You are a star, why do you have all the skills from the underworld?

Chapter 289 Give Tomato Station a little shock

With such an episode, this road show gained a lot of popularity.

For a week in a row, Xu Yi was running around outside.

After finishing the road show and the creative team was preparing to fly to some programs to be guests, Xu Yi quickly asked for leave. Anyway, there is still more than a month left before the Lunar New Year holiday, so why be anxious.

Moreover, when a movie with this new theme is released, it is useless to rely on publicity alone.

Still have to wait for those tap water.

Xu Yi returned directly to the capital to finalize specific employment matters with Guo Fan.

As for this year's rookie season, Xu Yi didn't pay attention, and he didn't let Yao Meng participate in this rookie season. With Yao Meng's current popularity in the music industry, there is no need for a rookie season to subsidize himself.

Even if Yao Meng participates in the rookie season rankings, it will bring popularity to the rookie season.

"The company is still in the initial stage, and offices are being looked for. You can sit wherever you want." Xu Yi introduced Guo Fan in the courtyard.

Xu Yi Studio’s office in Beijing has always been the Siheyuan.

And of course there's a recording studio.

Apart from that, there is no decent office space.

Guo Fan was dubious:

There is a difference between the grassroots stage and the grassroots team!
But looking at it like this, you can afford to buy a courtyard house, so you shouldn't be a grassroots team, right?

Just sitting down with hesitation, Guo Fan quickly turned the topic to the notebook written by Xu Yi. "Mr. Xu, is there any sequel to the script you sent me last time?"

"All these ideas in it were all thought up by you yourself?"

Hearing Guo Fan's question, Xu Yi smiled and said: "Director Guo, you really don't trust me! Why, can't I have some ideas?"

"No, no, it's not this."

Guo Fan quickly explained: "The main thing is that you are a big star! You are also a musician and you have done so many variety shows. How...how do you have time to create science fiction?"

Creation requires an absolute cost of time.

This is not something you can just pile up if you have money. You must have your own time to settle down before you can put these wild ideas on paper.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible for those capitals to make whatever movie they want and spend money on it?
Guo Fan's question had been asked by Xu Yi before.

Just listen to Xu Yi smile and say:
"Time is like water in a sponge, there is always some squeeze."

"We always make excuses and say we don't have time, but we have time to watch TV shows, eat barbecue, play games, and go shopping. If these time are spread out a little bit, we can actually do a lot of things."

Guo Fan looked at Xu Yi with a very different look:

Successful people are really hard on themselves.

There are only 24 hours in a day. No matter how crowded we are, can we still squeeze in 25 hours?

This is simply impossible.

So, that is to say, Xu Yi spent 24 hours of his 48 hours with a sense of déjà vu!

"Mr. Xu, I finally know now that there is a reason why you are so young and so successful." Guo Fan said sincerely: "I am very sure about joining your company. It doesn't matter even if there is no office space. I believe that we can It will definitely make a great movie!”

Xu Yi: "I believe it too."

In its previous life, this science fiction movie was known as the "ceiling of domestic science fiction movies" and completely opened up the market for movies with this theme in one fell swoop.

Of course, another movie that followed under the banner of science fiction closed the door again. However, this will not happen in this world.

Fat Orange came over quickly to help with the onboarding process.

in the afternoon.

Xu Yi and Guo Fan had an in-depth discussion about the preparations for this science fiction film, especially about the visual presentation of planetary engines and space ladders. Xu Yi talked about the 'conception' in his mind, which made Guo Fan listen. Later, he was shocked to the heavens.

"Mr. Xu, your sense of painting is really amazing!"

"Oh, I'll just talk about it casually." Xu Yi said very modestly: "The specific shooting and presentation still have to be up to you. However, when you draw the special effects drawings, you can show them to me."

Guo Fandang assured:

"That is required."

"I have to show it to you. If you don't nod, I don't think this thing can be done reliably."

Guo Fan is full of energy and can't wait to start filming immediately.

However, the project of "The Wandering Earth" has not yet been approved, and Xu Yi is not in a hurry. He asked Guo Fan to spend two months to find a screenwriter to polish the script. It must be more than 90% complete before he can prepare the crew.

Two months later, it's a new year.

This is also in line with Xu Yi's expectations.

After the New Year, "Wolf Warrior" will be put on the agenda and we will directly enter the work of casting, location selection and filming. According to Xu Yi and Lin Chaoxian's estimates, the film will take at least half a year to shoot, and including post-production, it may not be able to make it in time for next year's Lunar New Year.

Xu Yi said at that time:
It doesn’t matter if you can’t make it for the Lunar New Year stall, then just make it for the National Day stall.

There are many schedules, so don’t rush.

The most important thing is to make the movie well, at least above the standard.

After getting rid of Guo Fan, Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. The opportunity to show his talents in the film industry is slowly maturing. Xu Yi is not good at making comedies, but military themes and science fiction themes are two fields where it is difficult for others to compete with him.

Just as he stretched, his phone rang again.

Xu Yi squinted his eyes and took a look. It was a call from Yan Zhongwen.

"Damn, I forgot about this." Xu Yi patted his head and answered the phone with a smile: "Hello, Director Yan."
-
"Xiao Xu, how have you considered this matter?"

"Sorry, Director Yan, I should have replied to you earlier. Mainly because I happened to be busy outside every day these days, so I forgot about it all of a sudden."
-
"I know, I know. Your new movie will be released soon! Then, I will ask my colleagues in the station to book the theater to watch it."

When Xu Yi heard this, although he knew that Yan Zhongwen was trying to win over him, he was somewhat moved in his heart. He said quickly:
"Director Yan, you must not do this."

"If the movie is good, people will buy tickets to see it. If the movie is not good, if you book the show, people will still scold me."

Yan Zhongwen didn't think this was a big deal.

Whether a movie is good or not depends on many factors. The director, screenwriter, post-production, performance of the same actors, etc., can all lead to a movie becoming a bad movie.

He was still waiting for Xu Yi's next words.

Just listen to Xu Yi's solemn words:

"Director Yan, I also communicated with the company about the matter we talked about last time after I came back. What we meant was to try the second method of cooperation first."
-
"Really? So, you are joining our Tomato TV?"

"It can also be understood this way..."

Xu Yi can't say he didn't join, right?

Even if you are co-creating a program with Tomato Channel as a consultant, you are still half a Tomato TV person. This is undeniable.

Yan Zhongwen immediately said:
"Okay! I will report the news to the station director right now." "By the way, Xiao Xu, our station has a large budget next year to support a brand new variety show. I hope that this show will be developed by us." Created!”

Xu Yi took the conversation naturally and said:
"No problem, it doesn't matter."

Isn't it just a variety show? If you want to be more popular than The Voice... it's not completely hopeless.

Are you going to continue doing music variety shows?
Or create a lifestyle variety show?

Xu Yi decided to think about it carefully. Although he had a few bombs in his hand, he didn't want to throw them all on the card table at once. This was not the way to play cards. A true poker player will never let anyone see his cards.

He habitually picked up a gel pen and wrote a few lines on the paper.

I love to memorize lyrics

Extreme challenge
Longing for life

After finishing writing, Xu Yi thought about these three lines for a long time, and then crossed out the next two lines.

Forget it, let's throw four threes out and blow them up first. If Director Yan is not satisfied, take out the king bombs.

In fact, when it comes to music variety shows in previous lives, "I Love Memorizing Lyrics" is definitely a topic that cannot be avoided. How popular was this program back then? It was a variety show that involved men, women, old and young. It was absolutely rare for the whole family to sit in front of the TV and watch it with gusto without grabbing the remote control.

For example, in the later period, I am a singer, The Masked Singer, etc. were also very popular.

But the target audience is smaller than the program "I Love Memorizing Lyrics".

This is a music program that is popular among non-professionals and ordinary people. Many of the contestants are amateurs. Because of this, its sense of immersion is far ahead.

Xu Yi simply wrote down the format, flow, and attractive points of the program, then stuffed the piece of paper into a bookcase, and waited until spring started to give the Tomato Channel a little shock.

Time flies slowly towards the end of the year.

Unconsciously, it has been almost two years since Xu Yi came to this world.

In two years, he suddenly rose to prominence in the entertainment industry and firmly established his position. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, overall, it was smooth sailing for Xu Yi.

Another wonderful weekend.

Xu Yi was lying in his courtyard, feeling the warmth of the winter sun, and was planning in his heart that he would prepare some gifts for some elder friends at the end of the year. At this time, the phone rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was a message sent to him by Chu Ningning.

[Do you have time on the weekend? Lao Chu asked you to come to my house for a meal. 】

After all, Chu Zhengchen hadn't called Xu Yi to eat for a while. Naturally, Xu Yi couldn't take the initiative to take advantage of the situation, as he was afraid of being cheated.

Xu Yi thought for a while and sent a message back:
【Just eating, right? 】
-
【if not? 】

[Okay, I'll be there as soon as possible. 】

The New Year is coming soon, and Xu Yi originally planned to visit the homes of senior friends such as Zhong Guoliang, Chu Zhengchen, and Director Wang. He is not a fool, so he naturally knows that these people may not be needed at ordinary times, but in critical moments, they may be able to save lives.

Chu Zhengchen likes calligraphy, so he may not be happy to give him cigarettes and wine.

Then send me a calligraphy work!

Although Xu Yi had written a calligraphy painting at the calligraphy old friends meeting in East Lake Park before, it was snatched away by Chu Zhengchen. But after all, that was not considered as a formal gift. It was nothing to come to Chu Zhengchen's door again and again to send a piece of calligraphy to Chu Zhengchen.

Xu Yi thought for a while, then immediately picked up a pen in the study and wrote six words.

Then go out.

The guard at the entrance of Xishan Villa seemed to already know Xu Yi. He knew that Xu Yi was a frequent visitor to Chu Zhengchen's house. Although he didn't come frequently, he basically met him once a month, so he didn't embarrass Xu Yi. After a simple identity check, they will be released.

"Uncle Chu...ah, it's Director Chu!"

It was Chu Ningning who opened the door.

Xu Yi smiled and handed over the scroll in his hand, and then said: "I don't know what to bring here, so I just wrote a word."

Chu Ningning said calmly: "You are quite good at saving money."

At this time, Chu Zhengchen also poked his head out of the kitchen door, saw Xu Yi, and said with a smile:
"Xiao Xu is here?"

"Come in and sit down, Ning Ning, go make some tea."

"Hey, come on. Why did you bring something? Is it a calligraphy painting? Wait for me to wipe my hands and I'll take a look."

Chu Zhengchen was overjoyed when he heard that Xu Yi had written a calligraphy for him.

This gift is much better than those coquettish bitches who give you cigarettes and wine.

Chu Ningning handed the scroll to Lao Chu, and Chu Zhengchen couldn't wait to open it, and then saw the six big characters:
The ambition of not falling into the clouds!

It's a bit interesting. This sentence seems like Xu Yi is encouraging himself, and it also seems like he is telling Chu Zhengchen that although you are no longer young, don't lose the ambition of your youth!

Chu Zhengchen thought about this carefully, and the more he chewed it, the more delicious it became.

He couldn't help but give Xu Yi a thumbs up:
"Xiao Xu, you write this calligraphy well! You write this sentence well too!"

"It's not in vain that I invite you to dinner. This meal is so worth it."

Xu Yi responded modestly: "I took advantage of Uncle Chu. A few words are not worth it."

Chu Zhengchen knew very well how valuable Xu Yi's words were.

For the six words I am holding in my hand now, if I take them out and someone else offers them at least one million, it will only be more, not less.

However, he didn't want to move forward.

I saw Chu Zhengchen put away the scrolls happily, and then changed the subject and said with concern: "I heard Ning Ning say that you had some conflicts with the main station before, has the storm subsided now?"

This matter actually alarmed Lao Chu?

Xu Yi immediately explained:

"It's settled, it's settled."

"It's not a big deal, just a copyright dispute. Later, the China Media Group admitted it and returned all the copyright fees to me... Wait a minute!"

Speaking of this, Xu Yi suddenly thought of something.

Before, when the general typhoon changed direction suddenly, not only did he not block himself, but he also had a very good attitude. He also made a public statement to the entire network, almost completely bowing his head. Liu Guoping approached him about this matter and asked him what his relationship was with him. He directly connected to the antenna!

Xu Yi was very confused at that time. He thought about it for a long time, but he didn't even think of who it could be.

Now seeing Chu Zhengchen and Chu Ningning, he suddenly remembered that Chu Ningning seemed to work at the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television seems to have the right professional counterpart to put pressure on the broadcaster.

It seems like...

"Director Chu, at that time I was in a lawsuit with the headquarters, and the situation was at loggerheads. The headquarters even spread rumors that they wanted to ban me. Then in one day, the receptionist's attitude changed drastically. Did you help? "(End of chapter)
