Chapter 601 Big News

"What if the system forces me to copy books ()"!

"Is your book really going to be made into a Hollywood blockbuster? Some people on the Internet said that the person you said you were going to blind date for the work was the producer of Universal Pictures?"

Just like the love of beauty, everyone has the heart of gossip.

Students from top universities will also pay attention to these entertainment news after heavy study, not to mention that one of the protagonists of the news is by their side!

Facing the questions from his classmates, Li Chungang readily admitted: "There is such a thing, and now I just have the idea of ​​cooperating with the other party. You don't have to be too happy, maybe after we both graduate Didn't get to see the movie officially released."

It may be easier to talk about movies with small production costs, but big IPs and big productions like "The Lord of the Rings" that are destined to be made into a series of movies and are highly valued by both parties are not easy to complete the filming. The selection and construction of the shooting site is a large and time-consuming project.

"No way? Now we are only sophomores, and there are still two full years before graduation. How slow is this filming!" The student who asked the question just now couldn't help asking in surprise.

The other students sitting around also had the same expression, they didn't believe it at all.

"Why does a big Hollywood movie take so long to shoot?"

"I know it's going to be elaborate, isn't two years enough?"

"A good movie should take more time to prepare."

Li Chungang patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "Didn't you say that you planned to study abroad in the United States after graduation? If you were in the United States at that time, don't forget to call on your classmates to go to the cinema to support the box office. If the box office can sell well You can still brag to your classmates that you know the original author of this movie, how face-saving it is."

He himself does not plan to continue his studies after graduating from university, and the classmates in these classes have their own ideas, some want to go to the United States to continue their studies, some want to study in Tsinghua University, and some want to go to other schools communicative.

Lu Liang is already preparing for the TOEFL and IELTS exams. It seems that there is no difficulty at present, at least not for our top students of Tsinghua University.

"The Lord of the Rings" has just negotiated the film copyright cooperation. Before that, Evans did take a temporary script, but to be honest, there are many things in it that are not well set. It looks more like a shoddy script. Semi-finished product!

Universal Pictures will now have to remake the screenplay based on what's in the book.

Not every director dares to take on such a big production. If a film of this level does not perform well at the box office, it can be said that the director has to be responsible, and maybe he will completely miss the big production in the future.

There is no director, no script, no actors found, no way of shooting, and the preparatory team has not been pulled up yet. Waiting for a year and a half to shoot the film, then do special effects, promote it and release it, two years is really not enough!

And according to one of the conditions that Wen Siquanyong negotiated with Universal Pictures:

The script of "The Lord of the Rings" will be written by Li Chungang himself, and Universal Pictures also has the right to review and approve.

That is to say, Universal Pictures promised to give Li Chungang, the author of the work, to complete the adaptation of the script himself, but after the adaptation of the script is completed, they need to review the script. If they pass it, they will get the treatment of Hollywood's top gold medal screenwriter, and the box office 1% dividend + $3 million remuneration.

Fortunately, the preliminary preparations for the filming of "Lord of the Rings" are not like the level of the "Sword Come" TV series. The preliminary preparations alone will take a long time, which also gave him plenty of time to complete the script adaptation.

There is one thing to say, this time the adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings", even a man with a [system] will feel a little Alexander.

After all, what the system can unlock is that your theoretical knowledge of script adaptation has reached the master level of the current era, but the actual operation still depends on your personal comprehension and fortune.

The only good news is that there is plenty of time. Universal Pictures didn't even specify the time of delivery in the contract, because even they themselves don't know how much time it will take to establish and prepare the project.

Although Lu Liang had some regrets, he actually wanted to go to the cinema to watch this movie with his friends in the class before graduation, which has a special commemorative significance.

"Although you won't be able to watch "The Lord of the Rings" in a short time, you can still support "The Sword Comes" which is currently on iQiyi."

"Chun Gang, you don't know, Lao Lu, a stingy guy, in order to support your sword, he didn't continue to prostitute our iQiyi VIP for nothing, but rushed one himself, or the one with a year's contract, can you believe it? !?"

"Go, go, go~ Am I stingy? I'm thrifty!"

"Hahaha."

"..."

—

next day.

"Mr. Li, this is the statistic table sent by the crew of "Sword Come". Please have a look."

Because of negotiating with Evans, Qi Tong, who was temporarily stranded in Yanjing, visited Li Chungang's villa in person, and handed over a data sheet while reporting the progress of the negotiation with Universal Pictures.

He Miao, who was at home, saw an outsider coming, followed him into the study room, just watched quietly from the sidelines, wondering what was going on in his heart.

"Well, I see." Li Chungang took the data sheet and looked down carefully.

The good news from the "Sword Come" series keeps coming. As one of the investors, Li Chungang is naturally very happy.

He asked the company to collect the daily data changes. Today happened to be the first week since the TV series "Sword Come" was broadcast on Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV. This data is still very meaningful.

While silently looking at the data in my hands...

He Miao interrupted suddenly: "Speaking of which, why doesn't the company set up a branch or office in Yanjing?"

In her opinion, Li Chungang is still at least two years away from officially graduating from school. Although Lin Meng is responsible for handling all the company's affairs, and most of the time he is in a state of throwing his hands away, this does not mean that You don't need to care about the company's affairs anymore.

Instead of always running back and forth between Yanjing and Shanghai, it is better to simply set up a branch office in Yanjing.

At present, any company with a slightly larger size in China does not have a branch company. I dare not say if there are too many companies. At least first-tier cities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen still have them.

It has to be said that He Miao's words awakened the dreamer and made Li Chungang really think seriously about the feasibility of opening a branch in Yanjing.

"Minister Qi, do you think it is feasible for the company to open a branch in Yanjing?"

Qi Tong: "..."

Before that, Qi Tong had heard that his boss is very casual, and he would often do some behaviors as soon as he thought about it. He didn't believe it before, but now he is convinced. Otherwise, who would suddenly want to do this after hearing the suggestion to open a branch company.

There is no way, who let Li Chungang be his boss, and he is very satisfied with this job, and has no idea of ​​changing jobs.

So I can only bite the bullet and analyze: "Based on the current scale of our company, it is quite feasible to open a branch in Yanjing. But what really needs to be considered is the problem of personnel. Those who are in charge of the overall situation in Beijing still need a large number of subordinate employees, and our company is currently in a stage of rapid development, so it is not a good time to distract others..."

Inside and outside the words, Qi Tong already understood what he wanted to express.

In a simple sentence: it is no problem to open a branch, provided that you have enough people!

What is the most expensive thing in the 21st century? That's certainly talent!

After deliberating for a while, Li Chungang could only accept it helplessly: "It's true that my thinking was a bit too simple. Now the company has just started to enter the entertainment industry, and it can't even be said to be on the right track, and it is still in a state of loss. In this situation It is really inappropriate to be distracted by preparing for the opening of a branch office.

At least we have to wait until the company successfully achieves profitability! My requirements are not high, as long as I can make a profit! "

Emmm, in fact, it's not that the company is not profitable, but the current profit is not quite the same as what Li Chungang said.

Needless to say, at present the company's main profit point is still completely on its own body. It is not a simple matter to leave oneself to support such a large company, and losses are nothing more than normal.

His requirement is that the company can achieve profitability in film and television investment and production. It seems that it is not a problem at present. The results of "Sword Come" have already improved, but it is still too early to pay dividends.

Other profit points mainly focus on artist commercial performances, endorsements and the development of peripheral products. Although not too much, it is still no problem to maintain the company's operations.

Li Chungang put down the report in his hand and looked at Qi Tong: "How is the situation of the writers contracted by the Ministry of Culture?"

Qi Tong thought about it for a while before answering: "With the help of your reputation and connections in the online literary circle, boss, the number of Longteng writers who have signed contracts with our company this year is far more than 130% more than last year. It is expected that the first batch of harvest will be ushered in from March to April next year!"

Li Chungang fell into deep thought: "The water in the entertainment industry is far deeper than imagined, and the company wants to make a difference in the entertainment industry. In my opinion, there is no other way but to follow the path of IP being king. Where does IP come from?" Come? We can only rely on the colleagues in the Ministry of Culture, I hope that in the future we can achieve the level of internal digestion."

"After I go back, I will urge them to continue working hard!"

"OK."

On July 3rd, the manuscript fee statistics for June will be released on time.

Maybe it's because the update last month was too crazy, which caused the manuscript fee in June to skyrocket a lot, plus the manuscript fee from various channels, the readers' generous rewards, and the follow-up share of copyrights such as audiobooks, and finally The counted figures are eight figures.

81.62 million!

More than 9.14 million tax deductions will be made!

More than 9 million yuan, even in the first-tier cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, is enough to buy a good three-bedroom house!

For this amount of money, if you buy a car, it will be the price of a supercar. Just looking at it makes your heart bleed.

However, it would probably be even crazier if outside authors knew about it.

When they were still basking in the joy of earning more than 10,000 yuan a month, Mr. Chungang’s one-month manuscript tax had paid for them to write books for a lifetime.

More than nine million taxes!

Nima, hard work and hard work can't make 900,000 yuan, why do you only pay 9 million in monthly draft tax? !

Where is human nature?

What is the reason?

Sure enough, there are no human rights in Pujie, and Pujie can only look up.

Li Chungang seems to have foreseen that if those authors in the circle know his income, they will have a "salted fish lost their dreams" attitude.

Sure enough, comparing goods with goods is worth throwing away, and comparing people with others makes people pissed off.

However, although the manuscript fee has been calculated, it can only be released on the 12th. During this period, Li Chungang still has to do what he should do.

It is time to pay attention to the plan to open another new work focusing on the global market.

"The Hobbit", which is a sister chapter of "The Lord of the Rings", exists in Li Chungang's plan, but it is not now, and it will not be released in a short time, at least until the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. The best time to continue the story is when the filming of the series of movies is completed and Middle-earth's position in the hearts of readers around the world is completely established.

Before that, we still need to continue to come up with enough heavyweight works.

For him who owns the entire [Literature Encyclopedia System], there are many excellent classic works, but the scope of good books that are both classic and in line with other people's designs is much narrower.

Style is still very important for an author.

It's like if you ask Li Chungang to publish a handed down article of the level such as "One Hundred Years of Solitude", after reading it, others will not praise your literary talent, but immediately raise their weapons and ask you where you came from Can you write such a work with your "experience"?

Many works want to be written, which is very particular about a matter of experience.

This is why when Li Chungang selects his works, he always subconsciously goes in the direction of "overhead world", because only the brand new overhead world is the full-screen author's imagination, and does not require too much life experience, let alone let people I wonder if this is something that a young man in his twenties can write!

This point is often overlooked in a lot of entertainment. As long as it is a good work, it will be copied and published without any thought. Such behavior will only make readers who know a little bit laugh out loud.

Li Chungang naturally didn't want to make such a low-level mistake.

Therefore, the choice of a new book must be carefully considered and selected, at least it must look in line with your own personality, so that it will not make people feel strange.

Fortunately, Li Chungang has the help of the system, and he can directly filter according to the desired conditions——

"The Lord of the Rings" opened a beginning for itself, but at the same time it also raised the tone of the whole thing too high!

Therefore, the style of the second globally published work must not be too different.

He is determined to shock the world once again with his new work, so naturally he will not use some defective products as a perfunctory, it would be better if it can be adapted into a big movie like "The Lord of the Rings"!

Then let's make big news!
