Chapter 110 Exhortation (First!)

After coming out of the hospital, he went home to wash up and clean up, and then Yin Jun went to Xingji Tea Restaurant again.

There is no mobile phone at this time, so when talking about things, you need to make an appointment in advance, otherwise it will not be easy to find someone.

It was almost 9 o'clock in the morning, and when Yin Jun arrived in the reserved box, he saw Huang Ying eating and drinking.

"Young Master Jun, are you here?" Huang Ying saw Yin Jun, raised his hand to say hello, and continued to stuff things into his mouth, "I'm really not used to things from Baodao. And these days are all going to be drinking. Now, just eat some instant noodles, it's better to stay at home, these refreshments are so delicious!"

Yin Jun smiled, sat opposite him, poured a cup of Pu-erh tea, and drank it slowly, "Brother Ying, this is called a hundred days at home, is it difficult to go out for one day?"

"Who said it wasn't?" Huang Ying nodded in agreement, pointing to a transparent plastic folder on the chair next to him, "This is the contract, you signed it in advance, and Gu Long also signed it. It's already in effect. Gu Long didn't call me an IOU for the balance of the money, no wonder he called him Gu Daxia! Just for this, I have to fly to Treasure Island tonight."

Yin Jun took out eight stacks of big golden bulls from his carry-on bag, and took 50 scattered golden bulls along the way: "I'll ask Brother Ying. Besides, the travel expenses last time were almost spent, right? You don't need to, Brother Ying. Save money, you can get in touch with them a lot, and friends who are more forthright are liked by everyone.”

Before Huang Ying went to Baodao last time, Yin Jun gave him 50,000 yuan, and told him to treat guests generously. If there was any place to give money, they all rushed to check out.

The current Hong Kong dollar is still very valuable. The economy of Hong Kong is not bad. The monthly salary is only 900, and 50,000 is almost the salary of a person for 5 years.

Baodao's consumption is not high, Huang Ying took this money to Baodao, even if he was drinking flower wine, no matter how happy a group of alcoholics were, within three or five days, it would definitely be enough.

As for Yin Jun giving Huang Ying a total of 100,000 two times, whether he has any left or not, Yin Jun does not intend to ask at all.

When looking for someone to do things, you must not be stingy. This is the experience summed up by Yin Jun.

Besides, Yin Jun has never been stingy. In his previous life, he had a salary of five or six thousand a month. When someone he knew wanted to borrow money, or asked him to treat him to a late night beer, he would usually agree readily.

Money is something that is earned and spent.

After all, worrying about money every day is not something a man should do.

Huang Ying admired Yin Jun's Shanghai-style character, he accepted the money rudely, and said, "I will stay here at the treasure island for two or three days at most, I really can't stand them. I am more and more suspicious now. , How did Gu Long and Wo Longsheng write their books, drinking too much, doesn't it affect thinking?"

"So, you can see that the classics they wrote are almost all works from the 1960s and 1970s." Yin Jun laughed, "If it goes on like this, they may not be able to produce any good works. Not everyone is like this. Kim Yong is so self-disciplined, if it wasn't for Kim Yong being obsessed with business, he would have no problem writing for 30 years."

"Come on!" Huang Ying hurriedly shook his head, "Jin Yong has written so many dozen novels, and the mountains are already pressing us down. If there are more than twenty or thirty novels, won't this make us never get ahead?"

"You're still so young, but you have some time." Yin Jun said, "But Brother Ying, your ambition doesn't seem to be in writing books, right?"

"Hey, you're right!" Huang Ying swallowed a piece of tripe and said with interest, "Then what do you think I want to do?"

"Develop first as a screenwriter. If it develops well, I will become a director, open a film company, and make a good career." When Huang Ying's mouth became wider and wider, Yin Jun shrugged: "Eagle Brother, did I say something wrong?"

"It's really a ghost!"

Huang Ying looked shocked, "You are the roundworm in my stomach... Oh, I'm sorry, Young Master Jun, that's not what I meant!"

"It's okay." Yin Jun smiled slightly.

"Young Master Jun, since you can guess that I want to make a movie, do you think I can succeed?" Huang Ying looked up.

The Yin Jun in front of him is not only a young man who predicted his dreams so accurately, but also a veritable genius screenwriter with strength and vision that no one else has.

In fact, Huang Ying has never been so sure about his ideals. It happened that Yin Jun talked about this matter today, so he could ask for advice.

In the academic way, the master is the teacher.

Although Yin Jun is young, his ability is superior to most people in their twenties and thirties, so what he says has a lot of weight.

"Do you really want to hear it?" Yin Jun said with a half-smile as he was eating.

Seeing Yin Jun like this, Huang Ying's heart sank, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Please speak!"

"Because you have full imagination and expressive ability, you can do some screenwriting work well, and you can become a first-class screenwriter. But..." Yin Jun changed his words, "You lack the spirit of keeping pace with the times, and you do not detect popular factors. If you are a director, or even start your own company, you will probably go bankrupt sooner or later.”

Huang Ying knew that Yin Jun was not optimistic about him, but he did not expect Yin Jun to speak so seriously.

For a while, he said with resentment: "Isn't being a screenwriter and a director both making up stories? Since I can be a good writer and screenwriter, why can't I be a good director?"

"Gu Long and Jin Yong are better than your books. When have you seen them direct?" Yin Jun said, "This is because they know that if they can write a good story, they may not necessarily be a good screenwriter. Even a good screenwriter may not necessarily be a good director, because novels and movies have completely different forms of expression.

Novels are a kind of static reading, and the rendering power of words in many places will make people think from their hearts, which is the charm of novels. But the film is different. It relies on the expression of images, and is expressed by the transmission of light perception to the human brain, which requires higher requirements for directors. So this is why after many directors turn novels into TV series and movies, many places are different from the original.

Moreover, the pressure on directors is far greater than that of screenwriters and writers. Screenwriters are often paid a salary, and they are paid after writing a script, and there is still a fixed salary available. The author is better. After the book is published, you will get paid. The more times you republish it, the more money you can get. But what about the director? He is responsible for a movie with millions or even millions of investment. If it fails, what responsibility should he take?

Not to mention, Brother Ying, you want to start your own company. You have a successful movie, no problem, then you want to continue to make money, no problem. But if you are unwilling to continue to make movies after a failure, and you end up with a lot of debt, what should you do? Can you afford such setbacks and failures? What should your family do? "

Huang Ying swallowed his saliva, his face a little ugly: "Young Master Jun, everyone who wants to fight will face such a possibility, right? Even when you went to film "Wulin Biography", wasn't it very difficult?"

"Yeah, so I will be more cautious in the future." Yin Jun said, "However, what I said is also very possible, you are not at that level yet. But if you ask me to give you advice, I suggest You first stay in the screenwriting industry for 10 years, then in the directing industry for 10 years, and then you will consider at that time whether it is the most appropriate for you to take on the heavy responsibility of a company."

Huang Ying thought about it, he is 22 years old this year, 32 years old after 10 years as a screenwriter, and 42 years old after 10 years as a director. It seems that it was not too late to start a company at that time.

Listening to the tragic failures Yin Jun said just now, he was still a little uneasy in his heart. After all, this can happen to every filmmaker.

But if it is done according to Yin Jun's suggestion, it seems to be much more stable.

"Let's not say anything else. After 20 years of accumulation, your economic and psychological endurance will definitely be much better than now." Yin Jun continued, "At that time, even if it is one or two movies. The movie is on the street, and you won't suffer a major setback, and you won't be able to get up, right?"

Huang Ying nodded, although there was still a look of unwillingness on his face, the obsession he mentioned just now has also weakened a lot.

no way.

Yin Jun is a genius at all. What a genius says, especially what a successful genius says, is always something that someone wants to hear.

Huang Ying had been in contact with Yin Jun so many times, and he knew that Yin Jun was not the kind of person who was alarmist and liked to be scary, but a very down-to-earth and very cautious person.

If Yin Jun hadn't seen some of his shortcomings, he probably wouldn't have said so.

"Brother Ying, only those who can stand loneliness and hardships can succeed." Yin Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "You are only 22 years old, and 20 years is not that long. At that time, you were married and had children, so you would be more thoughtful about things, and it would only help the film career, not hurt. Be stable, it’s always better for yourself and your family, right?”

Huang Ying nodded again.

This time, his expression was a little more relaxed.

Yin Jun didn't know if he really listened, but with the current friendship between the two, Huang Ying completed his commission beautifully. This is a friendship.

If there is such a day, Huang Ying will still embark on that road. I believe that with Yin Jun's strength at that time, it will not be difficult for him to help him through the most difficult time.

As long as he thought so, Yin Jun's heart slowly became more at ease.

"Okay, Brother Ying, let's talk about business." Yin Jun stopped his chopsticks and said, "I wonder if you have any requirements for your adaptation of "Shen Shengyi"?"

"Didn't I say it last time? There is no requirement." Huang Ying said indifferently: "You can adapt it for me as soon as possible, and it will be enough to turn it into a TV drama."

"What about remuneration? You have to set a certain amount, right?" Yin Jun asked.

"I heard that better screenwriters now get 1,200 episodes, and moderate 800 episodes... I'm the original author, so I'll charge you an integer, 10,000!" Huang Ying said.

Adapted scripts are actually more troublesome than original scripts.

Because in addition to the cost of adaptation, there is also a cost of purchasing the copyright of the original work.

Huang Ying's "Shen Shengyi" has a total of 27 stories, all of which are very exciting. Of course, this also follows Gu Long's classic Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng series, with a story in several episodes.

For such a novel, only 10,000 was charged. That was really cheap. It was only one-tenth of the PR fee that Yin Jun asked him to use this time.

It can be seen that Huang Ying really doesn't care about money.

"This can't be done." Yin Jun shook his head, he was not used to taking advantage of this, "Brother Ying, I bought the adaptation rights and wrote the script to do business... Do you think so! Are you not working as a screenwriter now? "Winning Clothes" was adapted into a script, tentatively scheduled for about 80 episodes, I will give you 2,000 yuan per episode, what do you think?"

"So much?" Huang Ying calculated that he could get 160,000, which is a huge fortune. "You don't need so much. Together with the authorization and adaptation, 1,000 episodes is good."

"I think it's worth so much money." Yin Jun said, "but I have to tell you first, without involving changing the plot direction and main content, I may make some changes to "Shen Shengyi", Brother Ying, do you mind?"

"What do I mind?" Huang Ying shook his head again and again, "You are the No. 1 screenwriter of Xiangjiang, you can change the script of my novel to make the TV series "Shen Shengyi" more attractive and make me more famous, I can't ask for it! "

"That's good."

Yin Jun nodded and said, "As for the actors who have any suggestions, you can also tell me, and we can advise the TV station."

"Aren't you shooting yourself?" Huang Ying asked in surprise.

"I still have too many shortcomings. I can't control this kind of long drama." Yin Jun smiled, "Whether it is the control of the camera, the control of the rhythm, and the adjustment of the actors' acting skills, I'm a long way off, and I have to study for a few more years."

Huang Ying nodded when he heard the words, this young master is really humble, obviously he is the director in front of "Wulin Gaiden", but he only let others do it after the filming is familiar, but he is still not satisfied with pride.

It seems that he persuaded me to do those things for my own good.

Now I don't say it's a movie, I've never been an independent screenwriter a few times, and I haven't gotten good grades every time. It's just too self-aware to think so much.

"By the way, Brother Ying, if you write the script and sell it to Jiashi, is there any problem with Li's side?" Yin Jun said when he remembered something.

"Of course there's no problem. In fact, my contract has almost expired." Huang Ying said, "Brother Ruoyuan was going to give me a new contract, but I think now, if "Shen Shengyi" wants to make a TV series, I will You can learn it in the crew, what do you think, Young Master Jun?"

"Can."

Yin Jun smiled and said, "I'll just talk to the other side at that time. Brother Ying, get ready to get busy!"

"It's better to be busy, it's better than having nothing to do all day long!" Huang Ying said with a smile on his face.

Thinking that her novel will soon be made into a TV series, Huang Ying just feels very comfortable!
