Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, starting with the strategy of 95 flowers to counterattack

Chapter 55 Zhou Ye's social death moment

Good news, "Operation Red Sea" has finally finished filming!

Bad news, he got even darker.

Gu Yang thought back to the year since he was reborn. It seemed like he had spent more time in Africa than in school!
Wolf Warrior 2 was filmed in South Africa for more than two months, and Operation Red Sea was filmed in North Africa for more than three months.

As a result, when he looks at the little black girls in Africa now, he thinks they are all pretty...

When Gu Yang walked out of the airport exhausted, his assistant Sister Liu had been waiting for him for a long time.

And Zhou Ye had been shouting in the past few days that he missed him very much and would definitely give him a surprise when he came back.

No one saw it and no one replied to the message.

Just like that, she mysteriously disappeared from his world.

Based on Gu Yang's understanding of her, this girl must have some strange plan again.

After driving back to the company, the two went straight to the dormitory. Gu Yang was so tired that he just wanted to throw himself on the bed and fall asleep.

Gu Yang opened the door, and then...

"Balala energy, Shalo Shalo little magic fairy, whole body transformation."

"Dangdangdang, why doesn't Xiaoyangzi kneel down when he sees Lady Miyuki?"

Zhou Ye wore Miyuki's classic pink dress, with a star and moon pattern of Goujian embroidered in silver thread on the hem, and a bow of the same color tied around her waist.

In his hand he held a magic wand adorned with pink gemstones.

She stood with her back to the door, tiptoed and struck the classic spellcasting pose in the play, her pink hair rising and falling with her movements.

"Oh, have you missed me, the magic fairy?"

After shouting those chuunibunny lines, she slowly turned around, her magic wand still raised in the air.

The moment their eyes met, the smile on her face froze instantly
Behind Gu Yang, Sister Liu was holding Gu Yang's suitcase, which was disheveled in the wind.

I should have helped the boss carry the suitcase up. Young people nowadays really know how to have fun.

It’s over. Will she be silenced?

"Liu, Sister Liu?" Zhou Ye's ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"I...that is me..." Before she could finish her words, she suddenly turned around and rushed to the bedroom, almost letting her slippers fly off her feet.

When the door slammed shut, a muffled "bang" could be heard from inside, probably from someone's head hitting the door.

"Hahaha!"

Gu Yang finally couldn't help laughing out loud. He bent down to pick up the magic wand on the ground and found that there was a handwritten note in Zhou Ye's handwriting on the handle: "Dog training = Gu Yang's magic wand".

Sister Liu coughed twice and pretended to pack her suitcase: "Um, Boss, I forgot to bring my contact lenses today. The lighting here is not good. I'll be leaving first."

"The luggage is at your door. Bye~"

After saying this, the woman left as quickly as the wind.

"Oh no, there's danger. Lord Demon Fairy, come and save me!" Gu Yang joked towards the room.

He was answered by the dull thud of a pillow hitting the door and someone's exasperated scream: "Gu Yang, why didn't you tell me someone was following me!"

"Aren't you being mysterious and planning to give me a surprise?"

"Wow, this is so embarrassing. I don't want to live anymore~"

When Gu Yang opened the door and went in, he saw that the girl had changed into pajamas and was lying on the bed pretending to be an ostrich.

"Sister Liu is very tight-lipped, don't worry. Besides, your cosplay was so beautiful just now, who would laugh at you?"

"Really? Uh~~~ you bastard, is your mind full of this kind of thing?" "Ah~~~"

"Little thing~"

"What are you doing, you pervert?"

"Can you change back into your previous clothes?"

"I'm not happy~ Don't, don't kiss there~ Um, can't I change?"

Yanjing, a private club
Behind a mahogany carved screen, several men and women in gorgeous clothes were sitting around a gilded round table eating.

Wang Jinsong, Vice President of Huayi, picked up a piece of braised sea cucumber with scallions and chatted, "Young people nowadays are amazing. They are filming their own TV series at such a young age."

Hou Hongliang, the CEO of Zhengwu Sunshine, lowered his head to drink his tea, a hint of amusement flashing through his eyes behind his glasses: "Old Wang, you're not talking about Gu Yang, are you?"

"Yes, that's him. A few days ago, Tian Zhuangzhuang brought him to see me and said he wanted to work with us to shoot a sweet e-sports drama."

"He came to my office this morning with the production plan for 'Go Go Squid!'" Hou Hongliang chuckled. "He's a bit overconfident. He's a student at Beijing Film Academy, right?"

"Yes! A young man who wrote two songs and made some money, and now he wants to make a movie without knowing the consequences."

"Have you voted yet?"

"How is that possible? Who has so much money to burn? Playing house with a kid like this."

"Who are the male and female protagonists?" asked Chen Libo of Guangxian Media.

He was actually quite interested because their company had been in trouble recently.

After hitting a peak of 1.35 million yuan in TV drama revenue in 2016, Guangxian Media's revenue plummeted this year.

The revenue from TV dramas has plummeted, with the number of TV dramas dropping from 12 last year to 5.

They cannot participate in large projects and only invest in low-cost youth dramas such as "I'm Waiting for You in the Future" and "Eight Minutes of Warmth".

Moreover, this year, hit dramas such as "In the Name of People" and "Eternal Love" accounted for 70% of the market share, squeezing the living space of many film and television companies.

They are also very eager to find some high-quality projects to invest in.

"The male lead is Gu Yang, and I've never heard of the female lead. She's also a freshman at Beijing Film Academy."

"Isn't this a joke?" Chen Libo lost interest instantly. "Isn't this kid just daydreaming? Two years ago, we put together 'The Princess Weiyoung' and spent 80 million on the schedule for A and B alone. What kind of appeal can these two newcomers have?"

Is the threshold for filming TV series so low now?

Lin Fangling from Jiaxing Media scoffed, "I've heard that too. He's been looking for several companies lately, and many people in the industry are laughing at him!"

"I heard the script was about e-sports, right? Young people love playing games. Do you really think filming something like that is that easy?"

Amidst the laughter of the entire table, she added, "Are you really thinking of filming 'Love O2O'? The online drama market has long passed its traffic dividend period."

The atmosphere in the private room was heated, and everyone was joking about this matter.

Wang Jinsong picked up a piece of braised beef in soy sauce and suddenly remembered something: "I heard he went to Tencent to discuss investment?"

"Desperate, desperate," Lin Fangling put down her phone. "Tsinghua University just signed a deal for a film adaptation of 'The King's Avatar,' so why would they bother with such petty stunts?"

"Young people nowadays always think that writing a few sweet love plots and hiring a few internet celebrities can create a hit, without even considering how many esports dramas have failed in the market."

Hou Hongliang said, "To be honest, I've read the script and it's actually quite good. I did talk to him about changing Yang Zi to be the female lead, but the little guy wouldn't agree no matter what."

"And the character of the male lead in the show, a 30-year-old esports club owner with a withdrawn personality and sharp tongue, who would buy into that these days? How popular was the sunny coach in last year's "Warriors"? Why do they have to take such a radical approach?"

"Once he loses all his first investment, he'll realize the entertainment industry isn't just a game!"
