Chapter 258 Hou Yehou: Did I kill me?

“Boss, I’ve done some calculations. If you take the shares of Shinhwa Publishing House and add in Kunpeng’s current industry scale, your net worth may exceed 100 billion.”

Jiang Cheng and Lin Zhibai met.

 There are many reasons for the two to meet now.

 The biggest reason is that the cooperation between Buye Hou and Shinhwa Publishing House is very smooth.

Since Hou Buye is from Kunpeng, it is reasonable for Jiang Cheng, as a representative, to meet with the president of Shinhwa Publishing House.

Can he achieve a net worth of 100 billion by controlling absolute control of Shinhwa Publishing House?

Lin Zhibai smiled. The money in this world was about the same as the soft girl coins in the previous life, so he didn't think having a net worth of 100 billion was very impressive.

 “There’s one more thing.”

Jiang Chengdao: "The post-production of Shinhwa's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has been completed, and it is expected to be promoted tomorrow, but the market situation seems a bit bad. Recently, many people have said that martial arts is dying."

 The martial arts warrior in the previous life died long ago.

 That is to say, the progress bar of this world is a little slower.

Lin Zhibai complained in his heart, but asked a question.

"How to say?"

  “It’s you who caused this matter yourself.”

Jiang Chengdao: "The popularity of martial arts has been declining in the past two years. As a result, "Zhu Xian" came out. The fairy novels on the Blue Star Chinese website became very popular all of a sudden. All kinds of fairy novels began to emerge. As a result, readers’ interest in martial arts naturally began to decrease after they came into contact with Xianxia.”

Lin Zhibai: “…”

Hauntedly I became the gravedigger of martial arts? No way, I still have a martial arts drama to air!

This wave is a bit like shooting oneself in the foot, but it is normal for this situation to happen. Xianxia has become popular, and martial arts has definitely begun to decline. This novel type is destined to go from super popular to unpopular.

think carefully…

Even without him, Blue Star would still have online articles appearing in the future, and Xianxia novels might also appear. His own appearance would only accelerate the development of online articles.

It seems that only Jin Yong can save Blue Star Martial Arts at present, and he is the kind that treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.

 “It’s not a big problem.”

Lin Zhibai smiled and said: "We just need to catch the martial arts tail."

Martial arts will indeed become popular, but definitely not now. Lin Zhibai wants to seize the tail of martial arts and let Jin Yong's martial arts shine in this world.

 As for whether the martial arts will die or not in the future, it is not an issue that Lin Zhibai needs to worry about.

 This is the inevitable development of the times. It is estimated that in a few years, martial arts novels will be hopeless, but there should still be a market for martial arts dramas.

 Novel and TV series are actually two different tracks.

Jiang Cheng felt a lot more relieved when he saw that his boss still had confidence, and then talked about what happened in Tianguang.

“Su Chan’s power in the company has become higher, and she has recently begun to reach out to the film department.”

Su Chan has indeed made great achievements after becoming the Minister of Television, so now she naturally wants to expand her power and get involved in Tianguang's film department.

 “Movie…”

Lin Zhibai found that he had been working on TV dramas and had not yet received a movie script from the system.

 Go back and help Su Chan.

Just customize the movie script yourself with the system.

 After all, I don’t know how long Tianguang’s chairman can last.

Once the other party cannot hold on and passes away, it will be more difficult for Su Chan to control Tianguang, which is not in Lin Zhibai's interests.

From the current situation, Su Chan seems to be worth investing in. Her power in Tianguang is getting higher and higher, and her hands are stretching longer and longer. Without certain skills, she would not be able to achieve this level.

 …

As Jiang Cheng said, Shinhwa released the news about the upcoming broadcast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" the next day.

 The cast is very good.

Naturally, the identity of screenwriter Bu Yehou was not forgotten in the promotion.

To be precise, "Nevernight Hou" is one of the promotion focuses of this drama. After all, Nightless Hou is so famous now. Although I am only in the third tier in the celebrity rating rankings, my influence is quite terrifying!

 As soon as the news is released.

 There was a heated discussion on the Internet!

"Let me just say that Bu Yehou is very productive. This is the third drama this year. Now I really suspect that this guy is not only bursting with inspiration, but his typing speed is absolutely abnormal, and he still has time to write online articles! "

 “It’s only been a long time since he debuted!”

 “So many works have been published!”

 “The key is that the style is also very changeable!”

“Will Bu Yehou write martial arts dramas? His previous dramas were all about modern cities, including two police dramas and one “The Temptation of Going Home.”

 “You haven’t seen “Zhu Xian”, have you?”

"After reading this book, you won't doubt whether Hou Yehou will write martial arts. Rather than saying that "Zhu Xian" is a fairy tale, it is better to say that it is an upgraded version of martial arts. The major sects in it are martial arts novels. Among the various sects here, the Qingyun Sect’s Seven Meridians martial arts competition takes the form of a martial arts conference, but the world view of Xianxia is more grand, so now I’m not even interested in martial arts.”

 “Plus one upstairs!”

"After reading "Zhu Xian" and so many fairy tale novels on the Blue Star Chinese website, I have no interest in reading martial arts novels at all. I feel that the level is too low and not interesting. I have been reading about that one. set."

 “In fact, the threshold has been raised.”

"When you look at the protagonists in Xianxia, ​​flying with swords, fighting with magic weapons, etc., and then looking at the qinggong in martial arts novels, they feel very weak. In martial arts novels, if you can break rocks with bare hands, you are a top master, but the protagonist in Xianxia novels can Splitting mountains and breaking rivers, who would be interested in martial arts after seeing so many immortal warriors like this?"

 If it was before Xianxia came out.

When netizens heard about the new drama of Evernight Hou, they were very excited and looking forward to it. However, after being exposed to Xianxia, ​​everyone was still excited and looking forward to hearing about the new drama of Evernight Hou. It was just after seeing "Martial Arts" When I read this keyword, I instinctively felt a little disappointed. Some netizens even shouted:

“Master Hou, let’s stop messing with martial arts and just make a fairy tale drama. How about adapting “Zhu Xian” into a TV series? I will definitely watch it!”

 “The best TV series to arrange Baguio’s resurrection!”

“It’s very expensive to make a fairy tale drama, right?”

“It’s not a problem for Bu Yehou. Anyway, his scripts are basically cooperating with the three major companies, and the three major companies are not short of money!”

“I heard that a company has already started filming fairy tale dramas!”

 “I heard it too!”

 “Looking forward to it very much!”

 The discussion did not revolve around the martial arts drama No Ye Hou.

People even think that the title of the drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not worth discussing.

This name is not as domineering as "Zhu Xian".

 Hurry up and make a fairy tale drama!

 …

  The TV and production departments of Shinhwa Entertainment became nervous when they saw the reactions of netizens.

 Our new drama is martial arts!

If you don't discuss "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", you should also discuss martial arts, right?

 Why are everyone talking about Xianxia!

 For this matter, the TV department held a joint meeting with the production department.

 Because this drama is the most important project of the TV Department and Production Department this year!

“The market outlook is not very clear.”

 Some high-level officials spoke up in the meeting, which caused a sigh of relief.

 “Martial arts is really not good anymore.”

“What was once the most popular category is now unable to attract netizens. Only the fans of the actors are still looking forward to it.”

 “This time even the signboard of No Yehou cannot be used.”

“It can be seen that the category of martial arts may not work anymore.”

“We have invested so much in this drama, what will we do if we can’t recoup the cost?”

“It shouldn’t be difficult to recover the cost. Even if martial arts is declining, the content of our drama is very exciting. The most important thing is that this drama cannot be as popular as the previous dramas of Evernight Hou.”

 Of course everyone will be sad.

 After all, martial arts once had great glory.

Many people in the Shinhwa TV Department and Production Department have produced and filmed martial arts dramas, and have produced many popular dramas. It can be said that they have come all the way from that martial arts era, but now they find that "martial arts is dead." , it is inevitable to feel regret in my heart.

 Some people even said:

“We should focus on fairy tale dramas next year.”

“Many companies in the industry are now preparing to shoot fairy tale dramas.”

“Nathan and Tianguang all have relevant plans.”

“There are still many people who are working on the idea of ​​Wu Yehou’s novel “Zhu Xian”.”

“That novel is very popular. If it is adapted into a TV series, it should attract many readers to watch it.”

Yes.

Many people want to buy the copyright of "Zhu Xian". Lin Zhibai also knows this, but he has not let go yet.

 Mainly considering whether to take pictures myself.

 In the previous life, "Zhu Xian" seemed to have been made into a movie, but the quality was not mentioned.

Zhao Lei, director of production, said: "The external expectations are not high, so we will find ways to use publicity to raise the expectations. I think martial arts is not dead yet, it is just not as popular as it was back then."

 “Well, increase publicity efforts.”

Lin Dong, as the Minister of Television, also has the same opinion. He has already watched "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". From a professional director's perspective, he thinks this drama can be popular.

There are always some works that can go against the market.

There are always some works that have withered and become a niche category. Occasionally, there will be one or two works that burst out with brilliance!

Although Lin Dong also felt a little emotional.

  In other words, the whole circle is feeling emotional.

 Everyone in the TV industry knows that the new mythological drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is another work of Hou Yehou, and it is also the third TV series produced by Kunpeng this year.

“Does Hou Ye kill the martial arts warrior with his own hands?”

 “Can’t say that.”

“Martial arts has indeed begun to decline in recent years. After all, martial arts novels have written everything that can be written.”

 “Can’t come up with any new tricks.”

“The immortal warrior of Bu Yehou is the last straw that breaks the camel’s back for martial arts!”

“Isn’t that just shooting yourself in the foot?”

“Haha, it’s okay to say that. I guess Bu Yehou didn’t expect that Xianxia would directly defeat Wuxia, causing his martial arts drama that has not yet been aired to be seriously affected.”

This thing is indeed funny to say.

My own martial arts drama was severely criticized by my own fairy tale novel, which can be called the best dry humor of the year in the TV industry.

 Some people even joked:

I never expected that the one who attacked Evernight Hou and Shinhwa New Drama this time was not the two competitors Tianguang and Nathan, but Evernight Hou himself!
