Chapter 658 Don't understand, will I not understand?
Sitting on the chair in the guest house, Jameson was extremely confused at this time.
This time he came to Dongzhou, originally thinking that according to his own ability, he would be able to complete the task beyond his level.
After all, this is not something too difficult. The author of The Martian is just a young woman with little knowledge.
Although the beginning of the plan was not very smooth, and the woman seemed to have some resistance, in Jameson's opinion, it was not too difficult.
His small actions played a key role. He felt that everything was under his control, whether it was the author named Lu Xiaorong or her husband who seemed to be an entrepreneur.
They may be unwilling to do so, but they have no choice but to succumb and cooperate with Jameson.
Everything was so perfect, everything was so smooth, but when the harvest was about to begin, everything fucking changed!
Malok is here, and that unlucky woman named Jenna, and...
Thinking of this, a trace of helplessness appeared on Jameson's face. He had obviously struck first, but he didn't expect that others would follow him at this critical moment.
asshole!
"Dong dong dong!"
A rapid knock on the door interrupted Jameson's thoughts, which made him a little annoyed, but in the end, he said solemnly: "Come in."
The door opened slowly, with a trace of hesitation on Xiao Song's face: "Mr. Jameson, I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"
Looking at Xiao Song's appearance, although Jameson felt very unhappy, he finally said: "It's okay, Xiao Song, do you have anything to do with me?"
Xiao Song hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Mr. Jameson, I didn't want to disturb you originally, but there is one thing that I think it would be better for me to report to you. Two more people came today. I asked.
After a while, it seemed like they were sent by Foxon to buy the film."
After hearing the news, Jameson's expression suddenly became extremely ugly. He almost cursed. What happened to him? This was a leak in the house and continuous rain.
Damn it, people from other companies are coming, so are people from Foxon Company, which is my company's main rival.
I have issued a military order to my boss, and I must get the copyright of this film. If I lose the copyright of this film, then I am afraid that what awaits me will not be a good fruit...
"Dear Song, thank you for your reminder. If you hadn't brought me useful news so quickly, I think I might have made a mistake."
Having said this, Jameson said: "You can call Malok for me and see if he has time for a drink tonight."
"Okay, I'll do it right now." Xiao Song said in a deep voice: "Mr. Jameson, I don't think you should reveal your identity when you are dating Mr. Mallock."
"Of course, my identity must not be exposed." Jameson said: "This is actually a quite favorable condition for us."
Having said this, Jameson waved his fist and said: "Our opponents are in the dark, and we are in the dark. Hehe, this time, we must take it by surprise and win the adaptation rights at the most suitable price."
Having said this, he said with a hint of ferocity on his face: "It's a pity that by doing this, that bastard will be given an advantage."
Jameson was very resentful towards Shen Lin at this time. If this guy hadn't stopped him, that stupid Chinese woman named Lu Xiaorong would have agreed to his contract.
Once the contract is signed and I leave with the copyright in style, all these colleagues will leave full of annoyance, no matter how generous the conditions are.
At that time, they will become their own background, and their failures will set off their own successes.
The boss will give him a promotion and a salary increase, his colleagues will look at him with envy, and others...
What a pity, what a pity, time does not wait for me!
In the evening, Jameson specially brought a bottle of good wine that he brought from the East China Sea, and then asked the chef in the hotel to cook a few of his favorite dishes according to Xiao Song's instructions, and then invited Malok over. A separate small restaurant.
Maloch's face was not very pretty. Even though he tried his best to hide it, Jameson still felt that the companion he invited was filled with anger.
"My friend, Marlowe, what happened to you today? Who made you unhappy?" Jameson asked in a tone full of concern.
Maloch did not answer immediately, but picked up the wine glass and drank a glass of wine directly before saying: "Who else can make me unhappy except that hateful woman!"
"Hmph, don't let her fall into my hands. If one day she falls into my hands, I will let her..."
Although Malok did not continue speaking, his ferocious look said it all.
Looking at Marlock's appearance, Jameson sneered more in his heart. If you can't even fight a woman, you are a waste.
"My friends, let's have some food first. I think that as gentlemen, we should broaden our minds and not be as knowledgeable as such a woman."
"Brother, you don't know how hateful this woman is. I went to see the female writer today and we have already negotiated the purchase of the film and television rights to The Martian for US$200,000. It can be said that everything went very smoothly."
"The female writer was ready to sign a contract with me, but that damn woman, she rushed out and offered me $250,000."
"She is clearly trying to steal my things, Fake!"
Listening to Maloch's words, Jameson's heart trembled. For two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, this woman named Jenna was crazy.
But in an instant, he felt the courage of this woman. She must have felt the threat from Malok and others, so she directly paid a high price.
In this way, she is the most likely person to get the copyright.
Thinking of this result, Jameson's heart trembled, and he hurriedly asked: "Did the copyright fall into Jenna's hands?"
Maloch chuckled and said: "That woman wants to take things away from me easily, how can I take advantage of her!"
"Hey, I told the author named Lu Xiaorong that her copyright should be at least 300,000 U.S. dollars. I will go back and ask for permission from the superiors and prepare to give her 300,000 U.S. dollars."
"Now the author and her husband hope to sell it at a higher price. I...I will apply for a quota after I have eaten."
"Three hundred and fifty thousand, I'm going to spend US$350,000 to get this copyright back."
"Dear Jameson, you don't understand movies, so you don't know how important a good script is to a movie."
"I feel that if this movie is made, it will definitely become popular, and all the price paid today will definitely be worth it!"
Looking at Malok who was talking and roaring, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Jameson's mouth.
