032 Is it worth it?

Film and television rights?

The first thought that came to Chen Fan's mind was, the editor won't be stolen, right?

Although as an online author, his biggest dream is that his works can be adapted into film and television works. But he knew very well that with the results of that novel, no one would buy his copyright.

Soon, the editor sent another message, "With the results of your book, the copyright can be sold, which is similar to winning the lottery." Sell it and you earn it, don't hesitate. ”

Chen Fan immediately replied, "Sell, of course sell." ”

The editor replied, "Okay, I'll get a message back to the Copyright Department now." ”

Chen Fan felt that it was not very real and asked, "How did you sell the copyright of my book?" ”

"It stands to reason that those who can sell film and television copyrights are all Huoshu, which has very good results and is well-known. If you have a poor grade, you can't sell it at all. It's also possible that the buyer thinks your book is suitable for adaptation, and you're in luck. This year, the IP popularity is not so high, and the copyright department will agree to this offer. ”

"Thank you."

Chen Fan didn't expect that he would also have a day when he was hit in the head by a pie.

300,000, that's a windfall. After deducting taxes, there are more than 200,000. In this case, the money for the medicinal herbs will be available.

When he was in the dungeon world, Zhao Gang said that his strength was almost exhausted, and he could start the cultivation of internal strength.

He had already mastered the method of breathing and breathing, and he also knew the prescription supplemented by practice, so he had to pay for the medicine.

Chen Fan checked on the Internet, and the medicinal materials on the prescription were not particularly expensive, and there were two kinds that could not even be called medicinal materials. However, if you want to eat it for a long time, his little savings will definitely not be enough.

He was having a headache about how to make some money, and he smashed 300,000 yuan.

In fact, he doesn't know whether he can train his internal strength in the real world, but he always has to try.

Just use these 300,000 to try it, if it doesn't work, forget it. If you can really practice it, it will be worth it.

Of course, the money didn't arrive so quickly, and it still had to go through the process.

…………

This time, the efficiency of the website was very fast, and within a few days, a special editor asked Chen Fan to sign the transfer agreement for the film and television adaptation rights, print and sign, and send it by express.

On the day the agreement was sent to the website, the editor contacted him again, "It said that the adaptation of the script needs your opinion, I gave them your phone number, and it is estimated that I will contact you soon." ”

Chen Fan was a little surprised, originally thought that if the copyright was sold, there would be nothing to do with him. Under normal circumstances, after the film and television company buys the copyright, it is handed over to a special screenwriter, how to change it, as for the opinion of the original author, who cares about you?

"No problem."

However, since the other party proposed it, there is also such a clause in the contract, and Chen Fan has no opinion.

In the afternoon of the same day, a strange phone call came, from Peng City next door, still a woman, listening to the voice of the young age, claiming to be surnamed Zhou, who was the person in charge of the company that bought the film and television adaptation rights of his novel.

In the face of the gold owner, Chen Fan was still very polite.

After chatting on the phone for a while, Mr. Zhou asked him to meet this weekend.

On Sunday, Chen Fan met Mr. Zhou in a café in the city, a very fashionably dressed working woman, who was also very beautiful, giving people a shrewd and capable feeling, this aura was much stronger than those leaders in his company.

"Hello, my name is Zhou Manxin, and this is my business card."

"My name is Chen Fan, and my pen name is so big in the world."

After the two sat down, Zhou Manxin directly said what he meant, "I asked you to meet this time for the script." I want to hire you to write this script. ”

"Huh?"

Chen Fan was taken aback and said, "However, I have never written a script, and I don't know how to write it." ”

Zhou Manxin said, "It's okay, I'll send a screenwriter from the company to assist you." She's in charge of writing, and it's up to you to decide the plot. ”

"This ......"

Chen Fan never thought that she would make such a request, and at the same time she was a little puzzled, "Take the liberty of asking, why did you ask me to write the script?" I'm a complete layman in this area. ”

Zhou Manxin picked up the coffee, stirred it slowly, and said, "I bought your work because I was moved by the story inside. I want to shoot it. I spent another sum of money to find a screenwriter and change the story beyond recognition. So why should I buy the copyright? ”

"I don't think anyone knows better than you, the original author, how to preserve the essence of the original. In recent years, there have been many adaptations of online novels, and those that respect the original work are often well shot. As for the works of screenwriters who think they know more about the original than the author, most of them are rotten out of a certain realm. So, I choose to believe in you. ”

Chen Fan was a little enthusiastic when she turned over the words.

"You can think about it, it's a commission contract. But there is one rule, if you sign it, you have to quit your current job, concentrate on creating, and give me an answer within three days. After Zhou Manxin finished speaking, he left.

Chen Fan sat alone in the café, flipped through the contract, and read it page by page.

The remuneration for this script is 100,000, and he is a newcomer who doesn't understand screenwriting at all, which is already quite a lot. There are also many clauses in it, which look good.

"This is also Party B, if the owner is not satisfied, he has to keep changing."

Chen Fan thought so, but he had already made a decision in his heart.

This job, he didn't want to do for a long time. Especially after returning from the dungeon world, I have already made up my mind to find an opportunity to resign. When he learned that the copyright had been sold, he thought that when the money arrived, he would hand over his resignation letter.

Now, with such an opportunity, he has nothing to hesitate about.

The most important thing is that after coming out to work, this is the first time he has been valued by others, and he has heard others say that only you can do this well. My heart is really warm, and there is an indescribable momentum. You have to do it well.

…………

On the other side, after Zhou Manxin left the café, he glanced at Chen Fan, who was sitting inside and reading the contract, showed a smile, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed a number, "Xiaowan, the matter is done, how can you thank me?" ”

"Sent me away in one meal?"

"That's pretty much it."

"What is your relationship with this author, why are you so concerned about him?"

"I see that you don't just like this novel. You have to stick a lot of favors into this wave, and you have to take risks yourself, is it worth it? ”

"Forget it, I don't advise you, you always have your own ideas."

"I'll do it, don't worry. I didn't mention you. ”

"Okay, I'll see you later."

After hanging up the phone, she said to herself, "I want to see what kind of bad relationship you two have." ”
