Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 549 Web Series (44)

Yan Ge is really quite wronged...

Heaven and earth conscience!

He didn't initiate the whole thing at all.

He even tried to stop...

It was unsuccessful!

After the plane took off, Shen Yan lay back in his chair and suddenly felt that the whole thing had been planned for a long time!
You see, under normal circumstances, Shen Yan wouldn't just let any woman into his room.

Zhao Liying was able to enter the room because she was a friend…

First, we chatted, then I deliberately mentioned wanting to drink, and even took out the red wine I had brought!

Then, fueled by alcohol, they made a comeback...

She knew that Shen Yan would not go against the wishes of his female comrades.

Good heavens, her scheming is unfathomable!

Shen Yan turned his head and glanced at Zhao Liying, who was sleeping with her eyes half-closed...

She still has her hair in a bun, and her cheeks are pouting; she looks quite cute…

She doesn't seem like a smart person like Yang Zi!
Then I realized I was overthinking it.

The whole thing was just a coincidence!

If I hadn't opened the door and let her in, none of this would have happened.

As for what happens next…

She seemed pretty indifferent...

That's true, after all, I spent some time at the bottom of the industry, so I've long since become indifferent to these things...

Forget it, I'll just go to sleep!
……

Spring Festival Gala…

It was not a party.
It's just an atmosphere.

Just like firecrackers and fireworks, they're just something to add a festive atmosphere to New Year's Eve.

And you insist on saying the Spring Festival Gala is bad, not as good as before…

That would be hard on yourself.

During the Lunar New Year, the main focus is on reuniting with family and having a New Year's Eve dinner.

Just like eating dumplings during Chinese New Year, whether they taste good or not, you have to eat them; it becomes a habit.

The person who makes dumplings wants to make them well, and the person eating them can eat more if they think they taste good, or less if they don't.

Although Feng Xiaogang is the director, the overall structure is fixed, and with a powerful judging panel there, he can't change it, and no one can change it!
On one hand, there are discerning public expectations for the Spring Festival Gala, who want to see down-to-earth programs; on the other hand, there is pressure from above to ensure that the program can convey certain ideas.

The directors of the Spring Festival Gala are caught in a dilemma, trying to strike a balance between not angering the public and satisfying the higher-ups. Any slightly outstanding program will be cut, and in the end, the selected programs become mediocre at best...

You can have changes, but you can't have originality!
Anything new is considered innovation, which is unacceptable for the Spring Festival Gala…

Let alone Feng Xiaogang, even Shen Yanshang wouldn't do!

Shen Yan sang a solo song called "The Nameless Man".

"~I just want to personally touch, every moment I bend over, whether the soaked footprints I leave behind are worth it~ If you feel the same way, then we are friends on the same path~"

To all those who are upright yet ordinary;

To the nameless one, I raise a glass to you;

Respect to your silence and every roar;

I admire your hunched back as you climb the mountain to higher ground;
Live life to the fullest under the vast sky above!

Shen Yan's singing style is much higher, but it's still told in a gentle, narrative way...

When winter comes in my hometown, after the train arrives at the station
The winds of childhood blow again, bringing back memories of simple joy. On a familiar street, someone will call out your name with tenderness!

Oh, he sang live!

He was, after all, the first generation of King of Singers…

After finishing his song, he bowed slightly, stepped off the stage, and prepared to go home.

Grandpa, Grandma, and my second uncle's family all came to Beijing. It's Chinese New Year, after all, all about family reunion!

……

My second uncle is now a well-known TV drama director.

Having directed three anti-Japanese war dramas, he recently took on a new project called "Criminal Police Captain," co-directed by someone else, with Lai Mukuan as the overall director…

Grandpa asked curiously, "Can crime dramas be made now?"

“Yes, that’s fine,” my second uncle explained. “It’s produced by SMG and based on a true story. Jiangsu TV has already bought the broadcasting rights!”

Here's the thing: a few years ago there was a ban on crime dramas!
It's not actually a ban on crime dramas; to be precise, it's a ban on crime dramas being broadcast during prime time...

We encourage the broadcast of excellent films and television dramas suitable for teenagers during this time slot.

This ban…

There is some truth to that, because many crime dramas at the time had already deviated from the crime itself, and the crime scenes were shown without any censorship!

It does have a negative impact on underage viewers.

Especially in crime dramas, the scenes depicting villainous characters are always set in nightlife entertainment venues, hotels, and the like, and the scenes are often quite vulgar...

To be honest, China's legal education in those years was really powerful!

When I was in elementary school, they posted many posters directly in the school's display window, featuring mostly graphic, unedited photos of crime scenes, accompanied by case descriptions...

It's the kind of show that gives you nightmares!
This is indeed a bit cruel for minors.

"After my second uncle finished filming 'Criminal Police Captain,' he gained some experience, and our company bought the IP for a series called 'Yu Zui'..."

"Yu Zui?"

"It's about a police academy graduate who goes undercover!"

My second uncle immediately questioned, "A police academy graduate going undercover? How is that possible!"

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

"Undercover work, also known as disguise investigation, generally means we wouldn't use a fresh-faced police academy graduate..."

"What?"

"If you don't have a strong mentality, you'll easily lose your temper..."

Above?

Okay, I heard that during the military exercise, the young man got carried away and grabbed some explosives, crawling under the enemy tank, intending to take them both with him...

When young men get carried away, they can indeed do many surprising things…

Shen Yan waved his hand: "This is adapted from a web novel. If you think it's inappropriate, find a screenwriter to rewrite it..."

"Is it too explicit?"

"If it's not broadcast on TV, but on an online platform, the content can be a little more daring..."

My second uncle immediately looked disgusted: "Huh? A web series!"

Shen Yan: "What's wrong? Can't watch the web series? 'My Love from the Star' almost became a web series. If CCTV's drama production center hadn't gotten involved, I would have known it would have partnered with iQiyi or Tencent..."

"In recent years, in order to attract users, domestic video websites have begun to actively invest in the production of web dramas. Web dramas have gained hype, audiences, and the support of video website platforms; what they lack now is high-quality content!"

"But I've heard that web dramas strive for a 'web-friendly' feel... the more poorly made they are, the more influential they become!"

Shen Yan was speechless: "Who said that?"

"Many people say that!"

"Nonsense," Shen Yan shook his head: "Second Uncle, the most-watched drama on iQiyi is 'Love Through a Millennium,' with nearly 15 billion views. The most-watched drama on Tencent Video is 'My Love from the Star,' with over 40 billion views... Including Youku, the most-watched dramas on the site are all Hong Kong dramas, and these are all TV series!"

Well, many people might not know this, but in fact, the most-watched TV series on Youku in recent years is the Louis Koo version of "The Return of the Condor Heroes"...

After a pause, Shen Yan added, "The cost per episode of 'Yu Zui' can be 300 million!"

"300 million? That's so high! How will that website break even?"

Shen Yan: "We'll get members! We currently have over 1 billion internet users, and all the major video platforms have over 10 million registered users. If even 10% of them become members, that's tens of millions of yuan in revenue per month!"

My second uncle nodded: "Okay, I'll take a look first..."
