Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 17
"Agitation Literature" wants the priority of film and television adaptation, not the right of film and television adaptation.

The film and television adaptation rights are not easy to talk about. This book does not have hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is estimated that the film and television adaptation rights may not be available, but the publishing house is not willing. Although Li Nan and Fang Xingkai are very optimistic about this book, the potential is potential, and it cannot be realized for the time being. , it is impossible for the publishing house to take risks for this.

The priority of film and television adaptation, and the specific profit distribution depends on what is written in the contract. If Zhang Zhong agrees to the royalty plan, they will have to negotiate on the distribution of the income from the adaptation right.

Zhang Zhong didn't expect Fang Xingkai's call to come so quickly. He just wanted to go to bed and lie down for a while when the phone rang.

"Editor Fang, have you discussed it so soon?"

Fang Xingkai smiled and said, "Well, the editor-in-chief attaches great importance to it. We have re-given a general condition, [-] points in royalties, ten years of signing, and ten years of priority rights for film and television adaptation. What do you think?"

He raised three points, but Zhang Zhong didn't expect the other party to be so decisive.

As for whether these three points are worth the priority of film and television adaptation, in fact, no one can say for sure. How much the three points are worth depends on the sales volume of the book after publication. Not worth the money anymore.

However, Zhang Zhong is quite satisfied with the new conditions. He didn’t struggle with the royalties before because he is a newcomer, and asking for a [-]% royalty should be enough. If it is higher, the other party probably won’t give it either. So I thought about keeping the copyright in my own hands as much as possible, with a higher degree of freedom.

But he underestimated the other party's determination, and was willing to exchange three percentage points for the priority of film and television adaptation.

13.00% royalty is already the best in the industry.

"Well, I accept this condition, but let's talk about the priority of film and television adaptation."

"Of course, if it's convenient, I'm going to Jiangyang City tomorrow. We can talk face to face and finalize the details of the contract." Fang Xingkai said.

Zhang Zhong was a little surprised, he didn't expect the publishing house to be in such a hurry.But hurrying up is also a good thing, he nodded and said, "Well, yes, you can arrange the specific time and place."

"Ok."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhong rested his head on the bed.At the end of summer, the weather was still hot, and the air conditioner in the house was too old to work, so Zhang Zhong didn't turn it on.

Some camphor trees were planted next to the apartment in the old community. The fruits on them were already ripe, and when they fell on the ground, they were trampled into a purple-black paste. The smell was also pungent and unpleasant.

A gust of wind blows in, and there are two very conflicting sensations in the nasal cavity and skin. He covets the coolness of the breeze, but hates the unpleasant smell in the wind.

If the book develops well, you can change the house after a while. Even if you can't afford the house with the manuscript fee, you can rent a better house.

Dad's canteen can also quit. If he is reluctant, he can change the place and change the canteen to a big one.

Pengpeng's kindergarten costs 9000 yuan a semester, which should be okay, but if she wants to change her place of residence, she has to change her to another kindergarten.

No, Pengpeng will be in the middle class next semester, and the students in the class have been together for a year, so it takes time to adapt to a new environment rashly.

Let's find a better house nearby. There seems to be a new building next to the subway entrance. There are several small high-rise buildings inside. There is a garden on the first floor. I saw it when I was running in the morning.

Next to the new building is a garden. When you have nothing to do, you can take Pengpeng for a walk. From the place where they live now, it takes nearly two kilometers to walk, which is a bit far...

Zhang Chong's thoughts flew very far, and he even thought about how to arrange for Pengpeng to go to elementary school and middle school in the future.

And his parents, who are not young anymore, should retire and come back to take care of themselves. They have been lying in bed for five years. During these five years, the old couple had no son, and Peng Peng had no father. This is all due to him. Come back now, he will make up for all these things.

[System prompt: The points have been accumulated to [-], and [-] points can get a chance to draw a lottery, please come on. 】

When Zhang Zhong was thinking about the future, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in his mind. The system hadn't appeared since the last lottery draw, but he didn't expect it to appear suddenly at this time.

But it came and went so fast that Zhang Zhong didn't even have time to react.

This system is very cold, there is neither explanation nor interaction, only one sentence at a time, let Zhang Zhong figure out everything by himself.

Last time he was thinking about what the points are and how to get them. Now the system tells him that the points have accumulated to [-], but he can't figure out where the [-] points come from.

[Hint: The cultural impact of the host on this world will generate points, excluding the impact of items obtained by the system. 】

There is even a hint.

Zhang Zhong chewed this sentence carefully, as long as he has an influence on the culture of this world, he can get points, and the greater the influence, the more points he should get.

And the latter sentence does not include the impact of items obtained by the system, which means that "Jieyou Grocery Store" cannot provide him with points.

So--

The points he has obtained now should all come from "Journey to the West".

"Journey to the West" was brought by himself, and spread through the Internet, it must have had an impact on the culture of this world.

It's just that the point calculation system Zhang Zhong couldn't figure out how to calculate the one hundred points.

But in any case, to get a chance to draw a lottery, he must constantly influence the culture of this world.

This is not a simple matter. "Journey to the West" happened to be photographed and spread on the Internet. It became a small hit, and it couldn't last at all.

Write down "Journey to the West"?It is impossible for him to have this ability, at least not now.

Zhang Chong reads more carefully than ordinary people, and his memory is also stronger than ordinary people, so he can remember even ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties.But remembering these does not mean that the book can be reproduced.

Some people, if you talk to him about Conan, he can tell you all the cases in great detail; if you talk to him about pirates, he can even tell you every move, but if you ask him to write these stories, he will It won't work.

Zhang Zhong’s current situation is probably like this. The last time he talked about “Journey to the West” in Kendaji, he also used the simplest language. It’s okay to listen to it as a story, but if it becomes words and written on paper, the feeling is completely different. up.

But Zhang Chong can't record a video telling a story.

You have to find a way.

After much deliberation, there was no good way, so Zhang Zhong decided to use a deadly method. First, he wrote it out based on his impressions, and then revised and polished it as a whole. of.
