"Hello Ha wife, we have made a lot of money now, come, the champagne is not finished yet, let's have another drink to celebrate." As soon as Chen Lin sent Xing Ye away, he was overjoyed as soon as he returned to the room, he poured two glasses full of champagne, raised one glass, and gave the other one to Yu Yu.

"Cheers!" Yu Yu pursed her lips and clinked glasses with Chen Lin, and then said with a smile: "With the golden sign of Zhou Xingchi, "The King of Comedy" is not worried about box office sales, and this deal is indeed very profitable." ”

"Hehe, Yu'er, you're wrong, what I said about making a lot of money not only refers to this investment, but also includes getting the copyright of "Journey to the West". Chen Lin said with a smile.

After negotiating the investment in "The King of Comedy", he took the opportunity to propose to Xing Ye to buy the copyright of "Journey to the West", including film screening, VCD sales and game adaptation rights.

Zhou Xingchi was happy, and generously authorized the copyright to Chen Lin's Jade Emperor Entertainment without charging any copyright fees.

"Oh, what's the profit from the copyright of "Journey to the West", and what other mysteries are there?" Yu Yu wondered after hearing this.

"Of course, Yu'er, you guess, if you guess it, there will be a prize." Chen Lin sold Guanzi.

Is there really a mystery? Yu Yu couldn't help but use his brain to think about it when he heard this: According to Lin Lin's statement, there must be at least tens of millions of profits, and at least he must earn no less than investing in "The King of Comedy" to make him so happy, but is that possible?

She also knows the truth about this "Journey to the West", when this film was first broadcast, the box office was also in a good situation, but the "good start" did not last long, and the subsequent overall distribution took a sharp turn, even in the most popular Hong Kong market at the time, it did not achieve good results, although it was able to recover the cost, but compared with Zhou Xingchi's previous films, it was far from it.

At that time, she was in Beijing, and the managers of various film companies were not very optimistic about this film, thinking that it was 'too noisy and too noisy'. As a movie that is not favored, it naturally does not have much publicity in Beijing, and no one buys it in other cities in the mainland.

Even if Lin Lin increases his publicity efforts now, but after all, this is an outdated old film, and its best profit period has passed, who wants to spend money to watch an old film? Although there is no copyright fee, the money earned may not be enough to cover the publicity fee.

She couldn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Lin Hulu, as for the so-called game adaptation, she automatically filtered it, don't be kidding, is there a game in China at present? In the end, Yu Yu shook her head and gave up thinking.

Chen Lin couldn't help but laugh secretly when he saw that his smart wife would be confused, this is the limitation of the times. Even social elites such as Yu Yu and Zhou Xingchi have lost their eyes, how could the two of them have thought that "Journey to the West" has become popular on mainland university campuses since 98.

"Journey to the West" can be said to be a miracle in the history of film, and it may be the only movie that has experienced a dismal box office and a bad reputation, and suddenly became popular again a few years later.

It is even more unlikely that the two would have thought that in 2001, NetEase produced the online game "Journey to the West" based on this film, and later launched a more classic "Fantasy Journey to the West", creating a record of more than 310 million registered users and the highest number of simultaneous online users of 2.71 million, it is worth mentioning that this online game has endured for 10 years. In 2013, it was still popular.

How much money can you make from a classic game? Chen Tianqiao, who represented "Legend", relied on it to become the richest man in China in 2004 with a net worth of 9 billion.

In the next 10 years, Chen Lin can almost easily sit and collect tens of billions of profits, the so-called copyright in hand, counting the money to the hand cramps.

"Lin Lin, tell me what kind of medicine you sell in your gourd?" Yu Yu couldn't help but ask when she saw that Chen Lin was smug and itching.

Chen Lin smiled and revealed a little mystery. Naturally, he didn't mention the game, but pointed out that he was optimistic that "Journey to the West" would have a second spring, and the main reason why mainland film companies and movie theaters were not optimistic about the film was that the film was too advanced.

Everyone is used to Zhou Xingchi's nonsense, but the nonsensical adaptation of classics like "Journey to the West" made it difficult for people at the time to accept it for a while.

You want Tang Seng to chirp crookedly. Sun Wukong talks about love, can this be accepted by the people at that time?

But college students are different, they are naturally receptive to new things. Now in '98, Chen Lin believes that the student community will like the film, and he plans to sell the film to the students.

Chen Lin's reason was laid out, and Yu Yu said that he was not convinced, and he didn't believe it? It's okay, just wait and see.

"By the way, Lin Lin, what do you have about the script of "The King of Comedy", why haven't I heard you reveal a little bit of rumors?" Yu Yu tilted his head and looked at Chen Lin's face carefully, and suddenly said curiously.

In fact, she was curious from the beginning of Chen Lin and Zhou Xingchi's conversation, she really hadn't heard Chen Lin talk about this script beforehand.

"Damn! Wife, can't you be a little confused? When Chen Lin heard this, he couldn't help but secretly feel a headache in his heart.

is still the old way, Chen Lin used the trick Dafa and lied that he had nothing to do when he was filming in Bei*Beijing, and observed some extras to come up with it, and then, of course, he wanted to divert his wife's attention.

How to divert attention? 'Wife, look at the flying saucer', okay? Maybe, right?

Chen Lin's method is to pick up his wife and go to the bedroom, and add playful and cute words: "It's not early, hug my little baby and go to sleep." ”

After the bedroom door closed, the voices of the two of them soon came from inside.

"Wife, I've been too busy to hand in my homework for the past two days, hehe, can I make up all my homework tonight?"

"I'm not feeling well today, I can't do it!"

"Ah, wife, where are you uncomfortable, let me take a look, it's okay, your forehead is not hot, are you eating seafood and making your stomach upset? I'll take you to the doctor right away. ”

"You're a pig, that's here."

"Oh my God, it's been a long night, how can I spend tonight without sleeping!"

"Giggles, you don't want to sleep, do you, then you go down."

"Don't, I'll sleep, I'll sleep."

"Sleep obediently, don't move your hands"

Early the next morning, Chen Lin and his entourage set off back to Chang*sha with large bags of gifts.

Sitting on the plane, Chen Lin squinted his eyes and mentally planned his next work.

Next, his main work is: recording "Two Days and One Night", launching the TV series project "The Story of the Cooking Class", and preparing the company's first large-scale martial arts TV series.

"Two Days and One Night" is ready after half a year of preparation, if it weren't for the temporary adjustment of the schedule of "Meteor Garden" in advance, I am afraid that the show would have met the audience now.

His original plan for the first episode of "Two Days and One Night" was to start broadcasting on April 5, and now it has been adjusted to May 3 and Sunday, so he will record the first episode of the program immediately after returning to the company.

The script of "The Story of the Cooking Class" has been completed after one month of creation, and the company has sent someone to contact the Air Force Television Art Center, they are very interested in this TV series that reflects the grassroots company of the Air Force, full of humor and humor, and agree to cooperate.

The production of the drama "Cooking Class" was simply handed over by Chen Lin to the company's TV production department, and he didn't put a lot of energy into it.

His energy is ready to be used in the second and first big production that the company will shoot this year, and a martial arts drama with a larger investment than "Meteor Garden".

This big-budget martial arts drama is the classic martial arts "Fengyun Dominates the World" adapted from the comic "Fengyun".

This time he was in a hurry to Hong Kong, and he didn't have time to visit the famous Hong Kong cartoonist Ma Rongcheng, so he had to wait until the start of "Two Days and One Night" to talk to the cartoonist about the adaptation of "Fengyun".

By the way, when it comes to the adaptation and the operation of the "Journey to the West" project, this matter is also very important, as for his role as the screenwriter of "The King of Comedy", there is no need to rush, this movie is mainly prepared by Xinghui Company in the second half of this year at the earliest.

Hey, when he thought of being busy with so many things, Chen Lin suddenly felt pain and happiness, until he got off the plane and was on the way to the company, he received a good news from the company that he felt refreshed again.

Bei*jing Cable TV quoted a high price of 500,000 yuan per episode to buy the second round of broadcast rights of "Meteor Garden" in the mainland. (To be continued......)
