Chapter 118 0117: The Other Party Is Very Arrogant
Jiang Ge is not the only one who will take advantage of opportunities to promote, Wang Cheng is also a good player in this area.
"Blade" is a drama cooperating with Golden Shield Film and Television, and it is broadcast on CCTV. The official resources are full. The leading actors Xu Chenyi and 95 little girl Guan Yansi both appeared on the CCTV New Year's Day party. The publicity effect is great. drop.
In addition, with the huge mountain of Penguin at our back, we directly opened a special topic on Penguin Video and conducted an exclusive interview with the crew.
"Director, this is your first time working with Xu Chenyi and Guan Yansi. How was their performance?"
"I think people are a little biased against Xiaoxianrou and Xiaohua. Nothing can be achieved in one step. Acting skills need to be accumulated slowly. Besides, Yan was the most attractive young actor in the 80s and 90s. The value is also very high, but there is no such thing as "little fresh meat" or "little flowers". In fact, it is the same thing. Please give them more time. "
"Director, can you tell us about the highlights of the show "Blade"?"
"It is no exaggeration to say that our drama is very large-scale in terms of plot content. Different from previous police and gangster TV dramas, this time every case is interpreted from the perspective of a special police officer. The truth behind it will show the unique style and advanced weapons and equipment of the Chinese special police. It is a good drama full of adrenaline. "
"Director, we saw that another police drama "White Night" was launched on the same day as yours. What do you think of this opponent?"
"Haha, in fact, we are not in the same subject. They are supposed to be in suspense reasoning. Our drama took three years of self-initiation, preparation, and filming. We spent a lot of time polishing the plot, actors, production, etc. There’s no comparison.”
…
The director's interview seemed to be watertight, but in fact he revealed a lot of information. He was very satisfied with the performance of Xu Chenyi and Guan Yansi, was very confident in the quality of the drama "Blade", and had no pressure on the drama "White Night". .
at the same time.
Penguin News: ""Blade" Weibo update, Xu Chenyi and Guan Yansi are coming with new characters. Fans have the same wish to compete for next year's Golden Eagle Award!"
What to watch on QQ: "Penguin Entertainment joins forces with Golden Shield Film and Television to create the most powerful SWAT TV series in China!"
Penguin Video: "The interview with the director of "Knives Out" has many interesting points. The "Taoist-style" of the crew, or the main actors with excellent acting skills, reputation, and good looks, all whetted the audience's appetite!"
…
Penguin-based platforms have begun to exert their efforts, and the best promotion positions such as homepages, headlines, pop-up windows, etc. have all been arranged, and the popularity has quickly exploded.
Xu Chenyi, Guan Yansi, and "Blade" have all been hotly searched on major news platforms, and have attracted a lot of attention.
"If you are not on the same level, how can you be called an opponent?"
"From actors to service to plot, is there any significance in comparison?"
“‘Knife’s only rival has a ratings record!”
"With Xu Chenyi and Guan Yansi being the two most popular people, it is normal for them to be criticized."
"Don't force yourself on our idol!"
"There are a lot of suspense mystery dramas produced every year, but all of them rub the audience's IQ to the ground."
…
Last time, because netizens compared it with "White Night", Xu Chenyi and Guan Yansi were said to have only traffic but no acting skills. Their fans were holding their breath. Now that the broadcast time is right, they must not pick up the keyboard. Fire.

"Director Wang, the topic has become a hot topic, and it has remained in the top three on Weibo."
“What about places like Tieba, Douyin, and Zhihu?”
"It's working. The results will be available by tomorrow night at the latest."
"The topics of "Running Man", "Kuaiben", and "Open the Door" will be postponed for three to five days, so that the popularity can be seamlessly connected."
"Okay, I'll rearrange it in a minute."
"Is there any action on the other side?"
"No, since I sang the ending song of the drama at Dragon TV's New Year's Eve party, apart from a few leading actors posting stills on Weibo, there has been no other action."
"Huh, I guess it looks like it's useless, it's ruined."
…
Wang Cheng created a wave of popularity.
This time he became smarter. Instead of going into battle himself to challenge, he hid behind the scenes and instigated fans to fight.
On the Internet, "Knife" fans and "White Night" fans have formed a so-called "no one looks down on the other" situation, but the former is suppressing the latter, after all, the group is larger.
Wang Cheng walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out at the scenery, which was as beautiful as the ratings of "Knife".
The only disappointment was that Django didn't respond at all.
It's like you treat him as your opponent and he treats you as air, which makes people feel very unhappy.
——————
Why did Django respond?
You have helped me bring up the heat, why should I go to all that trouble?
He will be busy with serious matters now.
[Joined with iQiyi to shoot a police drama] This list is basically completed, only the last one is left [the theme song of the movie "Dragon City Flying General"].
This movie tells the story of the flying general Li Guang who defended the border against the Huns.
So.
When talking about borders, we have to mention the Great Wall.
The song that Jiang Ge first thought of was "A Bridge of Fate" sung by Tan Weiwei, the theme song from the movie "The Great Wall" shot by Zhang Yimou.
This song was popular on the short video platform for a while. In terms of its quality, the whole song is a traditional folk song of national instrumental music. The chorus uses the clapping sound effect commonly used in EDM to advance step by step. The singing style adopts the ups and downs of Tan Weiwei's Huayin Laoqiang. In addition, in the second paragraph, Leehom changed the traditional chords of the first paragraph into blues guitar cuts, which is very layered. The lyrics were written by Fang Wenshan, who specially studied poetry and rhyme. In short, it is a relatively high-quality Chinese style song.
The important thing is that the poem "Out of the Frontier" by Wang Changling is used, which coincides with the theme of the movie "Dragon City Flying General".
Then, Jiang Ge thought of another song, "Wanli City Will Never Fall", the theme song of the TV series "Heroes Huo Yuanjia", sung by Ye Zhentang.
This song is ambitious, appeals to public opinion, despises foreign invaders, boosts national prestige, is passionate and inspiring. After listening to it, it is exciting. Even though it was released in 1982, decades later, listening to it again, I still can't help but feel excited and heart-wrenching.
The seven words "The Great Wall Never Falls" and the emotions expressed in the song are also very consistent with the theme of the movie "Dragon City Flying General".
But...
These two songs have their own problems that need to be solved.
Qin Shiyue and Lin Yu are not suitable for singing "Fate Bridge". If they are forced to sing, Lin Yu is okay and can barely make it, but Qin Shiyue, she can't play the special transition and power of Tan Weiwei at all.
As for "The Great Wall Never Falls", this song is a Cantonese song, and on Blue Star, Xiangjiang culture has not yet become popular, and there will be certain limitations on the audience of the language.
"It's difficult."
Jiang Ge was in a dilemma.
Choose "Fate Bridge" and then find other singers to sing it?
Or choose "The Great Wall Never Falls" and bet that the audience can accept Cantonese songs?
Or choose a new song to fundamentally solve this problem?
Jiang Ge took a long breath and squeezed his eyebrows. He didn't rush to make a decision because he had more than two months to consider.
