Chapter 234 0234, Copyright Issues (2)
The drizzle was like thousands of fine threads, rippling in the air, and the misty water vapor enveloped the entire Magic City Conservatory of Music.
noon.
Yunfeng and Tang Yu held an umbrella and hurried to the school cafeteria.
After eating, he sat down.
Tang Yu casually said, "My editor just sent me a WeChat message, asking me to customize a fan fiction."
Yunfeng smiled when he heard this and said, "What a coincidence, me too."
Tang Yu asked: "Did you agree?"
"No." Yunfeng shook his head and asked, "What about you?"
Tang Yu also shook his head.
Yunfeng said hurriedly: "There is no rush for Fengyun novels, there is no need to do this..."
Tang Yu interrupted, "No, I refused because I really didn't want to write."
Seeing that she was very serious, Yunfeng knew that it was the truth and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If you write a popular novel for him just to get rid of the one-year priority in the exclusive author contract instead of taking on a custom novel with a high fee, then it's not worth it.
This is indeed what Tang Yu said.
The guarantee given by Panda Chinese Network is very tempting. If she makes a living by writing online novels, she will definitely take on this custom fan fiction.
But the fact is, writing online novels is not even a part-time job for her, it's just a hobby.
Besides, she really doesn't have the ability, energy and time.
but……
The topic was not over yet. Tang Yu asked curiously, "Why did Panda Chinese Network suddenly ask us to customize fan fiction? This type of novel has always been unpopular. Is there a market for it?"
Yunfeng thought for a moment and said, "There is definitely a market, and it's huge. As for why Panda Chinese Network suddenly asked us to customize fan fiction..."
Having said this, he seemed to be lost in thought.
Recalling the online novel websites on Earth in my previous life, such as feilu, ciweimao, huanleshuke, etc., they mainly promoted fan fiction.
Seeing that he was in a daze, Tang Yu stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, saying, "If you can't think of it, forget it. Eat quickly, or it will get cold soon."
The temperature in Shanghai in November is not high to begin with, and it rained today.
Yunfeng came back to his senses, smiled slightly, and said while eating: "I think there must be a website that promotes fan fiction that has developed. Seeing that the situation is not right, Panda Chinese Network plans to support its own fan fiction category."
Tang Yu's eyes flashed with doubt, and he couldn't help asking, "What is the point of fan fiction? Is there a sense of immersion?"
Yunfeng smiled and said, “They read fan fiction to see what changes can be made by adding a new protagonist to the original work.”
He paused, organized his words, and continued, "To put it simply, the original intention of fan fiction is to rewrite the plots of the original work that you are not satisfied with, that are not good enough, or that are regrettable. For example, in Zhu Xian, you can write a brand new protagonist and include both Bi Yao and Lu Xueqi."
Tang Yu wrinkled his nose, spat softly, and said, "What are you boys thinking about?"
Yunfeng's expression changed, and he said seriously: "I don't know about others, but I am definitely a dedicated person, and I only think of you in my mind."
Tang Yu's face suddenly turned red, and she buried her head in her food. After a moment, she raised her head again, glared at him, and said angrily, "You...you are not allowed to have such nonsense!"
"Ah?" Yunfeng was stunned at first, then he reacted and said with a smile: "You think it's wrong..."
The words on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back by Tang Yu's angry eyes, and he laughed dryly, "Eat, eat."
Seeing Yunfeng shoveling rice into his mouth quickly, Tang Yu smiled gently, and a faint glow floated across the corner of his mouth.
After dinner, because it was raining and there was no place to walk around or have a date, I planned to go back to the dormitory to rest.
But just as he walked out of the school cafeteria, Yunfeng's cell phone rang. He took it out and said, "It's Editor-in-Chief Hu."
Tang Yu reached out to take the umbrella and said, "You take it."
"I had lunch..."
"Fine……"
"It will be there in about fifteen minutes..."
After hanging up the phone, Yunfeng shrugged and said, "I guess it's because of the custom fan fiction. He asked me to meet and talk about it."
Tang Yu was about to speak when his cell phone rang. He had no choice but to answer the call first. But when he took it out and looked at it, he smiled and said, "Editor-in-Chief Hu, too."
In less than a minute, she hung up the phone.
Yunfeng said casually, "Isn't it because of the custom fan fiction that I want to meet you to talk about it?"
Tang Yu smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Yunfeng just heard her politely refuse again on the phone, so he had to go alone, so he said, "Okay, I'll take you back to the dormitory first."
Tang Yu happened to see several girls from the same class coming out of the school cafeteria, so she said to him, "I'll go back to the dormitory with them, you go quickly and come back soon."
After saying that, he called out the name of one of the girls, put his hands above his head, and trotted over.
----
Zero Degree Coffee House.
This is the place where I met with Hu Guoting.
It takes a long time to go to Panda Building and back, and there is also time for chatting, so I definitely won’t be able to make it to the afternoon class, so I chose the one near Shanghai Conservatory of Music.
The two exchanged pleasantries.
Hu Guoting got straight to the point: "Xiaoyun, is the reason you refused to write custom fan fiction because of the copyright issue of Fengyun's novel last time?"
Yunfeng didn't expect him to be so direct. He smiled faintly and said frankly: "This is just one of the reasons."
Hu Guoting picked up the cup and was about to take a sip of coffee, but Yunfeng's confession just now made him fall into deep thought.
After waiting for a while and seeing that he didn't say anything, Yunfeng said, "Actually, I may not be able to write fan fiction well."
Hu Guoting slowly put down the cup without taking a sip of coffee, and said thoughtfully: "In fact, fan fiction is a trivial matter."
As he spoke, he looked at Yunfeng deeply, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "I really can't do anything about copyright, but if I lose such a good author because of this, I..."
When he saw that Yunfeng did not publish the two comics "Slam Dunk" and "Detective Conan" on Penguin Comics, he already knew that Yunfeng was planning to leave Panda Chinese Network.
He also understood that the seemingly reasonable reason of "taking a break for a while" was actually to delay the priority period of the previous year of the contract.
When Yunfeng heard this, he half-jokingly said, "Not really. I'm actually planning something big. I'm planning on writing a novel that will make me a signed author for a great writer."
Hu Guoting shook his head and smiled bitterly.
It's not easy to achieve an average subscription of one million for a work with more than one million words.
At this moment, it suddenly became quiet and no one spoke.
There was silence for a long time.
Juice and coffee are all sold out.
Yunfeng checked the time and said, "Editor-in-Chief Hu, I have classes in the afternoon. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Hu Guoting opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word. What else could he do?
Of the three novels, two have an average subscription of over 800,000, and the remaining one has an average subscription of over 500,000.
The IP value of each of these short stories is at least over five million.
Yunfeng now has the strength and capital to negotiate with Panda Chinese Network.
And before coming, he also talked to the president about this over the phone.
but……
Since the capital was injected into Panda Chinese Network, major issues like this involving copyright require high-level meetings to discuss.
He sighed softly and could only nod helplessly.
The two of them left, each with their own thoughts.
Thanks to [Pang Jiefen] for the reward of 200 Qidian coins.
