Chapter 269 - 251: Award-Winning Movie_i



There was no resistance whatsoever.

This was not only because Lin Yuan had already achieved success once, but also because the script for “The Tuner” immediately signified a small investment. Tossing five million for the successful Lin Yuan to make a new film with a small investment was a small matter for the company. At least no one would think anymore that Lin Yuan making films was unreliable.

Then, there was a third reason.

The reason was something Old Zhou discussed privately with Lin Yuan, “The film department thinks that the script for ‘The Tuner’ is very creative, of high quality, and would earn money if the production is decent. However, with the current situation of mystery films, small profits are possible, but large profits are difficult. Therefore, the company hopes that your film can achieve good reviews. Reviews are also very important for us at Starlight. If it could win awards, even better…”

“Hmm,” was all Lin Yuan responded.

He did not say much.

In fact, he didn’t even know if this film would make huge profits once produced. All he knew was that the script came with a hefty price, and usually, the system’s pricey works were usually quite profitable. He hadn’t yet come across a case where a product provided by the system ended up making a loss.

As for winning an award…

Would the trophy be made of gold?

With this plan set, Lin Yuan decided to first look for actors. He would inform the film department to initiate the project officially once the actor selection was complete. “The Tuner” required a male lead with high acting skills. After all, he would portray a blind man pretending to be sighted, a role with rich layers of performance.

It was now the second half of September.

As time went by, “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” had quite a large reader base. The manga’s update speed accelerated with the addition of two new assistants, allowing the plot to progress quickly.

Under the comment section of the manga,

many people had become accustomed to addressing the main character as the Medicine King. The term “Aphrodisiac no Soma” had deeply resonated with the audience. However, there are two sides to a coin. As the manga progressed, the comment section occasionally filled with negative voices.

“Shameless.”

“Fan service manga.”

“Poor character development.”

Fans of manga were typically young people, who were easily upset. Therefore, when the negative comments appeared, manga enthusiasts would inevitably strike back. The discourse was mainly arguments, but some rebuttals were rational.

For instance, someone criticized the character development.

In response, a fan named “Origin Source” commented: “The development of the main character in this manga is quite grounded compared to other cooking manga. Firstly, Yukihira’s inspiration in cooking isn’t from innate talent, but from pure contemplation and relentless attempt and exploration. Which previous cooking manga featured a main character who wasn’t naturally good at cooking?”

This was indeed a great setting.

Since the character is not particularly talented, the main character in this manga would lose in cooking battles. Most people tend to think that losing to a talented person is inevitable. People always cover their hearts with such excuses.

But the male protagonist wouldn’t.

He could bravely face his weakness, and defeat his opponents through constant learning. Of course, there are parts of the plot that seem to be leaps, but this is unavoidable in manga. However, the plot has done its best to make these leaps seem reasonable.

As for the fan service comment,

a user named “Sprite with Rice” responded: “For those who have read this manga, the clothes-bursting scene does not only happen to ladies, but to everyone, regardless of age or gender. Shadow treats everyone equally. Instead of adding cliched and deliberate plots, such as a young girl falling and inadvertently revealing a private place, it’s better to be straightforward and set a rule where clothes would burst after eating. It’s a direct way to deliver fanservice.”

Voicing out loud indeed.

Regardless of the love or hate for this setting, at least everyone would think of “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” when the terms “cooking” and “clothes-bursting” come up. That is a success on some level. After all, you cannot just watch anime, this is, after all, a manga.

In the anime industry on Earth,

due to voice acting, the voice actors’ interpretation usually doubles the embarrassment. Manga is actually fine, just as there are always some heart-throbbing scenes in novels. The level of “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” is within the limits, and it doesn’t deliberately hide these scenes. Lin Yuan was not very willing to deliberately modify the original manuscript, to ensure the most authentic taste, and so he sees no big deal about the resulting controversies.

In fact,

those who like this manga far outnumber those who dislike it. The current data for “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” is impressive. Just in the list of fan clubs, Silver’s alliance alone had eight fan clubs, not to mention the number of ordinary fans.

Moreover,

in more lists developed by Tribe Comics, such as the Tribe Recommendation List, this manga has grabbed high positions and the data seem to resemble that of a mainstream shounen battle manga.

Because of this,

the official Tribe account of Shadow finally broke through the 20 million follower mark. Unfortunately, this number is still far less than that of Chu Kuang and Xian Yu, whose follower counts are all in the vicinity of 60 million.

Especially the account of Chu Kuang,

due to the ongoing popular serialization of “Ghost Blows Out the Light”, the pace of gaining followers is among the top in the Tribe. This gives Lin Yuan hope for the completion of the task. After all, the goal of Chu Kuang’s pseudonym is to break 100 million followers.

At present,

Chu Kuang’s “Ghost Blows Out the Light” has been serialized into the third volume. With the continued swift updates, the sales have steadily increased. Jin Mu, as Lin Yuan’s agent, was already thinking about negotiating a new contract with Silver Blue Books.

Jin Mu’s positioning is clear.

His future position will be the shared agent of Chu Kuang and Shadow. After all, Lin Yuan’s three pen names have a great relationship, and it is not surprising for two pen names to share an agent. But Jin Mu’s performance is much stronger than that of Lin Yuan. Before, Lin Yuan stuck to the norms, while Jin Mu would think on behalf of Lin Yuan, as to how to gain more benefits for his pseudonyms.

Lin Yuan greatly supported this.

Expecting capitalists to voluntarily raise wages is less sensible than letting his agent fight for more benefits. This has nothing to do with morals; it is a very normal approach, especially as the costs for the system’s various works continue to rise.

The system will not limit high consumption.

Money is still a very necessary thing for Lin Yuan!
