Chapter 46 Avoiding
Wang Qianqian recommended herself and volunteered to adapt "The Sword of Yue Girl" for Gong Chengen, which really made Gong Chengen very happy, and she felt a sense of "joining hands with couples and participating in the grand event". Moreover, Wang Qianqian had already shown her talent in the previous dramas. Even if she didn't understand or could not professionally convert the novel into a script, there was nothing to worry about. As the same thing, the Gong family was some professional screenwriters.
"I'll find a few handy screenwriters to help you," Gong Chengen said with a compliment.
"Oh, then I won't do it." Wang Qianqian changed as soon as she said.
"Then I won't look for it, I can polish the ink for you." Gong Chengen knew this woman's temper well. She said that not writing was definitely not a simple threat, so she quickly took on a joke that was neither salty nor naive.
Fortunately, Wang Qianqian did not continue to make things difficult, nodded and said, "I found a way to let me meet that uncle Gu Yongsheng. I have a few questions and I want to ask them in person."
No matter how quirky Wang Qianqian is, he can tell the author's age from the skills revealed in the two novels, and it is still very obvious. The title of "Uncle Gu Yongsheng" is not wrong in a sense.
"This is for me." Gong Chengen said confidently. From the first day of entering the code circle, many authors began to fantasize that their books would be adapted into movies and TV series, changed into games and comics, and had to go away through all channels, and the world would be invincible. Gong Er had rarely seen too many authors of this type and knew their enthusiasm for entering the film and television circle, so he thought that Gu Yongsheng would be no exception.
"Well, I would like to remind you, pay attention to "Seven Swords Under Tianshan", it is best to get the copyright in advance, this is even more interesting."
...
Liu Jingting, known as "Uncle Gu Yongsheng", was standing on the balcony to answer a call at this time. He looked very comfortable and said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem with this. I have talked to Editor Mai Mai before, but I don't know much about this, so I can only trouble Yao Da."
The editor-in-chief Yao Lihua, who is on the phone with Liu Jingting. "Shuke and Beta" has been in more than 20 chapters, and another famous character, Pipilu, has also appeared. After the Cat City incident, the outstanding imagination and ups and downs of "Shuke and Beta" have been revealed. The comic publisher who has been watching for a long time can no longer hold back and immediately contacted Editor Yao to express his intention to adapt.
Editor-in-chief Yao still means to continue pushing back, and it will take at least one hundred chapters to do this, so Liu Jingting naturally would not object.
Less than half a minute after hanging up Editor Yao's phone number, the phone rang again. It was Tang Nan.
"I have been calling you just now, but I have been talking." Tang Nan explained, "I have something quite important to ask you."
"Is it a serial issue?"
"There is no problem with the serialization. I want to ask if the copyright of "The Sword of Yue Girl" is still in hand?"
"Ah? Oh, here."
"That's right. Yesterday Xingyue TV found Mr. Lu, hoping to buy the TV copyright of "The Sword of Yue Girl", but this..." Tang Nan hesitated a little, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Liu Jingting is so smart that he knows what Tang Nan wants to say. There is a provision in the contract he signed with Qianhong that within three years, the priority ownership of copyright for any martial arts works he published publicly belongs to Qianhong. According to the contractual provisions, the priority copyright of this article "The Sword of Yue Girl" is naturally owned by Qianhong.
"I understand what you mean. I have no problem here. Just talk to them. Just tell me some important matters that I need to know.
Tang Nan hurriedly said: "This is a matter of course. We will strive to maximize the benefits of this story, please rest assured."
Liu Jingting smiled, said "I'm working hard", and then the two hung up the phone.
Liu Jingting held his cell phone in his left hand and naturally drooped to his pants pocket. Looking at the lush woods in front of him, he suddenly realized something important - the TV series adaptation of the novel.
First of all, he did not object to this adaptation at all. In fact, in that world, he first came into contact with these martial arts masterpieces, but from TV series. Whether it is Jin Guliang or Wen Huang, the reason why their works have a huge influence is that TV series adaptation is definitely a very important link.
In the literary and artistic industry, the content field is well deserved to be at the top of the industrial chain, from large screens to various movies, small screens to large series or mini dramas, stages to dramas and music. It can be said that the rise and fall of the content field determines the rise and fall of the entire cultural industry.
Whether it is Liu Jingting's previous world or the current world, the lack of content has led to frequent spoils in literary and artistic works.
Film and television dramas are either European and American style or Japanese and Korean waves. You can hear someone talking authentic American English at any time. You can hear girls calling Oppa in delicate ways.
No matter what mentality it is, this phenomenon does reflect an undeniable fact - we are constantly being influenced by foreign cultures. Of course, this has nothing to do with love or patriotism, and it is simply impossible to beat others.
In Liu Jingting's impression, he had walked into the cinema many times with the mentality of supporting domestic movies. Then, after watching the shit, he left the cinema with depression, and cursed indignantly, "All movies that do not tell stories and sell technology are stinky**."
Another thing that happened in that world is that classics are constantly remade, which is popular with Mr. Jin Yong's works. Almost every year one or two works are taken out and shot again.
This is certainly because of the unique artistic charm of Kim’s martial arts itself, but the essential reason is that the content area is as desolate as a desert.
A large number of local tyrants slashed their heads and spent a lot of money on the entertainment industry. Famous directors and actors invited them to come over, and then everyone made a script, then turned on the film, worked hard, and then went, sold, and sold hard.
Liu Jingting once carefully summarized that almost every movie or TV series that became popular relies on a relatively excellent story, such as the works of "Thirty-Three Days of Love Break", "Let the Bullets Fly", "To Youth", "Shocking Hearts" and other works.
For movies without a good script, no matter how gorgeous the stunts or how bright the clothes are, the final things shot must be shit, and at most they are shit that are packaged more beautifully.
This sad phenomenon has lasted for a long time, and everyone will involuntarily accept this matter and say "XX is dead," for example, Liu Jingting often sees people on forums or microblogs with deep emotion, saying "Martial arts is dead" in sadness. He once expressed doubts about this. If martial arts is dead, then why are so many people scrambling to remake martial arts dramas?
So, maybe no subject matter will die, but no one can write a corresponding good story. After all, this is just a comforting sentence, and this is a very pretentious sentence. In the end, all the analysis and explanations are nothing more than just one sentence, but no one can write it.
Liu Jingting in that world once made a great wish, hoping that he could contribute a good story to the world in the future. Now that he accidentally entered this world, it seems that the wishes of the other world can be realized in another way.
"Television drama," Liu Jingting became excited inexplicably, "I must do it well."
Thinking that he may be possible in the future, no, he must have participated in the adaptation of works such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", etc., even Liu Jingting, who has two lives of souls, could not suppress his inner excitement.
Of course, even participating does not mean that Liu Jingting has been putting his pen from the camera since then. He has not finished the book he wants to push, and he will not stop working for a day. He can only rely on the rights in his hands to control the shooting of those TV series and make up for the regrets he once did. Why not do it?
Liu Jingting returned to the house, sat in front of the table, picked up a pencil and spread it out. After thinking for a while, he began to write:
Wen Rui'an: "Who is the hero series" and "Four Famous Catch Series";
Huang Yi: "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", "The Legend of Qin", "The Legend of the Clouds and Rain";
After stopping the pen and thinking for a while, nodding and saying to himself: "There is Xiao Shiyilang!"
Readers who know Mr. Gu Long's works must know that "Xiao Shiyilang" was originally a script and was also the first martial arts masterpiece that had a script first and then a novel.
The reason why Liu Jingting listed these works was because he suddenly realized that with the emergence of "The Sword of Yue Girl", "Seven Swords" and the next "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch", film and television adaptations are almost inevitable. He needs to make adjustments to his previous plan. Now, with Wen Juxia and Huang Shi, he can basically be at ease in three years of high school.
However, these are temporary plans after all, and everything must be adapted to the times. For example, the early birth of "The Sword of Yue Girl" is a grand event that happens to catch up.
After writing this simple plan, Liu Jingting felt much more relaxed. It was strange to say that he had this talent and should have been invincible, but sometimes he felt a sense of pressure. It was not pretentious excuses such as fame or leisurely mouth, but something more pretentious like a stream of responsibility.
Human hearts are originally very complicated things. After all, Liu Jingting cannot write down the books in his mind one by one like a machine every day and then push them out all of them.
He also wants to witness and feel it, so we can't be too anxious about this matter.
...
"The representatives on Xingyue TV want to see you, saying they want to talk about the adaptation of "The Sword of Yue Girl".
At night, Liu Jingting was chatting with Mi Hu, and Tang Nan suddenly left him a message in WC.
"You don't have to see people. Well, this is a short story. If they want to do TV, they will definitely make major changes. I have no objection. They just need to pay the copyright fee as long as the contract."
