Chapter 119: Script Trading

Selling scripts? Sun Peng was not interested at all.

dragged out some of the blessings of traveling through novels, Sun Peng knew that in the real world, it was unrealistic to make directors or investors shout genius with a wonderful script, and rush to grab it. With his current fame, it is difficult for the script he writes to receive special attention, especially a TV series like Lonely Gourmet, which has a small audience and low investment, if it weren't for his brain cramps and wanting to give it to Lin Lin, Sun Peng wouldn't have written it at all.

However, if you sell things you don't need to others, Sun Peng will definitely not object.

It's like a lonely gourmet, he got it all out, anyway, he can't shoot it himself, Lin Lin can't shoot it here, how much can he get back some money if he sells it to others, what's so bad?

So without much hesitation at all, Sun Peng waved his hand lazily and said, "No problem, let's go back and let them talk to the eldest sister, if necessary, I can even write more." As for remuneration...... Hehe, my requirements are not high, and the industry's average level of omni-channel distribution has worked. ”

Anyway, he also signed a contract with Crazy Lady, and Sun Peng knows a lot now.

Unlike the earth, the role of screenwriters in the field of movies and TV dramas is very important in this world, and organizations such as the Screenwriters Guild are also very strong, so a complete set of screenwriters' interest protection system has slowly been formed. Among them, the most important is undoubtedly the formulation of standards and the supervision of data statistics.

There are two types of income for screenwriters like writing novels: buyouts and shares.

Needless to say, how much money people pay to buy the script in one go, it has nothing to do with the screenwriter later. In terms of sharing, no matter how much money is earned, or how much money is sold, a certain percentage of the share is given to the screenwriter, but some contracts will limit the share to only certain areas, while some contracts include all income.

By omni-channel, what Sun Peng means is all income related to lonely gourmets!

"Uh...... Omnichannel shared? ”

Lin Lin originally looked very happy, but after listening to Sun Peng's words, she was stunned. This...... Isn't it just a few pages? You haven't done anything, why are you omnichannel all at once?

"Nonsense, of course, is divided."

Glancing at his cousin, Sun Peng smiled and said, "Could it be that your friend thought that the script was just such an episode, so he wanted to simply buy out the copyright and not be able to do it himself in the future?" Hehe, he's funny......"

“……”

After being stunned for a while, Lin Lin grinned awkwardly.

In fact, Sun Peng guessed correctly, her friend really thought so!

When people look at the script, there are only a few pages per episode, and I heard Lin Lin say that her cousin also proposed a concept and wrote a script for one episode, so she generously said that she wanted to buy out the copyright. At that time, Lin Lin was quite happy, and felt that she seemed to have a good face, but now it looks ......

"Myself...... Doing something stupid again? ”

A little uneasy in his heart, Lin Lin suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaopeng, your script is really so powerful?" So have you registered with the Screenwriters Guild? ”

"Registration? What to sign up for? ”

"Alas, I forgot to tell you!"

Patting his head, Lin Lin shook his head with a look of annoyance.

After his cousin's patient explanation, Sun Peng immediately understood. The protection of copyright in the world depends not only on those laws and regulations, but also on industry associations in various industries and their work registration systems. For example, on the Screenwriters Guild's script registration website, if there is no other strong evidence, everything is based on the time when the script or outline is uploaded......

"No, not registered."

Shrugging his shoulders, Sun Peng said with a smile: "And I don't think this script is actually anything special, it's just a mixture of several food programs, and then there are some special things, there's no need to register, right?" ”

"Hmm...... Also. ”

Thinking about the script of the episode written by Sun Peng, Lin Lin also nodded. The front is a little bit of a person's work, bland and boring, as for the part of the back that eats, there is nothing special, it is to praise the color and aroma of the food in a very exaggerated tone, only the middle protagonist chooses food and the mental activity when eating is a little interesting......

"Okay, let the eldest sister talk."

After exhaling softly, Lin Lin also relaxed.

Hearing that Sun Peng's mouth was the share of all channels just now, Lin Lin suddenly panicked, and thought that he had done something stupid. After all, the director has worked together twice, and they are not particularly familiar with each other, so if they really stole Sun Peng's creativity, it would be a big sin. But now that my cousin says this, it seems that this idea is not a big deal......

If Sun Peng knew what Lin Lin was thinking at this time, he would inevitably nod his head.

In fact, in Sun Peng's opinion, even if the idea is really stolen, how big is it?

Do you really think that with a script, you can make good things?

Don't be funny!

Take the lonely gourmet, a scary and untechnical little book that seems to be low-cost to shoot, is it really anyone who can shoot well? Not to mention the acting skills of the protagonists, as well as the obvious things such as the selection of restaurants and food, how can it be so easy to do those supporting roles, the writing of inner monologues, and many interesting soundtracks?

To put it mildly, a simple play is not simple!

As far as picking the soundtrack that looks inconspicuous is concerned, it is very different from choosing the menu after entering the restaurant at the beginning, to posing after the food is served, and then to the main character eating. And in the whole process of eating, the initial taste, the later aftertaste, and then the final wind, how many paragraphs are there?

After eating, at least seven or eight tunes accompany the protagonist!

Not to mention that these songs are not chosen casually, the style of the soundtrack strictly matches the mood of the protagonist when eating, from the joy of tasting at the beginning to the final outburst, which one is not closely related to the theme of the picture? After a complete set, the picture, voiceover and soundtrack are integrated, so that the audience can accompany the protagonist to complete this perfect meal from the initial smile to the last heartiness!

Without a few knives, they couldn't steal this idea!

That's why Sun Peng's worries about Lin Lin are so careless, the script only writes the general process and those inner monologues of the protagonist when he eats, which seems to reflect the backbone of the whole play, but if you study it carefully, you will know that the real essence has not been written at all, okay?

But well......

"Well, I'll go and sign up tomorrow."

After thinking about it for a while, Sun Peng finally planned to spend a little money. Creativity and scripts are really not necessary, but Sun Peng still likes the name of lonely gourmet......

What if Lin Lin's friend is really unreliable?
