Chapter 2362

Less than 48 hours have passed since the "grand theft one" was killed. From physical strength to energy, and then to the sense of weariness in artistic creation, Lan Li's ankle is deeply entangled, and his soul is slowly eroded in the invisible dark corner of his heart. No one knows when it will break out.

Or it will not explode at all.

It's all new to Langley. He needs to grope and explore by himself. Now he is just trapped in a state of tiredness and confusion. Maybe he can relax after a few days' rest; But maybe if we slow down, things will get worse... He doesn't know.

Starting from the choice of actors, he did not expect that he would be able to reach the present height, and he always enjoyed the scenery of this journey. No matter what happened next and what risks, he was willing to open his mind and take the initiative to meet, and he loved his life.

Therefore, tired to tired, blue Li or let himself divert attention, Andy revealed between the lines of worry, let blue Li smile.

Andy also realized that he was a bit wordy - with lanli's personality, not to mention now, it used to be the same. He nodded when he liked and refused when he didn't like. He never compromised or hesitated, but caring was chaotic. Lanli's current situation is the first time, so it's hard to avoid worrying.

"I know, I know. Just like at the beginning, you don't like Raytheon, and you don't like me, so you won't easily nod your head and promise things, right? " Andy also rarely expressed his dissatisfaction, for the original look at the cottage, it seems that he is still worried, did not forget.

Langley did not refute, so frankly admitted the "charges.".

Andy noticed Rooney's curious eyes. He turned his head. "Don't ask. The only thing I can say is that the young master in front of you can't be easily manipulated. This time, even Katherine Kennedy, in order to calculate him, went around a lot to achieve her goal. "

Lu Ni is full of smile, "you are not the first day to know him, otherwise, how do you think the name of 'mischievous devil' comes from?"

Andy's eyes fell on Rooney and said meaningfully, "danger! Girl, danger! You are unconsciously falling into the trap of Langley The look of sincere words made Rooney laugh, and the slightly serious atmosphere eased.

Turning his head, his eyes fell on lanli again. Then Andy said, "last week, Alexander and Andre attended a high-end cigar party and met some very interesting... Friends." For the word "friend", Andy is still a little cautious. After all, not everyone can be called a friend.

"One of them is the head of business development at BBC television. I'm not sure if you know that BBC has its own online subscription channel. " Andy threw out a small question, caught the confusion in the eyes of Langley, and he understood the answer. "In a word, we discussed the development prospect of online streaming media - obviously, neither the British nor the BBC believe in streaming media."

Andy omits the tedious narration and goes straight to the conclusion.

In fact, in terms of commercial development of films and television, Britain is far inferior to the United States, including drama.

Although Europe also has the world's top Sky TV, France's fourth, German satellite TV one and European news, these cable TV stations also have their own set-top boxes and subscription channels; But business development, business innovation and so on have not been able to take the lead in the world.

As for online streaming, that's even worse.

After entering Europe, Nafi encountered the same Crusade and resistance from the traditional media, from television to movies, and even once linked the keywords of "shoddy manufacturing" and "destroying art" with Nafi. When the market feedback profound commercial value, Nafi has successfully established its foothold.

So, Langley was not surprised by what Andy said.

If it was in the past, maybe Langley would discuss two sentences and complete the communication with Andy; But today, lanli didn't seem to wake up. He just nodded his head and said nothing more.

Andy doesn't mind either, and speaks very fluently by himself. "But BBC TV is very keen on expanding its business coverage. They need to subscribe to the channel online. In the original words of the senior manager," other people do it, so we have to do it. ". They are also very difficult now. "

"So I mentioned what Sisyphus was trying to accomplish. Later, Alexander met each other again. In short, he found Andre and wanted to cooperate with Sisyphus. But the cooperation mode is quite special. They are willing to put the copyright of BBC series on Don Quixote channel, and then cancel the BBC's own online subscription department, but on one premise... "

Speaking of this, Andy deliberately pause for a while, only to find that both lanli and Rooney are calm——

BBC！ That's the BBC! If we can put all the BBC's drama resources on Don Quixote channel, it is basically equivalent to a treasure house!

This business may be worth more than ten billion dollars!

Of course, for the BBC, they can pay dividends through copyright, but they don't need to spend energy on the half dead online subscription department. This is tantamount to "putting the dusty things in the warehouse on display in the museum to earn tickets", which is a business that only makes money but doesn't lose money.

Just as Star TV has leased its film library to Netflix before, they own the copyright of Disney and Sony. When star TV, Disney and Sony realize the epoch-making significance of online streaming media, they can reclaim the copyright at any time and then do it by themselves.

Now it's the same with BBC. Therefore, objectively speaking, it is not so shocking.

Nevertheless, the calm of blue and rouge still made Andy feel discouraged and make complaints about it. "Well, you are not willing to cooperate with a suspense atmosphere, which is really boring."

Rooney chuckled. "So, what's the premise?"

"The premise is that they want to work with us to produce a series and put it on Don Quixote channel to see how it works. If the audience number can exceed 3 million, BBC is willing to sign a contract with us." Andy spoke out the result in one go.

If such a figure is not reached, there is no need for the BBC to waste time and risk.

Langley was a bit surprised, but seriously, Alexander and Andre can't be underestimated, while the BBC is empty handed. The distribution of interests in the cooperation agreement is the real key problem. So, if the BBC is willing to tentatively give Sisyphus a chance, there's no need to make a fuss.

"They want to work with me?" Lanli finally spoke.

Andy nodded in the affirmative, "they still want you to be a producer, preferably a leading actor, and then they gave me a project on hand to ask for your opinion."

Lenley nodded to make it clear: relying on his appeal to attract 3 million viewers on the streaming media, from the BBC's point of view, it's really worth trying - the 3 million here is not the number of hits on the pipeline; It's the audience who actually pays to subscribe to Don Quixote channel. In other words, the online channel must attract more than three million users, or one million users who are willing to watch the works of lenley three times.

After receiving a positive signal from Langley, Andy said, "now the temporary name of this project is" bodyguard ", which is related to anti-terrorism operations."

"Bodyguard"? The eyes of Langley are bright. Is it the excellent TV series of BBC in 2018 that broke the highest rating record in ten years?

If it's that series, it's really worth trying. The hero is a soldier who suffered from PTSD. After leaving the battlefield, he became a key member of the London police protection bureau and went to protect the home secretary. Because of different political opinions, the bodyguards had to face fierce conflicts.

But with Andy's brief introduction, Langley realized that it wasn't that drama - the whole concept system was very close, but the key elements were missing.

"Bodyguards" can create miracles of ratings, topics and word-of-mouth, which is closely related to the year of "2018", because the world pattern has changed greatly, from the refugee problem to a series of national conflicts——

In 2016, the U.S. presidential election burst, the brexit referendum in 2016, the change of British Prime Minister in 2016, followed by Germany, France and Italy are also facing the impact of mainstream ideology... And so on, from Europe to Asia to North America, even South America and Oceania are no exception, the global "climate" is changing, Terrorist attacks, nationalism and other topics are causing more and more discussion. Every country must face a series of chain reactions brought about by the changes of the times.

Then the "bodyguard" appeared.

The whole series is not so much about anti-terrorism as a reflection of the whole world pattern. The outbreak of domestic and foreign troubles has led to the escalation of conflicts. In addition to the endless social problems, the original contradictions have also begun to intensify. After all, those politicians are only competing for interests, which has a profound impact on the common people.

The male protagonist represents the civilian people who suffered from the war, while the female protagonist is considered to allude to the later British Prime Minister Theresa May.

Under the collision of all kinds of favorable weather, location and people, it not only creates a topic for the drama, but also changes the depth, breadth and thickness of the drama.

Now it's only 2015, and the world pattern is worrying, but it's far from being on the surface. This also makes the story framework of "bodyguard" still the same outline, but the actual content is far from reaching the level of "strike hard". Although lanli has not seen the script now, it can be speculated that the quality should still fall behind.

Bodyguard is a great show, but it shouldn't be in 2015 or 2016.

"... what's your opinion?" Andy can read the eyes of Langley, he interrupted his words.

"The topic of keeping pace with the times is very interesting, but now the heat is still not mature enough. We should wait another two years to see where the world pattern will go. I believe that the creative team can also inspire different sparks of inspiration." Lan Li is honest.
