Chapter 198 The Shinjuku Incident
It really doesn't cost much to buy a first-hand copyright now.

Tianxia Bachang signed a contract in a daze and gave away the copyright of Ghost Chuideng, and it didn't get stuck at all.

The current authors don't have much IP awareness, and Ji Yun is willing to give up his copyright even if there are a lot of authors who have produced hundreds of thousands of works.

To be honest, people in this era never thought that Doupo could be adapted into a TV series.

But they bought copyright, and now they can only buy second-hand.

Not only Ji Yun saw the prospect of IP, in fact, people have seen the influence of IP since the late 90s.

Only a layman like Liu Che has never heard of this term.

The far-sighted ones have already scored all the IP points that have just been interviewed.

Since you buy second-hand, you have to spend money.

This is different from spending money on projects for filming and TV series, and there is no benefit in a short period of time.

Even if the company uses tiger skin as a banner to fool investors into investing money, it is estimated that few people have enough money to look to the future.

But fortunately, Liu Che is so smart in the company.

Of course, he wouldn't really take Liu Che for being taken advantage of, so his first goal was on works with a short production cycle and a high rate of return.

"Scary Step by Step, The Legend of Zhen Huan, and Langya Bang. Startling by every step can be taken down first. The cycle of this book is short and the return is quick."

Liu Che looked at the names on the blackboard and tapped his fingers on the table.

After pondering for a long time, "The point is, I'm busy now, why don't we put it aside for a while?"

He just became the producer not long ago, and he hasn't gotten tired of it yet, so he's definitely not happy to ask him to go out to solicit resources now.

"That's okay." Ji Yun regretfully said: "Then I have to hand over the identity of this producer. After all, this troublesome work is done by others, and it's not easy for me to let my brother take credit for it."

"Wait a minute!" Liu Che's ears perked up, "Producer?"

"Ah." Ji Yun said belatedly: "Didn't I tell you? Whoever gets these copyrights will hand over the producer's position to him in the future remake."

"Producer" Liu Che chewed on the term.

"That's right, the three words of producer and the two words of supervisor, you should be able to tell which is higher and which is lower."

Liu Che's eyes brightened immediately, "Leave this to me!"

Ji Yun couldn't hold back his smile, "What if you left the producer of the crew?"

"Whatever you want to do, I'll contact you right now." Liu Che did as soon as he thought about it, and rushed out quickly.

"The Legend of Zhen Huan is not finished yet, remember to sign all the copyrights of the finished book."

Ji Yun directed at his back and instructed.

"Don't worry, just wait for my good news."

Finally, Liu Che was arranged, and the filming of the crew was on track.

I don't know if Ji Yun has played too many villains, and he has more villain temperament. In short, when he was tutoring the crew, Wang Zhi always got stuck. After he left, Wang Zhi's performance gradually improved.

"It must be because she is afraid of her boss." Ji Yun tried to help himself helplessly.

"Yes, yes, yes, what Boss Ji said is correct." Wan Qian looked at the angry Ji Yun, and helped him find the steps with a smile.

She knew what was going on with her man, and she felt itchy all over when she wasn't acting. She said she was teaching him how to act, but she actually wanted to perform.

He acted so well and set a benchmark. Wang Zhi, a fledgling girl, will definitely not be able to reach his height, and she will definitely not perform well over time.

"Aren't you holding back when you have no scenes?"

Wan Qian's words hit Ji Yun's pain point directly.

"What do you mean no filming? I'm just picking a scene." Ji Yun stiffened his neck and said.

"Jingle bell~"

When the phone rang just right, Ji Yun's eyes lit up instantly, as if he hadn't seen a starving ghost eating for a long time.

Er Dongsheng's name appeared on the caller ID, and Ji Yun immediately felt relieved.

He ostentatiously swiped at Wan Qian's eyes, and picked it up under her reproachful eyes.

"Hello? Is it Ji Yun?"

"Director Er, it's me."

"Are you busy now? I have a scene to film here, do you have time?"

"If you have time, you can shoot."

It's not that Ji Yun is hungry, it's just that Er Dongsheng is on the other end of the phone, a director with an average word-of-mouth score of 7.5 or more. It's too difficult to find a broken one among his films.

"Listen to me first, the main filming location of this drama is in Neon, so we have to go abroad to shoot, because the filming of the crew needs to be run-in with the local area, so the shooting time this time may be a bit long. We invited Wu Yanzu before , he chose to give up acting because of the long shooting time."

Ji Yun frowned, and looked at Wan Qian who was sitting facing him.

The voice of the phone was a bit loud, and Wan Qian's face became a little dark when she heard Er Dongsheng's statement on the other end of the phone.

In this way, she and Ji Yun will be separated for a long time.

"It's okay, I support you." Wan Qian smiled and said comfortingly.

Ji Yun's heart felt warm, and he stretched out his hand to squeeze her palm.

"Director Er, I have no problem here."

Er Dongsheng said: "Let me give you a vaccination first. This drama mainly tells the life of a group of neon Chinese laborers. The story may be a bit bloody and violent. I will try not to make these plots too explicit, but I will not Guaranteed to pass the trial in the Mainland.”

Speaking of this, Ji Yun also confirmed the name of the play.

"Shinjuku Incident"

It is said to be a masterpiece that should not be buried by Big Brother Cheng.

According to the original trajectory, this film was indeed not released in China.

The role he played in it should be Ajie.

A stunned young man who is slowly turning black.

The first half is harmless to humans and animals, and their temperament changes drastically after being involved in a violent incident.

But this transformation makes the character look a little pathetic.

It can be regarded as half a villain.

Ji Yun's psychological endurance is pretty good now, a half-villain is also a half-positive character in a sense, he can accept it!

"It's okay, Director Er, there's nothing wrong with me."

This film can actually pass the review, as long as the violent and bloody elements in it are deleted.

But in fact, Er Dongsheng didn't submit it to the country for trial at all. He didn't want to make the film incomplete through deletion.

Just like the big guy who translated "Big Man with Great Wisdom" in the mainland, it entered the domestic theaters after being deleted, attracting a lot of abuse.

In fact, this film won many awards at that time, and the quality itself is quite good.

"Don't worry, I'll ask them to send you the notebook, and you can think about it before calling me back."

Er Dongsheng is very optimistic about Ji Yun, but the number of domestic film circles is different from that of Xiangjiang. Movies that cannot be shown on the big screen are generally not recognized by the mainland.

Just like a group of award-winning directors who have won countless awards in the West, there is no domestic wave.

He didn't want Ji Yun to waste time because of a movie that couldn't be released.

Although there is Xiao Bingbing, a mainlander, in this drama, her situation is different from Ji Yun's.

In addition to this drama, she also took part in "October Besieged City", making it clear that she wanted to get on the line of Xiangjiang.

"Okay, then I'll think about it."
