Chapter 14 Making Americans' Money
With the name of a well-known young writer, Zhang Junsheng is not bad in the literary circle.
The main thing is that he is very low-key, rarely makes any shocking remarks, basically just a quiet shoe novel, and then participates in the event according to An Shaoyang's arrangement...
No one targeted him, after all, "The Little Prince" sold more than 20 million copies, and that was someone else's ability!
The most important thing is that his novels are published directly, and he has never submitted them to mainstream literary magazines such as "Harvest" and "People's Literature", and there is no direct conflict between everyone!
Needless to say, Qiantang has pleasant scenery.
The southeast shape wins, the three Wu metropolises, and Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times.
The smoke willow paints the bridge, the wind curtain is green, and there are 100,000 people.
In recent years, there has been a faint feeling of the fourth largest film and television center, and several new film and television production companies have been established.
It seems that Zhang Junsheng is not the only one who has vision!
Relying on the rising Zhejiang Provincial Satellite TV and the support of the local government, last year, three TV drama production companies emerged: Yongle, Aoki and Huaqi!
This time period is when traditional literary adaptations are most popular.
The role of the screenwriter is much higher than that of the director!
China Resources hugged Haiyan;
Rong Xingda has solemnity and Wang Yao;
That's why they can shoot one after another!
There is no doubt that this time, in addition to bringing the relationship closer, the most important thing is the adaptation right!
Now we all know the importance of having a good book!
Really, in this era, what everyone values is not stars, actors or anything, but the selection department selects films on two points: human favor and the TV series itself!
Otherwise, the two TV series "Wind and Rain" and "Winter Solstice" will not be able to star?
These are all TV series starring first-line actors!
……
Sheraton Hotel, private room.
An Shaoyang is talking nonsense to several successful people in suits and leather shoes: "It's still your TV series to make money, one, two, three... Tsk, it's enviable just thinking about it!"
“… Alas, Brother An, you don't know, there are too many names in this. ”
One of the chubby men said with a bitter face: "The public relations fee is too outrageous! Not to mention anything else, you have to invite the heads of a few TV stations to watch the film, right? It's just a hard-earned money, just a superficial scenery!"
An Shaoyang said: "... Be modest, I thought I didn't know, the drama "Divorced Woman" completely made Yongle stand firm, and I heard that it made a lot of money!"
"Where, more than one million is a drop in the bucket for Brother An, what is it?"
The chubby middle-aged man shook his head, his name is Chen Lidong, a screenwriter, he has participated in the development of many film and television dramas, and after accumulating contacts, he has drummed up Yongle Film and Television by himself.
The current film and television companies, except for Huayang, are basically established by some film and television workers who have the ability and connections.
Standing next to Chen Lidong was Zhao Fang, the leader of Hua Qi: "That is, I heard that Zhang Junsheng spent 30 million on the study of animation movies, when will it be released?"
An Shaoyang was a little embarrassed, he didn't know about Zhang Junsheng's affairs, he was only responsible for taking care of Zhang Junsheng's book business, so he could only say vaguely: "... Definitely..."
"Still young people have the courage, 30 million to make anime!"
It always feels like something is being ironic...
"It's so lively, what do you say?"
Zhang Junsheng pushed the door and walked in.
"Nothing, I'll introduce you. ”
An Shaoyang saw Zhang Junsheng and hurriedly pulled him over: "Zhang Junsheng!"
"These are all Qiantang film and television investors!"
"Chen Lidong!"
"Hello;"
"Zhao Fang!"
"Mr. Zhao;"
"Zhao Jianyong!"
"Hello..."
After turning around and saying hello, Zhang Junsheng sat down.
Those people were looking at him, although he was young, dressed very casually, he had a bearing that did not match his age at all, and the whole person seemed calm and calm, but his eyes were extremely bright, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife, piercing directly into people's hearts, so that these old cannons felt nervous when they looked at him.
"I heard that you spent 30 million on anime?"
"Someone has to take this step, otherwise our movies and TV series will always be inferior to others due to technical limitations!"
Zhang Junsheng replied very casually...
"I've long heard that Writer Zhang doesn't take the usual path, and when I see it today, it's really worthy of his reputation!"
"Where, where..."
Although he knew that it was a polite remark, Zhang Junsheng still felt very cool...
……
"My work is not very suitable for adaptation into a TV series, because what I write is not a story stream, and it is difficult to adapt!"
At the dinner table, Zhang Junsheng calmly admitted his 'shortcomings'.
“… Be modest, "The Legend of Wukong" sold a million copies..."
""The Legend of Wukong" is because I use a romantic narrative technique, and the whole story has no main line, and it is the most difficult to make up!"
"What about "The Wind Rises in Longxi"?"
“… Forget it, "Three Kingdoms" is too influential, I don't dare to challenge it!"
Chen Lidong nodded, before they met, he knew Zhang Junsheng, and he also inquired about people in the circle, and knew that this person was actually very talkative, and he was not the rich second generation who caught a lot of contempt in his bones!
The reason why I have been suppressing the adaptation right of my work is mainly because I am afraid that it will be changed - the TV series version of "Triple Gate" is really spicy enough...
"Has Writer Zhang been admitted to film school?"
"Well, the interview has already passed, just wait for next year's college entrance examination!"
Zhang Junsheng looked up, it was Zhao Fang of Hua Retreat.
"Are you interested in acting?
Chen Youpeng is definitely one of the most popular TV drama actors in China now, with him as the foundation, and then find a few drama bones with a few small flowers, with Hua Qu's connections, it is not difficult to get to the star.
It's a pity that Zhang Junsheng has no interest in acting.
“… No need. ”
Shaking his head, Zhang Junsheng said: "I was admitted to the film academy, mainly because I wanted to learn how to be a director..."
"Wow, won't I call you Director Zhang in the future?"
“… No, I just want to find out, I'm not really ready to be a director, my dad still expects me to take over!"
The people here have nothing to say in a few words, and they don't know what he wants to do...
In fact, it is very simple, the reason why Zhang Junsheng was admitted to the film academy is not only because there are many girls, but the most important thing is that he is only 19 years old, can't he go to college?
……
In the back seat of the business car, Zhang Junsheng rubbed his braincase, he had a very bad amount of alcohol, and after only drinking two glasses of wine, his brain was dizzy...
looked at An Shaoyang complainingly, "Uncle An, if there is such an occasion again, don't call me, it's boring!"
Fortunately, he has a good drink, even if he is drunk, he will not talk nonsense, otherwise, what should he do if he tells the biggest secret?
An Shaoyang smiled: "I mainly want to accumulate some contacts for you..."
"What do you want to do with connections?"
"We're not going to make a movie, we don't know anyone..."
"Don't worry, I'm not in the same rank as them, I want to make American money... Wait a minute, Tian Xiaopeng's call is coming!"
