Chapter 181: Influence (I)

Previous Chapter

This world works the same without everyone, and emperors, generals, marshals and presidents are no exception, and their strong personal influence is still limited. Only a very small number of great people can stay in people's hearts for a long time or even forever because of what they think and do.

For example, the saints of the East.

For example, there are some philosophers in the West.

Another example is the founding figure of the founding of the People's Republic of China who made great contributions to the establishment of New China......

Therefore, Shen Zhe's departure was only concerned by "his own people", including relatives, friends, and a group of people who may be considered subordinates, as well as loyal readers who mistakenly thought that he had encountered a creative bottleneck, and issued a blessing of "looking forward to Shen Da's return".

He is the author, and in the final analysis, he has to speak with his works.

Shen Zhe once saw a young adult literature author in the author group complaining that after seven or eight years of writing, his book fans have completely changed, and most of the readers who were enthusiastic about chasing books at the beginning have left him. Although his works are still selling well, interacting with book fans is no longer the familiar feeling it used to be, which makes the creation less passionate.

It is not surprising that a book fan may only need one sentence to move, and there may not even be a reason to leave.

Shen Zhe's understanding is not deep.

Not to mention in his life, he is not a public figure in this life, he can only be regarded as a public name.

Fans seem to be better at identifying idols' faces, and his face is a scum of exposure, and he is not in China for the time being.

And now this situation is even worse, all Chinese authors have felt the reality that book fans are becoming fewer and fewer, not because their creative standards have declined greatly, but because of the changes brought about by the information trend of Haohao Tangtang.

Huaxia quickly entered the era of entertainment.

It seems that everything has happened in just two or three years, and the world has begun to become strange.

The joy of reading is gradually replaced by more colorful forms of entertainment, after all, the former also needs to be reprocessed by the reader, and it is more convenient, shocking and effortless without direct eye stimulation.

But no matter what, the content still has to be done by people.

One is created, and the other is recreated according to the original thing, that is, adapted.

The latter is obviously much easier.

Just as Shen Zhe and Zhong left the joke, saying that the future is better and there is no need to worry.

One door is half-closed, and the other will open.

For most Chinese authors, the door has been opened.

Film and television companies, game companies, websites, ...... have set their sights on the source of the adaptation, those literary works.

Nor can content on the web come out of nowhere.

Shen Zhe once heard a joke at that time, saying that the Internet speed is too fast will make people too late to operate, which shows that before this thing is not thoroughly promoted, people still have many misunderstandings, let alone take precautions, even if many people can't do without it.

The Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the publishing industry, and the authors were not ready to deal with it, and they were a little caught off guard.

Underestimating the power of an information explosion.

For a time, there were piles of chaos in the literary and artistic circles.

The conferences and small meetings of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles at all levels are non-stop to study the way of electronic reading on the website, the royalty guidance standard of the adaptation tide, etc., and then summarize it to the headquarters of the Yanjing Federation of Literary and Art Circles to form a resolution; The reporters stared at each other, this group of strange contradictory creatures, aiming at any place where there might be injustice, and by the way, making up some "gossip" to attract people's attention and earn some pocket money; It is enough for the people to be a mere spectator and to please themselves; The authors are nervous, not everyone has the ability to see through the future in an instant, and they are relatively weak like criminals waiting for trial......

The busiest are the representatives of certain literary and artistic capitals.

When the media and the public turned their attention to the two giants, STV and HTV, they were surprised to find that they did not make any big moves.

The most surprising news came out of nowhere else.

……

Far from the familiar hometown, it is indeed not very convenient to live abroad.

There is a lot of trouble when surfing the Internet, but fortunately, Shen Zhe's main job is to "accompany reading", and by the way, Lin Yuhan enjoys the scenery of the earth together in his spare time.

The rest of the time, I still do a lot of reading.

The company sent some industry news from time to time, which basically allowed him to understand the big and small things that have happened in the domestic literary circle in the past two years. The so-called electronic reading is only the digitization of paper publications, which is very different from the online literature of the other world, and there should be no signs of reading entertainment; The biggest impact of the adaptation wave is not only the end readers, but also the authors' incomes should be pushed to the polarization again, and the rich will get richer...... The numbers on his card kept flipping up, and as a beneficiary, of course, he had no opinions, but had the trouble of spending money.

Shen Zhe also often feels that he is hypocritical, how do those rich people with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars live their lives?

Eight meals a day?

Sleep in one night and change five rooms?

This is true, I have seen it on the news.

Shen Zhe couldn't understand it anyway.

Therefore, it is not the same life, and sometimes it is not okay to disobey.

Just like Shen Zhe in the other life, he worked harder than in this life, but the result was the opposite.

For Shen Zhe often inexplicably sighed, Lin Yuhan has long been surprised, the two were watching the scene in the lavender country at the foot of the Alps, and received the news that the copyrights of several works represented by the company were sold, and the price made Shen Zhe a little surprised.

Shen Zhe is not a person who likes to show off, so he showed off in front of Lin Yuhan again.

I can't help it, I'm proud, and I have something to eat......

"The villain has a will!"

Lin Yuhan was angry and funny.

Shen Zhe was scolded, his face was indifferent, and he had a thick black tendency in front of Lin Yuhan.

Then I felt it in my mind for three minutes, and then I remembered a certain plot in a certain part of the film.

Huang Yaoshi took his newlywed wife Feng Heng and met Zhou Botong who carried the "Nine Yin True Scripture" on the river, and the husband and wife also had a conversation. In that episode, Huang Yaoshi was more like a naughty boy than Zhou Botong in front of Feng Heng, and the "boudoir fun" set off the old naughty boy stupidly.

Nowadays, Shen Zhe is regarded as an idol by many readers, but if he says that an idol is a character.

Secluded in an island, he has the world in his heart.

Born is a human skin mask to cover the true face, move your hands to the sound of the blue sea tide, flick your fingers to kill the enemy, never pretend to be forced, but force scattered.

That kind of infatuation can also satisfy moral pleasure.

The only pen name used in Huaxia, he subconsciously chose to be the owner of the island.

Learn from idols.

……

"You've all taken a fancy to the prospect of adapting the youth trilogy?"

Oriental Culture President's Officeβ€”β€”

The smile on Zhongli's face was light, and he let the three guests sit down in the reception area, muttering in his heart.

In the three years since the first part of the youth trilogy came out "Those Years", it has received some offers to buy copyrights, and neither Shen Zhe nor the actual operation officer of the company, Zhong Li, has taken it to heart. The latter thinks that the offer is too low, and second, they find that the film and television companies they are interested in are not strong enough, and they are worried that the potential of the work will be wasted and the follow-up development will be affected. And in his opinion, Shen Zhe also considered the same thing, in fact, Shen Zhe completely forgot about it.

This year, there were suddenly more interested, and Oriental Culture received more than 30 purchase intentions.

After careful selection, there was this meeting.

"Director Li, you have the priority right to adapt "Those Years", and for some reasons in the past, our two companies did not have much cooperation, but your advantage in this work is still there. ”

Director Li is also the editor-in-chief of "Young People", and this time he is the plenipotentiary representative of HTV.

"Let's talk about it separately?" Director Li frowned.

"Even if the filming is completed and the audience is met, it will still be three dramas, right?" Zhongli said disapprovingly.

In the office, the buyer and seller seem to be in a one-to-three situation. In fact, Director Lee's HTV's identity is more likely to attract hostility.

One is the vice president sent by Sanjiang Satellite TV, surnamed Liu, in his fifties.

Due to the monopoly of resources and customers by the two domestic film and television media, it is basically impossible to find a competitor of comparable size. Zhongli looked at the materials submitted by the marketing department, and could only find this TV station with decent ratings. If you really can't cooperate with HTV, it's not bad to cooperate with them.

The other is the director of Video Online Huaxia East.

The surname on the business card is Ouyang, thirty-seven or eighteen years old, shrewd and capable.

This is a professional video site that has been established for more than three years and has risen for less than a year, and it is very young. The speed at which the traffic to the website has increased has amazed everyone, and it is considered the most successful startup in the country for half a century.

Director Li glanced at Director Ouyang, implicitly guarded.

Ouyang returned a polite smile.

Within HTV, there are already people who regard video online as the biggest competitor in the future. Because it has been established for a long time, the high-level HTV executives who consider themselves experienced and master most of the adaptation sources once had great ambitions to enter online video. It's a pity that things are a bit evil now, and in less than two years, they were beaten by the new company that was beginning to take shape, which surprised the industry.

Still, no one dares to take it lightly.

Director Li immediately set his sights on Vice President Liu on the other side, and when it came to the adaptation of the trilogy, the two TV stations were the most direct competitors.

Vice President Liu smiled: "We can't compare to HTV, just to see if there is any possibility of picking up cheap." ”

"Huh. ”

Falsehood and reality, no one present believed this.

"You talk first, and then it's our turn last, and we hope that the three parties will cooperate. ”

Director Ouyang said with a smile.

Director Li's face twitched, and he suddenly said, "Mr. Zhong, can you introduce Mr. Shen?"

Mr. Shen?

It's Xiao Zhe, the boy who was called Shen in the martial arts serialization at the beginning, has now become a gentleman. Zhongli shook his head and said: "Director Li is probably going to be disappointed, he is not in China at the moment, but he has entrusted us with the development of all the works before leaving, so there is no need to worry about copyright ownership." ”

"...... like this"

Director Li groaned and said, "If the three works are bundled and negotiated, we can pay a premium of 20% on the basis of the royalties guided by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles." ”

"It's not like the style of HTV. ”

Ouyang teased.

Zhongli thought for a moment and asked, "About twenty episodes each, a total of 7.2 million?"

Director Li nodded in approval.

A little helpless in his heart, he had to talk about the task sent by the company's headquarters.

……

In the past three years, junior high school students have entered high school, high school students have entered the university gate, and college students have begun to work hard for life in the vast city...... Coupled with the official arrival of the Internet era, more and more fans have read Shen Zhe's youth trilogy, and under their spontaneous publicity, a classic youth series has been achieved.

It's not an exaggeration to say classic.

Although it has been more than two years since the first publication of "Those Years", "The First Time" and "The Flight Attendant" are still placed in the most conspicuous position in various bookstores, not because of human intervention, but because of the demand for the book market.

Countless authors have tried to imitate this style of writing, and there has not been a work of comparable level until now.

In the world of youth literature, these three works are regarded as a separate genre.

The original paperback, hardcover, archival.

According to Lao Wei's idea, it has been brewing for more than half a year, and he is ready to publish a more exquisite version, and book fans will buy it.

The festival is almost gone.

Relying on these three alone, Shen Zhe's name will be remembered.

When the tide of adaptation comes, various film and television companies have set their sights on oriental culture.

The popularity of the work is an important factor to consider, and then look at the best-selling authors who are the most popular among readers, Wang Pai did not expect Shen Zhe to get worse, and the words with commercial characteristics are completely unsuitable for film and television; Shen Gongzi's aggressiveness made the film and television company retreat, and it seemed that there were more enemies; Xia Dong's article is youthful, but it is a good material for film and television dramas, but it is full of a lot of perceptual content, and I am personal, so I am not allowed to have major surgery on the work.

Counting around, only Shen Zhe is a baby.

"Youth Trilogy" has a wide audience, a large fan base, low shooting costs, and the author himself is studying in a related major, so the script is easy to implement...... A whole bunch of advantages.

Shen Zhe didn't care, Zhong Li knew everything about them.

Although there was an unpleasant quarrel with HTV, they were the best partners to work with.

In business, it mainly depends on their sincerity.

Twenty percent premium?

For that Big Mac, it was extremely sincere and exceptional, Zhongli cast an inquiring glance at Vice President Liu.

Director Li was expressionless: "At that time, Sanjiang Satellite TV can buy the premiere rights." ”

Everyone knows that a round of premiere rights may be more expensive than full copyright, which is the consistent practice of HTV's film and television production companies.

Vice President Liu smiled indifferently: "200% of the standard." ”

"Hmm......" Director Li hummed at Sanjiang Satellite TV's knowledge, and suddenly turned his head: "What did you say?"

Zhongli and Director Ouyang also looked at Vice President Liu in surprise.

"Double the price!" Vice President Liu repeated, "When I came, Mr. Fang, well, that is, our director has only one request, buy the copyright, there is no upper limit!"

Director Li said incredulously: "You also buy it tenfold?"

Immediately choked by Vice President Liu's "You guessed right" expression, Zhongli laughed and said, "Vice President Liu, didn't you say that just now?"

"Yes, I can't pick up the cheap, so I have to talk with money. Vice President Liu smiled and said, "Mr. Zhong brought us together to talk, isn't it the one with the highest price?"

was broken out of his mind, Zhongli was not embarrassed, and said, "Vice President Liu is not joking?"

"The mall is like a battlefield, no jokes!"

The three HTV films have a premium of 20% at the same time, which is equivalent to giving up the priority adaptation right of "Those Years" first, and the purpose is nothing more than the imperative for these three works.

But the horizontal ones are afraid of being stunned, and the stunned ones are afraid of dying.

In the face of Vice President Liu sent by Sanjiang Satellite TV, who suddenly changed from "focusing on participation" to a lifeless posture, Director Li only had a wry smile.

(I've been interrupted a few times recently, and I'm ashamed.) There are three reasons: 1. The main reason is that I can't stand being pestered by my little niece. 2. It's a bit of a problem to just change the code word of the mobile phone. 3. The more important reason is: there is no code word on the road for two days, so cool, lazy embarrassing......
