What should I do if the system forces me to copy books?

In the world, it is normal to have different hobbies.As a native boy, Li Chungang has been assimilated to the north for a long time, but he still insists on some living habits, just like northerners like to go to the bathhouse to take a bath, he also I like to use the shower gel when I take a shower to make it more comfortable.

The dormitory building after the lunch break is already very lively. Some people like to sing while washing up. Under the light of the morning sun, they look particularly...unfortunate!

"Mr. Li, you are taking a bath and you are dressed so formally. Which fan girl are you going to have a secret tryst with? Let me tell you that as the head of the 404 dormitory, I need to educate you on what is 'male virtue', If you don't have a reasonable explanation, don't blame me for making a small report with my younger siblings!" Su Yu pretended to ask, because of his weird talent, to be honest, it's true that he engages in programming and doesn't sign up for Deyun Club A bit of a waste of talent.

Li Chungang in front of him is wearing a retro national style shirt with black on the outside and white on the inside. He looks very elegant like a master of a generation. He has a handsome face and long legs, and he is also a literary god. It is almost standard for idol dramas!

It would be even more fanciful if Zuo Qingcang and Right Qianhuang came here.

At first, Li Chungang didn't like to wear this kind of retro national style shirts. He tried to wear them purely because He Miao picked them for himself, and it was because of this time that he fell in love with wearing this kind of clothes. Under normal circumstances, it is still mainly casual clothes, and only in some more formal occasions will it be taken out as a "battle suit".

Because of this, the original suits in the closet disappeared and were replaced by this kind of retro national style shirts. The difference is that the patterns knitted on the shirts are different from the text.

The ones he wears are not the ones that are more than a hundred and tens of dollars from a certain treasure, but they are specially processed by experienced craftsmen later, not only considering the comfort of wearing, but also deliberately leaving a unique mark on the shirt. , such as the flowing cloud pattern on the corners and sleeves of the clothes, the knitted four characters "Zhi Chun Zhi Gang" and so on...

"You're half right. Dating is dating, but it's not me dating, but helping my work to date, hoping to find a good partner for it."

Not surprisingly, the producer of Universal Pictures who was in charge of the negotiations should have arrived in Yanjing smoothly, and will contact Wensi Quanyong after checking in at the reserved hotel and taking a short rest.

As for Li Chungang himself, he had to take another afternoon class before passing, so there was not much time left for him to go back and change his clothes.

Chen Cang asked with some incomprehension: "What do you want to express, to date the work? It means that you have the copyright of the work to authorize?"

"A Hollywood company came to talk about the film and television copyright of "Lord of the Rings". The situation is still unclear. I will talk to you in detail when the contract is actually signed." Secretly spread out, but there is really nothing to say, so far there is nothing dry.

But Li Chungang didn't know it. In fact, for ordinary people, the simple words "Hollywood Company" are already full of dry goods.

Want to know which writer's work in China is worthy of a Hollywood company to come and discuss film and television copyright in person?

Su Yu nodded again and again: "It's good to shoot. I think the scenes of fantasy movies like "The Lord of the Rings" should be more shocking and magnificent, and I also read your book in my spare time. It seems that you are When I was creating it, I was rushing to adapt it for film and television, and when it comes to the details in the book, Chun Gang, you are really meticulous!"

"What are you talking about? It's not that you haven't seen it, I'm just afraid that taking it out will hurt everyone's self-esteem."

Don't look at programmers and writers as two professions that have nothing to do with each other, but they still have something in common.For example, if programmers want to sell their programmed programs at a good price, they must make the code as detailed as possible and make the functions as perfect as possible; similarly, writers want to sell their works at a good price , also make the content as detailed as possible, so that others can see its potential value at a glance!

Several people in the 404 dormitory talked and laughed and walked towards their respective teaching buildings, and the topic quietly turned to the recent gossip in the school.

Just as the topics among women can never be separated from cosmetics and bags, the eternal topic among men is-beauty!

"Master, I heard you right, are you going on a date?"

A familiar classmate suddenly overtook from behind and asked curiously: "I remember you announced your love affair on Weibo?"

"It's not that I'm going on a date, no, I'm going on a date, but the main object of the date is my work, not what you think."

At this moment, the classmate was finally relieved: "That's good! I also said that if it is true, I can give the female students in our class a chance."

At this time, Su Yu smirked and said: "Student, I think your motives are not pure. What are you doing to help the female students in the class win opportunities? Young Master has an idea!"

"Stop, stop, stop, the topic you are talking about is very dangerous. If you are gay among gays, don't drag me, so as not to affect my reputation. If it gets out, a group of Vajra Barbies will come to your door. See if I don't want you two The guy settles the score."

Li Chungang quickly stopped the conversation, otherwise, these two people probably couldn't help driving.

"Why are you nervous, I'm just talking casually." Su Yu laughed, making the students passing by on both sides of the school road gather their eyes here.

"To shut up!!!"

At the same time, Evans, who flew all the way from Los Angeles, was coming out of the airport under the leadership of the staff of Universal Pictures Huaguo.

This is the first time he has come to Huaguo, and after stepping on the land of Huaguo, he suddenly realized that all of this is far from the backward and poor scene he imagined. The airport is not inferior to the airport in Los Angeles, and it is even worse if you look deeper.

Although he already knew that this place had become the second largest box office market in the world very early on, and the growth rate of the box office was still refreshing, but the current capital of China, Yanjing, made him admire.

"It took Yanjing decades to catch up with our hundreds of years of development, but this is a city that ingeniously blends modernity and history. The closer you go to the city center, the older the buildings are, with a sense of historical precipitation."

I didn't come to Huaguo in person, and I didn't know that the media reporters in the U.S. country were such a "crap", and what they reported on weekdays were all nonsense.

Rodnick, who came to China several years earlier than Evans, is now acting as a tour guide. Universal Pictures has a large layout in the Asia-Pacific region or mainly in China, and Rodnick is actually the theme of Universal Studios in Yanjing. The main person in charge of the park's construction is not someone from the film department.

In this way, the risk of the operation being leaked will be much smaller.

The two of them had a good relationship with each other when they were still in Los Angeles. In addition, they both graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, one of the Ivy League universities in the United States. Although they are not majors, they are alumni from the same school. Working in the same company, it is inevitable that there will be more common topics.

"It's unbelievable. This country is still developing at a high speed. No wonder there is such a powerful writer as Li Chungang. My friend, you must know Li Chungang, right?" Evans asked, wanting to find out about the "local people" What is Li Chungang in his eyes?

Rodnick made an exaggerated and strange voice while driving: "In China, it is estimated that only people who live alone in the mountains and forests will not know this person. He is very famous in China, with a huge fan base, probably like Hua The Chinese version of Justin Bieber. Their college entrance examination is somewhat similar to the SAT. In that exam, he scored the highest in a city. After that, he published his debut novel "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" on the Internet. In China, this work It has been adapted into a popular TV series of the same name..."

Now that they have been asked, Rodnick simply started talking about Li Chungang's journey of becoming famous!

Strictly speaking, he has been in Huaguo for many years. Not only has he gotten used to the life here, he has also gradually learned to speak a few sentences of daily Chinese. In life or on the Internet, he is the person who has heard the most times. There will always be news coming from time to time, and it is impossible not to understand it over time.

"Now you may only know that he wrote "The Lord of the Rings", which is very famous in the United States and even in the world, but in fact, he still has many works in China, which are the kind with strong Chinese culture and oriental flavor. Perhaps Some people have never read his books, but they must know such a person. Dude, do you know how many people like Li Chungang in a short period of time just by posting a Weibo? Just simply published one of his works As a result, more than 3000 million people liked the update plan, and the short answer became popular!

It can be said that your plan to buy the film and television copyright of "The Lord of the Rings" this time is a very wise choice. Other countries in the world dare not say it, but it is in Huaguo, right here. As long as you make it, I can guarantee it The minimum box office is one billion or more! "

Evans didn't interrupt his friend's talk, but was thinking in his heart whether he could impress Li Chungang with the chips in his hand.

Because there are too many "variables" that may appear in this, and if he wants to complete everything between the intervention of other Hollywood giants, time is the biggest obstacle.

Don't look at the fact that this young writer only has "Lord of the Rings" in the world, but this book alone is enough for him to win countless honors and titles around the world, Perhaps the best true portrayal of it is a book becoming famous, which also makes it impossible for Evans to dig out the other party like he digs out the unknown writer.

It's about showing enough interests and full sincerity to take over the copyright of this series!

Now that he has decided to win the "Lord of the Rings" sequence to make a movie, and even hopes to further develop it into a unique movie universe in the future, then monopolizing the entire film and television copyright is the basis of all this, otherwise it can only be used as a wedding dress for others. A Hollywood studio would be so stupid.

"In the grid of the co-pilot, there is a little information I simply collected. I don't know if you can use the content in it. Maybe you have done research in advance." As the person in charge, Rodnick's daily work requires How leisurely and leisurely it is, and in addition to learning some Chinese after so many years of living, it took me a little time to come up with such a thing.

"I don't know what to say, but thank you so much!"

The information Evans asked his assistant to collect was not complete, because there were invisible network barriers between the two countries, so that it was impossible to collect too much detailed information on the other side in China, and the statistics were all based on Google Search volume, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter followers, book sales in the US, etc...

He opened the document and found that there were simple English remarks next to many Chinese characters that he could not understand.

For example, the rating of "The Lord of the Rings" on Douban Reading, he couldn't understand the printed evaluation, but 1.2 million people rated it, and the rating was stable at 9.6 points, infinitely close to the full score of 10 points, which is still understandable.

"His book's reputation in China was not particularly high at the beginning. It may be because of fantasy works and the identities of the protagonists. In addition, the early content does have a bit of long and continuous description, and the overall rhythm is biased. Slow, it is the type that needs to calm down and read quietly. Anyway, I personally like to read it very much. I also hope that our company can obtain the film and television copyright of this work, so that it may be available in the theme park of Universal Studios. A few more key projects can be added!"

Rodnick said this completely from the perspective of work. Judging from what he has seen so far, there are too many scenes in "Lord of the Rings" that are indeed suitable for moving to theme parks.

Who wouldn't want to run into some noble elves in Rivendell?

Or how about a few drinks with your enthusiastic, alcoholic dwarf friends?

These are the real places that can bring huge benefits to Universal theme parks!

No matter how extravagant the two talk to each other, no matter how beautiful the picture they imagined, it is just their wishful thinking. Before the copyright of the author Li Chungang is obtained, all this will eventually be a dream come true Or the shattered dream is still unknown.

Chapter 588

Respecting teachers is a fine tradition handed down from the long history of the Chinese nation.

Even though Li Chungang has long been famous, and even has more personal achievements than most of the professors teaching in the school, even so, even if these professors treat him differently in private, they still do their best in class , I want to impart my knowledge as much as possible!

Li Chungang was concentrating on listening to the lecture, but Xu Xinnian, who was sitting by the side, took the initiative to poke him with his elbow, lowered his head and covered his mouth with his hands and whispered: "Congratulations, my god..."

"???"

(Nick Young black question mark face)

"Thank you!"

No matter what happened, since the other party has already congratulated you, it is definitely okay to say thank you politely.

However, I obviously didn't do anything, just sat in the classroom and went to class, why did Xu New Year stare at me with a look of "you are so amazing"!

He was very dazed, obviously the most commendable thing these days is the Lord of the Rings thing, but it has been more than a week, and congratulations should have been congratulated long ago, how could it be impossible to congratulate all of a sudden now? Come to think of it, what exactly happened to make people feel worthy of congratulations?

"Could it be that the film and television copyright of "Lord of the Rings" was leaked by Hollywood film and television companies? Or is it that the Lord of the Rings broke some other record?"

Li Chungang, who was suddenly congratulated by Xu New Year, was particularly confused. Could it be that something happened that he didn't know?

With so many questions in his mind, he couldn't continue to concentrate on listening to the class. He quietly lowered his head and took out his mobile phone. He opened WeChat and found Lin Meng to send a message: "Senior sister, is there any big news about me now?"

After sending it out, I quickly put the phone back inside the desk, for fear of being seen by the professor, not because I am afraid of being caught by the professor, but because I can have it, but it is not necessary.

Six 7 minutes later.

The mobile phone hidden inside the desk vibrated, and after Li Chungang unlocked the phone's lock screen with his fingerprint, he saw Lin Meng's reply: "No, the outside world is as usual, the weather is calm, why do you ask?"

He has been looking down at his mobile phone frequently, and now he can only hold back his curiosity, so as not to be regarded as a typical education.

Anyway, since Xu New Year said that, there must be a reason, and it's okay if he can't find the reason for the time being. Anyway, this guy can't escape, and he will find out when he asks when the courseware is on break.

—

In Wensi Quanyong's company, Lin Meng didn't hear from Li Chungang for a long time, and she didn't understand what it meant at all for a while, or did this guy cause some big news without her noticing? ?

But don't be a scandal about being gay or learning a foreign language!

"Siqian, the boss shouldn't be on any news now, right? You can help me check it carefully on the Internet immediately. Also, not only check the domestic ones, but also check the foreign ones, and give me whatever you find. Say."

Lin Meng didn't want Li Chungang to have any scandals, which was obviously a ticking time bomb for the upcoming negotiations.

Even now he has some conspiracy theories. Could it be that Universal Pictures deliberately made trouble at this point in time to disrupt their rhythm, so as to quickly finalize the deal.

"If that's the case, it's got to be a tough one."

After receiving the task, Liu Siqian quickly found a colleague from the Ministry of Culture to carry out a division of labor. One searched for domestic news, and the other logged onto a "ladder" to climb over the wall and Google searched for foreign ones. The two worked together to search quickly.

"What kind of things do we need to check for this sudden and thoughtless thing? The news I see here are all routine, basically all reports around "Lord of the Rings", and a few reports are mocking failure The author Keppel Ron's "Lost in Time and Space" hypes up the topic and creates heat, and it seems that it is not particularly new and worthy of attention when it comes and goes."

"Yeah, there's not much movement abroad, but some people praised his books for being good-looking, and the content they found were either book reviews or news a few days ago. Could it be that Lin always felt that the boss's exposure rate was too low, and was going to replace him Is the boss doing a good job?"

Liu Siqian was a little dazed and kept the collected content one by one. She thought of something at this time, and then opened Weibo to search for super chat and trending searches. Sometimes news on Weibo spread faster than normal news reports. They have to come quickly and in a timely manner, maybe the answers they want can be found here as they wish.

However, Weibo's hot search list and hot topics seem to be calm. Most of the stars in the entertainment circle are fighting for attention. The only thing that can be said to be a major event in the near future is a certain "Xin" anchor who has just expired. The high-profile road closure was exposed on the Internet after it was released, causing a great commotion, but it has nothing to do with Li Chungang!

From the top of the hot search to the bottom, Liu Siqian searched slowly, but she couldn't find any movement, so there was really no way out.

So she had no choice but to gather up all the results and package them up and send them to Lin Meng. After finishing the work, she was still a little apprehensive.

In the general manager's office, Lin Meng quickly browsed through the information. At this time, she had exactly the same thoughts as Liu Siqian.

However, in less than 2 minutes, when Liu Siqian was visiting Li Chungang's official forum, Emperor Tian paid off, and she finally found a clue in a post on the gossip forum!

"What the hell is this Weibo literature voting event? When did it appear? The boss's No.1 seems to have no suspense at all. It has more than 4000 million votes, and who voted for these votes?"

As Li Chungang's personal company, Wen Siquanyong has no idea when the Weibo literature voting activity started. Before that, there was no notice, no activity label, and no sign of publicity. The same crudely made goods.

She quickly asked her colleagues to open Weibo on another computer, and then searched for Weibo literature-related pages, and found that this was actually an online selection of "Annual Most Popular Writers" initiated by the Weibo literature version.

This selection is similar to the "Most Popular Male Celebrity of the Year" and "Most Popular Female Celebrity of the Year" that are held every year on the Weibo main page...

It's just that I haven't heard of the selection of "Most Popular Writers" before.

【2022 vote for the most popular writer in your mind】

On this page, writers of all types are on the list, some write fantasy stories, some write history, some write about sports competitions, love affairs, chicken soup books, and even writers who have announced that they have closed their pens are also on the list.

Regardless of whether it is published by the entity or serialized on the Internet, you can see traces on it. This list almost includes the more popular writers in recent years.

But judging by the current situation——

This selection activity initiated by Weibo Literature does not seem to have a lot of traffic, and why did Li Chungang's votes surpass the dust, which is a whole digit more than the latter one?

In addition, among the writers currently on the list, almost all of them are online novel writers whose works have been popular in the past two years, and those novel writers who publish in physical form can participate in one or two of them from time to time, while those purely traditional literature writers Writers... are few and far between.

Very helpless, but also very true!

Liu Siqian did not jump to conclusions. She continued to search on Weibo for topics related to the "2022 Vote for the Most Popular Writers" event, and found that only fans of the relatively famous young writer Guo Xiaowu had set up a voting group. , which has been sending related news.

This Guo Xiaowu used to be well-known in the domestic literary world. He followed the path of publishing literature, and the works he created were all the rage at the time. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Later, he was exposed as "plagiarism", "plagiarism" "Bronze Smelting", "Male Adding Male" and other shocking melons, the word-of-mouth among readers and fans collapsed in an avalanche. Even though they later moved to the entertainment industry to save some face by writing and directing their own movies, these have been disregarded. The labels that are artificially attached to the body are not so easy to wash off.

In China, Yu Zhen and Yu Zhen are collectively known as "the duo who refuse to admit plagiarism"!

Because the publicity is almost zero, the vast majority of readers of writers feel that this is a small scene created by Weibo literature, and they are too lazy to vote, and almost no one takes it seriously.

It's a pity that some of Guo Xiaowu's die-hard fans took it seriously. Although he was no longer the best-selling author at the beginning, he took it seriously as a best-selling author on the sales list of published works. Without eating or drinking, he managed to get to the top five.

If that's the way it is, there's obviously nothing wrong with it, it's just a past writer entertaining himself.

But who would have thought that things would change because of the appearance of a spoiler.

You Jiaxu, an internet-addicted young man who was fighting in the League of Legends summer competition, did not know where he found out about this vote, and tried to secretly vote for Li Chungang, but was automatically shared by the evil Weibo!

People outside the e-sports circle may not know the weight of the words "You Jiaxu", but he is the man who led the "Starship Troopers" to win the global League of Legends finals for three consecutive years The player selected as the "FMVP", as the one with the most followers among e-sports professional players, You Jiaxu's Weibo suddenly has a voting content, and his fans will naturally pay special attention.

Speaking up:

He has an indissoluble bond with Li Chungang. As the No.1 in the history of League of Legends, the winner of the Grand Slam of Honor, winning the championship for three consecutive years has given him a sense of disgust for the game League of Legends, and it has already sprouted. thought of retirement.

You must know that as the soul of the "Galaxy" club and this team, You Jiaxu's departure undoubtedly means the disintegration of a dynasty.
