You promised to make a bad movie, but your box office exceeded 10 billion?

Chapter 143 As wild as a dog, as free as the wind

Xiangjiang, Deep Water Bay villa area.

"Li Yunlong, I congratulate you on getting rich!"

In the private theater, Liu Shiyu was sitting alone on the sofa. "Bright Sword" was playing on the TV, but his mind was not on the show at all. His eyes were fixed on the upper right corner of the screen, where there was a clear image of Shenhua. Taiwan logo.

Liu Shiyu has also filmed many war dramas in mainland China over the years, but none of them can be broadcast on Shenhua One, let alone the golden theater of Shenhua One.

The dramas that can be broadcast in the Golden Theater are all excellent!

Unexpectedly, a drama produced by this small company that he had never paid attention to would be shown in the Golden Theater.

And before the show started airing, he even used them as stepping stones to complain about his show in publicity.

For this reason, he said a lot of things that embarrassed him now.

How can he be convinced?

He, Liu Shiyu, was also a TVB gold medal producer back then and was also a well-known figure in Hong Kong.

Snapped!
At this moment, the projection screen suddenly went out and the room lights were turned on.

"Okay, stop reading and take a rest."

A gentle lady wearing a shawl came behind the sofa, put her hands on both sides of Liu Shiyu's neck, pressed his shoulders, and said softly, "He is just lucky, isn't it just that he happened to be seen by a few old men?" You got it, you just got lucky."

Although the reason why "Bright Sword" was screened at the Golden Theater is a mystery to many people, there is no shortage of people with great powers in the industry. Now many people know the news, including of course Liu Shiyu.

Being valued by a few old men is not a piece of shit luck.

Liu Shiyu shook his head, but did not refute his wife.

What he was dissatisfied with was not only the fact that the other party was able to go to the Golden Theater, but also why the other party was able to film a war drama of that era so well!

These days he also watched "Bright Sword" again.

It is precisely because he understands the excellence of "Bright Sword" that he is so talented.

Who doesn’t want to stand and make money?
But the reality is that most, not 99.99%, of people can only kneel down and ask for money, including Liu Shiyu.

Now that he suddenly saw a person who could make money standing up, of course he was not convinced and would not give in.

Why can't this person be me?
"It's useless!"

"Even if they can play it on Shenhua Station, so what?"

"Can they get their money back? Can they make money?"

After being married for many years, the woman certainly understood what Liu Shiyu was thinking, and said with a slight smile while rubbing his shoulders.

Liu Shiyu understood. He had been married for many years, so of course he understood what his wife meant.

Although "Bright Sword" has been on the golden theater, it still has difficulty repaying the huge investment. In this case, for a drama that does not make money, no matter how good its reputation is, there will be no capital to take a second look at it.

Since there is no capital to enter the market, this drama will become an isolated case. It cannot change the market, it cannot change the current status of war dramas, and it will not affect his ability to make money.

Take a long breath.

Liu Shiyu really felt much better.

Yes, no matter how good the drama is, what’s the use?

Can you make money?

……

In the office of the general manager of Penguin Pictures in Yangcheng, Sun Huaizhong looked at the screen fiercely, the anger in his chest was like ignited dry grass, and it was out of control.

He didn't understand how could such a combination of hot traffic + fantasy + big production + IP with a large number of fans defeat it so completely?
In the past, as long as there were movies and TV series starring popular celebrities, even if the quality was poor, the final results would not be bad, and they could always make a lot of money. But why has the world changed so fast?

This trick suddenly stopped working?
He couldn't figure it out.

Originally, he secretly rejoiced when he watched "Bright Sword" hit the streets, but he didn't expect retribution to come so quickly. Soon, "Fighting Qi Transformed into Horses", which they had invested heavily in, also hit the streets. Whether it was in the comment area or on the Internet, it was full of comments. Full of bad reviews.

At this moment, Qin Qingmei knocked on the door and walked in.

Looking at Sun Huaizhong, whose face was as gloomy as rain, her face became ugly, because she knew that what she said next would make Sun Huaizhong's face even more ugly.

But she still had to say it, because this is what she, a secretary, should do.

Sun Huaizhong had already looked over at her. Although he hadn't spoken yet, his eyes had already expressed clearly, "What's the matter? Say it quickly! Don't bother me if you have nothing to do."

""Bright Sword" is on Shenhua TV's Golden Theater!"

Qin Qingmei will make a long story short.

"what?"

Sun Huaizhong was stunned and lost his voice.

This news was like a hammer to his head.

It's like two scumbags in the class who are secretly competing with each other. Originally, both of them failed in the exam, and he felt better. But now you suddenly tell me that the teacher corrected the wrong test paper, and the other party actually got [-]%!
Who can bear this?
Uncomfortable!

Very uncomfortable!
Sun Huaizhong felt that he had never been as uncomfortable as he is now in the more than 40 years since he came to this world.

Qin Qingmei stood in the office tremblingly, not daring to express her anger. She could feel the dull atmosphere in the office, just like the weather before thunder, dull and depressing.

You clearly know that there will be a thunderbolt, but you don't know when it will fall. This feeling is extremely uncomfortable.

"Little Qin!"

Qin Qingmei, who was thinking wildly, suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Looking up, he found that Sun Huaizhong's face was already calm, even with a hint of relaxation.

It was like there were dark clouds one moment, but the next second the clouds dispersed, revealing bright sunshine.

Qin Qingmei was dumbfounded.

"Go and contact the person in charge of Shenhua TV Station and ask them if they have any intention to purchase "Fighting Spirit Turns into a Horse"?" How can Sun Huaizhong be an ordinary person to be able to sit in this position? When he learned that "Bright Sword" was on the Golden Theater In the end, short-term emotions such as confusion, shock, regret, jealousy, etc. are inevitable.

But he quickly regained his composure and even saw a glimmer of hope.

However, in Qin Qingmei's view, this glimmer of hope may be because the boss is crazy...

The fact that "Bright Sword" was chosen by Shenhua TV was not only due to its excellent quality, but also due to luck.

"Mr. Sun, it is said that Shenhua TV purchased "Bright Sword" because..."

Qin Qingmei told all the news she knew. As the secretary to the general manager, she always knew many unknown secrets, including the rumors of Shenhua TV's purchase of "Bright Sword".

Sun Huaizhong frowned and pondered for a moment and then said, "It doesn't matter. You go and contact us first. We at Penguin Pictures also have our own connections!"

In his opinion, if someone likes an old person, it is just because the relationship is strong enough, and there is no excuse.

Penguin Pictures is not a small studio. He just thought it was unnecessary before, but now, they can't lose to "Bright Sword".

He had to give it a try even if he didn't dare to do it!
"By the way, if Shenhua TV station doesn't work, other local stations can also be considered!"

As if there was still some self-knowledge left, Sun Huaizhong gave one last instruction.

……

In Qiongzhou, Cheng Hao wiped the lipstick from the corner of his mouth. He was exhausted but still somewhat unsatisfied as he returned to his RV. It felt so good to be the second male lead!
"Brother Lin!"

After saying hello to Jiang Qilin, who was also resting in his RV, he flopped down on the sofa regardless of his appearance. Being the second male lead was really tiring.

The RV is provided by the company, which is the privilege of getting the second male role.

Jiang Qilin is only the sixth male, so naturally he does not receive this kind of treatment, but due to his relationship with Cheng Hao, Cheng Hao strongly invited him to come over, and Jiang Qilin did not refuse. It is undoubtedly very comfortable to have a RV to rest in the wilderness. matter.

"congratulations!"

"I heard that "Bright Sword" is on Shenhua TV's Golden Theater!"

Although he has been filming these days, he has been paying attention to the news of "Bright Sword". After all, his brother Jiang Qilin also played a supporting role in it.

How do you say that? I am afraid that my brothers will suffer hardship, but I am also afraid that my brothers will drive Land Rover.

It's probably such a subtle mood.

"I'm just a sidekick!"

Jiang Qilin shook his head mockingly. Yes, he was just a sidekick. What happened to Liangjian in the end would not have much impact on him. Moreover, he played Liangjian simply because he liked the feeling of acting under Director Su, and Not too much to ask for.

He never had unrealistic expectations, so he was not disappointed.

"I'm going back to the Magic City tomorrow, so you should play well!"

Jiang Qilin's role is about to be completed, and he came here today to say goodbye to Cheng Hao.

Cheng Hao nodded understandingly.

Although "Bright Sword" was screened in Golden Theater, "Bright Sword" is a war drama after all, at least that's what he thought.

Most of the audiences for this kind of drama are older audiences. Unless they decide to act in that kind of drama in the future, no matter how popular "Bright Sword" becomes, it won't be of much help to them.

Of course, he doesn't believe that "Bright Sword" can be a hit. This is no longer the era of television dominance. There are no young people watching TV. The gold content of the golden theater has long since expired.

"Have you found the next drama?"

Cheng Hao asked with concern.

Jiang Qilin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "How can there be so many scenes?"

There are tens of thousands of art students graduating from art academies every year. How many will eventually be filmed, and how many will become actors?
He, Jiang Qilin, is just an eighteenth-tier actor, how could he have endless plays?

"Just go back and rest for a while!"

Jiang Qilin said comfortingly.

"I hope we can both be the leading man next time we meet!"

Cheng Hao waved goodbye to Jiang Qilin.

"Okay!"

Jiang Qilin responded with a smile.

But they all know, how can two people become the leading actor at the same time?

With the dramas they are filming now, what qualifications do they have to be the leading actor?
The news that "Bright Sword" was broadcast at the Golden Theater was just like a pebble dropped into a deep pool, causing some slight ripples and then quickly returning to calm.

Nowadays, with the development of the Internet, TV stations have long lost the influence they had back then. People who still watch Golden Theater today rarely speak out on the Internet.

On the contrary, it was another web drama broadcast on the Internet, which sparked a wave of discussion among everyone.

[Wild as a dog, free as the wind]

[It feels like it takes me back to my youth. This is really a pure youth movie! 】

[It feels so good to have such a group of people growing up with me! 】

[When it’s funny, it makes my cheeks hurt from laughing; when it’s sad, it makes my eyes hurt from crying]

[I fell in love with Sichuan dialect because of this drama]

"The Sky of the Wind Dog" came out quietly, and then set off a frenzy of discussion on the Internet.

The last drama with this level of discussion seemed to be called "Prince Concubine's Promotion".

After everyone saw the success of "The Princess", some capable directors began to invest in the filming of online dramas, and some capital was also willing to invest in online dramas. The audience's acceptance of online dramas has been greatly improved, and they will no longer As soon as I saw it was a web drama, I thought it was inferior.

But the memory of the Internet is the memory of fish. Everyone seems to have forgotten "The Princess" and Xihong Film and Television, and no one is discussing Xihong Film and Television's new drama "Bright Sword" anymore.

Except, the male protagonist who became popular because of "The Sky of the Wind Dog", Peng Yushang!
