Chapter 80 The Copyright of the Condor Shooting Films and Television
After Lu Li read the book review post sent by Liu Xiaowen and some of the replies below, he opened a single chapter titled "Talk about Lu Li's plan":
Just now the beauty leader Mosquito asked me if I would write novels in the future, and I said why not? Then I found out that Mosquito asked this question because of a post in the book review section, and I later read this book review.
After reading this, Lu Li is honored that so many readers have always cared about me, and I am very touched. Especially during this scolding battle with the hero, many readers have not been shaken, and some fans even shed tears. Lu Li really
Thank you very much for everyone's support.
As for Lu Li being too busy to write novels in the future, there is absolutely no need to worry about this, because I will continue to write novels no matter what. Setting up Farewell Entertainment Company has been a plan of mine for a long time, and the same goes for entering the entertainment industry. Lu Li hopes to not only
I can write novels that everyone will like, and I also hope to write music, film and television works that everyone will like.
I'm not good at company management, so I'll leave it to someone special, so I won't spend much time on it. I'm also very inspired and won't spend too much time writing songs. The main reason why "Gong Xi Fa Cai" took so long to complete is
The company currently has insufficient staff, so don't worry about my time.
Of course, updates will definitely be affected to a certain extent. What Lu Li can assure everyone is that updates will continue.
Finally, Lu Li would like to say thank you to all the friends who support Lu Li. I hope you will continue to support me. Lu Li will not let you down. In addition, I have decided to sell the film and television rights of one of the novels. Maybe a TV series will be available to you soon.
See you soon, so stay tuned.
Many book friends who read this single chapter were relieved, because Lu Li has a reputation in the literary world as one who always keeps his word. Since Lu Li said he would continue writing, he will definitely continue. Then the book fans started talking about it.
, guess which work will be filmed into a TV series first.
"I guess it should be "Fantasy City". This is Lu Lida's first work, so it's of extraordinary significance." Farewell, bid farewell.
"I guess it's The Condor, my favorite novel." Mosquito.
"Although you are the leader, my favorite is "Dragon". Please film "Dragon"." Hongyan.
"Well, actually, for me, as long as the director and screenwriter don't ruin Lu Lida's novel, any movie will be fine." Silence is the best.
"I also agree with Silence. These directors have ruined quite a few novels."
…
Lu Li ignored the discussion among his book friends. After posting the single chapter, he continued to code and save the manuscript. Since he decided to film a TV series, he and Jiang You would definitely join the crew to study. This was also the condition for giving up the rights to film and television adaptations.
1. So it is very necessary to save more manuscripts now.
Early the next morning, Lu Li rushed to the company and took out his mobile phone to make a call.
"Hey, Lu Li, I've contacted you now. How about selling the film and television rights of "The Condor"?" As soon as the call was connected, Lu Li heard an urgent voice coming from the other side.
"Hehe, Brother Zhuang, you are too anxious to eat hot tofu." Lu Li laughed when he heard what the other party said.
Lu Li's call was to Zhuang Yongping, the project director of Huahai Rentang Film Production Company, who was also called Brother Zhuang on Lu Li's phone.
After the publication of "The Condor Shooting", many readers have increased, and it has a very broad readership base in China. Rentang Films has contacted Lu Li several times in the past year, hoping to buy the film and television adaptation rights of "The Condor Shooting", but they were unable to do so.
Was declined by Lu Li.
In the past few years, not only "The Condor", but also the film and television rights of Lu Li's other novels have received purchase intentions from many film and television companies. Among them, "The Condor" is the most popular. Not only Rentang Film and Television Production Company, but also other
Several film and television companies were also interested in purchasing it, but Lu Li refused to agree.
After comparing these two days, Lu Li finally chose Huahai's Rentang Film Production Company, and then called Zhuang Yongping.
Rentang Film started out as a costume idol drama, targeting young audiences as its main audience. It was precisely because of this that Lu Li chose this company in the end.
After Lu Li thought for a long time in the past two days, he thought it would be better to film "The Condor" first. Because among all the novels that have been updated, "The Condor" has the largest number of readers, and filming "The Condor" can get the largest audience.
The person responsible for contacting Lu Li at Rentang Film was project director Zhuang Yongping.
"Hey, I can't help but be in a hurry. The boss has assigned me this task for so long and I still haven't finished it. If there is no progress, I will probably have to pack up and leave." After hearing Lu Li's words, Zhuang Yongping complained.
Lu Li naturally didn't believe it when he heard this, but he still said: "There is still such a thing. Since Brother Zhuang has said so, it would be unreasonable for me not to let go. Let's find a time to talk.
Let’s see if we can determine the film and television copyright issue of “The Condor Shooting”.”
"Okay, I'm free at any time." Zhuang Yongping was overjoyed when he heard Lu Li's words. It seemed that Lu Li meant to sell the film and television rights of "The Condor".
"Okay, then I will wait for you in Huaqing. Just give me a call when you arrive." Lu Li agreed with Zhuang Yongping and hung up the phone.
Seeing Jiang You looking bored in the office, Lu Li was a little speechless. After calling him over, he said, "Rentang Film will come to discuss the film and television rights of "The Condor" soon. Be prepared. You may join the crew at any time to study."
"Really? That's great!" After hearing what Lu Li said, Jiang You was so excited that he shouted loudly, attracting the attention of everyone in the office.
Lu Li glanced at Jiang You speechlessly, wondering how someone like this would become a director in the future.
Zhuang Yongping didn't keep Lu Li waiting. He flew to Huaqing the next day and called Lu Li.
After Lu Li made an appointment with Zhuang Yongping at the meeting place, he called Jiang You and took a taxi to the agreed place.
In a teahouse, Lu Li and Jiang You were sitting on one side. Sitting across from them was a middle-aged man in formal attire who was nearly forty years old.
"You are brother Lu Li, you are indeed young and promising." Zhuang Yongping looked at Lu Li and said enthusiastically.
"Brother Zhuang, what you said is very flattering. Come on, let me introduce you to you. This is Jiang You, my high school classmate who studies directing." After Lu Li greeted Zhuang Yongping, he introduced Jiang You.
"So you are Jiang You, whose name I have admired for a long time." Unexpectedly, Zhuang Yongping shook hands with Jiang You warmly after hearing Jiang You's name, as if he knew him.
Jiang You was also very confused. He didn't know Zhuang Yongping from Tang Movie: "Why, Mr. Zhuang knows me?"
Hearing Jiang You's words, Zhuang Yongping smiled and said: "How can I not know you? You are a close disciple of Professor Xiong Zheng. I have long wanted to meet you in person."
Lu Li finally understood after hearing this. It seemed that Jiang You's teacher had quite a reputation.
After the introduction, the three of them sat down and started discussing.
"Brother Lu Li, please see that our company has given a very generous price for the copyright of "The Condor", please consider it again," Zhuang Yongping said.
"I know the price you offered is very generous, but I have a few conditions. As long as Rentang Films can agree, the film and television copyright of "The Condor" belongs to Rentang Films," Lu Li said.
"What conditions, please tell me first." Zhuang Yongping frowned when he heard that Lu Li still had conditions.
"First of all, the TV series "The Condor" must be written by me; secondly, Jiang You and I have to learn from the director in the name of assistant directors; finally, after the TV series "The Condor" is officially approved, I hope to become part of the investor's investment
Funds. If these three conditions are met, I will sell you the film and television rights of "The Condor"."
After hearing Lu Li's three conditions, Zhuang Yongping did not agree immediately. Although it was not a big deal for Lu Li to agree to these three conditions, he still had to ask his boss what he meant.
"Sorry, brother Lu Li, I can't make the decision on this matter. I'll go make a call first."
Lu Li naturally had no objection, and Zhuang Yongping walked out of the private room, probably to make a phone call.
After Zhuang Yongping went out, Jiang Youcai asked: "Lizi, I can understand you being the screenwriter. After all, you are the original author, but what will happen if you become the assistant director?"
Hearing this question, Lu Li just smiled slightly: "I'm suddenly very interested in directors. I want to study, okay?"
"Uh, okay, why not? I'm just worried that you have too many things to do." Jiang You said after hearing this. Indeed, Lu Li not only has to write novels, he probably won't let go of writing songs, and now he also has to write for "The Condor Shooting"
The script actually had to come to the director to have a hand in it. Jiang You didn't know how Lu Li's brain was used.
"It's okay, I'm just having fun." Lu Li didn't tell the truth. Of course he was not just playing for fun. He didn't know how long he wanted to be a director, but it was just not that easy to be a director. Having only learned theoretical knowledge in his previous life, he couldn't wait.
I thought about on-site learning, but I just didn’t have the opportunity. Now that I have such an opportunity, I will naturally not let it go, so as to lay the foundation for myself to actually control the game in the future.
Not long after Lu Li finished speaking, Zhuang Yongping returned to the private room and said with a smile, "No problem. Once the script is written, we can sign the contract and officially start the project."
"Okay, let's have a pleasant cooperation." Lu Li also smiled when he heard this, stood up and shook hands with Zhuang Yongping.
Zhuang Yongping stayed in Huaqing for one day and then rushed back to Huahai.
Lu Li was currently thinking about which version of the script to write. In Lu Li's mind, there were many versions of the script for "The Condor Shooting", including version 83, version 94, version 03, and version 08.
In the end, Lu Li chose the most praised 83 version. This version is the most classic in comparison. Its shortcomings are mainly poor martial arts effects and poor shooting skills, but it doesn't matter. I believe Rentang Film has the ability to shoot this well.
movie.
After deciding, Lu Li would do other things like practicing his voice every day, including coding and transferring the scripts in his mind.
And while Lu Li was busy, the New Year was quietly approaching.
Chapter completed!
