Wang Tianlin sat on a rattan chair near the window, motionless like a statue. He had already read the script "Iron Blood Tianjiao" written by Lin Youlun for a while, and now that the light was dim, he put the script aside, leaned on the rattan chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.

The plot of the script is not complicated, the story is based on the love story of a stupid boy and a brutal girl, and there are also heroic and chivalrous stories for the country and the people. The content of this story is very similar to Wang Tianlin's just-finished "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but the background is the same era as Jin Yong's other novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which is about the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, when the Mongol army that had just finished the western expedition conquered almost all of Europe, and then began the second southern expedition. The young Liang Wenjing and his father Liang Tiande took refuge in Sichuan to escape the Mongol military service, and on the way they encountered the Southern Song Dynasty court governor King Huai'an and was assassinated. Bai Pu, a palace strategist, found that Liang Wenjing and the king of Huai'an looked similar, so he thought of a way to replace the peach stiff.

Liang Wenjing was unwilling to pretend to be the king of Huai'an, and fled that night, and met the Mongolian woman Xiao Yuling and the poor Confucian ram feather, ram feather and Xiao Yuling's master Xiao Qianjue were old rivals, and he taught Liang Wenjing "three talents to return to the Yuan palm" to restrain Xiao Yuling's Heishui school martial arts. Who knew that Liang Wenjing and Xiao Yuling had a fight, and they secretly fell in love. Xiao Yuling's senior brother Xiao Leng was the murderer of King Huai'an, and he wanted to kill Liang Wenjing, but was stopped by Xiao Yuling's design. Liang Wenjing finally escaped with his life, and was forced to go to Hezhou, where he had to pretend to be the king of Huai'an to boost the morale of the Song army at the front.

At this time, the Mongolian army pressed the border, the war was continuous, Liang Tiande died on the battlefield, Bai Pu was assassinated by the internal traitor, and under the internal and external difficulties, Liang Wenjing finally overcame his cowardly nature, first defeated Xiao Leng, and then killed the Mongolian Khan, relieved the siege of Hezhou, and then hung up the crown and left, and Xiao Yuling formed a couple.

If it weren't for Lin Youlun's name written on this script, Wang Tianlin would almost regard this as Jin Yong's unreleased work.

Wang Jing looked around at the door of the study for a while, Wang Tianlin coughed and asked him to come in and talk.

Wang Tianlin asked in the first sentence: "Are you sure this script was really written by that kid?" ”

Wang Jing is very sure of this, because he has seen Lin Youlun's novel manuscript with his own eyes.

Knowing that Lin Youlun adapted the story into a TV script while writing a novel, Wang Tianlin still didn't believe it in his heart, until he heard about Lin Youlun's plan from Wang Jing's mouth, Wang Tianlin couldn't help but shake his head: "The novel serialization and the TV series are synchronized, and it's a shame that he can come up with such an idea." ”

"Don't you think that's a good idea?" Wang Jing was a little puzzled.

"It's good, it's just cheapened that kid for nothing." Wang Tianlin glanced at the script at hand, "After all, TV is more influential than newspapers, as long as the TV series is broadcast, it is difficult for him to think about this novel whether it is popular." ”

Wang Jing asked in a low voice: "Then ...... this script?"

Wang Tianlin had his own ideas in his heart, and only said: "Tomorrow I will recommend it to the sixth uncle to try it, and you don't have to worry about this matter." ”

——

Taking advantage of the ratings boom caused by "Shooting the Condor", Wang Tianlin did have the heart to make a few more martial arts films, and this idea was also strongly supported by Run Run Shaw. Wang Tianlin originally planned to find one from Jin Yong's remaining works to adapt and shoot, but Lin Youlun's script gave Wang Tianlin a new idea.

The work is majestic, quite Jinyong, and at the same time has the essence of the story of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the only regret is that the story is shorter, and only 8 episodes can be filmed if it is full.

After reading the script, Wang Tianlin decided to make it into a TV series, he didn't tell Wang Jing about it, first, he didn't want Lin Youlun's kid to be too proud after knowing the truth, and second, he wanted to keep the price of the script as low as possible.

Lin Youlun dared to sell Golden Harvest 10 million for a movie script, and Zou Wenhuai asked people to deliver the refilled check to him the next day, although the matter was not made public, but the news still came out. …,

Before Wang Tianlin could make up his mind, the news somehow reached Run Run Shaw's ears first.

In the evening, Run Run Shaw sat silently on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the afterglow of the sunset gradually disappear into the sparkling waves of Victoria Harbour, and he couldn't help but feel a kind of melancholy in his heart: "The sunset is infinitely better, but it is just near dusk". Although he always showed a healthy posture in front of the outside world and the media, as he got older, he felt that he was unable to do some things.

Now the "two-line joint screening" strategy of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest to suppress the Golden Princess seems to be successful, but in fact it is full of crises. Shaw Brothers films have been produced on the set assembly line for decades, and the standards are uneven, and the result of the double-line joint screening is often the success of the well-made Golden Harvest films. The sensational Hong Kong movie "Baby Smart Multi Star" can set a box office record of 41 million, and Shaw Brothers Cinemas alone contributed nearly 40% of the box office revenue.

Originally, he wanted to suppress the common opponent, but he didn't expect to let Golden Harvest take advantage of it, Shaw Brothers made little profit, and his face was gloomy, and Shaw's mood was naturally not much better during this time.

It wasn't until the lights were on outside the window that Run Run Shaw stood up tremblingly, and Fang Yihua, who had been guarding behind him, hurriedly stepped forward to hold him up, and persuaded softly: "It's not good to sit like this all the time, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Shaw patted her hand and signaled that he was fine.

"Ah Hua, how did that matter go?"

"Wang Tianlin does have a script written by Lin Youlun, but it is a TV script, not a movie script."

"That's right." Shaw was a little disappointed, and then asked, "Do you think he is willing to help Shaw Brothers write a script?" ”

"Golden Harvest has raised the price so high, should we also pay a high price to buy a script from him?" Fong couldn't help frowning, in the heyday of Shaw Brothers, it was she who keenly felt that movies were challenged and threatened by television, so she suggested that Shaw bid for TVB. In the past two years, Shaw Brothers has shown decline, but TVB has become stronger and stronger, Fang Yihua has always been willing to persuade Run Run Shaw to give up movies and specialize in television, so naturally he doesn't want this matter to cause any more trouble. "Zou Wenhuai is because of the box office of the last movie as a guarantee, so he has no fear, and is it too risky for us to do this?"

Shaw thought about it and felt that she had a point, so he had to give up the idea.

Fang Yihua knew that Run Run Shaw had been disgraced recently because Shaw Brothers had been overwhelmed by Golden Harvest, so he persuaded: "Actually, we can try to cooperate with Lin Youlun once in terms of TV, Zou Wenhuai will pay the highest price to buy his movie script, and we will pay the highest price to buy his TV script." ”

"And how much do you think is the right price?" Shaw was interested in the proposal.

"One hundred thousand in one episode."

Fang Yihua said very surely, but in order to determine this number, she spent a lot of thought behind it. filmed "Shooting the Condor" wirelessly, and the copyright fee paid to Jin Yong was only one million, and the price given to Lin Youlun was higher than this amount, so he couldn't explain to Jin Yong, and he couldn't show the sincerity of wireless if he gave less.

Fang Yihua finally came up with this standard of "arguing about the price by set", Lin Youlun's script only wrote 8 episodes, so that the total price of the script does not exceed Jin Yong, and the price of a single episode is the highest, and all aspects can be taken care of.

Run Run Shaw nodded, and the matter was settled.
