Chapter 53: Side Professions
"Clumsy and extraordinary: huh?"
It's not that Ji Zhuo looks down on his books, and the copyright of the book ordered by 4,000 is about to be sold?
Oh...... Now it seems that all seven or eight thousand are booked.
After the last "Revival Cthulhu" became popular, naturally some readers went to look for his previous works.
There are also some who originally clicked in to see another book by the author, but they ended up entering the author's homepage at one point, and there were also those who were more interested in reading another book and went to read another book.
But even if seven or eight thousand are ordered, the copyright will be sold.
It doesn't make sense.
After all, the subject matter he wrote is not suitable for film and television adaptation.
It stands to reason that the possibility of selling the film and television rights of "Revival Cthulhu" is greater than that of "Mortal Immortals".
But I haven't heard any news that the copyright of "Revitalized Cthulhu" is going to be sold.
On the contrary, it is "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", two companies want to buy it, is this reasonable?
"Clumsy and extraordinary: just buy the copyright of "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals"? How much can the copyright of "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" be sold for? ”
"Editor: Actually, "Revive Cthulhu" also had a company inquiry before, but the bid was too low and was rejected. There are fewer companies that want to buy "Revival Cthulhu" in the future, and more people ask about "Mortal Immortals".
Edit: It may be that everyone knows that the copyright of "Revitsive Cthulhu" has a relatively high value.
Clumsy and extraordinary: Want to pick up the slack? ”
Ji Zhuo understood, didn't he just watch "Resuscitation Cthulhu" and get a good score, maybe now the results of this work are also starting to explode,
I want to take a gamble to see if the influence of this author can rise, and it will be better to bring the previous "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" to a better result.
So that you can buy the copyright of this book first, and make a profit at that time?
This kind of thing is actually very common.
"Edit: That's pretty much what it means.
Edit: Both are film and television production companies. One bid of 1 million and the other bid of 1.2 million, both of which wanted to buy the full copyright of the audio adaptation of film and television animation except for traditional and simplified Chinese publishing. ”
"Clumsy and extraordinary: so tall?"
It's not that Ji Zhuo looks down on his works, but the copyright price of the current performance of "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is actually very high.
In order to achieve a higher copyright price of millions or even tens of millions,
The first is to be able to bear its own achievements, and the second is that it has been baptized and disseminated for a long period of time, not to mention whether so many people have seen it, at least the popularity and reputation are very high.
And Ji Zhuo's "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is actually unable to reach these two aspects at present.
The results themselves are only seven or eight thousand, and the highest subscription for a single chapter is less than 20,000, plus third-party and pirated copies, even if you know this book, it may only be hundreds of thousands at present.
The second is that the book has been completed for less than a year.
The only one that has an advantage,
It's that he, the author, has achieved good results in the next two books, and with "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" after the completion of the book, there is a very good upward trend.
"Edit: Don't think too much of yourself. After the completion of the book "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", the growth trend of various data is still very fast. If this growth trend is maintained, it may not be long before they buy at this price.
Edit: There are reasons for the results of your next two books, as well as the quality of the book itself. They just want to gamble on your future.
Clumsy and Extraordinary: Hmm. ”
Ji Zhuo looked at the message sent by the editor and didn't say anything more.
In fact, he doesn't need to worry about the sale of copyrights.
Naturally, there are people from the legal department who have read novels to take care of it, and professional matters are handled by professionals.
Anyway, the first reading novel itself also gets a share, and it is impossible for the first reading network to make less money on its own.
However, just as Ji Zhuo was about to end the topic with the editor,
When I was about to start today's codeword, the editor sent another message.
"Editor: Actually, I told you about this in advance to ask for your opinion.
Edit: The bids of these two companies are close, and if you talk about it, the final price should be about the same, so I would like to consider your opinion as the original author to see which company to sell the copyright to. ”
Well?
Give me face like this, and consider my opinions?
Ji Zhuo paused,
Haven't replied yet,
The messages sent by the editor have not stopped,
Editor: One of these two companies is called Sunshine Media Film and Television Production, and the other is Pioneer Media Film and Television. The first round of offers for the front one is 1.2 million, and the one behind is 1 million.
Editor: The news from the legal department is that in the end, it is estimated that there will not be much difference between the bids of these two companies.
Editor: The big difference between the two companies is only that Sunshine Media Film and Television Production may just make an investment, buy the copyright in your hands, and sell it when it appreciates.
Editor: Pioneer Media proposed that it would use "Mortal Immortals" to set up an anime adaptation project, and would adapt "Mortal Immortals" into an anime in the near future, which can be written into the agreement. ”
When Ji Zhuo looked at the message sent by the editor, he was a little helpless,
What else is there to choose from?
Well?
Ji Zhuo thought about it and paused again, only to poke his phone a few more times, and replied to the editor with a message.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: that must be Pioneer Media.
Clumsy and extraordinary: But do they have any strings attached?
Editor: Well, the opinion of the website is also that I recommend choosing Pioneer Media. Even if the copyright price is a little lower, a successful copyright adaptation of the work can attract you to a lot of new readers, and it will also help you sell the rights to other novels in the future.
Edit: Yes, there are strings attached. They want you to be the screenwriter of the anime adaptation.
Clumsy and Extraordinary: ???
Clumsy and extraordinary: I can't write a screenplay, do I? ”
Ji Zhuo looked at the message sent by the editor, full of question marks.
There are interlaced like mountains, he has never been in contact with script writing before,
Although they are both story writing, there is still a big difference.
Although it sounds like letting the original author continue to adapt the script can maintain the style and plot advantages of the original work,
At least you don't have to worry about being freely created by a screenwriter who hasn't even read the novel.
But only if this author can write the script.
Otherwise, it may be better to let the film and television director or animation director shoot directly against the original book.
"Edit: They said they could ask someone to teach you.
Clumsy and extraordinary: I live pretty well in the place where I live now......
Edit: They said it could be done online......
Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......"
Hearing this,
The first thing that comes to mind is trouble,
I don't want to touch something I haven't touched before.
As for the advantages of film and television adaptation, they are all worn out under this troublesome feeling,
The scales in his heart were tilting.
But at this time,
"Ding!"
The system, which had not made a sound for a long time, made a prompt sound at this time.
Ji Zhuo subconsciously turned his gaze and glanced at the prompt of the system interface,
Immediately after, the eyes lit up.
The idea is a direct 180-degree turn.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: Okay. Yes. ”
……
Shiyue.com Headquarters Building,
In the editorial department, pen and ink sat at the desk, facing the computer,
I'm talking to Ji Zhuo about the sale of copyrights,
Looking at Ji Zhuo's originally hesitant and hesitant appearance, he had already knocked on the keyboard to throw out all the conditions given by Pioneer Media.
As a result, Ji Zhuo suddenly agreed,
This makes the pen and ink feel a little uncomfortable, like something choked in the throat,
If it has been typed out in the input box, it is not good to send it out, and it is not good to send it out.
It's awkward, it's changed, and it's still sent out.
"Edit: Hmm...... In addition, they say, if you are willing to work as a screenwriter, the rights can be traded in another way. Invest your screenwriter's remuneration and the value of the copyright itself to participate in this anime adaptation project, and enjoy a certain percentage of the entire project.
Editor: On this side of the website, it is recommended that you get a fixed copyright income and screenwriter's remuneration. Although the sharing sounds good, the first sharing ratio is definitely not too high, and secondly, the income of the animation project itself is limited.
Clumsy and Extraordinary: Hmm...... Then divide it.
Edit:......
Edit: Okay, the website will try to help you get a higher share ratio. ”
Editorial office, sitting in front of the computer,
The pen and ink rubbed his temples,
It's nothing, I just feel a little tired.
Every time I chat with this author under my hands, I feel tired,
It just feels ...... Every sentence was unexpected.
And then in hindsight, it was exactly what I expected from this author...... That is, it is not expected at all.
"Clumsy and extraordinary: then the editor is busy, I won't bother."
And this side,
Ji Zhuo glanced at the new changes on the system interface again,
I really didn't want to say more to the editor, so I closed the chat interface with a single sentence.
"Edit: line...... You code the word first. ”
What else can I say with pen and ink, I can only reply like this.
……
Den.
Outside the window, the green branches and leaves in the community gently collide in the breeze, rustling.
Ji Zhuo sat in front of the desk, and the phone had been temporarily thrown aside.
Facing the system interface in front of him, his face was slightly excited.
"Ding."
"Subclass trigger."
"Subclass: Screenwriter trigger, is it added to the subclass template?"
This is the system prompt triggered by Ji Zhuo when communicating with the editor before,
On the system interface, the sub-class that has been moving all this time has finally moved!
"Confirm the addition."
After confirming the addition, there are some changes in the system panel.
Showing what Ji Zhuo sees now.
"Host: Ji Zhuo.
Main occupation: Writer.
Main Class Level: Level 2 (1/2)
Subclass: Screenwriter (Level 1) (0/1)
Subclass: Not yet available.
Class Attributes:
Writing: 7
Plot: 7
Speed: 9
Inspiration: 7
Script: 3
No free attribute points assigned: 0
Task requirements for this issue: According to the current professional level of the main writer and the completion of the creation of novels by the host, the requirements are: to create a novel with an average score of more than 3000 to 5000 or equivalent significance. The number of words in the completed book should not be less than 300,000 to 600,000 words.
Note: The specific requirements for the number of words in the book are determined according to the type and subject matter of the new book released by the host.
Rewards: Inspiration +1, Writing +1, Story +1, Speed +1, Free Attribute Points +4
If the host does not achieve the relevant results after the release of the new book, he will receive an incentive bonus every month to encourage the host to continue to grow on the creative path.
Incentive bonuses are awarded according to the writer's rank.
The current incentive is 1 million yuan/month.
Sub-occupation: Screenwriter's task requirements in this period: According to the current professional level, the requirements are to create or adapt a film and television animation and other scripts. The total number of moviegoers of the film, television or anime corresponding to the script exceeds 200,000 to 1 million in a certain period of time. For the film and television projects corresponding to the script, the total duration of the film shall not be less than 60 to 90 minutes, the total number of TV series episodes shall not be less than 12 episodes, and the animation shall not be less than 8 to 12 episodes. The positive rating shall not be less than 80%.
Note: A certain time is during the period when the movie is released in theaters and before the premiere of the TV series is completed. The animation is within one week after the end of the update. (Online screenings of movies and TV series are the same as animations.) )
Note: The total number of viewers and the specific requirements for the length of the script are determined according to the theme and type of the host's new script. (The number of viewers is calculated by the audience to watch 80% of the corresponding film and television content.) Viewers who have not watched more than 80% of the content will not be counted. )
Rewards: +2 for scripts, +2 for free stat points.
If the script created by the host does not meet the relevant performance requirements, an incentive bonus will be issued at the end of the current period to encourage the host to continue to create excellent plays.
Incentive bonuses for sub-occupations are paid according to the level of sub-occupations.
The current sub-occupation incentive is: 10% of the actual investment amount of the film and television animation project.
(Sub-occupation: The screenwriting cycle starts with the beginning of the release of the film and television animation corresponding to the script, and ends with the arrival of a certain period of time)"
Ji Zhuo looked at the changes in the system interface,
Slightly excited.
On the system interface,
The sub-occupation column is finally not blank,
There is an additional profession of editor, and at the same time, there is a direct addition of the attribute of 'script'.
It's about his playwriting ability.
It's only three o'clock,
It's worse than the five scum of his other attributes before,
In addition, look at the system interface, there is another sub-class that has not yet been opened,
It seems that he can continue to open a new side class?
I don't know what's next.
At last
It is also the biggest change in the system this time.
Because of the emergence of the sub-profession 'screenwriter',
The system also adds tasks for each issue of the 'Screenwriter' class.
It's pretty much the same as the main class.
When you meet the requirements of the task, you can get attribute points.
If you fail to meet the task requirements, you can also get incentives.
However, the incentive money for the 'sub-career' task is not monthly.
Instead, after the end of the current period, the total investment of the impact project corresponding to the script will be used.
Ten percent?
If the total investment is tens of millions, if you can't meet the requirements of the task in the first period, won't you be able to send millions to yourself......
Well...... How does it feel like there isn't much?
How do you feel like I'm a little inflated?
It's probably a million main career encouragement money every month before the system.,This is almost meaningless when it's issued one by one.。
But it's a lot......
There are several screenwriters who can earn millions for a film and television project.
This is also the reason why Ji Zhuo told the editor before that he wanted to share.
Thinking of it this way,
If he meets the task requirements of the system, it proves that the film or animation corresponding to his creation of this script is popular.
He takes a cut, and that will definitely make more money.
And if this movie and TV series, or anime pounced,
Although he can't get a share of how much money he has,
But is there still an incentive fund of 10% of the total investment amount of the system?
Don't lose horizontally or vertically!
What is it called!
This is risk hedging.
It's a win-win!
Win both sides and pros!
Although film and television animation or something, it's not exactly his business,
He can't do it at the expense of others for his own gains,
So he definitely won't make any moths in the script,
But a movie, a TV series, the script is only a small part.
That can't stop the other links from pulling across.
Then won't he get the money for the encouragement system?
Ji Zhuo thought,
Slightly excited.
But
The requirements of this profession are obviously much more complicated.
The production cycle of a film and animation is also long,
This also means that Ji Zhuo's sub-professional screenwriter's task cycle will also take a long time to end and open one by one.
It's definitely not as good as writing a novel, in every way.
said that this time it was because the copyright of his novel was sold, and others wanted him, the original author, to be a screenwriter.
After this time, he didn't know where to find the next opportunity to be a screenwriter in film and television anime.
After all, scripts can be said to be everywhere, what is he looking for as an online writer with only 3 points of script attributes, and a part-time screenwriter.
Ji Zhuo shook his head,
I glanced at the system interface again.
I saw that the screenwriting task on the system was still calculated according to the total number of moviegoers.
He still thought in his mind that he would directly get a drama to be broadcast for free, but he was afraid that it would not be enough for the total number of viewers, so he would directly brush up on attribute points.
But the dog system really doesn't leave him a single loophole.
The duration of the corresponding film and television was requested, and 80% praise was also required.
What does this mean is that it definitely takes a lot of investment to shoot it.
If someone else invests in it, it is impossible for someone else to take it out for the audience within the system cycle.
If Ji Zhuo invests by himself, it will be fine.
But now he only has two million in his pocket, and he can't shoot it himself, so he asked someone to ask the crew to invest in filming his script.
…… Never mind.
Let's wait until he buys a villa and looks for four maids.
Shaking his head,
Ji Zhuo looked at the system again,
Just shut down the system.
The task of sub-professional screenwriters has not been settled at all,
For now, let's continue to write novels.
"Keep pounced!"
Click on the codeword software and clean up your mood.
Ji Zhuo put other things aside for the time being and continued to start coding.
