When Yin Lian heard this suggestion, he was really stunned for a moment. In fact, based on her life experience, it should not be surprising that her mentor would make such a proposal. However, because she was not accustomed to this world, she never thought about it in that direction at the beginning.
But now that her mentor had brought it up, she quickly understood the true origin of her mentor's attentive attitude. This reason was much more normal than expected, and based on the instructor's introduction just now, she also realized that human role models should also be an important resource for the entertainment industry in this world.
Actors are judged by their skills, and their roles are judged by their faces. In a sense, this separation is actually very meaningful. They no longer even have to choose between their faces and their acting skills, although this actually reduces the importance of appearance and actors. The level of influence has allowed the cost of film and television to return to the shooting quality to a certain extent.
At least there are a lot more choices.
The portrait rights similar to the copyright system are also very interesting. Of course, this kind of role model should no longer be called a portrait, but an image. In any case, this copyright-based licensing method is indeed more suitable for this type of income.
But to be honest, she is not interested in opening up her image rights. It’s not because she doesn’t want her image to be used or tarnished by others. If it were a real teenage girl from Earth, she might struggle with it, but Yin Lian knows very well that a person's charm never lies in his face.
Although she said this kind of thing, it was a little bit like she was taking advantage of her and acting like a good girl, but she was really telling the truth.
The reason she didn't want to authorize it was actually because her status as a concubine in this world was unknown. She was afraid that as she became more famous, her lies would be exposed.
But even so, she was actually very interested in this aspect, so she looked embarrassed and said, "Wouldn't that be troublesome?"
Her hesitant attitude actually made the instructor feel hopeful, and he began to introduce this matter to her more enthusiastically.
The so-called registered business image is of course not the kind of registered patent - a registered patent should actually be called a creation patent, while a registered business image is more like an open business image. Because personal image, like copyright, arises naturally, the law only proves it, not establishes it.
In fact, not all characters are extracted directly, and some are designed by people. However, from the perspective of the creation process, designing characters out of thin air is expensive, and the actual performance is not as diverse as direct real-person sampling. Therefore, we still give priority to real-person modeling for most characters. The requirements are special and difficult to Only those who find a shape that meets the requirements in reality will choose to customize it.
But there are also some characters that are difficult to create independently. The creations of nature are so wonderful, and man-made things are ultimately too ingenious in comparison. In the eyes of the instructor, beauty like Yin Lian is a natural image. Even if you describe it like a cat and a tiger, you may not be able to capture 30% of the charm, let alone create it out of thin air.
Xia Guo's director and director are from different families, and the mentor himself is also an industry insider. How can one not be tempted when seeing a shell like Yin Lian with both good appearance and charm? That’s why I didn’t care about the occasion to persuade.
Since she wanted to persuade, she must tell her the benefits, so the instructor said: "Don't underestimate this authorization. Serious commercial movies or TV series, rated according to the image's popularity, appearance and temperament, the price ranges from 10 yuan to 1,000 yuan per minute is variable. Your appearance is very good, and your basic attributes can be rated at the highest level. If it is a TV series, 100 minutes of scenes is equivalent to 100,000 credit points. Although it does not sound like much, if someone chooses to use you If it’s more, the income will be extraordinary.”
One hundred thousand credits is actually a lot. Although it cannot be compared with the stars on Earth, the nature of the two is different. Xia Guo can just sit at home and get this money for nothing. It can really be said that he relies on his reputation to make a living.
Yin Lian is not a person who is short of money, but he cannot say that he is not tempted by such a proposal. Xia Guo has many things she wants to get, and these need to be exchanged for money. Of course she could buy gems in exchange for money, but it would be difficult to explain the source if she sold too much. It would be much more convenient if she had an income that could be put on the table.
But as a stowaway, her origins are actually a bit invisible. Although the satellite is far away, if she becomes famous and others inquire about her, her lies may be exposed, and then she will be in big trouble.
So she thought about it and said, "It's still not possible. I'm afraid of being harassed in the future."
When the instructor heard her give such a reason, she immediately retorted: "How could you be harassed? If you are really being harassed, just apply for privacy protection and sue the harasser directly."
Yin Lian heard what she meant, as if as long as she applied for privacy protection, the police would come to take care of her. This was different from her understanding on Earth, so she moved her eyes slightly and asked in a roundabout way: "But if the character image has been opened, this is inevitable..."
The instructor immediately retorted: "You are an open character. You just sold the copyright of your appearance, and you have not become a public figure. Why do those people harass you? Don't worry, the domestic management in this regard is very strict, so you can safely Make up your mind."
When Yin Lian heard her answer, she finally confirmed her guess. She was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the world would not be considered a public figure after the appearance copyright was released. She immediately felt that there was something to ponder in it, so she continued to ask her mentor a lot of things.
The instructor also answered them one by one, but it gave Yin Lian a general understanding of the legal system in this area.
Simply opening up the copyright of a character's appearance will indeed not make a public figure. As long as the appearance is not used for profit other than image rental, it does not involve private social positioning - if the person is actively engaged in public activities, that is another matter.
In addition, renting copyrights also comes with additional responsibilities.
For example, you cannot use your own image to influence, interfere with, or destroy related works.
But in addition, the copyright owner can also make requirements for the way the image is used, for example, prohibiting nudity, close contact, or negative behavior, or even stipulating that only participating in certain types of film performances-the instructor's recommendation is Yin Lian directly limits the PG rating. Considering her age, as long as she makes this restriction, she will basically not play any embarrassing roles.
In addition, there are various piecemeal rules to ensure that both parties have the rights and responsibilities to maintain the commercial role image.
Yin Lian asked: "To what extent can privacy protection be protected?"
The instructor said: "The highest level can protect the name, and even the name is not allowed to be disclosed. The network automatically clears relevant information."
Yin Lian thought for a while and then said, "Thank you, teacher, but I want to think about it."
The instructor said: "How about this? Tomorrow, I will bring some people over to let you know the actual situation in this area. What about you deciding then?"
Yin Lian asked curiously: "Who is it?"
The instructor said: "I don't know if you have heard of..." He mentioned a few names, and then said, "I will bring people from the image agency and some people who may want to rent your character image. It’s good for you to actually understand this aspect. If you haven’t heard of these names, I’ll pass them on to you, and you can search the Internet for their specific identities and past works.”
Yin Lian received the information from her mentor, went home and checked, and was shocked to find that they were all really big guys.
And the instructor really brought a lot of people over the next day.
Several of them had expressions of astonishment when they saw her, and soon expressed that if she was willing to register a character image, they would be willing to rent the character as the girl image in the play for the highest royalties. The agency also analyzed the current market for her. and her image prospects, she even boasted that she could collect tens of millions of royalties in royalties a year.
"So, the situation is like this." During dinner, Yin Lian took a bite of the dinner cooked by the robot with disgust, and then said to his two brothers.
Yin Changsheng asked: "Do you want to register!?"
Yin Lian said: "I haven't thought about it yet."
Yin Changning suddenly asked: "Can I register?"
His brother and sister immediately looked at him in surprise.
Yin Changning said: "Do they only want girls?"
Yin Lian thought for a moment and said, "That's probably not it... How about I ask for you."
After that, Yin Lian took the initiative to let both parties meet, mainly with the intermediary. As a result, when the other party saw Yin Changsheng and Yin Changning, his excitement was no less exciting than when he saw Yin Lian.
Yin Changsheng and Yin Changning looked very similar, so when Yin Changsheng heard his brother's question, he stopped talking because he felt that it would be enough for the other to sign one of them.
Unexpectedly, the other party was interested in both of them, and said: "You two have completely different temperaments. Even if two people with different personalities look very similar, their usual expressions, demeanor, movements, and hobbies are all the same." Differences, so the muscle memory itself will be very different. Such character images can play completely different roles in the drama, and twins are even better, especially twins with completely different temperaments, which are also scarce resources in movies and TV series . If you are all willing to authorize, I can sell various character combinations as a three-person package... to ensure continuous film appointments."
Yin Changsheng immediately said: "Okay! But I need to see the specific contract first!"
He agreed so quickly that Yin Lian had no choice but to shrug his shoulders helplessly and leave the matter to Yin Changsheng.
This is obviously the right choice.
Although Yin Changsheng did not understand the laws of the Xia Kingdom, it did not prevent him from checking the regulations and fighting the opponent happily. Seeing how readily he agreed, the agent originally thought that this kid would be easier to talk to.
As a result, when I came out of the house, I was completely exhausted.
