Shi Zhijian didn't care about this, and immediately listed the novels written by Gu Long that could be easily adapted into movies, including "Huahua Ling", "Fragrant Sword Rain", "Huanhua Swords", "Famous Swordsman",
As well as "Chu Liuxiang", "Peerless Two Prides", "Iron-Blooded Flag Gate", and "Sentimental Swordsman's Ruthless Sword", etc.
It is a pity that some of Gu Long's most classic short stories have not yet been written, such as "Seven Weapons", "Happy Heroes", "Big Shot" and "The Sword of the Third Young Master", etc., but they are all the best in martial arts.
Shi Zhijian thought a lot. Since Gu Long hadn't written it yet, he would make up the story himself and shoot it as his own.
I'm sorry, Big Head, I didn't mean to steal your job!
Shi Zhijian was apologizing to Big Head Gu Long in his heart.
Gu Long was shocked that Shi Zhijian actually bought out so many of his works, and he bought them for twenty years!
Dai Fengni was also surprised, three million is not a small amount!
Is this Shi Zhijian crazy?
Zheng Shaoqiu and Zhao Yazhi were extremely excited. Mr. Shi had bought out so many stories. Wouldn't it be cheaper for contracted actors like them? Some of the male and female protagonists would be cast!
Everyone has different thoughts, who knows what Shi Zhijian is thinking.
In fact, starting from 1972, with Jin Yong officially announcing the end of writing, the Chinese martial arts world has completely begun the Year of the Ancient Dragon!
Gu Long alone held up the entire martial arts world. From 1972 to 1985, he created 35 classic works in just thirteen years, and all of these works were made into movies. The entire Hong Kong film industry was adapted from Gu Long.
Movie!
In other words, Gu Long's movies will dominate the film industry in the next ten years, and by then the copyright of Gu Long's novels will double and triple!
As a good friend of Gu Long, Ni Ji once wrote in "Essays on Film Industry": "The copyright of Gu Long's novels could be bought for 10,000 Hong Kong dollars at first. At that time, I could even exchange a bottle of Remy Martin for the copyright of a drama adaptation.
But ten years later, the copyright of Gu Long's novels has risen higher than the stock price, and my bottle of Remy Martin can only buy one line of his copyright."
Now, Shi Zhijian has won Gu Long's classic works in one go, which means that within 20 years, only Shinhwa Entertainment has the right to film Gu Long's novels. Shaw Brothers wants to remake it, but there is no way!
In addition, these copyrights can be liquidated in Shi Zhijian's hands just like stocks. When the market picks up, they can be multiplied several times and thrown out. If you pay three million to buy them out now, then you will throw out thirty million.
"Ajian, are you kidding me? Do you really want to spend three million to buy my novel?"
"What a gentleman says is hard to catch, and of course it is true! Tomorrow I will ask my personal lawyer Hu Juncai to bring the copyright contract. You can also find a lawyer to review it carefully. If there are no surprises, the contract will be signed as agreed tonight!
"
"Okay!" Big Head clapped, "As you said, I'll take this table tonight!"
Dai Fengni snorted and almost laughed.
They give you three million to buy you a meal. This Cologne is quite economical.
Shi Zhijian kept up his efforts, "Now that we have finished talking about copyright, let's talk about movies again."
After saying that, Shi Zhijian pointed to Zheng Shaoqiu, who had been sitting quietly next to him, and said: "His name is Qiu Zai, he is an artist under my banner, he has very good qualifications, and I am very optimistic about him! So this time I am going to support him as the male lead.
What do you think of playing the role of Chu Xiangshuai in "Chu Liuxiang"?"
Shi Zhijian knew that "Chu Liuxiang" was the lifeblood of Big Head, and if he wanted to film this drama, it was best to get his approval.
In addition, if Gu Long is satisfied with Zheng Shaoqiu, he can use the slogan "Gu Long appoints Chu Xiangshuai" to advertise his movie, which is definitely better than anything else.
At this time, the skewers and other barbecues had been served. Gu Long pinched a sheep egg and took a bite. Recently, he was singing every night and his body was a little weak.
After almost finishing the skewers, Gu Long took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, then looked up at Zheng Shaoqiu.
At this time, Zheng Shaoqiu was already nervous and sweating on his forehead.
Gu Longyi squinted his eyes, crumpled the tissue into a ball and threw it on the ground, "Ajian, I'm not talking about you, look at him, he is as thin as a chicken, trembling all over, there is no handsomeness at all, how does he look like Chu Xiang in my painting?
Handsome?"
Shi Zhijian sighed and glanced at the trembling Zheng Shaoqiu, knowing that Zheng Shaoqiu was too nervous. The more he tried to perform well, the more he became unbearable.
"He's not usually like this." Shi Zhijian patted Zheng Shaoqiu on the shoulder, "Jade tree facing the wind, free and uninhibited! He has all these words, but today I met a great god like you, and he was a little nervous!"
"Nervous? How can you act when you're nervous!" Gu Long rubbed his nose and suddenly threw the bamboo stick he had just finished rolling to Zheng Shaoqiu and said: "Hey, don't say that I won't give Ajian face or give you a chance! This one
A bamboo stick is a sword, show me how to dance with it!"
"Uh, sword dance? Is it here?" Zheng Shaoqiu looked around. This was a food stall, crowded with people.
"Why, are you scared? The first requirement for an actor is to be thick-skinned! I heard that you once even wore egg-wrapped pants to dance in order to film A Jian's soda commercial..."
"Sorry, let me correct you. Those are not egg-wrapped pants, but ballet clothes." Zheng Shaoqiu muttered.
"Whatever pants! Anyway, you dare to wear those kind of things, but now you are asked to play swordsmanship in this public place, but you don't dare to do it?" Gu Long said irritatingly, "If you dare to play swordsmanship with a bamboo stick here,
Then I will identify you as Chu Xiangshuai!"
"Really?" Zheng Shaoqiu gritted his teeth, "If I do it, will you give me a chance?"
"Of course! I mean what I say!" Gu Long said, picking up a toothpick and picking it.
For him, with so many people around him, if he danced a sword like a fool with a bamboo stick, wouldn't he be laughed at to death?
If Zheng Shaoqiu can really do it, it will prove that he is a talented person - he can let go of his stature and be thick-skinned. Only such a person can become popular.
Before Gu Long could finish his thoughts, he saw Zheng Shaoqiu suddenly shouted loudly, picked up the bamboo stick and started dancing smoothly.
Gu Long picked his teeth and was dumbfounded!
I saw Zheng Shaoqiu dancing around as if he was drunk, holding a bamboo stick, a rhinoceros looking at the moon, Lu Dongbin carrying a sword, and Tieguai Li drinking...
Gu Long saw it clearly!
Your mother still dances "Drunken Sword"!
The diners who were eating and drinking around suddenly saw someone playing with a sword here, and they applauded.
Of course, some diners sarcastically said: "Isn't this person crazy?"
"Bajiu is drunk! Look, he can't even stand still!"
Zheng Shaoqiu felt quite embarrassed and nervous at the beginning.
But as I danced so fast, all I could think about was that I wanted to be famous!
I want to stand out!
I want to be famous!
I want to be a big star!
At that moment, he forgot himself and his surroundings! There was only the bamboo stick in his hand! There was only the sword!
