009 I won't write

On the way to the conference room, he thought of an alternative script.

2020 is a year of vigorous development of online dramas, and many high-quality suspense dramas have emerged this year, from "Detective Chinatown" to "Decameron" to "Skyscraper", each work has its own merits.

But when it comes to high-scoring suspense dramas, the first thing he thinks of is the other two works.

These two works are adapted from the novels of the same author, one of them became popular and out of the circle, among which the "climbing terrier" and "opportunity terrier" were widely circulated, and the other exploded word-of-mouth, with more than 500,000 people scoring a high score of 9.2 on Douban.

Shen Yize finally chose "The Silent Truth".

Although this drama has a higher rating, it is far inferior to "The Hidden Corner" in terms of the degree of out-of-the-circle and the number of broadcasts. Use it to knock on the door of online dramas, which can not only accumulate word-of-mouth, but also warm up for the next work. Of course, the main reason is that the money given by Youshi is not enough, and Shen Yize is reluctant to enlarge it as soon as it comes up.

Give the other party a taste of sweetness first, and by the way, consolidate his position in the screenwriter circle, as long as he holds the script of the hit work, the initiative will always be in his hands.

Shen Yize methodically told the plot for everyone.

The play adopts a three-line narrative, with three timelines intertwined and interrelated but not chaotic.

Shen Yize just finished brushing it for the second time the day before the crossing, and the plot can be said to be vivid, and when the screenwriters poured bitter water just now, he combed it through his mind again, and he knew what to say.

The screenwriters of the suspense group didn't care at first, after all, Shen Yize is a well-known "story waste", give him an outline, he can write the story very beautifully, but let him conceive a story by himself, it's not good.

But soon, Shen Yize pulled everyone into his story, and with the addition of the Jiangyang Line and the Hou Guiping Line, an intricate character relationship diagram gradually unfolded in front of everyone's eyes.

Everything starts because of Jiangyang, and everything goes with Jiangyang.

When Shen Yize uncovered the mystery of Jiang Yang's death, the story ended, and everyone was still immersed in it, and the air was filled with a depressing, dull and bitter atmosphere.

"Smack, smack, smack......"

Gu Shu was the first to applaud, and soon, the conference room was filled with loud applause.

Levi stood up and became emotional: "Great! It's just amazing! This is the best script I've seen this year! Pass, pass! I'll give you a pass now! Little Brother Shen, this script has to give us Youshi no matter what! I can add another fifty thousand! ”

A group of suspense screenwriters led by Wang Yuan have almost a 180-degree reversal of their attitude towards Shen Yize, and they are also unstingy with praise, before it was more compliments than sincerity, but now it is more sincere than compliments.

Wang Yuan patted Shen Yize's shoulder heavily: "It's really yours!" You're prepared! ”

Zhang Chunlin looked admiring: "Senior! ”

As a suspense screenwriter, they understand the power of this script: full of suspense, brilliant characters, logical self-consistency, and profound content, it is hard to imagine that a script with only twelve episodes can do these four things at the same time!

This drama will explode!

This is the consensus of all present.

Gu Shu had hardly smiled since he entered the door, and at this time he showed a rare smile.

"Editor Shen, you plan to vote for this script, right?"

"That's right, Editor Gu."

Gu Shu said: "Since Mr. Li has agreed to buy it at a price of 200,000 yuan for a single episode, you don't need to write the outline, just write the script for the episode." ”

"Uh......"

"Any questions?"

Shen Yize hesitated, euphemism has never been his style, he decided to say it directly.

"Can I just come up with an outline and not write an episode script?"

Gu Shu was a little surprised: "You want to find someone to co-write with you?" ”

"Yes, I haven't written suspense, and I won't write about it."

Gu Shu raised his eyebrows, unable to believe his ears.

Did this person just say "can't write"?

It wasn't like what he would say.

She looked at the screenwriter of the suspense group: "Do you want to cooperate with Editor Shen?" ”

There was a sudden silence.

The screenwriters with a little bit of experience all looked away and avoided making eye contact with Gu Shu.

Co-writing scripts is not uncommon in the screenwriting industry, but it usually exists in the form of each being responsible for a plot, and it is relatively rare to see one creative and one writing force.

Since ancient times, literati have been contemptuous, and people who are willing to restrain their creative desires and devote themselves to writing other people's stories are really not easy to find in this industry.

What's more, the pay is not very good.

"Me!"

In the silence, someone suddenly raised his hand to make a statement.

It's Zhang Chunlin.

"Senior, I can assist you in your creation."

Shen Yize couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Zhang Chunlin is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate, the two have a close relationship, and they are alumni, and cooperating with him, at least there will be no psychological burden when making requests.

The two discussed, Shen Yize went back to write the outline of the episode, and sent it to him after writing, he wrote the script of the episode according to the outline, and the first draft had to be reviewed by Shen Yize first, and then reviewed by Wang Yuan, and finally approved by Gu Shu before it could become an official script.

Shen Yize proposed that the manuscript fee be split between the two of them, but Zhang Chunlin did not agree at first, he was just a screenwriter's assistant, and according to the rules, he should not take such a high share, but at Shen Yize's insistence, he still accepted it.

"Thank you, senior, for inviting you to dinner in the evening!"

Zhang Chunlin's excitement was beyond words, the manuscript fee of 2.4 million, excluding the part of the company, department and group, was close to 2 million, and the two of them split the account fifty-fifty, and then removed 30% of the tax, and got almost 700,000 yuan.

For the senior editor of Huaying, this manuscript fee is nothing, but for newcomers who have only been in the industry for one year, this is definitely a huge amount of money.

Shen Yize calculated the manuscript fee, and he was also taken aback.

As an eighteenth-tier singer who occasionally joins the crew to run tricks, he knows a little about the survival status of domestic screenwriters, not to mention 700,000 for a drama, and most screenwriters can't earn this number for three or five years.

The entertainment ecosystem in this world is far healthier than he imagined, and the screenwriter, as the foundation of a drama, not to mention his transcendent status, at least he will not be despised and treated cheaply.

Some gold medal screenwriters, such as Gu Shu, have no less say in the crew than the director, and what is even more exaggerated is that it is said that she also participated in the box office sharing in the last movie, which is completely unimaginable in Shen Yize's cognition.

"If this drama explodes, I will also talk about the next drama!"

Shen Yize is aware of the difference between the two worlds, here, as a screenwriter, especially a screenwriter who has made achievements, you don't have to be submissive when talking about price, you have to be tough when you should be tough!

This is true for screenwriters, and the same is true for songwriters.

The three songs sold to Eleven this time are regarded as paving the way. Use these three songs to prove his strength, and the next time he sells songs, he will have the capital to bargain.
