At Yang Ming's house in Fuzhou, everyone was full of praise for the script of "The Legend of Dragon Eagle".

Everyone is a discerning person and can tell the quality of a script at a glance.

Now that I see the script that Yang Ming has almost finished, I can't help but think that Yang Ming will break the box office record again next year.

There is no war movie that will not be a hit as long as it is well shot.

While everyone was discussing the script, Yang Ming turned to Zhang Beard and said, "Brother Zhang, do you have any filming plans for next year?"

Ever since Zhang Dashu joined Oriental DreamWorks, he had originally planned to write a script for Zhang Dashu himself. Anyway, there were too many scripts from his past life in his mind, so he could just come up with a good or bad one.

However, Zhang Dabeard rejected Yang Ming's kindness.

He wanted to exercise first.

In the past two years, he has made several small-production movies, with good or bad box office results. Yang Ming was worried that he might have some ideas, so he asked him to pay attention.

"Would you like me to get you a script!"

Several people around him looked envious when they heard this. Yang Ming's reputation as a screenwriter is now known to everyone in the film industry.

When Zhang Bearded heard Yang Ming's words, he rarely showed a serious look. After thinking for a moment, he made a decision, shook his head and said, "Let's forget it."

After saying this, he suddenly laughed, looked at Yang Ming with a hint of embarrassment, and said, "Actually, I already have a shooting plan for next year, and it's related to you, Yang Ming."

"Oh? What's going on?" Yang Ming looked stunned.

Several other people also looked at Zhang Bearded curiously.

Zhang Bearded was rarely shy for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses and said slowly: "Next year I am going to make a TV series. I have already found someone to write the script. It is called "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!"

After he told this story, everyone laughed and cursed in the living room.

"Damn it, you bearded man just took advantage of me and tried to sell me off!"

"It's really vulgar."

"Lao Zhang is now like a fox, so cunning!"

....

Everyone laughed and criticized the bearded man.

Zhang Dabeard knew that this was a joke between friends. Not only was he not angry, but he also looked smug and told everyone the news: "Teachers Bao Guoan and Sun Yanjun have agreed to join me in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and Wu Dong

Sun Quan will be played by another person, and Lu Ming and Cao Jingyu have also agreed to join the crew."

As soon as he said this, Kong Changwei, Lao Chai and the others scolded even louder.

This is simply the rhythm of the original version of "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" filmed by Yang Ming.

When Yang Ming heard the news, he was startled for a moment, and then looked at Zhang Bearded with a rather strange look.

This guy is so cunning.

The two parts of "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff", as a pure Chinese film, although it is set in the ancient Chinese war, it set a global box office record that year and became popular all over the world.

Especially in East Asia, the hurricane of the Three Kingdoms culture has blown up.

Although many movies later followed suit and made movies with the theme of the Three Kingdoms, only a handful of them were hits at the box office.

Only "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff" can make countless viewers never forget it.

Yang Ming's films are so classic that they can hardly be surpassed by subsequent films. Under such circumstances, it is no wonder that those films that follow the trend can achieve good box office results.

This is why, after several imitative films failed, other film companies gradually gave up the idea of ​​making movies with the theme of the Three Kingdoms.

But now Zhang Dabeard wants to film a TV series about the Three Kingdoms theme after two years.

And most of the actors are the original cast of "Three Kingdoms: Red Cliff".

Yang Ming's eyes lit up and he had to admire the sharp thinking of the guy in front of him.

He thought for a while and asked: "Who are you going to find to play Zhou Yu or Zhuge Liang? Especially Zhuge Liang, who has a lot more roles in the novel than Zhou Yu."

Since Bao Guoan and Sun Yanjun have decided to join the cast, Zhang Dabeard doesn't have to worry about the roles of Cao Cao and Liu Bei. With the acting skills of these two teachers, it is more than enough to play the roles of Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

It's a pity that Wu Dong can't play Sun Quan.

Otherwise, Zhang Dabeard really moved the three giants from Yang Ming's movie version into the TV series intact.

If this were true, the entire entertainment industry would probably go crazy about it.

But obviously this is not realistic.

The two teachers, Bao Guoan and Sun Yanjun, are both over sixty years old and do not have much ambition for fame and fortune. As long as they have a good script and they can enjoy the drama, it is enough.

But Wu Dong is different.

He is still a first-line superstar, and it is impossible for him to lower his status to act in a TV series, and he is not the starring role.

This idea is obviously unrealistic.

As for Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, played by Yang Ming and Yang Chaowei in the movie, it is equally impossible for them to act in a TV series.

When Zhang Bearded heard Yang Ming's question, he couldn't help but have a hesitant look on his face. He smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said: "To be honest, Yang Ming, I didn't expect who would play these two roles. You two will play these two roles in the movie."

The role is played so perfectly, especially the opposite role is breathtaking. With you two great masters as reference, most people would not dare to take on this drama."

After hearing these words, Yang Ming thought the same thing.

This is indeed the case.

Just like in previous lives, why are there so few similar TV series except CCTV's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?

This version is really so classic that it has already become a benchmark in the minds of the audience.

Even though as time went by, some of the crude arrangements at the time became full of loopholes in the eyes of the audience later, the audience could still endure it and watched it over and over again.

This shows the status of this CCTV classic in the minds of the audience.

In the previous life, in 2010, someone spent huge sums of money to remake the Three Kingdoms. The scenes, costumes, and props of the new "Three Kingdoms" were also extremely sophisticated, and the cost was huge, setting a new high in the history of local TV dramas. The crew spent a lot of money to hire experts to design famous warriors.

weapons, including Cao Cao Yitian

Swords, Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Sword, Zhang Feizhang's Eight Snake Spears, etc. are cast with hundreds of steel-making techniques to reproduce their chilling artifact texture. The largest and most luxurious scene in the whole drama, the Wei Palace, is in the Qin Palace in the famous Hengdian Film and Television City.

Special effects such as location shooting and fireworks are even more expensive.

It can be said that in order to successfully shoot the new "Three Kingdoms", the crew almost spared no expense to perfect every detail.

But what about the result?

It’s still a mixed bag of broken promises.

The version filmed by CCTV is so classic that almost all films and TV shows with the theme of the Three Kingdoms will use it for comparison.

The results speak for themselves.

Whether it is the plot of the story or the performance of the actors, there is a certain gap compared with the old version.

This also shows that whether it is a TV series or a movie, the core thing itself is acting and plot.

As for the others, they are only auxiliary at best.

In particular, the new "Three Kingdoms" has unprecedentedly extended the TV series to 95 episodes, which is enough to drown out all kinds of inexplicable comments. In addition, the image of Cao Cao has been reset and he has vaguely become the leading actor of the entire TV series. This obviously ruined the situation.

The extended meaning of the Three Kingdoms.

Thinking of this, Yang Ming was shocked and couldn't help but ask: "How many episodes of this TV series are you planning to shoot?"

Hearing this, Zhang Dabeard lowered his head and thought for a while, and after doing some calculations in his mind, he raised his head and said: "I want to film a complete Three Kingdoms. The starting point is to start with the Yellow Turban Uprising and end with Sima Wei. The plot should probably exceed

Hundreds of episodes!”

Sure enough.

A flash of relief flashed in Yang Ming's heart, but it was reasonable to think about it.

As the most dazzling and fascinating period of history in Chinese history, the Three Kingdoms has unparalleled charm.

If we really want to make a TV series about the Three Kingdoms, the scale of the series will definitely not be small.

He frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said: "You'd better control it. The plot can't be too delayed. This is not the Internet. It takes too long to explain everything clearly. I guess the audience's expectations are

The feeling is getting lower and lower.”

(Is this considered self-defeating?)

After saying this, Yang Ming felt a little uneasy and continued: "When I was filming "Red Cliff", I also considered extending the film to a TV series, but I really didn't have time to do it. If you can, you can

Divide the TV series into five parts."

It is indeed true that filming costume films is the most troublesome, especially films with historical romance themes like this.

Whether it is a script or a prop, it must be reviewed several times to prevent any omissions.

Any lack of rigor will lead to criticism from all sides.

"Oh, which five parts?" Zhang Dabeard was shocked when he heard Yang Ming said that he had also thought about filming a Three Kingdoms TV series, but he quickly calmed down and asked very curiously.

"The heroes vie for the throne, the Chibi fights fiercely, the three pillars stand together, the south and the north fight, the three parts return to one." Yang Ming recounted the five major parts of the classic "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his previous life.

In the living room, everyone couldn't help but nodded secretly when they heard Yang Ming's words.
