The matter of Shadow has come to an end.
The alliance’s next work will be very easy.
Benlai League now owns Dead Fire Overseas and The Kindaichi Case Files, and the popularity of the website is increasing day by day.
Now there is another super popular movie "Slam Dunk"!
Among these five comics, except for "The Case Files of Young Kindaichi" which is a little bit inferior, the other four are all phenomenal!
As more content is added to these comic series, their popularity will surely continue to rise!
By then, even the tribal comics won’t be able to handle it!
Here I want to talk about Han Jimei...
Han Jimei is still very capable.
In line with the popularity of "Slam Dunk", she recently launched many website benefits to attract cartoonists from all walks of life.
In the past, cartoonists had no choice but to go to tribes, so tribal comics directly monopolized the industry.
Now cartoonists have new options and are starting to consider joining the alliance.
Some people have already taken action, including some pretty good cartoonists.
You know.
The traffic of the alliance has completely risen with the popularity of Shadow's five comics!
With a certain traffic base, the alliance is a good choice for cartoonists.
certainly.
Tribe Comics has a solid foundation and a large business, and is still the number one in the industry. No matter how great Shadow's comics are, it is impossible for them to destroy the company's years of development.
Once the popularity of these comics explodes, maybe it will be possible.
But it takes time.
So the Horde comics are still everyone’s first choice, and the Alliance is more like everyone’s backup choice.
Han Jimei's various actions are equivalent to constantly shortening this time. After all, the Alliance cannot always rely solely on Shadow.
This made Lin Yuan less worried.
This day.
Come to the Xingmang office.
Lin Yuan began to think about Chu Kuang's matter.
Since the completion of "Sherlock Holmes", Lin Yuan has not started a new book.
Xianyu and Yingzi have been making a fuss for so long, it’s time for Chu Kuang to make some move next.
"How about filling the fairy tale hole?"
Lin Yuan did not forget that there were still a few holes in the lyrics of "Fairy Tale Town".
Just at this moment.
Gu Dong knocked on the door and came in: "Representative Lin, someone wants to see you."
"who?"
"Zhao Jue, the company's chief agent."
"Sister Zhao?"
Lin Yuan stood up and walked towards the door: "Where are the people?"
Lin Yuan was signed into Starlight by Zhao Jue. In a sense, this was a favor of recognition.
Not only that, Zhao Jue had helped Lin Yuan a lot and even let Lin Yuan live in his idle house without charging any rent.
Lin Yuan remembered all of this.
"Here it is."
A voice came from behind Gu Dong, and Zhao Jue looked at Lin Yuan with a smile.
"Please take a seat."
Lin Yuan said with a smile.
A hint of warmth flashed through Zhao Jue's heart. She could see that Lin Yuan wanted to go out and greet her in person.
Things are different now.
Lin Yuan once needed Zhao Jue's care.
Lin Yuan now holds a very high status in Xingmang, and even the chairman has to be courteous to him.
Zhao Jue's status can no longer be compared with Lin Yuan.
To put it bluntly.
Zhao Jue even had to look at Lin Yuan's expression.
Under such circumstances, she was of course touched that Lin Yuan stood up to greet her.
Don't think Lin Yuan is cold to others.
In fact, this is a child who values feelings.
Gu Dong next to him was also surprised. The last time the chairman came over, Representative Lin didn’t even stand up to greet him…
It seems that Representative Lin attaches great importance to Zhao Jue, the company's chief agent.
She hurried forward to pour tea.
After Zhao Jue sat down, he said with emotion: "Your office is so luxurious. The space is more than twice as large as mine."
"Um."
Lin Yuan said: "Then I will ask the chairman to change you to a bigger one."
Zhao Jue: “…”
Is this the power of the prince
She shook her head repeatedly: "That's not what I meant. I came here today to ask you for help with something."
"OK."
Lin Yuan agreed immediately.
Zhao Jue smiled bitterly: "I didn't say anything."
"What's up?"
Lin Yuan took a sip of tea.
Zhao Jue's expression became slightly serious: "The company plans to let me serve as the director of the TV department."
Lin Yuan was curious: "Isn't Uncle Zhou in charge of the TV department?"
Zhao Jue smiled again. "Mr. Zhou has too many things to do. He is in charge of both TV and movies. In addition, some things in the music department cannot be done without him. So he took the initiative to recommend me to the chairman to be in charge of the TV department. This can be considered a promotion for me."
"Congratulations, Sister Zhao."
"Let's not talk about congratulations yet."
Sister Zhao was helpless: "The TV department is not easy to work in. This department was established just for you and Chu Kuang's "Journey to the West". Apart from this drama, the TV department has few works that can be shown off."
That's true.
If it weren't for the filming of "Journey to the West", the company would not have set up a TV department. However, because the company established the TV department for this drama, many preparations were a bit hasty, which led to the department not developing well.
He gained some fame thanks to the second season of Journey to the West.
Yes.
The second season of "Journey to the West" has been aired. It is still the story of four masters and apprentices going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and fight monsters. It is still widely popular, but because the investment cost is too high, the return on investment is very slow.
Apart from this, other projects in the television division received mediocre response.
Taking over the TV department is a good thing for Zhao Jue. It is a department after all. However, how to make this department develop well is a difficult problem. Zhao Jue has been having a headache about this recently.
After two days of headache, she thought of Lin Yuan.
She felt that Lin Yuan might be able to help.
After all, the TV department’s major production, Journey to the West, was produced by Lin Yuan.
Zhao Jue didn’t know that Lin Yuan was Chu Kuang, she only knew that Lin Yuan was the screenwriter of this drama.
Lin Yuan asked: "Do you want me to write a TV script?"
Zhao Jue shook his head. "You are so busy, I am embarrassed to ask you to help so much, but this matter is indeed related to writing the script. Do you know the martial arts drama "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" that the company is currently broadcasting?"
"Yes, I watched this TV series when I was a kid."
Lin Yuan doesn’t watch TV series now, but his mother likes to watch them very much.
My mother happened to be watching the recently aired "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange".
It may have something to do with the fact that this drama is produced by Xingmang.
Because of Lin Yuan, my mother has a good impression of Xing Mang and is very supportive of Xing Mang's works.
However, my mother doesn't think highly of this drama.
There seems to be some signs of giving up on the show recently.
In addition, Lin Yuan has some additional understanding of the drama, which comes from his childhood memories.
No one reads martial arts novels anymore.
But when Lin Yuan was a child, martial arts novels were still very popular.
This "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" is a very classic martial arts novel, the author is Liu Yedao.
The Lancet's status in the field of martial arts novels is similar to that of Jin Yong and Gu Long on Earth.
But the other party has stopped writing now.
Because nowadays few people like to read martial arts novels.
Having said that.
Although no one reads martial arts novels anymore, there is still a market for martial arts dramas.
Therefore.
Many martial arts dramas are broadcast every year, including some very popular ones.
As a classic martial arts masterpiece, The Lancet's "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" has been remade seven or eight times over the years, and each time it manages to attract some audiences, even if everyone is already familiar with the plot of the novel.
Lin Yuan also watched this Blue Star TV series when he was a child.
I'm quite familiar with the plot.
"You should know almost everything about the situation then."
Zhao Jue sighed, "After the company bought the copyright of "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange", we invited two first-line TV actors to star in it, and we attached great importance to it. But maybe the audience is really tired of watching the remake of this drama, so even though our cast is very good, the audience is not very receptive. Recently, the ratings have been declining. If this continues, the drama will lose a lot of money. So I was thinking if I could ask you to give some advice to our screenwriters and guide them. After all, your screenwriting talent is very well known to the entire company..."
Lin Yuan was stunned.
He thought Zhao Jue was looking for him to help write a TV script, but he didn't expect that he was asking him to save the day:
"Hasn't the TV series already aired?"
"This is not a problem, because our drama is being filmed and broadcast at the same time, and the script can be changed flexibly."
Lin Yuan did not frown immediately.
This touched upon his blind spot in knowledge.
He is better at just taking out a script rather than changing someone else's plot, and he is not sure he can make it better.
"I know this might be difficult for you."
Zhao Jue hesitated for a moment before speaking: "So I was thinking, if you feel embarrassed, can you help me find Teacher Chu Kuang for help? You have a good relationship, so it's okay to ask him to help polish it. I'll negotiate the remuneration. The main reason is that the investment in this drama is too high. The company has high expectations for this drama. I think the plot can still be saved..."
Lin Yuan: “…”
Zhao Jue coughed and said, "Don't you have a friend named Yingzi? Although he is a cartoonist, it should be no problem for him to give some ideas for the TV series plot. After all, his creative ability is there. As I said before, I will discuss the remuneration."
Lin Yuan: “…”
He was speechless.
Zhao Jue might not believe it, but what Xianyu can't do, Yingzi and Chu Kuang together can't do either.
Just at this moment.
Lin Yuan's system suddenly made a ding-dong sound:
"Congratulations to the host for triggering the mission: Save a martial arts TV series that is about to fail. The mission requirement is to double the ratings of the show, and the mission reward is master-level calligraphy. Friendly reminder one: Master-level calligraphy normally requires a gold treasure chest to open; Friendly reminder two: The host can use the template of the Earth martial arts drama "Little Fish and Flowerless" to adapt the script of this work. The specific application method needs to be explored by the host himself."
Here comes the mission!
Lin Yuan almost thought that the system would no longer issue tasks, but he didn't expect that the system would actually send him a task today!
"receive!"
Lin Yuan accepted the task without hesitation, regardless of whether he could do it or not. There was no penalty for failing the task anyway.
There is also a mission reward, master-level calligraphy!
This is really fragrant!
And the system seems to provide me with a direction for adaptation!
"Let me try."
After accepting the task, Lin Yuan said this to Zhao Jue.
Think about it.
Lin Yuan added: "Let's try it."
"You promised!?"
Zhao Jue was overjoyed for a moment, but if he had the help of his three best friends who had extremely terrifying creative abilities, this matter might really have a chance of success!
"Um."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"Then I'll give you the script first. We've currently aired up to episode 12. You can refer to the rest of the storyline and change it however you want!"
While talking.
Zhao Jue took out the script he had brought with him: "You can also watch the first dozen episodes of the TV series. Maybe you will get some inspiration."
Lin Yuan nodded.
Zhao Jue left happily, but there was still a trace of sadness between his brows. This was just a risky move.
The script has to be changed temporarily and it has to be exciting enough to revive the ratings.
This is not an easy thing to do.
After all, Lin Yuan took over temporarily, so how could it be easy for him to come up with interesting ideas
In the final analysis, this is a desperate attempt to save a dying horse.
After Zhao Jue left.
Lin Yuan began to ponder.
The tasks issued by the system will not be too difficult.
Maybe I should take a good look at "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" and try to save the ratings of this show!
There is another reason behind this that is unknown to outsiders.
That is the dilemma of the TV drama department, which is actually related to Lin Yuan to a certain extent, or even a huge relationship.
You know.
The TV series "Journey to the West" cost the TV department too much money!
Season 1, Season 2.
How many billions have been spent!
This drama is not profitable. Even with the help of peripheral products to make up for the investment, it is still in a state of loss so far.
Netizens’ comments are unprecedentedly high, and that’s all due to the money spent!
Under such circumstances, the television department cannot afford to fail. "Journey to the West" is too blood-sucking!
That's why.
Only after Zhao Jue took over the department did he rack his brains to think about how to save the ratings of "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange".
Lin Yuan cannot escape blame for this.
If he hadn't spent so much money on making "Journey to the West" a top IP, the TV department should have been able to do more.
At least we won't be so restricted that we won't be able to bear the failure of a martial arts drama.
After all, the Xingmang family is big and powerful, so if they lose, they lose.
Isn’t it because the situation in this department is too complicated
Even for this, Lin Yuan would definitely try his best to think of a solution, not to mention the relationship between him and Zhao Yingchromi.
"First of all, it must be modified..."
"Why does the system say that the template of this drama can be applied to "Little Fish and Flower"?"
"That seems to be a very popular work on Earth, and its ratings even led the market..."
"But I have a memory problem and can't remember the content of the play..."
"That show seems to have a lot of killing..."
"The only impression left in my mind is killing, killing, killing, killing..."
"… "
Lin Yuan didn't think about it anymore and directly customized "Little Fish and Flower".
Then he finally understood why his only impression of the show was kill, kill, kill, kill.
Good job!
This drama was killed by a character named "Jiang Yuyan" and only the title remains!
Even more interesting is:
The film "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" shot by the company has a very similar background to the work that was killed to the point that only the title remains!
Someone could have copied the plot of that TV show with almost no effort!
Lin Yuan's thoughts suddenly became clear!
Come out!
Chu Kuang old thief!
