Chapter 0264: Before You Go
On November 23, light snow.
The first snow of 1999 arrived on time during the light snow season.
Zhou Lin was busy and dark, he hadn't gone out for several days, and he got up early in the morning and opened the curtains to find that there was a white expanse outside, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
The white expanse of the land is so clean, and between the flying snowflakes, you can see people walking slowly in the snow, leaving a series of clear footprints behind them.
Zhou Lin remembered that when he was a child, he loved to run around on the snowy ground, especially the snow that no one had stepped on, and he didn't know if this behavior had a strong desire to destroy.
"Winter is coming......" Zhou Lin sighed softly.
It's been half a year since he was reborn, and he has done a lot of things, some succeeding and some failing, although there are more or less setbacks, overall there are still small achievements.
Yesterday, he just got the news that the sales of Zhang Xuehua's new album "Hua Feng" have exceeded 600,000, and they are rushing towards 1 million. If it can exceed one million, it means that Zhang Xuehua's album is a rare double platinum album in recent years, and it is possible to win various awards at the end of the year.
On the other hand, the sales of "Wuxia Weekly" have been steadily declining, with only 49,000 copies sold last week, and I heard that the returns of the last few issues have been piled up in several warehouses, and no one is afraid that they will have to be returned to the paper mill to turn into pulp.
And Geng Yunhe's phone call yesterday confirmed that sales are still declining this week, and I am afraid that it will fall to 47,000 copies. If this continues, it is not far from losing money.
The two pieces of news had a great impact on Zhou Lin.
The three Chinese style songs in the "Hua Feng" album do not have Zhou Lin's signature, which is an agreement reached between Zhou Lin and Fei Na when he sold songs, so it does not have much impact on the pen name "Lin Zhou", which is specially used to write songs.
However, Zhou Lin plans to use the Chinese song "Blue and White Porcelain" in the second round of the competition of "The Strongest Singer-Songwriter". Now the better Zhang Xuehua's album sells, the greater the repercussions will be aroused, from this point of view, Zhou Lin still hopes that Zhang Xuehua's album can continue to sell well.
As for the latter news, Zhou Lin was speechless.
The decline in sales of "Wuxia Weekly" was expected by Zhou Lin. But it was beyond his expectation that it had fallen so badly.
Listening to Geng Yunhe say that the shareholders are panicking now, some people want to agree to Zhou Lin's previous request and ask him to write another novel to save sales, and some people want to restart the previous plan to sell shares to Jinma Culture, the opinions of the two sides are not in agreement, and they are quarreling every day.
Zhou Lin is not in a hurry.
"Martial Arts Weekly" has gone through such a toss. As long as Jinma Culture is not stupid, it can be seen that this is a mess. If there are no particularly excellent authors and works, the fate of "Wuxia Weekly" cannot be saved at all.
In this case, it is a big question whether Jinma Culture must still acquire "Wuxia Weekly".
Once Golden Horse Culture changed its mind and did not acquire it, Zhou Lin would have a chance.
These two pieces of news are indeed important, but Zhou Lin is more concerned about the few tasks at hand that must be completed today, because he is going to take the plane to Pingjing at 11 o'clock tonight to participate in the recording of "The Strongest Singer-Songwriter".
It's been four or five days, and it's a new week when I come back.
The first work is that the first draft of "Heroes Without Tears" has been completed. This novel Zhou Lin was directly handed over to Chunwen Publishing House, where it was reviewed, proofread and typeset as quickly as possible, and strived to be printed in mid-December. It is possible to go public on the first day of the new century.
Zhou Lin turned on the computer and read it from beginning to end.
Even though he had read "Heroes Without Tears" several times in his previous life and copied it again in this life, when he saw the spikes and Zhu Meng's blood spilling on the long street, he still couldn't help but feel a little moist in the corners of his eyes.
He feels that this paragraph can be called one of the most classic battles in the history of martial arts novels. Although it is not as calm as Zhang Wuji in the face of the six major factions in Guangmingding, it is not as heroic as Xiao Feng in Juxianzhuang, and it is not as free and easy as the West Gate Blowing Snow Leaves Lonely City decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City. It is not as mysterious as the battle between Li Xunhuan and Shangguan Jinhong, and it is not as mysterious as the battle between Kou Zhong and Song Que. is not as weird as Guan Qi's battle against the heroes, but Spikes performed a moving scene of sacrifice as a supporting role as a grassroots hero.
After reading through it to make sure there was no problem, Zhou Lin sent the manuscript to Zhu Zifeng's mailbox, and agreed to wait for December to come back to negotiate the publication plan of the first episode of "The Lord of the Rings" and the first episode of "Base".
The second task is the revision of the storyboard script of "I Want Revenge".
Zhou Lin made some changes to the original script based on the selected actors to match the age and style of the actors. At the same time, some of the bloodier scenes in the original work were also deleted, so as not to fail the review of the film bureau after being filmed.
In terms of actor roles, the little girl in the original version of the Chinese and Korean baby experiment has become a high school student, and the role has finally been determined to be played by Li Zhenxian, recommended by Zhou Lin, and the contract has been signed.
Finalize the day. Li Zhenxian specially called Zhou Lin to express her gratitude. Zhou Lin was too busy at the time and didn't say anything, but just encouraged her to study acting hard and work hard.
When changing the script in the past two days, Zhou Lin occasionally thought of Li Zhenxian's appearance, and couldn't help but add a few lines and performance opportunities to her in the script. On the one hand, this can increase the dramatic effect, and on the other hand, it is also out of Zhou Lin's selfishness. He always felt that Li Zhenxian's future could be expected, and if the performance of this drama passed, maybe he could also get a film company to sign Li Zhenxian as a potential stock.
The other tasks are simpler.
One is that the patent of "let's find fault together" has been completed with Wang Xiaotian's efforts.
He Xiaolong and Gao Zhining are also working hard to improve the optimization of the server, and at the same time came up with the first version of "Let's find fault together", although it is still a little simple, the basic functions can already be realized.
The acquisition of concept art and photography is also going very well, and if both sides can deliver on time, the image library will have more than 6,000 images of different genres, which is enough to support the game.
"Liancheng Jue" published by Qianjun Publishing House will be on the market next week, and Zhou Lin really couldn't spare time to attend the press conference, so he wrote a congratulatory message in the past.
The 5,000 sets of the second production of "Three Kingdoms" were also sold out a while ago, and the 10,000 sets of the third production have left the factory, and the current sales are good.
and Xia Da's side, the storyboards from the first to the tenth episodes of "Orange Road" have been given to her, and then it depends on whether she can give full play to her talent from Zhou Lin's sloppy and simple storyboards.
After all the chores at hand were dealt with one by one, it was already late at night, and at ten o'clock in the evening, Zhou Lin's door was knocked.
Ren Feifei probed in and said, "Are you ready, it's time to go!" ”
