Chapter 146: Doing it yourself

There are many popular people, which is probably Zhang Tan's mood at the moment.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has made him popular today, although he is just a writer, but he is more eye-catching than ordinary starlets.

And his seventeen-year-old age is also a good topic of hype. Prodigy, ordinary people are not good at this. The public likes to watch this kind of story of teenagers' success, and of course the media clings to it.

When Han Jingming debuted, he was also full of hype, a young genius today, it is useless to read tomorrow, and the books of the day after tomorrow are big sellers, and the trouble is known all over the country.

Nowadays, there is also a Guo Han, who just released his first novel and printed 10,000 copies, and was blown into the Three Musketeers of post-80s literature. At the beginning of this year, Guo Han published his second book "Hallucination", followed by "Beer in the Left Hand, Roast Duck in the Right Hand" and "How Much Do You Know About the Red in the Dream", which caused many quarrels.

Han Jingming and Guo Han, one in 82 years and the other in 83 years, are both in their twenties. On the contrary, Zhang Tan, who is also known as one of the Three Musketeers, was born in 86 and is younger, and now it seems that he has achieved more achievements.

Not only was the novel published in simplified and traditional Chinese, winning the best-selling book championship at home and abroad, but also the first to eat crabs, and the work began to be adapted into a TV series.

There are praises and depreciations, and there are powders and blacks.

While he is in the limelight, of course, he will make a big splash and cause dissatisfaction among many people.

Perhaps in the process of writing the script of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", many celebrities have not paid attention to the contradictions between the screenwriters and Zhang Tan. However, when reporters interview them, if they "guide" them a little, they will naturally develop all kinds of prejudices and express their opinions.

Moreover. To guide these celebrities to attack Liu Changshan, the three unknown screenwriters, how can they be guided to attack Zhang Tan, a public focus figure. The news is even bigger. In addition, Liu Changshan's three screenwriters are all old people in the circle of screenwriters. Over the years, I have a lot of contacts.

This has led to the scene where Zhang Tan has become the target of public criticism.

The bully is that Zhang Tan is a pink rookie and has no foundation in the industry.

"It seems that it's time to form my own team, without a team to help deal with all kinds of troubled chores, I personally go down to fight with others, it's too low, both worth and out!"

Such a thought flashed in his heart for a moment, and then Zhang Tan smiled and faced the camera: "Criticism from seniors." I accept it with an open mind, and if I change it, I encourage it. ”

"But I still want to clarify here that I don't have any disrespect for the screenwriter's work, I don't respect the creation of the story, on the contrary, I care more than anyone about the adaptation of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Because this is my novel, I am the one who most wants it to be presented on the screen, not only for myself, but also for the readers who support me. ”

"Liu Changshan, the screenwriter, said that as a writer, I interfered in the screenwriting work. It is very harmful to the industry. I just want to say that many excellent writers are excellent screenwriters themselves, whether it is a three-dimensional film and television drama as he said. Or a flat novel. At its core, it's all about the story itself, but in a slightly different way. ”

"We know Haiyan, we know Wang Shuo. They were all famous writers and became famous screenwriters. I'm the last to learn. But I don't dare to be presumptuous, I think with my knowledge of my novels. Isn't it a useful direction for adaptation? ”

"And as I said, when I signed a contract with Zhang Dabeard Studio, I clearly stipulated that when adapting, the novel should be restored to the greatest extent and the original work should be respected, which is the main direction. Now I, the original author of the novel, give the screenwriter a little bit of my opinion, and it becomes a random interference in the script, what kind of respect is this? ”

Zhang Tan is not casually low and small-tempered, cultural people speak, they are all spitting stars with knives, guns and sticks: "And I can say this, kneading an attractive story into a script, many people can do it, but if you want to write an attractive story, not everyone can do it." ”

"A really good screenwriter must respect the story, respect the person who wrote the story, and finally use his inspiration to turn the story into a script. Rather than taking it for granted to reject the people who write the story, self-righteous and random adaptation. You don't communicate with the people who wrote the story, can you know what the story is for? ”

“…… I've said everything I want to say, so please don't ask me any more questions for the rest of the time, I've missed a lot of book signings, and my readers are still waiting for me. ”

After speaking, Zhang Tan walked into the bookstore under the leadership of the staff of Bowang Book City.

……

After signing the last book, it was already dark.

At noon, he had already eaten with the owner of the bookstore, so in the evening, Zhang Tan did not accept the boss's invitation again, and took Li Yan to eat snacks on the streets of Guangzhou.

Eat and talk.

"Sister Li, I thought about it for a while."

Li Yan asked, "What?" ”

Zhang Tan groaned and said: "I want to set up a studio, you have seen the recent battle, and I have become the target of other people's bombardment." It's not good, it's very bad. ”

Li Yan nodded: "That's true, as the novel says, the rivers and lakes are sinister, and the social environment is the same." Now you have just come in and you have been suppressed by others, and there will definitely be more and more of this in the future. You're not a celebrity, but you're like a celebrity, you do need to build a team and recruit more people to help you run your career and fame. ”

Zhang Tan nodded, and shook his head again: "It's not that I operate myself like a star looking for a team, but I separate myself from my career, Sister Li, do you understand?" ”

Li Yan was surprised: "I'm a little confused. ”

"That is to say, I handed over the copyright of my novel to the studio to operate, and in the future, the studio will take the lead in adapting TV series, movies, comics, games, etc., including interviews with reporters, press releases, and external publicity, so that I don't have to come forward myself. Sooner or later, I will have to make my own films, and the copyright can also be operated by the studio. ”

Zhang Tan's idea is similar to Jin Yong's approach in his previous life, which is to open his own company. Operate the copyright of the work, and talk to my company if you have something. Don't come to me.

Li Yan thought carefully for a while before laughing and said, "Hmm." It's a good way to get you out, so that it's more transcendent, and the ears are quiet. You are a writer, you should maintain this quiet environment in order to concentrate on creation, after all, your work is the foundation of all business operations. ”

"Then Sister Li, you have to worry more, hurry up and help me set up a studio, I hope before this matter is over. The studio was able to open. ”

Li Yan has worked hard in the publishing industry for many years, and recently connected with the film and television industry, and her morale is high, so she said without hesitation: "Give me a month, I will register the company first, now you have less copyright in your hands, there is not much to do, and it is not too late to slowly improve the studio system after the establishment." ”

After chatting about the studio for a while, I quickly returned to the original topic.

Li Yan asked, "This time." The reaction from Zhang's bearded studio was a bit mild, probably wanting to hype the news for a while. Now that it's happened, there's nothing wrong with hyping it up, but. What are your plans for Liu Changshan and these people? ”

Eating rice rolls, Zhang Tan said unceremoniously: "Liu Changshan has been finding fault again and again. I don't clean them up, I really give them a long face,. Bites like a dog! You contact Zhang Dabeard Studio and ask for a change of screenwriter. This kind of garbage screenwriter is not worthy of adapting my novel. ”

Li Yan nodded: "It's time to put some pressure on Zhang Dabeard's studio, and I will contact the other party as soon as possible." ”

So.

The outside world is still busy hyping up the screenwriting incident.

And Zhang Tan has secretly prepared his own studio, and put forward a request to Zhang Dabeard Studio to change the screenwriter. The crew, who was still holding the hype mentality, couldn't sit still now.

Since Min called, he said that the crew would coordinate in the middle, so please sit down for a meal and reconcile: "It's better to settle the grievances than to settle them, right, Assistant Li?" ”

"This is no longer a small contradiction, it is a fundamental contradiction, how important the script of a play is, I think everyone knows it. I don't think you want people to write the script with resentment, and it's still too late to replace the screenwriter while there's still time. ”

Yu Min hesitated for a moment: "In that case, I asked Liu Changshan and them to apologize, this is considered sincere, right?" ”

Li Yan asked Zhang Tan.

Zhang Tan is not a serious person after all, so he decided to take a step back, and soon let Li Yan give a reply: "My boss Zhang Tan is not a person with a small belly, as long as Liu Changshan and the three of them publicly apologize in the media, this matter will be revealed, and everyone can continue to cooperate." ”

At that moment, Yu Min went to Liu Changshan, hoping that they could apologize to Zhang Tan.

In the teahouse where they met, Liu Changshan slapped the table: "What? Let me apologize to the little furry boy? Lao Yu, needless to say, I won't write "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", who do you like to find and who to write, he Zhang Tan wants to replace me, okay, you let him write it himself. There are only a few people in the circle who are good at adapting martial arts, I know them all, I'll see who can help you write it. ”

Yu Min also slapped the table: "Liu Changshan, what do you mean by doing this?" Let's not mention that he Zhang Tan originally had the right to review the script, and you stabbed the matter in the newspaper first, and now that Zhang Tan has taken a step back, why can't you also take a step back? ”

Liu Changshan stiffened his neck: "I don't mean much, in this situation, it's useless to talk too much nonsense, anyway, there is him without me." It's impossible for me to apologize, there is only one situation where I can continue to write, and that is the matter of the script, and our screenwriter is responsible for making him a little hairy child, how far away he is. ”

"Do you have to do this?"

"If you have to think so, that's fine."

Yu Min glanced at Liu Changshan and a few people, didn't say anything more, hurried back, and reported to Zhang Dabeard.

in the office.

Zhang Dabeard frowned deeply: "Mom, ...... Liu Changshan's side, if he doesn't write it, several well-known screenwriters in the industry will not take it easily. This is a messy matter, and it shouldn't have been hyped up in the first place, and it didn't communicate with both sides in time, so it couldn't end now. ”

Yu Min sighed: "Now there must be one side on both sides to retreat, and we have to deal with it as soon as possible, we can't wait for the actors to be in place, and the script has not yet been settled." ”

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" claims to have invested 50 million yuan, but in fact, there is a lot of water injection, but the scale of 10 million is there, and the script is convenient and cannot be omitted.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Dabeard said, "Call Zhang Tan...... Ask him if he can take a step back and analyze the stakes with him. Liu Changshan: If they leave, it will be difficult for other screenwriters to take over the stall of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Now is not the time for a battle of wills, the script of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not well written, and everyone has losses. ”

……

"Liu Changshan, are they threatening me with not writing?"

Two days later, in his hometown of Hexigang Town, Zhang Tan, who learned the news, said disdainfully: "Then I'll write it myself!" (To be continued.) )
