Chapter 46: The Second Story

Teng Huatao finally let go of Mu Ming and was poured down by the crew.

Mu Ming looked at Teng Huatao, who was carried back by Cao Yu and the other two, and secretly decided that if he became a director in the future, he would definitely not hold any finale banquet.

Will the staff be dissatisfied? One person will be given a red envelope of 1,800 and a bonus. In these days, it is not as pleasant to give anything as to give money directly.

Teng Huatao took some time to think about the script of "33 Days of Broken Love", and Mu Ming couldn't urge, so he could only wait according to his temperament. Just as school was about to start, Mu Ming temporarily put this matter in her heart and began to write a new book by hand.

Half a year has passed since the release of "Soul Ferry". During this time, Mu Ming did not have a new book, and he has been staying in school and the crew, and the popularity brought by the hot sale of books has long subsided. The most obvious is Mu Ming's Weibo, the number of fans has basically not increased during this time, and the activity of likes and comments has also decreased a lot.

Lin Caiwen urged Mu Ming more than once, whether it was the second part of "Soul Ferry" or a new book. Taking advantage of the bonus period of popularity growth, the sales of new books will inevitably be good, which can further stimulate the increase in popularity, whether it is for fame or profit, it is the best choice.

It's a pity that Mu Ming was wandering between the school and the crew, obsessed with learning and couldn't extricate herself, so she missed this period.

"It's okay, it's precipitated like this, and those who stay are loyal fans, which can be regarded as a solid foundation. Mu Ming said to Lin Caiwen on the phone, and at the same time comforted herself with these words. Anyway, it's useless to regret it at this time, so I still want to open it.

"You're in a good state of mind. Lin Caiwen teased, and then emphasized: "Anyway, you should start writing a new book as soon as possible." The publishing house may be a little busy in a while, so your book will be completed early, and we can arrange the schedule for operation. ”

"Arrange a schedule?" Mu Ming said curiously: "You have signed a new book again?" "The sales of books are different from the release of movies, and they are generally not afraid of colliding with any popular books, the only thing to consider is not to have a civil war between the books in their hands.

"You're quick to react. Lin Caiwen's tone was a little joyful: "I have to thank you, you said that we should pay more attention to some serialized novels in magazines, which is really a good choice." This new book is something we started working on a few months ago, and we only recently snatched it from Changjiang. ”

"It's the Yangtze River Publishing House again, and their other president can't hate you to death. Mu Ming grinned. He remembered that Lin Caiwen's last book of "The Language of Floating Creatures" was snatched from the Yangtze River.

"Which book is it this time?" Mu Ming asked curiously.

Lin Caiwen hesitated for a moment, but still didn't hide it: "It's a novel about antiques, called "Dumb House", and the quality is quite good." Mu Ming grew up with Guangcai in his prime, and seeing that he would have to cooperate for a long time, Lin Caiwen had fewer scruples.

"Oh, "Dumb House". Mu Ming sighed, he had read this novel in his previous life, and it was very good. However, what he sighed was not this novel, but the time when he was activated by this book, that time of reading books.

"By the way, the author of this book is a very beautiful girl, do I want to introduce you to you? Lin Caiwen naturally didn't know the ripples of memory that Mu Ming was evoked, so he teased.

"Sister Lin, you're only thirty, can you not be like my mother's age, always holding back to introduce girls to me. Mu Ming said speechlessly.

"Ha!" Lin Caiwen laughed: "Okay, in order not to look like an aunt, I won't say it." ”

was interrupted by Lin Caiwen, and Mu Ming's emotional thoughts were also interrupted. Mu Ming said jokingly: "I didn't say you, Sister Lin." There are so many magazines in circulation, why do you keep ruining the book "Novel Painting". ”

"Floating Creatures" and "Dumb House" are both serialized novels from the magazine "Novel Painting". It seems that the treatment given by the glorious years is quite high, and the authors of these two books should have directly defaulted with the magazine and then signed a contract with this side.

"We can't help it, if you think about it from the perspective of quality, length and possibility, the serialization on "Novel Painting" is more suitable for us. Lin Caiwen said helplessly.

"If you want me to say, anyway, your relationship with the Yangtze River is so bad, just buy "Dragon Family" too. Mu Ming was not responsible for jokingly and said: "In this way, I can also urge the draft through you and Jiangnan in the future." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, it's still a normal business competition, if we dare to touch "Dragon", then it won't be so simple as competition. Lin Caiwen said angrily: "Besides, how much cost do we have to dig up such a great god." ”

"By the way, I heard that your new book is going to be written about the Republic of China?" Before ending the call, Lin Caiwen asked curiously.

"Yes. The main line of the content is somewhat similar to "Soul Ferry", and it is also a type of supernatural ghost suspense. It's just that I think the atmosphere of the Republic of China is more feeling, so I put the background of the story in the Republic of China period. Mu Ming gave a brief introduction.

"Oh, that's right. Okay, then you should hurry up anyway. Lin Caiwen finally habitually urged again, and then hung up the phone. She has confidence in Mu Ming's strength, and it is a similar theme to the previous book, so just get a rough understanding.

Lin Caiwen can have a rough understanding, but Mu Ming himself can't. Putting down the phone, Mu Ming's thoughts began to spread.

In a circle, if you want to have a lot of influence, you have to have a lot of resources. The reason why these capital groups such as Wanda , Ali and Teng Xun have entered the cultural industry and are in the upper reaches of the food chain is not because they have the resources of funds, cinemas and public opinion platforms in their hands.

It is precisely for this reason that Mu Ming wants to participate in the movie "33 Days of Broken Love". The resources of a best-selling novel author are nothing more than a few valuable IPs, but the investment producer of a blockbuster movie has a completely different identity.

Mu Ming's original plan for her second book was to play a big game. "Legal High", "Black Mirror", "Interstellar", he was originally going to choose one of these three as his second work. With the quality of these three works, any of them can make him "a god with one book".

But before he actually started writing two lines, Mu Ming found that he was completely stupid13. A work of this level, even if you have seen it completely countless times, it is not at all depicted by your own strength. The only result of forcible creation is to destroy the original masterpiece.

Forget it, you still have to write what you can. It's a big deal to find time to go to the screenwriters' associations of these countries and register these excellent scripts in advance. Later, when the conditions allow, take it out.

Knowing that her ability was insufficient, Mu Ming lowered her horizons by two levels. In the end, I decided to write a story about the ghosts and ghosts that I am good at.

For example, "Heartless Mage"?
