He opened the drawer, took out the cigar box, took out a cigar, played with it, and lit it.

Sun Quan was really disappointed with Dong Bao's screenwriting ability. He was asked to adapt the script from a novel about dads, and he was able to whitewash the heroine who abandoned her husband and son in the first episode...

In this regard, Sun Quan wanted to say: You are so good at washing, you should really advertise for Liby washing powder.

With such a mind, Sun Quan dares to give "This Dad Is Unusual" to him, Dong Bao, to adapt?

It's such a fun thing to do at the beginning, but I don't know how many tricks it will do later on.

yes!

He, Sun Quan, can always make suggestions and often point out problems.

But if there are too many problems, then it would be better for someone else to adapt it himself!

Since he wants to hand over the script adaptation of this book to others, doesn't he want to be more relaxed and comfortable?

Therefore, Sun Quan thought about it and felt that this script could not be written by Dong Bao.

You still have to find someone with clear enough ideas and strong story-building skills to write the story.

As for...who to look for?

He doesn't know any professional screenwriters in the film and television industry. Apart from Dong Bao, the only one he knows well is Lao Wu, the screenwriter of "Dead Man's Last Wish".

But Sun Quan had no intention of looking for Lao Wu.

There are many reasons. For example, Lao Wu is currently working on the script for the third season of "Dead Man's Last Wish" and has no time.

For example, Lao Wu is a bit arrogant and difficult to deal with. Sun Quan wants to be prepared for both situations and does not want his Xianyu Film and Television to have to rely on Lao Wu as a screenwriter.

He didn't know anyone else who was a professional screenwriter, but he knew a lot of masters of story writing in the online literary circle.

Every year at the Qidian Author Annual Meeting, well-known authors and great masters in the industry are almost always present. Many of them are very familiar to Sun Quanquan. At every annual meeting, there are many people who take the initiative to propose a toast to him.

But now he has a higher vision and does not want to find authors who are not strong enough to write the script for his book.

As soon as he was halfway through smoking a cigar, Sun Quan had a candidate in mind - Dayu.

Dayu, the great platinum god who wrote "Legends of Jia Ding" and became a god.

Dayu's writing style and story structure skills are first-rate.

Before writing "Legend of the Housekeeper", I also wrote urban works, and the popularity and reputation were also good.

In the original time and space, after "The Legend of Jia Ding", Dayu really became a legend. Year after year, Dayu never published any new books amid the expectations of countless book fans.

In the current time and space, under Sun Quan's persuasion, Dayu wrote two more novels after "Legend of Jia Ding".

The previous one was okay, and the update speed was acceptable, but the recently serialized book took almost two years to write, and it only has a million words. It can no longer be described as slow writing. This book, Dayu, is broken every once in a while.

A few days later, at first, his fans were dissatisfied.

But slowly, these book fans have gradually become accustomed to Dayu's update frequency.

Occasionally, when Dayu updates two chapters a day, those book fans will even rush to tell each other, and they are so moved.

Of course, book fans will be used to him, but various data will not be used to Dayu.

In the past two years, Dayu's book has been ranked very disgracefully on monthly votes lists, recommendation lists, and other lists.

Sun Quan even talked to him several times in private about this matter.

But he is too Buddhist and doesn't care about rankings. He just says he is busy with work and can't spare time.

What else can Sun Quan say to this?

It seems that in this life, Dayu still thinks that work is more important, and writing still has to take a back seat for him.

Fortunately, it doesn't disappear like in the original time and space.

Sun Quan wanted to ask Dayu to write the script adaptation of "This Daddy Is Unusual".

First, he believed that Dayu had this ability.

Secondly, he and Dayu had a good personal relationship. If Dayu stopped writing novels in two years like he did in the original time and space, then they would definitely have fewer topics to talk about in the future, and they might become estranged over time.

Sun Quan didn't want that.

He thought that if Dayu could be brought on the boat of Salted Fish Film and Television, their friendship would last longer.

In the Internet literature circle, he seems to know a lot of great writers and writers, but he has very few close connections with them, and he doesn't want to lose any of them.

As for Dayu being very busy at work? I’m afraid he doesn’t have time?

Sun Quan thinks this is not a problem, because writing a script is much easier than writing a long series of online articles, at least there is no pressure to update every day.

As long as Dayu is willing to take over the adaptation work of this book, he can arrange his time freely. When he is busy, it is okay not to write for a few days. He can write more when he has time.

Seeing this, someone may ask - "Since the time can be arranged in this way, why can't Dayu write a few more chapters of the novel when he is free? If he can write a script, why can't he write a novel?"

At first glance, this seems correct and quite reasonable.

It's actually a fallacy.

Why?

Because for a long serialized online article, the later it is written, the higher the requirements on the author's status. One of the most important points is that the author is required to be able to catch up on the thoughts and status before the entire book every day.

And this is difficult.

But adapting a script based on an original work is different.

Because the script is adapted based on the plot of the original work, the creative requirements for the screenwriter will be much lower, and the requirements for the screenwriter's thinking and state will also be much lower.

This is a bit like the difference between writing an essay and reviewing it.

Take a pen and point it at a blank composition text to look for ideas and states. Obviously, writing a composition is much more difficult than reviewing a composition.

Therefore, Sun Quan felt that it was okay to leave this job to Dayu, who was busy with work.

If you squeeze out a little time every day, you'll be able to do this job in no time.

Just do it if you think of it.

Sun Quan immediately logged into QQ and sent a private message to Dayu.

"Coming out to pick up guests!"

Unfortunately, Dayu didn't seem to be online at this time. Sun Quan waited for a while but didn't get Dayu's reply.

After lunch, Sun Quan returned to the office and logged into QQ, only to see that Dayu had replied to him a message when he went to have lunch.

——"Is she a beauty? Friendly reminder, if you are not a beauty, I will not accept you!"

Sun Quan curled his lips and typed a reply: "You want to eat shit! If there is a beautiful woman, I will fall in love with you. What else is your business? Are you there? If so, come out and chat for a few cents!"

This time Dayu's reply was not slow.

He quickly replied: "One yuan per sentence. When you see my reply, you already owe me a yuan. How many cents are you talking about? I am platinum! A few cents is nothing to talk about!"

At the end, he playfully added a smirking emoticon.

Sun Quan rolled his eyes and threw over a 5 cent red envelope.

Then he quickly typed a reply: "You can throw it away! I heard that you only need one yuan to make a debut, but you still want one yuan for a sentence after chatting all day? Just fifty cents! Let's chat for half an hour!"

Dayu came back with a picture of a bloody dagger.

Maybe he was still angry, so he was sent another bomb and a grenade.

Sun Quan sent a picture of contemptuous expressions.

Then he sent me a sentence: "Let me tell you something serious, help me get a script, and you will be paid to write it yourself!"

Dayu first sent a string of "???"

Then he asked: "Are you kidding me? I am a novelist and have never written a script before. You are asking me to write a script? Are you sure you are not hiring the wrong person?"

Sun Quan replied: "Who is born to write a script? There is a first time for everything! How about it? Do this for your brother?"

Dayu: "What the hell are you thinking! I'm very busy with work. I'm already very tired when I occasionally take some time to code, but I still want to help you write a script? Let me tell you this! Even if you help me warm my bed every day, I won't

I won’t consider it, hehe.”

Sun Quan pouted.

My heart said: You are thinking shit! You want me to help you warm your bed? You are platinum, but I am not platinum?

"I'm not asking you to write an original script. Just help me adapt "This Dad Is Unusual" into a script. The reward..."

After writing this, Sun Quan thought for a while and wrote a price of "five hundred thousand".

This price is very high.

Even a professional screenwriter who writes an original script may not be able to sell it for such a high price.

In today's Internet literature circle, there are many film and television adaptation rights of the works of great gods. Even if they are offered for 500,000 yuan, no one will buy them.

Sun Quan was willing to offer Dayu such a high price.

Friendship is one aspect.

On the other hand, I feel that Dayu’s fame is worth this price.
