Chapter 51 Integrated TV Programs
Robert Downey Jr.'s appearance in "Two and a Half Men" was a coincidence, mainly because Adrian was not interested in starring Charlie Sheen in the TV series "Two and a Half Men". He still knew something. Charlie Xin's various bad things caused a lot of trouble for the crew. Although he played the role, although the producer gave him a lot of tolerance, he eventually swept him out. (Baidu search m, Rainbow Literature Network) M, but that is a matter of several seasons later, that character has become popular, although everyone thinks it is time to change actors, the ratings inevitably drop a lot.
So when Adrian decided to sever this from the source, Charlie Sheen was first eliminated after the production of this TV series. However, there must always be a suitable actor to play the leading role? So Robert Downey Jr. came into view.
Like most young actors, Robert Downey Jr. became arbitrarily after he became famous, especially after being nominated for an Oscar. He became more arrogant and became more unscrupulous in things such as drug use, speeding, and private home Wait, just arrested many times in 1996 alone, and because of breaking the probation rules multiple times, he ended up serving two months in prison for a total of 16 months.
Rao is so. He was still involved in the prisoner's battling in early 1998, and then released from prison for treatment due to a facial injury. He was released on parole until the end of July this year.
Although the relationship between the old Robert Downey and his son has been stumbling, as a father still cared about him, so he went around trying to find him a chance through contacts. Because Robert Downey was a former screenwriter for Mission Impossible, Adrian had some cooperation with him when he produced the first Mission Impossible movie, so he finally found him here .
Almost without thinking, Adrian decided to have Robert Downey Jr. play the role of Charlie Sheen in "Two and a Half Men", even though Downey Jr. had been in Charlie? There is not much difference between Xin, and many people in the circle have avoided him, thinking that he cannot cheer up again, but don't forget that Adrian knows how to develop in the future.
As long as Little Downie succeeds in detoxifying, and he has first-class acting skills, this investment is absolutely cost-effective. Sending charcoal in the snow will always be more grateful than the icing on the cake. Of course, proper beating is also necessary.
"I still remember when you got the Oscar nomination. You were so brave, Robert. At that time, I just got a little fame. Time passed so fast, I really didn't expect that the talented you would fall into today. To the point, it's really a shame. "Adrian said after a quaint after bringing Donnie Jr. to the seaside villa in Malibu.
"Life is always full of all kinds of temptations. It's easy to make mistakes when you're not clear." Little Danny sighed, his beard was clean and his clothes were neatly dressed, but a bit thin, His complexion was not very good, and his more than ten months of prison life obviously made him look back.
But it also made him grow a lot, so although Adrian talked a bit old-fashioned, he always maintained this respectful look, knowing that he was two or three years older than him. Of course, even if Downey Jr. did not dare to infer the character a few years ago, Adrian's identity was there, and like Solomon, they were similar in age to each other. But ten years ago, he was a little director. After being a media tycoon, how to straighten up.
"It's great to hear you say this. Although we often say that young people make mistakes and God will forgive them, there is a premise that he knows where he is wrong and is willing to correct it." Adrian looked He smiled and said, "I have checked the Los Angeles County Prison and you have performed well after being in prison. The brawl was involved in it. I decided to let you play a role in this TV series. In addition to what your father said, I think your desire for correction is also an important reason. I believe you should not let your father and me down, right? "
"No." Downey Jr. replied briefly, and when Adrian raised his father, a complex look appeared on his face.
"So you should accept some necessary arrangements?" Adrian asked immediately, and Downey Jr. didn't speak, and frowned after asking.
"I will let the company supervise your behavior, urge you to cooperate with the parole officer, make sure that you will not get drugs again, and supervise your participation in detoxification activities." Adrian spread his hand and then did not give the opportunity to speak for Downey Continued: "These will be written into the contract. As long as you do things as required, we will also endorse for you. In addition, if you stay in a hotel, you must make arrangements."
The young Donny who held his dissatisfaction frowned slightly again when he heard the following sentence. He was not a fool and could not hear Adrian's words, but who would target himself? Adrian couldn't answer this question either. He would make this kind of news mainly based on his memory, that is, the incident in which Downey Jr. was imprisoned for drug possession as early as 00.
Downey Jr. who was out of prison at that time also participated in a TV series-which is one of the reasons Adrian considered him-but one day after checking in at a hotel in Palm Springs, the police received an anonymous report call It is said that there was a large amount of cocaine and stability in Little Downey's room, and the police did find a lot after going there. Although Little Downey argued that it was carried under the influence of drugs, he was still charged.
Some criminals caught the current situation, and the work just arrived was naturally gone. After being released on parole again, they were found to be walking barefoot on the streets of Culver City, so they were called to the police again for suspected drug abuse. Although he only stayed for a few hours this time, some of the crews who started to contact him also retreated, and then he decided to spend two years in detoxifying, and then slowly stood up again.
Let ’s not talk about Downey ’s question. This anonymous phone call is very interesting. If the call was made by a hotel person, the media will not mention it, but the anonymous phone call is included from beginning to end, including the police. He deliberately targeted him, and he didn't offend people in the 90s.
So Adrian reminded him here, and urged him to end drug treatment by endorsement. If Downey made another mistake on this, the end result would be even more miserable than the previous life. You know, Adrian himself invited and arranged the contract, and if he did something, it would mean that Adrian's vision was not good, and the consequences could be imagined.
If Downey Jr. has a strong desire to turn around, he will agree even if he has not experienced the next two unlucky incidents. Of course, he can't refuse, it is his freedom, but some movies will be with him in the future. No matter what, Adrian has no interest in cultivating non-self. In Hollywood, no one can't be replaced.
In the end, Robert Downey Jr. agreed, and "Two and a Half Men" was also arranged in the fall. Adrian who had seen the sample film was quite satisfied with his performance. At the same time, he also told the crew to pay close attention to Downey. It was one thing for him to mess around. It was another thing for someone to deliberately do something. If it was the latter, Adrian would let some people know.
In addition, there are several TV shows to be released, one of which is "Double-sided Female Spy" starring Hu Kaili. Although "Pilijiaowa 2" has been filmed and will be released about next year, and she has good relations with Drew and Cameron, she still agreed to invite to appear in the TV series.
Hu Kaili knew her own position very well. Innate conditions had determined her long-term development in the film, so she did not resist the role of the TV series, let alone. As for whether starring a Chinese actress will affect the ratings, Adrian didn't take it seriously, let alone let Hu Kaili and Reeves have only a quarter of Chinese ancestry, and "Double Sided Spy" was arranged on the cable The channel is broadcast, and the cable channel is viewed after subscription. Regardless of whether other channel users of this channel like it, it must also be watched.
At best, the time period is slightly worse, but a good date can be adjusted. If Tuesday is not possible, then Wednesday is good. These two days have always been the peak ratings. If a TV series is moved to Friday, it is generally equivalent to Announcing that it will be chopped or ended. In order to get a good time for American Idol, Charlize argued for a long time at a high-level meeting.
Many people think that although this draft show has potential, after all, it has not yet been tested by the audience, and there are already enough high-rating programs, and there is no need to make that space for this show. But Charlize came up with the election data in full swing and several executives debated one by one. The informative materials and sharp words made them almost speechless.
"It's not just about the success or failure of this show, but also our enterprising spirit! Gentlemen, we can develop to this day and still stand even in the face of losses. It is based on continuous experimentation, innovation and discovery, not on Pin your hopes on a few high-rated programs! "It is said that Charlize concluded with this passage.
Although these are slightly exaggerated, in conjunction with Charlize's passionate tone and the strong temperament that has always been shown, several senior executives at the meeting were calmed down, so they finally made a compromise and can properly part of the game. Put it on Wednesday, then consider whether to put the final on Tuesday based on ratings.
"Your secretary assistant is an amazing woman, Ed." The current Paul Pollard told Adrian at a reception.
"I'm just telling the truth." Charlize said so.
"How did you train her?" Crowder was curious.
"She did a good job." Ivanka pretended not to care.
Anyway, now I know that the new female director of the planning department is a very powerful and powerful woman. Several other executives were still angry after she retorted-they knew who was standing behind her. For one reason, Charlize didn't lose their face while refuting it. It was also a reason-coupled with the vigorous style, the planning department was operated very efficiently, so the title of "Ice Queen" began to spread slowly.
Okay, let ’s return to the topic of
Double Sided Female Spy
. As long as a suitable time period is arranged, and the TV series itself is also very attractive, the ratings may not be high at first, but it should slowly come later. Fire up.
As we all know, American TV series only have one episode per week. For many TV series, it is necessary to set up enough suspense for each episode and the end of each season. And this "double-faced female spy" did a good job at this point. Adrian remembers that someone in the past had commented that before a science fiction TV series, this TV series was the most brain-burning, with various conspiracy and small conspiracy series. Putting it all together makes it hard to figure out what is true and what is false.
This is actually a very good way to compose a story. Anyway, as long as a conspiracy is to be fully exposed, a larger conspiracy is enough. As long as you have a good grasp of this degree, once the ratings are down, you can finish it or cut it off. no problem. There is a saying that doesn't matter. As long as you boldly underestimate the IQ of Americans, you can succeed.
Although there are many programs with high ratings now, Adrian has also assigned some good episodes to cbs and wb TV networks, and because this fall, in addition to "American Idol", there are "Apprentices" and "Flyover" also has to be screened, so some adjustments have been made to the reality show, such as upgrading "Millionaire" to "King of the Wise" and handing it over to the wireless station, but there are still more programs with higher ratings. it is good.
With the rapid development of cable stations, apart from tbs and espn of tbs, a lot of them have been separated. Needless to say, cnn news. Home channels, ladies channels with Hirst shares, youth channels, etc., require a lot of Of high-quality shows to fill them. For example, the Home Channel is aimed at the Disney Channel, so it will soon launch "New Growth Trouble", and the starring role is Shirley-Hillary Duff who has performed in the "Resident Evil" movie version! Another example is that tnt is aimed at, so after snatching "City", "Underworld", "Below Six Feet" and "Brotherhood", they dug up Larry David to make "Suppress Passion".
Larry David is the writer of "Song Fei Chuan". After "Song Fei Chuan" ended in 1998, he switched to work as a film writer. Although the power of film writers is not as great as that of TV writers, his influence is much greater than that of TV writers. The director of the screenwriter union has far more screenwriters than TV screenwriters. Unfortunately, he is good at conceiving small stories rather than long-form scripts, so he has been running into a wall. So Adrian, who has combed the more well-known TV series, found him, and should have been here. The "Suppression of Passion" that appeared at the time was produced.
Similar to "Song Fei Biography", "Suppression of Enthusiasm" is also a kind of comedy mode comedy, and it is also Larry David as Larry David, a semi-real actor life shown in this, because the investment is small, so he is part-time The screenwriter and starring also bear the burden of production. As long as he can maintain a consistent level, there should be no problem in the production of the last eight seasons like "Song Fei Chuan".
In last year's ratings list, the programs occupied six positions in the top ten, which has greatly surpassed becoming the first of the four major television networks. With the rapid development of cable television stations, it will enter a scuffle situation at most in a few years. Even with his support at that time, his own TV station can still throw other people far away, but it is also necessary to consider the situation of arrogance-now it is already under consideration, otherwise "Intern" will not be given to cbs And give "office situation".
Therefore, it will simply push the peak at this time. First, it will make you want to increase cohesion, second, you will fully demonstrate your strength, and then slowly back down, and continue to maintain a certain advantage.
That's all for the TV series. As for the film, the later stages of "Bone in Winter" and "Never Compromise" are almost near the end. They are both small-cost movies and do not require the cg effect like the Lord of the Rings. Especially "Bone in Winter", with only two million investment, the plot is relatively simple. After Natalie came over and dubbed some shots, basically there was only propaganda work left. "Never Compromise" may take more time, but it is not a big deal. Anyway, as long as it can be released at the end of the year, Adrian still has the energy to do something else, such as the remaining two chapters of The Matrix The production time is on the agenda.
After working overtime in an animation studio in Japan, the first animation that tells how the robot rises was broadcast on TV in advance ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Although there is only one episode, it is enough to make the already haunting "Hacker" Fans of the Empire cheer up. After the first movie was released in 1998, countless fans were looking forward to the next two, even if they already knew a lot of the plot through the novel, but still very much expected, not to mention Adrian himself said that part of the movie version The content and the novel version will be different, especially the ending.
What the fans did not expect was that in the following year, Adrian went to New Zealand and spent all his time shooting the Lord of the Rings. I can imagine how disappointed they were. Adrian also knew that this matter could not be delayed for too long, and that as Monica grew older, the pairing with Reeves would be a bit out of place.
However, this year because of the production of two films, although the investment is very small, "Matrix" has to be filmed with the next two songs, he did not want to reflect on the days in New Zealand, so he moved to next year. The time for next year is just right, although another film will be shot first, some preparatory preparations can be completed this year, such as the rehabilitation training of Reeves and others, or the layout of some prop venues-don't worry, there is time.
So when the person in charge came over and asked which highway to communicate with the Transportation Bureau, Adrian waved aggressively: "Find a place to build a brand new section dedicated to filming!"
