Chapter 337: The Legend of the Condor Heroes novel is released

In the end, there were no major accidents in the Spring Festival film market. "Rise to Fame" got a box office of more than 700 million in the first seven days, and then began to have a weak follow-up.

Finally, it is estimated that it is the early billion results predicted by many media. And Xu Ji and Sha Yetong did not pay attention to these during the Spring Festival.

Had a good vacation. After all, because of the preparation for the Spring Festival Gala, I have been staying in the capital for nearly a month without rest.

...... Tongji Entertainment's annual leave is put on fifteen. However, it is said that after the seventh day of the new year, you have already returned to Rongcheng.

Because the later stage of "The Legend of the Withering Heroes" has been completed. So you need to prepare for the next broadcast.

Originally, it stands to reason that Mountain Studio is also going to take annual leave. But because there was only the last part left in the later stage of "The Legend of the Withering Heroes", he applied for overtime for Xu Ji during the Chinese New Year.

Xu Ji hesitated for a moment but agreed. Then I gave the mountain studio a long vacation after a year.

There is nothing that the employees are reluctant to do. After all, there is overtime pay for overtime during the Spring Festival, and there is a long holiday after the New Year.

This kind of treatment is basically unimaginable in some other companies. ...... At station G, Chi Jiang at this time also returned to the company after the seventh day of the new year.

Originally, it stands to reason that he doesn't take a holiday. But there's really nothing to do if you stay in the company. Tongji Entertainment's last drama "Parents' Love" has been on the air for a long time.

During this period, Station G did not introduce some other new dramas. At most, I bought the online copyright of "Infernal Affairs" after the release for Tongji Entertainment.

What Chi Jiang didn't expect was that when he came back, he received good news from You Man. Tongji Entertainment's new drama has been produced, and it will be directly broadcast online after the review.

Of course, Chi Jiang can't do anything without preparation, and he plans to start tailoring a publicity plan for him after watching this drama.

As the first drama of Station G this year, it must be well prepared in all aspects. However, when he heard the name and theme of this drama, Chi Jiang was stunned.

"Martial arts?"

"Seriously?" Chi Jiang didn't expect that Xu Ji's new drama would be a martial arts drama. He was quite happy when he heard that it was a big production.

I hope that it is best to have a drama comparable to Fairy Sword. As a result, when I saw the word martial arts, my heart suddenly cooled.

It's not that Chi Jiang is pessimistic, but because there is really no market for Chinese martial arts dramas now.

Especially pure martial arts dramas, which have not appeared for a long time. Martial arts is dead, it's not netizens talking nonsense.

Even if it is a drama of Xu Ji's company, Chi Jiang does not have great hopes. ......

"Mr. Chi, is the new drama on Tongji Entertainment's side really a martial arts theme?" The first meeting of the film and television department after the resumption of work in the new year was to discuss the promotion of the new drama.

At this time, a group leader couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm."

"I've already settled with them." Hearing Chi Jiang's words, some people actually still have some illusions.

"Could it be a martial arts drama with other elements?"

"For example, Xianxia?"

"Xu Ji is the founder of Xianxia dramas." Chi Jiang still shook his head.

"I've asked about this too."

"It's a pure martial arts drama."

"There are no other elements." Hearing Chi Jiang's words, the meeting fell into a rare silence.

"Mr. Chi, can we talk to Xu Ji and them, don't buy this drama?"

"What is the market for martial arts dramas, who doesn't know now?"

"No one dares to shoot it if it's already lost." Someone couldn't help but speak. Chi Jiang replied without the slightest hesitation: "No." ”

"No matter what, we still have to buy the copyright of this show."

"Don't forget that we have a cooperative relationship with Tongji Entertainment and signed a contract."

"And if you hear that a drama may be popular, you will buy it, and if it is not a popular drama, you will not want it directly, how can there be such cooperation?" After Chi Jiang's words, the others didn't have any opinions.

In the film and television department, these people are basically brought out by Chi Jiang. His decision is largely unquestionable.

In fact, Chi Jiang was also a little helpless. There are still some lovers of martial arts dramas, but the number is getting smaller and smaller for them in the past.

Such a number of people can't support the popularity and traffic of a drama at all. This is a reality that has to be faced.

And now the only possibility is that this martial arts drama of Tongji Entertainment can really change its life against the sky and change the status quo of the dead martial arts market.

Chi Jiang still has some expectations for this. After all, Xu Ji has created enough miracles.

"Okay, there's no need to discuss the drama anymore."

"Next, I will mainly talk about the promotion of this show." ...... On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, after Xu Ji and Sha Yetong ate Tang Xianshu and Chen Yabao's dumplings, they were ready to leave home and go back to work.

Now that most of the dramas in the next stage of Tongji Entertainment have been completed, it is estimated that it will take intensive script writing in the next period of time.

In addition, the planning of the variety show project that was prepared to be produced has also been put on for a long time, and it is time to start filming.

As for Sha Yetong, there were originally many invitations to perform at the gala during the Spring Festival. But because of the reason that he went home for the New Year with Xu Ji, he was pushed.

After going back this time, it is estimated that the schedule is also full. Xu Ji and the two arrived in Rongcheng when they received a call from You Man.

It's good to say that I have another day's rest. Promised to go to the studio the next day to find You Man. It's similar to what Xu Ji thought.

It's a matter of the script. Pang Er's "Rise to Fame" was only released during the Spring Festival, and it stands to reason that it should be a break for a while.

But the other party looked like a workaholic, and came directly to find Xu Ji and started to write the script. In addition, some of the company's other directors are also idle.

For example, directors like Yang Anran, who have not yet completed the later stage of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", have asked Xu Ji to help write the next script.

If you want the first part to be completed, you can shoot the second part directly and seamlessly. Xu Ji expressed his helplessness in this regard.

He didn't know why his company was full of workaholics.

"I learned from my boss." Sha Yetong told the truth in one sentence. In fact, Xu Ji is basically open all year round.

In addition to being a director and making movies, other times are also all kinds of busy.

"The Legend of the Withering Heroes has been reviewed."

"The original film resources have also been sent to station G, and if nothing else, it should be able to be broadcast online in March." ...... Although Xu Ji doesn't really care about these things, You Man still has to report to him every once in a while.

And Xu Ji only remembered at this time, he had always felt that something was missing before. At this time, I felt that as such a classic martial arts masterpiece, in addition to the drama, should the original book be released.

That's how the words come to be complete. Just do it. This is simpler for Xu Ji. After all, he had seen the original book, and it was completely as clear as a video in his memory.

It just needs to be typed. It's a lot easier than writing a screenplay. Just do it, Xu Ji wrote directly in You Man's office.

However, the whole book is close to 1.1 million words, and even if it is just a keyboard, it will take a long time. In the whole afternoon, Xu Ji typed out less than 100,000 words.

Later, I realized that this efficiency was too slow, and the next day I simply switched to voice input.

This efficiency is really much faster, if nothing else, it should be able to write the whole book before the TV series is broadcast.

......

"Publishers?"

"What the hell?" When You Man heard Xu Ji's words, he was also a little confused.

"I wrote about it recently." Xu Ji said truthfully. You Man was a little helpless, she originally thought that Xu Ji was writing a new script, but she didn't expect this guy to suddenly run to write it on a whim?

But I reluctantly agreed.

"I'll help you ask." Xu Ji then asked: "By the way, which is the most influential @Essence Shuge Station in China at present?" You Man: "I really haven't known about this, but Fengyun @ Essence Bookstore is more famous." Xu Ji: "Can you contact them?" You Man thought for a while: "It's no problem to contact that side." ”

"But you're trying to post it online?" Xu Ji nodded. The main reason is that the physical book industry is also sluggish now.

On the contrary, the influence on the Internet is even greater. ...... Shanghai, the headquarters of Fengyun @ Jingshuge.

Everyone else is busy, reviewing manuscripts and answering authors' questions. Screenwriter Feng Xia also looked very busy at this time.

But in fact, it's not pretending at all. As the editor of the martial arts channel, he doesn't have many drafts at all.

"I've read this manuscript almost three times."

"Why is it so long since the end of work?"

"I'll go and for a while and pass the time." He was muttering to himself, but he didn't even notice that the editor-in-chief was already standing behind him at this time.

"Editor-in-chief." Feng Xia suddenly turned around, and then was startled and shouted.

"Do you have time now?"

"Come with me." Feng Xia was stunned for a moment, and at the same time felt a little apprehensive in his heart. After all, his performance during this period was indeed a little poor.

But a cool screenwriter like martial arts is actually not at the bottom for a day or two. Don't talk to yourself all of a sudden.

You won't fire yourself, will you? Although the salary of this job is lower, I still get a basic salary every month.

But the work is indeed quite leisurely, and Feng Xia definitely doesn't want to change jobs.

"Editor-in-chief, is there anything you want me to do?" In the office, Feng Xia asked with some apprehension. However, the criticism he expected did not come, but the editor-in-chief suddenly asked: "Do you know Xu Ji?" This question made Feng Xia stunned for a moment.

"It's a singer... No, director, not right. ”

"Is that the star Xu Ji?" The editor-in-chief nodded.

"Tongji Entertainment suddenly contacted us Fengyun @ Essence Library."

"Said they wanted to work with us." Feng Xia was stunned for a moment. I even wonder if the editor-in-chief is wrong. Why did Xu Ji suddenly come to them to cooperate.

Although Fengyun @ Jingshuge is indeed the most influential website in China now. But in fact, compared with a super first-line star like Xu Ji, it can't be compared at all.

Moreover, Xu Ji is still the boss of the company, and the scale of Tongji Entertainment's company is not necessarily smaller than Fengyun @ Jingshuge.

......

"Editor-in-chief, you mean that Xu Ji plans to post it on our website?"

"Or a martial arts?" Feng Xia's face was incredible at this time.

"Well, I don't really understand why."

"But that's the case."

"The copyright does not belong to us, it is just published on our platform." ......

"I've agreed, and the contract has been signed and sent."

"I promised to give Xu Ji's platform the best recommended resources."

"Originally, I was going to give all the manuscript fees to Xu Ji, but Xu Ji asked for the whole book to be completely free."

"There's no need to mention that."

"The main reason for calling you here is that you will be the editor of Xu Ji next." Hearing the words of the editor-in-chief, Feng Xia asked a little strangely: "Then editor-in-chief, what are we doing this?" "There's no copyright, and then it's not free, and there's no money for subscriptions.

As a result, it also directly gave the website the best promotional resources. It's just confusing. But the editor-in-chief just glanced at him with idiotic eyes.

Then he explained: "How can we not try anything. ”

"Don't you know Xu Ji's current popularity?"

"It's just out of the limelight in this year's Spring Festival Gala."

"If the news that Xu Ji wrote here spreads, he will definitely be able to rush to the top of the hot search."

"Have you thought about how much traffic it will bring to our website then?"

"It doesn't matter what kind of traces are written, and it doesn't matter to us."

"It's enough to have a few names among the authors of our site." ...... In fact, the editor-in-chief didn't say that he didn't think Xu Ji could write anything.

And it's still martial arts, even if it's a paid model, although the results are higher than the average by relying on fame. But that's about it.

After all, Xu Ji writes about martial arts, how cool this thing is, and he, the editor-in-chief of @Essence Shuge Station, knows best.

As for the issue of copyright, he didn't think about it. Thinking about it, I also know that it is impossible to give Xu Ji. After all, the other party's own company has enough strength in film and television.

All in all, this time is actually a pie-in-the-sky affair for Fengyun @ Essence Library.

It is equivalent to getting a large wave of free publicity traffic directly from Xu Ji. ...... The next day, Fengyun @ Jingshuge directly put Xu Ji's name on the homepage of his website.

Even on Weite's official account, a number of content promotions have been posted.

"Well-known singer, songwriter, director, screenwriter Xu Ji, the first feature will be released soon@Jingshuge, so stay tuned!" As predicted on the website, not long after the news was revealed, it was directly on Weite's hot search.

This news is indeed too eye-catching. Everyone knows Xu Ji's name, but it is the first time that it is suddenly associated with writing.

"What's the situation, it's true or false? Xu Ji started writing? ”

"I was also stunned, and I thought I was wrong, but I didn't expect it to be Xu Ji."

"It should be true, Fengyun @ Essence Shuge has directly promoted it on the homepage, saying that it will be released tomorrow, or is it a martial arts theme?"

"What the hell? Martial arts? ”
