185,Jin Yong(2/3)

As for the comic adaptation rights of Jin Yong's novel, Chu Huan sent people to still talk to Jin Yong, but looking at the current trend of negotiations, Chu Huan still has to go find Jin Yong in person.

"Anyway, I'm not in a hurry for you to start drawing comics right away. I've always believed that real success can only be achieved after making the most complete preparations!"

Chu Huan finally gave a speech to the two of them.

When Kamikura Yasuo and Tomioka Masaru heard what Chu Huan said, what could they say? Apart from their admiration for Chu Huan, they could not think of anything else.

In fact, Chu Huan also wanted to review their ideas first. There is a big difference in the style of painting between Hong Kong comics and Japanese comics.

This requires Yasuo Kamikura and Masaru Tomioka to slowly integrate.

In addition, Chu Huan also needs to see Tomioka Masaru's ability. After all, the story he is going to come up with is a very classic comic work.

Chu Huan would rather it came out later than let Masaru Tomioka ruin it.

After handing the fantasy comics to Kamikura Yasuo and Tomioka Sheng, Chu Huan left.

Yasuo Kamikura and Masaru Tomioka also started a busy life.

Masaru Tomioka dove into the fantasy manga library and began to read novels seriously, while Yasuo Kamikura flew between Japan and Hong Kong.

But what satisfied Chu Huan was that every time Kamikura Yasuo came back, he would bring several Japanese painters, and painters from Xiangjiang were also recruited in an orderly manner.

As for Chu Huan, it was during this time that he made an appointment with Jin Yong.

Today, Jin Yong has become famous. Just last month, after finishing the serialization of "The Deer and the Cauldron", Jin Yong officially announced in Ming Pao that he would no longer write new novels from now on.

This caused a huge sensation in Xiangjiang.

There are many opinions about the reason why Jin Yong sealed his pen.

Some people say that Jin Yong no longer writes martial arts novels because he has already written all the martial arts novels in his mind. If he writes more, he will inevitably repeat his previous routines.

Some people say that Jin Yong's "The Deer and the Cauldron" is already the pinnacle of martial arts novels, and even Jin Yong cannot surpass it, so Jin Yong chose to retreat bravely.

Some people say that Jin Yong is dissatisfied with the novels he wrote before and plans to revise them again.

But in Chu Huan's view, Jin Yong actually made enough money.

When Jin Yong wrote martial arts novels, it was not his own interest at all. It was first for survival, and later it was to save the poorly managed "Ming Pao".

Now, although "Ming Pao" is not the newspaper with the highest daily sales in Hong Kong, it still has great influence.

Jin Yong no longer needs to worry about writing novels.

As for what follows, Jin Yong will revise his previous novels countless times, which is nothing more than Jin Yong being praised by everyone and becoming a highly respected martial arts master.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking back at it at this time, Jin Yong may have felt that what he had written before was not worthy of his status, so Jin Yong began to publish revised versions continuously.

But what about the result!

It’s not like Chu Huan has never read Jin Yong’s revised version of the novel, so it’s okay not to mention it!

After gathering his thoughts, Chu Huan walked into the Ming Pao Industrial Building.

Jin Yong's secretary was already waiting here. After seeing Chu Huan, he took Chu Huan to Jin Yong's office.

There are various books on the mahogany bookshelf, and then there is Jin Yong's desk. This is Jin Yong's office.

Full of literati atmosphere.

But the most attractive thing is the picture hanging on the wall written by Jin Yong himself. See through, let go, and be at ease. The heart of others, the heart of gain and loss, the heart of reputation and praise, the heart of favor and disgrace are all like passing clouds. Let go of them gently.

also.

"Mr. Chu's arrival is a welcome one from afar!"

Jin Yong stood up to greet Chu Huan personally.

Since he is a newspaper maker, Jin Yong naturally knows Chu Huan better than ordinary Xiangjiang citizens.

Now Chu Huan's status is worthy of Jin Yong's rise.

"You're welcome, Master Jin. I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything!" Chu Huan said with a smile and cupped his fists.

Seeing Chu Huan giving him a fist salute, Jin Yong was stunned for a moment and then laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Chu is too polite. I heard that Mr. Chu, Gu Long and Shangguan Chen jointly founded a martial arts magazine in Taiwan to provide Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts magazines."

I admire you very much for your continued life!"

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sat down at each other.

"Mr. Cha, you must already know my purpose of coming. If Mr. Cha is still dissatisfied with the conditions proposed by our company, just bring it up. I will try my best to meet Mr. Cha's requirements!"

Chu Huan preached straight to the point.

Jin Yong smiled and said, "The conditions offered by Mr. Chu are already very good, and there is nothing dissatisfied about them."

If you are not dissatisfied and you still don't agree, do you want me to come to you in person to show your status? Chu Huan smiled and said, "Because I have been busy with my studies, it is my fault that I was not able to visit Mr. Cha in person."

Jin Yong said, "Mr. Chu has overthought it. The reason why I haven't agreed to Mr. Chu's conditions is actually because I have some questions in my mind and I want to ask Mr. Chu face to face."

Chu Huan nodded slightly and said, "If you have any questions about Mr. Cha, just ask."

Jin Yong asked, "Mr. Chu really believes that comics are the way out for martial arts novels in the future? I talked to Guan Chen on the phone before, and he highly praised the plan proposed by Mr. Chu."

Chu Huan thought for a while and said, "I'm actually not sure whether comics are the way out for martial arts novels in the future. I just want to see if this path can work. If it works, it will be good. If it doesn't, it will be good."

If so, it’s just a loss of some money, no big deal!”

Jin Yong's eyes lit up and he sighed, "Mr. Chu's ambition is far beyond my reach!"

Everyone carries the sedan chair!

Chu Huan said, "Mr. Cha is overly praised. I just like reading martial arts novels, and naturally I don't want martial arts novels to decline like this!"

Jin Yong nodded and continued, "Mr. Chu's fantasy comics have been frequently advertised in major newspapers recently, and they even invited some Japanese painters. I'm just a little worried about whether those Japanese painters can draw them."

Where is the essence of martial arts?"

Chu Huan understood that this should be what Jin Yong was most worried about.

As I have just said, Jin Yong has already become famous at this time. People who are successful all have one shortcoming, that is, they cherish their own feathers.

Even Chu Huan is no exception. In order to quickly accumulate original capital, Chu Huan also used sniping, real and fake acquisitions and other means on the Hong Kong stock market.

But now that Chu Huan has gained status in Xiangjiang, Chu Huan no longer uses such methods.

It's actually for my own feathers.

The reason why Jin Yong never agreed to buy the copyright for himself was actually because of this. He was worried that those Japanese painters would not understand the meaning of his novels and would draw randomly, which would ruin his reputation.

This is why when TVB later filmed the TV series adapted from Jin Yong's novel, Jin Yong had a great say.

When Xu was filming "The Swordsman", he made some magical changes. Although the movie was called a classic by fans, it made Jin Yong very popular!

From then on, Mr. Xu could no longer adapt Jin Yong’s novels. It was not until Jin Yong’s death that Mr. Xu got the rights to adapt Jin Yong’s novels again and prepared to film the trilogy of “The Legend of the Withered Heroes”!

"Mr. Cha, please rest assured. Just two days ago, the Japanese painters I hired have arrived in Xiangjiang. However, I did not ask them to start working immediately. Instead, I stayed in the company to look at Mr. Cha's masterpiece while in the process of adapting it.

There are also painters from Xiangjiang accompanying him, so for Mr. Cha’s masterpiece, our company will definitely refer to the original work carefully!”

After Chu Huan figured out the real reason, he preached.

As for whether it is a faithful reference, that is a matter of opinion, but in any case, we need to buy the copyright of Jin Yong's novel first.

Everything else is false.

Naturally, Jin Yong would not know Chu Huan's true inner thoughts. After hearing what Chu Huan said, Jin Yong was indeed tempted.

Nowadays, the comic industry is doing great, and more young people no longer like reading novels, but like reading comics.

Jin Yong also hopes that his novels can be seen by more people, and their influence will naturally be greater.

However, being tempted, Jin Yong continued to make his request, that is, he hoped that he could be responsible for the review of the comic adaptation of his novel!

However, Chu Huan immediately expressed his opposition to this point.

He doesn’t want Jin Yong to become the second Stan Lee!

If the comics are faithfully adapted from Jin Yong's novel, what's the point? Even comics like Tezuka Osamu have to move closer to CR. Naturally, Chu Huan can't give up, but he will definitely not go too far.

, but there must be some slightly out-of-the-ordinary images on the screen.

Chu Huan didn't want to let Jin Yong dictate what happened.

So Chu Huan started to play Tai Chi with Jin Yong.

"Mr. Cha, the creation of comics is different from novels. To be honest, even I don't know much about comics. The fantasy comics are also fully handled by Yasuo Kamikura."

Jin Yong understood that Chu Huan didn't want him to get too involved, but the influence brought by adapting the novel into a comic was what Jin Yong wanted most.

After all, Jin Yong has already seen the dividends of novel adaptation in film adaptation.

In 1958, Xiangjiang Emei Film Company had already adapted Jin Yong's novel "The Legend of the Heroes of the Heroes" and made two Cantonese films of the same name.

This also opened the way for Jin Yong's novels to be adapted into films.

It is precisely because of this that Jin Yong's novels have greater influence.

Nowadays, the comic industry is obviously on the rise. Just like the original movie, Jin Yong naturally does not want to give up.

Fortunately, Chu Huan found Jin Yong before the trend of adapting TV series from Jin Yong's novels started. Otherwise, Jin Yong really might not think highly of today's comics.

Before 1976, Jin Yong's novels were only adapted into movies. In 1976, Jiayi TV launched two TV series adapted from Jin Yong's novels, "The Legend of the Withered Heroes" and "The Legend of the Withered Heroes." It caused a huge sensation in Hong Kong and even the entire Southeast Asia.
