"Haha, so... we can start formal preparations for the second season of our drama and start filming as soon as possible?"
On the phone, Xue Zihan asked in a brisk tone.
Sun Quan smiled and said, "Sister Xue, don't be so anxious. Today is the first day this drama will be launched. Don't be so anxious. Just wait and see for a few more days. Anyway, there are only 14 episodes in the first season and it will be over in 7 days."
Once all are released, the overall reputation of this season will be fully clear. Moreover, the script for the second season still needs to be polished and polished. Don’t worry! You have been waiting for such a long time. Is there still only one week left?
What do you think?"
Xue Zihan: "..."
After a period of silence, Xue Zihan had calmed down a lot when he spoke again.
"Oh, yes! You are right! I was too impatient and was carried away by today's great situation, okay! Then I will wait a few more days and I will listen to you."
What Sun Quan doesn't know is that Xue Zihan has seen the popularity and reputation of this drama after the two episodes were aired today, and is already convinced by him.
Because this drama has already been publicized from the original work to the script, to filming, post-production, and most of the ideas were taken by Sun Quan.
The original work was written by him.
Although the script... was written by someone else, it was reviewed several times by Sun Quan, who made many comments and had the screenwriter take it back and revise it many times.
In terms of photography...
In terms of technology, it was indeed assistant director Wang Zheng who did the work.
But Sun Quan has always been in control of the general direction of the plot.
Post-production... Sun Quan participated in the whole process.
Even the publicity plan was his idea. He actually spent millions of publicity expenses on online publicity, leaving not a single advertisement in traditional media.
Most people would not dare to come up with such an unconventional publicity plan. It would be great if it works, but if it fails, it will become the laughing stock of the industry.
"Dong dong"
At this moment, Sun Quan's office door was knocked. Sun Quan glanced at the door and immediately said to Xue Zihan on the other end of the phone: "Okay, that's it! I have someone here, Sister Xue, let's go back.
We’re chatting!”
Xue Zihan: "Okay, you go about your business, bye!"
The call here had just ended, and the office door that had just been knocked was opened. Sun Quan was a little surprised, but when he saw that the person who opened the door was his wife Yuan Shuiqing, he smiled.
When Yuan Shuiqing came to his place, it was considered polite to knock on the door. After knocking, he opened the door by himself. That was normal operation. Did he still need his consent?
"My dear, why are you here at this time?"
Sun Quan asked with a smile.
Yuan Shuiqing, who came in at this time, also had a smile on his lips, closed the office door behind his back, walked towards him, and said softly: "It's time for lunch, I'll take you home."
"Oh? Take me home?"
Hearing this, Sun Quan burst out laughing.
At the same time, he stood up and walked over, held her waist, looked into her eyes curiously, and asked with a smile: "It's less than two hundred meters from home, do you need to pick me up? What's the reason? Tell me!"
There was a smile in Yuan Shuiqing's eyebrows, she raised her hands, held his face, moved slightly closer, and kissed him on the mouth...
After a while, the kiss ended.
The smile in her eyes turned into affection, and she whispered: "Do you know the answer now? Do you still want to ask why?"
Sun Quan: "..."
Sun Quan didn't answer her rhetorical question immediately, but he still had doubts in his heart, so he carefully discerned the expression on her face, especially the affection in her eyes.
Frowning slightly, he was thinking: No way? It's almost time to eat. If she comes here at this time, does she want to eat me first?
Has she never been so proactive?
He was confused in his heart, but he felt that he could discuss this question later. For now, he lowered his head and wanted to kiss her.
In this kind of matter, he felt that he should carry forward the gentleman's behavior and not let women take the initiative all the time.
but……
But Yuan Shuiqing leaned back slightly, put a jade finger on his mouth, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's time to go home for dinner, everyone is waiting! Let's go! Go!"
Sun Quan: "???"
Children, do you have many questions?
At this moment, Sun Quan had more questions in his mind. Did I just go astray? My daughter-in-law came here just to take me home for dinner?
Is it too pure?
"Okay, wait for me, I'll save the document and turn off the computer."
He wasn't in a hurry, they were an old married couple, and since she didn't mean it that way, he didn't force it. He went back to the desk, saved the document, and turned off the computer.
He held hands with Yuan Shuiqing, left the study, and went home to have dinner.
After coming out of the studio, the two of them walked hand in hand in the community. Sun Quan couldn't help but ask again: "My dear, you are very unusual today. You usually don't come to take me home for dinner. What is the reason? Tell me?"
hey-hey."
Yuan Shuiqing glanced at him with a smile, and the smile at the corner of her mouth became even thicker. She brushed the hair beside her ear and said softly: "It's nothing. I just watched the first two episodes of "The Last Wish of the Dead" and I like it very much..."
After a pause, her cheeks turned slightly red, she didn't look at Sun Quan, and her voice lowered a few degrees, "That's why I suddenly wanted to come see you and take you home for dinner."
She explained very implicitly.
Sun Quan squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then looked at her slightly red cheeks and suddenly realized something in his heart.
By the way, they have been married for several years and have three children. As the marriage goes by, Yuan Shuiqing is less and less shy in front of him. To be more precise: he has not seen her shy in front of him for a long time.
At this time, her face was red, and her expression was obviously shy.
It's very similar to the expression on his face every time he went to see his girlfriend when he was still a newbie in love.
I still remember that at that time, he was thinking about her all day long, and every time he appeared in front of her, he would be a little nervous and his face would heat up slightly.
Yuan Shuiqing's expression at this time was very similar to his embarrassment back then.
So, he laughed.
He squeezed her palm gently and laughed in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, I give you a chance to say you love me, seize it! After passing this village, there is no such store, haha."
Perhaps Yuan Shuiqing originally wanted to say this.
But after hearing what he said, she immediately rolled her eyes at him, blushed and spat: "Go! You have a beautiful idea! Let's go quickly! The food at home is already ready."
Sun Quan chuckled.
…
Sun Quan was busy this afternoon.
I answered a lot of calls and received private messages from a lot of people.
There are teachers, classmates, colleagues, book fans, and a call from Lao Yi, the vice president of Qidian.
Lao Yi's call came around three o'clock in the afternoon, when Sun Quan was continuing to write the outline of the new book in the office of Xianyu Studio.
Lao Yi's phone call came suddenly.
As soon as Sun Quan answered the call, he heard Lao Yi say: "Haha, Xianyu, congratulations! The popularity and reviews of the new drama's premiere are so good, it's really great! I just took the time to watch your drama, it's really great
I like it very much. Anyway, congratulations! Haha."
The state of writing detailed outlines was interrupted again, and Sun Quan felt helpless.
But he still has to express his gratitude. Who knows that the other person is the vice president of Qidian!
"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Yi, for your compliment. I appreciate it."
Lao Yi: "No, no, what I said is true, not a compliment! By the way, what are you doing? When will the new book be released? Then I will say hello to the following and ask the editor-in-chief of your group to
You promoted a new book on the homepage, haha."
As soon as he said this, Sun Quan had to doubt his true intention of making this call. Was it to urge him to publish a new book quickly?
"Mr. Yi, don't worry, I still have a few days to finish the outline of my new book. When the outline is finished, I will save tens of thousands of words before publishing it! Don't rush me, haha."
Lao Yi: "Okay, okay! Then I won't disturb you anymore. I look forward to your new book being released soon. Come on! And, finally, I would like to say congratulations and goodbye!"
Sun Quan: "Bye!"
That afternoon, in addition to receiving a call from Lao Yi, Sun Quan also remembered calls from several great people in Qidian. These calls started with congratulations on the premiere of his new drama, and then basically asked everyone if they could
Cooperate?
Someone wanted to sell him the film and television adaptation rights of his work.
Such as ghost dance.
Gui Wu's works are of different types. He started out writing urban novels. After he became a god and became a god, he turned to writing fantasy. His achievements are also very good, and he does not fall into the status of a god.
The copyrighted works he wanted to sell to Sun Quan were several urban novels under his name.
Someone not only wants to sell the film and television adaptation rights of the work to Sun Quan, but also wants to invest millions in shares.
For example, San Shao.
San Shao is best at fantasy. He doesn't have any urban works, but on the phone, he told Sun Quan that if necessary, he could write an urban one for his next book, so that he could adapt it into a TV series.
In contrast, Tomato is much more reserved on the phone.
After congratulating Sun Quan, he asked Sun Quan in a joking tone if his company Xianyu Film and Television currently had any plans to make a fantasy drama?
…
Sun Quan was very polite to the inquiries from these fellow experts.
None of them refused outright, only saying that he would let professionals evaluate whether their works were suitable for his company's adaptation. If it was suitable, he would definitely have someone contact them as soon as possible.
To be honest, he is more interested in the game adaptation rights for the works of these great gods.
Because in his impression, many of the works of masters such as Yuan Shikong have sold game adaptation rights.
Compared with game adaptation rights, the film and television adaptation rights of their works are much less popular.
There are many factors involved.
But it has nothing to do with the quality and popularity of their works.
In terms of quality and popularity, the works of the masters on the Qidian male channel are far superior to the works of all female channel websites.
The most important thing is due to the style of their works and the current weak status of the domestic film and television drama market.
Simply put, their works are wonderful.
However, the current situation of domestic film and television dramas is that generally they can only produce erotic stuff like those on female porn websites. Firstly, the domestic film and television special effects cannot keep up, and secondly, the domestic film and television drama industry is currently extremely deformed.
Most of the investment in a film and television drama is used to pay the actors' salaries, leaving very little money that can be used to improve the quality of the film and television drama.
Not only that, screenwriters in the domestic film and television drama industry are also accustomed to adapting any subject matter using the same screenwriting techniques they have long been accustomed to.
What is the scriptwriting technique that they have long been accustomed to?
Forcibly creating conflicts between characters, love triangles, love quadrilaterals...etc., it's full of bloody tricks.
This screenwriting technique is summarized from the adaptation of traditional literary works in the domestic film and television drama industry over the years.
They may not have thought that the style of online writing, especially the style of male online writing, is completely different from the style of traditional literature.
Therefore, they used their accustomed screenwriting techniques to adapt the male-video online works... and the effects of the adaptation are hard to describe.
No matter what style of web writing you have, they can adapt it to the style of a romantic drama.
Unfortunately, the Qidian male videos generally don’t like to write about the kind of love relationships that involve torture and abuse, and very few people like to write about the kind of stories where the characters have constant conflicts, but they don’t kill the villain.
What is this like?
It's like using the method of writing Tang poetry to write Song lyrics.
Having said all that, it's not that Sun Quan doesn't want to try to adapt the works of great masters like Qidian, but that he has no plans in this regard yet.
His experience in salted fish movies and TV shows is still too little.
I still need to shoot a few more dramas set in modern cities to practice my skills and build my reputation.
While practicing my skills, I also made Xianyu Film and Television famous.
This is his plan.
In his opinion, the two must go hand in hand and both hands must be strong. Only then will his Xianyu Film and Television be qualified to challenge those Internet articles that adapt the style of Qidian Men's Video.
If there is not enough experience, the quality of the series will not be high, and the production will be embarrassing and ruin the masterpieces of great masters.
And if Xianyu Film and Television is not famous enough, it will be difficult for the works he spends a lot of money to attract enough viewers to watch.
In the end, you still have to lose money.
He doesn't like losing money.
Because a losing business won't last long.
He also wants to make a few more works!
In addition, there is one thing he didn't say to the great masters - even if he wants to make a fantasy-style TV series, his first choice is his own work.
He will not think about filming other people's works until the adaptation and filming of his own works have been completed.
That was his original intention when he decided to establish Xianyu Film and Television.
…
It was around 8 a.m. the next day.
Sun Quan came to Xianyu Studio and his office. After turning on his computer, he logged into Youku Video and found "The Last Wish of the Dead". He was pleased to see that the number of views on this drama had reached more than 640,000.
If nothing else happens, we should be able to break one million today.
Compared with some popular TV series currently on the market, such data is really not worth mentioning.
But how much is the total investment in those TV series? How much is the total investment in his TV series?
Also, which of those TV drama companies is not a well-known film and television company in the industry?
Moreover, among the cast members of the popular TV series, which one could not completely blow up his "Dead Man's Last Wish"?
He is not greedy.
This drama has become so popular within one day of its release, and he is very satisfied.
Thinking back to the time when he first entered the online literary circle and wrote his first book, he was deeply impressed by how slowly his popularity grew.
He only wrote his first million-click work three years after he entered the industry.
Therefore, he knows how difficult it is for a newcomer to get ahead.
He believes the same is true in the film and television industry.
