Chapter 34 Sure enough, a hero came out of a teenager
"This kid is young, he has such a city, and he is really a hero out of a young man. So young, but experienced, it's no wonder that he has such talent and can write such good works. β
As Zhang Lin's editor, he knows how popular Zhang Lin's current novels are, and the rewards from readers alone have already amounted to hundreds of thousands of yuan, not counting subscriptions and traffic.
Zhang Lin's work alone has brought millions of profits to their website. Moreover, the copyright of the novel is a potential asset. Therefore, in the face of Zhang Lin, the editor Hua Kaifu also had to be treated carefully.
Before coming, the editor had already imagined Zhang Lin's various reactions, and he had even deduced the lines several times. However, Zhang Lin's reaction was completely beyond his expectations.
Calm, calm. It seems that no matter how much profit copyright can bring him, it can't affect his current mood.
"Editor, what do you think of my work?" Zhang Lin curled the corners of his mouth, looking very confident.
"Very well, otherwise it wouldn't be so hot. Although the editor didn't know why Zhang Lin asked this, he still answered truthfully.
"Then what do you think I made by selling the copyright for only two million?" Zhang Lin smiled evilly, and immediately made the editor stunned.
"Thisβ" The editor didn't know what to say for a moment.
Two million, for Zhang Lin, does not seem to be a very large amount, you must know that this month's manuscript fee alone, readers' tips plus subscriptions, there are nearly one million.
"This price is not enough to impress me at all, and I am not short of money at the moment, so I don't have to sell, you have to let me see the sincerity of your group publishing house. β
Zhang Lin was like an experienced businessman at this time, and he was indifferent to the conditions of editing. The initiative was firmly grasped in his own hands in an instant, so that the other party fell into a passive situation all of a sudden.
"My work, I can also wait for the money, remake it myself, be a shareholder myself, and maybe bring me greater profits, so how much do you think it will be for just two million?"
Zhang Lin knew that this novel was remade into a TV series before, and after the movie, it became all the rage and became the originator of emotional film and television.
This is undoubtedly a huge business opportunity for Zhang Lin.
"Then according to you, what is the right price?" For a while, the editor Hua Kaigui didn't know how to make a price, so he asked Zhang Lin directly.
"I don't want cash, I want dividends. β
Zhang Lin knows how profitable this film and television work is, so since there is such an opportunity in front of him, Zhang Lin naturally can't let go of such a good opportunity to make money.
"Share dividends?" The editors were a little dazed, not knowing Zhang Lin's intentions.
"The simple meaning is that I will directly hand over the copyright of this work to you, and I will occupy a part of the profit dividends obtained from the film and television works you have made. β
"In this case, if the remake becomes a film and television work that is not as popular as I imagined, then the money I get will be reduced accordingly, or even none. β
"But if the film and television ratings become popular, I will get more profits, that's what it means. β
The reason why Zhang Lin made such a decision is because the portrayal of emotions in this film and television work is very delicate, which can touch the hearts of many people, especially the ignorant love of teenagers, which can make many people have endless aftertaste, which is a big selling point.
"Mr. Zhang Lin, you are really wise. The editor didn't expect that Zhang Lin would make such a request.
"In this case, I'll go and ask my superiors to get back to you later, you wait a minute. The editor also felt very curious, Zhang Lin was so confident in his work and proposed such a novel way to sign a contract.
However, the final decision still has to be affirmed by the superiors.
"Please. β
Zhang Lin said with a smile.
Then, I ordered a cup of coffee and tasted it to myself.
On the other hand, after the editor called his leader and reported Zhang Lin's proposal, his superiors were also a little surprised, but he still agreed to Zhang Lin's request.
It's just that the shares occupied are not very high, only 10 percent. In other words, Zhang Lin can get 1 million for 10 million earnings.
If you want to get 2 million, then the income of film and television will reach 20 million. This is already in the category of fire for the current domestic film and television works.
It's just that Zhang Lin is extremely confident.
Subsequently, the contract was finalized, and Zhang Lin did not have any objections, and in this way, the copyright of "The Girl Who Chased Together in Those Years" was given to the group publishing house for use.
"It's just that I hope that when the film and television start shooting, I can participate in it, and be a screenwriter? After all, this is my work, I think I should have this right!" Zhang Lin doesn't want his work to be ruined in the hands of others.
So, there is such a clause in the contract.
"No problem. The editor couldn't agree more. "That's no problem, the script itself is your work, and you will be the screenwriter, I think it will definitely help the filming. In addition, if you find the crew, we will notify you as soon as possible. β
Hua Kaifugui also knows a lot about publishing, looking at Zhang Lin's eager appearance, he said with a smile.
"Well, I'm waiting for good news. "Zhang Lin is a very good director himself, and he can grasp the essence of his own script, and if he lets someone else be the screenwriter, he may adapt his storyline into something.
In this way, it not only ruined the classics, but also indirectly affected Zhang Lin's fame and interests. Therefore, Zhang Lin attaches great importance to this point.
After that, I took the contract back to my home and started the live broadcast journey.
In the past half a month, Zhang Lin's popularity has basically stabilized, and the popularity of the live broadcast in the room is nearly 3 million, and he is already a well-known star anchor on the live broadcast platform.
When fans saw Zhang Lin start broadcasting, they rushed to watch and irrigate.
Zhang Lin also enjoyed such an environment, sang a few songs, and fans brushed up on gifts.
"By the way, let me tell you a good news, you should also know that the major music conservatories have selected top talents, and then participate in the affairs of the Voice of the Imperial Capital!" Zhang Lin suddenly remembered something in the live broadcast room and said.
The barrage rolls wildly.
In itself, many people pay attention to entertainment in this world, so as soon as Zhang Lin said it, others immediately knew about it.
"Of course, I heard that it is going to start, just next month, so I'm looking forward to it!"
"I'm a fan of The Voice, and I've been chasing it for several seasons in a row!"
"I also think that the Voice column is simply a good hit, the contestants in it are all handsome men and beautiful women, and the strength is also very strong, it is a high-standard show. β
"I'm Cao, anchor, don't tell me, have you participated in The Voice of the Imperial Capital?"
"By the way, I remember that the anchor seems to be a student of a certain conservatory, so isn't that fully qualified for the competition?"
"Wow, really, if the anchor is going to participate, I will definitely go to the scene to cheer you on. β
Sailors have made their own statements.
Zhang Lin was very surprised, he wanted to surprise his fans, but he didn't expect that there was someone in the audience who had an unpredictable prophet and revealed the good news that Zhang Lin was about to announce.
"Sure enough, there are a lot of talents in the barrage, yes, the news I want to share with you is that I passed the selection competition and became the representative of our college, and I will participate in the voice contest held nationwide. β
Zhang Lin is very happy, after all, such a stage is a symbol of glory for him.
"I think the anchor itself should enter the entertainment industry, not the live broadcast industry, after all, there is still a big difference between Internet celebrities and celebrities. I support anchors and enter the entertainment industry. β
"That's right, with the anchor's appearance and talent, he must be able to mix well in the circle. β
"I only care about the live broadcast bringing us good works, "Earth", "Confession Balloon" is so good to hear and explode, I only need to open my player now, and I play these songs in a loop. I feel like I've lost interest in other songs. β
