287. TV drama project
When the news of Wangyi's reorganization of the game team and the decision to invest 30 million to develop an online game of the same type reached Zhou Fangyuan's ears, he was discussing the media company with Sun Jing.
After some investigation and analysis, Sun Jing decided to follow Zhou Fangyuan, she spent a few days to finish the work at hand, and called Zhou Fangyuan out with a phone call.
When the two were discussing the first work of the media company, the third brother's phone called Zhou Fangyuan's mobile phone, and on the phone, he told Zhou about the new actions of the property and his worries.
"Don't worry about ......"
Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile, "Third brother, the domestic market is very large, not a company or a game can be completely seized, what we want to do is not monopoly, but to make the cake bigger and stronger." Since Mr. Ding has this determination, let him do it, after all, there is competition to survive, if there is really only one game company left in China, then we are not far from death. Besides, you're not at ease with me, don't worry, I've been paying attention to the game company's affairs, I believe in the quality of our games, if Mr. Ding wants to build it with ingenuity, there will be no results in two or three years, if it is shoddy...... Third brother, you don't have to worry about it. ”
"Then it doesn't matter what happens?"
On the other side of the phone, the third brother said unwillingly.
"No matter, let him do it, we're backed by Blizzard, and we can't fight the game, so you can rest assured. ”
Zhou Fangyuan comforted the other party.
He didn't say nonsense, in terms of game quality, there are few companies in China that can be compared with Blizzard, this is not belittling himself and increasing the ambition of others, and this is the case. The former Journey to the West has this ability, but unfortunately the big talk is already its own thing, although the dream is also very powerful, but the painting style of the dream talk is too cartoonish, and for a long time, it has not been accepted by the mainstream.
And not to mention other games, the two sides are completely incomparable.
"Alright then, you're the boss, you have the final say. ”
The third brother shrugged and said.
"Don't say that, third brother, don't forget, the hospital network also has your share. In short, Mr. Ding doesn't have to worry about it, I can't go back during this time, you help me keep an eye on the people on Treasure Island, Plants vs. Zombies is about to be completed, I expect the game to be launched next month, you must not let them drop the chain for me. ”
"Don't worry, Sun Fatzi is staring at it every day, I will go over to see it when I have time, there will be no problems." ”
"That's good, by the way, how is the progress of Senior Huang?"
Zhou Fangyuan suddenly remembered Huang Dacaizi, who had just arrived, and on the third day after he left Hong Kong Island, the people from the hospital network had passed. After signing a cooperation agreement with the other party, Huang Dacaizi immediately began to arrange the music.
Now that more than half a month has passed, he has not asked how the composition is progressing, and now that the third brother has called, he just took the opportunity to ask.
"I've done most of it, the soundtrack of Plants vs. Zombies is simpler, but it's more difficult to talk about Journey to the West, I just talked to that senior Huang on the phone the day before yesterday, and he told me that he is completely uninspired now, and he doesn't know how to start......"
Through the phone, Zhou Listing could feel the helplessness in the third brother's heart.
He was also very helpless, he thought that it would be foolproof to find Senior Huang, but now it seems that it is still a little bit worse. Writing lyrics, composing music and writing songs, this kind of thing is the most inspirational, anything is easy to do if you are inspired, and it will be troublesome if you are not inspired, and this kind of thing still can't be urged, so you can only wait.
Fortunately, Zhou Fangyuan is not in a hurry to make the game online, and he also hopes that the big words in his hand must at least reach the level of his previous life, otherwise he might as well not do this game and ruin the classics in vain.
So he'd rather work hard than let the game go online in a hurry.
This is also the reason why he came up with Plants vs. Zombies, as a game that was popular in the previous life, Plants vs. Zombies naturally has its advantages, the only drawback is that the playability of the game is really not high enough, and it can only maintain its popularity for a period of time.
But that's enough, a period of popularity has given distant games time to transition, and enough distant games to prepare for the main Journey to the West.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Fangyuan saw Sun Jing's curious gaze head-on.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Fangyuan asked with a smile.
"What you just said about Mr. Ding......"
"Oh, it's Wangyi's Ding tired. ”
Zhou Fangyuan said with a chuckle.
"Ding Lei? That's a big shot, are you right with him?"
Sun Jing was even more curious.
"It's not okay, it's that everyone wants to get involved in the game field, I was a little bit earlier than him, and now Mr. Ding is a little unwilling and wants to re-enter. ”
Zhou Fangyuan took a sip of coffee and said lightly.
"Is it troublesome?"
Sun Jing asked.
"It's not troublesome, just like I said on the phone, our Huaxia market is too big, and it is impossible for one or two companies to completely eat the market, so everyone depends on their abilities. ”
Zhou Fangyuan didn't say much, he shook his head and put the coffee down, "I have an idea about the first work of the media company. ”
Then, he told a work that he liked very much in his previous life. The main content of the work is to describe the story of our people's police heroically following the grievances of the rivers and lakes to arrest a group of underworld gang members who are rampant in Hengzhou, and the story of pursuit and counter-pursuit, revenge and prevention of revenge between police and bandits.
The prototype of the story is not far away in Beihe Province, and this work has also achieved the status of Hong Lei Ge's first-line male star, especially the black boss he plays in the center, which is definitely at the level of three points. The various classic actions, classic shots, and classic dialogues in it, in retrospect, all make Zhou Fangyuan feel that this should be what the black boss should be.
And the role of the director of the public security bureau is also quite in place, and the sharp eyes and calm style of acting are exactly what the deputy director of the public security bureau should be.
That's right, this TV series that Zhou Fangyuan regards as a classic is "Conquest", and in the last 03 years, it also won the seventh place in the national ratings, which is really a rare classic drama.
So Zhou Fangyuan has no doubt that he wants to take down this drama, and it is now 2000, and the span between 03 is very small, and the main actors have already reached a considerable level, and there is no problem with copying.
"Such a TV series...... Will anyone watch it?"
"Of course, you can rest assured, the investment in this TV series will not be too big, and it is just a test of water for us, if it is filmed well, our distant media will be able to stand on the trend, if it fails...... That's okay, I don't care about this investment yet. ”
Zhou Fangyuan said with a chuckle.
"Uh...... Well, you have money, I have nothing to say. ”
Sun Jing spread her hands, "What about the script, do you already have a complete script?"
"No," Zhou Fangyuan shook his head, "but I know a good screenwriter, you can ask him for help." ”
"You're talking about ......"
"Cheng Yuxin, you should know this person. ”
"Of course I know, this is a well-known editor in the circle, but shall we please move him......
"As long as you have money, how can you invite someone who can't move, you go and talk about it, bring my story, talk to him, you weigh the price yourself, get the script out first, and talk about the rest later. You are an expert in this area, so I will be very relieved to leave this matter completely to you, I can provide you with funds and resources, I only want results. How? Can you do it?"
Zhou asked with a smile while turning the coffee cup.
"Of course no problem, like you said, as long as you have money, there is nothing you can't do, you just wait for my good news. ”
Sun Jing smiled and nodded.
She was also the vice president of a media company before, and she has been engaged in crew-related work, which can be said to be familiar to her. The only thing she worries about is the problem of funds, but looking at Zhou Fangyuan's posture, it seems that funds are not worth mentioning at all, so what else does she have to worry about? Just find someone to write the script, and then find a director, find a star, and find a scene to form a crew.
As for the various reviews and approvals related to TV dramas, this is all Sun Jing's business, the only thing Zhou Fangyuan needs to do is to invest and reinvest, he is responsible for spending money and determining the plan, and he does not need to be responsible for other things.
The two chatted for a while, and it was almost time for lunch.
Today, Lin Yueya was called away by Teacher Ji, saying that she wanted her to accompany her cousin to the playground to play, but in fact, what was her idea, Zhou Fangyuan could not know?
began to tie Lin Yueya to her side for various reasons, her brother's birthday today, accompany her brother to play tomorrow, meet a teacher the day after tomorrow, and so on...... Anyway, Zhou Youli hadn't seen Lin Yueya for a few days, and if he didn't want it to be fake, he couldn't forcibly stop Lin Yueya from going to his uncle's house.
And Lin Yueya herself must have opinions, but she hasn't broken out yet, and one day she will break out by herself, and the fun will be great.
It's far away, in short, Lin Yueya has no time recently, Zhou Fangyuan can only mess with Duan Xiao's mallets, and today Sun Jing happened to be here, and he didn't plan to go back, so he directly sent an invitation to Sun Jing.
Of course, Sun Jing would not refuse the boss's invitation, the two had a meal in a hotel with a good grade, and they were going to go back after eating, Zhou Fangyuan thought about it and decided to take Sun Jing to listen to a cross talk.
He had told Sun Jing before that he wanted her to sign a cross talk group, but Sun Jing has been busy with investigation and analysis in the past few days, and she has not done this. It just so happened that there was time today, and Sun Jing didn't have any other work, so Zhou Fangyuan wanted to take her to see Guo Gang's team.
Of course, Sun Jing had no opinion, so the two walked directly to the teahouse they went to last time after coming out of the hotel. In the teahouse, Zhou Fangyuan once met Guo Gang, when they came, Guo Gang was talking cross talk on stage, the two found a place to sit down, and began to listen quietly.
