Some people still think that there's a problem with the Stars in 2001, but I think that many of the readers at that time were pretty girls, but it doesn't mean that there were no men. Besides, it doesn't mean that pretty girls only like to read love stories. There were no such books at that time, but you can't say that the Stars can't be used just because there weren't any at that time. A good book is nothing more than a few aspects. One is the writing style, one is the plot, and the other is the creativity. Admittedly, the writing style of the Stars is average. However, his creativity and plot were top-notch, weren't they? At that time, the books could become popular with exquisite writing, decent plots, and creativity. Why couldn't the Stars Transformation become popular with ordinary writing, superb plots, and creativity?
Also, you said that most people didn't go online to read novels at that time. That's true. Their goal wasn't to read novels, so the 100,000 clicks made them extremely popular. However, just because they didn't read novels before didn't mean that they never read them. Things that were popular on the Internet would spread quickly. For example, many popular phrases nowadays were like hide-and-seek. Even if you didn't know it at the beginning, it was still popular on the Internet now. Most people would go and read it! Therefore, although most people didn't go online to read novels, it didn't mean that they wouldn't read them!

Lin Ping walked out of the classroom door and strode towards the school gate. Suddenly, a ringtone came from his body. Lin Ping took out his phone from his pocket and saw that it was Sister K's call. He was a little puzzled. Why would Sister K call him at this time? Although Sister K was his agent in name, for various reasons, she had become his agent in name. Lin Ping and his assistant Fang Qing had divided the agent's work, so Sister K basically existed in name only. In addition, she was quite busy herself. She only contacted Lin Ping once a week to confirm her work for the next week.
Although he had some doubts, Lin Ping still pressed the answer button." Hello, is this Sister K? Is there anything?"
"Lin Ping, let me ask you, did you write the Stellar Transformations?”Sister K's voice was filled with anxiety and joy.
Lin Ping was stunned for a moment. Although he was the one who wrote " The Stars ", how did Sister K know? He had never told anyone. In fact, he had no intention of telling anyone. Of course, he did not intend to hide it from anyone. He just wanted to let nature take its course. If no one found out, he would keep this secret until he retired from the entertainment industry ten years later. If someone found out, it was fine to expose it early. It was fine to admit it.
"Why do you say that?" Lin Ping asked. He wanted to know how Sister K knew.
"I just received the news that Blue Sky Press released that your work is in the book 'Stellar Transformation', right?”Sister K asked.
"Yes, I wrote that book!" Lin Ping clenched his fists. He was furious. Although he didn't mind others finding out his identity as an author, Li Changtian did it without consulting him. He felt betrayed. He was furious. He knew that Li Changtian wanted to use his popularity to make the book sell better. But understanding didn't mean forgiveness.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Sister K said unhappily, but Lin Ping's next sentence made her choke." You didn't ask me!”This sentence was indeed a little shameless, but he could not refute it or find any loopholes.
After receiving Lin Ping's affirmative answer, Sister K's thoughts began to wander. She was in a different position, so she had to consider different things. Lin Ping was only thinking from the perspective of an artist and an author. She was not only Lin Ping's manager, but also the CEO of the Tangren Film and Television Corporation. Standing at the height of the Tangren Corporation, she realized that " Stellar Transformations " was an excellent change of script. The creativity of " Stellar Transformations " was already top-notch. In addition, it had a wide readership. If it was changed into a movie or TV series, it would definitely be welcomed. Moreover, this book,"Stars Transformations", was written by Lin Ping. This was another good publicity point.
However, she didn't tell Lin Ping about this. She had to go back and convince the board of directors to agree to the adaptation of " The Transformations of the Stars " into a movie. As the CEO, she could make the decision for most works, but " The Transformations of the Stars " was different. After learning that Lin Ping was the author of " The Transformations of the Stars ", she specially went to watch it. With her sensitivity, she could easily realize that the background of this " The Transformations of the Stars " was very grand. The spells, fighting, and all kinds of strange scenes involved were far from what the previous martial arts films could compare to. The money spent on the background, the actors, and the post-production special effects was a huge expense. Even Tang Ren Company, which was quite powerful in the industry, could not easily spend it. The funds involved were hundreds of millions. This would definitely have to be reported to the board of directors.
However, even if she told Lin Ping about it, Lin Ping would most likely object. With the grand background of " The Transformations of the Stars ", if he did not invest a lot of money, he would not be able to shoot it well. Moreover, it was only 2001, and the computer special effects technology could not reach Lin Ping's heart. Even if he managed to shoot it, it would only be a rubbish drama that would only be scolded. To be honest, the special effects of the Tang people were really average. For example, the special effects of the Legend of Sword and Fairy in 2005 were very crude and failed. It was also a big failure of the Legend of Sword and Fairy.
If he had to film it, Lin Ping would recommend Celestial Bane. The reason why he recommended Xiao Ding's Celestial Bane was because although Celestial Bane was a Xianxia novel, it was actually a martial arts romance drama draped in Xianxia clothing. It moved people with delicate emotions. Although its background was also very vast, it was much inferior compared to Stars Transformations. Moreover, the vast background was drowned out by its delicate emotions.
Therefore, if they were to shoot Celestial Bane, the magic, fighting, and various strange scenes involved would be much more grand than those in Wuxia films, but it would be much simpler than Stars. It would cost much less money, and the production scale would be much smaller. As long as they could accurately grasp the delicate emotions, even if the magic, fighting, and various strange scenes involved were inferior, they would still be successful. It was a more suitable choice for the current Tang.
"This is a good thing. If something like this happens in the future, remember to tell me!”Sister K took advantage of the situation. Anyway, she only called today to confirm it, not to denounce her.
"I know. I'll definitely tell you in the future!”Lin Ping suppressed his anger and said. His voice was abnormally calm, so calm that it made people panic.
After hanging up the call with Miss K, Lin Ping's mind was spinning. He thought about a lot of things, but at least he was sure of one thing. His cooperation with Blue Sky Press and Li Changtian might end with Stars Transformation. Although it seemed to be a small matter that was beneficial to Lin Ping, Lin Ping was thinking more about the first time he made a decision without discussing it with him. There might be a next time. This time, it was beneficial to him, but what about the next time? Who could guarantee that Li Changtian wouldn't betray him next time?
The safest way was to control everything himself. He could either open his own publishing house or buy one. Although he couldn't buy or open a big publishing house with his current money, he could still open or buy a small publishing house. The most ideal way was to buy one. Although the small publishing house was small, it had the connections and connections that should be there. Lin Ping didn't need to spend time on building connections. As for the publishing house being small, it was not a problem. As long as there were those good books in Lin Ping's mind, then the rise of the publishing house was only a matter of time.
And the biggest advantage was that he wouldn't have to be exploited by others if he had a publishing house. All the money he earned would be his own.
Ah!
