Dad's Entertainment Life

Chapter 11 Mutual Efforts

Lin Yitong hugged Niuniu with one arm and pulled the quilt with the other, nervously listening to Lin Qirong telling the story of Snow White, caring about Snow White's fate.

She didn't understand anything about stepmother or magic mirror, but she knew that Snow White was a very beautiful and popular girl.

Because whether it is the queen or the hunter, the dwarf, the prince likes her very much.

She also wants to be such a princess.

Lin Qirong finished telling the whole story, but saw Lin Yitong still looking at him with wide eyes.

"What's the matter? It's time to sleep."

Lin Qirong stroked her silky hair and smiled.

"Dad, Snow White is very beautiful, many people like her, right?"

"Yes, Snow White is very beautiful and kind, so everyone likes her."

"But why doesn't the queen like her?"

"Because the queen doesn't like other people to be prettier than her, so she treats Snow White badly."

"Oh." Lin Yitong nodded, his eyes sparkling, "Father, can I be a princess in the future?"

Sure enough, the charm of Snow White is irresistible to all little girls.

Lin Qirong secretly smiled, and patted her little head.

"You are a little princess now."

"Really?" Lin Yitong's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Of course. You are very beautiful, cute and well-behaved. Not only Dad likes you, but Uncle Qiao Feng also likes you, and everyone we meet during our walk likes you very much, right?

So you are already a little princess. "

"Whee!"

Lin Yitong pulled the quilt to cover his face, and smiled happily.

"But to be a princess, you need to do better, such as sleeping obediently."

"Ah."

Lin Yitong dropped the quilt, revealing her little face, and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, close your eyes now, will Daddy sing to you?"

"Good. Good night, Daddy."

Lin Yitong smiled sweetly at him, and closed her eyes obediently.

"Good night."

Lin Qi opened the system, purchased the elementary children's song skill, and clicked to learn.

Soon a large number of singing skills and some nursery rhymes appeared in my mind.

Buy one get one free, awesome.

Lin Qirong quickly chose a nursery rhyme and tried to sing it with the newly learned skills.

"The dark sky is low, the bright stars follow, the insects are flying, the insects are flying, who are you missing..."

His voice was very deep, with a touch of magnetism, and he sang the song "Insects Fly" in a low voice.

As he sang in a low voice, Lin Yitong slowly fell asleep, still holding Niu Niu in his left hand, with a smile on his lips.

Maybe for her, today is a particularly happy day.

"call."

Seeing that she was indeed asleep, Lin Qirong stopped.

Looking down and seeing her exquisite facial features and the smile on the corner of her mouth, I couldn't help feeling warm in my heart.

Many things happened today. I transmigrated into this body, had a daughter out of nowhere, and was kicked out by the landlord. It was really bumpy.

Especially the first time to bring a child, lack of experience, it can be said to be exhausted physically and mentally.

But seeing her peaceful face at this moment, the exhaustion in her body seemed to disappear.

He now understood why his former colleagues were so happy when they mentioned their daughter.

Because it feels really good to have such a lovely daughter.

……

After being stunned for a while, he finally calculated today's harvest.

The novice gift pack is 1000 Daddy Points, a total of 1000 Daddy Points is obtained by completing two emergency tasks, and 1200 Daddy Points are obtained from six daily tasks. Today’s income is a total of 3200 Daddy Points.

The expenditure is not small. It costs 1200 points to learn the four primary skills, and 1000 points to buy Grimm's Fairy Tales.

So the final remaining points are 1000 points.

Fortunately, these skills do not need to be purchased repeatedly, but only need to be continuously consolidated in daily life until they reach the standard for upgrading.

I still need to persist in completing daily tasks every day, and it takes about a week to earn about [-] daddy points, which are enough to redeem a four-star script.

But this is already very good, Lin Qirong is very content.

……

Gently closing the door, Lin Qirong came into the living room with his computer.

Qiao Feng happened to be drinking a can of beer, and when he saw him coming out, he also threw a can of beer over to him.

"So Young Master Qiao also drinks beer?"

Lin Qirong took the beer, opened the pull ring, took a big gulp and said with a smile.

"Otherwise what do you think I should drink?"

"Shouldn't you rich second generations drink foreign wine or red wine slowly?"

"Please, I won't do this, and those rich second generations don't do this often."

Qiao Feng rolled his eyes at him, "I just like drinking beer, it's fun."

"Ok."

Lin Qirong sat down at the dinner table and asked while turning on his laptop.

"How is your work doing? What kind of script?"

"It's not a job arranged by my superiors, but I'm actually looking for it myself."

Qiao Feng came over and sat down opposite him.

"You know "Happy Running"?"

"Of course, how could it be possible not to know?" Lin Qirong said angrily, "It's Red Maple TV's ace variety show, and the TV station's biggest cash cow. Even if I leave, I'll pay attention to it, okay?"

"Happy Running" is a popular variety show produced by Red Maple TV. With stars, outdoor reality shows and funny content, relying on high-quality hosts and guests, it was very popular once it was launched.

Every season broadcast can firmly occupy the top three in the ratings list, deeply loved by the audience, and also favored by many advertisers, it can be described as the cash cow of Red Maple TV.

"Since this is the case, you know that this season has been in trouble until now. The ratings and word-of-mouth have dropped sharply. If there are no accidents, it is very likely that the next season will be suspended."

Qiao Feng's words were astonishing.

Lin Qirong was surprised. He really didn't pay special attention to it, and naturally he didn't understand its condition.

"It's impossible for the TV station to just let it fall down like this. You must know that it is very difficult to produce such a variety show again."

Qiao Feng nodded, "Yes, so Taili is already thinking of a solution.

Both the word-of-mouth and ratings of this show have declined, mainly because of aesthetic fatigue, and the audience is tired of the fixed routine.

No matter how hard the host and guests try to be funny, and how the program crew come up with new tricks, they can't break out of the old pattern.

Coupled with the impact of other TV programs, there will be a sharp decline in this season. "

"So you want to try it?"

Lin Qirong asked.

Qiao Feng didn't hide his intentions.

"In fact, we all understand that the key to a program is the script, even for variety shows.

Without a good script to set the entire tone, no matter how hard the stars perform, it will be in vain.

In order to save the ratings this time, it can be said that the station has made great determination. "

He stretched out a finger.

"A bonus of 50 yuan, plus the position of screenwriter of the "Happy Running" team."

"50?" Lin Qirong was taken aback, and indeed made a heavy investment.

"What is 50 yuan?" Qiao Feng said disdainfully, "Compared to the income of each season, it is a drop in the bucket."

"Of course you don't care." Lin Qirong smiled, "What you care about is the chance to enter that team, right?"

Qiao Feng admitted frankly, "Yes, I just want this position.

You know my ideal is to have all the stars cooperate perfectly with me and perform wonderful works together.

So far, variety shows are the most suitable for me.

Although "Happy Running" is not the perfect program in my mind, it is a great platform and springboard.

That's why I want to give it a go. "

"If you want to, then work hard, it's good."

Lin Qirong nodded, this is Qiao Feng, who always knows what he wants and works hard for it.

"I just want to jump out of the original routine and write a script that will refresh the audience. It is too difficult. I still have no clue."

Qiao Feng took a big gulp of beer and said angrily.

"Okay, don't talk about me anymore, what about you?"

"Due in tomorrow, that's all."

Lin Qirong pointed to his computer, which contained the original script written by Lin Qirong.

Qiao Feng leaned over and looked at it carefully for a while, then quickly moved his eyes away and shook his head.

"First-class writing, old routines, this shouldn't have come from your pen."

Lin Qirong smiled softly. In fact, he felt the same way.

This is a family ethics drama, a very old-fashioned plot.

The husband cheated on the mistress, even if the gentle and virtuous wife swallowed her anger and tried her best, she couldn't save her husband's heart.

So his wife began to transform, from a gentle and virtuous woman to a shrewd and capable professional woman, and created a career with the help of her friends.

It was only after the husband lost her that he deeply discovered her goodness. He was even more amazed by the transformed her, and his position wavered again, and he wanted to get her back.

The plot develops in the triangle relationship centered on these three people and other characters around them.

In the end, it was naturally a harmonious and beautiful ending. The husband's prodigal son turned around, the wife chose to forgive her husband, and the mistress left in despair.

As Qiao Feng said, it is a very old routine, but it is the routine of the most mainstream family ethics drama on the market today.

Family ethics dramas, idol dramas, martial arts dramas (costume dramas), and heroine dramas are the most important genres in the Chinese TV drama market.

Of course, the anti-Japanese drama is indispensable, which is regarded as a genre of fantasy drama by the audience.

Lin Qirong was noncommittal about this.

"No one asks the truth again, but the routine wins people's hearts.

The needs of the market, the needs of the audience, and the key is the needs of the employer. I have to follow this routine to write, otherwise I will not get paid, and Tongtong will have nothing to eat. "

"But you told me that."

Qiao Feng said incredulously.

"As a screenwriter, you should create and lead the market trend, open up new areas, rather than follow the old ways."

"Life is forcing, what can I do?"

Qiao Feng was silent for a while, and then said, "Brother Rong, there is no way for you to continue like this, you have to change to be successful, otherwise you will never be able to make enough money as a ghostwriter.

It is also impossible to bring superior learning and living conditions to Tongtong.

How about this, if you concentrate on creating an excellent script, how about I introduce you to an investor?
I know you don't want to ask for help, but for Tongtong's sake, I think you should think about it.

Believe me, you have the ability, this is the best way out. "

"Thank you." Lin Qirong touched the beer can gratefully, "I also want to change, and I'm going to do it after the manuscript is handed in tomorrow.

Then I will trouble you to help me. "

"That's great. I'm afraid you won't accept my help."

Qiao Feng said in surprise.

"I might have refused before, but who am I to refuse now?"

Lin Qirong smiled lightly.

"For Tongtong, I am willing to change myself, let's start today."

"I believe you can succeed."

"Thank you."
