Jiang Yang slightly modified the idea of the short film and borrowed the highlights of the CCTV "Dumpling" commercial.
It was still raining at the bus stop. An old man and a pregnant woman were waiting for the bus. The old man asked her if she was excited to see her baby soon. The woman said she was scared. When the old man asked the pregnant woman what she was afraid of, the woman said:
"Afraid that I wasn't a good mother, I yelled at the person closest to me. He never yelled at me, but I said a lot of things that I shouldn't have said because he stole candy from the supermarket-"
Her eyes were red.
The old man took out a candy from his pocket and comforted her, "I bought this for my daughter. She likes this the most."
The woman was stunned.
At this moment, the bus came. The woman stood up and put an umbrella on the old man's head, "Dad, let's go."
The plot is probably like this, but the dialogue still needs to be polished.
When he and Li Qingning had dinner together at noon, Jiang Yang was still sketching on the manuscript paper. Many lines could not satisfy him, even if there were only a few lines. Li Qingning did not speak and fed Jiang Yang a bite of pizza from time to time.
Jiang Yang suddenly raised his head, "How about replacing the old man with a little boy?"
Li Qingning asked: "Why?"
Jiang Yang said that a demented old man is similar to a baby, so this might be better.
Li Qingning shook his head.
She asked Jiang Yang not to do too many additions but to learn to do subtractions.
Jiang Yang listened.
However, his idea did not come out of nowhere, but he remembered Fitzgerald's novel "Rejuvenation".
This novel was later adapted into a movie, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," also called "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."
In the movie, Benjamin Button, who was born with the image of an 80-year-old man, gradually became younger as the years went by, experienced many legendary experiences, and finally returned to his infant form, and died in the arms of his old lover Daisy.
But in the novel, the hero's wife separated from him, and the glory he had achieved was no longer there. His son disliked him and asked the rejuvenated father to call him "uncle". He was kicked out of elementary school, and he left kindergarten and lived in loneliness.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Jiang Yang felt that the ending of the novel "Returning to Youth" was almost the same as that of a person suffering from Alzheimer's disease. All memories gradually disappeared from his mind and became disgusting. His life became an illusory dream. From his life
Medium peel.
People are bound to die. For ordinary people, it may be regret or happiness, but they leave with a blank, as if they never existed.
If it weren't for the movie, few people would probably see this novel.
Even if I saw it, it was because of its strange setting. But I don’t know why, but once I recalled this novel, I couldn’t get it out of Jiang Yang’s mind.
Jiang Yang handed over the advertising plan to Zhou Hao in the afternoon.
Zhou Hao went to communicate with the client. The TV station originally planned to shoot a public service advertisement for Father's Day. Jiang Yang's creativity was not too far off topic. Zhou Hao planned to let the client take a look. If the decision was made, follow-up cooperation would be started immediately. This is not far from Father's Day.
But there are only a few days left.
Zhou Hao put down Jiang Yang's creativity and said, "Your creativity this time is quite tear-jerking. You are really not afraid of someone sending you a razor blade."
Jiang Yang thought it was okay, "In the worst case, we'll switch to selling knives."
"This can be a business without capital."
Zhou Hao joked, and just as he stood up to leave, Jiang Yang's phone rang. It was Zhang Xiaotao. He said on the phone that against all the opinions of others, the stage had been decided and he would take the photo written by Jiang Yang.
Script, come to Kyoto tomorrow to discuss the contract.
After Jiang Yang hung up the phone, Zhou Hao sat down again and asked, "Is it settled?"
Jiang Yang said: "The preliminary cooperation intention has been decided."
The only question now is whether Zhang Xiaotao and his TV station will agree to Jiang Yang's request.
Jiang Yang wants full authorization for "Underground Traffic Station" to be disseminated online.
"Underground Traffic Station" is a very special drama. It was not popular due to various reasons when it was broadcast.
In terms of popularity, it is not as popular as "Wulin Gaiden" and other popular sitcoms, but as time goes by and word-of-mouth spreads on the Internet, the die-hard fans of this show gradually become more and more people who watch "Underground Traffic Station"
"There are only 0 times and 10,000 times.
Ten thousand times is an exaggeration, but people who have watched it once will watch it several times again, and those who can't stand it really have the wrong taste.
No need to force it.
Many people regard this monk drama as a rice drama. When they are in a bad mood, they cook two or three dishes to go with wine and a bottle of beer or white wine. Whether they watch it with someone or no one, they watch it.
Just watching, a lot of depression and fatigue disappeared.
When Jiang Yang met Zhang Xiaotao for the first time, he suddenly came up with the idea of filming "Underground Traffic Station".
After thinking about it later, I realized that this path is quite right. Copying the path this drama has taken before, broadcasting it on a small TV station, and then putting it online to rely on word-of-mouth to slowly ferment, using a small investment to achieve long-term profits is the most suitable for him now.
and Zhou Hao’s method.
As for why you don’t just eat soft rice and invest on your own——
Jiang Yang knows that if this TV series is produced now, it is destined to not be able to surpass the original version. Without Jia Gui, the teacher of Yan Guanying, even if the Oscar winner plays Jia Gui, "Underground Traffic Station" is bound to have shortcomings, and even make this TV series lack the ability to play Jia Gui.
soul.
Jiang Yang is not sure what the final direction will be.
In this case, it is best to have a partner, so that when you make money, you make money together, and when you lose money, you pay together.
"Okay, let's discuss it tomorrow. I'll work on the public service announcement first."
Zhou Hao left.
Jiang Yang was left in the office, opened the document, and wrote the title "Rejuvenation".
The plot of this short story is very simple. The protagonist has been talking since he was born. He asks his father for clothes, which scares the family doctor into resigning. The nurse in the hospital calls out to God and makes his father confused for six hours while buying baby clothes.
laugh at……
The whole first-class account.
Jiang Yang remembered a few things. After writing down some plots, he didn't need to use miniatures to slowly polish his memory.
Before I knew it, it was time to get off work.
Jiang Yang sent a message to his wife, saved the document, uploaded it to the cloud, put on a mask and went out. Han Xiaoxiao and the others left early, and the whole company was now empty. Jiang Yang turned off the power, locked the door, and got out of the garage.
He leaned against the car and waited for Li Qingning.
He took out his mobile phone to buy a ticket, and suddenly saw a flash of light from the corner of his eye. He looked to the side and saw a car in the corner. Just when Jiang Yang was confused, two people got out of the car and it was Bian An.
And Erha.
Bian An waved to Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang smiled and waved to them, lowered his head and continued to look at his phone.
Bian An asked Erha to take a look, "We reporters, when have we ever been treated like this? When we see us filming, it's as if we haven't seen you. Well water and river water don't harm each other. Where can we find such a good subject for photography?"
Erha nodded.
However, "Brother Bian, you find that you are almost becoming his fan."
Bian An took out a cigarette and said, "Nonsense, who let us eat?"
After persisting for less than half a month, their Twitter account and official account, relying on selling Jiang Yang and Big Demon King's dog food, have successfully received their first advertisement. Although it is only 10,000 yuan, the two of them will share one point.
It’s gone, but it’s better than sitting on empty seats.
Bian An wanted to light a cigarette, and after thinking about it, he put the cigarette back in.
Erha was confused, "What's wrong?"
Bian'an felt that it was not good to teach people bad things, not to mention the smell of cigarette smoke, which was just annoying.
He remembered that the last time Jiang Yang passed him in the rain, he was smoking and Jiang Yang made a dodge move.
