Rebirth Begins with a Manga Adaptation

After more than half a month of publicity, the trailer of the Soul of Chess was finally fully released on Yunteng TV.

Many fans of Jing Yu naturally waited in front of the TV early.

As the leader of Jingyu's six fan groups, Yu Tingting is naturally more active.

There is no way, she is a member of the Appearance Association, Jing Yu, and his works just appeal to her.

As for the trailer, in fact, in most cases, nothing can be seen. Yu Tingting didn't expect the trailer of Qihun to attract her.

But in fact it is not like that at all!

First of all, it was a bgm that sounded very emotional, a chessboard appeared with the rotation of the camera, and then a cute child with a panicked face caught everyone's eyes.

There was a faint light on the chessboard, and after that, a man dressed in ancient white clothes, holding a folding fan, with a straight bun, and a gentle and jade-like figure showed his figure.

Yu Tingting's eyes widened.

It's over.

At this moment, the hearts of many people in front of the TV jumped when they saw the image of Zuo Wei played by Jing Yu.

Yu Tingting took a sip of water. It's amazing.

"Teacher Jing Yu's ancient image is really amazing!"

"My God, this image is even more handsome than the makeup photo."

"No, sisters, I'm about to forget that scumbag Yuan Cunxi. How can Mr. Jing Yu be so seductive with any image?"

"However, modern drama, why is it decorated in ancient times? Is this a Go drama?"

"I don't know, but based on the trailer, I'm sure I'll watch the first episode of the Soul of Chess next week."

In just one minute's preview, the story setting of the soul of chess was thrown out a little.

During the period of war 1,600 years ago, the strongest chess player in the world possessed himself on the chessboard

Hand of God? What is that, it looks so cute.

Can you let your soul exist for so many years just to play chess? This is really powerful.

At the end of the trailer, the expressions of two children, Jing Guang and Yu Liang, are frozen in the chess hall for the first time.

"It seems that something is wrong? This trailer is different from the serious Go game I imagined!" Yu Tingting hurriedly typed and spoke in the group.

"My God, even though I don't know how to play Go, I really find this trailer really interesting after reading it."

"Me too, I'm not interested in Go, but looking at this preview, I actually think it's okay. It doesn't seem that serious."

"I think it's very interesting. A child possessed by a thousand-year-old chess spirit, this is a fortress! Can TV dramas be filmed like this?"

"People in ancient times didn't die completely, and there are dramas where people live to modern times and become monsters. But the soul possessed the chessboard and came to modern times to play Go. Teacher Jing Yu's idea is good."

Discussions have already started in the fan group, but as soon as the TV screen changed, it began to play some recorded interview highlights about Jing Yu when he was filming on the set.

Yu Tingting suddenly became serious

"Hi everyone, I'm Xiaosu, the host of Yunteng TV station. Compared with the trailer of the Soul of Chess just now, everyone watched it in a blur, right? Then we're going to interview the genius screenwriter Jing Yu, and the audience don't go away." Open, everything you want to know will be answered!" The hostess said with a bright smile and a mysterious expression.

Quickly switch perspectives and get to the point.

"Mr. Jing Yu, may I ask why you want to make a drama about Go?"

On the TV, Jing Yu, who was still putting on makeup, sat on a chair and smiled at the camera.

"Because Go is a traditional Chinese culture, but it has been difficult to learn for a long time, and the promotion has not been very open. I have learned Go since I was a child. I also want to use my strength to see if I can change something. So That’s why there is a play called Soul of Chess.”

"Oh, that's how it is. Then, will Mr. Jing Yu's play be a very traditional and serious brief about the chess world around us?"

"Not at all." Jing Yu said firmly.

"Even if you don't know Go, you can fully understand this drama. In other words, this drama, I am confident that audiences who don't understand Go will become interested and enthusiastic about Go after watching it."

"This play is the best work I have created so far in my film and television screenwriting career."

To put it bluntly, this interview is to use the form of interviews to explain and dispel the audience's doubts and prejudices about the show one by one.

Of course, Jing Yu was there to tell the truth, but the TV audience thought that Jing Yu was bragging about his remarks there.

This interview ended in just over twenty minutes.

However, in the next few days, Yunteng's promotion of the soul of chess will start in full swing.

Various online and offline activities, Shanghai and many first-tier cities, and many places have posted promotional posters for the soul of chess.

Many well-known film critics were invited to promote the show, and even Jing Yu spent two nights in the next three days live-broadcasting variety shows under the arrangement of Yunteng TV.

However, this kind of operation has actually been agreed to be carried out in several other major TV stations.

However, in the new drama that started broadcasting in the spring, the attention of the soul of chess has stabilized at the nineteenth place according to statistics.

On December 31st, Jing Yu just finished filming Yu Liang and Jing Guang's elementary school drama. Starting tomorrow, the two protagonists of Qihun will be replaced by another pair of actors in their teenage years.

And tomorrow, at ten o'clock in the evening on January 1st, the first episode of Chess Soul will officially start broadcasting.

"Okay, you two kids have worked hard, your performance during this time is great"

Jing Yu was saying goodbye to the two child actors who played Jing Guang and Yu Liang's childhood drama.

Then the crew members dispersed one by one.

"Let's go, Teacher Jing Yu, go to have supper."

Cheng Lie put his arms around Jing Yu's shoulders.

"I said, don't push so hard, I'm not the same species as you, a gymnastics man, I'm about to suffocate." Jing Yu used a lot of strength to break free from Cheng Lie's arm.

It has been a month since I came to Yunteng, and everyone has gradually become familiar with each other.

"Ah, sorry, I'm a little nervous." Cheng Lie laughed.

"Are you nervous too?" Jing Yu said.

"Of course! Even if it's me, I don't get this kind of resources and investment often in Taiwan, but I put my future on the drama "Soul of Chess!" Cheng Lie and Jing Yu walked on the street Said.

"Then why didn't you persuade me to change the subject?" Jing Yu said.

"No, you don't need to ask about this kind of thing! If I suggested that, wouldn't Mr. Jing Yu come to our Yunteng? You gave up Chenghai's solicitation and chose our Yunteng, isn't it just to make this show more successful?" The production went well!" Cheng Lie smiled with very white teeth, but his eyes were very clear.

"Besides, I have studied Mr. Jing Yu's. Your previous three dramas received mediocre responses before they started broadcasting, but the final results far exceeded the expectations of the outside world. This shows that Mr. Jing Yu actually predicted the market. It is more accurate than many professionals in the industry." Cheng Lie looked at Jing Yu.

"When I read the script of the play Soul of Chess, I thought it was very interesting. In fact, I wondered if my own vision was wrong and it didn't fit the market. But when I thought that this play was Mr. Jing Yu, you Created, I immediately had confidence, a person who can produce a drama with a rating of 3% in Lanzhou, his talent and vision must be much higher than mine, I believe in you."

There is a lot of uncertainty in filming TV dramas. The plots that the screenwriters thought were no problem before the drama aired may become unbearable to the audience after it airs, even for experienced practitioners. , it is also difficult to avoid this situation. But the reverse is also true. Everyone thinks that Go dramas will definitely not have a market in Dazhou, but that is just a preconceived notion. Whether there is a market will be known only after the drama is broadcast.

If practitioners can judge everything accurately, why did Jing Yu's film and television dramas with an investment of hundreds of millions in his previous life rush?

Like Magic City Cannon, Fengshen Yanyi, Asura, etc., will there be no senior analysts in the crew?

But if you pounce, you pounce! Facts trump everything.

Cheng Lie has always understood a truth, most people don't like something, it may not be really bad. This is actually a matter of choosing between risk and return.

Seeking stability is the mentality of the six major TV stations, but Yunteng is the one who wants to seek breakthroughs.

"That's it." Jing Yu thought for a while and then smiled. "

"Producer Cheng, although it may be a bit arrogant to say this now, in fact, within a month, the show Qihun will prove to you that your choice is not wrong."
