Chapter 202 ‘High Concept’

(Last chapter has been significantly revised)

Yang Mi's sudden request for leave killed the meeting. Director Yang nodded amidst the surprised eyes of everyone, and Li Suan, who suddenly became angry, did not say another word.

The meeting ended here and lasted less than thirty minutes.

Gao Hu's room, he had just entered the door, and before he had time to think about it, Lao Yao's voice sounded outside the door.

"Gao Hu! Gao Hu!"

The iconic hoarse voice made Gao Hu frown, but when he opened the door and saw Lao Yao, he smiled happily.

"Yao Yao, you performed really well today."

Lao Yao came into the room carefree: "I know how I behave, but your behavior is not good, your words are poor."

"I mainly want to cooperate with you."

"Stop talking nonsense to me. We agreed that I would fire the cannons and you would finish. It's good now. Li really hates me, but nothing will happen to me without you!"

Gao Hu was embarrassed by Lao Yao's questioning: "You are serious, aren't you? As long as we persuade Director Yang, we still have the final say in this group."

Lao Yao was not fooled: "I've never heard of anyone working in lighting as a director, but there are quite a few of you who are backgrounds in photography and are working as directors. Lao Gao, I want to ask you to speak plainly today. What's next?

Don’t want to do it?”

Gao Hu flinched a little: "It's not impossible to do it, but Li is a young master, he seems to know how to do it."

"You know what you do? How can we know what we do? Let me tell you, this is the chance. When Director Xiao Yang takes a seat, will we still have such a good opportunity?"

Lao Yao's words touched Gao Hu. Gao Hu thought about it and felt that he had to continue taking this risk.

"Let's go find Director Xiao Yang."

Lao Yao and Gao Hu left the house immediately in order to find Director Xiao Yang and persuade him to stick to his artistic pursuits.

What the two of them want to do is also common in the Chinese team, which is to make extra money by taking advantage of the sidelines.

There is a very magical thing that outsiders generally don’t know. It is that in Chinese film crews, the loss rate of various types of film and television equipment is quite high. The camera is too big to target, but similar lighting bulbs, photography lenses, and props

The production looks inconspicuous, but the price is quite expensive.

In Director Yang's group, Lao Yao and Gao Hu were both conscientious in their work, but as soon as they came out, they wanted to find someone to take advantage of.

Because they followed Director Yang to pursue art a few years ago, they didn't have much money, but it was different after they came out. There were colleagues who worked on unknown crews and ate a lot of fat. They all saw it with their own eyes.

Li Suan's film is about making money in the market, and director Xiao Yang wants reputation and experience, but the people in the team are all focused on the tens of millions of production fees.

Even if the movie becomes popular, like Lao Yao and Gao Hu, the most they can get is a red envelope, but if they get a kickback through equipment wear and tear, they can earn real money.

At the door of Director Xiao Yang's room, Gao Hu knocked on the door. Director Xiao Yang welcomed him and Lao Yao in. The two had already discussed it and continued to praise Director Xiao Yang's 'high concept' that linked love with the Gobi Desert.

Shot in remote locations, exposed to wind and sun.

That's a lot of oil and water.

…

Li Suan is conducting a video conference. In the video, he looks very energetic. Yang Mi is sitting in front of Li Suan. This is behind the camera, so he is never in the frame.

Li Suan listened to the conversation on the other side of the camera and braced himself so that he would not close his eyes.

During the entire meeting with Sina, he only listened to one thing: Sina was crying about poverty.

"Twinkle Twinkle Star" is Li Suan's second novel that will be updated on Sina Weibo. The full text is less than 300,000 words, but Li Suan wants a share of Sina's advertising profits.

Based on the fact that "Passing By Your Past World" has been read more than 200 million times online, Li calculated that his income before royalties was 35 million, and after tax it was 19 million. But these are in the face of Sina's advertising revenue.

, still not worth mentioning.

Although he knew that Sina was very profitable, he had to listen to the other party's cry of poverty. When the other party had finished speaking, it was Li Suan's turn to speak, but he didn't know what to say.

There is only one reason, I am too sleepy.

Yang Mi picked up a written note and pasted it on the computer screen. After Li calculated it, he could clearly see the four words "Tencent Weibo" written on it.

Li Suan's thinking suddenly became clear: "I understand your difficulties, but Tencent has contacted me and hopes that I will update the novel on Tencent Weibo.

I know that the traffic there may not be as good as Sina, but the conditions proposed by Tencent are really quite generous. I am very satisfied with the cooperation with you. It is our first cooperation and we have got along well. But if our cooperation is going to enter the next stage

,I hope..."

Tencent Weibo was launched in 2010, and is less than one year younger than Sina Weibo. Although Sina Weibo dominated the world ten years later, Tencent's status in the eyes of Sina colleagues is now a close second.

In the next half hour, Sina presented facts and reasons to Li Suan, trying to highlight that Sina is the authentic Chinese Weibo, but Li Suan's attitude was that you get the money.

At the end of the meeting, Yang Mi had brought the third cup of coffee, and Li Suan swallowed it in large gulps. Twenty minutes later, there was still a meeting with Cai Yinong and Tang Ren.

Liu Shishi wants to help Li Suan promote the new book "Yishu" on the Internet. The web series cooperating with Tang Dynasty has been jointly submitted to Tencent by Tang Dynasty and Jiaxing.

Tencent Video will meet tomorrow morning, and the other party is also very interested in Li Shuan's terms for sharing the online drama.

Web dramas generally have two income models, one is buyout, which depends on the quality of the drama, and is a one-time deal.

The other is to share. Tencent Video is only used as a broadcast channel, and there will be certain support depending on the quality of the work. However, a large amount of publicity during production must be carried out by Tangren and Jiaxing themselves.

Later, a certain actor earned 2.08 million a day, which could be part of his promotional expenses.

In order to continue to endure, Li Suan stood up directly. Suddenly he felt a little dizzy and staggered. However, he quickly helped him with his eyes and hands.

"It's okay, I'm just tired."

After standing firm, Li Suan smiled and comforted him. He didn't want to show off his power but said, "Can the ring be returned?"

Li was happy, but he didn't dare to sit down: "It's custom-made. If you return it, it will be gone. What about such a big diamond? Don't you feel bad about it?"

"I feel sorry for you!" Yang Mi looked up at him, with complaints and grievances on his face.

Li Suan hugged him comfortingly: "Don't worry, I haven't let you through the door yet, you won't die."

"Bah, bah, bah, nonsense!"

Yang Mi just let him hug her, and then said worriedly: "I didn't cause you any trouble at the meeting, right?"

"What trouble?"

"I asked for leave from Director Yang." Yang Mi continued: "I just felt that you needed someone to help you at that time, even if it could just delay it for a while."

Maybe it was because he hadn't slept for too long and the effect of coffee was relatively limited. Li Suan said drowsily: "I need help, but I want those people to understand my situation and what time it is now. But too much

It’s difficult, it looks like it’s going to be hard to get back.”

The journey of capitalism into the entertainment industry was not smooth. First, I was taken advantage of for five or six years. After I figured out the capital formula, people like Lao Yao and Gao Hu basically had to stay in the group of the big director.

Because the core of the lower-level crew is young fresh meat. They are easy to control and copy. They have no ability but have their own traffic. They are easy to promote and have topics at the same time. The films they film do not require excellent acting skills, twists and turns of the story and

Excellent production, and only requires younger fans, and a bloody plot.

Using this fresh meat was much easier at the beginning than serving senior men like Lao Yao and Gao Hu.

Li Shuan closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them again immediately. The fragrance in Yang Mi's hair was so good that he felt sleepy after smelling it.

He said: "You have to do me a favor."

"Um."

"Don't even ask what the business is?"

Yang Mi looked up at him: "I'll help you with whatever you do."

Li Suan looked at her and said, "Then help me drive Shishi Liu away."

"What's wrong with her?"

"She made an appointment with me to go to Bar Street tonight. She wants to take revenge on society."

It's already warm in Nanjing at the end of March. Although spring clothes are still needed to keep out the cold, the girls on the street are already looking pretty.

Wearing sunglasses and hot pants, Liu Shishi was standing guard on a bar street in Nanjing, his eyes fixed on his mobile phone.

While she was sending text messages to Li Suan, she kept saying thank you to the teacher to show her respect.

At the same time, he sent another text message to Yang Mi, saying, sister, I am doing it for you.

That's right, when it comes to breaking up, it's better to enjoy it alone than to enjoy it together. A woman who has just experienced an emotional shock always hopes that someone will seek justice... If there is really no such person, then do it yourself.

She invited Li Suan over today just to reveal his true identity as a scumbag in front of Yang Mi... But God knows that earlier today, she was still thinking about being a scumbag and wreaking havoc on the world.

The weather in early spring is the most suitable for couples to go on a date. The streets are full of pairs and walking hormones are everywhere.

There was still no response on the phone. Liu Shishi looked at the pedestrians coming and going and was fed a mouthful of dog food.

Taking out the bottle of whiskey that was one-third full, Shishi Liu sat directly on the roadside, eating dog food and drinking wine.

Eating a piece of dog food will make her feel more resentful towards the scumbag. Taking a sip of wine will make her feel aggrieved.

She drank slowly, drank about a third of the whiskey, and took out her phone again.

Then she looked at the screen of her mobile phone, which showed only her wishful thinking of leaving a message, and a big teardrop slipped from behind her sunglasses.

Yang Mi and Li Suan didn’t reply to any of them.

There were more and more tears, and at this moment, countless grievances rushed into her heart.

The scumbag has no interest, my best friend is unreliable, and I am the clown.

She took off her sunglasses and began to wipe her tears. The passers-by had already paid attention to her. She got up and walked along the street. The more she walked, the more she felt embarrassed. She directly called Yang Mi and sent an accusation.

"Are you a friend?! I'm here to help you! You have to recognize the true face of the scumbag!"

Yang Mi was stunned when he heard Liu Shishi's cry. Seeing Li Suan having a meeting with Cai Yinong there, he took his cell phone and entered the bathroom.

She answered the phone again, and the call was full of Liu Shishi's random thoughts, complaining about her disregard for sisterhood, but Yang Mi was not interested in listening at all at this time.

"Can you calm down?"

On the bar street, Yang Mi's cold voice was heard, and Shishi Liu said drunkenly: "I can't calm down, I can't calm down, why should I be calm!"

Yang Mi could tell that Shishi Liu was drunk, so he could only say: "Don't move where you are, I'll go find you."

"It's useless for you to come. The plan failed. Your man won't come at all..."

As he spoke, Shishi Liu felt aggrieved again: "Isn't it particularly embarrassing for me to be like this? Just like a clown, I don't know why I am like this..."

Hearing the other person cry again, Yang Mi had no choice. She walked out of the bathroom, told Li Suan that she was going out, then put on her bag and walked out.

Cai Yinong's meeting here is a multi-party meeting, mainly looking at Tang Dynasty's publicity plan. Web dramas are still an emerging concept at this time. Even if they are luxuriously produced, they may damage Liu Shishi's possible commercial value.

Sixteen episodes of high-quality online dramas, a concept that only emerged after seven or eight years.

What Li Shuan really wants to convince is the Tangren team, because these days high concepts are everywhere, and there are only a few tracks that can see the light of day alive.

Li Suan's mind was already confused at this time. He privately sent a WeChat message to Cai Yinong, leaving more specific discussions for later.

After the meeting ended, Li Shuan leaned directly on the sofa, but with his eyes closed, he couldn't fall asleep.

‘Can you use me?’ Li Shuan took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Yang Mi, but Yang Mi just replied.

'Good night.'

Li Suan leaned on the sofa, feeling his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and then... someone knocked on the door.

When I'm on a set, I knock on the door of an actress in the middle of the night.

This matter sounds like a ghost story no matter how you think about it.

Li Suan came to the door and first used the peephole to determine who was coming.

No one responded for a long time, and Reba didn't say anything about knocking on the door again. She silently recited what she said after seeing Yang Mi, then tried her best to smile, and then wanted to knock on the door again.

As a result, the door opened, and the person inside was Li Suan.

Reba's first reaction when he saw Li Suan was that he bowed ninety degrees and called "Teacher Li Suan."

"Keep running, you won't run this time?" Li Suan said more interestedly.

Reba made an ugly smile: "I, I want to find Teacher Yang Mi."

"She went out and just left. Do you want to go back and wait at the door, or come in and wait?"

This is all a kind of tiger and wolf talk.

"I won't bother..."

"Wait a minute." Li Shuan called to Reba who was about to leave, because after turning around a few times, he realized that this girl was really beautiful.

"When I was in college, I stood in a military posture and gave it a try. It was like an audition."

Reba is a little timid. He came here today because he had just experienced the conflict between Li Suan and Director Xiao Yang. Reba, who had just thought about it, felt that it was necessary to find Teacher Yang Mi to express his loyal attitude.

As a result, Teacher Yang Mi is not here.

Reba looked embarrassed: "Teacher Li Suan, can't we do it during the day?"

"It's a good night, I want this light."

Li Suan pointed upwards. There is usually an entrance hall in front of hotel executive suites, and there is a row of ceiling lights on the top of the entrance hall.

Logically speaking, this kind of top light effect will leave shadows on the nose, apples of the skin, and under the eyes, and it will not produce any good-looking effects.

But if you look up along the light, under the warm yellow light and the shadows disappear, you will feel a sense of holiness.

"Raise your head forty-five degrees, look at the light, don't squint. Just do me a favor, thank you."

This request is still a bit strange.

"If I raise my head, can I leave?"

Li Suan smiled: "Stop dreaming. If you really have the effect I want now, then we will have to work together more."

I owe 14. There was a major revision to the previous chapter. I may take leave on March 1st and leave on that day.
