Chapter 284 The Legend of Sword and Fairy

Zhang Songnian smiled and shook his head. Martial arts dramas have declined in this era. If Zhang Songnian took out a martial arts script to talk about ratings with people from Golden Feather Entertainment, the other party would probably think he was crazy.

What Golden Feather Entertainment wants now is a script that can have an immediate effect on ratings.

The stories of the Condor Shooting Trilogy are indeed very exciting, but people in this era have lost their enthusiasm for martial arts, and it is unrealistic to want to break the ratings record through a martial arts drama.

Moreover, copyright issues may also be involved in this. If it is sold to Jin Yu Entertainment in the form of a script, Zhang Songnian will definitely feel inappropriate, and this is not what he wants.

The copyright of the Condor Shooting Trilogy must be firmly in his own hands, but after all Jin Yu gave a high price, but if he doesn't even have the qualifications to buy it out, then the people from Jin Yu Entertainment must be Not necessarily happy.

In fact, Zhang Songnian may not care about the copyright of other scripts. After all, the price given by Golden Feather Entertainment is really high. A script can easily cost tens of millions. Jin Yu Entertainment offered Zhang Songnian a quotation without saying a word, and the price was quite straightforward. This is why Zhang Songnian was willing to continue to maintain a cooperative relationship with Jin Yu Entertainment. Without him, they gave too much.

But even so, Zhang Songnian still couldn't ignore the issue of copyright in the scripts of the Condor Shooting Trilogy.

As one of the martial arts series with the most remakes on the planet, the Condor Shooting Trilogy has been remade no less than dozens of times in the past few decades. There will be TV series adapted from Jin Yong's works. This sentence is not an exaggeration at all, and the benefits generated from it are countless.

It can be said that the potential IP value of the series of The Condor Shooting Trilogy is very large, so large that Zhang Songnian feels that it cannot be ignored.

Although the times are different now, and Zhang Songnian is not sure about the results of these works, his intuition still tells Zhang Songnian that in order to avoid unnecessary disputes, it is right to firmly hold the copyright of this thing in his own hands.

"Not now, the timing is not right. If there is an opportunity in the future, we can consider it." After thinking for a while, Zhang Songnian rejected Li Xingruo's suggestion.

Li Xingruo tilted his head curiously, and asked, "Then what do you think is the right time?"

"When these few books of mine become popular, I can talk to others about adapting them for film and television." Zhang Songnian said without hesitation.

"Chi!" Li Xingruo burst out laughing.

Although Li Xingruo doesn't know much about the current novel market, he also knows that martial arts novels have little chance of becoming popular in this world, and he doesn't know where his husband has such confidence.

Zhang Songnian glanced at Li Xingruo helplessly, he could see that his wife seemed to be laughing at his innocence, but Zhang Songnian couldn't tell her that these novels were actually very popular in his previous life, and maybe the world would be a big hit as well. .

Li Xingruo didn't hit Zhang Songnian anymore, but saw a book called "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" on Zhang Songnian's desk, and Li Xingruo, relieved of curiosity, took it over and planned to read it, but she wanted to see what novel Zhang Songnian wrote.

After seeing Li Xingruo sitting on the side obediently reading the novel, Zhang Songnian also set his eyes on the computer screen, and then stared at the screen intently and began to think.

There are countless excellent and classic scripts in Zhang Songnian's mind, but it is really hard to say that the quality can be steadily better than a phenomenon-level drama like "In the Name of the People".

After all, many works are not from the same era at all, and there is not much reference in the data.

In addition to the quality, the popularity of a drama also needs the right time, place, and harmony. For example, "In the Name of the People" was officially endorsed when it was broadcast, and it coincided with the high anti-corruption sentiment, so the TV drama can naturally become popular is expected.

However, works like "In the Name of the People" are not perfect. The audience of this drama is limited, or this drama is only suitable for adults to watch, which means that the upper limit of this drama is always limited. of.

It’s not that this show is bad, but because of realistic themes and anti-corruption TV series, most of the young people will be naturally screened out, because few people pay attention to these issues in the carefree age. Adults who are severely beaten in society know how common the phenomenon in "In the Name of the People" is in society, and how heart-wrenching the lines in the play are.

Thinking of this, after Zhang Songnian thought about it, he made up his mind about what kind of script he planned to write for Jin Yu.

Two hours later, Zhang Songnian, who had been busy with the script frame for two hours, wanted to get up from the chair and stretch, but when he got up, he found that there seemed to be someone sitting beside him all the time. Zhang Songnian turned his face and saw Li Xingruo. Concentrate on reading the book.

Looking at the serious Li Xingruo, Zhang Songnian felt a little funny.

This woman seemed to laugh at herself for writing novels just now, but now she is fascinated by reading "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

The essence of human beings is really fragrant.

But seeing Li Xingruo's serious expression, Zhang Songnian became more confident for no reason.

Gold always shines. Sure enough, no matter which world a good work is in, the light will not be too dim.

Zhang Songnian thought for a while, and finally stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Li Xingruo a few times.

After Li Xingruo's concentration was interrupted by Zhang Songnian, he raised his head in a daze, and found that Zhang Songnian was looking at him with a half-smile.

Li Xingruo frowned. He was reading well at first, but his thoughts were interrupted. Li Xingruo asked Zhang Songnian angrily, "What are you doing?"

"Does it look good?" Zhang Songnian asked.

Li Xingruo gave Zhang Songnian a supercilious, childish man when he heard the words.

But Li Xingruo still nodded honestly and replied: "It's not bad, it looks good, no wonder you are so confident."

In two hours, Li Xingruo read about tens of thousands of words. The ups and downs and magnificent novel style of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" made Li Xingruo want to stop. If Zhang Songnian didn't interrupt him, Li Xingruo felt that he could keep reading.

Zhang Songnian was very satisfied with Li Xingruo's reaction, the book had already gained its first reader in this world before it was published, which gave Zhang Songnian more confidence.

A confidence that makes martial arts novels sweep this era again.

-

A week later, according to the time agreed with Li Zhengming, Zhang Songnian showed up at the Golden Feather Entertainment building with the script in his hand.

Zhang Songnian walked in the familiar corridor, and everyone around him looked sideways. There were not many Jin Yu employees who didn't know Zhang Songnian.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang."

"Mr. Zhang early"

"boss Zhang."

"."

When meeting people who had been greeting him frequently on the road, Zhang Songnian just nodded with a smile, and did not directly answer their questions.

Zhang Songnian's ambiguous attitude made everyone feel as uncomfortable as scratching an itch. In the month since Zhang Songnian left Jin Yu, the people in the animation department were the ones who were least used to it.

Although Zhang Songnian rarely came to the company before, Zhang Songnian's role in the animation department is actually similar to that of Dinghaishenzhen.

Since Zhang Songnian left Jinyu, the animation department seemed to have lost its Dinghai magic needle, and the enthusiasm for the work of the entire department dropped a lot in an instant.

Before Zhang Songnian left, the animation department hadn't worried about performance for a long time, but because of Zhang Songnian's departure, the animation department's projects this year have not progressed, and the previous phenomenal animation works can clearly feel the heat of IP At the end, it has begun to go downhill a little bit.

Therefore, it will be the happiest to see Zhang Songnian suddenly appearing in the Golden Feather Entertainment Building, who is also in the animation department.

"Fuck, isn't this Mr. Zhang? Could it be that he's coming back? That's really great!"

"It's good to come back, or I won't be able to work well."

"To be honest, without Mr. Zhang in the animation department, I always feel empty inside, as if I don't have any sense of security."

"Indeed, I also have this feeling, I thought I was the only one feeling this time."

"Indeed, our Golden Feather animation department does not have Mr. Zhang, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem"

Looking at Zhang Songnian's back, the people in the animation department had no intention of working, but gathered together and whispered, their expressions full of excitement.

At first, I thought it was a big conflict between the company and Zhang Songnian, which caused Zhang Songnian to leave, but now it seems that this may not be the case, because since Zhang Songnian can still appear in the Golden Feather Entertainment Building, it means that both sides Actually no problem.

The sudden appearance of Zhang Songnian in the Jinyu Building this time made them even more imaginative. Maybe the two sides will re-discuss the signing of the return when they come back this time.

Zhang Songnian didn't know that he had such an important position in the animation department, but all the way through the company's gate, Zhang Songnian realized for the first time that he was quite well-known in Jinyu Entertainment.

Along the way, Zhang Songnian has already received a lot of people greeting him. If it was in the past, Zhang Songnian might have responded, but thinking that he is not Jin Yu's person now, and the person in power now is Li Jianhua, Zhang Songnian simply resigned. Keep it cool, lest Li Jianhua have any thoughts in his heart at that time, it is better to have more things than less things.

When Zhang Songnian appeared in the office of the general manager of Golden Feather Entertainment again, there were already many people sitting in the office.

Zhang Songnian glanced over, and found that they were basically old acquaintances.

Li Zhengming, Jiang Guangmin, and Wen Yanjun, who is in charge of the film and television department, made Zhang Songnian more curious that Li Jianhua was not there.

But that's fine, anyway, Zhang Songnian doesn't really want to communicate with Li Jianhua face to face, it's probably the case that we don't agree with each other.

"Hey, it's Songnian, sit down." After hearing Zhang Songnian's knock on the door, several people in the office stopped talking, and then Li Zhengming gestured to Zhang Songnian enthusiastically.

Zhang Songnian nodded with a smile, then walked into the office and found a place to sit down, and then put the script in his hand on the table.

Following Zhang Songnian's actions, everyone's eyes focused on the script in front of Zhang Songnian.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhang Songnian didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "Mr. Li, I have probably finished the script that you told me last time."

While speaking, Zhang Songnian pushed the script in front of Li Zhengming.

Li Zhengming had a gleam of joy on his face when he heard the words, and then picked up the script in his hand. Several other people also put their eyes on Li Zhengming's hands. script.

As for Golden Feather Entertainment, facing Xingcan Entertainment's relentless pursuit, at least they cannot catch up in the short term. Golden Feather Entertainment needs more high-quality scripts to widen the gap between the two.

Everyone knows this, but it is really difficult to do it.

It's not that Jin Yu's screenwriting team can't write good scripts, but there's really no way to guarantee 100% that they can write phenomenal hits.

Therefore, Li Zhengming can only pin his hopes on Zhang Songnian. In the past two years, Zhang Songnian has been creating miracles for Jin Yu Entertainment, and this time it is not a bad idea.

For Zhang Songnian, Li Zhengming trusted him from the bottom of his heart.

"The Legend of Sword and Fairy?" Looking at the name of the script in Li Zhengming's hand, Wen Yanjun read it from the side.

This is Zhang Songnian's first script for Jin Yu Entertainment after repeated consideration.

As a post-90s generation, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" left a deep impression on Zhang Songnian. If Zhang Songnian had to play this drama, it would be the pinnacle of the Xianxia series of TV series, none of them.

Classics must be able to pinpoint the eternal things in human nature, so as not to be eroded by the impetuousness of the times.

There is nothing wrong with this statement.

"Legend of Sword and Fairy" is a drama that Zhang Songnian watched so many TV dramas when he was a child. When he looked back and watched it again, he found that this drama is rare. Besides the plot, the screenwriter also tried to tell the audience other things TV series.

Love and kindness are the themes of this play.

Love, friendship, and family affection are all reflected in this play, and these feelings are all sincere and moving.

Using the stories of fantasy fairy tales to tell ordinary and true feelings, this TV series is worthy of the title of peak fairy tales.

Because of time constraints, Li Zhengming didn't read the script carefully, but spent more than ten minutes flipping through it roughly. He didn't even have time to think about the plots and characters in it, but this didn't affect Li Zhengming. Inner shock.

The potential of this drama is definitely not worse than "In the Name of the People", and the upper limit may even be higher.

Because the subject matter of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is destined to have a much higher audience than the former.
