Chapter 9 Goodbye, Yu Xiang
In the first episode, Yu Huanshui, who is full of lies, becomes even more miserable when he encounters a quagmire.
01 2008, on the road.
A speeding motorcycle was speeding on the road. On board were Yu Huanshui and his friend who were in a hurry to discuss business. Yu Huanshui was talking on the phone while weaving through the traffic. A large car came out of the road and Yu Huanshui and his friend fell to the ground with blood on their heads.
02, 2018, room.
In the kitchen, Yu Huanshui was frying eggs. Ten years later, he had been in a car accident. Since then, Yu Huanshui had completely changed his life creed. He endured everything and became a complete house cook. In the eyes of his wife Gan Hong, Yu Huanshui was a man who did not want to make progress.
Yu Huanshui cooked the rice and taught his son Yu Chen while serving him the rice. Yu Chen opened his mouth to drink milk. Yu Huanshui didn't want to be late for work, so he lied that the supermarket was out of milk. Yu Chen was a little angry. Gan Hong couldn't help but walk out of the bedroom and accused Yu Huanshui of irresponsibility. Yu Huanshui had to obey. But when Yu Huanshui came back with milk, Gan Hong left the task of sending his son to school to him.
…
The first episode of "I Am Yu Huanshui" contains a lot of information. Yu Huanshui, who tells lies all the time, is looked down upon by his wife, his son, and even the women who keep dogs in the community ridicule him.
He was late and the company leader didn't believe his excuse at all and wanted to fire him.
The apprentice he had raised humiliated him in public.
My wife is cheating on me.
The workers who were renovating upstairs ignored him, and the owner who was renovating ignored him altogether.
I can’t get back the money I lent to my old classmate.
He wanted to get the company's gift by discovering Liang Anni and Zhao Juemin's affair, but he ended up being tricked by Liang Anni and fined to the point of leaving the house.
The first episode was terrible, and the second episode was even worse.
Yu Huanshui suffered all kinds of humiliation at his father-in-law's house.
Wife Gan Hong filed for divorce.
Lu Fumeng just refused to pay back the money.
I drank fake alcohol and went to the hospital for a check-up.
Cancer came directly in the third episode.
…
The more Wu Hai looked, the more horrified he became.
As the production manager of Tiger Star Pictures, especially in charge of online dramas, he certainly has the ability to appreciate.
The first three episodes of "I Am Yu Huanshui" have an extremely tight pace.
If it were an ordinary web drama, then the first three episodes would have to be padded to at least 10 episodes.
but.
Wu Hai raised his head and frowned at Yu Xiaoshu and asked, "How many episodes are there in the script?"
Yu Xiaoshu said: "12 episodes."
“So short??”
Wu Hai was a little surprised: "But will the first three episodes be so miserable and depressing that it make the audience feel uncomfortable?"
"Won't."
Yu Xiaoshu shook his head slightly: "A successful web drama should follow the path of first suppressing and then praising. The more severe the suppression in the beginning, the more exciting it will be in the end. In the end, Yu Huanshui will be even more miserable, but when the audience puts themselves in the shoes of Yu Huanshui, they just want Yu Huanshui to rise."
At this point, Yu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "To be honest, Yu Huanshui represents the millions of middle-aged office workers who have elderly parents and young children to take care of. When they reach middle age, they have mortgages and car loans to pay for. They dare not get sick or be late. Working overtime 996 is common in the company. However, even so, they will still be marginalized by the company because they are middle-aged..."
Why on earth has this drama become a phenomenal online drama?
Isn’t it because of the strong sense of immersion?
Is Yu Huanshui miserable?
That's really miserable, at least on Earth, he is the most miserable person in 2020.
Think about it.
You are middle-aged.
You have a boss who often looks down on you.
The apprentices you once brought up often mocked you.
Your son despises you even more.
You also have a wife who often looks down on you.
What’s even more terrifying is that this wife is a brother-supporting womanizer.
Although I have explained it many times, I still need to explain again what is meant by "a brother-supporting demon"?
The sky is big, the earth is big, but my younger brother is the biggest.
Dad and mom are dear to me, but my younger brother is dearer to me.
He would rather eat bran and have diarrhea than not find a wife for his brother.
I would rather my family be broken up than not buy a house for my brother.
This is what we call a brother-supporting demon.
You thought it was worse.
The result is even worse. This brother-supporting wife doesn't even satisfy your physical needs.
A man can only rely on himself to satisfy his physical needs.
Are you feeling frustrated?
Although we often say that men have to rely on themselves.
But Nima also scored.
That’s not all, what’s even worse is that you have a sucky father.
kindness.
In short, if you substitute two of the above things, you will become depressed.
"Mr. Luo, what do you think?"
Wu Hai didn't dare to make a hasty decision, because the company's next web drama on the theme of "urban life" could not have any mistakes.
Otherwise he cannot bear the responsibility.
"Okay, very good."
Luo Yuan looked at Yu Xiaoshu with a little relief and said, "The reason why the scripts you wrote after graduation failed was because you lacked social experience. It is difficult for a screenwriter to write a good urban drama without social experience. Now it seems that the lows you have experienced in the past few years have allowed you to accumulate a lot of experience. A large part of your emotions have been injected into the character of Yu Huanshui."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded slightly, it was time to pretend.
"Yu Huanshui was also very talented in 2008 and wanted to be on the cusp of the trend, but because of a car accident he became a greasy middle-aged man. This setting is pretty good."
Luo Yuan said with admiration: "But what's going on between you and Wu Tong?"
Yu Xiaoshu said at this time: "Teacher Luo, you may not know that Wu Tong is my junior. Back then... If you don't believe it, you can ask my teacher or some screenwriters of Kunlang Film and Television."
“Is it really like this??”
Luo Yuan looked a little angry: "Then you are right to fight back."
"But what about Liu Xiang???"
Wu Hai then said to Yu Xiaoshu, "No matter what, he is still your senior, and he is also the person in charge of your screenwriting department. Since you have already written the script, why bother arguing with him? I don't believe that if you give this script to Liu Xiang, Liu Xiang will not see the merits of this script?"
"Mr. Wu, it was Liu Xiang who didn't give me a chance at all. And if I really showed him the script, I'm afraid he wouldn't approve of it."
Yu Xiaoshu shook his head and told how Liu Xiang stole Zhang Cheng's script, and then told how Liu Xiang had just cursed Yu Xiaoshu indiscriminately.
After giving a brief explanation, Yu Xiaoshu turned to look at Luo Yuan and said, "Teacher Luo, you are right. I am indeed young and energetic."
"No, no, young people should be full of energy. If a young person doesn't have energy, what kind of young person is he? If he doesn't even have energy, how can he write a good script?"
The more Luo Yuan looked at Yu Xiaoshu, the more he liked him. "We screenwriters should have a spirit, a spirit of never admitting defeat, a spirit of being stubborn and unable to learn to bend. If anyone bullies us, no matter who he is, if it is unfair, we will not hesitate to overturn the chessboard..."
Wu Hai: “???”
MMP.
I didn't expect that you, Mr. Luo, are also a double standard dog.
"Boss Wu, can you transfer Yu Xiaoshu to our department?"
Luo Yuan said: "Since Liu Xiang can't accommodate him, then I will take him."
"this…"
Wu Hai was a little stunned. His original intention was to let Yu Xiaoshu leave after three months. Since Liu Xiang was willing to torment Yu Xiaoshu, that would be even better. The sooner Yu Xiaoshu left, the better.
After all, Wu Hai wants results, he doesn't need a waste.
But no one expected that Yu Xiaoshu would have written the script on just the first day of taking office.
"kindness??"
Luo Yuan looked at Wu Hai and thought he was worried about Liu Xiang, so he said directly: "How about this, Mr. Wu, I'll go talk to Liu Xiang."
"good."
Wu Hai nodded gently: "I will gather people to discuss this script first."
"Okay, let's go, Little Tree."
At this time, Luo Yuan stood up and said to Yu Xiaoshu.
"OK."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded slightly.
Done.
Yu Xiaoshu did everything today just to get attention, and at the same time, he forced Liu Xiang to find Wu Hai because of the script.
It's very simple. Through Zhang Cheng's conversation, Yu Xiaoshu understood why Liu Xiang was so critical of Zhang Cheng.
This routine can be seen everywhere on earth.
They steal your ideas and your scripts, and then you have nothing to say.
So if Yu Xiaoshu really handed "I Am Yu Huanshui" to Liu Xiang, it would probably be like throwing a meat bun at a dog.
Of course, Yu Xiaoshu has already registered this script.
Secondly, Yu Xiaoshu knew that Wu Hai looked down on him, so he wanted to see whether Wu Hai thought highly of the script.
If he really doesn't like it, Yu Xiaoshu will definitely leave Tiger Star Films.
A production manager without vision has doomed this company to a temporary demise.
Originally, Yu Xiaoshu wanted to get things done within a week.
I didn't expect to meet Wu Tong in the cafeteria at noon, and then Liu Xiang came up to me like this.
Screenwriter of 1 film.
Liu Xiang did not go to the office. He waited for Yu Xiaoshu in the office area.
He wanted to see with his own eyes how miserable Yu Xiaoshu became.
Fight with me?
You are still a little young.
"You regret it now."
Seeing Yu Xiaoshu coming in, Liu Xiang sneered and said, "I tell you, it's too late to regret, get out of here now."
"You have to be called Yu Xiang from now on."
Yu Xiaoshu said to Liu Xiang indifferently.
Liu Xiang was stunned: "What did you say?"
"Stupid."
Yu Xiaoshu was too lazy to pay attention to Liu Xiang. He went straight to his seat, took his things, and said to Zhang Cheng, "I'm going to write the second part of the script. If you have anything, come find me there."
Zhang Cheng: "What?"
Everyone was equally stunned.
Yu Xiaoshu was not fired? ?
"How is it possible? How is it possible that you were not fired??? How could Luo Yuan, the screenwriter of the second part, hire you?"
Liu Xiang said with some disbelief.
"How is it impossible?"
At this time, Luo Yuan came over from behind and asked Liu Xiang, "Teacher Liu, do you have any opinions?"
"Ah?? Me??"
Even though Liu Xiang can do whatever he wants in screenwriting, he really has no confidence in front of the platinum screenwriter.
Let’s put it this way, there is a huge gap between great screenwriters and platinum screenwriters, and it is extremely difficult to cross it.
So Liu Xiang didn't dare to show any interest at all. He showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Of course I have no objection. I have always been optimistic about Xiaoshu."
"hehe."
Yu Xiaoshu chuckled and waved his hand: "Goodbye, Yu Xiang."
Fuck you.
Looking at Yu Xiaoshu's back, Liu Xiang almost vomited blood.
Of course, Liu Xiang is not alone.
Now, Wu Tong is about to vomit blood.
He has a lot of question marks.
