Chapter 608 The Choice of TV Series
As someone who knows more or less the inside story, Zhou Xia has his own opinion about the fact that "The Sun Also Rises" did not win an award.

First of all, the film is too fragmented, and many domestic audiences are very confused, let alone foreigners.

The second point is also very important: Jiang Wen is too high-profile.

Lao Mouzi is also a person who cherishes feathers more. Jiang Wen hinted in front of the media that Lao Zhang would help. .

Speaking of which, as the chairman of the jury, Lao Mouzi still has a lot of power. If he is tougher, he can even decide the best film, director or other awards.

But the film must at least enter the scope of reference for most of the judges, otherwise the chairman is optimistic and strongly recommends it, and the other judges will be dissatisfied if he is too selfish. If there is any news, it will be very bad.

Zhou Xia still values ​​the opportunity to participate in the Venice Film Festival this time, not to mention that Jiang Wen has no friendship with him, even if he has friendship, he will not publicize it.

However, it is necessary for the company to operate. He still has some confidence in the quality of the film. In addition, Nenaldo, the chairman of the jury this time, has some understanding of Chinese culture. "Starting Line" is a realistic theme. Whether it's a young director or Huaxia's, this is his advantage.

After dealing with the company's affairs, Zhou Xia started to work on the post-production of "The New Detective" again. In order to catch up with the Venice Film Festival, he didn't spend much energy on the post-production of "The New Detective". So far, the film's dubbing , soundtrack, special effects, etc., all paused because there was no decision from him.

Zhou Xia seized the time to finalize these matters one by one, and the time has come to the 25th.

The Venice Film Festival opened on August 8, and "Starting Line" was nominated for best film and best director. While staying for two days, after finishing some things, I set off for Venice with the movie heroine Tangtang and others.

In Xiahua Film and Television Branch of Shanghai, in Zhou Xia's office, Er Di, who hadn't seen him for a long time, came to see Zhou Xia on his own initiative.

"Er Di, time flies so fast, school will start soon, you will be in your senior year, and you will graduate next year." Zhou Xia said with a bit of a sigh.

The Erdi in front of me hadn't seen her for three months, and she seemed to be plumper. Seeing that she naturally picked up the apple on the table and took a bite, Zhou Xia couldn't help sighing inwardly, she was really a foodie.

"Well, yes, this is very good. I can freely film after graduation." Er Di is very happy. After joining Xia Hua Film and Television, she has acted in many film and television dramas, and now she is also a first-line actress. The play should be the most famous among the students.

, but she does not have a super memory and actor-level acting skills than Zhou Xia, and she still has to prepare and be busy for exams, graduation thesis, and graduation dramas.

"That's true. After acting in "Three Lives III", you are now very popular and well-known. I heard that the company has arranged for you to be the leading role in several plays. I wonder what you chose?"

Zhou Xia is very satisfied with Erdi's development. That space-time Erdi played supporting roles for many years before starting to play the heroine, but except for "Pretty Li Huizhen", it was very mediocre, even hit the street. Farr is her Many of the supporting roles are very good.

This is mainly a question of the script.

The good ip or good TV drama production team in time and space have long let the little fox, Tangtang, Sisi, Sun Li and other big flowers pick away first, and the rest are flawed. Even if Er Di has good acting skills, but He is a traffic star, so the idol dramas he starred in naturally didn't have much effect.

Zhou Xia doesn't like to watch her repeat the same old ways. There are a few plays that he thinks are very suitable for Er Di.

"There is one I like quite a bit. It is a bit like "Ugly Invincible" called "Pretty Li Huizhen". I decided to act in this one first, and there is another one called "Spicy Metamorphosis"..." Er Di opened her mouth to reveal her choice.

"Forget about "Spicy Transformation Meter"!"

Zhou Xia didn't wait for Er Di to finish, and interrupted her directly. Seeing that Er Di was a little puzzled, he continued: "Er Di, sometimes you change your mind, and you may gain more. I know, there are Tangtang, Sisi, Yaya, and Little Fox among you little flowers. They picked out the best scripts and teams, and the rest must be mediocre. Instead of choosing these works, you might as well choose Some excellent web dramas.

If you look at the online dramas produced by our company, many of them are well-received, and their influence is not as good as the TV dramas broadcast on the stars. Take the online dramas of our company two years ago, such as "Mao Lie", Zhang Yishan, who was a freshman at the time Starring in this drama with Yang Zi and others.

Now that the three films have come down, they have gained countless fans. In addition, you can see "The Year in a Hurry" played by Xiaoshuang and my classmate Cai Wenjing. It was first broadcast on the Internet. You go to act in a web drama, are you willing? "

"Yes, but are there any good works? There are many in the company who say they are not suitable for me." Er Di thinks what Zhou Xia said is very reasonable. She has also paid attention to the company's web dramas before, but the protagonists basically don't want them. Her appearance.

Some of them are true, and it is really inappropriate for her to play the role, but some are actually just evasions.

The good resources in the film and television industry are limited, and Xiahua Film and Television alone has many actors who are more famous and experienced than her in the front line for selection, not to mention those famous female artists from other companies.

"It's easy to talk about the works. The company bought a lot of online novels, and I'll pick them out for you in the past two days." Zhou Xia thought for a while but didn't say it directly.

"But I really like your "Fighter" and "The Pretender". Can I make these two?" Er Di hesitated a little, and asked.

"These two movies don't seem to be suitable for you." Zhou Xia looked at Er Di seriously, wanting to see if she just said it casually.

"Why isn't it suitable for me? I think I can play the heroine of both plays."

"Leaving aside "The Pretender", "The Pretender" is a serious historical spy war drama. The heroine Cheng Jinyun appears to be a progressive female student, but is actually an underground party. Your image is really not suitable, it is too attractive Pay attention."

Zhou Xia tried his best to say euphemistically that Er Di's exotic appearance was too eye-catching, and he didn't fit the role at all.

"Actually, I want to play the role of Yu Manli. From what you've said, it seems that it's not suitable for me." Er Di was a little disappointed, but what Zhou Xia said was the truth, there was nothing he could do about it.

Because of her exotic beauty, she has a lot of advantages when playing some roles, but she has disadvantages in other more rigorous and formal roles.

This situation is natural, and she can only let nature take its course.

"Yes, Yu Manli, you can barely do it, but it's really not suitable." Zhou Xia finished politely, and then continued: "The story of "The Choice of the Sky" is a fantasy novel after all, and it involves many special effects, so it's not very suitable at present. For filming, wait a year or two until the company's technology is more mature and the cost has come down before filming, if it is crudely produced and filmed now, it will ruin the IP instead."

"Well, I see, then I won't bother you."

"Are you leaving now? Didn't you have something to do with me?" Zhou Xia looked at Er Di who was obviously depressed.

"Oh, no more, I just want to ask for your opinion and check for the TV series I star in."
