Chapter 78: Just a bunch of clowns
As soon as Lin Yicheng's blog post came out, it was like a manifesto to fight against the enemy, sounding the clarion call for the charge.
Various media, celebrities, and many netizens also refuted and denounced those public intellectuals.
Especially netizens, although they are silent most of the time, they represent the voice of the masses.
In recent years, with China's entry into the WTO, rapid GDP growth, and successful bid for the Olympic Games, the Chinese people's national self-esteem and self-confidence have further increased.
Perhaps some people have been deceived and brainwashed by those public intellectuals, but they are a very small minority.
Most people are dissatisfied and disgusted with public intellectuals.
In the past, they had no channels to speak out and no leaders, so they didn’t have many ways to express their dissatisfaction.
Even if refutations are made on forums like Tieba, they are sporadic and not large-scale, and will not cause any harm to public intellectuals.
This time, Lin Yicheng took the lead in the charge, and the group naturally found their backbone.
So what are you waiting for? Just follow along!
……
Don't underestimate Lin Yicheng's influence, especially among young people.
He has countless fans of his songs, books, and movies, and these people happen to be the main force of netizens.
The power of idols is enormous, and these people are willing to contribute their own strength for their idols.
What's more, this time their idol said what they always wanted to say and did what they couldn't do!
Under the secret command of Grand Commander Zhao Feiyu, netizens launched attacks in a targeted, planned and rhythmic manner.
All-round and three-dimensional, blitzkrieg, human-wave warfare, networking and formalization...
As a result, those public intellectuals were beaten back step by step. On blogs, forums, bulletin boards, etc., as long as public intellectuals appeared, there would inevitably be countless netizens denouncing and cursing them!
This time, they finally experienced what it felt like to be submerged in the vast ocean of the masses.
By the afternoon, with the demise of some official media, the dust had settled and the public intellectuals had been completely defeated!
Some well-known public intellectuals’ accounts were banned, and some extremely disgusting posts and comments were deleted...
The public intellectuals are like rats crossing the street. They can only hide in the stinking ditch, lingering on, dreaming of the next opportunity to make a comeback...
Although Lin Yicheng did not do this on purpose, he reaped great benefits in the end.
There is no need to say more about the recognition and support above.
His personal reputation among the younger generation has once again risen to several levels.
Even some older people who don't go online and don't pay much attention to current affairs have once again deepened their impression of Lin Yicheng.
These people's impression of Lin Yicheng is very simple and plain.
They knew that the young man who could write books, sing, act in movies and even appear on the Spring Festival Gala did a good thing and scolded some people who had nothing better to do and even forgot their roots!
And this group of people, because they have experienced so much, have the deepest feelings for their country and nation.
This time, Lin Yicheng resonated with them and gained their recognition.
……
It was mentioned in the "News Broadcast", performed on the Spring Festival Gala, and this time.
It can be said that at this time Lin Yicheng's national popularity has surpassed that of Zhang Yimou and others.
Let’s not talk about the long-term impact these will bring, let’s just talk about the benefits they will bring to Lin Yicheng in the short term.
The movie "Man Jiang Hong", as the source of this incident, is known to countless Chinese people, and I don't know how many people are looking forward to the release of this movie.
They wanted to see what the movie was like that could frighten the public intellectuals so much and cause such a stir.
In this way, a lot of advertising expenses were saved and better advertising effects were achieved.
……
After returning to Beijing, Lin Yicheng did not rush to do the post-production, but began to deal with the company's affairs.
Call Liu Mingjun to the office and listen to his report on several projects of the company.
"The Secret History of Kangxi", in which Xinghe Film and Television participated in the investment, has been completed and is waiting to be broadcast.
Since they only invested 15% and have no say, Galaxy Film and Television Company only needs to wait for the show to be sold before dividing the money.
The filming of "The Good Times of Daughter-in-law" is almost finished, and post-production will begin in about a week at most.
Beijing Satellite TV contacted Liu Mingjun several times for this drama, hoping to obtain the first broadcast rights.
In addition to Beijing Satellite TV, Shanghai Tomato Satellite TV and Zhejiang Blueberry Satellite TV are also interested.
On the contrary, it was Mango TV of Hunan Province, which had been cooperating with us before, that did not take the initiative to contact us.
They have no shortage of good dramas. Although Lin Yicheng is the producer, supervisor and screenwriter of "The Good Times of Wife", he is not the director or the lead actor after all, so it is not attractive enough to Mango TV.
So Lin Yicheng decided that if the price conditions of the three companies were similar, he would give priority to selling to Beijing Satellite TV.
It's time to cooperate with the local tyrants.
Of course, if they offer too low a price, that's another matter. "Naked Wedding" is currently being broadcast on several TV stations for the third time, and the corresponding funds have already been deposited into the company's account.
Lin Yicheng took a rough look and found that the second and third round copyrights, audio-visual copyrights, and Internet copyrights were sold for 2000 million.
The overseas copyright surprised Lin Yicheng a little. He originally thought that the TV series would be a flop in Southeast Asia and would only sell a few melons and dates at best.
I didn’t expect people to be so interested in it, and the response after it was broadcast was really good.
Especially in island countries and South Korea, where housing prices are higher, "Naked Marriage" makes the audience there feel involved and identified.
Because Lin Yicheng had made a miscalculation at the beginning, the price of these overseas copyrights was set lower, and the total sales amounted to 1500 million.
Adding the initial 3000 million, the TV series "Naked Marriage" sold a total of 6500 million.
The total investment was only 700 million, with 500 million in sponsorship, and the company actually spent 200 million.
The return on investment of more than thirty times is terrifying.
Lin Yicheng himself didn't feel much about it. He had gotten used to it after experiencing it once in "Hello, Old Times" last time.
Liu Mingjun is different. He has been in Huace for so many years and participated in so many projects, let alone such a high return ratio, not even three times.
One can imagine the shock he felt from the success of "Naked Marriage" this time, and he was glad that he chose to join Galaxy Film and Television Company.
There is undoubtedly more potential and money to be made here!
……
After reading the information about existing projects, Lin Yicheng began to look at the scripts and projects received by the company.
Although he didn't have much hope, Lin Yicheng still sighed after looking through the options and finding that none of them were worth investing in.
"By the way, what did the Shanying Center say?" Lin Yicheng looked up and asked.
"I was just about to report this to you, but they refused and were very tough, with no room for negotiation."
"They started preparing last year, they have no shortage of investment, and it will be broadcast on CCTV-1, so..."
Although Liu Mingjun did not continue speaking, Lin Yicheng already understood.
To put it simply, they look down on Galaxy Film and Television Company, and they don't need its money.
The play produced by Shanying Center is "Crossing the Guandong".
It is also a coincidence that in this life, they still found Zhu Yawen to play the role of Zhu Chuanwu.
When filming "Man Jiang Hong", Zhu Yawen mentioned this matter and Lin Yicheng kept it in mind.
Then he called Liu Mingjun and asked him to contact Shanying Center to see if he could participate in the investment.
"Forget it. For now, you should focus on "The Good Times of Daughter-in-law" and then see if there are any projects worth investing in."
In this case, Lin Yicheng no longer forced it. Even if the deal failed, the friendship still existed.
Then, he wrote down in his notebook that "Nirvana in Fire", "The Pretender", "A Flowing River", "Ode to Joy", etc., these TV series will have nothing to do with Noon Sunshine in the future...
Thank you all for your monthly tickets, recommendations, rewards and comments.
It’s all thanks to you that this book can be included in the new book list.
I really don’t know about it being put on the shelves. Don’t ask me, I want to ask too.
I received a message from the website today saying that I won the first round of PK and will enter the second round.
I have updated less frequently these days, so please don't keep up and give me some time to catch up, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to read the third round.
Maybe the plot is a bit bland, not as attractive and gimmicky as other works.
I wanted to drive a car, but my skills were limited and I was checked.
I wanted to talk about some inside information, but they accused me of being sensitive or slanderous. It was so annoying.
How can it be considered defamation? They can do it but I can't say anything about it?
Therefore, some content can only be mentioned briefly and superficially.
Just like the content I posted today, there are actually many things and many people that can be written about. When I originally conceived it, this was a climax and I wanted to write 4-5 chapters.
The two sides fought back and forth, and allies took sides one after another, ready for a big wave.
Then the protagonist cut off the source of the problem and threw them all out in the sun, and finally the official media made the final judgment.
By the way, clean up and purge some people, such as some so-called experts, beasts, and anti-counterfeiting fighters.
As a result, I found that this and that were not allowed, so I was annoyed and deleted most of the content.
I hope the listing will be better.
I am still confident in my writing skills, so I can increase the scale a little when the time comes.
