Chapter 108: Exhortation (First Update!)

After coming out of the hospital and going home a little to wash up and clean up, Yin Jun went to Xingji Tea Restaurant again. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

There is no mobile phone at this time, so when talking about things or something, you need to make an appointment in advance, otherwise it will not be easy to find someone.

At this time, it was almost 9 o'clock in the morning, and when Yin Jun arrived at the set box, he saw Huang Ying eating and drinking.

"Jun Shao, are you here?" Huang Ying saw Yin Jun, raised his hand to say hello, and continued to stuff things into his mouth, "I really can't get used to eating things from Baodao." And these days it's all about drinking, just eat some instant noodles when you eat, it's better to be at home, these refreshments are so delicious!"

Yin Jun smiled, sat opposite him, poured a cup of Pu'er tea, and drank it slowly, "Brother Ying, this is the so-called 100 days at home, it's difficult to go out for a day, right?"

"Who says it's not?" Huang Ying nodded in agreement, pointing to a transparent plastic folder on the chair next to him, "This is a contract, you signed it in advance, and Gu Long also signed it, and this has already taken effect." Gu Long didn't call me an IOU for the rest of the money, no wonder he called him Gu Daxia! Just for this point, I have to fly to the treasure island again tonight. ”

Yin Jun took out eight stacks of big golden bulls from his pocket, and along the way, there were 50 scattered big golden bulls: "This is for Brother Ying." In addition, the travel expenses last time were almost used up, right? Brother Eagle, you don't have to save, you can have more contact with them, bold friends, everyone likes them. ”

Before Huang Ying went to Baodao last time, Yin Jun gave him 50,000 yuan, and told him to be generous, and if there was anything to give, he rushed to settle the bill.

Now the Hong Kong dollar is still very valuable, the economy of Xiangjiang is not bad, and the monthly salary is only 900, and 50,000 is almost a person's salary for 5 years.

The consumption of Treasure Island is not high, Huang Ying takes this money to go to Treasure Island, even if it is to drink flower wine, a group of wine x disciples are happy, within three or five days, it will definitely be enough.

As for Yin Jun taking a total of 100,000 yuan to Huang Ying twice before and after, whether he has some left, Yin Jun doesn't plan to ask at all.

When looking for someone to do things, you must not be stingy, this is the experience that Yin Jun summed up.

Besides, Yin Jun has never been a stingy person, in his previous life, he had a salary of five or six thousand a month, and when someone he knew wanted to borrow money, or let him have a treat for some night beer, he would usually readily agree.

Money is something that is earned and spent.

Thinking about money every day is not what a man should do after all.

Huang Ying admired Yin Jun's Shanghai-style character, he unceremoniously took the money, and said, "I'll stay here for two or three days at most, I really can't stand them." I'm more and more suspicious now, how did Gu Long and Wo Longsheng write their books, and if they drink too much, doesn't it affect their thinking?"

"So, you can see that the classics they wrote were almost all from the sixties and seventies. Yin Jun laughed, "If it goes on like this, I'm afraid they won't be able to produce any good works." Not everyone is as self-disciplined as Jin Yong, and if it weren't for Jin Yong's obsession with business, he would have no problem writing for 30 years. ”

"Come on!" Huang Ying hurriedly shook his head, "Jin Yong has written so many novels, and there are already mountains pressing us down, and if there are twenty or thirty more, won't this make us have no place to come out?"

"You're still so young, but there is time. Yin Jun said in a flash, "But Brother Ying, your ambition doesn't seem to be writing a book, right?"

"Hey, you're right!" Huang Ying swallowed a piece of tripe and said with interest: "Then what do you think, what do I want to do?"

"Develop in screenwriting first, and if you develop well, you will become a director, open a film company, and make a good career. When Huang Ying's mouth opened wider and wider, Yin Jun shrugged and said, "Brother Ying, did I say something wrong?"

"What a hell of a life!"

Huang Ying's face was shocked, "You are the roundworm in my stomach...... Oh, I'm sorry, Junshao, I didn't mean that!"

"It doesn't matter. Yin Jun smiled slightly.

"Jun Shao, since you can guess that I want to make a movie, do you think I can succeed?" Huang Ying's eyes twitched.

Yin Jun in front of him is not only a teenager who predicts his dreams so accurately, but also a veritable genius screenwriter with strength and vision that no one else has.

Huang Ying's ideals for himself have never been so bottom-up, and it just so happened that Yin Jun talked about this matter today, so he could ask for advice.

The way of academics, the master is the teacher.

Although Yin Jun's age is young, his ability is better than most people in his twenties and thirties, so what he says carries a lot of weight.

"Do you really want to hear it?" Yin Jun said with a smile as he ate.

Seeing Yin Jun like this, Huang Ying's heart sank, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Please speak!"

"Because you have full imagination and expressive skills, you can do some screenwriting work and become a first-class screenwriter. However......" Yin Jun said, "you lack the spirit of keeping pace with the times, you don't have the eye to detect popular factors, and you can't take care of a company well." If you become a director, or even start your own company, I'm afraid you will go bankrupt sooner or later. ”

Huang Ying knew that Yin Jun was not optimistic about him, but he didn't expect Yin Jun to say it so seriously.

For a while, he said with resentment: "Aren't being screenwriters and directors both making up stories? Since I can be a good writer and screenwriter, why can't I be a good director?"

"Gu Long and Jin Yong are better than the books you wrote, when have you ever seen them direct?" Yin Jun said, "This is because they know that if they can write a good story, they may not be able to be a good screenwriter, and even if they are a good screenwriter, they may not be able to be a good director." Because the form of expression of novels and movies is completely different.

Fiction is a kind of static reading, and the rendering power of words in many places will make people associate it from the heart, which is the charm of novels. But film is different, it relies on the expression of images and transmits light to people's brains to express it, which has higher requirements for directors. So this is why many directors make novels into TV series and movies, and many places are different from the original books.

And the pressure on the director is far greater than that of the screenwriter and the author. Screenwriters often receive a salary, and they receive a salary after writing a script, and they can get a fixed salary. The author is better, he gets paid when he finishes writing and publishes the book, and the more times he reprints, the more money he can get. But what about the director? He's in charge of a film with millions, if even millions, of investment, and if it fails, what is his responsibility?

Not to mention Brother Eagle, you want to start your own company. If you succeed in a movie, no problem, then if you want to continue to make money, there is no problem. But what do you do if you fail once, and you don't want to continue making movies, and you end up in debt? Can you afford to fail? What should your family do?"

Huang Ying swallowed his saliva, his face was a little ugly: "Jun Shao, everyone who wants to fight will face such a possibility, right? Even when you went to film "Wulin Gaiden", wasn't it very difficult?"

"yes, that's why I'll be more cautious in the future. Yin Jun said, "However, what I said is also very extreme, you are not at that level yet." But if you ask me to give you advice, I suggest that you stay in the screenwriting industry for 10 years, and then stay in the directing industry for 10 years, and then you think about whether it is most appropriate for you to take on the responsibility of a company. ”

Huang Ying pondered that he is 22 years old this year, only 32 years old after 10 years as a screenwriter, and 42 years old after 10 years as a director.

Listening to the tragic failures that Yin Jun just said, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, this can happen to every filmmaker.

But if you follow Yin Jun's advice, it seems to be much more secure.

"Let's not talk about anything else, after 20 years of accumulation, your economic and psychological endurance must be much better than now. Yin Jun continued, "At that time, even if one or two movies hit the street, you won't suffer major setbacks, and you won't be unable to get up, right?"

Huang Ying nodded, although there was still an unwilling look on his face, the obsession he just talked about had also weakened a lot.

No way.

Yin Jun is completely a genius, and what a genius says, especially what a successful genius says, is always something that someone has to listen to.

Huang Ying has been in contact with Yin Jun so many times, and he knows that Yin Jun is not the kind of person who is alarmist and likes to be scary, but a very down-to-earth and very cautious person.

If Yin Jun hadn't seen some of his shortcomings, I'm afraid he wouldn't have said that.

"Brother Ying, only those who can endure loneliness and hardship can have the possibility of success. Yin Jun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, "You are only 22 years old, and 20 years is not a long time." At that time, you are already married and have children, and you will be more thoughtful about things, which can only help the film industry, and there is no harm. It's always better for yourself and your family to be stable, isn't it?"

Huang Ying nodded again.

This time, his expression was a little more relaxed.

Yin Jun didn't know if he really listened, but with the current friendship between the two, Huang Ying completed his commission beautifully, this is a friendship.

If there really is that day, Huang Ying still embarked on that road, I believe that with Yin Jun's strength at that time, it would not be difficult to help him get through the most difficult moment.

As long as he thought so, Yin Jun's heart slowly became more steady.

"Alright, Brother Eagle, when we're done with business, it's time for us to get down to business. Yin Jun stopped his chopsticks and said, "I don't know if you have any requirements for your adaptation of "Shen Shengyi"?"

"Didn't I say that last time? Huang Ying said nonchalantly: "You can adapt it for me as soon as possible and turn it into a TV series." ”

"What about the remuneration? you have to set a number, right?" Yin Jun asked.

"I heard that the screenwriters who are better now take 1200 episodes and the average 800 episodes...... I'm the author of the original book, so I'll charge you a whole number, 10,000!" Huang Ying said.

Adapting a script is actually more troublesome than an original script.

Because in addition to the cost of adaptation, there is also a cost of purchasing the copyright of the original work.

Huang Ying's "Shen Shengyi", there are a total of 27 stories, all of which are very exciting, of course, this is also the context of following the ancient classic Chu Liuxiang and Lu Xiaofeng series, a few episodes and a story.

For such a long novel, he only charges 10,000, which is really cheap, and it is only one-tenth of the public relations fee that Yin Jun asked him to use this time.

It can be seen that Huang Ying really doesn't care about money.

"It's not going to work. Yin Jun shook his head, he was not used to taking advantage of this, "Brother Ying, I also do business when I buy the adaptation rights to write scripts...... Aren't you working as a screenwriter now? I commissioned you to adapt "Shen Shengyi" into a screenplay, tentatively about 80 episodes, and I will give you 2,000 yuan per episode, what do you think?"

"So much?" Huang Ying calculated, he could get 160,000, which is a lot of wealth, "There is no need for so much, authorization and adaptation together, 1000 episodes are good." ”

"I think it's worth so much money. Yin Jun said, "But I have to tell you first, without involving changing the direction of the plot and the main content, I may make some changes to "Shen Shengyi", Brother Ying, don't you mind?"

"What do I mind?" Huang Ying shook his head again and again, "You are the first screenwriter in Xiangjiang, you can change my novel script to make the "Shen Shengyi" TV series more beautiful and make me more famous, I can't ask for it!"

"That's good. ”

Yin Jun said, "As for the actors who want to suggest anything, you can also tell me, and we can suggest to the TV station." ”

"Aren't you shooting yourself?" asked Huang Ying in surprise.

"I still have too many shortcomings, and I can't handle this kind of long-form drama. Yin Jun said with a smile, "Whether it is the grasp of the camera, the control of the rhythm, or the adjustment of the actors' acting skills, I am far behind, and I have to learn for a few years." ”

Huang Ying nodded when he heard this, this handsome young man is really modest, obviously he was directing the front of "Wulin Gaiden", but he let others do it when he was familiar with the filming in the back, but he still didn't satisfy his pride.

It seems that he persuaded me before, and it was indeed for my own good.

I don't want to talk about making movies now, but I haven't been an independent screenwriter a few times, and I have not achieved good results every time, and I still have so many delusions, which is really too self-conscious.

"By the way, Brother Ying, if you write a script and sell it to Jiashi, there will be no problem on Li's side, right?" Yin Jun said as he remembered something.

"Of course, no problem, in fact I'm almost at the end of my contract. Huang Ying said, "Originally, Brother Ruoyuan was going to give me a new contract, but now I think that if "Shen Shengyi" is going to make a TV series, I can learn it in the crew, what do you think?"

"Yes. ”

Yin Jun said with a smile, "When the time comes, I'll just talk to the other side, Brother Ying, you are also ready to start getting busy!"

"It's better to be busy, it's better than doing nothing all day long!" Huang Ying said with a smile on his face.

Thinking that his novel was about to be made into a TV series, Huang Ying only felt that his mood was extremely comfortable! )
