Chapter 205: A Good Abacus (Fourth Update)

In the morning, Jin Yong likes to drink another cup of coffee when he goes to the office.

Although he is rarely in charge of specific affairs, he is an indispensable figure in the entire "Ming Pao".

In the words of the people below, "Every day when we go to work, we know that Mr. Cha is coming, and we are more at ease."

He was drinking coffee and watering the flowers here, and the executive president, Shen Baoxing, walked in.

"Hey, why are you delivering me a newspaper today?" Kim Yong asked, "Is something wrong?"

Shen Baoxing nodded, and put today's issue of "Ming Pao" on the table, "Look at the entertainment version."

Jin Yong put down the kettle with one hand, put down the coffee cup with the other, picked it up and flipped it over, and saw that the entertainment version had published an apology statement with the entire half page.

"Mr. Cha: I'm very sorry for changing your work. But my movie will definitely be very popular. Sincerely."

Jin Yong smiled dumbly and raised the newspaper: "So you let him publish it under our noses for the sake of money?"

Shen Baoxing said: "Of course, he spent a full 200,000 yuan to apologize to you, what's so bad? …… I just received the news that because of this apology, they have printed 20,000 more newspapers today!"

Jin Yong sat down and muttered, "Don't you think he's actually provoking?"

"Yes."

Shen Baoxing also nodded: "But isn't this the effect we want? Once the script he changed is successful and the box office hits, Kim Yong will definitely attract more attention because of it."

After a pause, he said, "It's not that you don't know Li Lianjie's majesty in the Asian region now, it can be said that everyone knows it! If his new film becomes popular again, won't the long-delayed TV drama copyright negotiations in Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia be further promoted?"

"Uh-huh......

Kim Yong happily agreed, "It's good that you think so! But this kid published an apology statement in our "Ming Pao", and he didn't take me seriously, huh?"

Having said that, Kim Yong was actually laughing.

He's not an atmospheric person, but he's not so stingy.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to make more money, he wouldn't want to be like a junior.

"If you want to fight back, you can do that." Shen Baoxing said: "Why don't you also pay to publish the "Statement of Not Accepting Apology"?"

"Go!"

Jin Yong hurriedly shook his head, he was a stingy person, so he was reluctant to spend money in vain.

"But I can talk about him in another interview." Jin Yong said seriously, "You can't let this kid take advantage of you alone."

"You don't have to talk about him in interviews." Shen Baoxing said: "Wouldn't it be better for you to suggest that he come to Ming Pao for a visit, and you should stage a grudge and grudge?"

Jin Yong thought for a moment, and then asked him, "What is your purpose?"

Shen Baoxing spread his hands and said, "What purpose can I have? Hello, isn't it our "Ming Pao"? …… Okay, okay, I said."

Jin Yong withdrew his gaze from glaring at him, "We've known each other for decades, don't I know you yet?"

Shen Baoxing said: "You said that he is a genius, and he can write scripts, comics, and books...... Can't he write a martial arts book to see?"

Jin Yong's eyes lit up.

He finally understood what his old friend meant: "Do you want me to call him over and ask him to write a martial arts book and publish it in Ming Pao?"

"The smartest thing is to check the boss!" Shen Baoxing raised his thumb, "Please work hard, I have a hunch that he will definitely be able to do it!"

Jin Yong's jaw: "Well, it's been a long time since there have been newcomers in the martial arts rivers and lakes...... He's a dragon or a worm, let's see first!"

……

"Jingle Bell ......"

The phone on the desk rang.

Xuluo, who was immersed in writing, picked it up: "Hey?"

"Hello Void Friends

I'm Kim Yong."

A gentle old man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Kim Yong?

Xuluo was shocked, is this a killing?

"Hello Mr. Cha." The boy slowed down and said, "May I ask my apology statement, are you still satisfied?"

Jin Yong smiled: "I'm not very satisfied, so I want to invite you to come to the headquarters of Ming Pao, how about we have a cup of coffee and chat?"

Nothing to be courteous, either a woman is a thief.

The tone that was so impulsive at the beginning was now teased by me, but instead I was good-natured and called me over, there must be some deception in this.

Xuluo pondered, but didn't reply for a while.

Jin Yong's patience was good, so he took the phone and waited for Xuluo to answer.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey." Xuluo quickly made a decision, "When is Mr. Cha free?"

Kim Yong asked, "What do you think about this morning?"

The boy simply said, "I'll be here in half an hour."

"Okay, I'm waiting for you!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Luo was still thinking in his heart that if Jin Yong picked me up at the bottom of the Ming Pao building and made an appointment with a bunch of reporters, it would be troublesome.

But then I think about it, he is a successful martial arts master, so why can't he be so stingy?

What is his purpose in looking for me?

Ask me how is "Smiling Proud of the East Undefeated"?

Or is it just chatting?

No, no, no, it's unlikely that we'll chat, and I'm not familiar with him, and we're not the same era.

With this in mind, Xuluo, who got out of the taxi, came to Jin Yong's office under the guidance of a staff member.

Jin Yong's office is not large, about 30 square meters, in addition to a desk and a pair of sofas, there are several large bookcases, which causes the space inside to appear more cramped.

The corporate offices in Xiangjiang are generally very small.

In movies and TV series, they are usually just shown to the audience.

Just like TVB's TV series, ordinary people can live in a two-bedroom family of three, and a three-bedroom living room for a family of five or six is not to mention, the living room is very large.

But in fact, Wang Jing and Guan Zhilin told Xuluo that a normal family of three can buy a 500-square-foot house to live in, and they are already very happy.

If it is 800 square feet, it is definitely considered a middle class in Hong Kong.

A big mansion like 1,000 square feet can only be afforded by people with a net worth of more than 10 million.

Many really ordinary people, a family of three or five, can only live in a house of less than 300 square feet.

Oh, the square feet are the English used in Hong Kong. The unit of measurement is usually 100 square feet equal to about 9 square meters.

300 sq. ft. that's 27 square meters.

Many factories in Huaguo now also have this kind of dormitory of more than 20 square meters, but it is basically only a single dormitory, and then the toilet and cooking kitchen are outside, and the inside is only for rest.

Thinking that a family of three living in a house of more than 20 square meters, and having to have a bathroom, kitchen, etc., Xu Luo shuddered a little.

Behind the prosperity of Xiangjiang, there are many low-level civilians who are sad and struggling!

……

After his thoughts swept over, and after the staff closed the door and went out, Jin Yong walked out from the desk, stretched out his hand and said, "Xu Xiaoyou, your name is like thunder to me, I finally met the real person today, and sure enough, the rumors are true, you can play Yang!"

Xuluo hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook it with him: "Mr. Cha, you are the elder I respect, you can write so many masterpieces, you already represent our Chinese martial arts culture!"

After a pause, Xuluo couldn't help but say, "Am I the Yang Guo who has a sachet under his arm?"

Jin Yong was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

Among all of Jin Yong's, the most handsome is actually not Duan Yu Duan Xiaowangye, but Yang Guo.

It's just that the "Withered Heroes" I see now,

It's already a version that has been modified several times.

The original Yang Guo, with a sachet under his armpit, can be called a woman's ultimate nemesis, and no woman can resist it at all.

Li Mochou, a cynical woman, was hugged by Yang Guo like this, and the fragrance was smoked, and it softened directly.

Therefore, there is a reason for Guo Xiang's "first meeting at Fengling Ferry, and Yang was wrong for life at first sight", and it is not as simple as her being a nymphomaniac and falling in love at first sight.

But in the later version, Jin Yong obviously felt that he had created a monster, so he simply changed it.

But many women's obsessive attitude towards Yang Guo, but he can't change it all, because the project is too big.

So when some readers read "The Withered Heroes", they feel that many girls like Yang Guo and like it inexplicably, that's the reason.

Jin Yong heard Xuluo mention this link, of course he had to laugh.

Because it's a loyal reader.

But he wondered, "How many editions of my book can be seen in the mainland? Steal. Can the version do that well?"

At this time, Jin Yong's book was not authorized in the mainland, so he knew that what Xuluo was reading should be a thief. Edition.

He was helpless about this, but he couldn't get angry.

Because he can't take care of it.

"Thief. How much can the version manage? Anyway, I started watching it in the 80s." Xuluo explained: "But Mr. Cha, don't worry, I have already bought ten sets of complete works of Jin Yong when I came to Xiangjiang this time, and I have already mailed them back, ready to give them to relatives and friends."

This one is true.

Xuluo bought a lot of things one after another on this trip, and asked Guan Zhilin to take them to the book market, bought a lot of books, and packed them back in one go.

Although the shipping fee is more expensive than the cost of books, these are not available in the mainland, so I just showed them to my father and his friends.

Jin Yong was very satisfied when he heard this: "Thank you for your kindness! But what I'm looking forward to more is when the mainland will be able to shoot a version of mine! With the scenery, talent and dedication of the mainland, it must be very good!"

Xu Luo was stunned for a moment, and asked casually, "Mr. Cha, how much adaptation fee do you want?" I'll buy them all."

Kim Yong is very good at business.

He only sells the copyright once.

For example, if you spend 100,000 yuan today to buy the movie copyright of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", then after you make a movie, it will become invalid, and you can't continue to shoot, and you have to continue to buy it if you continue to shoot.

So over the years, Xiangjiang and Baodao have adapted him into movies and TV series at least hundreds of times, and he has made a lot of money.

It is no exaggeration to say that with these copyright auctions alone, he and his children and grandchildren can live happily for decades without worrying about bankruptcy or anything.
