Chapter 315 The sea laughs, Su Zhe, I was wrong

Qi Yuanfeng regarded himself as a Confucian businessman and a decent man.

He would not discredit his opponents without conscience, and deep down he despised such unscrupulous behavior.

So even though he was about to feel sour inside, he didn't jump out to attack or smear Su Zhe.

It wasn't until "The Swordsman" started airing and he saw the controversy online that he was overjoyed and followed the trend:

"Su Zhe, you are too young and don't understand martial arts or costume dramas at all!"

So he immediately asked people to add fuel to the flames, saying that Su Zhe was only good at writing modern dramas, not costume dramas.

But he invited Yue Xiangguo, a famous new martial arts master, to personally write the script of "Zhao Zilong". Even though it is a historical drama, it has pure martial arts genes.

He is proud!

"Su Zhe, you insisted on revising the script of "Zhao Zilong" and you were kicked out by me. You will definitely regret it!"

Are you attacking your opponents at the same time, or are you comforting yourself?

He couldn't tell.

Of course, Confucian businessmen are also businessmen, and Qi Yuanfeng also took the opportunity to market his own TV series——

#"Zhao Zilong", a modern story under the shell of ancient costume#

The marketing account took the opportunity to advertise:

[This ancient costume legendary masterpiece "Zhao Zilong" uses a unique perspective and innovative narrative techniques to perfectly integrate modern emotions with ancient hero stories, presenting you with a touching legend. 】

[Modern emotions under the shell of ancient costumes are the biggest highlight of this drama. The plot setting and character creation are full of new ideas, breaking away from the routines of traditional costume dramas, which is refreshing. 】

Qi Yuanfeng looked at these marketing articles and felt very proud:

"As long as you write the story of the Three Kingdoms, it's all the same old story about loyalties and traitors. What's the point? You have to read the script modified by Teacher Yue himself, telling the story of love and peace! Su Zhe, you will definitely regret not cooperating with me!"

But he didn't expect that after "Zhao Zilong" was broadcast, there would be a flood of negative comments:

[What nonsense, Zhao Yun is full of modern vocabulary and thinks about falling in love with the heroine all day long! Please don’t ruin our classical culture and heroes, okay? 】

[Please, don’t let Lin Shaner wear ancient costumes! Sister Lin, promise me, can we change into jeans, a miniskirt, and black stockings? Never cover your legs! 】

[The male protagonist is so bad, he is so thin that he can be blown away by a gust of wind. How can he go in and out of Changban Slope seven times? Do you really rely on Adou to lead you? 】

[The plot and casting are all terrible, the worst TV series this year! Only 1 star, thanks to Sister Lin’s long legs. 】

A certain flap got a score - 4 points!

Qi Yuanfeng was confused. Looking at the ratings and comments on the Internet, he was trembling with anger. Then looking at the reviews of "Swordsman" in the same period, it turned out to be reversed——

[Su Zhe used a routine opening to write an anti-routine martial arts story. Linghu Chong has become the best knight errant in my mind. 】

[With the routine-based opening and the anti-routine progress, I saw Su Zhe’s ambition in martial arts. 】

[This is the first time I have seen Linghu Chong save Yilin by scolding a nun and deceiving a prostitute, but he is much cuter than the hero who stupidly said "You run, I will cover you". Linghu Chong looks bohemian on the surface, but he is chivalrous and benevolent in his heart. It is this contradiction that gives him great charm. 】

[Maybe it’s Liang Zhiruo’s filter, I like Yilin so much. I also really like the plot between Yilin and Linghu Chong. 】

Qi Yuanfeng felt incredible and took a look at the score——

8.9 points!

"how is this possible?"

He was very frustrated and felt incredible:

"Is the plot modified by Teacher Yue himself still inferior to Su Zhe's? How old is he? What does he know about costume dramas?"

Qi Yuanfeng was very unwilling, so he had to change his mind and market the hardships of filming "Zhao Zilong", focusing on -

[The scenes in "Zhao Zilong" were performed by the male and female protagonists themselves, without substitutes! 】

This is what Qi Yuanfeng is most proud of. He dislikes those squeamish and unprofessional idols in the industry the most!

It’s okay to use a body double in a martial arts scene if it’s dangerous, but why should a literary drama also use a body double? As long as it's not a close-up shot, no shots will be taken where the face is not shown. Is this still called an actor?

That's why when he was filming "Zhao Zilong", even if the lead actor didn't know how to do martial arts and his movements were stiff, he insisted on not using a stunt double!

He is proud!

"Su Zhe, you have to write scripts, run a company, and sing. You are so busy, how many times can you go to the scene for filming?"

Qi Yuanfeng sneered in his heart and exhaled:

"That's why I kicked you away and refused to let you play "Zhao Zilong". I will never regret it!"

Unfortunately, his marketing failed.

Who cares how dedicated the actors in a bad movie are?

Netizens prefer to discuss the beautiful martial arts scenes in "The Swordsman":

[I don’t like to watch fairy tale dramas the most. In martial arts dramas, you stand on both sides and make waves, just like the Balala Little Demon Fairy. It's still a martial arts drama that's exciting, good to watch, and elegant. 】

[It’s not as cool as the magic, it won’t shine. Why not spend money on special effects? 】

[This kid has never seen a good one, right? Do you think light pollution is cool? Let me tell you, the martial arts scenes are the most difficult and time-consuming to shoot. The light pollution special effects are too simple, just use a mask or mask to do it. 】

Zhang Hongwei is very good at hype and immediately took this opportunity to release behind-the-scenes footage of Su Zhe and others training before filming.

Netizens were very moved when they saw the actors, especially the two big-name stars Su Zhe and Cheng Lanyun, still learning swordsmanship routines from the martial arts instructors in the training camp:

【This is called dedication! Not only did Su Zhe and Cheng Lanyun not use stand-ins, they also trained hard for filming, just like the actors in the past. 】

[Actually, this is what it should be, right? Just like we have to go through an internship before working. 】

[I am a doctorate student in medicine, and I have to undergo two years of training before I can take up my job. Celebrities are not even willing to undergo a few months of training. The society is really too spoiled to them. 】

【You can always trust Su Zhe. 】

Qi Yuanfeng looked through these comments, his hands trembling slightly. He then looked at the beautiful martial arts moves in "The Swordsman" and secretly compared them with the stiff fighting scenes in "Zhao Zilong", feeling defeated in his heart:

"We don't even use substitutes, so why is there such a big difference?"

He really couldn't accept it. After thinking about it, there was only one place for marketing——

detail!

For example, for the soundtrack, he invited the famous domestic composer Cui Libo (who has appeared before) to personally perform the music, which is majestic and fits the plot!

He also paid great attention to the other scenes, props, costumes, etc. Because he believes that when making TV series, one must strive for excellence. He is not one of those shoddy colleagues.

He is proud!

"Su Zhe, I know you are a musical genius, but you can't write ancient songs, right? How can you be as talented as Mr. Cui Libo?"

Qi Yuanfeng breathed a sigh of relief and became excited again:

"You will definitely... you may not regret it, but you have not seen my attitude towards my works, which is a great loss for you in this life!"

He happily waited for praise from netizens, but after hard marketing, he only received scattered recognition:

[Although this show is a piece of shit, it is also a beautiful piece of shit, in good shape. 】

[It can be seen that the crew put a lot of effort into using precious ingredients to create a dark dish, but at least the plate is beautiful. 】

[BGM is pretty good to use as background music for videos, PPTs, etc. I stole it. 】

Qi Yuanfeng wasn't sure whether this was a compliment or not.

"Should it count?"

But before he could celebrate, "The Swordsman" played to two confidants Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng playing "The Swordsman" (pure music).

This is the point, the plot has reached its early climax, and the music is the same.

Because after Su Zhe's "Swordsman", the background music was highly bound to "Swordsman", the theme song of the movie version - "A Laugh in the Sea"!

Su Zhe wanted to sing the Cantonese version of this song. After all, he was used to hearing it, but there was really no reason——

In a Mandarin TV series shot in mainland China, two Mandarin-speaking characters suddenly sang Cantonese songs...

Nonsensical comedy?

So he could only sing the Mandarin version. Fortunately, the lines in the two versions were almost the same without changing his heroic spirit.

After the appearance of "A Laugh in the Sea", it immediately stole everyone's limelight and became a hot search list.

#《Canghai Yi bursts of laughter》#

#苏泽古风歌#

#The most heroic martial arts music#

Drama fans exploded:

【Heaven! Do you know how I felt when I saw this plot and heard "A Laugh in the Sea"? My scalp is numb! 】

【Swordsman? Smiling proudly! This is called the heart-wrenching Swordsman! 】

[In the martial world, no one can be freed from the righteousness or the devil's sect. Only by forgetting one's love can one be proud. 】

[Qu Yang, Liu Zhengfeng, and Linghu Chong are all such characters. 】

Fans are also very excited:

[Su Zhe has never released an ancient style song before, but he didn’t expect that he would be a hit once he released it! 】

[This is the music genius Su Zhe! No matter what the genre, he can create the best music and make his peers despair. 】

[(The Jumping Prophet) Wait, I discovered a pattern. He made a few romance films, and then released a love album; now he is filming costume dramas, and he has started writing ancient music again. He doesn't rely on filming to find inspiration, right? 】

[If this is the case, then I support him in making movies and TV series! It would never be said that he was not doing his job properly. 】

"A Laugh in the Sea" instantly attracted everyone's attention. Who cares about "Zhao Zilong"?

Qi Yuanfeng looked at these comments and felt very puzzled:

"Is it really that good? If he had filmed "Zhao Zilong", would this song belong to my TV series?"

The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more decadent he became.

But he really didn't know how to get back on his feet and prove himself, but the more he compared them, the more sad he became.

He didn't want to compete with Su Zhe, it was too difficult.

Qi Yuanfeng sighed and called Yan Xiling simply:

"Brother Yan, tell Mr. Su that I give up and spare me. I will never do marketing again."

Yan Xiling:? ? ?

She looked puzzled and couldn't help but ask:

"Producer Qi, I really don't understand, why do you want to surrender?"

Qi Yuanfeng was helpless and said with a wry smile:

"Because I can't compare to Su Zhe, and "Zhao Zilong" cannot compare to "Swordsman"."

"Of course." Yan Xiling said matter-of-factly, "But I don't understand, we didn't start a war with you, why did you suddenly admit defeat?"

Qi Yuanfeng was stunned:

"No war? Then why do you follow my marketing pace and insist on overpowering me in every aspect?"

Yan Xiling was helpless:

"Is there a possibility that "The Swordsman" is currently on the air, and at the critical moment when the ratings reach four, it must be marketed from various angles. As for enemies... I'm sorry, Su Zhe doesn't think he has any enemies."

Qi Yuanfeng wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find any reason to refute——

Yes, at this time, who is worthy of being his enemy?

Isn't this the crushing game of "The Swordsman"?

But this situation made Qi Yuanfeng even more embarrassed and he quickly hung up the phone.

Yan Xiling was speechless as she looked at the phone call that came inexplicably and hung up for no apparent reason.

After Qi Yuanfeng unilaterally declared war and unilaterally admitted defeat, his hands trembled and he slowly opened "A Laugh from the Sea", wanting to know whether this song was as amazing as the netizens claimed:

"I'd rather listen to what song I lost to."

【A laugh from the sea/Roaring cross-strait tides

Ups and downs, follow the waves/just remember the present]

The majestic lyrics were like huge waves, instantly taking away his dissatisfaction, anger, unwillingness, and unwillingness.

Qi Yuanfeng instantly calmed down and listened to the song quietly, feeling the boldness and uninhibitedness in the singing.

【The sky laughs/There are tides in the world/God knows who will lose and who will win.

Jiangshanxiao/Misty Yuyao/The waves sweep away the mortal world. How much do you know in this world?

The breeze laughs/actually causes loneliness/there is still an evening photo of the pride

The common people laugh/no longer lonely/the pride is still smiling foolishly]

Four consecutive sentences of parallelism made him suddenly enlightened, and the regrets and unwillingness he had accumulated over the past year disappeared with laughter:

"Hahaha! How ridiculous! It's a shame that I call myself a scholar, but I can't see through this ridiculous fame and fortune."

He shook his head, thinking about his tossing and turning during this period, and his secret comparison with Su Zhe, and felt funny about his own gain and loss:

"What a song "A Smile in the Sea"! What a song "Swordsman"! Su Zhe, Su Zhe, what an open-minded mentality you have. You are simply a modern Jianghu guest, a contemporary Linghu Chong."

Qi Yuanfeng called Yan Xiling again.

Yan Xiling:......

She answered the phone speechlessly:

"Producer Qi, please don't take advantage of others. Su Zhe really didn't take any chances..."

"I know." Qi Yuanfeng interrupted Yan Xiling and said with emotion, "Apologise to Mr. Su on my behalf."

"Apologise? Why? Not letting him participate in "Zhao Zilong"?" Yan Xiling couldn't help but said, "He didn't care at the time, let alone now."

Qi Yuanfeng almost broke his guard again, and he quickly recited in his heart "The sky laughs, Qi Yuanfeng laughs after the sky smiles", and finally prepared psychological counseling:

"What I want to apologize for is the jealousy and resentment I have felt for more than a year."

Yan Xiling couldn’t understand even more:

"You're just jealous. You didn't hurt us. Why do you have to apologize?"

Qi Yuanfeng smiled disdainfully:

"If you don't understand, just tell Su Zhe and he will understand."

After hanging up the phone, he sighed:

"We are close friends moving forward together on the road of literature and art! Instead of focusing on my works, I fell into jealousy and resentment. I should apologize to you who are focused on moving forward!"

Yan Xiling conveyed it to Su Zhe in a daze and asked him:

"What does Lao Deng mean?"

Su Zhe was also confused:

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

The two looked at each other:

"Forget it, no matter what he means, there is no threat anyway. Let's see now, under this series of hot searches, when will "The Swordsman" break four? Can it break five? Or even, can it break the ratings of "Emperor of Han Dynasty" Where are the records?”
