"Is this a waste of talent? This is a transformation of genius!"
After a few days, various book reviews began to come out one by one.
Although there are quite a lot of comments about "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", for example, many professional book reviewers are very dissatisfied, thinking that Lao Bai's writing style has deteriorated greatly, and even the connotation and level of the novel have dropped a lot, which is nothing more than
It's just a strange word. But for most ordinary people, they hold a supportive attitude towards Lu Xiaofeng...
Is it enough to look good?
The sales rankings of Guhu.com have always been the focus of attention from all walks of life. Not only the book lists, book reviewers, including major film and television companies, game companies and animation companies are always paying attention, because maybe there are
There are future adaptations and hits.
only……
As soon as they saw the names of the first two authors, all the copyright acquisition enthusiasts sighed at the same time.
Liu Mengzhun is a veteran, and his copyright adaptation fees are notoriously high. Although Lao Bai has only been out for a few years, he can't stand up to his huge influence and high sales. What's even more speechless is that the guy seems to have never sold it.
Adaptation rights, regardless of movies, TV series or games, the only time I adapted the martial arts novel "The Two Prides" was to set up a dream factory...
"Mr. Zhao, you can have a good talk with him!"
Li Yulan, the new general manager of the copyright department of Golden Eagle Video, put the cup in front of Zhao Jinxiang and said earnestly: "For a writer, the adaptation right not only brings huge economic benefits to himself, but it is also the best way to promote his work.
What a way! Look at those writers who were originally not well-known. Isn’t it because their novels were adapted into TV series or movies that they became famous and their sales soared? "
"Haha, that's right."
After taking two sips of hot water, Zhao Jinxiang nodded casually.
"..."
Seeing that Zhao Jinxiang was obviously not moved, Li Yulan's cheeks suddenly twitched several times, and a flash of anger flashed in her eyes.
As the copyright manager of Golden Eagle Video, Li Yulan is no small figure.
In fact, in this era when the Internet is gradually rising and TV stations are gradually declining, many film and television company executives are paying more and more attention to the three major video websites. Many large companies have even established network departments to test the waters of online dramas or
A major online movie, so the importance of Li Yulan's position has also increased.
Not to mention Zhao Jinxiang, aren't even the senior executives of big companies polite to them when they meet him?
Moreover, in the past two years, Golden Eagle Video has begun to try self-produced dramas, and Li Yulan has also begun to deal with famous writers and cartoonists. Who is as arrogant as Lao Bai, who is unwilling to even meet him? Even this Zhao Jinxiang is...
The look of indifference on his face...
However, suppressing the anger in her heart, Li Yulan still smiled and said calmly: "Ahem, Mr. Zhao, if Teacher Lao Bai has any conditions, you can just ask for it! Whether it is copyright transfer fee or share, as long as we at Golden Eagle Video can do it
There must be no problem... Our cooperation has always been very pleasant in the past, isn't it?"
"Of course, it was a pleasure!"
Hearing what Li Yulan said, Zhao Jinxiang's expression became solemn, but he still shook his head and said: "Mr. Li, I understand what you mean, but I have told you many times about my brother-in-law! He
He is an adult, and a very independent adult, and he will never change his mind because of my relationship! So...if Golden Eagle Video is really interested in the rights to adapt his novel, then you'd better do it
Go directly to him and talk!”
"..."
Her eyelids trembled for a while, and Li Yulan's face turned ugly.
Isn't this nonsense?
If Jin Ying Video could negotiate with Lao Bai, would he need Zhao Jinxiang's skills? He would even offer better terms? Wasn't it because that guy just didn't like Jin Ying Video that he came up with this method?
Li Yulan is very irritable right now and really wants to get angry!
However, when she thought of "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" which was at its peak, and when she thought of the other seven books under Lao Bai's name that had sold millions of copies and had begun to break into the top 100 of Guhu.com in the past two days, Li Yulan still suppressed her anger.
He stood down, then forced a smile and said: "In that case, Mr. Zhao, could you please help contact Teacher Lao Bai, how about I treat him to a meal? This request is not too much, right?"
"Of course, hehe."
With a wry smile, Zhao Jinxiang nodded and said: "Of course this is not too much, but Mr. Li, I must also remind you that it is one thing for me to help you make an appointment with him, but whether he accepts it or not is another matter..."
…
"I'm sorry, brother-in-law."
After listening to what Lao Zhao said, Sun Peng declined helplessly: "You also know how busy I am recently, I really don't have much time... and I already have plans for the adaptation rights of those novels, at least I have to wait.
Let’s talk about it after “Dragon Inn” is released, right?”
If you agree to this kind of invitation, you will never think about being clean in the future.
"Okay, I get it."
Zhao Jinxiang was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Don't take it to heart, we are relying on Golden Eagle Video now, but after the filming of "Detective Di Renjie" is completed, my company will be completely formed, and my future cooperation with them will also be
It just doesn’t matter…you know what I mean, right?”
"Haha, I understand, I understand!"
Hearing what Zhao Jinxiang said, Sun Peng was immediately happy.
The filming of "Detective Di Renjie" started in a hurry, and Zhao Jinxiang still doesn't have the strength to film them independently, but next year...or the next time Zhao gets Sun Peng's new script, there should be no problem! More than a year later
, enough for him to set up the framework of a film and television company, and at least make a TV series, or even a low-cost movie.
At that time, it will be a pure cooperative relationship with Golden Eagle Video.
After hanging up the phone, Sun Peng shrugged at his second sister and said, "You see, not only are there people looking for you every day, but the same goes for my brother-in-law. Golden Eagle Video is so domineering!"
"Haha, ignore them!"
Pouring her lips, Sun Ya said disdainfully: "These people always think that they or their company are so powerful in the entertainment industry, and they think that everyone should beg them, haha, and they don't think about the impact of our name Lao Bai.
Power! Even if you don’t enter the entertainment industry, can you make a living just by writing books?”
"Oh, you can see it clearly!"
With his eyes widened, Sun Peng gave the second sister a thumbs up!
This is really true!
The reason why Sun Peng dares to reject everyone, even the giants in the industry, is because of the name Lao Bai's reputation in book publishing and even online publishing! To put it bluntly, of course you can make money by adapting your own works, but if you don't adapt, we will
Not having that little money won’t affect your life, right?
Besides, how much power does a Golden Eagle video have?
At most, it will only affect their cooperation with Lao Zhao, but for "Criminal Minds", whose ratings are hovering at five points all the time, who dares to take action on him? Who doesn't want to live? Even "Detective Di Renjie"
, if Golden Eagle Video is really looking for trouble, it will change cooperation every minute, so what are you afraid of!
After saying a few words casually, Sun Peng forgot about the matter.
Sun Ya didn't care very much. She rolled her eyes and quickly asked with a smile: "Xiaopeng, how is the post-production of your movie going? You said it was almost done a few days ago, why haven't you finished it yet?"
"Two days, two more days at most!"
With a big smile on his face, Sun Peng said with great certainty: "I checked the entire film today and found a few minor problems. I will make the final revisions tomorrow. I made an appointment with Ma Ge and the others the day after tomorrow to record the final ending song.
Add it all together..."
"Buzz..."
At this moment, Sun Ya's cell phone on the table vibrated again.
Picking it up and looking at the caller number, Sun Ya frowned: "Mr. Fang from Forbidden City Pictures? Doesn't he also want to buy the rights to adapt the novel? Wow, this is really troublesome..."
However, complaining is complaining, and Sun Ya still answered the phone very professionally: "Hello, Mr. Fang, I am Sun Ya!"
"Haha, hello, Miss Sun!"
After a hearty laugh, Fang Lanshen quickly said loudly: "I'm calling to remind you and Teacher Lao Bai that our "Hurricane Rescue" will be released in North America today, don't forget to pay attention to the box office...
