Chapter 221 Three new scripts
It took Tang Shuxuan five days to call Yin Jun and agreed to translate the two books "Jurassic Park" and "The Da Vinci Code" for Yin Jun.
Yin Jun also formally prepared a contract for Tang Shuxuan, which wrote down the authority that Tang Shuxuan should have, mainly a reward of HK$50,000, plus a 10% royalty share after publication.
Tang Shuxuan has no rights and interests in the other film and television and peripheral works.
At the same time, Tang Shuxuan also has to take on the task of finding a publishing company to publish in the United States.
Tang Shuxuan is a smart person and a director. Looking at Yin Jun’s contract, she sighed a little. This kid is obviously adapted for future movies and TV series.
She has been reading two books these days and nights. The more she reads, the more she can feel what was written in these two books, which can basically be transformed into a good movie story.
Tang Shuxuan even fantasized about these two stories in her mind. While she was a little brain-burning, she also expressed her praise for Yin Jun's imaginative story and her writing style full of rigorous attitude.
This is also why she is willing to translate these two books for Yin Jun.
It can be seen that Yin Jun’s two books are not just based on imagination. Yin Jun must have referenced a large number of books and combined a lot of information to combine these knowledge about theology, code, biology, medicine, physics, etc., and wrote two books in a complete way.
Tang Shuxuan admires this writing attitude very much.
She was also a little looking forward to waiting for her to complete the translation of the novel, and after it was listed in the United States, she became accustomed to the film director and made a movie.
According to her current estimates and conjectures, the results of the two books should not be bad if they are adapted into movies.
Especially "Jurassic Park", if it is well produced, it may reach a box office of over 100 million US dollars!
Relatively speaking, Tang Shuxuan was not dissatisfied with Yin Jun's tight control of the copyright of surrounding rights such as movies and TV.
This book was originally written by Yin Jun. I just translated it according to the text, and at most it was to beautify the writing structure of the book. How could it be that it could enjoy so many rights?
Besides, Yin Jun is also generous. The translation fee of 50,000 yuan for the two books is equivalent to half of Tang Shuxuan's income as a director, and then he has 10% of the royalties. If it goes well, 100,000 or 80,000 is no problem at all, which is enough.
Tang Shuxuan has never been an insufficiency woman, otherwise she would not have been so relaxed from the Xiangjiang film industry.
Since I like these two books very much and Yin Jun gave me a very generous reward, I naturally have to complete the translation task.
As for finding a company to publish, it is even simpler. There are so many American publishing houses. As long as they are not blind, they cannot publish the two books "Jurassic Park" and "The Da Vinci Code".
Tang Shuxuan will go back to the United States in March, and add translations and other things, and it will be heard one after another. It will be around May and June.
Let’s not mention Tang Shuxuan’s side for the time being.
In the past two days, Yin Jun has been tangled by Liu Tianshi.
The reason is naturally very simple, that is, the script issue for Jiashi.
In September last year, Yin Jun gave Jiashi three scripts, namely "Falcon", "Shen Shengyi" and "The Man in the Net".
Among them, 40 episodes of "Falcon" were aired in early January, and "Man in the Net" and "Shen Shengyi" were also aired in early January.
It is now early February, and both "The Man in the Net" and "The Chen Shengyi" have 80 episodes, which means that by the end of March, the script Yin Jun gave to Jiashi will be completely played.
If Yin Jun no longer gave Jiashi scripts, Jiashi would be stunned for a moment and could not find the direction to move forward.
yes.
In early January, after Jiashi achieved a historic victory, the 10 o'clock period had the power to play TV series or variety shows.
Then Jiashi did let the producers in the station work hard to make TV series and prepare to try it out during this period.
Even if it cannot shake the strong position of "Happy Tonight", it is still a touchstone at least.
If you can get 20% of the ratings at 10 o'clock, it will definitely be a very good result. It is not impossible to adjust to 7 o'clock in the future.
From this period of time, Jiashi actually means gradually trying to get rid of Yin Jun's huge influence. Although they will not rely on Yin Jun, they hope that half of them will depend on themselves. Otherwise, it will definitely be a disaster if they rely on a screenwriter who is not their own.
Just look at Li's current appearance and you will know.
But good producers, good screenwriters, and good scripts are not so easy to get.
Not to mention before New Year's Day, Xu Ke, the most popular new generation of producers of Jiashi, has left Jiashi and joined Wu Siyuan's film company.
Now, there are three or five best producers in Jiashi, and only Xiao Sheng is the top one.
As for the screenwriter...
Ahem, don't mention it.
So Jiashi couldn't find out that they still needed Yin Jun's strong support. At least in the past two or three years, they could not get rid of Yin Jun's influence before they cultivated excellent enough screenwriters and producers.
Besides, even if they can already do their own TV series, they must work closely with Yin Jun.
Otherwise, Yin Jun turned around and went to Wireless and wrote some good scripts for Wireless. Why didn’t Jiashi kneel down?
With this idea, Liu Tianci and Shi Shaoming were looking for Yin Jun before the Spring Festival, hoping that he could come up with a few more scripts.
Except for the annual drama that promised to Xiao Sheng, which was basically a foregone conclusion, none of them got promises for the rest of the scripts.
Liu Tianci has been here to implement this matter these days.
Yin Jun knows Jiashi's little thoughts well.
If you don’t have your own ideas, then Jiashi would be too incompetent.
So Yin Jun didn't care about their little moves at all.
Besides, can you make a good script just by your Jiashi?
That would be too high-minded, right?
But Yin Jun did not think about not helping Jiashi.
Just as Jiashi thinks that it will be unstable without Yin Jun, Yin Jun also believes that Jiashi does not have its own script and may not be able to continue to consolidate its position in the past two years.
Therefore, Yin Jun prepared several scripts for them early.
The first one is of course the epoch-making "Shanghai Beach".
The classic combination of Zhou Runfa, Zhao Yazhi, Lu Liangwei and Liu Zi is the first element in performing "Shanghai. Beach".
The script adapted and perfected by Yin Jun is an indispensable success factor.
Finally, with Jiashi's strong support, with a top gold medal producer like Xiao Sheng to produce it, it will naturally ensure that "Shanghai and Beach" is better than in the previous life.
The second one is called "King of Thousand Kings".
This is definitely a classic among the classics in the minds of the audience in the 1980s.
Why is Xie Xian, the father of Nicholas Tingfeng, called the Fourth Brother?
The reason is that he starred in Luo Sihai in this TV series. Luo Sihai is called the Fourth Brother. Because Xie Xian performed so well, he will be the Fourth Brother Xie in the future.
"The King of Thousand Kings" is also the first script of Wang Jing who wrote a script alone. Of course, it is the first script of a gambling movie he wrote, and it is also the first script in Xiangjiang that specializes in gambling related.
From then on, this guy became very interested in gambling and wrote several TV scripts about Qianshu along the way. After he arrived in the film industry, the "God of Gambling" that made Zhou Runfa become the gods, and it was also the work of Wang Fatty's gods.
Because the theme of "The King of Thousand Kings" is very special and people in Xiangjiang absolutely like gambling, this theme has been popular all the time since "The King of Thousand Kings" and has become a long-lasting theme in Hong Kong TV series.
For example, the trilogy of "The Winner is King" starring Chen Tingwei and Zeng Yaqian in the 1990s continued this style and was also one of the most classic TV series ATV in the 1990s.
The third script is "The Stars Know My Heart".
This original version is a film made by Baodao. I believe many people born in the 1980s will have memories.
It is no exaggeration to say that this film is a typical "tear gas". It is so cried to death, but it is constantly willing to accept the destruction... Such a typical memory is already a life impression of people in the 1970s and 1980s.
At that time, the mothers and five children all became popular all over Asia. Although in the end, only the cuteest and cute old five "Xiao Binbin" was the one who made us remember the most, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that this film is a classic treasure island TV series that has sensation all over Asia.
When a company does TV series, it cannot always be a model.
If TVB has been just doing costume dramas, how could it be that Jiasi, Li and ATV could be forced into a desperate situation?
On one side, they were holding Jin Yong Opera and Gu Long Opera as weapons, and on the other side, there were also urban fine products such as "Shanghai and Beach", "Thousands of Water and Mountains", "New Senior Brother", "I Am Kind", etc., and the two swords were launched at the same time. This is the way for wireless to flourish.
So Yin Jun added this Baodao TV series that should have been aired in 1983.
At the beginning of the year, Yin Jun was planning to give only these three movies.
It’s not that Yin Jun is unwilling to give it to him, but that he would give too many TV series at once, which would seem too unworthy.
Yin Jun is willing to rise again, but Jiashi is too strong, but it is not in line with Yin Jun's interests, which will increase the difficulty of his acquisition.
Besides, Jiashi is willing to make a try on it by themselves, so let them try it on their own. Anyway, with Yin Jun here, they can't be as pitiful as Li.
Now it is beautiful, but it’s just a pool of stagnant water!
After Liu Tianci called for several days in a row, Yin Jun gave him these three TV series.
After getting it, Liu Tianci did not go back to the company directly, but took it there and read it.
It took only an afternoon to see this.
After he got Jiasi back, the senior officials of Jiasi also discussed while reading the script and stayed up all night.
The next morning, Liang Shuyi called over and agreed to Yin Jun’s asking price.
"Shanghai Beach", 60 episodes, 15,000 episodes per episode, 15% of the foreign land share.
"The King of Thousand Kings" 60 episodes, 15,000 episodes per episode, 12% of the foreign land share.
"Stars Know My Heart" 60 episodes, 15,000 episodes per episode, 12% of the foreign land share.
This price is actually not high compared to Yin Jun's current drama itself.
With "Wulin Waizai" and "Bao Qingtian" as the foundation, and with "Chu Liuxiang" coming out of the sky, it is impossible to get a script for Yin Jun again.
In addition, Yin Jun has also begun to make efforts in the movie scripts, and his income is very high.
If you want to compete with the film company for Yin Jun's script, Jiashi can only choose to increase the price.
Yin Jun has a friendship with them, but the market price is the market price. Everyone must respect the principle of cooperation in order to continue to cooperate for a long time.
(I was going to have a rest today, but I didn’t ask for monthly tickets, so the man just threw more than 100 copies here. Why are you so embarrassed? Just work hard and get the third update! Thank you! By the way, please subscribe, please support the genuine version!) (To be continued.).
