What should I do if the system forces me to copy books?

Hearing He Hua's words, the expression on Gu Wan'er's face did not change at all. The second generation raised from a family like theirs did not have that kind of brain damage in the true sense. After her eyes passed He Huade, she continued calmly. Said: "Do you all support He Hua's statement? Although "Sword Lai" is indeed only tens of thousands of words, but you must know that its author is a great Internet writer, Zhichun Zhigang. If you haven't read it, you may not know him How terrifying is the influence in the circle, if the copyright of such a novel is bought, the content of millions of words is enough for us to make a series."

Chapter 355 The One-Man Show

"I agree that it can be bought into a series, but what about the budget of the project? This is not a third-rate urban drama or a court drama that can be filmed by just finding a court scene in Hengdian with actors in place, even if we don't know anything about the entertainment industry. , and I also know that if I want to make this "Sword Come" decent, the special effects will not be a small amount of money!"

Gently and rhythmically tapping the table with his index finger has almost become He Hua's signature movement at work. He believes that such a rhythmic movement can make him think more sharply when thinking about problems, and at the same time, the rhythmic The sound of "dong dong" is like knocking in someone else's new house, which invisibly brings urgent pressure to the opponent.

Sitting next to He Hua, the chubby Zhao Ziyun pretended to flip through the two documents in his hand, and also shook his head endlessly: "If it is said to be tens of millions, each of us will provide some pocket money to play with you, Wan'er." It's not a problem. But... the budget of the project in the document alone is above [-] million. Although we all have money in our family, if we want to take out such a sum, the elders in the family must nod and agree. You will definitely not be able to pass this project, with such a large investment budget, but only an unknown rate of return."

No matter what He Hua or Zhao Ziyun said, they almost touched the hearts of everyone present except Gu Wan'er, and they couldn't help but subconsciously nod after hearing the words.

Don't look at them all being silent, but on this occasion and at this time, isn't being silent the best way to express your attitude?

"I agree with Brother Hua's point of view. If the group of us really wants to form a partnership to do business, I think it's better to be more prudent when the company is still in the testing stage. First look for some small-cost scripts with a small investment. Take a look, and try to touch this top-level IP after you have accumulated enough experience!"

"I just bought a Lamborghini last week, and I'm a little short on pocket money."

"Yes, yes, Wan'er. It's not that we don't support you, but it's like what's said in the document. I'm afraid we can't make up such a large sum of money with only a few of us. I don't know whether to pay or not." It doesn't matter, but you can't turn a work you like so much into a bad movie because of insufficient funds."

"..."

There are a total of eight people in the entire conference room, almost all of whom are Gu Wan'er's close and relatively close friends. The most important thing is the old saying, it's not that a group of people don't enter a family, and naturally they don't have similar backgrounds. Just play less than one go.If two people with a big gap are together, you can imagine that one person is talking about whether to buy a Lamborghini or a Koenigsegg, while the other person is full of thoughts about whether to buy a Yadea or a Sanyang .

Regrettably--

Gu Wan'er thought she was a like-minded friend, when she launched an investment project for the first time, no one agreed to buy the film and television copyright of "Sword Come" and cast it for filming.

It seemed that only He Hua and Zhao Ziyun clearly expressed their unfavorable thoughts, but the others chose to remain silent and did not express their support, which means they opposed it.

"Starting a company and entering the entertainment circle" They still expressed that they can participate in this matter, but no one wants to put all their eggs in the same basket, not to mention that they don't have a few eggs in their hands to squander and take risks .Rather than risking all-in and giving it all, it’s better to buy a few cheap scripts, find some wandering stars who are still a bit famous, and then try it a few more times.

As long as a TV series that bursts the screen is successfully filmed, all the investment is worth it!

Buying the top IP film and television copyrights of the top Internet writers, even those who don't know the inside story of the Internet literature circle, know that the price must start at seven figures.This is something that can’t be helped, the average film and television copyright of an author is at least six figures, and the top masters must be more expensive, isn’t this a matter of common sense.

In fact, finding those gold-medal screenwriters to order scripts costs about the same price, and under the same circumstances, buying the film and television copyright of the works of the great gods can also attract a large number of readers and fans of the original works, which is very cost-effective no matter how you look at it.The point that really makes the people here hesitate and even resolutely oppose is——

"The Sword Comes" is just a work with less than [-] words!

It is undoubtedly a shocking gamble to choose such a seedling among the seedlings!

Gu Wan'er sat in the middle without saying a word, her pretty eyebrows were slightly frowned, the development of the matter was too different from what she imagined, but she didn't intend to take this opportunity.

Of course, she is not the kind of iron baby who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back. Facing the questions they asked, she quickly changed her mind in her mind, and carefully chose her words: "I understand your concerns, but risks and opportunities coexist. Everyone knows the truth. "Sword Lai" has few words and has not been released to prove its value, but from another perspective, isn't this our opportunity? After the book is officially released, the results are rising steadily, don't you guys? Do you think it is still possible to win its film and television copyright at the current price?"

For others, this is a big gamble, but for Gu Wan'er who has read all of Zhichun Zhigang's works, it may be more accurate to describe it as "grabbing this great opportunity in front of everyone" Be more specific.

"It's true to say so, but I still think it's not proportional to the return on investment."

"As long as we think about it, don't we have potential investment projects? It just depends on whether we want to rely on our family."

"I still have that opinion, it's too expensive!"

He Hua's expressionless face made it impossible to see his true thoughts: "If Wan'er, you really want to set foot in the entertainment industry, I know that in the second half of the year Director Kaige will have a plan to shoot a New Year's film, and I can find a way to help You want to get an investment opportunity."

It seemed that the conversation couldn't come to an end, no one could convince anyone, the scene froze all of a sudden...

Seeing that there was nothing to be done, Gu Wan'er took a deep breath and said calmly: "Since that's the case, I'll find a way to invest in this project myself. It seems that everyone doesn't have much interest in this company, so let's do it like this."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay when they heard the words, and no one wanted to speak again.

The others didn't know how to speak up, and in the end they had no choice but to hope that He Hua, who was the most assertive and mature among them, cast their eyes on him, and he didn't disappoint everyone. Still as indifferent as ever, his brows were inadvertently frowned slightly: "Wan'er, are you sure you want to do this? I know this money is nothing to uncle, but to you, once this investment If you fail, life will not be so easy in three to five years, you should think about it!"

Chapter 356 Unexpected Encounter

Snapped--

Gu Wan'er stood up suddenly from her seat, put her hands on the conference table, changed her previous indifference, her expression became sharper, after looking around at everyone present, it was more like announcing an established fact, and said : "I am sure of the influence of the four people 'Zhi Chun Zhi Gang' on the Internet literary world, and I also believe in the potential of the book "Sword Come"! Buying this book now before it becomes a big hit to prove yourself is definitely better than waiting later It’s much more cost-effective to buy. Take ten thousand steps back, in the future, when “Sword Come” becomes popular, what else can we do? Those who want to cooperate with it are probably at the level of China Entertainment and Huace The behemoth!"

"That's how it is." He Hua shook his head and said nothing more.

In fact, neither side is right or wrong in this matter, it's just that they have different views on things.

It can be said that the meeting broke up in such an anticlimactic manner. In the end, only Zhao Ziyun, the chubby guy who admitted that he was not very optimistic about the project, stayed.

"Silly girl~ are you really going to pay for this investment yourself to make this show? It's not an impulsive act on the spur of the moment or a hothead. You must know that such an impulsive price is a bit traumatic for us. "Others thought that He Hua was the smartest among them, and He Hua was the one who made up most of the decisions on weekdays, but he was the one who really kept his wisdom hidden.

The most important thing is that Zhao Ziyun is the same as Zhao Zilong, the famous historical general whose name differs by only one letter.

Others don't know that the person in this circle who really has the best relationship with Gu Wan'er is not He Hua, who has the closest family background and almost grew up together since childhood, but Zhao Ziyun, a simple and honest little chubby guy who looks ugly. This point comes from the relationship between the two of them. The endearing address is evident.

When Gu Wan'er heard Zhao Ziyun calling herself that, she rolled her beautiful eyes, and said angrily, "Am I really planning to see you? Also... I warn you, Fatty Zhao, when there are people If you dare to call me a silly girl, see if I don't kill you!"

"Hee hee~ It's not that there are no other people here. You just tell me something heartfelt, what do you think? There is one thing that I can't figure out anyway. If you appreciate or believe this The author of the web novel called Zhichun Zhigang, there is a ready-made "Fighting Knife in the Snow" and don't choose it, why go to choose the new book "Sword Come"? I believe that if you told everyone just now to invest in "Fighting Sword in the Snow" "If this book is made into a TV series, it will not be unanimously opposed." Everyone will have their own small movements when thinking about problems, and the chubby Zhao Ziyun always squints his small eyes when thinking about problems. Form a thin slit, how to look like Maitreya Buddha.

"I..." Gu Wan'er was about to explain the reason.

"What do you think if I play Chu Lushan like this?"

As soon as these words came out, the expression on her face should be as surprised as she was, the surprise expression could not be hidden in her beautiful eyeballs, and she couldn't help but look up and down carefully at the fat man in front of her, a little suspicious that it was still It wasn't whether the Zhao Pangpang I knew who was either eating or looking for the way to eat had been possessed by someone through time travel.

"Pangpang Zhao, do you still remember the embarrassing thing you did in front of the whole class when you were 12 years old? Now I suspect that you were replaced by someone else, not the Pangpang Zhao I knew. " Gu Wan'er said seriously.

"Go, go! Don't tell me I can't read online novels in your eyes? Let me tell you, I even rewarded Xue Zhong with a lord. I have to say that this book is really attractive, and I keep reading it. A man who has been around for a week!" When Zhao Ziyun talked about how proud he was when he watched Knife in the Snow for a week in a row, "Don't change the subject, tell me, do I look like this? Like the Lu Qiuer in the book? Otherwise, we should choose "Snow Fighter", so I have a reason to go in and play this role, and maybe I can become famous because of it."

"A hit is a hit, but I guess your shot is related to an unknown celebrity." Gu Wan'er snorted coldly after finishing speaking, but then again, she Don't worry about Zhao Ziyun, this guy is a typical type with evil intentions but no guts. If there are those shameless people who post up for Bo superiors, the first reaction is probably to push him away.

"Wan'er is the one who knows me!"

"10%"

After a pause, Zhao Ziyun said the ratio very seriously in the next second, and then continued to say calmly: "Others don't know, but I believe your vision! I want to own 10% of your company, how much capital injection do I need?" No problem!"

"Have eyesight!"

"Each each other!"

—

A new company named Wanxing Entertainment Company was quietly established in Shanghai, the magic city. Just like countless companies are established all over the country every day, no one pays attention to it at all, but the establishment capital of this company is as high as 3000 million, which is unexpected. As for the shareholders, there are only two names, Gu Wan'er and Zhao Ziyun.

A week is not long, nor is it short.

It was enough for Gu Wan'er to use this time to complete a lot of preparations, especially to successfully build an entertainment company from scratch in such a short period of time.It is undeniable that there is also a factor of her family power behind her to help. She is not a fool, so she will not be like those lemon essences on the Internet who say that she does not rely on her parents or her family. It's really stupid not to make good use of her advantages!

Someone needs someone!

Want money and have money!

In a week, Wanxing Entertainment Company has completed what others may not be able to complete in three to five years. They have strong strength in both software and hardware. The only thing they lack now is an opportunity to prove their strength. up.

And this opportunity, at the first company-wide staff meeting, Gu Wan'er, as the chairman, had already told everyone - the company's first plan!

The interview team with Zhichun Zhigang, the author of "Sword Come" was also freshly released at the meeting. The team will be led by the boss Gu Waner, a full-time legal staff and an old man who has been familiar with the entertainment industry for 30 years. The last two belonged to assistants and secretaries, a small team of four went to Yanjing.

When the group of them set off from Shanghai one day earlier than the agreed time.

Coincidentally, at the same time, Lin Meng also set off from Shanghai with two of his men.

The two small teams that met unexpectedly on the same flight from Shanghai to Yanjing didn't pay much attention to each other, but what they didn't know was...

In the upcoming trip to Yanjing, the two sides will become opponents who will directly confront each other on the negotiating table!

Chapter 357 The Three Scenarios

"Are you sure it's necessary?"

"I'm sure!"

Lin Meng looked at the overly young student sitting across from her with burning eyes, her tone was very firm and unquestionable, and the company improvement and development plan that she had worked so hard to prepare for three or four days and nights was also handed over at this time. In the hands of Li Chungang.

With Li Chungang's perverted memory, which is still able to remember ten lines at a glance, it took less than half an hour to read this plan. There are still some, especially some of the limitations and disadvantages of the current Wensiquanyong studio described in it, all of which belong to the place that makes people feel reasonable at a glance!

"Sure enough, there are advantages and disadvantages, and Lao Luo and I really thought things a little too simply..." He was calm on the surface, but he thought to himself in his heart.

"Since you think it is necessary, then go ahead and do it. I will tell him about Lao Luo, as long as it is in a good direction, I believe he will not object! And my eldest nephew is not this month I'm afraid the baby will be born next month, and Lao Luo probably won't have time to take care of him, so I'll leave all the company affairs to you, and I trust you!"

In fact, besides believing in Lin Meng, Li Chungang has no other choice. Compared with spending a lot of money to find a headhunting company to find a new leader, it is better to choose the ready-made Lin Meng. At least she Anyway, he can be regarded as an old man who has worked for a period of time, and he is also an alumnus of his own, so he naturally has a higher degree of friendliness than others.

"I will prove it to you with actions! Boss."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't have to be so serious~" Li Chungang scratched the back of his head. He was not used to being stared at so solemnly and called the boss. Lin Meng had all the company's affairs to deal with him. I am still very relieved, because the existence of the plan proves that her idea is not a temporary idea but has been prepared in advance. Now that she has prepared, there is nothing to worry about, not to mention that she and Luo Wen are the two largest shareholders. Supporting him behind the scenes.

After the matter was settled, he thought about changing the subject for a while and said, "As for the plan of filming "Sword Come" with the Sun Moon Universe, what is the result of your discussions, please tell me."

"Xiaoxiao, file."

"Sister Meng, here it is."

After hearing the words, Xiaoxiao, who had always been silent like a transparent person, took out a document she had prepared a long time ago from the briefcase she was carrying, handed it to Lin Meng, and Lin Meng turned it around again. The good direction was placed in front of Li Chungang, and he was about to open the file and want to turn to the page of the cooperation plan they discussed for him to watch...

Snapped--

Li Chungang pressed down on the plan of the document, shook his head and said: "I won't read the document, you can simply tell me about it. This time the negotiation with the other party will be led by you, the future general manager of the company, and I will follow In the past, I will meet my number one fan, and by the way, I would like to thank him in person for the support of the two Yimeng rewards."

"Okay." Lin Meng nodded and no longer insisted, but said in a serious voice: "The specific cooperation method is still the same as we discussed before, adopting a method of sharing and cooperation with the other party based on the film and television copyright of "Sword Lay".

Depending on the situation, we have prepared three sets of plans: ①We simply use the film and television copyright of "Sword Come" to cooperate with the other party in filming TV dramas, and the required share ratio will be between 30% and 35%; ②In the first On the basis of the original plan, we will add you, the boss, to adapt the script yourself as a bargaining chip, and the required share ratio will be increased to between 35% and 40%; ③If the other party accepts cash investment, we can continue to invest cash to obtain a greater share Proportion.Of course, no matter which of the above-mentioned plans, we will require the other party to invest no less than 1.5 million in the production of this TV series, and to ensure that the TV series invests in special effects, etc..."

After listening, Li Chungang subconsciously took a few sips of the milk tea placed in front of him on the table to cover up his astonishment.When he left this matter to Lin Meng and the others to prepare, he was not completely idle in his spare time. Instead, he inquired a little through Dong Sicheng, Brilliance and others to understand the general entertainment cooperation methods and share ratios. .

Like Dong Sicheng told him, taking the top domestic screenwriters as an example, if the scripts they write cooperate with film and television companies, first of all, they will have a huge signing fee, which is also reflected in the follow-up of this drama. The promotion will use the name of the gold medal screenwriter, and then the share ratio for co-production with the film and television company will be around 10%-15%.

The key point is that "the top screenwriters" will be treated like this.

So after inquiring about the news from several people, he originally had the idea in his mind that the price of the film and television copyright of "Sword Lay" is about 4000-4500 million yuan, and the share ratio for cooperation is about 20%.After Wucheng listened to the three proposals given by Lin Meng, he didn't know whether he was too conservative or didn't understand the current market price.

In particular, the minimum 30% sharing ratio is already far exceeding the entertainment industry's rules for filming TV dramas!Not to mention that she also asked people to spend no less than 1.5 million in total investment in the filming of this TV series. If the other party really agrees, I am afraid that this "Sword Come" will become the one with the largest investment in recent years. A TV series adapted from a web novel.

At that time, no matter what the content is, the audience will be attracted enough just by hearing the gimmick of "a total investment of 1.5 million yuan". If so much money is spent, even the worst script will be able to gather a large number of big names. There is a strong and invincible star lineup, not to mention that the names of "Sword Come" will probably be famous by then, and they will bring a large part of their reader traffic.

cough~

How daring people are, how prolific the land is!

Li Chungang will not expose himself, no matter what he thought before, but he has only one idea now, that is, Lin Meng and his idea are similar, he nodded and said in affirmation: "Yes, I understand It’s almost the same, just follow your plan. Personally, the second plan is the best, because I’m a little worried about handing over the adaptation to other people. What if it’s changed beyond recognition by me? "

"Okay. Besides that, boss, do you have any other demands?"

"If you want to ask...there are actually some things you have to say, but I may go to the crew to find some stars to sign or something."

"Hahaha! Junior, you are so cute~"

Lin Meng couldn't hold back her laughter all of a sudden. Li Chungang had always given her the impression that she had a sense of maturity not inferior to this age group, but she didn't expect to have such a young and cute side.

Chapter 358

Silver Sea Clubhouse.

This is a large club located somewhere in Wangfujing, Yanjing. It covers all the requirements for a person's basic necessities of life, food, housing and transportation. The most important thing is that the club adopts a high-end luxury route and adopts a membership system.In other words, if you are not a member of this club or you are accompanied by a member, you cannot even enter the gate!

The minimum entry threshold for members is a precharge of 60 yuan.

When I came to this place with Gu Bei for the first time, after hearing Gu Bei mention the membership system here, Li Chungang, who was like grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden for the first time, couldn't help but be surprised, and kept saying in a low voice. This is not making money anymore, it is simply stealing money.

Especially after hearing that the daily consumption here is as high as six or seven figures, he was so scared that he subconsciously wanted to turn around and go out, but Gu Bei quickly stopped him and ensured that all consumption would be counted to his account It was only then that Li Chungang was stabilized.

If you want to buy something, you just need to choose it on a small ipad, and after you choose it, someone will send it to you in the first time;

All the food you eat is a menu specially customized for you by a special chef according to your personal taste. The ingredients used are all the freshest and top-notch, ensuring that each customer's menu is not consistent;

The standard of the place to live is directly in accordance with the standard of the presidential suite of an international five-star hotel, and then it is designed and built by a well-known designer, and it is not a problem to even create a themed suite according to the customer's requirements;

……

In just over two hours, when he stepped out of the gate of the clubhouse, Li Chungang said——

Really fragrant!

It is indeed reasonable for people to be able to resolutely implement their own membership system in Yanjing, and not only stand firm for so many years, but also continue to grow bigger and stronger.For those truly rich people, they don't care how much money they spend, but whether the money spent is worth it or not. Obviously, the services they consume and enjoy in the Yinhai clubhouse make these people think it's worth it.

The reason why he chose this place as the place to interview with Sun Moon Qiankun and the others was that Li Chungang mainly wanted to show his own strength in the upcoming negotiations, and let the other party know that they are not the only ones who are rich and not bad at money. He is too!Although this membership card was temporarily borrowed from Gu Bei, who would know if he didn't tell him.
