Chapter 12: Rowe
Wu Peng asked, "300 a month, you had a total of almost 3,000 before, you won't be able to last long!"
Xu Zhi smiled: "You don't have to worry about me, I will naturally have a way in the future, I can concentrate on my business after you come, maybe I can earn more!"
Wu Peng thought for a while: "Okay, but I still have to talk to my parents, but it should be fine." ”
Xu Zhidao: "Then you have to get up early in the future and come to my house, in fact, the main thing is to buy goods, and it's very easy to look at the store or something." ”
Wu Peng smiled: "No problem, I often follow my dad to eat, but the place is different, you can rest assured!"
……………………….
Wu Peng's family really has no opinion on this matter, after all, his son may not be able to earn a few hundred more months by selling vegetables by himself, and it is always good to have extra income.
Xu Zhi can also create with peace of mind.
The people of Oriental Daily came after a few phone calls, but in the end they couldn't negotiate the price, and other newspapers were similar, it seems that this has become the norm, even if so many newspapers compete with each other, but none of them will raise the price.
Kowloon, Hong Kong Island: Chow Kee Tea Restaurant
This is a relatively upscale hotel, located in the bustling area of Tsim Sha Tsui East, from the inside of the store can be seen at a glance across the Victoria Harbour, and there is never a vacant seat near the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The area of the store is about 2,000 square feet, but there are hundreds of tables and chairs, at a glance, it is full of heads, Xu Zhi turned around for a long time before finding Lin Wenzhou.
Originally, after the serialization of Iron-blooded Tianjiao ended, Huixing Daily and Xu Zhi also cut off contact, but last night suddenly received a call from Lin Wenzhou, saying that he would make an appointment to come out for morning tea. asked what was the matter, but refused to say it, only replied to the meeting, and then said, the phone bill is expensive..........
I was just about to sit opposite Lin Wenzhou, but when I walked to the side, I found that there was someone sitting opposite, and he was still a person he knew, of course, Xu Zhi knew him, he didn't know Xu Zhi, Xu Zhi was because he played a lot of page games in later generations, after all, the advertisement was a brother who came to cut him.
Lin Wenzhou said with a smile: "Come, Xu Sheng, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Luo Wei, the general manager of "Luo Wei Film Company", this is..."
Before he finished speaking, Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Cheng Long, who doesn't know anyone in Xiangjiang!"
When Cheng Long heard this, he smiled and said: "Xu Sheng has won the award, how can I be famous!"
It's not modest, Cheng Long is telling the truth at the moment, he participated in the filming of a blockbuster last year--- Xinjing Wumen, the theme is good, the acting is good, the heroine is not bad, everything is good, but the box office is not good, the investment of 600,000 is 450,000 at the box office, and Luo Wei, who invested, almost went bankrupt.
And he also participated in some movies before, but they were all supporting roles, although he opened up some fame, but many Xiangjiang people are only familiar with him, just like the old TVB drama bones in the mainland in later generations, they know that there is this person in the movie, but what the name is, or what movies he has acted in, may not be able to say.
Luo Wei saw that Xu Zhi actually knew Cheng Long, and he was so happy: "Xu Sheng, please take a seat, you're welcome, we have a treat today!"
Xu Zhi smiled and sat down
Lin Wenzhou said: "Xu Sheng, yesterday Luo Sheng came to our newspaper office to discuss a matter, and this matter involves you, so today we will call you over to count it together." ”
Luo Wei smiled: "Xu Sheng, I'm a more direct person, so I said it clearly, I've read your novel with Ah Long, we want to change it into a movie, you make a price, I'll buy it directly!"
In recent years, there have been a lot of pirated novels and pirated music, but making movies is different from making TV, these two things can't be played by small companies, and they involve distribution and release, without the authorization of the original author, and it will be fun for the defendant to go to the court if they are really filmed.
Xu Zhi frowned and thought for a while, he had actually guessed the other party's purpose, but there were some things that had to be asked clearly: "Luo Sheng is sure to make this movie?
In this era, there was no computer technology, and wars had to rely on people, and if there were more people, the funds would be too much to bear, and if there were fewer people, it would be too distorted.
The Xiangjiang movies in the 80s rarely seem to depict large-scale wars, or maybe Xu Zhi hasn't seen it, but the TV series Datang Shuanglong Biography released in 04, Xu Zhike likes it very much, and has watched it a lot of times, the plot, the actors have nothing to say, Shi Feixuan shocked countless people's eyes, but the only distortion in the entire TV series is the war scene, there are only a few dozen people in the siege, there are only 100 people in large-scale battles, and there are dozens of troops transferred, in short, it gives people the feeling that --------- is too fake
Xu Zhike didn't want the movie adapted from his novel to become like this.
Luo Wei replied: "Xu Sheng doesn't have to worry about this, you just need to sell the copyright to me, and I'll worry about the rest!"
Xu Zhi understood what he said, in fact, Luo Wei just wanted to buy the copyright first, and then talk about whether to shoot it or not, after all, the copyright was bought, and he had to think about some things from the perspective of making a movie: the war scene that was too expensive should be reduced or canceled, the film fee had to be deleted, and some aspects of the plot had to be changed, otherwise how could he reflect his strength?
If it is filmed according to the original plot, it is the credit of the original author to shoot it well! Some adaptations of online novels in later generations are like this, many wonderful plots, as long as they are filmed according to the original plot, are absolutely classic, but the major investors are all one after the other, and they have filmed a bunch of strange content on the street. relied on the fame of the novel, attracted a bunch of people, and then was scolded miserably.
Xu Zhi looked at Jackie Chan and asked Luo Wei, "Does Luo Sheng want Cheng Long to star?"
Luo Wei frowned and said: "I'm not sure yet, Xu Sheng's novel is written well, but I don't think I understand this movie very well!"
Xu Zhi didn't say much, Liang Wenjing is a wooden guy, in Xu Zhi's memory, Huang Rihua is good to star, it is very in line with the style in the book, but Cheng Long is a little unsuitable.
But he is only a book author, he can't ask too much about making movies, and people can't give him this right, not to mention writers, even screenwriters, in this era, there is no right to speak, and Hollywood is almost --- unless it is a real big name.
Xu Zhidao: "Then I don't know how much Luo Sheng is willing to give?" Since he didn't want to talk anymore, he better go straight.
Luo Wei said: "Sanqian, I don't know what Xu Sheng thinks?"
Three thousand is not a small amount, many movies in this era have a box office of hundreds of thousands, and the investment may be one or two hundred thousand, so it is not bad to be able to buy a copyright with three thousand.
Xu Zhi didn't discuss the price, and asked again: "How many years is the copyright?"
The sale of copyright is not a one-time ***, generally there is an authorization period, that is, within a few years to authorize the other party to shoot, if it has not been filmed or not finished, it must be renewed, strictly if it is not authorized, the purchase cost of the film company in the early stage and the investment that has been filmed will be smashed into the water.
Of course, no writer would do such a great job, and if he really wanted to play like this, he would be rejected by all the film and television circles.
Xu Zhi was an ordinary person in his previous life and in this life, and he can know this because the hero of the Legend of the Condor Heroes had a car accident in 08, which led to a delay in the scheduling, and later Kim Yong gave the authorization to the news, only to know that the copyright still has a term.
Luo Wei obviously didn't expect Xu Zhi to know about this kind of thing, and replied: "Actually, we want to buy permanently, that is, a one-time buyout!"
Xu Zhi smiled: "That's not good, let's talk about the number of years!"
The permanent copyright is not your own, although it is only the copyright of the movie, the Kunlun series in the previous life was not on the big screen, but it may not be in this life, even if you still can't be on the small screen, you can't sell it so hastily, if Kunlun is more famous in the future, someone comes to buy the copyright, and there is no iron-blooded copyright, it will involve copyright legal disputes.
Seeing that Xu Zhi disagreed, Luo Wei said: "Then we first want the exclusive copyright for 5 years, but at this price, we can only sell one thousand." ”
