Chapter 319 Can we talk?



Editor-Lemon: Madam, your comic is going to be adapted into a film or TV series. A film and TV company has taken a fancy to this comic and wants to buy the rights.

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little wife anymore: Really?

Editor-Lemon: Really, really, I told you the first time I received the news!

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little wife anymore: ?*??(ˊ?ˋ*)??*?

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little darling wife anymore: Ahhhhhhhhhh, am I going to be famous? So excited!

Editor-Lemon: Um, ma'am, why do I feel like you have no expression on your face while typing this?

I don't want to be Mr. Huo's little wife anymore: (?Д?)ノHow did you know? Did you install surveillance cameras in my house?

Yes, although Lu Ziyao typed to express her excitement and that she was going to be famous, she was actually very calm inside.

Just like what is written in a lyric: Success and fame are not the goal, making yourself happy is the meaning of life.

She originally drew comics for fun, but she didn't expect it to get better and better. Now there are even film and television companies that see the value of her comics in film and television adaptation.

Although it’s not that exciting, it’s still worth being happy about.

It’s like your own child, whose excellence has finally been discovered by more people.

Editor-Lemon: Because you have been very popular on Weibo for a long time, and it was your ID that allowed me to get to know you.

Editor-Lemon: My wife really has a soft spot for Mr. Huo. Her pen name is "Zhihuo." Just Mr. Huo? Oh, you two are so sweet! Even your name is full of love.

Lemon added Lu Ziyao as a friend, so she knew her ID. When Lu Ziyao became a hot topic, she just watched it quietly and didn't dare to tell her friends around her. The first on the hot search list was an author under her.

It doesn't feel good to say it out loud.

And Lu Ziyao would also be unhappy.

Lu Ziyao's comics are impeccable in terms of style, plot, and updates.

Moreover, during normal conversations, one can feel that Lu Ziyao is a gentle person, but she also has her own bottom line.

They have been working together for so long and they understand each other's temper. She will not cross Lu Ziyao's bottom line.

As for Lemon's explanation of her pen name, it does mean that there is only Mr. Huo, and naturally it also means that each of them has one name.

Anyway, there is a hidden mystery.

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little wife anymore: Let me ask, which film and television company wants to buy it?

Lu Ziyao knew a little about it. If she didn't know it, she would completely suspect that Huo Siyan was behind the scenes fanning the flames.

Editor-Lemon: Ruishi authentic products.

Seeing that it was not a familiar film and television company, Lu Ziyao felt relieved. Before this, she had always felt that someone had given her a backdoor.

Because Huo Siyan knew that she drew comics, and soon someone bought the film and television rights to the comics, so it was reasonable to be suspicious.

After all, Huo Siyan is the capitalist herself, so investing in the film and television copyright of her comics is not a problem at all.

The point is, it's not a problem for her.

But it's not necessary.

I just want to see how far I can go with my own abilities.

It’s not like I can’t afford to lose. The worst that can happen is that I can go home and inherit the family business. It’s no big deal!

Therefore, Lu Ziyao does not want to have such backdoor behavior.

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little wife anymore: Oh, how’s the talk going?

Editor-Lemon: We are still in contact. Let me give you a hint first and hear your thoughts.

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little wife anymore: I want to ask Lu Xiaoting to play the male lead, is that okay?

Editor-Lemon: !!! Madam, what are you thinking about? That's Mr. Lu! His schedule is full, not to mention the salary. The comic adaptation probably has a small budget, not enough to hire Mr. Lu, and besides, we can't hire him!

I don't want to be Mr. Huo's little wife anymore: Hmm... Then I want to know if this is negotiated, can I get the screenwriting rights for the comic adaptation? Can I make some suggestions for the comic adaptation and have them adopted?

This is the issue that Lu Ziyao cares about most. Generally speaking, if a work can be adapted into a film or TV series, it is really a great wish of the original author and readers and fans.

However, adaptation does not mean that you can make magical changes, arbitrarily tamper with the characters and plot, or secretly add some new characters. Such behavior is really ruining a work.

Therefore, many people are now looking forward to the day when the film or TV series will be adapted into a TV series, but they are also worried that the casting and plot will be ruined after the adaptation.

There are still concerns from all aspects.

As a family with an actor who has won many awards, Lu Ziyao is also someone who is more familiar with the entertainment industry and is naturally more concerned about these issues.

If her work were to be made into a film or TV series, whether she earned a lot or a little would not be an issue.

The key point is that she must have a certain say in this film and television project to ensure that her work will not be changed.

Of course, not every work will encounter such a situation.

But we still have to take precautions.

Editor-Lemon: To be honest, generally speaking, after a film and television company buys the film and television rights of a work, there is a chance that they will ask the original author to adapt it, but it is not certain. After all, they have their own more professional screenwriters, and in comparison, the author is still relatively immature.

Editor-Lemon: Especially when drawing comics or writing scripts, people are also worried about whether they will write it badly.

It's human nature. People like this comic because they like the value behind it.

Capitalists invest to make money. If they don’t make money, who would be willing to spend that money?

Therefore, a large sum of money has been spent in the early stage, so professional talents must be found later.

Because even if we find professional talents, we cannot guarantee the profit and loss, let alone find an outsider.

All things that are profit-oriented are so realistic.

No matter how well the original author understands the work, he only understands the work, not the market requirements.

That's how it is.

I don’t want to be Mr. Huo’s little wife anymore: If I invite Mr. Lu to join, can we negotiate other conditions?

After all, this is my first film and television work, so I must pay more attention to it.

Some pitfalls should be avoided. There is no need to step into them even though you know they are pitfalls.

Editor-Lemon: !!!! Aaaaaaa, I ate the melon before, awesome!

Editor-Lemon: I know what you mean, just wait for me to communicate with them!

Lu Ziyao couldn't help but smile secretly. She had revealed a little bit of her vest, and the effect was quite good, considering the current situation.

However, you still have to confirm the schedule with the male lead first, otherwise what if you get slapped in the face?
