Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 9 A Serious Supporting Role

In the eyes of Zheng Shirong and Dong Li, Shen Yan has a bit of the courage and bravery of a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger...

Well, actually it’s the feeling of loving someone and not caring about them…

That’s not quite right, Shen Yan is still very polite.

I'm not impressed by him, but I still have a good impression of him.

Zheng Shirong flipped through the script and said, "I'll give it to you as the younger brother of the heroine in the "Good Wife" unit!"

Shen Yan immediately said: "...Thank you Director Zheng..."

Dong Li interrupted: "Have you read The Complete Biography of Ji Gong?"

"I saw a little..."

"Haven't you finished reading it yet?"

Shen Yan scratched his head: "It's too long, I just skimmed through it, and the ones that left the deepest impression on me are "Flying Peak", "Cricket Fighting", "Eight Demons Refining Ji Dian"..."

"Here, this is the script...you can go back first."

"Ah."

He took the script, bowed in thanks, and left the office.

Shen Yan glanced through the script...

When we talk about the script, we are actually talking about the script outline.

As for "The Good Wife", it definitely perfectly fits the three elements of ancient costume dramas: a mean mother-in-law, a foolishly filial husband, a virtuous wife, and finally a sudden realization...

This type of story basically continues the plot of "The Peacock Flies Southeast"...

"The Peacock Flies Southeast," according to the reading comprehension, tells the story of the forced separation and mutual suicide of Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi. It denounces the cruelty and ruthlessness of feudal ethics and celebrates the sincere love and rebellious spirit of the Jiao-Liu couple...

In fact, the story is very simple. Jiao's mother forced Jiao Zhongqing to divorce his wife Liu Lanzhi, and then Jiao Zhongqing agreed.
Ancient Chinese Confucianism advocated filial piety, and foolish filial piety was also a product of that era.

"The Good Wife" follows the same pattern...the male lead is simply called Dong Zhongqing!

The younger brother of the heroine played by Shen Yan is most likely a good-for-nothing... the kind who relies on his sister for support.

In this kind of plot, the younger brother's existence is not valuable...

It's purely a prop!
However, for a newcomer like Shen Yan, it is already very good. He has lines and a character, and is a serious supporting role.

……

Take stock of your current situation.

"Lotus Tower" will be serialized soon, and the royalties will be paid next month.

Two hundred and twenty thousand words, calculated at 300 yuan per thousand words, would be 66,000 yuan, and after deducting taxes, there would be 53,600 yuan left.

The two subsequent works, "Auspicious Pattern Lotus Tower·Floating Life Joy" and "Auspicious Pattern Lotus Tower·Yangzhou Slow", together have 340,000 words.

The short-term profit from this book should be 120,000.

The long-term benefits are the royalties from publishing and copyright sales...

Shen Yan can’t rely on this thing for the time being!

Even "Feng Ge" will not be published until "Kunlun" is finished serializing...

As for copyright sales...

Less likely!

"Lotus Tower" is a martial arts novel.

I don’t remember which year it was, but for a long time, the martial arts genre, whether it was TV series or movies, was in a slump that lasted for ten years.

During this period, Bu Feiyan tried twice. One time was to cooperate with iQiyi to develop "Tian Ju". The director and leading actor were found, but it ended up in nothing. Later, she also made "Heaven Dance Ji", but unfortunately it was of no use!

Many people think that martial arts novels are out of date... In fact, it is those self-righteous screenwriters in China who are out of date.

Listening to Snow Tower… The screenwriter is rubbish. Their storytelling skills aren't even good enough to grasp the characters of Cang Yue, who's even more inclined towards romance. After the revamp, they even continued to use the concepts of revenge for the murder of the father and the separation of good and evil from the 1940s and 1950s, which Shaw Brothers rarely used…

In the original time and space, the project of "Lotus Tower" was not approved until 22 years later!

As for Feng Ge's works...

"Kunlun" helped the Mongols to destroy the Song Dynasty;
"Cang Hai" has already broken away from the shadow of traditional martial arts and entered the realm of fantasy. Not to mention "Ling Fei Jing", it is obvious that Feng Ge's mentality exploded and the writing collapsed.

Shen Yan... is quite open-minded. Serialization itself is a temporary solution.

The way to plagiarize text is to rely on online literature!
There is about a month left for "The Supreme One" to be released...

Currently, this book has dominated the new book lists!

According to the current situation, the annual income from his book should be no less than 50.

Take Xuehong for example. He returned to Qidian from Digital Network in 09 and wrote the book “Xiaoxingji”…

"Xiao Xing Ji" is poorly written. Although the performance is not very good, the annual income is still 70!
I remember that in 09, I, the highest-earning person, was only making 220 million yuan a year...

Oh, it’s still difficult for online authors to become rich and famous at this stage. It will take 10 years for advertising sales and copyright sales to start soaring. Yes, it’s only been a year…

If you work hard, there is a high chance that you can earn tens of millions a year by plagiarizing.

Well, the future is bright...

In addition to income, expenses must also be considered.

In the short term, Shen Yan needs to buy a few clothes and a pair of shoes.

I also need to buy a newest laptop.

The Shenzhou Elegant Q is cheap, but it does have a lot of problems. The most obvious one is that the battery life is less than half an hour... It's basically unusable when not plugged in. Moreover, this laptop does not have a camera or wireless network card...

Shen Yan needs something a little more upscale!

Prepare 4000 yuan to go to Zhongguancun to buy one...

We have to go when we return to the capital!

Three days later, I joined the crew of "National Anthem".

I'm not sure how many people are staying in the room, but there should be wireless internet...

Long-term planning…

Do you want to continue renting a house?

We're about to start filming "National Anthem," and then "Living Buddha Jigong"...

You shouldn't have to rent a house!
After finishing the filming of these two movies, he plans to go back to his hometown to buy a house and renovate his grandparents' house.

As for what happens next...

Where can't plagiarism be done?

Staying at home...

"Petition to the Emperor" says: "Without my grandmother, I would not have lived to this day; without me, my grandmother would not have lived out her remaining years. Mother and grandson depend on each other for survival, so I cannot abandon Yuan!"
Well…it’s settled!

……

"The National Anthem" is a mainstream drama, and can be regarded as an expanded version of the 99 Xiaoxiang Film Studio's film "The National Anthem"!
It was exclusively planned, produced, and filmed by Changsha Radio and Television Station, and co-produced by Yunnan Radio and Television Station, Hunan Radio and Television Station, and other units...

This type of drama is usually broadcast on CCTV.

When choosing actors, I usually choose actors from serious dramas, but…actors from serious dramas tend to be less appealing, or less well-known to the audience…

So, director Gong Ruofei looked for a coat of arms.

Emblem has been really popular in recent years. He has appeared in TV series such as "Struggle", "The Noble Family" and "Dwelling Narrowness", as well as movies such as "Wait and See" ("The Story of Two Donkeys"), and won a lot of awards!

With the support of the Beijing circle, there is no shortage of high-quality resources, and the image is also pleasing...

Most importantly, he has acted in "The Imperial Guards" and has a good relationship with Zhang Li!
Gong Ruofei specifically asked him to play Nie Er...

The screenwriter of this drama is Yuan Zidan, who later collaborated with Noon Sunshine many times, including the first and second seasons of "Ode to Joy", "Welcome", and the 9.6-point masterpiece "When Flowers Bloom in the Mountain"...

Why can she be a screenwriter?

And the first play is a big drama like "The National Anthem"?

Because her father Yuan Keping is a national first-class screenwriter, and he is also a member of the HUN Provincial Dramatists Association and vice president of the HUN Provincial Guyu Drama Literature Society!
Yuan Keping is indeed awesome, his representative works include "National Action" and "A Flowing River"...

Of course, these have little to do with Shen Yan. He is just an actor in the "National Anthem" crew!
