I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 35 Copyright of Love Is Not Blind
March 2010, 3. Tomorrow is the day when the results of the preliminary examination of the Central Academy of Drama will be announced.

Today is a holiday, but Chen Jin was dragged out of bed by Su Wanyu early in the morning.

"Look what time it is now?"

"..."

Chen Jin had been "working" all night and was obviously very tired. He slumped over and yawned continuously.

This look made Su Wanyu very suspicious. What on earth did this kid do last night?
It's already 8:10. We both turned off the lights and went to bed at 10 o'clock last night. Ten and a half hours haven't you gotten enough sleep?!
"Did you play with your phone in the middle of the night while I was sleeping?"

"Chen Jin, I bought you a mobile phone just for you to play with?"

Su Wanyu snatched Chen Jin's phone and looked at the battery level and knew what this guy was up to.

With both witnesses and evidence present, Chen Jin had no way of explaining and had to rush into the bathroom.

So sometimes, it’s not that children don’t want to live with their parents, but that conflicts arise in communication, understanding, concepts, etc. It’s actually best to meet each other occasionally. Being together every day, Chen Jin is too lazy to argue with Su Wanyu.

But Su Wanyu must be worried about him being alone in the imperial capital.

Seeing Chen Jin's silence, Su Wanyu felt very strange. She thought Chen Jin would be like before and say to her with confidence - "Why not buy a new phone to play with?"
There was really nothing to do today, and Su Wanyu originally wanted to take Chen Jin to climb the Great Wall.

But Chen Jin's abnormality made Su Wanyu feel a little uncomfortable.

"Oh, forget it, my son is already so big!"

There's nothing wrong with playing with your phone. It's normal to feel fresh when you just buy it.

Su Wanyu was comforting herself, but Chen Jin was sitting on the toilet, looking at the private message from Douban's Bao Jingjing on his phone, a smile on his face.

Yesterday, Chen Jin couldn't resist the urge to purchase the copyright, and in the middle of the night she sent a private message to Bao Jingjing, the original author of the post "Love Is Not Blind".

I even looked up the other person's information in the encyclopedia.

I didn't expect that she graduated from the Department of Literature of Beijing Film Academy. It should be said that she might even be my senior in the future.

Fortunately, she is not very famous now. She just graduated from Beijing Film Academy last year and has not been in the circle. However, she relied on posting on Douban and published the novel "Love Is Not Blind".

The Grand Commander of the Eastern Wu: "Hello, have you sold the film and television rights of Love Is Not Blind?"

This was sent by Chen Jin at 2 a.m.

Early in the morning, as a senior literature surfing enthusiast of Douban and an independent writer who writes as a job, Bao Jingjing's daily routine is to get up, wash her face, eat, and then turn on the computer.

Douban is a website she must visit because many readers chat with her every day.

Since the end of last month, when CITIC Press compiled her serial posts on Douban into a book, she has gained a large number of readers, most of whom are netizens who used to read her posts on Douban.

So this website became a good place for her to spend her free time after writing every day.

"no!"

Bao Jingjing’s reply was very simple, just two words.

Because Chen Jin was not the first person to send her a private message asking about copyright issues. Although Bao Jingjing really wanted to sell it, she was different from many independent writers. She graduated from the Department of Literature of Beijing Film Academy and was very knowledgeable about film and television copyright.

Many people sent her private messages saying that they were indeed interested in buying the product, but most of them were just looking for a bargain.

Some people like to hoard film and television copyrights.

Moreover, the acquisition prices are not high. Many writers do not understand and think that they have made a profit by paying tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In fact, people can make a profit of hundreds of thousands of yuan by reselling it.

So she had to make sure of the other party's identity, the price they offered, and whether they would take the photo... Although she also knew that her novel would not be sold for much money, at most 50.

But in Bao Jingjing's heart, she has always dreamed of becoming a film and television screenwriter.

Department of Literature at Beijing Film Academy, who doesn’t want to become a famous screenwriter in the circle?

Bao Jingjing certainly wanted to, too. "Are you considering selling it? If you're in the capital, we can talk in person!"

Chen Jin replied quickly.

Bao Jingjing thought about it and didn't refuse: "Are you an individual or a company? Excuse me, what's the name of your company?"

"Personally, but I'm an actor!"

That’s right!
After all, the first role Chen Jin auditioned for was in Zhang Yimou's "Under the Hawthorn Tree". Although she didn't get the audition, how could this not count?

If you become an actor in the future, it will be a very impressive resume, right?
I was also the man who made Zhang Yimou laugh so hard, and we only talked face to face for half an hour!

Some actors have never met a director of this level in their entire lives, but Chen Jin has met one before even entering school. She has indeed surpassed many of her peers.

"Actor? Do you want to film it yourself, or?"

"Act. I'm quite interested in the novel and would like to invest in filming it myself!"

Chen Jin is telling the truth. He has bought the copyright for a movie that grossed over 3 million yuan and has a decent reputation. In the future, he will invest in the film and find a director to shoot it. Maybe he can be the leading actor!

However, the most profitable option, of course, is that the future director of this film comes to Chen Jin and works with him.

It's okay to pay for it yourself. After all, it seems that the news said that before the release of this movie, no one would have thought that it could earn 3 million yuan, and the distribution rights for 3000 million were not sold, which means that the market was not optimistic about this movie.

The investment doesn’t seem to be huge, and the title means it’s a low-budget film.

Low-cost investment generally refers to investments below 1000 million. Chen Jin spent most of the night looking up relevant information yesterday, otherwise he wouldn't be so sleepy.

"Are you done yet?"

Su Wanyu urged outside the door, and Chen Jin hurriedly said, "Okay, come out right away!"

Chen Jin washed up casually and walked out of the bathroom. Bao Jingjing sent a message quickly: "Are you also in the capital? Can we have a face-to-face meeting? If it's convenient, can you reveal your name?"

She wanted to know which actor.

Of course, Chen Jin is not in a position to reveal it, but if she gets the audition for Zhang Yimou's Under the Hawthorn Tree and it's announced in the news, then that's fine.

Now is clearly not the time.

This "senior sister" was more difficult to deal with than Chen Jin had imagined, and was very cautious.

It turns out that it’s not easy to fool people who graduated from Beijing Film Academy.

Why can't I come across such a thing as a future popular science fiction writer selling a copyright worth tens of billions for only 10 yuan in a future autobiographical movie?

"Still not strong enough!"

"If I were a film and television company or a well-known actor or director, I would probably meet them as soon as I mentioned my name!"

Sure enough, copyright is not that easy to buy.

However, Chen Jin did not gain nothing. At least it proved that the copyright of "Love Is Not Blind" was still in Bao Jingjing's hands, and she still had a chance.

"Maybe it will be easier if I audition for Under the Hawthorn Tree!"

While Chen Jin was thinking, Su Wanyu beside him said, "Son, are we going to the Great Wall?"

"go with!"

Anyway, the Champions League match will be in two days, so the sports lottery shop is not in a hurry for now.

His top priority now is to prepare for the re-examinations at Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama, and to wait for a call from Zhang Yimou.

As for the announcement of the results of the Central Academy of Drama tomorrow, Chen Jin is still very confident.

Not to mention getting first place, getting into the top five should be no problem, right?
The candidates for the Central Academy of Dramatic Art School are stronger than those for the Beijing Film Academy, so Chen Jin should be modest!
