Chapter 446: The Annual Meeting With Rising Specifications
"What? You think the money is too little? Then tell me a number!"
Mr. Li frowned, his expression slightly hesitant.
The fat man who just introduced them both frowned and said, "Salted fish! One and a half million is still too little for you? How about you give me a try at the same price?"
The hairtail fish on the side looked at Sun Quan with a wry smile.
Sun Quan looked at the fat man, then at Mr. Li who looked hesitant, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, it's not about money, but I have no plans to sell the film and television adaptation rights of my book for the time being. I'm really sorry!"
"
Mr. Li's face darkened, he looked at the smiling Sun Quan coldly, and suddenly said: "Two million! Is two million enough?"
Sun Quan's smile did not change, but he still shook his head, "Sorry, Mr. Li..."
"three million!"
Mr. Li suddenly raised his voice and blocked the second half of Sun Quan's sentence.
Sun Quan didn't know what to say for a moment.
Mr. Li added with a cold face, "Three million is the greatest sincerity of our Jiuzhou Entertainment. If you agree, we will sign the contract. If you don't agree, then we can just forget it."
After saying that, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Sun Quan.
Sun Quan smiled bitterly, and the fat man who was accompanying him suddenly laughed, patted Sun Quan's shoulder with his fat hand, turned to Mr. Li and smiled: "Okay! Mr. Li is very refreshing. Since Mr. Li is so refreshing and sincere,
Then I agree for Xianyu, okay Xianyu?"
When he asked the last question, he turned to Sun Quan.
Sun Quan wanted to ask him - "Who are you?"
By the way, he still doesn’t know who this fat man is at the starting point, so he agreed to it for me in such a big tone? Why do you agree for me?
Of course, before truly finding out the identity of this person, Sun Quan would not slander him in public. After all, he, Sun, still had to make a living at Qidian. If he offended someone who could not be offended, it would be a moment of pleasure, but afterwards
It's not easy to get mixed up at the starting point.
Smiling dumbly, Sun Quan stood up and extended his right hand to Mr. Li. Upon seeing this, Mr. Li chuckled lightly and stood up to shake hands with Sun Quan with a satisfied smile.
"Mr. Li, thank you for your love, but I'm sorry! I really don't plan to sell the film and television adaptation rights of my book now. I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!"
Sun Quan apologized with a "sincere" expression. The smile on Mr. Li's face froze, and the smile on the fat man's face froze as well.
"Salted fish?" the fat man reminded with a frown.
The smile on Mr. Li's face faded, and he suddenly withdrew his hand, snorted coldly, stared at Sun Quan, turned around and left with a dark face, leaving behind the words: "You don't know how to praise someone!"
Another man and a woman quickly followed Mr. Li.
Sun Quan, the fat man and the hairtail fish were left standing there. Sun Quan still had a smile on his face, but the fat man and the hairtail fish had cold faces and lowered their heads and smiled bitterly.
The scene fell into silence for a moment. Sun Quan nodded and said to the fat man: "Leader, if you have nothing else, I will leave first?"
With that said, he nodded again, raised his feet and prepared to leave.
"etc!"
The fat man's voice came from behind. Sun Quan stopped and turned around, looking at the fat man with questioning eyes.
At this time, the fat man's face was a little dark, and there was anger in his eyes as he stared at Sun Quan. The hairtail fish on the side frowned slightly and shouted weakly, "Mr. Fang..."
Hearing this, the fat man glanced at her with an unkind look, so the hairtail fish shrank its neck slightly and closed its mouth.
Sun Quan saw this scene in his eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly. Although there was still a smile on his face, his eyes had turned cold. He wanted to see how Mr. Fang would discipline him.
The fat man stared at Sun Quan with an angry look on his face. After a few seconds, Sun Quan saw the fat man suddenly take a deep breath, the anger disappeared, and he put on an amiable smile. He asked him with a wry smile, "Salted fish, three million is not low."
, why did you refuse outright? Don’t you have trouble with money? Even if you want a higher price, you can say it tactfully, or you can talk to me later and I will help you fight for it! What you said
I'm so embarrassed! It's not easy for us to find such a sponsor for you, right?"
Sun Quan: "..."
This guy's sudden change of attitude was completely beyond Sun Quan's expectation.
What is this for?
Suddenly change your strategy and follow me?
Not even soft ones!
Sun Quan smiled and reached out to the fat man. The fat man smiled and held his hand, "Salted fish! How about I go find Mr. Li just now to help you? If you are not satisfied with the price, I...
"
Sun Quan shook his head, "Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your love, but it's really not necessary. I really have no plans to sell the film and television adaptation rights of my book at the moment, but thank you anyway, thank you, thank you!"
Fat man: "..."
The smile froze on his face again, and the fat man's face turned a little red. It was obvious that he was suppressing his anger. Sun Quan smiled and expressed his thanks again, then nodded to him and the hairtail, said goodbye and left.
Seeing him leaving, Haiyu quickly said goodbye, "Mr. Fang, am I going out too?"
The fat man blushed, pursed his lips tightly, and waved his hands impatiently.
The hairtail was relieved and quickly walked away.
After a while, she caught up with Sun Quan and complained in a low voice: "Old Sun, you are going to die! This is a loss of Mr. Fang's face? Do you still want to hang out? Mr. Fang is one of Brother Qiang's people, do you know that?"
"Brother Qiang's people?"
Sun Quan was a little surprised.
"That's right! Brother Qiang is the boss now, you know that, right? Do you dare to offend his people casually?"
The hairtail fish has a distressed expression.
To her, she was just a small editor, with a low profile at such a huge starting point. If she wanted to gain a foothold in this company, she had to show impressive performance.
And Sun Quan is her top man. If Sun Quan offends Mr. Fang and affects his future future, Sun Quan will suffer a lot himself, but how about her?
It can be said that she and Sun Quan have a mutually prosperous and mutually destructive relationship. It's a bit ugly to say that they are like grasshoppers on the same rope, but it is absolutely correct to say that they are in the same boat.
She didn't notice that Sun Quan's expression relaxed a lot at this time, because he knew that Brother Qiang didn't have much time to take charge of Qidian, and he would have to leave in a few years.
So as Mr. Fang of Brother Qiang’s series, if you offend him, just offend him! At worst, the resources he can get at the starting point in the next few years will be less, but he is a platinum author after all, and no matter how poor the resources are, he still has a
Within the limit, the loss to him will not be too great.
He felt relaxed and was in the mood to comfort the hairtail.
"Beauty, don't worry so much. If you can't survive at Qidian in the future, go to my studio and I will help you make a fortune!"
Hairtail: "..."
She rolled her eyes at him angrily and said, "I wonder if you are addicted to poaching the editor of the website? Last time I heard that you poached the beauty of the Gezi Chinese website, and now you are poaching me again? Can you respect me a little bit?
good?"
Sun Quan laughed, "Why don't I respect you? I'm not poaching you to make you my canary, I'm doing it out of kindness, okay? Do you think that if ordinary editors want to go to my studio, do I want them all?"
"
"Fuck you! You are the canary!"
Hairtail pushed him casually, but she couldn't help but smile. She was obviously not really angry.
When he was about to reach the elevator entrance, Sun Quan suddenly stopped and the hairtail turned back in surprise, "Why don't you leave?"
Sun Quan smiled bitterly, "Beauty, have you forgotten that there is another comic company? Didn't you say that there is another comic company that wants to buy the adaptation rights from me?"
The hairtail was stunned, then raised his hand and patted his forehead, "Ah, if you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. Let's go! I'll take you there now! Follow me!"
With that said, she quickly turned around and led the way.
Sun Quan chuckled and followed.
…
The negotiation with the comic company went smoothly. Sun Quan knew very well how miserable and poor the domestic comic companies were at present, so when the other party offered him 200,000 yuan, he wanted to buy the comic adaptation of his "The Ring of the Immortal Dragon"
When asking for the right, he only increased the price by 100,000 yuan. The other party hesitated for two seconds. After agreeing, the two parties signed the contract on the spot, which was regarded as a formal cooperation intention.
Sun Quan originally didn’t plan to make much money from the comic adaptation rights.
The Chinese comic company is almost struggling now. The painters and painters are not as good as those in the island country, and the storylines and storylines are not competitive.
This company can spend 300,000 yuan to buy the right to adapt one of his books, which is already a big deal.
As far as Sun Quan is concerned, the cost of selling the adaptation rights to this company is a trivial matter. The main thing is to brush up the b-square. If it is revealed in the future, Sun's work has also been adapted into comics.
At the same time, it can be regarded as supporting the development of national comics.
…
At 2 p.m. that day.
The Qidian annual meeting was officially held.
Compared with Qidian's annual meeting, the standards of this year's Qidian annual meeting have been greatly improved.
The venue is larger, the decoration is more high-end, and the level of decoration in the venue is also higher than last year. Even the guests from the Writers Association invited several heavyweights.
Nearly twenty film and television companies, game companies, comic companies, and audio novel companies also came to the meeting.
Brother Qiang obviously wants to speculate on the concept of IP this year. After the annual meeting started, leaders came to the stage to speak. There were official ones, some from the Writers Association, and some leaders from Shanda Literature, Qidian.com, and author representatives.
Third Young Master and others came to the stage to speak.
Sun Quan does not have this honor. He sits in the audience with Dayu, Shenji and others. He does not need to shout 666, but when necessary, he needs to applaud with everyone.
At the meeting, several awards were awarded just like last year. San Shao and others came to the stage to receive the awards, while Sun Quan was still in the audience.
Although he is now a platinum author from Qidian, there are more than a dozen platinum authors from Qidian. Last year he was newly promoted to platinum, and he also won the Rookie King Award, so he was special last year.
This year it won't be so special.
After the awards were awarded, more than a dozen works that had sold game adaptation rights, film and television adaptation rights, etc. were announced.
Among them, game adaptation rights are the most sold.
In other words, Qidian's fantasy and fairy tale works are still being adapted into online games, and major game companies are following suit.
However, film and television adaptation rights are rarely sold here.
Sun Quan sat down and watched with emotion. The capital market is so realistic. After seeing an Internet article adapted into a game and making huge profits, he jumped on it.
In two years, when he sees the success of movies and TV series adapted from online novels, he will flock to them again. Before his rebirth, he once heard that when Internet IPs were the hottest, there were some slightly popular works on the Qidian rankings.
, all kinds of copyrights were snatched up.
Otherwise, at that time, the rights to adapt a web novel for film and television would not easily be sold for tens of millions. It was all capital grabbing to raise the price.
It’s just that the IP concept of online film and television adaptation rights has not yet become popular.
