In the Beginning, I Just Wanted to Make Money

Chapter 122 Tang Ren’s Sincerity (24)

Very good!

Sun Yan thinks Shen Xudong is a good person...

How should I put it? Since I learned about Shen Xudong's identity, in addition to being a screenwriter, he has also been appointed as the deputy director of the production department...

Deputy Director, listen to this word!

It’s clear that Zhuang Liqi wants to play checks and balances and use Shen Xudong to resist Sun Yan...

It can't be considered a confrontation, it's actually just a little thought from the superior.

After all, Sun Yan has too much power. He is also the executive producer and production director. How can he review himself?

And a woman was also arranged to join the production team, or the financial team to be exact!

Sun Yan originally thought that Shen Xudong arranged for Chen Xi to join the financial department of the film crew because he wanted to seize power from him...

result…

That's not the case at all!

Chen Xi simply joined the team to learn, and he really learned it. He traveled a lot with the location production team...

Sun Yan arranged for her to reconcile...

Even if she does financial work, she happily accepts it...

The financial work of the crew is very simple, just reconciliation!

But it’s really tedious!

Air tickets for staff and actors, gas tickets for drivers, car rental fees, clothing fees, wigs, props, scenery and building materials fees, staff insurance fees...etc.

Then there are the taxi fares for extra performers who finish work late, and the wages of each extra...

There are also walk-on shots that start at half the price.

Then generally the crew pays the money in three installments. Sign the contract, shoot half of the shoot, and shoot once after the shoot.

So many actors and crew...

There is also money for water, disposable cups, garbage bags, paper towels...

These must be accounted for!

Chen Xi did a great job and gradually became Sun Yan's right-hand man...

As for Shen Xudong...

I have no intention of competing with him for power...

In daily production meetings, I basically don’t speak...

I originally thought that he was hiding his clumsiness on purpose, suppressing his bad intentions, and secretly reported to Zhuang Liqi...

Thinking too much!

Shen Xudong didn't care about this at all.

It's not his crew. As long as it doesn't delay him from writing, don't affect him from contacting clients, or trying to please the rich woman...

What does what you do have to do with him?

Therefore, Sun Yan directly suppressed the kiss incident with Da Meiyuan, and did not even let Shen Xudong pay...

This is called reciprocating love!

Sun Yan came to see Shen Xudong...

With the mentality of continuing to cooperate, it is difficult to find such a partner. If nothing else works, Chen Xi must keep him!

Shen Xudong probably understood what Sun Yan meant, thought for a while, and said: "Brother Sun Yan, Chen Xi is my senior... If you fancy her, I will definitely have no objection to letting her stay... But, she is from the acting department. , it would be best if she could be given a role in "The Love of the Golden Branch"... That way, she can also write her graduation thesis!"

"...She majored in acting? Then why not become an actress in "The Best in the World"?"

"Our "The Best in the World" is a big production, and famous actresses have been cast for famous characters. Chen Xi...isn't famous at all."

"Then why don't you help her fight for it?"

(﹁﹁)

Shen Xudong said nothing, his meaning was obvious, who am I?

Sun Yan sighed: "It's such a pity. Chen Xi is definitely a good young talent. Don't worry, the crew of "The Golden Branch" tells her what role she wants to play. Let me... let's help her fight for it!"

"...Then...on behalf of Sister Chen Xi, I would like to write more support for Brother Sun Yan!"

"Nothing, it should be."

Sun Yan left, and Shen Xudong lost sleep...

It was almost noon. After taking a shower, Shen Xudong was going to eat something.

Of course there is lunch at the hotel, but the crew is almost a twenty-minute drive from the hotel. They rarely go back to the hotel just for a meal. They usually have packed lunches, so only idlers like Shen Xudong have time to have lunch at the hotel!

After dinner, Shen Xudong originally planned to visit the set.

After hailing a taxi and getting in, my phone rang...

It's actually Feng Boyuan...

This is the chief director of the crew!

Why is he looking for Shen Xudong?

Shen Xudong instantly thought of Mai Guanzhi...

Could it be?

"Hello, Director Feng?"

"...I'm on the production team's side...what's wrong?"

"...In the evening...if you have time, let's have dinner together, no problem!"

"Well, you are busy..."

Dinner date?

Or make a private appointment for dinner?

Do you want to discuss "Sword of Immortality"?

What is there to discuss? Not to mention that Shen Xudong has no novel opinions on "Sword of Immortal". Even if he did express his opinions, would they listen?

Well, Shen Xudong underestimated himself again!

In other words, I underestimated "Zhu Xian"...

"Zhu Xian" is very popular online!

The length is relatively moderate, there is not so much repetition, the structure and character development are relatively complete, the language has found a better balance between antiques and modern life, the scene descriptions are beautiful and majestic, and the characters have delicate thoughts...

In a word, the writing is good, the story is novel, and the emotional line... is unforgettable!

One has a cold personality, while the other has a lively personality, and both female protagonists have had the experience of being alone with the male protagonist in a sealed space, and their relationship has grown...

A bunch of people from Tianya and Maopu discussed "Zhu Xian". At first, they discussed whether it could be considered martial arts. Now they mainly discuss Baguio and Lu Xueqi...

Offline, in addition to the serialized version of "Zhu Xian", the traditional Chinese copyright has been sold, and the simplified version has also been published - it is impossible not to publish it, as unscrupulous piracy has become rampant...

Although the simplified version was published urgently, the first volume still sold more than 200,000 copies in one month!

"The Best in the World" + "Zhu Xian", the accumulation of two books, Shen Xudong's reputation, at least in the field of 'writer', is not weaker than Guo Jingming...

It also has a large number of readers (fans) following it...

Especially after the opening of the Southern Xinjiang Line, the attention of "Zhu Xian" has increased again!

The southern border line of "Zhu Xian" is really well written - the love between the beast god and Linglong...

Many netizens have already said that "Zhu Xian" is not weaker than Jin Yong's novels at all! ', and then someone retorted, 'Zhu Xian' is a plagiarism from 'The Swordsman'...'

Anyway, the influence of "Zhu Xian" is far greater than that of "The Best in the World"...

Let's put it this way, a company has already offered millions to buy the film and television adaptation rights of "Zhu Xian"...

It once again triggered the discussion of "Zhu Xian".

In fact, this is Shen Haobo's hype - in order to expand his popularity...

It's a normal thing to sell books like this - the famous critic Bai Ye, who was later scolded by Han Han for shutting down his blog, planned "911 Life and Death Wedding" and used the trick of "a foreign company negotiated for the adaptation rights for one million dollars" …

Unfortunately, the sales of "911 Life and Death Wedding" were still poor, and the lie was even exposed by reporters on the spot, and was later named by Han Han...

By the way, this incident caused Bai Ye to stop planning and transform into literary criticism, specifically criticizing those born in the 1980s. This angered Han Han and eventually triggered the Han-Bai dispute...

"Zhu Xian"... but no one questioned it, because Deng Dazui took the initiative to claim it...

To bring it back, in short, after this battle, Shen Xudong successfully replaced An Yueran and became one of the three representative best-selling writers born in the 1980s...

Well, tied with Han Han and Guo Jingming!

Poetry masters all want to ask Guo Jingming to write the novel version of "The Promise". Tang Ren and the others want to ask Shen Xudong to write "The Immortal Sword". What's wrong?

So, that night, Shen Xudong met Cai Yinong, Li Guoli... and Xu Xiaofang in the box.

Tang Ren's two top executives mobilized...

It can be said to be full of sincerity!
