"Choose from my novels?" Wu Xiaotian raised his head and looked at Han Chen and asked. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Yes!" Han Chen nodded and said firmly.

The success of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" this time made Han Chen keenly feel that Wu Xiaotian's novels, whether it is the plot or the characters, have great potential for adaptation.

"Xiaotian, you have written several novels now, including "Dragon Babu" and "Smiling Proud Jianghu", if it is adapted into a TV series, I think it will not be worse than the ratings of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". ”

"I went through these two novels again last night, and now I have a rough script framework, as soon as Xiaotian agrees, I will start writing the script immediately, and it is estimated that it will take three months to get it done.

During this period, you can also work on finding actors and other work at the same time. Wait until July, we can officially start filming, this time we can spend a little more, five months or half a year, and wait until the completion is ready to be released, which happens to be the prime time of the Spring Festival, and then we will rush again and continue to create a new ratings record. ”

Han Chen spoke a little faster, and he was very excited to say what was in his heart.

According to this rhythm, the next TV series can catch up with the Spring Festival holiday, and it can also make up for the regret that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was not broadcast during the Spring Festival because of time.

Han Chen has always believed that if "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" can be broadcast during the Spring Festival, the ratings will definitely be able to go to the next level.

"Okay, which one do you want?" Wu Xiaotian smiled slightly, blurted out his debut, and was extremely refreshing.

"Ahh

Such a refreshing answer surprised Han Chen very much, and he couldn't speak anymore with a sigh.

He originally thought that even if he and Wu Xiaotian already had the experience of this cooperation, the two sides were relatively familiar, but familiarity is familiarity, and if they really cooperate again, it is estimated that they will have to talk about it.

Because of the success of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he must be more than one director now, and he has seen the value of Wu Xiaotian's novels, and many other directors must be the same, and there are definitely many people who want to obtain the adaptation copyright of Wu Xiaotian's novels.

"Xiaotian!" Zhou Feng next to him was also startled, and looked at Wu Xiaotian with surprised eyes.

Wu Xiaotian smiled, blinked his eyes, and said, "Why do you all look at me like this? Shouldn't I say this?"

"No, no, I'm so happy. Han Chen was startled and hurriedly shook his hand and said.

Wu Xiaotian agreed so neatly, just kidding, it was too late for him to be happy.

"Actually, most of the credit for the TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to have the current ratings is Brother Chen, if it weren't for his director, my novel would still be on the bookshelf. Wu Xiaotian said slowly.

In fact, the success of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" this time is not only due to Wu Xiaotian's novel, but also to the credit of director Han Chen, and this credit is not small.

After all, in a TV series, when the script and actors are the same, the director is actually the soul of the TV series.

"Ahh

"Come on, Xiaotian, don't scold me. ”

Immediately afterwards, he waved his hand and said modestly: "This "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", my director really didn't play a big role, it was a problem of funding at the beginning, if it weren't for Mr. Zhou's investment, I guess I wouldn't even be able to get the money for the copyright of your novel, let alone the filming and recording of the TV series." Even after the filming of the TV series is finished, if it weren't for Xiaotian, this TV series is estimated to have been forcibly acquired by Huaxia Media, or it has been hidden in the snow for a year and a half, and the daylily will be cold by then, where will there be the current ratings. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Feng couldn't help but speak.

He said speechlessly: "You two are enough, and if you continue to praise each other like this, I will get goosebumps when I hear it." Okay, now I'll make a summary, it's not "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is everyone's credit, well, it's okay now. ”

"Haha......"

Wu Xiaotian and Han Chen glanced at each other and laughed.

"Brother Chen, which TV series are you going to film?" Wu Xiaotian took a sip of coffee and continued to ask.

"Heavenly Dragon Babu!" Han Chen hesitated for a moment, and then replied.

This novel, set in the ancient Song Dynasty of China, describes the grievances and ethnic contradictions between the Song, Liao, Dali, Western Xia, Tubo and other kingdoms, and describes all aspects of society, showing a magnificent picture of ancient life.

Han Chen chose between it and "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and still felt that it was better to shoot this first.

"How much are you going to invest?" Zhou Feng's eyes lit up and he also asked.

This time, he invested in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" on behalf of Huaying Film and Television, and achieved great success, which also brought him a lot of voice in Huaying, Film and Television Company.

Therefore, when he heard that Wu Xiaotian and Han Chen were discussing the filming of the next TV series, he immediately wanted to participate.

"Haha, don't worry, Mr. Zhou's investment in this TV series must be helped by Mr. Zhou. Han Chen said with a laugh.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's a lot. ”

"Sixty million. ”

"What?"

This number made Zhou Feng almost vomit out the coffee in his mouth, "I heard it right, sixty million?"

"It's sixty million!" Han Chen shook his head and gave an affirmative answer.

"Why are there so many?" Wu Xiaotian was also surprised, he asked.

"I know you must be surprised, because the filming of the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" TV series only cost more than 30 million yuan in total, and with such a small amount of money, it still produced such good ratings. However, I want to say that there is a reason why I want to invest 100 million yuan in "Dragon Babu". ”

Speaking of this, Han Chen paused, and then continued to explain: "For the filming of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", in fact, I am not satisfied with many things, such as some framing locations, picture special effects, and of course, there are many things that need to be improved in terms of personnel selection for some supporting roles. ”

"For example, the grassland filming in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", we didn't go to the real grassland, but shot in a relatively large grassland, although the effect is okay, but now it has been discovered and complained about on the Internet. Therefore, I want to be able to correct all of them in the production of "Dragon Babu". ”

Wu Xiaotian nodded, he also read those comments on the Internet, and knew that Han Chen was telling the truth.

"Can you have less?" Zhou Feng asked with a sad face.

"What's wrong?" Wu Xiaotian looked at Zhou Feng and asked strangely.

"Hey!" Zhou Feng explained: "This year, we have invested in a lot of big projects, and now the company has not given me a lot of free allocation funds, even if I am applying, I can't get together 60 million." ”

Just heard Han Chen say that he wanted to invest in filming a TV series, he thought that it would only be an investment of 30 or 50 million at most, because "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is only so much. But Han Chen's opening was sixty million, which made him distressed.

"How much can I invest that week?" asked Han Chen.

"Forty million at most, no, fifty million!" Zhou Feng frowned and said.

"This ......" Han Chen said: "This doesn't matter, if there are difficulties on Huaying's side, I can also go out and find other investments, I think with the success of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", this investment should not be difficult to find." ”

"I invested 30 million!" Suddenly, Wu Xiaotian said a sentence.

"What?" Zhou Feng and Han Chen said at the same time.

"Isn't there still a difference of 30 million, I don't need to invest in it, I personally invested 30 million to participate in the filming of "Dragon Babu". Therefore, if you look for other people's investment, you may be able to find it, but other investors must have such and such requirements, and even in the selection of actors, they must consider the opinions of other investors, and maybe some unsuitable actors will be used, so the quality of the TV series will be greatly reduced, so, in this case, it is better for me to invest!"

Wu Xiaotian said with a smile: "Brother Chen, this is the milk powder money I prepared for Beibei, you can't let me lose it all." ”

"Really?" Han Chen asked incredulously.

"Of course it's true!" Wu Xiaotian nodded.

"Hey, Xiaotian, I can't see that you are also a little tyrant!" Zhou Feng said with a smile.

"The problem that Xiaotian said just now is what I'm worried about, if Xiaotian decides to invest now, then there will be no troubles in this regard. And as for making money, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has so far earned more than 40 million yuan in terms of copyright sales alone, and it has guaranteed its capital and made a profit, not counting the subsequent income. ”

Han Chen said, giving Wu Xiaotian a reassurance.

He thought for a while, clapped his hands and said: "Otherwise, I was going to shoot 60 million, of which 10 million was the copyright fee for Xiaotian, since Xiaotian wants to invest, it is better to convert it, Xiaotian only gave 20 million just enough to make up 30 million, and Zhou Zong's 30 million together, a total of 60 million." In this case, the investment ratio of the two of you is just 55, what do you think?"

"Okay, I'm fine. Zhou Feng said for the first time.

What Xiaotian said just now is right, if other investors are involved, they don't know what character requirements the other party has, and if they put forward some special requirements, it will be worth the loss.

However, if Wu Xiaotian invests in it, it will be different, he is in favor of raising his hands, and he is a hundred willingly.

"Yes!" Wu Xiaotian also nodded in agreement.

He decided to participate in the investment of this TV series because he still has a large amount of cash in the bank in his hand, which is not used for the time being, and as Han Chen said, the profitability of the TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" reassures him a hundred times.

In addition, with the popularity of the TV series, his physical books of fiction have also become popular.

According to the figures given to him by Hu Yidao, in the short time that the TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was broadcast, hundreds of thousands of copies of the novel had been sold.

"Haha, that's good, I'll draw up the specific contract later, and you can see if there are any problems that need to be improved. Han Chen said again.

Now, the three of them only agreed verbally, and some specific details still need to be bound by the contract.

"This time, it was the three of us filming the TV series together. I think that with our efforts, this TV series will definitely be able to create a new record. Han Chen finally summed up and said, "Come, let's have a drink for the sake of a new record." ”

He held up his coffee and said as he replaced it.

"Okay, cheers!"

"Cheers!"
