Coquettish Rebirth

Not to mention whether such an idea is suitable for stage plays and dramas, at least Jia Hongjian thinks such an idea is very interesting!Jia Hongjian had read the novel Du Lala's Promotion in the previous life and such a TV series. In fact, isn't it a story about how a college graduate climbed up step by step after entering the company?How hot this Du Lala was back then!Then, "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem" released in 2012, not to mention it became popular in mainland China, it is also popular in Japan in Daiwan!Especially women all love to watch it!Why do women like to watch "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem"?It's because the intrigue here is too real!It is so real that everyone feels that everything in it can be used in reality!Moreover, a girl like Zhen Huan started as a little girl who didn't understand anything when she entered the palace. She changed a little bit, fought for power a little bit, and finally became a figure of the empress dowager level. Such a process of change makes people feel incomparable praise!Not to mention that there are all kinds of betrayals and alliances!

So speaking of it, if Jia Hongjian wants to use Du Lala's promotion as a story of intrigue in the modern workplace, he doesn't necessarily have to copy Du Lala's story completely!Let’s merge it, make it original, borrow the general background from Du Lala’s, and then use the things Jia Hongjian has seen and used in his previous life for some conspiracy Things should be pretty good, right?Sincere!Thinking about it, Jia Hongjian felt that such a thing would be very interesting if it could be made into a TV series!At that time, it might become a TV series like the annual ratings champion again!But having said that, Jia Hongjian knows how to make a TV series—isn’t it just adding water to the movie, filling the 90-minute story with various details, and making the story into dozens of episodes?Even if it's an American drama that progresses quickly and is very attractive, at most it cuts off the water injection, but still fills in a lot of details.Overall, it's not much different from the movie.

People who know how to make movies come to make TV dramas, and there is basically no difficulty in getting started.So if Jia Hongjian were to write the TV drama script, there would basically be no problem!But on the other hand.The script I am going to get now is not a TV series, but a drama!It is even more difficult than condensing the plot of a TV series into a movie!honestly.Although it is easy to change a movie into a TV series, it is really not easy to adapt a TV series into a movie, because the movie is short and the TV series is long, so the movie is suitable for telling a "short" story, and the TV series is suitable for showing a "long" story, especially It is the changes of the great era, or the growth of a person from youthful to cunning and so on.If you condense a TV series like Zhen Huan into a movie.To be honest, the viewability will be much worse, and many details will be lost.But if it is changed into a drama, then even more details will be lost!

As for the career growth experience that Jia Hongjian wants to express, it is actually suitable for TV dramas. It is actually a bit difficult to adapt it into a movie. If it is adapted into a drama...five or six years or even ten years How can the growth experience be condensed into a four-act play?And because of the limitation of the stage, assuming there are only four background designs in total, even if it is performed in ten smaller segments or ten scenes, what kind of performance can it be?Can it be detailed?In fact, it is really difficult!So Jia Hongjian also felt a little pity at this time.He obviously came up with such a good idea, but who knew it would be so difficult!And it is estimated that even if it is changed in the end, it is likely because it is too streamlined.As a result, the overall details are lost too much!Maybe each of the last four acts can only retain some important growth nodes, but the description and characterization of the characters and various backgrounds are not enough, and many conflicting feelings may not be expressed!

For example, let's assume that the protagonist is a woman, like Du Lala, or simply called Du Lala for the time being, who graduated from university and joined a company.Joined the company at the same time as her, and there was a girl who was in the same school but didn't know her.Both are of the same class.So after entering, the relationship quickly became very good.Both of them are in business, and the business pressure was not too great in the first few months.But the business pressure increased as time went on, and in the end, the two of them could be said to be overwhelmed by performance all day long.There are two things in my mind all day long-what to do today and what to do tomorrow!Under this kind of pressure, maybe an alumnus and classmate is gradually pushed to a dead end mentally, gradually unable to do what he wants, and gradually is forced by pressure to use some other tricks to improve performance... For example, go to ktv for dinner with clients , was touched by the client, and then he simply let go of sleeping with the client...

Such a transformation is difficult to express in movies or stage plays, but in TV dramas, Jia Hongjian can describe a little bit in each episode, and describe each episode in 5 to 10 episodes. Describe a little bit, and finally moisten things silently to achieve such an effect!In the end, what the TV series showed was to give the audience a kind of thing to see with their own eyes how a pretty good girl was crushed by work pressure and turned into a good-looking woman!Everyone will be very sad and uncomfortable, but everyone will know that what is said may be true!Such a kind of shaping of characters and plots is the strength of TV dramas, which is completely impossible for movies and stage plays!

If such a series of things is to be adapted into a stage play, maybe in this scene, such a supporting role is innocent and cute, and in the next scene, it will directly become a human being... Hey, this change is too fast, isn't it?Just thinking about it, Jia Hongjian himself would feel awkward without anyone telling him!What shall we do then?Is it possible to completely give up such a character and plot shaping for the stage play?Jia Hongjian was not reconciled!And besides, if there are only four acts, there is no way for his Du Lala protagonist to show the audience the experience of growing up slowly!There is no way to show how many things he has experienced, how he was used as a weapon by others, and how he grew up slowly after being betrayed!Because there are only four scenes, maybe the last show is that the protagonist Du Lala is advancing by leaps and bounds just like the Saiyans. This scene is still young, and the next scene will be a bit more refined, and the next scene will be just old fritters Alright, the last round is directly at the boss level... Hey, isn't this progressing too fast?Too inhuman?Who can progress so fast?

So at this moment, in Jia Hongjian's heart, there was really an emotion called entanglement that was growing.On the one hand, he was reluctant to part with the subject matter and content, and on the other hand, he felt that he couldn't let go!But he, Jia Hongjian, is not a person who gets entangled and can't stop, so he soon decided to jump out of such a tangled circle and look in from outside the circle. Maybe we can see it more clearly from a different angle. Let the problem be solved!What do you mean by changing an angle, what do you mean by looking in from outside the circle?That is, we only speak from the perspective of the stage play, and only from the perspective of the four acts of the drama. We will do these four acts for us. No matter whether we can express Du Lala’s story completely or in any way, we will first Imagine what stories these four acts could tell!For example, let's take a look at how Chen Peisi's comedy is written, and see what he can write in four acts of a play, so we can get an idea!In other words, maybe let’s take a look at the rhythm of Chen Peisi’s side first, and then let’s think about it according to the rhythm of Chen Peisi’s side. Maybe we can play a scene like "Du Lala" in sections ?For example, what staged goals should we let the protagonist achieve after a play?In the end, it was made into a "series-like drama" structure?

Of course, if you think so, let's see if Chen Peisi has any ideas first.As a result, Jia Hongjian talked to Chen Peisi the next day, and sure enough, this old man really had an idea! "Mr. Jia, I have an idea for the time being... about childcare, to be more specific, it is the childcare of a marriage agency. For example, the protagonist is a marriage agency, and then he makes his charming As for the mid-mature wives, they go to work as babysitters, and middle-aged women who pretend to be widows also come to the door to find someone to introduce someone to. In this way, his marriage agency can introduce this lady boss to men who come to seek marriage, and then People will definitely be happy to see it, so they will give the money. As a result, the old man took the money, and after a few days, his wife couldn't talk to the man because of various reasons. Wouldn't he get the money? The whole general background The design is like this, and the comedy is to turn such a fake show into reality - there is a successful middle-aged man whose wife has passed away for many years, and he also wants to find a partner for the rest of his life. The proprietress went to work as a babysitter, but after a few days of talking, the proprietress really fell in love with this man! How interesting! Do you think the boss of the marriage agency wants money or a wife? ?”

"Well, it turned into fishing with bait in the end, but the bait ran away with the fish... right?" Jia Hongjian understood what was going on. "That's right! It's such a special situation that is self-defeating to produce a comic effect! In order to match this effect, it's better to let the protagonists appear very shrewd at the beginning, and they think they are very smart! Then through this This kind of self-defeating behavior made him dumbfounded, so as to improve the overall smile effect, and finally through a series of things, although he won his wife back, he understood that he can't play tricks, otherwise he might really accompany his wife and lose his army!"

Hey!Don't tell me, this Chen Peisi is really talented!If this idea is used in a stage play, it feels really good!Not too much, not too little, I wouldn't say that there is no feeling that the stage play of "Du Lala" is not enough!Moreover, Chen Peisi and the others' idea of ​​such a story, if it is put into a movie, it feels a bit too lightweight, and it seems not so attractive, but if it is put into a drama, the overall feeling is very suitable!No wonder this old Chen made money and became popular when he made dramas in historical time and space. He really has talent in this area!So what can we learn from others? (to be continued)
