Go Legend

Chapter 610: Insiders and Outsiders

   Chapter 610 Experts and Laymen

After reading the list of candidates for the first protagonist provided by Zhao Jiadong, Li Xiangping was a little surprised. The information on the top was obviously Brother Huang Xiaoming, the second one, the ex-husband of the princess, who was called "soft" by many later generations. Fanboy's Li Yapeng, the third place, Chen Kun

   This Nima seems to be the most popular of these people these days. Even Li Xiangping, who doesn't pay much attention to the film and television industry, can now see news of these people in the media every day.

   Watching Li Xiangping flip through the documents, Zhao Jiadong said with a smile: "Xiangping, how are you, are you satisfied with the people Uncle Zhao is looking for?"

   "Here, these people are so popular, can they play a Go drama?"

   Zhao Jiadong waved his hand casually, looking like he wasn't worried at all: "Today I won't discuss whether or not to invite people, just talk about whether it's suitable or not, come on, Mr. Wang, Director Qiu, huh, huh,"

When talking about this, Zhao Jiadong smiled and nodded to Lao Nie and the Hua leader: "There are several masters in the Go world, let's discuss now and see which is the most suitable, by the way, let's discuss Shi Xiangxia first. The candidate, because in this drama, we follow Xiang Ping's suggestion and focus on Shi Xiangxia, which means that he is the first protagonist in the whole drama. Let's discuss him first, and then decide on Fan Xiping's candidate. ."

   Looking at Zhao Jiadong's "domineering leak", Li Xiangping also felt that his worries just now were a bit silly. Zhao Jiadong, who is that? It is no exaggeration to say that he is the small group of people standing at the top of the food chain in the entire entertainment industry. To give a very simple example, later generations mentioned whether a certain star is popular or not. People often say this: Well, so-and-so is very popular now, and he has obtained a lot of film and television resources.

   That's right, evaluating whether a star is popular or not, and whether he can "get resources" is a fairly hard-core indicator, but Zhao Jiadong is a small group of people who can "provide resources".

   In particular, the resources he provided are quite high-quality. For example, the drama "Big Master" has been scheduled to be broadcast on CCTV before it even started filming. Therefore, he and those popular stars are actually two classes.

   If you consider that he is not short of money now, and has already raised funds early, it seems that he is really qualified to be domineering.

   figured out this joint, and Li Xiangping didn't worry about anything else and began to concentrate on thinking about his own plug-in actor.

It's a pity that it's a pity, don't look at him being very interested in this "great national player", and even shouting that the old Shi actor insisted that he agree, but if he really asked him to come up with some specific opinions, he really can't take it as a layman. come out.

   For example, take Brother Huang Xiaoming, is it appropriate for him to play Lao Shi? Can't Li Xiangping tell?

   If good, how good is it? If it doesn't fit, what exactly is wrong with him? Li Xiangping couldn't even tell.

   In addition, if you think he is not suitable, what do you personally think is the most suitable? Of course Li Xiangping couldn't say it either.

   It was because he couldn't say anything, so when Zhao Jiadong really asked him for his opinion, Li Xiangping was a little dumbfounded at the time.

   In desperation, Li Xiangping had no choice but to directly resort to the method of diverting his eyes. He aimed his eyes at Lao Nie and pretended to respect him:

   "Hehe, Teacher Nie, what do you think? Who do you think is the best to play Shi Xiangxia?"

This time, Lao Nie didn't take the trick of Li Xiangping: "Haha, you ask me? I haven't read the script, so I don't even know what the story is. Let's talk about you first. Leader Hua and I are here this time. I just want to show the attitude of our Go community, I really support making such a TV series, come on, let me read the script first.”

After    finished speaking, Old Nie Ruo started to read the script without anyone else.

  Li Xiangping had no choice but to turn to Team Leader Hua for help, and Team Leader Hua smiled:

"I only found out about this yesterday, so my attitude is the same as that of Old Nie, and now I have no right to speak, but Xiangping, what are you worried about, the so-called skill industry has specialties, we are experts at playing Go, but film and television dramas, There are still so many experts here, I think we should listen to the experts first.”

   When Team Leader Hua finished speaking, everyone's eyes naturally focused on the other two in the room. Li Xiangping could see that Zhao Jiadong seemed to respect the old man Wang who was about to go into the ground:

   "Old Wang, why don't you talk first?"

   And that advisor Wang was really not polite at all, and he said amazingly as soon as he opened his mouth:

"Hehe, Xiao Zhao, I've read your script, it's a good script! If it wasn't for the good script, I wouldn't agree to be this consultant, but I'll tell the truth, if I want to make the story of this script completely, and I want to do it. If you look good and have a taste, then these actors you are looking for are not suitable, no, let alone those popular stars, I have been thinking about domestic actors these days, but I really did not expect to find a suitable one."

   Hearing Old Man Wang say this, Li Xiangping looked sideways, thinking who is this person? With such a big tone, you still want to go to domestic actors? With your small body, are you qualified to think about Chinese actors?

   Li Xiangping disagreed, but Zhao Jiadong became more respectful:

   "Wang Lao, you said, what do you think is wrong with the script?"

The old man smiled and said, "It's not that the script is wrong, I said just now, this is really a good script, after reading this script, now even I want to see this drama, but this script requires actors It's too high, and it's not something ordinary people can do. In my opinion, if you want to play the two roles of Fan Shi well, you have to be an old actor with super acting skills, especially Shi Xiangxia, because he is the first. The protagonist, the whole drama is from his perspective, so if you want to play him well, you have to contribute to the best actor-level performance."

   Li Xiangping couldn't understand why, but he didn't expect his old man to suddenly smile at him:

"Hehe Xiangping, I heard that this drama was first conceived by you, so in the whole drama, there are a lot of game scenes, right? And I read the whole script, these game scenes are very important, say yes The skeleton of the entire script can't be overstated, is it?"

"Yes, Mr. Wang, I think so, since it's a Go theme, of course it should focus on Go, and there are games in Go. The reason why so many game scenes are designed is actually to tell you: Go, In fact, you don't need to rely on other things, just telling the story of Go well, it should be exciting enough."

"That's right," the old man nodded with a smile: "After reading the script, I understand what you mean very well. In fact, the whole story is really exciting, but have you ever thought about it, since these game scenes are so important, they are the skeleton of the entire script. , The plot of the whole drama is driven by these competitions, so how can we make these competition scenes vivid? How to make them look good? At least, can they be filmed so that the audience can understand them?"

"This"

   The old man's series of rhetorical questions directly stopped Li Xiangping, because he, a layman, could not answer any of these questions.

   But although he couldn't answer, he also vaguely understood why the old man said that the show had high requirements for actors.

   In the whole script frame he designed, of course, there are a lot of game scenes. For example, there are two Shi Fanqi games between Fan Shi and his team, and in the whole play, the meanings of these two games are different.

   "Danghu Ten Game" is naturally the final climax, while the previous Fan Shi Shifan had to reflect Lao Shi's delayed growth, growing anxiety and the brotherhood between Fan Shi and Fan Shi.

For example, in the famous "Nine Dragons Dance" game of Shi Xiangxia VS Cheng Lanru, in this drama, this game is also given a new meaning: First, it is still brotherhood, this is Shi Xiangxia's revenge for his senior brother, and second , Through this game of chess, Shi Xiangxia in the superficial drama has really grown up, and it is precisely because he defeated Cheng Lanru, the leader of the Wulin League at the time, that this made "Ten Lakes" possible.

   It is no exaggeration to say that these game scenes are basically the highlight of the show. As old man Wang said just now, because the plot of the whole show is actually driven by these game scenes.

  Because these are the main scenes, even a layman like Li Xiangping knows that these game scenes are very important and should not be perfunctory. The success or failure of these scenes can directly determine the success or failure of the whole drama.

This kind of truth is really simple and easy to understand. If you don't say anything else, just say those Hong Kong-made kung fu films in ancient times. In the 1970s and 1980s, Hong Kong people made a bad kung fu film, but the last fight They will not be fooled by the scene, and they will definitely make a serious gesture.

  Why is this happening? Because in the Hong Kong movies in ancient times, this scene must be the highlight and the final climax, so they generally don't mess around.

  You don’t dare to be perfunctory when you make a bad movie, so if you want to make a qualified drama or even an excellent drama, you naturally don’t dare to perfunctory the main one.

   This is the question: how to use the film and television lens to make a good game of Go?

  Li Xiangping is a layman, so he never thought about this problem before.

   Also because of this layman, even if he thinks about it now, he can't find any clue.

  Because this is not a problem that can be solved by simple Taoism.

   It is not that the actor's gestures are very standard, the chess shape on the chessboard is correct, and the chess pieces used as props are very elegant, and these things can be used to solve the problem.

  Because of the above, it can only be regarded as a basic qualification, which makes people feel that it is the case.

   However, if you want to get more, for example, let the audience understand the trend of the whole chess game through these game scenes, and even understand the connotation behind the game, these will definitely not solve the problem.

   Most of the time, these problems are solved by the performance of the actors.

Since    is to be solved through performance, a new problem will arise:

Go is a very restrained game and a very "quiet" game. Although it is said that as a qualified actor, expressing emotions such as "emotions, sorrows, sorrows and joys" should be a basic skill, but the joys, sorrows and sorrows in Go are in most cases. The time is actually different from the normal situation - the mood is different.

   Here is a very simple example: A chess player realizes that he will soon win a game, an opponent he really wants to win, a game he really wants to win!

  According to normal emotions, this chess player should have been "ecstatic" at that time, at least, his heart should have been full of joy at that time.

   But in film and television dramas, can actors perform according to normal emotions?

  For example, Li Xiangping, before he won a world championship, would he "show ecstasy" before his opponent admits defeat? Even laughing?

  This is of course impossible. If anyone dares to act like this, Li Xiangping promises to be the first to rush to shoot him to death.

  But if you don’t act like this, for example, before most professional chess players win, most of them must be “invisible”” ​​​

   There is no doubt that it is more realistic to act like this, but if you act like this, what do you want the audience to see? How to express what you want to express?

  Li Xiangping began to pretend to think �����

   Of course he was pretending there, because he was a pure layman when it came to film and television, so what else could he come up with for someone like him?

   It’s okay, Old Man Wang is also considerate and understands that he is a layman, so he didn’t embarrass him, but turned to Coach Qiu and said:

   "Xiaoqiu, have you considered this issue?"

  The middle-aged man who is said to be the director smiled:

   "I thought about it a little before, but I'm still immature. I'm about to ask Wang Lao for some advice."

This remark once again attracted Li Xiangping's side glances. He said that he really has a specialization in the art industry. Look, he has never thought about this problem before, but when someone is a director, not only has he considered it for a long time, he has even thought about it. Still thinking of a solution.

   Maybe it happened that Li Xiangping had seen it, and the director Qiu suddenly smiled at Li Xiangping:

   "Xiang Ping, you know, actually, I really want to talk about it, the way I think of is also related to you."

"what?!"

"Hehe, really, you may not know Xiangping, I'm your super chess fan, as long as it's your game, I've watched almost all of them. Get an inspiration."

"Oh?"

   Now Li Xiangping is really interested:

   "What inspired?"

   It’s the end of January again, so ask for a guaranteed monthly pass next month.
