Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 166 Exchange and Undercurrent

If it is determined that an additional if line needs to be added, the script must be rewritten.

However, there is no need to think too much about the if-line plot of East Love. The intersection point is definitely in the last episode when Rika is waiting for Nagao at the station.

The difference between the two branches is that they hold on for a while and wait for Nagao to arrive. Or like in the original ending, Rika is heartbroken and leaves in the end.

In fact, judging from Rika's performance in the previous episodes, given Rika's personality, she would definitely wait till death.

Because in the second episode, Rika waited from seven o'clock until late at night just because of a dinner date with Nagao.

There's no reason to be so impatient at the end.

But the original ending was arranged like this for one reason only: she was truly extremely disappointed and had no confidence in herself.

Therefore, Su Yan's modification of the script in this way actually fits Rika's previous personality.

As for the subsequent plot, first of all, we must spend some space to describe Satomi. After all, she is the only loser, and it is impossible for her to be shameless enough to look for Mikami again. She can be single, or she can meet another outstanding man at the end, so as to leave some room for imagination.

As for Nagao and Rika, the following parts give them some sweet, affectionate scenes to depict that Nagao has really strengthened his confidence this time and is no longer affected by Satomi.

Anyway, for the if line, just write what the audience wants to see.

As for what the audience wants to see?
Su Yan’s millions of fans in his previous life had already given the answer, and Su Yan just copied it.

In the afternoon, Su Yan also cooperated with the advertising placement company of Dongai to shoot a short advertisement in a studio in Tokyo. In the evening, before leaving get off work, he received a stack of documents from Shinozaki Yumi.

There are a lot of overseas TV stations and local video websites that want to cooperate with Su Yan and have written letters of intent to introduce Dong Ai. If Su Yan thinks there is no problem, someone from the company will go to cooperate with those companies.

After completing a series of tasks, Su Yan returned to his residence.

Now, the filming of Tokyo Love Story has come to an end.

The same goes for Madoka Magica. Previously, Ikumi Shinozaki suggested to Su Yan that since the company's first film performed well, they could continue to release new works.

In this regard, Su Yan also hinted to Shen Liqian implicitly that if the company has a new film project, she will be given priority to play the female lead.

By now, the system has accumulated a lot of emotional value.

The most important thing is that Su Yan also has to find new jobs for his employees.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of manpower, material resources and resources for the entire company to take a collective holiday after the filming of East Love and Madoka Magica is completed.

Since the main priority is the movie, Su Yan can only avoid the lottery.

The lottery is too random.

With so many movies and TV series, who can guarantee what they will win?
Most of the works that Su Yan had known about in his previous life were games, animation, and a small number of Japanese film and television dramas.

Therefore, if he exchanges directly, he will not have many options to choose from.

The Garden of Words was a box office success. Logically speaking, Su Yan should continue to keep an eye on Makoto Shinkai's works to make money.

The first thing to do is to redeem your name, but this movie had such good commercial and reputation in its previous life, these two factors will increase its redemption price.

Su Yan can't afford to exchange it now, the same goes for that.
The same is true for Weathering With You and Bell Bud Journey.

Although the latter two works have average reputation among Makoto Shinkai's works.

But its commercial value is still high. Among Makoto Shinkai's previous disaster trilogy, Weathering with You, the worst-performing one, had a total box office of more than 1 billion Chinese yuan in all regions combined.

And this bad reputation only applies to Makoto Shinkai's works.

Compared with the entire film market in Su Yan’s previous life, the reviews were pretty good, at least better than those of weight loss films.

Although some people may find some of the plots awkward, most of these are just controversies of the plot of "your panacea is my poison".

Among Makoto Shinkai's works, the only ones that Su Yan can afford at this stage and are suitable for adaptation in Xiaguo are 5 Centimeters per Second, Beyond the Clouds, and The Place Promised in Our Early Days.

But the latter is too stream-of-consciousness, so Su Yan ruled it out for now.

However, although Su Yan had a clear idea in his mind, the work he chose to redeem was not Seconds Five. The reason was very simple. Since it was confirmed that the movie was promoted because of Shen Liqian joining the company, none of the female characters in Seconds Five were suitable for Shen Liqian to play.

So Su Yan chose to exchange for another work first.

"Love Like a Bouquet".

A love movie from an island country that Su Yan loved very much in his previous life.

It was actually released in China in Su Yan's previous life, but the box office was average, with a box office of about 100 million.

However, the box office performance of a movie depends on many factors.

For example, when live-action movies from the island countries are released in China, the box office is generally not high.

Because these live-action movies have been released in the island countries for more than half a year or even more than one or two years before they were introduced to China.

Pirated resources are everywhere on the Chinese Internet. People who want to watch these movies have basically watched them through various resources on the Internet.

Naturally, there will be a lot fewer people going to the cinema to watch movies, and the box office will be greatly affected.

Moreover, films from the island countries are often introduced to China in the form of batches. Basically, the importing party spends money to buy out the copyright and then directly releases it in theaters. It cannot be said that there is zero publicity before the release, but how much money can be spent on publicity for a film that they only spent a few hundred thousand to import?

For low-cost blockbusters that can make a profit as long as they have a total box office of 30 million, the importer naturally won't spend much effort on promotion. They can simply release the film without any publicity and rely on the support of some niche fans, so the pressure to make a profit is quite small.

But if you spend too much money on publicity, what if you lose money on publicity?
In a capital-focused market like the film and television industry, Chinese people don’t know much about Japanese stars, and movie promotion is not good either. Naturally, many of these movies had poor box office performance in China in Su Yan’s previous life.

In Su Yan's previous life in China, as a batch film, it had zero publicity and was released in a rubbish schedule. When the work was released, the main creative team had basically no reputation in China. Then, there was only one Japanese film that was a box office hit: Your Name.

Therefore, Su Yan’s choice of which works to produce in Xia Country does not entirely depend on its performance in China in the previous life.

He became more confident in his judgment of Xia Country's film and television market.

If The Garden of Words could become popular.

In Su Yan's opinion, "A Bouquet of Love" is definitely better than "The Garden of Words".

After redeeming the movie, Su Yan looked at the remaining emotion value.

After hesitating for a while, I decided to exchange the Second Five as well.

Anyway, East Love will continue to contribute a lot of emotional value in the future, as will Madoka Magica which will be broadcast along with it.

Su Yan doesn't have to worry about the problem of emotional exhaustion. After the filming of Magic Circle and East Love is completed, the two movies Five Seconds and Love Like a Bouquet will be produced and released together.

The company now has both money and people. Su Yan is so famous in Xia Country and he has the ability, so there is no need to be too frugal.

A love story like a bouquet of flowers allows Shen Liqian to play the heroine.

As for Second Five, we have to invite other actors to perform from beginning to end.

Um.
Once the emotional value is accumulated, you can redeem all of Makoto Shinkai's Disaster Trilogy and make it into a live-action movie in Xia Country.

After figuring out everything.

Su Yan let out a long breath.

Next, he was busy again.

In the next few days, Su Yan's schedule was extremely busy.

It doesn't mean that he doesn't need to worry about it just because Dong Ai's performance is so good.

You still have to go on the variety shows that you should go on, and you still have to run the advertisements that you should run.

All the press interviews and roadshows have to be done.

Moreover, at this time, when Su Yan was facing interviews with reporters, he would also promote East Love and Madoka Magica together.

After three weeks on the air, "East Love" now firmly holds the first place in ratings and word of mouth.

And this drama "East Love" is somewhat different from Su Yan's previous dramas.

Su Yan’s previous dramas were more likely to attract young people to watch.

But East Love.
A large number of housewives and elderly people taking care of children at home can also watch it with great interest. The viewing threshold is the lowest among all Su Yan's dramas.

On Xingxia.com, the average paid viewing volume of each episode of "Eastern Love" exceeded 10 million after only three weeks of broadcasting, and the online broadcast data was far ahead of others this quarter.

The media also started at this time.

[East Love's ratings ranked first in the quarter, and may surpass Edge Walker to create a miracle! ]

[Today is definitely a special year in the Xiaguo TV drama market. There is a 99% chance that Su Yan will win the ratings champion and runner-up at the end of the year.]

[Sakura TV lost face. Before the show started, they vowed to snipe at East Love, but after the show started, they kept a low profile and kept silent! The possibility of Blood Road surpassing East Love in ratings will be minimized. Now, we can only pray that East Love makes a mistake! ]

[The ratings of Tokyo Love Story in Tokyo far exceed those in other parts of Natsuki. Many people from Sakurajima said that this drama captured the essence of Sakurajima culture.]

[The bold love views of the male and female protagonists are the norm in Sakurajima. People in the mainland complain about Rimi's green tea and Rika's abnormal values. But people in Sakurajima say that these are normal! ]

[The phone call was not a hit, and the woman fell asleep in seconds after confessing her love. The plot of East Love shocked the world, but a large number of TV viewers also accepted the plot at the same speed. What kind of magic does this drama have? ]

[The top-notch female protagonist in Xiaguo's romance dramas. Rika, who has an affair with her married boss, should be scorned by the audience, but in reality, she is supported by a large number of fans. Is it true that in this world, beauty and cuteness can surpass everything? ]

[Shen Liqian has basically secured a nomination for Best Actress at this year's Xia Yan Awards for her role as Akaname Rika. Combined with the fact that she won an award for her role as Miyazono Kaoru last year, Shen Liqian may be able to win the Best Actress award for two consecutive years! ]

[The ratings of Tokyo Love Story's third episode exceeded 5.2%. Su Yan, Shen Liqian, and Gu Qingyuan will become the most sought-after actors in the Xia country's TV drama market.]

[Housewives and middle-aged women are all watching TV series online. The future increase in ratings of East Love may exceed current expectations! ]

For several days.

All data of East Ireland are rising wildly.

It's even better than when Edge of Tomorrow was popular.

All these circumstances have made the atmosphere at Sakura TV extremely depressing.

The screenwriting department was fine. When Su Yan left, the director of the screenwriting department tried his best to keep him and even criticized Yoshitoki Akasaka in person at a high-level meeting.

In the production department, the producers from Yoshitoki Akasaka's faction began to feel depressed.

Among the three major TV stations, Zhongxia TV Station is far ahead of the other two in all performances this year thanks to the support of Su Yan's several dramas.

And Akasaka Yoshitoki, the culprit of all this, was scolded for half an hour by several TV station shareholders at a high-level meeting two days ago.

Everyone in the TV station noticed that the wind had changed.

Hiroyuki Satake, deputy director of the production department and a capable aide to Yoshitoki Akasaka, was dismissed for being responsible for the poor performance of Sakura TV this year.

Aya Ozekida, the director who had been suppressed by Yoshitoki Akasaka for many years in this production department, has now been promoted to the position of deputy director.

After all, it was she who saw Su Yan's potential, and it was she who overcame all objections and ensured that Su Yan received the due treatment in many dramas.

If Yoshitoki Akasaka's suppression of Su Yan was a fault, then Aya Ozeki was naturally meritorious.

Of course, there were also people who spoke in a sarcastic tone at the meeting. If it weren't for Ozeki Tiancai, Su Yan might still be at the bottom of the screenwriter department, without a chance to show his talents, and Sakura TV would not have such an enemy.

But once this statement was made, everyone burst into laughter.
For such a talented person, if no one at Sakura TV promotes him, will he really have no chance of making it in the industry?
It's just a matter of time.

At least judging from the way Su Yan was treated, Ozekida Aya was much better than Akasaka Yoshitoki in the eyes of the top management.

Aya Ozekida, who served as the deputy director of the production department, was also in high spirits and proud of herself.

Last night, I spent the whole night on the phone with my long-time friend, Shinozaki Yumi's mother, Shinozaki Aki. During the process, I intentionally or unintentionally asked about Shinozaki Yumi's movements in the Tokyo area.
Especially the news about Madoka Magica.

The only chance for Yoshitoki Akasaka to turn things around now is that the S-rated fantasy drama "Musou" that the station is currently producing will surpass Madoka Magica when it is aired.

otherwise
Yoshitoki Akasaka is about to be replaced.

According to the information that Kozaki Dacai had inquired about, the members of the Magic Circle crew were collectively cautious about the drama.

I don't understand what the plot setting is about magical girls, but anyway
Judging from the preliminary special effects that have already been produced, the message received is very explosive, and the production quality is even higher than that of Edge Walker.

"Su Yan, Xiao Yumei, come on! Whether I can become the minister depends entirely on you."

In the office, Xiao Guantian Cai looked at the word "Deputy" in the name of the deputy minister in her office, and a hint of ambition flashed in her eyes.

Although the current situation is ridiculous, Xiao Guantian Cai also understands that this is her only chance in this life.

Su Yan puts pressure on Akasaka Yoshitoki from the outside, and she also has to put pressure on Akasaka Yoshitoki within the TV station.
