Although he knew Zhao Qiong's identity, Chen Ping did not dare to have too much hope for the film and television adaptation of "Kongtong". Considering that the popularity and influence of "Kongtong" are not high now, Chen Ping only wrote down Zhao Qiong's contact information, and it is not too late to discuss film and television adaptations after the influence of "Kongtong" comes out in the future.

After sending Zhao Qiong away, it was close to noon, and the hotel's service staff sent back the laundry that had been washed, and the two of them packed up and prepared to leave SZ and go to HZ.

HZ has been known as a paradise on earth since ancient times, and there are countless tourist attractions, such as West Lake, Leifeng Pagoda, Jinshan Temple, Lingyin Temple and so on. SZ is not far from HZ, and it is just over an hour by car.

On the way to HZ, Chen Ping received a call from Li Jing, editor of Southwest Publishing House.

"The printing of "Kongtong" has been completed, and now we are waiting for the time to be put on sale, and the club is ready to invite you to GX to hold a book signing in Gui L, and you will see when you will have time."

GX？

If Chen Ping didn't come out to travel, he would have time every day, not to mention that there are flights from S City to GX, which is very convenient to take a plane. But now that Chen Ping has come out, if he goes to GX now, his travel jihua will be stranded.

"I'm traveling now, and it's a self-driving trip, according to the jihua we set, there is also a stop at Gui L, but it takes a long time. Why don't you put it on sale first, see how well the market reacts first, and then I'll come over after a while? ”

Li Jing hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "That's okay." If you can, I still recommend speeding up your trip. Come to GX as soon as possible. Also, you make a statement on the online version of "Empty Same". Sale starts on December 10th, do you think it's okay? ”

"Well, I'll send it, you can just watch the sales time."

As soon as he hung up Li Jing's phone, Chen Ping's phone rang again, and it was actually from this guy Grape.

"Where are you now?"

"On the way to HZ, what's wrong?"

"Come back quickly, someone from Shanda's headquarters is here, saying that they want to talk to you about the adaptation of the game "Immortal Rebellion". The whole company is boiling, this is another innovation in online novels, game adaptation, hehe. Grape was thrilled because his colleagues throughout the editorial office looked at him with envy. In the past, as long as mortals set records, they would also envy themselves, but this envy has become accustomed to grapes, and besides, there are also great gods in other editorial groups. As the starting point readership grows, so will the number of VIP readers, and those records set by mortals will surely be broken by someone else someday. But game adaptation is not something that can be achieved by the efforts of the author or the support of readers.

In November, the editor-in-chief told Chen Ping that he was interested in adapting "Immortal Rebellion". also said that the time would not drag on for too long, Chen Ping was indeed excited for a few days at that time, but as the days passed. He didn't receive a notice all the time, and Chen Ping's mind slowly faded.

Get notified now. Chen Ping definitely couldn't refuse Shanda like he had just rejected Li Jing, so he turned around and returned to S City. If you delay it for two days, you will delay it for two days.

In the evening, after returning to S City, Chen Ping called Grape and inquired in detail to find out that the person sent by Shanda Company had already stayed in the hotel and would be able to meet at the starting point company tomorrow.

After it was confirmed, Chen Ping's mood calmed down a lot, he logged in to the starting point account, issued the date of sale on the shelves in the works related to "Empty Same", and then released the "Demon Law" that needed to be updated today. After the update, Chen Ping remembered Li Qiushui's book, and clicked on the page after searching.

It's okay, this kid keeps three chapters updated every day, although the number of words in each chapter is not much, only more than 2,000 words, but the victory is that the update is stable. The popularity has also increased, but compared to other novels with hot themes, it is still a bit bleak.

"Girl, you send the book written by Li Qiushui to advertise in the group."

Huang Qian followed Chen Ping's instructions, found Li Qiushui's page, copied the link and posted it in the group.

Seeing Huang Qian's appearance, many book friends in the group asked.

"Mortal wife, where have you and mortal Da gone now? When will it arrive at HZ? ”

"Brother is from JX, when will you come here?"

"Seek tourist routes, chase and intercept mortals."

……

"We've gone back to S City."

"What? Went back? Fuck, the chickens are all killed, the wine is ready, and you actually told me you went back? ”

"Weishenme go back? Didn't you say you were going to travel for more than a month? We're all waiting. ”

"Shanda said that he was going to discuss the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion", so we came back."

"Game adaptation?"

"Damn, such a big thing has been hidden from us until now? If you don't die, you won't die! ”

Huang Qian smiled and watched the book friends in the group keep complaining, although one or two swear words popped up from time to time, but it didn't sound uncomfortable.

Huang Qian chatted, Chen Ping coded words, this is a habit developed for a long time.

When it was twelve o'clock, Chen Ping finished writing, and the two of them went to sleep.

At eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, Chen Ping drove directly to the starting point company.

Editor-in-Chief's Office.

The editor-in-chief's face was a little unsightly, he had been preparing for the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion" for a long time, and even prepared a promotion jihua himself, but after seeing the person sent by Shanda yesterday, the smile on his face disappeared.

Last time, the recommendation of "Buddha is the Way" was negative, and the editor-in-chief decisively fired Li Changyou. And Li Changyou's cousin, Hou Daqing, an executive of Shanda Company, must be dissatisfied with himself. At the time of Shanda's acquisition, Hou Daqing, as the editor-in-chief of Shanda's literary website, was full of confidence and ready to ascend to the throne of editor-in-chief of the starting point, but the editor-in-chief had too many contacts at the starting point, and the editor-in-chief's work ability was also very strong, which made Shanda Company dare not directly intervene in the personnel transfer of the starting point website.

Now that the starting point is gradually stabilizing, Shanda has also begun to take back the management rights of the starting point.

Some time ago, the editor-in-chief got the news that Shanda was going to appoint two deputy editors-in-chief to the starting point, and the editor-in-chief didn't care at that time. To be honest, at the starting point, in addition to the editor-in-chief holding the power, several other deputy editors-in-chief are responsible for the operation and other channels, all matters of the starting point Chinese website are personally grasped by the editor-in-chief, even if two more deputy editors-in-chief are sent, they cannot influence the development direction of the starting point.

Now it's different, Hou Daqing is actually the person in charge of the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion".

Everyone has their own opinion on the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion". The editors below envy mortals, envy mortal editors Grape, and they envy the benefits that mortals and Grape have obtained through "Immortal Rebellion".

Other websites envy the starting point because the starting point has many great gods and attracts a huge number of readers, and to put it bluntly, the starting point has a higher profit than them.

In an increasingly realistic society, everything is illusory except that profit is the most real.

Hou Daqing is responsible for the game adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion", and what he can obtain is not direct benefits, but potential qualifications. If "Immortal Rebellion" is successfully signed under his supervision and successfully adapted, his position within Shanda will rise, and if he wants to intervene in the management of the starting point website at that time, Shanda will definitely support him internally. At that time, the position of the editor-in-chief will be in jeopardy, which is the reason why the editor-in-chief is not happy.

It was already ten o'clock when Chen Ping came to the editor-in-chief's office, and when he saw the editor-in-chief sitting in the office, Chen Ping was a little puzzled, didn't he say that he would come over to discuss the adaptation of "Immortal Rebellion"? What about the people sent by the grand send?

Seeing Chen Ping coming, the editor-in-chief reluctantly squeezed out a smile and beckoned Chen Ping to sit down.

"The staff of the grand haven't come over yet, and they drank a little too much at the reception banquet last night."

Chen Ping smiled and nodded in understanding, and then asked: "Editor-in-chief, "Immortal Rebellion" is not only the first novel adapted into a game on the starting point website, but also the first book in the entire online literature industry, do we have to take this opportunity to hype it up." ”

The editor-in-chief also thinks so, if you look at the promotion jihua that he wrote out personally, the starting point can be kept on the cusp for at least three months, you know, on the Internet, if you have maintained a high level of popularity, how huge the invisible assets are bringed, but it's a pity......

"This, it depends on what the person in charge of the game adaptation says, this time I'm just the middleman, and I'll have to talk about it yourself later."

Seeing that the editor-in-chief's performance today was a little abnormal, Chen Ping's heart couldn't help jumping, and he whispered: "You know, I'm not good at negotiating, why don't you lend me two people from the legal department?" ”

The editor-in-chief glanced at Chen Ping inexplicably and nodded.

"Editor-in-chief, game adaptation isn't so easy to talk about, is it? Do you think it's better to talk about a week or a month? ”

A light flashed in the editor-in-chief's eyes, and when he looked at Chen Ping again, there was gratitude hidden in his eyes, but his mouth said: "This is a matter related to your income, and it is of course better to negotiate it as soon as possible than to drag it out." Of course, the contract must be rigorously reviewed. After a pause, the editor-in-chief pondered for a while, and then said: "This may be that I have been in Zuihou at the starting point for a while, I can help you once, and in the future, your character will also be changed, and the interests will still be fought for by yourself." ”

zuihou for a while?

Chen Ping's eyes narrowed, as if he had thought of something, nodded and did not speak.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock that the three men walked into the editor-in-chief's office together. The leader was the emaciated Hou Daqing, who walked in with a smile on his face, and when he saw Chen Ping, he quickened his pace, stretched out his hand, and said: "You are the author of "Immortal Rebellion", a mortal, I have admired my name for a long time, and I am also your loyal reader." ”

Chen Ping also cooperated and stretched out his hand, "Hello." (To be continued......)
