Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 329 Death isn't scary, but forgetting to format the computer
8 month 10 number.

Old Li was working on a design project in the AI ​​server room early in the morning when he heard a knock on the door.

Then Alexandra Daddario skipped in, excitedly saying, "Li, I'm back from filming, just in time for the Olympic diving."

"Shall we go check out the scene?"

Ok.

Even if he now has an upgraded version of Liu Shishi, and then there's the not-so-poor Fat Bing, Megan.

There's also the kind of technologically advanced beauty found in "The Secret Life of Mary Sue".

Seeing Alexandra again is still incredibly exciting.

Old Li paused his work and asked with a smile, "How did the filming go?"

This is a film project that Alexandra took on in 08.

It's a Hollywood production (He's Not That Into You).

This marriage and love story is alright, I guess.

A bunch of celebrities combined to achieve $9300 million in the US and $1.8 million globally.

The original version performed reasonably well in the late 00s.

But who are the leading ladies? Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Connelly.

And Scarlett Johansson.

Another actress, Drew Barrymore, debuted as a child star, playing the little girl in E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

A beautiful woman who plays one of the female leads in Charlie's Angels.

This lineup of beautiful women is enough to generate buzz.

It's still a bestselling book adaptation project.

If the original cast of stars were all paid high salaries, this project wouldn't have made much money even with a global budget of $1.8 million.

Alexandra took over Scarlett Johansson's role, essentially becoming the second female lead.

A persona that's overly sassy and manipulative.

It's alright; it could be Alexandra's representative work to make a global impact in the film industry.

Alexandra nodded happily, "This should be able to compete for the Valentine's Day slot on February 14th, 2009. It was done quickly."

"Huang played the third male lead in it, and I heard he also received $800 million in compensation."

"Huang's commercial value is getting higher and higher at this stage."

After the accidental killing, the US's $4800 million victory is truly impressive.

This is the kind of achievement that Jet Li could only frequently obtain by starring in B-movie action films.

Huang Xiaoming played a supporting role in this romantic film alongside Alexandra.

The supporting roles were alright, and the $800 million razor blade salary was top-notch.

Old Li started harvesting the fruits of his labor, saying, "Winning the gold medal in diving went very smoothly, just like watching the live broadcast on TV."

Today marks the day Guo Jingjing and her partner won China's first gold medal in diving.

Old Li respects those heroes who win glory for the country on the field.

It's simply that he's cheated to such an extreme degree, his physique has evolved to such a monstrous level.

They don't care much about competition among ordinary people anymore.

The two were watching the Olympic Games live on the 14th floor when Ah Xin came looking for them. Li Jiaxin looked dazed and complained, "Although it's become a habit."

"This girl is so unreasonable, she's cheating like a madwoman."

Li Wenyu chuckled, "It's alright, you have the nerve."

Ah Xin is 38 years old now, which is also the age when she needs the most nourishment and care in her life.

After an hour of clear, flowing water and falling petals, Ah Xin suddenly remembered something. "I came here to say that the first season of (The Best Housekeeper) is about to officially start."

What are your thoughts on the creative team?

Old Li chuckled, "Don't bother asking me about ordinary hit TV dramas, Fei Jing can be the chief director too."

Wang Jing was not very familiar with court intrigue and warfare, which was his weakness.

However, after filming and learning for a season (Back to Ming), his skill level has definitely improved.

In the early stages of (The Ultimate Housekeeper), the main themes are business battles and martial arts worlds.

Wang Jing managed to handle things very well on his own, achieving a high level of quality.

This project was started by Da Tian Tian with capital and face-saving benefits. Once Jing Tian, ​​the female lead, has mastered the acting skills, it can proceed.

At the end of October last year, Jing Tian started traveling with the crew of the TV series "Return to the Ming Dynasty" to broaden her horizons and learn new things.

She tried going to the train station herself to experience life and broaden her horizons.

Is he a junior in college now? He plays a decorative role on a small screen.

This is definitely more influential than her original starring roles in the Warring States and Great Wall series.

……

The Olympics are underway on the 10th.

Not only did Guo Jingjing and her partner win gold, but Zhang Lin's silver medal in the men's 400-meter freestyle was also broadcast live and brought to the attention of the entire nation.

Weibo also provides timely updates on numerous rankings to share the national team's performance with the public.

The entire internet is cheering for the Olympic athletes and watching the competition.

It's about two o'clock in the afternoon.

Jing Tian led Ni Ni to the fifth floor of the Media Building headquarters, outside the large conference room with the sign "(Top-Grade Servant)" hanging on it.

When Da Tiantian saw Zhang Xinyu, Wang Kai, Chen Xiao and others already chatting in the conference room.

She walked in with a graceful demeanor, smiling politely, "Good afternoon, senior sisters and brothers. Ni Ni and I brought you some small gifts."

"I hope the seniors will take good care of me when filming starts."

Zhang Xinyu hurriedly got up and came over, "I have to thank you, Tiantian. If it weren't for your efforts, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to play such an important role in such a big project."

The Servant project, which had been in preparation for more than half a year.

Jing Tian plays the female lead, Xiao Yu Ruo.

Ni Ni took the opportunity to play Xiao Yushuang, the second young lady of the Xiao family.

Zhang Xinyu plays Qin Xian'er, a courtesan who appears under a false identity.

The male lead is played by Chen Xiao.

As everyone greeted each other politely and chatted for a while, Wang Jing also entered.

Fei Jing, feeling quite smug amidst another round of greetings from everyone, said, "Alright, let's all work hard together as a team and achieve success together."

"Chen Xiao, you play Zhu Houzhao and Hu Ge in 'Back to the Ming Dynasty'."

"Now we're just waiting for the premiere on the Ming Dynasty, hoping to use your popularity to make the 'Family Servant' project a huge hit."

Chen Xiao has been a leading figure among young actors in recent years.

She has experienced (Goblin), (Little Man), (Legend of the Blue Sea), and (Sky of Love).

If this 21-year-old wasn't trying to flatter someone...

He was rarely invited to play supporting roles, from the young boy to the adult Zhengde period in the Ming Dynasty.

Chen Xiao applied to be hired because he wanted to curry favor with the emperor.

Because the youth version involves AI face swapping.

A stand-in actor with a youthful physique was hired to perform, and then AI replaced his face with that of a younger version of Chen Xiao.

Part of this was performed and filmed by Chen Xiao himself on set.

Some of his faces are those of the young emperor he played in (Goblin).

Now it's his turn to play the male lead in (The Best Housekeeper).

Upon hearing Fei Jing's words, Chen Xiao hurriedly bowed politely, "You're too kind, Brother Jing, you've already helped the group bring back a Golden Bear Award from Berlin."

"Big directors dictate TV series; we just follow their instructions."

Politeness aside...

At this stage, everyone in the conference room is still in high spirits.

Their morale is also very high.

Even though (Back to Ming Dynasty) hasn't aired yet.

But it's a typical story trope where a modern person travels back to ancient times, marries a rich and beautiful woman, and reaches the pinnacle of life.

A poor scholar rises to power, becoming the Crown Prince's tutor and embarking on a path to immense influence.

The brilliant performances of that group of stars and veteran actors.

Everyone is confident about the ratings.

After another round of business interactions, Wang Jing said excitedly, "Let me give you a little tidbit: the first season of Back to the Ming Dynasty will have 20 episodes."

Al Jazeera has bought the first-run rights for a high price of $100 million per episode.

“A South Korean company with 2000 million won has started to recover its losses without much advertising.

"This project is like The Big Bang Theory or 2 Broke Girls."

"We film in rotation, one season per year."

Huiming has already begun to recover his health.

Mainland TV stations are also vying to offer prices.

You could say that Li Qin has come of age, which is correct; Li Qin is now eighteen years old. She debuted as a child star in "My Own Swordsman" and then transitioned into adulthood, making her one of the most successful young actresses.

More importantly, it is stable and productive.

Li Qin's portrayal of Han Youniang, a character from the Huiming Dynasty, was overshadowed by new female leads in subsequent installments.

Her status as the leading lady has always remained stable.

Liu Yifei can only be considered as one of the two female leads in the first season.

Like the Ming Dynasty.

Wang Jing has the same expectations for (The Best Housekeeper), which means that he can be a stable director for several years and have a continuous stream of work.

You can consistently make money.

He now values ​​"The Best Housekeeper" much more than he did for ATV back then.

It is also much stronger than (The Little Fish and the Flower Without Flaws).

This is a top-tier production, the king of dramas of the year.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour. Zhang Xinyu walked out of the room excitedly to go back to the 9th floor, when she saw Jing Tian and Ni Ni chasing after her.

"Sister Yanzi, could you let us use your resources?"

“Nini and I haven’t watched the first season of (Back to Ming) yet, and we really want to watch it.”

Zhang Xinyu laughed, then looked at Da Tiantian with slight surprise for two seconds, "Okay, I'll take you to see it."

In this world, Da Tian Tian's debut music video was directed by "super director" Ning Hao, who was nominated for an Oscar for Best Director.

She started out with her own company.

Time Investment holds a 50% stake in the Jia Ding project, while the company behind Da Tian Tian holds the other 50%.

With this partnership, it would be easy for her to directly communicate with Bing and ask what she wants to see.

They were only one year apart in age, so Zhang Xinyu and Jing Tian weren't really close before.

She was a little scared of the other person's background.

Plus, there's someone like Mao Xiaotong, who's a total jerk, in the dorm.

She had long harbored other ambitions, but fortunately, Big Secrets was now also her, Xiao Zhang's, backing.

However, after meeting Jing Tian today, Zhang Xinyu found that Jing Tian has a very good personality and temperament.

…………

Several more days have passed.

The grand Olympic Games concluded last night on August 25th.

China topped the gold medal tally with a total of 48 gold medals.

The nationwide jubilation dispelled much of the shadow of natural disasters.

Around 10 a.m. on the 25th, Lao Li arrived at the Time Travel Department with Da Meiyuan.

When a supercomputer and a large operating platform control a drone to begin performing a moving target shooting experiment on the ground.

Da Meiyuan was stunned once again.

After the continuous firing at the moving target was completed.

Da Meiyuan's face twitched. "Brother Yu, if this kind of black technology system were introduced into the world of John Wick, the assassin group would definitely be easily wiped out."

John Wick 3 was a blockbuster released in February 2007 during the Lunar New Year season.

A year and a half has passed.

If you want to create a startup (Road to Success 4), you can start now and still make it into the 08-09 Lunar New Year film season.

Or start dominating from the first day of the Lunar New Year.

But this top female assassin in the world was truly amazed by the technology.

Old Li smiled and nodded, "I heard that this kind of drone AI control method is also being incorporated into the superpower side's battle plans in Hollywood superhero movies."

"Give me another two or three years, and this can be filmed on location."

Da Meiyuan said, both amused and exasperated, "Then we'll postpone filming (John Wick 4) for now?"

Even after two more years, such a large series can still continue to build up a sense of nostalgia.

Currently, the number of views, replies, comments, and other metrics for the Time Video Speed ​​Series are being monitored.

They are basically all top-tier blockbuster standards.

This includes male stars like Jackie Chan and Jet Li.

The women are none other than the beautiful and talented Liu Yifei, who are leading the charge.

Old Li nodded.

Da Meiyuan excitedly said again, "Didn't 'Back to the Ming Dynasty' sell out? It's 100 million per episode, so we made another 2000 million."

"I feel there's a good chance the ratings will break 20% for the first broadcast after the Olympics."

"These two major historical drama IPs can sustain us for five or six years."

"Sister Bingbing said that if the media department goes public, these two stable series can significantly increase the market value."

Old Li shook his head, both amused and exasperated. It was already August 25th.

In twenty days, Lehman Brothers will go bankrupt, and the global financial crisis will hit the world.

The mainland is also entering a real estate winter!
Why talk about going public now?

Tencent, one of Huiming's investors, also saw its market value plummet.

However, launching a media IPO plan in 09 was still a good start.

Huiming was eventually sold to Beijing TV in mainland China, and the old business relationship resulted in a high price.

Now, as we draw to a close with our Olympic blessings.

From Hu Ge and Chen Baoguo to Chen Xiao, and also Li Qin, Liu Yifei, and others.

The premiere of "Back to Ming" will be tonight, which has already been briefly announced on Weibo.

This is a one-episode-per-day broadcast.

With the appeal of this group? The ancient costume fans that Lao Hu cultivated with the Chinese Paladin series and The Return of the Condor Heroes.

Liu Yifei's ethereal beauty has captivated audiences, culminating in the "Most Beautiful Action Star" compilation in the "Chinese Zodiac" series.

Breaking the record for the highest viewership rating for a drama series like "Lurking" is perfectly normal.

This is true.

On the evening of the 25th, Lao Li was still diligently working on making shaved ice.

The first run of the show on Beijing TV started with a 19.72% rating.

Of course, the opening of "Back to the Ming Dynasty" doesn't feature a story about a virtuous person who has lived for ten lifetimes or a judge in the underworld.

The TV series version is a modern-day version of Hu Ge, who bravely jumps into the water to save someone in Shanghai.

After rescuing several children who had fallen into the water, he became exhausted and suffered from cramps, and he died.

When he wakes up again, he is in an ancient costume fantasy, a rebirth story of Yang Ling, a down-on-his-luck scholar, and Han Youniang.

This era was a time when dramas like "Palace" and "Go Princess Go" could pass censorship.

In addition, there was the promotion from Time Media and the prestige that Li Wenyu himself had earned.

The review process is really easy to negotiate.

This version even had a clever opening, showing Old Hu's last thoughts before he was reborn and drowning.

It's a heartfelt statement: dying while doing something heroic is not shameful.

But what about his computer's D drive? He should have formatted the D drive before leaving.

The plot is developing according to the outline of the novel, and it has already surpassed 20% in the first episode.

Of course, the opening and closing credits clearly state: do not imitate this; people do not travel through time or reincarnate after they die.

Countless fans of Hu Ge, Liu Yifei, and others watched the show while scrolling through Weibo on their phones using 3G or Wi-Fi.

June 8.

Old Li was sipping his morning tea on the rooftop of the headquarters, gazing southwards.

During the financial crisis in September, he was going to Hong Kong Island to do some things.

Naza strode over with her long legs and a sweet smile, "Boss, I'm almost 17, please don't break your promise then."

“I’ve been using Li Qin as a practice subject lately, and I’ve been learning massage from her for a few months.”

"To help you relax after a busy day?"

Naza, who is almost seventeen years old, is already 1.73 meters tall, and her skin is exceptionally fair and radiant.

And she also has a top-secret level of ambition.

Li Wenyu nodded and said, "Save more money this winter to buy a house."

"Housing prices will drop during the Olympic fever."

Naza nodded, her smile bright, "Shall I try to help you with the massage? If there's anything I need to improve, could you teach me? I'd like to be your apprentice in traditional Chinese medicine."

She was the one who dragged the team down the most among the Five Dragon Girls.

However, both films, "You Are the Apple of My Eye" and "Mojin: The Lost Legend," both featuring the second female lead, have grossed a combined 16 billion yuan at the national box office.

Her popularity across the internet is largely due to her stunning looks and figure.

Old Li chuckled, "Alright, let's see what you're capable of."
