Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

"It's not good, Mr. Jing Yu, come to the set quickly!"

At six o'clock in the morning, as soon as Jing Yu set the phone to automatically turn on, Jing Yu was woken up by a call from his assistant Zhong Xiang.

"what's the situation?"

Jing Yu looked out the window sleepily.

It was still dark.

"The fans of Chess Soul are crazy. Our TV station's official website has been destroyed by the fans of Chess Soul! Besides, there are quite a few fans of Chess Soul protesting outside our film and television base in Shanghai."

"Huh?" Jing Yu suddenly dozed off and disappeared.

Half an hour later, he rode his own motorcycle to the outside of the film and television base.

"It's him, it's him."

"He is Zuo Wei!"

"That's right, Teacher Jing Yu is here."

There, a team of hundreds of passers-by surrounded Jing Yu immediately after seeing him.

Jing Yu was suddenly surrounded by crazy chess soul fans, and Zhong Xiang, who had been prepared, quickly called a group of people from the crew to help, and then pulled Jing Yu into the crew.

"Ma'am, what's wrong with these people? Why are they so enthusiastic?" Jing Yu was terrified.

"I can't help it. The tenth episode of the Soul of Chess last night brought too much excitement to the audience. They know some industry conditions, so they went outside the crew to block Mr. Jing Yu. In fact, it was at the headquarters of Yunteng TV Station, where There will be more people waiting to catch you, Mr. Jingyu," Zhong Xiang said.

"Is this common?" Jing Yu asked with a puzzled expression.

The audience rating of Qihun is only 6% to 7%. It can be said that every season, there are dramas with this rating in every week. It is impossible for every drama to be slightly unsatisfactory. Fans of the drama, let it be like this!

"That's definitely not it!" Zhong Xiang looked at Jing Yu.

"The point is, it depends on how much the audience pays attention to the plot!"

"The high ratings of the six major dramas are more due to the past cultivation. The audience's viewing habits of TV stations, the popularity and popularity of the stars in the film and television dramas, and the excellence of the scripts are jointly determined. So even if their dramas Stretching in the late stage of the plot, but this rarely happens because many viewers actually don’t have much expectation for the plot at all. Can you watch star idols?"

"As for the soul of chess, although the ratings are at the same level as the top three dramas, basically all fans are attracted by its excellent plot, or most fans of the soul of chess are attracted by the role of Zuowei The expectations for the role of Zuo Wei are too high, so fans will find it difficult to accept Zuo Wei's disappearance in the plot. "

"Teacher Jing Yu" Zhong Xiang hesitated for a moment and then said.

"The collapsed official website was repaired by the staff before, and there are tens of thousands of posts on it, all of which are asking for Zuo Wei to return to the plot of the chess soul in the back."

Jing Yu was lost in thought when he heard the words.

Not long after, Cheng Lie also rushed to the film and television base.

"It's over, a lot of fans outside our TV station are all booing there. They are all protesting that the role of Zuo Wei can't disappear."

Cheng Lie looked at Jing Yu. He wanted to say something, but he still didn't say it, because he knew that he didn't need to talk about this topic.

Sure enough, at 7:30 in the morning, Minister Meng Yu called from Yunteng TV Station.

Jing Yu looked at it, hesitated for a moment, and still answered the phone.

"Xiao Jing!"

"Minister Meng Yu's voice is full of vigor, and it seems that he has been in good health recently!"

"Hey, I'm an old man, why don't you be in good health! Don't talk nonsense. I'm calling you this time. You must have guessed the meaning. I want to ask if you can change the plot of the character Zuo Wei in your chess soul. .”

"Minister, needless to say." Jing Yu paused, then said.

"Zuo Wei's character's ending is fixed, it's impossible for him to return!"

"But... we are still a commercial TV station after all, we have to consider the demands of the audience!"

"You see, the TV station's official website is directly collapsed by the fans of the TV series Soul of Chess. Although the fans of the TV station have a high probability of being popular for three minutes, they will leave on their own after they calm down for an hour or two at most, but there can be so many of them. The impulsiveness of people coming to the TV station to protest in person is enough to show what the audience thinks. It is impossible for us to turn a blind eye." Meng Yu said on the phone.

Why don’t we just change the ending. Let Jing Yu add a little bit of plot, such as going to temples or Taoist temples to pray to gods and worship Buddha, for example, it’s not difficult for the gods to summon the character Zuo Wei at the end to make the audience happy. It will take a day at most It was shot.

After all, Jing Yu is the screenwriter of this play, and everything is clearly written in the contract. Only Jing Yu is qualified to change the script, and Yun Teng only has the right to decide whether the script will pass the review.

"Mr. Meng, do you think that a classic can be born by pleasing the audience, or maximizing its commercial value?" Jing Yu thought for a while and then organized the language and said.

"Obviously, no, right! The plots of many classic works are difficult for the audience to accept at first, but after repeated reflections, they can appreciate the moving part."

"As for Zuo Wei's disappearance, this kind of plot is the most important part of this work, the finishing touch. So... I refuse this request!"

Meng Yu on the other end of the phone froze

Jing Yu remembered a work from his previous life.

slam dunk

The protagonists have the belief of winning the championship, but they only made it to the top eight and regretted failing. In the end, all the works were completed, but this work has been enduring in the hearts of fans.

Don't the slam dunk fans at that time hope that the protagonists can win the championship, and then play the second national competition and the third national competition?

But Jing Yu believes that if the slam dunk plot really develops like that, and it is serialized for hundreds of episodes, its evaluation will not be much higher than that of Prince of Tennis.

In fact, which slam dunk fan sprayed on Xiangbei and fell to the quarterfinals, so this work is rubbish?

Everyone is just uneasy. But the touch that should be there is all in the heart, and it will not fade.

In the same way, it is the same in the work Soul of Chess.

Of course Zuo Wei can not die, but the question is. If this character disappears or not, how will it affect the drama?

In the play Soul of Chess, the main character is Jing Guang, not Zuo Wei!

Zuo Wei never disappeared, so how did Jing Guang grow? Always stay on the left to teach him how to play chess behind his back? Open the plug-in if you disagree?

He found the Hand of God that he had pursued for thousands of years, which was his only obsession in the world, but at the same time, he also understood at that moment that Xiaoguang was more important to him than the Hand of God.

But there is no other way! The only reason the gods allowed him to survive was to show Xiaoguang the game with Yu Xiaoyang, and then let Jing Guang find the hand of God through this game.

Even though he realizes that Xiaoguang is more important, and being with Xiaoguang is more important than anything else, he still can't decide whether to stay or not.

Among them, the growth and struggle of Zuo Wei and Xiaoguang's mentality is an important part of the later game soul plot.

Changing that would only change the taste of the show.

In the right place, letting this character leave gracefully may be sad, but it can make this character, this work engraved in the hearts of the audience, and changing the plot to take into account the audience's momentary emotions will eventually only make Qihun like this This work loses more color.

"Minister Meng's audience may find it difficult to accept this kind of plot for a while, but please believe that only this kind of chess spirit can make them remember this work twenty years later." Jing Yu said.

On the other end of the phone, Meng Yu was silent for a while.

"Hey, Xiao Jing, you can figure it out anyway! The ratings of Soul of Chess have far exceeded our imagination. From the performance point of view, it has completely met the expectations of this drama in Taiwan. In addition to the indicators, there will be various peripheral sales after the end.”

"Those things are closely related to Taili and your future income. It is foreseeable that Qihun has made Taili a lot of money, so I can use this to convince the senior management of Taili to respect your decision. But what is it? Change the plot, make more money by pleasing the audience, or stick to your original idea, and take a risk that may greatly reduce the commercial benefits of the show. I leave this decision to you."

Meng Yu and Jing Yu have been together for so many months and understand what kind of character Jing Yu is.

Forcing Jing Yu to change the plot here may make the subsequent Soul of Qi merchandise more popular and bring greater benefits to the stage, but it will definitely make Jing Yu feel dissatisfied and dissatisfied with Yunteng.

The subsequent copyright value of Soul of Chess, and Jing Yu's future potential

He chose the latter.

Otherwise, if you change to another screenwriter, Meng Yu is not so easy to talk to. The stage asked you to change the plot and you said you would not change it? Why are you leaving me here so arrogant? Do you still want to get resources to shoot new dramas in Taiwan in the future? If you want to fart, go for it.

Jing Yu hung up the phone.

The people in the crew nearby looked at Jing Yu with strange expressions.

That's Meng Yu, the head of Yunteng's production department!

I refuse your request!

Jing Yu said this sentence firmly, it was too embarrassing.

Hearing this, Cheng Lie was also trembling with fear, for fear that Jing Yu and Meng Yu would quarrel on the phone.

Fortunately, Lao Meng also understands the truth that talents are always a little bit arrogant. For the directors of the production department of other TV stations that Cheng Lie knows, nine out of ten will remember Qiu Jingyu after this phone call, but Lao Meng will not

That's why he is the head of Yunteng's production department!

Cheng Lie let out a long breath.

"Okay. Producer Cheng." Jing Yu looked at Cheng Lie.

"Let's not delay the shooting!"

"Otherwise this week. The second season of Shogi Soul, the goal of filming the second season will not be achieved."

"However, for the fans who are now protesting on the Internet, you need to calm them down. You can ask the station to make an official announcement. As a screenwriter, will I never let Qihun be unfinished?"

"I see that the reason why many fans protested as disappearance is based on the idea that the plot of the game is arranged in such a way that it is unfinished. So we have to dispel their doubts." Jing Yu said.

"That's no problem."

next day

Yunteng's official website released a video shot by Jing Yu's real person.

The content is that Jing Yu thanked the fans for their support for the work of Qihun and this role, and then

"In the past few days, I have absorbed the opinions of fans and read many fans' comments on the follow-up plot of Qihun. I solemnly promise here."

"The first chess soul will not be unfinished!"

"Second. Zuo Wei, has not disappeared, Jing Guang, will see Zuo Wei again"

The short video revived the soul of chess fans who had been depressed for several days.

Left to not disappear?

These are the words spoken by Mr. Jing Yu, the screenwriter and left as the actor!

Now, many fans breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the plot of Zuo Wei’s disappearance will be reversed in the next three episodes

But well.

Here, Jing Yu was actually being cunning.

Of course Zuo Wei hasn't disappeared! In the plot, Jing Guang only realized this truth when he saw the shadow of Zuo Wei in his own chess moves and moves. If he wanted to see Zuo Wei, he could only keep playing chess.

Zuo Wei's soul disappeared, but the chess he left to Jing Guang still survived in Jing Guang's heart.

The fans of the Soul of Chess gradually calmed down after learning of Jing Yu's promise.

Everyone has returned to the happy and harmonious state in the past, looking forward to the plot of the latest episode of Chess Soul
