Chapter 295: "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu" start filming!
This year's Chinese New Year's Eve is no different from previous years.
Since WeChat cooperated with the Spring Festival Gala to launch New Year's red envelopes, it has been free red envelopes to everyone for three consecutive years this year.
The first year is the letter red envelope, and now the third year is the Alipay red envelope, if you count WeChat's Jiwufu red envelope, it really benefits countless users.
This year's WeChat collection of five blessings is even more popular than last year, after all, the users who tasted the sweetness last year, especially the first batch of users who collected all five blessings, three million people, each person has an average of hundreds of yuan in red envelopes, who doesn't want this money for nothing?
Therefore, once the WeChat Jiwufu activity was launched this year, users who tasted the sweetness last year flocked to it, making the Jiwufu activity more popular than last year.
On the contrary, Alipay, although it cooperates with the super stage of the Spring Festival Gala and has invested a lot of money, the response is not as good as WeChat's Jiwufu activity.
There's no way, Alipay's label is finance after all, and it's not comparable to the social label of the letter.
Of course, a few hours of red envelope bombardment also allowed Alipay to add nearly 20 million registered users, which is not bad.
And when the people of the whole country gathered five blessings to grab red envelopes, a group of screenwriters who had just joined Liu's Media did not even have a break during the Spring Festival, and were working overtime to adapt the two works "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu".
The big boss of Yanagi Hui gave an order to the screenwriters, telling them to be 100% loyal to the original work, and not to move the main plot at all, except for the details that can be slightly adjusted.
As soon as the big boss gave this order, the screenwriters were really sad.
Because in this way, their role is no different from that of translation, which is to translate it into a script.
Yanagishita doesn't care what the screenwriters think, the reason why he wants to put the legendary series on the screen is for himself and legendary fans to realize their dreams, not to make money, nor for ratings.
Therefore, being 100% faithful to the original book is the most classic TV series, what magic changes or the like, he doesn't need it, and legendary fans shouldn't need it either!
Because there are a lot of screenwriters, and the difficulty of adapting the script is very small, the progress of the adaptation is still very fast, and as soon as the New Year passes, the scripts of the two works will be released.
Liu Shita Hui asked the screenwriters to continue to adapt "Legend of China", "Legend of Wonder Heroes", "Legend of Black Eagle", "Legend of Black Panther", "Legend of Hidden Heroes", as for the remaining three works of "Legend of the Goddess", "Legend of Cuckoo", and "Legend of the Swordsman", don't pay attention to it for the time being.
After the scripts of "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu" were released, Liu Xiahui couldn't wait to summon Director Li Da and Director Lai Da to discuss with them about preparing for filming.
"Director Li, Director Lai, this is the script of "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu", you can take a look at it first, anyway, my requirements are very simple, you must strive for excellence during filming, and be 100% loyal to the original work. โ
Speaking of this, Liu Xiahui smiled slightly and said confidently: "As for money, it is not a problem, as long as it is a necessary expense, even if you spend three or two small goals on a serial, it is not a problem! There are also male and female leads, you can choose from the entire entertainment industry, no matter which big-name actor you like, I can come forward and invite people!"
Seeing that Director Li and Director Lai couldn't help but be moved, Liu Xiahui's voice changed and said: "Of course, it's still that sentence, everything is in accordance with the original work, including casting, this is what the two directors are good at, so I won't emphasize it more!"
Director Li is thin, the hairline on the top of his head has reached the back of his head, his ears are big, and he doesn't look like a big director at all, at this time he smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, rest assured, be loyal to the original work, that's what we have been doing, as long as Mr. Liu is not afraid of spending money, then we can give Mr. Liu a TV series comparable to a movie!"
Director Lai's figure is a little fat, his face is quite big, he has a gray beard, and he wears a gentleman's hat, which is a bit of a big director's style, and he also smiled when he heard this: "Director Li is right, for us, as long as we are not afraid of spending money, it is not difficult to make a TV series comparable to a movie!"
Liu Xiahui nodded and smiled: "That's okay, I won't say much about the rest, the time is tight and the task is heavy, after the completion of these two works, "The Legend of Shenzhou" and "The Legend of Wonder Heroes" will be filmed next, so the two directors have to hurry up!"
Speaking of this, Liu Xiahui suddenly remembered something and asked, "Also, do the two directors need me to invite the original author Wu Lao over as a consultant?"
Director Li said: "If you can invite Wu Lao as a consultant, it will naturally be a good thing, after all, the big boss, your requirements are 100% loyal to the original work, and it is still helpful to have the original author here." But Wu Lao is old now, and he doesn't know how much energy he has, so I'm afraid that his old man will be distracted, and that will be our sin!"
Liu Xia Hui said: "Don't worry about this, I only met Wu Lao some time ago, his old man's mental state is good, and he puts his work on the screen, that is one of the wishes of all authors, I think Wu Lao also wants to make some efforts." โ
Director Lai said: "The big boss is right, putting his own works on the screen is indeed one of the wishes of all authors. After all, the original author's understanding of the work is definitely not comparable to us readers. โ
Liu Xiahui said: "That's okay, I'll invite Wu Lao over as a consultant when I go back, Director Li and Director Lai, your task is to cast and prepare for filming as soon as possible, if there is any problem that can't be solved, just tell me directly, I'll solve it for you!"
When the two directors heard this, they said yes one after another, and originally they were not much interested in filming a work like the legendary series, which is not well-known at the moment.
After getting the many shooting conditions promised by Boss Liu, the enthusiasm of the two directors for filming was stimulated.
After all, for a director, you don't have to think about money, you don't have to think about ratings, you can use any star you want, and as long as you are faithful to the original work, there will be no investors to come and point fingers, this kind of freedom is what all directors dream of.
......
100,000 young ladies went to Lingnan, and millions of Hong Kong Yankees prostitutes Dongguan!
February 9, 2014 is the end of the service myth of Dongguan City, and the famous "Guan-style service" has become a masterpiece.
Then what "Star Wars", "Little Bee", "Ten Fingers Playing the Piano", "Roaming the World", "Trapeze" and other eye-opening services can only exist in fantasy.
Liu Xiahui is an honest man, a dedicated good man, he only knows about Guan-style service, and he has never thought of experiencing it, and even the above names are also known from the classic film "All the Way to the โWest".
Speaking of this "All the Way to the โWest", I also saw it on the otaku artifact express in my previous life, but unfortunately this otaku artifact is about to be attacked by the Harmony Divine Beast and become a legend that only circulates in the rivers and lakes.
After Guan City was swept away, the entire network was full of jokes, so that Liu Xiahui had to admire the creative level of those sand sculpture netizens.
Just when sand sculpture netizens continued to play stalks, the first phase of the Bobai cabbage project invested by Liu Xiahui in the county town has been almost completed, and those soil experts who were invited at a high price still have two brushes.
Although the time was short and the task was heavy, the task of soil improvement was completed on schedule according to Yanagi Hui's requirements.
In March, in the 30-kilometer radius of the county seat, the local experienced vegetable farmers have successively planted Bobai bracken.
In the past, Bobai bracken was only propagated with stems and seedlings, and the yield per mu was generally about 5,000 kilograms, and later it was changed to use bracken seeds to raise seedlings, transplant with seedlings, and reapply farmer's water and fertilizer, and the yield per mu increased to about 8,000 to 10,000 kilograms.
Since the latter has a higher yield per mu, Liu Xiahui naturally chooses the latter.
In previous years, the area of the county planting Bobai cabbage is only about 300 acres, and the annual output is about 1.5 million kilograms.
Nowadays, the planting area of Bobai bracken has reached 10,000 mu, even according to the normal annual output, there are about 8 to 100,000 tons, and with the growth attribute bonus of golden finger, it is easy to double the output.
Therefore, it is booked that the annual output of Bobai cabbage this year will reach more than 200,000 tons.
And what is the price of Bo Bai Cabbage?
Not to mention that it is so far away overseas, just talking about Bobai local, every year when Bobai cabbage is just on the market, the price is not cheap, it can generally be sold for six or seven yuan a catty, and it can even be sold for ten yuan a catty when it is expensive.
When it is fully listed, the price will fall appropriately, but it will also cost four or five yuan a catty.
If it is the bracken grown in the two paddy fields of Nanmentang, it is even more priceless.
Even if the planting range is now larger and the output has skyrocketed, the national market is too big, and this 200,000 tons of bracken is really nothing, and it can't affect the price.
Moreover, with the quality bonus of gold fingers, the quality of this Bo white cabbage is even better than before, and the price will not only not drop, but Liu Xia Hui also considered whether to mention it!
Even at the price of five yuan a catty, 200,000 tons is worth 2 billion yuan.
This is only the first phase, and when the soil is improved next year and the whole county is planted, the output will not be as simple as 200,000 tons, and this number will have to be at least 10 times more.
In this way, the annual output value is as high as 20 billion, which is definitely a golden rooster that can lay eggs!
......
In mid-March, the casting of "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu" officially started filming.
Except for the heroine in "Legend of Martial Arts", the advice provided by Hui Yanashita, the rest of the roles are all decided by the director himself.
In fact, almost all of Wu Lao's characteristics are that the male protagonist is usually honest, wise and foolish, and is bullied by the heroine all day long. And the heroine is witty and intelligent, with a bit of brutal and willful flavor.
Like Murong Zining and Bai Yanyan in "Legend of Martial Arts", Xiao Jiao'er and Gan Fengfeng in "Legend of Jianghu", Mo Mingzhi and Murong Xiaoyan in "Legend of Shenzhou", and Murong Zhi and Mo Wen in "Legend of Black Eagle", are almost all copies of Guo Jing and Huang Rong.
Of course, if you really want to talk about it, Murong Zhi in "The Legend of Black Eagle" should be an exception, because he deliberately pretended to be an idiot, which is still different from the previous male protagonists.
"Legend of Martial Arts" is the first part of the legendary series, and the personality of Bai Yanyan, the heroine, is still relatively distinct, if it weren't for the older generation of actors who are a little older, the role of Bai Yanyan is played by the playful Zhu Yin or the beautiful Jia who brought Zhao Min to life, which is very suitable.
It's a pity that these two actresses that Liu Xiahui likes are not young anymore, Zhu Damei is forty-three years old, and Jia Damei is also forty years old, so it is a bit inappropriate for them to play teenage girls.
Of course, because the legendary series are written in the form of sequels, it is still very appropriate to let Zhu Da Beauty or Jia Da Beauty play the middle-aged and elderly heroine.
Among the new generation of actors, although there are many personalities suitable for the heroine, the itchy Liu Shita Hui still recommended a female star he liked to Director Li Da.
This female star is none other than Zhang Da Meinu, who has countless fans in her previous life with the online drama "The Promotion of the Crown Princess".
Liu Xiahui feels that Zhang Da Beauty's figure and appearance are still very in line with his aesthetics!
Of course, at this time, Zhang Damei had not yet started filming "The Promotion of the Crown Princess", and she was still an unknown little transparent in the entertainment industry, and few people knew her.
In addition to recommending Zhang Da Beauty to "Legend of Martial Arts", Liu Xiahui handed over everything else to the two directors, in order to maintain suspense, he didn't even go to the set once, so that when "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu" began to play, he would keep the surprise to the greatest extent.
Just when "Legend of Martial Arts" and "Legend of Jianghu" started filming in a low-key manner, Mr. Ma personally called to meet Liu Xiahui, and a meaning was revealed on the phone, hoping to talk to Liu Xiahui about Didi and Kuaidi's two taxi software.
At this time, with the completion of the merger of Didi and Da Huang Feng, Didi dominates the entire taxi software market, and the only opponent is Kuaid, which is supported by Alipay.
Of course, Didi Taxi, which has integrated Didi, Rhubarb Feng, and Qiandu Taxi, has thrown off a few streets in the market share of taxi-hailing software.
At this time, Mr. Ma called to talk about this, and Liu Xiahui didn't know what Mr. Ma thought, calculating the time, Ali Group should be listed this year, maybe it has something to do with this?
Liu Xia Hui secretly guessed, and then smiled faintly, no matter what Mr. Ma thought, anyway, if he wants to talk about it, he just needs to see the move!
Because Mr. Ma took the initiative to talk, after Liu Xiahui agreed, Mr. Ma flew to Gui Province with his personal bodyguard the next day and came to the headquarters of Liu's Group - Liu's Building!
Liu Xia Hui came down to greet him personally, and then picked up the wind and washed the dust for Mr. Ma at the [World's No. 1 Chinese Restaurant] on the top floor!
