upsurge in the creation of popular novels on gangster and other themes.
Even radio stations began to launch mystery and suspense radio dramas, and television stations began to broadcast short TV series about police and criminal investigations.
“This is also in line with the needs of the current audience viewing and strict crackdown situation.”
Zheng Xiaolong grinned.
Fang Yan understands it very well, but understanding is understanding. He still declined the request to make "Crime Squad" into a film and TV show. Because the novel is still being serialized, it will not be too late to wait until it is finished before filming, which puzzles him. Yes, why didn't Lu Xiaowei and the others consider "Song Ci, the Punisher of the Song Dynasty"?
"Who says we haven't thought about it!"
Su Ya replied: "Of course we want to make "Song Ci, the Criminal Officer of the Song Dynasty" into a TV series!"
"Teacher Fang, To be honest, no one in our art center doesn’t want to film "Song Ci, the Punisher of the Song Dynasty" "."
Zheng Xiaolong was surprised and happy, "If you are willing to authorize us, we will definitely shoot well and never slack off!"
Fang Yan couldn't help but joked: "Since you guys If you think so, why didn’t you mention it just now? ”
"Isn't this because of funding issues..."
Zheng Xiaolong told the truth that most of the TV Art Center's funds this year were spent on "Four Generations Under One Roof". "Song Ci", we have to wait until next year, so we can only settle for the next best thing and use the remaining funds to make "Undercover Police".
“We can’t spoil a good novel like “Song Ci, the Punisher of the Song Dynasty.” Funding and treatment like "Journey to the West" , but the entire art center will do its best to ensure that this TV series is filmed well and will never disgrace Teacher Fang’s masterpiece.”
“With your attitude, I don’t think I can give it to you. .”
Fang Yan walked to the designated seat and sat down.
Zheng Xiaolong, Su Ya and others looked at each other with ecstasy on their faces.
These days, not only police and gangster-themed TV shows such as "Crime Team" and "Plain Clothes Police" have become popular, but also ancient suspenseful crime-solving TV shows such as "Song Ci, the Criminal Officer of the Song Dynasty" have become popular. It has also received much attention from television stations and studios across the country.
Based on the information they have, no less than three or four TV stations are planning to make a costume suspense TV series.
For example, Henan TV Station is planning to adapt the Bao Gong story and historical stories in "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" into a TV series called "Bao Gong".
Another example is the Quanzhou TV series, the "Di Renjie" TV series has also been approved.
"But I suggest that "Song Ci, the Punisher of the Song Dynasty" does not have to be filmed in one go."
Fang Yan said: "It can be divided into two parts, or the first part and the second part. The second and third parts were filmed in batches."
"Why is this?"
Everyone looked at him with doubts.
Dialect considers that the original version of "The Punisher of the Song Dynasty" has 52 episodes. With the financial, human and material resources of the Television Art Center, even if it takes out a whole year's wealth, it may not be possible to film it, let alone other TV series. Shooting plans require a budget.
Lu Xiaowei, Zheng Xiaolong, and Su Ya thought about it for a while and found that what they said was indeed not unreasonable.
“Of course, there is no solution.”
Fang Yan suggested that the Television Arts Center could find other TV stations to cooperate, or even cooperate with TVB, ATV and other TV stations in Hong Kong.
“A TV station in Xiangjiang?!”
Everyone was startled by this bold idea, but Lu Xiaowei, a veteran of the Jianghu world, was keenly aware that this was a great opportunity.
With the introduction of Xiangjiang TV series such as "Fearless" and "The Condor Heroes" into the mainland, the cooperation between the two parties in TV series has become closer and closer. Just this year, ATV directly cooperated with CCTV. It set a precedent by sending the crew of the TV series "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" to the mainland for filming.
"Yes, since movies can be co-produced with Xiangjiang, there is no reason why TV series cannot."
As soon as Su Ya said this, Lu Xiaowei and Zheng Xiaolong immediately started talking. It can be said that there are different opinions.
It wasn’t until the award ceremony officially started that all the discussions suddenly stopped, and the noisy venue became quiet.
The entire Feitian Award presentation process is not as complicated as that of later generations. The process is quite concise, and the host will not deliberately create suspense to delay the time. He will announce the winners directly without any delay, and then let the winners come on stage to receive the award, and then say a paragraph about the award. Testimonials.
But unfortunately, although "Stewardess" was shortlisted for four awards, both Zhu Lu and Zhang Guangbei lost to strong competitors.
Only Gong Jie won the Feitian Award for Best Actress. He was only one short of the Golden Eagle Award for TV dramas before he could win the Mainland Performing Arts Grand Slam.
(PS: The Magnolia Award was only established in 1986, and the predecessor of the Huabiao Award was the "Ministry of Culture Outstanding Film Award")
Looking at the good sisters standing on the stage shining brightly , Zhu Lu clapped her hands and applauded, feeling happy from the bottom of her heart. However, when she thought that she was about the same age as Gong Cie and had acted in many TV series and movies, but after all, she only achieved small success, her envious eyes were mixed with a hint of loss.
"We will still have a chance in the future."
Su Ya comforted her in a low voice.
Seeing this, everyone began to comfort Zhang Guangbei and Zhu Fu, who were defeated.
"In my opinion, a few actors for "Song Ci, the Punisher of the Song Dynasty" can be determined first."
Fang Yanzuo looked at Zhang Guangbei, who is undoubtedly the best candidate to arrest the head. After all, this is Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian, who has been wandering for half his life and only hates that he has never met his master!
Look at Zhu Fu on the right. She was originally planned to play Song Ci's wife Xue Yuzhen, but now she changed her mind and will play Zhu Yinggu, who has a crush on Song Ci.
"Me?"
Hearing this, Zhu Fu shook his head repeatedly: "How can this work? Gong Qie is more suitable for the role of Zhuyinggu than me."
The result was that Gong Cie came off the stage, readily agreed to Fang Yan’s casting plan, and actively offered to play Xue Yuzhen.
"You acted as my partner in "The Stewardess". This time I will act as your actor, so don't refuse!"
"This...this..."
Zhu Fu opened his mouth.
"Stop this and that, stop pushing and pushing between the two of us."
Gong Cie patted the back of her hand and looked at Fang Yan, Su Ya and others. People, "It's settled like this, what do you think?"
Wang Shuo said suddenly: "This crime-solving team is short of candidates for Song Ci. Otherwise, Teacher Fang, you will be burdened to play Song Ci..."
"What a good Wang Shuo you are."
Fang Yan pointed at him with a smile and handed over the decision-making power of Song Ci's casting to Lu Xiaowei and Zheng Xiaolong.
Before everyone started discussing, their attention was quickly attracted by the first, second and third prizes of the TV series that were about to be awarded. (End of this chapter)
