This star’s style is wrong

In the afternoon, Yan Lan was discussing the sketch "Parents' Story" with the team.

In fact, their team has been rehearsing this sketch for a month, and they have made revisions during this period, but they have never achieved satisfactory results.

Sketch is a language program.

For language programs, the first key point is to shake off the baggage.

There is a saying called "the baggage does not ring", which means that if the actor shakes the baggage on stage, but the audience does not react, it is considered a failure in the performance.

The actors in this sketch team are all from military arts or from the National Theater, so they have solid basic skills.

The baggage set up in the sketch can basically be heard.

However, sketches and noises are different.

The sound is just one baggage after another. It is over after shaking it off, and there is no need to deepen the theme.

Sketch is different. If a sketch is just a collection of jokes, then it will be difficult for the sketch to become an excellent work, and it will also be difficult for it to be included in the Spring Festival Gala.

Therefore, the sketches for the Spring Festival Gala focus on deepening the theme.

To put it simply, it is sensational.

And it should be done in a natural and logical way.

Forcibly sensationalizing can also make the audience feel awkward.

The problem with the sketch "Parents' Story" produced by Yan Lan's team lies in the sensational part.

This is also the most difficult part of a sketch.

After Fang Xing read "Parents' Story" written by Yan Lan's team, he felt that this book was indeed something different.

I just want to deepen the theme aspect, which is difficult to grasp.

Either the force is not strong enough and the audience cannot resonate, or the force is too strong and the audience feels awkward.

…

Yan Lan, director He Rongchang, and members of the sketch team were discussing revising the script again.

The cell phone rang.

Yan Lan took out her cell phone from her bag and found a message from Fang Xing.

Slide it open and see that it is a text file.

She didn't know what it was for, and just as she was about to open it and take a look, Fang Xing immediately sent a message.

Fang Xing: I wrote a notebook. Teacher Yan helped me read it and give me some opinions.

Yan Lan was originally discussing the sketch script with the team, and there was a rehearsal tomorrow, so time was very tight.

However, she still clicked on the text, intending to take a look and see if she could give her some advice.

Originally, she didn't think there was anything special about the notebook that Fang Xing came over.

After all, Fang Xing is a singer. Even if he has learned a little musical theater, it is too far away from language programs such as sketches and dramas.

However, when she clicked on the text and looked at the first page, things were out of her control.

When she read the first paragraph, she felt that the theme of this book was somewhat similar to their sketch "Parents' Story".

So I got curious and continued reading.

When she read the first page, she even automatically imagined a lot of the baggage in this book in her mind, and could even predict the audience's reaction.

The baggage at the beginning of this book is very tough. Even if I just imagine it in my mind, I feel that it will definitely resonate.

After reading the first page, she became fascinated. She quickly scrolled down with her fingers sliding.

At this time, members of the sketch team were still discussing modifications to the script.

The team was discussing, but Yan Lan was looking at her phone in fascination.

He Rongchang couldn't help but ask: "Yan Lan, is there something urgent?"

Since time was tight, the whole team was in a hurry.

When discussing script revisions, someone deserts, which actually affects team cohesion.

However, as an actor with a military background, Yan Lan has always been very serious in his work.

This was not the first time He Rongchang had cooperated with her. He knew that she was very dedicated when she was working, so he asked her if there was something urgent.

Yan Lan raised her hand and replied: "Wait a minute, give me ten minutes."

While she was talking, she never took her eyes off the phone, and she became more and more fascinated by it.

She even went back and read some passages over and over again to figure out the burden inside. The more she read, the better she felt.

Time passed unconsciously.

By the time she raised her head after reading it, the conference room had fallen silent.

The initiators of the sketch team did not participate in the discussion, which had a great impact on the atmosphere of the team.

Moreover, the Spring Festival Gala director team was not satisfied with their skit this time.

If you continue like this, you will definitely be wiped out.

So the atmosphere in the conference room was a little subtle.

Yan Lan was reading a book before and didn't notice the emotional changes of the team members.

At this time, I felt that the mood of the team members was not high, so I immediately clapped my hands and said, "Cheer up, everyone. I feel like we are saved. Xiao Zhou, I will send you a notebook. You can print it out and send it to everyone." Watch. After watching, we’ll discuss it.”

Xiao Zhou immediately ran out to print the script.

I will bring it back soon and distribute it to everyone.

He Rongchang was very curious about Yan Lanfa's notebook, so he picked up the script printed on A4 paper and read it.

All the team members became more and more surprised the more they read this book, and even smiled on their faces and looked at the colleagues next to them.

After reading it roughly, the team members began to point to the passages in the notebook and discuss in whispers.

"This section is good."

"This part is also very good. If I were to act, this baggage would definitely be heard."

After He Rongchang read the sketch script, a smile appeared on his face and he quickly asked: "Where did this script come from?"

Yan Lan smiled and replied: "Fang Xingfa gave it to me."

"Is that the singer I saw this morning?" He Rongchang was a little confused.

If this script was written by a well-known screenwriter in the industry, he wouldn't be surprised, but if it was written by a singer, he would be more surprised.

"Yes, he just sent it to me. I guess it is the script he accumulated. He watched our rehearsal in the morning, revised it and sent it to me." Yan Lan guessed.

"This book is good, can it be used?" He Rongchang asked.

"He didn't say what the script was for, he just asked me to give him some advice. However, since he sent it to me, he must have some ideas. If the director is interested in this script, I think he should be invited to come over. Let’s discuss it together.” Yan Lan thought about it and made this suggestion.

"This book is very good, and the script is written in a very standardized way. The rehearsal will start tomorrow. If you want to change the book, you can't delay for a minute. Can you invite him over now? Don't send WeChat messages and call directly." He Rongchang urged.

"Okay, I'll make a call."

Yan Lan stood up as she spoke, walked to a corner of the conference room, and dialed Fang Xing's cell phone.

After the call is connected.

Yan Lan did not beat around the bush and praised first: "The script you just sent me is great. The director of our team is very interested in this script. Is it possible to cooperate?"

Fang Xing sent this script to Yan Lan. He originally wanted to cooperate, so he readily agreed: "Of course we can cooperate."

"We are very pressed for time, can you come over now to discuss the script?" Yan Lan said quickly.

"Okay, where?" Fang Xing asked.

Yan Lan told the location of the conference room, then urged her, and then hung up the phone.

She returned to the conference table and said, "He'll be here in ten minutes."

Team members were in high spirits and continued working on the script.

"I called the Spring Festival Gala directing team and asked us to send someone over to discuss changing the notebook." He Rongchang said, then stood up and called the Spring Festival Gala directing team.

The conference room where they discussed the script was originally the headquarters of the Spring Festival Gala program team, so the people from the Spring Festival Gala director team arrived first and took the script and read it first.

After waiting for a few minutes, Fang Xing came to the conference room.

"Come and sit."

He Rongchang and Yan Lan stood up together to greet them.

After Fang Xing sat down.

He Rongchang spoke first: "We are very interested in your book, so can we cooperate with you on this book?"

In fact, screenwriters of Spring Festival Gala sketches don’t actually make much money.

The draft may be revised a dozen times and end up costing thousands of dollars.

If the sketch can be selected, it will be better, at least it will have a name.

Screenwriters really don’t make much money if they’re not selected in the end.

This is also the current situation in the domestic entertainment industry. Fans are so profitable that even 18th-tier starlets can make a lot of money.

The screenwriting industry is even worse.

The screenwriter has no say. He has to change whatever the director says. He has to change whatever the lead actor says. He has to change whatever the producer says.

In short, other people can change it however they want, not the screenwriter himself.

Moreover, after a drama is aired, if it is a bad movie, fans will first criticize the screenwriter, and then feel sorry for their idol.

If the show becomes popular, it’s because the actors performed well and it has nothing to do with the screenwriter.

This has led to a saying in the screenwriting industry that "dogs don't even write."

The environment in the screenwriting industry is so bad that even talented screenwriters don’t want to write scripts. This is a vicious cycle, and the industry is getting worse and worse.

Of course, Fang Xing knew the current situation in the screenwriting industry, so he had to show his attitude from the beginning: "I can join the team as a screenwriter. However, there is a prerequisite. My opinions must be respected when revising the script."

The meaning of this sentence has made the attitude clear.

In fact, the real meaning behind this sentence is: If you want to cooperate, please respect the screenwriter and the script.

In fact, in the entertainment industry, except for the small group of screenwriters at the top of the pyramid, other screenwriters are not qualified to make such requests.

The reason why Fang Xing dared to mention it was not because he was very capable in the screenwriting industry, but because he did not rely on screenwriting for his livelihood.

If we all hit it off, we'll cooperate. If we don't get along, we'll break up.

Of course, in order to avoid unpleasant things happening after starting cooperation.

Fang Xing made it clear first: If you respect my script, then we will cooperate. If you think you can change it however you want, then forget it.

This sentence is actually selecting partners for cooperation.

If the team of Yan Lan and He Rongchang is the kind of team that doesn't respect the screenwriter, then there is no need to cooperate.

He Rongchang has been in the industry for so many years, and he understood the true meaning of Fang Xing's words as soon as he heard it, and said: "I have been a director for so many years, and I have always respected the screenwriter's ideas.

"However, the script of the sketch needs to be polished bit by bit based on the results of the rehearsal, so the script still needs to be discussed during this process."

Fang Xing nodded and replied: "Of course, if the result of the discussion is better than the original one, I will agree to the modification."

After all, Yan Lan's team is now going to perform the sketch "Hello, Li Huanying".

Each actor has his or her own characteristics, and there will be differences in how to shake off baggage, so the final effect will definitely be different from the original version.

Therefore, the script still needs to be modified according to the characteristics of the actors.

Fang Xing just needs to control a general direction.

"Well, welcome to join our team." He Rongchang stood up and shook hands with Fang Xing.

Yan Lan also stood up quickly and shook hands with him.

Because time is very tight.

After a brief discussion, He Rongchang took the script directly, went through the sketch as a whole, checked the situation and then made modifications.

The group moved to a rehearsal room.

Yan Lan and other actors had not memorized the script lines yet, so they held an A4 paper in their hands and started performing directly.

After the first pass, although the actors acted looking at the A4 paper in their hands, the performance went smoothly the first time.

He Rongchang couldn't help but praise: "Fang Xing, this book of yours is really good. It went smoothly the first time. There are no major problems overall. You just need to adjust the details."

Before, their team was still worried about revising the script, but now Fang Xing brought Ben into the team and solved the problem directly.

Although time is tight, for an actor with a military background like Yan Lan, one day is almost enough.

If we go directly to the Spring Festival Gala, this little rehearsal time will certainly not work.

However, this is just the first time to play together, so I can handle it.

In this book, Yan Lan first tried the role of Jia Ling, and then changed to Li Huanying.

Yan Lan and other drama theater actors perform on stage.

Fang Xing and He Rongchang were in the audience, discussing the baggage and details of the sketch, as well as the actors' positions and performances.

After rehearsing several times, most of the members were ready to finish the script.

Even if you really can't remember the lines, these experienced actors can make up for them on the spot.

After rehearsing over and over again, the effect gets better every time.

By 5:30 in the afternoon, the sketch had reached its final part.

The actor who played Jia Ling burst into tears.

He Rongchang frowned and said: "This part feels like something is missing... There should be some music to enhance the atmosphere, the kind of music that is very simple and moving."

Fang Xing had to admit that He Rongchang was indeed a very professional director.

So, Fang Xing gave a thumbs up and said, "Leave this to me. I'll come up with the song when I get back."

He Rongchang reacted after hearing this: "Yes, singing is your job. Don't be too anxious. It's best to have music during the rehearsal. If not, you can add it in the second rehearsal."

"I'll give it a try when I get back." Fang Xing didn't finish his sentence.

When the rehearsal lasted until six o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Xing was very satisfied with the performance of these actors and went back early to prepare the score for the sketch.

In fact, the sketch "Hello, Li Huanying" originally had a background song called "Yilan Love Story".

This song fits the story of the skit very well.

However, Fang Xing was not going to sing this song by himself, but was going to help his brothers.

Half a year has passed since the broadcast of "Tomorrow's Star", and Shao Yu's original popularity in the show was not particularly high.

Now that the popularity of the show has passed, the quality of the work Shao Yu has received is not as high as before.

Therefore, Fang Xing prepared to help him. After coming out of the rehearsal room, he called him: "There is a song for the Spring Festival Gala sketch that I want you to sing. Are you free?"

"Of course, even if you don't have time, you still have to make time." When Shao Yu heard that it was a song for the Spring Festival Gala sketch, he was too late to be surprised. How could he refuse.

"I'm in Kyoto now. I don't have time to fly back. I'll send you the lyrics and music. You can go to Songshi Records to record a demo. I'll use it tomorrow. Is that okay?" Fang Xing asked.

"No problem, we'll record it overnight." Shao Yu agreed.

After finishing the call with Shao Yu, Fang Xing called back to the company to arrange the recording.

Now Fang Xing is the God of Wealth of Songshi Records, and after winning the award, he is already the number one brother of Songshi, both in terms of qualifications and strength.

Therefore, the company naturally had to stay up late to complete the work assigned by Fang Xing.

What's more, it's a song for the Spring Festival Gala. Can this kind of work be delayed?
