Zhou Jing was a little angry and a little ridiculous.

What makes people angry is that people in Xiangjiang are too confident.

I think mainland authors will definitely agree as long as they hear that the director of Xiangjiang is buying the copyright.

The funny thing is that this group of people still don’t know that the author of these two books is Xu Xuan.

Not to mention that Xu Xuan has no plans to sell the copyright, even if he does, he probably won't sell it to Hengchang Entertainment.

Zhou Jing tried her best to keep her tone gentle: "Director Liu, please sit down first. Should we discuss this matter again..."

"Hi." Liu Zetian interrupted Zhou Jing directly, took out two contracts from the lawyer and put them on the table. "We have drafted the contracts, but there is something we need to discuss with the author. What? Is the author not here? ?”

Zhou Jing was speechless, how could Xu Xuan come?

Liu Zetian pretended to be angry and joked: "Editor Zhou, this is your problem. How could the original author not be present in this situation? This is too unprofessional, but your Yanhuang Publishing House supports new authors, so I don't understand These things are excusable, and I still want to discuss with the original author to modify the ending of Baguio."

Zhou Jing opened her mouth.

Modify the ending of Baguio?

Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?

All readers and fans came to the publishing house to protest about this matter, but Xu Xuan didn't agree. You want to modify Baguio's ending with just one sentence?

No, you haven't agreed to sell the copyright yet. Why is this person so sure? Who gave him the courage?

Zhou Jing couldn't help but think of Yu Youchen, her mouth curved, and she suppressed a smile and said: "Director Liu, I'm sorry, maybe I didn't explain this clearly yesterday. Yesterday I said that I would contact the author of the original work and ask him about it. It just means..." Zhou Jing said, "The original author has no plans to sell the adaptation rights in the near future, so..."

Liu Zetian's smile solidified.

He looked at Zhou Jing a little strangely: "Editor-in-Chief Zhou, didn't you tell the original author that Hengchang Entertainment wanted to purchase the copyright?"

Before Zhou Jing could continue speaking, Liu Zetian said: "It seems that we have cooperated twice, right? Although both were handed over to your relevant department managers, we also seem to have a good basis for cooperation. Why did this time by Editor-in-Chief Zhou discussed it in person but there were obstacles?"

Zhou Jing was also crying and laughing. How could she explain such a thing?

Although she is the editor-in-chief of Yanhuang Publishing House, it is nothing more than that. Yanhuang Publishing House is not a giant like Huaxia Publishing House. Naturally, she does not have the courage to go against Hengchang Entertainment. Therefore, the previous two contract changes were negotiated very smoothly. This time is different, this time it is Xu Xuan, the most ruthless person in Hengchang Entertainment.

Zhou Jing organized her language and said: "The author of the original work said that the copyright may not be sold within the next year, and the other party is not short of money now, so, Director Liu, I'm sorry, there is nothing I can do about this matter, as you know, In such matters, the decision-making power rests with the author.”

Liu Zetian also knew that if the author disagreed, Yanhuang Publishing House could not do anything.

Therefore, he waved his hand and said: "Do you have the author's phone number? Or you can just ask him to come for an interview. Doesn't he know how influential his novels will be if they are turned into TV series and movies? How can any author refuse? Such a good thing?"

Theoretically, no novelist would reject such a good adaptation.

Not only can it expand the influence of the original author, but it also has a very meaningful promotion effect on the original author's next novel.

Therefore, it is said that the director of Xiangjiang has taken a fancy to a certain novel. Even if a third-rate director from the Mainland has taken a fancy to a certain novel, the original author will be very active in cooperating with it.

Liu Zetian doesn't believe that the author of "Zhu Xian" couldn't think of this level.

But after all, Liu Zetian is not a young man like Chang Haotian. After thinking about it, he understood that new pioneering novels such as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "Zhu Xian" cannot be treated as new authors in terms of popularity and influence.

In addition to Hengchang Entertainment, I am afraid that many domestic directors are eyeing the adaptation rights of these two novels.

Therefore, Liu Zetian knew that the contract drafted before might need to be changed, and the price would probably have to meet the market price.

Therefore, Liu Zetian said: "Editor Zhou, we can easily discuss the price. Also, whether it is the change of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" or "Zhu Xian", we will use a large number of Xiangjiang artists. Editor Zhou should be able to understand what this means. Bar?"

The extensive use of Xiangjiang artists means that the two changed works will be very popular. Fans of the original works, coupled with a large number of Xiangjiang superstars, will bring great popularity and status to the original authors.

Zhou Jing felt helpless. The more you said this, the less likely he was to sell it to you.

She thought about it and finally shook her head. Without revealing Xu Xuan's identity, the only excuse Zhou Jing could think of was that the original author would not sell it.

Liu Zetian frowned: "Give me the author's contact information, and I will talk to him personally."

Zhou Jing smiled bitterly, then had a flash of inspiration and said, "The author of the original book went to Eagle Country and is not in the country. I don't have his contact information now."

Liu Zetian narrowed his eyes when he heard this: "Editor Zhou, you are deliberately prevaricating me..."

"No, no, the author of the original work is really not in the country. It seems that he went to Eagle Country to negotiate the copyright."

laugh!

Liu Zetian couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Editor Zhou, why don't you find a better excuse? Go to Eagle Country to discuss copyright for Chinese novels? In addition to classics, will foreigners like our novels?"

In fact, people on the Internet have begun to talk about the author of "Zhu Xian".

Zhou Jing briefly mentioned it to Xu Xuan, but Xu Xuan didn't pay attention because the incident itself was within Xu Xuan's expectation.

When I first chose my pen name, it was called Qiao Su in Chinese, and in English it was just the pinyin of Qiao Su, qiaosu. This in itself meant that Xu Xuan wanted to combine the two pen names.

So some people on the Internet are discussing that the author of "Jurassic Park" and the domestic author of "Zhu Xian" seem to have the same pen name?

Moreover, the pinyin form of the pseudonym qiaosu does not have a specific word in English.

Therefore, many people are speculating whether the two people are the same person?

But because "Jurassic Park" is so popular in Eagle Country, and domestic netizens instinctively believe that it is impossible for a Chinese author to write a novel in Eagle Country to be so popular, not many people are talking about this matter.

Preconceived ideas prevent many domestic netizens from imagining that a Chinese novel would be popular in the Eagle Country. In addition, there are so many netizens who worship foreigners and favor foreigners. If this topic is discussed, the author of "Zhu Xian" will definitely be ridiculed. Therefore, these cute Fans just discussed it privately, but it didn't cause much impact.

Zhou Jing seemed to understand Xu Xuan's thoughts, so at this time, revealing this identity and rejecting the other party seemed to be the best reason.

Therefore, Zhou Jing said cryptically: "To tell you the truth, it is true. I have indeed gone to Eagle Country to discuss the film adaptation rights."

Liu Zetian looked at Zhou Jing dubiously, as if to say, are you serious?

Then Zhou Jing took out a pure English copy of "Jurassic Park" and handed it to Liu Zetian.

Liu Zetian also knew about this popular novel in Eagle Country, but he was surprised why Zhou Jing handed it to him.

However, when Liu Zetian saw the big characters written on "Jurassic Park", he was immediately confused.
