  Chapter 34【034】Happy Birthday

   "It's a friend of my mother's friend. She thinks this idea is very good and wants to make this show. Because it's your idea, let me ask for your opinion. Can you sell this idea to her?"

   "Is this also protected by intellectual property rights?"

Zhang Yang is a little confused. He has actually done some understanding of copyright protection in this world. It mainly consists of three parts: patents, trademarks and copyrights. It is very difficult to seek legal protection for a set of ideas without making something. .

  Lin still said: "I don't know too well, but no matter what, this is your idea after all."

   "Did that person say which TV station he wants to cooperate with?"

   "Well... she is from China Satellite TV."

  It is difficult to seek legal protection for creativity, but if the other party is a TV station and is dubbed the word "Huaxia", then the possibility can basically be directly reduced to zero.

  ——This so-called purchase idea should be the rights and interests that Lin Yiran won for him, but she hesitated, and seemed to feel a little guilty.

   Zhang Yang smiled and said: "This is a good thing, anyway, it is to promote ancient poetry, and I have made some contributions that cannot be ignored to promote Chinese traditional culture..."

  Lin was still a little amused. After Zhang Yang finished talking about his contributions, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "How much are they going to pay?"

   "... thirty thousand."

  Lin still hesitated for a moment, and then explained: "Because this program doesn't seem to be easy to make money, so the price is not high."

  Although she comes from a good background, she is by no means ignorant of hardships. Naturally, she also understands the value of 30,000 yuan. It's just such a large-scale program, and it's China Satellite TV. In comparison, 30,000 yuan seems a bit thin.

   Zhang Yang laughed and said: "That's not enough? I just picked up 30,000 yuan for nothing in a few words, and I made a lot of money, okay?"

   smiled again: "You were hesitating just now, I thought you were going to say something, you can just say no to this matter just now, it really... scared me into a cold sweat."

  Lin still whispered: "After all, without your consent..."

   Zhang Yang understood what she meant, even if he disagreed, the other party would probably make this poetry conference, saying that he was asking for his opinion, but in fact it was no different from buying and selling by force.

It would be nonsense to say that there is no displeasure about it, but firstly, China Satellite TV has a big background, and now it is barely a happy place for everyone, so there is no need to find it to be unhappy; With her usual style, it was not easy for her to win the 30,000 yuan, and it must be due to the face of her parents.

  He smiled and said: "Anyway, I can't shoot it myself. It's a waste if the creativity can't be realized, and I earned 30,000 yuan for nothing. Speaking of it, I have to thank you and treat you to dinner another day."

   Before Lin Yiran could speak, he said again: "Is this a contract that needs to be signed? I have been unable to move around recently. If I want to sign it, I can only send it to me, or send the electronic version to my mailbox, and print it out."

  Lin Yiran said: "That aunt is on vacation these few days, and she is in Qingcheng. I will ask her later."

   Zhang Yang let out a "hmm" and was speechless for a while, but he didn't intend to hang up the phone.

   After a few seconds, Lin Yiran seemed to suddenly remember something, "By the way, today seems to be your birthday, right?"

   Zhang Yang smiled and said: "Yes, I just received a call and thought you were calling me to wish me a birthday, but it turns out..."

  Lin still said: "You never told me."

   "Nonsense, you forgot my birthday last year, and I told you specifically."

   "Don't turn black and white."

   Zhang Yang was both funny and angry, "You didn't tell me about your birthday last year, how would I know?"

   "Then didn't I tell you after school started?"

   "It's been so long, how can I remember?"

   "Then why are you calling today?"

"I…"

  Lin still defended with a guilty conscience, "I'm telling you about the poetry conference. I just remembered that today is your birthday."

  Zhang Yang smiled and said: "Well, it seems that even if you don't have 30,000 yuan, it doesn't seem like a loss."

  Lin still didn't answer the call.

   Zhang Yang said: "If it's okay, I'll hang up?"

  Lin still hesitated for a moment, "Yeah—" and said softly, "Happy birthday."

   Zhang Yang smiled again, "Thank you, I'm really happy."

  Lin still said: "Then... I'm dead."

"OK Bye Bye."

   Zhang Yang put the cell phone to his ear and did not move it. After about two or three seconds, the hang up tone came from the receiver. He put down the cell phone, thought for a while, and said to Luo Shen: "What you said seems to make sense."

   Luo Mi said: "What?"

  Zhang Yang felt relieved, it seemed that the memory reading was really only done once, "Didn't you say last time that if you weren't too eager to confess your love, we might be together after graduation."

  Luo Shen said: "It's still too late."

   Zhang Yang didn't answer.

  It took a long time before he sighed and was about to continue dictating, but the phone rang again. When he picked it up, he saw that it was an unfamiliar number, indicating that the place of origin was the capital.

   Zhang Yang's heart moved, he connected the phone, and said "Hello" softly.

  There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and then a deep middle-aged male voice came: "Hello, I'm Li Changge."

  This introduction is quite confident, Zhang Yang has already flashed this possibility in his mind just now, and immediately realized the identity of the other party: the chief director of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!

   "Hi, I'm Zhang Yang."

  Li Changge was slightly taken aback when he heard this introduction, and then said: "Hello, I'm a bit presumptuous, but I still want to confirm that you are Zhang Yang, the author of the song "Linjiang Fairy"?"

   Zhang Yang naturally understood why the other party had reconfirmed, and said with a smile, "Yes."

   "Did you write the poem "Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water"? "

"Yes."

  Li Changge was speechless for a moment, and the shock deep in his heart was simply indescribable.

Just as Zhang Yang had guessed before, the production team did not have much hope for this high-profile solicitation of opening poems from across the country. It is ready to use pure music as the opening song.

  Due to the second reason, Li Changge has received a lot of submissions during this period of time. Li Changge still has people review them one by one. Among them, there are three or two good works. He was quite moved after reading them, but he still couldn't make up his mind to use them.

  The quality is good, but it’s not up to the level of opening credits—if it’s not up to the standard, leaving a little regret might not be another sense of satisfaction.

Just when he was discussing with several other people and basically confirmed that the original decision to keep the opening of pure music unchanged, the assistant brought the song "Linjiang Fairy". This word is composed and used as the opening title.

  After the decision was passed by all, the people who let go of their worries began to discuss the identity of the author again.

Normally speaking, the person who could write the poem "Linjiang Immortal" should not be an unknown person, but among the many experts and scholars present, none of them had any impression of the name "Zhang Yang" in the submission email .

   This somewhat surprised the experts and scholars present, but it is understandable. After all, there are many crouching tigers, hidden dragons among the people, and it is not surprising that they occasionally get good works.

  Li Changge called according to the mobile phone number left in the submission email. When he heard a young voice, he thought it was that flamboyant junior, but he never thought it was the deity.

But he had seen the big scene after all, although he was surprised, he quickly calmed down and said with a wry smile: "Sorry, I never thought that such a desolate word "Linjiang Fairy" was actually written by a young man... "

   Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Understood."

  Li Changge was not in a hurry to get down to business, but asked first: "Let me ask again, how old are you this year?"

   Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Coincidentally, today is my eighteenth birthday."

  Li Changge also smiled and said: "Sure enough, a hero is born as a boy. After discussing with several experts, our director team is very satisfied with this lyrics and plans to use it as one of the candidates for the opening song."

  I believe you ghost!

   Zhang Yang complained secretly in his heart, if the alternative is, do you need to call yourself, the chief director?

  In fact, Li Changge made the phone call himself, and really wanted to express his importance to the original author, but he turned out to be a brat, so he subconsciously changed his words.

   Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I'm very honored."

  Li Changge said: "I am now representing the crew of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and want to buy the copyright of this song, is that okay?"

   Zhang Yang's tone remained unchanged, and he smiled gently: "Impossible."

  Li Changge choked, and quickly asked with a smile: "Submission is deemed to agree to the use of this word by the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" crew at a minimum price of 50,000 yuan. Didn't you notice it when you submitted the manuscript?"

   Zhang Yang laughed and said, "Isn't agreeing to use the same thing as selling copyright?"

"oops."

Li Changge hit a snag, but instead laughed, "Look, I've been so busy these days that I've been so busy and confused... Yes, yes, there is a difference between the right to use and the copyright, so let me ask you a price. "

   Zhang Yang said: "It's better for you to come, I don't really understand this."

Li Changge pondered for a while, and said: "When we called for manuscripts publicly, the minimum guaranteed price was 50,000 yuan, um... so, the one-buy price, 80,000 yuan, bought this song as the opening song of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", what do you think? ?”

   Zhang Yang was a little surprised, thinking that Li Changge would bully him again when he was young, and deliberately lowered the price, but he didn't expect that the other party actually raised 30,000 yuan instead—his original psychological price was just the guaranteed 50,000 yuan.

   But the price is too high, so naturally there is no reason to refuse, Zhang Yang said with a smile: "I have no objection."

  Li Changge said: "Okay, you can send me the card number later, and I will have someone prepare the contract and send it to your mailbox later. You can print and sign it and send it to me. I will type the fee together when the time comes."

   Zhang Yang coughed dryly, and said, "That... can I trouble you with something?"

  Li Changge said: "Say it."

"You can put 70,000 yuan into the card at that time, and the other 10,000 yuan, can you please help me replace it with a mobile phone, just the new smartphone from Hongmeng... Uh, by the way, if you need to report the price , it would be better to say 70,000."
