Chapter 924 Plan
Early in the morning, Shen Yan received a WeChat message from Yang Mi with just three words: "Useless!"

My head is spinning...

I didn't do anything, so why is it useless?

On second thought... it's very possible that they didn't do anything at all!
It's not that I'm unwilling, it's that I dare not!

If things go well, everyone will be happy; if they go badly, it will be a lose-lose situation.

Given Shi Shi's personality, she's more likely to fight to the death!
Therefore, based on probability, Shen Yan chose to do nothing...

Yes, it's definitely not that he can't do it!

I got up, quickly washed up, changed my clothes, and then went to the restaurant…

Breakfast has been bought.

I sat down, picked up the milk, poured myself a glass, and drank it all in one gulp before eating the fried dough sticks. I casually asked, "What are your plans for today?"

"…And you?"

"I... I'll go check on the post-production progress of 'Parasite' first, then there's a video discussion..."

"Video conference?"

“Yes,” Shen Yan nodded, “I’m planning to find Wu Jing, Guo Fan, Lu Yang, Rao Xiaozhi, Chen Sicheng, and Han Yan, and we’ll make a commemorative film together called ‘My People, My Country’!”

"A platter as a gift?"

"Each person will direct a short film of 20-30 minutes, following the timeline and major historical milestones..."

A tribute film?

"Yes, next year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China!"

"So you haven't been filming for the past two years?"

"Go ahead and film it!" Shen Yan shook his head: "I already have three movies and two TV series to film!"

Yang Mi immediately interjected, "Which TV series?"

"A movie called 'Go to the Windy Place' tells the story of a young man who returns to his village to start a business and leads the entire village to prosperity through hard work."

The female protagonist comes to the area for tourism and healing. After staying for a few months, she interacts with the locals, and most importantly, develops a romantic relationship with the male protagonist. Ultimately, they decide to stay and start a business together; it's a work that encourages shared prosperity… There's also one called "Something in the Rain," a romance between an older woman and a younger man!

"What about the movie?"

"《The Mysterious Night at the Film City》, 《The Little Man》, 《The Book of Pan Hengmo》, oh yeah, and 《Detective Chinatown 2》..."

What kind of ink should we use?

"In the Song Dynasty, ink was not only a practical writing tool, but also a collectible item. Scholars would often exchange fine ink sticks as gifts. Sima Guang, Su Shi, and Wen Yanbo were all fond of collecting good ink. Su Shi, in particular, not only made ink himself, but also taught others how to make it, and wrote the book 'In the Book of Pan Heng's Ink'!"

"What made you decide to make a movie like this?"

Shen Yan said casually, "Let's document the great scholar's exile...make a landscape painting film, capturing the scenes in black and white..."

Yang Mi asked curiously, "Why?"

Shen Yan was speechless: "There's no reason, I just wanted to take pictures..."

……

"The Book of Pan Hengmo" is actually the movie that Shen Yan wanted to make after reading "The Fish Manual of Zishan"!
Films about Confucianism and scholar-officials, historical subjects like these, should ideally be told to the world by us, but "The Tale of the Fish of Mount Zi" is a Korean film.

The exiled protagonist stands alone under the vast sky, facing the waves crashing against the rocks, drunkenly composing poetry, before collapsing into the surging current…

The story of "Zishan Fish Manual" can be simply described as the story of a Korean scholar-official who was exiled.

I saw a comment: "If I had an alien friend, I would recommend this movie to them, so they could see what we humans have accomplished and appreciate the achievements of the human species in areas such as humanistic care, philosophical thought, political systems, and cinematic art..."

Another comment: Stars, ocean, society, politics, thought, desire, reason, civilization... everything in the universe comes together!
Look at this scene, it's so beautiful!
This is also a way of promoting Hainan...

……

After finishing breakfast, Shen Yan stood up: "What are your plans for today?"

Shishi: "Let's go shopping, buy some things, and then go to a spa!"

"Okay... I'll be going now."

"What time are you coming home tonight?" Shen Yan asked, puzzled. "I'm going home this afternoon..."

When are you going to Hainan?

"My flight is tomorrow..."

Shishi saw him to the door, then whispered, "Mimi also wants to go to Sanya for the New Year..."

As Shen Yan changed his shoes, he casually said, "Sure, let's go..."

"That's not a good idea...she's with us..."

Shen Yan said, "She's quite pitiful. She doesn't have a boyfriend or a girlfriend, and you're her only best friend. If you don't take her with you, who will?"

"...That's true..."

Shen Yan leaned in and kissed her: "Let's go!"

……

As soon as he got in the car, Shen Yan immediately texted Yang Mi, "Are you going to Sanya?"

"right…"

"What do you want to do?"

"Yeah, I want to get fucked!"

"...I mean, it's the Lunar New Year, and you're not home with your parents..."

Yang Mi replied instantly: "I'll bring my parents along!"

After thinking for a moment, Shen Yancai replied, "Okay, I'll have them help me rent another place."

"We need to be close by, preferably upstairs or downstairs... that way, it'll be easier to relay the baton!"

relay?

Upon seeing this word, Shen Yan unconsciously recalled some scenes he had witnessed...

Shaking his head, he quickly banished the lewd thoughts from his mind, and then replied righteously, "I'll do my best!"

Renting a two-story house... that's probably unlikely. Shen Yan simply bought a villa in Sanya...

Grandpa and Grandma, Second Uncle and Second Aunt, and Shishi's family can all fit. Actually, even if Yang Mi's family were included, it wouldn't be a problem...

But this arrangement is definitely not a good one…

Let's just rent one next door!

As for the relay…

It's obviously a joke!

I opened Weibo and checked the trending topics... they were mostly about the pre-sale status of "Monster Hunt 2"...

Currently, pre-sales for the Spring Festival films have already begun…

Monster Hunt 2 undoubtedly topped the pre-sale charts!

—Although "Monster Hunt 2" has not yet been released, it has already established licensing and joint marketing partnerships with nearly 60 brands, including McDonald's, Master Kong, and Want Want, with licensing fees alone reaching tens of millions of yuan.

The collaboration between multiple brands and the film helped "Monster Hunt 2" surpass 5000 million yuan in pre-sales during the Spring Festival!
Second on the list is "Detective Chinatown Prequel," followed by "Operation Red Sea"—"The Monkey King 3" is confirmed for a Valentine's Day release…

Since they've decided to release the film before the official start of the Spring Festival film season, they must either be extremely confident or they've given up on the Spring Festival season altogether...

It's most likely the second one!
That's why they're promoting Zhao Liying!

To be honest, the scale and methods of promotion for "Monster Hunt 2" are unprecedented in the Chinese film industry. Such a large-scale promotion sets the tone for the entire film extremely high, to the point that any issues are amplified to an extreme degree by the intensity of the promotion.

If the quality can't support this level of publicity, the result will be a complete collapse.

I don't quite understand Bill Kong. Does he really think that "Monster Hunt 2" can support a box office of over 50 billion?

You say he doesn't understand film as a producer? Impossible. He made "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," "Hero," and more...

You want to say he understands?
He bet heavily on "Monster Hunt 2"...
