Chapter 469 Damn!
In the invitation letter from Henan Provincial TV, Zhou Hao was given two program tasks.
One is a song and dance program, and the other is a stage play program similar to "Jiuzhoutong".
It was obvious that Henan Provincial TV was very impressed by the two programs he arranged.
Zhou Hao also readily agreed. It was just two programs and not difficult.
However, the theme of this year's Spring Festival Gala of Henan Provincial TV has obviously been influenced by his previous planning suggestions, and has begun to adopt a retro style in an all-round way, aiming to promote China's traditional culture.
Therefore, the programs here naturally have to be in line with its theme, and programs that are too modern cannot be included.
You have to think carefully about the decision.
While pondering the content of the program, he was also patiently waiting for the outcome of the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" incident.
Almost a week has passed, and the review results of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" are still not out, and the book is still banned.
He didn't care at first, but as time went on he did feel some pain.
Every day of ban will result in a huge loss of money!
Gan!
What makes him even more depressed is that he still doesn’t know who is behind this!
According to feedback from major novel websites, the IP addresses of these whistleblowers are basically all fake, and their real IP addresses are mostly from Southeast Asia and that Taiwan Island.
This also further confirmed Zhou Hao's guess that someone was behind the scenes.
However, at this point the clues were basically cut off. After all, it was not a police agency, so there was no way to go any further.
You want to call the police, but without any real evidence, they may not take it seriously...
It's a headache.
The only good news is that Lao Xie’s physical channels are not affected and can still be printed and sold in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
This result made Zhou Hao not even know whether he should be happy about it.
The transcendent status of Hong Kong is really hard to describe...
The most popular drama in Southeast Asia right now is not "Ghost Blows Out the Light" but "Nirvana in Fire" .
After the drama went south, it swept across Southeast Asia like a whirlwind. As long as it was within the radiation area of Confucian culture, there was no one who disliked the drama.
Firstly, there is a strong cultural and aesthetic identity, and secondly... the production of this drama is really excellent.
Compared with their own shoddy and petty works, this drama is simply a dimensionality reduction attack!
It’s just that the way this drama became popular in Southeast Asia is a bit strange - it was because of piracy.
After all, the purchasing power in most parts of Southeast Asia is relatively insufficient. Faced with the complicated membership system of Penguin Video, their response is simple and rude - get out, I'm watching pirated content!
Anyway, there are high-definition resources, you can watch it however you like. Except for the lack of barrage interaction, nothing else is affected!
Regarding this situation, Penguin rarely lost its mind and adopted the attitude of turning a blind eye.
First of all, I know it can't be sealed, so it's a waste of effort.
Secondly, we also know that piracy is not always a bad thing, especially it is of great help in popularizing products.
The fact that a certain Windows operating system can sweep the Chinese market is definitely due to its various "Tomato Garden" and "deep customization" features.
The fact is just as Penguin expected. With the help of the spread of piracy, "Nirvana in Fire" has become a phenomenal hit in Southeast Asia.
The social media platforms in the corresponding regions are full of posts praising and discussing the products, and various imitation makeup and COS are also flourishing.
This wave of COS trend has made some domestic e-commerce sellers a lot of money. The replicas of various costumes and makeup are selling like crazy. Not only domestic audiences buy, but also people from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and even Japan and South Korea have orders coming in...
The fact that a costume drama could become so popular is truly an eye-opener for the entire industry.
What made Zhou Hao a little nervous was that a TV station in the southern country of Yue actually sent him a copyright application for a remake...
After climbing over the wall and browsing through the production level of this TV station, Zhou Hao almost vomited out his overnight meal.
To be honest, in twenty years, those low-quality short plays produced by amateur teams may be better than the TV series produced by this TV station...
To say that it has the quality of a photo studio is already praising it.
If the remake rights of "Nirvana in Fire" are really handed over... you can tell with your toes that it will 100% be a black history.
What he didn't expect was that at the same time, Japan also sent a copyright application for a remake.
However, the drama they are going to remake is not "Nirvana in Fire", but "The Beginning", which he directed and acted in last year.
It has a big imagination, is short in length, the heroine is a young beautiful girl, and there are some middle school elements in the middle... Everything is very much in line with Japanese tastes, so it's no surprise that there is an idea for a remake.
However, the Japanese side wants to further compress this work and remake it into a movie.
As soon as he saw this, Zhou Hao felt like his PTSD was about to set in.
I remember that before his rebirth, he had watched a Japanese movie, which was also adapted from the well-known Chinese TV series "The Hidden Corner".
There is no need to elaborate on how wonderful the original drama is. Apart from the slightly flawed ending, the overall quality of the drama is quite solid.
However, the movie remake in Japan...it's hard to describe the impression.
Halfway through the film, he already felt physically uncomfortable.
The unique exaggerated acting skills of Japanese actors are very suitable for stage plays, and may not feel out of place in the atmosphere of their own scripts, but it seems particularly strange in this kind of remake.
It is obviously a very depressing and obscure work, but they managed to make it taste weird. To make an inappropriate analogy, it is like putting strawberry jam in mapo tofu and adding pineapple to Italian pizza.
Even on a certain platform, where worship of Japan is rampant, this movie almost fell into the failing range, which shows how bad it is.
So if "The Beginning" is handed over to them now, what will the final remake be like?
Will it also become some weird thing that doesn't fit in with the norm?
When Zhou Hao thought of this, his head ached.
However, a phone call from Peter Lam made him change his mind.
"Whether the filming is good or not is their business. What does it have to do with you?"
"And the worse their remakes are, isn't that a good thing for us? There has always been a voice saying that the level of Japanese and Korean dramas is far superior to ours. If they fail, doesn't that indirectly prove our strength?"
“And in essence, this is also a form of cultural export, isn’t it?”
It was this last sentence that directly touched Zhou Hao.
Yes, no matter how well the film is made, at least it is a cultural export.
Even if they shoot it badly, it can let Japanese audiences know that there is such an excellent web drama in China. Maybe some people will follow and watch it?
Come on, let me see what kind of remake Japan can produce!
