"Okay, I'll help you get in touch!" Chai Zhiping nodded and said. Although she didn't know why Zhang Yicheng chose this book, she was still willing to match her.
In fact, when I chose to sign Nine Knives, I also took a fancy to the work of Nine Knives. There may be hope for adaptation in the future. After all, the premise of a good movie or a good TV series is to have a good story. This is the foundation. It depends on the screenwriters.
It's unreliable. Most screenwriters can't even write a reliable story.
They can't even modify a reliable story based on the original work, so what else can you expect them to do? Most of the early screenwriters were self-taught and full of genius, but now the screenwriters are trained in batches, and early on
It’s no longer as glorious as it was in the early days.
But later I discovered that it was unreliable, unreliable. Many of the stories about the Nine Knives are quite fantasy and require a lot of stunts. This is a fatal weakness. If there are mainland filmmakers willing to come,
Of course, if a Taiwanese director were to film it, no one would come to the door. Just look at how difficult it was to film Cape No. 7.
People think that Taiwanese movies are unreliable. Although there may be amazing movies, the probability of encountering them is too low. It is better to invest in movies from the Mainland or Hong Kong!
You can't do stunts without money, so the idea of adapting it gradually faded away.
Now that Zhang Yicheng is willing to adapt it, that is also a good thing.
When Zhang Yicheng saw the legendary Nine Knives, he could only admit that the Nine Knives really looked like a wretched uncle, which was completely different from Ke Jingteng in the movie. Sure enough, "Those Years" was so awesome
, it still beautifies him!
"Hello, Mr. Ke Jingteng, I am Zhang Yicheng!" Zhang Yicheng shook hands with Jiubidao and said.
"Hello, hello!" Jiubadao was a little surprised. He didn't expect Zhang Yicheng to call him by his real name instead of Jiubadao. In fact, he just didn't like people calling him Ke Teng, so he slowly let others call him Jiubadao.
Of course he didn't know that with the spread of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" all over the world, the real name of Nine Knives, Ke Jingteng, and the girl named Shen Jiayi also began to become famous.
"Mr. Ke Jingteng, I came here specifically to talk to you about the film and television copyright of your novel!" Zhang Yicheng said seriously.
Jiubidao was stunned. He had heard Chai Zhiping introduce him before. The young man in front of him was actually the CEO of a very well-known large company in the mainland (Chai Zhiping also exaggerated a bit). He was very powerful.
kind of
In the past, there were many people who wanted to buy the copyright for Nine Knives' books, but they were all companies with little strength, and they didn't even have any plans to bid for it. To buy the copyright of his book was just to wait for a price. First of all,
Bought out
These people have a good vision and know that in the future, such scripts and novels will be resources, basic resources. If they buy them in the future, they may not be at the current price.
Just like mainland fantasy novels, as long as they are popular, almost all film and television rights will be bought. Once bought, it will last six or seven years, but who has seen how they filmed them?
Just like the famous "Zhu Xian" was very popular, and the film and television rights were bought early, but until the time of Zhang Yicheng in later generations, the copyright was about to expire, and there was no news that it would be filmed. These good books
Copyright can also be regarded as a kind of investment. Whether to buy or not is one thing, but whether to buy or not is another matter.
Don’t you see, most of the later generations are popular TV series adapted from online novels, such as "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and "The Queen of the World" are all typical, and even the cheating "Palace 1.2"
Although it is not an adapted drama, it is obvious that Yu Zheng copied the online novel and created a semi-finished product. Even this kind of cheating and inferior copycat drama has achieved great success.
The reason is nothing more than an unimaginable imagination. Compared with traditional authors, the biggest characteristic of Internet authors is that they have an imagination beyond imagination. This is the biggest characteristic of Internet authors. Their unconstrained imagination makes many Internet authors
's literature is popular around the world
Compared with other online writers, Nine Knives knows very well what these people are thinking, so they are not very good at selling the copyright of their books. If you want to sell it, you have to have a shooting plan. Within the first two or three years, at least
We have to start shooting, but we don’t want to shoot, so why buy it?
And Nine Knives has long been successful and has no shortage of money, so why bother?
But according to Chai Zhiping, this one is different. Is Zhang Yicheng short of money? Of course he is not. The "Thirty-three Days of Love" alone has earned one billion. With this net worth alone, he is the top rich man in the entertainment industry. And if we talk about funds,
In terms of deployment rate, it is also second to none in the entertainment industry. After all, the assets of many big names in the entertainment industry also include a lot of real estate. However, Zhang Yicheng's real estate is not much, most of it is just money.
For Zhang Yicheng now, there is no pressure at all to mobilize 100 million casually.
Therefore, when Zhang Yicheng said that he wanted to buy his works, he naturally did not have the same purpose as others.
"It's "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years"!" Nine Knives said.
"Yes!" Zhang Yicheng did not deny it.
Nine Knives is a bit difficult. If it were other books, it would not be a problem, but if it is this book, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", then there would be a problem.
In the hearts of Nine Knives, these are the memories of him and Shen Jiayi, the memories of Ke Jingteng and Shen Jiayi. After he wrote this book, the first thing he did was to send it to Shen Jiayi to read. In fact, Jiu Dao had already had a "
The idea of bringing "The Girl We Chased Together" to the screen in those years. He also knew very clearly that perhaps only this book could be brought to the screen, and he was capable of doing it.
Although he has made a lot of money over the years, it is simply impossible to put all of his works on the screen. Among them, only "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" is the most likely to be praised by him.
Putting it on the screen, or anything else, putting it on the screen would only make him bankrupt.
After all, the current Nine Knives are not as confident as later generations. Having a good script is just the basis for a good movie. If he makes it by himself, the probability of being a success is higher.
