1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 807

The Spring Festival holiday is over, and the flow of time seems to have accelerated all of a sudden, which makes people a little caught off guard.

At the beginning of the new year, the first priority of the Chinese Literature Society is the launch of Buhu’s new book in March. It is still a familiar recipe and a familiar taste.

Last year, Lin Weimin announced the full copyright operation plan of the Chinese Literature Society at a press conference at the beginning of the year, which aroused numerous media reports and widespread attention from readers at the time.

Now that one year has passed, the media and readers are also curious about how the Chinese Literature Society's copyright operation plan is going.

"Haha, another year has passed in a flash. It is still very exciting to stand on this stage again and think back to the complacency of last year."

In the banquet hall of Yanjing Hotel, Lin Weimin stood on the podium, holding a microphone and talking with confidence, calmness and grace.

“I have just introduced another batch of titles from our Buhu Book Series and Youth Buhu. Next, I will report to you some of the achievements of the Chinese Literature Society in the field of copyright operations last year.

I think many old friends should still remember that the first work we targeted for copyright operation and development was Yuxiu's "Flower Season and Rainy Season".

This novel based on high school life has been welcomed by countless readers in China after its publication. It has also been well received by critics. It has sold millions of copies and received excellent word-of-mouth reviews.

In March last year, our Chinese Literature Society officially launched the various copyright operation and development plans for "Flower Season and Rainy Season".

Among them, the radio series "Flower Season and Rainy Season" produced and distributed by Tiantian Changting Company has sold 40 units, with cumulative sales exceeding 400 million yuan;

The comic "Flower Season and Rainy Season" written by Yan Kaifu and serialized in "King of Painting" magazine has also been loved by countless comic readers in China.Since the serialization of "Flower Season and Rainy Season", the sales of "King of Painting" have continued to rise, and the sales volume of the latest issue has exceeded 380 million copies.

In addition, the TV series "Flower Season and Rainy Season" officially launched on CCTV's first program on January 1 this year. This domestic first youth idol drama created by Wencheng Film and Television has received The audience unanimously praised the show, achieving a highest ratings of 1%, breaking CCTV's best ratings in the past four years.

Not only that, "Flower Season and Rainy Season" has also been broadcast on many local TV stations, all of which have achieved good ratings. Its influence has moved from novels to reality, becoming a youthful memory for a generation of readers and viewers. "

Lin Weimin's tone was calm, but every achievement he mentioned was extremely important. These achievements are like the best in any literary and artistic field.

And this is just the result achieved within one year after the Chinese Publishing House launched its copyright operation plan.

Incredible!

This is the biggest feeling of the reporters attending the meeting.

Many people inexplicably thought of the scene a year ago. At that time, in the same scene, Lin Weimin stood on the stage and talked loudly.

The prospect described in his words is very beautiful, and it has never been in the public's concept. However, it is precisely because of this fantastic idea that many people are looking forward to this massive and grand event of the Chinese Literature Society. The plan created some uncertainty.

Full copyright operation plan?
Can you still do this?
Privately, in the literary, publishing and media circles, there are different opinions about this adventure of the Chinese Literature Society. There are some who praise it, some who slander it, and most of them just talk about it in gossip.

Surrounding the "big move of the Chinese Literature Society", there were countless rumors circulating privately last year.

Today is another annual Buhu book series launch. This day seems to have gradually turned into an important gathering in the domestic literary and publishing circles.

Today, at the Yanjing Hotel, journalists and colleagues in the literary and publishing circles can not only hear the news about the Buhu series of books, but also witness every important action of the Chinese Literature Society in seeking development.

Now that one year has passed, without the urging of readers or reminders from peers, the Chinese Literature Society took the initiative to report the achievements of the full copyright operation plan during the year at the press conference.

The results of "Flower Season and Rainy Season" are the most fruitful fruits of the 1995 all-copyright operation plan of the Chinese Literature Society, but it is not the only one.

Speaking of copyright development and operation, "Party A and Party B", "A Romantic Affair" and "Spirited Away" are actually among them.

Lin Weimin's words did not stop. He continued: "In addition to "Flower Season and Rainy Season", there are also Wang Shuo's "You Are Not a Common Man". This novel was selected by Wenhua Film and Television under our Chinese Literature Society and was directed by Feng Xiaogang. Directed by Wang Shuo, it was adapted into the movie "Party A and Party B", which was released on December 12 and grossed 24 million at the box office, becoming the highest-grossing domestic film in the past year."

"Another example is "A Romantic Affair". You may not have heard of the original novel for this TV series, but in fact it is also adapted from the novel.

It's just that after the author Haiyan took the novel manuscript to our Chinese Literature Society, we were attracted by it at a glance. Before the novel was published, the TV series project had already been approved.

The TV series was broadcast on CCTV in September last year and also achieved good results, and the sales of the novel were also very good. "

"There is also the comic adaptation of "Spirited Away". This children's literature has been loved by countless children in China since its birth, and its sales this year have exceeded 2300 million copies.

The adapted comic was serialized in the first issue of the girls' comic magazine "Hongdou Comics". In just 9 issues, the sales volume of a single issue of "Hongdou Comics" has exceeded 500 million copies, and the total sales volume has exceeded 4000 million copies, breaking the sales ceiling of domestic comic publications. It has also become the well-deserved first publication in the domestic comics industry. "

Lin Weimin brought to the table every successful adaptation case of the Chinese Literature Society in the past year like a treasure trove, and the reporters in the audience were all dumbfounded.

Before he concluded, many reporters had actually collected a lot of information about Guowenshe and these adapted works, but Ling Ling did not have a complete concept in general.

It was not until the end of Lin Weimin's impassioned speech that the reporters, guests and colleagues in the audience finally realized what achievements the Chinese Literature Society had achieved in the past year.

"Full Copyright Operation Plan".

After a year of polishing, this concept finally revealed its brilliant side to the world.

The Chinese Literature Society solemnly promises that they will invest heavily in full copyright operations around many literary works that are widely popular among readers and have wide influence.

They did it. In just one year, the all-copyright operation plan not only brought significant profit growth points to the Chinese Literature Society, but also benefited many domestic literary creators.

"Let's take "Flower Season and Rainy Season" as an example. Last year, this novel was adapted in several art forms. It not only won the love of readers and audiences, but also created considerable returns for several companies involved in the adaptation. .

More importantly, it brings huge royalties to the original author. "When Lin Weimin said this, his tone was extremely solemn, and the reporters in the audience also stared at him with bated breath.

The film "Flower Season and Rainy Season" made Yuxiu, a young girl who was still in high school at the time, a popular young writer in China, and also earned her millions of yuan in royalties.

Her life has just begun, and it's already soaring into the sky.

But now, there is still a vast starry sky above the clouds.

"500 yuan!"

When Lin Weimin spit out this number, it was shocking.

"Over 500 million yuan, various adaptations of "Flower Season and Rainy Season" have brought the original author Yuxiu more than 500 million yuan in various royalties in the past year.

I think if we were to rank the income of domestic writers, then Yuxiu would definitely come out on top! "

After finishing his impassioned speech, the reaction from the audience was a little strange.

Lin Weimin was stunned for a moment, then reacted with a smile on his face.

"I'm sorry. Forgot about me, let me say it again: I'm the only one in second place!"

The reporters and guests in the audience burst into laughter. The laughter contained goodwill and surprise!
500 million yuan, a full 500 million yuan.

The most important thing is that this is only the income generated from the development of various copyrights of the novel.

If royalties from novel publishing are included, wouldn't Yuxiu earn nearly [-] million yuan in royalties just from the novel "Flower Season and Rainy Season"?
Unprecedented!

No, there is another one in front, it’s Lin Weimin.

But there is only one evildoer like Lin Weimin in the Chinese literary world in the last hundred years. How can a little girl like Yuxiu, He De, be compared with him?

Many people believe that over time, the word "nearly" in front of the "tens of millions" will be removed. It may be two years, one year, or even half a year.

After all, the full copyright operation plan of "Flower Season and Rainy Season" has been too successful.

In the domestic literary world, there seems to be no other work that has blossomed as fully as this work and is as popular as this one.

Those that are more famous than it do not have as wide an audience as it; those that have a wider audience than it do not make as much money as it does; those that make more money than it do not have as much fame as it.

Of course, all of this must eliminate Lin Weimin's wall.

In addition to the above-mentioned writers who have made a lot of money from copyright development, even writers whose works are only adapted from radio series, many people also earn five or even six figures in royalties.

“Let more writers and comrades personally participate in the feast of the cultural industry!”

Chinese Literature Society has proven its promise with practical actions!

Lin Weimin's speech shocked the reporters, causing a brief silence in the venue, and then a roar.

The reporters were too eager to explore the details of the full copyright operation plan. He raised his hands enthusiastically and rushed to signal, but Lin Weimin was unhurried and did not give these reporters a chance to ask questions. Instead, he announced the press conference. Next process.

Lin Weimin didn't give everyone a chance to ask questions. The reporters were already very depressed, and some even cursed Lin Weimin in their hearts for making people appetizing.

But when everyone heard the sentence "Next, let's ask a few heads of content production companies to introduce to us the list of copyrighted works operated by Guowen Society in 1996", the reporters quickly fell silent.

Asking questions or something, I’m actually not in a hurry.

Rather than asking questions, everyone is still more concerned about which works will be included in the copyright development plan by the Chinese Literature Society in 96.

After all, there are many successful adaptations of works before, and everyone has higher expectations for the adaptation of subsequent works.

"Speak Well", "The Righteous Way in the World", "Never Close Eyes", "See You or Be Parted", "Swordsman"...

Except for "Let's Talk" which was announced last year and is currently being filmed, most of the adaptation plans of the works have been revealed to the public for the first time.

"The Righteous Way in the World" is Zou Meisen's official anti-corruption novel. It has sold more than 180 million copies in the past year. It has been praised by critics and recognized by the readership. Zou Meisen has also completed a transformation through this work.

"Never Close Eyes" is Hai Yan's new novel. It has not been finished yet, but it does not prevent the Chinese Literature Society from including this work in the adaptation plan. "A Romantic Affair" has proved that the "cops + robbers + romance" model success.

"See You or Be Parted" is a new movie by Feng Xiaogang, Wang Shuo and Ge You. Although it is not adapted from the original work, it has been pulled out to enjoy a wave of popularity because it is a Lunar New Year movie.

What concerned most reporters present was "Swordsman".

Jin Yong’s martial arts novels are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the 80s, many TV series adapted from Jin Yong’s martial arts novels were introduced to the mainland from Xiangjiang, setting off a wave of ratings frenzy in the mainland. Now that a mainland publishing house has obtained the rights to adapt Jin Yong’s martial arts novels, this makes How could the media present not be excited?
……

In addition to these film and television copyright developments with relatively large investments, there are also many other copyright developments such as radio series, comics serialization, and cultural and creative cooperation.

The heads of several digital content development companies talked eloquently on the scene, and the reporters present were dazzled.
