Shen Cong nodded and said: "This matter is indeed appropriate sooner rather than later. Lao Cen and I have preliminarily determined the author candidates. Many historians are very interested in this, and one after another volunteered themselves and was willing to be responsible for the writing of a dynasty. ."
Wang Xuetao showed a look of joy on his face, and then thought of an important thing, and said: "By the way, there is another very important thing. I just received the notice. Recently, because of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" The reason for this caused a wave of Ming dynasty history in the outside world. However, its enthusiasm is still not enough. After all, there are a few people who are willing to read books, and there are more people who are unwilling to read books. Of course, this is not because of the "Ming Dynasty Those Shier is not good enough, but because those people don’t read books at all, and they don’t read anything at all. Then, they naturally have not read "Those Things in Ming Dynasty". They are still not interested in history. The above is for Let more people join this historical boom, become interested in history, and decide to invest in filming a TV series about the history of a certain dynasty. In order to make this historical boom more popular."
Shen Cong nodded and said: "This is indeed a very good idea. Many people don't know how to read the book, but almost everyone will read the TV series. I don't know which dynasty is going to be filmed above? I don't think it will be the Ming Dynasty. Now there is the work "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and another dynasty will definitely be filmed on it."
Wang Xuetao smiled and said: "Minister Shen said it is true, it is indeed not the Ming Dynasty. As for which dynasty? I would like to ask Minister Shen to take a guess?"
"Oh?" Shen Cong said with a smile, "Minister Wang is here to examine me? Anyway, let me have a guess."
Then, Shen Cong groaned slightly. After a while, he nodded calmly and said: "Our country has thousands of years of history and has experienced many dynasties. There are more than ten dynasties alone. Among these dynasties, there are many dynasties where heroes come forth in large numbers, fame, fame and famous generals compete for the top. Among them, the most suitable dynasty to be filmed into a TV series is the Three Kingdoms!"
After hearing this, Wang Xuetao laughed loudly, and then said: "Minister Shen said it is right, it is the Three Kingdoms!"
Shen Congdao: "The Three Kingdoms is one of the most exciting eras in our history. But how do you make it popular? After all, TV dramas are not written works, and you cannot learn from the methods of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty". If the shooting is boring, I'm afraid It’s hard to be popular."
Wang Xuetao said: "This is the problem. If you film the real historical events of the Three Kingdoms in a single glance, it is indeed likely to be boring. It is estimated that no one likes watching such a TV series."
Shen Congdao: "What should be done then?"
Wang Xuetao said: "I have been thinking about this problem, just when I remembered it, I wanted to ask if you have any good suggestions?"
Shen Cong groaned: "I and Lao Cen both studied history. Let us learn from "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and create a work of other dynasties. There is no problem at all. However, we are afraid of TV drama problems. It is difficult to have any good suggestions. Minister Wang, you might as well go to the CCTV TV drama channel. They are professional."
Wang Xuetao nodded and said, "That's true. I'll ask the CCTV TV drama channel for opinions on this matter."
At this time, Cen Geng, who had not spoken, said: "Have you forgotten about CCTV's filming of "Water Margin"?"
Both Shen Cong and Wang Xuetao were taken aback. They were talking about the shooting of the Three Kingdoms TV series. Why did Cen Geng suddenly mention the CCTV shooting of "Water Margin"?
Suddenly, Shen Cong laughed and said, "Yes, how did we forget this? Last time CCTV was going to shoot a TV series with the theme of the peasant uprising, and invited Li Fan to create an original work for it. Fan was invited to create "Water Margin." Now, we can also invite Li Fan to create a work about the history of the Three Kingdoms. A TV series based on his work will naturally be very popular. We originally planned to invite Li Fan , To compile a work about a certain dynasty, it’s just right now."
Wang Xuetao pondered: "But this time, the situation is a little different from the last time. The last time was about the ancient peasant uprisings. Li Fan can create as he pleases. And this time it is about the history of the Three Kingdoms. If Li Fan creates a "Those things in the Three Kingdoms", I believe it will definitely not be worse than Gu Yong, or even better. But as we said before, TV dramas are not written works and cannot be filmed based on real history. "Those Things in the Three Kingdoms" "The work itself will be very successful, but based on its filming into a TV series, it will not necessarily be successful. Moreover, the most important thing is that our TV series this time will have to face the audience, in addition to passing the "Things of Ming Dynasty". In addition to audiences who are interested in history, there are many more audiences who do not usually read books. They are still not interested in history. How to make them like this TV series is the most important thing. ."
Shen Congdao: "Indeed, if the TV series produced are not very good, even if the readers of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" like it, other people who don't read books will not like it. This type of historical TV series is the worst. Shoot. But we can ask Li Fan for his opinion first."
Wang Xuetao nodded and said, "Of course this is best."
Shen Cong smiled, picked up the phone, and dialed Li Fan's cell phone.
Soon, Li Fan answered the phone.
A few minutes later, Shen Cong hung up the phone.
During these few minutes, Wang Xuetao has been observing Shen Cong’s expression, because Shen Cong’s voice is not loud and he can’t hear what Shen Cong said. He can only judge by the expression on Shen Cong’s face. two.
Seeing a look of joy on Shen Cong's face gave him hope.
As soon as Shen Conggang hung up, Wang Xuetao couldn't wait to ask: "Director Shen, how is it? What did Li Fan say?"
Shen Cong smiled and said: "Li Fan said that he wanted to shoot an attractive TV series about the history of the Three Kingdoms. It is actually very simple. It only needs to make some exaggerations and fictional plots based on the real history of the Three Kingdoms. It's okay."
"This..." Wang Xuetao smiled bitterly, "Li Fan is indeed right, the key is how to exaggerate? How to grasp this degree? Also, what kind of plots must be fabricated in order to be attractive enough. Moreover, this fictional plot cannot be fictionalized at will, nor can it be fictitiously fictitious. Otherwise, it will not be a TV series about the history of the Three Kingdoms, and the original intention will be lost, and the TV series produced will be meaningless."
Shen Cong nodded and said, "Minister Wang is right. To do this is indeed extremely difficult. It is by no means an ordinary author can do it. I can think of only two authors who can do this..."
"Li Fan and Gu Yong!" Wang Xuetao said in an interface.
Shen Cong smiled and said: "It is true. I think only these two unborn genius authors can do it."
"So..." Wang Xuetao's eyes lit up, looking at Shen Cong, and asked hopefully: "Counselor Shen just invited Li Fan to create such a work on the phone? Li Fanke agreed?"
