Wang Tongxue finally agreed to Ye Feng's conditions, because in his opinion, the box office of 40 million is an unattainable dream, and even if it is really achieved, 50 percent of 40 million is more than 70 percent of 20 million, and he is a big winner.

After finalizing the contract for the tertiary film, Wang Tongxue wanted to invite Ye Feng to lunch together, but just when the two were about to leave Tianyuan Mansion together, Ye Feng received a call from Mr. Li.

"Mr. Wang, I still have something to do, so I won't bother today, and we will have dinner together next time." Ye Feng hung up the phone and said goodbye to Wang Tongxue with a smile.

Wang Tongxue could also hear the content of the phone call on the side just now, and secretly said in his heart that this young man is really a potential fruit, and immediately understood and smiled enthusiastically after hearing the words: "Okay, then we can decide, next time we are free, we must have a meal together, I also want to talk to you about the script of the film." ”

Ye Feng smiled and nodded, said goodbye to Wang Tongxue, and took a taxi to the meeting place agreed with Old Man Li.

……………

It is not quite the same as the mainland books are printed and published, many novels on Hong Kong Island are serialized in newspapers or magazines, and over the years Hong Kong Island citizens have also adapted to this form, many people read newspapers just to catch up with the novels in the newspapers, in the era of martial arts fire, a popular martial arts novel can even pull the sales of the entire newspaper, one person saves a newspaper is not a casual boast, in this environment, the author of a popular novel is self-evident how important these newspapers are.

It's a pity that this time is different from the past, and now the talent of martial arts novels is withering, and there has not been such a grand situation as one person saving one newspaper for several years.

Some good martial arts novels of people in the industry have been written by their predecessors, and no one will write better martial arts novels, and that glorious stage has become a thing of the past, and it will never appear again.

Qi Mingyuan, the editor-in-chief of "Zhuming Daily", also agreed with these remarks, thinking that there could be no better martial arts novels, but just a few days ago, his idea was completely overturned, and what overturned his idea was a martial arts novel called "Smiling Proud Jianghu", when he first got the manuscript, he didn't care too much, but when he read the hundreds of thousands of words in one go, he felt that the whole world in front of him lit up, and he was sure that he had caught the dawn of the revival of martial arts novels!

"Smiling Proud Jianghu", Qi Mingyuan was simply fascinated by it, when he flipped through the novel, every character in this story jumped on the page, as if they were all living people, as well as its story, its background, its meaning, read it throughout, Qi Mingyuan thinks that it has surpassed the level of martial arts novels, it can already be called martial arts literature.

For three whole days, Qi Mingyuan was completely immersed in the world of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", he read it again and again, and every time he read it, he would have new gains, which also made him more admired and admired by this martial arts novel.

Sobering up from the world of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", Qi Mingyuan realized that this novel is not only an excellent martial arts novel, but also an important opportunity for "Zhuming Daily", perhaps this novel can save the "Zhuming Daily" that is on the verge of collapse.

Therefore, Qi Mingyuan came, and he crossed the strait for "Smiling Proud Jianghu".

"Old Li, have you already made an appointment?"

On the top floor of Yongji Teahouse, by the window, a middle-aged man about fifty years old and an old man in his seventies and eighties sat opposite each other.

Li Guangshan looked at Qi Mingyuan, who was full of anticipation on the other side, smiled slightly, and said, "Xiao Qi, you are also a person who has gone through the wind and waves, why are you so unbreathable today." ”

Qi Mingyuan took a sip of tea with some anxiety when he heard this, the tea was warm and fragrant, which made his expression relax a little: "Old Li, you don't know the current form of "Zhuming Daily", it is not an exaggeration to say that it is precarious, you also know that I have been working in "Zhuming Daily" for most of my life, and I really don't want to see it fall." ”

Li Guangshan nodded understandingly, took a sip of tea, and then asked a little teasingly: "So now do you think this "Smiling Proud Jianghu" can save "Zhuming Daily"?" I remember when you first sent the article, you didn't care. ”

"Don't run me." Qi Mingyuan smiled bitterly: "In the past few years, I have also been brainwashed by those martial arts pessimists, thinking that there will really be no better martial arts novels, otherwise I wouldn't have thought like that at that time, now I think about it, in the past, I really sat in the well and watched the sky, what we thought was impossible was that it was not necessarily really impossible, saying that the road has been exhausted, it's just that we don't have the ability to go out of a better way." ”

Qi Mingyuan sighed a few words, then paused slightly, looked up at Li Guangshan and said, "Old Li, you really didn't joke with me?" Is the author of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" really still a young man? ”

Li Guangshan's eyes widened when he heard this: "Nonsense, can my old man still deceive you?" ”

Qi Mingyuan laughed, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "That's not it, the main thing is that it's really a little too unbelievable, I believe you have also watched "Smiling Proud Jianghu" many times, whether it is character creation or storyline in this work, it is too high and deep, that kind of insight and vision is really hard to imagine that a young man will have." ”

"So, don't think of this boy as an ordinary teenager, if you have to find an adjective to describe him, it's a demon." Li Guangshan showed his approval this time.

"Demons? What Li Lao said is right, if this "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is really from the hands of a young man, then he really deserves the title of demon, because genius is no longer enough to describe his achievements. Qi Mingyuan nodded, and then asked, "By the way, Elder Li, you haven't told me the name of this young man yet, what should I call him later?" ”

"His surname is Ye, and his name is Ye Feng, as for the title, it is a matter between you." Old Man Li glanced at Qi Mingyuan with a smile, and didn't accept it at all, he knew very well that Qi Mingyuan deliberately asked the title to get closer to Ye Feng through himself, in that case, if he became Ye Feng's elder, he would naturally have some advantages in the negotiation, but he Li Guangshan would not be a gunman.

While the two were talking, footsteps suddenly sounded downstairs, and in a blink of an eye, a young man in a gray casual shirt came upstairs, it was Ye Feng.
