Chapter 136: Plagiarism Studio

The typewriter that Yang Xia wants to buy is a dual-purpose typewriter in Chinese and English. This dual-purpose typewriter is much more complex than a single English typewriter, with more than 2,200 commonly used words and more than 3,600 non-ordinary words on the Chinese word plate alone.

Because of its complexity and its many accessories, its price is also about 1,000 yuan more expensive than an ordinary English typewriter. In this way, when the ink cartridges, ribbons, paper and other accessories were prepared, Yang Xia had less than 400 yuan of 3,300 Hong Kong dollars left.

Money, money!

Yang Xia had never felt the importance of money so eagerly.

"Cousin, you will help me do two things when I go to work tomorrow morning." After dinner, Yang Xia took out 100 Hong Kong dollars and put it in front of Song Mingzhao, as for the word "cousin", Yang Xia felt that this title was very good, although Song Mingzhao was his assistant and housekeeper, but a big beauty, you call others "assistant"? "Butler"? Obviously none of them are quite suitable.

"You say." Song Mingzhao is looking forward to it, this is the first job that Yang Xia gave him.

"First, you go and buy me newspapers and periodicals, but buy me a copy of every newspaper that wants to publish novels, essays, and poetry; Second, you can help me inquire about the famous record companies, film companies, publishing houses, etc. in Xiangcheng Port, and help me copy back the address and other news. ”

"Okay." Song Mingzhao agreed very happily. These two jobs are very easy, and if this is a day's work, it is much less than the workload of Pokfulam Home Economics School.

After Yang Xia finished explaining, he returned to the study.

Four-bedroom house. The furniture was already complete, and in addition to his own bedroom, Yang Xia also occupied a study room, which was the studio he used in the early stage.

The typewriter was quietly placed on the desk in the study, and it had been adjusted by the store, and it was ready to start typing immediately.

Yang Xia came to the study, in fact, to be familiar with the operation process of the typewriter, in his previous life, although he had used a typewriter, but it seemed to be a little different. The biggest difference. Of course, it is the Chinese character plate of the typewriter in Xiangcheng Port, all of which are traditional characters, while the characters used by Yang Xia in his previous life are simplified characters, in addition. The port of Xiangcheng is influenced by the West. It is also different from Huaxia in terms of font emission habits.

The position of the Chinese character on the character board. The typewriter comes with a font table, and Yang Xia looks at the font table while adapting to the keys of the typewriter. For kanji. In his previous life, Yang Xia didn't know much, and most of the words that were not commonly used were not very familiar, but after being reborn, because he had almost finished reading the library of Chiquan Middle School, including dozens of books on ancient Chinese, Yang Xia's literacy level at this time, including traditional Chinese characters, although he did not dare to compare with the Chinese of the Chinese language teaching, but it was much more than ordinary people.

The benefits brought by cultivation are not only the strength of the memory or the body, but also the overall improvement of one's primacy, such as the frequency of this hand speed, the flexibility and coordination of the fingers, etc., which are not understandable in previous lives.

How to say it, it should be said that Yang Xia's brain is very powerful at this time, and the instructions given are very clear, and all parts of the body are also very accurate, fast, and powerful when executing this command.

Therefore, after Yang Xia was familiar with the machine qì for half an hour and memorized the word plate completely, Yang Xia began to practice typing.

Yang Xia memorized the word plate, not directly memorized the position of a single word, but similar to the pattern of episodic memory, the shape of a word plate will appear in his mind, and those words are presented in a certain area of the word plate in a certain position, this, a bit similar to a keyboard, a typist who has undergone professional learning and standard training, can be completely blind typing.

Yang Xia had a feeling that when he was completely familiar with this typewriter, he could enter the state of blind typing. If this is the case, Yang Xia feels that his typing speed should not be slower than that of a professional typist.

The typing speed is fast and good, the people of the SAR say that time is money, so for Yang Xia at this time, speed is money.

Because Yang Xia must earn enough Song Mingzhao's salary before September 1 arrives, and at the same time, he must also earn the living expenses of the next month; There is no way that he will call Liu Gongnan at the end of the month because he does not have enough money.

Originally, Yang Xia didn't need such difficulties, his grandfather Yang Yangao helped him collect things, and he could take a few out of them casually, and he could also solve the living expenses for a few months, but Yang Xia was unwilling to use those things.

If Yang Xia wanted to make a lot of money by selling those things before, then when Yang Xia participated in the Annan self-defense counterattack, his mind had changed, he wanted to take those things as his collection, and he would ask his grandfather to continue to buy for him, the things left by the ancestors were all sold to foreigners for a few copper plates, Yang Xia did have this idea in the past, but now it is definitely gone.

Two hours later, Yang Xia was able to enter a normal typing state. In other words, it may take others a month to reach the realm, but Yang Xia only took two hours.

Of course, this normal typing refers to printing plain Chinese characters with familiarity, and if you want to add some scientific symbols, such as some of the simplest mathematical equations, the speed will have to be slowed down.

But even so, Yang Xia's talent is very remarkable.

After Yang Xia reached basic proficiency, he stopped typing practice. Instead, he picked up a pen and drew some symbols on a piece of paper that only he could understand, and these symbols indicated what Yang Xia was going to do in the near future.

Previously, the songs and lyrics he showed to the chief in Shangjing were all true, but in terms of operation, he couldn't come up with dozens or hundreds of songs at a time, because in that case, even ginseng could only be sold at the price of turnips.

The best way to sell songs is to sell two songs, and you can only sell two songs a month, of course, if the style is completely different, you can also sell more, but it is not appropriate to sell to one company, one company should use two. A creator who writes two to four songs a month is already a very remarkable speed, and if there are more, it is not a genius, it is a monster. Yang Xia, known as the "monster", is not afraid, but the most important thing is that if the speed is too fast, the record company will also lower the price.

Therefore, the first thing Yang Xia has to do is to sell songs, to put it bluntly, it is to plagiarize those proven pop songs in history in advance and sell them to record companies to earn his first pot of gold.

The second thing Yang Xia has to do is to plagiarize movie ideas and write them into scripts, for Xiangchenggang movies, Yang Xia watched some pirated videotapes during his teaching at the Chemical College in his previous life, and some wonderful movies, and even watched them three or four times.

For these movies, except for the main characters and the main plot, I can't remember anything else, but this is just right for Yang Xia's "secondary creation", with Yang Xia's knowledge and writing level, presumably the secondary creation based on the original idea will not lose to the original work, and only in this way will Yang Xia feel at ease, otherwise, a movie, what you plagiarized is not as good as the original work, and deprives the original author of the rights, so that others lose their jobs, anyway, this is also a failure for the reborn.

However, for Xiangcheng Port movies, Yang Xia is only an emergency, and he is not ready to engage in plagiarism for a long time, no matter what, it is still necessary to leave some opportunities for the original author, of course, the deep-seated reason is that Yang Xia has arrived in Xiangcheng Port, and he has "immigrated" to this place, Yang Xia feels that his eating appearance should not be too ugly.

Isn't it plagiarism? That's a great deal. Of course, Yang Xia wants to continue his plagiarism career, but the focus of the target is not on Xiangcheng Port or Treasure Island, but on the West, and the focus is on the United States.

In Yang Xia's thoughts, if he doesn't produce an average of two Hollywood movie scripts every year, I'm really sorry for his title of a third-rate writer in his previous life.

In later generations, many online novels seem to be able to easily plagiarize or copy the Haolaiwu movie when writing about the plot of the reborn, which Yang Xia disagrees with, because it is illogical YY, which is impossible in reality.

Why do you say this, because ordinary people watching a movie may see its wonderful plot, exquisite picture, actors' appearance or acting skills, and even the idea of the work, but only writers and artists and other characters, when watching the movie, there will be a process, that is, after watching the movie, they will recall it as a whole, not just recall the plot, but through guò memories to figure out the structure of the whole story, aesthetic implications, including creativity, etc., that is, when writers and artists appreciate works of art, they will instinctively absorb some nutrients that are conducive to creation.

There is a saying in Huaxia that laymen look at the liveliness and insiders look at the doorway, which is the case.

Therefore, Yang Xia has not watched many famous Hollywood movies in his previous life. After being reborn, after Yang Xia received the first manuscript fee for publishing "The Story of Lao Ma Shan", he began to plan how to rob the gold from the rice film vault.

However, the plan to rob the gold of the American film must be placed after he has gained a firm foothold in Xiangcheng Port, if the whole two songs, each can be sold for 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, the movie script should be sold at least 500,000 or 1 million meters, after all, that thing is a tome, a big idea, and a big creation.

So far, Yang Xia doesn't know how much a song can sell or how much a Hollywood movie script can sell, but Yang Xia insists that his estimate is correct.

Because of these created works, their prices depend on the local basic salary and price level, in the United States, at this time, the unemployment benefits have reached the level of 500 meters per month, ordinary university professors, the annual salary is about 100,000, and the slightly more well-known professors have an annual salary of more than 300,000 meters, and Hollywood Film, itself is a high-risk and high-return industry.

Maybe you write ten books, none of them are selected, but what Yang Xia wants to write are the movies that have been proven to have the highest box office value, as long as Haolaiwu is still controlled by capitalists, there is no reason not to shoot some of the movies that he plagiarized.

Yang Xia drew on the paper for a while, and finally wrote a few words, if you know Yang Xia's mental activities, you will definitely spell out a special phrase: plagiarism studio. (To be continued......)
