Chapter 288 The chain of contempt in the entertainment industry, learn about it (ask for monthly ticket recommendation)

The ostensible purpose of Liu Zhengyan's trip was to take over the production of the theme song of a film and television drama produced by Magic City Films, and to communicate with the producer face to face.But in fact, Lin Fan felt that Liu Zhengyan came to meet his old friend.

Watching Liu Zhengyan and Hu Yuhua's lively chat, Lin Fan finally realized the feeling of being given dog food face to face.

Fortunately, Hu Yuhua was much more reserved than Liu Zhengyan, and instead of just reminiscing about the past, he turned the topic back to the main topic again.

"Old Liu, you must help me this time."

Hu Yuhua suddenly said sternly, "The deadline for this martial arts drama is approaching, but the theme song handed over by the cooperating music studio is still not up to my standard.

I really don’t understand what the current composers are thinking. I clearly requested a theme song in the style of classical martial arts in the order, but someone actually wrote a rap for me in the theme song! "

When Hu Yuhua talked about this incident, he still felt angry: "Are they trying to let our heroes have a freestyle during the martial arts duel?"

Lin Fan listened to it for a long time before he figured it out. It turned out that Magic City Films was planning to shoot a martial arts drama. The ones shot by the gun are different from the pure special effects of all kinds of lightning and thunder that fly into the sky and escape from the ground at every turn, waving their sleeves across half the screen.

In Hu Yuhua's view, that is not considered a martial arts drama, but a fairy tale drama at all.

"Our drama took half a year just for the training of the actors, and most of the filming was done in real scenes. I dare say that this is the most authentic martial arts drama in the past ten years."

Hu Yuhua was full of confidence, "But after all the most difficult shooting, who would have thought that the theme song would be lost in the end!"

Hu Yuhua typed back the theme song they submitted again and again, asking them to redo it, but until now, they have not been able to produce something that satisfies Hu Yuhua.

Seeing that the show was about to enter the promotion period, but the theme song hadn't been finalized yet, so Hu Yuhua had no choice but to invite Liu Zhengyan to help.

Liu Zhengyan had already received the information sent by Hu Yuhua before, and he knew the requirements of the theme song for the theme song, but he still asked Hu Yuhua to play the sample, which would help Liu Zhengyan grasp the core information and write Songs that fit the theme better.

Lin Fan followed suit and enjoyed the super VIP treatment!

The main line of this martial arts drama is also very simple. It is a story about a young man with many flaws but a pure nature accidentally getting involved in disputes between the rivers and lakes, becoming a master of martial arts, and finally punishing the evil and promoting the good.

Of course, there must be an element of love in which the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes have just begun to love each other and join hands side by side.

Therefore, Hu Yuhua's requirements for this theme song are very clear, that is, the atmosphere of the world should be strong, and even the element of love can be discarded, but it must be authentic.

This stumped the composers.

Because not everyone can grasp this thing accurately.Especially those young composers nowadays, who have not experienced the era of martial arts dramas dominating the screen, and have accepted many new things, they are even more unable to understand what Hu Yuhua wants the original flavor to be.

Liu Zhengyan watched the samples three times, and then Hu Yuhua asked cautiously: "Old Liu, how are you doing? Do you have any inspiration?"

Lin Fan didn't know if Liu Zhengyan had any inspiration, anyway, he already had countless theme songs of martial arts dramas floating in his head at the moment.

When Lin Fan was a child in his previous life, it was also the era when martial arts dramas dominated the earth. At that time, Lin Fan's happiest thing was the old TV in the cafeteria, which played martial arts dramas on time every day.

Every day, everyone in the orphanage sat obediently in front of the TV, staring eagerly at the black and white images on that TV.

Then at night, everyone will put the sheets on their shoulders, pretending that they are the heroes on the TV, and "discussing swords in Huashan" with other children.

Liu Zhengyan nodded: "I have some clues, when do you want this theme song?"

"The sooner the better! At the latest, preferably not more than a week."

"I see, I will finish the theme song for you as soon as possible." Liu Zhengyan said this in a very sure tone, which calmed Hu Yuhua's anxiety very well.

Hu Yuhua smiled and said, "Then I will wait for your good news."

Hu Yuhua wanted to take Liu Zhengyan and Lin Fan to have dinner together, but Liu Zhengyan declined on the grounds that he was in a hurry to write a song.

On the return trip, Liu Zhengyan asked Lin Fan with a smile, "How do you feel? Are you interested in writing a film and television song?"

Lin Fan glanced at Liu Zhengyan: "It's quite interesting, but if you want to write it, forget it."

Liu Zhengyan obviously wanted to take this opportunity to get in touch with Hu Yuhua more, Lin Fan would not be so blind to spoil Liu Zhengyan's good deeds.

However, Liu Zhengyan seems to have misunderstood Lin Fan's meaning: "If you are interested in this aspect, I will introduce you to a few more producers later. There is still a great demand for film and television songs in China. There are many film and television songs every year. The work is online, which is very helpful to improve your closeness to the people."

Lin Fan is very popular now, but his closeness to the people is average, because the audience of music is always narrower than that of film and television works.

Especially in China, there is still a big gap between whether there are popular artists with film and television works, and it is mainly reflected in the degree of closeness to the people.

Let's put it this way, the entertainment industry also has a chain of contempt, drama actors>movie stars>TV drama stars>Internet drama cafes>variety show cafes>idols>Internet celebrities, it is super difficult to go up one level at a time.

Of course, in recent years, there have been frequent occurrences of eccentricities in the entertainment industry, and this chain of contempt is occasionally interrupted. For example, some top-tier existences exist across multiple levels, and they jump around wantonly, which provokes some drama and movie fans. , TV drama fans also had to come out to mix variety shows and play friendly games.

Although the top variety shows have also created some new celebrities, such as a variety show who is good at changing heads, she is so busy shooting variety shows that she can only use photo stickers for her own movies. Although there are constant controversies, it still does not affect her popularity. As for her status in the circle, that's it, she can only rely on rumors of her marriage and divorce with her arrogant husband to fuel her popularity.

However, the original chain of contempt still exists in the entertainment industry based on the competition of strength. After all, no matter how popular a variety show cafe can attract popularity and earn money, it still depends on its works to speak. Without works, no matter how popular it is, it is still inferior.

Making money is indeed important, but work is even more important.

A star without works is like a tree without roots, unable to withstand the wind and rain.

Singers are counted separately, but it is even more difficult for singers to transform into actors. For example, if you let Xiao Zhangwei, Han Hong, and Deng Ziqi play TV dramas or movies, will they make plays?

Lin Fan is relatively lacking in closeness to the people now, and his mass base is relatively weak.But Liu Zhengyan didn't want Lin Fan to spend his energy on filming to improve his closeness to the people, especially when he didn't know how Lin Fan's acting skills were.

That's why Liu Zhengyan suggested that Lin Fan can take over the production of some film and television songs. Although the effect is not as good as direct filming, it can also improve the popularity of the people.

Lin Fan saw that Liu Zhengyan obviously misunderstood what he meant, but Lin Fan still appreciated the other party's kindness: "Thank you, Mr. Liu, but I don't have this plan right now, let's talk about it later."

"Okay, let's finish the game first."

……

Back in the hotel room, Lin Fan was lying on the bed, watching the young lady’s videos, reading books, tossing and turning for several hours, finally couldn’t bear it anymore, got up and called Li Xiaodong: “Where are you?”

Li Xiaodong was also surprised when he received a call from Lin Fan: "Brother Fan, why did you remember to call me? I'm at the company, and I've been busy recently. I don't have anything to announce. Are you on the island or in the magic city? If you’re in the capital city, I’ll ask you for a drink!”

"I'm in Shanghai, by the way, is Lu Bingyang with you?"

"No, Brother Lu, he's been filming a movie recently. It's the web drama I told you about last time, the one about Lei Shi."

"I was just about to tell you about this. I saw Lu Bingyang today."
