Chapter 393 Will you spit out what you eat in your mouth?
On the phone, Tan Jianlong chuckled and asked: "What? Manager Lan is interested in this book? Well, the electronic copyright of this book is on our website, and other copyrights are in the hands of the author himself. Manager Lan, you are here
If you are sure that you want to buy the film and television adaptation rights of this book, we will contact the author as soon as possible. Don’t worry, Manager Lan! Being able to sell the film and television adaptation rights is also a great thing for the author, so as long as you are here
The price given is right, so don’t worry about the author! The author himself probably won’t refuse.”
Lan Yunhua's lips curled up slightly, "Mr. Tan! You'd better make sure first whether the film and television adaptation rights of this book are still in the hands of the author! If they are, everything will be easy. If they are not, then there is no need for us to continue.
Let’s talk!”
After saying that, Lan Yunhua hung up the call.
On the other end of the phone, Tan Jianlong called the phone several times. When he heard the busy tone, the smile on his face faded and his brows furrowed.
Said to himself: "What does this Lan Yunhua mean? Do you want to buy the rights to adapt the works on our website, or is this your attitude? Are you taking the wrong medicine?"
His eyes were confused. After a moment, he picked up the landline phone on the table and dialed a short number, "Please contact the author of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and confirm with her that the film and television adaptation rights of her book still exist.
Is it in her hands? Yes! That’s it, yes! It’s the book "Step by Step Jingxin", um, contact me as soon as possible, and tell me the answer as soon as possible if you ask clearly!"
About half an hour later.
Tan Jianlong waited until the phone rang, then reached out to pick up the phone. The voice of his subordinate came over the phone, "Boss, the film and television adaptation rights of "Step by Step" have been sold recently, not long ago."
When Tan Jianlong heard this, his expression changed, the word "Chuan" formed between his eyebrows, and he asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure?"
"I am sure!"
Tan Jianlong closed his eyes, raised his left hand, pinched his eyebrows with two fingers, and asked: "Who did you sell it to? Did you ask how much it cost?"
"They said it was sold to Xianyu Studio, and the price is quite high, half a million!"
"Salted Fish Studio? Which Salted Fish Studio?"
Tan Jianlong opened his eyes, looking confused and confused.
"I heard that it's a new private studio opened by Xianyu, my old sun, recently. You know, Xianyu, my old sun, right? It's the platinum author from Qidian!"
"Is it him? Xianyu Studio?"
Tan Jianlong was surprised.
After the call ended and he put down the phone, Tan Jianlong subconsciously took out his cigarette case, lit a cigarette, pinched his eyebrows, and smoked a cigarette with a frown on his face.
The situation in front of him gave him a little headache.
The author is the head of the copyright department of Jinjiang Novel Network. It is not easy for him to get in touch with Tangren this time and recommend several excellent works from this site.
Because the trend of adapting online novels has not yet spread in the film and television industry, and there are no successful examples of online novels being adapted into movies or TV series in the market, it is a bold attempt for him to take this step in this position. If it succeeds, three
Within two years, his current position should be rock solid.
If it doesn't work...then it's hard to say.
If Tang Ren didn't like any of the books he handed to Tang Ren this time, it wouldn't matter to him. Even if he was a little disappointed, he could accept it.
But what I heard from Lan Yunhua on the phone just now... She must have been interested in "Bu Bu Jing Xin", but something went wrong on his side. He thought that the authors on his website didn't have the means to sell the film and television rights by themselves.
Therefore, when he recommended it to Tangren, he did not confirm one by one whether the film and television adaptation rights of those books were still in the hands of the original authors.
This is like a village chief in the 1980s, who could conclude that no one in the village had ever been abroad, let alone opened a Western restaurant, without asking from door to door.
Tan Jianlong was so sure before that the authors on his website could not sell the film and television adaptation rights on their own, but now that Tangren has taken a liking to "Bu Bu Jing Xin", he only belatedly discovered the rights to adapt this book.
, has been sold privately by the author.
For Tan Jianlong, what kind of shit is this?
He no longer dares to think about how his superiors will criticize him during the next regular meeting on Monday if other people in the company find out about this matter.
Depressed, annoyed!
He was not only angry about this incident, but also angry that the person who bought the film and television adaptation rights of "Bu Bu Jing Xin" in advance was the great author Xianyu Anlaosun from Qidian.
You must know that the current Jinjiang Novel Network and Qidian Chinese Network are both affiliated with Shanda Literature.
At this time, Shanda Literature was so outstanding. There were quite a few novel websites in the industry, whether they were novel websites for boys or novel websites for girls, almost all of them were from Shanda Literature.
When he was about to finish smoking a cigarette, Tan Jianlong put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, picked up the phone and dialed the number at the starting point.
We are all affiliated with Shanda Literature. Is it inappropriate for the author of your website to poach my corner?
If you eat it, spit it out immediately!
…
Sun Quan is making tea in the study. What he made today is barley tea, which was given to him by Li Lixi from the studio. Li Lixi said that it is a specialty of his hometown. Drinking it can clear away heat and relieve digestion.
Sun Quan didn't know whether what the guy said was true or not, but he accepted it with a smile, and he wouldn't get pregnant after trying it.
Not to mention, this barley tea is quite fragrant when brewed, with a refreshing aroma of barley.
After boiling for a while, he felt it was almost ready, so he turned off the power, picked up the teapot and poured a cup into his cup.
When a cup of tea was half poured, the mobile phone on his table rang.
Sun Quan glanced at it and ignored it for the time being. He waited for the cup of tea to be poured. He put down the teapot calmly, picked up the steaming and fragrant barley tea with one hand, and reached out to take the phone with the other.
The caller ID turned out to be an unfamiliar number.
Sun Quan brought the teacup to his nose, sniffing the aroma of the tea, hesitating slightly, but still answered the call.
"Old Sun! It's me, Hairtail. I just sent you a QQ message. Why didn't you reply?"
The voice of his editor, Haiyu, came over the phone.
Sun Quan was a little surprised, but not nervous at all. His expression was still very relaxed. He and Hairtail were already very familiar. He said casually: "I was making tea just now and didn't look at the computer. What's wrong? What message did you send me?"
After asking, he took a sip of the hot tea.
Hairtail: "..."
Silent, Hairtail said: "Well, the boss asked me to confirm something with you. Have you opened a studio called Xianyu?"
Sun Quan was even more surprised, and thought to himself: How come this news spread so quickly? Sure enough, people are doing it, and God is watching. If you don't want people to know, why don't you do nothing unless you do nothing?
Okay! His comment was a bit inappropriate, but his brain circuit is often different from that of ordinary people, not just once or twice.
"What's wrong? Qidian prohibits authors from having studios?"
There was doubt in Sun Quan's eyes, because he had never heard of Qidian's ban before. Besides, this is the author's private behavior and has nothing to do with Qidian. What right does Qidian have to ban the author from opening a studio?
Hairtail: "No, no! You misunderstood. Qidian couldn't help it. Then let me ask you another question. Did your studio buy the film and television adaptation rights for a novel called "Bu Bu Jing Xin" from Jinjiang?
Already?"
When Sun Quan heard this, his eyes narrowed.
As a writer of online articles, someone who relies on his brain to make a living. He may not be good at anything else, but his imagination is definitely rich.
He knows the elegant meaning of the song after listening to it. When the other person sticks out his butt, he will think about what the other person will do. This is his instinct.
In an instant, he had probably guessed where Hairtail had heard that he had opened a studio here, and he had probably guessed what she meant by calling him.
He didn't answer Hairtail in a hurry. He squinted his eyes and took another sip of barley tea.
It's really fragrant.
After a few seconds, he replied: "Yes, that's what happened. What's wrong?"
Hairtail: "Uh, did you really buy it? This...this...sigh! Old Sun, let me tell you the truth! Jinjiang happened to have contacted a film and television company recently, and after their strong recommendation and public relations
Next, the film and television company is already interested in buying the film and television adaptation rights of this book, so... uh, you also know that Jinjiang and our starting point belong to the same head office, right? So, the leader wants me to ask you
, can you return the film and television adaptation rights of this book to Jinjiang? Of course, depending on how much you paid for it, they will also compensate you for your losses, or you can make a price and I will pass it on to them, do you think it’s okay?
?”
Sun Quan smiled silently, because he had just guessed the meaning of Hairtail's words.
I really guessed it.
Therefore, for him, life is so boring, and he can guess how many things will turn out.
"Well, I understand. Since it's you who came to tell me, I must give you some face, so be it! Give me my address to Jinjiang! Let them send someone to follow me.
Interview, to be honest, I also bought this copyright at a high price. Since I bought it, I naturally want to make money, so let them send someone over to negotiate the price with me! Don’t let you keep spreading the word in the middle, I know
It's hard for you to do it when you're stuck in the middle, and it's hard for me to bargain with you. You can step out without hurting the friendship between us, what do you think?"
The editor must be given some face.
What's more important is that Mr. Sun has already thought of a strategy just now. He decided to buy some time for Fu Lei and hold back the people from Jinjiang first, making Jinjiang think that there is really room for discussion on this matter.
give face?
If he is willing to meet and talk to people from Jinjiang a few times, he will bring face to the editor.
As for the film and television adaptation rights of "Bu Bu Jing Xin"?
If you eat something in his mouth, do you expect him to spit it out?
If it were someone else, would someone else vomit?
Hairtail: "Hey, okay! Okay! You're right. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with me at all. To be honest, I don't want to get involved in it. Since you said that, it's easy to handle! I believe them
Someone will be sent over to talk to you soon, that’s okay! That’s it, I’ll hang up?”
