Chen Qi took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was a call from Lu Wenxin.

"Okay, I'll be over later."

Chen Qi said, and then hung up the phone.

This time, Lu Wenxin called over to invite Chen Qi to participate in a dinner, and there will be people from Qinglong Film and Television in the dinner, although Lu Wenxin did not elaborate, but Chen Qi knew without thinking about it that they were obviously here for the film and television copyright of his novel.

When he came to the agreed hotel, as soon as Chen Qi entered the door, he saw Lu Wenxin and two young men, a man and a woman, waiting there.

"Hello, Mr. Chen. My name is Ren Jie, and I'm glad to meet you. ”

This twenty-eight or nine-year-old young man, who was in good spirits and looked quite energetic, said first.

"Chen Qi, I'm glad to meet."

Chen Qi shook hands with Ren Jie and said.

"The moon is reflected in the pool. Mr. Chen, I'm a big fan of yours, so remember to sign my autograph later. ”

This Tan Yingyue, about twenty-six or seventeen years old, has a concave and graceful figure, with a touch of style between the corners of her eyebrows, and is a beauty.

"It's my pleasure."

Chen Qi said with a smile.

"Alright, let's go inside." Lu Wenxin said.

Then the four of them entered a private room.

Soon the wine and food were served, and Chen Qi and Lu Wenxin chatted and ate at the same time.

Ren Jie and Tan Yingyue are both exquisite, long-sleeved and good at dancing, even if they gossip, they don't make people feel bored.

After a few people drank a little wine, the atmosphere became more harmonious.

At this time, Ren Jie sighed: "The current sales and influence of "Martial Arts World" magazine almost all depend on Mr. Chen alone. ”

"Where, I'm a novelist. The main reason why magazines can have their current sales is that the publishing house is running well. Chen Qi smiled lightly.

Ren Jie smiled: "Mr. Chen is too modest. Without Mr. Chen's talent, "Martial Arts World" magazine would not be able to catch up with "Chivalry" for decades. ”

This remark almost completely negates the efforts and merits of Lu Wenxin and the rest of the publishing house, but Lu Wenxin can't say anything. Because without Chen Qi, "Martial Arts World" really wouldn't be where it is today.

Chen Qi smiled faintly and did not answer.

Seeing that Chen Qi didn't speak, Tan Yingyue said: "Actually, we came this time, first, to get to know Mr. Chen, and secondly, to get to know Mr. Chen's novel for the film and television adaptation copyright. ”

"I don't know which novel Miss Tan likes?" Chen Qi said.

"We want to buy the film rights to 'Legend of Rebirth' for 1.6 million." Tan Yingyue said.

A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Qi's eyes. He didn't expect the other party to take a fancy to "Legend of Rebirth".

"Yes." Chen Qi agreed without hesitation.

"If it is filmed, this movie will be greatly adapted, except for the name of the movie is 'Legend of Rebirth', the name of the protagonist Zhou Xingwen will not change, and everything else will change. Does Mr. Chan agree? Tan Yingyue said.

"No problem."

Chen Qi naturally has no opinion, the "Legend of Rebirth" he wrote is not suitable for making movies at all.

In fact, if Qinglong Film and Television does not use the name "Legend of Rebirth", and changes the name of the movie to "Rebirth Ten Years Ago" or "Back to the Past", the protagonist will change his name. I'm afraid I don't need to pay a penny of royalties.

Because although this drama uses the theme of "rebirth", the plot has changed beyond recognition, even if Chen Qi sues the other party for infringement, this lawsuit is not easy to fight.

"Last time, our Qinglong Film and Television successfully filmed "The First Close Contact", and this "Legend of Rebirth" will not disappoint Mr. Chen." Tan Yingyue said with a smile.

Chen Qi also nodded, this is indeed a win-win situation, and making "The Legend of Rebirth" into a movie is good for both him and Qiming.

At this time, Ren Jie said: "This time, except for the film copyright of "Legend of Rebirth". We also intend to buy the film rights to "Smiling Proud Jianghu". One price, eight million. What do you think? If Mr. Chen is willing to be the screenwriter of this film, what if the remuneration is different? ”

"It's really exciting."

Chen Qi said: "However, I don't plan to sell the film and television adaptation rights of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" for the time being. ”

"The price of eight million is really not low. No film and television company in Huaxia will offer such a high price. Ren Jie said.

Tan Yingyue also said: "I know that Mr. Chen has the ability to shoot the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu". But in that case, it may not be released until a few years later, when "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and Oriental Girl still have the current popularity? ”

"The strength of our Qinglong Film and Television, Mr. Chen also knows, is enough to distribute the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu" to the world. Maximize your benefits. ”

Tan Yingyue looked at Chen Qi and said, "If Mr. Chen feels that eight million is not enough, we can also accept a share according to the final box office." ”

Speaking of which, it is obvious that Qinglong Film and Television is very sincere.

In fact, Qinglong Film and Television has always wanted the film copyright of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and the price proposed at the beginning was not low.

Now after the short film "Oriental Undefeated Gaiden" comes out, the Oriental girl has become like this, to be honest, just make up some plots and make movies, and the box office will not be bad, which prompts Qinglong Film and Television to put forward more favorable conditions.

Faced with such conditions, Chen Qi was indeed moved, but he still shook his head firmly.

It's better to keep the copyright in your own hands, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is not just a movie, eight million seems to be a lot at first glance, but it is really less.

Seeing Chen Qi shaking his head and refusing, Ren Jie was a little unhappy in his eyes, but Tan Yingyue's face remained unchanged, and she was still smiling.

At the end of the dinner, when they parted, Tan Yingyue said: "If Mr. Chen wants to sell the film copyright of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", please give priority to our Qinglong Film and Television. ”

"Of course." Chen Qi smiled and said.

After Chen Qi and Lu Wenxin left separately, Ren Jie and Tan Yingyue got into a car.

In the car, a trace of anger appeared on Ren Jie's face, and he said, "I just happened to write a few popular novels." Hmph, I really thought I was amazing. ”

""The Legend of the White-Haired Witch", "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and "The Peerless Twins" are really just popular?"

"Even if these novels are popular, without our Qinglong Film and Television, would that kid be where he is today?" Ren Jie said coldly.

"Hmph."

Tan Yingyue snorted coldly and said, "Without Qinglong Film and Television, he is still the current Chen Qi." He and Qinglong Film and Television have always been in a cooperative relationship. ”

Tan Yingyue's voice paused. said: "For such people, we must try to make friends. In fact, for Qinglong Film and Television, Chen Qi is much more valuable than the two of us. ”

Ren Jie was unwilling, although emotionally, it was difficult for him to accept that this young man who was younger than him had achieved far more than him. But intellectually, he had to agree with Tan Yingyue's words.

……

Leaving the hotel, Chen Qi walked on the road.

Tan Yingyue is right, if the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu" drags on for a long time, it will indeed be a waste of current popularity.

But if Chen Qi decides to shoot by himself, will it really drag on for a long time?

In fact, there are no big directors who can make the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and Qiming Entertainment is not absent. Don't forget, Xia Lin was originally a film director.

So, Chen Qi dialed Xia Lin's mobile phone.

"What? Let me make a big movie of "Smiling Proud Jianghu"? ”

What Chen Qi said. Xia Lin was quite surprised.

"Yes. I think you can make a good movie of "Smiling Proud Jianghu". Chen Qi said.

"But I'm filming the TV series "Smiling Proud Jianghu" now." Xia Lin said.

"It doesn't matter, the TV series "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has been filmed for more than a dozen episodes, and the main style has been decided, and the assistant director will shoot it, let's take care of it a little, just do it."

"Just ......"

Xia Lin was still a little hesitant, after all, he had planted too much in the movie.

"I believe in you, the TV series "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" was successful. Now the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu" can also be successful. Chen Qi said.

"Good!"

Xia Lin was obviously infected by Chen Qi's words, and he no longer shied.

Although Xia Lin is now filming martial arts dramas. Life is going well, but how can making TV be compared with making movies, movies can cover the world, but can TV series?

Xia Lin was planted when he made a movie, and he dreamed of getting back to the scene and regaining his former glory.

So. Xia Lin spent a day arranging the crew's affairs and rushed back to Yanjing immediately.

When meeting Xia Lin, Chen Qi took out the script.

The name of the big movie is proud, and Chen Qi has already decided. It is exactly - "Smiling Proud Jianghu East Undefeated".

This drama will be based on Chen Qi's original time and space, Tsui Hark's version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The Undefeated East", of course, it must be modified in many places to change a better and more suitable plot for this world.

In the original time and space, "Smiling Proud Jianghu: Undefeated in the East" should be the second part of the "Smiling Proud Jianghu" movie.

But it doesn't matter, if you want to shoot the first part in the future, it can be counted as a prequel to "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The Undefeated East".

"How's this script?" Chen Qi asked.

"No words."

As a director, Xia Lin can be regarded as talented, but in the face of Chen Qi, he suddenly felt that he had nothing to say.

Although the script is ready, there is still a lot to do to shoot a movie.

In terms of actors, Dongfang Undefeated will of course be played by Qin Siyu, and Ren Yingying will be played by Shi Wei, who has just joined Qiming, and the actor who plays Yue Lingshan is easy to find.

Now the main thing is that there is a lack of a male protagonist.

Fang Wei needed to shoot the TV series "Smiling Proud Jianghu", so he couldn't pull out at all, and Chen Qi didn't think that Fang Wei was suitable to play "Smiling Proud Jianghu: Undefeated in the East".

"Forget it, let's look for it slowly, there will always be a suitable one."

Chen Qi and Xia Lin discussed.

……

Chen Qi and Xia Lin are preparing for the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The East is Undefeated", and soon this May will pass.

In June, the TV series "Smiling Proud Jianghu" will be broadcast, Qiming will also enter the era of charging, and the first game of Qiming Games may also be released, oh, if you find a suitable actor, the movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu: Undefeated in the East" will also start shooting.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Qi realized that this June was another busy month. (To be continued......)
