Chapter 442: The Next Play
Zhang Xiaogang, the head of the film department of 'Uniasia Entertainment', Pan Bin, the director, and Li Jiang, the general manager, are all entangled.
"The fire of "A Chinese Ghost Story" not only made the IP of this movie popular, but also the owl special effects company. Director Pan Bin said.
Listening to Pan Bin's words, the person in charge of the film department said: "The special effects company that our company has worked hard to fatten gave Lin Chen, which is indeed a bit cheap for Lin Chen, but the IP of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is also very much needed by us!"
"I think we can talk to Lin Chen again to see if Lin Chen has a suitable offer in mind, and we will try to use the money to buy the IP of this movie. “
……
General Manager Li Jiang felt that it was really necessary to have a good talk with Lin Chen about copyright, and this time Li Jiang decided to let Zhang Xiaogang and Pan Bin go out at the same time to see if they could buy out the follow-up copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story" at the right price.
Although 'Uniasia Entertainment' is still a big entertainment company in Xiangjiang, with the recession of the entertainment market in Xiangjiang in recent years, 'Uniasia Entertainment' has indeed not had good works in recent years.
What is most lacking in this era is popular IP, for "A Chinese Ghost Story", "Uniasia Entertainment" can be said to be a must-win, Long Qi is Wang Yina is now one of the most popular actors in "Uniasia Entertainment", if with the help of this TV series, it is not impossible to push Wang Yina directly to the second line or even the first line, this is a cost-effective deal "Uniasia Entertainment" is naturally unwilling to miss it.
"The copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is not intended for sale by Chopsticks Brothers Media, unless it is an exchange. ”
When negotiating again, Lin Chen almost didn't give 'Huanya Entertainment' any illusions, and directly stated his bottom line.
Lin Chen's purpose is very direct, that is, the owl special effects company, but this makes it difficult for 'Uniasia Entertainment' to give up, so the negotiations between the two sides have once again fallen into difficulties.
Although the bottom line was given, Lin Chen also prepared a second set of plans, because Lin Chen was not very sure that 'Uniasia Entertainment' would exchange for him after all.
"Mr. Lin, isn't there any other plan?" Pan Bin asked, looking at the deadlocked negotiations.
Lin Chen said: "If you are not satisfied with the plan, I can take a step back, and I can give the singer Jin Jinghua to your company for training." ”
Lin Chen finally said the second set of plans, although Jin Jinghua now only has one famous song "A Chinese Ghost Story", but from the singing of "A Chinese Ghost Story", it can also be seen that the singer's future is limitless, and Lin Chen's plan can indeed be regarded as a concession.
But Pan Bin and Zhang Xiaogang still needed to ask Li Jiang to give Lin Chen a final answer.
Hearing that Lin Chen was willing to take another singer in exchange, Li Jiang was indeed a little moved, because 'Uniasia Entertainment' has its own special effects department, and the owl special effects will also be sold in the future, but for Jin Jinghua's chips, Li Jiang also needs Lin Chen to promise himself another condition.
"Mr. Lin, we agree to the replacement chips of the two sides, but we have one additional condition. Pan Bin said.
"Strings attached!"
Lin Chen thought to himself: "As long as it's not too much, I will agree, because my company really needs a special effects team." ”
Pan Bin said: "We Mr. Li want you to agree, and Li Shan will cooperate with our performance for free for the follow-up copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story". ”
Lin Chen knew that if he agreed to their conditions, in the next year, it was estimated that Li Shan would have to work as a coolie for 'Uniasia Entertainment' for free, but compared to the temptation of the special effects company, Lin Chen felt that it was all worth it.
After listening to the additional conditions of 'Uniasia Entertainment', Lin Chen suddenly thought of one of his own additional conditions.
"I can promise you, but I have one thing attached. ”
Lin Chen said: "I only sell the copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story" to you in the entertainment direction, and the other copyrights are still in our Chopsticks Brothers Media Company. ”
Lin Chen's additional condition made Pan Bin a little confused, in Pan Bin's opinion, "A Chinese Ghost Story" only has the entertainment copyright of TV series and movies, as for other copyrights, Pan Bin really didn't think of it.
The reason why only the entertainment copyright is proposed is because Lin Chen also thought that the game copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story" would be popular in the future, but this concept has obviously not risen yet, so it can't attract much attention, so 'Uniasia Entertainment' naturally only signed an entertainment copyright contract for Lin Chen.
The reason why he signed Jin Jinghua before others was that Lin Chen also wanted to increase the bargaining chips for the 'Uniasia Entertainment' transaction, although Jin Jinghua is indeed a very potential singer, but compared with Chinese songs, Jin Jinghua is more suitable for Cantonese songs, so it is a better choice for Jin Jinghua to develop in 'Uniasia Entertainment'.
As for Li Shan, although he cooperated with the next filming of 'Uniasia Entertainment', Li Shan is still an artist of Chopsticks Brothers Media, and using Li Shan to shoot the TV or the next sequel movie of "A Chinese Ghost Story" can be regarded as propaganda for Lin Chen in disguise, and Lin Chen naturally agreed.
Next, Lin Chen signed a replacement contract for 'Uniasia Entertainment'.
After signing the contract, the 'owl' special effect officially belongs to the chopsticks brothers, although 'Uniasia Entertainment' only accounts for half of the equity of the owl special effect, but the owl special effect is fully shared, and Lin Chen is equivalent to officially controlling the owl special effect.
In fact, Zhang Kuan, the general manager of Owl Special Effects, also knows that he will inevitably be sold, and compared with other companies, Owl Special Effects is also more inclined to Chopsticks Brothers Media.
Lin Chen proposed a plan to let the 'Owl' special effects headquarters be brought to the mainland. Heung Kong retains only a small branch.
In fact, although the owl company is based in Xiangjiang, most of its technical staff are from the mainland, and more than 90% of the special effects customers of the owl special effects are also from the mainland. Lin Chen's plan was agreed by the majority of the people.
"Since everyone agrees with my plan, from today onwards, the owl special effects will also be changed to chopsticks special effects company, and you will belong to the chopsticks brothers media in the future. ”
Lin Chen issued a red envelope to each employee in accordance with the rules, and then all the employees were officially led to the mainland, but Lin Chen temporarily left Li Shan in Xiangjiang, because next 'Uniasia Entertainment' will start the production of the next TV series and movie copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story".
After the success of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the outside world is also paying attention to Lin Chen's next work.
After Lin Chen has his own special effects team, he is also preparing to test his skills, planning the production of the next work, the fire of "Shooting the Condor" and "Condor" also made Lin Chen think of the next TV series. This TV series is also just the right time to let its special effects team try its luck
This one is known as the "Condor" trilogy, the last part of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" According to the story, the separation line between "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" and "Condor" is relatively long, unlike "Shooting the Condor" and "Condor", many characters are at the same age.
The relationship between "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" and "Condor" is only two weapons left in the story of "Condor", and the bloody wind unfolds.
Although the main line with "Condor" is not obvious, "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" also has a lot of shadows left in "Condor".
There are many shadows left by Guo Xiang in "The Legend of the Condor" and "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Slayer", such as the Emei faction throughout the story, the Xuantie Sword and the Gentleman and Lady Sword that Yang Guo gave to Guo Xiang.
The main line of the entire "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" revolves around the competition between the Dragon Slayer Knife and the Heavenly Sword, and at the same time, the protagonist uses Zhang Wuji's personal experience to achieve a good story of children's love.
In terms of character creation, "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is more plump than the two parts, Long Qi is the emotional line, and it is a continuation of the infatuation of many girls in "The Condor" for the protagonist, but compared to "The Condor", the emotional line of "The Legend of the Sky and the Dragon" is even more continuous, and the reason is continuous, Long Qi is the protagonist Zhang Wuji who is reversed, and he is more indecisive on the emotional line, but the attraction and charm of this drama cannot be questioned.
Compared with "Shooting the Condor" and "The Condor", "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" has the most remakes in another time and space, with a total of seven editions. And several of these editions, in each particular era, led the ratings frenzy at that time.
If you want to make this martial arts drama, Lin Chen naturally wants to restore the plot of this martial arts drama, compared with the public IP hype of the first two parts, Lin Chen decided to leave more suspense on "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and wait until the TV series is released to reveal everything, the success of "Shooting the Condor" and "Condor" seems to have accumulated a group of die-hard fans.
At the same time, Lin Chen is also ready to restore.
After the extraordinary results of "A Chinese Ghost Story", countless people have focused their attention on the follow-up plot of this movie, hoping that Lin Chen will make a sequel movie or TV series.
When Lin Chen and 'Uniasia Entertainment' announced the specific replacement plan, it still caused heated discussions in the industry.
""A Chinese Ghost Story" actually gave 'Uniasia Entertainment', I hope 'Uniasia Entertainment' will not ruin the classics!"
"I hope to see the perfect ending of Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen. ”
I hope Lin Chen can also participate in the follow-up filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story". ”
……
After Lin Chen announced the replacement plan, 'Uniasia Entertainment' held a statement, claiming that in the follow-up filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the candidates of Nie Xiaoqian, Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia will not change, and the statement of 'Uniasia Entertainment' also alleviated the dissatisfaction of many mainland Chinese fans.
Although "A Chinese Ghost Story" does arouse the audience's appetite, but in the eyes of the industry, this is just a very ordinary work of Lin Chen, everyone is concerned about Lin Chen and the next work of Chopsticks Brothers Media, whether it is film and television or TV series, Lin Chen can be said to be very popular, and at the same time the transformation is more successful.
Compared with external concern, Chopsticks Brothers Media is also very concerned about Lin Chen's next works internally.
Tiaozi said: "Lao Lin, you used the follow-up copyright of "A Chinese Ghost Story" plus Li Shan and Jin Jinghua and the sale agreement to build a special effects team, what are you going to do next?"
Lin Chen said: "Martial arts works!"
"Martial arts works?"
Tiaozi said: "Lao Lin, do you want to make a sequel to "Condor"?"
Compared with "A Chinese Ghost Story", "Condor" can also be regarded as satisfying everyone's appetite, Long Qi is Guo Xiang is reluctant to watch Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu leave, Tiaozi feels that if this third part is filmed from Guo Xiang's master's perspective, it will definitely be a martial arts drama.
In fact, Tiaozi feels that the first two "Shooting the Condor" and "Condor" are excellent, and even if the third part is qualified, it will attract some audiences.
Huang Xiaoqiang and Zhang Hao also agree with Lin Chen's idea of making a sequel to "Condor", and they also think that this is an absolutely successful martial arts drama.
Tiaozi asked curiously: "Lao Lin, what is this third martial arts drama called?"
It's like "Shooting the Condor" and "Condor" both have a carved character, so the strip thinks that the most three parts should also have a carved character.
Lin Chen said: "The name of the third part is "Heaven and Dragon Slayer"?"
Regarding the general plot, Lin Chen didn't explain too much, Lin Chen wanted to wait for the script and restoration before speaking, after deciding to shoot "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Lin Chen also officially announced the shooting plan, and at the same time marked that this is the sequel to "Condor".
After the news was announced, media reporters and some loyal fans of "Shooting the Condor" and "The Condor" reprinted and commented on Lin Chen's news.
"It's finally time to shoot this third part, and I hope this drama will no longer abuse dogs. “
"I hope that the third part takes Guo Xiang as the perspective, and after reading the original work, I feel that the character of Guo Xiang is very spiritual in the original work. “
"Listening to the name, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the first two, Lin Chen shouldn't be selling dog meat with a sheep's head!"
"No matter what, the level of Lin Chen's martial arts drama is obvious to all, and he will definitely support "Heaven and Dragon Slayer". ”
……
Media reporters also made a big report on Lin Chen's upcoming filming of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".
"Will the start of filming of "Yitian" refresh the new high ratings of martial arts dramas?"
"Compared with the plots of the first two parts, what characters and plots will be added to "Heaven and Dragon Slayer"?"
"Lin Chen aims at martial arts dramas, who competes with the martial arts drama market. ”
……
After Lin Chen announced the news, the online literary circle was not calm for a moment, thinking of Lin Chen's hype and publicity in the previous few times, everyone was wondering if Lin Chen's martial arts drama would continue to be promoted in the same way?
Many fans of "Shooting the Condor" and "The Condor" went to watch the "Condor" and "Condor" accounts uploaded by Lin Chen before, and found that there were no new works uploaded.
Even many new numbers registered in the martial arts category, everyone did not let go, and they all checked it one after another.
Since "Shooting the Condor" and "Shooting the Condor" became popular, not only have the corresponding martial arts TV series been driven, but the martial arts category at the starting point has also become popular, and everyone has taken the characters in "The Condor" and "Shooting the Condor" as the main protagonists, and then launched the martial arts storyline.
Although there are more authors in the martial arts category, and the traffic has also increased, there are only a handful of honest and excellent martial arts. So Rufeng naturally hopes that Lin Chen's third part can be uploaded at the starting point.
But Lin Chen didn't see any movement there.
