What Should I Do If the System Forces Me To Copy Books?

"What do you think Mr. Liu thinks? Isn't it ridiculous to find someone who knows nothing to adapt the script for a drama that has been cast for more than 40 million yuan?"

"It's wrong to arrange and talk about the company's leadership behind the scenes. If it gets out, you won't be able to hang out in the circle."

"I don't think there are people who can complain to you."

"Complaining is all about complaining. Put away your bad temper after I see you later, and then help him complete the script smoothly and hand it over to Mr. Liu. Do you understand!?"

"yes."

This is a scene that happened on a Mercedes-Benz driving on the road in Shanghai. The person who complained first was Zhang Ziyang, who was trained by Huace Film and Television Group. Screenwriting major.

And the one who reprimanded Zhang Ziyang was a middle-aged man. It was Huace Film and Television who established the project "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". copyright negotiations.

Behind the Mercedes-Benz is a small passenger car closely following, and the front seats are full of crew members who filmed "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" this time, director, assistant director, photography, lighting, makeup, costumes, etc... A crew needs all aspects Yes, as long as you can think of, you can find it here.

The back row has become a place for temporary storage of various luggage and props.

The people from Huace Film and Television, and Li Chungang stepped into the headquarters building of Longteng Company almost at the same time.

Because of the large number of people, it is naturally no longer suitable for entertaining in Brilliance's office. Fortunately, the company's headquarters building is tall enough. I dare not say anything else. The conference room is sufficient. Assistants have been arranged to arrange the conference room early on. In fact, There is nothing to arrange, just put bottles of water in each location.

"The exclusive film and television adaptation copyright of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is 800W"

Li Chungang has long learned from Liu E, the little princess of Huace, that Huace and Longteng have reached an agreement on the copyright price of this book. Today, the three parties sat down and there is not much nonsense. Chen Cheng has already prepared it. The contract was pushed to Li Chungang.

Next comes the pros.

The legal staff of Longteng are still old acquaintances, and it is Comrade Zhang Guanghua who was beaten in the face when he signed the copyright of the physical book "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" with Man Jinghua Publishing Company.

The last time I encountered Life Waterloo in front of the editor-in-chief Brilliance and Li Chungang, after going back,

Having learned from the painful experience, Brilliance chose him even more strictly when signing the contract this time!

"Let's see."

Zhang Guanghua and Luo Wen got together to study the contract at the same time, and communicated with each other to confirm any doubts. This is a contract related to "eight million", so they can't be treated with caution. Even though "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" was a contract with Long Teng, Luo Wen, a literary agent, was not paid a dime, so he still tried his best to check the contents of the contract for Li Chungang.

Five minutes, ten minutes, half an hour...

Learning from the carelessness of the last time, this time Zhang Guanghua read the first time and confirmed that all the terms of the contract were consistent with the agreement between the company and Huace Film and Television. None are allowed to exist!

"no problem."

Under the air conditioner at 24 degrees Celsius, Zhang Guanghua's forehead was still densely covered with beads of sweat. One can imagine how engrossed he was when he read the contract.

When Luo Wen gave the contract to Li Chungang, he nodded slightly towards Li Chungang, which meant that he didn't find any problems with the contract.

Since there is no problem, what are you waiting for.

Li Chungang started to write, and signed his name on the two copies of the contract.

After Li Chungang's signature was completed, Chen Cheng, who was sitting across from him, finally showed a happy expression on his face. After carefully putting away the contract, he took out a new contract and pushed it towards Li Chungang, mouth The previous side explained:

"This is a contract for Huace Film and Television to hire Mr. Li Chungang to personally adapt the script for "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". Mr. Li Chungang, you can read it first, and we can talk about the conditions slowly."

Zhang Ziyang was young and ignorant and couldn't help complaining a few words in the car. Chen Cheng said it was understandable. It was because the other party hadn't reached his position yet, and there were many things in the company that he didn't understand.

Being able to become the director of the crew of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" proves Chen Cheng's status in Huace Film and Television and won the trust of Mr. Liu. He knows many secrets that are not known to outsiders. Among them is why Huace Film and Television suddenly joined the network. The adaptation of literary IPs into TV dramas is not because Mr. Liu wants to open up a new market for online literary IPs for Huace Film and Television, as outsiders have sworn.

It was purely because Liu E, the little princess of Huace, came into Mr. Liu's office.

Then, as soon as Liu E left, Chen Cheng was called into the president's office. Not to mention, when he came out of the office, he had the title of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" project director on his head. Not only that, Li Chungang was invited as the screenwriter for the adaptation of the script , is also Liu E's handwriting, and the euphemistic name "Original Juicy" is more acceptable to readers and audiences!

I still remember the conversation with Mr. Liu when we were in the president's office.

"Mr. Liu, why..."

"Let's take it as an attempt and advance layout. The Internet IP market is growing day by day, and small and big miracles have been staged repeatedly. The most important thing is that the form of web adaptation is very suitable for cultivating actors."

"Mr. Liu is far-sighted!" Chen Cheng was able to figure out the joints after a little thought. The real reason why so many film and television companies are so hungry for the Internet's hot IP is to "use small to make big" and invest in low-cost to cultivate their own artist stars , as long as there is a blockbuster drama, not only can you make a lot of money, but you can also make a lot of actors in the drama popular.

"Hahaha, that's Yu Gong. In terms of private matters, it's rare for my precious daughter to ask me in person. In addition, I have already asked people to investigate the book "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". It is indeed a rare and popular Internet IP. work."

"..."

It didn't take Li Chungang a long time to look at the employment agreement, because the content was simple and straightforward, and there was a horizontal bar of _____ above the salary, obviously for the convenience of filling in the last number.

6. Party A shall complete the adaptation of the entire script within one week (seven days) after signing this contract.

13. The remuneration will be settled in one lump sum after Party B checks and accepts Party A's adaptation of the script.

"Let's not talk about the remuneration. I think if the adaptation is completed within seven days, will this time be too hasty? I believe you are also very clear. Before that, I did not adapt literary works into scripts at all. experience in this area!

What's more, I don't understand what is written in the contract that Party B, that is, your company has completed the inspection and acceptance. How can it be considered as the completion of acceptance? Is there a specific standard? It can't be that I have worked so hard to complete the adaptation, and finally you will say that you are not satisfied with the acceptance, right? "
