Chapter 217: Coke Commercial
It didn't take long for Song Yu to receive news from Rao Yuan that Palace Entertainment had agreed to let Zhou Yujia be the heroine.
Obviously, in the face of tempting interests, the identity of Great Xia is only a minor issue.
The reply from Daxia Satellite TV was also very fast.
said that "Soldier Assault" was confirmed to be shortlisted.
After being shortlisted, along with other works, the judges will score and rank the first script, and the final first-place script will be selected.
Song Yu did not engage in special treatment because of his fame.
According to the schedule of the competition, the deadline is next Monday, and the results are next Friday.
I can only wait with peace of mind.
Song Yu didn't have anything to do during this time, so he went to work every day, and he seemed extremely diligent.
A new week.
He had a rare sight of a bird.
As an old employee of the company, in addition to part-time Song Yu's agent, he has been mixed into the position of deputy director of the artist department.
I'm too busy to see anyone now.
"There's an ad, you have to think about it."
Yanhu got straight to the point and handed him a copy of the information.
"Crazy Coke?"
Song Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What level?" β
Since its birth, Coke has been quite popular.
There are also quite a few brands in this world.
Among them, Crazy Coke is the most famous.
"Global level."
Yanhu was a little excited, and said, "It is also the highest level of endorsement, and the advertising will be placed in every country, which is a rare opportunity to expand international visibility." β
"How did you find me? Am I so famous abroad? β
Song Yu nodded and asked again.
After "The Matrix", although he is a little famous, he is not particularly much.
In the eyes of foreigners, the people of Daxia all look about the same.
Unless you come a few times, you may not be remembered.
"It's a collaborative endorsement."
Yanhu explained, "You will cooperate with the diva Sybil, who has been very popular in Aramco for the past two years. This diva wants to enter Great Xia, so she chooses you. β
"I see."
Song Yu didn't think there was anything.
Let's use each other.
And for him, the benefits are even more.
He also had the idea of entering the foreign music scene, and took this opportunity to get a foreign language album and test the water.
"You can promise it."
After thinking about it for a while, Song Yu returned the information to him.
"Go to Ami to record, and I'll call you then."
Yanhu reminded.
After he left, Song Yu began to think about foreign language albums.
In the evening.
Daxia Satellite TV's military-themed script competition officially closed, and the shortlist was announced immediately.
But because the author is not indicated, it does not cause much splash.
In fact, young people are not very interested in this kind of TV series.
In recent years, because it is too widespread, they have gathered a wave of fire on the Internet.
As a result, the review of the literary and artistic association on military-themed TV dramas has become more stringent.
But the situation is still not much better.
There are a few inferior products, and there are still no excellent works.
Tuesday.
The military-themed script contest has officially entered the second round.
The person in charge of this matter on Daxia Satellite TV is called Zeng Mo.
A very old gold medal screenwriter who has won many awards.
Under her organization, a total of 27 judges participated in the review.
All of them are professionals with a certain reputation in the industry.
For the sake of fairness, the script they got their hands did not indicate the author.
At the same time, each script is scored by at least three people.
In four days, if you want to get results, you have to work overtime.
Including Zeng Mo himself, he also had to participate in the review in order to save time.
Similarly, she did not know the author's name.
After three days of review, Zeng Mo wanted to strike a little.
The main thing is that the quality is not good.
There are a lot of scripts handed in, and the quality is uneven.
More precisely, most of them are not very good.
This is also the reason for the proliferation of military-themed TV dramas in the past two years.
Too many people want a piece of the pie.
According to the standard of a full score of 100 points, in the past three days, Zeng Mo thinks that there are only nine scripts that can reach 80 points.
Further down, it's unsightly.
"There are too many themes of the Anti-Japanese War."
The judges not far away sighed, and it quickly resonated.
"After all, it's a popular theme, and everyone loves to watch it."
"Fashion is fashion, but you can't ignore the facts, right? War dramas are about to turn into martial arts films, becoming more and more fantastical. β
"Not only that, I saw an anti-Japanese war TV series a few days ago, and I actually applied hairspray and smoked cigars, which is outrageous!"
"These screenwriters don't know if they haven't learned well, or if they did it on purpose."
Zeng Mo did not participate in the discussion.
She flipped to a script that piqued her interest.
The subject matter is the modern military.
This is really rare.
When she opened it with anticipation, she showed a surprised expression.
In recent years, military-themed TV series have almost become cool dramas.
The protagonists are invincible.
But Xu Sanduo, the protagonist of "Soldier Assault", is really ordinary at the beginning.
Not only ordinary, but also wooden.
After entering the barracks, he often made mistakes.
It's like other TV series, the protagonist is outrageous, and he dares to contradict his superiors and disobey orders.
Zeng Mo's interest became more and more intense.
She can predict what the plot will be, it is nothing more than Xu Sanduo's growth.
But how to grow is quite a test of the screenwriter's level.
If it is a sudden explosion, it is undoubtedly a clichΓ©.
The more Zeng Mo looked at it, the more surprised he became.
In front, Xu Sanduo can be said to have achieved nothing.
But his character, has already shown.
The effort is pure, do not give up and do not give up.
In the end, his persistence paid off.
In the Seventh Company of Steel, he won many honors.
Zeng Mo thought that Xu Sanduo would have smooth sailing in the future, but as a result, Gang Qilian suffered an adaptation, which made the protagonist's road bumpy again.
"Extraordinary script."
After she read it, she thought it was very fine.
This script is not just written about Xu Sanduo, it is more like a group portrait, describing the growth of different characters.
"There's no big scene, there's no invincibility, it's too real."
The more Zeng Mo looked at it, the more he liked it.
She thought about it, picked up the pen, and scored a perfect score.
This is her personal subjective score.
According to the rules, at least three people are scored, and the average score is taken.
She didn't know if others would like it, but she did, so she got a perfect score.
Zeng Mo transferred the script to the next screenwriter.
By the evening, the final score of "Soldier Assault" came out, ninety-seven points.
It is the highest to date.
Because the score was too high, the judges who did not participate in the scoring were surprised.
So everyone circulated it.
"This is definitely a veteran!"
"It's impossible for a new screenwriter to write such a high-quality script."
"I'm sorry to myself."
"Each character in the script has their own characteristics, and it's rare not to be a stepping stone to the protagonist, not a standout for the protagonist."
"One thing to say, Xu Sanduo really can't be called very good, he is just an ordinary person, but his character is very good."
"It's been a long time since I've seen a script like this."
Zeng Mo listened to everyone's discussion and nodded secretly.
At this time, she also wondered who had written it.
But alas, it wasn't until Friday that they couldn't find out.
Time passed quickly.
Zeng Mo finally solved the doubts in his heart.
Song Yu.
She looked at the name for a long time, speechless.
Before that, she thought that the author of "Soldier Assault" should have been in the army, a little older, and had a lot of experience.
But it was actually a twenty-one-year-old young man.
"Is there really a genius in this world?"
Not only did Zeng Mo feel outrageous, but others also felt outrageous.
After Zhang Yang, the production director of Daxia Satellite TV, saw that the winner was Song Yu, he almost thought that he was hallucinating.
The military theme is relatively special.
In general, few young people can write clearly.
Although Song Yu is famous, he writes about love, martial arts and science fiction.
This has nothing to do with the military.
Zhang Yang finished watching "Soldier Assault" with a skeptical attitude.
I have to say that these 97 points are indeed well deserved.
He used to be in the art troupe and knew more about the military camp.
And the description in "Soldier Assault" is almost the same, full of details, as if you have really been there.
But Zhang Yang knew that Song Yu had definitely not been there.
His life was very simple.
Before his debut, he worked as a trainee in his own company.
After his debut, he was busy writing songs and filming film and television dramas.
The barracks was a very distant place for him.
"It's a genius."
Zhang Yang became excited again in a flash.
He realized that this was a good thing, and a great good thing.
It's just a heat for nothing.
He immediately arranged for someone to announce the final results.
The originally mediocre military-themed script contest immediately attracted the attention of netizens.
"Song Yu? Is that the Song Yu I thought? β
"It can't be the same name, right? How can Brother Yu write about military themes? β
"Brother Yu writes about military themes, I'm afraid he wants to write a martial arts drama?"
"Don't say it, there are really anti-Japanese war martial arts dramas. The protagonists each use cold weapons and thieves. β
"Laughing to death, I've also seen a protagonist use a bow and arrow, which is faster and more accurate than a gun."
But when Song Yu forwarded this viewer and thanked Daxia Satellite TV for choosing his script, the content in the comment area suddenly changed greatly.
"My head is buzzing, it's really written by Brother Yu."
"Good fellows! I call out to the good guys! β
"Brother Yu, is there really no bottleneck in creation? Can you even write about military themes? β
"Daxia Satellite TV shouldn't mess around, right?"
"The eldest princess still has a reputation guarantee, and it can only be said that Brother Yu's script is of good quality."
After Song Yu forwarded it, he didn't care anymore.
But because of his fame, he is still on the hot search.
Some people are happy, some people are dissatisfied.
For example, Lu Peng, the ace screenwriter of Longteng Entertainment.
He is famous for his military themes.
He was very dissatisfied with the defeat this time.
Because he thinks his "Beacon" should win.
And not a hairy boy.
Originally, Longteng Entertainment didn't want to provoke Song Yu.
But under Lu Peng's output, he began to be yin and yang again.
And they really think it's unreasonable, thinking that Daxia Satellite TV reluctantly passed it because of Song Yu's relationship.
This public opinion was promoted by Longteng Entertainment, and it was supported by other unsuccessful screenwriters, and gradually grew.
Even though Daxia Satellite TV came out to issue a statement, there were still people who didn't believe it.
But it's impossible to make the script public, so it's stuck here.
Fortunately, Song Yu has many fans, and this public opinion has not expanded to the point of being out of control.
More than half of netizens still believe in Song Yu and Daxia Satellite TV.
The rest is estimated to have to wait until the finished product comes out to change the tone.
And Longteng Entertainment took this opportunity to announce the establishment of "Beacon" and started the ring again.
Song Yu didn't have time to pay attention.
He went to a scenic island in Aramco to shoot an advertisement.
"Hello Song, I'm Sybil."
The diva is very enthusiastic and wants a hug when she comes up.
After Song Yu refused, he shook hands instead.
"It's rare to see such a gentleman."
Sybil's reaction to him was rather unexpected.
When other men saw her, they not only hugged her, but also liked to have veneer gifts.
It can only be said that the culture is different.
"I've seen your movie, it's pretty cool."
Apparently an extrovert, Hipir asked, "Do you know kung fu?" Like in the movies? β
"A little." Song Yu said casually.
Standard impression of foreigners.
No way.
In fact, the content of this advertisement is also closely related to kung fu.
Probably the plot is that Sybil is the eldest lady of the family, she was attacked, Song Yu heroically saved the beauty, and when she was finished, she asked for a reward, so she said she wanted Coke.
Install the latest version. γ
In short, it's a story without logic.
What Song Yu has to do is fight and show gorgeous kung fu.
And it's similar to the action in "The Matrix", and it also uses bullet time shooting techniques.
Obviously, Crazy Coke rubbed off the heat.
Song Yu didn't refuse.
This kind of shooting will connect him with "The Matrix" and awaken people's memories.
After all, this movie is quite popular in Ami.
After a period of greetings, the commercial officially started filming.
Hibiel drove to the beach.
It was attacked by several strong men.
When the left and right were men, Song Yu appeared on the stage and beat them to the ground.
Hibir doesn't have any acting skills, but fortunately he doesn't need acting either.
Just be a nice vase.
At the end, Sybil takes out a bottle of Coke from the car as a reward.
Song Yu left in style.
Because of the single plot, it was only filmed for half a day.
At the end of the day, Hibir praised him for his great kung fu.
Song Yu didn't stay too long, and flew back to Daxia Binjiang City the next day.
Zhao Yan personally picked up the airport, and as soon as they met, she asked: "Is the queen of heaven Xibil good-looking?" β
"It's not a matter of whether she's good-looking or not."
Song Yu threw out a stalk with a smile and said, "It's that I'm blind, and foreigners are the same in my eyes." β
In fact, most foreigners really don't conform to the aesthetics of Great Xia.
The reverse is also true.
On our side, it's a handsome guy and a beautiful woman, but in the past, it's not necessarily.
Zhao Yan gave him a blank look.
Of course, she didn't believe that Song Yu was face blind.
But if you really want to be interested, you won't go yesterday and return today.
The two of them returned to Xingdong Entertainment together.
As soon as Song Yu arrived at the office, Yanhu reminded him to surf the Internet.
Crazy Coke officially announced him and Hibiel as global spokespersons.
It will be a while before the ad comes out, but the news caused a lot of earthquakes.
Crazy Coke is a big international brand.
So far, there have been a lot of spokespersons in Daxia, but this is the first time for a global spokesperson.
To be precise, it is the first time that there is a big summer star.
Song Yu's coffee position has been invisibly improved.
And fans have bragging capital.
It didn't take long for Song Yu to receive a notification from Crazy Coke.
It said that next Monday, there will be a global advertising campaign, which will last for a month.
It was also a wake-up call for him.
If you want to release a foreign language album, this time period is undoubtedly the best.
The first step he had to do was to sign up with an international brokerage firm.
Because Xingdong Entertainment has no foreign channels.
In fact, such operations are very common.
If foreign stars want to come in, they also have to sign a contract with Daxia's agency.
On the contrary, the same is true.
