Chapter 30 Shao Yingxiong, your uncle

Yang Zhan is Duliang, who will be very popular in the future. This young man joined the army, which has caused some habits to be related to the army until now. For example, he was tortured by big fish and meat in his business field and had long been wide and fat, but his waist that would not bend when sitting down always gives people a very tough feeling; for example, he always keeps his face serious, which makes people look a bit like seeing a more majestic company boss at first sight, and then he thinks that this is a fat consultant in a certain agency...

This is Du Liang that Shao Yingxiong met. Some time ago, this man was looking for a publishing house with the first draft of "Bright Sword" all over the world. When the publishing editor asked about his profession, he tried his best to publish it at his own expense... Now, he has become a best-selling writer in the literary world. After Liang Jian's release, the sales volume has made many people convinced him.

Shao Yingxiong is a casual person. He doesn't know how to evaluate a novel's artistic quality, but he understands that sales are always constant; this is just like Shao Yingxiong rarely sets any artistic goals for himself. He does not intend to become a literary youth, nor does he intend to win awards at any film festival abroad with a certain film. He cares about the ratings, and the artistic quality varies from person to person. In today's era when no one has used money to buy it, it is the best criterion for judging an actor and a good or bad movie.

Don’t forget that Shao Yingxiong has seen the history of the entertainment industry. He knows that in the next few years, the ratings have become something that cannot be believed. A drama that invests millions of dollars and costs more than 700,000 yuan to buy the top ten viewers of the TV station. It’s so fake that it makes people disdain.

"Mr. Yang, I've read the book."

After Yang Zhan came to Shao Yingxiong's hotel-style apartment, he took off his down jacket and the gray shirt lined with no wrinkles at all.

"But..." Shao Yingxiong scratched his head and said: "There are many things in the novel that are not suitable for being brought to the screen. Not only does the censorship system not allow it, but many viewers may not be able to accept these things if they are brought to the screen."

Yang Zhan saw that Shao Yingxiong didn't say anything, and just waited quietly for Shao Yingxiong to finish speaking. When they first met, Yang Zhan was very restrained and rational.

"I know Mr. Yang may have doubts like this. After all, this is your work. However, we must consider why this work is put on the screen. Although this novel describes a chaotic era, the people who watch TV series are all modern people, and the aesthetics of modern people cannot be the same as that era. Just like the end of the novel "Li Yunlong committed suicide", this must not be filmed. The frustrating helplessness and the helplessness that makes people feel heart-warming..."

"Don't you dare?" When Yang Zhan said these three words, there was still no expression on his face, and he was very calm, just like an ordinary chat. But he didn't let the young hero finish speaking, which had already shown his attitude.

Shao Yingxiong shook his head and explained: "It doesn't matter whether I dare or not."

"I am also a screenwriter, Mr. Yang, you stand from my perspective... No, think about it from the perspective of an ordinary audience. If there is a TV series that can truly see a general with a distinct personality in a war era and can quickly attract you, you are conquered by this general in the TV series, worry about every military decision, smile at his jokes with his comrades around him, shocked by his farewell to his woman and his decision to take revenge regardless of orders... Such a general who left a deep impression and loved to commit suicide in the finale because of the special nature of the times, tell me, what evaluation do you give this TV series?"

"Don't talk about your thinking, give an objective evaluation with everything an ordinary audience feels."

Yang Zhan thought for a moment: “Uh…”

The reason why Yang Zhan is willing to meet Shao Yingxiong so quickly is not to have to listen to all the conditions when discussing copyright with the other two companies before making a decision. The main reason is that he likes Shao Yingxiong's acting skills. From the time of Feng Biao, he felt that this actor had a wildness. When the District Fourteenth arrived, this wildness had spread to his heart. When the mansion was broadcast, the seventh master who returned from Xiaolonghe, Jinan Prefecture, with a ruffian spirit, made him reluctant to leave his sight. He liked the temperament that Shao Yingxiong showed on the screen, which was very consistent with Li Yunlong in his heart and full of adventure...

However, why did this popular domestic screenwriter and popular acting school cut down on his novel plot as soon as he met? Such a safe approach seems...the key is that he also gave such an irresistible reason!

Who doesn’t want to become popular? Yang Zhan also wants to become a top domestic screenwriter like Shao Yingxiong, and film what he wants to film. If you want to become famous, you have to catch the audience’s psychology. Then, he has to endure all that Shao Yingxiong said!

"Mr. Yang, don't worry, I haven't finished it yet. Not only is the end not suitable for being brought to the screen, but there are also some plots that cannot be brought to the screen. What I mean is, according to the schedule in the novel, just cut off the head and end, just in the middle."

Seeing Yang Zhan’s expression about to get angry, Shao Yingxiong continued: “Mr. Yang, please consider my suggestions. If you sell the copyright to Huayi, what I can guarantee is that you will become a screenwriter. You must participate in every subtle change of the novel. It will give you the greatest authority and try to restore the original Li Yunlong.”

When Du Liang was still considering whether to preserve the integrity of the work and whether to believe it, Shao Yingxiong said: "I didn't need to tell you these words first. After you sign the contract, the copyright belongs to Huayi. At that time, I would change whatever I wanted. The reason I told you now, instead of coaxing you to sign the contract like other companies is entirely out of my sincerity, and one author respects another author."

Shao Yingxiong likes this book. This book describes the temper of a "man" who is exclusive to the wartime era. He writes a general who loves to take advantage of a small advantage, is extremely deceitful when fighting, and uses the ammunition depot as his own backyard vault. This is not a good TV series, but a normal person who has flaws and will shed tears!

Not only that, when watching this TV series, Shao Yingxiong could even see Du Liang's feelings during business and his nostalgia for the army, so he talked with Du Liang with full sincerity.

Just imagine, when the businessmen in the field just emerged, what did the merchants all over the floor compare? Who compares the goods better, who has the lower price, who is more honest and trustworthy and credible? The business world was very simple at that time, like a typical war drama on TV, where love is a party-----love is a country, and before death, they also have to pay party dues with pickles before they die. What happened? After the first businessman who knows how to use relationships in networks to do business appeared, the business world changed. It became that whoever is eloquent, who is smooth enough, who has more connections, who has more connections can make money! He is smart, who is not as good as businessmen or treacherous as a businessman. It seems like a Li Yunlong appeared in a typical war situation. It looks so unique, so different, but so attractive.

Du Liang put his helpless situation in the shopping mall on Li Yunlong, and put his failure in the shopping mall on Li Yunlong's body on the little one - ghost - son, otherwise little - ghost - son's special forces kidnapped Li Yunlong's wife? Can't Li Yunlong save his beloved woman with a pig's feet halo?

Shao Yingxiong was even sure that Yang Zhan wrote about Li Yunlong's plot, which was completely accumulating emotions in the business world. Maybe even he himself still thinks that this is an inspiration and increases conflict for the plot. This just lays the best foundation for authenticity, and a shocking failure in exchange for the success of attacking the county town, which is not only in line with the audience's admiration for heroes, but also can use Li Yunlong's demotion to perfectly resolve everything.

Such a general who was cruel to the enemy and was willing to risk his discipline and took away his new military uniform from being snatched away from his clothes, and said "He-mother---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This completely satisfies the expectations of "Batman, Spider-Man" and other superheroes in China. Who made the heroes written by "Jin, Gu, Liang" tired of seeing them, and the protagonists of war dramas who always speak like a party meeting can no longer touch people?

Du Liang nodded after thinking for a long time, without much nonsense, asking directly: "What's the price?"

“Two hundred thousand.”

This is the price given by Shao Yingxiong in the competitive environment of the three companies. At present, he is quite familiar with the price of script copyright in the domestic market. If there were no other two companies waiting for Du Liang, Shao Yingxiong would not have given such a high price.

"I want to become a screenwriter."

Shao Yingxiong looked at Du Liang's eyes and said, "No problem, I agreed just now."

"That's OK."

"Okay, Zhang Wan will take you to the studio to sign a contract later."

That's right, it's not Hua Yi, Shao Yingxiong asked Zhang Wan to take Du Liang to the studio.

This is really not that Shao Yingxiong wants to blackmail Huayi. The key is that the process of applying for a purchase from Huayi is too cumbersome, not to mention that Wang Zhongjun is very busy with Feng Xiaogang now. If Huayi is waiting for Huayi, the copyright will be in the hands of others when it is not approved.

Bee, bee, bee.

Shao Yingxiong had just sent him off and the phone rang. After answering the phone, he immediately heard such a curse...

"Yingxiong Shao, your uncle!!!"
