After Cao Xuan got the script of "In the Name of the People", he studied it carefully again, and even flipped through the original work.
Frankly speaking, there are still some differences between the original book and the TV series. The former is more straightforward, while the latter adds a certain amount of artistic rendering to fit the public perception.
This is quite normal. Although the original work of "In the Name of the People" is popular, there are still some barriers to reading, and TV dramas have a wider audience, and the plot and expression techniques must be adapted accordingly.
Another point is that the script is obviously water-filled. Based on Cao Xuan's experience, 40-45 episodes can be done, and the number of script episodes is a full 55 episodes.
This is also related to the current film and television environment.
Following the official regulations issued by a certain bureau, a TV series can only be broadcast on two satellite TVs at the same time.
Once this regulation came out, the entire TV drama market was greatly affected.
Regardless of the TV station, for the producers, there are both advantages and disadvantages. Some companies take advantage of this to soar into the sky, and some can even be squeezed to the point of bankruptcy.
Industry giants like Fanxing are relatively less affected, but they have not consciously changed.
?Because the days of multi-channel simulcasting are gone, the competition between major first-line TV stations is more intense, and a bunch of online platforms that want to be on the top, all parties are throwing money out like a competition, and the film and television companies are making crazy money.
Regardless of rough production, because TV dramas are sold according to the number of episodes, almost all crews, including Fan Xing, have more or less injected water into the script.
Some production crews insist on themselves, and online platforms and TV stations even ask you to subscribe. If you don¡¯t subscribe, people won¡¯t buy it.
Because you can sell more money by injecting water, and other platforms can attract more viewers to earn advertising money. Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep. After a long time, even audiences habitually like long dramas, and people don't want to watch less than 30 or 40 episodes.
The platform, film studios and audiences form concepts, which in turn affect the market. It was not until some audiences got tired of it and complained, which led to regulations from above, that this vicious circle was broken. The general trend is like this, Fanxing is considered to be less affected, after all, the golden signboard is here and has its own confidence, but some TV dramas still have a certain increase.
Cao Xuan also turned a blind eye, because Fanxing's project income was related to everyone's performance, and it was really unstoppable.
Don't be crazy or deaf, don't be a family member!
The script created by "In the Name of the People" in this environment naturally has the same problem.
However, as long as other projects are not too much, Cao Xuan can pretend to be deaf and dumb, but "In the Name of the People" is a task drama, and Cao Xuan himself participates, so there is no need to do these anymore.
Cao Xuan singled out some meaningless plots, mainly yellow hair, which were cut and shortened. It is estimated that the final number of script episodes will be around 42 episodes.
As for the actors, many actors in the original version performed very well, and Cao Xuan didn't want to change too much.
If he wants, he can bring in Chen Daoming, Chen Baoguo and others, even superstars from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
But then it became a star show, and it was not a super major typical tribute drama. If it was done like this, everyone would patronize the counting stars, and no one would watch the TV series.
Of course, for some characters that don't appear much, Cao Xuan thought that he could also find someone to play a cameo.
In terms of main creation, Xingwei can keep a low profile and focus on acting skills.
Besides, with Cao Xuan and Hu Jing acting in person, the lineup is immediately full, and there will be no lack of topicality in other combinations.
Sha, Gao, Li, Ji, and Chen are some old actors, Cao Xuan plans to use the original cast, and even Cao Xuan plans to bring in the master to play the role of Zhao Lichun who was not in the original version.
However, the level of this person is too high, and Cao Xuan can't guarantee whether he can shoot, so he has to negotiate.
The young role is relatively simple, many actors can be cast, and Cao Xuan didn't intervene, he only decided on one Zhao Donglai.
It must be - Ding Haifeng!
He, Ximenqing, wants to be Wu Song's boss once again, but unfortunately this time he is a villain again, otherwise he would really like to play Li Dakang, and give this guy a hard lesson.
?As for Hou Liangping, Cao Xuanqi
In fact, I really thought about one candidate before, and that is Erkang Zhou Jie from "My Fair Princess".
Although many people's impression of him is the emoji with dilated nostrils, but this actor's acting skills are still very good in the Mesozoic era. Even if there is no accident, he may even become one of the leading figures in the mainland entertainment industry.
This is not only what Cao Xuan thinks so, but also Chen Daoming, who has worked with him, and even Cao Xuan's master Li Xuejian praised him.
Zhou Jie has an upright face, which is very suitable for that kind of positive role.His so-called world's first seven-star hotel, and the world's tallest building Alifa Tower.
Dubai has even become synonymous with local tyrants, and places like Abu Dhabi and Qatar are now following suit. Even Cao Xuan is not immune, every time he comes here, he must try the seven-star hotel.
Frankly speaking, there is nothing special, at least a normal suite is an ordinary high-end hotel, not even comparable to the hotels Cao Xuan stayed in in China.
Of course, they also have signature suites. Cao Xuan came across a presidential suite specially prepared for him in Abu Dhabi.
How to describe it? Four words - resplendent and magnificent!
The whole room is full of strong gold tones. The most outrageous thing is that there is real gold in it. The bedside table has pure gold patterns. of.
Really, Cao Xuan has seen too many TV dramas, but in reality this is the first time he has seen a golden toilet.
It's not that he thinks extravagance is valuable. With his net worth, it's no problem to get himself a golden house, but the key point is that it's too much of a waste, and it looks very that.
And he is very curious, why did the staff prepare such a room for him, is his temperament so vulgar?
Cao Xuan finally changed the room, living in such a house, he dazzled his eyes.
Zhang Chong was very reluctant to part with it, he was particularly curious whether the toilet was really made of pure gold, could it be covered with a layer of gold skin?
"Gold is soft, you can try pinching it." "Pinch it, but it didn't move."
"It's probably not pure gold. It's mixed with something. Your fingers aren't strong enough. You can try it with your teeth. If you can bite it, it means there's not much mixed in."
Zhang Chong hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to bet on whether anyone had used this thing, so he could only leave and expressed his indignation.
"It is estimated that this is their mind and no one will check the authenticity, so it is not up to them to say."
However, Cao Xuan felt that it might not be fake, if he had a certain amount of money, then
It's true that money is not money. The golden toilet is absurd, and there are even more outrageous ones.
He knew an old Italian man who liked to collect walking sticks. There was a walking stick in a warehouse at home, which was inlaid with various gemstones, including diamonds the size of fingernails, glass-type emeralds, emeralds, sapphires, and countless rubies.
Robbed the old man's warehouse, it is estimated that the international high-end gemstone market will suffer some fluctuations.
Every time he sees them, Cao Xuan has an urge to steal from the rich and help the poor, to do justice for the heavens.
What? He is richer than them, so forget it
Cao Xuan was more happy in the Middle East concert. After work, the arrangements for basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation were really thoughtful, and there were a large group of wealthy fans chasing after him to give gifts.
In terms of net worth, few people in this group can compare with Cao Xuan, but if it is said that he can spend money to prodigal, Cao Xuan is the younger brother.
?No way, the eight generations of poor peasants are afraid of being poor, and they will not enjoy it if they have money. They have guarded the cornucopia of oil for several generations, so they are really rich and powerful.
Ren is Cao Xuan's various excuses, and most of them were rejected. When he left, he still had an extra
A seaside villa, a small yacht, a small plane, two lions, a team of camels and all kinds of miscellaneous gifts.
After leaving the Middle East, Cao Xuan held farewell concerts in Africa and Australia.
It is worth noting that although several concerts have been held in Africa, the main fans are mainly white and Arab.
This is also helpless, Cao Xuan does not mind going to some countries with a large number of black people, but it is true that the basic conditions are insufficient, the common people have no money, and they have no interest in concerts.
Cao Xuan opened the concert to give back to the fans, but he didn't want to lose money and make money, so he could only focus on these African countries with better economies.
And the concert is not without black fans. There are still some black fans in South Africa, and the wealthy class in many other countries are willing to go to South Africa and Morocco, countries where concerts are held, if they have the conditions.
Many black fans took advantage of this to make trouble, saying that Cao Xuan was just putting on a show, but in Africa, Cao Xuan's concert was highly praised.
After all, there are not many superstars who come to Africa for concerts. Cao Xuan's presence is a plus in the eyes of Africans.
South African National Television even called Cao Xuan affectionately, thanking him for his wonderful performance and respect for Africa.
