Depressive Screenwriter

In the early morning, several video websites and film and television media sites were opened.

Articles about Cyberpunk: Edgerunners were everywhere.

[Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Perfect Ending. Unsurprisingly, this is another depressing masterpiece!]

[Depressing screenwriter Su Yan strikes again, new and old fans alike stay up all night.]

[The screenwriter who has made his fans cry the most in Xia Country's history, Su Yan hasn't changed his ways, Edgerunners breaks the limit again.]

[The most divine drama of the year. The drama that makes people want to cry the most this year. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners will undoubtedly win all the Xia Yan Awards this year!]

[Su Yan's legend continues. What will the final episode's ratings be?]

[Su Yan's fans collectively exploded last night, the Sakura TV station's official website closed its comment function!]

[The most romantic confession, the most romantic ending. Su Yan used the dream of "going to the moon" to compose two touching love stories for the Xia Country audience.]

[Although David died, the spirit of Cyberpunk will live on forever. Compared to April, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners moved me even more!]

[If the eleventh episode ratings of Black Gate and Nan Meng next week cannot achieve a divine improvement at the end, the seasonal champion of this quarter will definitely be taken by Cyberpunk: Edgerunners!]

After the broadcast of Edgerunners ended, the entire national film and television drama market was full of praise.

Fans may spray Su Yan because of the deaths of popular characters such as David and Rebecca.

But drama critics won't.

If they didn't receive money to deliberately smear it, they wouldn't be easily angered because a character was killed off, but would consider whether the character's death was valuable.

Obviously, David's death fits the story's theme.

This drama began to reveal the ultimate fate of these cyberpunk characters from the very first episode.

David didn't escape the shackles of fate, but at least he helped Lucy find a chance to break free from fate.

From this point of view, David's death was meaningful.

Noon, Su Yan's company office hall.

The main creative staff of the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners crew gathered here.

Waiting for the final results to be revealed.

Before long, Su Yan's phone received a new message.

"5.65%." Su Yan smiled at everyone present after reading the message content.

"Edgerunners rating is 5.65%"

As soon as the words fell, everyone collectively erupted in deafening cheers.

If it weren't for seeing Su Yan's slightly stern eyes, they would have wanted to lift Su Yan up and play a parabolic game.

"Boss is awesome!"

"Chairman is amazing!"

"Xia Country's number one screenwriter!"

"5.65%, this directly increased Dawn's five-year record by 0.13%!"

"In this day and age, it's unbelievable to still have a 5.65% rating!"

"It shows that Xia Country's TV viewers have always been there, it's just that the dramas on the market were too old-fashioned to attract those old drama fans."

"The second drama our company has established has broken the record. Awesome!"

"Sakura TV station won't be able to hold its head up in the industry for a long time to come!"

Ayaka Ikumi's eyes were a little red, but seeing Su Yan looking over, she returned a smile to Su Yan.

When she left Sakura TV station with Su Yan last year, she never expected this day to come.

Now, she was a little dazed and couldn't stop her tears.

"Congratulations, Su Yan!" Ayaka Ikumi walked up.

Wearing a red dress, she had prepared in advance, after all, tonight was the celebration banquet for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, and Su Yan had specially invited some well-known reporters in the industry to come for interviews.

Since such an achievement has been achieved, it would be meaningless if you don't show off. At this time, any movement Su Yan makes is disgusting Akasaka Yoshishi and undermining the foundation of his position as minister.

"Congratulations to you too." Su Yan said with a smile.

"This company belongs to both of us, and the achievements are shared by us!"

Ayaka Ikumi felt a warmth in her heart when she heard this. Although she was just a small shareholder, Su Yan obviously didn't see her that way, but treated her as an equal.

"Boss, when will the new drama start filming!"

"Yeah, boss, The Garden of Words is over, and everyone has nothing to do!"

"Let's screw them over and let Sakura and Shanghai do their thing again. When Edgerunners went to cooperate with Shanghai, they refused, they must be regretting it now!"

Compared to independently producing an S-level drama, it is obviously more profitable for a channel like China Central Television to introduce Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, achieve a five-year rating record, and win the seasonal and annual championships.

As long as the TV station makes achievements and gains popularity, it has too many profit channels. The benefits that Edgerunners brings to China Central Television are much stronger than if they produced and exclusively owned the copyright of an average S-level drama themselves.

Most company employees definitely hope that the company's work will become less and less, but Su Yan's company employees are a little excited now.

After all, everyone immediately felt a sense of achievement and satisfaction from working on a work that achieved the industry's number one achievement.

They are not too concerned about taking vacations or anything.

"As for the new work..." Su Yan pondered for a moment.

"There will be. But at least tonight, let's hold the celebration banquet first!"

Shen Liqian, Ayaka Ikumi, and Gu Qingyuan all looked at Su Yan.

In today's Dimensional Film and Television Company, Su Yan is the engine.

After Edgerunners, Xia Country's audience will undoubtedly have a strong recognition of the dramas Su Yan shoots and his scripts.

If Su Yan releases a new drama next, the momentum will be completely different.

Even if he produces a simple A-level drama, the results will probably be extremely good.

This situation will continue until the first flop in Su Yan's life appears.

In the afternoon, the tenth episode ratings of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners also spread throughout the Xia Country TV industry.

Although everyone expected it to rise, the data of 5.65% was still a bit too outrageous.

Although Su Yan is still being scolded by fans to this day.

Rebecca's fans still can't stand the plot of the tenth episode.

But the drama's closing with such results is already a great harvest! It has completely established Su Yan's position in the Xia Country TV drama industry.

Although there are still some gold medal screenwriters in Xia Country who created better results five or ten years ago. In terms of the absolute value of ratings, Edgerunners' results are not too abnormal, and there are still some dramas with higher ratings than Edgerunners.

But what era was that?

It was the era when the Internet began to rise, and it definitely suffered a great loss in ratings.

These things are not easy to compare.

But in any case, after the results of Cyberpunk came out, Su Yan's name will definitely be on the list of top screenwriters in Xia Country, and his ranking is still in the front.

One night, Su Yan got a little tipsy at the celebration banquet.

And he said a lot of unfriendly things to Akasaka Yoshishi, and by the way, he mentioned the release of The Garden of Words movie in front of the media many times.

The next day, many Xia Country media reported the relevant news.

Akasaka Yoshishi was sitting in Sakura TV station, but saw a lot of negative news about him.

The water glass in his hand instantly smashed out.

"It's you again, you villain! You start to get smug after achieving a little success! You've been away from the TV station for a year and you can still bring up those old things in front of reporters!"

Even with his good self-cultivation, he couldn't hold it in anymore. He used a lot of things in the office as tools to vent his anger.

But these are all impotent rages.

To put it bluntly, everyone is in this industry. If your work's results are not as good, then you have to accept whatever Su Yan says.

When will Su Yan's drama be beaten by Sakura TV station's work, then Akasaka Yoshishi can say in front of the media that Su Yan is just a flash in the pan screenwriter and his work is garbage, then Su Yan will not be able to say any rebuttal words either.

In the afternoon, the Sakura TV station board of directors held a meeting.

Then before getting off work, Akasaka Yoshishi received a warning from the higher-ups.

The people above were very dissatisfied with his performance as the head of the production department this year.

Su Yan's two dramas have won the seasonal championship this year, and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is very likely to win the annual championship this year.

Such a person left Sakura TV station.

And the reason for leaving was that Akasaka Yoshishi suppressed him many times while he was the deputy minister.

Is it a big deal for a production department head to suppress a new screenwriter?

Of course not.

This kind of thing can happen in any TV station.

The people at the board level of Sakura TV station definitely don't bother to pay attention to this kind of thing. Even when Su Yan left Sakura TV station, he didn't have a word of complaint against Akasaka Yoshishi.

Because Akasaka Yoshishi's contribution to the TV station in the past twenty years is far greater than Su Yan's at the time.

But what if the screenwriter who was suppressed achieved such results after leaving Sakura TV station, and this screenwriter stepped on Sakura TV station's drama to rise to the top?

Then the boomerang came back.

Akasaka Yoshishi doesn't need to say much at this moment, he is extremely guilty. If it weren't for him, then Su Yan would still be in Sakura, and Sakura TV station would have one more annual championship and one more seasonal championship achievement, and it wouldn't be ridiculed by the Xia Country media!

It is called a TV station with connections and a graveyard for newcomers by the industry!

This has too much impact on Sakura's image.

At this time, Akasaka Yoshishi's heart was a little confused.

The board of directors gave him a task.

Sakura TV station cannot be ridden on like this, it cannot become a laughing stock in the industry like this.

The task the higher-ups gave him was that no matter what method Akasaka Yoshishi used, he must suppress Su Yan.

The Xia Country TV station industry does not allow such arrogant people to appear.

Sakura TV station can lose face, but the lost face must be recovered later!

Akasaka Yoshishi chose to produce the S-level drama Black Gate this season with this idea in mind, and he was even full of confidence before the broadcast, thinking that he could let Su Yan see the gap between him and Sakura TV station.

But now...

He was forced onto the shelf.

The higher-ups insisted that he go head-to-head with Su Yan next, and he couldn't escape.

Sakura TV station's works must not lose in the season when Su Yan's works are broadcast!

If he can't beat...

Then Akasaka Yoshishi can leave.

Who can't do the job of the head of the production department of Sakura TV station?

Does it have to be you, Akasaka Yoshishi?

If you don't have the ability, we'll replace you with someone who does.

Two years ago, Akasaka Yoshishi never expected that his suppression of a new screenwriter would cause him to encounter such a crisis two years later.

His hard work at Sakura TV station for more than twenty years to get to his current position is now in crisis because of this kind of thing.

"Su Yan, I will never let you ruin all of this." Akasaka Yoshishi took a deep breath.

He estimated that with the personality of the TV station's higher-ups, he would have at most one or two chances.

If the higher-ups were less patient, perhaps he would only have one chance.

When Su Yan's next one or two big-budget dramas are broadcast, it will be the time for Akasaka Yoshishi and Su Yan to have a final battle.

If he wins, he will gain both fame and fortune.

If he loses...

Get out!

In the early morning, Su Yan woke up from the big bed.

He slightly recalled the situation last night.

Although the day before yesterday was the celebration banquet, last night, the excited Edgerunners crew members pulled him over to drink all night again.

"Drinking is really bad." Su Yan shook his head.

He probably only drinks a few times a year, all at celebration banquets, but it's always very uncomfortable.

He looked at the calendar hanging on the head of the bed.

June 13th.

The spring season is coming to an end, and the summer season is coming.

But that has nothing to do with Su Yan.

Su Yan has no TV dramas broadcast in the July summer season, but at the end of July, The Garden of Words movie will be released.

"Alright, it's time to work."

Su Yan washed his face with clean water to clear his head.

Now, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners has finished broadcasting.

The average paid playback volume of this drama will probably increase to 17 million.

Then add various copyright fees, China Central Television's introduction fee, and GG implantation fee.

The introduction fees from various overseas countries are also estimated.

In addition, some TV drama peripherals can also be produced.

It can be said that Su Yan's company's revenue will be more than 180 million based on this drama.

An investment of 70 million, with a return on investment of more than 200%.

For Su Yan, this drama is a big win.

As long as this money arrives, Su Yan's company will probably not have to worry about the funds for filming film and television dramas in the future.

And Su Yan also has to start drawing prizes at this time.

After all, there are hundreds of people employed in the company, and it is indeed unlikely that Su Yan will pay empty salaries.

His consciousness sank into the system space, and Su Yan looked at his emotional value.

The emotional value of up to hundreds of millions contributed by the two dramas Life is Strange and Edgerunners made Su Yan feel slightly relieved.

As with the previous prize draws, Su Yan was slightly cautious, and first took 20 million to draw to test the waters.

The prize draw screen in the system space began to flicker.

Su Yan held his breath.

The final result disappointed him.

Akame ga Kill!.

It's not that this work is not good, nor is it not abusive enough, but it is not suitable to be made into a TV series.

Western fantasy worldview themes are the most prominent among them.

This set is not popular in Xia Country at all, because Xia Country's plane has not been influenced by foreign Western fantasy culture at all.

Su Yan rashly doing this kind of thing is too risky.

Even Cyberpunk was actually very risky to choose to shoot into a TV series at the beginning, but after all, Xia Country's plane has Cyberpunk elements, and no matter what, the guns, ammunition, human customs and reality in the Cyberpunk worldview will not be too outrageous. To put it bluntly, it's just a future technology world, not a purely different world.

So Su Yan had a bottom line in his heart at the beginning.

The pure Western fantasy world view of Akame ga Kill! would probably be unacceptable to many Summer Country viewers.

So, even though it's good, Su Yan still gave it up.

Now Su Yan has 90 million emotion points left.

After thinking about it, Su Yan divided it in half.

First, he used 45 million to draw.

The lottery page spun quickly,

A drama title that had been sealed in Su Yan's memory for a long time, but whose appearance stirred up his emotions, appeared.

《Tokyo Love Story》.

Hiss.

Su Yan took a slight breath.

A masterpiece of regret.

This time, it wasn't an anime or game original that was drawn.

But a real classic island country TV series from Su Yan's previous life.

The drama is a bit old, it was a sensation in Asia in Su Yan's previous life, even after many years, a bunch of drama critics are evaluating the list of classic island country Japanese dramas, no matter how it is ranked, it must occupy the top of the list.

It can be said that it is one of the peak works of Japanese dramas in his previous life.

After drawing this work, Su Yan thought about it, and felt that he was quite lucky.

After all, there is no need to blindly guess whether it will be adapted to the local conditions or flop before the show starts.

The achievements of Tokyo Love Story in its previous life are there.

Judging from the popularity of Su Yan's previous works in Summer Country, there is no reason why Summer Country audiences would not accept this drama.

Stable.

Su Yan was certain in his heart and did not hesitate any longer.

All the remaining 45 million emotion points were invested.

Soon, the second work was drawn.

《Puella Magi Madoka Magica》

Pfft.

Seeing this name.

Su Yan almost spat out a mouthful of tea.

System, are you kidding me?

Madoka?

But after Su Yan calmed down for a few minutes, he also calmed down.

First of all, the system will only draw works that Su Yan has come into contact with in his previous life.

So this is Su Yan's own reserve.

Secondly, Summer Country does not have works with the theme of magical girls.

But this does not prevent Madoka from being adapted into a TV series.

Because the theme of magical girls is easy to understand.

It's just a group of girls who have gained superpowers to eliminate evil, and they can understand it without being influenced by related works.

Furthermore, Madoka is also a modern world view, adding a little fantasy element, and there are many similar TV series in Summer Country.

After it is really adapted into a TV series, what needs to be considered is the special effects aspect, but fortunately, Su Yan is very confident in this area.

What do you look at for special effects?

That's right, money.

As long as you have money, you will never turn Madoka into an embarrassing drama!

Costumes, props, and special effects, as long as you have money, you can maximize the quality.

The magical girl theme can also be made gorgeous and stunning!

Maybe it can be made into an innovative masterpiece.

Su Yan exited the system space and took a deep breath.

Although he felt that this lottery result was very 'Tang'.

But there is no way, the lottery is risky.

Otherwise, Su Yan would not spend these emotion points three times to draw!

I was afraid that after a single all-in, I would draw a work that could not be produced.

For example, Death Note, there is a high probability that it will not be approved by the Summer Country official!

Otherwise, Su Yan could directly exchange it.

But the price of directly exchanging these two works is hundreds of millions of emotion points, which is too expensive.

Only by drawing a lottery can they be drawn at an emotion point price of 45 million.

Su Yan wants to gain big with small, so he has to accept this risk.

If you draw it, then start filming!

Su Yan's eyes became calm.

Su Yan came to this plane with nothing, there is no reason to be afraid of this and that now that he has achieved success, has money, has a company, has people, and has fame!

Tonight, watching TES play STK, 0:3 made my mentality collapse.

I originally reserved some time to code, but my mentality was affected by the game, and I couldn't write it, so I'll post this chapter. 4500 words, a little less.

It's been more than a month since it was put on the shelves, and it's the first time that the update is less than 6000.

Alas... the author is a ten-year LOL fan, and just wanted to see LPL beat SKT in the S competition, but I didn't expect to feel depressed again.
