Chapter 481: Laying Golden Eggs
The veteran employees of Bright Distillery felt as if they were dreaming.
A few months ago, the distillery was on the verge of bankruptcy and no one wanted to take over.
The employees couldn't even get their previous salaries, and their faces were sad, and their hair was about to turn white.
The result was less than half a year.
The Bright Distillery is alive!
Only Xu Xiuwen felt that all this was expected by him.
The foundation of the Bright Distillery is very good, and the wine produced is not bad in taste or anything.
It's just that the leaders of the factory before were black-hearted and took the factory on a crooked path.
His appearance is not untimely.
A little later, the once-glorious distillery will go out of business entirely.
Relying on the information gap across the ages brought about by rebirth, as well as a series of operations, the Bright Distillery was successfully pulled back from the grave.
It seems incredible to others.
In Xu Xiuwen's view, it is a matter of course.
The future of Bright Distillery is bright.
This.
Anyone can see it.
After some leaders of Guangming City and Langya City learned about the situation of the distillery, they all had the same idea.
That is, the winery sold it to Xu Xiuwen cheaply.
But everyone understands it.
At that time, no one in the winery was willing to accept it.
Even if someone is willing to take over.
It's also hard to bring the winery back to life.
It seems that only Xu Xiuwen can do this step.
This can't help but make many leaders deeply remember Xu Xiuwen's name.
Especially the deputy SZ of Langya City.
When he first bought the Bright Distillery, Xu Xiuwen almost drained his wallet and was burdened with huge debts.
At that time, I thought that if the winery couldn't make money, it could only make money by making TV series to make up for the hole here.
Now there is no need to worry about debt.
The big order signed by Qian Jian alone was enough to pay off all the money.
Now the Bright Distillery seems to have become a daily gold presence.
It's a golden toad that spits gold!
……
Xu Xiuwen has been very busy recently, and he has no time to drink saliva.
So much so that even Xiao Yu'er and her little cousin Ning Jiali couldn't participate in the school banquet.
It is worth mentioning.
Jiang Ruoyu was admitted to Jinling University of Political Science and Law.
Ning Jiali was admitted to Jinling Normal University.
The time when the two held the college banquet was not the same day, but Xu Xiuwen still couldn't find time to participate.
He just asked his mother to help him with his share of the gift money.
With Xu Xiuwen's current wealth.
Of course, I won't be stingy and only give a few hundred dollars.
Jiang Ruoyu and Ning Jiali, he each gave 5,000 yuan in gifts.
Xu Xiuwen still remembered that Ning Wanqiu told him on the phone that after receiving such a high gift money, his aunt's happy mouth couldn't close.
He also said that his aunt's temper has changed a lot now, she speaks enthusiastically, and she is also generous.
After Xu Xiuwen heard this, of course he knew what the reason was.
Because I didn't participate in Jiang Ruoyu and Ning Jiali's college banquet.
Both girls complained about it.
On different nights, Xu Xiuwen received calls from Jiang Ruoyu and Ning Jiali respectively.
Both were coquettish on the phone.
Xu Xiuwen coaxed them for a while before calming them down.
For this reason, he had to agree to send them to the school to report at the beginning of the school year.
Everything is going according to plan at the distillery.
Xu Xiuwen also temporarily left Guangming City and went to Jinling.
Xu Xiuwen was very busy during this time.
But someone is busier than him.
That's Bai Yue'er.
When "Why Sheng Xiao" was in episode 20, the ratings exceeded 8%.
If it is CCTV, the ratings of more than 8% will only make people feel that the results are good, and they will not be too surprised.
But on a satellite TV, it should not be underestimated.
It's a pity that the ratings have never surpassed Xu Xiuwen's first drama "Boys Over Flowers".
But the influence of the second drama is far greater than that of the first.
The first drama.
Bai Yue'er is a rookie actress.
Although the performance is very eye-catching.
But because there is no fame.
In addition, I do not participate in events and do not accept interviews.
And most people think she may be a flash in the pan.
So it didn't attract much attention in the circle.
But this show is different.
Bai Yue'er once again showed excellent acting skills that did not match her age.
This has been recognized by many insiders.
The audience pays more attention to the appearance and temperament of the actors.
The actresses in the more popular TV series.
Although the appearance and temperament are not bad.
But that's compared to the average person.
If you compare it with Bai Yue'er, it suddenly looks a little dwarfed.
Bai Yue'er's sweet and pure temperament and lovely smile.
made her stand out from many actresses at once and was remembered by many people.
Fame also began to grow explosively.
Bai Yue'er is not the most well-known actress at the moment.
But definitely the actress whose fame is growing the fastest.
While fame soared.
Advertising endorsements, interviews, and program invitations are blowing like raindrops.
Bai Yue'er was so busy that she didn't have time to sleep.
According to the news reported by her little assistant.
Bai Yue'er only needs to sit down now, as long as she doesn't deliberately cheer up, she will fall asleep in no more than three minutes.
It's stuck to this point!
Of course.
Her hard work was not in vain.
Attendance fees for various events are very soft.
Among the numerous advertising endorsements.
Xu Xiuwen chose only two of them.
Others are like health care products, underwear, food endorsements, etc.
All of them were rejected by him.
Xu Xiuwen's choice of two advertising endorsements.
The first is the endorsement of Head & Shoulders Shampoo.
Head & Shoulders is a well-known shampoo brand owned by Procter & Gamble.
Procter & Gamble is one of the world's largest consumer goods companies.
It's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree.
Since entering China, Haifei has developed well and has always been a first-line brand.
The spokespersons who can be invited by Head & Shoulders are almost all first-line stars.
Bai Yue'er is obviously not a first-line star.
So Xu Xiuwen was very surprised when he received the invitation.
He immediately understood that Head & Shoulders was very optimistic about Bai Yue'er's future development.
With such an endorsement, Xu Xiuwen has no reason to refuse.
Another advertising endorsement is the endorsement of Purai skincare products.
Born in 2003 in the beautiful city of Hangzhou, the brand is the earliest cosmetics brand launched by Purai Cosmetics Co., Ltd., focusing on deep-sea skin care research.
With a distinctive brand image, accurate market positioning, and innovative marketing strategies, it has maintained a stable and rapid growth trend.
Before Xu Xiuwen's rebirth, Polai had always been one of the top ten domestic skin care brands.
However, in 2006, although the development of Polai, which had just been born for 3 years, was much worse than the first-line brands such as Nature Hall and Pechoin.
Xu Xiuwen didn't look down on Polai.
It is a good choice to cooperate with a company with a stable development trend like Perlai, no matter what aspect you consider.
These two endorsements alone earned the company 6 million.
The current Bai Yue'er is not an ordinary actor.
It's an old hen that lays golden eggs.
The fame of other actors signed by the company has also increased rapidly.
As a result, the company has received many invitations to events and programs.
However, compared to Bai Yue'er, it is still far worse.
Bai Yue'er is definitely a well-deserved sister of the company now, a money-absorbing weapon.
Seeing that Bai Yue'er can have such a day.
Xu Xiuwen was pleased.
Who would have thought that the girl who loved to talk to him at the beginning has now become a very famous female star?
Xu Xiuwen unconsciously remembered that night on campus.
That pear-flavored kiss.
Xu Xiuwen was just in a trance for a moment, and immediately came to his senses.
Hang Fei was also busy, but not as busy as Bai Yue'er.
A week ago, he returned to the company.
Hang Fei is a character who can't be idle for a moment.
The second drama is still on the air.
He has already started to think about the filming of the next drama.
For this.
Hang Fei has been going back to the company for a meeting with Xu Xiuwen recently.
Xu Xiuwen has been procrastinating.
Finally settled all the things at the distillery.
Only then did he drag his tired body and drive to Jinling.
At this moment, he was sitting in the company office in Jinling.
Hang Fei sat across from him.
Xu Xiuwen had already understood his thoughts through what Hang Fei had just said.
Hang Fei wants to set up a project as soon as possible and shoot the next drama.
This idea coincides with Xu Xiuwen.
Although Hang Fei has already filmed two dramas independently, he can be regarded as quite experienced.
But in fact, he has just graduated, and he is not very old, but he is young and energetic.
Let him make a drama and then rest for most of the year, or even a year or two.
He couldn't do it.
While you are young and energetic, of course, you must seize the time to shoot a few more TV series.
Before I met Xu Xiuwen.
Hang Fei is still struggling with whether to listen to his parents and go home to find a stable job in the future, or go to the big city to break through.
But after knowing Xu Xiuwen.
He filmed two TV series in a row.
Not only did each drama sell at a good price, but the ratings also broke new highs repeatedly.
At this time, Hang Fei's self-confidence also rose.
He feels that he is the one who was born to eat the director's bowl of rice.
At this moment, he is no longer worried about whether he will have a drama in the future.
It's about figuring out how to make a better work.
That's right.
In private, he often imagines major domestic awards.
He would love to win the Best Director award.
Xu Xiuwen didn't think about winning the award.
He had only one thing on his mind.
That's to make money.
This TV series is simply profitable.
Investing one or two million can have a return of six or seven times.
It's easier than going to the stock market with a sack to pick up money.
No one can resist the temptation.
If you don't make a TV series, many employees in the company will have nothing to do.
But they still have to be paid.
Xu Xiuwen didn't have the idea of raising idlers.
Nor is he worried that the staff will object.
Because when filming, employees have additional bonuses in addition to their basic salary.
When you're not filming, you only have a basic salary.
Although the base salary is not bad either.
But the company is full of young people.
Young people, who wants to mess around?
Who doesn't want to work hard and earn a little more money?
Therefore, when it comes to continuing to shoot TV series, there is no one in the company who disagrees.
In this case.
If Xu Xiuwen is pressed, he will not be allowed to film.
Instead, he became a sinner.
Xu Xiuwen and Hang Fei had a brief exchange.
In the end, it was decided to continue the remake of what he wrote.
After all, these have been successful and recognized by the market.
Remakes are the least risk-free.
Xu Xiuwen has published a total of five books on Jinjiang.
"Why Sheng Xiao", "Men Over Flowers", "Three Lives and Three Worlds", "Langya Bang", "Flower Thousand Bone"
The first two have already been remade and have been a huge success.
Among the remaining three, the most suitable remake for now should be "Flower Thousand Bone"
First of all, it is because there is a fairy sword fire in front of Zhuyu, but there are not many works that follow the trend.
In the market period, the expectation and acceptance of Xianxia dramas will be relatively high.
However, after careful consideration.
Xu Xiuwen also passed "Flower Thousand Bone".
For two reasons, Xu Xiuwen felt that he couldn't shoot.
First, the filming of costume fairy dramas is difficult.
Although Hang Fei has successfully directed two-step excellent works, after all, they are all urban dramas, and he has no experience in controlling costume dramas.
Xu Xiuwen was worried that he couldn't control it.
The second and most important reason.
That's the cost.
The filming cost of costume fairy tale dramas is definitely much higher than that of normal urban dramas.
First of all, costumes, props and landscaping will cost a lot of financial resources.
With the company's current financial resources, of course, it can be filmed.
But Xu Xiuwen didn't want to take a risk.
It's all filming anyway.
Why not make a low-cost and easy-to-control drama?
Why take the risk.
For both reasons.
Xu Xiuwen decided not to remake these three books for the time being.
Xu Xiuwen told Hang Fei what he thought.
cooperated with two dramas in a row.
Their friendship is very deep.
Hang Fei didn't feel that Xu Xiuwen didn't trust his directing strength, but supported his approach very much.
"But in that case, we'll have to find someone to write the script."
"No, you don't! I'm planning to release a new book recently, and I think it could be the subject of our next remake. ”
】
"You're going to send out a new book?" Hang Fei looked a little surprised.
"Hmm."
"Your book lovers have a good eye."
"Haha......"
Then Xu Xiuwen told Hang Fei the general plot of his next book.
The male protagonist is the new manager of a coffee shop.,In order to revive the performance of the coffee shop.,The male owner implements an innovative scheme.,That is, the waiters in the coffee shop are all young beautiful men.。
Because the female protagonist has short hair, she is mistaken for a boy by the male protagonist.
In order to make a living, the heroine will make mistakes and work in a coffee shop.
The male protagonist's cousin is a TV drama director, and his girlfriend went abroad.
The male protagonist has always had a crush on his cousin's girlfriend, but he never said it.
In the relationship between the male protagonist and the female protagonist, he gradually fell in love with the female protagonist who he thought was a boy......
If you often watch Korean dramas, you will find out.
How is the plot setting mentioned by Xu Xiuwen so similar to the Korean drama "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop"?
You're not mistaken.
Xu Xiuwen is talking about the plot of "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop".
This once popular Korean drama.
Xu Xiuwen has seen it.
The classic character plot is still deeply remembered by him to this day.
The drama premiered on KR TV on July 2, 2007.
It is based on the same name of writer Lee Sun-mi.
None of Xu Xiuwen's publications on Jinjiang so far are original to him.
If you talk about copying domestic TV series, Xu Xiuwen is also worried that he will rob others of the opportunity to become famous.
Copy kr's TV series.
He didn't have any worries.
KR can steal even festivals.
What happened to him copying a few TV series?
And Xu Xiuwen will not copy exactly the same, and must be localized and modified according to the domestic situation.
Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't change it.
Because now in July 2006.
Lee Sun-mi hasn't written this book yet, and the TV series doesn't even have a shadow.
Xu Xiuwen can say it to anyone with confidence.
That's his original work.
After listening to Xu Xiuwen's finished talking about the plot synopsis, Hang Fei was very interested.
He thinks it's a very good subject.
The male protagonist and the fake little female protagonist fall in love, thinking that they are in love with a man.
I was entangled and hesitated a lot, but in the end I found out that the other party was actually a woman.
This reversal can make a lot of jokes.
It must be very interesting to shoot.
Just listened to Xu Xiuwen say a few words, and he was already looking forward to the script.
