Chapter 196 Sketches
The introduction of the person at the dinner is very particular. After the introduction, the audience will generally understand what kind of person he is.
For example, the introduction to Wang Zhongjun includes the following information: This person has a background in life abroad. If you want to enter this circle, you have a relationship with me in the army, and you have a good relationship with me.
Being able to go abroad means that this person has a way, and having a relationship in the army means that this person has a backstage.
By saying this, Wang Zhongjun's identity has been invisibly raised. Those who have been abroad and children from the courtyard will be taken seriously, and at least they will not be looked down upon.
Everyone greeted Wang Zhongjun politely. It was impossible to be so enthusiastic when we met for the first time, so we still have to put on this airs.
Lin Zixuan and Wang Zhongjun exchanged business cards and were very interested in this person.
"This is Mr. Lin, a well-known figure in the Beijing film and television industry. He has produced many popular TV series. You don't know when you are abroad. As long as Mr. Lin is willing to help, you don't have to worry about your business." The person in charge of introducing Wang Zhongjun said enthusiastically.
In this dinner, Lin Zixuan was one of the main characters. It was a bit exaggerated to say that. In the capital, this is called promising people.
"Mr. Lin, you will need to take care of yourself in the future." Wang Zhongjun said sincerely.
"Everyone helps each other. Which business is mainly done by Mr. Wang's advertising company?" Lin Zixuan asked.
"I have been in the United States for five years and have just returned. I am not familiar with the domestic market. I am going to make an advertising magazine first to see the results. If Mr. Lin has a good way, he must introduce it to me. I can't ask for it." Wang Zhongjun responded.
Wang Zhongjun used to be a soldier, and later worked as a fine art design in a publishing house. Five years ago, he went to the State University of New York to study for media majors.
This time when he returned to China to start a business, he wanted to learn from the American advertising model, run an advertising magazine, and mail the magazine to the embassies and major hotels in Beijing. People living in these places have strong consumption power.
This is to place advertisements for specific target groups, which are more professional than those who advertise randomly.
"Mr. Lin went to the United States to film a TV series, which is the movie "The People in Beijing in New York". You may have seen it in New York." The person next to him said in an active atmosphere.
"I know that drama was very popular when it was broadcast in the United States a few days ago. I didn't expect it to be filmed by Mr. Lin. Unfortunately, I didn't meet Mr. Lin at that time, otherwise we would have known each other long ago." Wang Zhongjun said with a regretful look on his face.
"We live in a small town on Long Island, which is still far from the center of New York. New York is too big." Lin Zixuan sighed.
"I rented a house in Brooklyn, New York at that time, and went to school while working. I was so busy that Mr. Lin's TV series was very good. I wanted to return to China after watching that drama." Wang Zhongjun praised.
Wang Zhongjun is good at finding topics, talks about life abroad with Lin Zixuan, and praises Lin Zixuan.
No matter whether these words are true or false, they will never be boring.
At the dinner party, Wang Zhongjun responded appropriately, spoke and drank very readily, and knew how to be sensible.
Lin Zixuan could see that Wang Zhongjun was accepted by this circle, but this circle is second-rate in the Beijing entertainment industry, and it can only be said to be the threshold for entering the entertainment industry.
Lin Zixuan can't get into those top circles either.
After dinner, he drove to pick up Mu Shanshan.
Since Mu Shanshan agreed to host the Spring Festival Gala, she has become obviously busy and no longer commuted to and from get off work on time. She needs to cooperate with the schedule of the Spring Festival Gala program team. Every year's Spring Festival Gala is a war without seeing the smoke of gunpowder.
The actors worked hard to prepare for the program to appear on the Spring Festival Gala, but the duration of the program in the Spring Festival Gala is limited, so it is impossible for every program to be available.
Even in the final rehearsal stage, some programs will be shot down.
When he arrived at China TV Station, Lin Zixuan was waiting aside. Before Mu Shanshan finished her work, he saw a list of programs that had not yet been confirmed on Mu Shanshan's desk.
At this time, the Spring Festival Gala program team had just begun to conduct preliminary selection of the program and had not yet entered the re-selecting stage.
Lin Zixuan's heart moved and he thought of an idea.
He can write a sketch for the actors in "The Story of the Cooking Class" and let them perform on the Spring Festival Gala.
This sketch is very simple. It means that on New Year's Eve, six kitchen soldiers stationed on remote islands could not go home for the New Year, so they could only call their families to pay New Year's greetings, and each of them had only five minutes.
The topic is on these five-minute phone calls. Everyone's reaction is different. The phone calls will be serialized and the wrong phone calls will be made.
This sketch reflects the love for the soldiers stationed in the frontier for their families and countries, and is very positive.
Lin Zixuan wrote this sketch to give the TV series a pre-stop.
If this sketch can be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, then the review will be much looser after the filming of "The Story of the Cooking Class". If this sketch can be recognized and praised by the audience, it means that the military-themed TV series can also be appropriately comedic.
Doing this can not only increase the success rate of the TV series, but also promote it in advance, killing two birds with one stone.
He lay on Mu Shanshan's table and began to write the sketch script according to the memory in his mind.
"What are you doing?" Mu Shanshan finished her work and said strangely when she saw Lin Zixuan's appearance.
"I'm writing a sketch and I'm going to the Spring Festival Gala." Lin Zixuan said with confidence.
If such a positive-energy sketch cannot be on the Spring Festival Gala, it would be unreasonable.
Besides, every year the Spring Festival Gala takes good care of the programs selected by the troops and will not be easily eliminated. This is a matter of principle.
The Air Affairs Center belongs to the military unit. Once this sketch is sent to the Spring Festival Gala program team, it is basically a foregone conclusion.
"Let me see what you wrote?" Mu Shanshan said curiously.
Picking up the manuscript written by Lin Zixuan, Mu Shanshan looked at it. The name of the sketch was very ordinary, called "Call".
The quality of the whole sketch is very high and touching. Through phone calls on New Year's Eve, thousands of households in China were contacted, and the troops and the people were also connected, showing the friendship between the military and the people.
Mu Shanshan was not surprised that Lin Zixuan wrote such a sketch. She was surprised that there was another song below.
"Dear Mom and Dad, are you guys? Are you very busy at work now? Are you in good health? My army is pretty good now. Don't worry too much about your parents. Although I rarely write letters, I actually miss home very much..."
"Dad goes to work every day? If you are not strict, don't go. You have to do revolutionary work all your life, and it's time to take a break. I bought a sweater for my mother, so don't be reluctant to wear it. My son was not very obedient before, but now he is sensible and has grown up..."
The simple lyrics actually made Mu Shanshan cry.
This is what Lin Zixuan is planning to let the actors who performed the sketch perform the sketch at the end of the sketch.
A sketch that calls home on New Year’s Eve, plus such a song, will definitely become tear gas on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, touching audiences across the country. (To be continued.)
