The benefits brought to Sun Peng by the little magicians and wizards will be realized one by one over a long period of time.
For example, royalties, the first printing royalties will definitely be received within a month, but the rest will have to wait until additional printings; and the dividends from the movie box office will be settled within half a year after the movie is released; as for other peripheral and copyright income
, that’s basically out of the question, most of them are settled on an annual basis.
However, the rewards brought by these two series to Sun Peng are definitely more than tens of billions.
When Little Magician appeared in this world, laobai was a top symbol in the world, so the proportion of royalties that Sun Peng could get was much higher than that of Rowling at first! As for Haggis, Nanhai Film
For cooperation with other industries, the proportion of sharing received is not comparable to that of Rowling, at least in the beginning.
Rowling’s net worth exceeds one billion pounds thanks to her Little Wizards series, but what about laobai?
So not long after the charity auction started, Sun Peng planned to take action.
Before the auctioneer on the stage was about to start, Liu Chang put his cell phone in front of him in time: ""Reporting the Tiaoxi Opera to Friends of Poems", referred to as "Tiaoxi Poems", is a work by Mi Fu of the Song Dynasty...
…Of course, the original version is now hidden in the Palace Museum, and this one should have been copied by future generations."
"Well, so it should be very precious too?"
Blinking his eyes, Sun Peng asked with a smile.
Copied works are not necessarily cheap, this is something Sun Pengcai learned on the way here.
For example, for many great painters or great calligraphers in history, such as Wang Xizhi or Gu Kaizhi, during the thousands of years of historical wars in China, no original works have been handed down at all. Therefore, the copied works of famous artists in the Tang and Song Dynasties are often national treasures.
exist.
Since this calligraphy work was put up for auction, it must be valuable.
"...It's hard to say."
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Chang said with a wry smile: "If the work is copied by a famous artist, it will definitely be valuable, but if it is written by an ordinary calligrapher... it may be worth tens of thousands of pounds, or even one hundred thousand pounds."
As a result of China's developed economy, the collection of cultural relics is very popular.
But also, because the history of this world has changed, the century-old history of humiliation has been reduced by half, and a large number of historical cultural relics that were originally lost overseas or damaged have remained. Things are rare and valuable, and the result of the large number of cultural relics among the people is that these things
The price is not too exaggerated.
For example, this calligraphy work should be written by an unknown calligrapher in the Ming Dynasty. One hundred thousand pounds is really high.
It is precisely because of this that the starting price of this calligraphy work is only 5,000 pounds.
Charity auctions, of course, cannot be compared with commercial auctions.
Sun Peng, who knew what was going on, nodded, looked directly in the direction of the auctioneer, and waited until the auctioneer opened his mouth to start bidding and then raised his placard: "Fifty thousand pounds!"
"Mr. Obai is asking for 50,000 pounds!!"
Seeing Sun Peng raise his hand, the auctioneer's eyes lit up and he shouted loudly.
The protagonist of today's auction is undoubtedly this big shot from China. Because the auctioneer knows that the entire charity auction is organized by Seal Publishing House, and the participants are basically their "connected households", and the purpose is to benefit both parties.
The launch of this book created momentum.
Therefore, Sun Peng's move is undoubtedly the highlight of today.
Fifty thousand pounds, which directly doubled the reserve price ten times!
This is not surprising. After all, it would be too shabby for a protagonist like Sun Peng to only pay 50,000 pounds. So directly increasing it ten times can be regarded as Sun Peng's support for charity... As for this look
The real value of calligraphy works is not that important.
Sure enough, as soon as Sun Peng took action, he immediately attracted the attention of others around him.
After a few rounds of bidding, Sun Peng, who was a little impatient, directly raised the bid to 100,000 pounds and successfully won the "Tiaoxi Poetry Scroll".
Liu Chang naturally had no objection to this, but after the next lot came on stage, he said in a low voice: "Just take a picture of something that makes sense, and you don't need to read the rest..."
"Haha, no need."
Waving his hand, Sun Peng chuckled and said: "I looked at the catalog of the auction items. There should be two more cultural relics of ours. Let's take pictures of them all. They are not expensive anyway. They cost tens of thousands of pounds. Just buy them and put them away.
My family is pretty good too.”
The auction items are miscellaneous, including personal jewelry, watches, etc., as well as front-page collections of classic books provided by the publishing house. It is a dazzling array. But for Sun Peng, he definitely doesn’t want things that have been used by others, which means he is still a little interested in cultural relics.
.
For no other reason than to get them back into the country.
Anyway, the money is not much. If it is really the kind of treasure that costs hundreds or tens of millions of pounds, Sun Peng will naturally shy away.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Chang nodded and said with a smile: "Well, let's do it. I'll take a photo later. I'm your manager after all, so I can't always watch you hold up the sign!"
"Okay, do whatever you want!"
Sun Peng naturally didn't care and nodded casually.
Sun Peng knew very well how much his agent could earn in a year. He was definitely at the level of a first-line star, and getting tens of thousands of pounds to shoot something was not a big deal.
Sun Peng actually had no interest in this charity auction that he had to participate in.
It’s not that deliberate charity or charity with publicity purposes is meaningless. Anyway, in Sun Peng’s view, as long as you actually use the money to do good things, it doesn’t matter what the process is like. Just like Sun Peng takes money every year
When giving a large amount of money to the domestic welfare institution system, they are never required to spend every penny on the children. It is enough as long as most of the money can be used locally.
So while listening to the sounds of the auction site, Sun Peng's thoughts had already flown away.
With the endorsement of a first printing of 100 million copies, the momentum for the new book to be put on the shelves is already strong enough, and Sun Peng is not worried; and the explosive discussions triggered by "The Legend of Laobai Qunxia 3" in major domestic game forums have also made Sun Peng optimistic about next year.
The game will only be released on the market full of expectations and confidence.
So the next focus is on "Avengers"!
Especially when the overseas box office of "Hawkeye" is not so satisfactory, and Sun Peng does not have much confidence in Paramount's upcoming "Thor" and "The Incredible Hulk", "Avengers" is naturally the whole movie.
The highlight of the series!
If it fails, Avengers Pictures will suffer a heavy blow!
Even if everyone insists on continuing this series, the "grade" and "fame" of subsequent movies will undoubtedly fall a lot. But if it succeeds, it will be a different world.
So when everyone in the room was paying attention to the auction items on stage, Sun Peng's heart had already flown to New York and started thinking about his latest movie...
