Chapter 643: A guy who likes to titillate people
Although Reiner used Yu Dong's name, the matter eventually came to pass.
Seeing Yu Dong himself, Gong Youli dispelled all his doubts. He also heard that the movie Reiner mentioned was written by Yu Dong, and he was even more excited: "This way, will it be easy for me to get autographs in the future?"
Already."
Seeing Gong Youli, his first reaction was to ask for an autograph in the future. Yu Dong and Lena looked at each other and smiled.
"It's easy to talk about the autograph." He smiled and said to Gong Youli. Then Yu Dong looked at Gong Su'er and said, "Little girl, what do you think? Do you want to make a movie?"
Gong Suer blinked her eyes, looked at Yu Dong, and then at her father, "What type of movie is it? What a role I have, will this movie be broadcast in the cinema in the future? Can I go in and watch the movie based on its rating?
?Am I playing a good person?"
Yu Dong raised his eyebrows in surprise. He had just thought that this little girl Gong Su'er was quite mature, but he didn't expect that she was so mature.
Especially when compared with her father Gong Youli, I feel that Gong Youli didn't think about her daughter as much as she did.
Moreover, the things Gong Suer considered were quite on point.
Reiner smiled and said to Gong Su'er: "This is a movie about family and growth. You play the heroine's childhood. The role is not many, but it is very important. If nothing else, this movie will be popular in cinemas.
You can also go to the cinema to watch it. When the movie is released, we will give you and your family some tickets. Of course, if you have some friends who want to watch it, we can give you more tickets."
"So, what I want to play is a very important but not very tiring role, right?" Gong Suer asked.
Reiner raised his eyebrows, "Your summary is correct."
Gong Suer nodded her head, "I agree."
Although she nodded in agreement, Gong Youli reacted now, "Can we read the script first? Also, can you give us some time to think about it? After all, this is the first time for us.
"
Just now, Gong Youli's mind started to heat up after seeing Yu Donghou. Now after Gong Su'er reminded him, he thought of many practical issues and started to think more.
In this regard, Yu Dong expressed his understanding, "Of course, you really need to seriously consider this kind of thing. Although I really hope that Su Er can act in this movie, I also hope that you can think clearly and have acted in this movie."
After that, there will definitely be some changes in her life, and I can’t guarantee you that this change will definitely be good. Maybe this will be the only movie she plays in her life, and she will no longer set foot in the film and television industry from now on, but it is also possible that from now on
From then on, she got involved in the film and television industry."
Gong Youli looked at Yu Dong gratefully, he could understand what Yu Dong meant.
Making a movie is indeed an easy thing, but they need to consider some of the subsequent chain reactions. He really has to go home and discuss this matter with the child's mother.
Reiner said: "I will give you a synopsis of the plot in a moment, and then we will leave our contact information with each other. I hope to get a reply within a week, okay?"
"No problem, one week is enough." Gong Youli said with a smile.

Hulk, leader of Amazon's flash printing task force, looked at today's order summary with a surprised look on his face.
"Arthur, what's going on? Why are there so many customized Chinese ones today?"
After the 40 million commemorative cards came out, there were many customized cards with Chinese characters on them, but there had never been so many as there are today, and these Chinese characters were quite long, not just one or two words like before.
Arthur smiled and explained: "Because ancient Chinese poetry is very popular on our website today."
"Why?" Hulk asked.
"Because when YU signed a book on Michigan Avenue, they gave out a lot of special signs, and these special signs basically used ancient Chinese poems. Many people got the special signs but couldn't understand them, so they went to our flash discussion area.
Talking about this matter, many people helped explain these poems, and it also made other people interested in these ancient Chinese poems. My girlfriend told me last night that she likes two lines of Chinese poems, and I don’t know how to read them.
, anyway, the general meaning is, I want to be two little birds in the sky, and I am willing to be two branches on the ground." At this point, Arthur turned to look at the Chinese Tom in their group, "Tom, am I right?
"
Tom smiled and said: "I'm only right, the 'Bi-wing Bird' is a bird in ancient Chinese legends. This bird has only one eye and one wing, and the male and female must be together to fly. 'Lianlizhi' means that two trees grow as long as
We went together. These two poems express the desire for beautiful love and are very artistic."
"Is that so? It's indeed quite beautiful." Hulk nodded.
Tom continued: "Ancient Chinese poetry likes to use allusions and symbols. There are many words like winged bird. Many beautiful artistic conceptions need to be understood in order to understand them. This is also the wonderful thing about ancient Chinese poetry."
Hulk rolled his eyes, "Tom, how much do you know about ancient Chinese poetry?"
Tom said very modestly: "It's okay, I just know a little bit."
After hearing what Tom said, Hulk directly pulled up a chair and sat down next to Tom, "Tom, I think so. Since these ancient Chinese poems have some market because of YU, we can take advantage of this popularity and continue to launch them.
More poetry cards.”
Hulk pointed to the computer screen in front of them, "Although I don't understand these ancient Chinese poems, I can tell that the customers of these customized cards are too monotonous in the design of the cards. There are always only words and no pictures.
, there is no sense of beauty at all. If this is the case, the popularity caused by YU will soon fade away."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Tom looked at Hulk and asked: "Hulk, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is very simple. We proactively select some poems with artistic conception, and then pair them with pictures that match the artistic conception to launch a package. This way we can attract more people to customize the cards. For example..."
"For example, what Arthur just said, 'I would like to be a winged bird in heaven, and a twig on earth'." Tom understood Hulk's meaning and rubbed his hands excitedly, "We can match the card with a winged bird."
With the picture of Lian Lizhi, you can also draw a couple. This card represents love. In addition to love, we can also design cards with other related themes such as family, friendship and so on."
"That's right." Hulk clapped his hands, "That's what I mean, and the most important point is that we can ask YU to handwrite the versions of these poems, so that readers can get YU's handwritten cards.
Although it is printed, it is always more attractive than other fonts.”
Arthur on the side also came over, "Also, this matter must be connected with other departments, so that they can take the opportunity to push books related to ancient Chinese poetry to the homepage."
…
The plan to use the popularity of ancient Chinese poetry to promote the card was quickly sent to Bezos’ office.
Bezos couldn't help laughing when he saw the plan given by the Flash Print Task Force.
He smiled for two reasons.
One is that the employees in the flash printing team are quite flexible in their thinking. The second is that although these employees are flexible in thinking, their thinking is not broad enough.
When Bezos saw this proposal, he was not concerned about the cards at all, but the core business of Flash Printing Company.
Now, Amazon is cooperating with Flash Printing Company to produce this commemorative card, just to promote the Flash Printing service. In the future, Flash Printing Company will not be able to survive by printing these cards.
Flash Print's main business is in personal book printing.
The scope of so-called personal books is actually very broad.
Some people have written a book and want to print it for themselves without publishing it. This is a kind of book, but of course the quantity is very small.
There are also people who take a lot of photos themselves and go to the photo studio to find someone to make a photo album, which is expensive. They can place an order through Amazon and have the photos made into a photo book by a flash printing company. This part of the business will also be the future of flash printing.
One of its main businesses.
There are also people who want some books but cannot buy them in bookstores. They can also print them through flash printing.
These types of businesses are larger than the commemorative card business and are closer to consumers' lives. They are also the core businesses of Xianyin Company.
As soon as Bezos saw the plan of the Flash Print Task Force, he thought that if ancient Chinese poetry became popular and people wanted to know more about ancient Chinese poetry, they would not be able to read those bulky, obscure professional books.
.
Instead of working hard to promote related books on the website, they might as well let Amazon do some simple editing to attract customers to print the books.
For example, for the poem "I wish to be a winged bird in the sky, and a twig on the earth", you can definitely find relevant scholars to make a few pages of easy-to-understand introduction with pictures, and it is best to include some allusions and stories.
If any customer is more interested in these two poems, they can place an order to print out these pages.
In the same way, the same can be done for other poems. At that time, customers can freely choose which poems to print out and bind them together to make a personalized book.
In this way, customers can truly experience the charm of flash printing.
Flash printing is characterized by high customization and high degree of freedom.
And if you want to do this, you must first make the software content good.
Bezos immediately formed a plan in his mind. While promoting ancient Chinese poetry themed cards, he would also find relevant professionals to create these software contents. When the popularity gradually increases, the service could be launched.
That afternoon, Bezos called Jimmy.
When he received the call from Bezos, Jimmy was preparing to go to the airport to catch a plane to Los Angeles.
"Jeff, why are you calling me at this time?" Jimmy looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time to get off work.
Bezos smiled and said: "I want to tell you something, it has to do with flash printing."
Jimmy became interested when he heard that it was related to flash printing.
Jimmy also has high hopes for the flash printing company he co-founded with Ingram.
Originally, Jimmy only wanted to sell a favor to Ingram and ask Ingram to help take down Amazon. But later, in order to tie up Deep Space Company, Ingram proposed to let Deep Space provide more funds and acquire more equity.
Deep Sky now accounts for more than 40% of Flash Print, which is basically a 50-50 split with Ingram.
After paying more, Jimmy hopes to get more from Flash Printing Company, which is why Amazon spares no effort to help promote it.
"Give you fifteen minutes to tell me what's going on. I have to catch a plane later."
"Five minutes is enough." Bezos laughed. "YU gave away a lot of special tickets at the book signing in Chicago, and these special tickets were written with ancient Chinese poems, so many YU readers began to pay attention to China.
Ancient poetry, there are many orders for commemorative cards today…”
Bezos told Jimmy the ins and outs of the matter concisely, and the whole process only took two minutes.
Jimmy nodded after hearing this, "Jeff, you are right. We are taking advantage of this opportunity to promote the real core business of Flash Print. You don't have to worry about the software content, just leave it to me.
, I will go to China to find some relevant experts, they will definitely be qualified for this job."
"I knew you must have channels, so I'll be waiting for your good news."
"No problem." Jimmy looked at his watch, "There are some things I won't tell you. I'll give YU a call."
"good."
Jimmy hung up the phone on Bezos and quickly called Yu Dong.
Yu Dong was chatting with Gong Youli and the others. After receiving Jimmy's call, he smiled and said: "Jimmy, your call came just in time..."
But Jimmy interrupted him, "I have to catch a plane soon. To make a long story short, the special sign you wrote for readers the day before yesterday included those poems. Do you still remember them?"
"Uh... I probably remember, why do you suddenly ask this?"
"Why are you asking? Let's talk in detail after we meet in Los Angeles. Now copy out all the poems you wrote and give them to me when you get to Los Angeles. Also, do you know any experts who are familiar with ancient literature?"
"You asked this..."
"My stuff, I don't have much time, so don't ask any more questions."
Yu Dong curled his lips and said, "There are many, such as Professor Yang Minru Yang who teaches classical literature in our school, and Professor Cheng Huichang from Jinling University. They are very good at studying classical literature, not to mention ancient poetry. But the two of them are now
They are quite old and retired.”
"Can I contact them?"
"Of course, what on earth do you want to do?"
Jimmy said with a smile, "You will know what I want to do when we meet tomorrow. Okay, I won't tell you anymore. I have to catch a plane. I'll see you tomorrow."
Before Ban Dong could respond, a busy signal came from the phone, and Jimmy hung up the phone.
