What Lin Ping didn't expect was that the boss of Blue Sky Press, Li Changtian, flew to Hengdian early the next morning. Lin Ping had decided to stay at home to read the script in the day and go out to write at night. That was why he met him at home. If not for this, he probably wouldn't have met him.
Without the arrogance of Crown Culture, Lin Ping's Stars Transformation wasn't as dispensable to Li Changtian as Crown Culture was.
Their Blue Sky Press had been established for almost a year, but the competition in the publishing industry was very fierce. They had yet to publish a best-selling book. If this continued, they would go bankrupt sooner or later. At this time, he discovered the book," Stars Transformations ". Although the writing was average, the story was bold and unrestrained. It caused a whirlwind on the Internet. Although he did not know how many copies it would sell if it was published, it would definitely surpass any book they had published.
At this critical moment, Li Changtian had to come personally, hoping to sign the contract. He knew that he was weak, so he lowered his attitude and asked for a 10% share.
Even so, Lin Ping was still very hesitant. Blue Sky Press had only been established for less than a year, and its publishing channels were definitely not as good as Crown. Moreover, choosing Blue Sky would be equivalent to giving up the territory of Chinese novels in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and other places outside the mainland.
Seeing Lin Ping's hesitation, Li Changtian kept increasing the price. Finally, Lin Ping agreed to sign the contract with 50,000 yuan as the signing fee and 15% of the profits.
Of course, Lin Ping wasn't satisfied with the price. If he had let Crown publish it, even if it was only a 4% share, it would be more than this. However, Lin Ping thought that if he cooperated with a big publishing house, he could get more royalties, but at the same time, he would be in a weak position. In that case, he might as well choose a smaller publishing house. That way, he would at least have an equal status. He was willing to take less money.
In the end, both of them got a satisfactory plan. Li Changtian left with satisfaction. Lin Ping also got 50,000 yuan as he wished. He didn't have to worry about his living expenses for quite a while. Lin Ping finally got rid of the stage of working hard for living expenses. He was going to be well-off. It wasn't easy. He had worked so hard for so long before he finally became well-off. It wasn't easy for him!
In the following period of time, while he was studying the script, he also had to complete the Stars Transformation. According to the plan, the entire Stars Transformation would be published in ten volumes, and the manuscript of the first volume had to be submitted within two months.
Lin Ping realized that his memory and comprehension seemed to have become especially good. He could memorize the script after reading it once, and his memories of the past had become very clear. This made Lin Ping happy and painful. He was happy because his memory was good, and many things were easier to do. He didn't have to read the script so many times, and he could understand the main points after reading it once. Lin Ping sighed. If he had such memory and comprehension in his previous life, Peking University and Tsinghua University would have been like playing around. As for getting into an N-tier junior college? However, the problem was that his memory was too perverse. Moreover, he could remember many things that he should have forgotten long ago, including the feeling of wetting his bed when he was young. As long as he thought about it, that feeling would instantly come back, as if he was still wetting his bed.。。。。Tears!
Time flew by, and it was June 1st. Lin Ping had finished copying the first volume of the Stellar Transformations during the long days of waiting for his scenes. After receiving the 50,000 yuan, the first thing Lin Ping did was buy a laptop. It was inconvenient to go to the internet cafe all the time. Then, he bought a mobile phone. After buying the laptop, he had been typing. As for the script, oh my god, he wanted to read it, but the problem was that his brain seemed to have been modified too well by his ex. According to his own calculations, he had at least 170 to 180 Intelligence points. He had already memorized the script thoroughly.
The wooden door was pushed open, and Lin Gang walked in with a big bag of snacks. He shook it and said,"Ping Zi, look what I brought back for you.”
Lin Ping put down his laptop and said,""Gang Zi, why did you buy so many snacks?”
"Don't you know that today is the club's day?" Lin Gang chuckled.”
"Today?" Lin Ping thought for a moment and said," Today is Children's Day, but why did you buy so many snacks on Children's Day?”
"Yes, it's Children's Day!”Lin Gang deliberately emphasized the word 'child'." We have a' child 'here! Shouldn't we celebrate?"
Lin Ping broke out in a cold sweat. Child? Was he considered a child? He couldn't be considered a child no matter how he looked at it! Lin Ping didn't expect Lin Gang to be so speechless.
Seeing Lin Ping's speechless expression, Lin Gang laughed out loud.""Haha, let me tell you, I just went to the set of the Yang family's female generals!”
"What are you going to do? Is there a chance?" Lin Ping asked doubtfully.”Lin Ping remembered that Zhang Da had arranged a role for Lin Gang.
"It's not that I have a chance, it's you!”Lin Gang put down the snacks and said.
"I, I have a chance. How do you know?”Lin Ping asked.
"I've asked the script supervisor. According to the schedule, you might have to report to the set the day after tomorrow!”Lin Gang said with a smile.
"The day after tomorrow? So soon?" In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. In fact, he knew that it was definitely Sister K who took care of him. Otherwise, how could they have filmed together? From his memories, Lin Ping knew that small characters like this usually had to follow the production team at all times. Because filming did not follow the script one by one, but some scenes were filmed together. Therefore, there were often times when they were still filming winter scenes one moment, and the next moment, they had to change to summer clothes to shoot summer scenes, so the main character was still fine. Anyway, it didn't matter what scenes they filmed every day. The hardest part was the supporting roles, especially for a supporting role like Lin Ping who only had one episode. He had to follow the crew every day. He might not have any scenes for a few days, but he had to follow because the director might need to shoot at any time. He couldn't not find someone. Of course, if it was a big shot celebrity, he could ask the director to gather all the tricks together and leave after filming. It was obvious that Lin Ping was enjoying the treatment of a big shot.
The leisurely days were over, and filming was the day after tomorrow.。。
"By the way, have you finished reading the script?”Lin Gang asked.
"I finished reading it long ago!" Lin Ping said confidently.
"Yeah, I didn't buy so many snacks for you to eat alone. Let me tell you, you should give more to the staff, seniors, directors, and so on on when you're on set.”Lin Gang said.
Lin Ping was secretly touched. This was what a brother should be like. He would silently give up everything for you behind your back, but he would never show off in front of you.
Lin Ping was touched, but he still said as usual,""I know. I'm not a rookie. I know all this!”
