The leisurely life of rebirth

Money is only money when it is spent.

Almost 4 million yuan, the revenue of a movie, is gone. It really hurts to think about it.

After the discussion, Zhou You called Zhao Yun over.

Now that Director Zhao has become famous, there are documentaries on the left and variety shows on the right.

It’s something you can show off when introducing yourself.

"Brother Yun, come here, have you heard of the documentaries on BI station? I have found a channel for you, a special channel." Zhou You said happily.

Then I briefly explained what happened.

Zhao Yun's eyes immediately turned red: "Brother You, you, you, give me this money, I will quit my job immediately and make documentaries for you for the rest of my life."

I am so envious.

However, I know that these are all jokes, but I still can't help but feel envious.

Zhou You couldn't help laughing: "We still have to keep the documentary fund. Our early directors all got along very well with us. I will still support those who should be supported. Don't worry about that."

"In the future, we can also carry out more cooperation in the name of the documentary fund. I plan to invest another 10 million yuan in the documentary fund."

Now that there is more and more money, the scope of various hobbies must also rise accordingly, otherwise they will not be worthy of their status.

Zhao Yun was really speechless. What a huge amount of money this was.

I really don't know how much money there is to travel around.

But now I really admire Zhou You's vision. I have experienced it myself. The house I bought with A Le has increased in value by more than one million.

How long has it been?

It's really scary.

At the beginning, Zhao Yun was happy because housing prices rose and his wealth increased.

Later I was glad that I bought it early, otherwise I might not have been able to afford it in the years to come.

Now, he wants to make a documentary about the house.

I also told Zhou You about this idea.

"Well, it's a good idea, and I support it, but you have to be prepared to take a long time, because it may not be released." Zhou You also wanted to watch it, but he rarely saw what was inside.

Zhao Yun is working in such a big TV station, so he has some awareness of this.

He said calmly, "Well, I am ready not to release it. I just want to record these things and show them to my children and future generations."

"Yes, there are many things that you can't understand without experiencing them personally. Let's find a few more people to take comprehensive photos." Zhou You was somewhat tempted.

"Real estate developers, home buyers, home sellers, unfinished buildings, agents, rising prices, plummeting prices, big cities, small cities."

“Save everything you can shoot and record, and review it later.”

Zhou You expressed his thoughts.

The people around were stunned, and what they said was so comprehensive. This project must cost a lot of money, but there is still no financial return.

It seems that Zhou You really loves documentaries.

Lu Yang, the director of BI's documentary channel, was also there. When he heard the news, his eyes lit up.

He walked up to Zhou You and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm very familiar with your name. My name is Lu Yang, and I'm the director of the documentary channel. I also like watching documentaries. I've talked to some documentary directors, and they all praised you. The project you just mentioned is very good. Can it be the first joint project between our documentary channel and the foundation?"

Zhou You looked at the excited middle-aged man, then looked at Chen Rui.

That means, do you dare?

Chen Rui nodded: "Shoot it, what's there to be afraid of? We are responsible for the formalities. As long as it is comprehensive and objective, I believe there will be no big problems. It will also be a program that ordinary people will like."

"Okay, considering Mr. Chen's courage, I will pay the money and you guys can do the rest together." Zhou You said generously.

For this kind of subject matter, as long as it can be broadcast, it is a victory.

With a population of over one billion, there are so many things that people want to and can shoot.

Documentaries are more than just about scenery, food, humanities and geography.

There are also ordinary people in this prosperous age, ordinary parents, ordinary children, as well as the vast number of farmers and countless factories. These little people all need to show off and they all need a stage.

The era of self-media has provided everyone with a window.

As a capital platform, it has shrunk to the back, whether out of helplessness or the need to make money.

It would have been fine if Zhou You didn’t participate, but now that he is involved, he must have some ideas.

In fact, Zhou You has thought more than once about setting up a documentary home, a video website specializing in documentaries.

But after a brief understanding, I gave up this idea.

Too much trouble.

Servers, operations staff, copyright purchases, and platform maintenance.

Profit is still a long way off. There is nothing wrong with simply investing money, but I am afraid of the trouble.

This model is still okay now.

The idea of ​​traveling around is that everything can be recorded!

Lu Yang was not blind, he was indeed too excited just now. It turned out that he was the one who handled all matters related to the documentary. When it came to Zhou You, his rank was not high enough and his boss was afraid that he would be too excited, so he did not let him go.

Now I really hit it off with Zhou You.

"Mr. Zhou, don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on this project." Lu Yang said, patting his chest.

Heroes appreciate heroes. Zhou You also liked Lu Yang's straightforwardness. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. This kind of thing is worth recording for a lifetime. You should take pictures every year. It would be even better if you can follow up and revisit it."

"Have you seen Seven Years of Life?"

Lu Yang nodded: "I have seen it, of course. This kind of documentary with a high concept and a long duration is a classic among classics."

"This is my ideal, to have such a documentary shot in our country that can be accumulated over time and passed down for a long time." Zhou You expressed his thoughts.

It doesn't necessarily have to be the same type, but I hope it can be long-lasting, rather than relying on short-term passion to solve the problem.

Lu Yang became even more excited and couldn't help but hold Zhou You's hand: "Mr. Zhou, I thought so too, but I never had the chance to realize it."

When Zhao Yun saw this situation, he was extremely jealous. He was obviously You Ge's subordinate and the first one to surrender.

But seeing this scene now, I can only feel that my position is unstable.

He quickly said, "Boss Lu, don't worry, when we work together in the future, we will definitely shoot more classics."

If I don’t show off my achievements, I’m afraid I will no longer be Zhou You’s beloved little sweetie.

"Director Zhao is very good. The shooting angles of "The Human World" are very good. It can attract the public and is very bold." Lu Yang praised lightly.

It's good, but the subject matter is a bit tricky and doesn't go into depth.

Chen Rui was also a little worried. He had finally found someone who understood documentaries, and he didn't want him to be lured away by Zhou You. Looking at Lu Yang's expression, if Zhou You tried to recruit him, he would probably leave without hesitation.

By then, you will lose both your money and your life.

"Lu Yang, go back and draw up a plan quickly. We want to vigorously develop documentaries. You should come up with a five-year plan." Chen Rui knew what the other party liked.

"Well, don't worry, I'll give you ten years."

Lu Yang excitedly increased his bet.

Everyone has their own stage

According to Zhou You's arrangement, Li Ronghao has arrived at the filming location of Tomorrow's Star.

Right in the capital.

The only advantage is that you don’t have to run around and work hard.

After becoming famous, I have never been a mentor. This is my first time as a mentor. Fortunately, it is an online variety show, otherwise, I would be a little embarrassed.

You will feel that you are unworthy.

This is the first time that Penguin has tried this format.

The invited guests are not particularly famous, but Li Ronghao is probably the most popular one.

There is also Xue Qian. I heard that Yang Mi would occasionally come to make a guest appearance. Anyway, he is in Beijing and would come and take a look when he is bored. It can also be regarded as a product of his own company.

I haven’t heard of the host, and I haven’t heard of Huahua either.

Li Ronghao squinted his eyes and watched the program progress.

When we first started the meeting, I heard the producer say, "This is just an attempt. We will make adjustments based on the actual situation. There may be some things that require the cooperation of the teachers, such as voting."

Almost everyone present had experience and were not newbies.

Just nod your head when you should, since you are getting paid to work.

Li Ronghao didn't have any objection. Nothing had happened yet, so he just needed to analyze the specific situation.

The program crew actually didn’t know who was behind Li Ronghao and thought that the music company found him. However, his company was powerful, so they were naturally much more polite.

Yang Mi didn't come today. As the boss, she certainly doesn't need to get involved in such trivial matters.

Now, acting and attending shows are just a hobby at best, but it also serves to maintain my exposure.

Nowadays, we are not afraid of one thing, but afraid of ten thousand things.

Even if the relationship breaks down and you are old and ugly, the main thing is that you will be able to make money naturally as long as you have exposure.

And now she has figured out the pattern. She will probably not play the leading role anymore because it takes too much time. She will mostly play guest roles in better ones, the kind that are memorable.

When you go to major crews and projects, the treatment is completely different.

Can it be the same as being an investor and an actor?

I am very confident when facing the director, and I am not at a disadvantage even when facing other investors.

Because there are people behind him, big bosses behind him.

Xue Qian became famous earlier than Lao Li, but the two have different styles and famous works. The only similarity is that they are both singer-songwriters.

There is also a feeling of mutual admiration.

"Hello, Teacher Xue, I've heard a lot of your songs." Li Ronghao said politely with his eyes narrowed.

Xue Qian grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth: "Teacher Li, please don't be polite. I don't have many good works right now, and I'm almost dying of worry."

One is a bit of a social bull, and the other is a bit of a social phobic.

Li Ronghao suddenly didn't know what to say next, and said hesitantly: "It's difficult to create. I've reached a bottleneck recently and feel like I have no inspiration."

"Yes, yes, I'm so worried. You need to lean on a big tree, but I have to rely on myself. It's too difficult. I come here as a judge this time to find some inspiration." Lao Xue looked helpless.

"Yeah, I'm about the same. I came to see the world. I also participated in a talent show, but was eliminated." Li Ronghao felt nostalgic when he thought about the past.

Lao Xue was a little surprised: "No wonder, I came out of a talent show, but you seem to have released an album directly, how amazing!"

"Oh, I met a noble person, otherwise I don't know when I can make a breakthrough." Li Ronghao said ambiguously.

What is happening now was also arranged by a noble person. Of course, this cannot be disclosed.

I am socially anxious, but I am not stupid. I would never reveal my true colors to others.

The tutor's job is relatively simple.

All contestants have undergone preliminary screening.

The audience on site are mostly young people selected from major universities and various channels. The main focus this time is also young people, and the target group is very precise.

However, it is really difficult to grasp the preferences of young people today.

This time can also be considered an attempt.

The mentors here are meeting, and the students over there are also adapting. All of them have gone through preliminary screening, and those who can step onto this stage all have certain abilities.

Either they studied music or they have performed on other stages.

Maomao is not an unknown person either. He likes singing in school and has participated in many campus singing competitions.

Do you take this draft seriously?

take seriously.

After graduation, working in a hospital was so torturous. The days that seemed to have no end were really hard to endure.

We often see birth, aging, sickness and death, and we can't be sure that we will die suddenly one day.

I'm really scared.

I just graduated this year and I was beaten by society.

In other words, Zhou You was not sure about the exact time. If it was earlier, Maomao might not have graduated yet and might not have had the opportunity to participate in this program. Now that he has participated, he can be considered to have escaped from the suffering in advance.

"Hey, are you studying music?" There was a student next to them with a more outgoing personality and he was chatting with Maomao.

Maomao shook her head and adjusted the frame of her glasses: "No, I'm a nurse."

"What, you're a nurse?" the guy said in surprise, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Maomao's face turned red, and he pulled the guy's clothes: "Hey, keep your voice down."

"No, buddy, you really are a male nurse."

"So what? I'm still a female nurse." Maomao retorted. This guy is really annoying.

Get up and walk away, stay away from this club bull, our club may not be worthy of being in such an occasion.

Most people were quite nervous, only a few were more casual. Maomao had strong observation skills, and when he watched silently from the side, he found that these people either had background or experience.

Anyway, they are all better than me.

Before I knew it, the show had started recording.

I heard that the students cannot leave during the recording period, and no one has any idea how long the recording session will last.

It’s hard to find an audience, and it seems like we’ll have to record several episodes of material for the first time, so I guess some people will have to wait.

At the beginning of the show, the host began to announce the rules. Several mentors were sitting below in a somewhat casual manner. The main theme of the show was to be casual and allow people to stand or sit. If they got tired of sitting, they could stand, and if they got tired of standing, they could sit.

Li Ronghao looked at the contestants on the stage and felt a little envious. They were all young men and were much luckier than himself to have such an opportunity.

However, most of these children do not have their own characteristics and it is difficult for them to go far on the path of music.

Singing is simple, but in modern society there are too many techniques to teach, so unless you have amazing talent, it is difficult to stand out.

Either they can write or they have a recognizable voice. Every year there are countless graduates from music schools, but in the end, most of them become just like everyone else.

The teacher next to me, Huahua, claims to be a singer, but I really can’t remember any of her representative works!

On the contrary, there are many talented singers among the people, and all skills can be learned.

Talent is rare.

I listened and nodded, and there was no one who impressed me even now.
