"What did you say? The script...you wrote the script?"
Song Wen was going crazy. What did he hear? In addition to writing novels, Jiang Yulou can also write drama scripts?
It doesn't matter if you can write scripts, the scripts you write are also on the stage of human art.
This is human art!
However, he didn't think there was anything wrong with the plot. On the contrary, the plot of the drama "Famous" was particularly good and full of suspense. Even though the story was over, he still felt that there were still many things in the plot that had not been shown.
It's just a pity that the stage format of the drama did not leave him enough time to think.
He felt deeply regretful in the theater before that because of limited time, he could not watch Renyi's plays every day.
But turning around, he actually learned this shocking news from Teacher Jiang.
"It was by chance that I wrote this script." Jiang Yulou explained briefly.
After listening, Song Wen sighed repeatedly that such a wonderful story actually originated from a gambling game.
"Teacher Jiang, your script is so well written and has a first-rate suspense atmosphere. If it could be adapted into a novel..." Song Wen was stunned when he said this. Yes, such a good story, why can't it be adapted into a novel? ?
Moreover, with Jiang Yulou's writing skills, adapting his own script will not be a problem at all.
This play is so great that it would definitely cause a sensation if it were adapted into a novel!
If Harvest can publish Teacher Jiang's works again, the sales volume...
Thinking of this, Song Wen's eyes lit up and his heart beat violently.
"Teacher Jiang, can we find a place to sit and talk?"
He didn't want to give up this opportunity, especially since he was the editor of Harvest and the first person to discover this amazing inside story.
"This..." Jiang Yulou did not answer, but gave Tang Yuewen a troubled look.
Tang Yuewen held his hand and said considerately: "I will go with you. Don't miss such a good opportunity."
"Okay, but give me some time. I'm going to the theater to say hello." Jiang Yulou said.
He is a member of the main creative team, and his performance was so successful that he had to go backstage to congratulate everyone.
Song Wen said quickly: "I'll wait for you at the door."
Jiang Yulou went to the backstage of the theater, and Ouyang Shou said some congratulations to the actors and left.
"Let's go, I know a place that's perfect for sitting down and talking slowly."
The place Jiang Yulou was talking about was a cafe.
Song Wen is from Shanghai and is no stranger to coffee, but this is his first time drinking coffee in a coffee shop in Yanjing, so he is inevitably a little curious.
Naturally, the furnishings of this store cannot be compared with those that Jiang Yulou visited in his previous life, but in this era, it is considered to be synonymous with trendiness.
Naturally, ordinary people cannot afford to spend money here, but foreigners and wealthy people like to come here.
The three of them found a table in the corner and sat down. The corner was quieter and suitable for communication.
After ordering three cups of coffee and waiting for the clerk to leave, Song Wen talked about his thoughts, "Teacher Jiang, do you intend to adapt your book "Famous" into a novel?"
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Yulou nervously, fearing that the other party would reject him without even thinking.
Jiang Yulou asked instead, "Editor Song, what do you think?"
"Teacher Jiang, it would be a pity not to adapt such a good work into a novel so that more readers can see it. If you adapt it into a novel, we will be willing to publish your work." At this point, Song Wen was sincere. He added, "Don't worry, Harvest will be able to give you a remuneration that satisfies you."
Jiang Yulou tapped his fingers on the table, thinking.
He has already finished writing the novel "Famous". The reason why he has not submitted it to the contemporary era is because he does not want to compete with his own work.
In his mind, the cooperation with Contemporary has been going well, and there has been no unpleasant incident, and he has never thought about switching to another magazine.
It's not that cooperation created feelings, it's that he has always been a person who is afraid of trouble.
Communication is not convenient in this era, and the Contemporary editorial department is in Yanjing. Submitting articles to Contemporary will undoubtedly save him a lot of unnecessary trouble, allowing him to concentrate on his creation.
However, Song Wen, the editor of the harvest, unexpectedly appeared before he submitted the article. It suddenly occurred to him that maybe it would be a good idea to submit "Famous" to other magazines.
It is very convenient to always invest in one magazine, but it also has disadvantages. If you don't cooperate with other magazines, what if one day you are taken advantage of by Contemporary.
This is not impossible. Even though he has brought a lot of benefits to the contemporary generation, it is precisely because of the benefits that it is more likely to cause discord with him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yulou said slowly: "I have finished writing the novel "Famous", and I have also thought about publishing it."
"Great, Teacher Jiang, please give us this opportunity to harvest!" Song Wen said excitedly.
He wished that Teacher Jiang would agree to his proposal now. He really needed a best-selling author like Jiang Yulou.
Since Harvest Magazine was founded in Shanghai, it was inevitable to see too many excellent literary works from abroad.
These works are all excellent. Some works are very literary, while some novels may be less literary, but their popularity far outweighs their shortcomings.
Often, popular novels are more likely to become bestsellers.
After the arrival of the literary era, there is no shortage of literary works, but there is a lack of popular works with best-selling potential. Harvest has been thinking of ways, but there are too few popular novel writers, and among those who can write best-sellers, who can compare to Jiang Yulou across the country?
It's just that Jiang Yulou has collaborated with Dangdai on several works, so it's difficult to recruit him.
Not to mention poaching, as long as you can get a manuscript, the harvest will take off.
You know, Jiang Yulou's "Yellow Earth", which was not very popular, made the "Harvest" issue sell out.
Nowadays, Jiang Yulou's writing power is even better than before, and his novels are obviously more popular and more attractive.
Jiang Yulou asked: "Don't we need to discuss it with your magazine?"
"No, I'm in Yanjing. Just give me the manuscript and I'll take it to Balao immediately. As long as Balao nods, there will be no problem in publishing it." Song Wen replied confidently.
Jiang Yulou said: "In principle, there is no problem, but whether to publish it in Harvest depends on the sincerity of your magazine."
"Teacher Jiang, I will convince Balao to give you a higher remuneration for the number of print runs while the highest basic remuneration remains unchanged." Song Wen gritted his teeth and promised.
Jiang Yulou raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "I hope Editor Song can surprise me."
After that, Jiang Yulou sent Tang Yuewen home, then took out the written manuscript and handed it to Song Wen.
