Perhaps the itinerary was leaked. After returning to China, Lu Yanhe and the others were blocked by a group of reporters at the airport.
After Lu Yanhe finally escaped, he got in the car and contacted Chen Siqi: I have arrived at the airport.
Chen Siqi said: We are already here, waiting for you to come over.
Lu Yanhe: Yeah, we’ll be there in about forty minutes.
Chen Siqi said: Ask the driver to drive slowly and don't rush to drive in a hurry.
Lu Yanhe: Don’t worry, Brother Dong drives very steadily.
Chen Siqi: Is Zou Dong driving? Didn't he just come back with you?
Lu Yanhe: The company arranged for someone to drive over to pick us up, but Brother Dong didn’t feel comfortable taking someone else’s car and had to drive it himself.
Chen Siqi: The person your company arranged to come over is not skilled enough?
Lu Yanhe: Not really. Before we even got in the car, Brother Dong said he would drive.
Lu Yanhe felt that Zou Dong might simply not want to ride in a car driven by someone else.
They first went back to Ziyuan Bridge to put away their things, and then sent Lu Yanhe to the gathering place.
"Brother Dong, please go back and rest. Li Pengfei and the others will take me back later." Lu Yanhe said.
If he didn't say that, given Zou Dong's character, he would definitely have to wait outside for him to finish.
Being a full-time nanny is not an easy job. Even Lu Yanhe himself felt that Zou Dong had many things to do and was complicated, and he had to take care of everything.
Lu Yanhe and Chen Ziyan have discussed that this year's year-end bonus will be larger for Zou Dong, and starting from the end of the year, there will also be a salary increase.
Chen Ziyan will take time to talk to Zou Dong about this matter in the next few days. At the same time, she will also find another full-time assistant for Lu Yanhe after the year.
In this way, Zou Dong’s work pressure will be much less.
Before, it was all left to Zou Dong because Lu Yanhe’s income could not support the team.
There is no such worry now.
The share of "Six People" brought to Lu Yanhe alone, from the exclusive broadcast and advertising revenue of the TV station alone, is in the tens of millions.
There will be more after it is launched on the video platform.
-
It’s their group gathering again.
Long time no see.
When Li Pengfei saw him, he said: "You betrayed Bai Yu's trust in you."
Lu Yanhe asked doubtfully: "What trust? What did I betray?"
Li Pengfei said: "Bai Yu But after all, with your hot-searched physique, when you arrive in South Korea, you will become famous in South Korea overnight due to a certain opportunity. I didn’t expect it. Your trip to South Korea turned out to be so ordinary, without any news."
Lu Yanhe glanced at them in surprise, dumbfounded, and said, "You have too high expectations for me. I don't have what it takes. "
Bai Yu said: "This has nothing to do with ability, this is metaphysics."
Lu Yanhe: "...Okay, then I don't know what to say."
Chen Siqi said helplessly: "These classmates of yours have almost become your most loyal fans."
"I've always been a fan of Lu Yanhe." Bai Yu immediately Said, "I liked him very much when I was in high school."
Linyu nodded, "Indeed, everyone in our class seemed to like him when we were in the third year of high school."
"Then No, isn't there Chu Saiying?" Lu Yanhe said immediately.
"Haha, you still remember him."
"How could you not remember this?" Lu Yanhe said, "The only person I hate in the class is him."
"He is now Study abroad ”
“ What is that Ivy League?"
"Yes." Lin Yu nodded, "I looked at his social media, and he was sharing his current study life from time to time. He seemed to be quite upper class, such as banquets and parties. ”
"They are all fake upper-class people." Li Pengfei said directly, "It's not like I don't know about his family's situation. If he was really a member of the upper-class society, how could he study in our high school? If he had gone there earlier, the tuition would be hundreds of thousands a year. "It's private."
"Why didn't your family send you to that kind of school?" Lu Yanhe asked curiously.
Li Pengfei: "I'm too lazy to go. It's a waste of money if I go. Anyway, I won't go, and my dad can't do anything about me."
Lu Yanhe: "How come you can be so confident every time? Are you talking about your rogue behavior like a show of merit?"
Xu Zijun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly nodded as if he felt the same way, "It turns out I'm not the only one who feels this way."
Li Pengfei: "That's because, young master, I walk and sit upright. I only blame myself, and I don't blame anyone else."
Time is flowing, and the world is changing all the time.
However, their small circle seems to have failed to keep up with the pace of change in the world, and is still stuck in the same feeling as before.
This kind of unchangedness is rare.
Li Pengfei said to Lu Yanhe: "Do you still have to pay us copyright fees?"
"What?" Lu Yanhe was stunned.
“The story you mentioned in "Six People" about fighting for the recommended quota, as well as many small details, were all based on what happened in our class, right?" Li Pengfei said.
Lu Yanhe laughed.
“It is indeed.”
Because things like sitcoms require a special sense of life and drama.
When Lu Yanhe wrote the script, he wrote about some of their past and substituted many of their friends.
In particular, some of the words that Li Zhibai and Li Pengfei once said, "If you don't speak shockingly, you will die" have become lines in the play.
Lu Yanhe asked with a smile: "Then how much royalties do you want? I'll give you a knot."
Li Pengfei: "I am worth a lot, but you may not be able to afford it."
Xu Zijun told Lu Yanhe: "My sister is also watching this drama, and she asked me if the story Li Lili mentioned in it came from what I experienced."
Xu Zijun's sisters Xu Fanxing, Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei have all met.
At that time, Xu Fanxing wanted to see Xu Zijun, but Xu Zijun refused to come out to see her, so she asked them to bring a letter to Xu Zijun.
Lu Yanhe asked: "Is your sister still working in Guangzhou?"
Xu Zijun said: "Yes, but she is planning to come back and get married."
"Marriage? "Lu Yanhe was a little surprised.
If he remembered correctly, Xu Fanxing was only two or three years older than them. Would he get married at such a young age?
Xu Zijun said: "My parents found a partner for her. They met in Guangzhou. They were together for half a year and felt that they were suitable, so they were ready to get married."
"That's a blessing." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.
Xu Zijun did not look happy at all.
“What’s wrong with you?” Lu Yanhe asked, “You don’t seem very happy?”
"Well, because that man's family... is also full of chaos."
"Huh?"
"They are all very trivial things. If I don't talk about them, they will last a day and a night. I can’t finish.” Xu Zijun immediately shook his hand.
Li Pengfei took Xu Zijun's hand and asked: "Then when do they plan to get married? You have to inform me and I will participate with you."
Xu Zijun shook his head: "Don't participate .”
"Why?" Li Pengfei suddenly felt puzzled and frowned, "I am your boyfriend, how can I not attend your sister's wedding?"
Xu Zijun hesitated to speak.
She hesitated and said, "It won't work anyway."
Li Pengfei looked unhappy.
Xu Zijun immediately got up and went to the bathroom.
Linyu saw this and said, "I'll go too."
She followed.
The atmosphere became awkward for no reason because of this incident.
Li Pengfei looked annoyed and said: "She is always like this. She refuses to take me to meet her family every time, as if I can't do anything. Although my grades are not good, I am not good at all." Then embarrass her?”
Lu Yanhe didn’t know what to say for a moment.
He asked: "Maybe because of some special reasons, she doesn't want you to attend her sister's wedding. Didn't you just see it? She doesn't seem to be that yearning for her sister's wedding."
" That's because her future brother-in-law has a very difficult stepmother, and the marriage is almost impossible," Li Pengfei said.
Lu Yanhe: "Huh?"
"It seems that the wedding gift and dowry have not been discussed. I don't remember exactly what they are." Li Pengfei said, "But no matter what Say, that's her too My sister’s wedding, my dear sister, she refused to take me to the wedding, isn’t it because she was afraid that others would know that her boyfriend was me?”
“Didn’t you think that her family might not allow her to fall in love now? "Chen Siqi said suddenly.
Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei were stunned at the same time.
Li Pengfei had a look of surprise and astonishment on his face, "She is not allowed to fall in love now? She is already in college..."
"What happened to college?" Chen Siqi said, "You forgot Did her parents force her to sell her recommended spot for 200,000 yuan? Do you think her parents are good people after something like this happened?"
Li Pengfei fell silent.
"Xu Zijun's family situation is completely different from yours. There are many things she can't tell you because you can't understand." Chen Siqi said, "You know why Xu Zijun wanted to join our "Jump Up" to be a Editor? In addition to earning some living expenses and pocket money for herself, the most important thing is that she hopes to follow When you create your future together, you can be less held hostage by your family, less embarrassed and embarrassed due to financial constraints, and have more autonomy. But here you are stupidly entangled in why she didn't take you to her sister's wedding. , that you can ask this kind of question only proves that you don’t understand her plight at all.”
Chen Siqi responded with a slap in the face. Li Pengfei was completely at a loss and looked at Chen Siqi blankly.
"If there is any dilemma, she told me that I can solve it with her."
"Solve it? Her parents can sell her recommendation quota for 200,000 "Now, knowing that their daughter's boyfriend has a family fortune of over 100 million and is the son of a wealthy family, what do you think her parents will do?" Chen Siqi asked directly.
Her eyes stared at Li Pengfei like a knife.
"If her parents did something, with Xu Zijun's self-esteem, do you think she can still be with you?" Chen Siqi finally asked.
After asking, she stood up.
“I went to the bathroom.”
Bai Yu stood up awkwardly, “Then I’ll go too.”
So, all the girls left.
Only three people, Lu Yanhe, Li Pengfei and Chen Qin, were left in the room, looking at each other.
After a few seconds, Chen Qin broke the silence and said to Li Pengfei: "You are so rude."
Li Pengfei looked embarrassed: "I, I didn't think that much."
"Brother Fei, Siqi... although she speaks a little irritably, she makes sense." Lu Yanhe said to Li Pengfei.
Li Pengfei scratched his head.
“Maybe I’m too stupid and have never thought of this.”
In Li Pengfei's eyes, he was a little inferior next to Xu Zijun.
Xu Zijun is a student who got into a prestigious university through his own efforts, but he is just a college scumbag who cannot afford to be supported.
Li Pengfei has always felt that Xu Zijun’s family may not think highly of him.
For this reason, he has been worrying about Xu Zijun's attitude of not letting him get to know her family.
Chen Siqi woke him up with a stick.
Li Pengfei is not a fool who is really full of idiots. Of course he understood what Chen Siqi meant. But after understanding it, Li Pengfei had an even bigger headache.
It seems that he and Xu Zijun still have a lot of troubles to solve in the future.
After Xu Zijun and the others came back, everyone tacitly did not mention this matter again.
The topic returned to Lu Yanhe’s experience in going to South Korea this time.
“Actually, there isn’t much to visit. It’s a very same city and I’m not used to eating it. The kimchi is indeed pretty good, but there are only so many choices. I only felt tired after eating it for three days. " Lu Yanhe said.
Bai Yu was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Ah? I actually wanted to go to South Korea. I like watching Korean dramas very much." Bai Yu said, "I have always been interested in South Korea."
Lu Yanhe said: "In the future It’s okay to go and see it if you have the chance, but there’s really no need to go there for too many days. There’s really nothing good to see.”
“How about we go on a trip together in the future?” Li Pengfei suddenly said. explain.
“I think you are thinking too beautifully and it’s difficult.” Lin Yu said immediately, “Just the four of us girls cannot take a long vacation because of the publication of "Jump Up" every month. ”
"Yes." Bai Yu nodded, "Now the workload is getting bigger and bigger. It takes ten part-time editors to read the manuscripts in the submission mailbox."
"Are there so many submissions? ?" Lu Yanhe was surprised.
"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "I was thinking about making "Jump Up" a bimonthly magazine, but after thinking about it I gave up. Several of us are still in school, and besides, this This magazine has only been established for less than two years. Speed makes waste, so we still need to consolidate the foundation."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Indeed, changing to a bimonthly publication is a very prudent decision. It will double the demand for manuscripts in a year and improve the quality. It is likely to decline, affecting the " "Jump Up" will be better if we accumulate more authors first."
"I think so too," Chen Siqi said, "However, we are planning to do more self-media, one for entertainment. Gossip, exclusive interviews with people, one The two focus on reviewing works, the former is more light-hearted and joking, while the latter is more serious. We have accumulated a lot of new media writers and business resources as an editor club account, and now it is still difficult to post on this account alone. "
This self-media account of the Editor Club, because of "Jump Up" and Lu Yanhe's connections in the entertainment industry, its cumulative number of followers on various platforms has now exceeded one million, nearly ten million, which is a very big account. , there are also many business investments.
But because it is the self-media account of "Jump Up", the content posted is relatively comprehensive and not so specialized in a certain direction.
Lu Yanhe asked: "Didn't you say before that it was difficult to maintain the current scale due to lack of manpower?"
Chen Siqi said: "We have to recruit people to do it."
< br>"Poaching people?" Lu Yanhe was a little surprised.
Chen Siqi nodded, "There are many mature people working in new media now, but because the window period for new media to make money has passed, a group of people are on the verge of being eliminated. We rely on "Jump Up" and have a solid It’s our back, so we do better and better, and your friends in the entertainment industry give us face and carry out various cooperations. Let our development momentum be very good, so we will open a few new media accounts and recruit mature teams to operate them. We only need to manage investment and positioning, and not interfere with much else. This can not only expand the media territory of our "Jump Up" series , Expanding influence does not require us to invest so much energy."
Lu Yanhe understood what Chen Siqi meant.
She is preparing to "acquire".
Lu Yanhe did not expect that he would do this to her in the new media.
“Can our current self-media revenue support us in taking such a big step?”
"It's okay. The commercial income converted from our self-media traffic has entered a virtuous cycle." Chen Siqi raised the corner of her mouth and smiled slightly, "We never engage in loss-making business."
Lu Yanhe smiled and nodded.
-
Ever since the "Six People" incident, Lu Yanhe has deeply realized that "Jump Up" has helped him far more than his initial support for "Jump Up" expect.
If "Jump Up" is about the basic market, then the media layout of the "Jump Up" series is an attempt to grasp a few flags that can influence the direction of the trend in this Internet era.
The day Chen Siqi used the power of the "Jump Up" series to promote "Six People", the entire Internet was attracted by the momentum.
Lu Yanhe’s power alone is limited after all. But the power behind him is limitless.
-
Up until the Spring Festival, the ratings of "Six People" remained stable at above 2%, and the discussion level remained at a peak.
After analysis, many people say that this is because "Six" chose a good schedule, attracting a large number of students on vacation to turn on the TV to watch the show.
Again, why do so many students turn on the TV to watch this drama?
Because on the night of the premiere, this TV series was played in the cafeterias of hundreds of universities. Due to the momentum at the time, many students went to watch the premiere, and then started discussing it on social media.
"Six People" became a "social product" on the night of its premiere. If you haven't watched it, you can't participate in everyone's discussion.
So, more and more people are following this show.
As the plot unfolds, everyone's affection for this drama gradually deepens.
But to say how good this drama is - not many people say that.
Many people even say that this is a relatively qualified sitcom. It doesn’t matter how well written the script is, because the story is too simple, and it is not the kind of rigorous story with a seamless beginning and transition. The fact that it is so popular depends entirely on schedule selection and topic marketing.
Of course, no matter what they say, Lu Yanhe will not respond.
The same is true for Jingtai and other main creators of "Six People".
Let "Six" be discussed by everyone. This is the last word to stabilize the ratings or even further increase the ratings.
Lu Yanhe originally thought that before the Chinese New Year, he would just have a meal and drink with some people and watch "Six People" carefully when it was aired. Work had come to an end for the time being. Unexpectedly, Chen Ziyan suddenly brought There's news.
Some streaming media platforms were previously interested in "Seventeen Floors" and wanted to buy the overseas broadcast rights. However, Beijing and Taiwan are unwilling to sell this drama now. They have to wait until the domestic broadcast is completed before considering selling it overseas. When Lu Yanhe heard this, he couldn't help complaining. The overseas broadcast will not affect the domestic broadcast. Come out, why do you have to wait for the domestic broadcast to finish?
But after learning about Beijing and Taiwan’s attitude, the streaming platform contacted director Lian Bei and asked him if he was interested in making another drama with this kind of escape theme for them.
Lian Bei had a lot of work on hand to prepare, so he recommended Lu Yanhe to them, saying that he had a good idea. If they wanted to make a drama with a big escape theme, they could Chat with Lu Yanhe.
So, people from the Maxine streaming company made an appointment with Lu Yanhe to meet.
Maxine is one of the largest streaming media companies in the world.
In recent years, more and more Chinese-language dramas have been purchased by overseas streaming media, especially in Asia, where the broadcast data is quite impressive. They have also invested more and more in Chinese-language dramas. Much attention.
However, due to some related reasons, no international streaming media company has entered the country so far. The domestic market is controlled by video platforms. They rarely take the approach they do in Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea, and start to get involved from the production end, producing and selling products themselves. Their strategy for Chinese-language dramas is to wait until a drama is finished online before purchasing their overseas broadcast rights.
However, this does not mean that they do not want to enter the Chinese market.
-
Chen Ziyan said: "It's very risky to give them "Squid Game". It's not that they can't do it well, but that they are too unfamiliar with the domestic market and want overseas streaming media. I have never been optimistic about entering the country, so I think you don’t need to talk too deeply to them, just have a chat.”
It’s hard to say to Lu Yanhe, "Squid Game." 》How deep is the relationship between this show and streaming media.
In contrast, Lu Yanhe does not know how far this drama will be broadcast in China, and he is not sure.
It depends on how "Seventeenth Floor" plays.
Different places and different periods have different preferences for different themes.
In Lu Yanhe’s impression, Chinese dramas do not seem to have a particularly popular “great escape” theme.
Of course, this is also related to the great restrictions on broadcasting.
When Lu Yanhe learned that Maxine contacted him because of Lian Bei's recommendation and wanted to talk about "Squid Game", he felt an inexplicable sense of destiny in his heart.
Maybe it would be better to put this drama on streaming media and replicate its previous successful route?
This kind of subject matter can indeed achieve better results if it is broadcast online.
In China, few people over the age of 40 like to watch dramas with this theme, and almost all of the viewers are young people.
Lu Yanhe can't even say these words to Chen Ziyan now.
-
Two people came to Maxine, one was American Jack Wilson and the other was Chinese Wu Zuping.
Both of them are Maxine's people.
American Jack Wilson is actually the head of Maxine’s drama purchasing department, and Wu Zuping is a producer of Maxine.
Jack Wilson showed a little surprise when he saw Lu Yanhe standing up.
Before coming here, he had already checked Lu Yanhe on the Internet and knew that Lu Yanhe is now one of the popular actors in China. The sitcom "Six People" starring in him broke a domestic ratings record in recent years. Lu Yanhe is still like this Screenwriter of the play. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't be interested in the script in Lu Yanhe's hand.
However, seeing him now with his own eyes, Jack Wilson couldn't help but sigh that he was too young.
Jack Wilson didn't mind the fact that Lu Yanhe was too young. In the film and television industry, talent often has little to do with age. He met many talented and gifted young people.
It’s just that it’s rare to be as young as Lu Yanhe.
It is incredible that the drama he wrote can achieve such high ratings.
Jack Wilson shook hands with Lu Yanhe, said his name in broken Chinese, and spoke a few words in English.
Wu Zuping helped him translate.
Lu Yanhe simply replied in English: "It doesn't matter. My English can be used for daily communication. If there is anything I don't understand, please help me translate."
Wu Zuping nodded.
Lu Yanhe briefly told them the plot outline of "Squid Game".
This lecture lasts half an hour.
The English introduction of this paragraph was prepared in advance by Lu Yanhe.
When Jack Wilson and Wu Zuping heard the story, their eyes brightened because they thought the story was very exciting.
As soon as Lu Yanhe finished speaking, Wu Zuping immediately asked: "Has the script for this drama been written yet?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "Not yet."
Wu Zuping said: "If possible, I am very interested in this script and would like to buy it."
"Buy?" Lu Yanhe was a little surprised. He wanted to buy it so soon?
"Yes." Wu Zuping nodded, "We have been looking for a good story about this theme. We have also communicated and chatted with creators from many countries. Everyone has some ideas for us, but you are the most mature. Yes, there is already a very complete and exciting story.”
< br>Lu Yanhe nodded and said: "I do have a complete idea about this story."
Wu Zuping said: "We heard that you are a very famous actor in China, but the male character of this story The protagonist seems to be a middle-aged man?”
Lu Yanhe nodded.
“Aren’t you going to star in the film yourself?” Wu Zuping asked with some confusion.
Lu Yanhe said: "I don't plan to create this drama as an actor. In fact, I already have ideas about the actors for several roles in this drama."
"Huh?" Wu Zu Ping was stunned.
Lu Yanhe said: "So, when you said you wanted to buy my script, I was a little surprised. Maybe Director Lian Bei's communication with you was a little vague. I didn't just want to buy my script. I’m just a buyer, I want to join in the creation of this drama.”
Jack Wilson looked at Wu Zuping in surprise.
Wu Zuping didn't react for a long time and hesitated.
"Do you want to join this show as a producer?" Wu Zuping asked.
Lu Yanhe said: "No matter what your identity is, this will work. The key is that regarding the filming of this drama, I had some ideas when I was writing the script. I hope to turn these ideas into reality. Presentation."
"Are you going to be a director?" Wu Zuping asked in surprise.
He also knows that many actors have the idea of becoming their own directors, especially those who have written their own scripts.
However, this situation usually happens to actors who have achieved great success.
Like Lu Yanhe, he has not reached that level yet.
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said: "That's not what I meant. I don't want to control the whole drama, and I don't have the time and energy to be a director. But what kind of style is this drama like? I hope some of my opinions can be adopted, rather than once I hand in the script, the creation of this drama will have nothing to do with me, including the male protagonist of this drama.”
"The leading actor?"
"Yes, I already have a target candidate. There are three main roles, and I already have a target actor."
Wu Zuping's face suddenly changed. After a change, he said: "Your appetite is too big. How could we allow this to happen? Are you treating us, Maxine, as your subordinates?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head, "That's not what I meant."
Wu Zuping said: "When we choose actors, we have to organize auditions. You don't just choose whoever you say."
Lu Yanhe nodded, Said: "I understand."
Seeing Lu Yanhe nod, Wu Zuping smiled.
"When we produce a drama, it is not something that one person has the final say on. This is different from the production environment in China." Wu Zuping said, "I know that in China, if your celebrities are very popular , you can completely intervene in the production of a drama, and you can make a drama according to your ideas, but it is different abroad.”
Lu Yanhe was a little surprised, "Is it different? Not really. I see that many big-name actors will control a drama and affect the production of the entire drama. Although I don't really appreciate this approach, why do you say it like this? Is this a phenomenon unique to China? Big names always have more say in the crew. This is normal everywhere."
Wu Zuping did not expect Lu Yanhe to suddenly refute him.
Lu Yanhe added: "As for me, I am not interfering in the creation of this drama because I am a popular actor. First of all, I came up with this story, and we have not yet reached a cooperation agreement. , I shouldn’t be talking about interference, right? So far, this story is 100% mine. Secondly, I want to join the production of this drama because I am passionate about this story. Understand, I am the author, and I have my own understanding. Similarly, I also wrote the characters according to several target actors, so I hope they will play them. If you accept this condition, we can continue to talk. If you feel It's hard to accept, so let's just talk about it today. Business is not done with justice. I don't know if you have heard this sentence, Mr. Wu."
Wu Zuping raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lu Yanhe looked at them with a smile.
-
After hearing what Lu Yanhe said, Chen Ziyan sneered.
"Look, I told you this a long time ago, right? Those big streaming media companies don't understand our domestic environment very well, and they are often a little arrogant and look down on our production."
Lu Yanhe said: "Well, the main reason is that I can't stand him suddenly accusing me. Think, I am not your subordinate, why should I be criticized by you? "
Chen Ziyan: "Maybe in their eyes, they like your story and want to buy your script. You will. Be ecstatic, flattered, and consider it an honor.”
"Glory? There's something wrong with me. I take it as glory."
"It's an international style. Many of them know that our Chinese creators have an obsession with international recognition, from top to bottom. They all have it, so they are negotiating with us. When working with us, they often have a condescending feeling that cooperating with us is to give us face." Chen Ziyan said, "Of course, not everyone is like this, but most people I meet are like this. You are like Shang. Yongzhou, he is in our country He is already a top actor. The great Korean director Kim Ji-yeon has asked him to act in a new movie. Because the film company is a big company in the United States, the salary they paid to Shang Yongzhou is only 800,000 US dollars. They are just bullying you. , know you are in No matter how low the pay for Chinese actors was, many people wanted this opportunity, but Shang Yongzhou refused to take it. Later, the role was given to a Korean actor. "
Lu Yanhe heard what Chen Ziyan said. He frowned slightly at this matter.
"This is too bullying."
"Yes." Chen Ziyan nodded, "Forget it, there is nothing to say about these. In short, your script for "Squid Game" is still good. If you haven’t written it yet, you can read it first. Don’t worry. As soon as the drama "Six People" is aired, no matter who you are, they can get the best conditions and send it to their overseas streaming media. It will cost you a lot of money."
Lu Yanhe thought, yes.
He has the golden signature of "Six People" in China, but he does not have it overseas.
“But, Sister Zi Yan, the film Director Chen Lingling told me before was filmed for an overseas streaming media.” Lu Yanhe said, “The salary will not be very low for me. Right?”
“We haven’t talked about it yet, but it doesn’t matter. "Urgent, don't worry too much. Huang Cheng told me that the budget given by them is sufficient and they will not deliberately lower your salary." Chen Ziyan said, "Nowadays, streaming media is still very generous when filming dramas, and those traditional film companies make movies." That’s really stingy.”
Lu Yanhe nodded.
"After the new year, we have to have dinner with the boss of Northern Lights Video." Chen Ziyan said, "His secretary came to make an appointment with us."
"Mr. Lin?" Lu Yanhe was a little surprised.
Chen Ziyan nodded.
“Have you met him before?”
“Yes, I met him when he came to our company, and we sat together and chatted for a while.”
Chen Ziyan said: "He probably wants to talk to you about cooperation."
"Cooperation?"
"Well, "Six People" is so popular, any platform that produces dramas will It’s impossible to ignore you. In fact, there are many people who want to invite you to dinner,” Chen Ziyan said, “But basically. It’s just that I blocked you. It’s strange. You are obviously very popular as an actor, but now everyone seems to value you more as a screenwriter.”
“This is not normal.”
"Of course it's not normal. Screenwriters have never been taken seriously."
"Maybe it's because the show "Party of Six" is a sitcom? Didn't you say that there aren't many sitcoms in China now? They also want to replicate such low-cost, high-return success?"
"Maybe, anyway, no matter what the situation is, it doesn't matter." Chen Ziyan said, "We will know when we talk to him face to face."
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Ziyan asked: "Are you going to be alone during the Chinese New Year this year?"
"Yes." Lu Yanhe said, "It's good, just enough to rest quietly for a few days."
>
-
Every time during the Chinese New Year, Lu Yanhe felt very unhappy.
When I am usually busy, I basically don’t have time to think about so many things.
But when the New Year comes, even if he doesn't mention it, others will remind him again and again that he is a person without a family.
However, fortunately, Lu Yanhe actually had an ordinary but happy growth process.
The unfortunate Lu Yanhe had died in the river.
But at times like this, Lu Yanhe could not help but miss his parents.
Actually, it's a pity that I didn't let my parents see what he looks like now.
Lu Yanhe thought, if only they could see it.
Yan Liang left on the 29th day of the New Year and returned to his hometown to celebrate the New Year.
He also asked Lu Yanhe if he wanted to go back with him. Lu Yanhe said that it would be good to stay alone and rest for a few days, waiting for him to come back.
Li Zhibai is here, he is going to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala.
However, after the Spring Festival Gala recording ended, he went back directly.
On the night of New Year's Eve, Lu Yanhe turned on the TV and let the Spring Festival Gala play, but he couldn't really watch it until Li Zhibai's program came out.
He watched the program carefully from beginning to end.
On the TV, there was frequent laughter from the audience.
However, Lu Yanhe felt that this program was quite embarrassing.
Li Zhibai's performance was okay, but the lines were so embarrassing that Lu Yanhe felt awkward listening to them. It didn't look like something Li Zhibai could say.
Looking at the Internet again, sure enough, there was a lot of ridicule.
The effect is not good, and the power of fans is only a drop in the bucket among the huge crowd of viewers of the Spring Festival Gala.
Fortunately, Li Zhibai was not the only actor in this sketch. Several actors were laughed at by many people because this sketch was not funny.
Lu Yanhe only hopes that Li Zhibai will not be affected by these comments when he looks back.
Being able to attend the Spring Festival Gala is already a success.
After Li Zhibai finished his performance, he posted in the group of the three of them: The effect was not good.
Yan Liang said: I think it’s quite funny. Our family all enjoyed it. My mother also said you are very handsome.
Li Zhibai: Hahaha, thank you auntie for me. It’s okay. Feel free to scold me. In fact, we had expected this before we went on stage. I’m going back. Lao Lu, are you asleep?
Lu Yanhe: I am thinking about how to comfort you.
Li Zhibai: Don’t be pretentious. What’s the consolation? After this year, others will only remember that I attended the Spring Festival Gala. Not many people will remember that my program was not good. Anyway, now Not many performances are remembered.
Lu Yanhe: I feel relieved to see you have such a mentality. I originally wanted to say, how about I write a sketch next year and we can perform it, but it seems that there is no need.
Li Zhibai:? ? ?
Yan Liang:? ? ?
Lu Yanhe: I’m about to go to bed. The programs are not very good, so I waited until I finished watching your program before turning off the TV.
Li Zhibai: I will see the script tomorrow!
Li Zhibai: Lu Yanhe, my turnaround depends on you!
Li Zhibai: I must let these people who laugh at me see clearly that it is not my problem, but that the story itself is not well written. Why is it all my fault? I'm so angry! (End of chapter)
