Depressive Screenwriter

This book is first published on the entire network by 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.

Whether it's people, things, or works, there are only wrongly chosen names, never wrongly chosen nicknames.

In Su Yan's previous life, the nickname "I Want to Tell You, But I Want to Make You Anxious to Death" spread in the fan groups.

In Xia Country, this nickname has now begun to overshadow the original name, and many casual viewers can roughly understand what kind of work it is just by looking at the nicknames of these works discussed by fans.

In the new week, the popularity of "I Want to Tell You" continues to spread, and Su Yan's Dimensional Film and Television Company is not only promoting the "FSN" drama series, but also the "FSN" game.

Before the drama series was even established, Su Yan first set up the game department and then established the game project.

Su Yan invested a lot of money into these derivative games, and he didn't plan to make money from the games for the time being.

Whether it's the "FSN" game or the "Kenshin" game that will be launched together during the Spring Festival, it would be best if they could make money. Even if the market response is not good, as long as the loss is not too outrageous, it will be considered as accumulating experience for the company's game department, planning for the future.

In late October, a series of income from the previously broadcast "FZ" gradually arrived from various channels.

Su Yan's company now has three major sectors: games, dramas, and movies, advancing simultaneously. Su Yan even established a department specifically to build a merchandise production factory. Every day, a large amount of funds flow out of the company, but the fact is that the cash in the company's account is still rising.

Since Su Yan's debut, even though many of his works have been completed, as Su Yan's fame expands, new viewers are drawn in to catch up on the dramas, and the subsequent income accumulates to a terrifying amount.

Even if the audience in the Xia Country market is saturated and no longer growing for a certain work, the overseas market that Su Yan is developing has formed a new blue ocean.

Just normal development and expansion, without engaging in any capital schemes or leverage, with Su Yan's and the company's current development needs, these revenues cannot be spent at all.

Arriving at the company and casually looking at the company's recent financial reports, Su Yan took a deep breath and looked at the company's employee salaries and bonus expenditures.

The income of Dimensional Film and Television Company employees is already very high. Su Yan has several works a year, and the total shooting cost of these works exceeds one billion. Part of this money flows into the accounts of his employees and becomes their salaries and bonuses.

For a company with only three hundred employees, this expenditure is already outrageous. Any more would just be giving money to the employees.

"Forget it, don't worry about these things," Su Yan said with relief.

His previous thinking was that if the money earned was not spent in a timely manner, either through investment or consumption, it would be as if it had not been earned.

But now... whatever.

With Su Yan's limited mind, he really couldn't think of how to rationally invest this money without wasting too much of his time managing the filming of film and television dramas.

"Um, give Ayumi Shinozaki and me a bigger dividend. Distribute several hundred million first. I remember she said that the villa complex she lives in is very noisy, so let her buy a new one..."

Su Yan decided on this matter with a pat on his head. Although this was already the third shareholder dividend this year, and there were only two shareholders in the company, one was Su Yan and the other was Ayumi Shinozaki.

Although shareholder dividends require the payment of huge amounts of personal income tax, Su Yan didn't care. Whether it was in his previous life or in Xia Country, many celebrities have fallen due to tax issues. Su Yan paid close attention to this area, and even suggestions from the finance department that he could have ways to operate were rejected by him.

After all, there was no need...

Because the filming of the "Rurouni Kenshin" movie was basically over, Su Yan didn't have many roles in "FSN", and Su Yan had no filming schedule this week for "Code Geass". Su Yan had just written the scripts for "Howl's Moving Castle" and "Weathering with You", and only Ayumi Shinozaki in the entire company had read them. She was still thinking about how to choose the cast.

These days, Su Yan basically had nothing to do.

People who are usually busy are not used to being idle.

"Now I understand why those leaders in my previous life always liked to work overtime," Su Yan smiled wryly to himself after a long time.

However, Su Yan's boredom only lasted for three days.

Ayumi Shinozaki is a person of action.

With Dimensional Film and Television Company's current strength and status in the industry, although the company currently has multiple projects in the game, drama, and movie sectors starting simultaneously, adding two more movie projects doesn't pose any pressure at all.

What's more...

If Dimensional Film and Television Company wants to expand and develop, it has to cooperate with some film and television capital both domestically and internationally.

For example, if Su Yan wants to explore the foreign market, the same foreign film and television capital also wants to explore the Xia Country market. This kind of thing depends on their abilities, but having partners and channels in their respective markets will undoubtedly be more effective.

For works like "Howl's Moving Castle", Ayumi Shinozaki has already thought about how to negotiate conditions with some foreign partners for the participation of some important supporting roles.

The more works Su Yan establishes, the more bargaining chips Ayumi Shinozaki has in her hands, and she naturally can't wait for Su Yan to write a bunch of scripts.

Of course, Ayumi Shinozaki also considered whether the company should recruit some industry screenwriters. The company doesn't necessarily have to only produce scripts that Su Yan comes up with, but after thinking about it for a few days, she also took the initiative to give up this idea.

The reason is very simple. A company that has only made first-class film and television dramas since its success, suddenly making second-class film and television dramas, isn't that degrading its status? Su Yan's works have already taken a large share of the market, so there's really no need to compete with other TV stations and film and television production companies for scraps.

On Saturday, the internal project proposals for "Howl's Moving Castle" and "Weathering with You" were initially completed, and Ayumi Shinozaki immediately began to build the film crew.

And on Sunday...

It was once again Su Yan's fan activity day once a week.

After a week, the grievances of Su Yan's fans have not subsided.

Everyone gathered in various forums, fan groups, and official website accounts. Without anyone organizing them, this group of people continued the tone of last week and continued to scold Su Yan today, venting their anger.

Generally speaking, before the most important plot of his works is broadcast, Su Yan will give his fans a hint, a psychological expectation.

Today was no exception. He posted a smiling Minion emoticon on his creator account.

His intention was to give his fans a little hint that everyone could laugh at tonight's plot.

But this move, in the eyes of his fans, was almost equal to provocation.

Okay, our fans have been depressed here for a week, and I don't know how many people have been so distressed by last week's plot that they haven't recovered for a week.

What is Su Yan doing?

Posting this smiling Minion.

Are you laughing at us fans?

The fans of "I Want to Tell You", who were already full of resentment, couldn't bear it this time.
