Vol 7 Chapter 220: Support domestic products, start from me (subscription required)

Zhang Yun sits in distress because he thinks He Yubai’s "Chinese-style American drama" is very confusing.

American dramas have strong characteristics.

For example, Netflix, from "The Witcher" to "Dungeon", can't escape the **** scene, without clothes...

Well, this is not a feature.

The characteristics of American dramas are the excellent production, the huge investment, and the shortness of the series.

Of course, you can take out "The Walking Dead" and "The Big Bang Theory" to refute me and say that there are not hundreds of episodes in the American TV series? It's more than the number of domestic dramas!

But that is a superposition of many seasons. From a single season, there may be at most 20 episodes, and some even have only six or seven episodes.

Then why can American TV series have so few episodes per season, while domestic TV series can't?

This is a commonplace question. There is no need to explain domestic dramas, the more episodes, the more money you make.

In the United States, because auditing is not a problem, viewers have more choices. American dramas are highly competitive, so in order to minimize risks, producers often shoot episodes in seasons, and the number of episodes per season is very small. To put it simply, American producers are accustomed to testing the waters with a small number of episodes in the first season. If the audience responds well after the launch and earns money, the producers will be able to book the second and third seasons, and even more. many.

Therefore, the American drama has only ten episodes in a season, but the number of seasons can reach the shooting mode of ten seasons.

From Zhang Yun's point of view, in fact, the arrangement of dozens of episodes of domestic dramas has its own advantages compared with the American dramas with only a dozen episodes.

Because of the small number of episodes in American dramas, in order to attract audiences as quickly as possible, many side plots that could have been more brilliant need to be cut off and the main story is promoted throughout.

So when we watched American TV series, we could clearly find that when we watched a season of American TV series, it was actually about an event. This matter is over, then this season is over.

For example, in "Umbrella Academy", the six gourd girls in the play are making trouble here and there, but the whole play is nothing more than advancing the main line of saving the world. When the world is saved, the whole drama is over (the drama actually left a suspense at the end, you dare to believe it).

This kind of drama seems to have a fast pace and a very cool story, but the audience can receive very little information from it, and it takes several seasons to build the entire worldview.

If the intermediate data is not good, it may be cut in half.

And because of the larger number of episodes of domestic dramas, there are more places where screenwriters can operate. A lot of foreshadowings can be laid in the early stage, and multiple clues can be followed, and finally echo back and forth, detonating the plot.

For example, in the classic spy war drama "Latent", a seemingly inconspicuous chicken coop in the early stage can become the most tearful point of the show in the last episode.

This is unmatched by short, fast-paced American dramas.

In addition, because of the larger number of domestic dramas, screenwriters and directors are also more comfortable, slowly shaping roles, describing the worldview, and bringing the audience the most perfect viewing experience.

However, it is a pity that the domestic dramas in recent years have forty to fifty episodes or even eighty to ninety episodes of time and space. Often the stories are told in a mess, and the advantages brought by the large number of episodes have not been inherited, but instead Learned to fill all kinds of moisture inside.

It is precisely because of the large number of domestic dramas that are easy to catch, and now many producers have begun to learn the mode of American drama stick dramas, shooting only a dozen episodes of fine dramas. So far, Zhang Yun has filmed online dramas in this way.

Of course, there are also many so-called "boutique dramas" in China. They only learned the "short" point of American dramas. As for the essence of fast-paced and clear main line, they have not learned all of them.

Maybe this is the so-called Handan Toddler.

At this time, He Yubai's concept of "Chinese-style American drama" made Zhang Yun instantly understand the hidden meaning behind these five words.

If He Yubai has really been in Hollywood for six or seven years and has a deep understanding of American dramas, then perhaps He Yubai's "Chinese American TV dramas" can really inject a clear spring into the stagnant water of domestic dramas.

It's the same goal that Zhang Yun has always insisted on.

Therefore, at this moment, Zhang Yun looked at He Yubai and asked seriously.

He wanted to hear how He Yubai, a man who came back from the United States, would use American drama to make domestic dramas.

"There are many drawbacks of domestic dramas. The most prominent drawbacks are slow pace, long plots, and unattractive. Therefore, I want to use Guanghai Media to imitate the American filming format and shoot a batch of'Chinese American TV dramas'. According to our firm Knowing that the domestic market for American dramas is still very large, many people have been disappointed with domestic dramas and turned to American dramas and stick dramas.

"But because of copyright and other restrictions, the copyright of foreign dramas is rarely available in China. Then if I can shoot a batch of American dramas in China, I think this should be very marketable, and it is not lost. Your'story is king' gimmick."

He Yubai sipped fruit tea and said slowly.

Zhang Yun agrees with this very much: "Domestic dramas do have serious water injection. If you introduce American dramas to film domestic dramas, you can avoid moisture and maintain a fast pace. This is indeed a good idea. And this is what I have always been The pursuit."

"Yeah..." Hearing Zhang Yun's words, He Yubai, who still had fruit tea in his mouth, shook his head again and again, and waited for the fruit tea to swallow into his stomach, before he said, "Zhang Yun, I don't want to shoot domestic products. drama."

"Don't make domestic dramas?" Zhang Yun asked in surprise.

He Yubai said: "I want to use Huaxia people to make authentic American dramas. What's so good about domestic dramas? Parenthood, martial arts and fantasy, it's still Huaxia's style, meaningless. I want to do it. Yes, it's not about filming domestic dramas in the form of American dramas. I plan to directly invite American screenwriters to write American stories, and then film them and broadcast them in China."

"..." Zhang Yun frowned when he heard something wrong, "Can you tell me more about it?"

"For example, like your company's "Ghost Blowing Lantern", if it is filmed in the United States, it will definitely go to the tomb. It is completely unnecessary for the police to catch the tomb after the tomb is robbed. The "The Silent Truth" is even more boring. Is it that complicated? This kind of thing can't happen in the United States at all, and the judicial system is complete over there.

"As for the other dramas I've watched, let alone, those parents are short, there is no way of moderation, courtesy, integrity, shame, etc., China and these weird human feelings, I am really tired of..."

When Zhang Yun heard this, he finally understood.

This He Yubai... why are you saying how good America is?

"Zhang Yun, he seems to be exquisite?" Lin Xinyao, who had been sitting next to Zhang Yun without interrupting, felt wrong at this time, and leaned in and said quietly.

"Be more confident and remove the'seems'." Zhang Yun listened to a few more words, seeing He Yubai getting more and more excessive, as if he was about to come up with the classic saying "The air of freedom is so fresh." How could he not understand He Yubai's true thoughts.

What He Yubai wanted to film was not "Chinese American TV Drama" at all, but "Chinese American TV Drama", which was basically the American TV set. He Yubai may have been in the United States for too long, and for many of China's culture and restrictions, he can't even look down on it at all!

That was completely different from what Zhang Yun thought.

What Zhang Yun thinks is that the "Chinese American TV series" is still based on Chinese culture and absorbs the advantages of the fast-paced American TV series. This is called taking the essence and removing the dross.

He Yubai's "Chinese American Drama", however, abandoned Chinese culture and directly moved the American drama over!

What is this called?

This is called a cultural invasion!

Zhang Yun thought so, snorted coldly, and interrupted He Yubai's words: "I think there are many good points in Chinese culture, but there is no need to deny it completely."

"That's because you haven't seen American culture." He Yubai said, "I agree with the thinking over there."

What's so special, that is, there is no epidemic in this world, otherwise I see how you are still talking about it here!

Zhang Yun was already angry. He stood up and said directly: "In that case, I'm sorry, let's not talk about cooperation."

Seeing Zhang Yun stand up, He Yubai was taken aback.

Isn't Zhang Yun still very interested just now? Why has it changed now?

"Why?" he asked puzzledly.

Zhang Yun took a look at He Yubai's clothes, then pointed to his T-shirt and asked, "Do you know what brand it is?"

He Yubai looked at it carefully and found that there was an inconspicuous X on it. But he didn't recognize it, so he shook his head: "I don't know."

"This is called Xtep."

Zhang Yun pointed to the pants again: "Do you know what brand it is?"

He Yubai did not speak.

"This is Chi Yun."

Zhang Yun finally pointed to the shoes: "You should always know this brand, right?"

He Yubai looked at those black and white canvas shoes and tentatively said: "Converse?"

"No, pull back." Zhang Yun corrected.

"I don't understand what you mean." He Yubai asked bluntly. "The thing I'm most annoying is that the Huaxia people don't say things well. Just tell me, what do you mean?"

Zhang Yun smiled and said: "Supporting domestic products starts with me.

"Different road non-phase plan.

"Farewell!"
