Time goes back in time, a day ago on the night......
Hiding in a converted study in one bedroom, Ye Sumang was burying his head in writing the outline of a TV series.
After weighing the pros and cons between movies and TV series for a long time, Ye Sumang finally chose the road of TV series, although it seems to be a bit cheap, after all, TV series and movies cannot be compared, but in terms of income, there is no doubt that TV series will bring more to Ye Sumang.
However, in this new TV series, Ye Sumang also has his own things that he must think about.
First of all, there is the question of subject matter.
Domestic anti-Japanese war dramas, palace fighting dramas and aiqing dramas and short mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas in the parents are obviously not suitable, the pace of life of Americans is faster, and the cultural knowledge they receive is also very different from that in China, such as anti-Japanese war dramas, do you really think that Lao Mei will understand the eight roads, and the Kuomintang weishenme hates the Japanese so much?
The national conditions are different, and the direction of thinking is naturally not the same, and those that are biased towards the West can be accepted by Shijie, these themes were quickly summarized by Ye Sumang, and after a series of screenings, Ye Sumang finally circled one, that is, the end of the world!!
The reason that drove Ye Sumang to make this decision is also due to a novel that Ye Sumang read about the content of model zombies, and that different starting point gave Ye Sumang a lot of inspiration, and that kind of film is not suitable for making a movie, so Ye Sumang quickly thought of this after deciding to shoot a TV series.
However, for the original novel, Ye Sumang didn't want to do it.
That novel focuses more on survival skills. However, in Ye Sumang's view, survival skills are important, but the human heart at the end of the day is indeed more interesting.
After all, it will be a society without morality and legal constraints, and the dark side of humanity will be infinitely expanded, for survival or desire. Many people will do a lot of things that they can't think of on weekdays, especially the terrifying and life-threatening existence of zombies, which will inspire the dark side of human beings.
With ideas, Ye Sumang's pen is like a god.
First of all, the protagonist must have a sense of justice, but he can't be blind, calm, have a sense of the overall situation, and have a sense of responsibility is a necessary condition for the script of a leader in the apocalypse, and of course, a certain survival skill cannot be missing.
And in people's minds. In addition to the hero, the embodiment of the general sense of justice, I am afraid that the police are the most mentioned objects, and the hero is naturally impossible to appear in Ye Sumang's script, after all, this is a TV series as close to life as possible, and there is no "Resident Evil" The heroine has the ability to carry the undefeated record of the army alone, so in the end, the protagonist's profession was set by Ye Sumang as a policeman in a small town.
Weishenme is a small town?
This is completely Ye Sumang's own thoughts, sometimes it takes a process to fight monsters and upgrade, at least from the process of accepting the end to getting used to the end of the world. The protagonist can't hang up as soon as he comes out, a relatively densely populated city. A sparsely populated town will undoubtedly give the protagonist a better chance of survival, so that the TV series can also seem more reasonable.
As for those supporting roles, Ye Sumang quickly wrote them all one by one, and time passed unconsciously, and it was already one o'clock in the morning.
"Su Mang, you haven't slept yet?" The gentle sound of the door opening awakened Ye Sumang, who was immersed in creation. Looking back, Liu Yifei was standing at the door dozing off with her eyes rubbed.
"No, it's going to be done right away, and I don't think it's going to be delayed until tomorrow." Ye Sumang responded with a smile.
Liu Yifei nodded, not stopping Ye Sumang's creation. Thinking of it for so long, she knows very well that Ye Sumang at work is not very compromised, even if she is difficult to persuade, looking at her busy fiancé, Liu Yifei is also busy, grinding coffee beans, brewing a cup of steaming coffee, and connecting to an air humidifier to make the house no longer so dry, after being busy with everything, the girl sat quietly next to Ye Sumang, looking at her fiancé's serious codeword.
Looking at it, Liu Yifei was stupid unconsciously.
Ye Sumang looks delicate like a big girl on weekdays, and many people use beauty to describe Ye Sumang's appearance, but at this time, Liu Yifei found that it may be the reason why Ye Sumang has lost weight recently, the lines on the side of his face are becoming more and more obvious, and he is unexpectedly tough, which makes people feel a sense of perseverance at first glance.
Coupled with Ye Sumang's serious eyes at this moment, and his brows slightly furrowed because of thinking, no matter how you look at it, it is so attractive, Liu Yifei couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth, this is her fiancé, the best man.
"What are you laughing at?" Suddenly, a voice interrupted Liu Yifei's thoughts, and when she came back to her senses, it turned out that Ye Sumang was looking at herself with a smile and asking.
"No, how can you laugh, let's have a sip of coffee, it's getting cold." The girl's face turned red, and she couldn't answer that she was a nymphomaniac, so she said something else, just in time to see that Ye Sumang was still taking a sip of coffee, and changed the topic.
"Well, good coffee." Ye Sumang didn't dwell too much on this issue, and tasted the coffee carefully, which was worthy of being ground out by a careful little girl, silky and fragrant, very delicious.
"Well, it's really good, you can go and open a coffee shop, and the coffee you sell will definitely be popular all over North America." Ye Sumang took another sip, and then praised it unsatisfactorily.
These words of praise undoubtedly spoke to Liu Yifei's heart, the little girl laughed happily, obviously very useful for the praise with Ye Sumang, as for the matter of opening a coffee shop, it was selectively ignored by this girl, you must know that Liu Yifei is very lazy on weekdays, can sit and never stand, can lie down and never sit......
After laughing, Liu Yifei's attention was quickly attracted by the script on Ye Sumang's table.
"Ah, it's a zombie?" Without the fear and disgust of ordinary little girls when they saw this terrifying creature, Liu Yifei's eyes were full of interest.
is really a well-behaved girl on the surface and rebellious on the inside, Ye Sumang couldn't help but think with a smile.
Liu Yifei was holding a few storyboard scripts that she had just drawn, mainly describing the background of the TV series she asked to shoot.
However, looking at Liu Yifei's interested, Ye Sumang couldn't help but smile and asked, "Are you interested in playing a role in it?" ”
"Me?" Liu Yifei was really surprised this time, and her mouth looked incredulous.
"That's right. A TV series needs a lot of roles, and the protagonist may not have a choice, and I don't think the TV station will agree, but I can still decide on some important supporting roles, how about it, are you interested? But you've also read the script of this TV series. Maybe the styling will be a little embarrassing......"
"Of course it's no problem, it's no problem to be embarrassed, haha, Su Mang, I love you to death." Liu Yifei, who came back to her senses, immediately interrupted Ye Sumang's words, and threw herself into her fiancé's arms, and it was amazing and unexpected to be able to act in a TV series in North America.
But who made their fiancé Ye Sumang!!
Liu Yifei, who got such a surprise good news, couldn't sleep anymore, so she simply accompanied Ye Sumang until Ye Sumang finished writing the outline. The two fell asleep with each other in their arms......
The two woke up at ten o'clock in the morning, and after lunch, the two went straight to CW TV with the script.
After all, the TV series is just an idea, Ye Sumang is a film company and not a TV station, with a script, but all this still needs to find a TV station that can cooperate, otherwise all this can only exist in the imagination.
And Ye Sumang's first choice was naturally this CW TV station.
This is a newly established TV station, and compared to the old four channels, it is undoubtedly very young. The influence is not as great as the 'old four', but it is very bright. The main users of this TV station are the masses aged 16~32, which is the younger generation, and at the same time the generation with independent thoughts, and the generation with the most receptive ability.
People of this age who have experienced the Internet explosion are undoubtedly the best viewers of the script written by Ye Sumang called "Doomsday Survival", which is also the reason why Weishenme Ye Sumang did not go to the old fourth channel. Instead, he deliberately chose this new TV station, which was established less than two years after the merger.
Soon, the person Ye Sumang was waiting for arrived, but the result was very unsatisfactory.
The director, named Taylor, had a flat expression, saying that the script was okay and that he could make the purchase. But the director is not ready to hire Ye Sumang.
What is this called?
Ye Sumang wondered, if he didn't let himself be a director, what was the purpose of writing this script by himself? Therefore, Ye Sumang will not back down on this article, so Ye Sumang even implicitly raised the question of whether he can properly distribute dividends, but the final result is negative.
"To tell you the truth, Ye, you may be a genius in finance, especially on the Internet, but we don't agree with you in directing, of course, this is not to say that you are not suitable for this profession, in fact, you can win two Oscars for Best Foreign Language Film, which proves your talent in this industry.
But you also have to know that this is the United States, and the way you Chinese people are not going to work, I can't take a risk and invest a lot of money, but Zuihou is all lost, do you understand? With that, Taylor excused himself and left the lounge.
Ye Sumang was angry, he didn't expect that he would still be looked down upon after all, even if he came up with a suitable script, but it had already been denied, and it was fundamentally denied.
But if one road doesn't work, what's the matter, isn't there still four major stations? Ye Sumang was not discouraged, in his heart, CW's rejection was just a loss for their TV station, and Ye Sumang firmly believed that he would make this TV series he created into a classic.
Walking out of the lounge, Liu Yifei was waiting outside the door, and during the negotiation just now, Liu Yifei left the lounge under the pretext of going to the bathroom to avoid suspicion, but looking at her anxious little face, she knew that she was also very concerned about the outcome of the negotiation.
Ye Sumang didn't deceive anything, shrugged his shoulders at Liu Yifei, just a move, Liu Yifei lowered his head in frustration, understanding that this time the negotiation was a failure.
"They think the script is good, but they think my mind is difficult to control this TV series, but I will still prove it all, you go back to the car first, and we will go to the rest of the TV stations later, I believe that we will meet people who believe in me." Ye Sumang smiled and said with relief.
Liu Yifei nodded, clenched her little fist and cheered Ye Sumang, then turned around and walked outside.
And Ye Sumang walked in the direction of the bathroom, he drank too much water just now, and he didn't feel anything when he was negotiating, but at this time there was nothing to do, but he felt a little anxious.
After solving personal problems in the toilet cubicle, Ye Sumang tightened his belt and was about to go out to wash his hands, when he suddenly heard footsteps and conversations outside, and one of the voices was particularly familiar, officially Taylor, who had just talked to Ye Sumang.
"Oh, the Oriental is gone."
"Of course, you didn't look at his lost look, haha, what about being rich, what about the Hollywood studio boss, he really thought he was in Hollywood? It's a dream. ”
"That's right, I think so, I don't think this yellow-skinned monkey will sell the company in a year, return to his backward land, and shoot those rotten things......"
"I think so too, hahahahahahaha........."
Thank you so much for that. Between the partitions with no sound insulation effect, Ye Sumang listened to these words word for word into his ears, a sneer crossed the corner of his mouth, and listening to the sound of water flowing outside, Ye Sumang opened the door without hesitation.
"Scare ......!" Ye Sumang's sudden appearance undoubtedly frightened the two people present, and cold sweat instantly flowed down their heads.
Taylor exchanged glances with his colleagues, obviously thinking that what he had just said was heard by Ye Sumang, which made them feel a little apprehensive.
There is no way, although they despise the Oriental in front of them from the bottom of their hearts, but they have to admit that in the American society, the rich are the bosses, and even if the words just now are recorded by Ye Sumang, they are very likely to be sued for ethnic discrimination, with Ye Sumang's financial resources and the lawyer team behind them, it is very likely that they will go bankrupt......
But to their surprise, Ye Sumang's face was unusually calm, as if he hadn't heard their words at all, washed his hands, dried them, and then walked out of the bathroom with a steady pace.
"Whew...... I thought his fist was going to hit me in the face. Obviously, this is the one who has watched Ye Sumang's "The Grandmaster", and knows how hard this Oriental's fist is.
Taylor also had palpitations, but looking at Ye Sumang's disappearing back, he couldn't help but say stiffly: "He's just a coward, don't you see, he doesn't dare to say anything at all!" ”
"yes, yes......"
Is it really the way they think? Apparently not......
Ye Sumang felt that solving the problem with his fists was undoubtedly the lowest, and it was also very difficult to lose his identity by arguing like a shrew scolding the street, as for the solution, the recording in the mobile phone in Ye Sumang's hand was a good way to fight back, and the two of them probably couldn't imagine that what they were worried about had become a reality.
However, Ye Sumang is not ready to use this trick now, isn't it his director's ability that the other party discriminates, a sneer crossed the corner of Ye Sumang's mouth, he wants to succeed, and he wants to succeed, and then announce the miserable fate of these two guys with the attitude of a winner...... (To be continued......)
