<strong>Trantor: </strong>As Studios<strong> Editor: </strong>As Studios
During this period of time, Jiaxing Entertainment and Joy Media started to review Lin Fan’s script.
And the reactions of these twopanies were surprisingly consistent.
“Who is the author of this script? Quickly find him for me and contact him. Jiaxing Entertainment must buy this script.”
“There’s still someone who can write such a script. It’s emotional and the plot is wonderful. The script can be said to be a top-notch work. Can you contact the author who submitted the script? I want to meet him personally.”
“Tm crying. I’ve read so many scripts, but this script is the most touching. What kind of screenwriter can write the love stories in the script so well?”
“Boss, I suggest that we must buy this script. If we can buy it and it bes a television drama, ourpany will make a killing!”
The screenwriters of bothpanies made the same judgment.
Lin Fan’s script was too interesting.
Thenguage was smooth, the plot had ups and downs, and the character design was perfect.
‘What theirpaniescked the most was a script.
Think about it. If the script was very good, the television series produced would not be bad. If it became popr throughout the inte, not only would it increase the poprity of the celebrities who acted in it, thepany could also gain a lot of reputation.
If an outstanding script was adapted into a movie, the value it could produce would be immeasurable!
If a movie could earn five to six billion yuan at the box office, it would be a very good profit for the producers and investors.
Of course, no matter what kind of movie or television drama it was, the core thing was the most primitive script.
Lin Fan’s script received the recognition of threepanies at the same time!
Lin Fan, who had just finished his work at the restaurant, received a call when he returned home.
“Mr. Lin, nice to meet you. Are you the author of the script for “Joy of Life”? I’m Zhao Rui, a staff member of Joy Media. Ourpany wants to talk to you in person and buy the copyrights to your script.” A staff member of Joy Media called and asked.
“What’s your offer?” Lin Fan asked.
“Ourpany’s intention is to pay 10,000 yuan per episode. We will pay a total of 460,000 yuan to buy the copyright to all the episodes of “Joy of Life’. Of course, the exact price can be negotiated,” Zhao Rui said.
“No need.” Lin Fan frowned.
The script that he wrote was only the first step. There were a total of 46 episodes, and Joy Media was only willing to pay 460,000 yuan to buy out his script?
“Mr. Lin, there are actually some problems with your script. It might not be able to be popr if it’s adapted into a television drama. You can first umte poprity. If this television drama bes popr, we can still continue working together for your next script…” Zhao Rui said.
Before the person from Joy Media could finish speaking, Lin Fan had already hung up.
Lin Fan didn’tck money and wouldn’t sell his script for $460,000.
It was obvious that Joy Media wanted to buy a high-level script at a low price.
Lin Fan naturally wouldn’t ept such an oue.
This was the first time Lin Fan had written a script. With Xia Wanqiu as the female lead, this movie would definitely be popr.
After Lin Fan hung up, Joy Media’s staff, Zhao Rui, was a little disdainful.
“Four hundred and sixty thousand yuan is already very high. An episode is ten thousand yuan. Your script for an episode is only ten thousand words. It’s equivalent to a dor a word. You’re still not satisfied.”
“although the script is well written, do you really think your script will be popr? Other than ourpany, I’m afraid no otherpany wille to take your script.” Zhao Rui flipped through Lin Fan’s script.
“Lin Fan, if youe knocking again, I’ll push the price down to 400,000. 400,000 for a script is not a small sum of money,” Zhao Rui said confidently.
In her opinion, the script’s story was pretty good, but Lin Fan was still a neer.
If one wanted to film a good television drama, it wasn’t enough just with the script. Was the script provided by a neer really that promising? The Joy Media behind Zhao Rui didn’t really believe in Lin Fan.
At the same time, Jiaxing Entertainment and Yuehua Entertainment contacted Lin Fan.
Especially Tian Zheng from Yuehua Entertainment. He was a little nervous.
‘The script Lin Fan wrote was simply too perfect. It was such a perfect script, and it was even a script that Xia Wanqiu liked.
It had been a year, but Xia Wangqiu did not have a script that she liked.
Xia Wanqiu clearly wanted to be the female lead for this script, which meant that Tian Zheng had to buy the copyright of this script no matter what.
In order to express the sincerity of thepany, the great script master, Tian Zheng, personally came to talk to Lin Fan after receiving authorization from CEO Li.
“Mr. Lin, hello. I’m Tian Zheng from Yuehua Entertainment. Ourpany is very sincere in wanting to sign a contract with you. When would you be free to meet me?” Tian Zheng smiled.
“Hello, Teacher Tian Zheng. I’ve heard of you. The recent popr movies were all scripts written by you,” Lin Fan said with a smile. Of course he knew Tian Zheng. He had heard Xia Wanqiu mention him many times. The script master in the entertainment industry had high standards.
Yuehua Entertainment letting Tian Zheng contact him already represented how much Yuehua Entertainment valued this script and also represented Yuehua Entertainment’s sincerity. Lin Fan felt morefortable with such sincerity.
“Haha, Mr. Lin, please don’t call me teacher. The script you wrote makes me exim in admiration for the rest of my life. Compared to this script, what are my past achievements?”
“To be honest, Mr. Lin, even if thepany wants to lower the price, I will definitely not agree. Your script is too attractive. I can guarantee that once you film a television drama, it will definitely be very popr!” Tian Zheng said with a smile.
This was the love the older generation of artists had for this industry. Although Tian Zheng was in the entertainment industry, he yearned for a real script and the improvement of the entire country’s cultural level.
Furthermore, it was also because of Tian Zheng’s many scripts and Xia Wanqiu’s hard work that Xia Wangqiu’s current status was created. Lin Fan was very respectful of such an older artist.
“How about this? Jiaxing Entertainment has contacted me just now. Both of yourpanies will offer a basic price. If the price is satisfactory, we can continue discussing in detail. Teacher Tian Zheng, what do you think?” Lin Fan asked.
Although this script was prepared for the cat, whether it was Jiaxing Entertainment or Yuehua Entertainment who bought the script’s copyright, Xia Wanqiu could be the female lead. Of course, Lin Fan wouldn’t lose out.
After all, writing this script had cost Lin Fan a lot of effort. At the end of the day, everything boiled down to their offers.
And if the twopaniespeted for this script together, Lin Fan would be able to benefit the most from it.
Lin Fan would not ept an offer like Joy Media’s offer of 10,000 dors per episode. At most, Lin Fan could open his own entertainmentpany.
“alright, Mr. Lin. Let me contact youter,” Tian Zheng said. He knew that this script was written very well and it had cost Lin Fan a lot of effort. In the end, everything boiled down to the copyright fee.
On the other side, Jiaxing Entertainment’s staff were also preparing an offer for Lin Fan.
Bothpanies only had one chance to make an offer.
‘They had to state a basic price first and there would only be value if they continue the negotiations.
Jiaxing Entertainment.
“CEO Wang, Yuehua Entertainment ispeting with us. We only have one chance to make an offer. If we can buy this script, the benefits will be endless. What kind of price do you think we should offer?” the staff asked.
Jiaxing Entertainment’s boss, CEO Wang, sat there and flipped through Lin Fan’s script.
Initially, it was not up to the boss to decide on the acquisition of the script.
But… Lin Fan’s script surprised all the screenwriters of Jiaxing Entertainment.
Lin Fan’s screenwriter level had already exceeded the level of the highest level in the industry.
Even Yuehua Entertainment’s screenwriter, Tian Zheng, could notpare.
This was still because they had not seen the rest of the script. If they had seen it, they wondered what kind of expression these famous screenwriters would have.
Lin Fan was also extremely confident in his script.
CEO Wang pondered for a moment and looked at the staff. He said, “ording to the standard of the best scriptwriter in the industry, the price is 280,000 per episode. Since Yuehua Entertainment wants topete with us, we will increase the price. 300,000 per episode!”
After receiving CEO Wang’s approval, the staff of Jiaxing Entertainment replied to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan’s script had a total of 46 episodes. ording to the price of 300,000 per episode, that meant that Jiaxing Entertainment was willing to spend 13.8 million to buy the script’s copyright!
Jiaxing Entertainment fully approved of Lin Fan’s script.
On the other side, Tian Zheng was also discussing with CEO Wang of Yuehua Entertainment.
Xia Wangqiu was from Yuehua Entertainment. Xia Wanqiu would try her first rtionship scene as a female lead for this script.
In other words, Yuehua Entertainment could not lose this script no matter what.
Because this script would have three top celebrities joining it: Xia Wanqiu, Su Xiaoyu, and Xu Yang.
Especially Xia Wanqiu, who had never acted in a drama in a year. If she was confirmed to act in a new drama, who knew how many fans would be surprised.
CEO Li looked at Tian Zheng and looked at the script carefully.
“With Xia Wangiu, Su Xiaoyu, and Xu Yang acting at the same time, even if this script is ordinary, the poprity will rise unprecedentedly. Moreover, this script is so exciting, so I only have one request…”
“I must buy the copyright of this script at all costs!”
