Big names rise

Li Wenhua's phone call was to tell He Mu that someone bought the film adaptation rights of "Du Lala's Promotion" from Tiandi Media. He didn't know whether He Mu wanted to be solely owned by his company or seek a partner to develop this project together, so Call and ask if you want to tell them.

In fact, He Mu didn't make any plans on how to deal with Du Lala. He just objectively felt that among the novels held by Tiandi Media, Du Lala had the most commercial value, and the difficulty of adapting and filming was also the least, so he got it first. I didn't expect anyone else to have this plan.

"Who are you talking about?" He Mu asked.

"It was Zhang Yibai who talked to me. I told him that he had already sold it to someone else, but I haven't told him that the copyright is in your hands. It's up to you whether you want him to know or not," Li Wenhua said, and added, "By the way, do you know who Zhang Yibai is?"

"Brother, do you think I'm illiterate?" He Mu complained helplessly. Although he is not a literary youth and is not that keen on literary films, he has been in this circle for so many years. How could the directors of famous film and television works such as "In the End", "Curiosity Killed the Cat" and "The Subway to Spring" not know each other.

"Just know it. I'll introduce it to you. It's him who found me."

"Finished?"

Li Wenhua thought for a while, "He said he didn't take the photo himself, it seems that he bought it for someone else."

He Mu pondered for a while, "Let him contact me. I still have [-] million yuan in cash. It's better to invest in it. This movie is still invested by Mizuki. If they are willing, they can cooperate. The directing rights can be given to them. I can also give up part of the benefits, anyway, I don't have a suitable team to shoot this kind of scene."

"That's good. I'll tell him tomorrow." After talking about this matter, Li Wenhua didn't hang up the phone, and continued talking about other things. Anyway, He Mu had nothing else to do tonight, so he just listened to him patiently. The two brothers were busy Everyone, it's been a while since we've spoken on the phone.

Li Wenhua focused on one thing.It seems insignificant on the surface, but Li Wenhua attaches great importance to it.It turned out that this month Yuesheng acquired Jushi Wenhua Company, a book planning agency. According to He Mu, he learned from some relationships in Sheng.Sheng CEO Hou Xiaoqiang also plans to inject capital into Huawen Tianxia, ​​and now the two parties are in the process of negotiating with each other.

Jushi Wenhua and Huawen Tianxia are of the same nature as Tiandi Xuanhuang. They are both bridges between authors or websites and publishing houses, planning, publicizing and publishing books.before.Tiandi Xuanhuang is the main partner of Sheng, and Sheng and Tiandi Media jointly own the shares of Hongxiu Tianxiang. It can be said that Tiandi Xuanhuang has provided a lot of publishing opportunities for the novels of Sheng’s website, and conversely, it can also be said that Sheng has provided Tiandi Xuanhuang. It has acquired a large number and variety of simplified and traditional novel copyrights, satisfying the growing publishing capacity of Tiandi Xuanhuang and Buhua Publishing House.

Although Tiandixuanhuang no longer simply relies on online novels of varying quality to improve its popularity, its tentacles have extended to traditional literati and other non-fiction books, and they all have good results, but Shanda’s website is still Tiandixuanhuang And the most important content provider of Buhua Publishing House.The two book companies made huge profits from it.

Now, after a period of integration, Sheng began to make up the idea of ​​this part of the interests, first of all, to acquire Jushi Wenhua.He began to plan to inject capital into Huawen Tianxia again. After the event is completed, with Jushi Wenhua, which is heavy on publicity, and Huawen Tianxia, ​​which has a strong distribution capacity, in his hands, Sheng can theoretically ignore Tiandi Xuanhuang and contact the publishing house directly. Although Jushi Wenhua and Huawen Tianxia Joining forces may not be worth a world, but Sheng has expanded the industrial chain and increased his own profits. Even if it affects the sales of books, this is an acceptable loss.

Of course, it is impossible for Sheng to completely suspend the cooperation with Tiandi Xuanhuang. At least Hongxiu Tianxiang has a share with both companies, and this part of them cannot be too ugly. Moreover, Tiandi Media still has the only magazine "Tianxia Wangwen" in the online literature circle. , the price of this magazine is not high, but the sales volume is very good. There are both physical and electronic versions. Many lists in the magazine are an important basis for many Internet lovers to choose books. Because of this, the promotion of "World Internet" With strong ability and huge influence, it is known as the vane of the Internet literature circle, because Bilong's sky is more in line with public tastes and traditional values, "Tianxia Wangwen" has become the focus of most attention of various websites, and it is the first choice of Wangwen practitioners. Must read the Bible.

It can be said that whoever is favored by the editor-in-chief of "Tianxia Wangwen" can become popular, just like Tiancan Tudou, who wrote "Warcraft Swordsman" at the beginning, has won the support of the editor-in-chief of the magazine for many times. Stand out from the crowd and become the rookie king of the year. There are so many examples like this, too numerous to enumerate.

Because of the cooperative relationship between Tiandi Media and Sheng, "Tianxiawangwen" is the most highly praised for Shanda's banner, and it has produced many popular novels for Qidian, which has consolidated Qidian's position as the industry hegemony. Given the strong influence of Wen, it is impossible for Sheng to completely cut off the cooperation with Tiandi Xuanhuang.

After hearing Li Wenhua talk a lot, He Mu lazily said, "After talking for a long time, I understand that you are worried that Sheng's establishment of a book company will cut off your financial resources, but then again, no matter how powerful Tiandi Media is, it is impossible to publish it. All the novels under Shanda, so you operate some, they operate some, it seems that it has no effect on you."

"Why didn't it affect it! It has a big impact!" Li Wenhua said not so calmly, "My book explorer saw the simplified and traditional publishing rights of "Douluo Dalu" that Tang Jiasan is serializing. His last book was also published by us. I did it, but this time I only got the traditional Chinese copyright, and the simplified Chinese copyright was not sold. Obviously, this is left for them to operate. Tang Jiasan is definitely one of the most valuable writers in the online literary world, like this If Shanda has always been in control of high-quality resources, we can only get those novels with poor qualifications. Even when Shengda is strong enough one day, they can no longer care about the influence of Tiandi Media. "

Li Wenhua is not worrying unfoundedly. Tiandi Xuanhuang has cooperated with Qidian from the beginning of its establishment, and has witnessed the development and rise of this website. Sheng was successfully established last year, and Qidian has become the core of Sheng. The parent company has increased its investment in it. Zizi opened the gap with other sites of the same type, and the gap is still increasing. If one day Qidian develops and grows enough to represent web texts, this website will be invincible.

"Then what do you want to do now?" He Mu understands Li Wenhua's worries, but because he doesn't know much about this industry, he can't give him good suggestions. The only thing he can do is to stimulate Li Wenhua's inspiration and ask him ask a question.

"Sheng needs checks and balances. It's not a good thing for me to be dominant, and it's not a good thing for the entire industry," Li Wenhua said carefully, "Sheng's works account for more than half of the online novels published by Tiandi Xuanhuang and Buhua Publishing House. , so next we will strengthen cooperation with other stations, such as 'Looking Together' and the newly established 'Zongheng'. There is a chance to fight against the starting point."

Li Wenhua does not dare to say that he can turn upside down in the growing Internet literature industry, but relying on the powerful publishing channels and the publicity function of "Tianxia Wangwen", increasing the publicity of the excellent works of these two websites can still be achieved to a certain extent. Help them catch up with the starting point.

After hearing Li Wenhua's plan, He Mu sighed, "It seems that your life is not easy, you can consider making movies in the future."

Li Wenhua smiled, "Don't be complacent, I think Sheng is not only satisfied with the literature industry, I have met Hou Xiaoqiang, he has said many times that he wants to rely on Sheng to build a huge and omnipresent industrial network, not only There are simplified and traditional Chinese publications, as well as games, comics, audio novels, film and television works, and various peripheral product development, maybe when Sheng will get involved with a film company again, it will be difficult for you to buy the adaptation rights."

He Mu replied, "The novels I read are not very suitable for adapting film and television works."

Li Wenhua chuckled, "Did you forget that "A Good Man in Tang Dynasty" is also an online novel, and Brother Fang recently bought the right to adapt the TV series "Bu Bu Jing Xin" from me, these are all online novels .”

"According to what you said, relying on strong content resources, Sheng can definitely enter the entertainment industry, and will it affect us film and television companies?"

"It's not impossible. Now that Shanda Group has acquired Kuliu.com, it's not difficult to enter the entertainment industry. I'm so jealous that I want to start a website now. Unfortunately, I started too late and there is no market anymore. .” Li Wenhua sighed.

The conversation with Li Wenhua let He Mu know a lot of deeds in the literary circle, especially the online literature circle. According to him, if Sheng erected copyright barriers and invested in his own popular novels, then their film and television companies would lose a lot The opportunity to adapt, but does Shanda really have this ability?Can those unconstrained fantasy novels really be perfectly adapted to the big screen?He Mu always felt that it was not so easy. The film and television industry was not as simple as Li Wenhua thought.

It was another busy day of filming, and "Glass Heart" is now more than half finished. In the morning, He Mu had just sent away the guest star Shi Shi, and Xiao Nan handed over the phone before she could sit still, and someone called.

"Whose?" He Mu asked.

"Xu Jinglei." Xiao Nan replied.
