Weekends are always short, and only a few people in the Hanlin Culture Media Company are working overtime, and most of them are on vacation.

Now a few people who are working overtime instantly have a feeling of being investigated, and the big boss is here!

Taking care of Zhang Chu's identity as a student, any meetings in the company are generally held when he is not in school, and it is the same now.

Ye Shumei looked at Zhang Chu curiously, she knew the truth of the matter from Zhou Kang yesterday, but she still wanted to ask.

"Boss, what is the content of your new book, you actually need to go to a psychiatrist for consultation?"

Zhou Kang on the side also listened curiously, the theme of Zhang Chu's new book is closely related to the development of the company!

Zhang Chu sat on the chair and pursed his mouth: "If I write too much fantasy themes, I want to write something with a realistic flavor, I think the element of love is very good." There was more or less this element in the previous works, but it has not been really described as the main content, so give it a try. ”

Anyone has the pinnacle of writing, and "The Da Vinci Code" has become the pinnacle of Zhang Chu's business so far, and no matter what he continues to write in his later works, it will inevitably be compared together.

That's a simple transformation, anyway, Zhang Chu has never been really stereotyped, and the subject matter of writing is quite changeable.

"In fact, there is a market for love now that it has been written, and many famous books are also love. Don't worry about new books, now your old books can last for a while!"

"That's right, they all say that you have more male readers, but in fact, there are still a lot of female readers. It's okay to write about love to expand the readership, and by the way, precipitate and precipitate. ”

Both of them have worked as editors, so they naturally know the result of readers' aesthetic fatigue, and many people strike while the iron is hot, and publish more books while the iron is hot, but this will quickly make readers bored with it.

The genre of each of Zhang Chu's books is almost different, which makes his readers very diverse, and it is also easy to cause the readers of this book to not read the next book.

There are pros and cons to everything, but overall the pros outweigh the cons!

In the past year, Zhang Chu has released quite a lot of excellent works, and readers' wallets are almost empty.

Every time a new book is released, some people predict that he will run out of talent, predicting that his new book will decline in terms of quality and sales, but he is always slapped in the face.

The new book is called "Norwegian Wood" and was inspired by the Beatles' song of the same name. Uncle Zhou, you will ask the legal department tomorrow to see if there will be any infringement, and if so, we will communicate and discuss with the other company. ”

Originally, Zhang Chu didn't want to say his name so quickly, but he was a little worried about legal disputes.

Rather than waiting for the controversy to arise after the listing, it is better to solve it now!

In the future, the book will not only be released in China, but will definitely be translated to other countries.

The Beatles is not just a band, he is a pop culture phenomenon, and Zhang Chu's current shooting horse can't compare to the influence of this band.

Although the Beatles have been disbanded, their fans are all over the world, and if there is a commercial dispute with the Beatles, it will definitely be themselves who will suffer!

What's more, the book was originally inspired by the other party's songs, even if the inspiration was generated by Haruki Murakami and not him.

If it is a mess, it will not look good for both parties, especially if it has just been released.

The title of the book is a double-edged sword, and it can be associated with the Beatles' songs, even if they are not the most well-known songs of the band, but they have a natural advantage in terms of publicity.

Zhou Kang shook his head and said: "I can give you the answer now, there is no infringement in using the title of the song as the title of the book." The title of the song and the title of the book are very separate in terms of writing because of the different fields!"

"This is the situation in China, tomorrow you can confirm with Random House about the foreign writing law, no problem, of course the best situation. Zhang Chu added, it is better to find a professional to confirm this kind of major event.

Ye Shumei thought about it in her mind, she didn't seem to have heard this song of the Beatles.

What kind of song can make Zhang Chu want to write a love film?

She lowered her head and quietly opened the QQ Music app, added this song to the playlist first, and then listened to it quietly.

After talking about his own affairs, Zhang Chu clapped his hands, "You shouldn't be looking for me just for this, right?"

Ye Shumei hurriedly locked the screen of her mobile phone, then handed over the folder in front of the seat, and explained: "Now there are mainly two or three animation companies that are looking for us, and they want to join forces with us to make "Those Things About That Rabbit" into an anime for broadcasting, and we think we can almost try it." ”

Although the manga of the rabbit is updated slowly, it should be barely enough if it is only the first season.

"Then why didn't you bring Tian Kangle, the president of Smart Comics, to discuss the anime adaptation? Even if he hasn't eaten pork, he's seen a pig run. ”

Whether it is an author or a company, the income of comics is mainly composed of three types, the most basic is the author's manuscript fee, followed by the click share of online paid comics, and finally the copyright licensing income and derivative income.

The manuscript fee is divided into the payment of the magazine during the serialization period and the royalty after the release of a single book, which is only the most basic for comics, and the majority is the cross-media development of animation, movies and games.

It is impossible for Hanlin Culture Media to leave the gold mine on their side undeveloped, and they bought the smart comics that were about to go bankrupt for today!

If you can successfully change the comic into anime, then you can make money on several major video websites, and it would be even better if it could also be sold to TV stations or set-top box content providers, and the influence of anime will emerge in all directions.

At the beginning, the Audi Double Diamond Company was just an agent of four-wheel drive, and later found that doing original work seemed to make more money than acting as an agent, so he made his own animation to sell derivatives!

It is impossible for Hanlin Culture Media to shoot animation by itself, nor can it find a factory to produce peripheral products, but they can authorize it externally.

Children's money is probably the best money, a genuine toy is often hundreds, and the profit range is too large!

"Today we are just discussing the intention, if you have this intention, we will find Lao Tian together. ”

"Anime adaptation is definitely a big trend, and of course I won't object to it! It's just that these productions still have to be made with dim sum, and if they are messed up, it will be too wasteful. ”

Zhang Chu clearly knows how wide the range of these derivatives is, not to mention the T-shirts, and even the enamel cups printed with black and white rabbits have been sold a lot.

Just the small thing of the keychain, merchants can toss out the image of the honor guard rabbit of the three armed forces and the animal image of the Western powers, not to mention the common card wallets, pillows, cushions, jewelry accessories, clothing, and mobile phone cases!
