Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 921 Not a single hand in paper

If you hold "Blind Spot" in your own hands, this series will not be adapted for film and television for at least five years, otherwise Zhang Zhong will not sell the film and television adaptation rights of "Blind Spot".

If in the end 500 million copies are packaged and sold together for five years, it will not make much money. On average, it will be more than 1000 million copies.

On average, the annual film and audio adaptation fee for a book is only more than 200 million yuan, which is very small for Zhang Zhong's current level.

However, Zhang Zhong has many conditions for selling film and television adaptation rights, including script adaptation must first pass the original author's purpose, otherwise Zhang Zhong said he would not shoot it.

So buying the copyright of Zhang Zhong's works is risky. If Zhang Zhong makes things difficult for them, they have nothing to do.

If Zhang Zhong added a three-year broadcast period for the film, it would take less than five years, but only three years, to recover the copyright.

Of course, as long as the other party doesn't go too far, it's impossible for Zhang Zhong to do such a thing.

And others also knew that Zhang Zhong would not do such a thing, so they dared to come and buy his copyright.

Hyde Film and Television Company is headquartered in Yanjing, and it is also a well-known company in the industry. The two parties had contacted once before because of the film and television adaptation of "Harry Potter".

However, Zhang Zhong had no idea of ​​selling "Harry Potter" at that time, so the cooperation between the two parties did not come to fruition.

Under normal circumstances, when the company sells copyrights, it will also select partners very strictly. If the other party is not a big company, even if the money is higher, it will not be considered.

Because there are many second-hand dealers in the film and television industry now, some people may spend money to buy the copyright first, and then use some means to hype it for a period of time, and then sell the script at a high price to earn the difference in the middle price.

Even though the copyright contract signed at the beginning clearly stipulates that the copyright cannot be resold, these second-hand traffickers can still find loopholes.

Yu Dongyu suffered a loss before.

It wasn’t long before Yu Dongyu became famous at that time, someone set up a leather bag company to find him to buy the copyright, and told him a lot of hype, and finally Yu Dongyu was bewitched and sold the copyright, hoping that the other party can produce film and television dramas as soon as possible .

But this dragged on for several years, until Yu Dongyu's fame rose to a higher level, the second-hand dealer took the opportunity to resell the copyright of the film and television adaptation of the work.

The copyright fee of 200 million yuan became 1000 million yuan when it was resold, with a net profit of 800 million yuan in the middle.

The most exasperating thing is that the second person who bought the copyright made a mess of the movie, made a lot of money and ran away.

Some people say that Yu Dongyu was too naive at the time, believed the other party's words, and did not set a restrictive treaty.

Some people also said that the second-hand businessman had a good eye and had seen Yu Dongyu's potential long ago, so he was able to hoard it.

Moreover, second-hand businessmen are also taking risks. If Yu Dongyu doesn't become popular later, the 200 million yuan will be in vain.

In Zhang Zhong's view, these are all nonsense. Although Yu Dongyu was not as popular as he is now, the film and television adaptation rights of his work sold for 200 million yuan, which is not expensive at all.

Even if Yu Dongyu didn't have any brilliant works later on, that work would still sell for at least 200 million more, and there would be no loss of money at all.

As for Yu Dongyu's innocence, it is indeed true. He had just become famous not long ago, so he didn't expect these things to happen, and because he was in a hurry to make his works film and television, he suffered a disadvantage.

But simplicity is not the reason for others to lie to him, this kind of cheating second-hand trafficker deserves to die.

……

Early the next morning, Zhang Zhong went to Shizhong College. The college had an exam today, and he had to invigilate the exam.

At that time, there were few teachers in the middle school, and the exams were intensive, so Zhang Zhong assigned himself some tasks of proctoring the exams.

When Zhang Zhong arrived in the classroom, many students had already arrived.

The students were originally chatting in groups of three or four, and when they saw Zhang Zhong approaching, they greeted him one after another.

"Principal, you are the invigilator for this exam."

The name of the invigilator will not be written on the exam notification form in advance, so the students only know that Zhang Zhong is here to invigilate the exam.

Zhang Zhong said with a smile, "Well, I'm here to invigilate the exam. I'm usually not very active in class, but the exam came quite early, you guys, there is still half an hour before the exam, and you all came almost in time."

In fact, Zhang Zhong has no position to say this, because as long as it is his class, the students go early, otherwise they may not be able to find a seat.

However, what Zhang Zhong said made sense. If it wasn't for Zhang Zhong's class, under normal circumstances, few students would arrive at the classroom more than half an hour earlier.

The attendance rate of Shizhong College is very high. If it is some other schools that are slightly worse, it is considered good for students to arrive at the classroom on time. It is just a dream to ask them to come early.

Zhang Zhong sat on the podium and didn't check the table for cheat sheets.

On the one hand, he is quite reassuring about the students, on the other hand, the modern Chinese literature exam they are taking today is relatively difficult, and it is not easy to cheat.

Even if Zhang Zhong opened it up for them to make a cheat sheet on the desktop, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to copy anything.

Moreover, college students usually cheat in exams in order not to fail their subjects. For example, students in Shizhong College basically do not have this kind of situation. Their goals are higher, and they cannot be achieved by cheating.

It was not until 5 minutes before the test that Zhang Zhong got the test paper from the test paper teacher and distributed it to the students.

The exam time for this course is two hours, it should be said that there is plenty of time.

Although the difficulty of the test paper is relatively high, it only has [-] points on the paper, and there are very few questions.

Those who can write can finish it quickly, and those who can't write can finish it in an hour and a half even if it is nonsense.

After Zhang Chong handed out the test papers, he looked at the time. He estimated that he would be able to collect the test papers and get off work in an hour and a half at most.

Zhang Zhong would not be idle for an hour and a half. He took out his pen and notebook and began to sort out the lesson plans for the next semester.

The existing teaching plans are all centered on Zhu Guangqian's talk about aesthetics, and some other things have been added in the middle, but they have not been systematic. He is going to organize them carefully and try to bring something different to the students in the next semester.

After writing for about an hour, Zhang Zhong looked up at the students below, quite surprised, because no one handed in the paper after an hour passed.

Zhang Zhong shook his head, maybe the test papers this time are really difficult, so the students did it very slowly.

However, half an hour later, an hour and a half had passed since the exam time, and there was still no paper handed in.

This is really very strange, even if the test papers are difficult, it won't be like now that there are no papers handed in.
