Chapter 459: What the hell is a der!

Behind the desk in the office of the Tongchen Society, with a crackling keyboard sound, the script of "My Leader, My Group" quickly took shape under the stacking of paragraphs of text.

Li Youzhi has carried a lot of scripts from that world in his memory, but the current "Regiment Leader" can be said to be the smoothest one he has carried.

After all, he is too familiar with this drama!

This drama was originally a war drama filmed by director Kang Honglei in 2009, but it was not the director who really injected the soul into this drama, but the screenwriter Lan Xiaolong.

That's right, it's the 249 that wrote "Soldier Assault".

The reason why I am deeply impressed by this drama is because during the filming of this drama, three crew members were injured due to a pyrotechnic group accident, one of whom died, and then a serious accident occurred that caused more than 30 people to be accidentally injured.

Because of this regret, screenwriter Lan Xiaolong later compiled the content of the script into the same name and published it.

But even so, this imperfect war drama also had a great impact on Li Youzhi, who later inadvertently discovered this drama.

The drama "Regiment Leader" is a proper group drama, unlike a battle or a victory that was mainly highlighted in previous anti-Japanese war dramas, it tells the ...... It's a man who struggles in the war!

Among these people, there are young intellectuals who have lost their ideals at a young age and hid their hopes and are bent on rotten. There is a lost dragon who has lost everything under the iron hooves of the invaders and still remains optimistic and simple.

There is a good veterinarian who wants to save people but can't save even one person in order to find his son who was captured and infiltrated into the army, and there is a good veterinarian who wants to avenge his father who was killed by the devil soldiers, and as an honors major in the officer training regiment, he has never fought......

And, the demon regiment leader Long Wenwen, who has experienced too many defeats, watched the loss of his family and country, and finally relied on the abduction and deception of the pit to pretend to be a ghost and pull up a cannon fodder regiment, just wanting to make things the way they should be.

Under Lan Xiaolong's script and Kang Honglei's director, each of these characters in the play has been portrayed very vividly, and each character can even make people find their own shadow.

On the surface, this is a war drama, but in Li Youzhi's view, this drama is more about how people deal with difficulties and even desperate situations!

It's about conscience, it's about right and wrong, it's about hope and faith!

Before he came to this world, Li Youzhi would watch this drama almost once a year, and even if something unpleasant happened in life, he would turn over the book of the same name of this drama.

Every time I watch it, I can see something new from the play and gain strength.

It is precisely because of such attributes that the drama "The Leader" has quite high audience stickiness in Li Youzhi's memory.

With only one-fifth of the plot filmed, it has gained millions of loyal fans in the ten years since its release, and has become the god of war movies in the minds of countless audiences!

When he saw the outrageous suggestion put forward by Leziren netizens, Li Youzhi's first thought was "Bright Sword" and this "Regiment Leader".

Like this drama, "Bright Sword" is actually an unfinished drama.

But compared with the second half of "The Leader", which could not be filmed due to financial problems caused by accidents, "Bright Sword" was not too good at all because it involved the relationship of a special era, so the real ending was not too easy to review.

Now that he has this ability, Li Youzhi decided to engage in "Regiment Leader" after some weighing!

In the office, with Li Youzhi's ten fingers flying, the script of "The Captain" was quickly completed.

After completing the copyright registration, Li Youzhi sent the script to Liu Xiuyi.

Looking at the OK gesture sent by Liu Xiuyi in the WeChat chat interface, Li Youzhi silently opened the mobile phone address book and dialed Liu Yun's phone number.

Thinking of the two accidents that happened in the original work in my memory, I still felt a little pressured to shoot Li Youzhi this time.

Regarding his character and strength, although Li Youzhi occasionally swells, he maintains absolute sobriety most of the time.

Brother Zhi is good at the use of lenses and the ability to tell stories, but a drama with a relatively large crew like "The Leader" is more about overall planning and scheduling in addition to the technical level.

So someone has to come over to help him, and Liu Yun, who has been filming spy war and anti-Japanese war films for 20 years, is undoubtedly the most suitable assistant director.

A short time after the call was dialed, it was connected.

"Hey, you kid finally remembered me? Good guy, I thought you would be out of the five elements after you became Mr. 10 billion box office. ”

"Dear" and "The Wandering Earth" have two dramas in a row, not only making Li Youzhi earn a lot of money alone, as the director of "Dear", one of the producers of "The Wandering Earth" and one of the investors, Liu Yun has also been a batch of waves recently.

not only participated in the variety show of CCTV's "Director Collection", but also served as the vice chairman of the jury at the just-concluded Beijing University Student Film Festival.

Hearing Liu Yun's greeting full of resentment on the other side of the phone, Li Youzhi sighed;

"Brother Liu, look at what you said, haven't I been watching you busy lately. This is participating in a variety show, and being a judge at the college student film festival, every time I want to call you to say hello, I think that you may be maintaining new friends over there, and I am afraid of delaying your relationship......"

On the other end of the phone, hearing that Li Youzhi's tea smell was about to overflow the phone, Liu Yun, who wanted to make fun of Li Youzhi, was speechless.

"Okay, okay, just say something!"

"I want to do an anti-Japanese war drama here, but I lack an assistant director. Brother Liu, have you had time lately? ”

"Anti-Japanese war drama, you?"

Faced with Li Youzhi's invitation, Liu Yun was surprised.

"No, the Anti-Japanese War drama is a special subsistence theme in my impression, you kid is now hanging two works at the box office, are you doing this?"

Hearing Liu Yun's incomprehension when she saw her 195CM new boyfriend Ding Ding was only 2CM, Li Youzhi smacked his lips.

"Brother Liu, just say if you have time."

"There is time, but the two themes of the Anti-Japanese War and spy war, I am really tired of filming. Is your script out? You send it to me and I'll take a look. ”

Feeling Liu Yun's resistance, Li Youzhi smiled secretly and hung up the phone.

casually sent the script of "The Leader" over.

Twelve minutes later.

Beep!

Receive amazing values from Liu Yun, 32 points, 32 points, 32 points!

Drip!

[Qiangsheng Film and Television] Liu Yun: The assistant director is not good, at least you have to give me a producer!

Hearing a series of system prompts next to his ears, and seeing the message sent by Liu Yun, Li Youzhi stood up from behind his desk, stretched his waist, and pushed open the door of the president's office.

Seeing that Liu Meng and Zhou Yuan, who had graduated for almost two years and still liked to watch movies and fight landlords in the activity room of Tongchen Club, he said "oi".

"Brother Zhi, what's the situation?"

Glancing at the guy with a face full of notes carrying playing cards, Li Youzhi waved his hand.

"Stop playing, let's get to work. Susu's video platform is under development, and we have to hurry up to make the first drama released on the platform. I have already completed the script, co-produced with China Film, and director Liu Yun has been confirmed to participate as the producer. Because it is the theme of the expeditionary force, this time I may have to go to Yunnan and Burma to shoot. A few of you will inform the company and the classmates of the Tongchen Club and prepare for a long trip. ”

Hearing Li Youzhi's arrangement, Zhou Yuan suddenly became energetic.

Although the "Nezha" project that I just started is interesting, this kind of anime movie actually has no sense of participation, and as soon as I heard that I was going to shoot a war-themed TV series, several guys immediately became interested.

"There's no problem with Heguang Culture, after the filming of "Nezha", these bastards are about to open the roof of the dormitory every day, and they have been complained by the unit next door several times to disturb the people."

"Brother Zhi...... It may not be easy to say on the side of the Tongchen Society. It's going to be a holiday in February, and the students have to go home for the New Year during the winter vacation......"

Looking at Zhou Yuan's embarrassed face, Li Youzhi shook his head helplessly.

Rebel son,

After following Brother Zhi for so long, I'm afraid that there will be tens of thousands of screams from my father-in-law, and you haven't learned Brother Zhi's things at all!

It's nothing, you have to come by Brother Zhi himself!

Glancing at Zhou Yuan, Li Youzhi silently took out his mobile phone and opened the QQ group of Agricultural University.

[The latest work of Heguang Culture has been approved, and the crew and group performance are now indicated. You need to go to the Yunnan-Myanmar border to shoot exterior locations, and the accommodation and travel expenses are all included. Important, most important! You can open an internship certificate and stamp the state-owned enterprise seal of China Film Group. The number of places is limited, and the registration is subject to the order of registration. Registration location: Activity room of Shaw Building, Agricultural University Dust Society. 】

At about six o'clock in the afternoon, as Li Youzhi's announcement was sent, the QQ group of 5,000 people in Agricultural University ...... Exploded!

Thundered......

Seeing that Li Youzhi's mobile phone rang into a message prompt of popping beans, and then hearing a burst of footsteps like thousands of troops coming from outside Shaw Building, Liu Meng and Zhou Yuan silently raised their thumbs.

"Father-in-law, Sao...... Ah no, high! ”

Glancing at a few professional rebels, Li Youzhi waved his hand like a fly.

Handed over the registration to the three rebels, picked up their laptops, and walked towards the dormitory.

……

In the next two weeks, Li Youzhi, who had been working as an animation director for more than three months, was busy again.

Together with Liu Yun, who rushed to Rongdian, he saved up the crew, and asked the Heguang Culture and Tongchen Society Service Team to start preparing the costumes and props needed for filming.

After the crew's affairs were completed, they began to finalize the cast according to the list provided by China Film.

In fact, the actor can also be selected here, but the co-actors on the side of China Film are stronger, basically from the national team, like "The Leader", although the actors on the side of China Film are a little more expensive, but Li Youzhi still feels that this money cannot be saved.

After some deliberation, the cast was finalized, and seeing that there were less than two weeks left before the Chinese New Year, Li Youzhi hurriedly rushed to Yunnan with Liu Yun with a large army.

Number two.

Three kilometers southeast of Tengchong County, in Heshun Ancient Town, there is a local restaurant called "Heshun People".

"Mr. Liu, hello, hello, I am looking forward to the stars and the moon, and I finally look forward to you!"

"Oh, hello Xiaozhi, you're welcome!"

At the door of the hotel, looking at Liu Xiuyi, who personally led the team, and the more than 20 "Captain" actors behind him who had been selected according to the information, the corners of Li Youzhi's mouth directly grinned at the root of his ears.

Most of these actors cooperated with China Film are from military arts or Mandarin, and they are proper national team players.

But qualifications are not the most important thing, the important thing is that it took Li Youzhi a whole week to pick out more than 20 professional actors from tons of materials.

On what basis did you pick it out?

The character characteristics in "The Leader" in my memory!

Nodding to the actors behind Liu Xiuyi who were looking at him, Li Youzhi hurriedly welcomed everyone into the hotel.

Inside the hotel's big bag.

"Xiaozhi, has the film and television support fund been approved?"

Just sat down, and heard Liu Xiuyi ask about this, Li Youzhi nodded with a smile while motioning for the waiter to serve the food.

"The venue and the set have already spent more than eight million, haha."

"Oh, either young people are doing things, or they are motivated."

Taking the rice wine poured by Li Youzhi with both hands, Liu Xiuyi smiled:

"What do you mean, you are going to officially start filming a year ago?"

Facing Liu Xiuyi's inquiry, Li Youzhi, who was holding the wine bottle, nodded.

"Yes, we plan to cooperate deeply with the online video platform for the film "The Leader", so we want to catch up with the Spring Festival holiday and premiere it on the platform to attract traffic to the platform. According to my thoughts, there are still fifteen days left for the Chinese New Year, so I will take advantage of this time to shoot the content of the first five episodes of the film and hand it over to the platform for promotion and premiere. ”

"Oh~ so."

Hearing Li Youzhi's shooting plan, Liu Xiuyi nodded deeply.

In the past two years, with the shrinking of TV ratings, it is not uncommon for film and television dramas to go directly to online video platforms without going to TV stations.

In the past, when a film was made, local TV stations offered hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars for an episode, and the first broadcast of forty or fifty episodes of TV dramas could be sold to pay for itself. However, now the online platform has a higher payment income, and the publicity and drainage effect is more direct, which can be regarded as the general trend.

"On which platform is it played? When the time comes, do you need our Zhongying to cooperate with the publicity? ”

Hearing Liu Xiuyi say this, Li Youzhi showed a little shyness.

"In ......"

Dididi,

Before Li Youzhi could answer, several mobile phones on the table made a noise.

Liu Xiuyi's side, born in Mandarin, and Yuan Zhongwei, who has created many popular roles in CCTV dramas with his climactic acting skills in the past two years, picked up his mobile phone.

Seeing the hot search on Weibo on the screen, he said "yo".

"Yo, Weibo is so lively today, what's wrong with Ai Yi Video? It's on the hot search list. ”

Looking at Liu Xiuyi, looking at this middle-aged actor who looked like Duan Yihong in his memory, Li Youzhi grinned shyly.

Hearing Yuan Zhongwei's muttering, belonging to the Shaanxi Drama Theater on the side, the fifty-six-year-old Luo Jinmin stroked his reading glasses and smiled.

"I saw it when I came, saying that it was the latest version of Aiyi's client update last night, which optimized the advertising method. In the past, the opening ad was like 60 seconds, and if you switch to other software, these 60 seconds are timeless.

But now that it's updated, if you don't finish watching the 60-second ad and switch to another program, he'll just pause it for you and wait for you to come back and watch it again. This is not the end, some advertisements are still new, that is, as soon as you move the phone, it will directly open the advertising link for you, what is it called...... What a shake up advertising. No, netizens have made a fuss. ”

"Well, I've heard about that, too."

As soon as Luo Jinmin's voice fell, Zhang Guoqiang of the Longjiang Drama Art Troupe next to him was happy.

"It seems that it is said that a netizen took an unfinished video software to Aiyi's Weibo to make trouble, saying that the video platform has a low membership fee, and the developer promised never to join the advertisement."

Dididi,

While everyone was chatting, several mobile phones on the table suddenly rang again.

"Yo, Ai Yi's CEO Gong Yu shouted on Weibo."

"Take a look."

Looking at Luo Jinmin, who was wearing reading glasses, cutting melons, the people on the side urged a few words.

Urged by everyone, Luo Jinmin clicked on the video that had just climbed the hot search.

"First of all, I am very sorry that the new version of Aiyi's advertising promotion method has caused dissatisfaction with users, and as the CEO of Aiyi Video. As you know, the development of online video platforms is not easy.

Take our Ai Yi as an example; In order to provide the best quality content services for netizen audiences, it has been operating at a loss for more than ten years since its establishment in 10 years. At present, the operation and maintenance drainage costs of online video platforms are high, and the cost of content copyright is large, so it is an inevitable trend to strengthen advertising revenue.

I have read some of the comments on the Internet, and we have carefully accepted the complaints of users, and are looking for a more secure solution. However, for some online rhythms, we reserve the right to use legal means to protect our rights and interests.

Especially for a well-known artist who instigated fans to maliciously hype up the eyeballs, as the operator of the video platform, I want to say that a large part of the reason why our operation and maintenance costs are so high is because the broadcast copyright fees of film and television works are seriously inflated.

It's like a work that the artist is broadcasting on my platform, with a copyright fee of nearly 60 million. With the 60 million copyright fee, he turned around and incited fans to stigmatize the platform, and the style of picking up the bowl to eat and putting down the bowl to scold the mother is chilling.

Then there is the video software developed by the artist in order to win attention, which is completely fantastical from a commercial point of view. Here, I would like to inform this person that if he continues to infringe on the rights and interests of Ai Yi Video for hype, our company will investigate to the end! ”

On the dinner table.

Looking at the condemnation of Gong Yuyizheng, who doesn't often appear in the video, a group of actors and Liu Xiuyi at the table couldn't help but smack their lips.

"Tsk, who is this Gong Yu talking about? Now that he is engaged in a video platform, he is still on the same page as Ai Yi, which accounts for fifty percent of the market share, isn't this looking for death. ”

"This Ai Yi's advertisement is really annoying, but at present, when the domestic video platform, that is, Ai Yi and Xunteng, the former leader like Youku has gone downhill under the competition of these two. He just said that the video platform founded by the artist, right? Who is it? I haven't heard of any actor running a platform......"

Looking at the people at the table who were puzzled, Liu Xiuyi also echoed and turned his head to look at Li Youzhi.

"Xiaozhi, you are young, and you have a lot of fun on the Internet, have you heard any news?"

"Ahh

In the face of Liu Xiuyi's inquiry, holding a bottle of drink and sipping it through a straw, Li Youzhi, who had been pretending to be dead for a long time, twisted his body shyly.

"Yes, I know."

"Talk, talk!"

"The video platform he said is called Heguang Audiovisual, the movie that bought nearly 60 million copyrights is called "The Wandering Earth", and the ...... who picked up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl and scolded the mother."

Facing everyone's gradually solidifying smiles, Li Youzhi grinned and pointed to the tip of his nose.

"It's just down there."

()()()()

Looking at his shy and squirming face, the box ...... fell silent.

After more than ten seconds, Liu Xiuyi, who had already oozed a layer of sweat beads on his forehead, moved his neck stiffly and coughed lightly.

"That...... This drama "The Leader", you don't just want to play it on your new platform and attract traffic to this video platform, right? ”

"That's right."

Seeing Li Youzhi nodding, Liu Xiuyi took a deep breath.

Inexplicably, a kind of college goddess called herself late at night to ask herself to go to the hotel, and she happily took a taxi to arrive, but was told by the goddess to open a room with others and forgot to bring her wallet to let herself come over to pay for the room.

For a moment, he only felt that his ears and mouth slowly changed into the shape of a donkey.

Is this what is called the premiere of the big platform?

Is this called New Year's drainage?

This special software has not yet been launched, it has been targeted by the market leader Ai Yi, and he is still playing a der!

looked at Li Youzhi, who was a little embarrassed next to him, and Liu Xiuyi, who wanted to make a joint production and use Li Youzhi's current high popularity to brush himself up with a wave of political achievements, exploded!

ps: I didn't write the plot point in this chapter last night, and I still have it today.
