Chapter 306: Three hundred and eighty yuan in one episode!
Kang Xin just wanted to say something, but at this moment, there was a knock at the door again.
Hearing this knock on the door, the three of them immediately looked towards the door.
They found out that the person who came turned out to be the editor-in-chief of "Contemporary" literature.
"Lao Wang, Lao Kang...... Hey! Isn't this He Yun? Why are you here? Seeing that He Yun was also in the office, Editor-in-Chief He was obviously taken aback.
And when he walked in front of the three of them, he deliberately looked at He Yun, and when He Yun saw this, he immediately explained to him the purpose of his visit to Kyoto this time.
"You mean you joined Wang Su's creative team?"
At this moment, Editor-in-Chief He looked at He Yun in disbelief.
In fact, he happened to know about Wang Su's creation of the creative team, but he didn't expect He Yun to be pulled in by him.
"Hmm...... This matter was recommended by Editor-in-Chief Wang. He Yun nodded at Editor-in-Chief He, then looked at Wang Meng who was standing on the side with a smile and said.
"Oh...... Is it? Lao Wang, how did you recommend him to Wang Su? For He Yun's answer, Editor-in-Chief He couldn't help but let out an "oh", and turned his gaze to Wang Meng.
"It's okay, Lao He, haven't you seen Xiaohe's script creation ability? Is he more than capable of joining them? ”
"Besides, these people are all from the big courtyard, so I'm also giving Xiaohe some opportunities to create and get to know more people? This is good for Koga's future. ”
Wang Meng's words made Kang Xin on the side also nodded: "Lao Wang is right, now is different from the past, and there are many changes in the current writers' circle, so it is good for Xiaohe to have more contact with this Beijing circle." ”
Kang Xin also knows something about the so-called Beijing circle, and he naturally understands what this "Beijing circle" represents.
He Yun is the young writer of Hunan nationality that he values the most, and he naturally hopes that He Yun can go further.
"That's right, it doesn't hurt to get to know more people." Editor-in-Chief He thought about it and then said.
Then, he turned his head and looked at He Yun again: "Xiao He, you just said that you have to go to the Kyoto TV Drama Creation Center tomorrow?" ”
"Hmmm! I promised their Director Zheng that I was going to discuss the adaptation of my work "Love in Lakes and Mountains" tomorrow. He Yun hummed and replied.
"They want you to be a screenwriter?" At this time, Wang Meng looked at He Yun and asked.
"That Director Zheng does mean this, but I haven't officially agreed to them yet." He Yun nodded, then shook his head again.
"Xiaohe, I think you can give it a try." At this time, Kang Xin hesitated for a moment and opened his mouth to suggest.
"I agree with Lao Kang's opinion, with your script creation ability, there should be no problem, and besides, you are still the author of the original book, so there is no problem."
Wang Meng's words were quickly echoed by Editor-in-Chief He.
"I also agree with Lao Wang's opinion, Xiaohe, if you have time, you can indeed give it a try."
Regarding the opinions of the three people in front of him, He Yun couldn't help but respond: "Actually, I also intend to take over the role of screenwriter, but let's talk to Director Zheng tomorrow." ”
…………
In the following time, He Yun chatted with the three of them for more than an hour before leaving the magazine.
The next day, the wind was mild, and the temperature suddenly rose by more than ten degrees.
He Yun took off the sweater he was wearing again, and came to the Kyoto TV Drama Creation Center with only a coat.
"Welcome! Welcome! Comrade He Yun, sit down, sit down! I'll make you tea! After Zheng Xiaolong shook hands with He Yun, he immediately beckoned He Yun to sit down.
Then, I saw him turn around and go to make tea for He Yun.
After a while, he walked up to He Yun with a cup of hot tea and said, "Comrade He Yun, come!" Drink a cup of hot tea. ”
"Thank you, Director Zheng!" After He Yun took the hot tea handed by Zheng Xiaolong, he immediately said thank you.
At this time, Zheng Xiaolong also sat back in his seat.
He picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, looked up at He Yun and said: "Comrade He Yun, regarding you being the screenwriter of "Love in Lakes and Mountains", our team members have had several meetings before, and finally, our Director Lu, I suggest that you, the original author, be the screenwriter of our TV series, do you have any ideas yourself?" ”
"Director Zheng, in fact, I am very happy to be the screenwriter of this TV series." He Yun didn't beat around the bush, he directly expressed his attitude to Zheng Xiaolong.
"Oh...... Don't you think about it? You have to know that once you agree, you have to sign a contract, and you can't go back on it. Seeing that He Yun agreed so quickly, Zheng Xiaolong couldn't help but be stunned, he looked at He Yun and said again.
"Director Zheng, I know that I am confident that I can be competent for the work of screenwriter." He Yun said solemnly.
"Okay! Since you agreed to be the screenwriter of this drama, let's talk about the specific details of cooperation, the filming of our drama will start from February to March next year, so you only have three months to polish the script, can you do it? ”
"Three months? This ......"
Hearing Zheng Xiaolong's words, He Yun was also a little stunned.
Three months seems like a long time, but to write a script, and it has to be carefully polished, and the time may not be enough.
Besides, this script still has to be reviewed before it can be used, which is even more insufficient.
"Done! Three months is three months! However, Director Zheng, there are some things I have to explain to you in advance, I won't finish the script writing in Kyoto, and that's fine, right? Although there was not enough time, He Yun still agreed.
"I understand what you mean, I understand your situation, but after the script is written, you have to come to us again for an on-site review, you should have no problem, right?"
"Yes, Director Zheng, I don't have any problems at all." He Yun did not refuse, after all, this request was reasonable.
"Good! So let's talk about your fees, do you have any ideas for yourself? Zheng Xiaolong nodded and looked at He Yun again.
"This ...... How about three hundred and one episodes? He Yun hesitated for a moment and said.
"Three hundred and one episodes? This TV series can only have a maximum of twenty-five episodes, which is seven thousand five hundred yuan? Well...... It's too little, I'll give you three hundred episodes! Zheng Xiaolong smiled and said.
"Three hundred and eighty dollars?"
"Good! Three hundred and eighty is three hundred and eighty! ”
In fact, regarding the issue of screenwriter fees, He Yun had asked Wang Su for advice before.
Three hundred episodes is actually not low.
It can even be said to be a relatively high grade.
"By the way, one more thing, I want to ask for your opinion, do you have any thoughts on casting?" At this time, Zheng Xiaolong suddenly smiled, looked at He Yun and asked.
"Casting? Director Zheng, isn't this the director's responsibility? He Yun couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately puzzled.
"No, no, no...... As the screenwriter of this show, and you are the author of the original book, no one can know the characters in the play better than you, so I naturally have to listen to your thoughts. ”
Zheng Xiaolong waved his hand, but replied.
"This ...... Director Zheng, I can't do anything, I can only tell you this now, I have to finish the first draft of the script before I can reply to you. He Yun thought for a moment, then shook his head and said.
"A draft of the script? When will you be able to finish? Why can't it be three months from now? Zheng Xiaolong said.
"A month, a month later, I will be able to finish the first draft of the script, and then I will bring the script to Kyoto to show Director Zheng, and after reading the script, I will reply to some of your requests for casting." He Yun stretched out a finger and said.
"Good! I'll be waiting for you in Kyoto for a month. Zheng Xiaolong smiled and readily agreed to He Yun.
…………
Half an hour later, He Yun walked out of Zheng Xiaolong's office.
When he returned to the guest house, he immediately packed his belongings and left the room.
However, instead of going to the airport, he came to the film studio with his luggage.
Since the release of "Fanghua", the box office has soared, although He Yun did not get specific data, but he learned from the editor-in-chief He that because of the release of the movie of the same name, even with his two novels, there has been a huge increase in sales.
Together, the two works increased sales by 400,000 copies.
And as the movie continues to be released, the growth rate of book sales has not declined, and has been steadily rising.
