IP, in layman's terms, is intellectual property.

When a work has a certain popularity, it means that it has an intangible asset.

The most common use of this intangible asset is to adapt the work into various forms such as comics, animations, movies, TV dramas, and selling handicrafts, and the author receives a certain share of it.

This can be referred to the anime in Japan, where their anime is rarely directly original, but buys the adaptation rights of manga and light novels, and when the work is being serialized and has a certain popularity, it is adapted into an anime at the same time to get the most effective ratings.

After Su Li came to this world, he found that this kind of IP-based phenomenon is also common in the novels here.

However, due to national conditions, China may not focus on the production of animation, and usually adapts the works into TV series, online dramas or movies, and if you want to make animation, most of them will outsource the works to companies in Japan.

Of course, the adaptation must wait for the work to have a certain popularity, otherwise the IP value is empty talk, and it generally has to go through a long period of precipitation.

That night, Su Li and Yuanyuan talked for a long time on the Internet and talked a lot about the novel.

Yuan Yuan said that he was very optimistic about Su Li's future, and believed that as long as he persisted, in two or three years, the pen name of Crisp Pear would definitely resound throughout China, and all works would have IP value.

In his previous life, literature was his dream, but he finally gave up because of practical problems.

Speaking of which, isn't it a bit ridiculous that a boy who is weak in liberal arts likes fantasy and writes novels?

It's not ridiculous.

In this life, maybe you can realize your dreams.

After that, Yuanyuan sent an electronic agreement, which was about the contract of the serialized novel-length novel "Genius Basketball Boy", which included various matters such as the expected word count of the work, copyright issues, and the sharing of manuscript fees, which should be printed and signed and mailed to the magazine.

Su Li took a serious look at it, and he may have to ask his father to sign the contract, because minors need a guardian to guarantee their creation......

There is also a manuscript fee to be paid to the bank card, Su Li does not have a bank card, and this also needs to be handled by the guardian.

In short, there is a lot to do after that.

After chatting for a long time, Su Li said goodbye to Yuanyuan and went offline.

Looking at the time, well, it's almost twelve o'clock in the evening.

At this time, I am afraid that it will be too late to do school homework...... It's okay, let's do it tomorrow.

I turned off the computer, stretched, took a shower, and threw myself on the bed.

Finally solved the problem of the source of life, and a big stone fell in Su Li, and he is now more and more confident and yearning for his future life.

Well, starting tomorrow, we have to keep working hard!

……

Du Kexin is a senior otaku girl and a night owl.

The word otaku is usually accompanied by a derogatory connotation, especially in Japan, where almost all social media have negative evaluations of groups such as otaku, such as "Dead otaku is disgusting!" "A bunch of perverts who like little boys! "No man wants social garbage! ”……

But Du Kexin believes that there is still a big difference between herself and those dead and abandoned house girls.

Because she's the kind of tech nerd that can support herself.

After graduating from college and the internship period, Du Kexin decisively resigned and stayed at home to work two part-time jobs.

A part-time job in an online store, she opened a model shop on the Internet, and made some hand-made models on weekdays, and the sales were not bad, and she received unanimous praise.

The other is a part-time novel, writing original online essays on a novel website called Diandian, and the income is ordinary.

And in her spare time on weekdays, she will also use her own skills to make some videos or something, and upload them to some barrage websites, ghost animal area, music area, short story area...... Let the audience watch and have fun. All in all, this little day is also nourishing.

In the middle of the night on Friday, Du Kexin was still at home, casually browsing the Weibo forum.

At this time, she found that her friend's Weibo had reposted a video with the words "Have you seen the sports boy?" A three-pointer will blow your mind! ”

"Huh."

Du Kexin felt funny when he read this sentence.

Athletic boys? No kidding, physical disadvantage is innate.

Even if she is now a dead housegirl who is about to rot, she can kick this so-called sports boy away with one kick.

However, driven by curiosity, she clicked on this video, and first came to the stadium of Nuoda, the empty basketball court, the boiling crowd of students around, and the sound of basketball from time to time...... It seemed to be a basketball game organized within the school.

Looking at the colorful school uniforms and skirts of the girls around her, Du Kexin couldn't help but recall her high school days, and a familiar and unfamiliar feeling enveloped her heart.

After college, how can there be such a school-organized basketball game?

It's not like eating, sleeping, sleeping, eating, playing games, watching anime, and fantasizing about being surrounded by boys all day long......

In this regard, Du Kexin does not regret it, the otaku girl is originally by nature, there is nothing to be ashamed of, anyway, she is living a good life now, and she never takes a penny from the family in terms of food and housing.

What is the saying?

In this life, I have no regrets and go to the house, and I wish to be born in the next life!

With an attitude of scrutiny, Du Kexin looked down at this video, planning to approve these "cash charges" well.

The person who shot the video had a very poor technique, the camera kept shaking, and she couldn't help frowning, if she was asked to record the video, it would definitely not be filmed like this.

After a violent shaking, the video suddenly became normal.

At this time, the center of the camera also shifted to a boy wearing a sports vest.

It seems that this is the male protagonist this time.

Du Kexin looked at it carefully, and sighed in his mouth: Well, this appearance can score eight points, barely a male god, it has a great future in the future, this body is quite strong, but the "sports boy" is a bit exaggerated, the most important test for men is only the kung fu in bed......

Du Kexin commented on the boy in the video.

At the same time, she didn't think the boy would make a difference on the basketball court.

Originally, sports is a woman's domain, no matter how strong a man is in sports, can he outrun a woman?

Sure enough, after the half-time run, the boy was relatively out of pace, and there was no one around to guard him, just like he was air.

"Pig teammates!"

Du Kexin sighed that if she was replaced, it would definitely not be like this......

Wait, what changed her, she's an otaku, otaku is always insulated from sports, okay, she played basketball in junior high school, but after high school, the "house soul" awakened, and she never touched any basketball again.

The opposing team was clearly superior and defended the boys' basketball team to the death.

Especially there is a short-haired girl, who is very beautiful, Du Kexin noticed her just now, she may be the kind of very powerful "current girl", and she runs down the audience without panting at all. With this girl here, the team on the boys' side doesn't have much chance of winning.

"Alas, it's not interesting!"

Du Kexin shook her head, inexplicably feeling funny, she was full and had nothing to do, so why come in and see this?

I haven't made up for it so many times, it's a waste of a few minutes!

Just when she wanted to turn off the video, a change occurred on the field.

"Smack!"

The point guard on the boy's side passed the basketball to the boy at this time.

Immediately after, the boy took a few steps back, flew to the three-point line, and in the blink of an eye, made a beautiful jump, threw the ball in his hand to the basket.

"Huh?"

Du Kexin was surprised, this shooting posture ...... If the impression is correct, it's pretty standard?

This made her feel a little curious, and she subconsciously stared at the basketball in the air, flying towards the basket at a parabolic angle.

Of course, subconsciously, Du Kexin didn't think that this ball would go in, after all, it was a man playing basketball......

"Brush!"

The ball went into the basket in a very nice arc.

“……”

Du Kexin rubbed his eyes.

In, in?

Du Kexin felt incredible, and she stepped back slightly from the video.

"Brush!"

Once again, the ball was thrown into the basket in a beautiful arc.

This time Du Kexin observed very carefully, and she even saw the confidence on the boy's face, and the smile on the corner of his mouth inexplicably......

"This is youth!"

An enthusiastic shout came from the boy's mouth, and he raised his arms high, his face still full of confidence.

At the same time, the audience erupted, and almost everyone stood up and applauded the boy.

“……”

“……”

“……”

Du Kexin froze, as if he had become a statue.

She watched the expression on the boy's face, listened to the cheers of the surrounding audience, and felt the excitement of the lost return.

The boy's voice, as if there was an invisible magic, kept echoing in her ears, that familiar and unfamiliar confidence and fullness......

For some reason, Du Kexin suddenly felt a touch in his heart.

I used to be young, I used to be me......

What the hell are you doing?
