Chapter 34 Change Your Taste
Today's Longkong forum was as lively as ever, especially the post from Mubai yesterday, which pushed Bluewhale.com to the forefront. Even if Zhou Mingde, the editor-in-chief of Bluewhale.com, came out personally, all kinds of explanations were useless.

And this morning, when a local author in Hangzhou uploaded screenshots of the news circulated in the circle of friends to the forum, it became even more lively, especially Han Simiao, the general manager, and Lu Youming, the operations director. The picture of walking out of the company under the "escort" of the company directly pushed Blue Whale.com into a huge pit ten meters wide!
At this time, the Blue Whale.com company was in a mess, and several employees even handed over their resignation letters to the editor-in-chief Zhou Mingde's desk.

"Editor-in-Chief, let's think of a way, our writer group is about to explode!" It was Qingxu, the male editor-in-chief of Blue Whale.com who spoke.

Liu Li, editor-in-chief of the female channel, also looked uneasy, "Editor-in-Chief, won't the company just go bankrupt like this?"

Both of them were called in by the editor-in-chief Zhou Mingde. Right now, Han Simiao was taken away to find out the situation. The one with the highest status was Zhou Mingde and the editor-in-chief of Men and Women.

Zhou Mingde glared at her angrily, what did this girl say, "Don't worry, it's just some trouble!"

"Really, but those little girls in the group are all making noise, how should I answer them?" Liuli, the editor-in-chief of the female channel, is actually not very old, and she is only 26 or [-] years old. thoughts.This sudden situation made her feel confused.

"Let's just say that the company's problem is not serious, it won't go bankrupt, and the manuscript fee will definitely be paid on time, so they can continue to update it!" Zhou Mingde was familiar with dealing with such things, and quickly figured out how to deal with them.

"You editors are the same, bring your own team!"

"Understood!" The two responded in unison, and when they walked out, their steps became much more stable.

Qingxu only felt a lot of relief in his heart, at least, the company didn't have to go bankrupt...

The matter of Blue Whale.com came to an end. Immediately afterwards, Situ Xiaoxiao and Ni Yinyin's money arrived in the account, which gave Mu Bai some confidence, and the company entered into intensive preparations.

On Thursday, the animation production project that had been suspended was started again, and the six people in dormitory 502 finally selected the final works!
"Immortal King, this work is a relatively well-known work in the Xianxia category. Its hits and favorites are not low, and its popularity is not weak! It's a pity that the price is a bit high!"

"Shen Huang, the work of the pioneering god, has a lot of fans, the plot is very reasonable, and there are a lot of highlights, the adaptation is not bad!"

"This wizard's journey is the least popular among the three works, and the adaptation is quite difficult, which will also lead to an increase in costs, but it is not a problem for me!"

"Ahhh, I'm so tangled up, which one should I choose?!" Mu Bai covered his head, caught in a tangled state!

Yesterday, after receiving a reply from the copyright department of Qidian, Mu Bai and others eliminated several works beyond their ability, and finally left three works. Among the three works, the copyright price of Immortal King is the highest, as high as 80. Followed by Shenhuang, also reached 70.

On the other hand, the copyright price of the wizard's journey that is still being updated is only 50 yuan.

(PS: The author doesn’t know much about the price of animation adaptation rights, and I can’t find any information about it on the Internet. In view of this, the author himself set a price of less than one million yuan for them. Please forgive me if there are any mistakes!)
"Old Bai, don't get entangled, choose one quickly!" In the evening, in bedroom 502, Mu Bai was surrounded by five other people, and he laughed.

Mubai's difficulty in choosing has struck!

Since yesterday, after several layers of screening, three works that best suit Mu Bai's wishes were finally selected. However, up to now, Mu Bai has not made up his mind and determined his goal.

"Immortal King, Divine Brilliance, Journey of the Wizard, in fact, all of them are good, and they are also popular on the Internet!" Fatty said with a smile.

The third child, Xu Haiyuan, was quite helpless, "Otherwise, you can draw lots, Old Bai!"

"That's right, let's draw lots!"

"...No need to draw lots!" Suddenly, Mu Bai, who had been silent all this time, stood up and said with a smile, "Just choose the wizard journey!"

"From the perspective of the market, most of the animation works currently on the market are fairy tales, and there are almost no wizards..."

"The war scene in The Wizard's Journey is very grand, and this is a huge advantage for us. I believe no company can produce such a scene except us!"

"We've played enough martial arts, gods and monsters, and it's time to give the audience a change!"

This time, Mu Bai decided to go out in person and talk to the people at the starting point in person!
Anyway, the headquarters of the starting point is on the other side of Shanghai, and Hangzhou used to take less than an hour, which is almost the distance from home.

"I don't know how many days I'm going, remember to protect the dormitory!" After getting the leave note, Mu Bai reminded, to be honest, the software in the dormitory is what he is most worried about right now, although, he The system has been re-encrypted, but there is no guarantee that others will not hit him with bad ideas.

"It's time to move the working machine to a safe place as soon as possible!" Mu Bai reminded secretly in his heart.

"Don't worry, Lao Bai, you must take good care of your precious lump!" The fat man joked with a smile.

"That's right, he will never lose a single hair!" The third child patted his chest, almost giving Mu Bai some guarantee.

Mu Bai smiled, "That's good, I'll go first!"

……

"Dear passengers, this train is about to arrive, please..."

It was already the first time when the lanterns came to Shanghai. During the hour on the high-speed rail, there were no accidents at all, let alone any romantic encounters, which disappointed Mu Bai who wanted to feel the treatment of the protagonist in the novel.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Mu Bai came to the headquarters of Qidian.com, Bibo Building located in Zhangjiang Science and Technology Park, PDX District.

Looking at the young Mu Bai, Shen Yunyan always felt that he had seen it somewhere, "Do you want to buy the animation copyright of Wizard's Journey?"

Shen Yunyan is the manager of the copyright department, and he is a low-qualified one, who can only handle small orders like Mu Bai, so he cherishes this hard-won opportunity very much.

"That's right, I'm very optimistic about this novel from Qidian.com, and I plan to make it into an anime!" Mu Bai didn't have any intention of hiding it, and went straight to the point.

"I can already feel this, but what price do you plan to offer?" Shen Yunyan said.

"I have already asked your side a few days ago, and the quotation you gave me is from 50 yuan!"

"Well, but you also know that our work is very popular at present, and investors often come to inquire about the copyright recently..." Shen Yunyan smiled lightly, not paying attention to Mu Bai's quotation.

Mu Bai didn't care and said, "However, they prefer to buy film and television copyrights and game copyrights, and at worst, comic copyrights, and animation copyrights... To be honest, I'm afraid not many people ask about it?"

That's right, among the various copyrights derived from novels, animation copyrights can be said to be the most difficult. Grandma doesn't love it, and uncle doesn't love it. It feels like being raised by a stepmother.

However, who makes animation far more complicated than film and television games, and the number of viewers is small. Most of them like Japanese comics and look down on Chinese comics in various ways, which hinders the rise of Chinese comics even more.

Because of this, compared to the tens of millions of film and television adaptation prices, the animation adaptation price only needs hundreds of thousands!
