Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 91 Beautiful Susan
"Ah!"

In Li Wannian's office, Li Wannian sneezed loudly.

"It's strange, it's been a few days, why is your cold still not gone?"

Li Wanshui on the opposite side took a step back and said in confusion with a hint of disgust.

It happened that at this time Chu Hong came in with two glasses of water, and immediately blushed when he heard Li Wanshui's words.

The two of them, who had tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time in the past two days, were inseparable, so their interactions about love naturally became more frequent.

However, although Zhong Chuhong fell, she still chose not to make it public in order to avoid other people's criticism.

But don’t tell me, this is another kind of stimulation!

"Illness goes away like a thread, it's not that easy to recover from!"

After blowing his nose, Li Wannian said with a thick nasal voice.

"That's true. Pay attention to your health recently and don't work too hard!"

"It doesn't matter. I know my own body well. Brother, why did you call me here today?"

When Li Wanshui saw this, he didn't say anything more and got down to business.

"Ah Shan told me that the performing arts company has been established and asked me to arrange for a few people to go there. I talked to a few of them. This is the information of the selected people. Take a look!"

With that said, Li Wanshui pushed the document bag he had put on the table in front of Li Wannian.

"You and your second brother can just settle such a trivial matter, you don't need to tell me!"

"You'd better take a look to prevent any mistakes!"

At Li Wanshui's insistence, Li Wannian reluctantly took the document bag and opened it to read.

The people selected by Li Wanshui are very comprehensive, including managers, producers, agents and other talents. There are more than ten people.

"what?"

When he turned to one of the pages, Li Wannian's hand stopped.

"Wang Xinwei, 24 years old, assistant producer, graduated from Gezhi Academy..."

"what happened?"

"Oh, it's okay, I saw my classmates!"

Of course, what surprised Li Wannian was not that this person was his schoolmate, but that this person's English name was: Amy.

Could she be Amy who holds the "King of Heaven Training Course"?
Of course, Li Wannian obviously misunderstood this point. This Amy is not that Amy.

In the history of the original time and space, this sister Amy was a famous producer of TVB, and many famous actors were her disciples, such as Zheng Jiaying, Tang Shiyong, etc.

However, Li Wannian didn't understand this and got confused directly.

But it was precisely because of the confusion that I looked at her a few more times!
"Are you talking about Amy? I've also noticed that she has very good abilities, and she's self-recommended and very smart!"

Unexpectedly, my school is really talented!
"There's nothing wrong with the list. The people you selected are all outstanding, brother. They won't affect the normal operation of the TV station, right?"

"Of course, I took this into full consideration when I selected people."

"Then I'll have no problem."

Li Wannian put the documents in his hand back into the bag and handed them back to Li Wanshui.

Li Wanshui hesitated for a moment after taking it, and then said: "Actually, the TV station does have some difficulties at the moment."

"What's the difficulty?"

Li Wannian was a little curious. His elder brother's management ability was far better than his own. He actually asked himself questions?
"With the completion of "Hong Kong Love Story", several other TV dramas on the TV station have never achieved the previous results. The TV station's production department is very worried about this!"

When Li Wanshui spoke, Li Wannian immediately reacted. No wonder the eldest brother asked himself, it turned out to be a production matter. "So what's the TV station's plan?"

Li Wannian did not express his thoughts immediately, but planned to listen to the TV station's thoughts first.

After all, such a large TV station cannot rely on one person.

"They still want to start with your comics! In their minds, your comics are just like Jin Daxia's novels, which guarantee ratings!"

"Are any of my other comics suitable to be adapted into TV series?"

Now Li Wannian was really confused.

There are really not many comics that I am currently serializing that are suitable for TV series adaptations.

TV series such as "Bleach" and "Gundam" are very big scenes and have many special effects. It is inevitable that they will not be able to make back their money.

"Parasite" and "Pokémon" are not suitable for adaptation into TV series due to subject matter issues.

As a result, Li Wannian really doesn't know which comic they want to adapt?
"They want to adapt the book "Chinese Master Chef"!"

"Little Chef God?"

Li Wannian never expected it to be this one.

The comic book "The Little Master of China" has indeed been adapted into a TV series. Li Wannian remembers reading it when he was a child.

At that time, He Lu Bu's role as Ah Fei really kept Li Wannian out of action. He was always afraid that he would kill his opponent with a move of Cloud Pavilion Palm in the next second!

However, other aspects of the entire TV series are pretty good, and the ending is quite happy, much better than the ending of the comic.

At that time, Li Wannian also thought about using the ending of the TV series to modify the ending of the comic, but in the end he gave up and chose the more suitable ending of Xiao Fugui.

Now that he heard that the TV production department wanted to adapt this comic, Li Wannian's first reaction was that it was feasible, but after thinking about it carefully, he still said: "It's not suitable!"

"Why? Because it's a costume?"

"Not only because of the costumes, but the main reason is that the conditions are not mature. Even if it is filmed, the ratings will not be too high!"

Not to mention that it would take a lot of special effects to restore the cooking scenes. Even if it were restored, the cooking competition would not be as intense as the martial arts. The original TV series was well shot and the ratings were not that high.

There is no problem in filming such a TV series as an ordinary TV series, but if it wants to become a ratings-resistant work like "Hong Kong Island Love Story", it will definitely not work!
"Then what good advice do you have?"

Since Li Wannian vetoed it, Li Wanshui did not persist. In terms of creation, Li Wanshui has always been at ease with Li Wannian.

"Have any of you seen Pretty Susan?"

""Beautiful Susan"? Oh, I remember, a comic from the magazine?"

"That's right! That's the one!"

"But its results are not good!"

"Beautiful Susan" is a youth comedy comic serialized by Wang Sima in "Two-dimensional Youth Weekly". It mainly tells the story of Susan, a young white-collar beauty, in the workplace and in love.

Because the story is more down-to-earth and mature, in the usual surveys of "Shounen Weekly", the popularity of this comic ranks at the bottom of the magazine.

However, for comics, this book is too mature, but for TV series, the style is just right.

And because it is a modern drama, it can just use the experience accumulated by the TV station.

"Okay, let me tell the production department! Let's see what they think about it?"

When Li Wanshui manages, he adheres to a philosophy, which is to leave professional matters to professional people. He, a layman, will never give random opinions!
"By the way, do you want to watch TVB this afternoon?"

"What are you doing watching TVB?"

"The cartoon of "Dragon and Tiger Gate" is about to be broadcast!"
