Zhou Lin estimated that he would never forget this night for the rest of his life.

In his past and present lives, Liu Tao was a star that Zhou Lin liked very much. Last time, Liu Tao was completely in a state of losing consciousness, although he was very crazy about asking for it, it always gave Zhou Lin a strange feeling.

This time, both men were very awake and knew what was going on.

Although it was the first time that they had intermingled, it was the freshest feeling for them.

The early morning sun sprinkled on the bed through the gap in the curtains, sprinkled on Zhou Lin's face, and when he opened his eyes, he found that there was no shadow of Liu Tao around him.

Sitting up, Zhou Lin saw a note at the head of the bed, like a shot in a TV series.

"You won't say you won't meet again in the future, right?" Zhou Lin grabbed the note nervously.

"I'll go back and clean up first, and I'll see you at the celebration banquet in the evening. ”

Liu Tao's words have always been very simple, and Zhou Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

At noon, Shang Yunyan drove to pick up Zhou Lin and briefly watched the first season of "Wulin Gaiden".

The film is better than Zhou Lin imagined, probably because the investment is in place, whether it is the construction of the scene or the use of props, it is stronger than the original.

Just looking at Tong Xiangyu played by Liu Tao, looking at the unfamiliar Bai Zhantang, Li Dazui, Lu Xiucai, and Guo Furong on the screen, Zhou Lin always has a little feeling of being a play.

But Shang Yunyan is worthy of being a famous director in the TV industry for many years, although Zhou Lin's script is written in detail, his grasp of the rhythm and various jokes is also extremely exquisite and arbitrary, and even adds a lot of personal judgments, so that the final film effect is somewhat unexpected by Zhou Lin.

Watching it all the way, Zhou Lin was also amused, as if he had returned to the days when he watched "Wulin Gaiden" for the first time in 2006, so happy. Forget all the sorrows and worries of life.

After watching the film, Shang Yunyan introduced the sales of "Wulin Gaiden" to Zhou Lin, and at present, five satellite TV stations have purchased the first round of broadcast rights, with an income of 13 million, plus the distribution rights of DVDs, with a total income of more than 15 million.

Remove all kinds of inputs. The net income of the first season is about five million, and this is not counting the foreseeable second and even third round of broadcasting rights.

According to Zhou Lin's estimates, in the first quarter alone, the income can reach 18 million or even 20 million.

Zhou Lin's investment reached 18% in the first season of "Wulin Gaiden", so that his return on investment can reach more than three million, which is quite a good return ratio.

If you count the screenwriter's fees, Zhou Lin earns even more than Shang Yunyan, a big investor and director!

It's only the first season, once the first season hits. The revenue of the second, third and fourth quarters can be imagined, and the total sales are likely to exceed 100 million. As a screenwriter and investor, Zhou Lin may even earn 20 million!

"It's still the film and television industry that makes money quickly. Zhou Lin sighed.

Shang Yunyan said with a smile: "That has to be earned, you haven't seen many big bosses rushing into the film and television industry with checks, and finally losing their criing fathers and mothers." They don't think that the film and television industry can make money, but they feel that it is a bottomless pit that cannot be filled with no amount of money. ”

Zhou Lin smiled: "I have a good script, you have the ability to direct, and you have a good actor." We don't make money, who makes money. ”

"That's right. We have had a great time working together and I intend to push the filming of the second season as soon as possible. Let's see when the script will come out?" Shang Yunyan was already a little impatient.

Zhou Lin said: "I will write to you whenever you want it." ”

Shang Yunyan smiled bitterly: "I can be regarded as convinced of you, it seems that writing a script is easier than us drinking tea." ”

The two chatted all afternoon, and in the evening they participated in a grand celebration banquet.

The protagonist of the banquet is naturally Shang Yunyan, and the second person who attracts attention is Zhou Lin.

In fact, in the Chinese film and television industry, the status of screenwriters has not been very high.

Especially screenwriters who are struggling to find job opportunities and filming opportunities. The status is even more pitiful. Many times screenwriters are used as footcloths, pick them up and wipe them when they need them, throw them in the corner when they don't need them, and take out the footcloths as scapegoats when they have problems, and the most important thing is that they don't make much!

Unless famous. Unless a blockbuster script can be written, the screenwriter has a certain right to speak. But in any case, when the screenwriter and the director have a conflict, they are always the weak side.

Zhou Lin is different.

First of all, the script of "Wulin Gaiden" is very classic, and the actors who filmed the first season really admired these jokes that Zhou Lin came up with, and threw themselves on the five bodies that he admired.

Secondly, everyone is a smart person, and it can be seen that the first season of "Wulin Gaiden" will definitely be popular, and the second season may start filming at any time. At present, the script is still in Zhou Lin's hands, as long as he crooks his pen, it is possible that the protagonist will become a supporting role, a few more scenes in the supporting role, and a few more lines in Xiaolongtao.

A few more lines and a few less lines may not seem like much to the audience, but they are too important for the actors. Maybe if any line is remembered by the audience, they will become popular!

So Zhou Lin became the most popular person at the banquet except Shang Yunyan, whether it was the actors or the staff, they all gathered around him to toast.

Zhou Lin, who was drunk a lot, was helped into the car in a daze, and was sent back to the hotel, only remembering that someone gently took off his clothes and wiped his body, but he never saw who the owner of the hands was.

Early the next morning, Zhou Lin woke up with a headache, and was recalling last night's events, Liu Tao came in from outside the door and said, "Woke up?"

"Sister Liu, why are you here?" Zhou Lin asked in surprise.

Liu Tao said: "Who do you think sent you back, undressed you, and helped you wipe your body?"

Zhou Lin scratched his head and said a little embarrassed: "Sister, you are so good to me." ”

Liu Tao's expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "You're hungry, I went down and bought breakfast." ”

Although it was just bread, porridge, and ham slices bought from the breakfast shop outside, Zhou Lin was very satisfied. Especially looking at Liu Tao's busy back, he has the feeling of becoming a married man, getting up in the morning to enjoy breakfast, and his wife is preparing clothes for him to wear when he goes out today.

It was a feeling, very warm.

After breakfast, Liu Tao asked Zhou Lin how the script of the second season was, and the two chatted and chatted, and somehow they went to bed.

Fighting one after another, in the interval of a certain battle, Liu Tao struggled to stick his head out of the quilt, panting and said: "You are about to miss the plane!"

"If you can't catch up, you can't catch up. Zhou Lin replied in a dull voice, pulled Liu Tao's leg and pulled her back into the quilt. (To be continued.) )
