On the phone, Zhao Jinglun did not explain why Fang Long wanted to talk to him, but only provided a time and address, asking Ye Zhiqiu to come directly there the next day.

In addition to these, the two inevitably talked about filming.

Zhao Jinglun praised Ye Zhiqiu's role as "Xu Changqing" in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", and also gave some acting advice.

Also talked about was "Crazy Stone" which will be launched at the end of June, and the animated film "Big Fish and Begonia" which has announced its production plan.

"Zhiqiu, you are setting a precedent."

On the phone, Zhao Jinglun sighed: "More than 40 million investment, many live-action movies are just this number."

"Your big investment in animation movies is unique in the history of Chinese movies."

Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said: "This number is actually not high in some large-scale animation movies abroad."

"Some things always have to be done by someone. I just want to prove that China can also make well-made animation movies that are not inferior to foreign ones."

"Well said!" Zhao Jinglun's tone can be heard to be a little excited.

"If others can do it, why can't we?"

"If this "Big Fish and Begonia" is successful, it will open up a new market for domestic filmmakers and snatch Disney's business!"

Zhao Jinglun sighed: "We have been making movies for half our lives, and our thinking is fixed. You young people really need to do this."

"Zhiqiu, if you need any help, just let me know. I can't guarantee anything else. I still have some face in the Chinese film industry."

Ye Zhiqiu thanked him repeatedly, and he was a little excited.

Zhao Jinglun's promise is too valuable. On the surface, it seems nothing, but as a director at the ceiling level, his power in the domestic film industry is more than just "a little face"...

With this relationship, it may not help Ye Zhiqiu's movie increase the box office, but at least it can make many potential competitors think carefully before using "outside tricks".

After chatting with Zhao Jinglun, it was already evening when I returned to the hotel where I stayed.

After a video call with Yu Caiwei, Ye Zhiqiu thought for a while and opened a website called "Twitter" on his computer.

"Twitter" is a very popular social networking platform in the United States, which is somewhat similar to Weibo in China.

Many stars and celebrities have entered this platform. The one with the highest number of fans is a football player, with 150 million followers.

After several songs from the "Jackson Ye" EP entered the top 50 of the bulletin chart, Ye Zhiqiu also opened an account at the suggestion of Universal Music. The main purpose is to provide a communication platform that is relatively close to fans, so as to further attract fans and increase album sales.

At present, Ye Zhiqiu's account has two messages.

The first one is a brief greeting when he just registered, and the second one is a group of handsome personal photos that Universal Music asked him to put up.

- Taken while recording the song MV.

Although he does not post updates frequently, after Twitter officially added the "certification" mark, the number of fans of Ye Zhiqiu's account has increased slightly, and currently there are more than 100,000 people.

This number has not reached Universal's expectations. Recently, they are considering whether to hire a special team to operate Ye Zhiqiu's account.

Ye Zhiqiu rejected this proposal without hesitation. Although this may increase the number of fans of the account much faster, he always believes that it is better to be authentic when posting something on social media.

Some celebrities are very active on Twitter and often communicate with netizens online, which is a good way to increase the number of fans.

However, Ye Zhiqiu has no intention of doing so. In his opinion, it is too tiring to keep interacting all the time. It is best to become a content outputter and have fans come in droves.

Of course, it is not so easy to do this, but... Ye Zhiqiu thinks it is not impossible.

- He has a better way to "make it live".

Sitting at the computer desk, Ye Zhiqiu typed quickly for a while, and spent thirty minutes to send out a long article of more than 3,000 words.

The title is - "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone".

Looking at the successfully sent article, Ye Zhiqiu nodded with satisfaction.

That's right, he brought "Harry Potter" here.

This novel has been popular for more than 20 years in the past. The series of books has been translated into 73 languages ​​and sold more than 500 million copies. After being adapted into a movie, it also achieved impressive box office...

It can be said that it is a must-see work.

Nowadays, this legendary work can be watched for free on "Jackson Ye's" Twitter.

Ye Zhiqiu has watched all the "Harry Potter" movies without missing a single oneThat's it. Most of the texts published online this time were written based on my own impressions, and I didn't pursue word-for-word consistency with the original.

Although the text and word choice may not reach the level of publication, it is more than enough for online sharing and attracting some fans.

Another important reason why he chose "Harry Potter" is that the number of words in this work is not too many. One work is about 200,000 words, which is easier to control. After all, he didn't plan to update it every day like a serialized novel.

That would be unbearable, and it's enough to think about it from time to time...

He can't afford to offend the domestic readers who paid him. When he went abroad, he had to be the boss!

After all, there are more than 100,000 fans. After the article was published, it quickly received more than 100 views.

There was also an "Intersting (interesting)" comment, which was only two minutes different from the time the article was published. It is estimated that the other party didn't finish reading it and then posted it.

This is not something that can be done overnight, and Ye Zhiqiu is not in a hurry. Unexpectedly, he received a call from Shi Nuannuan, a domestic editor.

"Brother Ye, are you posting a new novel on Twitter?" Shi Nuannuan asked as soon as she opened her mouth.

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned and asked, "How did you know?"

Shi Nuannuan smiled and said, "As a professional editor, I have to keep an eye on the author's dynamics."

"Brother Ye, this is a Western fantasy style? Why did you post it directly? Don't you plan to post it on the platform? Have you considered publishing it on Orange..."

Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously, "Does Orange have business overseas?"

"Of course." Shi Nuannuan said quickly, "We have an English site overseas. It has been established for more than a year and there are still many readers."

Ye Zhiqiu suddenly realized and explained that there was no plan to serialize this work. Shi Nuannuan gave up and just reminded her very professionally that if there is a plan to publish it in the future, she must be responsible.

Later, Shi Nuannuan talked about the progress of the physical book publishing of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". The final manuscript has been completed and the book number has been verified. It will be officially released in about a month.

This work will be given there in May. More than two months is already very fast.
