Chapter 447 447. The Golden Horse Arrives
Wang Zhonglei is a man of action, so he will do it as soon as he thinks of it. He also understands that the popularity of a genre is limited. If he doesn't hurry up, he may not be able to take advantage of the craze caused by Super Girls.
However, Wang Zhonglei doesn't want to completely copy Super Girls for this variety show, which would be too uncreative. He must change his ideas.
Wang Zhonglei decided to consult Nie Wei about this matter.
When he heard that Wang Zhonglei wanted to make a variety show, or a talent show, the first thing Nie Wei thought of was the famous "Come on! Good Man".
It's not about how popular this show is. In fact, although this show is popular, it is still a certain distance from the phenomenon level of Super Girls. The key is that the number and quality of stars promoted by this show are very high, which is the real value of this variety show.
For example, the few young and handsome men who will dominate the silver and TV screens in the future, aren't they all from this show?
Nie Wei had such an idea, and he told Wang Zhonglei about the idea of "Come on! Good Man".
"Do a variety show for boys? It's really good." After listening to Nie Wei's general idea, Wang Zhonglei felt that this idea was really good. It was different from Super Girls and had its own characteristics. The key was that Nie Wei's words touched him.
"This is an era lacking idols. Since it is a talent show, we must bring out some idols to satisfy this market." Nie Wei's words really touched Wang Zhonglei's heart. Why is Super Girls so popular? In addition to the novelty and beauty of the program itself, it is more because the market is empty.
Super Girls is about female idols, so I will do male idols. Anyway, the market is so big, there is no need to worry about no one watching.
Nie Wei has no time to care when Wang Zhonglei's new variety show will start. He is busy now. He participated in "Infinite Challenge" once and completely helped this variety show to open up its reputation. In the past few days, countless TV station contacts have found his own Star Entertainment Co., Ltd. to discuss the broadcast of "Infinite Challenge".
Among them, the most sincere ones are Xiangnan TV Station and Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV Station.
In Nie Wei's heart, it is really hard to tell which one is better between these two TV stations. First of all, let's talk about Xiangnan TV Station. A show called "Super Girl" completely established its position as the big brother of domestic variety show platforms. In addition, there are long-lasting and extremely stable weekly variety shows such as "Happy Camp" and "The More Happy You Are". In almost all national variety show markets, it can occupy the largest piece of cake.
But Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV Station is not bad either. TV stations in the south have always been the entertainment pioneers of the country. For example, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong provinces are heroes of the entertainment of the island, and the program environment there is also the most open.
Moreover, Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV Station is in urgent need of a trump card program like "Super Girl". If it can really be negotiated, "Infinite Challenge" may have a very high starting point.
The two TV stations have their own advantages and disadvantages, and this choice cannot be decided in a short time. It requires long-term negotiations to maximize their own interests.
Compared to the fact that Infinite Challenge is still far away from being broadcast, Shang Jing's "Wulin Wai Zhuan" has made great progress. After watching a few episodes of "Wulin Wai Zhuan", the leaders of Huaxia TV Channel 8 decided to buy this TV series.
And this move is not simple. They are directly preparing to use it as the opening drama of next year. This matter even alarmed Wang Zhonglei. He did not expect that his company's attempt to shoot such a sitcom would be so valued by Huaxia TV.
As for the price, Huayi did not suffer any loss.
The first round of exclusive broadcast rights of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" were purchased at a price of 200,000 per episode. In addition, Huaxia TV also thoughtfully set up some rewards for reaching the ratings. If you calculate, if this TV series can maintain the original time and space, it will not only pay back once, but even Huayi can make a small profit just by relying on the first round of exclusive broadcast rights.
Moreover, TV dramas are not a one-time deal. There will be a second round of broadcast rights in the future, and it is even possible to buy out the broadcast rights of TV dramas. There will also be a large amount of income from TV dramas in other places. In addition, there are DVDs, which is also a long-term means of income. Coupled with some soft income brought by the content of the TV drama, it is obvious that this "Wulin Wai Zhuan" will definitely make a lot of money for Huayi.
After Wang Zhonglei finished the account, he was so happy. He originally thought that it was just a practice work, but he didn't expect it to sell well. This also made Wang Zhonglei more determined to develop in the TV circle. After all, TV is the cultural communication medium that can truly enter the lives of ordinary people at all times.
In addition to the matter of "Wulin Wai Zhuan", Nie Wei has had some minor troubles recently.
At the beginning, Yang Zi secretly notified that someone was going to sabotage his new movie. This really happened. In Nie Wei's opinion, "Back to 20", which could be approved in one review, was almost rejected in the first trial.
Later, Wang Zhonglei learned through his connections that there seemed to be no consensus on the film in the review office. One of the big guys was very sensitive to some shots in the film and had to be rectified or directly deleted.
But the scenes pointed out by this big shot are really nitpicking. There is a scene in the movie where the old man recognizes the heroine and the two interact. The big shot focused on this scene and said that the old man and the girl are in love, which is immoral. But the movie clearly sets that it is just an old lady who becomes younger, where is the girl? Besides, although the interaction between the two is a little ambiguous, it is also required by the plot. Can't the old man have a sunset red?
It was later that Huayi Group, with the support of the censorship office, suppressed the big shot and obtained a very dangerous number of votes, so that the movie was able to pass smoothly in the first instance.
After Nie Wei knew about this, he just thought it was ridiculous.
After all, his own movie is there, and anyone with a discerning eye can see whether it can pass the review. You find someone to make trouble, how long can you hold me back? In Nie Wei's opinion, the other party seems to want to delay its own release time.
However, the other party's conspiracy obviously did not succeed, but instead exposed their own goals. Since the big boss has shown up, the relationship behind him cannot be hidden.
It took less than a week for Nie Wei to confirm that his target this time was the same as what he had guessed at the beginning. It was really the film company invested by Li Zekai. What's interesting is that the other party's film was actually the same batch of films that were censored as "Back to 20" shot by himself.
Obviously, the other party just wanted to catch him off guard. It would be best if they could stop Nie Wei's new film. If they couldn't stop it, they wouldn't be afraid of Nie Wei's retaliation in terms of censorship. After all, when Nie Wei got the news, their film had already passed the review.
"Childish." This is Nie Wei's evaluation of the enemy's actions this time.
However, although Nie Wei despised the other party's despicable means, he was also alert. After all, if he failed this time, it was hard to guarantee that the other party would not come up with other tricks.
But Nie Wei is not a person who sits and waits for death. Since the other party wants to play, Nie Wei will accompany him to the end. Moreover, he has never been the type to passively take a beating. Since the other party has provoked the incident, Nie Wei has also grasped the information of the other party's upcoming works, so it will be much easier to deal with the next love. Nie Wei has countless ways to give the other party an unforgettable blow. Now all he needs to do is quietly lie dormant and wait for the opportunity to retaliate.
Time has unknowingly come to the end of November, and "Her Name" has entered the final stage of closing.
The filming process of this movie can be regarded as Nie Wei's most smooth film. The actual filming time is even less than a month. Nie Wei calculated that it was only 28 days, but in these 28 days, Nie Wei already felt that the filming of this film was complete.
It can be so fast, mainly due to the performance of the actors, the most important of which is the tacit understanding between Nie Wei and Shu Chang, which really interprets another person to the depth of the soul.
Even the actors in the entire group seemed to be infected, showing extraordinary acting skills.
Nie Wei felt that with everyone's good performance, coupled with this creative script, success was really within reach.
However, before the TV series was finally completed, Nie Wei had to give the crew a long vacation. The reason was simple. Nie Wei had to take Shu Chang to participate in this year's Golden Horse Awards ceremony.
It can be seen that the girl was very excited and looking forward to being nominated for the Best Actress in the Golden Horse Awards. Before leaving Kyoto, she kept asking Nie Wei about some interesting anecdotes related to the Golden Horse Awards. Even after getting on the plane, her mouth was not idle. She continued to "harass" Nie Wei and asked him to guess the winners of each award of this year's Golden Horse Awards.
"Do you really want me to analyze it for you?" Nie Wei asked Shu Chang with a smile.
"Of course, and you are not allowed to guess randomly. The analysis must be reasonable and can convince me." Shu Chang did not forget to add conditions to Nie Wei.
"Then I have to think about it carefully. Which one should I analyze first?" Nie Wei scanned the list of nominees back and forth and quickly determined the target.
Seeing Shu Chang's nervous look, Nie Wei decided to tease her, so he deliberately dragged out the tone when he spoke.
"Best supporting actress, it's supporting actress." Nie Wei couldn't help laughing when he saw Shu Chang's relieved look. The girl was embarrassed and couldn't help but pat Nie Wei twice, but the strength was about the same as massage.
After teasing Shu Chang, Nie Wei really analyzed her seriously.
"Among the four nominated actresses, I think the one with the greatest hope is Yuan Qiu. The landlady she played really left a deep impression on the audience. She portrayed the role to the fullest. As for the other three, they were either unable to show their acting skills due to the role itself, or their acting skills were not up to par."
"As for the Best Supporting Actor, I am more optimistic about Anthony Wong."
"Why not Mr. Yuen Wah? I think his performance as the landlord is not bad either." Shu Chang couldn't help but ask. If Nie Wei hadn't said that the Best Supporting Actress was Yuan Qiu, she might not have asked this question. But since she praised Yuan Qiu so much before, Yuen Wah has no chance now, which makes Shu Chang feel a little contradictory.
"Yuen Wah's performance is naturally not bad, but Anthony Wong's performance is better among these people. I have seen "Initial D". Anthony Wong's performance is very natural and measured. He not only shows the charm of the role, but also does not steal the show. It can be said that he is a perfect supporting actor."
"And there is the most critical point, which makes me more optimistic about Anthony Wong." Nie Wei said.
"What is it?" Shu Chang asked hurriedly, really curious.
"That's the usual cake-splitting at award ceremonies. If the Best Supporting Actress is not Yuen Qiu, I think the chances of Yuen Wah and Anthony Wong competing for the Best Supporting Actor are 40:6, which means Yuen Wah still has a 40% chance, but if the Best Supporting Actress is Yuen Qiu, then Yuen Wah's chance is probably gone."
"Let's talk about the Best Actor. I emotionally support Mr. Liang Jiahui more, but rationally I think the judges will give the award to Guo Fucheng."
"What's the reason for this?" Shu Chang continued to ask. She was now completely immersed in Nie Wei's analysis and completely forgot her original idea of just wanting to hear who Nie Wei was more optimistic about for the Best Actress award.
This is the art of chatting. Nie Wei did not forget to temporarily leave some suspense during the analysis, so that Shu Chang always maintained a certain degree of curiosity, so that she was naturally willing to think, which was also the motivation to keep her listening.
On the contrary, if Nie Wei just made a straightforward analysis, then Shu Chang would passively accept everything, and he would probably get bored after listening to two, and would not ask endless questions like he is now.
"'Dragon City Years' is a rare and excellent Hong Kong film after 'Infernal Affairs'. Teacher Liang Jiahui's performance in it is even more remarkable. He played an ambitious guy vividly, and people felt creepy when they saw him appear. Compared with Guo Fucheng's performance in 'Forking Crossing', his acting skills are really different from Liang Jiahui's."
"Then why do you think Guo Fucheng can win the award rationally?"
"There are many reasons, such as the proportion of the role in the play, fame, and the views of the Taiwan authorities on him in the past, etc."
"Then let's not talk about the leading actor, let's talk about the next one, the best original screenplay?" Shu Chang pointed to the original screenplay award and asked Nie Wei with a smile.
Nie Wei confidently replied, "I think I'm very confident to win this award."
"I think so too, hahaha." Shu Chang laughed happily. What she loved to see most was Nie Wei's confident look, which was really impressive and extraordinary.
Then Nie Wei analyzed several more important awards for Shu Chang, and finally Nie Wei set his sights on the Best Actress award.
Shu Chang's mentality at this time was no longer as relaxed as before. Although she knew clearly that this was Nie Wei's analysis, she was still nervous for some reason. However, she couldn't help but look forward to it. After listening to Nie Wei's analysis for so long, she no longer regarded Nie Wei's analysis as a joke, because Nie Wei's analysis was really reasonable. She seemed to want to know in her heart whether she had a slight chance to win the Best Actress trophy in Nie Wei's eyes.
