On August 29, the program team of "The Birth of an Actor" released a message:
We will produce a year-end special episode of "The Birth of an Actor", where we will sit around the fire and talk about this year's film and television dramas and performances. If you have any favorite film and television dramas this year, please leave a message in the comment area, especially those that are niche but you think are great.
As this year's hottest show, "The Birth of an Actor" was immediately greeted with cheers from many fans of the show as soon as the news was released.
On September 1st, "Jump Up" magazine released the news:
What is your favorite fiction book this year? What is your favorite non-fiction book? Who is your favorite actor? What are your favorite movies and TV series? Who is your favorite singer? What is your favorite piece of music? We will issue questionnaires simultaneously in the next four months of September, October, November, and December to conduct year-end inventory! Literary fans, we are serious!
On September 3rd, Yuehutai, Northern Lights Video, and Icefield Video jointly released a list of the most popular works of platform users this year that will be released at the end of the year.
Later, many media and traditional magazines followed suit.
For a moment, everyone in the entertainment industry was a little confused.
ha?
Taking stock of this kind of thing, it was still quite prosperous in the original TV era. At that time, there were often selections for the top ten songs and top ten singers of the year, which was a very critical honor for singers. But with the rise of the Internet age and the decline of music, these things gradually faded out of the world.
Why do so many media outlets suddenly appear again to take stock of the year-end?
Chen Siqi was interviewed and said bluntly: "Evaluation itself should be diverse. Everyone can have a favorite work. Similarly, whether it is a TV station, the media, or an individual, we should all have the courage to express ourselves or our own user groups. When you like a work, you don't just tell everyone, yes, this is our aesthetic orientation, this is our attitude, but you also tell those creators who may not have received enthusiastic feedback for the time being, that we have seen your creation and we like it. ”
"Why do we do this? Because rich and diverse evaluations can encourage creators to create various works." Chen Siqi said, "Mainstream awards have their preferences, and our traditional magazines also have our preferences. Of course, online new media They also have their preferences, and individuals also have their own preferences. Let everyone truly participate in the discussion, and let everyone truly participate in the discussion. Don’t let our reading and watching, just in the time of that book or movie and TV series, communication can open up our inherent thinking and perspective, let us See more things you may not have seen before. ”
At this moment, many people who have been reluctant to speak out on the Internet for various reasons have felt psychologically touched.
Yes, since when did you become unwilling to speak on the Internet? And since when did you start to tend to put away your attitude and not argue with others?
Because I often feel that summer insects are talking about ice and well frogs are talking about the sea, I simply shut my mouth.
But the purpose of communication is to find like-minded people and to expand their world.
Someone asked Chen Siqi: "Is this because of the previous conflict between the Golden Tripod Award and Lu Yanhe that you want to establish a new set of evaluation rules in addition to the three awards?"
"This is not an award, so how can we establish new award rules?" Chen Siqi said bluntly with a smile, "We don't have such big ambitions, and it is not a credible selection. I especially hope that all media can join in and use our The results selected from the user group show A real audience preference that is not obscured by Internet trolls and noise. The more media joins, the smaller the voice of a single media, and the so-called evaluation rules no longer have the final say. What counts is the audience and users of each media.”

"This is too exaggerated." Li Zhibai said to Lu Yanhe in disbelief, "If Chen Siqi does this, it feels like everyone is going to have an earthquake."
"Big earthquake? That's an exaggeration." Lu Yanhe shook his head, "How could it be possible?"
Li Zhibai: "No, you know how many film and television companies and producers I have worked with have contacted me and asked me if I could know this list in advance. They want to put some of their own dramas on it."
< br>
"Operation?" Lu Yanhe was speechless, "I told you that it was voted by readers of "Jump Up"."
"Others don't believe it." Li Zhibai said.
Just as he was talking, Lu Yanhe's phone vibrated.
"Jump Up" magazine released a recruitment announcement and recruited ten part-time staff to be responsible for live broadcasting of opening letters from readers and registering voting results.
The entire process is live broadcast.
Lu Yanhe gave his phone to Li Zhibai, "You can reply to them now. If you don't believe the result, you can watch the live broadcast."
Li Zhibai: "Damn, you guys are really generous."
Lu Yanhe: "Very good."
Li Zhibai: "Only you can play like this. Only if your magazine has a sales volume of about 300,000, will there be a large enough reader base to do this questionnaire for you. Otherwise, the survey samples will not be enough."
Lu Yanhe: "Different magazines have different methods of playing. We use reader surveys. Some magazines are ready to let the editors nominate and vote by themselves, while others invite their authors to nominate and vote."
"That's okay."
"It's all a gimmick anyway. The main purpose is to use this gimmick to let everyone see what good literary and artistic works are worthy of attention." Lu Yanhe said, "It has been a long time since traditional magazines have done an event that attracted a lot of attention. I I heard that many magazines are very enthusiastic about participating.”
This in itself also increases the interaction between the media and its own users, which is an act of increasing stickiness.
Li Zhibai: "It would be too embarrassing if the mention rate of "Fake Death" is very small."
"What are you thinking? This movie has such a high box office. When it was released, your performance also received unanimous praise. No matter whether this movie will enter some people's top ten of the year, at least your performance will definitely enter many People’s top ten of the year.”
It’s time to award several major domestic awards soon.
Except for the Golden Tripod Award, which is special and is held every summer, the other awards are basically held from October to March of the next year.
Lu Yanhe is also curious whether such private discussions about film and television dramas will have an impact on these mainstream awards.
It would be interesting if the final choices from the private sector are very different from those for mainstream awards.
Lu Yanhe smiled.
When applying for the award this year, Lu Yanhe was not polite at all.
On his personal side, "Love Letter" was nominated for Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, and Best Director, and "Friends" was nominated for Best Screenplay (Screenplay) and Best Actor.
Just right, a movie and a TV series.
There is already a big bug in the Golden Tripod Award, but I don’t know what will happen next.
-
On this day, Lu Yanhe had a scene to shoot. He came to the set early and unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.
Liu Bin, editor-in-chief of "TV Review".
"Editor Liu." Lu Yanhe went over to say hello in surprise.
Liu Bin called Yan He enthusiastically, "Oh, you look so handsome."
Lu Yanhe now looks like an ancient scholar.
He smiled sheepishly.
After chatting, Lu Yanhe found out that Liu Bin came here today to make a film appointment with Luo Yuzhong.
"TV Review" wanted to launch the "Top Ten Drama Series of the Year by Major Directors" plan, so it approached Luo Yuzhong and wanted to invite Luo Yuzhong to list his top ten dramas of the year.
Liu Bin said with a smile: "This is still inspired by "Jump Up". If you vote through readers, we will take another path."
"Excellent." Lu Yanhe said.
Luo Yuzhong glared at Lu Yanhe and said, "You are the only one with so many ideas. You will only cause trouble for me."
Lu Yanhe was stunned.
Luo Yuzhong's temper came out of nowhere, and Lu Yanhe was confused.
However, he apologized immediately with a smile on his face, "I was wrong, teacher."
Luo Yuzhong showed a helpless expression to Liu Bin.
"I told you, this guy's face is thicker than the city wall. If you teach him a lesson, he will shamelessly apologize to you. There is nothing to say about his attitude. It's a good thief, but it doesn't work. He will do whatever he wants later. .”
When Lu Yanhe heard this, he almost understood.
Luo Yuzhong probably came here on Liu Bin's behalf, so that Liu Bin could see this scene.
You guys don't come looking for him anymore. It won't work. He has already taught Lu Yanhe what he should have learned. Lu Yanhe is too thick-skinned to teach him a lesson.
After Lu Yanhe understood, he giggled and solidified this persona.
Liu Bin looked at the two of them with a smile.
Luo Yuzhong added: "I saw the article you wrote on the WeChat official account two days ago. It said that I had been shooting realistic themes for most of my life, but suddenly changed my focus to shooting ancient puppets and immortal heroes, and questioned whether I was lacking in skills. Money is enough, so immoral.”
Liu Bin smiled and waved his hand, "Some of the kids below wrote some innocuous articles, but they can't sway you in the slightest. Moreover, if you lower everyone's expectations in the early stage and use your ability to film the drama, wouldn't it be more surprising? I watched it, Without any substantive attack on you, others will only think that the person who wrote that article is a petty angry young man.”
Luo Yuzhong roared.
When the two seniors quarreled, Lu Yanhe could only smile and stand aside without speaking.
"Don't forget what I told you. Let's sort it out. It's best for you to tell the reasons why you like every movie." Liu Bin said, "Don't hide it. The experience of the drama market in these years After so many changes, several rating websites on Yemai.com have become the only criteria for audiences to evaluate the quality of a drama. You are a great director with huge influence, and your choices can influence many people to re-evaluate the quality of a drama. Bad.”
Luo Yuzhong: "You said so much, don't you just want me to help you make money."
Liu Bin said with a smile: "We only make money, but your support can promote the progress of this industry."
Luo Yuzhong waved his hand.
Although his attitude was very impatient, he still agreed.
Soon, "Jump Up" also sent a formal invitation letter to Lu Yanhe, asking him to list his favorite dramas and movies this year.
In this industry, many people are always observing the direction of the wind.
So many media and magazines have taken action, making appointments with big names and doing year-end reviews, so that this matter has not caused any waves at the public level, but it has become a hot topic in the circle.
There were more phone calls.
Ask each other, have you ever received an invitation from any media to make a list of films? Which are the top ten in your mind?
As a result, Yuehu TV also announced that they will hold a "Chinese Drama Festival" at the end of the year, inviting ten film critics, ten directors, ten actors, ten screenwriters, ten photographers, and ten producers in the industry. Vote together for the top ten dramas of the year.
The front line ended.
Inexplicably, the year-end review trend has spread throughout the entertainment industry.

"Yes, we invited Chen Bige to shoot the cover of our October issue. She is a well-deserved queen of our Chinese films and one of the most active actors in the international film industry in recent years."
After the fashion magazine "Style" released the cover of its October issue, Chen Bige's tech-savvy cover received polarizing feedback.
Some people like it, some people hate it.
The editor-in-chief seemed not to have seen the bad comments and said: "I am very happy to be able to work with Bi Ge on such a pioneering and widely praised shooting. In fact, in the past few years, our domestic film and television circles have had many A little boring, nothing Newcomers are emerging. Actresses like Bi Ge who have achieved great success don't often go out to film. But you see how exciting the entertainment industry has been in the past few years. Newcomers are constantly emerging. Bi Ge also takes action, even with several kings. Exploded.”
"Especially now, many media are doing annual inventories of movies, TV series, songs, books and other works. If you want to say, it should have been done long ago. If you want an industry to develop well, you can't always wait. The audience comes to discover some good dramas, and you have to try every means to deliver the good dramas to In front of the audience. Taking stock is the best way. What better way to arouse the public's interest than a ranking list? Who ranks high and who ranks low in such a competition? , the topic and attention are coming.”
"Yes, we at "Fashion" will also participate in this year-end inventory carnival. We will select the favorite movies and TV series of our "Fashion" magazine readers by soliciting opinions from our readers."
"Of course, I will also pay close attention to the lists of other media and platforms. Which works and which stars can stand out from the selections of so many media and platforms. This shows that they are the good works and good actors that have really attracted attention this year. . Then I will recommend celebrities to brands next year and choose which artists to cooperate with. Of course I will care about the results of this review.”
"To be honest, if you are a company or an artist, and you want to get one or two editors, or one or two magazines through interpersonal relationships, OK, that's fine, but you have to get TV stations, video websites, self-media, and traditional media at the same time. , print magazines, newspapers... and even many more Famous directors, film critics, famous actors, who has such ability? As far as I know, there are already more than 30 reviews in preparation and will be released by the end of the year. I don’t know what will happen next. A mule is a horse, so you can only rely on your ability to speak.”
-
This interview with the editor-in-chief of "Fashion" finally brought the matter of "year-end inventory" to the public.
It is not just the magazine "Jump Up" that wants to do this inventory, and it is not just the TV station Yuehutai that wants to do this "Chinese Drama Festival". In the next few months, there will be many places doing this inventory.
At this moment, those who have watched movies and TV series or have their own favorite works will involuntarily raise a question: Should the work I like be able to enter these lists?
-
"This has completely become a big fight." Chen Siqi said on the phone.
Lu Yanhe hummed, "Sister Ziyan must have been a lot of pushing behind the scenes. She was afraid that we would be shot in the head, so she pushed a lot of media to do this year-end review."
"It's good." Chen Siqi said, "This way, the number of people who come to us to say hello can be reduced a lot. There are so many people who have to take stock and want to say hello, but they can't do it."
Lu Yanhe: "The commotion caused by this incident is completely beyond my imagination." Chen Siqi nodded: "Me too, I originally thought that this incident was just for us to do for fun, but I didn't expect that so many people Want to get involved”
"Maybe it's because it doesn't actually cost much to do this." Lu Yanhe said, "However, it can attract a lot of people's attention through these lists. You know, there are many magazines now, The reason why they have not gone bankrupt is simply because they are supported by government funding and cultural funds. There are very few print media that can really survive by relying on normal business operations. They have not been in everyone's sight for a long time."
"If everyone really does this inventory together, the impact of this inventory will be quite large."
"Well." Lu Yanhe said, "Let's see if such an inventory can help some film and television dramas enter the audience's horizons. If it can, I think this inventory activity can continue next year."
Chen Siqi: "No matter what, we at "Jump Up" will continue to do it. As a literary and artistic magazine, we should do an inventory of literary and artistic works. Our readers are very interested in this inventory. Posted on the forum The number of votes has increased several times, and everyone is asking why they can’t vote online.”
"Yes, why didn't you vote online?"
"Because now we are voting online, no one can figure out how many brushes there are in it." Chen Siqi said, "Our questionnaire forms all have separate QR codes, one QR code for each form, and you can't copy it. It means that if you want to vote, you have to spend more than 30 yuan to buy a magazine. Who wants to brush votes? The cost is not as low as buying brushes online.”
Lu Yanhe: “It takes a long time, but in the end we still need original means to ensure authenticity.”
"There is no way."

"Have you received an invitation to the Chinese drama festival at Yuehu Terrace?" Yan Liang asked Li Zhibai.
Li Zhibai: "Me? I didn't. I didn't broadcast any drama this year."
Read the error-free version at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.
"Ah? Zhou Pingan also told me that Yuehutai wanted the three of us to perform a medley of film and television OSTs that day." Yan Liang said.
Li Zhibai: "That may be because they are still communicating with Lin Suyang, and Lin Suyang hasn't told me yet."
Yan Liang: "Are many people looking for you recently?"
"What do you mean?"
"Let me ask you why Lao Lu wants to do the year-end inventory."
"Some of them are strange. This matter has nothing to do with Lao Lu. It was clearly done by Chen Siqi."
"Let's be husband and wife. Although they are not married yet, in the eyes of others, no matter who does what, they are two people doing it together."
"It's weird." Li Zhibai said, "But to be honest, at the end of this year, so many media and platforms suddenly want to do year-end inventory, which makes me very nervous."
"Why are you nervous?"
"Originally, the reputation of the movie "Fake Death" was not that good. When it was released, it was not favored by many media and film critics."
"Then there's nothing you can do about it. Just watch "Liuguang Yin"." Yan Liang said, "I don't need to be nervous. I know that this drama will basically not be included in the review."
"Liuguang Yin" has been too controversial recently.
The plot is controversial, and so is Zhang Lan's performance.
Many people say that Zhang Lan is no longer suitable for playing the role of ancient puppets at his age.
Li Zhibai: "We are really brothers and sisters."
"How did you comfort me back then? In the entertainment industry, you can't be successful in every drama. There will always be some less successful dramas." Yan Liang said.
"Except Lao Lu's."
"Oh, yes, except Lao Lu's."
"Thinking about "Nineteen Years" that I'm about to air, I feel a little desperate." Li Zhibai said, "There is nothing more desperate than discovering that you are actually mediocre."
"I think you are asking too much of yourself. Since Beacon Video wants to put this drama in September and strive to be the drama king in September, it shows that it still has a certain quality."
"You are mistaken. Since there is a starring cast like me and Mr. Jiang Jun, and it is aired in such a low time slot, it shows that the quality is really not that good, so we can only fight for the king of dramas in the low time slot."
Yan Liang had nothing to say.
"The broadcast schedule of "Liuguang Yin" is really favored by the platform."
"Then look at what's so controversial now."
"Controversy is nothing. Look at the number of plays and the number of viewers of this show. It ranks first in the category. Although there are many people scolding it, it is really popular. I see that your latest episode's pre-roll ads have reached 9. " Li Zhibai said, "Do you hope that it will be like the early stage of "The Top of the Mountain", although it has a good reputation, but no one will watch it? "
Yan Liang thought carefully, shook his head and said, "Then I would rather be scolded than be seen first."
"Look." Li Zhibai smiled.
The three of them, except Li Zhibai, have all experienced the taste of "not being seen", so they are not so naive and idealistic. When it comes to making a real choice, bread must be more important.
Yan Liang has high demands on himself, and Li Zhibai has high demands on himself, which are also based on previous achievements.
Compared with previous results, this time was much worse.
After "Nineteen Years of Crime" was aired, the drama took on the popularity of the original novel and starred two popular first-line actors, Li Zhibai and Jiang Jun. On the first day of the broadcast, the drama was very popular, and the drama was airborne. The winner of the popularity list.
However, just as Li Zhibai thought, the evaluation of this drama was not very good.
The main problem is that the editing is poorly paced.
In addition, the supporting characters in this drama who have relatively large roles are very average, and several performances have been ridiculed and trending.
The villain played by Li Zhibai was also said to be too cliched.
On the set of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", everyone suddenly didn't dare to talk to Li Zhibai these days, knowing that he must be in a bad mood.
Li Zhibai sighed.
An executive from Beacon Video sent him a message ten minutes ago: If you had agreed to let Lu Bo come back as director instead of insisting on using Liu Manbo, a new director, the reputation of this drama would not be what it is now. so.
Li Zhibai felt as uncomfortable as someone piercing his heart with a sharp sword.
Liu Manbo also sent him a message: Sorry, the feedback from this drama was not very good.
At first, it was only because of Li Zhibai's support that a newcomer like Liu Manbo could take over as director after Lu Bo's accident.
But unfortunately, the inspirational story of "Bole Xiangma" did not happen this time.
Although the filming of the entire drama seemed to go smoothly and very well on site, Liu Manbo was indeed inexperienced, which caused the entire rhythm of the drama to go wrong during post-editing.
Li Zhibai replied: This is your first time as a director. It's good to be able to make a film like this. It will be better next time.
It took Liu Manbo a while before he asked: This drama has been questioned by so many people, will I have another chance?
Li Zhibai said: This drama also has many highlights. It is just controversial, but it is not a hit. How come there is no next chance?
After Li Zhibai comforted and encouraged Liu Manbo, he sighed, put down his phone, and shook his head.
Just let this matter go.
Li Zhibai thought to himself and didn't think about it any more.
It's no big deal if you fail the first time.
What a crap.
Li Zhibai recalled the situation when Liu Manbo was directing on the scene, and recalled the questions he asked at the time. Well, yes, Liu Manbo was indeed a director who knew how to direct on the scene, and everyone on the scene finally believed in his director. .
He just couldn't use a holistic thinking to process these materials in the later stage.
As one person said, "Nineteen Years" has a lot of stunningly shot sequences, but the combination is weird.
"Dong dong".
Someone knocks on the door.
Li Zhibai was alone in the lounge, and everyone else was kicked out by him.
"Who?" Li Zhibai asked.
He just wants to be quiet now and doesn't want to see anyone.
"Me." Lu Yanhe responded outside.
"And me." This was Yan Liang's voice.
Li Zhibai went to open the door.
"Don't tell me, you are here to comfort me." Li Zhi smiled.
Lu Yanhe: "There is no need to comfort you. No one else knows how nervous you are. Don't Yan Liang and I know?"
Li Zhibai: "Day."
Yan Liang: "However, if you lock yourself in the lounge alone and let the assistants go out, others will inevitably murmur when they see you."
Li Zhibai: "I just want to be alone for a while and think about whether I was too idealistic and too beautiful before."
"What's your conclusion?"
"I think I am right, but my luck is not that good. Liu Manbo is indeed unable to edit so many scenes into a complete and well-paced scene due to his lack of experience."
"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded, "So you are really thinking about this."
"Otherwise what do you think I am thinking?"
"I thought you were crying secretly." Yan Liang laughed.
Li Zhibai: "Oh."
"I was thinking, if the show itself is well shot, it's just a matter of post-production and editing. Otherwise, why don't you find someone to edit it again?" Lu Yanhe asked.
"Ah?" Li Zhibai was stunned.
Lu Yanhe said: "I watched this drama. In fact, many scenes are well shot as an independent chapter. From the editing point of view, Liu Manbo is actually very good at images and shooting, but not good at telling stories. The rhythm of the story.”
Li Zhibai said: "But it's too late to re-edit it, right?"
"You are not asked to re-edit and replace the version currently being broadcast." Lu Yanhe said, "Keep this version, but you can also re-edit it and see where the problem lies."
