Chapter 328 Member Activities
“Escort agency?”

Chen Yuan looked at Zhou Yinan’s script carefully and was absorbed in it without realizing it.

It is a very traditional martial arts drama, but Zhou Yinan has incorporated many elements, taking the common escort agency as the theme, and involving chivalry in the martial arts world, the joy of revenge, and the idea that every citizen is responsible for the rise and fall of a country.

It elevates the entire drama to a higher level.

“Every boy born in the 1980s and 1990s has a dream of being a martial artist. When they grow up, they realize that the martial arts they dreamed of were already in their childhood.”

After reading the script, Chen Yuan let out a long breath, as if he was letting out the martial arts spirit in the script.

I haven’t felt this way for a long time.

Martial arts seem to have remained in childhood. Although there are people who keep trying to recreate the style of martial arts, there is not much market for it, whether in novels or film and television.

The decline of martial arts is an indisputable fact.

But it does not mean that martial arts have no market. People born in the 1980s and 1990s still have a martial arts dream in their hearts. Good martial arts works can still ignite the martial arts dreams of a group of men.

“Clap.”

Chen Yuan picked up the cigarette box on the table, lit a cigarette, and savored the taste of the martial arts scripts and the martial arts online movies of later generations.

There is still a very large market.

For example, the blind man series, and the escort agency itself has a series.

“I hope Zhou Yinan can write a good martial arts series for the online movie.” Chen Yuan whispered while exhaling smoke. Although he had an excellent script in his mind, he did not intend to show it.

Try to let Tong Mo and Zhou Yinan carry these tracks alone.

“I’ve read the script.”

After finishing his cigarette and putting it out in the ashtray, Chen Yuan opened the message sent to the screenwriters group.

Tong Mo and Zhou Yinan seemed to have been guarding their phones all the time. As soon as Chen Yuan sent the message, the two of them popped up in the group, waiting for Chen Yuan’s comments.

“Let’s talk about Tong Mo’s campus drama first. The rhythm and plot are very good, which is suitable for the online movie market. We can set up a project and set up a crew.”

Chen Yuan didn’t beat around the bush and told the result directly.

“Thank you for your affirmation, love you~”

Tong Mo was very excited and sent several emoticons such as “thank you”, “love you”, and “mua” in the group.

Once the script is approved, the project and crew are established, it not only means that the work task is completed, but also that there will be very generous royalties and bonuses, and even subsequent box office dividends.

What’s more important is recognition and the joy of being competent.

“Next, let me give you some suggestions.” Chen Yuan paused for half a minute to give Tong Mo some time to absorb her excitement, and then continued to send messages in the group.

Tong Mo: “Boss, please give me some advice.”

Chen Yuan: “It’s not really advice, it’s just a small suggestion. You can try to extend this campus drama into a series, using elements such as transferring schools and joining classes as provocations, and using differences in local culture as jokes.”

Tong Mo: “Boss, your suggestion is good. The ending of Campus Storm is leaving school, which can be extended to transfer schools and open up a new battlefield.”

Tong Mo was very excited.

Chen Yuan’s suggestion opened his mind, but the premise was that he wanted to see how the first part would perform. If the first part did not perform well, there would probably be no second part.

And since it is a series, there must be a connection between the beginning and the end. If the filming adaptation is too drastic, the plot of the second part may not be able to connect.

Therefore, the focus now is still on setting up the crew and shooting for the first film.

“Okay, after the finalization, take a few days off to relax your body and mind, and clear your mind. Once the crew is done with their vacation, we’ll set up the project.”

Chen Yuan accepted Tong Mo’s idea.

The screenwriting department has its own work requirements. You have to finish the manuscript when you need to, and you have to rest when you need to.

“Old Zhou, your “The Desert Knight” is also good. We can also set up a project and form a crew.” Chen Yuan tagged Zhou Yinan in the group and told him the result directly.

“Really? Boss?” Zhou Yinan was pleasantly surprised and shocked, as if he couldn’t believe that a martial arts script could be approved.

He originally thought that online movies were an emerging industry, so he wanted to try martial arts dramas to see if there was room for development, but he still didn’t dare to hold out too high expectations.

After all, the current film and television industry is no longer dominated by martial arts dramas, and the market is even pitifully small. Even though online movies are a new industry, they are still in the film and television entertainment industry, and I’m afraid their recognition is very small.

Unexpectedly, the boss approved it directly and expressed his intention to set up a project crew on the spot.

Such efficiency and results are hard to believe.

“Martial arts dramas can be made. With the responsibilities of the escort agency, grudges in the martial arts world, and national justice as the main themes, it is entirely possible to make a series. But there is a key point in making martial arts dramas. The storyline should not be too clichéd, and the martial arts scenes should be simple, crude, smooth and entertaining.” Chen Yuan tagged Zhou Yinan.

When I watched martial arts dramas in the past, I really believed that the characters in the dramas were martial arts masters who could fly over eaves and walls, walk on mountains and wade through water. But the martial arts dramas nowadays are all about wire suspension and posing, without any unnecessary movements.

It looks fake at first glance, without any artistic conception.

There are also martial arts fighting scenes, which are just like playing house. Do they really think the audience are fools?
“I see. When I write a martial arts drama, I naturally want to reproduce the martial arts in my mind. I can even follow the crew and follow the entire filming process.”

As long as Chen Yuan approves, Zhou Yinan will definitely work hard to create his own martial arts series. As for the last sentence, it actually means asking Chen Yuan for power.

After all, he is just a screenwriter and has no right to interfere with how the director shoots the film.

He didn’t want the martial arts movie he had in mind to be ruined.

“Yes, when the director team has set up the crew, I will communicate with them. The screenwriters of Yucheng Film and Television can follow the crew and have the right to make reasonable filming suggestions to the director.”

There is some supervisory power, but not much.

“Thank you, boss.”

Zhou Yinan and Tong Mo were extremely grateful.

Yucheng Film and Television not only offers generous remuneration, but also great authority. Without any other restrictions, they are confident that they can create a series.

After chatting in the group for a while, Chen Yuan exited the page and put down his phone.

Tong Mo and Zhou Yinan are talented. If possible, Chen Yuan is willing to train them and let them take up the banner of the screenwriter department.

After talking about the script, it was almost twelve o’clock. Chen Yuan did not stay up late today. He went to bed after washing up.

At around seven in the morning, Chen Yuan opened his eyes as the alarm went off, got dressed, got out of bed, washed up, then went downstairs leisurely humming a song.

Go to bed early, wake up late, and feel refreshed.

After having breakfast in the dining area, Chen Yuan returned to his room. He was not in a hurry to edit the script. Instead, he boiled a pot of water to make tea, then took out his mobile phone and opened the fishing ground member group.

Start a topic.

“Boss, when are you free, let’s have a membership event.”

Although it was early in the morning, the group quickly became lively as Chen Yuan brought up the topic.

“Oh, Boss Chen finally remembered us members.”

“I thought Boss Chen forgot about the membership event.”

A few of the immortals in Chongwo were making fun of him.

Some members also asked about the content of the event.

“The specific content has not been determined yet. I’m going to discuss it with everyone to see how the bosses want to play. Chen Yuan Fishing Ground will definitely cooperate with us.” Chen Yuan edited the message and sent it out.

“If Boss Chen says so, I suggest we hold a member grand prix.”

“That’s a good idea. We’re not greedy. A total of 1.8 million for the championship prize is enough.”

“There’s a consolation prize for the last place, 100,000 or 80,000 is not too little.”

puff~
Chen Yuan was holding the teacup, blowing on the tea leaves on the surface, taking a sip happily, and waiting for feedback from the group. However, he almost spit out his tea when he saw the messages from his group members.

A million or eight hundred thousand is enough. Eight hundred thousand is not too little.

Why don’t you go and rob it?

“Dear bosses, turn right when you go out and choose any of the four major banks.” Chen Yuan replied in the group. These guys are really rude.

“Hey, Boss Chen has a job in one of the four major banks?”

“Go in and report Boss Chen’s name.”

The group members continued to joke.

“You can try it, but I can’t guarantee that my name will work.” Chen Yuan joked.

“Apart from anything else, Boss Chen’s name should still be useful in Chong City. If the four major banks don’t obey, I’m afraid they won’t be able to gain a foothold here.”

“Without further ado, are there anybody who wants to form a team and give it a try? With Boss Chen backing us up, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

“Let’s see what kind of activities Boss Chen can come up with first. If the activities are good, maybe we can let him go. If not, hehe~”

Damn it.

Threaten me, how dare you threaten me so unscrupulously.

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the message in the group, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he quickly edited the message, “Wait a moment, I’ll go see how much money is left on the membership cards of the bosses.”

“???”

The group members were all confused.

Then it broke out.

“Fuck, Boss Chen is going to deduct our membership fee.”

“The damn thing needs to run away.”

“Brothers, gather at Yucheng Village and capture Boss Chen alive.”

“We took down our beloved fishing rods and our oversized fishing boxes, and showed Boss Chen what membership means.”

The group was bustling with activity. After playing around for a while, they returned to the main topic and talked about the activities of the fishing ground members, all of whom had good suggestions.

After discussion, the content of the membership activities was finally determined.

The sooner the better. It’s the end of the year and everyone is busy, so the event date will be tomorrow.

As for the content.

“The first membership activity of Chenyuan Fishing Ground will start on time at 12:09 on the morning of the 30th of this month.”

“The theme of the event is free fishing, fish are free.”

“The first event is the Small Pond Crucian Carp Fishing Elite Competition, which starts at 9:30 a.m. and ends at 11:30 a.m. The first, second and third place winners will receive a set of exquisite gifts prepared by Chen Yuan Fishing Field, including a Chen’s first-generation continuous fishing rod and three bags of Chen’s all-killing bait.”

“The second activity is the Datang Mixed Fishing Qualifying Competition, which starts at 13:12 p.m. and ends at : p.m. The first, second and third place winners will also receive a gift carefully prepared by Chen Yuan Fishing Ground. The gift is a monthly pass for Chen Yuan Fishing Ground, which allows unlimited fishing in the pond. The validity period starts from the th of this month and ends on the evening of the th of next month.”

“The third activity is the Laotang silver carp and bighead carp competition, which starts at 3pm and ends at 5pm. The champion, runner-up and third place winners will be upgraded to member benefits, and will enjoy a 30% discount on fishing grounds, including all projects in Yucheng Village, including the hot spring park and the ice and snow world.”

“After the fishing activity, all members are requested to move to the dining area for meals.”

“Note: In addition to the gifts for the fish pond activities, Chen Yuan Fishing Ground will prepare a beautiful fruit gift box for all members, and family members are welcome to bring along.”

When the complete content of the event was released to the member group, the members became excited again.

This activity is quite powerful.

The theme is fish set free.

This means that the catches of the fifty members can be handled freely. You should know that there are many experts in the member group, so they will suffer a lot of losses in this wave.

Not to mention the prizes for the first, second and third place winners.

The bait for the fishing rod is just a few hundred yuan.

Monthly passes are more valuable.

In particular, the membership card benefits have been upgraded from 20% off to 30% off, and the benefits brought over the years are absolutely amazing.

Each member also receives gifts, has dinner in the evening, and can even bring their family members. This is very thoughtful for them, even taking their family aspects into consideration.

“Boss Chen is really spending a lot of money.”

“Boss Chen has always been particular about the quality of his membership, and this time he has given the membership a lot of respect.”

“Without further ado, I’m going to ask for leave now. This crappy class is pointless. I’ve already booked the championship for Santang tomorrow.”

“Leave, I don’t have leave here, I just skip work.”

The members in the group were chatting happily.

Chen Yuan chatted for a while and then left the group chat.

In fact, the membership activity at the fishing ground seems to be very powerful, but Chen Yuan has actually considered it carefully. Except for the freedom of the fish, the other prizes are not that explosive.

Three fishing rods and several generations of bait are not worth much money.

As for the customized monthly card, it is also time-limited. It happens to be the month before the New Year, the busiest time at the end of the year, and we also have to rush to the Spring Festival. How much time do we have to fish?

Only the upgrade of membership card benefits is quite significant.

But the better the treatment, the more cost it will have, and they will become more solid customers.

In general, the intensity of the activity can only be said to be acceptable. It is worth becoming a founding member. After all, they are the first batch of customers in the fishing ground and also the most solid customer base.

Feedback is necessary.

“Hurry up and finish the manuscript.”

After exiting the group chat, Chen Yuan started his computer, opened the script of the third part of The Taoist Comes Out of the Mountain, and continued editing with a cup of tea and a pack of cigarettes.

At noon, Chen Jun delivered the lunch boxes on time.

The fish pond was not very busy, and Chen Jun was not in a hurry to go over, so the father and son ate next to the computer desk.

“By the way, Dad, if you are free this afternoon, please help me pick some fruit. There will be a membership event at the fishing ground tomorrow, so please prepare a fruit gift for everyone.”

While Chen Yuan was eating, he remembered the benefits of the fruit gift box, and suddenly looked up at Chen Jun and said.

“There’s an event tomorrow?” Chen Jun was a little surprised.

Member activities are discussed in the member group, not in the fishing ground group, so Chen Jun doesn’t know about this yet.

“Well, I said it in advance last month. Now that there is still some time before the Spring Festival and the members are not too busy, let’s do the event first.” Chen Yuan said as he took big mouthfuls of his food.

“Members really need to give back. I’ll go pick some fruit this afternoon. Fifty portions, right?” Chen Jun nodded and asked.

“Yeah.” Chen Yuan responded.

“Your movie has been completed. When will it be available online?” After talking about the fruit gift box, Chen Jun curiously inquired about the situation of the online movie.

The movie has been finished. We’ll know whether it’s a mule or a horse only by taking it out for a spin.

Everyone is looking forward to the results.

“If nothing unexpected happens, it will be either the end of the month or the beginning of next month, depending on the efficiency of post-production.”

The post-production efficiency of online movies is extremely high. It basically takes less than a month. If you work overtime, it may be online by the end of the month.

Normally it will be online at the beginning of the month.
