At the end of the day, Zhong Yu made great progress in revising the script, and had completed revisions of 200,000 words.
Although the changes were significant, there were still many elements in the original script that could have been directly copied and pasted.
Moreover, his typing speed has increased even faster as his proficiency has improved, reaching about 30,000 words an hour!
At around 4 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, Zhong Yu completed the revision of the script.
The new script not only has a different beginning, many plot dialogue scenes have been changed, but also a lot of plots have been added. The word count has increased from about 400,000 words to more than 500,000 words, and several additional episodes have been added.
Zhong Yu read it carefully from beginning to end and was basically satisfied.
However, he was not blindly confident and decided to ask someone to help him take a look.
If you think carefully about the friends around you, Shen Qiu is the one who is related to the cultural industry.
So, he picked up his cell phone and called Shen Qiu.
The call was quickly connected, and Shen Qiu's teasing and complaining voice came: "Oh, you are finally willing to call me."
"Haha, you have a lot of things to do all day long, aren't I afraid of disturbing your work?" Zhong Yu explained with a smile.
It was you who told me not to call you when nothing happened before, but now you are blaming me.
Shen Qiu: "When did I become the leader of the country?"
After the two chatted for a few minutes, Zhong Yu asked, "Are you free recently?"
"What a coincidence, I'm free these days." Shen Qiu smiled.
Zhong Yu: "Then let's have dinner together tonight?"
"Okay. I'll drive to pick you up at six o'clock." Shen Qiu responded readily.
After ending the call, Zhong Yu went to the printing shop in the school to print out the new script.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Zhong Yu waited for Shen Qiu's car at the school gate.
When he got into the passenger seat, Shen Qiu immediately noticed the new script manuscript in his hand.
After starting the car and merging into the driveway, Shen Qiu asked: "What is that in your hand?"
"Script draft." Zhong Yu said, "The company is planning to invest in the filming of an online drama."
Shen Qiu couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't your company an e-sports club? Why did it change to filming online dramas?"
Zhong Yu briefly introduced the company's new strategy.
After hearing this, Shen Qiu found it unbelievable and reminded: "Take it easy, be careful not to pull the balls."
"Don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion." Zhong Yu smiled and said, "I'm not good at reading scripts. Can you help me read it?"
Shen Qiu responded: "No problem."
So Zhong Yu gave the manuscript to Shen Qiu.
Looking for a place to eat, the two of them chatted and laughed for an hour and a half.
Of course it was Shen Qiu who paid the bill.
After coming out of the hotel, the two of them did nothing else. Shen Qiu sent Zhong Yu directly back to Shanghai University.
Shen Qiu was very concerned about Zhong Yu's affairs. After returning home, he immediately picked up the script and read it carefully.
After reading it carefully, she couldn't help being attracted by the script and read a third of it in one go.
If it weren't for twelve o'clock in the evening, she would definitely continue watching.
The next morning, Shen Qiu called Zhong Yu and asked for an electronic version of the script, and planned to find a famous screenwriter to help review it.
She felt that the script "We Are the Champions" was very interesting, especially the heroine Yang Wei's description was very good and attractive, so she asked more professional people to review the script.
When Zhong Yu heard this, of course he wanted it, and immediately sent the electronic version of the script to Shen Qiu.
On Friday, Team Yuteng finally returned to work after traveling abroad and resumed normal training.
Tang Hongling also returned to the club, she needs to study and train.
Zhong Yu had already read the so-called "Qingyou's Fatal Weakness" and made a comprehensive training and improvement plan for Tang Hongling.
On Saturday afternoon, Zhong Yu and Shen Qiu met for coffee.
After returning the script manuscript to Zhong Yu, Shen Qiu said seriously: "Let me tell you my personal feelings first. I think this script is very good-looking, light-hearted, funny, and constantly witty."
"What attracts me the most is the character of the heroine Yang Wei. Her original family is unfortunate and her life is unfortunate, but she can still remain optimistic and positive. I almost cried."
"I'm really looking forward to it being made into a TV series."
Zhong Yu nodded.
Shen Qiu continued: "I asked the famous screenwriter Mr. Liu Hong to help review the manuscript. His opinion is that the script is a good script, the characters are plump and three-dimensional, especially the heroine, full of tension. The dialogues in the plot are witty and lively, with a sense of modern youth, conveying Positive energy.”
"The shortcomings are that the main and branch plots of the script are not deep enough, the plot lacks tension and is too smooth, the thinking is not deep enough, and overall it is a bit immature."
"I agree more." Zhong Yu nodded and said, "Thank you."
He then laughed and said: "We are using this script to shoot idol web dramas, and it is enough."
After separating from Shen Qiu, Zhong Yu called Xu Qingcheng: "Mr. Xu, please contact the screenwriter and buy the entire script, including the adaptation rights."
"Have you found someone to revise the script?" Xu Qingcheng asked.
Zhong Yu smiled and said, "That's right."
Xu Qingcheng: "I will talk to the screenwriter tomorrow."
The next Sunday, Zhong Yu was not idle because the club was going to hold a grand fan reception.
All team members are required to participate.
Half a month ago, the Yuteng team officially became a KPL team, which is of great significance and deserves a grand return to the fans for their support.
Outside the company gate, many fans came in advance and lined up at dawn.
When it was officially opened to receive fans, there was a huge crowd outside the company gate, all of them very loyal fans.
However, the space is limited and we cannot receive them all at once, but can only receive them in batches.
In the reception hall, Zhong Yu, Tang Hongling, Bing Feng, Jian Zi and others signed on the spot with pens, and their hands almost broke when they signed.
In addition to signatures, there are also photos.
Finally, lucky fans will be drawn to play interactive friendly games with the Yuteng team, etc.
At the end of the day, everyone in the Yuteng team was very tired, but the results were impressive.
Through online and offline interactions, Yuteng Team’s peripheral souvenirs once again sold very hotly, exceeding the first fan reception event.
But it was said that Xu Qingcheng approached screenwriter Dai He to discuss buying out the script.
The two met and talked. When the screenwriter heard that Xu Qingcheng wanted to completely buy out the script, including the adaptation rights, he immediately guessed what was going on.
"One million." Dai He offered the price, "There is another condition. After the script is given to you, you can adapt it however you like, but after the film is made, the screenwriter cannot write my name, especially in publicity. name."
He is a person who cherishes feathers, and the reputation of a screenwriter is very important. He doesn't want his script to be changed into a piece of shit, and he will be blackballed again.
When his reputation became bad, his worth dropped.
Xu Qingcheng: "One million is too much. Your script is immature. The most we can offer is 200,000."
When Dai He heard this, he almost spit out a mouthful of blood. Is there anyone who bargains like this? How about investing tens of millions or hundreds of millions? Even buying a script is stingy! What a liar!
…
After some haggling, the script was finally sold for 300,000.
In the contract, Daihe specifically added a supplementary clause that prohibits the use of his signature rights, including but not limited to the use of his name for publicity.
