The Literary Life of a Science Leader

Chapter 101 Film and Television Adaptation
night.

Mu Jingchi studied in the study for 10 minutes. After maintaining his daily study habits and state, he didn't continue. Instead, he stayed on the sofa in the living room and started watching variety shows.

The first stage of the dislocation theory has been broken through, and Mu Jingchi has also relaxed a little, and no longer maintains that high-intensity study and scientific research state.

It's also nice to take a day off once in a while.

The variety show [Happiness Trio] was broadcast on Xiaomi TV. Mu Jingchi didn't follow the variety show specifically, he just randomly chose a show with a good rating.

The main purpose is to relax, not to chase stars.

So Mu Jingchi looked very relaxed and happy.As for whether there is a script in the variety show, this is not within his consideration.

A series of voices sounded.

It was the doorbell that rang.

Mu Jingchi opened the door, and there were two people standing in front of the door, both of whom were familiar.

One of them was Ren Feiying from the studio, and she brought another person here.This other person, Mu Jingchi, has never seen a real person before, but he has seen many in movies and TV shows.

It was the bald brother Shanzheng, Xu Zheng.

"Director Xu, please come in."

Mu Jingchi was not surprised, because Ren Feiying had called in advance to inform him of the visit.He led Xu Zheng and Ren Feiying in.

"It's troublesome, Zao Nao." Xu Zheng picked up the gift in his hand as he spoke, "I didn't know what you like, Dr. Mu, so I bought some fruit."

It is etiquette to bring a gift on your first home visit.

"Director Xu has a heart."

Mu Jingchi understood immediately, and took the fruit.This should be a door-to-door request for something, but it shouldn't be a serious matter, otherwise he should bring more expensive things.

As soon as he walked in, Xu Zheng felt that the inside of the house was much more comfortable than the outside.

As the time turned to the end of March, the temperature in Yanjing gradually rose, and the heating stopped.However, Xu Zheng was still not used to it. He had to wear two more clothes to feel warm.

Naturally, the heating in Mu Jingchi's house was also turned off, but the house was still very warm, making one's body soothed.

Because he ate a lot of hot pot, his throat was not very good, and he always felt that his throat was dry, but after entering this house, his throat felt refreshed.

Sitting on the reception sofa, Xu Zheng looked at the layout of the surrounding rooms, and his mind was full of thoughts.

The simple layout of this house is indeed very suitable for the identity of a doctor.

As the owner of the room, Mu Jingchi poured two glasses of water, one for Ren Feiying and one for Xu Zheng.

Then, he sat opposite Xu Zheng.

"Director Xu must have something to discuss with me this time, right?" Mu Jingchi's gaze first fell on Ren Feiying, and then wandered over to Xu Zheng, without saying too many polite words, and went straight to the core.

Xu Zheng's throat was a little itchy, so he picked up the glass, took a sip of warm water, and moistened his throat.

Hearing Mu Jingchi's words, Xu Zheng took out the book "The Guest" from his bag, "Dr. Mu, I'm here this time to buy the film and television adaptation rights of your novel."

Facing Mu Jingchi, Xu Zheng did not assert his identity and position as a boss.Instead, he addressed Mu Jingchi as you and lowered his posture actively.

His mind is very clear.

He didn't know what Mu Jingchi's character was like, and he had a bad experience in the entertainment industry.Also, Mu Jingchi is now a Ph.D. student at Huaqing University, and he has come into contact with the academic circle rather than the entertainment circle.

The academic circle is naturally higher than the entertainment circle, and he has no way of knowing what the other party has in mind.

More importantly, the novel is written by the other person. If you want to impress the other person, it is always right to lower your attitude.After all, their family conditions are not short of money, so whether to sell or not may completely depend on their mood.

"You want to make a film adaptation?"

Mu Jingchi also had no airs about it. Xu Zheng was older than him and was his elder, so there was no need for that.

"Yes," Xu Zheng couldn't see the change in Mu Jingchi's expression, because the other party had a stiff and cold expression from the beginning to the end, which was somewhat the same as the rumored character expression.

"I discussed with Ning Hao and Huang Bo, and we agreed that your "Novel" is very good, and it is also very suitable for film adaptation."

Xu Zheng's eyes moved to Ren Feiying, "I found your studio, but Miss Ren said she couldn't make the decision, so I interrupted you so late."

Mu Jingchi nodded, expressing his approval of Xu Zheng's statement, and then asked.

"If I sell the adaptation rights to you, how are you going to adapt it?"

As soon as the words fell, Xu Zheng's expression vibrated, which meant that he did not object to film and television adaptations.

So, he took out the printed and sealed document from his bag and said, "This is my analysis of the film and television adaptation of the novel "The Guest". Take a look."

Obviously Xu Zheng had anticipated this situation and had already prepared a countermeasure.

Mu Jingchi took the document curiously. No matter in his previous life or this life, he has never been involved in the film and television industry. Even if he made his debut before, he still took the road of music and dance.

Looking at the document, the above did do a very detailed analysis.

There are also some professional script formats and director shots, and there are some comments prepared for ordinary people, so Mu Jingchi has also read a rough idea.

"The core of the story hasn't been changed? Haven't any extra love lines been added?"

After all, he is not from the film and television industry, and has no experience with related matters. He flipped through the documents and asked casually.

Xu Zheng shook his head, "No, we haven't modified the storyline."

"It's just that I chose a different narrative method for the development of the story. After all, making a movie is different from reading a novel."

Mu Jingchi raised his head, his eyes shifted from Xu Zhengzheng's shiny bald head to Ren Feiying.

"What does Miss Ren think?"

He was not opposed to selling the film and television adaptation rights, but Mu Jingchi was also worried that the adaptation of his novel would be messy.And he doesn't have the time and energy to take care of these things, so it will still fall on Ren Feiying in the end.

Ren Feiying put down the glass water glass in her hand, straightened her body slightly, and expressed her opinion in a serious tone.

"Mr. Mu, Director Xu took the initiative to talk to me about related matters before."

"I think we can not sell the film and television adaptation rights. We will participate in film investment with the script and jointly develop "The Guest"." Ren Feiying directly rejected the plan of selling the film and television adaptation rights.

She wants more initiative.

Mu Jingchi didn't look at Xu Zheng next to him, but stared at Ren Feiying, "Are you confident that you can do well?"

"Have!"

The conversation between the two took place in front of Xu Zheng, and this one-on-one answer was almost a tactful rejection of the plan to sell the copyright.Sure enough, Mu Jingchi's subsequent words proved this point.

"Director Xu, I tend to invest in scripts, this is also to ensure that my novels will not be changed into a mess."

Some things written on paper are just on paper, and they should not be taken too seriously.

But if there is a "Mujingchi Studio" with Ren Feiying at the helm participating in the film project, then it must have a certain right to speak.

In this way, you can try your best to avoid adapting your novel into a bad movie.

"Do you think it is possible for us to cooperate?"

Mu Jingchi was not procrastinating at all, he just opened up the matter in such a conversation.
