Growing up as a male god: After listening to the advice, I became a top-notch guy

Li Youzhi really doesn’t like science fiction as a film and television subject.

A half-hour commercial short film "Bring Her Eyes" already made him feel bald - the investment in this game was too huge!

At present, Li Youzhi has made three serious film works, namely "Super Hero", "Dear" and "Cast Away".

Among these three films, the most difficult one to shoot was probably "Super Hero";

When filming this film, Li Youzhi and his friends, Heguang Tongchen, forcibly replicated a real battlefield in the hot summer weather.

In order to film the war scenes, foreign aid was even hired from Bayi, and more than 500 kilograms of explosives alone were used.

But that's it, the cost of this one-and-a-half-hour film was only over fifteen million.

What's going on with the 30-minute commercial short film "Eye"?

The 20 million given by DaMi Technology was not enough, Zhi Ge himself added more than 2 million... That's all, and it has to be said that there are dozens of domestic brands sponsoring the props.

Heguang Selection Live Room.

Li Youzhi grinned when he saw some troll netizens making high-profile plans to make some kind of sci-fi blockbuster of their own.

"Um... I've been doing a lot of business recently, and I haven't planned any works yet. But even if there were, science fiction blockbusters are not realistic. "Breaking Through the Dark" is relatively short, and I It doesn’t cost anything to make it. For a science fiction short film like "Eye", Party A invested 20 million yuan, and I still lost more than 2 million yuan myself... The investment in this subject is too big, so I will temporarily Our abilities are really limited.”

What is the temperament of a Lezi person?

Watching the excitement is not afraid of big troubles, and the whole body is covered with backbones!

Seeing the embarrassment on Li Youzhi's face, the happy people among the more than 400,000 online netizens in the live broadcast room immediately revolted!

"I don't care! I'm already broke to buy your corn and rice. What's wrong with you going bankrupt and making a science fiction movie to repay me?"

"Woooooooo, little brother, you have changed. The boy who stood on the stage of the drama and shouted, 'This has nothing to do with fame and wealth,' is gone!"

"That's right, brother, you are very popular now, but you can't be separated from the masses! The masses are the proletarian and indebted class. You have made tens of thousands during this period. Don't you feel that there is a gap between you and us? Shoot, Shoot it for me! Hahahaha!"

"Hey! Don't go too far, you idiots. The creative style that I'm good at is low-cost, high-quality drama films and TV shows. Science fiction blockbusters are not what he's good at at all. If you make some random suggestions, he will really go bankrupt! But! Having said that, what does this have to do with me? Shoot! Hahahaha, invest one billion in me, find the most expensive stars, use the best special effects, and shoot it for me!"

Beep!

[Suggested mission (to make a science fiction movie that will dominate film history)...Voice +20199! ]

"..."

Seeing the large barrage of booing that instantly floated up in the interactive area of ​​the live broadcast room, Li Youzhi felt that he had done the wrong thing and said the wrong thing.

If I ignore it, so many barrages will drown out the barrages of the few idiots who asked me to make a science fiction blockbuster.

This fucking explanation is like Miss Ruyan's "No" in "The Nine-Rank Sesame Official"... It really excited these fun-loving people!

Minato,

Mistake!

Seeing the suggestions in the interactive area of ​​the live broadcast room becoming more and more outrageous, Li Youzhi narrowed his eyes.

Article 7 of the "Workplace Code": When your leader gives you a task that is simply impossible to complete, the best thing to do is to change the person who is mainly responsible for the matter into TA and turn yourself into a pure executor. .

For example, if you are a running tyrant and the Nine-Headed Prince Consort asks you to get rid of Tang Monk and his disciples, what should you do?

It is obviously unwise to directly go to Hard Steel to learn the scriptures from the foursome. At this time, you should first ask the Nine Prince Consort in detail how to get rid of Tang Monk and his disciples.

Then the method is compiled into an execution plan for the nine-headed prince-in-law to sign, and then submitted to the nine-headed prince-in-law's superior, the Halloween Dragon King or the Halloween Princess, or even if it doesn't work, it will be stored in the work file.

After completing all these procedures, you start fishing...

Because there are only two outcomes in this matter; there is a high probability that Tang Seng and his disciples have not been eliminated. As the specific executor, the Nine-Headed Prince Consort, the main person responsible, has nothing to do with you. There is a small chance that Tang Seng and his disciples will be eliminated... As the specific executor, your contribution is indispensable.

Thinking this, Li Youzhi took a deep breath.

Isn't it true that a group of idiots are so obsessed with Brother Zhi?

Then don’t blame Brother Zhi for being rude and unleashing Brother Zhi’s special move!

His heart became fierce, and Li Youzhi's eyes... became sincere;

"I'm really not good at science fiction blockbusters, but if you want to watch them, I can give it a try. But... I would like to ask all the netizens, how can I make a science fiction blockbuster that will go down in history?"

Studio.

Seeing Li Youzhi's humble and resolute eyes, some netizens... realized that something was wrong.

"Damn it, he's going to take it seriously! You bunch of idiots, don't raise my electronic pet to death!"

"Honey, hubby, don't listen to these idiots! Domestic science fiction is now in hell mode. You can't do it alone! This requires support from three levels: the film industry, film and television capital, and the audience and fans!"

"It is recommended that you can be unpopular but not evil. My friends, there is no science fiction soil in China in recent years. The science fiction film market has been dominated by foreign science fiction blockbusters. You idiots want this guy to make science fiction films. Are you really seeking death? !”

"Hahaha, the person above is right. The Galaxy Forum, the largest science fiction forum in the country, has closed down, and the largest science fiction magazine "Science Fiction World" has ceased publication. If you really want to make a good science fiction film, I'm afraid I have to first Start with the most basic cultivation of domestic science fiction audiences.”

"If you really want to get into science fiction, my suggestion is to stop making movies first and write a science fiction novel to try it out. Once you publish a book and see what happens, you will know what a science fiction movie will be like, hahaha ,"

Beep!

Received a suggested task (write a science fiction-themed novel). The difficulty of the task is 5 stars. After completion, you can get a C-level reward treasure chest!

Wuhu?

Seeing the new tasks that suddenly appeared on the suggestion list, Li Youzhi, who had successfully changed his identity from responsible person to executor, raised his eyebrows.

Look...this contradiction has been transferred.

This is so reliable, it’s coming!

Brother Zhi, who invested several billions in making a science fiction movie, just promised to write a book... Brother Zhi, who has top-notch literary talents, isn't that something he can get? !

During this period of time, Heguang Selection has been helping farmers. The turnover of 30 to 40 million a day is all in vain. I am thinking about developing some products of my own.

Publishing a book...is very executable!

He clicked on the newly refreshed task to pin it to the top. Seeing that today's rice was sold out again, Li Youzhi motioned to Zhuang Hongbin on the side to close the live broadcast room.

After greeting the teachers, brothers and sisters at the Agricultural College, Li Youzhi returned to the dormitory.

After integrating the talent of [Top Literary Talent], Li Youzhi's memory was greatly enhanced.

After returning to the dormitory, Li Youzhi sat in front of his computer.

This memory is not only the current memory, but also the retrieval of the knowledge and words that already exist in the mind is much clearer and smoother than before.

Looking out the dormitory window at the starry sky that was polluted by city lights and seemed a bit vague and illusory, his brain began to work rapidly.

Li Youzhi has read a lot of science fiction books, but not many of them made a particularly deep impression on him - just a few dozen.

In view of the current situation, Li Youzhi quickly made up his mind!

Today's society has entered the audio-visual era. Film, television and short videos are rapidly changing the way people receive information. In this environment, it would definitely be unwise to start a long masterpiece.

Most people don’t have the patience…or the time.

In this era where all information is received in a short and fast way, if you want to make netizens accept it, you must create a collection of short stories!

With this in mind, Li Youzhi started the field of acceleration.

As the field dispersed, he silently created a document on the computer desktop, and then shamelessly typed out a book title;

"Li Youzhi's Imaginary World"

After casually deciding on the title of the book, Li Youzhi quickly created six subtitles;

"Bring Her Eyes", "Earth Cannon", "Country Teacher", "Poetry Clouds", "Chao Wen Dao", "Wandering Earth"... That's right, I want to strip Liu's wool!

The reason why Li Youzhi chose these six short stories to compile this collection is very simple;

"Eye" is currently popular, and "Cannon" is a complement to the story of "Eye". Starting with these two works can ensure the conversion of your own fans.

The remaining four short stories can be said to include the two elements of "science fiction" and "humanities" in Liu's short stories in my memory.

Da Liu's works are actually very extreme; hard-core and extremely hard-core, such as "Chao Wen Dao" and "Mirror". And the humanistic ones are also very humanistic, such as "Chinese Sun" and "Country Teacher".

It’s too hard-core and the reading threshold is too high. And it’s too humanistic, but also like pseudo-science fiction.

So just mix meat and vegetables, and you won’t be tired of cutting leeks!

As Li Youzhi's thoughts were confirmed, the quiet dormitory was instantly filled with the sound of keyboards clicking...

In a blink of an eye, it was late at night.

[The acceleration area has been closed, it took 6 hours and 15 minutes...]

He casually closed the system prompt that popped up in front of him, and looked at the collection of short stories that contained more than 300,000 words on his computer desktop and had been revised and proofread repeatedly without even a single typo. Li Youzhi stretched himself greatly.

Seeing that the sky was turning white, he quickly took off his clothes and got into bed.

…

A night of silence.

At around nine o'clock, Li Youzhi, who was full of blood after six hours of sleep, rushed directly to the Agricultural University Publishing House with the USB flash drive in high spirits.

That's right... Agricultural University has its own publishing house.

In fact, most of the key universities in the country have their own affiliated publishing houses, not to mention first-class universities such as Qingbei People's University. These university presses have their own needs for publishing subject textbooks, and professional courses for postgraduate entrance examinations also need on-campus reference books.

But for some second- and third-tier colleges and universities, publishing houses are also necessary supporting facilities.

First, it also provides materials for professional courses. Secondly... In order to evaluate professional titles, teachers in colleges and universities have to publish collections of academic papers... The cost of publishing is very high if they go to an outside publishing house.

When Li Youzhi arrived at Agricultural University Press, it was already nine-thirty.

At this time, the freshmen and sophomores have almost finished their two classes, but the publishing house has just opened.

When Li Youzhi walked in, he saw a thin man in his forties, holding a thermos cup in one hand and a broom in the other, scratching the floor.

"Hello, teacher. Does our publishing house have a book number now?"

"Yo!"

Hearing Li Youzhi's greeting at the door, the man who looked like Fat Toutuo was startled.

Li Youzhi's popularity in Agricultural University is basically equivalent to Yua Mikami's status in the Ivy world - you may not have seen him, but you can never say you don't know him.

"Xiao Zhi! Ouch, what are you doing? Why do you need a book number?"

"Oh, I've written a few short stories and want to publish a short story collection."

Feeling the man's enthusiasm, Li Youzhi smiled modestly and explained his intention.

"Ah, ah! Yes, I don't have an ISBN! Did you bring the manuscript? I will arrange it for you right away! I will find an editor to proofread it for you in a while, register the version number for you in the afternoon, and send it to you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Printing house. How many copies do you plan to print?"

Li Youzhi grinned when he heard what this guy said so happily.

At present, domestic publishing adopts a three-review system in which the publishing house is responsible, that is, the publishing house is responsible for reviewing and proofreading the published publications. The content of the book is controlled through three processes: editor, editor, and editor-in-chief.

This process generally takes at least two weeks - if additional money is required.

When the good guy comes to your place, you just simplify it like this?

It seems that the teachers at Agricultural University are very aggressive in reviewing thesis collections...

Handing the USB flash drive in his hand to the man, Li Youzhi smiled lightly;

"I plan to print 50,000 copies in the first batch. How much will it cost?"

"Yo,"

Xu Feng, editor-in-chief of Agricultural University Press, raised his eyebrows when he heard Li Youzhi mentioned the printing quantity.

Good guy, 50,000 copies...what a big job!

"For the book number, I'll give you the same price as the teachers, four thousand yuan. For printing... it depends on the number of words you have. You have to discuss this with the printing house..."

After smiling and saying something to Li Youzhi, Xu Feng inserted the USB flash drive into the computer that had just been turned on.

Seeing Li Youzhi's document information, he smacked his lips.

"Three hundred and twenty thousand words. For you... if it's almost fifty thousand, it would be three or four hundred thousand. It depends on the quality you want. Paper, layout design, etc., the charges for these things are different. . After all, the printing factory does not belong to our school, so we can’t determine the price. We still have to wait until the typesetting is completed before we discuss the details.”

Li Youzhi was happy when he heard the cost.

Good guy, maybe books are the cheapest form of entertainment.

The cost is okay!

Why print fifty thousand? Print fifty thousand?

Give Brother Zhi a hundred thousand copies first!
