Since 1983

Chapter 83 A Good Knife (1)

I wrote an outline, let's see how it goes.

Screenwriter Chen Yanmin handed over a manuscript, this is a late bloomer who later became the director of Human Insect.

A sound engineer and an actress, who were recording special effects in an old building, were taken to the eerie basement by some strange noise.

The chief and deputy directors frowned frequently when they saw this, You are also a supernatural power and a wronged soul. The scale is a bit big.

It's okay, I'll add a sentence at the end, saying that all these are stories told by mental patients, so that they can pass the trial. Chen Yanmin was full of confidence.

puff!

Xu Fei almost spit it out, the fine tradition of emotional domestic horror films has existed since the 1980s?

As we all know, there are two major characteristics of domestic horror films: no ghosts are allowed! Don't be too scary!

As a result, later generations have formed a routine that can be known without looking. Those ghosts and monsters are either schizophrenic or pretending to be human. Anyway, there must be no ghosts in socialism!

Horror themes are not suitable for TV dramas. After all, the audience is wide, ranging from young to old. Let's watch it later...

Chen Yanmin's idea was discussed for a long time by everyone, who felt that it was very unreliable and denied it.

In fact, this film was filmed later, and it became a movie called The Lonely Soul in the Dark Building. It is said that it scared people to death during the screening and was banned by relevant departments.

Afterwards, several people proposed, all kinds of ideas, and some even asked the protagonist to practice qigong...

Xu Fei was amazed. The imagination of literary and art workers in the 1980s was much stronger than later, because there was no established routine, and no one knew how to shoot or what to shoot...

Everyone proposes an idea, and everyone discusses the feasibility. Simple and extensive, no theoretical basis, all based on experience and flashes of inspiration. Thinking about it, Zheng Xiaolong only graduated in 1982 and has been working for less than four years. Where can he go?

In the end it was Zhao Baogang and Feng's turn, and as expected, one came up with a spy novel, and the other came up with a novel about family feelings, both of which were rejected.

The principal and deputy directors were very disappointed, there was nothing that stood out to them. Lu Xiaowei turned his gaze to the corner, and finally said: Xiao Xu, what do you think?

Uh, I prepared a little bit, but what I said is wrong, please correct me, teachers.

Xu Fei is very humble, but it’s not like that when he opened his mouth, “I’ve been doing this for a long time, starting from 1978. In 1978, CCTV broadcast the first TV series of the new era, “Three Parents”, which was recorded with The imagery equipment is produced in the real scene.

At that time, CCTV made eight dramas, four of which were children's dramas, and this figure was almost the same as the national TV drama output.

By 1979, production had become 19. In 1980, the output has increased to 130...

Let you talk about your thoughts, what are you talking about, are you teaching us?

Jin Yan said impatiently, coupled with that fleshy face, he looked very fierce.

He came from a famous family. Both his grandfather and uncle are academicians, and his uncle is a professor at Mizuki University. He joined the center in 1983, and he was able to become a director immediately. The center has filmed a total of six dramas, and he made two of them himself. Of course, the effect was not very good.

...

Xu Fei looked at the director, Lu Xiaowei waved his hand, Let him finish.

At the end of 1981, Jinmen founded the Radio and Television Magazine to hold the selection of excellent TV dramas. In the same year, the government established the Feitian Award, and in 1983, Popular TV established the Golden Eagle Award voted by the audience.

In 1982, the China TV Drama Art Committee was established, and our center was established in the same year. The following year, the Chinese TV Drama Production Center was established.

In 1983, the state promulgated the four-level TV policy, calling on all localities to set up TV stations to cover the village level, and the demand for TV dramas increased rapidly.

By 1985, the production of TV series had reached 1,300, and the number of TV sets for ordinary people had reached 50 million.

...

Zheng Xiaolong tapped his thigh with his fingers, Lu Xiaowei listened with great interest, just like the last time in the teahouse.

Li Xiaoming, Chen Yanmin and the others looked at each other. Everyone knew these things, but no one put them together and said them together. Now that they were said together, it really had a different meaning when they heard it now.

I quote these materials because I want to say that the development of TV dramas is the general trend and will definitely form a cultural industry in the future.

Industry not only refers to industry, agriculture, forestry and fishery, but also culture and art. When TV dramas have a mature production model, a complete talent training system, an open commercial market, and a broad audience group, this is a complete industrial chain.

We're past the toddler years and it's time to hit the stride.

At present, there are several powerful production bases in China, one is the Chinese TV drama production center, the other is Qilu TV station, the other is Guangdong Provincial TV station, and the other is us.

We have already occupied the forefront, but if we want to maintain this position and develop further, we must form the awareness of this kind of industrialization.

The premise of industrialization is professionalism, not just a few professional and technical personnel, but a mode of thinking.

For example, before we produce a TV series, we must be good at analysis, analyzing works, analyzing opponents, and analyzing audiences.

What works do audiences like to watch? Those who haven't seen it will naturally love it. I have seen similar themes, and we are better than him, so I love watching them.

I have briefly sorted out recent works, and we will discuss together...

Xu Fei didn't take the manuscript at all, and prepared it at home for a week, keeping every word in his stomach.

The first is scars. Take The Years of Tracing as an example. This is a TV series that reflects the life of educated youths. The filming may not be very good, but it has aroused strong sympathy from the audience, especially the educated youths. It was broadcast continuously in January Twice, the occasion was unprecedented.

Then there is the reform category, take New Star as an example. The show wins purely with its subject matter, no matter how well it is filmed, as long as the topic and scale are set, it will be a success.

In fact, it is a political catharsis film, spewing out the pent-up grievances of hundreds of millions of people and pleasing people's hearts.

In contrast, Finding the Back World, with the theme of saving young people who have lost their feet, is delicate and poetic, with exquisite details and remarkable performances.

There is also the folk legend Wu Song, which originated from Water Margin, which is a cultural gene rooted in the audience's bones and has inherent advantages. Coupled with the excellent production and the addition of martial arts scenes to add interest, it is only natural that it will become a craze...

I won't mention other works like Jigong, Xin'an, Four Generations Under One Roof and so on.

Looking at it this way, it seems that we have a lot of high-quality works, but you must know that last year we produced more than a thousand TV series! How many can we remember in the end?

Most of them are shoddy, the number of episodes is thin, and they are made up to complete the task.

If we want to be a leader in the industry, we must first set standards, reject inferior quality, and create high-quality dramas.

All of you present here are teachers and seniors. I have little qualifications, and I am playing tricks here. I personally think that there should be two criteria for a high-quality drama.

The first is the subject matter. Unless it is completely based on the topic selection like New Star, in most cases, absolute novelty is not required. Martial arts, mythology, educated youth, ordinary citizens, and young people who fall in love are all fine, as long as they can be accepted by most people.

The second is excellent production, which covers a wide range of aspects, and I personally think that the core of the story should be...

Hey Xiao Xu, I have to say a few words about this.

Li Xiaoming was absorbed in listening, and couldn't help interjecting: I think the quality of a TV series, its artistry and ideological quality are more important.

It is very important, but art and ideas are presented through stories. Just like the economic base determines the superstructure, stories are the foundation of the carrier of TV dramas.

Including costumes, props, shooting, performances, etc., in the final analysis, it is to serve the story, and then dig out the depth, era, and shock from the story.

snort!

Jin Yan snorted suddenly, I said so much is fake, and I haven't explained what to shoot until now? Fine dramas are so easy to shoot, why should they shock people, because of your mouth?

...

Everyone was a little unhappy. This person is of average level and has a high self-esteem. He has always been unpopular.

Of course it's not based on my mouth. Audiences have different tastes, but there are commonalities on some levels, such as this...

Xu Fei stood up, strode to the board, and tore off the cloth with a swipe.
