Chapter 160: The reaction of the film company "Resident Evil 1".

The next day, at lunchtime, C Press cafeteria.

Editor-in-chief Zhang made a meal as usual in everyone's strange eyes, and sat in the corner where he sat every day to eat silently, as if he was not affected by the rumors at all.

Unlike usual, this time, as soon as he sat down, Editor-in-Chief Zhang, who had always been calm to the point of indifference, stopped eating, looked at him with cloudy old eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "Is it true that my colleagues are talking about it? That book is really popular?"

The male editor hummed in a low voice, and at the same time glanced around, and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, so he lowered his voice and reported: "Editor-in-chief! Oh no! Now on the market, that book not only has an unexpectedly good reputation, but sales have also begun to boom! I inquired that E Publishing House was preparing a week's worth of goods, and it was sold out in most of the day yesterday, and the printing house there was already working overtime to print day and night! Looking at that posture, I am afraid that it will climb to the top five of the best-selling list!"

"Top 5 bestsellers?"

Editor-in-Chief Zhang's wrinkled eyes twitched unnaturally, this news couldn't be worse.

The male editor sitting next to him was a little worried: "Editor-in-chief! If you really rush to the top five of the best-selling list by that book, even if it is in the top ten, it may attract the attention of the president, and when the time comes, I am afraid it will not be good for you!"

It's not that this male editor cares about Editor-in-Chief Zhang, but that he has been circling around Editor-in-Chief Zhang every day, and everyone knows that he is with Editor-in-Chief Zhang, and once Editor-in-Chief Zhang loses power. His life is certainly not going to be any better.

One is prosperous, one is lost, and he can't help but care.

The worry he just said is exactly what Editor-in-Chief Zhang is worried about.

Although the president usually only does the shopkeeper. He only comes to the club once or twice a week, but if the book is too popular, there will definitely be a villain who wants to sit in his seat and make a small report to the president.

At that time, even if he can barely keep his position, his prestige in the society will be gone, and his work will be even more difficult.

However, just like Xia Xiaoyu said to Fan Huacheng a few days ago. Editor-in-chief Zhang has been in this industry for most of his life, and has walked more bridges than many people have walked, although he has not encountered a similar situation. But seeing that others have encountered it, how to solve this kind of trouble, naturally have some of their own experience.

I saw him bow his head and eat a few more bites of food, and his cloudy old eyes rolled around. A moment later. Just when the male editor next to him wanted to say something more, Editor-in-Chief Zhang finally made a decision.

A deep voice rang out: "Destroy it! Destroy it before it reaches that Cheng dù!"

Male editor: "What do you mean...... Tell those studios, "Isn't that okay?" This kind of thing, once it gets out, our reputation in the industry will stink......"

There are rules in the industry, and the publishing industry also has its own rules, and the most hated by major publishing houses are the practitioners in the industry. In order to drag the opponent back, and cause the opponent to fall into a copyright lawsuit.

But Editor-in-Chief Zhang can only think of this method at present.

"I said it a long time ago. That book will cause a copyright dispute, and since that kid insists on publishing it, he should be taught a lesson! ”

"Then I'll do it after I'm done?"

"Hurry up! Now that the business is done, why don't you just eat some instant noodles?"

Male editor "......"

His arms couldn't twist his thighs, and the male editor was no longer happy, so he had to put down a bite of the uneaten meal and go to do it.

After the male editor left, Editor-in-Chief Zhang began to eat slowly and methodically, and when he saw that there were two dishes he liked in the meals left by the male editor, he stretched out his chopsticks to clip them, and smiled at the corners of his mouth.

This matter, for him, has been resolved, and there is no need to worry about it anymore.

……

Lu Yang didn't know anything about the dirty things that happened in Taiwan, and he was still silently coding in the study at night with a slight frown, writing this book, which was very exhausting.

You have to create that terrifying atmosphere at all times, the pace must be fast, the plot must be crisp, and it must be unexpected, with the original movie Zhuyu in front, if the plot written is too much worse than the original movie, the reader will be very dissatisfied.

Tonight a new movie scene has opened - "Jurassic Park".

There are countless dinosaurs in this movie, such as Tyrannosaurus rex, saber-toothed dragon, velociraptor rex, pterodactyl, ......

The protagonist Meng Fei's current ability is not very strong, in the main god space, with huàn's cultivation of the true exercises, the flying sword is still only in its infancy, and it can't hit far, and the lethality is not very threatening to the dinosaurs with thick skin and flesh, unless it hits the vital point, there is hope to kill with one hit.

This is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that Lu Yang set up a scheming evolutionary in this scene.

The book "Infinite Terror", Lu Yang has been reading it for too long, and the only few impressions are almost those settings, but there is an exception, and that exception is a character who appeared in the early stage - Chu Xuan.

This supporting role is too brilliant, he can calculate every step of the way, and his intelligence is much stronger than that of the protagonist, but unfortunately he is a tragic character.

When Lu Yang wrote this book "Infinite Killing", he also thought about arranging for him to appear in the early stage, but after thinking about it, he decided to let him appear later.

Lu Yang believes that in the first one or two scenes, the theme of infinite streaming, those amazing settings, and amazing plots are enough to attract readers.

It is better to let Chu Xuan appear so early, it is better to be a little later, but when everyone's novelty of this subject matter is reduced, this character will be released to attract the expectations and love of readers again.

"Jurassic Park" is the first show arranged by Lu Yang for Chu Xuan, allowing readers to pay attention to this person, and seeing Chu Xuan's wisdom for the first time is almost demonic.

After that, other movie scenes were arranged to let Chu Xuan shine.

This is also one of the main reasons why Lu Yang frowned from time to time when he coded words tonight, if he wanted to write a character with a superior IQ, it would be very difficult to write if he didn't reduce the IQ of other characters.

If you want to write such a character well, first of all. You have to be able to think of things that most readers can't think of, and that's going to be a lot of brains.

After being reborn, Lu Yang's memory was greatly enhanced. But playing this kind of intellectual game, I still feel tired. Even if you design a plot, you always wonder if there is a better way?

Design again and again, tear down again and again.

In one night, Lu Yang only wrote one chapter, and the good news is that the plot of the next few chapters. He's already designed it.

Originally, these plots had already been designed on the outline, but tonight when I was writing more than a thousand words. Lu Yang himself was not satisfied, so he pushed it down again and redesigned it repeatedly.

……

Day after day, a few days passed in the blink of an eye.

The production company of the "Resident Evil 1" film - the copyright department of the German film company Constantine. A clerk is looking at the company's external email address. A message from Taiwan was found.

The headline of the email caught the attention of the staff member - the popular Chinese novel "Infinite Killing" and Yan zhòng's infringing film "Resident Evil 1" from your company.

The email was written in English, fortunately, although it was Germany, the staff member's English level was still good, and after reading the title, the staff member was a little curious about how a novel infringed on his company's film, so he opened the email.

Then from the message content. I understood what happened.

The email also included more than a dozen scans of the plot of "Infinite Killing", but unfortunately the staff member is not a linguistic genius. He is proficient in English, and only because his current position requires him to know English, an international common language. As for Chinese? And it's also a traditional Taiwanese character, sorry! He couldn't understand it at all.

But after reading the entire content of the email, I still understand the specific things.

Although it feels like this matter is a bit small, after all, it is only the setting and part of the scenes of "Resident Evil 1" in a Chinese novel, but he still reported this matter to the manager.

The manager is a middle-aged man who is strict, and the case says that when the Germans encounter this kind of thing, they will definitely treat it strictly, but after hearing the whole thing, the manager smiled, waved his hand and smiled: "Forget it! Delete that email! Don't pay attention to it!"

"Okay! But why don't you pursue it?" the staff agreed, but they were still a little puzzled.

The manager seemed to be in a good mood at this time, so he explained to him: "Do you know how complicated the copyright of "Resident Evil 1" is? First, this film is co-produced by us and other companies; second, we bought the shooting rights of this movie from Japan; third, you also said that the novel was written by an author in Chinese mainland, but it was published in Taiwan, even if we sue them for infringement, which one do you sue? In Germany? Chinese mainland? Or Taiwan? Sue the author? Or sue the publishing house? Or will they sue two at the same time? If the two sue together, will they have to fight a lawsuit on the mainland and Taiwan at the same time? Okay! Even if you can overcome these troubles and win? How much are you prepared to claim compensation? If the Japanese side says that the copyright belongs to theirs, what should we do? Besides, how much money can a small author compensate us? I heard that the average author on the mainland is very poor, and there is also a small publishing house in Taiwan......

"Okay manager! I see, I'm going to delete that email!"

Without waiting for the usually strict manager to finish speaking, the staff member who had already heard the head raised his hand in surrender, and left the manager's office in a hurry.

It's horrible!

A lawsuit that I don't know if I can win is so involved that even if I win it in the end, I don't know if it will be enough to pay the lawyer's fees.

A few days later, C Press, at noon, was still in the cafeteria, still in that location.

Editor-in-Chief Zhang frowned and asked the male editor who sent the email.

"How's it going?"

The male editor also frowned, and shook his head speechlessly when he heard the words. He deliberately chose the film company of the movie "Resident Evil 1", not only because this movie is the first scene in "Infinite Killing", but also because he has the impression that the Germans are very strict and rigid, and in his imagination, after knowing that his movie is infringed, the Germans will definitely sue for compensation.

Unexpectedly, more than a week has passed since the email was sent, and the other party has not replied even a word.

At this time, "Infinite Killing" has entered the eighth best-selling list of Taiwanese novels that month, and the situation is already extremely dangerous, and the president may know about it at any time. (To be continued......)
