Chapter 573 Shortness is the original sin

Old Friends Bar.

Adam's words made Joey feel relieved.

The risks here have always been Joey’s biggest concern.

He did not forget the painful experience of his role as a handsome doctor who was suddenly killed, and then he could not find a job for a long time. Finally, he put down his "status" and started acting from an unknown supporting role again.

That's it.

Because of the interruption of acting career.

He even cut off medical insurance.

So much so that he had a hernia and couldn't bear the pain, but because the self-paid surgery was too expensive, he dared not go to the hospital for treatment. He had to wait until he found a job again and renewed medical insurance, and then he had the surgery.

That sour and refreshing, unforgettable.

"Joy, is it for fame or profit that you dream of being Al Pacino?"

Adam was a little concerned about the last single dog in his old friends circle.

Emmm.

Although he was recognized by Chandler and others in the circle of friends and is also single now, when Joey and the others talked about single dogs, they did not count Adam at all.

"I don't know either."

Joey said blankly: "It should be all."

"Um."

Adam nodded and said, "It's very honest. Since you are pursuing your dreams in the entertainment industry for fame and fortune, then I don't like you to take the Al Pacino road."

"Why?"

Joey said in surprise: "You may not know that Al Pacino is a senior idol in our entertainment industry. Many people dream of becoming the next Al Pacino for life."

"That's the mind is solidified."

Adam reminded: "You are Joey, not Al Pacino, aren't you? Besides, everyone else wants to do this, why do you have to be the same as others? You are Joey Tribiani, and you should find the best way for you."

“The best way for me?”

Joey said in a daze: "What road?"

"Of course it's the American drama road."

Adam smiled and said, "I know that in your circle, movie actors don't like TV actors. TV actors are extremely envious of movie actors and always feel inferior.

But is this really the case?

In terms of investment and production, movies are indeed far superior to TV series. In a short period of time, the fame and fortune brought to movie actors are indeed far superior to TV series.

But you didn't notice it.

A popular American drama can be filmed all the time, telling the protagonists' personalities and growth from various aspects. This is simply a vivid and legendary biography.

Can the movie be done with that little time?

After ten years, twenty years, newly grown audiences will look at the beautifully produced movies back then. They just think that the picture effect is too poor. Who is the main actor?

After checking, he was very popular back then, and then he said oh and threw it away.

Most of them are too lazy to check.

No matter how superb the acting skills of the movie actors are, the sides and dimensions that can be displayed are seriously limited by the plot and duration.

Sometimes, shortness is original sin.

What about the super long hit classic American drama?

One inch long and one inch stronger!

The duration is sufficient, the plot is rich and realistic (taken from many hot events of that year). After ten years, twenty years, and even generation after generation, it is still very attractive.

It is used as a historical textbook to show the characteristics of that era and is also a good video material.

When the next generation sees it, they can see three-dimensional characters in their minds, and they even think that this is a person who has truly lived.

Many people are interested in paying attention to the stories of these people.

Is this kind of name a big hit movie star?

"Ah, it seems to be."

Phoebe shouted: "It turns out that there are such benefits to filming TV series!"

"That's a classic American drama."

Joey shook his head.

"No."

Adam smiled and said, "Classic American dramas are not good yet. It is best to be classic sitcoms. Humor and funny things will be much slower when the process of fading outdated.

Moreover, classic sitcoms are originally about the daily lives of the protagonists, and they are particularly good at enriching the three-dimensional images of the characters from all angles.

This is a typical character-driven plot.

This is something that other classic American dramas that drive characters do not have.

I have only said that classic American dramas can bring you a name far beyond movies from a wider perspective.

So what about the profit?"

"profit?"

Joey was stunned: "You won't say that acting in classic American dramas can bring me far more benefits than movies, right? This is impossible!"

"Why is it impossible?"

Adam asked retortly: "In the entertainment industry, fame and fortune are bound, and being famous is beneficial. After acting in classic American dramas, it has brought you a wider reputation in a wider time. Why can't it bring a wider profit?"

"But……"

Joey still felt something was wrong, and it really broke his traditional thinking.

"How many aspects do you have to earn?"

Adam asked.

"There are mainly these three."

Joey said.

"No, you forgot about the film and television."

Adam reminded: "What we are talking about now is all about fame and fortune, which is the most important thing.

Movie pay, advertising, and commercial performances are all temporary. Only by sharing the film and television peripherals closely around classic American dramas can you continuously provide you with a rich income."

"Around the world? Stop joking, this is impossible."

Joey smiled: "This is the fat that film and television companies value the most. How can it be distributed to actors?"

"Why not?"

Adam also laughed: "Imagine a classic sitcom that starts broadcasting, and all viewers like those starring actors. After a few seasons, changing one person may cause protests, and the ratings plummeted. If two of them are replaced, it will be difficult to play. But what if several starring actors join forces to force the film and television company to discuss the share of the surroundings?"

"hiss!"

Joey took a deep breath: "In that case, either the film will be broken or the film and television company will give in, and it is most likely the latter, because no one will be unable to get along with the interests. If all the starring actors are not in the act, the drama will be ruined, and the subsequent peripherals will be empty talk."

"But the premise is that several leading actors can unite."

Chandler shook his head and said, "In this case, film and television companies generally divide and disintegrate. Once one of them is told, the rest of them will definitely fall apart. Human nature is selfish and it is very difficult!"

"This requires someone to be eye-catching."

Adam smiled and said, "Joey can tell everyone the truth, and even reduce the salary to unite everyone. Believe me, the temporary salary cut and the long-term annual share of the surrounding area will be completely worth mentioning.

A classic sitcom, with annual operating income that you can't imagine.

Joey, you fantasize about becoming Al Pacino. At the beginning, I guess he paid tens of millions of dollars in a movie?

But if you follow this method and tie a classic sitcom, even if you don’t work, your share of the surroundings will be a big hit of the hard work of those movie bosses who make you envious of this year.

And they are still lying down and they are blowing up every year.

That is the real winner in life!”

"Impossible?"

Everyone looked over and were stunned.

"Trust me, that's right."

Adam smiled.

The future is twenty years later. Each of the six friends of Friends can still get a 20 million US dollars a year. How dare you imagine it?

That's it.

How does Al Pacino compare with Joy?
