#739 - Just a Conspiracy (10,000 Words Update)
The filming of the third season of "The Seventeenth Floor" has entered a very stable and smooth stage.
This season, of course, there are new characters too.
This project is the flagship drama of Beijing and Taiwan, and the third season is the finale of the series which is sure to be a hit. Previously, they wanted Chen Pinhe to show up in this season, but were stopped by Lu Yanhe. This did not prevent Jiang Lan from wanting to bring the characters in the spin-off drama to appear in this season.
Including Ji Miao came to play a role.
It is said that Beijing and Taiwan want to build a series universe around "The Seventeenth Floor", not only a spin-off series plan, but also a movie plan. Although it is just a plan——
Before Lu Yanhe could say anything, Chen Bige had already complained.
Because there are so many characters in the third season of "Seventeen Floors", and Beijing and Taiwan have basically given all the roles to well-known actors with whom they have worked together, many scenes cannot be filmed consecutively. Today, if this actor has time, we can film his scenes, and tomorrow if that actor has time, we can film his scenes.
Chen Bige's own scenes were shot in a fragmented manner, with emotions varying from place to place.
Of course, she has the ability to express every scene accurately in this non-sequential shooting, but this shooting mode makes her uncomfortable.
She went directly to Jiang Lan and raised this question to her.
"Either you let them shoot their own scenes and avoid my scenes, otherwise, it will have a big impact on me." Chen Bige said, "I have to be responsible for my role."
Jiang Lan didn't expect Chen Bige to have such a big opinion.
Of course she couldn't disrespect Chen Bige.
To be honest, it was already very impressive that Chen Bige was able to act in this series. Jiang Lan's position in Beijing and Taiwan was established by this series. And the reason why this drama was able to get the largest investment from the station at that time was also because Chen Bige was highly regarded for acting in a TV series again after many years.
After "The Seventeenth Floor", Chen Bige did not take on any other dramas, and all she acted in afterwards were movies. It can be said that the only time Chen Bige acted in a TV series in recent years was for Jiang Lan.
Compared to Lu Yanhe, who emerged as a rising star later and had the power to negotiate with Jiang Lan, Chen Bige had a "favor" to Jiang Lan from the beginning.
As a top actress in the country, her support was particularly important to Jiang Lan, a newly appointed deputy director.
Jiang Lan thought carefully and made a decision quickly.
Actors from Beijing and Taiwan who want to come can coordinate their time themselves. If they cannot coordinate their time according to the normal shooting sequence or their schedule cannot make it, forget it and find someone else.
Jiang Lan's action surprised Lu Yanhe.
It is said that he is very powerful in the entertainment industry now, but Jiang Lan's attitude towards him and Chen Bige is still different.
Lu Yanhe felt that if he had asked the same question, Jiang Lan might have solved it in the same way in the end, but it would definitely not have been so straightforward and efficient.

When the third season of "The Seventeenth Floor" was being filmed, Maxine was also launched in the second season.
The data performance is still very good.
The reputation is also good.
Maxine has bought the remake rights of "The Seventeenth Floor" from Beijing and Taiwan, and is about to create an American TV series version of "The Seventeenth Floor".
Therefore, word-of-mouth performance is more important to Maxine.
Zhong Benshuo came to the filming site of the third season of "The Seventeenth Floor" specifically, took photos with the main creators, and posted them on his social platform.
One is to celebrate the broadcast performance of the second season of "The 17th Floor" on Maxine, and the other is to show his close relationship with the crew of "The 17th Floor".
Zhong Benshuo has actually been discussing cooperation on new projects with Lu Yanhe. However, all the new projects Lu Yanhe has officially announced in the past six months are movies, not a single TV series, which makes Zhong Benshuo very depressed, but he can do nothing about it.
The Korean version of Rouge is also available on Maxine, and the show has performed very well, ranking in the top ten of the viewing charts for several weeks. But compared with the real blockbusters like Squidward and Friends, it is still much weaker.
Zhong Benshuo has been keeping a close eye on Lu Yanhe's projects. Last year, HP snatched away 2 Broke Girls, for which Lu Yanhe served as a script consultant, which made him very upset. After that, Zhong Benshuo would greet Lu Yanhe cordially almost every month to talk about his recent situation and his creation.
Lu Yanhe actually had nothing to talk to him about.
He will certainly not be writing another long-running drama until after Friends is over.
He has no plans to make movies for streaming, although Jong Ben-seok has offered him a high price in the hope that he can make a movie that will be exclusively released on Maxine.
However, this time when he came, Zhong Benshuo began to ask Lu Yanhe if he had any creative plans in the future.
Lu Yanhe said, "I have already submitted the first draft of the second season of Squidward and Friends is still being filmed. How many hands do you think I have? How can I write so much?"
Zhong Benshuo immediately said, "But I haven't even heard any news about 2 Broke Girls, for which you were the script consultant, and you gave it to Tom."
"Do I have to give all my projects to Maxine? Can I only cooperate with Maxine?" Lu Yanhe asked directly with some dissatisfaction.
Zhong Benshuo came back to his senses, immediately put on a smile and said, "Of course not, but, you see, at least we have made such good results with "Squidward" and "Friends", and even promoted "Friends" to be nominated for a Golden Globe Award. You know the strength of our Maxine."
To be honest, Maxine did a lot for Lu Yanhe's dramas. Lu Yanhe had to admit this. Of course, he never denied it, but let alone the relationship between Lu Yanhe and HP, even if there was no such relationship, Lu Yanhe had already gotten used to not putting all his eggs in one basket.
Especially for a creator of his level, he is not just an actor. To be honest, if he works with one company on so many projects, once any problem arises, everything will be ruined and nothing will be done.
Lu Yanhe said to Zhong Benshuo, "I know that you are also working on the American version of "Friends" and the Korean version of "Friends". There are already enough projects related to me. Let's clear the inventory first. What's more, although Maxine has been nominated for a Golden Globe Award for "Friends", from the current situation, I believe it can definitely be better."
Zhong Benshuo: "Of course, this time, "Friends" is also very likely to be nominated for the Screen Actors Guild Awards, and then the Emmy Awards. We will not miss any of these heavyweight awards. However, HP won "2 Broke Girls". Maybe "2 Broke Girls" will compete with "Friends" in these awards in the future. After all, it is another sitcom of the same type."
Lu Yanhe: "You overestimate me. As a Chinese drama, whether 2 Broke Girls can continue to be as popular as Friends and Squidward Idol is still unknown. Whether it can be liked by everyone depends on the right time, right place and right people."
"Although I know you are being modest, your new drama is a sitcom that is comparable to Friends. If HP cannot be launched, then HP will be rubbish." Zhong Benshuo stepped on HP without any hesitation.
Lu Yanhe: “…”
He added: "I am not the screenwriter of 2 Broke Girls. I am only responsible for providing script ideas."
"In American TV series, you are the chief screenwriter," Zhong Benshuo said. "You just don't want to take away the credit from the writers. But we all know how important the script creativity is, especially the script creativity you come up with."
Lu Yanhe: “…”
It is true that once a person becomes successful, no matter what he does or says, it will be rationalized by others.
Stay awake, stay awake, Lu Yanhe reminded himself.
-
Lu Yanhe was still able to be vigilant and alert to Zhong Benshuo's flattery, because he knew that Zhong Benshuo wanted something from him, and every word he said was just to please him.
However, for those who are truly cooperating, Lu Yanhe sometimes reminds himself not to "fall" while curling up the corners of his mouth.
The main reason is that everyone is really good at praising him. Now around him, except for Chen Ziyan and Chen Siqi, almost no one will say anything negative.
Including Li Zhibai and Yan Liang - they were not deliberately praising him or trying to make him happy, but in their eyes, Lu Yanhe was really a person who was good in every way and did everything well.
Lu Yanhe also understood that with so many successes under his belt, generally speaking, as long as his opinions and suggestions were put forward, they would not be opposed.
Because everyone assumes that he is right.
Only Lu Yanhe knew that the scripts he wrote were basically proven successful products by the market, but apart from that, he would still say the wrong things and do the wrong things.
It's just that the facts are often obscured.
If one day he said that the sun rises from the west, everyone would think that he was about to write the beginning of an apocalyptic story.
-
Therefore, Lu Yanhe now hardly says any evaluative words about the play or other aspects on the set.
Otherwise, he might have just mentioned it casually, and someone would immediately take it as an imperial decree and do it.
Having someone like him around is quite a threat to the director's authority.
This is different from Chen Bige.
No matter how high Chen Bige's status is, if he has a dispute with Lian Bei one day, everyone may stand on Chen Bige's side. But it is definitely not because they firmly believe that Chen Bige's views are definitely right and Lian Bei's views are definitely wrong.
Therefore, Lu Yanhe would usually behave more "obediently" when Lian Bei was present.
He feels that as an actor, as long as you meet a director who understands drama and acting, it is your responsibility to maintain the director's authority on the set. Because once the authority of the director, the helmsman, is affected, the whole ship will be shaken.
However, Lian Bei himself said that he was able to encounter a project like "The Seventeenth Floor" when directing his second work, so he would not be afraid of any bigger projects in the future.
S-level investment, top-notch cast. It's impossible for a bigger play to appear than this.
"They want me to direct the spin-off series, but I'm really tired. I want to do other projects and don't want to be bound to the world view of "The Seventeenth Floor" all the time." Lian Bei said to Lu Yanhe in the lounge, "We are still negotiating it."
"If you really don't want to direct, and you're not a contracted director with Beijing and Taiwan, it shouldn't be that difficult for you, right?"
"I am indeed a little hesitant. After all, we created the worldview of "The Seventeenth Floor" from scratch, and the spin-off series is starring an actor of Chen Pinhe's caliber."
Lu Yanhe hummed and nodded.
“And, to be honest, The Seventeenth Floor is so popular and has such good results, and it is entirely possible that it will become a classic IP by continuing to produce one series after another, and it will also attract many viewers overseas.” Lian Bei said, “Did you know that the second season of The Seventeenth Floor was online on Maxine for three days and the number of viewers exceeded three million, which has surpassed the first season.”
"I haven't heard of this." Because "Seventeenth Floor" was not his project, he was just an actor, and for this kind of thing, most actors would only hear about it at a later stage.
"On the other hand, it is said that Maxine wants to create a movie based on the character in the Chen Pinhe spin-off series." Lian Bei said, "I have never directed a movie, so this opportunity is quite attractive to me."
"Movie?" Lu Yanhe said, "In fact, the world view of 'Seventeenth Floor' is suitable for a spin-off movie, but have they agreed to let you make this movie?"
"Yeah." Lian Bei nodded, "If I'm willing to direct the spin-off series, I'll definitely be the one to direct the spin-off movie as well."
"If you think it's an opportunity that attracts you, then go for it," Lu Yanhe said. "There will be plenty of time for other projects later, but if you can really make 'Seventeenth Floor' a classic IP, as you said, it's very precious, and it's something that any director can only encounter once in a while."
"Then if I invite you to come back and play this role again later, would you be willing to come?"
"If there's a good way to make an appearance, of course I'm willing." Lu Yanhe nodded. "If I didn't like this story and this character, I wouldn't have been able to shoot three seasons with you in one go. For me, apart from Friends, I've never shot a show longer than this. In fact, Friends didn't shoot as many seasons as The Seventeenth Floor."
Lian Bei breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
"I was really worried at first. You didn't want to come because you didn't want to cooperate with Beijing and Taiwan anymore."
"I have to admit that there were some unhappy things between Jingtai and me, but Jiangtai and I were fine. I can say that when I didn't get along with those people in Jingtai, Jiangtai was the only one I was willing to contact." Lu Yanhe said, "It's just that it's hard to explain clearly. Director, you know, I am very willing to continue to cooperate with you, but film and television projects are like this. It's not just about you and me, but there are many parties involved. Sometimes, even if I really want to continue to cooperate with you, there are other factors that prevent me from cooperating."
When Lian Bei heard this, he suddenly thought of something, turned around and looked around to make sure that no one else could hear his voice, then he asked in a low voice: "I heard that you and Chen Pinhe had some conflicts, is that right?"
Lu Yanhe paused, nodded, and said, "It's not that there is a little contradiction, but that we will never be able to cooperate in the future."
Lian Bei looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise.
What surprised him was that Lu Yanhe admitted it directly without any ambiguity.
This reaction made Lian Bei curious about what happened between Lu Yanhe and Chen Pinhe that made Lu Yanhe say so decisively that there would be no possibility of cooperation in the future.
Having known Lu Yanhe for so many years and having filmed three dramas together, Lian Bei more or less knows what kind of person Lu Yanhe is.
If Lu Yanhe had a bad temper and was prone to conflicts and fights with others, it would be impossible for him to hide it all the time.
Lian Bei thought for a moment and asked, "So, if Chen Pinhe is in the movie I'm shooting, I won't be able to invite you no matter what."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
"Then if I cooperate with him after knowing your relationship with Chen Pinhe, can I still cooperate with you in the future?"
"Of course, can I stop others from cooperating with Chen Pinhe?" Lu Yanhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm just competing with myself, not with others."
Lian Bei: "Then aren't you at a disadvantage?"
"Suffer a loss?" Lu Yanhe asked, "Suffer a loss of what?"
Lian Bei said, "You obviously didn't do anything, but just because you refused to cooperate with Chen Pinhe, some people would think you are difficult to deal with, right? Especially, no matter what, Chen Pinhe is also a senior, especially in the entertainment industry."
Lu Yanhe said: "It doesn't matter. At most, people will say a few gossips about me. If I have come this far and still can't refuse to cooperate with people who don't want to cooperate, then I have been working in vain."
When he said this, he deliberately sounded nonchalant, as if he didn't take the matter to heart at all.
"You're right." Lian Bei nodded.
Lu Yanhe asked: "Director, if you don't shoot a spin-off series, what projects do you have?"
Lian Bei said: "In fact, I have been preparing a suspense story. The script has been ready a long time ago and the copyright has been purchased, but the filming has not started yet. If it does not start next year, the copyright will expire. I originally wanted to start filming this year."
Lu Yanhe said: "It seems that every director has a dream of making a suspenseful film."
Lian Bei: "I just don't like to repeat themes I have filmed before. My first drama was a fairy tale. Of course, that drama performed well, and all the projects that came after that were fairy tales. Now that "Seventeenth Floor" has become a hit, many horror and adventure projects have come to me. Previously, there was also a script similar to "The Gold Rush" about treasure hunting adventures abroad. It was actually well written, but it was too similar to "The Gold Rush."
"That certainly doesn't appeal to you."
Lian Bei has been promoted to a top-tier director since his first drama as a director. The series "Seventeen Floors" has further proved his ability to handle a variety of subject matter.
Lu Yanhe thought for a moment and said, "If you need funding for your suspense project or need me to do anything, you can contact me at any time."
Lian Bei was a little surprised, but he also knew why Lu Yanhe said that.
"This drama is not short of funds, but the problem now is that we are worried that the copyright will expire and be taken back by then." Lian Bei said, "After all, we have actually prepared the script and other things, but we just haven't had the time to do it."
"What's the name of the original novel? Who is the author?" Lu Yanhe said, "Let me see if Siqi and I know each other. If we do, I can ask him what he thinks."
Lian Bei: "Jiang Yan is a novel written by Wang Er. It is not very famous. It was published more than ten years ago. I read it when I was in school and it left a deep impression on me. I kept thinking about it. Originally, the copyright of this novel was not very popular. As a result, Wang Er's novel adapted from his novel two years ago, Harvest Seeds, became popular in the market, and then Jiang Yan was discovered."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
"I know "Harvest Seeds", it's pretty good, a TV series about teaching in rural areas, it was originally a mainstream TV series, but it was filmed very well and became very popular." Lu Yanhe said, "I watched every episode without missing a single one."
Lian Bei: "Yes, so if the copyright of "Jiang Yan" expires and is taken back, it will be bad. I also asked people in the company to talk to him about renewal, but his copyright is too expensive now. When we bought the adaptation rights of this novel before, it only cost one million, but now it directly costs tens of millions. At the original price, they will definitely not be willing to renew it."
Lu Yanhe understood.
He thought for a moment and said, "In that case, the only way is to start filming before the copyright expires."
Lian Bei: "This is also the reason why I haven't agreed to Jiang Tai yet."
"Jiangtai actually doesn't need to tie you to the 'Seventeenth Floor' series. According to Jingtai's vision, this is going to be a big universe. Do you have to direct every 'Seventeenth Floor' project in person? That's not realistic." Lu Yanhe said, "I think you can participate in other 'Seventeenth Floor' projects as a supervisor and producer, including script consultant, to ensure that the general direction does not deviate. As for Jingtai, they can't rely on the 'Seventeenth Floor' series forever. If you want to do a new project, they will definitely hope to get it."
Lian Bei: "Of course they are also interested in the project of "Jiang Yan", but compared to that, "Seventeenth Floor" is definitely more valued."
Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "Director, if you are making "Jiang Yan", can I recommend an actor to you?"
"Ah?" Lian Bei was stunned.
"In fact, I have read the novel Jiang Yan. Since I read Harvest Seeds, I have also paid attention to Mr. Wang Er. We have even been trying to contact him in Jump Up, hoping to invite him to publish a new work in Jump Up." Lu Yanhe smiled slightly, "If you direct Jiang Yan, I will help you negotiate a cast that will impress the Beijing and Taiwan audiences."
Lian Bei widened his eyes in surprise.
"Really?"
"Yes, of course. If you already have an actor in mind, I won't say anything more." Lu Yanhe smiled, "To be honest, Linghe actually asked about the copyright of "Jiang Yan". We only knew that it was bought by someone, but we didn't know it was bought by you. It's such a coincidence."
Lian Bei also spread his hands in disbelief to express his surprise.
"I don't even have time to take care of this project, so how can I choose actors?" Lian Bei said.
He certainly wasn't telling the truth.
Lu Yanhe believed that Lian Bei must have his favorite actor in his mind.
After all, the script has already been written.
"But you have to direct it yourself, otherwise I won't feel comfortable bringing these actors to film this movie." Lu Yanhe said, "I only believe in your ability."
Lian Bei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Can I ask first which actors you would like to cast?"
"First of all, the male lead, Jiang Yan, is a young boy who grew up on the streets, has great skills and a strong sense of the market. I think Yan Liang is very suitable for this role." Lu Yanhe said, "He has been training in martial arts for the past two years and has very good skills. He can personally perform many of the fighting scenes in the novel. Moreover, if you have read The Gold Rush, you will know that there is a lot of room for him to shape his image. He can definitely play the role of a market person."
Lian Bei nodded thoughtfully.
"Secondly, there are two key female characters in this drama, one is Aunt Mei and the other is Aunt Wang. For the former, I think Teacher Wan Xin, who co-starred with me in Love Letter, is very suitable. She is a person of noble family background, elegant manners but ruthless, and she can perfectly play the role with her acting skills."
Lian Bei's eyes lit up slightly.
"I think Teacher Liu Zi is a good match for Aunt Wang, a woman who is fierce and aggressive in the market but warm and kind in nature." Lu Yanhe smiled, "I don't need to say much about her, right? She can play the role of Tong, a woman who is difficult to portray. There's nothing much to say about that."
Lian Bei: "If we can invite these people over, it would be really——"
"Not only that, Jiang Yan's friend, the classmate who died tragically for standing up for him, the very sunny and kind Zhou Yu, Li Yuefeng and Liu Zefan are all suitable, right?"
"Can they come in for a supporting role?"
"If I invite them, they will probably agree," Lu Yanhe said. "Besides, you are directing it yourself, so why wouldn't they agree?"
Lian Bei didn't say anything.
These people, no matter who they are, usually play the leading male and female roles outside, but in Lu Yanhe's case, as long as the role is suitable, it seems that he doesn't even consider whether he can invite them or not.
Of course, Lu Yanhe definitely has this confidence.
"Wang Jing and Yan Lingyu can both play the role of the unruly and enthusiastic rich girl that Jiang Yan meets later. It depends on whether you focus more on the unruly side of this character or her beautiful side."
As Lu Yanhe spoke, he thought about whether he had missed anyone.
"These are the main characters with the most important roles. Of course, the best part of the drama "Jiang Yan" is the various people Jiang Yan meets along the way. In the novel, many characters only appear once, but they are very impressive and the characters are written very well. I think an all-star cast can achieve this effect for these characters."
Lian Bei asked: "If this is the case, the actors' pay should be very high, right?"
"With such a lineup, Beijing and Taiwan will not be stingy." Lu Yanhe said, "If your production budget is tight, or Beijing and Taiwan are unwilling to pay a high price, I will make up for the shortfall. Platforms such as Yuehutai, Northern Lights, Icefield, Maxine and HP will all be happy to buy."
I don't even know what to say.
There were only two words in his mind: arrogant!
Too arrogant.
Lian Bei was already the most sought-after first-line director in the industry, but he had never seen Lu Yanhe speak in such a tone.
Words that would appear arrogant if spoken by someone else seemed particularly natural when spoken by him.
After hearing the end, Lian Bei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you trying to get me to film "Jiang Yan" with this lineup instead of filming a spin-off of "The Seventeenth Floor"?"
Lu Yanhe nodded.
"Yes, I admit it." He smiled, "It's just an open conspiracy."
Lian Bei looked at the smile on Lu Yanhe's face and didn't know what to say for a moment.
-
Lu Yanhe really likes the story of "Jiang Yan".
This novel is really well written.
Although it is a suspense story, it is not the kind where someone dies or a case happens and a group of people investigate the truth.
This is a novel set in the Republic of China. It tells the story of Jiang Yan, a street gangster who was entrusted by someone to deliver something to the second master of the Ning Mansion. However, he failed to deliver the item and was killed. Jiang Yan escaped from death and wanted to find out what happened, so he started looking for the truth. He met all kinds of people, experienced all kinds of things, and tried his best to find the truth, just to find the person who almost killed him and take revenge.
The story is told in a single line, with only Jiang Yan as the main perspective. Therefore, even though there are many characters, it does not make people feel confused.
Lu Yanhe sincerely felt that if this story was well filmed, it would be a hit. Because there is no such drama on the market, but the story itself is good. Fresh and interesting, all it needs is a group of capable people to make this dish and send it to everyone's table.
After Lu Yanhe finished talking to Lian Bei, he was about to set off for Xitul with Chen Bige.
Of course, there is no rush for Lian Bei to reply to Lu Yanhe right now.
No matter how anxious we are to make the decision, we must first finish filming the third season of "The Seventeenth Floor".
Lu Yanhe specifically talked about this matter with Chen Siqi and asked Chen Siqi to talk to teacher Wang Er about the latter's thoughts.
The best thing is that they can buy the film and television copyright of "Jiang Yan" so as to be prepared. However, the copyright fee of "Jiang Yan" is really expensive, and the copyright has not expired yet. It is not cost-effective to buy it now.
After all, as long as the filming can start this year, there is no need to renew the contract.
Chen Siqi told Lu Yanhe that they were discussing with teacher Wang Er about reprinting his works.
Wang Ermou has no shortage of publishing houses or related agents.
However, the advantage of "Jump Up" is that it has a huge readership.
It’s impossible for any writer to ignore the influence that Jump Up now has among print book readers.
Like Shi Xia, "Tiaoqilai" has been responsible for the publication of three of his books, one new book and two reprints of old books. For each publication, "Tiaoqilai" held a matching publicity, which made the total sales of these three books exceed one million copies.
In this era, it is very rare to sell such a number of works, even for a writer of Mr. Shi Xia's level.
Therefore, Lu Yanhe has always believed that in time, "Tiaoqi" will become the largest media group in China, because its foundation is more solid than any other media group.
In this era, only "Tiaoqiqi" can cultivate hundreds of thousands of consumers who regularly buy magazines and derive various media forms and audiences from them. It is really difficult to replicate.
Lu Yanhe was thinking this and had already prepared with his team. When they were about to set off for Xitul, Xin Zixing suddenly sent Lu Yanhe a message: Yanhe, Yemai.com has recruited me to be the editor-in-chief of the website.
Lu Yanhe was sitting in the airport waiting room, looking at the message in surprise.
He and Xin Zixing met because of the leaf vein network.
Starting from "City Travels", he and Xin Zixing became such good friends and work partners.
Xin Zixing was promoted all the way in Yemai.com, and Lu Yanhe witnessed it.
Xin Zixing chose to leave the leaf vein network, and Lu Yanhe also witnessed it.
Xin Zixing jumped up and picked up the fire, and then worked with him on "The Birth of an Actor", and Lu Yanhe was also a witness.
Lu Yanhe never thought that Yemai.com would invite her back one day.
To be honest, Yemai.com had treated Xin Zixing badly before, and it could even be said that it made it very difficult for Xin Zixing to live her life.
It is clear that Xin Zixing has made great and outstanding contributions to the development of leaf vein network.
Lu Yanhe asked in confusion: "They want you to be the editor-in-chief of the website? What about the original editor-in-chief of the website?"
Xin Zixing: Is it convenient for you to call now?
Lu Yanhe immediately made a phone call.
"I'm waiting for my flight. I'll board in about twenty minutes."
"Okay, I'll tell you briefly." Xin Zixing said, "You should have heard before that Shijin Group is acquiring Yemai Internet Cafe?"
"Yes, I heard about it. I heard that Yang Zhouli was in charge of this matter, so I paid some attention to it."
"He came to talk to me personally," Xin Zixing said. "He hoped that after the acquisition, he would let me be responsible for the reorganization of Yemai.com and all its contents."
Lu Yanhe was not surprised that Xin Zixing was invited back——
Anyone who knows the history of Xin Zixing and Yemai.com knows how much Xin Zixing contributed to it, and they also know that Xin Zixing is a powerful driving force for Yemai.com.
In the past two years, the development of Yemai.com has not been very good.
It used to be the largest literary and artistic online community in the country, but now due to the prosperity of Tiaoqi, it is not gradually declining, but it is definitely not the only one dominating the market.
And high-quality brand projects like "City Travel Notes" can almost be said to be at a low point.
Star!, edited by Yu Jiang, was running at a loss and its reputation was not satisfactory.
There hasn't been anything new for a long time.
Lu Yanhe felt that if Yemaiwang had not accumulated enough blood before, it might have been squandered in the past few years.
-
"Do you want to go?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Xin Zixing said: "Yes."
She didn't hesitate at all.
"Compared to making the show, to be honest, I have a deeper affection for Yemai.com," she said. "That's where I have struggled for many years."
"It can give you a position as the editor-in-chief of a website. You can say that this website is basically yours to decide. It's a very generous opportunity."
"Yes." Xin Zixing said, "In the past few years that I have been doing programs outside, I have actually been a little confused. It's not that I don't like these programs, but I always feel that this is not my main job. I just came to a field that many people are doing, and tried to do as well as them. However, this is not the field I really want to work hard in."
Lu Yanhe: "If that's the case, I think you already have the answer."
"If I return to Yemai.com, I will have several projects in the works," Xin Zixing said, "including Sing My Song."
"Find someone good to take over your job. Also, is there anyone you think is suitable to take over?" Lu Yanhe asked with a smile, "Sister Zixing, don't feel pressured. At most, you can just suspend these projects for a while and continue after finding a suitable person to take the helm. I also think that you can best play to your strengths at Yemai.com. I like the show "City Travel Notes" very much. If you go back, why don't we start this show again?"
Xin Zixing asked in shock, "Are you still willing to come back to do City Travels?"
"In recent years, I have often regretted that I can't continue this program." Lu Yanhe said, "To put it simply, the content and tone of this program are what I like. It is not like "China in Classics" which starts with culture and history, but an ordinary, daily perspective to record the story of an individual exploring a city. The smaller it is, the more realistic and human it is."
"To put it in a broader sense, I have always felt that this program may one day become a business card, introducing these places in our country to the world, not in the form of a documentary with exquisite pictures and calm surroundings, but in a very lifelike and down-to-earth way that appears in front of everyone. You see, we have made so many good film and television dramas, and now they are liked by so many people overseas. I think City Travels can also do the same."
Just like "A Bite of China" and those short videos by Li Ziqi.
Xin Zixing was surprised when she heard this.
"I didn't expect you to have such high expectations for City Travels."
"The expectations behind are just something I feel is possible to achieve, but what motivates me to continue doing this program are the small aspects in the beginning," Lu Yanhe said. "When I was recording City Travels, I was at my most comfortable."
Xin Zixing: "Okay, I'll research it, thank you."
"Shouldn't I be the one thanking you?"
"No, I mean, Yan He, thank you for always supporting me at the most critical moments." Xin Zixing said.
"It's not that I will always support you at the most critical moment, but if I don't support you, I have no other choice, really, Sister Zixing." Lu Yanhe said, "You will never know how much I admire you."
If he was invincible because of his golden finger, then Xin Zixing relied entirely on herself to come up with ideas one by one, and then put them into practice one by one.
Without Xin Zixing, many things are just good ideas at first glance. But with Xin Zixing, Lu Yanhe became an "amazing variety show genius" because his program creativity always touches the hearts of the public.
Therefore, whether Xin Zixing is making a show or working as the editor-in-chief of Yemai.com, Lu Yanhe thinks it's great. As long as it's what Xin Zixing wants to do, she can do it well.
And her relationship with him will certainly not change because of these changes in jobs.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yanhe stood up and prepared to board the plane.
After getting on the plane and finding his seat, he discovered that there was already someone sitting in the seat next to him.
Lu Yanhe looked at him in surprise.
Because this is an acquaintance.
To be precise, although they had met, it was on the Internet, through video.
But he would not remember it wrongly, because that meeting was so impressive.
Yang Zhouli looked up and saw him, and smiled with some surprise.
"Mr. Lu, what a coincidence! It turns out you are also on this flight to Xitul."
Lu Yanhe came back to his senses, nodded and smiled.
"Mr. Yang, what a coincidence." He asked, "Are you going to Xitul too?"
"Yes." Yang Zhouli nodded, "Let's go to Xitul and see the top international film festival."
