Chapter 509, The Arrogant Western World
The schedule for these two months is very strange.
Except for "Wesley" produced by Bayi Film Studio.
Apart from Li Yun's two works, the rest of the schedule for these two consecutive months is actually some second- and third-tier garbage works with very poor quality.
Unknown actors, a terrible script, meager funding and even no publicity at all, it's all just to make up the numbers, just to tell others that their company is still alive and still producing works, that's all.
Are there no outstanding works? Not necessarily.
The domestic TV drama market is still better than the domestic film market.
Various topics have a fixed audience. If you must say, there is no problem in sticking to your own niche. But the current situation is that people are unwilling to even stick to their own niche.
What we are doing now is nothing more than another act of cowardice before the battle.
In fact, this is what Liu Shanhe admires most about Li Yun. He is not cowardly and would back down in the face of adversity, but also has the courage and awareness to face challenges head-on.
His patriotism is burning with sincerity, and his sense of social responsibility is moving.
At this time Lu Zhengguang said.
"You're going to go head-to-head with Westworld? Use your Wesley."
"Well, this is the arrangement for the next two months."
Day and Night and Westworld are scheduled for December and January respectively.
Liu Shanhe planned to give up the schedule here in December. There was no other way as he did not have enough works on hand.
The Spring Festival period in January, which is also the period for Westworld, must not be missed. This is the absolute bottom line.
At a time when TV drama traffic is at its highest in the country, we absolutely cannot lose our base.
We can’t afford to lose this. We can’t let “Westworld” overshadow our performance.
"So it's lost in December. Besides, you are not fighting alone. Isn't Li Yun still here? Be optimistic." Lu Zhengguang smiled slightly.
In December, Li Yun’s secret corner is guarded.
Can he defend the Japanese from the White Night? I don't know.
But Liu Shanhe only knew.
The New Year period must not be missed.
Wang Chen at this moment.
The future chairman of Huaying.
The emergence of "Dying to Survive" did have some impact on him, but it did not affect the overall situation or the choice of the general direction.
Although Xie Qingya was given enough resources.
However, the company's future planning generally still tends to favor imported works.
You can make money as long as you get a game license. It feels so good and comfortable to make money without any risk.
Get used to this risk-free approach.
There is no need to get used to anything else.
Wang Chen was very busy at this time, and he was busy with the next step.
To receive Keigo Higashino.
That’s right, this time he did use a big move, and that big move was to invite Keigo Higashino himself.
This is the killer weapon.
What about Keigo Higashino himself?
The most legendary suspense writer in the island nation.
He came in person to hold a press conference, allowing the most legendary figure in the East Asian suspense world to endorse this work.
White Night Walk TV series.
This is one of his trump cards, letting the original author of this extremely popular work carry out the promotion and marketing activities.
Keigo Higashino's influence in Asia can be called legendary, and no one can match his influence.
At this time, Wang Chen went to personally receive the legendary writer. He was handsome and cool, in line with the aesthetic taste of young boys and girls, and also had a melancholy temperament.
It's not surprising. After all, the target audience of this legendary writer's works are young boys and girls.
A work that drives young boys and girls crazy.
The unique melancholy temperament in his works is also irresistible.
"Dongye-san, I'll leave it to you this time."
"Wang Jun, you are too kind. It is my honor to be able to cooperate with your company and come to China to present the best works to our fans."
Mr. Keigo Higashino said a lot of decent words.
It made Wang Chen feel very comfortable.
As expected of a guy with such a high degree of commercialization, he always speaks and acts in a flawless manner.
Of course, a conversation between the two.
It was not as simple as a few pleasantries. The subsequent commercial activities, which World Trade Center to hold the offline press conference, and the signing event for the original work were all arranged clearly.
The person who provided technical support for this project was Wang Jinghua.
"You have learned a lot from Tang Min." Wang Chen looked at Wang Jinghua with admiration. This legendary agent arranged everything perfectly.
"She is my friend. The more I get to know her, the more I'll learn." Wang Jinghua said lightly.
Being friends with Tang Min may not be without some utilitarianism.
At least, she learned this fan circle strategy from Tang Min.
"Thank you for your hard work."
At this time, Wang Chen looked at Wang Jinghua and said, "You don't have to make any arrangements for what happens next."
"No?"
Wang Jinghua was a little confused at this time.
During this period of time, there are two sets of combined punches to be launched. The first one is White Night Journey by Higashino Kigo, and the second one is Westworld.
This is actually the highlight.
The main creators and the original author of Westworld invited these legendary figures to hold a reception to create offline hype.
"They have a yacht party and can't come, so that's it." Wang Chen waved his hand and turned to leave. Although emotionally he still wanted the main creators of Westworld to come to add to the offline popularity, the initiative was not in his hands.
After Wang Chen left, Wang Jinghua was still standing there in a daze.
Are you sure? You turned down the promotion invitation here because of the yacht party? You put aside all the things you prepared because of this? This is too fucking.
Arrogant.
At this moment, Wang Jinghua truly felt what arrogance was, and he also felt what it meant to be frustrated.
The other party simply ignored it.
This kind of arrogant attitude of giving alms even has a kind of disregard.
Because they know that they have no rivals here, and because they know that the audience here can only watch the excellent works they give away, they even ignore the demands here.
An emotion that is more trampled upon than an insult.
It's this kind of disregard.
"Aren't they afraid? Aren't they afraid that some excellent works will come out here and really overthrow him?" Wang Jinghua murmured at this time.
But then Wang Jinghua started talking to herself again.
"Should they be afraid? In the realm of science fiction, there is nothing to be afraid of."
“History proves one thing.”
"They don't have to be afraid."
But at this moment, a face suddenly flashed through Wang Jinghua's mind, an extremely young face, with eyes like the universe, containing countless information.
Industry analysts called him a madman.
But there are some people.
Say he is a genius.
Super genius.
Can he bring fear to these arrogant people?
Even though their positions are different, Wang Jinghua just has this impulse.
Right now.
Li Yun was next to him, looking at the illusory reflection next to him, which was the memory of his body and the sum of his personality.
Start from a hidden corner.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Next up is the three-body thing.
The schedule has been uninterrupted for two consecutive months.
Zhang Dongsheng, a bad adult, but a good adult in the eyes of outsiders.
Zhu Chaoyang, a bad boy, a good boy in the eyes of outsiders.
When people live in this world, they always carry a disguised shell with them.
Some people disguise this body very well, while others do not. Living in this world, people always use different reasons to disguise themselves.
Even Li Yun discovered that he was also living in this world with a disguised body.
What are you pretending to be? A lot of things.
The secrets of time travelers, the secrets of mental problems, and many other things that must not be known to others, things that one must take into the grave.
"Next, I will analyze my dark side under the eyes of the general public. Are you ready?" At this time, Li Yun looked at himself in the mirror jokingly.
It's not like he's talking to his own personality, it seems like he's talking to himself, the kind of thing where he's talking to himself.
Looking at the dark side of himself in the hidden corner, it can be regarded as Li Yun's confession and venting to himself.
Secrets are not good things.
If you keep it in your heart for too long, it will rot and ferment, and if it rots and ferments for a long time, it will become smelly . Li Yun didn't think that he would stink because of this secret.
But occasionally vent.
It is still needed.
Now this work has become my outlet.
It is not only a pursuit of fame and fortune, but also a way to vent the dark side of one's heart .
At this time, Li Yun, after greeting himself, went back outside. Jiang Wen, Jiang Chenggang, Liu Qianqian, Gao Yuanyuan and others had been waiting here for a long time.
Li Yun looked at everyone present and smiled.
"It's rare that everyone has this time."
"It's almost the New Year, there's not much work to do." Gao Yuanyuan was lying lazily on the sofa at this time: "I will be free in the next three months, don't blame me for disturbing you every day."
"If I had a beautiful woman to bother me every day, I would definitely enjoy it." Jiang Wen pondered beside him, "Of course, if there was a fat man who harassed me every day, I would definitely be unhappy."
Jiang Wen suddenly had an idea. If we were to know who that fat guy was, it would naturally be Fatty Jiang himself. In the next two months, he would be the one who would continue to harass Li Yun.
It's nearly the end of the year, and the actors start to rest and recuperate, looking forward to next year without having to go through the hardships of traveling.
Then it was after the Chinese New Year.
He returned to the state of fatigue from the long journey.
This is the industry of showbiz, never at home, always in separation.
"Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will have opinions?" Liu Qianqian smiled with her eyes narrowed and teased Old Jiang Wen.
"Anyway, just go home on time at night."
At this time, Jiang Wen wailed, "It's really hard to have to work during the day and at night."
"You kid..." Jiang Chenggang was watching silently beside him.
Looking at the group of people in front of me, they were getting together.
Li Yun could feel it.
This noise.
In your own house.
Their voices echoed here for a long time. It was a bit annoying at first, but after listening to it for a long time, I felt that the sound was not bad.
A kind of noise that Li Yun could enjoy.
At this moment, Li Yun also took a seat.
Waiting for the next show to start in a hidden corner.
This December and January are definitely a small feast for TV lovers.
Suspense and science fiction go hand in hand.
And this is the first time that it was introduced from the outside world and broadcast directly on TV.
Witness history.
Although these TV series were also available on the Internet before, it always felt a little lacking when they were not broadcast on TV stations.
The situation is different now.
Foreign TV dramas entered China and were broadcast on television.
During prime time, programs will compete on the same stage with other programs, and it will be truly fair competition. At that time, good money will truly drive out bad money.
The real thing is that whoever is stronger will be on top, whoever is stronger is right, and everyone is put on the same platform to compete.
"It's such a brutal competition. I feel like this wave is going to cripple the domestic entertainment industry."
"There's no need to cripple the domestic entertainment industry in one fell swoop. They haven't even started to make any efforts, and the movies haven't even started to air yet. The domestic entertainment companies, big and small, have either withdrawn their works from the schedule or postponed them. No one dares to act recklessly here."
As for the public opinion on Weibo and the Internet, there is a feeling of "hate iron but not steel".
After all, being cowardly before fighting is never glorious and is laughable no matter how you look at it.
As the Shanghai community that has the most control over domestic Internet public opinion, seeing these indignant public opinions, one can only sigh softly.
Li Liguo next to him said.
"In fact, at this time, if we face the challenge head-on, it is a feasible thing to do if we follow the will of the people."
Now looking at the anger and ridicule on the Internet, Li Liguo feels aggrieved and wishes he could put "Wesley" on the schedule next month.
Theoretically speaking, "Wesley" also contains elements of suspense.
There is absolutely no problem in putting it in December to compete with "White Night Walk" But he can only vent because his responsibility and obligation is to block the New Year schedule in January.
Before the New Year winter vacation begins and before the Spring Festival Gala ends, we must maintain the ratings of this TV period so that our underwear won’t fall off.
"At a time when public outrage is so intense, are we going to face the challenge head on?"
At this point, Tang Min paused and said, "You can tell from the looks of it that you are only focused on your work and not on other things."
As a director, Li Liguo only needs to think about how to make the drama well. But as a producer and distributor, there are many things to think about. You need to think about the audience's preferences and analyze their behavioral logic . "This..." Li Liguo has nothing to say. From the perspective of analyzing the audience, Tang Min from the Shanghai entertainment circle is a professional. With this set of skills, the Shanghai entertainment circle has become one of the major entertainment circles in China.
"These audiences may say they are outraged, but if it really comes to a decision, they will only make a 'realistic' choice as consumers. They will choose mature works from mature markets. Supporting domestic products has always been a joke."
