Chapter 404 Immortal Sword Movie Copyright (Part 1)
In the Yu family villa, Shangjing City.
"Hey, Lao Yu, look at this."
At the breakfast table, Liu Wenshu handed the phone to Yu Zhengdao and added: "News about Zhiqiu's child."
Yu Zhengdao took the phone and raised his eyebrows when he saw the title.
It is the article about "Ye Zhiqiu's money-attracting ability" that has become a hot search topic on Weibo, major self-media and entertainment newspapers have also begun to report on it.
"The analysis makes some sense." Liu Wenshu comes from a financial background, so she can naturally tell whether the logic of this article is accurate.
"I didn't expect that kid Zhiqiu could make money so much." At this time, Liu Wenshu's focus was on another aspect, and she said with a worried look: "It will be very busy, and I think Weiwei will be too, and she will hold a concert for most of the time.
China is finished."
"The same is true for Zhiqiu. The two young people are running around all day long, so they spend less time together."
Yu Zhengdao has a different view on this point.
"It is a good thing for young people to have their own careers, and they have also produced meaningful works. This is the most important thing."
"However." Yu Zhengdao glanced at the huge and strong title on the screen, and said after a moment of silence: "This kind of report may not be a good thing for him."
Liu Wenshu was stunned for a moment and immediately understood what Yu Zhengdao meant. She nodded in agreement, with a look of worry on her face.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them!
To put it simply, others may not necessarily see you well.
Human nature is very complicated. Many people are not stingy with encouragement and kindness when you fail and are down, but when you succeed, they hope for your downfall all the time.
Yu Zhengdao has experienced this situation. When the Xinyu Group developed rapidly, it also experienced a difficult period when it was smeared by competitors and questioned by people who did not understand the true situation.
Even now, every move of the Xinyu Group is still under the "magnifying glass" of many people, and there is no shortage of people waiting for the opportunity to add insult to injury.
The same is true for Ye Zhiqiu. Sometimes criticism is not worth worrying about, but blind praise is the most terrifying thing.
...
Huahai Entertainment, Song Mei is also worried about this.
As Ye Zhiqiu's agent, she knows Ye Zhiqiu's true situation best, and she also knows the danger hidden in this kind of "praising".
Several people walked towards the conference room, and Song Mei reminded them along the way: "Zhiqiu, in this case it is best not to reply to comments on the Internet, so as not to be taken out of context by someone who is interested and cause unnecessary trouble."
"I understand, Sister Mei." Ye Zhiqiu said casually, "I'm sensible, don't worry."
Song Mei nodded, this is the only way she can handle it for now.
When we arrived at the conference room, many people were already sitting there, discussing something animatedly.
Huahai Entertainment CEO Li Wenrui, the head of the film and television department, a group of senior executives, and another group of acquaintances.
My own editor, Shi Nuannuan!
There is also the male science and engineering executive wearing glasses from Chengzi Reading whom we met last time, and several others should also be from Chengzi Reading.
There were nearly twenty people in this large conference room. When they saw Ye Zhiqiu coming in, their eyes suddenly turned over.
"Brother Ye~!" Editor Shi Nuannuan was obviously very happy.
"Hello Zhiqiu." The male executive from science and engineering and other employees of Chengzi Reading also greeted him one after another.
"Nuan Nuan is good, it seems that your face is a little rounder." Ye Zhiqiu smiled and greeted the person reading Chengzi.
Shi Nuannuan was stunned for a moment. His face bulged with anger when he was poked in a painful spot.
I just measured it this morning and it only weighs one pound, okay?
"You guys came so early?" Ye Zhiqiu asked doubtfully, "I'm not late, am I?"
Everyone politely said no, and Li Wenrui smiled and said: "Let's talk in advance and sit down."
Until Ye Zhiqiu sat down, many eyes were looking at him in amazement.
The Weibo post about "Ye Zhiqiu's income" went viral, and everyone could naturally see it.
The sale of the rights to adapt the game "Zhu Xian" took place in this conference room. People at Huahai Entertainment knew that Ye Zhiqiu's novels were profitable, but they did not expect that their ability to attract money would be so terrifying.
According to the current trend of "Zhu Xian" online games, if there are no accidents, it will be popular for at least several years. The income from this is unimaginable...
The same is true for people at Chengzi Reading. In fact, when Ye Zhiqiu chose the "split model", the opinions within Chengzi Reading were not unanimous. Some people still felt that this was more risky.
After all, it’s not bad to just sell it at a good price and settle down. But now, everyone in Orange Reading is “convinced” by Ye Zhiqiu.
This is Orange Reading’s second visit to Huahai Entertainment, and the purpose of this trip is also very simple.
——The sale of the film and television adaptation rights of "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
The popularity of "Sword of Immortality" can be seen by even a blind person. Entertainment companies have frequently contacted Orange Reading and Ye Zhiqiu in the past, hoping to buy the film and television adaptation rights of this IP.
Especially after seeing the popularity of the gamification of "Zhu Xian", these companies became even more enthusiastic.
For Huahai Entertainment, which is determined to develop further in the film and television sector, it is natural that it also sees this opportunity.
The last TV series "Zhu Xian" that I wanted to invest more than 200 million in was not completed. Instead, I filmed a "Diaosi Man" that "used small things to make a big difference", which can be regarded as a half-measure.
But strictly speaking, "Dose Man" is not a serious TV series, it can only be regarded as a short situation drama, and Huahai Entertainment is naturally not satisfied with this.
Knowing that Ye Zhiqiu indeed planned to make "Sword and Sword" into a TV series, Huahai Entertainment once again formally proposed to Ye Zhiqiu the idea of purchasing the film and television adaptation rights.
In business, there are still necessary negotiations and bargaining processes. Although Ye Zhiqiu and Huahai Entertainment are both their own people, they can't just settle things casually.
After all, selling the adaptation rights is also related to Chengzi Reading. Selling a reasonable price is also a respect for Chengzi Reading and the work.
Huahai Entertainment also had no intention of playing the emotional card to lower the price, so the negotiation process went very smoothly.
The least controversial and fastest progressing aspect is the price part.
According to the quotations from many companies that took the initiative to contact us in the early stage, the initial price offered was around 30 million.
Later, the game "Zhu Xian" became popular, and the price of the IP of "Sword of Immortal" also increased accordingly, with the highest offer reaching 35 million.
The price of 3,500 has basically reached the top. If all the companies are invited to bid, the price may rise a little bit, but definitely not much.
In the end, Huahai Entertainment directly offered a very sincere price of 40 million, and the three parties hit it off immediately.
The filming of TV series, actors' remuneration, post-production, etc., these are the real big things.
