Chapter 112: The Three Sisters Compete for Beauty
The crew of "Kunlun" wanted to take a set of makeup photos for several leading actors to make posters, so Du Qifeng invited Lin Youlun to help give reference advice.
TVB has also made posters for TV series filmed before, but those posters are only used to match the promotion of TV dramas, the printing volume is small, and the quality is not very exquisite. This time, the professional videographer who was invited at no expense carefully filmed the poster, and it was still inspired by Lin Youlun.
Hong Kong's film and television, publishing industry has not yet formed the concept of "peripheral products", when Lin Youlun suggested to Huang Yuyun to launch the hardcover posters, T-shirts, stationery and other peripheral products of "Sou Shen Ji", Huang Yuyun felt that making these things could not make much money, and it was a waste of time, but he did not know that the comic peripheral products of later generations were the most profitable of all peripheral products.
Lin Youlun bought out the peripheral management rights of the "Sou Shen Ji" comic for only 200,000 yuan, and Huang Yuyun felt that he took advantage of Lin Youlun at that time, so he drew a set of hardcover character posters for Lin Youlun for free.
Before the opening of peripheral stores in Hong Kong, Lin Youlun had already contacted partners in Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and other places, and fixed the overseas sales channels of peripheral products with the profit distribution plan of "you seven and I three".
Lin Youlun can crack down on piracy in Hong Kong through various channels, but he can't reach the overseas market, so he has no choice but to tie up some powerful and powerful partners in the local area, if piracy is rampant in these areas, it is these people who will lose the most, involving their own interests, and they will make great efforts to crack down on piracy without Lin Youlun's request.
Facts have proved that Lin Youlun's idea is very successful, after the opening of the surrounding stores in Hong Kong, the monthly turnover will exceed 300,000 yuan, plus the dividends of overseas sales, the net profit is more than 500,000 yuan. Huang Yuyun regretted it at this time, and hurriedly produced a batch of peripheral products of "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and "Drunken Fist", and learned from Lin Youlun's model to make it.
"Dragon Tiger Gate" and "Drunken Fist" have been serialized, and the influence cannot be compared with "Sou Shen Ji", Huang Yuxun certainly does not earn as much as Lin Youlun from peripheral products, but there is such a way to make money out of thin air, and it is so easy to make money, other comic companies will naturally follow suit.
The "peripheral fever" blown by the comic industry quickly attracted the attention of the film and television industry, and TVB TV produces a lot of popular dramas with ratings every year, but no one in the company has ever thought that posters, stills, and other things can be sold for money.
"Kunlun" is the current No. 1 rated hit drama of wireless, and Shao Yifu immediately decided to launch the peripheral products of this TV series.
When Du Qifeng talked about this, Lin Youlun thought that the wireless action was quite fast, and learned that Zhou Comin, Wang Guxian, and Qiu Shuzhen would all change into ancient costumes to take pictures, so he agreed to Du Qifeng's invitation and followed over to watch the fun.
At this time, Zhou Comin, Wang Guxian, and Qiu Shuzhen all changed into costumes, and when Lin Youlun and To Qifeng came over together, they were making up on the spot.
Wang Guxian didn't see Lin Youlun's figure for a long time, and thought that he was angry with himself, and was regretting that he shouldn't have been petty before, when he suddenly saw Lin Youlun's smiling appearance in the mirror, and suddenly became angry, his apricot eyes were round, and he looked at him angrily.
Lin Youlun touched his chin with his hand, looked at Wang Guxian's appearance in the mirror, and said, "It would be nice if the eyebrows were thicker." ”
The makeup artist next to him didn't know the identity of Lin Youlun, but when he saw that director To Qifeng was politely accompanying him, he explained: "The ancients often used the expression 'willow eyebrows' when describing beauties, and made Miss Wang's eyebrows thinner, which is more in line with the requirements of ancient costume styling." ”
"TV dramas are facing modern audiences, and the first thing we have to consider is not the aesthetics of the ancients, but the aesthetics of the audience. Her face shape is not suitable for thin eyebrows, so it will feel better to make her eyebrows thicker. ”…,
The makeup artist was skeptical of Lin Youlun's statement, but To Qifeng asked him to do what Lin Youlun said.
As soon as the effect came out, the thick eyebrows were really more suitable for Wang Guxian's appearance, and the makeup artist admired Lin Youlun very much, and said a bunch of compliments, Lin Youlun pouted, thinking that I had seen her more amazing shape.
Then Lin Youlun came to Zhou Comin's side again, and appeared unknowingly, startling Zhou Comin, who was putting on makeup.
She thought that Lin Youlun was here to say goodbye to her, so she said: "I have already washed the thermos box, remember to go back and say hello to my aunt on my behalf." ”
"I'm just here, so you're in a hurry to drive me away?"
Zhou Comemin let out a soft "ah", and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, looking indescribably gentle and cute, she remembered that the makeup on her face had not been put on yet, so she hurriedly covered her face and said, "Don't let me see it, no one has done it yet." ”
"Okay, I've seen it just now, and in my heart, you're the most beautiful without makeup." Lin Youlun leaned down and whispered in Zhou Yimin's ear.
Zhou Comin's makeup artist had already received Du Qifeng's eye signal and stood far away, so what Lin Youlun said to Zhou Comin was not afraid of being listened to by others.
Zhou Comin said "hate" on his lips, but he liked it tightly in his heart.
She was happy for a while, and then her face became a little depressed, "I'm afraid you just told Miss Wang about this, right?" ”
"Still angry about me bringing her soup?"
Zhou Comin didn't speak, but his expression was clearly acquiescing.
"Okay, that soup was originally boiled for you by my mother, and then I divided it into two parts, one was specially for you, and the other was originally intended for you to share with everyone, who knew that you and she were there, and then I took it for her."
Zhou Yimin pouted, and accepted Lin Youlun's explanation.
"Don't give me anything like her in the future!"
Lin Youlun shrugged his shoulders and joked, "Then I'll give myself to you." ”
Zhou Comemin noticed from the mirror that his face was red, and he was so embarrassed that his eyes immediately avoided the mirror.
Seeing that Zhou Comin was so shy, Lin Youlun was embarrassed to continue teasing her, beckoned the makeup artist to come over and continue, he stood aside with his hands and watched for a while, and suddenly remembered that Qiu Shuzhen's mood seemed to be a little wrong today, so he said to Zhou Comin and walked towards Qiu Shuzhen's makeup.
Qiu Shuzhen had already put on her makeup and was sitting there alone in a daze, when she heard the footsteps and raised her head, she saw Lin Youlun's face first surprised, and then quickly dimmed.
"Can we talk?"
Lin Youlun pointed to the seat next to Qiu Shuzhen, and Qiu Shuzhen nodded.
Lin Youlun sat down and said in the first sentence: "I forgot to congratulate you, "The Saint of Gambling" should start filming soon." ”
He thought that Qiu Shuzhen would be in a better mood when he mentioned this matter, but it didn't seem to have much effect.
"He told me at the beginning that the heroine of this play might have to be replaced, and then he said that he had settled everything and that the heroine was still me." Qiu Shuzhen seemed to be saying something that had nothing to do with her, and she couldn't hear any emotional fluctuations in her tone.
Lin Youlun knew that the "he" in Qiu Shuzhen's mouth was referring to Wang Jing, and frowned slightly, but did not say anything.
Qiu Shuzhen then said a sentence that surprised Lin Youlun.
"Actually, I know that it was your idea to choose me after the heroine."
"He came to me for this." Lin Youlun explained for Wang Jing.
"Aren't they all the same?" Qiu Shuzhen raised her head and looked at Lin Youlun with bright eyes, "Without you, I wouldn't be the heroine of this movie." ”
Lin Youlun said very frankly: "I have my considerations, and it's not entirely because of you. ”
"I don't get a penny for this drama, and after the filming is over, I have nothing to do with him." Qiu Shuzhen said this, which made Lin Youlun very surprised, "Have you really thought about it?" ”
Qiu Shuzhen sighed faintly, "Actually, I've always envied Miss Zhou and Miss Wang. ”
"Just because they're the main characters in this play and you're the supporting role?" Lin Youlun knew what Qiu Shuzhen wanted to say, but deliberately diverted the topic.
Qiu Shuzhen's watery eyes were full of amorousness, and the two thin lips, with that pointed chin, added a lot of beauty, "This drama hasn't started yet, how do you know that I will lose to them?" ”
