Chapter 142: Substitutions

Several people sat down in the reception area of the editor-in-chief's office, Hou Daqing kept smiling on his face, and said: "When I came yesterday, I wanted to see the true face of mortals, it's a pity, I heard them say that you took your girlfriend out on a trip, but the work assigned by the company can't be delayed, so I can only helplessly interrupt your trip." You can rest assured, when the game adaptation is negotiated, the company will compensate you. ”

Chen Ping smiled noncommittally and said, "It's okay, anyway, we have enough time to write, and it's not in the way one day earlier or one day later." ”

Hou Daqing smiled, glanced at the editor-in-chief, and then looked at Chen Ping and said, "It's not too early, let's start quickly, and I'll let Xiao Liu introduce you to the company's requirements and policies for the adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion". Let's eat together at noon, and let's talk again in the afternoon, what do you think? ”

"No problem."

"That's good." Hou Daqing turned his head to look at the editor-in-chief, and said again: "Editor-in-chief Chen, I want to ask you to help arrange a conference room." ”

The editor-in-chief squinted his eyes and was about to speak, but Chen Ping spoke automatically.

"Don't be so troublesome, just say it here, I don't know much about contracts or anything, just let the editor-in-chief help me with the staff officer."

Hou Daqing's face changed slightly, but he still smiled and nodded. Then he instructed Xiao Liu, who was beside him, to explain to Chen Ping the change requirements of "Immortal Rebellion" and the policies given by Shanda.

Shanda's requirements for game adaptation are very cumbersome, and several of them make Chen Pingda frown.

First of all, Chen Ping was asked to participate in the game adaptation of Xian Rebellion, and put forward necessary suggestions and plot guidance for game developers at any time; Chen Ping was also asked to provide the game developers with a reduced version of the story outline of the fairy rebellion, and to list the main characters who appeared in the fairy rebellion novel as a list of sympathetic characters. There are also level settings, magic weapons that have appeared, and even Chen Ping is required to write clearly which scene maps in the novel are suitable for dungeon development. The point is. actually required that in the process of game development, Chen Ping must ensure that he is on call. Facilitate the development work.

Seeing Chen Ping's brows furrowed, Hou Daqing's face gradually became gloomy.

After Xiao Liu finished reading the grand request, Chen Ping said: "There are a few requirements that I can't do, and this must be modified." ”

Hou Daqing had expected that Chen Ping would put forward his opinion, smiled faintly, and motioned for Chen Ping to continue.

"The reduced version of the story outline is okay, but the list of characters, the magic weapon function and the dungeon map, I can't do anything about it. "Immortal Rebellion" is nearly 7 million words long. If I sort out the materials according to your requirements, it will take up a lot of my creative time, and I don't know what information is needed for the game adaptation, so it's better for you to use professional personnel to collect it. Chen Ping didn't care about the changes in the faces of Hou Daqing and the two staff members beside him, and continued: "Also, you already know that I Jihua spent three months traveling, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be no special circumstances in my future life. So, during the development of the game, I can give you some advice in my free time, but I will never be on call. ”

Speaking of zuihou. Hou Daqing's face was completely gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Our game developers are all professionals, and they are very good at the field of game development. But for the novel "Immortal Rebellion", many of them have not read it, if they are asked to collect information. Not only is it a waste of manpower, but it also wastes a lot of time. So, I ask for your forgiveness on this point. And ......"

Chen Ping unceremoniously interrupted Hou Daqing's words and said: "Since you are going to adapt "Immortal Rebellion", if your game developers haven't even seen "Immortal Rebellion", what kind of adaptation can you talk about? Even if I provide you with the information you need, let a group of people who have not seen "Xian Rebellion" develop this game, you think you can develop a fun game, of course, I don't question the ability of your developers, I'm just worried that the game you developed is not very related to "Xian Rebellion", in this case, isn't it a sheep's head selling dog meat? So, I suggest you developers take a look at the book "Immortal Rebellion" before we get to it. ”

"How do you speak? Our game developers' time is precious, so how can we waste a lot of time reading boring web novels. The other young man beside Hou Daqing couldn't help but speak, looking at Chen Ping with contempt.

Chen Ping glanced at him, then looked at Hou Daqing, and saw that Hou Daqing didn't have the idea of speaking, so he looked at the young man and asked: "I don't require everyone to read online novels, if you don't have a hobby of reading online novels, please leave this discussion group, I don't want to talk about work with a person who thinks "Immortal Rebellion" is boring." After speaking, regardless of this person's expression, he looked at Hou Daqing and asked, "Does what he just said represent Shanda Company?" If so, I voluntarily gave up the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion". After speaking, he got up directly, said sorry to the editor-in-chief, and left the editor-in-chief's office.

The editor-in-chief's face was calm, and after sending Chen Ping away, he returned to the office again, sat in his place, and said nothing.

Hou Daqing's face was gloomy as water, Xiao Liu looked at Chen Ping's back as he left in disbelief, and the other man kept scolding, talking about Chen Ping's arrogance.

"Smack!"

The young man who kept complaining covered his face and looked at Hou Daqing incredulously, with incomprehension and grievance in his eyes.

"You go now, go back to the headquarters, report today's events to the leaders, and in addition, let the headquarters send people again." Hou Daqing looked furious.

"Mr. Hou, I ......"

"Didn't you hear what I said? Get lost! ”

The young man walked out dejected, he couldn't figure it out, weishenme himself helped Mr. Hou to get angry, and Mr. Hou treated himself like this.

"Editor-in-Chief Chen, I'm smiling at you, today is indeed our lack of preparation, and after the headquarters comes again, we will trouble you to contact mortals." After speaking, he also got up and left the office with Xiao Liu.

Chen Ping is in a very bad mood, Nima's, you found my brother to adapt my brother's novel, and made a domineering appearance, my brother cares so much about this adaptation?

Back at home, Huang Qian was a little surprised that Chen Ping came back so quickly, seeing that Chen Ping's face was very bad, and he didn't dare to ask him about the negotiation, and when Chen Ping was called out after the meal was ready, Chen Ping took the initiative to tell him about today's events.

"Well, I've got your back. They took the initiative to find us, and they made so many unreasonable demands, they simply treated you as an employee of their company. That's how it should be, kill their spirits, and let them know that we are not at their mercy. ”

In the afternoon, Chen Ping coded at home, and it was not until the evening that he received a call from Grape.

"I heard about the morning, it's sharp, I support you. Your sister, the head office is amazing, it's just a game adaptation, what do you think we do? ”

"You're calling just to say that?" Chen Ping knew that Grape definitely didn't call to comfort himself, and sure enough, Grape smiled and said again: "The editor-in-chief asked me to inform you that tomorrow the grand conference will send someone over to negotiate again, and you will have to come at that time." ”

"Nima, when do they come? If you don't go, if you really want to talk, just wait for my brother to call, and when my brother is in a good mood, I will notify you. ”

At this time, Chen Ping had a childish temper, and Huang Qian next to him couldn't help but laugh when she heard his words. Chen Ping hung up the phone as if he hadn't heard it, walked to Huang Qian's side, hugged her and said, "Brother is domineering, isn't he? ”

"Hee-hee, domineering."

"Men don't?"

"Yes, man."

"That brother will let you see the domineering of men."

"Hmm......"

After some rain and clouds, Huang Qian pinched Chen Ping's arm with a red face and complained: "I didn't provoke you, why are you angry with me." ”

Chen Ping smiled and didn't make a sound, but in his heart he remembered what the editor-in-chief said.

The next morning, many people discussed the adaptation of the game "Immortal Rebellion" in the book review area of "Demon Law", and for half a day, not only the starting point was the news of the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion", but other websites also began to discuss.

There were even people who spread the words that Chen Ping said at the starting point, and for a while, the news of the bad attitude of the staff of Shanda Company spread far and wide. The starting point is grand, mortals make a living at the starting point, and mortals dare to speak so to Shanda. Moreover, if it can really be negotiated as a game adaptation, it will be a lot of income, and mortals are not afraid of Shanda being angry and giving up the adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion"?

In the afternoon, Chen Ping received a strange phone call.

"Hello, is it the author of "Immortal Rebellion"?" A crisp female voice came through the phone.

Chen Ping was a little puzzled, there were very few people who knew their phone number, this strange call?

"Who are you?"

"I'm Li Bing from Shanda Company, and I called you to ask when you are free, and we can start negotiations on the adaptation of the game "Immortal Rebellion"."

"Who's in charge of this now?"

"It's still Mr. Hou, but Mr. Hou has something to do temporarily and goes on a business trip. I am now in charge of the adaptation of the game "Immortal Rebellion", and you can also ask me if you have any requirements, and we will fully consider your suggestions. ”

Business trip? I'm afraid I'm embarrassed to come back, right?

Chen Ping smiled softly and said, "Tomorrow, it's still in the editorial department of the starting point." ”

"Haode, we'll be there on time tomorrow morning, waiting for you."

Request, Chen Ping really didn't have it, what he wanted was just to use the simplest way to facilitate this matter, and of course the less he assumed, the better, and the more money Shanda paid, the better.

The next day, Chen Ping came to the starting point at nine o'clock, and sure enough, if he said on the phone yesterday, the Shanda staff came on time, and it could even be said that they came earlier than Chen Ping, because when he came to the editorial office of the starting point, these two people had already sat in the editor-in-chief's office.

Or Xiao Liu, who explained to Chen Ping last time Shanda Company's requirements for the adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion", the other one is a girl who is a little short, but with a very natural smile on her face, seeing that she is not older, when she saw Chen Ping, the girl took the initiative to get up and stretched out her hand, and said: "Hello mortal, I am Li Bing, who spoke to you on the phone yesterday, and I am temporarily responsible for the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion".
