Chapter 459: Medicine God and Tang People
Zhang Cheng originally wanted to say that he couldn't do it.
But after hearing Yu Xiaoshu's words of trust, Zhang Cheng finally agreed.
Back in the office, Jiang Ji, who had a relatively good relationship with Zhang Cheng, hurriedly asked, "Zhang Cheng, what did Teacher Yu ask you to do? Is there something good?"
You should know that Jiang Ji and Zhang Cheng both started out as screenwriters at Tiger Star Films, and later on, they joined Baiqian Media one after the other.
At that time, at Baiqian Media, both Xiao Xue and Jiang Ji, who were at the beginning, have now become capable of standing on their own.
Even Zhang Ling, who started out as an assistant as a screenwriter, has now become independent.
But only Zhang Cheng still lacked confidence. In fact, Yu Xiaoshu had given Zhang Cheng some opportunities, but Zhang Cheng did not seize them.
How to say? ?
When you lack confidence, you dare not act alone and always feel that you need someone to help you to feel confident.
So Yu Xiaoshu gave Zhang Cheng another chance, or it could be said to be the last one.
After all, in Yu Xiaoshu's opinion, if Zhang Cheng didn't dare to seize the opportunity even this once, then he would not be prepared to help again.
To be honest, I've kicked Zhang Cheng in the back if he still shrinks back.
I'm sorry, Zhang Cheng should just be a deputy in Baiqian Media.
In short, this time, fate is still in Zhang Cheng's hands.
It depends on how he does it.
Facing Jiang Ji's concerned inquiry, Zhang Cheng told the truth: "Teacher Yu asked me to do a good job of promoting Love Is Not Blind, especially the script and some follow-up situations. By the way, he asked me to shoot a promotional video with Wu Ming, and the script was given to me."
"Sure, the movie is about to be released. Although there are a lot of comments about this movie, many people say that Teacher Yu is crazy, but we know that Teacher Yu will not fight a battle without preparation. And if someone else made a movie in such a short time, it would definitely be suicide, but Teacher Yu is different."
After saying this, Jiang Ji turned to Zhang Cheng and said, "But Love Is Not Blind should be our company's last movie this year. Teacher Yu just handed it over to you? Without saying anything???"
"No, Mr. Yu gave me some suggestions for promotion, but the promotional script and other aspects of Love Is Not Blind were left to me."
Zhang Cheng waved his hand slightly and said.
"Of course, Zhang Cheng, you could have been on your own a long time ago, but you have always lacked courage. Teacher Yu has given you many opportunities in the past two years, but you missed them all because you were timid. Look at the other people, they were not as good as you at the beginning, but they dared to fight. Besides, since Teacher Yu dared to use you, it proves that he believes in you, so what is there to be afraid of?"
Jiang Ji thought about it and said to Zhang Cheng: "So, go for it."
"I know, I'll let it go this time."
Zhang Cheng nodded slightly and said.
Jiang Ji laughed: "That's good, and I believe in you, come on."
"kindness."
Zhang Cheng glanced at the time and said, "I'll go talk to Wu Ming first, and we can discuss what to do."
"Okay, go ahead."
Jiang Ji waved his hand and said.
In fact, Jiang Ji has always been semi-protective of Zhang Cheng. When he was at Tiger Star Film and Television before, Jiang Ji had protected Zhang Cheng a little bit openly and secretly. Later, Jiang Ji's coming to Baiqian Media was actually related to Zhang Cheng.
But because Jiang Ji did it in secret and no one thought of the two of them in that way, most people didn't notice it.
After all, how could this be possible?
In fact, Jiang Ji has been worried about Zhang Cheng's current situation. She knows that Zhang Cheng is capable and strong, but Zhang Cheng missed opportunities again and again because of his lack of courage.
Jiang Ji knew that Yu Xiaoshu and Zhang Cheng were classmates, but even if they were classmates, Yu Xiaoshu didn't run a charity.
If you can't grasp the opportunity given to you, how can I keep giving you opportunities? ?
This time.
Jiang Ji decided that she would help Zhang Cheng no matter what.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ji started to think about the script.
According to the discussion in the previous company meeting, the promotion direction of "Love Is Not Blind" is to be a gift for singles, or more precisely, a love movie.
So if it is a love movie, it should be called "Love Is Not Blind".
In this way, we can come up with some good ideas for publicity.
Broken heart.
Jiang Ji felt that he could put some effort into this aspect. After all, who hasn’t lost a love these days?
On the other side, Zhang Cheng found Wu Ming.
Wu Ming is a new director at Baiqian Media. He has been working as an assistant director with the crew. Most importantly, because Wu Ming's current abilities and other aspects are still a little lacking, Baiqian Media has not given him the opportunity to direct a work independently.
This time, Yu Xiaoshu was ready to see Wu Ming's abilities.
Yu Xiaoshu had chatted with Wu Ming before. Wu Ming and Zhang Cheng have completely different personalities. In this case, the two of them can complement each other.
"Lao Zhang, what's wrong? Do you want to drink with me?"
Wu Ming and Zhang Cheng knew each other before, and they had a pretty good relationship. They would drink together occasionally, so when Wu Ming saw Zhang Cheng coming, he smiled and said, "It's good to have a drink. I'm in a bad mood."
Wu Ming has been at Baiqian Media for a year and a half. He basically thinks that he is doing a good job, but he has never had the opportunity to take the lead.
In this regard, Wu Ming was really unhappy.
But he knew the strength of several other directors of Baiqian Media, so he had nothing to say.
There's nothing we can do but wait.
But we have been waiting for almost two years. How could Wu Ming not have other ideas?
"Okay, I think you can drink some, and if I tell you something, you should feel better."
Zhang Cheng said with a smile at this time.
Wu Ming was stunned: "Huh? Lao Zhang, don't keep me in suspense. Tell me, what's going on?"
"Teacher Yu gave me the promotional video for Love Is Not Blind. He asked me to team up with you to shoot a few short videos so that we can promote Love Is Not Blind."
Zhang Cheng said to Wu Ming: "I came here to ask you, do you dare to answer it?"
"Of course I dare. Why wouldn't I dare?"
Wu Ming almost jumped up: "I've been waiting for such a long time, isn't it just for such an opportunity? Let's go, let's find a quiet place to have a good chat. What should Teacher Yu ask us to do? And what kind of promotional video should we shoot?"
As they talked, the two found a quiet tea room.
After all, since we are talking about business, let's not talk about drinking.
Let's wait until the two of them have finished this, then we can have a drink.
"That's basically the situation. Teacher Yu hopes that we can do something around the word 'broken heart', and the name 'Love Is Not Blind' also suggests its meaning."
Zhang Cheng said: "Take a look, do you have any ideas?"
"No, Lao Zhang, you are the screenwriter, just tell me what you think. I tell you, we both have finally got this opportunity, we must not waste it, we must succeed, we must not fail."
Wu Ming was a little anxious: "Tell me first, what should we do?"
"Actually, Mr. Yu did give me some advice, and I think it's pretty good. Since we are going to make a promotional video, what kind of promotional video is the most touching?"
Zhang Cheng said to Wu Ming, "Why don't we just do a real-life interview and ask some people who have been heartbroken about their thoughts? Teacher Yu also said that if we do a good job in the interview, he plans to put it in the Easter egg at the end of the movie..."
"Okay, sure. I think this is good. And since we are making a promotional video, we can divide heartbreak into several levels, such as adolescence, youth, middle age, and old age. I believe that people in every stage have experienced heartbreak, but the thoughts, views, and even responses to heartbreak are definitely different at each stage."
Wu Ming thought for a moment and said, "What do you think???"
"Okay, let's do it. I'll find a way to write the script."
Zhang Cheng thought for a moment and said, "We'll do this in the next few days."
"Okay, you write a good script and see how we shoot our promotional video. It would be best if each promotional video has a theme. In this way, we might be able to use this promotional video to show Teacher Yu our abilities..."
Wu Ming was quite anxious, or rather, urgent.
He really wants to prove himself.
Zhang Cheng nodded gently: "I understand."
Regarding the promotion of "Love Is Not Blind", Zhang Cheng has actually written a promotional video, and on the other hand, Yu Xiaoshu has already asked the publicity department of Baiqian Media to start taking action.
Social media is king nowadays, and everything is written on social platforms. For this reason, Yu Xiaoshu asked Baiqian Media to register several IDs online. These IDs include wedding IDs and some IDs of other characters in "Love Is Not Blind".
These actions must be taken in advance.
Let’s lay the groundwork first.
Of course, the two more important characters are Huang Xiaoxian and Wang Xiaojian.
However, the two have not interacted on the social platform yet.
But who are the ones who actually interact on social platforms?
It was Huang Xiaoxian, Huang Xiaoxian’s ex-boyfriend Lu Ran, and Huang Xiaoxian’s best friend.
After all, the relationships between these three people in the movie are really bloody.
Now.
The three people can interact on their social platforms and express how good their relationship is.
And then.
Then, of course, we just have to wait for the show to start airing.
You have to know that "Love Is Not Blind" was first aired in 2011, and the term "small and beautiful" had just come out, but it was not everywhere, or even a necessity.
At the same time, smartphones weren’t what they are today.
Not to mention social platforms.
Basically, mobile phones still use flip phones.
But what about now?
It's already 2022, so things are naturally different.
In this case, some of the plot needs to be slightly changed.
These are all little things.
For Yu Xiaoshu, he just had to hand it over to Li Yang of Baiqian Media.
The filming of "Love Is Not Blind" went quite smoothly. Yu Xiaoshu handed over all matters concerning the actors' guest appearances to Li Zijing.
"I just want the result. As I said before, you can use whoever you want in this film, and just give me the finished film."
Yu Xiaoshu said this to Li Zijing.
In addition to "Love is Not Blind", the filming of "Drawing Sword" is also underway.
You know, the TV series "Drawing Sword" is quite important. In fact, because it is a mission drama, it cannot fail.
Not only can we not fail, we must also make "Drawing Sword" a success.
The higher-ups still attach great importance to Yu Xiaoshu, and are quite considerate of him. After all, think about how "Love Is Not Blind" was given the green light all the way, and it would be impossible for someone else.
For this reason, Yu Xiaoshu also had to do a good job on "Drawing Sword" and absolutely could not be too embarrassing.
After that, Yu Xiaoshu visited the set of "Drawing Sword" several times, and then he felt relieved.
Of course, Baiqian Media cannot do just this little bit.
In the afternoon, Yu Xiaoshu called Lin Feiyang to the office.
"Take a look at this script."
Yu Xiaoshu said as he handed the script to Lin Feiyang.
"kindness???"
Lin Feiyang was stunned: "Is this a new script?"
"Yes, I told you before that you and Dingge should be untied properly. After that, you should have another masterpiece. Not only you, but Dingge should also have a masterpiece."
Yu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "Don't worry about Ding Ge's script for now, take a look at your script first."
Lin Feiyang nodded slightly.
Script: "Dying to Survive".
Script summary: Cheng Yong, the owner of an Indian magic oil shop, lives a miserable life. His shop has no business, his father is critically ill, and he can't raise enough money for surgery. His ex-wife got pregnant with a rich man and wants to take away the custody of his son. One day, a leukemia patient came to the store and asked him to bring back a batch of imitation special medicines from India so that patients who can't afford the sky-high priced genuine medicines can keep a glimmer of hope. Cheng Yong, who was reluctant but desperate, unexpectedly turned his life around overnight. The cheap special medicine saved countless people, and he was named "the god of medicine" by patients, but with the benefits came a multi-party tug-of-war that put his life and the lives of poor patients in crisis.
…
After reading the script, Lin Feiyang found it simple. He then looked at the outline of the script and said, "Okay, I'll go back and take a closer look."
When it comes to this script, Lin Feiyang wasn’t thinking about whether to accept it or not, but how to do it well.
You have to know that "Dying to Survive" was a phenomenal work at the time.
In addition to this film, Yu Xiaoshu wants Ding Ge to play Tang Ren.
kindness.
Dingge can get another IP.
"Detective Chinatown".
In Yu Xiaoshu's opinion, it was natural for Ding Ge to play Tang Ren.
The only thing to consider is Qin Feng.
Who plays?
