1469【Beach Ranger】

After Xia Tian finished dinner with Lang Meyer and others, he returned to the hotel he stayed alone. He called Zhao Yazhi first, and chatted with the baby for a while before he was about to take a shower and rest.

At this moment, the phone ringing suddenly rang.

When Xia Tian picked it up, he heard it, but it was Wang Qixian who called it.

"Brother Tian" she shouted sweetly.

"Hey, Xiaoxian, why do you have time to call me? Do you don't have to film today?" Xia Tian asked with a smile when he heard this.

"My play was completed yesterday." Wang Qixian said.

"Is that so fast?!" Xia Tian said in surprise when he heard this. In his memory, he still felt that "My Savage Girlfriend" had just started filming.

"It's not so fast, it's been filming for more than two months." Wang Qixian said, "Brother Tian, ​​you forgot that this drama started filming in October."

"Ah, I remembered it." Xia Tian patted his head.

Because during this period, too many things happened, such as stock market crashes, acquisition of Columbia Pictures, etc., the summer ignored this movie and thought it had just been filmed.

"People say that noble people forget things. Brother Tian, ​​you are rich now and your memory is not good." Wang Qixian teased with a smile.

Xia Tian couldn't help but smile when she heard that.

"By the way, Brother Tian, ​​when will you go back to Hong Kong?" Wang Qixian asked again.

"Oh, I can't go back for a while." Xia Tian frowned when he heard this.

He just took over Columbia Pictures, and this was just the first day, and he still had to be busy with a lot of things. At least, he had to wait until Columbia Pictures got on track and the situation improved before leaving with confidence.

"Oh." Wang Qixian was suddenly disappointed when he heard Xia Tian say this.

"What's wrong? Do you miss me?" Xia Tian asked with a smile when she heard her mood was depressed.

"Yes." Wang Qixian nodded shyly.

It has been more than a month since summer went to the United States. They had never been separated for so long before, so she really missed summer.

"I miss you too." Xia Tian couldn't help feeling warm when he heard this, "Let's do this, although I can't go back to Hong Kong to see you, you can come to the United States to see me."

"Well, won't it disturb your work?" Wang Qixian hesitated again.

"Don't worry, with you here, I'm more motivated!" Xia Tian said with a smile.

"Then I will take the earliest flight over!" Wang Xianxian said happily when he heard this.

...

After hanging up the phone in the summer, he took a bath and rested. He had to accumulate energy and strive to revitalize Columbia Pictures.

While he was resting, the appointment approved by Columbia Pictures' board of directors this morning was found by many well-informed media and published overnight. The next morning, the news had spread throughout the country and quickly spread to all parts of the world.

"The Fusang people's great failure! Shaofu Morita spent a lot of money, but only got two director seats, and failed to get a position of real power. It's really a failure!"

"The Chinese guy's frustration! Xia Tian, ​​who had hoped to win the new chairman of Columbia Pictures, lost the opportunity to win the throne because of his wrong decision, and finally only won the position of chief art officer. Can anyone tell me what this is?"

"The victory of the Americans! The small shareholders who were originally at a disadvantage, through their unity and cooperation, defeated the despicable plans of the evil Chinese and Fusang people, and successfully defended the purity of Columbia Pictures! Let us applaud these cute small shareholders!"

American newspapers, magazines, radio stations, talk shows, etc. all reported on this matter extensively, and there was a hint of gloating in the articles and words.

After seeing these reports, Long Mayer couldn't help feeling ridiculous.

These ignorant idiots thought Xia Tian had failed, but they didn't expect that they had already built the plank road openly and secretly traveled to Chen Cang, and had quietly taken over the company.

This time, they were just trying to ridicule Xiatian and were not wary of him at all, and just fell into Xiatian's mind. Now he can safely and boldly develop Columbia Pictures without worrying about boycotts from the outside world.

...

After returning to the company in summer, I continued to write my own script.

By noon, the general trunk had been written, and the remaining lines needed other screenwriters to fill in.

Although Xia Tian speaks English, he does not understand some popular vocabulary, proverbs, etc. in American society. Even if he writes a dialogue, he has no American flavor. Therefore, he decided to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses and hand over the lines to other screenwriters.

After writing the script of "Sniper Telephone Booth", Xia Tian was considering what Long Mayer said yesterday. He also thought it would be better to make several American dramas and sell them, such as the episode "Growth Without Troubles" produced by Columbia Pictures now can sell for $1.5 million in one episode.

Based on the twenty-five episodes of the American TV series in a season, a TV series can earn nearly 40 million US dollars, and even if the production cost is excluded, it can earn 10 or 20 million US dollars. What's more, the TV series can be sold to cable TV stations, which is another huge amount of income. Of course, such a wealth cannot be missed easily.

Xia Tian is now considering which American drama to produce. Speaking of which, he has watched a lot of American dramas in his previous life.

Because when he was in college, he happened to be the hottest time for the four American drama kings, "Prison Break", "Lost", "Hero" and "Twenty-Four Hours of Counter-Terrorism".

At that time, everyone in the dormitory was proud to watch American dramas. I felt that I had never watched a drama that was so well-produced, so exciting, ups and downs, making me unable to stop. Therefore, people in the dormitory waited for the subtitle group to update online every day. There were also good English listening skills, so I watched "raw meat" directly.

Influenced by classmates, I have watched a lot of American dramas in summer. Emotional things like "Looking at the City" and "Desperate Housewives"; comedy things like "Everyone Loves Raymond", "Everyone Hate Chris", "Big Bang Life", "Two and Half a Man", and the immortal works "Friends"; youth things like "New Leap Beverly", "Gossip Girl", "Skin"; crime things like "The Spiritual Book", "The Law Enforcer of Heaven", "Crime Investigation Office"; horror "American Horror Story", "Evil Force", "The Walking Dead"; magic games of "Game of Thrones", "Vampire Diaries", "Green Fairy Tales"; science fiction "X-Files", "Edge of Crisis", "Agents of S.H.E.L.D.

However, although he has watched many American dramas, few are suitable for filming now.

In my previous life, there were special effects to help, so many American dramas are really great in the scenes, and the picture effect is no less than that of movies. For example, "Game of Thrones", the level of sophistication can even be compared to some blockbusters.

But computer special effects are not yet developed now. If you dare to invest in such dramas in summer, you must lose money. So you must find some dramas that don’t require special effects and can be filmed now.

In this way, you can try to make emotional dramas like "Fathers in the City", "Desperate Housewives", sitcoms like "Friends", "Everyone Loves Raymond", as well as crime-related "The Magical Detective", "Crime Investigation Office", etc.

"Do I want to shoot "Friends" now?" Xia Tian couldn't help thinking.

That series is a classic American sitcom, Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chand, Phoebe, Joey, who will not fall in love with these six people after watching this series.

This drama was filmed for ten consecutive seasons, not only causing a sensation in the United States, but also widely popular all over the world. It is recognized as one of the most successful and influential American dramas in history. The American "Television Series" magazine named the top 100 American dramas in history in 2007, and "Friends" topped the list.

I still remember the last season of the summer, where six starring actors paid as much as $1.2 million per episode. Actors can make so much money, which shows how much money the drama is sold.

It is said that the drama is still popular all over the world, and every time it is broadcast, the production company will charge another copyright fee, which is equivalent to raising a chicken that can lay golden eggs.

Xia Tian became more and more excited as he thought about it. He couldn't help but want to write the script of "Friends" immediately and let people quickly take it to film. He used "Friends" to practice English in his previous life and still remember many of its lines. Therefore, it is very simple to write the script, and it is not difficult at all.

But the most difficult one is not the script, but the six leading actors are difficult to find.

"If it weren't for Jennifer Aniston playing Rachel, David Swimmer playing Ross, Matthew Perry playing Chand, Lisa Kudd playing Phoebe, and Matt LeBron playing Joey, then would "Friends" still be so classic?" Xia Tian was deeply puzzled about this.

In his heart, the six actors have become one with the six characters and are completely inseparable. If they change, they will feel something is wrong.

"Forget it, don't make "Friends". It's really bad to ruin the classics." Xia Tian shook his head and said.

"Friends" is of great significance to him. It is not just an American drama, but also represents his youth. He does not want to ruin that beautiful memory.

"Forget it, I won't film "Friends", but what are I filming?!" Xia Tian frowned and suddenly his eyes lit up, thinking of the American drama "The Beach Ranger" that Joey and Chand often watch.

"The Beach Ranger" is also known as "The Coast Life Saving Team". The biggest pleasure of this drama is the beauties who are wearing swimsuits running on the beach. They are extremely erotic and extremely tempting.

Because Xia Tian is a fan of "Friends", he once looked for this drama. He knew that this drama was starring David Hasselhoff, and he was once a male god in summer when he was a child, starring in the classic American drama "Knight".

The drama "The Beach Ranger" has been filmed in total for eleven seasons. Not only Joey, but Chander likes to watch it, but many people like to watch it.

"If you film such a erotic and hot American drama now, I believe it will definitely attract a lot of viewers." Xia Tian couldn't help thinking.
