I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 350 Trailer Shooting

Li Peifeng also thought carefully about placing Huang Tianxuan last among the four girls.

First of all, according to the order of acquaintance, she was the last one to interact with Li Peifeng in real life, and she was also the last one to confirm the relationship. It is natural that she should be the last one to get the marriage certificate.

Moreover, Li Peifeng believed that Huang Tianxuan was the one who paid the least attention to marriage. If it were the other three, no matter who they were, they would definitely object, but Huang Tianxuan would have some room for negotiation.

Secondly, the Huang family wanted to change their first boy's surname to his mother's surname. This more or less prompted Li Peifeng to put Huang Tianxuan first from the bottom...

Regarding the above reasons, Li Peifeng believes that Huang Tianxuan is clear in his heart. Now it is just unacceptable on an emotional level, and he needs to comfort, persuade and give steps.

But Li talked on the phone for a long time, but Huang Tianxuan did not agree and even gave her own conditions.

"I will return to Beijing on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. If I am pregnant in January, I will show my pregnancy in April. Then you must marry me in April. I don't care if you are single or thirdly married at that time. In short, you will be pregnant when I show my pregnancy." You must get the certificate from me! Otherwise, I can’t tell who the father is because I’m pregnant, and I can’t explain it to my family.”

Li Peifeng clicked his tongue: "Are you too impatient? I haven't graduated yet in April, and I don't know when I will win the lottery because of pregnancy..."

"You promised me, and you, a stallion, have said before that you only need to get pregnant once, but now you can't tell the time? Is your sperm so flexible? It's all your excuse!"

After saying that, Huang Tianxuan said resolutely: "Okay, that's it. If you are good at marrying and divorcing them one after another before April, I will accept you even if you get married three times. But if you don't have that ability and are still single in April, then Just get the certificate with me."

Li Peifeng said helplessly: "Don't be so angry. You clearly know that I didn't graduate in April. According to Qingge's character, it's impossible for you to get the certificate with me..."

"That's your problem!"

Li Peifeng was silent for a moment and sighed resentfully: "So in the final analysis, I am just your reproductive tool, and children are just a means for you to obtain benefits. But if I can't give birth, will you not marry me... "

"Zhu Bajie starts a fight and beats him up?" Huang Tianxuan laughed angrily: "Are you starting to imitate women and pretend to be weak? But this trick doesn't work for me! I already agreed that you hug me from left to right, but you still slap your nose in your face, isn't it too much? ?”

During this phone call, the two chatted for more than ten minutes without reaching an agreement. In the end, they tacitly decided to wait until after the New Year to meet in person before discussing.

"When can you return to Beijing?"

"Not sure, I want to shoot a trailer for "Sword and Law", at least ten days from now."

Even if Huang Tianxuan shouted, "Does it matter if you have a baby with me while filming?" ’ Li Peifeng is not moved by words like this, because he has to make money.

Huang Tianxuan's "marriage rush" means that he and the four girls may have to advance their wedding dates. If all goes well, maybe in seven months, Li Peifeng will get married to the four of them one after another after graduation.

And Wu Wenyue's demand for a 100 million gift is imminent. Even if the other three girls don't take the initiative to ask, he will definitely give a gift. Then there are four weddings for the four girls, banquets, weddings, venues... all these require money.

On the other hand, strictly speaking, Li Peifeng does not even have his own house or car now.

A house and a car are two necessities for a man to get married. It would be outrageous if Li Peifeng still doesn't have one in the capital until he and the girl get the certificate.

Therefore, Li Peifeng, who has no house, no car, and only 4 million in savings, believes that the most important thing for him now is to make money. He must earn at least 200 million to successfully marry four girls.

As for making money, Li Peifeng has a clear plan.

Now he has two sources of income, one is coding and writing books, and the other is Trinity Studio.

The latter is developing well. The studio has signed two new actors, and both of them are profitable. Yi Wu Wenyue and He Yimeng are developing the best. They can receive six or seven advertisements every month, and the profits have naturally continued. It's rising, but the money earned has to be divided equally between the three bosses. Li Peifeng doesn't have much left in his hands. The monthly figure of more than ten or two hundred thousand is negligible.

Therefore, the bulk of Li Peifeng's income still comes from his main business of writing. Even though the many old books on women's porn under the pen name of "One or Two Winds in the World" have been completed, they can still bring him a steady stream of follow-up income.

The income from various channels such as electronic subscription royalties, physical book publishing shares, comic shares, radio drama shares, etc., all added together, is still considerable, and this is continuous income. With these capital alone, he can live on for a lifetime.

Although the longer the time passes, the less the income will be, but in the next one or two years, the income of old books will not drop off a cliff.

Li Peifeng estimates that from January to June this year, he will be able to earn an average income of 600,000 yuan per month just by relying on old books. Sixty times six months, this is 3.6 million yuan.

"Sword and Law" will be released on January 10th. Before the Chinese New Year, Li Peifeng and editor Xia Sheng made predictions. They conservatively predicted that the first order of this book would reach at least 60,000 yuan.

As long as the data of 60,000 initial subscriptions does not collapse, all 100,000 subscriptions will be just around the corner. There are only a few authors who can achieve this result on the Destination website, which can be said to be at the top of the pyramid. This also means that after Li Peifeng's "Sword and Law" was released, he updated 10,000 words every day and could get a minimum subscription fee of 500,000 yuan from the main website every month.

If you include the reward share, monthly ticket ranking rewards, and income from other small channels, and deduct taxes, the monthly income of "Sword and Law" should reach about 600,000.

Sixty multiplied by six months, another 3.6 million came.

Adding up the new and old books, he will earn 7.2 million within six months, plus Li Peifeng’s own 4 million savings, the total will be 11.2 million.

Even if Trinity's six-month dividends are included, it will not exceed 15 million. Naturally, it is still far away from the 200 million Li Peifeng needs to get married...

This is exactly what He Yimeng said. If Li Peifeng expects to make a lot of money by coding, it will be impossible in the short term. Unless he waits for the first volume of "Sword and Law" to be completed in the future, he can sell the copyright or operate the copyright himself. Make a lot of money in a film and television way.

However, time was tight and tasks were heavy. Li Peifeng could not wait until then, so he could only use [turn back time] to enter the capital market and cheat by relying on his foresight.

But it’s hard to make a fool out of nothing. Even if there is a means of cheating, it still needs enough funds for him to operate. The fifteen million he saved after six months of hard work is still a bit small. The more start-up funds, the better.

Therefore, Li Peifeng plans to make a trailer for "Sword and Law" to increase its popularity and further enhance its performance after it is released. At the same time, he can also use the traffic of this book to add more fans to Wu Wenyue and his own Douyin account. Promoting profitable growth for Trinity.

However, in order to achieve the desired effect and make this trailer popular, the quality of the video must be guaranteed.

To this end, Li Peifeng worked hard and stayed up all night on New Year's Eve. He spent all his time writing the trailer script and painting the storyboard, and it didn't end until nine in the morning.

"The completion is much easier than expected... I am indeed an artist!!"

It was Li Peifeng's first time writing scripts and drawing storyboards. He was a little timid before starting, fearing that he would not do well, but now he is quite satisfied with his results.

After all, it is just a short trailer that lasts for more than 20 seconds. There are technical difficulties, but for Li Peifeng, who is a writer and amateur painter, these two tasks are relatively simple, and it still looks quite professional to follow a cat and a tiger. look.

"Ah, are these all drawn by Brother Feng?"

"It's amazing, this storyboard is much better than what I drew!"

When Trinity held a video conference at 9:30, the employees in the studio saw the script and storyboards, and they also praised and flattered 30% false and 70% real.

Wu Wenyue also expressed her affirmation of Li Peifeng's work, and then concluded: "Now that everyone has finished watching, if you have any opinions, immediately express them and discuss with each other, so that it is convenient to modify the script. If you have no opinions, you can think about where is the most suitable place for filming. .Today is February 1st, and on the 3rd we will confirm various filming locations and start shooting."

"ah……"

"Aren't you on vacation?"

Tang Yan and the others looked at each other in front of the camera. Wu Wenyue gave a dry cough and stated the timeline for the completion of the trailer, emphasizing the urgency of the task, and finally added: "I have discussed with Pei Feng and Man Ning, and I understand everyone's concerns. Difficulties, so I decided to pay three times the salary to everyone during the holiday period. After the film is completed, each person will be given a bonus of at least 5,000, and the ticket will be fully reimbursed. And we will definitely go out this time, so we will treat it as a spring festival trip to relax .”

"oh?"

"Great!"

Everyone smiled again when they heard about the salary increase and the bonus of 5,000 yuan. They thought that it was okay to stay at home. It would also be good to go to other places to work during the Spring Festival and take a look at the scenery.

“Money is minted freedom.”

Li Peifeng said with a serious face: "I think that at our age, we still need to roll up our sleeves and work hard. We must not be content with the status quo and maintain an appropriate hunger for money. Otherwise, when you graduate with nothing, You want to marry your beloved girlfriend, but she asks you for a gift of 100 million yuan, and you can’t even get 10 million yuan out of your hands. At that time, if you tell her that you love her... is it useful? "

Li Peifeng asked and answered: "It's useless!"

After finishing speaking, Youyou sighed.

Most members of the Trinity were confused after hearing what Li Peifeng said, why did Meng Meng look thoughtful.

The main leader, Wu Wenyue, rolled her eyes fiercely: "The meeting is dismissed!"

…

After two days of discussion, everyone gradually perfected the script for the trailer of "Sword and Law", which added a new character from the book to appear, and He Yi Meng also got to play it in real life; Kitto Ivy.

She was originally the second female lead in the book, and would only appear and interact with the protagonist after 700,000 words. When Li Peifeng created the character of Kitto Ivy, he more or less based it on He Yimeng. .

A white-haired, ruthless, top-notch badass woman who is so bad that she can't help but cry...

At this time, Kitto Ivy's early appearance is a bit abrupt, but it can still arouse readers' expectations, and by the way, it makes He Yimeng popular.

After the script was finalized, three filming locations were also decided.

Ningyuan City, Chrysanthemum Island.

Sichuan Province, Western Sichuan Moshi Park.

Snow areas and Laigu glaciers.

Except for the first sea view location, the remaining two have unique geographical features. Moshi Park, with its barren grasslands and majestic black stone forest, looks exactly like the front line of the Delikuns war where the protagonist goes in the book "Sword and Law";

Laigu Glacier is one of the three largest glaciers in the world. Various forms of glacial lakes and glaciers can be seen for thousands of years. They are similar to the frosty and snowy highlands in the book, and they also fit in well with the artistic conception of the theme song.

The shooting locations are far apart, which increases the shooting cost. The team's round-trip air tickets and meals alone are a large sum, but these costs are nothing compared to the cost of special effects production.

For the quality of the special effects in the trailer, Li Peifeng specifically asked Gulinazha and contacted MOREVFX Studio, which produced the special effects for "The Wandering Earth".

I told the other party my requirements using a storyboard. There were just a few dozen shots and the total duration of the special effects was no more than ten seconds, but the price was actually 400,000 yuan. This is because the film and television industry is currently in a recession for some reason, and the special effects companies have no work to do, so they give discounts. Otherwise, people would usually charge higher prices for such small advertising-type special effects work.

Li Peifeng didn't hesitate much, and he had to agree with 400,000 yuan. He couldn't bear to let the child catch the wolf.

Here he signed an electronic contract remotely with MOREVFX, and over there Trinity employees also rushed to Ningyuan City from all over the country.

On February 3rd, Tang Yan and others arrived one after another. Li Peifeng picked them up one by one and found a hotel to accommodate them.

Among them, He Yimeng was the last one to arrive at the station, at 9:30 pm...

"How was your birthday?"

"What, I still have a birthday?"

Seeing Li Peifeng pretending to be confused, He Yimeng pursed his lips and smiled, taking out a gift box from his bag: "It's a birthday present for you, although it's two days late."

"Thank you~"

There happened to be a red light ahead, Li Peifeng put into parking gear, opened the gift box with a smile, two boxes of... Viagra? Are they all packed with ten pills?

I shouldn't have any expectations for your white-haired gift! !

Li Peifeng cursed in his heart, and handed the gift box over with a forced smile on his face: "I don't need it, you can keep it for yourself."

"Don't talk so much."

He Yimeng smiled and pushed the gift box over: "If you continue like this, sooner or later you will be unable to live without it."

"I don't know how high the sky is, but I think you need to be taught a lesson!"

"What? Are you going to teach me a lesson later?"

He Yimeng launched a provocation, took over the driver's duties, put the gear on and tried to drive.

"Don't make trouble...the light is green, and we'll be at the hotel soon."

Maybe it was because they were separated for a while, He Yimeng missed the feeling of being an astronaut, so he ate Li Peifeng's tofu without any reservation, and then regained his senses.

"Who do you plan to cast in the role of Qiu Qing? Is he coming?"

"You don't have to worry about this."

After sending He Yimeng to the hotel, Li Peifeng drove back to his home. At the same time, he picked up his mobile phone and told Zhao Qingge, one of the leading actors, the script and shooting plan;

"Your scene is in Moshi Park. It is estimated that you will meet up with us after we finish shooting the seascape scene in Ningyuan three days later. If it's okay, can I help you book a flight?"

"...Forget it, I'll go find you tomorrow."

Zhao Qingge hesitated for a moment, probably because he felt bored at home during the Spring Festival, so he also wanted to come to Ningyuan City to see the excitement.

But Li Peifeng thought more about it. He was a little afraid that Zhao Qingge would appear and He Yimeng, a clever little guy, would see through the relationship between the two, so he tactfully reminded: "Isn't it bad? The filming team is basically students from Beihua Normal University. "

Zhao Qingge asked: "Then what?"

Then... forget it, anyway, the director is just here to shoot a trailer, and the two of them have no contact in the film. Currently, there are no emotional scenes between Wang Chi and Qiu Qing in the book, which doesn't mean much. As for the future? After graduation, both teachers and students will be together in a legitimate relationship, so it won't matter anymore.

Li Peifeng hesitated for a moment and then agreed: "Then will you stay in a hotel or come to my house?"

"Am I staying in a hotel?" Zhao Qingge asked his second rhetorical question.

Li Peifeng couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I'll come home and clean your room right away."
