Chapter 248: The Human Heart (I)
Yang Fan originally thought that after returning home, he would be able to do the same as usual, and there would be no other trivial matters except for writing books with peace of mind.
But when a person has extraordinary abilities, as long as he wants to move on. Then responsibilities and trivial matters will always be with him.
Just like the classic line of a movie, the more capable a person is, the greater his responsibility.
Yang Fan, who returned home, hurriedly glanced at the points of the system and was rewarded with a useless card because he became a two-star writer after advancing to the competition, and he began to deal with the trivial matters around him.
The first thing he had to deal with was that, because he had won the competition, he was invited back to continue speaking as a successful alumnus in March. And the ambitious school sees the prospect of the online writing market, and also intends to open a new major for online writers to the Ministry of Education. As long as the application is successful, then Yang Fan will also make a guest appearance as a lecturer.
The school's speech invitation and online writer professional application are undoubtedly good news for Yang Fan today. After all, after the game, Yang Fan deeply understands that his biggest weakness is that he is too weak. If he wants to be an unprecedented super writer, he must have a certain background, and it is the kind of background that cannot be easily overturned. Undoubtedly, the school is the best candidate.
Although the school only came forward once in this game, it was because of the school's appearance that the top ten dolphin networks in the online literature industry took the initiative to apologize to him.
This made Yang Fan enthusiastically reply to the school's invitation, and at the same time, he also cleverly exchanged the agreed donation into a bank card, ready to go to the school tomorrow and hand it over to the principal.
After dealing with the school's affairs, Yang Fan rushed to log in to QQ, and according to the instructions of xx.com, he added the copyright owner who was about to buy his book for online drama shooting, but as time passed, the smile on Yang Fan's face gradually disappeared.
This is the first time that Yang Fan's work has been adapted, and it is also an online drama adaptation. He attached great importance to it, and he also deliberately consumed a large amount of points to exchange all the relevant knowledge for Lan.
However, the knowledge he prides himself on has become flawed as the chat progresses. The other party seems to be able to always find out the loopholes in his knowledge and guide them, so that Yang Fan keeps walking into the misunderstanding of thinking and knowledge, and also makes Yang Fan feel like a marionette being manipulated for the first time.
This kind of feeling of being manipulated by others made Yang Fan very uncomfortable, and he took the initiative to terminate the chat, and asked the address of the manager who wanted to buy the copyright, and made an appointment to meet today.
After seeing the manager's agreed-upon reply, Yang Fan closed the chat box. As he closed the chat box, he suddenly found himself so nervous that his back was wet.
Looking at Yang Fan's gaffe, Lan pulled Lin Wanting and asked the reason in a whisper.
Yang Fan didn't explain too much, he looked at the computer time, it was still early from the agreed time, he carefully opened the search website, and relied on his memory to query the content of the chat just now.
After the inquiry, Yang Fan's forehead also showed a thin layer of sweat, he stood up tremblingly, walked to the balcony and lit a cigarette, without saying a word.
He was thinking, thinking about the conversation he had just had.
Through inquiry, he found that there were no loopholes in the knowledge he had, but the people he talked to always created loopholes from strange angles and guided Yang Fan in. For Yang Fan, this feeling is a kind of unknown fear.
In fact, this fear of the unknown is very common, because every time a confident person is inexplicably defeated in the field of his self-confidence, there will be a fear of the unknown. Just like Yang Fan, an unpromising rookie writer, defeated Wang Jingya, who is known as the most vicious on the xx network, and gave Wang Jingya's fear as usual.
When Yang Fan was smoking in silence, there was also a man who was smoking in silence like Yang Fan.
His name is Li Tianlai, and he is the No. 1 negotiator for the top five large media companies in China. And that large media company is the copyright owner of Yang Fan's book.
At this time, Li Tianlai, like Yang Fan, smoked silently, as the company's "undefeated legend", he had negotiated with many people, and also met many types of excellent opponents. But no matter how good the opponent is, in the end, it will only become a stepping stone to his career.
He thought he would keep his undefeated saga by beating all his opponents, until he met an opponent today, giving him a sudden premonition that his undefeated saga could be ended today.
This strange premonition forced him to be vigilant, and he took a hard puff on his cigarette, remembering the events and opponents he was about to negotiate.
As one of the top five companies in the media industry, they are destined to cooperate with many online websites, especially in today's era of hot IP adaptation.
Among the online websites it cooperates with, there is a website called xx.com, which is a website of the sunset West Mountain. Although this website has just won the championship in what is known as the biggest new writer competition in the history of the online literature industry, it can't change the fact that he is sunset. Originally, the company wanted to end the cooperation with him, and just when it was about to end, xx.com took the initiative to find their company, and claimed to invest 200 million yuan to adapt the most popular book on their website.
In the eyes of this media company, this kind of largesse is undoubtedly the last struggle of xx.com, and they are afraid of taking the responsibility of causing xx.com to go out of business because of their failure to shoot online dramas. What's more, in their eyes, that book is far less valuable than the platinum writer IP of those big websites.
But because they were still cooperating, they could only agree on the surface, but they sent the company to negotiate with the first person to make it difficult for the writer who wanted to adapt it, so that he took the initiative to give up the online adaptation. Put all the responsibility on the writer, so that the company can kill two birds with one stone, not only to maintain its own reputation, but also to give face to the xx network that has been cooperating, and to have a good excuse when the contract is terminated.
As for the writer, although he won a competition, although he claimed to have the support of the university, the university did not canvass for him on the last day of the competition, which made the company management think that the writer was just a fox and a tiger, and he and the school were just out of tune. He is just an ordinary writer with weak strength, and he is also the best candidate to be a substitute for the dead.
Originally, Li Tianlai thought that this was a very simple matter, because the writer on the information was also a hairy boy in his early twenties with little experience.
However, through chatting, Li Tianlai found that things were not simple, this hairy boy in his early twenties had very professional knowledge, and he was also generous and decent. If it weren't for the sleek experience and understanding of the industry accumulated over the past 20 years, I would have lost a long time ago.
Although in the end, the writer named Yang Fan still fell into his own trap. However, he did not fall into his own trap completely, because he chose to talk face-to-face in the last step of the trap that he carefully designed at the end.
It was because of this just right renunciation and the writer's knowledge beyond ordinary people that Li Tianlai had a magical premonition that his undefeated myth was going to be ended.
Because, although the fear of the unknown is common, it is more deeply rooted in people's hearts than any fear!
