Chapter 303 Film and Television Adaptation Rights
The man who interrupted was Huang Zhan, Huang Laoxie, known as the four talented men in Xiangjiang. He was also a famous romantic talent. He had the same temperament as another talented man, Ni Kuang. His biggest hobby was to linger in nightclubs, not to be ashamed but to be proud, and believed that only in this way could he be worthy of the title of talented man.
"Haha! The first time I saw a pirated copy, I was so confident!" Huang Zhan smiled strangely.
There is a reason why Huang Zhan targeted Zhang Lang like this. Zhang Lang, the four talented men in Xiangjiang, only invited three. Ni Kuang, who was like his stinking, was not invited. Huang Zhan was talking about his friends.
Facing Huang Zhan's thorny words, Zhang Lang smiled indifferently and said to himself: "What's this! You haven't seen future generations, and those who read pirated copies are so arrogant. You are cursing while watching pirated copies! You threaten you at any time. If you don't update them properly, you won't even read pirated copies!"
However, Jin Yong is an honest and kind person. He is afraid that Zhang Lang is embarrassed, so he smiled and explained to him, "It's okay! As long as Mr. Zhang likes it! Someone has a piracy at least means that my novel is popular! What I fear most is not piracy, but that it is terrible that no one even reads piracy!"
"Haha! Mr. Cha is very opinionated! In fact, the abominable thing is not the people who read pirated books, but the merchants who make pirated copies! The profits are all earned by them! But they are reluctant to give up a little royalty! Such talents are the most shameful!"
"Yes! The most shameful thing is those merchants who publish pirated copies. Not to mention the mainland, there are people publishing pirated copies in Xiangjiang! Speaking of which, I remembered something. A book friend once came to me with a set of novels from me to sign! As a result, when I saw that all of them were pirated, there were typos in it!"
"How dare such a person sign an autograph? If I do, I will humiliate him hard and drive him away!" Huang Zhan said loudly.
Zhang Lang smiled and retorted: "I guess Mr. Cha must have signed him!"
Jin Yong laughed happily, "Haha! I didn't expect that Mr. Zhang would understand me! I'll give him a set of genuine novels signed by me!"
"Haha! There is a spirit in Mr. Cha's book. The most heroic person is for the country and the people! Mr. Cha also has a chivalrous style! But I think giving him a set of genuine books is better than humiliating him!"
"As Mr. Zhang said, not long after, this book friend cooperated with the police station and the cultural department to destroy several pirated dens!"
"Haha! Mr. Cha's book is worth it!" Zhang Lang smiled and complimented.
Zhang Lang and Jin Yong were having a hot chat, and Huang Zhan next to him felt a little embarrassed. He was not as good as leaving, and it was a bit awkward to stay if he didn't leave.
Zhang Lang saw Huang Zhan’s thoughts and greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Huang, I have long admired your name. I never get tired of listening to many songs you have created! Many of them can sing them!"
"Oh? Is that true? I wonder what songs Mr. Zhang can sing?" Huang Zhan asked straight.
If you don’t want to ask about this, others will definitely not ask, but who is Huang Zhan? He always talks without restraint when laughing and scolding. To put it nicely, Huang Zhan is called true temperament. People like Huang Zhan in later generations are trolls and kings.
"There are many, such as "Ask Me" asking me how many cheers there are, how many crying I have, how can I be
I will be happy to ask me if I have some explanations. After all, I will be painful to answer. I smiled and said... I am dependent on me! I like this song very much! Especially the sentence I am dependent on me!"
The song "Ask Me" sung by Zhang Lang is a proud work of Huang Zhan, which just scratches Huang Zhan's itchy spot.
Huang Zhan suddenly forgot the unhappiness just now and forgot to stand up for his friends.
Pull Zhang Lang to discuss the song creation.
There is a reason why Zhang Lang made friends with Jin Yong and Huang Zhan in such a low posture.
If you compare ATV and Wireless later, you will find that the reason why Wireless always beats ATV is because of Jin Yong's martial arts novel adaptation rights.
Every time ATV (Lidi) launches a new show or films a new drama, TVB will use magic weapons.
This magic weapon is Jin Yong's martial arts drama.
Most of the soundtracks of Jin Yong's martial arts dramas are written by Huang Zhan.
Actually, Jin Yong is not very satisfied with the TV series adapted by TVB, but because he has a good personal relationship with Shao Yifu, he cannot refuse the adaptation of TVB.
Zhang Lang made friends with Jin Yong not to compete with TVB for exclusive adaptation rights with TVB. What he wants is the same platform. You can adapt me or I. Everyone competes fairly to see which TVB adaptation of the audience likes.
"Mr. Cha, there are a few little brothers in our country who plan to set up a film and television company. I don't know your domestic film and television adaptation rights... Don't worry, we will never make random changes. Everything starts from the perspective of respecting the original work."
Jin Yong looked at Zhang Lang, "Mr. Zhang is really different from the mainland people I know! I remember that mainlanders don't care about copyright, they just use it! Few people care about whether doing this will infringe on the rights."
"Everything has a development process. The country has just undergone reform and opening up, and many things must be in a gradual process!" Zhang Lang touched his nose embarrassedly.
The lack of attention to intellectual property rights in China is really a big problem, and the country has suffered a lot of losses because of this, but the vested interests are too strong, and the copyright issue has not been well solved until the 21st century.
"Mr. Zhang and I hit it off at first sight, and Mr. Zhang's request is absolutely true! Just based on what Mr. Zhang said just now, I authorized Mr. Zhang to adapt the TV series at a price of HKD! Of course, it is only available in China!"
"This...thanks to Mr. Cha for his high ethics! In this way, I will donate 10 million Hong Kong dollars to the Xiangjiang Charity Federation in the name of Mr. Cha!"
"Haha! OK! Mr. Zhang really knows me! If you give me more money, I won't like it! Very good, just do what Mr. Zhang said!"
After finalizing the adaptation rights of Jin Yong, Zhang Lang turned to look at Huang Zhan again.
"Haha, Mr. Zhang, we can say that I can score the novel "Lao Cha, but I don't think that I'm as generous as Lao Cha, you can't be as stingy as Shao Lao Liu. I'm counting on this little money to drink and find a woman!" Huang Zhan was really straightforward and never shy away from her finding a woman.
"I, Mr. Zhang, just don't have enough money! In this way, as long as Mr. Huang's masterpiece is selected, how about I buy out the copyright at a price of 500,000 yuan per song?"
"Okay! Mr. Zhang is indeed proud!"
Nowadays, a song in Xiangjiang costs only a few thousand yuan, and the buyout price is only tens of thousands of yuan. Zhang Lang gave it a sky-high price.
Huang Zhan immediately regarded Zhang Lang as his confidant. As for Ni Kuang, who is Ni Kuang?
Zhang Lang was also secretly happy. Classic songs such as "A Laugh in the Sea", "My Chinese Heart", "Men Should Be Self-reliant", "Arrogant and Laughtering in the Waves" are basically his belongings.
