Chapter 41 Chapter 41
Jiang Jianyue is a UP host in the film and television area of C Station. She is famous in the station for her unique style of complaining.
In addition to complaining, she occasionally accepts some videos for fun.
However, she has principles when accepting videos for fun, especially for this kind of fan of film and television recommendations. Even if it is for fun, she will clearly point out the advantages and disadvantages, which is quite ruthless. Her
complaints are very accurate, and the traffic is frighteningly high, making many film and television parties love and hate her.
On this day, Jiang Jianyue was processing business information as usual, and suddenly saw a message that wanted her to recommend a costume suspense drama called "The Secret of the Six Doors".
Jiang Jianyue narrowed her eyes.
She had some impression of this drama. Half a month ago, this drama came out of nowhere and suddenly began to be promoted everywhere. There were also many hot searches on Weibo. It was obvious that a lot of resources were invested to build momentum for the broadcast of the drama.
This kind of viral marketing is very annoying.
She had a dinner with several UPs from the film and television area a while ago, and everyone talked about this drama and joked that the material for complaints in the next period of time has already appeared.
After all, the title of this drama exudes the temperament of a terrible drama.
So, who gave the publicity party the courage to dare to ask her to eat for free.
This actually aroused Jiang Jianyue's interest. She told the other party directly that even if she was eating for free, she would give a fair and objective evaluation and asked them if they could accept it.
Unexpectedly, the other party accepted it without hesitation, and even directly paid the deposit, as if he was afraid that she would regret it.
Jiang Jianyue: ???
Is this really the publicity party?
Could it be that they have a grudge against this drama and are deliberately trying to discredit it?
Jiang Jianyue became more and more curious, but the premiere time is at 8 o'clock tonight, so she simply searched for the trailer to watch.
The trailer starts with a lively picture of the Ming Dynasty market. Although it is only three seconds long, because the scenery is real and the details are exquisite, it brings people into that era in an instant.
Jiang Jianyue immediately became interested.
Then, with the sound of lively music, a ferocious-looking man rushed out from the alley, and behind him, the red-dressed female hero chased him relentlessly: "Stop!"
A close-up pause, and her name appeared next to her - Rong Yu.
This chase scene was full of dangers, but just when she was about to catch the man, the man set his eyes on a horse on the side of the road. As long as he rode on the horse, the female hero would probably never be able to catch him again.
At this moment, the camera turned to the rich young man on the upper floor of the restaurant next door. He was waving a folding fan in his hand, smiling gently, and his name appeared next to him - Yu Changyan.
However, the next second, he took out a string of copper coins and threw them directly. Countless copper coins "clanged" between the villain and the horse. For a moment, people rushed forward to pick up the money and blocked the villain's way.
Rong Yu's face was delighted, and he was about to reach out to grab him.
Seeing that he could not escape, the villain was so bold that he wanted to grab a lone child as a hostage.
But as soon as his hand reached out, a piece of sword sheath appeared from the side, "snap" and separated him. Then a man in black clothes and a cold face appeared and fought with the villain.
The same close-up pause again, and his name appeared - Xiao Nanyuan.
Xiao Nanyuan was a skilled martial artist, and the villain was no match for him. He took out a bag of lime powder from his arms and threw it at him. Xiao Nanyuan leaned back, avoiding the lime, but gave the villain a chance to escape.
However, before the villain could feel proud for a second, he was caught by a net that fell from the sky. Rong Yu tied him up neatly, and then slyly bowed to Yu Changyan and Xiao Nanyuan who were walking over: "Thank you, both of you."
Yu Changyan waved his fan and smiled.
Xiao Nanyuan on the other side sighed helplessly.
In just one minute, a complete plot clearly shows the personalities of the three protagonists.
Jiang Jianyue sat up straightened up consciously.
She vaguely felt that this drama might not be the terrible drama she thought.
Then the camera turned, and the three people changed into the clothes of the Six Gates Constables and received an order to investigate the murder of a court official. Then, in the rhythm of music full of tension and suspense, the camera quickly switched to combine the main storyline with the exciting shots. There was even a joke in the middle, which made people feel relaxed, but then quickly lifted up again.
At the end, the music paused, and the sharp blade slashed, splashing blood on the plaque of the Six Doors. Then the background slowly turned black, and the three words "Six Doors" emerged. At the same time, blood fell, leaving the two words "Secrets", forming the title of the play - The Secret of the Six Doors.
At this point, Jiang Jianyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She never thought that this short trailer of more than three minutes would contain so much information, with suspense and laughter, which made people's hearts surge.
She immediately developed infinite curiosity about this drama. The only hope was that this drama was not a trailer scam. If the drama could be as good as the trailer, it would definitely be a hit. Thinking
of this, she quickly sent a message to her friends group: [Is there anyone who wants to watch "The Secret of the Six Doors" together tonight? It seems interesting. 】
Group member: 【Hahahaha, are you going to start a team building for UP masters in the film and television area? No way, is this drama so bad? 】
Jiang Jianyue realized that her words were ambiguous, and quickly explained: 【It’s not the kind of interesting that’s bad. I just watched the trailer and I think it’s pretty good. 】
Group member 1: 【??? 】
Group member 2: 【The Secret of the Six Doors? Pretty good? Are you under a spell? 】
Jiang Jianyue couldn’t make sense of anything she said, so she just posted the trailer of "The Secret of the Six Doors" to the group.
After a while.
Group member 1: 【Fuck!!! It’s really interesting, I mean in a positive way]
Group member 2: [The trailer is good, but it’s not uncommon for dramas to be made into shit. I’m still not optimistic about it, but it has piqued my interest. I’ll binge-watch the drama tonight +1]
Group member 3: [Binding the drama +2]
Group member 4: [Although I don’t know what you are talking about, I’ve been free lately, so I’ll binge-watch it too!]
...
Soon, it was eight o’clock in the evening.
Jiang Jianyue opened Tiancheng Video and clicked on the first episode of "The Secret of the Six Doors".
The story begins with a nursery rhyme that was circulated in the streets. That night, a criminal inspector died at home, and his death was tragic, exactly the same as the metaphor in the nursery rhyme.
Immediately afterwards, a governor of the Ministry of Civil Affairs also died in the same way in his outer room. A few days later, a clerk of the Metropolitan Censorate also died.
In just one month, three court officials died, and after investigation, there was no relationship between the three. If there must be a connection, it was that their ranks were gradually rising.
The criminal inspector of the ninth rank, the governor of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the eighth rank, and the clerk of the Metropolitan Censorate of the seventh rank.
If this pattern continues, wouldn't the next person to die be an official of the sixth rank?
For a time, the court and the public were shocked, and people were in panic.
The emperor handed the case to the Six Gates.
It is not until this time that the protagonist Xiao Nanyuan officially appears.
He is a martial arts expert, upright and honest, and has good popularity in the Six Gates, but no one is willing to partner with him because it is too tiring to partner with him, because this person is only focused on work, and it is common for him to sleep in the open air, and he is not flexible.
Xiao Nanyuan has long been accustomed to it and does not mind, so he goes on his own. However, in the process of investigating the case, he accidentally meets the female hero Rong Yu, and the two get to know each other.
Rong Yu seems to be impulsive and hot-tempered, but in fact she is as careful as a hair and can always find some hidden clues.
In the process of getting along, Rongyu gradually found that Xiao Nanyuan was old-fashioned, so she always liked to tease him. The two of them fought and quarreled all the way, following clues to a bandit camp.
The two sneaked into the bandit camp, but found a rich young man who was tied up and blindfolded in the woodshed.
As soon as Jiang Jianyue saw him, she guessed that this was Yu Changyan in the trailer.
I don’t know why, Yu Changyan’s character is obviously not as distinct as Rongyu and Xiao Nanyuan, but Jiang Jianyue’s impression of him is the most profound.
Sure enough, the two untied Yu Changyan’s rope and the bandage on his eyes, and asked him to find out that he was the son of a wealthy family in the city. He was kidnapped by bandits when he returned home from worshiping his ancestors, and was waiting for his family to send a ransom.
After the two rescued Yu Changyan, they continued to investigate, but the clue this time was in the city's Treasure Club. To get in, they had to rely on money, but these two were so poor that they could only stare blankly.
At the critical moment, Yu Changyan made a gorgeous appearance, waving the gold-painted folding fan in his hand, and someone directly carried two large boxes of silver over.
The first episode ended here, and Jiang Jianyue couldn't wait to click on the next episode.
A few hours later, Jiang Jianyue finally finished watching the first four episodes, but she was still not satisfied, and she wanted to shake the sweet orange video to spit out the next episodes.
Only then did she remember the friend group. When she opened it, she was shocked by the unread messages. In just a few hours, she had chatted out seven or eight hundred messages.
[It's so good!!! The actors are great! The makeup is great! The scenery is great! Most importantly, the story is amazing!! Oh my god! That twist almost made me gasp, this is the suspense drama I want to watch!!!]
[Rongyu is my goddess! She is beautiful and smart! Finally, it's not the heroine who is responsible for the trouble, but the hero is responsible for the mystery! Rongyu's observation is amazing! Moreover, all the plots are linked together, and the reasoning is so solid! As an audience, I finally feel respected!]
[Jiang Hanjing's acting is good, he has the flavor of a righteous hero. But what surprised me the most was Yu Changyan! WTF!! The scene where he waved a fan and had someone carry two boxes of silver on stage, I was completely fascinated by him! 】
【I searched for the actor who played him, and his name was Qin Wen. It seemed that he was still a newcomer, and this was his first drama! 】
【Wow!! He has such acting skills in his first drama, he has a bright future! 】
...
Jiang Jianyue watched it all the way and found that almost everyone was praising "The Secret of the Six Doors". The few who questioned it were also discussing the plot or questioning some settings, but after checking, they found that these settings were not made up, but actually happened in history.
Jiang Jianyue just made a bubble, then closed the chat software and went to concentrate on writing the script.
She wrote thousands of words proudly, and then found that these thousands of words were all exaggerations.
Of course, this does not mean that the drama has no flaws. In fact, if you really want to find them, you can find some.
But is it necessary?
As a UP host who complains about movies and TV, she seems to enjoy scolding, but isn't she disappointed with the lack of quality of domestic movies and TV dramas in recent years?
"The Secret of the Six Doors" has flaws, but compared with its solid script and sincere production, these flaws are no longer important.
Jiang Jianyue hesitated for only a moment before deciding.
No changes! Just record it as it is now.
Recording, dubbing, editing... She was busy all night and finally edited this video. After clicking upload, she went to bed, completely unaware of how much trouble this video had caused.
-As
a top streamer in the film and television comment area, as soon as UP host Jiang Xinjianyue posts a video, many fans come to watch it.
[Jiang Jiang has been surprisingly diligent recently! Let me see, emmmmmm... it's really a meal]
[Hahaha, it's a good meal, it's a great meal, I just like those film and television companies who pay money and get scolded at the same time]
[Wait, something's wrong, it's been six minutes, and you're still exaggerating? Could it be that someone has stolen your account? ]
[Complaints have turned into embarrassing exaggerations? ? 】
【Alas, Jiang Xin Jian Yue has also fallen, and the last piece of pure land in the film and television area is gone】
【@Jiang Xin Jian Yue, I followed you because you dared to speak the truth, but now it’s really meaningless, I’m no longer a fan】
【No matter what you say about making money, your attitude will not change. I still admire you. It turns out that you are all the same in front of money, ugh! 】
【Although, I heard that the plot seems interesting, I want to watch it...】
【I’m eager to go and try poison...】
【It’s been 20 minutes, have the brothers and sisters who tried poison come back? 】
【Fuck, I have to say, this drama is quite good! Okay, I won’t say anymore, I’ll continue to watch】
【Is it true? It’s not a water army, right? 】
【I'm not a naive person, this is a really good drama that is ruined by its title, the plot is interesting, with big twists and turns, and ups and downs. The only shortcoming is that there are too few plots! I wish I could finish watching it all in one day!! 】
【You are a level 6 account, I believe you, I will go for it too! 】
…
In addition to Jiang Xin Jianyue, many UP hosts in the film and television area also watched it, but not as hard as she did. However, everyone spontaneously posted on Weibo.
The establishment of this alternative group in the film and television area caused a stir immediately, and various doubts and fans who had already watched the show were torn apart.
Soon, hot searches such as #六扇门秘事好好#, #六扇门秘事一个芇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇劇# directly dominated the list.
Many people were attracted to watch "六扇门秘事".
For a while, the traffic of Tiancheng Video skyrocketed.
Jin Shiheng walked into the office yawning.
He stayed up late to watch the game last night and went to bed in the early morning. When he walked into the office, he remembered that he had forgotten something.
But when he saw the poster of "The Secret of Six Doors" hanging in the corridor, he suddenly remembered that last night was the day when "The Secret of Six Doors" was first broadcast, and he was a little annoyed.
But it shouldn't affect the result.
During this period of time, he has been working hard for this.
All publicity resources are indeed configured according to A-level, but he still did some tricks.
First, the marketing method was relatively rough, and then it was promotion. He deliberately selected one or two UP hosts who were relatively strong and could tell the truth, and through their mouths, completely ruined the reputation of "The Secret of Six Doors".
Finally, he also bought the relatively stiff hot searches for the premiere last night, which were obviously bought by water army at a glance.
These methods seem to be fine on the surface, but if you look into it carefully, they are all problems.
However, when "The Secret of the Six Doors" is actually broadcast and completely ruins its reputation with ugliness, all the responsibilities will be on this drama and Sun Hongfei who signed the promotion plan.
No one will care whether there are any problems with the promotion of this drama.
By then, Sun Hongfei will definitely be demoted and have his salary reduced, and he will completely lose the trust of President Gu because of this flattery.
And he will seize this opportunity and completely take over.
With his thoughtfulness, President Gu will definitely forget about Sun Hongfei soon.
By then, he can rely on President Gu's thigh to get promoted and get a raise, and reach the peak of his life.
Jin Shiheng has considered almost all the problems and thinks that this plan is perfect.
Unless "The Secret of the Six Doors" is very good, so good that it can break all prejudices.
Thinking of this, Jin Shiheng was shaken for a moment.
But is this possible?
He thought of the suffocatingly ugly project book.
Even the project book is so bad, how can the drama be filmed well?
So, he was completely relieved.
He hummed a song and opened Weibo casually, and then his eyes suddenly became straight.
The first hot search was #The Secret of the Six Doors is good#
He clicked on it, but saw that it was not the stiff water army words he thought, but a series of true and emotional reviews.
That kind of stiff compliment can be generated directly by software, which is fast and cheap.
And this kind of meaningful compliment must rely on manpower, which is very expensive.
Are these water armies crazy! !
He angrily opened the WeChat of the head of the troll army, took a screenshot and questioned: [Wasn’t this posted last night? Why did you change the time? And I didn’t buy such an expensive package! ]
The head of the troll army: [? ]
The head of the troll army: [Boss, I posted it last night as you said. This has nothing to do with me. ]
Now it was Jin Shiheng’s turn to be dumbfounded.
If he didn’t post it, then how did this thing come out? !
At this time, the head of the troll army spoke again: [Boss, is it possible that this was not done by the troll army, but was spontaneously discussed by the audience and became a hot search? ]
Jin Shiheng: ? ? ?
He quickly opened all the hot searches and read them one by one, but the more he read, the more disappointed he became.
Only four episodes have been aired, but the audience's heated discussions and analyses are filling the screen with an atmosphere of frantic calls for more episodes.
This is a treatment that only hit dramas can get! !
Before he could finish feeling distraught, he heard cheers from the data department.
It turned out that the traffic for "The Secret of the Six Doors" had exploded, and they were just about to report the good news.
Jin Shiheng was even more distraught.
Oh...
he suddenly remembered that it was all thanks to him that the show was so popular.
Now he has failed to gain anything, and if the truth comes out, President Pang will definitely not forgive him.
Thinking of this, Jin Shiheng felt cold in his heart.
At the same time, Wen Yue looked at the data of "The Secret of the Six Doors" on the table, and his mood was a little complicated.
Recently, Orange Video has not had an easy time.
The previous project director was poached by Xingmao Media. In addition to taking away the new project in his hands, he also revealed a lot of promotional plans for other dramas to Xingmao Media, causing several other dramas of Tiancheng Video to be sniped, which was very tragic.
As a result, "The Secret of the Six Doors" directly recovered the losses by its own efforts.
Although it was very cool to have a pie falling from the sky, Wen Yue did not forget that he told Tang Ling at the beginning that it was a D-level resource, so how did it become an A-level in the end?
Tang Ling was also very surprised. In his opinion, Sun Hongfei was still very cautious in doing things and should not make such a low-level mistake.
So he found Sun Hongfei, who told him that he had indeed written D-level resources in the plan at the beginning, but later someone from the publicity department brought another copy and said that he had made a mistake in the format. He looked carefully and found that nothing else had changed, only D was changed to A.
Sun Hongfei thought he had made a mistake, so he changed it back to A and signed it directly.
Tang Ling was speechless when he heard his sharp words: "How can you be so sure that I made a mistake?"
"Of course, considering the relationship between President Gu and President Wen..." He was just about to say, considering the relationship between President Gu and President Wen, it would be unreasonable not to give A, right?
He immediately remembered that Tang Ling had warned him not to talk nonsense, so he changed his words abruptly, "President Gu and Wen are working so hard to protect this drama. The quality of this drama is so high, it would be unreasonable not to give it an A, right?"
Tang Ling: "?"
Although he thought Sun Hongfei's idiom was strange, he didn't think much about it. However, what he said still made him worry. "I will check this matter later."
Sun Hongfei relied on his wit to avoid exposure. He breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of something and handed a printed document to Tang Ling.
Tang Ling: "What is this?"
Sun Hongfei: "This is what I found when I was paying attention to the promotion of "The Secret of the Six Doors" recently. These promotional strategies seem to be fine, but if you look closely, there are still many strange things."
Tang Ling was a little surprised. He didn't expect Sun Hongfei to be so serious and responsible.
He accepted the document and said with relief: "Don't worry, I will definitely report this to General Wen."
Sun Hongfei straightened his back proudly.
What did he say? Follow General Gu and you will get something for nothing!
The news that Tang Ling brought back really satisfied Wen Yue.
He originally wanted to move Pang Zhongcheng, but although this man was not very capable, he was ruthless, and he was really troublesome because he had his uncles and aunts backing him up.
But this time, the handle was directly handed into his own hands.
Tang Ling acted quickly and soon followed the clues to Jin Shiheng, but in order to keep his job, Jin Shiheng directly betrayed his top boss.
With these evidences and Jin Shiheng's testimony, Pang Zhongcheng was forced to resign from his position.
Although Jin Shiheng kept his job, he was demoted and moved from an independent office to a cubicle outside.
Not only that, he also heard that after Pang Zhongcheng left, the position of vice president was vacant and all department managers could compete. And surprisingly, everyone's favorite was Sun Hongfei.
The news came from somewhere that he had a close relationship with Assistant Director Tang, and it seemed that he was the real confidant
of Director Wen. Jin Shiheng, the only one who knew the truth, was furious and wanted to say loudly that Sun Hongfei was not Director Wen's confidant, he just happened to hold the right thigh, so he had this opportunity.
But how could he tell others about this shortcut to promotion! !
So Jin Shiheng could only hold back his jealousy, and while pretending to congratulate Sun Hongfei, he secretly swore in his heart: He will definitely get close to Mr. Gu!!
-Everyone
at Sweet Orange Video was happy, but Ning Tianyou from Xingmao Media was not happy.
Previously, he relied on the project director who was hired at a high salary to defeat Wen Yue step by step, and he was very proud for a while.
Who knew that "The Secret of the Six Doors" would come out of nowhere and turn the situation around in an instant.
He sent someone to check, and it turned out to be Gu Xingshi again!!!
Moreover, he knew that "The Secret of the Six Doors" had been withdrawn from investment before, and it had been circulating in the investment circle for a while.
Unexpectedly, it was Wen Yue who took over in the end!
He was really willing to do so!!
For this boyfriend, they drive a yacht and invest a lot of money. Aren't they afraid that this is really a bad drama? ! !
Ning Tianyou got angrier and angrier the more he thought about it.
It happened that there was a charity dinner, and Wen Yue also went there.
Ning Tianyou picked up the wine glass and went there in a daze.
Everyone in the circle knew that Xingmao and Tiancheng suddenly fought for no apparent reason a while ago.
In the end, it was President Wen who turned the situation around with a strange move.
In addition, Wen Yue was not a pushover either. He took a lot of advantage from Ning Tianyou in the capital market, and he still shivers with pain when he thinks about it.
These two people met on a narrow road like this. Isn't it obvious that there will be a good show to watch?
Wen Yue was calm, he just raised his eyes slightly, and the aura he exuded naturally made Ning Tianyou stop.
He hadn't said a word yet, but Ning Tianyou had already lost.
He was unwilling to accept it, but he didn't dare to act rashly. In the end, he could only say in a gloomy tone: "Mr. Wen is so lucky. No wonder he doesn't usually stay with us. It turns out that he has a treasure hidden at home!"
Wen Yue: "???"
What nonsense is he talking about?
Is he being hit too hard, is he really crazy? ?
