On the morning of the second day of the banquet, Shang Yunyan and Zhou Lin signed two contracts.

One is the script contract of "Wulin Gaiden", which stipulates that the remuneration is 150,000 yuan per episode, and the total amount of 20 episodes in the first season is 3 million yuan.

One is the investment contract of "Wulin Gaiden", which stipulates that Zhou Lin will take out one million yuan of his salary as an investment, accounting for 8% of the total investment. The income from the sale of the TV series is distributed according to the amount invested.

After the two contracts were signed, Shang Yunyan was very happy to give Zhou Lin a deposit of one million first.

There is one million left, and Zhou Lin will complete all 20 episodes of the script before paying, which is about a week at Zhou Lin's speed.

After getting the contract, Zhou Lin drew a few pictures for Shang Yunyan on the spot, including the structure and furnishings of the lobby of Tongfu Inn, the most important scene in the play, and some places to pay attention to in the distant aspects, and he took the trouble to talk about them one by one.

Liu Tao took the picture drawn by Zhou Lin and sneered: "Mr. Zhou, your picture is quite detailed, it is enough to be a prop in our crew, that is...... It's just that the level of painting is a little worse. ”

After signing the contract and getting the sketch, Shang Yunyan returned to Shencheng to prepare for the crew. According to him, while forming the crew, he built several scenes of the Tongfu Inn, and strived to select the actors before the end of August, and started shooting around September 10.

The preparation of a crew is complicated, and so many big and small things can be done in just one month, that is, a senior and well-known director like Shang Yunyan can do it, and Zhou Lin doesn't know where to start.

sent Shang Yunyan and Liu Tao to the airport, and the matter of the college entrance banquet came to an end for the time being.

Of course, the influence of those messy videos on the Internet is still there, and Zhou Lin asked Zhou Ming to bring a group of "water army" selected from the Singularity Literature Forum to muddy the water, in short, to minimize the impact as much as possible.

In the afternoon, Zhou Lin came to the university town and wanted to sneak into Xia Da's dormitory, but the dormitory manager and aunt stood at the door and stared at her, and she really couldn't find a chance.

Zhou Lin had no choice but to make a phone call, and it took a long time for Xia Da to come down.

"Why is it so slow?" Zhou Lin and Xia Da asked casually, standing by the flower garden outside the dormitory.

"There's a guest asking about cards. Shada said.

She didn't tell the truth, but it actually took a lot of time to dress up briefly after receiving Zhou Lin's call.

Zhou Lin didn't care, and asked again, "What about them?"

"It's busy. Yesterday I went to your college entrance banquet, which delayed a lot of business. Xia Da said, "But it's worth listening to so many big stars singing." ”

After speaking, she peeked at Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin didn't understand what she meant, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I wrote a few songs for them, so everyone gave me face to attend the college banquet." Actually, I didn't know before. ”

"Boss, you're amazing. Xia Da said heartily.

The two chatted for a while, and Xia Da took out a small notebook and said, "This is the account of the last few days." ”

Zhou Lin took a brief look, and the current daily sales of "Three Kingdoms" cards are about 100 sets, which is a significant decrease from the peak period a few days ago.

"The audience coverage of "Wuxia Weekly" is so large, some of them are still middle-aged and elderly, and the advertising effect is like this, even if they continue to advertise, there will be no increase in sales. Zhou Lin analyzed.

Xia Da nodded: "We have been thinking about this issue for the past few days, and have listed a few media that are more suitable for advertising...... It's all written on the last page of the booklet. ”

Zhou Lin flipped over and saw the names of seven or eight magazines and newspapers.

He nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work." These days, it is still mainly online sales, and from next week onwards, it will be promoted in bars and KTV and other places in the university town, as well as campus promotion plans, so you must also make a little preparation in advance. ”

"We'll do our best!" said Shada, looking confident.

Zhou Lin had other things, waving goodbye to Xia Da, not knowing that the girl's innocent eyes had been staring at his back, and her eyes were full of worship.

Zhou Lin did not leave the university town, but came to the Internet café where Gao Zhining was mingling.

This guy is really still in that fixed seat, still using the instant noodle bucket as an ashtray, judging from the number of cigarette butts in it, this guy probably hasn't left for a few days.

"Why didn't you come to the college entrance banquet yesterday?" Zhou Lin asked.

Gao Zhining yawned, stretched his waist and pouted: "The website is getting to a critical time, and I can't leave." ”

"How's the progress?" Zhou Lin looked at the various codes on the screen, and his brain hurt.

"75% of it. Gao Zhining said, "Now we still need to debug the bottom layer." I used a more stable structure, although there are more things to consider at the beginning, and it is relatively simple to increase the capacity later. ”

"Well, strategically, it's a little bit more long-term. Zhou Lin was very satisfied.

"There are ten days at most, and it will be done. However, it will take about a week to debug. Gao Zhining looked at the time, "It will be online on August 31st, is there any problem?"

"Yes!" Zhou Lin nodded.

The two said a few more words, and Zhou Lin asked Gao Zhining to collect more free games on the Internet to enrich the content of the website. Otherwise, there is only one "Zhou's Cube" on such a large website, which is too pitiful.

Gao Zhining agreed, saying that as long as he made a small program, he could catch the game all over the Internet.

Zhou Lin didn't understand it, anyway, it's right to leave professional things to professional people.

After settling down the promotion of "Three Kingdoms" and the construction of the upcoming website, Zhou Lin began to retreat.

For a few days, he stayed at home, turned off his mobile phone, only showed his face on QQ every day, and spent the rest of his time coding words.

When I got up in the morning, I copied two episodes of "Wulin Gaiden", and when I was tired of copying, I changed it to "Celebrating More Than Years" to relax, and when I was tired of copying "Celebrating More Than Years", I changed it to "Blasphemy", and copied down 100,000 words a day, my back hurts and my hands cramp, which is really miserable.

In a blink of an eye, it was Monday again, and at more than two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Lin took advantage of the break to go on QQ, and Geng Yunhe's news popped up.

"Why didn't the mobile phone turn on, today's preliminary sales are out, and it can hit 140,000!"

In the story of the last issue of "Liancheng Jue", Ding Dian died, Di Yun escaped from prison, and saw the old man, and the story reached a stage of great turning point.

Countless people are looking forward to Di Yun's great power in the new issue, and as soon as the "rat soup" came out, it immediately sold like crazy, and the sales volume exceeded 105,000 copies in one morning.

Although Geng Yunhe had already asked the printing house to increase the first printing capacity to 120,000 copies, he still didn't expect the enthusiasm of the readers, so he hurriedly told the printing house to continue printing and print 140,000 copies!

In addition to sales, Geng Yunhe also brought another news.

"Qianjun Publishing House wants to publish your "Liancheng Jue", and I talked to them on your terms. The number of first prints and royalties can be given according to your requirements, and as long as you have three years of Chinese copyright, if you think it is appropriate, you can sign a contract in a few days. ”

has money again, which is really good news for Zhou Lin, who is in urgent need of money.
