Chapter 352: Chapter 331: Chu Kuang’s Fans Break 100 Million_1
“Professional Chu fanatic online.”
“Dedicated to Chu adoration for a hundred years.”
“Opened his mouth and began praising Ol’ Chu.”
“…”
Shen Jiarui’s nickname as “Chu praiser” is now known all over the internet.
Even some internet users, who also praise Chu, follow and praise him in the comments, obviously seeing Shen Jiarui as their spiritual leader.
In his comment section, many people are using the three words Shen Jiarui previously used:
“Who else?”
Shen Jiarui responded with a cheering emoji.
Chu Kuang’s “Who else” has gained popularity through Shen Jiarui’s promotion.
It is the third day since the release of “Murder on the Orient Express”.
And in these short three days, the sales of “Murder on the Orient Express” have exceeded ten million!
The booksellers once again witnessed Chu Kuang’s terrifying book sales capability!
Meanwhile.
The number of Chu Kuang’s tribe fans is also steadily marching towards the 100 million mark, and it is estimated that it will reach that milestone in the next few days.
Obviously, this is largely due to the success of “Murder on the Orient Express”.
This work has successfully conquered many traditional mystery enthusiasts!
Because Poirot in the book is very popular, there are also fans who are good at painting. Based on the character image description and character introduction of Poirot in the novel, create some portrait paintings of Poirot-
Some are realistic.
Some are cartoon-like.
The appearance of these virtual character images of Poirot represents the readers’ love for Poirot and widespread attention.
At this juncture.
There was news that several film and television production companies had the idea of purchasing the film and television rights of “Murder on the Orient Express” and had contacted Chu Kuang’s agent on this matter.
This has stirred up the expectation of many readers, even to the extent of eagerly looking forward to it!
In fact, on Earth, “Murder on the Orient Express” has been adapted into film several times.
This is naturally a very suitable work for film and television adaptation!
Inside the comic studio.
Jin Mu asked Lin Yuan with a smile:
“We’ve accumulated a lot of copyright inquiries, should we consider handling some of them?”
Indeed, some companies are considering adapting “Murder on the Orient Express” for film and television, but not just this one.
The copyrights inquiries Jin Mu is referring to basically include the ongoing manga “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” and the eight stories of “Ghost Blows Out the Light”, and some even want to buy the rights to “Zhu Xian” along with the latest “Murder on the Orient Express”.
People have been asking about things related to film, television, animation, etc., but Lin Yuan has always kept his mouth shut about this.
The reason for not loosening up is simple.
Lin Yuan is afraid that his work will be ruined if it’s adapted.
It’s too disrespectful to struggle with copyright issues.
Although Lin Yuan loves money, he’s not particularly short of it, so Lin Yuan asked Jin Mu to investigate these companies.
If the film and television company that made the inquiry has a good reputation, he is willing to sell the copyright.
“Have you investigated?”
“It’s clear now, some companies are trustworthy, for example, the company that wants the production rights of ‘Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma’ is the third-ranked animation production company in Chu Province. Their level is considered first-class in the circle, and they also offered a lot of money.”
“Hmm.”
“There is also this TV drama production company called ‘Time Production’, they want to buy the copyright of ‘Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Ancient City of Jingjue’. This is the first story in the Ghost Blows Out the Light series, so there are the most requests for copyrights. The contract signed with our company can stipulate the director and actors. They are all teams with fairly strong abilities in the industry and can ensure to the greatest extent the seriousness of the television drama shooting.”
“…”
Following the communication between Jin Mu and Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan decided to sell some copyrights.
However, he made a rule that the copyrights he let out must have a time limit.
In the past life, the author of the “Ghost Blows Out the Light’ series didn’t make much money because of copyright issues, even though the film and television adaptations of his work were very popular. The specific reason can be found on the internet.
Therefore, Lin Yuan is very careful when it comes to letting out copyrights.
For example, “Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Ancient City of Jingjue”, although he plans to sell the copyright, he only gives three years.
During these three years, the purchasing company can film it into a television drama.
Whether they film it or not, after three years, Lin Yuan will take back the copyright and the company will not be able to shoot again unless they buy the copyright from Lin Yuan again.
Of course, the animation production rights of “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” can also be sold accordingly.
This manga was originally about to end, and continuing with an animation is a good choice.
Also planned to be released is “Murder on the Orient Express”.
The only one that no one seems to want to buy is “The Murder of Roger Ackroyd”, but this is a problem with the work itself, not a problem with Chu Kuang.
It’s apparent.
The charm of this “The Murder of Roger Ackroyd” lies in the textual Narrative Trickery, which is more interesting to read in a novel.
Therefore, on Earth, there is a saying, “Agatha Christie wrote ‘The Murder of Roger Ackroyd’ many years ago, but it took film companies several decades to figure out how to make it into a movie”.
“You go negotiate the specific price.”
Lin Yuan delegated this task to Jin Mu.
As long as the price and conditions are satisfactory, just bring the contract here for Lin Yuan to sign.
The total of these copyright fees has already exceeded one hundred million!
In addition, Lin Yuan’s current annual income is also easily over one hundred million!
With the increasing number of works under his three pseudonyms, Lin Yuan’s income is becoming more and more horrifying.
“It seems I need to be a bit more expansive.”
After reckoning how much money he could get from selling the copyrights, Lin Yuan decided to play more freely in the future and make better use of the system to improve the quality of his works.
For example, films.
Why not use all those props that assist in making films better?
After all, props that cost hundreds of thousands, or even millions, are trivial compared to Lin Yuan’s current income.
Lin Yuan is consciously adjusting his mindset.
This is probably related to Lin Yuan having read a lot of books recently with the help of the system’s energy potions and other props.
Having read a lot of books, he feels that his insight has improved a lot and he is no longer as petty as before.
After changing his way of thinking, Lin Yuan did the following things:
Increased Jin Mu’s salary.
Increased Luo Wei’s salary.
Bought a gaming cabin and other fun things for his home.
Increased his sister’s pocket money.
Changed a better car for his sister.
And…
On second thought, it seems that he didn’t just do a few things, basically all related to spending money.
“A problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.”
When Lin Yuan watched movies before, every time an actor said this line, he always felt it was too fake, but now he has a bit of understanding of this sentence.
After all, any of Lin Yuan’s three pseudonyms, when singled out, has a considerable income.
Even if the least noticeable, Shadow, relying on the serialization of “Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma” and the subsequent layoff of royalties, can easily earn tens of millions a year.
Thinking like this.
Lin Yuan suddenly received a system prompt:
[Ding dong! Congratulations to the host for completing the task of having 100 million fans on Chu Kuang’s account, reward: one Silver Treasure Chest, three Bronze Treasure Chests!]
