Boss Wei, who returned to the magic capital, the promotion of "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" has not started for the time being, and then he has dealt with some work.

One of them is the copyright issue of "Ruyi's Biography" reported by Orange Shell.

This one has been grinding for a few months.

When "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was on fire, the author Liuyu Zi struck while the iron was hot and made a "Harem: The Legend of Ruyi".

In order to be able to hold the copyright, she didn't even serialize it on the website, but chose to publish it physically, so she was targeted by Boss Wei.

At that time, although "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was popular, it had not yet reached the point of becoming a god.

"Harem: The Legend of Ruyi" is a new book that has just been released, plus Boss Wei was also a little expert in online adaptation at that time, and the price was the highest market price at that time, so it was easy to win the copyright.

Then, the film and television version of "Harem: The Legend of Ruyi" has not moved.

Although Liuyu Zi felt a pity, she was not too uncomfortable, after all, the current network IP is on fire, and there are too many hoarded online articles and copyrights.

But Boss Wei didn't shoot, and he couldn't stand the greed of someone watching "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and kept staring at this project.

There are still a lot of people, including Fan Xiaopang before, who has ideas, but the most positive is Xinli.

They directly found Liuyu Zi and asked her to be the screenwriter herself, and she got the script of "The Legend of Ruyi".

But the script came out, but the copyright is still in Orange Shell Culture Company under Wei Yang's name.

Whether you can shoot or not, Boss Wei nodded and paid a lot of copyright transfer fees.

This money can't be saved, even if you change your name and surname, turn "The Legend of Ruyi" into "The Legend of Qingying", or sell dog meat on a sheep's head, and move the background of the story to the Ming Dynasty to rewrite a script.

This simply improperly takes copyright law seriously, and it is accurate to sue one by one.

And even if you play smartly and succeed in rubbing the edges, this trick can at most bully and bully small companies or outsiders, and finally lose some money and pull it down.

provoked a media boss like Wei Yang, he was blind, and if he didn't kill this drama, Boss Wei would be confused in the future.

So Xinli won't do such stupid things, they want to do it, and other authors don't need to take risks with you.

Unless you spend a lot of money, you might as well buy the copyright directly.

The most important thing is that Wei Yang did not mean to hold on to "The Legend of Ruyi", and the main reason for his failure was that the conditions could not be negotiated.

This is actually a situation that Xinli is very happy about, what he is most afraid of is that Wei Yang wants to shoot "The Legend of Ruyi", there is no way at all, but Wei Yang is willing to sell, then it is simple, everyone will slowly bargain.

Wei Yang didn't know the specific situation, and a project of this level was not enough for him to ask about the details.

Orange Shell asked him for advice, Wei Yang felt that it could be sold, but this project had a head, and he could find a way to get more oil and water, and the rest was Orange Shell's own play.

Until today, Orange Shell thought that it was good to win this condition, so he came to report to Boss Wei.

Wei Yang agreed, and it was implemented.

Wei Yang disagreed, so he continued to talk, or simply pulled down.

Then Boss Wei learned that the orange shell had forced Xinli enough to choke on it, and there was a wave of blood.

It not only issued the highest copyright transfer fee in the industry, but also gave Blue Whale 15~20% of the investment share.

PPTV can even be considered as one of the broadcast platforms, which is also the key to the main negotiations between the two sides.

Xinli is not short of money, this project has at least hundreds of millions of capital, take a small tens of millions to buy the copyright within the scope of bearing, it doesn't matter if you transfer some investment shares to Blue Whale, their family can't eat it, Blue Whale has always had a good reputation and is a good partner.

But it is more troublesome for PPTV to participate and even become the broadcast platform of "The Legend of Ruyi".

Xinli doesn't care, but there's a penguin in it.

Penguins and Xinli are very close, and it is said that they have also invested in shares, "The Legend of Ruyi" is a project that Penguin fancies, and they have also made a lot of efforts during the period.

And Orange Shell doesn't know how to understand Boss Wei's instructions, and thinks that "The Legend of Ruyi" has a good prospect, and PPTV will definitely be wiped out as its own platform.

So it's very domineering, the money has to be given, and the investment share has to be given. The platform also wants to share the popularity of "The Legend of Ruyi".

Orange shells have a relaxed mentality, they sell the best, they can't be sold down, and "The Legend of Ruyi" has no shortage of buyers, so it's a big deal to shoot it yourself.

Xinli and Penguin were a little more passive, and they could have gone last time, but all the preparations for this project were gone.

And seeing that the themes of palace fighting such as "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and this year's "Ming Palace Raiders" are so red and purple, they are really greedy for "The Legend of Ruyi", so they finally gave in.

Boss Wei felt a little numb when he saw this contract, and this person in charge of negotiation was a talent.

It's a pity to put orange shells in the bargain, and he should be promoted to Blue Whale and other important companies to maximize his strengths.

However, his wonderful performance put Boss Wei on the shelf.

From beginning to end, he just wanted the copyright of "The Legend of Ruyi" to sell for more money, and then eat some investment shares.

Although there is Wei Yang in this life, the price of "The Legend of Ruyi" may not be able to refresh the historical record, but the price must be very beautiful, take the opportunity to earn some pocket money, and buy a few villas for his son to put milk powder.

But if PPTV spends a lot of money to win "The Legend of Ruyi", then he will not be wronged.

Boss Wei clearly remembers that the results of "The Legend of Ruyi" are not as good as expected now, there is a luxurious lineup, but the flutter is silent.

and even the results and word-of-mouth were beaten by the dead girl's "Yanxi Raiders", which was shot by the heat.

What's even more terrifying is that this drama was later ordered to be taken off the shelves for tampering with history, and after a few years, because there were too many slots, netizens turned it out and collectively complained, and even Zhou Gongzi, who had been in the entertainment industry for decades, walked off the altar.

This kind of loss-making business is just a matter of losing some money.

PPTV is not his company alone, and the company may not lose more money from buying this drama than he made by investing in "The Legend of Ruyi", after all, advertising has to be considered.

But Boss Wei can't afford to lose this person, he has always been known for his shrewdness, and this negotiation also took advantage of it.

"Forget the broadcast rights of the platform, strive for some investment ratios, convert the copyright fee into investment, and then stuff a few actors."

Wei Yang quickly gave instructions, believing that Xinli and Penguin knew that PPTV would not grab "The Legend of Ruyi", and were willing to further retreat in terms of investment amount.

But this seems a little abnormal, and even the person in charge of Orange Shell doesn't quite understand what Boss Wei means.

Wei Yang didn't want to explain too much, so he found an excuse that was barely reasonable.

"I roughly read the script, and I wasn't very satisfied, but the project was a big hit."

The person in charge of Orange Shell is also a veteran in the industry, and he understands it in seconds.

"The Legend of Ruyi" looks good on the outside and can be sold at a high price, so it is worth investing, but it is not good on the inside, the probability of becoming a hit is low, and it is not worth buying and broadcasting.

To put it bluntly, these are two perspectives, one is the film side and the other is the platform side, the former makes money and the latter loses money.

Since Boss Wei has been "self-produced and self-sold" in recent years, everyone has gradually begun to take PPTV as the main perspective, and is more inclined to consider the platform side.

In fact, simply investing in film and television, making a sum of money and leaving is the old business of several companies under Wei Yang's command.

"I see."

The person in charge didn't ask Boss Wei why he wasn't optimistic about "The Legend of Ruyi", and most of the people in these film and television companies under his command had blind confidence in Boss Wei.

Wei Yang said that if he is not optimistic, then there must be something wrong, just do things according to Boss Wei's instructions.

"When the project is negotiated, you can find someone from Emerald Shrimp to follow up, and the blue whale will forget it."

"Okay."

The person in charge responded again, and the evaluation of "Ruyi's Biography" was even lower.

Boss Wei didn't let the blue whale mix, and let the pure money-making black glove jade shrimp and the orange shell they are responsible for copyright come out, and they are not generally optimistic about this drama.

You must know that in recent years, as the name of the blue whale has become more and more famous, the scale itself has become larger and larger, and more and more projects have been involved, and the investment threshold has begun to be lowered.

It is no longer the pursuit of high-quality products with high standards as at the beginning, and the past projects can be invested.

But bad movies are absolutely untouchable, they are basically jade shrimp or other leather bag companies, and simple film and television investment does not affect Boss Wei and Blue Whale.

"The Legend of Ruyi" let the jade shrimp come out, which is a bit equivalent to a bad movie, is this sequel to "The Legend of Zhen Huan" really so pulling?

Really!

After Wei Yang left, Wei Yang deliberately turned out the script that he had held in his hand, looked at it roughly, and couldn't help but shake his head.

Many people say that "The Legend of Ruyi" is bad because the author is the screenwriter, which is a bit biased.

There is still a level of flowing purple, and many of the plots and lines of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" were written by her.

But sometimes the author is easy to be complacent when he creates alone, so he needs another senior screenwriter to fill in the gaps.

"The Legend of Zhen Huan" found another screenwriter and director Bruce Cheng's wife Wang Xiaoping to optimize the script of Liuyu Zi.

So there is no need to bury the flowing purple, the mythical king Xiaoping and Zheng Xiaolong, the quality of the "Biography of Miyue" edited by the latter two is not much classic.

But the three of them teamed up in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which has stepped onto the altar and endured for a long time.

This shows that many people count their lengths, and not every author and screenwriter can maintain a high standard, and it is normal to have peaks and valleys.

There is no doubt that "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is the pinnacle of Liuzi, and "The Legend of Ruyi" is a little worse, and it lacks a good partner, which makes it even worse.

The script is inherently insufficient, and if the director and screenwriter can't hold down the scene anymore, and encounters some leading actors who want to change the script and create their own creation, it is inevitable to overturn.

Over the years, Blue Whale has produced many works that have basically remained above the standard, and one of the reasons is that Boss Wei strictly forbids changing the script.

Many of Blue Whale's scripts have either been reviewed by Boss Wei or jointly reviewed by many screenwriters and directors and producers.

As a result, there are very few problems with the script, and above the level, there is no need to revise it.

Of course, a lot of inspiration and actor creation are inevitable when filming a scene, so it's not impossible to change a word.

The premise is that it cannot be changed significantly, and it must be agreed by the screenwriter and even the director of the group.

Therefore, most of the crew of Blue Whale will send a screenwriter to the group, as a member of the script creation, the screenwriter is the person who knows the script best, and clearly understands whether this change is needed, and the shadow does not affect the plot and characters, and whether it will create a conflict.

If the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, then you can modify them, otherwise, you can't change them.

This rule is set to death, even Liu Shishi, Zhao Liying, and Fan Xiaopang must abide by it, and if something goes wrong, Boss Wei will hold the screenwriter and director accountable.

This rule may seem rigid and unartistic, but it is actually necessary.

The quality of the scripts that have passed the review is fine, the director's level is not too bad, the behind-the-scenes team is strong, and the actors cooperate with honest shooting, then the lower limit can be guaranteed.

On the contrary, the director and actors modify the script according to their own ideas, which is prone to all kinds of problems.

This is a bit similar to South Korea's screenwriting center system, but it is not exactly the same, it is more like Boss Wei, who was born as a screenwriter, with his own unique advantages to control and reform the crew of related projects.

However, it turned out that Wei Yang's approach was right.

It is not excluded that some excellent actors and directors do have more ideas, and some of the ideas are better than the script, but the vast majority of directors and actors do not have this ability.

It's just that they are still addicted to food, and they forcibly create themselves, or they blindly change it out of selfishness to fight for their own interests, and Boss Wei is the one who guards against them.

Because of this impersonal dead rule, the directors and actors have no way to be demons, and most of the works produced and participated in by Blue Whale have always been online.

Wei Yang believes that if the script of "The Legend of Ruyi" is not changed later, it may not explode, and the slots will inevitably be damaged, but it will not be so badly damaged.

Speaking of which, Fan Xiaopang has to thank him this time, otherwise if she shoots "The Legend of Ruyi", she will be the one who will be scolded.

But it doesn't matter, write it down in a small book, if "The Legend of Ruyi" still overturns, he will use this to settle accounts with Fan Xiaopang.........

…

Although Xinli was a little puzzled, she still agreed to Orange Shell's request and officially got the copyright.

There are no secrets in the circle, and soon the preparation for the filming of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the sister chapter "The Legend of Ruyi", has become a hot topic in the industry.

A large number of actresses began to find a way, and the popular Hua Dan hoped to win the role of the heroine, while ordinary actresses and newcomers were eyeing supporting roles.

The supporting roles of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" have become a lot more popular, especially the few small flowers that have been incorporated by Coral, and now the momentum is good, "The Legend of Ruyi" is naturally regarded by everyone as a new "ladder to the sky", and even some artists in the Blue Whale Department are moved.

For example, Wei Yang knew that Tang Yan wanted to fight for the heroine of "The Legend of Ruyi", and Lou Yixiao considered important supporting roles and concubines, as well as male stars who were worried about the male protagonist Qianlong.

But just when the circle was excited about "The Legend of Ruyi", another news detonated the entire industry.

Boss Wei's new work has begun to be prepared, and external casting has begun.

It is said that Wei Yang's new work this time is more realistic and artistic, so he doesn't plan to use too many stars, and is more inclined to powerful actors.

And it is especially explained that they don't value fame, and young actors and amateurs are even considered advantages.

This condition is actually understandable, some realistic crews don't like to use the audience's familiar faces, and feel that there are no surprises, but there are no famous young actors and amateurs, and the audience is relatively unfamiliar and more real.

As soon as this news came out, Blue Whale's registration mailbox was almost crowded with resumes.........
