Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 344 Aftermath
Jiang Xiaoling's eyes turned red, and the moment the sentimental BGM sounded, she seemed to have lost her soul.

The Code Geass series of works specifically uses a lot of words and more than ten minutes of plot to lay the groundwork, and only depicts the deaths of four characters.

Euphemia, Shirley, Lolo and Lelouch.

Among them, Lelouch's death was undoubtedly the most shocking, painful, but also the most touching for the audience.

Jiang Xiaoling admitted that this approach was romantic and unrealistic.

How is it possible in the real world that the master of the world would sacrifice himself for peace and stage such a situation?
But when people watch TV dramas, they see things that don’t exist in the real world.

Jiang Xiaoling felt sad but also moved and identified with Lelouch's ending.

So, is this Lelouch's plan?
Is it possible that he faked his death?
In this drama, Lelouch has faked his death many times. This time, please, just fake your death.
But the final result disappointed Jiang Xiaoling.

In the plot, time passes quickly and Lelouch dies.

Cornelia takes over, and all the Black Knights' leaders are released.

Nunnally becomes the leader of the Super United States.

Everything went according to Lelouch's plan.

Peace, come.
Although this peace is temporary, as human beings develop, friction will intensify, conflicts will escalate, and war will come again one day in the future.

But for Lelouch, the limit of what he can do is to keep the world at peace for an era.

The end of the story is CC, played by Zhuang Yuxin, lying on the straw in the carriage.
The ending of the drama was also sublimated because of Lelouch's choice.

His original intention was to destroy Britannia.

In other words, it is to destroy his father Xia Lulu.

But after doing all this he chose to exchange his death for peace.

At this moment, the image of Lelouch has been fixed in the hearts of fans.

It was just like the excitement of a group of Lelouch fans in Su Yan’s previous life on the day the work was completed.

Tonight, the Code Geass fans in Summer Country went completely crazy and agitated.

A large number of fans began to attack Su Yan’s company’s official website and major online broadcasting platforms.

"Is this the end? Who are you looking down on? Give me a third season."

"CC is not dead yet, and the contract is not over yet, so why should Lelouch die? This won't do, Su Yan, you bastard, bring Lelouch back to life for me."

"I cried so hard late at night. In Su Yan's previous works, the male protagonists were often suppressed by the female protagonists, but Lelouch is different. I love this character."

"Rest in peace, Lelouch. I will never forget this day."

"Even if there's no third season, at least release some extra episodes. Do you think our fans can't afford it?"

"Su Yan, get up. Can you sleep at your age? You can sleep, but I can't! I'm forty years old, and I was so angry about the ending where Lelouch and CC didn't end up together that I threw away my midnight snack."

"Why? For Su Yan, it's normal to let Lelouch live, right? Suzaku can pretend to be zeto for his whole life. Wouldn't it be good for Lelouch to fake his death and get plastic surgery, and live his whole life in anonymity?"

"The person above is thinking too much. Lelouch voluntarily gave up the throne and rights. Do you know what this means? Lelouch wants to be an ordinary person? Do you think the Black Knights, Lelouch's sister Cornelia, and a group of people in the Britannia Empire who have a deep hatred for Lelouch will agree? Only when Lelouch is really dead, these people will feel at ease."

"That's right. People who take the initiative to step down from the throne of power basically can't have a good end. This has been proven many times in history. Don't say there are emperors who gave up the throne to their sons and became the emperor emeritus and had a good end. That's just a title. Before the emperor emeritus dies, the emperor is just a puppet. TV dramas won't include these things, but as viewers, you should be aware of this."

"This may be the most dignified ending for Lelouch."

"Ah, it's hard to accept. Actually, Su Yan may have other ways to break the situation, right?"

"Other ways to break the impasse? That is to kill all the Black Knights and rule the world dictatorially. With Lelouch's ability, even if he rules dictatorially, the world will surely prosper during his term. The only people sacrificed are Lelouch's former subordinates, his sisters, brothers, and leaders of various forces captured by him. However, Lelouch did not do so. A dictatorial peace is also peace, but if Lelouch does not want to kill these friends, or even Nunnally, he can only kill himself."

"My chest is blocked."

"It may take me weeks to recover."

“No more”

"I don't care. I'm here to watch the TV series, not to watch you analyze the political situation in Lelouch's world. Even if this is the case, I want Lelouch to come back to life. Su Yan, shoot the third season for me~"

Su Yan's fans kept making noise all night long.

The next day, a group of fans held a sit-in protest downstairs of Su Yan's office building in Tokyo.

Just like Su Yan’s previous life, people in the Sakurajima area still like this, but they definitely won’t be influenced by their bare faces.

What a joke, Code Geass is so great at this ending. If it's changed, the charm of the work will definitely be greatly reduced.

The production company of Lelouch of the Previous Life has not made up its mind to release a third season for this popular and profitable IP to make money from the character of Lelouch for so many years. They have only released some boring theatrical versions to cheat fans' money. Su Yan ignored the fact that the production company of Lelouch of the Previous Life had a moral integrity that was not as good as that of the previous life.

There is nothing Su Yan, who likes to surround him, can do. At most he can work from home. After a while, when the fans’ anger subsides, they will naturally understand the excellence of this ending.

However, this time, Lelouch's continued popularity was beyond Su Yan's imagination.

The last episode's ratings of 7.46% are just superficial.

The abuse against Su Yan on the Internet became more and more intense day by day, and as a result, various mecha peripherals and figures of Lelouch became best-sellers both overseas and domestically.

The copyright fee for the TV series itself was sold for hundreds of millions, and the advertising placement fee was also hundreds of millions. The share of the broadcasting on the online broadcasting platform was as much as 200 to 300 million, but the share of the sales of Lelouch's peripheral products still exceeded these.

If this work wasn't suitable for making a game, Su Yan would have produced it in advance.

Su Yan sighed inwardly, and turned his attention to the Gundam SEED TV series that will be aired next summer.
As the TV series is broadcast, games and other derivative products will definitely be launched together.

The ending of Code Geass also slightly reduced the activity of Su Yan and Dimension Film and Television Company in the market.

But just half a month later, Dimension Pictures began to promote Howl's Moving Castle and the third Rurouni Kenshin movie, which were scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival.

However, during this year's Spring Festival, Su Yan did not do everything himself like he did in previous years, such as walking around, holding fan meetings and press meetings, and helping to promote the work.

For the current Xiaguo film and television industry.

Even if Su Yan doesn't do these, as long as the work is promoted with the four words "Screenwriter: Su Yan".

This works better than anything else.

What is the so-called fan circle of Su Yan in his previous life in front of Su Yan’s fans?
The title of "traffic star" actually means that this person has nothing good except his face.

In the film and television industry in Xia Country, Su Yan is not only the number one in traffic, but also has creative ability and the talent he has demonstrated. Who can question it?
There is no room for doubt about the fan loyalty accumulated over nine years.

Although they will criticize the plots of Su Yan's works in various ways, their support will not decrease at all when Su Yan has a new work online. At most, they will criticize Su Yan while following his works.

Therefore, after entering January, the popularity of Code Geass in the film and television market began to decline, and was replaced by topics such as Kenshin Movie and Howl's Moving Castle Movie.

After Su Yan was freed from these complicated affairs, he started to do other work.

Before the end of Code Geass, Su Yan had a series of ideas.

Now that the emotion value in the system space has accumulated, Su Yan does not procrastinate.

Enter the system space and rush straight to the target.

In the East Sea chapter of One Piece, all the chapters of Naruto from the beginning to the end of the Chunin Exam are exchanged.

One is One Piece, whose IP is worth more than 20 billion US dollars in Su Yan’s previous life, and the other is Naruto, whose IP is worth more than 10 billion US dollars in Su Yan’s previous life.

Even if he only exchanged less than one-tenth of the length of each work, Su Yan's emotional value accumulated from the fsn series, the Rurouni Kenshin movie, Weathering with You, and the Code Geass TV series was cleared out.

If Naruto were to be filmed as a TV series in Xia Country, with a bunch of original and nostalgic plots from the previous life removed and the plot made more concise, it would probably take at least 20 seasons to film it, based on the ideal broadcast plan of airing a special effects battle drama for two seasons a year and using the rest of the time to make special effects.

It will take Su Yan ten years to finish broadcasting Naruto, and all this depends on whether his special effects production partners can withstand such high-intensity work and perform without any slack.

Similarly, One Piece is even longer. If it is really to be made into a TV series, even if the plot is refined and some less exciting chapters like Fishman Island and Dressrosa are compressed, it will still take at least fifteen years, or even more than twenty years to be broadcast and completed.

Therefore, although the exchange price of the emotional values ​​of the two works is expensive, Su Yan is not worried about losing money at all.

With such a long length, the emotional value that the work has brought to Su Yan over the past ten or twenty years will definitely be returned several times, and then the returned emotional value will be used to exchange for the plot of the following chapters. And it will bring tens of billions of profits to the company.

As for the two works, they failed in the Xia Kingdom dimension.

Su Yan had never thought about this kind of thing.

There is only one reason why this work, which was popular all over the world in the previous life, cannot be popular in the Xia Kingdom.

It's not that the works are not good enough, it's that the capital to promote them is not strong enough. For Su Yan now, his global influence is much stronger than Shueisha, the serializing company of his two works in his previous life.

After exchanging the early chapters of the two works, Su Yan began to focus on other aspects.

For so long, Su Yan has actually been outsourcing the special effects of his works to some top companies in the industry.

But now that the company has a long-term profitable project, the demand for special effects is particularly great.

Outsourcing must continue. The special effects production of so many works cannot be taken over by just one or two companies.

But Su Yan plans to train some personnel for his own special effects department.

Some special effects scenes that are not difficult, time-consuming or labor-intensive are handed over to partners.

Su Yan plans to have his own people do those shots that require very sophisticated special effects.

So as the scripts for the two works began to be written, Su Yan and Shinozaki Ikumi also began to use the money in their accounts to look for some special effects production companies overseas in Xiaguo that have strong production capabilities but not very ideal performance and whose owners are willing to sell.

The three major divisions of Su Yan's company, TV series, movies, and games, have an extremely terrifying demand for high-end talents in this field.

Su Yan doesn’t have to worry about not being able to support this team given his strength.

The actions of Dimension Films and Television Company in the industry cannot be concealed from its peers.

Everyone's eyes are full of curiosity now.

Why is Su Yan recruiting people from all over Xia Country and the world?
If it's just a movie or TV show, is it necessary to recruit so many top special effects talents? And the salary offered is so unfair?
Just when Su Yan's colleagues were talking about him.

This year's Spring Festival season has begun.

Contrary to what the outside world initially expected, it was thought that this year's Spring Festival box office would be a two-way competition between Rurouni Kenshin and Howl's Moving Castle.

After all, for three or four consecutive years, the box office champion of Xiaguo's Spring Festival was won by Su Yan's works. Everyone thought that this year Su Yan's work would easily win this honor again.

However, during the Spring Festival, a fantasy romance movie "Dream Night" emerged as a dark horse among the seven other movies.

Although the box office was strongly suppressed by the third Rurouni Kenshin movie and Haltan's Moving Castle in the first two days of the Spring Festival.

But from the third day, word of mouth started to pick up, and its screenings and box office also increased rapidly.

The single-day box office was even less than 10 million behind Howl's Moving Castle and the third Rurouni Kenshin movie.

The box office of the three films are neck and neck.

After a fierce competition in the first seven days of the Spring Festival box office, Howl's Moving Castle ranked first with 19.8 billion yuan, and Rurouni Kenshin: The Third Movie ranked second with 18.96 billion yuan.

As for Dream Night, it ranked third on the box office list with a box office of 18.81 billion.

This situation surprised a group of investors in Xiaguo's film industry.

You have to know that with Su Yan's current popularity, his movie will definitely have a huge advantage in the first few days before it is released.

However, this Dream Night movie only ranked third at the box office with a slight disadvantage due to the huge publicity of Su Yan's works and the popularity of fans.

This is simply outrageous.

Even Su Yan went to the cinema to watch this movie despite his busy schedule.

Subsequently
He watched the movie three times over the next two days.

Because it is really beautiful.

Moreover, Su Yan could feel that both the director and the screenwriter not only learned from the advantages of his previous works, but also made innovations on this basis.

But Dream Night’s pursuit of his mouth ends here.

After the Spring Festival, Su Yan has a huge fan base and attracts a considerable number of audiences even on weekdays.

The box office of Dream Night declined rapidly.

The box office growth of Howl's Moving Castle and Rurouni Kenshin is still normal.

But the movie "Dream Night" seemed to be a bit powerless, and the total box office forecast also dropped from the 26 billion predicted by the media to around billion.

The situation that the market wanted to see, Su Yan's defeat, did not occur.

The box office battle during the Spring Festival was decided on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

But this Spring Festival period also allowed the Xia country's film and television industry to see opportunities.

The situation that had been crushed by Su Yan's strong rule for several years seemed to have the possibility of being broken.

This year, a dark horse emerged in Dream Night. What about next year and the year after?

It's impossible for Su Yan to always be number one.

There will always be someone who will learn from him and then surpass him.

Su Yan was very clear about this.

However, he was not panicked at all when he looked at the series of classic masterpieces that had not yet been taken out in the system space.

However, Su Yan began to send people to contact the team that produced the movie Dream Night.

If the company team wants to create any work next time, they can cooperate with Dimension Film and Television. If they lack funds, Dimension Film and Television can invest in them.

Su Yan is confirmed to win the Spring Festival box office championship for the third time.

Shinozaki Ikumi's tangled mood eased a little.

A few days ago, she really thought that the movie Dream Night had a chance to overtake.

"You know, if we didn't have so many fans supporting us, would we have really been overtaken by the box office?" Shinozaki Ikumi asked Su Yan.

"Maybe." Su Yan said with a smile.

"But that's not a bad thing. There are some powerful competing companies in Xia Country. Isn't it good to expand the market? If I really lose, I will definitely win back and get my revenge!"

"I don't understand why you are so confident." Shinozaki Yumi shook her head, but did not doubt Su Yandu's words.

Su Yan's arrogance is well-founded.

Who knows what other masterpieces Su Yan has in mind besides Rurouni Kenshin and Moving Castle?

"The first week of the Spring Festival movie season is over. Next, we can take a break for a while." Shinozaki Ikumi changed the subject and her eyes began to show anticipation.

"I have to travel for a month at least!"

"Rest?" Su Yan asked with a smile.

“It’s not that easy.”

"What do you mean? Gundam SEED and Suzuya's Journey movie will not be released until July. As for the broadcast of Moving Castle and Kenshin movie, my subordinates will be responsible for it." Shinozaki Ikumi said.

During these five months, even if she and Su Yan left the company for a month or two, there would be no problem in keeping the business running.

While Shinozaki Yumi was speaking, Su Yan also took out two file bags.

"I'm sorry, but your vacation will be postponed for now. We're about to start preparations for these two works."

"One Piece? Naruto?" Shinozaki Ikumi looked at the information in the file bag, felt the heavy weight of the script and the character design information, and her expression changed.

This is the heaviest script file bag Su Yan has ever taken out!

How long are the scripts of these two works?
And Su Yan, how come you have a new script?
Aren’t you tired? Don’t you need to rest?
The broadcasting schedule for Gundam SEED and Gundam Z will start from July this year and end in the Spring Festival period next year.

You actually have two TV drama scripts?

"These two are the long TV series I told you about before," Su Yan said.

"For such a long-form work, the preparation period is long, and the casting cannot be sloppy. So." Su Yan said with a smile.

"You and I will be busy in the next few months."

Shinozaki Ikumi had a dazed expression, then helpless, she sighed, and finally became full of fighting spirit!
